1 00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:03,880 What's happening, everybody? Welcome back to Unleashed here. 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:08,200 Hopefully the lisp is gone. I, I will find out very soon 3 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:09,640 with a thumbs up or a thumbs down. 4 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,800 I think we're good. Wow. 5 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,520 I mean, this is, this is what you're looking for as a Giants 6 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,440 fan, aren't you? This is what you're looking for. 7 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:21,200 Now, before I I want to start with an exercise in whether it's 8 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,320 math or or randomness or perception, I want to start with 9 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:27,440 this, right? First of all, I love John 10 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,480 Horrbaum. He's a terrific coach, but I do 11 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,320 think certain things have been a little bit hijacked here for a 12 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,360 couple of different reasons, which I'll detail in a moment. 13 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,240 First of all, Coach X. All right, let's start with the 14 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:40,360 variable Coach X. So Coach X is 63 years old. 15 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,240 He's coached for 18 years. He's got a 61% winning 16 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,000 percentage. He's got a Super Bowl, and the 17 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,560 last four years he's coached, he's gone 10/13/12 and eight. 18 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,160 OK, That's what Coach X has done. 19 00:00:54,160 --> 00:01:00,360 Coach Y is a year younger, he's 62 years old, 18 years, 61% 20 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,000 winning percentage, same in the regular season, won Super Bowl 21 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,440 the same and the last four years 12/12/12 and seven wins. 22 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,920 OK. Coach X has also had the luxury 23 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,680 of coaching A2 time Most Valuable Player in Lamar 24 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:16,160 Jackson. Coach Y has not. 25 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,520 So in case you haven't been able to deduce who's X and who's Y, 26 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,120 let me tell you Coach X is obviously John Horbaugh and 27 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,600 Coach Y is Coach Mike McCarthy. Now, I'm not going to get up 28 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,760 here and say that I think that Mike McCarthy is better than 29 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,400 horribaugh, but I think that there's a conversation to be 30 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,760 had. I just gave you literally 31 00:01:35,960 --> 00:01:39,320 basically encompassing 2 full decades worth of coaching. 32 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,080 They've each won a Super Bowl, They've each won 61% of their 33 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,920 regular season games. And the last four years they've, 34 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,280 you know, they petered out that final year, which is why they 35 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,880 were let go. Horbaugh won eight times this 36 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,120 year and McCarthy two years ago won seven with Dallas. 37 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:58,840 But it was big double digit win totals 10/13/12 for Horbaugh and 38 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,040 then 12/12/12. And and that that's for 39 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:05,520 obviously for McCarthy. But the way that you you hear 40 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,360 this being positioned like you would think that the New York 41 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,840 Knicks are bringing in Pat Riley like it's nineteen 19192. 42 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,040 I really like John Harbaugh. John Harbaugh is terrific. 43 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,680 John Harbaugh is an immediate massive upgrade. 44 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:24,360 The press conference home run gravitas no doubt Giant fans 45 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,320 feeling good in bold in season tickets. 46 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,680 You know every the merch is flying off the racks. 47 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,920 He's got his quarterback. I think if John Harbaugh is the 48 00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:35,560 head coach of the Giants and I think there's a better chance 49 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:36,720 that he will be that he won't be. 50 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,240 I think it's fantastic. I think the Giants are in great 51 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,760 hands for a while and we'll see where it goes. 52 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:46,320 But I also think that is a very delicate needle to thread guys, 53 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,480 because think about this, there's a couple of things here 54 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,120 where if the Giants aren't perfect and, and I as much as 55 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,520 the organization, as much as they've been in shambles for a 56 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,200 while now, I do think the Giants will handle this well. 57 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,400 Now, Stefanski was in last night, they had dinner. 58 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,360 Today's the full meeting. So there are a couple of wild 59 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:09,080 cards here that's going to make the Giants job just a little bit 60 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,920 more difficult to really properly navigate that. 61 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,560 Now some I don't know what's going to happen, but what 62 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,560 happens if what happens if the Bills lay an egg against the 63 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:19,880 Jaguars? What happens there? 64 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,120 What happens if Philly gets rolled by San Francisco? 65 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,040 Remember, job was the was a coordinator there for 9 or 10 66 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,360 years. What happens if the Steelers 67 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,000 lose a home game to the Houston Texans on Monday night? 68 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,640 I, I, you know, depending upon the optics of some of those 69 00:03:32,640 --> 00:03:35,080 losses, particularly the Bills, like if the Bills were to get 70 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,760 stomped out by the Jaguars, you'd have to think that they 71 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:40,160 would at least have the conversation. 72 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,320 Because I think they've had previous conversations about 73 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,880 whether or not Mcdermott's kind of hit the end of the road 74 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,320 there. I've got a lot of buddies who 75 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:48,760 are Bills fans and they're tired of them. 76 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,160 They don't think he's the next level guy. 77 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,200 And when you've got Josh Allen in contract #2 firmly in his 78 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,000 prime, like, you've got to find the guy to get you there. 79 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,520 So I don't know, don't they be thinking up there in Buffalo? 80 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,120 And then you also have to factor this. 81 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,320 Now this is where it gets really interesting. 82 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,080 So whether it's a Miami, whether it's a Tampa, whether it's a 83 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,480 Dallas, maybe a lesser extent, whether it's Cincinnati, if one 84 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:15,200 of those coaches is fired now as they were, even though you know, 85 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,760 Black Monday is coming God and they are still employed as of 86 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,120 now. Well, now that John Horbaugh was 87 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,240 was fired, that could obviously change some plans here. 88 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,280 I don't know. Does he like the appeal of and 89 00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:28,520 the weather of Miami? Does he want to go coach Joe 90 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,400 Burrow, who I think is better than Lamar? 91 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,280 Does he want to go to Dallas and, and all that comes with the 92 00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:36,680 Dallas branding and you know, the monstrosity of what that 93 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,240 emblem represents? Does he think the Buccaneers 94 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,360 have a better roster? I, I, I don't know the answer to 95 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:47,360 these questions, but so this man, this, this is just, I mean, 96 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:48,880 why couldn't my jets be in the middle of this? 97 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,160 But I'm not going to waste your time on that. 98 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,440 What I do have a little something on The Jets after, But 99 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,920 how nice would it be like if The Jets were doing, we're in the 100 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,960 middle of this year where, you know, they moved on from Glenn. 101 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,840 And by the way, I said that they shouldn't fire Glenn, But I also 102 00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:04,480 said that there could be circumstances which would maybe 103 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,000 present itself where I would say, OK, I'm going to take that 104 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,840 back. I'm going to fire Aaron and this 105 00:05:08,840 --> 00:05:10,280 would be one of them. They're not going to do that. 106 00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:14,000 But as they're right now at all probability going through 107 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,320 schemes and going through philosophy and talking with 108 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:22,400 Kevin Stefanski about what his vision would be for the New York 109 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,760 Giants. Well, you know, you've got 110 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,600 within the 1st 45 minutes of the news breaking that John Harbaugh 111 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,280 was fired, seven teams reached out to his agent. 112 00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:31,640 And I don't think that that's hyperbole. 113 00:05:31,840 --> 00:05:34,360 Like I don't think that that's Scott Boris, you know, doing a 114 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,440 little song and dance nursery rhyme trying to hype up his guy. 115 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,240 I don't think that you need to hype up John Harbaugh because I 116 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:41,680 think that John Harbaugh is terrific. 117 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,800 But I also think that there are other men that are available 118 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,000 that are comparable. Like I, you know, I had to, I 119 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,880 had to jump in the car for a little bit today and yeah, jump 120 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,320 on the radio. Just got to see what's going 121 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:53,680 around. Like you, you would think that 122 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,800 Bill Parcells when he came to save the even though The Jets 123 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,800 didn't win the championship, but after the one win season back in 124 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,440 1996 and preceding that was a three win season with go tight. 125 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,680 And then Parcells came to The Jets and they went nine and 126 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,520 seven. Then they went 12 and 8 lost the 127 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,320 AFC championship game to Denver. Like you would think that 128 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,720 Parcells, if it is horrible, is rolling into that building. 129 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,120 And I got to tell you, I, you know, just to add up, just to 130 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,440 strip the emotion away from it, because I've already said that I 131 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,880 think that John will be an amazing upgrade. 132 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:29,200 And you know, AB plus maybe even an, A minus kind of a coach 133 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,520 here. But you know, you, you can't, 134 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,280 well, you can. I choose not to ignore the fact 135 00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:37,640 that he's coached for almost 2 decades and he's got 1 136 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,760 championship. And there were a lot of moments 137 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,120 where his team came up small, including the other night. 138 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:47,000 So I just think that it's been a little a little hijacked a 139 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,200 little improperly position like John Horribaugh is a terrific 140 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,160 football coach. And if you have a vacancy or you 141 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,120 think you might have a vacancy, if that should arise based on 142 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:59,320 what you know what, what could happen this weekend with some of 143 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,280 the teams and some of the situations I just mentioned. 144 00:07:01,280 --> 00:07:06,080 Well, I mean, John Horribaugh is as reliable and as safe and as 145 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,760 as as you know, I I would think the fans would be galvanized. 146 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,560 I think it's on so many levels. It's terrific. 147 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,160 I think everybody would be juiced up over it, but I am 148 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:18,080 having a rough time and and I am looking this at this completely 149 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,200 objectively, not an ounce of subjectivity. 150 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,400 I don't have a dog in the fight. It's not my team. 151 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,640 It's just honest. And and you know, even with my 152 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,080 teams, I'd, I'd like to think what it's time to really cut the 153 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,440 nut and be objective that I could do that as well as 154 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,720 anybody. But where in the world is the 155 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,600 differentiating factor between John Horribaugh and Mike 156 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,760 McCarthy? Can somebody please explain that 157 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,320 to me? I have yet to hear one logical 158 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,920 point where John Horribaugh is the positively better than Mike 159 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,880 McCarthy. I've get I've I've not heard 160 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,840 that yet and but all I heard because I was saying this when I 161 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,120 was still on the fan. Hey McCarthy. 162 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,680 I like McCarthy. I've always liked McCarthy. 163 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,760 If the giant this was before they fired Dabel. 164 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,720 If the Giants move on from Dabel, you know you might want 165 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:01,880 to call McCarthy. Guys pretty good and they 166 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,280 literally have the same exact winning percentage in the 167 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,480 regular season. They've literally coached the 168 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,040 same amount of years. They literally have the same 169 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,080 amount of Super Bowl wins. And Oh yeah, by the way, the one 170 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,920 guy who everybody's positioning is like, you know, the the next 171 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:19,000 coming of, of, of the football Christ here is, you know, is 172 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,400 like he's without flaw. I'm sorry. 173 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:25,720 The one thing that that I choose to incorporate into my 174 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,680 evaluation and my analysis of this entire thing, like you 175 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,760 don't get points to me for winning a lot of regular season 176 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,480 games and then consistently coming up short when it matters. 177 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,440 When you got a multi time MVP that is actually a strike 178 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,840 against you. That should be a knock against 179 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,880 you. But the amount of people who are 180 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,000 failing to incorporate this, either they don't believe it. 181 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,120 And by the way, that's fine. I'm not saying that what I'm 182 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,400 saying is right for everybody. Clearly based on the reaction so 183 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,400 far today, what I'm saying is kind of counter to what 184 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,520 everybody's saying. I, I just, I just don't get it. 185 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,560 And then you look at somebody like Kevin Stefanski, right? 186 00:09:02,560 --> 00:09:05,120 So we, we did coach X, we did coach Y. 187 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:09,240 Let me hit you with Coach Z now, who is 46 years old and a lot 188 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,240 long, a lot younger than the other two men because one is 62 189 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,360 and one is 63. He is a two time coach of the 190 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:19,200 year and twice he won 11 games with the most dysfunctional 191 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,080 franchise this side of The Jets. And that would be Kevin 192 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:27,200 Stefanski with the Browns. But they're awful, just 193 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,920 disjointed circus of a front office. 194 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:36,040 So to me, like, if I'm looking at upside here, all right, 195 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,400 Giants have the quarterback. All right, Giants still have 196 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,360 that. I know it's eroded a bit. 197 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,840 We've talked about this, but the Giants still have a cachet that 198 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,600 is that is going to elevate them. 199 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,160 And I've been telling you this for a while where I think the 200 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:52,040 Giants job is front and center. Don't tell me about Arizona. 201 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:53,800 You know, I don't want to hear about some of these other 202 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,640 situations with busted cap spaces or no quarterbacks or, 203 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,240 you know, hey, oh, they've got the first pick like the Raiders. 204 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,760 But you don't really know, even though I love Mendoza and and 205 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,800 some of you like Dante more, you don't really know if they're if 206 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,360 they're going to look like Jackson Dart looked as a rookie 207 00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:11,520 without neighbors, without scataboo, without a defense. 208 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,760 Like you just don't know that. So there is a known variable 209 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,120 here with the Giants that I knew was I was going to make them 210 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:19,640 very appealing. I just, I don't, I don't know 211 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:24,200 why some people look at the giants job as as less than, you 212 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,680 know, because I, I was separating what they've become 213 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,000 and I was going more macro and, and giving them the benefit of 214 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,840 the doubt of who they've been for most of my most of my 215 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:38,960 existence as a human being. But if you are 46 and you've had 216 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,120 two amazing seasons and you've done it with one of the worst 217 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,800 franchises in all the sports, OK, and you're thought to be two 218 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,600 or three rungs below or maybe 2, maybe not 32 rungs below 219 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,800 horrible and maybe 2 1/2 behind McCarthy, Well, I could very 220 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,280 easily make the case that you should be elevated past that. 221 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,520 I know they've got the Super Bowl, understood. 222 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,960 But you didn't get a Super Bowl with Lamar Jackson. 223 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,160 You didn't wear enough playoff games with Lamar Jackson. 224 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,400 And and obviously even with McCarthy, who I really like, but 225 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,400 it's far from perfect. Like you could make the case 226 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,960 that projecting and the upside and a more stable franchise and 227 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,600 all the things that the Giants used to be that I believe that 228 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,040 they could get back to being, which I don't believe the Browns 229 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,920 ever could. I could very easily present to 230 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:26,840 you as I am that I think Stefanski is very much on the 231 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,040 same line here as these other two gentlemen. 232 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:33,520 Like if we're doing seeds right for the NCAA tournament, you 233 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,600 want to tell him like his John Horbaugh, is he the is he a 234 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,720 vintage Duke team? Is he a vintage Carolina team? 235 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,960 Is he a vintage UConn team? Whether it's Hurley now or Coach 236 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,120 Calhoun back in the day with three championships, Is he a is 237 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,760 he a vintage wooden team with UCLA at the answer or Georgetown 238 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,960 with Ewing or even St. John's with mother? 239 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,640 The answer is no. Like he's a really good two 240 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,680 seed. He might be among the higher 241 00:11:57,680 --> 00:12:00,560 rated 2 seeds. He might even be like the 4th 242 00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:03,200 one seed. But like, let let's not get this 243 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:07,560 twisted where John Horbaugh is some coaching savior. 244 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,800 There's a lot of disappointments there under his watch. 245 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,200 Now, one thing. Oh, thank God the audio's good. 246 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,520 That's the thank God. Soon as I start, I said, hey, 247 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,960 listen, honey, within 30 seconds, give me thumbs up. 248 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,360 Give me thumbs down. And thank God, I figure, yeah, 249 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,560 by the way, I got to take the L for yesterday. 250 00:12:26,560 --> 00:12:28,960 Yesterday was my fault. What I did was not that you 251 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,360 really care. So this microphone again, a 252 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,480 whole new world, right? This microphone. 253 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,360 I've got a plugged into my laptop. 254 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,360 I'm going through stream yard. I'm getting it back on YouTube 255 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,560 as soon as that's resolved and hopefully that's done today. 256 00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:44,680 I can't control the trust me, if I could would be on, I promise. 257 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,400 So it's all connected through the through the computer, 258 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,440 obviously. And I guess that in my haste 259 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,000 getting ready for the show when clicking on the light over here 260 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,360 and getting everything ready, I forgot to go to the settings 261 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,720 yesterday on my laptop, which would have been able to which, 262 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,400 which would have enabled me to go from, you know, laptop 263 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:10,080 microphone to real microphone. Hence I sounded like a lisp or I 264 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,960 sounded like one of those old movies where the, you know, the 265 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,800 audio was not synced up with the lips. 266 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,720 So thank God we got that resolved because if I had to 267 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,440 deal with that today with a topic like this, you know, I, I, 268 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,320 I don't know, I mean, what am I going to do? 269 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,160 Really, really have much of A choice, but it would have 270 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,520 absolutely driven me nuts. So we're good to go. 271 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:31,440 By the way, I, I, I don't want to, I don't want to say this 272 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,800 because I, I don't know for sure, but I really do think 273 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,800 we're inside about the 10 yard line here on the YouTube stuff. 274 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,760 We got to get this back up like the messages and the flow and 275 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,480 the ability to do all the things we were doing for the first 276 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,760 couple of shows on YouTube. It's really disappointing that 277 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,760 it's happened. But again, control what you can 278 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,880 control. All I can do is content right 279 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,200 now, the bells, the whistles, if you new to this, the background, 280 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,880 the producer, the calls, the guest, it's all coming. 281 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,680 It's all right now. All that matters is that you are 282 00:13:58,680 --> 00:14:01,320 listening to somebody that hopefully you enjoy listening to 283 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,800 or watching and you believe that I know what I'm talking about. 284 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,680 Even if you disagree, agree with these assertions about the 285 00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:09,240 coach, that's all that matters. All the other stuff, you know, 286 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,520 making it look fancy, whatever, we'll, we'll get there, I 287 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:16,320 promise. So I think, I think that part of 288 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:20,640 that, you might not like this. I think that part of the 289 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,360 differentiating factor between forget about Stefanski for a 290 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:25,040 moment. I like him. 291 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:26,080 I don't love him, but I like him. 292 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,760 He's very appealing and very intriguing to me with a lot of 293 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,840 upside, right? Lot of different quarterbacks in 294 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:33,720 Cleveland, awful ownership as we've talked about two awesome 295 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,960 years, eleven wins, that's the Browns. 296 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,040 I mean, let's let's not minimize that, OK? 297 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:45,120 So, but I do think because let's face it, a lot of you, and I 298 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,360 guess to an extent myself as well, we have, we are a little 299 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,760 vain with certain things. Now, I don't give a rat's ass 300 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,400 what my football coach looks like. 301 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,000 I don't care if he's £500 wearing a hoodie. 302 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,840 I don't care if he's decked out like Tom Landry. 303 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,160 Even though the NFL doesn't let you do that anymore like a bunch 304 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:02,280 of idiots. It's a great look. 305 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,000 I don't care what you look like. Can you coach all right, Can you 306 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,440 take a downtrodden team and elevate and then once that 307 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,160 elevation occurs, can you take a middle of the pack team and get 308 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,160 them to a consistent playoff performer? 309 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,760 And once you do that, can you crack through and win a 310 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,440 championship or two? Like that's the floating scale 311 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,520 for me and for most people when it comes to to evaluating 312 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,320 coaches. But I do think, I do think that 313 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,560 some of you, I don't even know, maybe it's the Dallas thing 314 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,560 because he coached there. I think some of you look, 315 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:34,880 because I've heard some of my buddies say it. 316 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,520 I'm like, wow, wow. I think some of you look at 317 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,080 McCarthy like that. He just, he just doesn't look 318 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,400 look the part. So let me get this straight. 319 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:47,560 So John Horbaugh is, in the eyes of many, a discernibly better 320 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,680 head coach. When there's nothing there that 321 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:54,360 backs up that statement, not one single solitary statistic, not a 322 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,240 fact. You can lace it with opinion, 323 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,000 which, by the way, I do with a lot of things. 324 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,840 This medium is fueled largely by opinions. 325 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,400 But when you're talking about something like this, you got to 326 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,160 have your facts lined up. And I feel like there's so many 327 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,480 people who are glossing over the facts, whether it's positive for 328 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,600 Mike or kind of glossing over and maybe minimizing some of the 329 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,120 recent deficiencies for Harbaugh. 330 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,920 Now, one thing that I'm not worried about here, because 331 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,080 every relationship has an expiration. 332 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,720 I don't care if you're a great coach with great principles and 333 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,560 great discipline and great schematics and the ability to 334 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,840 grade out a great, you know, build out a great staff and 335 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:37,360 you're phenomenal with the media, you can be an A+ across 336 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,360 the board, the guy no matter what, right? 337 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,520 And then if you know what happens after a while, the way 338 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,120 you deliver the message, you know, it gets a little all 339 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,160 right. And instead of everybody sitting 340 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,920 there in the meeting like this, you know, ready, maybe doing a 341 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,200 little little skull, a little RIP it, a little spit, but so 342 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,760 locked in, taking the notes. Yep, we got it. 343 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,920 Believing the messaging, following the messaging, Slowly 344 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,880 but surely you start to get a little bit of this. 345 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:07,800 Then the eyes start to wander a little bit. 346 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,920 And then during a bad season, you maybe start getting some of 347 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,480 this and then maybe it really falls apart and maybe you get 348 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,480 some of this, which is obviously untenable. 349 00:17:17,839 --> 00:17:20,000 And I don't know if guys were leaning back in their chairs 350 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,680 falling asleep in the meetings in in Baltimore, but I do know 351 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,720 just based on the reports that, you know, it, it, it, it ran its 352 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,840 course that there was friction, whether it was Lamar with the 353 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,360 coach, other veterans with the coach. 354 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,200 That's fine, by the way, that's not a deterrent to me. 355 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,600 That is called the reality of an 18 year relationship. 356 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,960 You know, whether you're married for 18 years, whether you're 357 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,040 working somewhere for 18 years, whether you're managing a group 358 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,080 of people for 18 years, there's just going to be there's like 359 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,960 when, when the familiarity becomes when you know what the 360 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,920 other person's going to say, all right, and you know how the 361 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,000 other person's going to react and things aren't going 362 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,760 incredibly well. Now. 363 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,080 It's like, Madam, I just don't, I don't want to hear this 364 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,400 anymore. Like we're not within seasons, 365 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:08,640 you know, we're going nowhere and I'm kind of checking out a 366 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,480 little bit. And as you, even if you don't 367 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,520 visually check out like this, you just maybe you're a little 368 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,520 less engaged in your playbook. Maybe you're a little less, you 369 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,840 know, wired into the day-to-day occurrences that that that just 370 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,080 have to happen to get yourself ready to play football at a very 371 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,360 high level. And when you have 53 guys doing 372 00:18:25,360 --> 00:18:28,200 that and you have talent like the Ravens do, you're not going 373 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,280 to miss the playoffs like the Ravens should not have. 374 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,680 They should. They should be a playoff team. 375 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,400 So John Horbaugh underachieved this year, period. 376 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,280 And that's OK because everybody has those years. 377 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,720 You know, even I just mentioned the great Bill Parcells. 378 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:44,280 So when Parcells came here and The Jets were train wreck and he 379 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,800 elevated them immediately, you know, again, imagine, you know, 380 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,920 you think that you think that Harbaugh has a turn around with 381 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,320 the Giants, who were in basically every game and could 382 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,240 have easily won seven or eight games, maybe even 9. 383 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,920 I mean, if you really think about it, but the the Parcells, 384 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,280 the infusion of Parcells into The Jets. 385 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:07,560 So the one win, we all know that one in 15 Co Taigon and then the 386 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,120 first game of his first year they won. 387 00:19:11,120 --> 00:19:14,920 I think it was 43 to 6 in Seattle. 388 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,400 I remember watching that game. I'm like, what? 389 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,920 Wow. They not only did they win, they 390 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,840 destroyed them. So like that presence and that 391 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,120 aura and that buttoned up training camp, there could be 392 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,280 immediate results. But even with Parcells and they 393 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,080 went nine wins that first year and then 12:00 and 4:00. 394 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,040 But then the next year was when Vinny got hurt, when Vinny 395 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,320 ruptured his Achilles and even the great Bill Parcells. 396 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,040 And if I've got 1 football game to win, I've always said this. 397 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,120 And the talent's comparable, you know, and there's no real 398 00:19:45,120 --> 00:19:47,080 advantages. It's basically a push. 399 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,400 Bill Parcells is the guy that I want coaching my team. 400 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:51,880 That's how that's how great I think Bill is. 401 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,360 I think he's better than Belichick. 402 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,040 He doesn't have more wins, doesn't have more championships. 403 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,800 Landry, Chuck Null, any other any other great NFL luminary 404 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,240 name that you want to throw out? I'll take Parcells and I'll take 405 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:04,920 my chances. But even the great Bill 406 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,480 Parcells. Had a massive miscalculation in 407 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,600 99 when he got hurt because he kept running Rick Meyer out 408 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,680 there and Rick Meyer was doing nothing. 409 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,880 Remember early draft picks, second or third, I think overall 410 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,240 out of Notre Dame and then The Jets picked them up. 411 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,240 Whatever. And our boy, I love him. 412 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:22,880 I've known him for a long, I haven't seen him in a while, but 413 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,040 I love him. Used to see him a lot. 414 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,520 Ray Lucas is on the bench and you know, I guess Bill didn't 415 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:28,920 think he could handle the quarterback spot. 416 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,840 Kept rolling Rick out there, Myra, Myra, Myra, lost, lost, 417 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:35,240 lost. And then he finally inserts Ray 418 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,920 Lucas and guess what happens? The Jets win and they finished 419 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:39,920 8:00 and 8:00. So that was a massive 420 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,760 miscalculation that if it was made earlier, Jets probably 421 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,320 would have been a wild card team, not that it would have 422 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,920 changed the the the trajectory of The Jets franchise. 423 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,320 I'm not saying that. What I'm saying is every great 424 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:55,840 coach messes up. So I'm not trying to be 425 00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:01,040 unnecessarily critical or overly critical or unfair to John 426 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,720 Harbaugh. I am just literally pointing out 427 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,680 some of the numbers and it is astounding to me. 428 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,000 It's not surprising. It's 5 levels past that. 429 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:15,280 It's astounding to me that the narrative within the giant fan 430 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,600 base right now, I don't want McCarthy, I want Harbaugh. 431 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,560 What's the difference? Can somebody point that out? 432 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,560 What is the difference? What is the difference? 433 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,960 He's not younger like Stefanski, right? 434 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,000 It's not like one of them was with an awful franchise like 435 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,800 Stefanski. And you believe with a more 436 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,280 stable franchise, they'll be in an immediate uptick in elevation 437 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,520 meeting Their ceiling could be higher than a horrible or that's 438 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,720 not it. Because let's face it, even 439 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,960 though Jerry Jones is whacked out of his mind, love Jerry, but 440 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,640 he's he's whacked out and Dallas is going nowhere. 441 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,200 I mean, they're not The Jets, they're not the Cardinals. 442 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:54,400 We know that, you know what I mean? 443 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,280 So they're not the Dolphins. I just I don't understand it. 444 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:03,320 It's OK to be really, you know, pro horrible. 445 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,320 I just don't get the anti McCarthy stuff. 446 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,000 And I do think that's what I said before. 447 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,880 I think that part of it is the visual part of it. 448 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,080 I mean, listen, I'm going to give you guys enough credits. 449 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:19,080 I think most of you know the game, understand the game, love 450 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,000 the game. It's your oxygen. 451 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,000 You know, of course we become we're fans and we get hijacked 452 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,320 and we lose a little sensibility. 453 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:26,720 That happens to everybody, right? 454 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:32,440 But I think most giant fans are are incredibly well versed in 455 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:37,280 the game of football, not just the hot take or call it a show 456 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,400 or drop it. Its wee Giant fans are 457 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,440 phenomenal. But the way this has been to me 458 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:46,640 very improperly positioned is is again, it's astounding to me. 459 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,800 And I think part of it is the visual. 460 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:54,880 When you see John Horbaugh, you see a square jawed, you know, in 461 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:59,040 charge kind of guy. He just presents physically his 462 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,800 pure physical attributes differently. 463 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,960 And then you look at McCarthy and he looks a little sloppy and 464 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:06,760 whatever. And that's fine. 465 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,760 I mean, if you if you want the better looking coach, I don't 466 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,160 care what the hell the coach looks like. 467 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,960 But like if you want the coach that you think it looks better, 468 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,520 then that's fine. And I don't even think that 469 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,440 that's your primary source of like that's not driving you to 470 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,400 that obviously. But I think somewhere, and I 471 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,600 can't prove it, but what I can prove is that a lot of the 472 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,440 McCarthy slander is wrong factually and misguided. 473 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:34,560 And some of the overhyped Harbaugh stuff is also 474 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,800 statistically off and a little bit hijacked as well. 475 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,480 I, I, I really do believe that. Again, the numbers are the 476 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,400 numbers. I mean, it's not like one guy's 477 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,880 coached 27 years and one guy's coached 13 years. 478 00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:48,440 And I'm sitting here trying to extrapolate these numbers and 479 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,480 make sense of it. It's literally 18 years, 18 480 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,920 years, 61 percent, 61% winning percentage, one Super Bowl, 1 481 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,280 Super Bowl, same age, it's 63 and 62. 482 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,360 Like you cannot. I don't know in the I mean, 483 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,200 maybe I'm a victim of hyperbole here for a moment. 484 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:11,000 Been known to do that on occasion when I get excited or 485 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,360 mad, but you cannot tell me that there's not a chance. 486 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,000 And and I would have to take a pretty good chance that there 487 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:23,480 has never been like such an even measurement for one of the one 488 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:27,800 of the marquee jobs in in our city than we have right now. 489 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,800 And I don't even really think McCarthy's that much in play for 490 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,720 the Giants. Like I think it's obviously 491 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,680 Stefanski's there. But you know, like when the 492 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,640 Knicks have made their moves, it's not like the Knicks were 493 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,120 looking at all right, here's coach X here's coach Y. 494 00:24:38,120 --> 00:24:39,600 They've done basically the same thing. 495 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,080 Who do we hire? I mean, it's like, all right, I 496 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,640 mean, let's take a flyer on Horta SEC or, you know, 497 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,560 whomever, right, Fizdale, How's that for data? 498 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,760 You know, where is this is just it's like looking in the mirror. 499 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,800 Only when you look at the reflection, obviously they 500 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,080 physically look different. That's about it. 501 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:06,280 But you would you listen to a lot of the energy today and you 502 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,760 would think that Pat Riley's coming to save Patrick Ewing's 503 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,760 career. This is not like there are just 504 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,280 certain coaches. Phil Jackson when he went to the 505 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,720 Lakers, of course not. Not Phil when he came to, when 506 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,480 when he came to the Knicks, not to coach, of course. 507 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,120 Of course the Knicks hire him to do something he's never done. 508 00:25:25,120 --> 00:25:27,240 And that didn't work out well, as we know. 509 00:25:28,360 --> 00:25:32,200 Phil going to the Lakers, Colby and Jack or Pat Riley coming 510 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,680 here or even Pat Riley going to the Heat with that crew, right? 511 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:38,200 This is not that. It doesn't mean that it can't 512 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,000 equate to a championship. It could. 513 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,240 But like this foregone conclusion, it's just a little, 514 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,280 it's a little too far down the road for me. 515 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,440 Like the Nope, no other options. Gotta be John. 516 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,240 He's the best. Not even close. 517 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:59,000 Well, I, I just gave you numbers that completely contradicts that 518 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,440 opinion. And if you want to fight math, 519 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,480 if you want to refute that, be my guest. 520 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,440 I mean, I'll debate anything. One thing I'm not arguing is 521 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,320 numbers. I mean, you're either hitting 522 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,080 three or one or you're not. Well, you're hitting with a lot 523 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,040 of bad luck. What's your average dude? 524 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,760 What are you hitting? You know, because over the 525 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,680 course of a full season, that's probably going to be fairly 526 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,520 emblematic of the kind of season and the kind of bats that you 527 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,040 had. So I listen, I, I think that 528 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,400 this is incredibly interesting. I think it's, I think it's 529 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:31,400 awesome that the Giants are going to wind up either way with 530 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:36,880 a really good coach. I really do believe that, you 531 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,200 know, but they got to make sure they don't mess this up and say, 532 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,560 well, I do think the Giants will be able to stabilize their 533 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,800 organization, particularly if it's somebody like a horrible or 534 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,800 even or McCarthy or even a Stefanski who I know that they 535 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,360 like. I do think that they'll they're 536 00:26:51,360 --> 00:26:56,280 going to much more closely resemble the Giants that we have 537 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,000 all that respect and affection for. 538 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,480 Then this dysfunction basically turning into The Jets. 539 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,360 Like I, I think that I think that those days are coming to an 540 00:27:05,360 --> 00:27:07,560 end. I do got the quarterback and 541 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,800 then, you know, now the other situation too, like, well, you 542 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,200 got Joe Shane here. Well, all right, then you know 543 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,160 that I don't think Joe Shane should be back, but he is. 544 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,160 So you're not going to fight City Hall because it's already 545 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,680 it's already happening. Now what if John Horbaugh says 546 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,720 I'm not working for Shane? Well, then they've got to make a 547 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,400 decision. And at that point, I mean, who's 548 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,120 the better at who's been better at their job, Shane or Horbaugh? 549 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,640 Well, obviously you would you would acquiesce to Horbaugh. 550 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,680 I don't know if they would. Maybe it's more along the lines 551 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,360 of, hey, it's going to be, I hate that word, but you can get 552 00:27:35,360 --> 00:27:37,840 it worked in contractually where it would favor Harbaugh. 553 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,360 It's a collaborative effort, right? 554 00:27:40,360 --> 00:27:44,120 And then year one for Harbaugh and and of course Shane, year 555 00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:47,880 4-5, whatever it is at that .4. Wait, 123, I guess 4. 556 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,160 I don't even know all those bad seasons at 4-5 where if it 557 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,320 doesn't go well, then show Shane's gone and then it's 558 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,200 written into the contract horrible or McCarthy or 559 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,600 Stefanski or whomever. Now they've got their say in 560 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,920 terms of who comes in as a general manager. 561 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,480 I mean, I would I would think that would be very appealing to 562 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,600 somebody like John and one of these higher level coaches. 563 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,760 Listen, the money's going to be the money's going to be there. 564 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,400 There's no doubt the Giants are cutting the check. 565 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,400 How much you want, dude? 12 million a year, 1314, What's 566 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,520 the number? Whoever they said. 567 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,920 And no, Stefanski's not going to get that because he hasn't 568 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,480 earned that. But if that's what horrible 569 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,960 wants and that's who the Giants want, then that's what he's 570 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,280 going to get. Mr. Mayor, Mr. Tisch, they'll 571 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,560 cut the check. That'll be done. 572 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,800 Business handled. But let me throw this at you, 573 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,920 and I kind of touched on it, but let me give you a worst case 574 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:38,480 situation just for a moment. I don't think this will happen, 575 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,440 but they've got to be very aware that it does not. 576 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,760 All right, So worst case would be. 577 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,600 Now you've got to you've. Got to factor in the Miami's of 578 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,760 the world, the Bucks of the world, the Dallas of the world 579 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,080 and Cincy. Got to factor those in, put them 580 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,160 to the side for a moment. And I just talked about 581 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,920 McDermott. I like McDermott, like he's my 582 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,800 kind of coach. They're always competitive. 583 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,960 They're really good. You know, maybe he's not quite 584 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,160 that top tier, but and there's an expiration point on that when 585 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:07,320 you've got a franchise quarterback. 586 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,760 I understand that. So it's easy for me as a Jets 587 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,360 fan or just a football observer to say, I mean, he'd be an asset 588 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,320 for any team that's trying to get competitive and eventually 589 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,640 beyond that. But when you the bills, their 590 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,320 their scope of criticism and expectation is very different 591 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,600 than the bad teams. All right, the Raiders, The 592 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,400 Jets, etcetera, the Browns again, the the Cardinals. 593 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:32,960 So let if the Bills don't win and like if they lose a tight 594 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,280 one and and and there's no egregious like missed calls or 595 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:40,920 bad challenges or whatever it might be, I don't think they'd 596 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,320 get rid of McDermott. But if they lose and the Jaguars 597 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,240 are not a team I would want to see right now, that's that's one 598 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:46,640 of the last teams I want to see right now. 599 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,200 By the way, I think the Jaguars win the game. 600 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:49,800 I'll make it. I'll make the picks on Friday. 601 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,680 I'd like the Jaguars to send the Bills home. 602 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,800 But if they do and it's sloppy and it's like, I'll just throw 603 00:29:55,800 --> 00:30:00,600 something out for you 3117 and there's an egregious call where 604 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,000 there's a bad challenge or just something's or they're not ready 605 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,720 to play what it whatever it might be, and it reflects poorly 606 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,080 on the coach. I think there's a good chance to 607 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:09,520 get rid of McDermott. And at that point, you'd 608 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:14,720 probably be very justified to say, yeah, excuse me, it's 609 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:16,840 probably time to do that, right? It's probably time. 610 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:18,800 And I think Bills fans would want that. 611 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:20,920 You know, maybe some of the Bills players would lament the 612 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:22,560 move. But I I think that that would be 613 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,000 in play. I think it should be. 614 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,520 And it very well might happen. And if that happens, you don't 615 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,040 think John Horbaugh would rather go coach Josh Allen? 616 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,240 I love Jackson Dart. Who would you rather coach the 617 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:32,440 next five years? Right now? 618 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,400 I'd rather coach Josh Allen. Right. 619 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,040 So the Bills are a wild card in this equation. 620 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:42,080 I don't think that, I don't know, maybe I don't know why I 621 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,320 think this. I can't really base it on 622 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,160 anything. Maybe because I just think 623 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:46,760 Philly, I, I don't know, Philly's just a little 624 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,160 different. But if Philly plays poorly 625 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,680 against San Francisco, you know, the Sirianti train might stop 626 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,840 moving, you know, Choo Choo time to get off. 627 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,360 And he coached there for 9 years back in the day. 628 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,720 So, you know, there's a there's a familiarity, there's, I would 629 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,840 imagine a respect and a trust and a lot of people in that 630 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,840 building, maybe not a lot, but certainly some people of of of 631 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:11,080 power that would be appealing to reunite from John's point of 632 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,600 view, that's the Eagles situation right now. 633 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,080 These are all just possibilities, but I'm 634 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:16,680 presenting it for a greater issue here. 635 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,200 All right now, Steelers lose to home. 636 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,320 If the Steelers lose a home game to Houston, and I actually like 637 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,120 Houston in that game as well. I don't think the Steelers are 638 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,920 that good at all. I think the Texans will win 639 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:27,240 here. I am saying I'll give you the 640 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:28,720 picks on Friday. I'm basically giving you every 641 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:29,960 pick. I'll give you the actual point 642 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,360 spreads and that stuff. I'll do that stuff on Friday. 643 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,080 But I do like the Texans to win when they win. 644 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,880 And if they win, well, if it doesn't look good, you know, 645 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,200 aesthetically, because there's been a lot of chirping around 646 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,120 Mike Tomblin for a couple years now, well, then Mike Tomblin 647 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,360 might be fired. And then not that he's going to 648 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,160 take the Steelers job necessarily, although maybe to 649 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:49,480 stick it to the rabbit, you never know. 650 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,800 You never know, you never know. But I would probably say no to 651 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:54,880 that. His end. 652 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,600 But now what happens is Mike Tomlin enters the chat and now 653 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,920 the Giants would have to do their due diligence and talk to 654 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,200 him. Otherwise, they're just missing 655 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,080 the mark. Mike Tomlin's free, you talk to 656 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,800 Mike Tomlin, Mike Tomlin wants the same amount of money John 657 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:08,560 Harbaugh wants. Well, then he gets the same 658 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,080 amount of money you'd be willing to get to John Harbaugh, period. 659 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,040 I mean, you guys to debate that I'm not. 660 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,440 I think I think that they're right on the same plane I do. 661 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,840 They've got some flaws, but they're also, you know, in 662 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,920 totality, outstanding NFL success, successful coaches, 663 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:27,680 leaders of men, emotionally stable, You know, you know what? 664 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:29,720 You're getting winners. That's it, right? 665 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:34,240 So those are situations there. And then again, the Miami, the 666 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,880 Bucks, the Dallas Cincy. So while there are 7 openings 667 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,800 right now, the Raiders are #7 the Ravens aren't going to fire 668 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:42,360 Harbaugh and then bring Harbaugh back. 669 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,720 So there's six situations that you've got to really look at, 670 00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,160 right? That's one thing I got to get 671 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:50,480 used to in the. Office among several things 672 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,960 here, a little bit of a different desk layout. 673 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:54,640 Got papers everywhere, so I got to find them. 674 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,360 Now, if you're horrible, let's just roll through it. 675 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,600 You want any you want anything to do with Arizona? 676 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,240 I mean, the answer is no, All right? 677 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:04,520 It's an awful quarterback situation. 678 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,920 And they've got $21 million in cap space. 679 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,200 That's not good. All right, now, what was it? 680 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,280 Buffering, guys. All right, hold on. 681 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,440 Are we good? All right, refresh. 682 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:15,760 But there you go. I guess that was more on your 683 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,680 end than my end. OK, so I hope it was on your 684 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,640 end, not my end because if if you hit me with a buffering in 685 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,440 the comments, it's one thing to figure out the mic. 686 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,920 I you know, I'd probably try to do something and refresh it and 687 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:28,840 I'd lose the stream. So I'm not touching anything. 688 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,080 All right, the Raiders, all right, the Raiders, obviously 689 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,520 Carroll wanted done, got the number one pick, got over $100 690 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:38,120 million in cap space. They've got 3-4 very high level 691 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,920 players, tight end, running back, one or two others. 692 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,280 Would that be an appealing destination for John Harbaugh? 693 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,400 I could be I mean, Tom Brady, that alignment there. 694 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,640 Now the Browns, obviously he's not going there. 695 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,320 Stefanski gone ownership situation awful. 696 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,640 They're 12 million over the cap. Why in the world would they do 697 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,200 that right? They why would he do that? 698 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:01,760 He wouldn't the Falcons Morris out now there's real concerns 699 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,680 around Pennix got hurt again. No first round pick from the 700 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,800 trade. When they moved up, they got 701 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,800 Bjean Robinson, you got Drake London, you got Kyle Pitch, got 702 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,239 a good old line, you've got got some stuff there that would be 703 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:14,880 maybe a little bit. To me, that's one of the top 704 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,120 three jobs. The Falcons maybe more appealing 705 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:18,639 to him. I don't know how we've used 706 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,320 going to the NFC or that division or living down South, I 707 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,080 don't know. And then you get the Titans. 708 00:34:24,159 --> 00:34:25,560 No. Does he like Cam Ward? 709 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,040 There's no way he can like Cam Ward more. 710 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:29,600 Jackson Dart. But it's a great city, it's a 711 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:32,000 great state. Tennessee's Blossom the last 712 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,280 decade big time. And they've got they've got a 713 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,000 lot of money. I think they've got about $100 714 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,600 million in free agent funds here. 715 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,440 And then there's nothing around them. 716 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:44,159 All right, So in terms of Cam Ward, if you even like Cam Ward. 717 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:49,840 So I don't think maybe outside of the Raiders maybe and the 718 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,639 Falcons, maybe, I don't think the Giants will have a lot of 719 00:34:52,639 --> 00:34:56,480 competition for horrible for this cycle. 720 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,760 If nothing wacky happens over the weekend, if the Bills don't 721 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:04,000 whack McDermott, if the Steelers don't fire Tomlin, you know, 722 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,080 Philly, we'll see what happens with Syrian, Syriani. 723 00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,640 There's just there's just a lot of things that are still 724 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:14,040 potentially doable and you've got to remain. 725 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,080 That's why I see you've got to really thread that needle and be 726 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,080 almost perfect here. You've got to remain incredibly 727 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:23,000 engaged with Stefanski. And then you got to be very. 728 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:24,720 And I'm sure they already are because they already did their 729 00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:28,080 work back when they fired Abel about the possibility. 730 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,240 And that's a good job by the Giant. 731 00:35:29,240 --> 00:35:30,320 That's something The Jets wouldn't do. 732 00:35:30,720 --> 00:35:33,120 Like The Jets wouldn't have that vision, that foresight. 733 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,200 Luckily for the Giant fans, the Giants had that internal, you 734 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,360 know, they're on the same page. And they they were, they were 735 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,360 able to at least devise a skeleton of a plan. 736 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,920 Hey, what happens if Harbaugh shakes loose? 737 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:50,920 And he has, and here we are. But let's say that you get a 738 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,880 situation where you remain engaged with Stefanski, who's 739 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,520 there right now. And and I know they like him and 740 00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,280 I'm sure he would like the Giants too. 741 00:35:59,960 --> 00:36:03,400 And you're obviously going to have a real serious conversation 742 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:04,960 and meeting all that stuff with horrible. 743 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,200 But while you're dancing with all these people, you have to 744 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,800 make sure that you're not left without a chair. 745 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:16,480 Now, if that would happen, I mean, I, I would say the 746 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,080 percentages of that happening happening are incredibly low. 747 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:24,520 I I would like, I would say like inside of 5%, I would say 748 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,680 almost, almost 0 where we're sitting here in a month coaching 749 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,760 cycle done roughly hirings done. Everybody who's been whacked has 750 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,080 been whacked. All the, all the top level 751 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,320 coaches who were desired by many on the open market. 752 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:40,480 They've already been signed. They're with their new teams. 753 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:45,480 They had the press conferences. Can you imagine Can you imagine 754 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:49,480 the situation where Harbaugh is with the Raiders? 755 00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:55,960 Tomlin either stays there or goes to the Falcons and 756 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,320 Stefanski's like, you know what, I thought they were serious and 757 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,680 I liked them, but they kind of just gave me the Heisman a 758 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:03,680 little bit while do it while they were doing their due 759 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,560 diligence and some other franchise of the other openings 760 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,200 that I just mentioned, not to mention some other openings that 761 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,320 I also mentioned that could open that made sense. 762 00:37:13,240 --> 00:37:17,240 Then Stefanski could say on a personal level, yeah, man, I I I 763 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,600 I Revere the giants brand and and you know, and and you know 764 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,720 what they meant to the league and I'd love to get my hands on 765 00:37:22,720 --> 00:37:25,280 Jackson dart and work with him and I got some good defenders 766 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,320 and I got some cap space, particularly after not this 767 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,720 year, the next year. They've got a they've got a ton 768 00:37:30,720 --> 00:37:32,880 of money still darts first contract. 769 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,280 Sure, there's many appealing checkpoints there. 770 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:39,840 But if you don't feel the love like or or I think even more so 771 00:37:40,720 --> 00:37:44,080 if you feel the love early, which I know Stefanski has been 772 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,080 and right now is in the process of still feeling. 773 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,880 And then it shifts and it becomes a little stale as those 774 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,720 wandering eyes, you know, somebody walks in the bar at 775 00:37:52,720 --> 00:37:53,680 somebody new. Who's that? 776 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,800 Excuse me, I'm right back. I have to go get AI have to go 777 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,600 get a drink, you know, and you kind of excuse yourself from the 778 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,440 conversation that you having and you never go back because 779 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,480 somebody more appealing to you walked in the bar. 780 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,440 You know what I mean? And if that happens, well, the 781 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,320 person who's left in the bar, even if you do meander back, 782 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,640 maybe you don't close the deal. Whatever happens, I'd be like, 783 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:19,920 get lost, not interested in you. So there's a lot of of of human 784 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:21,240 emotions at play. I know that. 785 00:38:21,240 --> 00:38:24,800 That sounds almost like too deep human emotions. 786 00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:26,640 Come on. We're talking football, we're 787 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,600 talking money, we're talking power, we're talking contracts. 788 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,640 Yeah, but at this level with most of these men against the 789 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,160 fans get ticked below. Horrible for sure. 790 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:37,760 And McCarthy, in my opinion, and. 791 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,200 And Tomlin, if he's free, there's still the like, the 792 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:45,440 human nature of it. And nobody wants to feel 793 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:49,400 ignored, Nobody wants to feel disrespected, and nobody wants 794 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,680 to feel marginalized. And the giants really need to be 795 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,440 careful with that. And I think that they will. 796 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,080 Like, that's the good news, but it's got to be perfect. 797 00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:00,720 We'll see. Oh man, I can't wait till I can 798 00:39:00,720 --> 00:39:01,760 throw out a phone. Number there. 799 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,360 So let me let me tell you one of the things about throwing out a 800 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:10,120 phone number right. So one thing I never did, it 801 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,320 drives me nuts. It's it is such lazy radio. 802 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,560 Like you start a show and you just throw out the phone number. 803 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,360 What the hell you throwing out the phone number for? 804 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:19,720 You haven't given me any reason to call. 805 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:21,880 And we all know the phone number. 806 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:23,680 You know the popular numbers, right? 807 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,200 We all know the phone numbers. Well, give me something to think 808 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,760 about and give me something like compel me to react and I'll 809 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,840 call. So like I that always, that was 810 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,920 always a lazy thing that bothered me that I always 811 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,440 really, I'm sure I did it early in my career, but really, really 812 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,160 tried to stay away from that. But the one thing, and this is a 813 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,560 little trick of the trade, and I think anybody who does this for 814 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:46,920 a living is able to do this it because it's an important tool, 815 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,200 especially if you by yourself. Like it's one thing if I got Sal 816 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:52,440 there, right? And I've got to clear my throat, 817 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,240 I've got to sneeze. I want to have a sip of water, I 818 00:39:54,240 --> 00:39:56,840 want to have a sip of coffee. I want to look at a note. 819 00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,560 You know, it's a, it's more of a stream of, of, of unfiltered 820 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,000 consciousness here. Like there's really no time to 821 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,720 wait, which is fine. I mean, I can talk all day, but 822 00:40:05,720 --> 00:40:07,840 it is nice once in awhile to have that little slight 823 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:11,600 interruption. And The funny thing is when I 824 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,000 get the phone number, which we've already bought and will 825 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,360 enable us to take calls, we've already secured that. 826 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,640 As I've told you. Then when you're it's it's an 827 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,440 amazing art. There's little side turns 828 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,480 amazing art, young, broad, young broadcasters. 829 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:24,960 You're going to want to learn how to do this right. 830 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:26,520 Where? All right. 831 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,840 Hey, you know, you know, Shane Dabel, is that you know, you got 832 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:31,880 you got horrible Tom Lemight get fired. 833 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:33,840 Then you drop it up triple 8, whatever it might be, right? 834 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,760 And as you're saying the number, because you're saying the 835 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,600 number, you're not even, you don't, you don't have to say to 836 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,840 yourself, what's the number? You know the number because it's 837 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,400 ingrained that you in your broadcasting mind. 838 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,360 As you're saying the number, you're actually simultaneously 839 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,720 collecting your next thought. And I can't do that yet because 840 00:40:50,720 --> 00:40:53,400 I don't have a phone number. Maybe I'll just throw start 841 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,560 throwing out random phone numbers and maybe that'll be a 842 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:57,400 fun thing. Maybe I'll just come up with a 843 00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:59,760 fake number now. I'll throw it out there and I'll 844 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,200 program myself as I'm throwing out this number that won't 845 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,000 connect to anything yet. I'll be able to, you know, kind 846 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,880 of move on to the next thought. Let me move on to this thought 847 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,400 real quick. I want to read some of these 848 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,280 some of these messages again. I, I, I hate that we're not up 849 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:15,240 on YouTube that yet. I mean, or, or that it's not 850 00:41:15,240 --> 00:41:21,040 back up the the traction for YouTube has been phenomenal. 851 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:23,280 And by the way, it's been really good on X as well. 852 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:25,400 And I appreciate that.

If you care about something, you 873 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,720 structure the show. You have, you know, a, a very 874 00:42:20,720 --> 00:42:22,400 clear idea where you're going to go. 875 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,040 Now, if something breaks and it's fresh, you pivot. 876 00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:30,760 You got to be able to do that. But the, the YouTube, the 877 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,600 ability with the messages and all that stuff was going on was 878 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,160 great. And I see messages here and 879 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:36,320 that's also I'm going to get to some. 880 00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:40,480 But what I what I really appreciate because I, I think it 881 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:44,040 really resonates with you, which speaks to, I think how you feel 882 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:45,760 about me. And I don't mean that in a in a 883 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,720 cocky, egotistical way at all. But as I said from day one, I 884 00:42:49,720 --> 00:42:51,760 feel a lot of you behind me. I feel it. 885 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:56,440 I feel that surge of support. I feel that surge of belief, the 886 00:42:56,440 --> 00:43:00,000 conviction that what we're doing now, which is phase one. 887 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,840 And I'm going to look back and on in five years and hopefully 888 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,880 be not embarrassed by the content. 889 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,080 Unless, of course, Harbaugh comes to the Giants and wins 3 890 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:08,720 and McCarthy goes somewhere else and does nothing. 891 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,680 I could be embarrassed by a take, but I'm going to look at 892 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,280 some of the early shows and like, wow, I was doing the first 893 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,320 show in my basement. My God, look, I didn't even have 894 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:17,840 the banner yet behind the studio. 895 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:19,480 So different. That's all good. 896 00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:21,960 But I do notice one of the themes because I do read the 897 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,640 comments and I do respond a lot. It's a very interactive aspect 898 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:27,560 of YouTube, which which is great, right? 899 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,920 A lot of you have said dude, and I appreciate this dude, don't 900 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,200 worry about the audio, don't worry about the look, don't 901 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:34,800 worry about this. Just keep doing what you like. 902 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:39,400 I think it's very clear to you guys that this is a completely 903 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,080 new platform and it's a completely new endeavor. 904 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:46,800 And you know what it's, it doesn't have to be perfect 905 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:48,320 early. It's got to be me. 906 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,920 And I do feel like when we're, when we're doing the sports 907 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,920 stuff, I feel, I mean, I, I may as well be in a radio studio 908 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:55,320 right now. I feel right at home. 909 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,400 So I did want to thank you guys for that because you know, I'm, 910 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:00,960 I'm aware of it and certain things happen. 911 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:02,480 Like you don't think I was embarrassed a little bit 912 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,000 yesterday with that audio. I'm like, sucks. 913 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,640 Like, you know, I had this whole show and I had some some real 914 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,760 things I couldn't wait to get into, you know, and it's it's 915 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:12,040 not her fault. She's trying to help me. 916 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,320 I got my wife outside thumbs up, thumbs down opening the door 917 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,760 audio this I see my head's going to explode here. 918 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,560 All I'm trying to do is just keep the train moving man and 919 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,000 transition into this. So when I see those comments, 920 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:29,400 they are sincere and I and I do really humbly accept that 921 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:31,800 because it it's not going to happen overnight, but it's going 922 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:37,080 to happen all right, because it already is Jets so. 923 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:39,520 I thought the press conference was a little. 924 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:42,960 Interesting at the end of the year press conference to the the 925 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:45,600 great historic franchise known as the New York Jets. 926 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,640 So I don't really care what Aaron Glenn says at this point. 927 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,720 There's nothing that Aaron Glenn could say that's going to change 928 00:44:53,720 --> 00:44:56,720 my opinion of Aaron Glenn. I thought he was fine. 929 00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:58,760 I mean, you know, he's not hitting a home run. 930 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,160 He's not striking out the bases loaded. 931 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,560 Like there's nothing that he could do where I would have been 932 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,520 like, that's it. He's the guy or you see, you 933 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,600 know, maybe people are right. He should have been fired. 934 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:12,320 Nothing that would have been said from him yesterday would 935 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,000 have altered my perspective at all. 936 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,840 Jets are a train wreck of a franchise. 937 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:22,720 They have had no consistency. Their roster was AD for half the 938 00:45:22,720 --> 00:45:25,000 season on. It was atrocious. 939 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:29,400 Backups of starters, backups to the backups were taxi squad guys 940 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,400 forced into action like one thing. 941 00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,800 And I definitely been known to overreact with certain things. 942 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:36,800 I get it, 'cause I'm passionate. And when you're passionate, 943 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,760 sometimes you get a little misguided with the energy that 944 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,880 you project with a certain topic because you care, all right. 945 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:47,520 But I'm, I'm actually very proud of myself in a very strange way. 946 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:49,400 Yeah. I didn't overreact like a lot of 947 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,400 you guys did with the way The Jets were finishing out the 948 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:52,760 season. What the hell do you expect? 949 00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,080 Oh, wow. They're losing 35 to 8 to the 950 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,120 Bills. I'm I'm surprised it's not 60 to 951 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:58,720 3. They're a little more 952 00:45:58,720 --> 00:46:02,800 competitive than I thought. Or the Patriots game. 953 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:06,200 Oh, God. You know, May just scored, you 954 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,440 know, 5 or 6 times in a row. What the Hell's going on? 955 00:46:08,720 --> 00:46:12,560 Played against maybe he may as well be be playing against 956 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,240 Indiana in a in a in a bowl game. 957 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,240 That's how bad The Jets defense was. 958 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,080 I didn't overreact to that at all. 959 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,760 So now I'm going to push Aaron Glenn aside for a little bit 960 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:26,520 here because unless the unless The Jets became incredibly bold 961 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:30,080 and forward thinking and proactive, and which is not 962 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,400 going to happen, spoiler, they're going to keep them for 963 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:36,200 next year, which I'm OK with because I want to see one more 964 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:37,440 year. And not because he played for 965 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:39,880 The Jets, because I want us. I do believe he's a leader of 966 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:43,000 men and I believe in those people with those qualities. 967 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,640 I do. And if I'm proven wrong and 968 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:48,440 they're terrible next year, which they might be, well then 969 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:49,480 we'll have a different discussion. 970 00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:51,960 Glenn's to the side. I thought the bigger take away 971 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:56,280 was Mooji because Muji was telling us, you know, and and 972 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:58,920 he's not wrong with all the assets that they have and you 973 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,920 know, 75 cent, they could even manipulate that further 974 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:05,920 restructure whatever all that fungible NFL money, which I 975 00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:07,560 mean, does anybody really understand the cap? 976 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:11,800 I mean, really, I mean, does anybody really truly understand? 977 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,680 And I mean, like from a legal literal point of view, because 978 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:17,440 I'm raising my hand, I'm straight up telling you I don't, 979 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,200 you know, the dead cap hits and this that, that. 980 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:25,080 I mean, you have teams that have that are $9 million under the 981 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,200 cap and suddenly they've got a surplus of funds by 9 things 982 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:31,960 that they did and now they're $37 million under the cap, which 983 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:35,880 to me makes no sense at all. So I don't even waste my time 984 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,600 trying to understand it. It is annoying. 985 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,120 I do like when I see that my team's got $75 million worth of 986 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:43,600 money. I mean, anybody can interpret 987 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:46,880 that as being good. So I'll take that as a win, but 988 00:47:47,240 --> 00:47:51,600 with that money, with all the draft capital, there's obviously 989 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:57,000 a way for Muji to really hasten their acceleration. 990 00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:00,080 And I believe that he will because of the two men on that 991 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,360 podium at the press conference yesterday, the one man that I 992 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:05,960 believe in the most is the GM more so than the coach. 993 00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:08,640 Because there were low level moves and nobody wants to get 994 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,160 it. Like I'm not going to get it. 995 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,120 Like nobody cares about some of the lower level moves that The 996 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,360 Jets made. But it showed, it showed a 997 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,040 willingness to be aggressive and proactive. 998 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:23,000 And coming from Denver that had a similar mindset being around 999 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:28,240 Sean Payton and having that that modern approach to team building 1000 00:48:28,240 --> 00:48:31,840 and roster construction, I really think The Jets actually 1001 00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:33,680 got their general manager higher right. 1002 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:36,520 I am incredibly confident in saying that now. 1003 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,400 We'll see. I mean, you know, you could 1004 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:40,800 still have the right guy, like they may have had the right guy 1005 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:42,680 with Joe Douglas, but you got the wrong quarterback. 1006 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:45,200 So in turn, you don't have the right guy in terms of the final 1007 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:46,160 grade. I understand that. 1008 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:49,800 That's very, very plausible. But one. 1009 00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:53,200 Thing that he said. You know how you know, he he 1010 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:58,640 kind of pushed it forward in a way that I appreciate, but that 1011 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:02,120 it like they're going to be pretty good pretty fast now. 1012 00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,840 That's good to hear because nobody wants to sit there, 1013 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,760 especially when you're a fan of a team that never wins and just 1014 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:09,560 get fed that nonsense every year. 1015 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:11,080 Well, it's going to take a while. 1016 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:13,280 You know, we got to really do this. 1017 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:16,240 And Rome wasn't built in a day and we got a lot of moves to 1018 00:49:16,240 --> 00:49:18,120 make. And, you know, we're nowhere 1019 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:19,920 near ready for prime time. We all work. 1020 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,320 We know that. So nobody really wants to hear 1021 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,200 that because it's a regurgitation of what we've 1022 00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:25,320 known our whole lives. All right. 1023 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:29,720 But what I do worry about a little bit, a little bit I want 1024 00:49:29,720 --> 00:49:32,960 to, I don't want to hijack this and go nuts, But the tone that 1025 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:37,280 he struck yesterday for the first time, I was a little a 1026 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:44,480 little a little fearful that for job security purposes, he might 1027 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:49,040 try to cut some corners and do some things to get The Jets 1028 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:52,080 competitive next year, which, by the way, might even work. 1029 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:56,320 You know you spend the money. Let's say they don't draft the 1030 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:57,560 quarterback. Here, let's say they can't get 1031 00:49:57,560 --> 00:50:00,560 Mendoza don't love more. OK, well, you got to get a 1032 00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,440 second receiver, preferably somebody who's big and a 1033 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:06,440 mightly, you know, red zone target 5050 balls opposite 1034 00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:08,040 Garrett Wilson. He got the online. 1035 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:11,360 Maybe you need one more and if they get the one more right guy 1036 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:13,600 in the online, Jets have a top five online in football. 1037 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:15,920 I'm not here to debate that. They just do period. 1038 00:50:16,240 --> 00:50:18,760 So and if you know that you know, if you don't, I don't know 1039 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:20,400 what to tell you. Jets online is going to be 1040 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,960 awesome. And if they get that receiver, 1041 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:27,200 one more old lineman, just functional quarterback play and 1042 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,680 a safety and a lot. And I know this is law. 1043 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:31,640 Anything else, buddy? What else you need there? 1044 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,000 But you know, a linebacker, a corner and they and they could 1045 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,400 do this because they've got all the money and all the draft 1046 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:40,000 capital. Well, it's it's not ridiculous 1047 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,360 to think even when you look at the schedule with some weak 1048 00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:46,160 teams next year, The Jets could go nine and eight, OK, Or I'm 1049 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:48,200 not even say beyond that, nine and eight. 1050 00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,400 How about this going into the final two or three weeks, 1051 00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:54,680 they're still, you know, the producers and the directors at 1052 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:58,240 CBS have the Chiron in the hunt and they've got to actually put 1053 00:50:58,240 --> 00:51:01,800 jets up there for once in December, you know, in the late 1054 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,000 division leaders, wild cards in the hunt, even if they're the 1055 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:09,200 last team in the hunt, right? At least I do think that there's 1056 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,600 a chance that they could actually do that, which will be 1057 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:18,040 great, provided it doesn't come at the expense of of sabotaging 1058 00:51:18,240 --> 00:51:21,880 building a championship team. Like I don't want them to bring 1059 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:25,200 in a ton of, you know, B minus players just to become 1060 00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,040 competitive and win a couple of games. 1061 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:31,040 I want them to really target champion A players and get more 1062 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,800 of those. And if you do that and you're 1063 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:37,320 more selective in in in finding those players and if you're not 1064 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:39,600 going to hit on all of them, obviously, and then you 1065 00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:44,760 supplement that with free agent money, well, that's different. 1066 00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:47,720 Excuse me, that's very different. 1067 00:51:47,720 --> 00:51:49,640 That's a way to build a team. And that's something that I 1068 00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:51,840 would certainly subscribe to. That's what I want. 1069 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:55,200 But I just fear is not the right word. 1070 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:58,480 Worry is not the right word. I just when I heard that, I'm 1071 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:02,960 like, because he's not a dummy and he heard the noise, so did 1072 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,120 Aaron. And that's why Aaron was saying, 1073 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:08,120 hey, thumb chest, not here, not here, thumb chest. 1074 00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:10,520 The thumb went to Aaron. Now it had to because he's the 1075 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,160 head coach and they were awful. But you don't think that Aaron 1076 00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:16,520 Glenn knows, Like if Aaron Glenn sitting around with Muji or 1077 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,400 sitting around with one of his buddies that he played with an 1078 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:22,360 A&M or an old Jet or talking to Coach Parcells on the phone, 1079 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:24,880 which he does, and they're having a drink. 1080 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,200 You know, they're having an honest conversation. 1081 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,480 You don't think that Aaron Glenn in a moment that he knows that 1082 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:33,640 wouldn't be captured by anybody but a great confidant and a a 1083 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:35,840 lifelong friend. You don't think he's going to 1084 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:38,480 say, man, we we just got no players, dude. 1085 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,640 We all know that. We know that. 1086 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,880 So I, I think that the it's impossible to grade him. 1087 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,760 Mooji's easier to grade. And that's why I give you the 1088 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:50,800 more belief in Mooji than Glenn right now. 1089 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:52,880 I just hope there's no shortcuts. 1090 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:56,480 But because as the noise got louder and the vitriol, which is 1091 00:52:56,520 --> 00:53:00,080 ever present and present and the level of toxicity with the New 1092 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:04,160 York Jets within the fan base, which I get, I get, and lot of 1093 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:07,520 times I've been a part of not all the time and not now. 1094 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,120 I'm not so that there's evidence there. 1095 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,040 But obviously I've jumped in face 1st and and been as loud as 1096 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:17,560 anybody over the years. And when that happens, Muji, 1097 00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:20,920 who's not from here, but he hears it and he feels it and he 1098 00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:23,680 knows it, all right? And who knows if what he's being 1099 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:25,880 like, all right, Hey, Mooj, you know, come on. 1100 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:27,840 Listen, I don't expect to win the Super Bowl next year, but 1101 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,080 let's go. We got to get this thing going. 1102 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:30,320 So it's embarrassing. Let's go. 1103 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:33,280 Which is perfectly within bounds for no one to say, by the way, 1104 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:36,080 but the way it's said. And if it's said a little 1105 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:39,360 differently, it could be messaging that Muji says like, 1106 00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:40,920 all right, man, that's the first sign. 1107 00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:42,360 I better get my act together here. 1108 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:45,680 I better get my ass and gear and start getting some players and 1109 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,680 again, that's why I say maybe there's some shortcuts that 1110 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:52,600 could develop that I hope don't and and we'll see, but I wanted 1111 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:54,120 to at least give you that on The Jets. 1112 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:57,920 Let's see here Samson yeah, I've just joined no YouTube again 1113 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,200 Yep, not yet. It's it's it's in the process. 1114 00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:03,240 There's a whole thing with their team that I can't control the 1115 00:54:03,240 --> 00:54:06,440 pace in which they do that, but they are working on it. 1116 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,520 So there we go That's I just wanted to give you that update 1117 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:13,640 there. Let's see here, let's see, let's 1118 00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,080 see, I want to get some by the way, if you guys have a question 1119 00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:19,440 here we go. If you can actually hashtag it 1120 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:24,600 with SBT, it's a little bit easier for me to decipher what 1121 00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:26,720 it like. I don't want to just be the guy 1122 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:29,480 and trust me, I appreciate it. But great show like I don't just 1123 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:31,440 want to read those. I don't think we I don't feel 1124 00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:34,400 the need to read those. I'd rather get something again, 1125 00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:36,240 keep them coming. If you actually think it's a 1126 00:54:36,240 --> 00:54:39,160 great show or off to the right start here BT unleashed. 1127 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:42,960 But at least, you know, kind of give me some stuffs, some up 1128 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,920 here that I can react to. And that's why YouTube's a 1129 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:47,640 little bit easier in that regard. 1130 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:53,440 So I'm kind of going here. This one from Maddie, BNY 63. 1131 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:56,080 What would the OC options be? But that's the question. 1132 00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:58,480 Horrible had lesser quarterback talent when he won the title. 1133 00:54:58,480 --> 00:55:00,320 True. When he had Lamar, he lost the 1134 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,760 Rivers, Mahomes and Allen. I understand that I don't know 1135 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:05,600 who he would bring in the OC as the OC. 1136 00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:06,920 This is, let me, let me let you in on this. 1137 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,720 This is very important. So and I learned this from Tiki. 1138 00:55:09,720 --> 00:55:11,040 I'm going to give Tiki some credit here. 1139 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:13,640 I learned this from Tiki Barber when we first started working 1140 00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:16,080 together. Really year one of the national 1141 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:20,400 show, which was a decade and a lot of it was really around The 1142 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,080 Jets of the giants, right? Like hiring a coach, I'll just 1143 00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:24,800 go out, get this coach. This is the coach to save The 1144 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,240 Jets. And he would always say, all 1145 00:55:27,240 --> 00:55:30,240 right, I, I, I hear you BT, but how's he going to build the 1146 00:55:30,240 --> 00:55:31,440 staff? Who's he bringing in? 1147 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:34,480 And my response, like my reflexive response was, I don't 1148 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:36,280 care. I like this guy's a coach. 1149 00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:37,960 Bring him in. He'll figure it out. 1150 00:55:38,240 --> 00:55:43,000 Well, you know, I've learned years ago that it's almost as 1151 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:48,000 important who you bring in as as it is who the head coaches. 1152 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:51,600 So I'm not saying that John Horrible could not assemble the 1153 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:52,960 staff. I'm not saying that at all. 1154 00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:55,320 But if you ask me, right, I think he could. 1155 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:59,520 But if you ask me who do I think and hire a the, the, the best 1156 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:02,240 staff and I'll throw I'll just go with McCarthy. 1157 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,760 I'll go with horribaugh and I'll go with Stefanski. 1158 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:10,080 I think Stefanski would be able to hire a really good staff. 1159 00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:13,080 He's young, he's got some connections. 1160 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,360 I, I, so I, I don't think that would be an issue for Kevin 1161 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:19,040 Stefanski. I think that McCarthy, because 1162 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,920 two different organizations, he's been out of the game for a 1163 00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:24,320 year. What smart people do they kind 1164 00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:27,600 of repackage themselves. And if you're a coach who gets 1165 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:31,600 fired and you take a year off, your mission is to make sure 1166 00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:33,600 that when you're in the next coaching cycle, which he 1167 00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:36,320 obviously is and will be for a lot of these teams. 1168 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,920 You have already assembled the the vision of what you think 1169 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:41,960 your staff would be. You've already reached out to 1170 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:46,240 people you've already gotten yeses firm no, Maybe. 1171 00:56:46,240 --> 00:56:49,960 Hey, we'll see, but I I promise you McCarthy already has that. 1172 00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:52,320 All right. Harbaugh does not because he 1173 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,120 just got fired. Now that doesn't mean that 1174 00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:56,400 Harbaugh can't assemble one. I think you'd have a better 1175 00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:58,720 chance to deal with than say Aaron Glenn coming in this year. 1176 00:56:58,720 --> 00:57:02,320 Obviously Wilkeshire was a train wreck That was an F so awful. 1177 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:06,680 But I also think that because he's been with one franchise for 1178 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,360 so long. What are I'm not saying there's 1179 00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:11,640 none, but I'm just having the conversation, making the point. 1180 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:16,880 What league wide connections does John Harbaugh have access 1181 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:20,960 to that are viewed as assets that are also currently 1182 00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:22,480 available? I don't know. 1183 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,840 I don't know. Now I could be wildly off based 1184 00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:27,440 on this. Not the premise of assembling a 1185 00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:31,080 staff, but if you ask me of the three names, who do I think has 1186 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,120 the chance to to assemble the best staff? 1187 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:39,240 I would probably say McCarthy 1, Stefanski 2 and Harbaugh 3. 1188 00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:41,640 Now that might not matter to you because some of you for some 1189 00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:45,360 crazy reason still think that Harbaugh is some, you know, 1190 00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:49,480 prodigy and miles better than McCarthy when all the data says 1191 00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:52,280 they're they're the same exact guy, same age, same year's 1192 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,480 coach, same winning percentage, one Super Bowl, whatever. 1193 00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,040 And I don't want to reset it. Now if you guys missed it, just 1194 00:57:57,040 --> 00:57:59,320 go back and rewatch it. And by the way, this will be 1195 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,200 uploaded to the YouTube page. I can do that. 1196 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:05,400 I just can't go live on YouTube, which is frustrating. 1197 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,400 That's the that's the issue. I can still upload stuff which I 1198 00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:10,920 I uploaded yesterday's show, which was about the Knicks. 1199 00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:13,440 So if you missed that, you know, I've been supporting these 1200 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:14,840 Knicks here. I went in on them yesterday. 1201 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:16,000 There's some real issue with the Knicks. 1202 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,480 If you missed it, you could go that, you know, BT unleashed, 1203 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:24,040 YouTube, it's there for you. But I, I, I think that part of 1204 00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:27,560 the part of the problem for Horribaugh is that he's been 1205 00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:30,520 there for 20 years, 2 decades, basically. 1206 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,320 Now you're leaving a building and you're going to have to 1207 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:35,400 assemble an entire step. You're going to get names, 1208 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:37,760 you're going to get people that are going to come want to work 1209 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,000 for you that are going to want to surround themselves with a 1210 00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,200 quarterback like Dart and from a defensive quarter, you know, 1211 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,920 guys like Burns and I think that they might trade Thibodeau. 1212 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:47,960 I would trade came on Thibodeau, but I don't know what they'll do 1213 00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:51,920 with that, but I would but Burns and, and obviously Carter, who 1214 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:53,960 started to really flash the year went on. 1215 00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:56,760 You know, you add a safety at a corner, you have Dexter, you 1216 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:58,160 have something better on the third level. 1217 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:00,160 Dexter's better because now there's guys who recovered. 1218 00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:01,800 Whatever, it all goes hand in hand. 1219 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,120 I do think there'll be a lot of people that would want to go and 1220 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,160 work for horrible. The question is, have they done 1221 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:10,200 the job anywhere? I I don't know the answer to 1222 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:11,280 that. I'm just saying it's going to be 1223 00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:13,080 a little bit more of a challenge than you think. 1224 00:59:13,520 --> 00:59:22,680 All right, let's see. All right, McCarthy had Rogers 1225 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:27,000 for 12 years and Harbaugh had Flacco for 11, that's Robert 1226 00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:29,120 Kelly. So that's basically what Roberts 1227 00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:32,200 doing is Roberts saying, and I, and I get this, all right, I'll, 1228 00:59:32,320 --> 00:59:34,160 I'll dress it again a little bit, but a little differently. 1229 00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:38,360 So Roberts say like, because I am on some level, well, first 1230 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:41,120 I'm just acknowledging the, the way their resumes are basically 1231 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:46,800 identical #1 #2 I choose to penalize Harbaugh for never 1232 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:50,240 winning with Lamar and too often losing big games with Lamar. 1233 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:52,640 Two time MVP who's still in his 20s. 1234 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,520 It's like he's 36. You know, he, he's so he very 1235 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:58,560 he's, he's at the prime of his powers is what I mean. 1236 00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:02,320 And if there's ever a window to win, it was, you'd have to think 1237 01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:04,640 it was kind of the window that expired on John Horbaugh, which 1238 01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,480 is why he's out of a job. So if I'm saying that about 1239 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:11,560 Horbaugh, why would I not say that about McCarthy who had 1240 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:14,040 Aaron Rodgers for 12 years? No, that's fair. 1241 01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:16,920 That's fair. I'm not saying that, McCarthy. 1242 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:19,520 I'm not elevating him beyond Harbaugh. 1243 01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:21,920 I'm just merely putting him on the same plane. 1244 01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:24,120 Now, it all comes down to personal preference. 1245 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:28,720 Little discipline interacts with the media, you know, overall 1246 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:31,800 building philosophies, adaptability, whatever. 1247 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,080 How you impress in the interview, Like there are 1248 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:37,880 variables that I think very well might separate John John 1249 01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:42,280 Harbaugh from Mike McCarthy, but just based on the track record 1250 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:44,840 and what they've already literally done. 1251 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,480 It's not accurate to say. That John Harbaugh is a better 1252 01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:51,960 coach than Mike McCarthy. That's all that was. 1253 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:53,440 But that's good. That's that's true. 1254 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:55,920 That's why Mike McCarthy doesn't have a job right now. 1255 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:58,680 Like if Mike McCarthy, even if Davos would have whacked him 1256 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:01,080 after the seven. And by the way, McCarthy first 1257 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,360 three years in Dallas, twelve wins, twelve wins, twelve wins, 1258 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:07,600 7 All right and all right, They're not the Browns, not The 1259 01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:10,720 Jets, but the level of dysfunction trading guys, the 1260 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,240 nonsense, the noise, the attention. 1261 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,360 Kind of like the Yankees. Yankees win 94. 1262 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:18,600 Yankees get harpooned, you know, Dallas wins 12 games, doesn't 1263 01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:20,520 win the Super Bowl, Giants get horrible. 1264 01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:22,880 It's a different standard. So there's a lot of noise there. 1265 01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:25,560 And and that's that's one of the other reasons why I like 1266 01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:27,640 McCarthy because he's dealt with that. 1267 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:30,280 When you're the coach in Green Bay, I know it's a smaller 1268 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:33,440 market, but when you're the coach of the Packers and when 1269 01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:37,680 Lampardi coach there and you've got that fabled venue and you, 1270 01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:40,360 you know, Farve was that you've got Rodgers and it's 1271 01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:42,480 championship or bust. And those fans, that's their 1272 01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:45,920 whole world. Yeah, there's not 8 million 1273 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:49,880 people floating around the area, but they're the energy is 1274 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,040 palpable. I would I would actually say 1275 01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:57,360 that the noise in Green Bay, I can't prove this, but the noise 1276 01:01:57,360 --> 01:02:00,440 in Green Bay when something goes awry for the Packers is like 1277 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,440 more concentrated and more uniform than the noise when 1278 01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:06,240 something when something goes awry for The Jets or the Giants. 1279 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:09,360 And I'm just going to take a stab and see if this theory is 1280 01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:11,200 true. And if it is, that's another 1281 01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:12,520 reason why I really like McCarthy. 1282 01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,920 Now, first of all, you've got 2 football teams. 1283 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:18,280 So in Green Bay, everybody's a Packer fan. 1284 01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:21,840 Everyone here, you know, I'll, I'll say, what do you think 1285 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:24,440 guys? 60% Giant fans, 40% Jets. 1286 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:28,160 Maybe you want to tell me 6535 in favor of the Giants? 1287 01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,960 I, I don't know what the I know it's not 5050, so I'm not going 1288 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:32,560 to be delusional. Of course the Giants have more 1289 01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:36,480 fans, but whatever they have, they've got around 35 to 40% of 1290 01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:40,240 the people who would react to football not really reacting. 1291 01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:42,400 Not that they don't they don't have an opinion, but there's 1292 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:45,480 that the passion and the pressing nature and the vitriol 1293 01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:48,800 call in tweeting, texting, booing in the stadium. 1294 01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:51,920 If you're a Jets fan and the and the Giants flush away a lead 1295 01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:54,000 against Chicago, do you really care? 1296 01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:57,080 No, you don't care. Now, maybe you called me and Sal 1297 01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:59,080 and you make it a Jets point and maybe you reference something 1298 01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:01,680 about the Giants, but that's not your main mission. 1299 01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:04,560 Whereas I, and I say because I don't think that you could 1300 01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:06,760 escape the noise in Green Bay at all. 1301 01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:12,320 Everywhere you go, Packer fan, Packer fan, Packer fan, Packer 1302 01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:15,600 fan, Packer fan. You could go here and you know, 1303 01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:20,520 you could be on 5th Ave. you could be in certain pockets of 1304 01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:23,960 our boroughs that, you know, orange dyed in the wool, the 1305 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:26,000 American football fans. That's, that's one of the great 1306 01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:28,280 things about our area. It's an incredible melting pot. 1307 01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,480 You get everything. And when you have everything, 1308 01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:33,080 not everybody cares about the same thing. 1309 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,600 So I would actually, while there's fewer people, I would 1310 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:40,160 actually, I do believe that the noise and the evaluation is 1311 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:43,920 harsher and the reaction is harsher there than here because 1312 01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:46,160 there's a lot of distractions here, not to mention that 1313 01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:47,600 everybody's a Giants fan or Jets fan. 1314 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:52,040 So the fact that McCarthy dealt with that and then went to 1315 01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:56,000 Dallas and dealt with the Jerry nonsense and that that brand 1316 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,720 recognition, every game is a national game. 1317 01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:00,720 You know, it's it's Buck, it's Akman. 1318 01:04:00,720 --> 01:04:02,840 If it's, if it's on CBS, it's Troy. 1319 01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:06,680 I mean, pardon me, it's it's it's Romo and it's Nance Sunday 1320 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:09,640 night, Monday night, Thursday night, like it's Dallas. 1321 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:12,360 All right, So I think he's fully equipped to deal with this. 1322 01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:15,680 I'm not saying that John's not. I just think when I really look 1323 01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:19,200 at this and I was sitting at my son's basketball game last night 1324 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:22,160 when and and and most of the dads are giant fans, very few 1325 01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:24,080 jet fans and we're in the stands, right. 1326 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:27,480 And I was I was actually I was trying to resolve the YouTube 1327 01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:30,040 issue still. So I'm at the stands there 1328 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:31,640 warming up on the layup line, whatever. 1329 01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:35,600 And one of my one of my good friends in town, my son's best 1330 01:04:35,600 --> 01:04:39,600 friend, his his buddy's grandfather, great guy, great 1331 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:41,280 spice, sit with him in a lot of games, love him. 1332 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:43,520 And he and he knew I was in the middle of something. 1333 01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:45,040 He said, hey, not, not not to interrupt. 1334 01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:46,560 He said, did you see Harbaugh just got fired? 1335 01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:48,320 I'm like, yeah, that's one of the things I'm juggling it. 1336 01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:49,880 Yeah. And then I I got to talking to 1337 01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:53,240 him with a few others and it was the consensus was got to get 1338 01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:55,760 horrible, must get John Harbaugh, must get him for the 1339 01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:59,880 Giants, no other option. And all I'm saying is, yeah, 1340 01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:02,120 there should be. That's all I'm saying. 1341 01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:06,320 And if John Horbaugh is the coach, Giants will have made out 1342 01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:09,720 fantastically. If Mike McCarthy is the coach or 1343 01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:13,840 Mike Tomlin, I think the Giants will have had a massive, massive 1344 01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:16,800 winning day. All right, Even Stefanski. 1345 01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:20,320 I really like Stefanski. I do, you know, it just it, it 1346 01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,720 really comes down to how you present this, right? 1347 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:26,080 And that's why I like certain things You can manipulate, but 1348 01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:29,560 you can't manipulate literal numbers, but you can provide a 1349 01:05:29,560 --> 01:05:32,240 context within those numbers that could manipulate or at 1350 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:35,200 least maybe reshape the tone and the direction of the 1351 01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:37,360 conversation. And what I mean by that is 1352 01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:40,000 again, when when you're Stefanski, think about all the 1353 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:41,840 quarterbacks that he had in Cleveland. 1354 01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:44,760 Two time coach of the year, 2, not 1-2. 1355 01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:47,360 He's 46 years old. These other guys are in their 1356 01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:51,280 60s and they each have one Super Bowl and what, 1 coach of the 1357 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:54,320 year? So that that's context where I, 1358 01:05:54,320 --> 01:05:56,560 I believe that there could be an elevation. 1359 01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:57,720 And I don't think it would be without merit. 1360 01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:00,120 I don't think it would be without justification to at 1361 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:04,040 least keep Stefanski in the meat of this conversation. 1362 01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:09,080 Like it's not horrible McCarthy and then Stefanski, like, you 1363 01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:12,160 know, concession. All right, I, I guess, you know, 1364 01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:13,920 horrible, didn't want to come here or whatever. 1365 01:06:14,280 --> 01:06:15,960 I don't know, whatever the situation might be. 1366 01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:17,400 All right, let's roll out this guy. 1367 01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:21,120 We got AC plus coach Stefanski's really good and he's been he's 1368 01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:25,880 been really good a couple of times for one of the most trying 1369 01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:29,480 pathetic situations in all the sports. 1370 01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:33,280 And, and I do think that there there should be, you should be 1371 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:36,080 rewarded for that. And that should be incorporated 1372 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,360 rather than just he's won 46% of his games. 1373 01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:41,840 And you know, they were awful this year despite having a good 1374 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,440 defense and he's not as good as horrible. 1375 01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:47,040 I don't, I don't necessarily, I don't necessarily believe that 1376 01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:49,720 because I promise you. What do you think Bill Belichick 1377 01:06:49,720 --> 01:06:50,880 would have done with Lamar Jackson? 1378 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:52,040 Think it would have done a little more? 1379 01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:53,560 I do. I do. 1380 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,200 What do you think now? Now, maybe I was going to say, 1381 01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:57,920 what do you think Tom Complim would have done with Lamar? 1382 01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:02,880 Maybe that style would not have fit the way that Tom Coughlin 1383 01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:05,600 won the although Brunel ran a lot around a little bit with 1384 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:07,840 Jacksonville and it was very successful there. 1385 01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:10,160 I'm not the two championships that he had with the GMA. 1386 01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,080 What do you like? But successful for sure. 1387 01:07:12,080 --> 01:07:14,440 A real winning coach out there. Really good at Boston College, 1388 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:16,120 great coach, Hall of Famer, Coughlin's great. 1389 01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:22,360 But if let's say Coughlin was the same guy, all right, and he 1390 01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:25,240 was coaching Lamar these last seven or eight years, whatever 1391 01:07:25,240 --> 01:07:28,000 it is, and that guy won two MVPS. 1392 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:30,600 And I'm talking about a a modern version of Coughlin, Tom 1393 01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:34,240 Coughlin, you know, not not not the older version now, but still 1394 01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:37,320 well principled and disciplined and be on time and all that 1395 01:07:37,320 --> 01:07:40,360 stuff that you knew Tom Coughlin made you do without compromise. 1396 01:07:40,360 --> 01:07:43,440 But you know, modern in the sense that he grew up with the 1397 01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:45,680 way the games evolved at the quarterback position in terms of 1398 01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:47,760 letting guys move and more of a free flowing game. 1399 01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:51,560 If he had those concepts and smart people would adapt. 1400 01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:54,520 So I believe Tom Wood. Are you telling me that Tom 1401 01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:57,560 Coughlin wouldn't have had more success with Lamar Jackson and 1402 01:07:57,560 --> 01:07:59,120 John Harbaugh? Did I think he would have 1403 01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:00,920 Parcells? Yeah, I do. 1404 01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:04,400 I really do. I think that, you know, Pete 1405 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:07,320 Carroll, like not not with the Raiders with no chance, but 1406 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:10,520 younger Pete, with Seattle. I think Pete Carroll would have 1407 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:13,080 had more success. I think Mike Tomlin would have 1408 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:16,279 had Mike more success because you can make the case that they 1409 01:08:16,279 --> 01:08:19,279 basically had comparable success here, certainly these last 1410 01:08:19,279 --> 01:08:22,520 couple of years. And look at who he was rolling 1411 01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:24,680 out as his quarterback. You had Fields. 1412 01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:26,040 You had Russell Wilson. Yeah. 1413 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:28,840 Mason Rudolph, whatever the hell is that Rudolph made whatever 1414 01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:31,399 his name is, he stinks. You know what I mean? 1415 01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:36,560 So that's all that. Like the subtext within the big, 1416 01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:39,200 big issue. There's a lot to it. 1417 01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:42,439 I'm right for me. It doesn't mean that I'm right 1418 01:08:42,439 --> 01:08:45,160 for you. It's the beauty of this and I 1419 01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:48,160 think either way as this, this is the ultimate point I'm going 1420 01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:50,479 to get out of here. The best thing is that the 1421 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:54,439 Giants are going to walk away with a really good qualified 1422 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:56,000 winning coach. And really that's what that 1423 01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:59,479 that's what matters here. So I appreciate you guys hopping 1424 01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:02,560 in to see some questions. Now if you guys want to just 1425 01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:04,600 throw those questions on Twitter, maybe I could get to 1426 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:08,439 that a little bit more, see some stuff on Flores, some more on 1427 01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:13,560 Stefanski, some more questions about the OC, more questions 1428 01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:15,200 about YouTube. I already addressed that. 1429 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:17,800 Some stuff on Kingsbury. What do we got? 1430 01:09:17,800 --> 01:09:19,279 We've gone what, an hour and 10 minutes? 1431 01:09:19,279 --> 01:09:20,439 Yeah, we're good. I got it out. 1432 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:21,800 I feel good about what we talked about. 1433 01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:24,479 Hit me up on Twitter. Obviously go to YouTube. 1434 01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:27,840 We'll get that live stream going as soon as humanly possible. 1435 01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:31,319 Please throw me a bone here. I'm trying get this thing fixed 1436 01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:34,840 and we'll just continue to roll that out, add to it, I would 1437 01:09:34,840 --> 01:09:37,120 think. Now let me just show you this 1438 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:38,319 again. I know I've done this before. 1439 01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:43,200 Let me just show you one of the, I don't know if this is the 1440 01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:45,279 final background concept. I love it. 1441 01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:48,080 It's not a question of liking it, just to be fair. 1442 01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:53,359 It is more about being able to match up what's behind me so 1443 01:09:53,359 --> 01:09:56,000 that doesn't overwhelm me, which is not something I really 1444 01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:57,720 thought about. But why would I? 1445 01:09:57,880 --> 01:09:59,240 I never had to build a home studio. 1446 01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:01,920 But that's one logo that we're working on. 1447 01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:04,440 All right, BT Unleashed and that would that would be behind me 1448 01:10:04,440 --> 01:10:08,240 the entire wall. So that would be 1 That's a 1449 01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:09,760 little bit of a different version, a little bit of a 1450 01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:12,000 different color scheme. I I really like these. 1451 01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:14,800 I know a lot of you like these next ones coming up here. 1452 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:18,440 Let's see. And they definitely pop and 1453 01:10:18,440 --> 01:10:20,680 they're definitely in play. And I'd have to kind of maybe 1454 01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:23,880 tweak one or two things. This is one, right? 1455 01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:26,360 Many of you've seen that. I put that out there a lot. 1456 01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:28,960 This is 1 where it's a little bit of a different capture. 1457 01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:32,360 They're kind of like a night show, whatever, some neon there. 1458 01:10:32,480 --> 01:10:36,000 This is the the brick wall, not not coming out of the wall 1459 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:38,640 necessarily not exploding like one of those first concepts I 1460 01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:41,880 gave you. And this is more all right, 1461 01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:43,400 we've got a little, little more pop there. 1462 01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:46,200 And then I'd, I'd have those bookshelves kind of pressed off 1463 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:48,520 to the side there. So anyway, we're doing that. 1464 01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:51,720 I've got a phone call with with somebody today that I hopefully 1465 01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:54,680 will wind up producing the show who I've worked with in the 1466 01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:56,600 past. And then once we get that, then 1467 01:10:56,600 --> 01:11:00,160 we can start to integrate guests and then obviously we could 1468 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,480 start to integrate calls and, and, and all these things are 1469 01:11:02,480 --> 01:11:04,200 coming. I just wanted to thank you guys 1470 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:07,560 again for the support. And, and let's just let's just 1471 01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:12,400 go brick by brick by brick by brick, day by day content, 1472 01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:15,120 segment by segment. And that's what we're off to. 1473 01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:17,680 So go and, and subscribe. All right, the more you guys 1474 01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:19,960 subscribe, the more where I think we're at about 13,000 1475 01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:21,600 something right now, which is it? 1476 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:23,840 It's petered out a little bit because of the YouTube issue, 1477 01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:25,920 but we were just flying out of the chute. 1478 01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:29,600 Now the goal is once we get that back up and even now to keep 1479 01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:32,960 building that up because as you know, and as I've learned, you 1480 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:35,640 know, the algorithm and you know what, what, what puts the 1481 01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:37,640 content out there. And the more that this stuff 1482 01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:40,920 gets distributed, the more stuff that I can really do in terms of 1483 01:11:40,920 --> 01:11:44,280 bells and whistles for the show. So that is, you know, it's not 1484 01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:49,240 an idea, it's not a concept. BT Unleashed to make this 1485 01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:52,200 phenomenal is a mission. And it that is my stated 1486 01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:54,840 mission. So the more support that I have 1487 01:11:54,840 --> 01:11:57,400 behind the scenes, which is coming, the more support I have 1488 01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:59,400 from you guys. We're just going to keep picking 1489 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:01,280 up speed here and I think we're already off to a pretty good 1490 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,120 start. So have an awesome rest of your 1491 01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:05,080 day. By the way, now I wouldn't be 1492 01:12:05,080 --> 01:12:08,520 able to do this on YouTube yet, but if something happens, the 1493 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:11,480 Bellinger signing, the Mets, the Tucker something that is the 1494 01:12:11,480 --> 01:12:14,080 other beautiful thing about this when some now if I'm sitting in 1495 01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:16,080 the stands at one of my kids were coaching my daughter in 1496 01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:18,400 basketball, you know I'm going to have to come home and do it. 1497 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:21,360 But when something breaks, a big Knick game, something of 1498 01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:23,520 significance, Giants actually hire somebody. 1499 01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:26,040 Jets make a move. Whatever I'm popping on, we're 1500 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:27,600 going live and that's how we're rolling. 1501 01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:29,960 So I appreciate you guys. You definitely know that. 1502 01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:32,200 Have an awesome, awesome rest of your Wednesday. 1503 01:12:32,440 --> 01:12:35,240 Catch you tomorrow with 10 unless something breaks at some 1504 01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:36,640 point today. Bye bye.
