A happy 2026 to you and yours. Welcome in a day full of college football. Sun shining in South Florida, not so much in Pasadena. Kirk Curb street still on his hat for the last 45 minutes, but this is hat number two.
- [03:09]
Jonas Knox
Yeah, that's hat number two. But apparatus number three, he had a blue towel, some random blue towel covering up his head. And then he went white hat that I saw. And now he's got a gray Rose bowl hat. And it looks like. Not Reese Davis. It looks like he's wearing the trench coat that Robert Stack wore on Unsolved Mysteries. So there is, there's all sorts of stuff going on there. Nick Saven clearly wearing a jacket that isn't his.
- [03:41]
Richard Sherman
He's wearing.
- [03:41]
Dan Beyer
Yes, true. Should I wear this Nike pullover over my turquoise $10,000 suit?
- [03:48]
Jonas Knox
Just nobody checked. The weather forecast is nobody. Is nobody paying attention to, like, what's, what's happening?
- [03:54]
Dan Beyer
Why does it say Stanford track on the sleeve like that? Doesn't make much sense. Why, why, why is Kirk Herbstreak's dog taking a water slide down section 12 at the road?
- [04:03]
Jonas Knox
That is something.
- [04:04]
Dan Beyer
There he goes sliding into the water.
- [04:06]
Jonas Knox
Imagine Herb Street's dog walks into frame and just starts shaking himself out in front of the Indiana helmet.
- [04:15]
Dan Beyer
Oh, all over my Stanford track jacket. That's a soggy one at Pasadena. But we are based in Southern California and I can tell you this, the heaviest rains are going to move out by kickoff. It may not be sunny, it may not be clear, but there may not be as much precipitation as we would have thought for the Rose Bowl. So I think that's good news for Indiana and Alabama as they play later on today.
- [04:39]
Jonas Knox
Yeah, it won't be quite as sloppy.
- [04:41]
Dan Beyer
No.
- [04:41]
Jonas Knox
And you know, you'd assume they'd have all that figured out. And look, I. Look, Alabama fans like to travel. I, I do. I do recall working in South Carolina back in 2009 when they were in the Rose bowl against Texas for the national championship game. And I just remember how excited Alabama fans were with this travel package they got hooked up with where they would fly into San Diego and then rent a car and then go to the Rose Bowl. And I said, are you familiar with traffic for a 5 o' clock kickoff at the Rose bowl from San Diego to LA? Are you? Who sold you that dummy?
- [05:20]
Dan Beyer
Geography is a lost art, okay? It truly is. Like, I love maps. I know you love maps as well. I love Knowing where cities and states are. I had a cousin once tell me that she had business in San Francisco and she wondered if I had time to get together. What, like a full weekend? Because that's what it's gonna take for me to get from here in Los Angeles to San Francisco. Like, that's what it is.
- [05:43]
Jonas Knox
Just right up the five. Yeah, don't worry about it.
- [05:46]
Dan Beyer
Listen, we're not the Twin cities. It's not St. Paul and Minneapolis. I could just drive to your place. Not how it works.
- [05:52]
Jonas Knox
I don't think people realize how far away things are in California. Like, if you go, like in any other part of the country, if it's like, hey, how far is that? 20 miles? 20 minutes? 20 miles in California, you may as well be driving to the Sudan. Yeah, you can't get there. It's not happening.
- [06:08]
Dan Beyer
Like switch. Switch. The app, it says walking. No, it says driving. That is. That is the route.
- [06:12]
Jonas Knox
You cannot get there.
- [06:13]
Dan Beyer
That's. That's what we're going to have to take.
- [06:15]
Jonas Knox
Yeah, it's impossible.
- [06:16]
Dan Beyer
There are Indiana fans here. We'll talk about the mystique of the Rose bowl coming up. Even more so in about 20 minutes or so. There's a mystique about Aaron Rodgers, and the question is now is how long will that mystique last? I do think in advance of the Sunday night game between the Ravens and Steelers, Jonas, that with all that's being said for what's at stake, it has been a pretty good season for Rogers.
- [06:41]
Jonas Knox
I would agree. Yeah, I totally agree. I mean, definitely better than the Jets. Like whatever you. Whatever you call that experience with the Jets.
- [06:47]
Dan Beyer
Absolutely.
- [06:47]
Miller Lite / Tire Rack Advertiser
Right.
- [06:48]
Dan Beyer
Like, even the. Even the second year when he played was such a complete mess with Salah being fired. We know the first year, the run out, the injury on the fourth play. The worst part about that then was all the rumors of when Rogers is going to come back. But none of his tenure was good in New York. And so for Aaron Rodgers to go to Pittsburgh and be battling for a division title in week 18, I think is something he would have taken day one and signing on the dotted line saying, yeah, I would take that. I don't think your expectations would be more than that. And there are a heck of a lot more than what he had to deal with the last two years with the Jets.
- [07:24]
Miller Lite / Tire Rack Advertiser
Yeah.
- [07:25]
Jonas Knox
If you just told him back in August, hey, one game to win the division final week of the season in.
- [07:32]
Dan Beyer
Yeah, who wouldn't want that?
- [07:33]
Odoo Advertiser
Right?
- [07:34]
Jonas Knox
Yeah, of course. I mean, and look, we talked about earlier, we don't think it's going to last long if they win. But I still, I would agree with you that it is. It has been a successful campaign and who knows, I mean, according to Aaron Rodgers, maybe there's going to be some options out there and maybe there's going to be part, potentially an Act 2 in Pittsburgh or somewhere else after this season.
- [07:54]
Aaron Rodgers
I mean, I'm thinking about this week, but obviously I'm 42 years old and I'm on a one year deal. So you know what the situation is. Whenever the season ends, I'll be a free agent. So that'll give me a lot of options if I still want to play. I mean, a lot of options. But there'll be options, I would think maybe one or two if I decide I still want to play.
- [08:14]
Jonas Knox
But I, yeah, so there's going to be some options out there.
- [08:18]
Dan Beyer
Rogers is never. And we can get into the options in a second. So Rogers has never held back in anything that he's.
- [08:24]
Jonas Knox
I said I thought we were going to play the CBS drop after that.
- [08:30]
Dan Beyer
Hardy and Bert Kreischer. By the way, we may have more coming up later on in the show, so you may want to, you may want to stick around, come to the.
- [08:37]
Jonas Knox
Conclusion of Jason Aldean.
- [08:39]
Dan Beyer
Is that here little big town, the Rogers, speeches, interviews, everything that he's done, you've always been his truth. He's never held anything back. And what I find interesting is if this was any other quarterback, like in a situation, like if TUA is asked about the same thing about his future, if it was Kyler Murray or like they're giving coach speak answers. They're giving answers that have soft landings. For the most part. This is a pretty like hard landing. But it's not a hard landing because we know the situation. He's 42 years old, the Steelers want him back, yet he's openly talking about the different options that he has. So that's what's so unique to me about this is we think that say the TUA era is over in Miami, we think that the Kyler Murray era is probably come to an end in Arizona. But if you were to ask those guys or talk to those guys, you know, nobody is saying like, yeah, I'm probably on my way out. I'm looking different teams that they could trade me to. But that's essentially what Aaron Rodgers is saying is I'm a free agent, there's going to be options out there, one of which could be Minnesota. Considering how bad that quarterback room was this past year. I mean, taking nine out of the equation. Yeah. Keeping J.J. mcCarthy in, but leaving nine out because nine had nothing to do with any of that mess.
- [10:02]
Jonas Knox
What's the matter with you?
- [10:03]
Odoo Advertiser
But.
- [10:03]
Dan Beyer
But Rogers have just like, openly saying, like, I don't know what's coming back doesn't even come off as leverage. And so it's. It's so unique to hear him just to spe freely like that, because the 31 other quarterbacks about their situation, if they were in a similar contract situation, wouldn't be talking like that in the NFL.
- [10:19]
Jonas Knox
No. And I think he's. And you could say whatever you want about him and, and the way he handles the media and the way he handles conversations and, you know, whether he's passive aggressive or like, whatever term, whatever you want to label him as, I also think that he's very in the moment, and I think he's very present. And I think that's one of the things that he. Because he talked about this after he won his super bowl in Green Bay, that he remembers sitting on a plane, he's next to the Lombardi Trophy and kind of looking around going, is this it? Like, is that like, it was built up and built up and built up, and he finally got it, and he was expecting it to be more. And I think that sort of changed because Kevin Durant said the same thing before CBS cut him off. Kevin Durant said the same thing, and I think it was kind of like, you know, I worked my way. I had to win a championship, I had to do this. I go and join the Warriors, I finally win a title, I won another one. And it's like, is that it? And I think. I think Rogers, at this stage in his career is so present because I think he realizes this, this could be it. And I think I'm going to be okay with it, but if there's options, I'll take those options. And I just think it's a really kind of a refreshingly honest approach to what could be the final game of a Hall of Fame career.
- [11:38]
Dan Beyer
Did you get the sense that Tom Brady was chasing the 8th after he won the 7th with Tampa? Like, the next year he was back for another Super Bowl.
- [11:45]
Jonas Knox
I just think he was trying to get away from his wife.
- [11:47]
Dan Beyer
That could have been. That could have been it.
- [11:49]
Jonas Knox
And, hey, let me tell you something. Hey, Tom, we're working too, buddy. So don't worry. Don't worry. Happy New Year.
- [11:57]
Dan Beyer
His wife said, can do jiu jitsu in 30 minutes. I got the sense that Brady was always chasing that next Ring. Because, heck, he said it himself, like, what's your favorite one? The next one. It's very cliche. It's a great catchy line to show your determination. But I do think that he wanted to put the super bowl record so out of reach that nobody would touch it. And in this day and age of everything is built on championships, more so in the NBA than anywhere else but the NFL as well. Listen, we've criticized Aaron Rodgers for only winning one. We've criticized Drew Brees for only winning one. We've criticized Sean Payton for only winning one and having these opportunities, but it's not about that for Aaron Rodgers. So for Aaron Rodgers to go in and have a nice season and, and enjoy the season and enjoy being around Mike, Tom and Tomlin and winning games and playing football, that's okay. Like, that's okay. If he wants to go to Minnesota and maybe try to stick it to the pack again, I don't know. I don't know Packer fans would feel about that. Or if he just feels the situation is better, maybe he wants to throw to better wide rece, feels maybe offensively he could do more in Minnesota. Look at that option. That's okay, too. Do we think the Vikings are going to win the super bowl next year if they have Aaron Rodgers? No. So this is, this is all okay if Aaron Rodgers wants to do that. And I actually feel it's refreshing. I didn't think he was going to come back next year, but for how well, and I use air quotes, that things have gone with Pittsburgh and they haven't even won the division or clinched a playoff berth, I think there's enough there for Rogers to be like, yeah, I could probably do this for another go around.
- [13:31]
Jonas Knox
Yeah, if he does come back, I think it's more likely it would be Pittsburgh. I think he's comfortable there. And that's if, you know, if he decides he wants to come back and he decides that's how he wants to play this thing out, I think it would be Pittsburgh. I also think that the best thing that happened for his relationship with the packers was his time with the jets because I think he realized, oh, God, like, it wasn't bad at all. Like, whatever. What their decision to, you know, did Jordan love stuff and all that? Like, I think he, he was chasing something similar to Green Bay, and I think he's gotten it in Pittsburgh because there's a lot of similarities between the two organizations. The history, the tradition, the consistency. Like, much like we see the packers and, you know, they've had three quarter quote, unquote, you know, franchise quarterbacks in, you know, 35 years or whatever it is. Steelers have had three coaches in 60 years. Like, I think, I think there's a lot of similarities between the two and I think the jets being such a vomit bucket, I think made him appreciate his time in Green Bay even more so than he did before. And I think he found a lot.
- [14:43]
Dan Beyer
Of the similarities in Pittsburgh and I think that you're right about that. And so he had the line if can we play it again, Mark, can we play Aaron Rodgers again? Because there was a line that he said that I think stands out and there's a reason why I brought up the Vikings. But let's hear Aaron Rodgers yesterday again.
- [14:59]
Aaron Rodgers
I mean, I'm thinking about this week, but obviously I'm 42 years old and I'm on a one year deal, so you know what the situation is. Whenever the season ends, I'll be a free agent. So that'll give me a lot of options if I still want to play. I'm not a lot of options, but there'll be options. I, you know, I would think maybe one or two if I decide I still want to play.
- [15:20]
Dan Beyer
So there, that last part, like not a lot of, a lot of options that he laughs. He's like, well, not a lot, but maybe one or two. And I think like, Minnesota is an opportunity. And your point about him appreciating Green Bay, I think is true in the sense of. I think he may also appreciate a little more Mike McCarthy and Matt LaFleur because of his relationship with Mike Tomlin and how good it's been. And I think that Rodgers may look, and this is just me guessing, but I really, he really respects Mike Tomlin. Like there is, there's no doubt, like there is no different. But Mike Tomlinson isn't an offensive guy and Aaron Rodgers loves to be the smartest guy in the room, and that includes if the head coach is there or not. So if it's Mike McCarthy, where there was some butting of heads, and Matt LaFleur, where there was some frustrations, Rodgers had his way and I wonder if he's now like, you know what? After going through the jets crap, I really respect Mike Tomlin. How can you not respect what Kevin o' Connell has done? I think Kevin o' Connell's beloved by everyone like that that would be an option for him that maybe because of how things went so bad for the jets, he' okay, maybe now I do want to play. Maybe I would go about this differently working with a head coach who is so offensive minded. So I think if I'm reading between the lines, that's what I'm reading between the lines is his one or two options as a free agent would be other teams. Otherwise he would just end up retiring.
- [16:45]
Jonas Knox
And I mean, you know, I think, I don't know if you want to apologize now or if you want to do it later, but like to just to disrespect nine like that on New.
- [16:53]
Dan Beyer
Year's, I just think I apologize to Nine, not to J.J. mcCarthy. Okay, that's fine, Nine.
- [17:00]
Jonas Knox
We'll split the difference. That's fine. I just, you know, I think it's pretty disrespectful. I mean, we open up the year and you're just like throwing shade at the guy. I mean, he's out.
- [17:06]
Dan Beyer
What year is it? Nine.
- [17:07]
Jonas Knox
Yeah.
- [17:08]
Dan Beyer
Why don't they drop a nine? Why was everybody wearing 20, 26 glasses? I thought this was the year of nine.
- [17:13]
Jonas Knox
Like, what? It's like just the most absurd thing in the world. I call him nine. Oh, you do? We're glad you call him that. We like to call your name when we're doing a game. That's what we'd like to call.
- [17:26]
Richard Sherman
Just like, don't.
- [17:28]
Jonas Knox
Who thought that was a good idea? Right? Who thought that was a good idea? But yeah, I would say the same teams that were rumored to have interest in Rogers, if it's not Pittsburgh, are going to be the same teams this off season. Like, I think Minnesota would be one. God, maybe that's it. Like, there was conversations about, you know, maybe San Francisco, but I think that that ship has sailed.
- [17:57]
Dan Beyer
Clearly, the Raiders would be interesting only because there would. I think there's going to be a new coach there, but you also have the number one. I know things have gone so well. What's going on?
- [18:07]
Jonas Knox
What's going on with the Raider? What do you mean?
- [18:10]
Dan Beyer
The worst team in the league is played the fewest rookie snaps of any team in the league.
- [18:14]
Jonas Knox
They fired Chip Kelly. They got it covered. Dan, don't you. You know what you're talking about.
- [18:18]
Dan Beyer
Things aren't good when 67% of your coordinators are fired, but 100% of your kids stay on staff.
- [18:23]
Jonas Knox
And you know what? I, you know, I threw out this proposal. You know, I had this idea for Raider fans. I don't know if you sign in on this, but, you know, when everyone's talking about, like, what the Raiders should do in the draft. I think there should be another draft. And I think we Do a big event. I think you open up, it's at Allegiant Stadium. You're going to sell it out. You open up with a performance by the Blue Man Group. Then you have a bunch of fat fake Elvis's come out in Act 2 and Act 3. The main event is Raider fans get to draft a new team. And I think if you really want to like do something for the fan base to get excited, tell them to get off Tankathon. Okay, stop. You know, like, like literally I love Tank. Like Raider fans have spent time on pornhub and Tank a thon in the last three weeks. Like that, that's been, that's been their algorithm and their search history. Let it go. Because whoever it is isn't going to fix that disaster that is the Raiders. Okay? It's not like Fernando Mendoza is not going to fix the Raiders. Like, I'm sorry, I know everyone thinks this is like this is the case. It's just not going to happen. So maybe Rogers to to the Raiders.
- [19:29]
Dan Beyer
Could be a poss this year. We thought the biggest issue with the Raiders was that Tom Brady was in the coach's booth with a tuxedo on.
- [19:39]
Jonas Knox
He's giving up inside information, right?
- [19:42]
TJ Maxx Announcer
Hey.
- [19:43]
Dan Beyer
He literally looked like he showed up late for his kids recital, like in his work clothes and just like sat.
- [19:50]
Jonas Knox
Like so I was in the back the whole time. I saw it.
- [19:53]
Dan Beyer
I'm here. Oh man. That at the time we thought was the worst thing that could happen with the Raiders this season by the way. Then they played more football games.
- [20:02]
Jonas Knox
I had a buddy try and pull that move. The buddy tried to pull that move. My awful band back in the day, we were playing a show at the Whiskey a Go Go and I had my buddy who was like. I come down off stage and he's like, he's like, hey man. He's all, dude, great show man. That was an awesome show. I was like, yeah, you like. I was like, what was your favorite part? He said, dude, all of it, man. You guys rocked. I was like, yeah, all of it. It's like, hey man, I saw you just walk up through the sidewalk where they're literally offlo loading equipment on from the stage for the next band to come up. I saw you just walk down. He goes, yeah, sorry man, I, you know, I thought. I didn't know. I forgot what time it was. I was like, yeah, that's fine man. Like if you paid your 10 bucks, it's cool. We got our money.
- [20:41]
Dan Beyer
Give you the LeBron James. It's your favorite line. All of them? Yeah, Every single one. Yeah, every single line is my favorite.
- [20:50]
Jonas Knox
But. But yeah. So Aaron Rodgers, who knows? Could be. Could be the swan song. Or maybe he's back. By the way, be sure to check out our brand new YouTube channel for the show.

Dan Beyer
My favorite thing. Well, it's not my favorite thing, but when we work in broadcasting, we work in this audio medium. We've added video. And so you'll see Jonas, you'll see our hosts. And nobody's wearing suit and ties. Right?
- [21:28]
Okta AI Agent Advertiser
Right.
- [21:28]
Dan Beyer
And behind the scenes, Mark's got his White Sox cap on, Patrick's got his Seahawks sweatshirt on. It's pretty, pretty lax when somebody comes here in, in a suit like Tom Brady showed up at work. The greatest thing is because it's a two part play. The first part is, is somebody goes, oh, looking sharp. And then the following, without fail, is, I just came from a funeral. So that's what it is. It's never like, people always want to be like, oh, a job, like, you're leaving us. And it's like, no, someone near to me died. And so I. But I had to leave that. I had to leave the morning to come here and edit Raptors next. So that's.
- [22:11]
Jonas Knox
That happened, actually, with a co worker here.
- [22:13]
Dan Beyer
Yeah, it does. It happens all the time. I came in one day with slacks and a shirt like, oh, Dan's looking good. Yeah, well, I got to bury someone four hours later. Like, this is this, is this is why I'm wearing this. Otherwise I'd just be wearing a cap and shorts.
- [22:27]
Jonas Knox
Yeah. Can you, can you, can you help me? They're over on Dickens right now. We're going to take it over.
- [22:30]
Dan Beyer
It's like, it is.
- [22:32]
Jonas Knox
The hearse is over there.
- [22:33]
Dan Beyer
Yeah. Never guess, like, oh, looking sharp. Where are you headed? Oh, just to the cemetery.
- [22:40]
Richard Sherman
Yeah.
- [22:40]
Dan Beyer
Two miles up the road. That's where I'm headed.
- [22:42]
Jonas Knox
That's what happened.
- [22:43]
Dan Beyer
Don't worry, I'll be back. Yes.
- [22:45]
Jonas Knox
I asked him like, hey, man, you look great. Because it came from a funeral.
- [22:48]
Dan Beyer
Yeah. That's the only reason why that's. No one's. No one has left the wedding to go to Work just doesn't happen. You know, what you take off for the wedding, you go to the funeral. Well, either before or after, it's truly what it is.
- [23:01]
Miller Lite / Tire Rack Advertiser
Yeah.
- [23:01]
Jonas Knox
So.
- [23:01]
Dan Beyer
And I think that can work in a lot of lines of work as well.
- [23:04]
Jonas Knox
Yeah. Well, by the way, if you are on your way to a funeral, make sure you have some tire rack tires because for over 40 years, Tire Rack has been helping customers find the right tires for how, what and where they drive ship fast and free, backed by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation.

- [24:00]
Miller Lite / Tire Rack Advertiser
Quick, knowledgeable and funny. Opinionated. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- [24:04]
Jonas Knox
What are you doing? You're interrupting our promo. Yeah, he wasn't talking about you. You took those clips totally out of context.
- [24:11]

Oh, yeah.

- [28:04]
Jonas Knox
I think Kirk Herbstreet is living a lie. I just like to point this out. I just figured something out during the break. So we're making. Because it's pouring out here. For those of you listening across the country, it is pouring in Southern California. Still pouring. The Rose bowl kicks off in four hours, four and a half hours. Kirk Curbstreet is on apparatus number three, and he started off with a blue towel because apparently they decided they were just going to put those guys in the rain because it makes for good tv. So Kirk Curbstreet started off with a towel, then he changed to a whitehead hat. And then he's got this, what we thought was a Rose bowl hat. And upon further review, I believe it's a melon hat, which is a brand, a hat company. Good, guys. I've known those guys or have gotten melon hats for a long time. But he put a Rose bowl logo on the logo of the melon hat. And I'm almost positive there are no melon Rose bowl hats. I'm almost positive.
- [29:02]
Dan Beyer
You don't think they have a side deal with the Rose Bowl? I don't know. Patrick Stadium, Rose bowl hat. So what you're saying is that Herb street probably saw that There was a 50, $60 hat at the. At the memorabilia spot, said, well, I got a hat in my bag, but it doesn't have Rose Bowl. How about I buy this pin for $18 and put it on my hat and wear it? You think that's what it is?
- [29:27]
Jonas Knox
Either that or you got it from Rob Parker. Yes, one of the two. I mean, Rob Parker is close by.
- [29:32]
Dan Beyer
Yeah, no, it does say odd couple on the side. Mlb, bro. Cause you need the beat. Oh, there goes Kirk. Herb Street's dogs Y by again. Back in the raft. There he goes. Well, look, it's tough to play fetch when you're in a inflatable, but they're figuring out a way to do so.

Dan Beyer
Sure, absolutely.
- [30:17]
Jonas Knox
So you and I have worked together for a long time. I think 15 years at this point. 16 years, long ass time. And I remember having conversations with you about the Rose bowl and you telling me about, you know, the, the two o' clock kickoff. You know, two o' clock kickoff, you know, four o' clock central time. You know, there's. And I. And growing up out here in Southern California, I never realized that that was truly a thing. It's just sort of. You kind of take it for granted. It's 2O'. Clock, what's the big deal? Like it's 2 in the. It's like a random middle of the day time. What's the big deal? But I didn't realize to other parts of the country. That was really part of the appeal was you got to see the San Gabriel mountains. You got to see. And it's beautiful. Like if you're like, just like it's not made up. It's not. I mean you won't be able to see them today, but it's like the whole presentation is really what the Rose bowl is about. And being out here in Southern California, you're so close to it that you don't have a far away view of it all. And I say all that to say this. The game will be kicking off at one o' clock today. So those days are over.
- [31:26]
Dan Beyer
A change. And it's a big, it is a big change because the transition period from the third quarter to the fourth quarter, while it's not exact, it was always about the time that the sun would be shining on the San Gabriel mountains. So you would see a great, great view. So you're going from a game that starts in daylight, that goes into sunset, into dusk, and then ends under the lights. And that's what you would have for Southern California and Jonas's perspective, but for people like us in the Midwest. And the reason why it's a big deal is because of the Big Ten, Pac12, Pac10, however far back you want to go relationship with the Rose bowl, it's January 1st, most places are under snow or it's frigid. And to see a game as your day is about to turn tonight in what was a very short day because the sun sets anywhere between 4 and 4:30, depending on where you are in a lot of places. The sun is starting to set and it's starting to get dark while this game is in baskton sunshine just flooded with sun and the rays. And you're sitting there and it's June 1st in the Midwest, looking out at a snowbank outside your living room window. And it was this, it was a magical place. It was a place that you would always, I gotta be there someday. I've got to go there. But that's the, that's kind of the, I guess, dichotomy between the two. When you had Big Ten against Pac12 because most of the Big Ten country was under a foot of snow with single degree temperatures as they're watching the.
- [33:08]
Jonas Knox
Rose bowl, it was just something I had never really thought of from that perspective. And then when you laid it out, it's, it's part of the reason why I like watching Hawaii games, if I'm being honest. I like the idea of especially early in the season, it's like, well, the game kicks off at nine and it's, it looks like it's two in the afternoon in Hawaii. And I just remember watching Aloha Stadium and I remember watching the Pro bowl at Aloha Stadium and being like, same thing. Like, man, I want to go there one day. I got to be there. And then being able to get there and realizing, how's this place still standing? Yeah, well, what do we, anybody get.
- [33:44]
Dan Beyer
A. I'm still standing.
- [33:45]
Jonas Knox
How do we get somewhere? This is the media elevator. Like, we all, we're all taking the same one. You mean the guy delivering the big waves upstairs? Like, I'm taking this. Okay, fair enough. But it, so I, I, when you take a step back and you sort of look at it, it wasn't until I had that conversation with somebody who grew up watching the game, different part of the country, that that was really the appeal. Like, that, that was really what this was all about. And I'm sorry. And I know that it's this whole adapt or die thing and I get all that, but I just think there's certain traditions that you just don't really need to mess with. Like, you don't really have to do. It's why the, you know, the USC Notre Dame rivalry coming to an end is sad because it's like, man, that's been like, what, since the 40s? That's been going on.
- [34:31]
Dan Beyer
Think about last night, Jonas. Like, we have a Cotton bowl that doesn't even bother to color in the full end zones and they're playing At a stadium when the Cotton bowl is, you know, 15 miles away, right. Like, again, there is a cotton ball, which, by the way, they've done a bunch of renovations to. But Jerry Jones is going to have the cotton ball in his stadium. A blah stadium that looks just like everything else. The Orange bowl is now the home to where the Marlins plays. That's been torn down. So they've been playing at, you know, at Hard Rock Stadium, whatever it's called now. That's where the Orange bowl is. Like, the Rose bowl is being played at the Rose Bowl. Like, there is. There is a reason on why it's special. Watch the games today. Tell us which ones resonate the most. Even though the Orange Bull may have the best field, it's the. It's the feel of the Rose bowl that is different. I went back and looked at bowl games because when I grew up, Jonas, for some reason, like, my bowl game memorance was. It was the hall of Fame game, but it was Outback Bowl, Citrus Bowl, Gator bowl would be playing early. You would maybe play the Fiesta bowl opposite the Rose Bowl. You'd have the Sugar bowl and Orange bowl at night. That was my schedule of New Year's day of games. And I went back and looked, and there was a period of time in the 1980s where the Fiesta bowl was the lead in because the Rose bowl was on NBC. So the Fiesta bowl in Arizona starting at like 10am Sweet, like crazy, like, stuff that, that I don't remember. But you know what didn't change? The time of the Rose Bowl. Everything else moved around, but the Rose bowl didn't. I know that probably brought animosity with other Bulls, but the other Bulls aren't the Rose Bowl. The Rose bowl has a. Has a right to kind of stand on their laurels to say this is the history, because that's what we all love. I. We talk about Kirk Curbstreet. I've seen him. I've seen Joel Klatt. People are wearing Rose bowl hats. Have you ever walked around, you know, and. And I love the Sun Bowl. I've never seen anybody, like, cool sun bowl hat. Like, never, never Fiesta bowl hat. Not never seen one.
- [36:31]
Jonas Knox
Hey, Valero Bowl.
- [36:33]
Dan Beyer
Yeah, right, right. And I'm. I'm not talking. I'm not talking about Arizona State at the Sun Bowl. I'm talking about just a Sun bowl hat. Like, these are just Rose bowl hats with a rose on. Like, there is. There is something to that. So changing the kickoff actually is a big deal. It's a big deal. For, for a lot of people. And I, I, it stinks that the Rose bowl has to kind of bend the knee. The point of putting the Rose bowl as the national championship game, while you maybe wouldn't have the sunset Jonas that, that we would have liked, it may be the best option. Maybe, maybe there'd be a way. If it stays the way that it does, instead of playing it on New Year's Day, sunsets a little bit later on in January, you kick off at sunset. Maybe that ends up being the look. But I'm telling you, there is something about it. And while it's different, it's still a higher. More people would rather go to the Rose bowl than any of the other bowls combined if their team was not playing in it.
- [37:26]
Jonas Knox
Yeah. And now what else? Say this. I, I do like Mother Nature being like, oh, you're going to hour earlier. You guys are kicking off.
- [37:36]
Miller Lite / Tire Rack Advertiser
Cool.
- [37:37]
Jonas Knox
Suck on this. I got something for you. And just pours the entire time here. Have fun. Have fun, guys. You want to mess with the kickoff of the Rose bowl, we're going to dump on you. You're not getting your sunset. You're not getting the San Gabriel mountains. You're lucky we let this game be played. I'll tell you what. If, if there's a wager right now at some sports book on whether or not somebody gets struck by lightning in the Rose bowl, today will be the day. And guess who. You guess who you blame for it? Espn. That's who you blame for it. Because they're the ones who are behind this whole concocting of games being moved around at different time slots.
- [38:09]
Dan Beyer
It'll be between the 1 and 2 o' clock hour. The local hour.
- [38:11]
Jonas Knox
That's right.
- [38:13]
Dan Beyer
It shouldn't have been played right at 2:00'.
- [38:15]
Odoo Advertiser
Clock.
- [38:16]
Jonas Knox
A lightning bolt from the heavens, by the way.
- [38:18]
Dan Beyer
They just showed an aerial shot with the sun shining on the mountains with Oregon and Ohio State in the end zone. So they've had to use last year's footage because of the crappy weather Southern California has had over the last week or two.
- [38:31]
Jonas Knox
By the way, do we have an update on the Rose bowl melon hat? Are there actually melon Rose bowl hats or did Kirk Herb street steal a decal from somewhere, put it on the hat to try and claim that he has a Rose bowl hat he definitely stole in all that stuff. It's definitely option B because all the hats I'm seeing, it's just, it's a, it's a blue one, like a UCLA blue one. A USC Red one and then a black one, and none of which look anywhere close to anything that he's wearing.
- [38:58]
Dan Beyer
Well, Jonas's hat is gray. Like it. It looks similar to the one that Jonas is wearing right now.
- [39:02]
Jonas Knox
I mean, is this the. Let me ask you, is the white with the rose on it, Is that the one that Clatt had?
- [39:08]
Dan Beyer
Yeah, like, it's like the long.
- [39:09]
Jonas Knox
That is a melon hat. All right, well, maybe they do. Some of them exist. Maybe Joel Klatt's got more stroke than Kirk Curb Street. Maybe there's that. So, I mean, look, you know, I'm a big fan. And just a rose on it, too is a sweet look.
- [39:22]
Richard Sherman
Yeah.
- [39:24]
Dan Beyer
Nobody's putting sugar packets in their mouth when they get to go to the Sugar Bowl. Like, that's not happening.
- [39:31]
Jonas Knox
Maybe we should.
- [39:32]
Okta AI Agent Advertiser
Right?
- [39:33]
Dan Beyer
Nobody's. Nobody's taking Orange Bowl. Like, people are putting the rose in their mouth when they get to go to the Rose bowl or win the Rose Bowl.
- [39:40]
Jonas Knox
Right, right. When you think of, if I were to give you, like, a bowl game, could you think of one player from your memory of that bowl game?
- [39:50]
Dan Beyer
All right, maybe it's really putting me on the spot.
- [39:52]
Jonas Knox
Like, Rose bowl, first player that comes.
- [39:54]
Dan Beyer
To mind, Ron Dane.
- [39:56]
Jonas Knox
Okay, that's. That's fair. Peach bowl, first paper per person that comes to mind. Oh, God. Because you mentioned the Cotton bowl, and I don't even know if this guy played in the Cotton bowl, but for whatever reason you say Cotton bowl, and the first name that comes to mind is Major Applewhite, and I have no idea.
- [40:13]
Dan Beyer
Oh, that's. That's interesting.
- [40:14]
Jonas Knox
I don't know. I don't actually know if he ever played in a Cotton bowl, but that's just my association with the Cotton Bowl.
- [40:19]
Dan Beyer
Yeah, I. Gosh, Peach bowl would be tough. It's kind of a funky bowl because it wasn't a big time bowl. And then it became a big time, like Cotton Ball. Chris Spielman for Ohio State had a great Cotton bowl against Texas A and m in the 1980s.
- [40:31]
Jonas Knox
Outback Bowl Bowl. Blooming Onion.
- [40:34]
Dan Beyer
The. The Outback Bowl. I think Zach Dumas from Ohio State lit up an Auburn player. Believe it. Because that was the hall of Fame bowl at that point. But Outback bowl would have to be Jadevian Clowney, right?
- [40:44]
Jonas Knox
100.
- [40:44]
Dan Beyer
Yeah.
- [40:44]
Jonas Knox
Yeah. And by the way, that's pretty much all he did that game. Like, he got. I think Taylor lawn tackle, he was going against for Michigan, and I think Taylor Juan had a really good day that day against Jadevian Cloudy, but except.
- [40:56]
Dan Beyer
On the one play.
- [40:57]
Miller Lite / Tire Rack Advertiser
Yep.

- [46:14]
Dan Beyer
But hey, to the to the victor go the spoil. It it is. It is your day. Just like yesterday was Gary Danielson's day. The sun bowl was a great game between Arizona State. And Duke. By the way, that's a game that I would like to go to because I love how El Paso just embraces the game. Sometimes it can get chilly there. Their field looked magnificent. Full end zones colored. None of this insert Rose bowl stuff that they've been doing for the last 20 years. Just again, fill out the whole end zone, will you? Bright orange of Arizona State contrasting with the beautiful blue of Duke in the end zone. The sun bowl is one of my favorites in New Year's Eve tradition.
- [46:50]
Jonas Knox
What were they jumping into, by the way? What was that?
- [46:52]
Dan Beyer
Frosted Flakes. Yeah. Tony the Tiger.
- [46:55]
Jonas Knox
Okay. They look like those peanut butter filled pretzels. It did not look like frosted.
- [46:59]
Dan Beyer
I don't know. That's what I thought. That's what they were. Yeah, they did a dump on Manny Diaz, the Duke head coach, but overshadowed in the. In the win, of course. The sun bowl, the reason why I love it is it's the only bowl game CBS has. Like every other bowl games on espn, you're just like, you know, holiday bowls on Fox. But it just gets. It really gets old when it's just the same network. So cbs top crew, even if it's Arizona State against Duke. And the top crews, Brad Nestler and Gary Danielson. And Gary Danielson signed off from his broadcasting career, retiring yesterday after 36 seasons as a broadcaster, after an NFL career. And this is how he signed off on CBS in his final broadcast.

So earlier we heard what great speeches, like the one Pat Boland made for the Denver Broncos when they won Super Bowl 32 and John Elway finally got a Super bowl title. We heard what that would have been like. On cbs. We also heard what Kevin Durant's MVP speech in Ode to his mother. We played how that would have sounded on cbs. Let's take some other moments, Jonas. Like remember the night that we captured Osama bin Laden?
- [49:03]
Jonas Knox
Oh, yeah.

Hey, Brad Nestler, why don't you help your partner out? For God's sakes, the lady's counting down right in your face. Somebody take a cue.
- [50:51]
Dan Beyer
There is an inside media to that. Like, Nestler's been counted down his entire career while Danielson just rode shotgun. So the one time they're counting Danielson. And if you watch the video and I tweeted it earlier, you can see the send off and how it. It was a really nice send off. It just hap and happened to end abruptly with a New Year's Eve Rockin Eve promo. But you see the woman counting down and she's like, five, four. And so you know it's about to happen. And then he goes in this guy and then boom. Just pure magic. Pure magic.

Bailey Zimmerman here live for Penn State Nebraska.

Jonas Knox
Like, you know what, you know What I have noticed though, the longer I've done this, like, we have this clock in our head to where if you were to tell me at any random point of the day, you gotta. You gotta say something in 10 seconds. Seconds. We're so used to it now because we've been counted down for so long doing radio that I could do it, like, literally anything. I could count down, like, I could. I could get a message out in 10 seconds. Like, I mean, only in English at home. Like that's. It's not happening anywhere else. But I just, I know that clock. So I would have assumed that them there probably wouldn't have even needed the countdown. But still, they went to it. Just in case. Just in case. And now, thus we get this.
