Bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out, bring em out. Oh, God, welcome in to the Captain Jay good morning show. Body SB in 1000 and we're streaming on the SB in Chicago app. With Chris Flacken for CAP, I'm Jay Hood. We've got Shay, we've got Jay Moore, we've got you for a three hour ride on this Monday morning with open phone lines for you 3-1-2. 3-3-2, ESPN, 3-3-2-3-7-7-6 is our phone number. Chris, it's good to see you. How are you, sir? What's up, Jonathan? Good weekend? I'm great. Did you enjoy yourself? What's sports going on over the weekend? Yeah, despite that, I still caught up on the bear. Oh, did you? Yes, I knew that we'd be working a lot together this week and I know that you and all of you were watching it. So, Peacock and I were catching up on the bear, so we'll talk about that. I knew we were working together as like, "Well, I better lock in on this for a few episodes." We are slow burning the heck out of it. I think we still have like four episodes left. So do we? It's like almost a weekly thing, but it's great. It's a great show. It's really a love letter to the city of Chicago. It is, and it shows the hard-working men and women of the city. Yeah, it's great. Only, you know, while you're trying to provide fine dining and beef sandwiches. Sure. But still, it's still hard-working people. Yeah, I really enjoy it. It's a great show. So, yeah. Yeah, we highly suggest a very Chicago-ish Chicago-like the bear on FX and Hulu. Very good. You know, the difference is sometimes being in the city, if you live in the city or you travel to, you know, if you live in the suburbs and you spend time downtown, things look a certain way. Yes. You can tell when Hollywood uses the name of something and then it's not actually filmed in Chicago. This show is filmed in the city. Yes. You can notice the places, you see the restaurants, you see people who are like that gentleman. And it just walked by our window with a chair and a smoke. And what else was he carrying? Yeah, a coffee. A coffee? A chair and a smoke. Yes. Just walking down the street. Yes, he's going to sit down in front of our studios here and watch a show as if he's on Donahue. Of course. So that's what he's going to do right now. Or a live studio audience. That's what he's going to do. And by the way, Shay, just for a point of fact, we talked about shows that are not quite Chicago, you just saw a movie just recently that has nothing to do with Chicago. Well, it's based in Chicago, the bike riders, but it was filmed in Cincinnati. And when Chris said you can see the Chicago shows that aren't quite Chicago. Yeah, that's how I felt the entire time watching the movie. And I probably have an unfair opinion of the movie because I spent the whole thing watching it going, where is there this hill in Chicago? No, it's totally true that I've yet to see the movie. And in fact, listening to this show has led me to not want to go see bike riders in the theater because I listened to Shay's report on the movie and him telling us that it looks nothing like Chicago, even though it's set in Chicago. I want nothing to do with the movie. Yeah, he has a keen eye for the movies. And I'm very sensitive to movies or TV shows that are based in Chicago. If it sounds like they are from Northern Wisconsin or from North Dakota, that's not a Chicagoan. That's not. I know that what some people from the outside of this city in the state or the Midwest think that's what we sound like. But we are not from the Uppers. No. We're not from the Uppers and we're not from the Dakotas. That's not what we sound like. And then from a cinematography standpoint, the way that Shay laid it at, I'm like, okay, I'm not going to do because I'll get really disappointed in that. If it doesn't feel like the city. I've been to Cincinnati. It looks nothing like Chicago. We've been to Cincinnati. Nothing. You and I have been to Cincinnati. We have. It looks nothing like Chicago. We went deep into the city. Yeah. Where did we go over the Rhine? Is that what they call it? Is it Vernon? We would mount something. Yeah. Mount Adams. Mount Adams. Yeah. Looks nothing like Chicago. It's nothing. Nothing like Chicago. No. Then Covington. Covington was interesting. Nothing like Chicago. No. No. The strip club looked nothing like Chicago. Oh. Covington. Shane, when we walked in, they said that the cover, there was a cover charge. What was it? Like five bucks or something. It was five bucks. Yeah. But they're like, and they're like, you also have to purchase a drink. And we're like, all right, we'll take a drink. And they handed us a warm. What was it? A high life? Yeah. A warm high life in a can. Yeah. In a can. Warm high life in a can. We looked at each other like, all right, we need to get out of here. The lady that was scary. The lady that was on the runway, by the way, as she started to disrobe. You could tell where the Atlantic Ocean was on her stomach. Damn. So she was also wearing a one piece bathing suit. Yes. You could recall this. Yes. So you could tell. So I'm just telling you. Covington, Kentucky. That was the talent right there. I mean, it was like, you can know what all the fault line was and everything else. Yeah. Yeah. So you do recall this, Chris. Oh, I recall it. It was. We weren't there long. See, but then you know, you're in Covington, Kentucky. You know that you're not in Chicago. You're in Covington, Kentucky. If you can't shoot something in Chicago for whatever reason, use Toronto. They look very similar. I've read it's Toronto. So Hollywood uses Toronto to film in Chicago and air quotes. They also use Pittsburgh. Apparently parts of downtown Pittsburgh look somewhat like the loop. So you can pass for filming in a place that's not Chicago in Pittsburgh and still have it look like the buildings are kind of like what you would see here in the city. You're not doing that in Cincinnati. I'm sorry. You're not doing that. No, that's. And not at all, actually. Well, yeah. You know, we mentioned strip clubs. Yeah. So my wife was at a bachelor at party over the weekend. Oh. So I had a nice weekend. You know, me and the dog were just hanging out. What a great weekend. Just sit at home and rot. Well, golf, but then the rain came through, but it was a nice weekend. She tells me at the bachelor at party that they had a bartender show up at the house for an afternoon and an evening to get a bartender, right? They were not allowed to have a male bartender. Not allowed to have a male bartender. Ten women. Yeah. For a bachelor at party. They weren't allowed to have a male bartender. And this eat it came down from. I don't know where it came from. I just know that that was the assessment of the situation. Well, someone had to be able to, you know, put their hand down and say, like, they're fist down, like, no, you're not going to have a male bartender. Someone had to say that amongst the ten women. Listen, we're all not going to speak for the ages of the ladies, but I'm almost 40. I'm 39. Yeah. They're in the thirties range. Sure. We're all adults. What do you, what's the issue here? Like, do other guys look at their fiancees and say, yeah, bartender? No. It's got to be a lady. No. I've never heard of that. And I, like, like, who cares? What do you, what's going to happen? God, that me. Like, I mean, that could happen. Yes. At any time. He's not starting the drinks with the apparatus. Right? What apparatus? Oh, the, the tool. Oh, I see. That sounds tough. Well, you're, here's what I would say. What, what's happening here? Well, I think the question is, is that a deal breaker, if you're audio, and you realize that there's no male that's stirring the drinks, you're part of the expression. Exactly. Is that a deal breaker? Well, I mean, I think it should be. I mean, because it sounds like someone forced the issue to say, hey, you can have your party, but it can't be a guy that's stirring the drinks. That guy's too busy. Well, I mean, he doesn't have time to show what he can do. He's not going to strip down. Right? He's working. He's working. Yes, I mean, he's working for tips, Jonathan. Yeah. That's what he's doing. He's working for a tip. As a bartender. As a bartender. That's what he's, it's what he's working for. I mean, listen, it's, I would imagine many guys who are listening to this show, have wives, girlfriends, fiancees, who go to Bachelorette parties, and they, they have male entertainment. Right? Guys, you've probably been to a bachelor party where you've seen female entertainment for your buddy. Right? Yes. That's happened. What's, what's a big, like a bartender is not that, like it, from what I was led to believe it wasn't like it, it wasn't like he was going to show up at the door and be like, bartender here, who ordered some drinks and then, you know, rip off the, like it was actually someone to work as a bartender. I see. You know what I'm saying? Like they were, they were hired to be a bartender, not to show up in a little police outfit and have a little hot cop moment. Yes. A guy with a hard hat and the, the vest with nothing else underneath saying, I heard that you need some drilling of your walls. Exactly. Exactly. You need, you need your pipes drained. Yeah. Something, something along those lines. Something you need. Yes. Yes. Something along those lines. Yeah. I said, yeah. Yeah. Yes. I've got, I've got the gun loaded. If you can catch me some call. I brought my drain snake. If you need any plumbing help. Exactly. Exactly. It wasn't that. He was just a bartender. He was just a bartender. Right. They were hiring, they were hiring a bartender where they were at kind of secluded away from like a downtown area. They needed someone for the day to make drinks. I think we just laid out, I think all of the sea level porn storyline. Yes. And the only one we didn't get to was the pizza boy delivers a pizza with extra sausage. Yes. Yes. Hm. Hello. That song sounds so familiar. Um, this weekend. Uh, so. That's not sausage, uh, patty. So that's the whole point of it. Yes. It's that he was not going to be that he was just a guy that was working and being a bartender. Right. Why is someone so uncomfortable? There's like, oh, it's going to be a male bartender with 10 women. Why is that? Come on, man. Sometimes you gotta be ma'am. How do you like your meat? Oh, my God, you know, get a grill pickle in the Bloody Mary or no, you want some salt on the rim? I'm just saying and twitchers, no, what's your deal, Twitch? Here, here's the thing. They're, they're doing the, uh, black, your, your wife didn't want to tell you. So she's telling you something out, listen, I don't care. I do not, I, I'm actually a little disappointed that they didn't get some playful flirting with the, uh, male bartender. Never be afraid to. Right. Like what? You get out of there, bro. Like Paula Deane. Shoot. You'd enjoy that. Right. So I completely understand. See what I'm saying? Yes. It is, it to me, if you trust your wife, your significant other, this won't be a problem. Yeah. Right. But, and even if something else happens, you don't want to know about it. Well, it's, it's also, it's a bachelor party. Yes. Have a little fun. You kind of know from your imagination what could happen. What, what could happen? Sure. Not what is going to happen. What, what could happen. Right. So just. Have you ever heard of that before? No. Like have a, have a great time. Uh, by the way, can't be a guy at the bar. Cool. So immediately that is a deal breaker. Immediately. Like, and it would be for me, because the follow up is why. Exactly. What do you think I'm going to do? Right. What do you think I'm going to do? I'm going to be comparing you. And by the way, it's a bachelor party. Anything could happen. Sure. Like for instance, am I asking you what's happening at your bachelor party? I can imagine what could be happening. But I'm not asking. No. Enjoy yourself. Have a bachelor party, but just, it's going to be all dudes. All hard legs. How, how would that work? Exactly. Could you imagine if a woman put the edict down just like on your bachelor party? Yeah. Chris. You know what? All dudes. 100%. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. Is it one of the hallmarks of the bachelor slash bachelor party that you and your group of people go out to a bar or a club or whatever, and it's none of the none of your partners are with you. So you get to engage in some of that harmless flirting. Isn't that the joy that that's the goal of the entire excursion? Exactly. Yes. 100%. You have to be so wildly insecure in your own relationship to put the kabosh on a male bartender. Well, and that's why to me, it's a deal breaker at the beginning at the front end of this because it's like, well, we already immediately have trust issues, immediately we have trust issues. And by the way, if that's happening with me, I'm locking the phones up like I'm going to a Chris Rock concert. I'm just telling you, phones locked up. It don't be in the green purse at the end of the night. It's a Chappelle show. That's it. Thank you. My phone. Okay. Thank you. On the way out. Absolutely. Similar parties where the PSA was put out like, let's keep the phones in the pockets, guys. Yeah. You know, because sometimes there's people in your group who post too much. Yes. No, I guess in this group right now, I'm the guest. I would imagine the person who's usually sits in this seat would be the person who posts too much. No question. From an event, right? Right. No question. It's always on social media. No question. He's always posting, right? Yeah. If it's one of those situations, I'm not sure if I'm inviting him. Oh, Cap. Cap can be invited. Nope. Not sure. Because I don't know if he has the secret backup phone in the sock. Seriously. He's got multiple phones. And even if the phones are locked up, telegram, telephone, telecatman, did you see the orifices that? No. That's the thing too, right? Yeah. You can hold it. He's posting a recap. Even if you don't allow him, like you could disallow the recap and all of it, say none of this goes on social media. He will be in this office Monday morning. You should have seen what hoodie was getting up to. See? Shay was standing on his head. You should have seen each lady had a leg. Three ladies. So there you have it there. Like what? No. That's the reason why. That's the reason why. Shay, he got sloppy on the dance floor. He was making out with some girl. Not good, man. Not good. It would be a sidebar brought to my aching law for the great Howard Aiken. So Shay is getting married, right? And there is this blonde. What? That's private. You snorling. You are such a scumbag. Not good, man. Right. Not good. You know what, Shay really put the cherry on the Sunday there because then at a bachelor party, right, where you're supposed to just be open and fun and have a good time, he would judge. He would judge. What a scumbag. Take that. Well, then that'll be all, right? So that's why, Chrissy, when you ask the question, oh, he'd be invited. No shot as we say on the program. A disaster in Miami, we talk about it coming up next on Captain Jhood. This is Cap and Jhood. They beat in the traffic commute, so you don't have to. No. Say it. Say it to me. Oh. On ESPN Chicago. It's the Cap and Jhood Morning Show on ESPN 1000, and we are streaming on the ESPN Chicago app. She's hoping that you're going to have a great Monday and a great week. Chris Black is in for Cap 312-332 ESPN is our telephone number. So we're not talking about soccer, but we're going to talk about soccer only in this regard. Copa America final start delayed after fans rush the gates at the place where the Miami Dolphins play in Miami Gardens, Florida. The start time for the 2024 Copa America between Argentina and Columbia was delayed over 75 minutes on Sunday, following a security breach in which fans broke through one of the main entry gates. You're supposed to start at seven o'clock. It actually started at 822 and there was 120 minutes of extra and regular time. Here's the thing. So I turned on the coverage and I just saw that the announcer was just kind of talking like, oh, where's the game going to start? Could you imagine an estimated 7,000 people breaking through the gates and gained entry into the stadium without tickets, Chris, prior to kickoff and the numbers game was not in favor of the cops. 7,000 people without tickets, 550 police officers at the stadium detail. I think the fans win in that spot. Yeah. You tune in to see Rob Stone and Alexi Lawless stalling and awkwardly not really talking about soccer while talking about soccer because they had the extended pregame show. It's a terrible look for this country and hosting big soccer events. In two years in 2026, this country in North America will be hosting the World Cup and that stadium specifically, Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, will be hosting seven games within that tournament. And what was happening was that fans were just showing up to the stadium without tickets in hopes to rush the gates. And when you saw over an hour before the match that each gate, there was just herds of people packed in and it looked some of the video online. You've looked like complete chaos where, you know, if you see looting in a store where there's just pushing and shoving and people just trying to break through places, that's what it looked like. It looked like, you know, you had people screaming, pushing, punching, all kinds of stuff just trying to break through the perimeter gates to get into the stadium. Then there are also videos online of people trying to break into actual infrastructure within the stadium, like air ducts and other means to get into the stadium. It was a crazy scene and it's a bad look for American soccer, even though USA soccer isn't the group that put this event on. It's a bad look for our country that we can't host a world class soccer event without some kind of issue earlier in the Copa America tournament. I don't know if you saw it and you said that we're not going to talk soccer. That's not really what we're talking about. We're talking about a big sporting event that took place in this country last night, but last week, did you see there was a game in this tournament where players had to rush into the stands and they were fighting with fans because two groups of fans were fighting with each other and families were involved. The players jumped into the crowd and started fighting with people. That's the same tournament. It doesn't look great. It was an okay game. The late second half wasn't very interesting in the extra time. Kind of bogged down with players that seemed like they were just way too tired to be out there in the heat in Miami, but you have Argentina that wins, Copa, and it was a bad look. I saw some video like you did of people going into areas that are supposed to, like the 72 dolphins club, is that whatever the team that was undefeated, whatever year that was, that club, that was destroyed. It was destroyed. The whole thing was destroyed. They went in there and they had the best cognac and whatever the best wine that it was in there and they destroyed it. When you're going through air ducts to be able to see a sporting event, that's when it's over the top. I just want to be able to just put into your mind, imagine the Bears are playing the biggest game ever in Soldier Field and people just show up. Now, again, if you're the ticket taker, you say, okay, they're lining up before we open the gates. All right. So you would imagine those people lining up before they get into the gates. They have tickets. No, they all bum rush at the same time. Imagine that Soldier Field. Just imagine like, hey, we're going to push through five or six thousand people and we're going to push through. That's what we're going to do. I mean, that's scary. Also, you have to be pissed off if you are a someone who actually paid for tickets because I'm sure those tickets are those tickets are not cheap. I would imagine so and you paid for it. But then these people getting in for free Jenny Taft was reporting that people were getting to their seats and there were people already in their seats like people who had tickets were getting to their seats and there were people sitting there because so many people pushed through and got through that they were just in the stadium. That would be annoying. And I'll say this. I'll raise my hand. I've gone to many Chicago Bears football games and a part of why we've had this conversation in this city about a new stadium and where it should be located and and what amenities should be added to a new Chicago Bears football stadium. I've gone to games on both end zones, the north and the south, where it is very difficult to get into the stadium 30, 40 minutes before kick. And you are packed in there with thousands of people, especially on the north end. There's a very narrow kind of area where everyone funnels into to get into the stadium on the south. There's more room. But everyone who comes who like walks underneath that bridge all pile up those stairs and it's difficult to get into the stadium, especially a Packers game, a playoff game. You know, you really have to plan to get in on time. And if you're someone that's out tailgating and you've got 20 minutes until kick, you're not making kick. There's no way. And that's a part of why the need for a new football stadium along with a bunch of other added amenities would help. But like that that's a that's an annoyance in going to social field. So you say, could you imagine? I could absolutely imagine because I can imagine, you know, 7,000 people showing up and then trying to push through, but people with tickets, it's difficult to get through. So I can see it. Is there a sporting event that you would do this where you'd say, I'm going to be part of the flash mob and get my way into a stadium? Because that's exactly what these people did. To be able to see this particular event, they they push through 7,000 people pretty much at the same time. They push their way through. They went through air ducts, air vents to be able to get them. Would you ever do that? Is there a sporting event is like, you know what, I got to get in? No, I also, you know, I think a part of that is the television product is so good. Yes. That I can justify not being at a live sporting event because I can see it all at home. Yes. So like, I don't I don't have the fear of missing out. I don't have FOMO for those situations to you. I do not and the reason why is because I've seen my share of sporting events live. And the other thing is, is that I wouldn't fit into an air duct. That's fair. That'd be a hard time for me to be able to get in there. I could just slip. Yeah. You could. I could not. That would be a hard time. I would I would be like a slip inside for me. I would be the log jam in there. There'd be guys that were going to say, all right, are you going to get through there or not? No, not going to happen. I'll go first. Yeah. Yes. I don't want to go second. You and I are breaking out. I'll go first. There's no way I'm going through it and I can throw a rope down the line and I can pull from from my end. Get a tow truck. You're going to need it if you get what in the stadium Chris, Argentina, Columbia. I understand that the great game of football of soccer means a lot more actually a lot of countries than a Disney United States as a whole. There's no question about that. I know it means a lot. Maybe the people from Argentina and Columbia, they flew in. Maybe there's some in the Miami in that area. Yes. I'm going to go watch the game. But the point is though is that that's an extreme. There's not one sporting event where I'd say, come on, let's go. Now listen, when I was younger, sure you could find a backdoor, some place at Old Kamiskey. You can be able, if you wanted to, you can find a place where they're doing the loading dock at the old Chicago State. Maybe you could do that, but there's no way that as an adult now that I'm breaking through to try to get into an event for free. I'll say this, when I was younger, I would purchase standing room only tickets to the United Center. Yeah. A lot. And I would go and I would find a spot and you kind of walk around and sometimes you'd see an empty seat and you'd try and take it for a while and you sit down until someone shows up. Yeah. You'll see that seat weasel. But I would go standing room only. Yeah. Yeah. I used to do that. Yeah. No shame to do that. A cheaper ticket. Yeah. It was like 10 bucks. It was cool. But then, you know, eventually you're standing behind the final row in the entire stadium. And it's like, I'd rather be at home. Yeah. And because the experience is great, not saying that you shouldn't go to games, but I would also say this, don't try to get in there for free with 7,000 of your favorite friends. Yeah. Okay. Let's go. Let's go. And they pushed through. That's got to suck though. You paid for tickets. They're sitting in your seats, sir. And so it's not like security or the Usher is going to say, you have to get up. I'm sure that that would be the disaster for them too. Exactly. So Usher could stand on fan trying to settle this situation, which that doesn't turn out well. Should I listen to this show? You're a whack job. Would you do this? Wait a minute. No, definitely not. Listen. I prefer I listen. Therefore, I know he's a whack job. I am a whack job, but no, I'm not sneaking into it. I don't even like sneaking down into better seats because I can't enjoy the event doing it. I'm just looking over my shoulder the entire time. Like I'm not supposed to be here. Please, nobody come kick me out. Every time someone walks down the aisle, you think they're coming for your seat all the time. Yeah. It's like nerve whacking. Yeah. I don't want to enjoy an event like that. Every time in my older age, I sometimes mistaken the aisle and the seat number, but I think I got it. Sure. Got it right. Yeah. A happy with Janet Jackson. That concert on Juneteenth. Like, this is where we're sitting, 100, 102, all right, here we go, 102 seat, one and two. Here we go. No, it's 103. Maybe I'm an idiot, but on the wrong side, I always get confused on which side it's starting on. That's it. It's the wrong side. Wait, what side does it start on? Right. Right seat. Wrong side. Right. Exactly. Right. Damn. Am I in the right aisle? All right. So I don't want to be that guy, but sometimes, but there's not a sporting event that I would want to just bum rush to go into. That's just crazy to me, but that's what happened. Think about that. Argentina, Colombia, you've already paid for ticket and someone's like, nope, I'm already here. Where's your ticket? Here's my ticket. You want to see my tickets right here? Here's my ticket right here. What are you going to do about it? We've got to talk about the bears because Chris Black has five questions ahead for bears training camp. Don't forget, shot a no shot at eight o'clock, all part of the mix on the cap and J.

How are we on a Monday training camp Monday? All good kid. We're great. We're great after the storms last night. We're great. Think we're all good. Trees down all over Jackson Park and on the in South Shore had to dodge. It's like I was following this one in a video game trying to go around that stuff. It was bad. I didn't know how bad it was. I woke up this morning. Did you see the photo on social media of three lightning bolts simultaneously hitting the Sears Tower, Trump Tower and the Hancock Tower at the same time this morning? There's no way it's real, but apparently it was a real photo that was captured. Well you know it's real. It's a real storm when on the news they're breaking into sporting events and then they're also saying we know that you think that tornadoes can't touch down in the downtown area, but if you're in a skyscraper, you might want to start heading to lower floors. Ooh, that was a rough storm last night. I will open up the back door and say this because Peacock works at NBC. The amount of listener complaints about people breaking into programming for weather is amazing. She shows me some of the letters. Yeah. I know she's going to kill me when I get home, but I have to bring this up because it's still a public service. I know we have the information on our phones. I know that we have social media all that, but it's up to the meteorologists to be able to say hey man, listen, I know that you're watching your big brother or you're watching your favorite sporting event or whatever, but we just want you to be aware that you probably should get to the basement or the attic or someplace safe. I know it's annoying for some and you prefer by maybe the side by side, especially during college football season, but it's a public service. People need to know. The issue last night during the Copa America final was that they went soccer small box, whether big box. Do you get a Mark Strel? No, it was who I don't know. Big Mark Strel? I'm just saying like, can I have the sports in the big box? I understand. The alert is fine. I have no problem with the alert on the screen and you telling me that there's a twist coming at my house. There's no problem with that, but can I get the large box for the soccer, please? The alert also a problem during a DVR programs. Yeah. You want the dialogue or beep, beep, damn it, I missed it. But they're doing a public service though, right? They're supposed to be doing that, which I'm totally okay with. I don't mind it. I just can I get the big box? Large box, please. For my football, there's a large box that's going to you and I can agree with. Okay. All right. Good. Here's Shane. Camp tomorrow for the Bears, Caleb Williams and Roma Dunes, they are still unsigned. They have not signed the dotted line on their contracts. We've talked about this being kind of a non-story hoodie. You believe it's a hard knocks ploy, but now like you're really up against the clock. The first practice is for rookies starting tomorrow and no contract signatures from either of the Bears first round picks shot or no shot. There is reason for concern now that to no shot. This is a television event. This will be taking this will be a story on our show this week. I'm talking about in a positive way that they've signed and then after that, that'll be all. I believe this is something where it was going to be on one of the cameras that it's going to there will sign they'll be taken care of only reason why is because can of Williams or Roma Dunes a they can't circumvent the system. They can't get around it, Chris. It's just what it is. I mean, there's no extra perks. The rookie contract is what the rookie contract is there ain't they ain't going anywhere. It's been reported that Caleb wants to break them old for quarterbacks and quarterback contracts. That's out there and each minute that passes as we head towards tomorrow morning, I'm starting to get more concerned. I thought this would happen over the weekend and we would be good and I know you keep pointing to the hard knocks situation. Will they sign in front of the cameras to make it a big deal? I just want them there and signed and you said this week does that mean before 10 o'clock? Will we get this done today tomorrow? Is it going to happen in the morning like will this happen before 8 30 today and Jesse gets bumped like how are we hitting you know I mean like this has got to happen pretty soon or it's going to be a major story. I'm not concerned. If Caleb's not there tomorrow, yeah, I'm not concerned. I'm just not I just think each minute that passes, I'm starting to get concerned. No, I think it's fine, Chris. I think it's fine. First of all, they're going to be on the field. I don't think there's going to be this major controversy with their signing signing late or signing on. I think it's going to be just fine. The other thing is too is that if this happens then for sure Caleb will be trying to get a piece of the Chicago Bears. I'll be the next thing trying to be able to be part owner of the Chicago Bears. Well, you mentioned the rookie contract is essentially when you're a first-round pig. It's all kind of in the CBA. It's all set for you. There's not a lot you can really change. Second deal though, if Caleb shows up in balls out for two-plus seasons, the Bears better be ready to pay someone as the highest paid quarterback in the NFL and for him to want to break the mold because that's what's going to happen with the second contract. Yeah, that's the going rate. That's what's going to happen with the second deal. If there's any hang up here for this first one, you know that second one's it's going to be a much bigger deal from Caleb's point of view. Shane, despite the satellite lawsuit that's going on with the NFL, the number will continue to raise. He'll find his way back up there again. It might level off after this deal because it's as they're appealing right now. Aren't they, Shane, with the NFL and I think there's an appeal process. Okay, even if it levels off, it'll get back up there again where you're going to pay quarterbacks in excess of 60, 70 million. That's what it is. It's the going rate. It's ridiculous as it sounds to long time sports fans. That's what, that's how valuable the position is. The quarterback position is in the NFL that you'd pay that much because it matters. Here's Shane Darlink. Yay. Jaylin Johnson, it continued his media tour, talked with Rich Ison. What is that Jay war? Is there a celebration behind you? Yeah. Good time. All right. Good. June Johnson on with Rich Ison was asked and talked about Justin Field's time in Chicago. Listen to this. It was unfortunate. I think kind of him departing, I wasn't surprised, but I definitely thought he was definitely unfortunate. But again, it's the business of it. Sometimes you get kind of pushed out just through the time you just do when you come into a situation. So I feel like overall, he gave his heart to the team and gave his heart to Chicago. He, I mean, it was never anything short than his full effort. So I think for me, he's definitely loved and respect Justin as a, as a human, as a quarterback. But I think he was just in an unfortunate situation coming in when he came in. Basically said Justin Fields never got a fair shake in Chicago. I've openly disagreed, shot or no shot. Justin Fields never got a fair shot in Chicago. No shot. Next. Don't care to expound on that. No, you get three years to start in the NFL. You got to win at some point. He had what 35 starts in a Bears uniform. I mean, I don't want to recap our shows from December, January heading into February before we knew the Bears were absolutely moving on, but he had the time. He could have proven that he was above average quarterback. He didn't do it. He was given the opportunity. That's a fair shake. It is a fair shake. Anytime that you get a certain amount of starts in the National Football League, when you are the guy, when you have to look over your shoulder and you fall short, it's just not true. If you want to throw out the first year and say, well, this is a rebuilding year, fine. But the point is though, is that a fair shake, what is a fair shake? Is a fair shake sticking with a quarterback for a decade and never getting to where you need to be? I mean, this is not the 80s, man. You have to in this league, you move on quickly. I don't care what position it is. If you feel like you can be able to upgrade the position or you feel that position is underachieving and you want to replace it with someone else, that's how it works. You don't have five to ten years to wait anymore. That's how I grew up, Chris, of someone that you know sucked, that you know that wasn't right for the position, but they stuck with them anyway because that's the contract and we're going to develop them. That people, you have to understand that teams move on today. It's quicker than it's ever have been before with sports and athletes. If you underachieve, you're out. Of course. You don't have time for the grass to grow. Caleb Williams underachieves, he'll be out too. That's the way sports work. This isn't intramurals, you know, like a fair shake. He was a quarterback for three years. Hey, they go up to Green Bay in the final week of the season and they can't score over ten points. Didn't they score nine? I mean, what are we talking about? I get it like he's a player, he's a part of the team, it's not going to trash Justin Fields on the way out, they all liked him. So yeah, you know, he's one of their guys, but that's a fair shake. I'm sorry. If you get one season or like a half season and you're injured and then they move on, that's like, all right, you didn't really get to see it. Justin Fields played, he played a lot. That's a fair shake. It is a fair shake. I don't, I don't, first of all, it was a choice. His choice is someone who's a Pittsburgh Steelers or your own team. He chose the goddess with the Steelers. That's what Jalen Johnson did. He did. He, instead of saying, well, we moved on, I hope the best for Justin, nah, the Bears didn't give him a fair shake. Okay. So now you have a problem with the Bears management in that regard, but that's what it sounds like. I don't think he has a problem with the management. I think he's just resigned to what it was when he came in that the coach was kind of dead man walking and the situation was never great around field, so he didn't get the chance to shine. That's a shot of management. Maybe when I think. Maybe is a, is a, is a direct shot saying that, well, they didn't give him a fair shake. So now you have a problem with them for not giving your friend a fair shake. I think he's okay. My read on it is he's okay with who's managing it now. He just thinks the timing was wrong for Justin and what happened to him wasn't necessarily his fault. Like that type of thing really bothers me because from fans, it seems like some expect every team to always have a perfect situation for a player to work out. You know, you got to line up the GM and the coach and the player. They all have to be on the same timeline. Otherwise that player's never going to win and that player is only good if he's on the same timeline as a coach. I'm sorry. He had every opportunity to be a good quarterback. He's not a good quarterback. Therefore the team is moving on. It's pretty simple. If Jalen Johnson wasn't good in coverage, then the Bears would move on. Yes. He's not fair. Shake. He's been here for a moment. Fortunately for us, he's one of the best corners in football. So we got a new deal. That's the way it works. He's going to ball out in Pittsburgh. Shay. All right. The MLB draft began yesterday. The White Sox made their first pick at five where they selected Arkansas pitcher Hagan Smith. Yeah. Dude is awesome. Yeah. Whoever pitcher left the big like this is a really good player. However, the expectation going in was that the White Sox would focus on getting a bat. They are bereft of bats in their farm system outside of the top level guys like Colson Montgomery. And a lot of people had the thought, well, what's really the impact of a college bat? You don't have to look very far. The rookie of the year favorite right now in Texas, Wyatt Langford, college bat, first round pick gets selected. He's having a season where he's making history seemingly on a weekly basis shot or no shot. The White Sox screwed up by taking a pitcher. That's a no shot. That's a no shot. If crochet is going to be dealt here at the deadline, which is very likely to happen, Hagan Smith. And this is all different, Chris, as you all know, in the college draft, who knows because it's not like the NBA or the NFL draft where you immediately see the player that you draft. I'm just telling you that when you're the White Sox, beggars can't be choosers. They need everything. They need everything. When you're a 71 loss ball club on your way to over 110 losses and you have a farm system that's, you know, just decent, you need to be able to have as many impactful young players that will be in your system for a while. Hagan Smith, who I saw actually pitch at Arkansas is a hell of a arm, a hell of a hand. And he is going to help this White Sox team if he stays healthy. He's that good. He's one of those guys, Chris, that you're just flipping through the channels. You stumble along ESPNU or the SEC network. And all of a sudden you're like, who was that? And it's a guy that was that good. And again, baseball's been from other sports, but Hagan Smith to me is the real deal. I saw him. He's fantastic. I'm going to say no shot, but I will add this. If you are at the bottom and you need everything, what's the quickest way to becoming relevant again? Well, I'm not going to say no players, we're starting pitching. I feel as if it's a more risky proposition, continuously taking starting pitching, especially when it seems as if they're going to trade crochet, which I'm against. I don't think they should. If you finally stumble upon someone who seems like a star, don't you want stars on your team for the long, he's young. Like I don't, I get like, I understand that the pushback will be like, well, you can get more prospects. Well, you have a proven commodity here. Why are you moving off of someone who is one of the best pitchers in the, the first half of baseball this season? I don't get that. Well, I've been saying, Chris, is that you have to start someplace like if even the bears, you have to be able to say, here's one of our cornerstones. We're going to build starting. Exactly. Exactly. And if crochet is traded, I don't know who that is. Exactly. Hasn't crochet proven that he's worthy of being a corner zone? I would say so. So what, what is a quicker way to rebuild an organization with arms or with positional players? Because the future doesn't seem very bright for positional stars. Like are there position, positional stars in the, the system coming up, Colson Montgomery? If he's a star, he's kind of struggled in minor league baseball. We'll see. That's what I'm saying. Like, I mean, but the risk is, is that the person that you choose for an offensive player could be Andrew Vaughn, who at this point is a bust. Yeah, he is. You're right. Well, it could go both ways, right? Bus potential is high for, for young players. I get that. Um, but it seems like an interesting because what we saw back in 2016, when the Cubs won the World Series, the way they built, they had a bunch of positional young stars and they paid for pitching or they traded for pitching. So like, which way is the best way to kind of, uh, put together your roster moving forward? I'm going to say no shot, but well, say they need it all. I mean, when you have negative war, uh, players like Ben and Tendi and Maldonado and Vaughn in your lineup on a daily basis, you're not going anywhere. My issue is that is, I think if you want a quick rebuild, the way to do it is spend through the nose and on major league resources. And we know they aren't going to do that. Right. So when it comes to selecting a pitcher, okay, but now I think I would trade crochet because at some point you have to get bats in your minor league system by hook or by crook. If you keep crochet, that's great. But by the time you're good, you're like keeping him, you're only lengthening how long it's going to take you to get good again. By the time you're good, you're going to have to pay him. They've shown no appetite to do that. So at that point, I'm like, yeah, maybe you should trade him and just go full, full youth mode. What I'm hearing from both of you is that the problem here, uh, is the Chicago White Sox. And all starts with money. Yeah. Every bit of it. The whole conversation who just had is about money and you're the lack of spinning it. Yeah. Where, where Ben and Tendi is walking around with money falling out of his pockets and a negative war and a negative on the ball club. It's embarrassing. It's a 71 lost ball club at the All-Star break. It's the worst we've ever seen. I said at the start, we've ever seen on the start of this year on Carmen and Yurko. I said that I projected 42 wins and they laughed at you. I think I'm still, well, no, I mean, we were kind of joking around with it, but I've stuck to the 42. I think I'm still on pace for it. I told cap. I thought this was the worst roster I've ever seen in my life. He laughed me out of the room. Preseason, chin. Good job. Good job with White Sox weekly on Saturday. Hey, thanks. At least for listening. Yeah. The drive back from golf. Yeah. There's a good job. You weren't the only one tuning in. I didn't say I was the only one. I just said you're not the only one to tune in. Oh, tune in. See? Rick was there. Tune in and Chris gets to the end step on my joke around the NFL is coming. You'll follow. Hey, Jesse Rogers, the latest on MLB at 835 cap and jhood with Chris Black in for cap on Chicago's home for sports cap and jhood. I'm back. Yes. What I thought I was out. They pulled me back in on Chicago's home for sports, ESPN, Chicago, Nick. Both sucks. He sucks. I'm just a fan. I'm not a football about it. I love the Green Bay Packers. The guy is drunk, but there we go. This is not Detroit, man. This is the Super Bowl. I won't win him. He starts to come any more. This is a really thickly built guy. I mean, what's absolutely looking for all of these things here. It's time to go around the NFL right here on cap and jhood on ESPN 1000 and streaming on the ESPN Chicago app. Chris Black is in for cap. Shane, we were just talking about one that first weekend happens for college football. The adjustment for us to find out what conferences on what network. That's got to be fun. Well, the good news is you want us to look for the Pac-12 network anymore starting August 1st. Thank God. Oh, so it's off my cable. Yeah. That's it. Good bye. Poor Chris. Good Britain. Some fact big win for me. I get the big 10 networks. So I'm good. Yeah, that's good. We're all good. Well, a lot of that's good. Yeah. I mean, have you seen these conferences? Have you even gone to the ESPN.com feed? They haven't reorganized it yet. Have that? Yeah, they have. Oh, last week when you went to the different conferences for college football, they were still set. They were last year. It's looks like a CBS receipt. You have to see this. It's amazing. Yeah. Well, we go around the NFL with Shane Orling. Shane. All right. Well, this is actually going to be a college edition of around the NFL because if you were than seven hours, the 11 year wait is over. I will have my hands on a college football video game. Oh, I thought you were going to say something with your wife. OK. I've only been with my wife for eight years. But this is his love. It's bad. This is what he's doing. So you're going to get your hands on something. I haven't hit it in four months. See, there you go. We'll make it 11 years today, apparently. We all haven't hit it in 11, 11 years. This game, are you kidding me? That's what I'm saying. It's been 11 years. People are excited. I have friends who are buying consoles just to be able to play this game. People are getting back into video games. So I have some advice for the people. When you get your hands on this and you start up your dynasty mode, I have my top five schools that you can use in dynasty mode. Starting with number five, my personal selection, Appalachian state. You get a fun belt team that's had some minor success. You can bring them to the mountaintop. I have one requirement if you use App State. Every single season, you must schedule your opening game in Ann Arbor. That's fun. I like that. Because he wants that upset so bad, he wants your team to be ready to go and you win at the big house. That's fun. You recreate history every single season. All of a sudden, Sharron Moore, launch him to the sun. You're firing Sharron Moore. You take over App State and you schedule that opener in Ann Arbor, Sharron Moore is getting launched. That's so funny. All right. Next one. Number four is Kennesaw State. Yes. First year, FBS, they've made the leap. You can create your own version of James Madison a year ago with your first year in FBS. Try to make a bowl. I don't believe they'll have those ridiculous bowl game restrictions on Kennesaw State in the game. This is what dreams are made of, hoodie. Yes. I know this will not surprise you. Chris knows this. Yeah. I have a Kennesaw State shirt. Oh, yeah. Actually, I've seen that. I'll wear that to the office one day. Just in honor of conference USA one, but two, that could be a great team for your, for your game for, for college football. Kennesaw State. I love that. The owls. All right. What's number four? Number three is going to be New Mexico. This is playing the game on maximum difficulty. You are a complete zero in terms of support and in terms of recruiting. You got to start from the very bottom and build a powerhouse. It's the most rewarding way to do it. This is real. Knows to the grindstone type stuff. It's a multi year process, but the ultimate bragging rights. If you can win an national title with New Mexico. All right. Next one. Number two SMU because it's legal to pay players now. We're restoring the pony express to its former glory. So he's got Eric Dickerson in the back in the backfield and now you can pay for players. Yeah. I love to SMU. The best part of that 30 for 30 is that when they were caught with a death penalty, they still had the shady drawer of money. Even though they were caught, they were like, they're still paying players. You know, you're caught, right? Here's another $200 on. Go right ahead. So they kept paying them. So crazy. That story. You ever see that 30 for 30? The pony express. Very good. All right. Next one. Number one is actually going to be two teams. I'm typically against using traditional power conference teams for your dynasty. I think it's too lame. But these two schools present a unique opportunity, Oregon State or Washington State. You can use either one of them and exact vengeance on those Pac-12 losers who told you you aren't good enough. Show them what it's like at the Palouse with Wazoo. Uh oh. Sounds like a Charlie take. Oh, yeah. So I was thinking about Oregon, Oregon State. Mr. Platypus. Yeah. Mr. Portlandia. Yeah. Charlie. Yeah. Oh, by the way, it's Charlie playing by the way, I'm sure. Oh, yeah. What team did he choose? Oregon, Oregon State? Hi. He's, well, you know, he probably will do a dynasty with both teams. I've told him you can't choose Oregon. You choose Oregon. You're a fed. Yeah. That's kind of too easy. They're like the third ranked team in the game. You can't choose a top five team to start your d- it's like Abdullah. He goes, oh, Alabama. I'm like, you can't use Alabama. Are you insane? I was using a Miac. The last time I played this game, I think I won three national championships with Miac team. And Shay gave me the report that it's not, you can't use non power fired or no FCS teams. Right, Shay? No FCS team. FBS only. I think there is a feature that will allow you to make a custom team. So if you want to create Howard, bring some five stars to Howard and win a title, but you got to move them into the FBS. So instead, I'm going with UMass. The team I selected back in the day, I always went with Hawaii. Hawaii? Yes. Yeah. We brought that up last week. I think off the air talking about what if we started a dynasty with Hawaii playing the college football game. Good old Rainbow Warriors. Yeah. You get the time zone advantage? Yeah. The throwbacks are awesome. Yeah. I think that. That was the team I always went to back in the day when I played. Shay, I'm going to let you choose my team as we get ready to talk to Jesse Rogers. These five, I want you to choose the one I'm going to go with this weekend. North Texas, Mean Green, not bad, Utah, which all the minors. As you well know, Chris, a long time favorite of mine, you built, you, I built my, my betting Saturday with Utah, Utah loss all the time. As you recall, always Utah first Utah State, UL Monroe, or UMass, UMass, 100% UMass, no doubt about it. Yeah. You get to join, you get to join the Mac, you take over a perennial loser school in football, but that is a fun story. It's a fun journey to take yourself on easily UMass. Okay. You get some weather too. Right? You need some rain. Northeast. So you get some rain, a little snow, maybe kicked in late in the season. So this is the new college football game. I'm going to start off my whole dynasty team. I'm going to start with UMass. Yup. The minimum. That's great. That's outstanding. That's no problem. Cause that's how you do it. It's easy to slide in Georgia and be like, here we go. Okay. Well, yeah, the recruiting is so easy in that situation in those games, but it takes time to build a North Texas mean green or a UMass course. So that's going to be fun. So my uncool because I'm not going to purchase a system to play this, is that what we're hearing here? Yeah. Okay. Well, for now, but at some point you will be playing it. It'll be, it'll be around rings in the workout plate or going to be some place. You'll be at some party and it'll just be there and it's like, okay, shaking you bring in yours so then I can just play it. Yeah. No, I'm, I think I'm going to bring it in one day and we'll do a little tournament upstairs on the seventh floor. All right. I'm in for that. See? That's fun. It's the only way I'll be able to get cap to play. You know, he's not going to buy a system by the game. So I got to bring it in and then play cap. So you're saying I'm like, cap? Well, yeah. Oh, no. Cap Jr. in that seat. Oh, no. Oh, what are we doing? It's wrong with that. He's all a favor. Well, yeah. Yeah. Sure. I love LA. Yeah. Jesse Rogers will be coming up next to the latest on the Cubs and Sox and everything else, all-star game right here on the Cap and Jay Hood Morning Show.
