8/22 8 AM: Dealbreakers
[Music] Good morning, and welcome in to the Captain Jay Hood Morning Show on ESPN 1000. And we're streaming on the ESPN Chicago app with David Kaplan, Jonathan Hood with you. Don't forget, deal breakers comes your way at 8.35, Tom Thayer. And an hour from now as we talk Bears and Chiefs. Our coverage starts at 2.30 right here on the home of the Bears, ESPN 1000, game time at 7.20. Here's Shane Norley. Good morning, boys. On the day of the final Bears preseason game, after today, it's all real. Very exciting how we feel. Let's go. I'm so fired up. Let's go. It's great. It's great because even though, Cap, I know how you and I both feel about the summer. And you know that right now woke up this morning, turned on the car 55 degrees. We know falls coming. We know the old Hawks coming. Yes. We know that the breeze is coming, Cap, but you know what? Football is here. It was inevitable, but we're here. We're ready, man. I'm excited. It's and having Caleb. Like it's just it just feels to like we were always like God, I hope Mitch figures it out. I cutler so pedestrian, you know, have a good game in a bag. Justin. Great athlete. All right. He played well today. He was terrible this game. Like Sylvie's article in Shaw Media that he writes every week this week, right? You know, Sylvie and I don't agree on everything. That's right. But his article is how he could go three or four plays or three or four dry. And then all of a sudden he does something and you're like, whoa, did you see that? Like there's something in there with Caleb that we have not had in our lifetime period. That's true. All that is our facts. He just laid out, Cap. Every bit of it. It is true. And we didn't feel it with Justin Fields. We didn't feel like there was going to be there's going to be some dynamic plays. But with Caleb Williams, I think it also stems from his great college play as well. No question about it. So I think all of it is just going to be exciting to watch because it's new and fresh. You know, I didn't say you see something new. You're interested in finding out what does it look like. And same thing when it comes to Caleb Williams, you're just interested in finding out how does it look on a 18 week basis in the NFL. Yeah, but it does. It does feel a little more legitimate than the stuff in the past. And I think a part of that is being the number one pick in the draft and the generational tag that was on him and all the hype since high school. It does like Mitch. What did he start? Thirteen games at North Carolina. You know, Fields fell in the draft. This feels much more concrete. Yeah, it is. And it's our guy. Let's go. Man, we only had Bryce Young instead. Who's Shane Newell. Shane? Well, boy, that tree just looks better and better. Yesterday Chris Simms tweeted out a glowing endorsement of Rome O'Dunze saying he's smooth with a lot of O's. More explosive than anybody really expected Rome to be and could actually elevate himself to being the number two receiver in the Bears depth chart behind DJ Moore. Obviously, that would move him ahead of Keenan Allen. Look, my instant reaction of Keenan Allen's, you're three, this room is a lot better than we thought it might be with like Rome's not going to have that Jackson Smith in mind. But kind of average slower rookie year, he might hit the ground running and be an instant top receiver shot or no shot. The Bears could have the best wide receiver room in the NFL. That's a shot. A hundred percent shot. DJ Moore is a star. Keenan Allen? Keenan Allen's what, hoodie, a six-time pro baller? And Rome O'Dunze whether he's better than them, both combined, whether he's third, that is the best wide receiver room in the national football league currently because Brandon Iyuk's not practicing. Deebo Samos is a really good football player, but three alpha guys like the Bears have? Best. Yeah, I would agree with that. I believe that is a shot as well. And the reason why cap is we can look at individuals like Justin Jefferson. He's the tippy top of the wide receivers in the NFL, but his room is not as deep. We say it's same thing with Tyree Kill. We like what the Miami Dolphins are. I mean, with Waddle, Tyree Kill, we know that Hill can be unstoppable as a wide receiver. But again, is the room as deep? The Dallas Cowboys with CD lamb? Who doesn't like a CD lamb or who doesn't like Jamar Chase with Cincinnati? But again, it's about the quality and the depth. So that's why the Bears could be the best wide receiver core because individual accomplishments are one thing with some of these guys I mentioned, but with the Bears and their depth chart, you have three guys that can make a difference, I believe. It's unbelievable. And your guy, Tyler Scott, who you like got top end speed. Just got to take the next step. Let's go. Did you hear Tommy's thoughts though, Shay? Cap about Tyler Scott? I mean, so you trust the eyes of Tommy because he played the position at high level. Yes, he talked about the kind of route running or just the approach that he takes to be able to catch a football. How it has to improve. I thought that was very key in our Waddle Wednesday show a couple days yesterday. Because Tommy, Tyler Scott has top end breakaway speed. Tommy never was blessed with that. So he had to be a technician in how he ran his routes. And I remembered him telling me that his father, I think they called him the general. Robert E. Lee Waddle. That's his name. He said, the general told him, Tom, you're going to get hit. So you may as well catch the football on top of it. And that's how he became so good because I said, what do you catch the ball with? And he said, you catch the ball with your eyes, not your hands, not your chest. You look it into your hands with your eyes. And that dude did not drop passes. Shane, watch Tyler Scott begin a chance tonight and his route running. And especially if it's a deep ball where he looks like he's chasing a paper airplane. So the football, where it's like, especially if it's over his head and he's just trying to, it's the way he approaches trying to catch the football. I noticed that in the last game too. But Tommy makes a good point for someone who's learning at the position who played it. He wants Tyler Scott to be better with his route running and catching ability. Well, I mean, that top end speed, everyone is not blessed with that. Hopefully, Tyler could be an impact player for the Bears at some point this year. Yeah, I think the good news for him is most of his routes are going to be straight lines, just sit in the slot and run a scene. Let's go. That works on coach football 25. Well, if they're in cover three hoodie, you know what to do. Four birds. Brad Biggs wrote up that the Bears are looking for help at the defensive tackle position after whiffing on the Matt Jude on trade effort. The Bears are now looking for answers behind Jervon Dexter and Andrew Billings and are combing the waiver wire potentially for them. Shot or no shot. You hear this? That's going to be the end for Dominique Robinson. I'm not so sure about that. Dominique Robinson's put on weight in a good way. He looks really, really good. But if they're looking for D tackle help, that's what you said, right? Yeah, they're looking for somebody more inside. But it does feel like like Dominique Robinson has put on weight. It kind of feels like that would be an option that they could move inside if they wanted to. If they needed something like Zach Pickens battling an injury right now, the depth they're so concerning. It feels like they have some internal options. I would think Dominique Robinson would be a part of that break glass in an emergency. The fact that they're going to go look for junkyard pieces tells me they're not that satisfied with any option they have in their building. Maybe in terms of interior play, and when you look at Dom Robinson, maybe they feel like really, really talented cat. We like where he's at in year three, but he's only going to play on the exterior, not the interior of that line. So, Dominic Robinson is an end piece. Is he not right on right defensive end? Can he play left defensive end to like, he's more of an edge. Okay. So, all right. So, I understand what your point is, Shay, because at defensive tackle, you had to find out if Gervon Dexter is a guy. I would say it's a shot that they'll be looking at other pieces, as for sure. But Dominic Robinson, at this point in time, Cap, in front of me, is Demarcus Walker, Austin Booker, then Dominic Robinson's third on this depth chart. Okay. So, Demarcus Walker is a guy that can be a little interchangeable, right? Yes. So, because when they had him gokway and sweat, he would kick inside some or be a backup at one of the two edge positions. So, read me the depth chart again. Walker is, well, we know he's going to start. It's Walker, followed by Austin Booker, and then Dominic Robinson at the right defensive end. That's how Austin Booker's Flash, man. Yeah. I mean, Kip Shay is flowers. That kid from the University of Minnesota, because he's not allowed to say that he also played at Kansas. That kid has looked really good in camp and in preseason. It's really good. It's a shot that they'll be looking at other pieces, Shay. I don't think it's a shot that Robinson would be cut. I think they still like the kid as a rotation piece. It's going to be tough to get snaps. Go for legend. Austin Booker. Stand them in his way. Now, Noah Sewell, that's a different story. That'll be all. Boy. See, he's no penne. Well, that's for sure. Like that. I think that'll be all. But what we have to look at, Kip, is a Greg Strowman or a Steve Baskerville going to be around. That'd be Micah, Steve's cousin. The Weatherman. The Weatherman's kid. That's actually Aaron Baskerville, because he was a basketball star. But Micah, you've got Seals been banged up. It's going to be hard to make this roster, man. And that's why you're scouring that cut down list, because if you look at the Bears and go, "Wow. Bears are only a seven-win team at three the year before. And it's going to be really hard to make that roster." Does Daniel Hardy make it? What happens to Wheeler? Or what happens to Vailus? Somebody's going to pick these dudes up if they hit the street. See, I won't let hard knocks fool me. Just because they're featuring these guys, doesn't mean they're going to make the football team. Correct. I'm just saying it makes them a bigger story when they get caught. That's all that is. We're pretty much set, though. I think we kind of know outside of a few pieces who's going to make the team who's not. They'll be all for Carter on that left guard, too. Here's Shay Norley. All right. Talked about this a little yesterday. Cap alluded to something. I want to get to the Tigers. Banched Havi Baez yesterday at Riggly Field after a Golden Sombrero on Tuesday night. They instead played 24-year-old shortstop Trey Sweeney. He homered in the game. People are wondering if Havi Baez's time in Detroit is over, whether it's in season now with the final month. Coming up or at the end of the year, they buy him out, figure out a way out of the deal. If Havi's time in Detroit is over and he becomes a free agent and you can get him on the cheap shot or no shot, the Cubs should bring him back on a cheap flyer. Shot. He had great success here. It's embarrassing. Absurd. So no one should give him a second chance. Just someplace else, Cap. That's all. He's literally not a major league baseball player. You know, maybe that's your team's fault, not his, or a combination of both. It's all I know is, he was second for MVP here. Well, you understand though, Cap. I mean, the second time around is always the toughest. I just think that you heard the ovation from the fans for Havi Baez when he played a couple of days ago. That's the memory that Cup fan should have. Not the 32 year old guy that is swinging out of his ass every time he comes to the plate. Let the good times be there for Baez. The cool slide, the swag that he brought to the Chicago Cubs, that's what you should remember. Don't bring him back here for this nonsense. Let's not do that. He's better than that. So you would not pick him up on a flyer for the league minimum because Shea's club's paying all the money. Yeah, I just, I think that the Cubs are better than that. I think they are. Don't do it for nostalgia for for sloppy seconds of Baez. The Cubs are better than that. Why can't I take him and let go of wisdom, who's terrible? He was a key pinch hitter of the night. Yeah, yesterday. Havi is terrible. The key pinch hitter. But Shea, Havi had success here. We're not talking about. Yeah, he's to 40. He was second for MVP. He still elite defensively. He's not only defensively anymore by the metrics and cap. That was seven years ago. He was second for seven years. It's been like just a piece, not a starter. I'm asking him just to be a, you know, bench guy. I know you got John Maley. Here's the hitting coach system, hitting coach. Maybe he can unlock him again. Cap, just let it go. If I had to wake up and Detroit every day, I probably wouldn't be good at my job either. Margie and Greco joining us on Cap and Jay. I think go quite to that level. Well, I mean, pretty close. I mean, there's no reason for that shot. There's no reason for that. There is no benefit to bringing Havi and other than the fans get to go down memory lane. And then three months later, they'll all hate him because he's just able to do the same thing he always does. That's why, let the good memories be there, Cap. You don't need that. You don't need that. By the way, if I have my druthers, I have a choice against what the young Bush or wisdom in that spot, I would give Bush the opportunity for the ad bat. Same here. Same here. Yeah. I understand that there's numbers down that wasn't that privy to watching the game. But the idea you bring in Patrick wisdom was a two one pitch fly out to left field, something like that. You got six homers this year. What are we doing here? I didn't like that. It's a 90 something fun. Nice guy. Good family, man. That'll be all. Yeah. So that's a no shot for me, Shay. That's it. He goes someplace else. But I think that bias, people still love Havi for what he brought to the championship team. That's how it should stay right there. And that tribute video was awesome for bias. It didn't inspire me at all against against the Cubs, but still he took a beat, took his helmet off. He waved to the crowd the other day. I just thought that was awesome. Remember that day he took John Lackey of the Ven Cardinals deep deep into the right center field bleachers in the NLDS three run Jack will advance. Thank you. See you later, St. Louis. Take that. Yeah. So that's why that's a great memory. Those memories are done if he comes back in the Cubs uniform. That's all. All right, coming up around the NFL and don't forget deal breaker. What are you mad at? Get on board with Havi back as a cup. No. And the best thing would be if all of a sudden he recaptured some of the glory. Norling would be this beside himself. See, it's not even about that. You just want to stick it to Shay and that's not right. Pretty much. Okay. Well, I'm being practical as a baseball man. Telling you that that's enough. You bring him back here. Minimum deal. Yeah. Hold on a sec. It's Dave. My house master. Boney can play as much as he played. Havi's better than him. He's not. He's not. He's not. He's not. His OBS is like 504. He's the worst player in the sport. He's not. Take that. Master Boney better than bias. How about that? Yeah, that's not true. Coming up. Deal breakers at 835 on Captain Jay Hood. Follow Chicago's home for sports on Twitch at ESPN 1000 Chicago. Captain Jay Hood are back on Chicago's home for sports. ESPN Chicago. It both sucks. He sucks. I'm just a fan. I'm not a football developer. I love the Green Bay Packers. The guy is from. But there he goes. This is not Detroit, man. This is the Super Bowl. I love winning. He starts to come any more. This is a really thickly built guy. I mean, what's the answer you're looking for on these things? It's time to go around the NFL right here on Captain Jay Hood. But with you till 10 o'clock, the greenie comes in followed by Carmon and Yurko. And then Bears pregame would waddle and sell the 2.30. The Bears network pregame at 5. Bears in Chiefs at 7.20. Then our postgame show with Peggy and Yurko. Will we go deep into the night with Miller and Pat the designer? That's the hope. We go around the NFL. Here's Shay Norley. Shay. All right. I want to start with some news yesterday. The Denver Broncos made their starting quarterback official. It will be rookie bow nicks. I have looked two preseason games. I'm probably overreacting. But he just looks prepared, comfortable, patient. Everything you want to see from a quarterback. He's efficient in passing, gets digs that back foot in, steps up, rips the ball over the middle. Everything you want to see. Now they've made it official. He's the starter. Anybody starting to come to my side? This might be the second best of the rookie quarterbacks in year one. Bow wow wow nicks. Great haircut. Good shave. He's a very mature kid. He's married. How many years he play hoodie? Five in college? Seemingly. Yeah. He's already 32 years old. Yeah. He's got a mortgage. Three kids. Bow nicks. But you like the mileage though, Cap. It's not so much where it's like, boy, that's an old timer that can't get it done. This is perfect for Sean Payton. Because he feels like he's working with a veteran. Even though he's a rookie, a veteran because of how many teams he's played for in college and the situations he's seen. He's seen a lot. Yeah. He's a very polished guy. And I was watching the interview with Sean Payton yesterday. And don't like when he says how they hoodwinked the Raiders. The Raiders weren't taking him. And we called them to see if they wanted to trade up because we're trading back. Making it seem like they're not going to take the quarterback and then they took the quarterback. He said we were worried about the Giants. They didn't take him. And so they're all excited that they got him. So we'll see. I don't know if he's the second best. There's a lot of love out there. A lot for Jaden Daniels. We'll see how that goes. I've seen multiple people picking him to be offensive rookie of the year. I don't agree with that. I think that goes to Caleb if he's healthy. But Bonix is a talented kid. You know what? It's a process of elimination too. Would you rather have to work with Bonix or work with Jared Statham or Zach Wilson? I mean, you'd think Zach Wilson would be like, you know, a fresh start. Here I go. No, that's what he is, Cap. He's a backup. I don't think he ever even had a chance. I think Peyton was all in on Bonix from the get go. All in. Here's Shane Orlett. Yeah, I'm also some drama new England now. Head coach Gerard Mayo said Drake May. 100% ready to go. Could start week one. Tom Brady's going to be a little angry because these rookie quarterbacks are going to start. And just like I did the exercise yesterday. Historically, when you're taken in the first round and you're not sitting behind a proven quality veteran, you start if you're a quarterback. Jacobi Brissette stinks. He's stunk all preseason. He's stunk basically his whole career. Brother. He's he's a nobody. Drake May should start, right? Not necessarily. If he's 100% ready per the head coach, he should start. If he's 100% ready, but the bottom line is you're not winning the Super Bowl this year. So it's not about is he ahead of Jacobi Brissette or whoever else is in camp. It's what's the best thing for the development of the guy we've cast our lot with as our next starter. Whether if they believe he won't be affected or he's ready to go play him. But if oh boy, I wish we didn't have to, but Jacobi don't look good, you're not winning anyway. So the development of Drake May is paramount. 100% correct. It is 100% correct cap. And I like Drake May. Hell. She almost collapsed on us when Drake May fell to the Patriots. They call it an ambulance because he had prayed that that would happen for because he's looking for a franchise quarterback. And again, Bailey's happy. Jacobi Brissette. Drake May. Drake May is the guy. And sorry, Tom. That's just how it works. We could do the exercise cap of saying, "All right, Bailey Zappi for 18 weeks." Could you win more games with Drake May learning on the job or Bailey Zappi who's been there and done that? Right. If you tell me Drake May is going to go 6 and 11 and Bailey Zappi is going to go 5 and 12. But it's going to help Drake May to not play. At the start then you play U, Shea, J-Moor, Me or Bailey Zappi. That's a no-brainer. Whatever's best so that that kid for the next decade is ready to go, that's how it's done. Shea, are they cutting Brissette or moving along so Zappi could be too? Oh, God. Don't get Zappi the hell out. I'm just wondering. You got to cut Zappi. Oh, cut Zappi. Okay. Zappi's got to go. I feel like if Brissette stinks Zappi's awful. Awful. He's cute and puts, you can put him in your pocket. Jacoby Brissette's just cooked product. He's older. He's just, he's a journeyman. Nobody. He's Mitchell Travisky. Bailey Zappi is not an NFL player. He's awful. How about that cap? Bailey Zappi, not an NFL player. I mean, this guy, no really. This guy. How can you say that about a Bailey Zappi? Not an NFL player he said. Some guys aren't like sorry. Wow. Here's Jay Norley. Interesting conversation on sportsman like this morning with the disappearance of Jim Harbaugh, Nick Saban, others from college football. They were asking, is there a villain in new college football? No urban mire, no Jim Harbaugh, no Nick Saban. Alabama, we think, takes a little bit of a step down. Georgia maybe hasn't hit that peak of consistency. Just like winning a massive dynasty to be a national villain yet. Does college football have a villain? What did I say yesterday? It's a nine o'clock hour when we were talking about blank. What college coach were we talking about yesterday? Was it Dabo? Mm-mm. My mind always jumps to Dabo. Oh, Pete Carroll? No, we talked about my Gundy. Great. We did. We talked about Pete getting a new job as a professor at USC. We did talk about a little Dabo, but you're right. Mike Gundy was the guy you highlighted. We talked about Mike Gundy on three different levels. The whole thing of him talking about how the portals closed. Don't look for any more money. Football season, we talked about that. That's the guy because even before the season he's been quoted twice. Don't forget the other thing too. The drunk driving thing, right? That one was rough. Well, his player got caught for a DUI and goes, "I've drank more than that." Just on a regular basis, something along those lines. That was reckless. That was a tough quote. Yeah. I still think the quote, like players ringing up his phone with the portal closed in camp asking for more money. I feel like more people agree with Gundy than don't on that one. I just think that if you're looking for a guy with a black hat, it's him. I wish his program was better, so he'd be more relevant. But he's just going to be a guy there, kind of like Huggy Bear Cap. Just in the program forever. He's Huggy Bear. You can't touch him, right? He's that guy. Gundy could be in that job for another 30 years with that bad hair and those bad quotes. But he cut the hair. The hair's cut. The mullet's still there. Is there still a mullet? No. No mullets? Unless he's regrown at the picture I saw of him playing golf this summer, the mullet's gone. I would say if you're looking for a villain, that's that guy. But I can't do it with Gundy. Just personally, I can't look at Gundy as a villain. He's like, what if Kirk Ference were better? Like the guy wins nine and a half games a year at Oklahoma State, the second program in the state. He's going to be there forever. He's a legend. He's the best head coach they'll ever have. Model a consistency. They don't always win the big 12, but they seem to always be in it. Is he ever gotten, he never been in the playoff, right? No. He's been in the doorstep. But you can't like my boy is because you're the second best program in your state. And that's not a shot at the second best basketball program. I don't think so. The athletic program Michigan is more highly regarded than Michigan State, right? Correct. Sure. And you've got this Hall of Fame legendary awesome coach in is now. He's won a national title and gone to seven billion final four. So that's more success than Mike Gundy. But Mike Gundy's legendary down. Didn't he play there? Gundy's more like Dantonio was at Michigan State. The guy that comes in and kind of reverts a consistent program that can contend for a conference title. Is at another level. Yeah. Is those two good to be like Mike Gundy's more Kirk Farron's Mark Dantonio, but with the longevity of a 30 year career there. Oakland third in that list by the way of Michigan. The Golden Grizzly. Yes. Greg campy. Yes. Far. Who's the basketball coach at Michigan that replaced John Howard? Boy, I can't think of the guy's name. I'll look it up because he's heard on the list. The guy from FAU, right? Oh, yeah. Dusty May. Yes. Thank you. Okay. So he's gone to a final four, but I would argue with you in basketball, just basketball. It goes Izzo by a mile and then it goes Greg campy. Forty first year at Oakland has gone to multiple tournaments at Oakland. Yes. One. He's won 600 games and then it's Dusty May. Yes. What do we chat? Is Oakland University a better basketball program than the University of Michigan? I'm talking about the coach. I'll take Dusty May. Oh, wow. Then you're wrong. Let's over the phone lines here. The ticket. 313. Right. What are we doing? How did we get there? I'm asking if college football's got a villain. We're talking about Dusty May versus Greg campy. How did we get here? He's been drinking out. No, he's been drinking. You could people know he's been drinking a lot, a lot of bourbon. Okay. Can't put the Elijah Craig down for the lovely God. He said, Jeff, we're going a lot this week. We're trying to call that sweetie a villain. I've been drinking St Elmo's bourbon. So good. Yeah. Look what cap. You know we know this, right? The staff knows you've been drinking a lot from heaven. Oh, is that a new bourbon? Coming up, we will give you deal breakers and Tom Thayer at nine on Captain Jay Hood. If you missed something, get the podcast on the ESPN Chicago app. Jeff and Jay Hood are back on Chicago's home for sports, ESPN Chicago. We all have to make choices in sports and in life. It could be running on third down. You ran the same third down situation and you ran the same place twice. You're getting paid for that. I cannot believe the call. We're managing finances. This country, you've got to make the money for it. Or it could be a deal breaker. Deal breakers. You have a new roommate, Jay, let's go. You have a new roommate come to live with you. They bring their dog. Now, the building that you live in is a no pet building, but your roommate has convinced the landlord that it's an emotional support animal. And so everybody's cool with it. They bring this dog in the only issue. You find out this dog has severe anxiety. It wakes up in the middle of the night, just goes into these barking fits, goes nuts. And your roommate is shirking the duties of cleaning up after it. This dog sheds all over your floor, carpet, couch, everything. He said sheds, right? Yep. Okay. Your roommate's never getting a vacuum out. Do you tell this roommate you either got to get rid of the dog or move out? Uh, I don't want to be a guy who breaks up a family at that being the guy and his dog. I just kick him out. Period. You're done. Go on. Get out. And if he won't leave, I'm gone. So are you having a conversation first, Cap? I'm going to. Hey, we got a talk. I'm a dog guy. I love dogs. I've had my own. Guess what? That dog is not well trained. That dog's out of its mind and you don't do it. It's not even just the dog part of it. You don't take care of the dog. I'm not going to lay down on the couch with fur everywhere and the dog has accidents and you're not cleaning it up. That's not my responsibility. So you've got one of two choices. Either you're moving out or I'm moving out, but it's going to be resolved within 24 hours. Period. Yeah. I think that if you can't move the meter after that shade, then that's a deal breaker. But we're having a conversation first. I think the way Cap laid the law down, hey, if you can't get this fixed, you're gone. I ain't leaving. You're gone and take the dog with you. You just give the dog up for adoption while they're away for a weekend? No. You take it to the pound. This dog needs a loving home. You don't do that again. Yes. There's a connection there. Like it's harder to lose a dog in your family than some of your family members. That's true. When I had to put a dog down, there are family members that wouldn't have been as hard to say goodbye to. Damn. To speak the truth says a lot for Uncle Milton. My God. I got it. Right. Uncle Milton. I'm not talking about my kids. My brother. No. But there are a boy that was tough, but it was nothing like my family members said if I got the call from Mindy and said, oh, they passed and be like, not my dog. Oh, who died? Dang. Wow. Cubs. Eight. Tigers to. I'm just honest, man. Take that. Standard operating procedure. Oh, yeah. That's cap. Well, it would affect him differently, but the dog Yoshi died last year. You were off. And I'm still angry at you about that. You left me there on an island by myself. I was devastated. Yoshi's going to die. What? And man, that was hard way harder than losing a cousin. Boy, you hold a grudge. Should I put it on the pole? What's more difficult losing your dog or a cousin? Do you know what cousins I like in their certain cousins that take her leave? That's the God. 60/40 dog. I think in that spot. Yeah, I feel like the more I'm thinking of the more, I'm like, yeah, if I had a button and it was like cousin or dog, one of them has to go. Yeah. Yeah. I think that's true. Yes, they asked Caleb on part in my take. Push a button and you win 10 Super Bowls, but a Bears fan dies. Push a button. A cousin goes or my dog, one of my three. So long. Bye-bye, cousin. See you later. Thank God. Poor cousin Eddie. No more Eddie at the family parties. We had to have Sparky here. What happened to cousin Eddie? I don't know. Sparky, come here, baby. You wanted something to this? Here you go. Would you rather, I understand, Jamo, would you rather drop off your dog on the eatings if you don't want them anymore or your cousin that you don't like? Why would the cousin, especially if you owed me money? That's right. That's right. That's right. Get out. Here's Shay Doerlek. All right, you successfully get your friend a new job at your company. It's great, dude. Your friend needed a gig. You found him one. The only problem is your company has a policy that gives employees you a $1,500 bonus for a successful referral after six months of employment. At the six month mark, your friend who works a lower level gig more hours for less pay doesn't get to see their family a lot demands that you share the bonus with them. Are you sharing the bonus or are you telling your buddy, "Hey, kick rocks, pal. This is my money." That's too close to home, though, Cap, but go ahead. I'm confused. The buddy, was he down and out or he just got him a better job? He needed a better job. You got him a better gig. You get a $1,500 bonus after he's been there for six months. He's upset that he has a worse job than you do and what is demanding you share the bonus with him. Because he performed well and I recommended him, I get the bonus. Correct. First of all, how does he even know I got the bonus? It's company policy. If he refers someone and he gets the bonus, who is this? Guess what? No. He's a really good buddy, hey, hoodie, so glad this has worked out for you, man. I'm glad we get to work together. By the way, I got a referral bonus for recommending you. Let's go to dinner tonight. I'm buying him. That would be what I would do. Keith is going to bust with this door any minute now. You better leave. Why? He doesn't. Well, Cap, if it's your cousin, you ain't getting nothing. This is true. You're even alive. What are you doing asking me for money? You're lucky you are even alive. This is true. But no, I would not share the bonus. I would not. No. I would not. No. And if they want it, it's a deal breaker. I would not share the bonus. Money hungry people, man. What if I just take you to dinner? Is that good enough, Shay? How about dinner? I would love that. Dinner. Oh, did you like it better on the street? You can go back. I'll start spreading rumors, right? But no, I'm not sharing the bonus. Cap, absolutely not. Correct. Take him to dinner. Dinner's fine. Hey, if there are golfer. Hey. Hey, tomorrow, you want to go play at XYZ public course. It's really good. I'm taking us. I got a bonus for referring you. So are days on me, man. But cut him a check? No. That. No. Sorry. Shay. Is that a real deal breaker from down the hall or is that something that you read about? As we have more deal breakers right around the corner on the Cap and Jhood Morning Show. Welcome back. Welcome back to Captain Jhood on Chicago's on for sports, ESPN Chicago. Deal breakers, who's Shay Norley Shay? There's something popular going on right now, a trend, if you will, called dark tourism. People are choosing to vacation in areas with high travel advisories. Brother. Some of the most popular dark tourism destinations, Iraq, Afghanistan, and newly opened for tourism North Korea. Do you have a group of friends who are scheduling a trip to North Korea and want you to join with them? Would you go? That is absolutely a thousand percent no. Why not? First of all, staying in a Ramada Inn or a Holiday Inn for me is like camping, roughing it. I know. That's like being a stop. I get it. My wife goes camping during a tent. Never. We've been together 25 years. They go roughly three times a year. I'm batting 0 for 75. No. I'm not going to Iraq, Afghanistan, North Korea. Yeah, no shot. What's your threat count at the Ramada? Oh my gosh, we've been on those sandpaper sheets. The community water. I got my own. Take that. Well, that's a lot of Tupperware dishes for you, Cal, because I know you're not going to eat in those countries either. No shot. I'm packing my own stuff. Cap, you get double points at the Marriott in Pyongyang. Are you going now? No. Remember when Rodman Hoodie got paid? He took a bunch of former NBA players with him and they played a game for Kim Jong Un. I do call this, yes. And they each got paid roughly other than Dennis. Dennis got it at a different level because he put it together. But I think each player got like a million dollars for going. And the question was if they asked me to coach him, hey, you want to coach us? Get us ready for this thing and we'll pay you a million dollars. Would you go to North Korea? And that scenario because they're protected and they were all, you know, taken care of by the military that I would probably have done it. My God. Yeah. Okay. Here's what I need to know, Shay. Can I get my college football streamed in those countries? Wow. Otherwise, yes. Hoodie, I blocked. I'm just guessing. No shot. No. Can I get my bear game on you? You tried turning on the bear game. They're kicking your door down immediately. That's illegal. Get out. No football. Okay. Kim Jong Un's big in the NBA loves the NBA. Yeah. Bulls games, Bulls replays. They just run the 96 finals on repeat. Oh, okay. And they tell him it's current. So that's their water torture. Keep watching Bulls basketball on a repeat. We're going to make you watch more Levine 96 hours of more Zach Levine highlights. No. No, I can't take it anymore. Please take me back. No, another mystery. No, no, don't help me. I'll call cap. Cap will save me. Patrick Williams ever going to develop somebody. Get me out of here. Another bad quarter three by Patrick Williams now, please 100% I'd help you there's there's me with the daily newspaper so you can just show proof of life. I've watched a lot of bad pools basketball here in North Korea. Someone helped me. Was that movie the interview where like it's like James Franco and Seth Rogen go over there to interview the dictator and then that like all the groceries are just cardboard cut out. Indictable. It's crazy. It's just making you watch Alex Caruso perimeter defense highlights. All right, Shay, we got you one more before Tom Thayer. All right, your wife has retired. You are still working. So your wife is spending a lot of her time at home alone during the day trying to figure out what she can do with all the new time that she has on her hands. Finally, she started connecting with men that she dated in high school and college spends all day chatting with them online, reliving those old memories. She's taking a trip down memory lane, getting a bit nostalgic. You have an issue with this or all good? Yeah, I have an issue with it. How would she feel? I was connecting with all my ex-girlfriends. I don't think she'd care. She's busy. I promise you, my wife, she claims to not be jealous. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Call me last week. I answer. I'm like, hun, I'm in the middle of something. I'll call you back. I forgot. Like an hour later, I called her. She's like, okay, where were you? What were you doing? I'm like, what? She's like, I find it odd. I call you and then you don't call me back for an hour because it sounds like you're doing something. Yeah, I was. I was. Yes. What were you doing, Cap? I was recording a recap. Who are you doing, Cap? I was writing a sports cast. I'm like, I was working. What are you doing? I'm like, and you claim you're not jealous. Yeah, well, Cap, she just wants to keep tabs on you. That's how it is. That's it. Just trying to keep tabs on you. When you're just doing work, man, always keep me down. Yeah, man. She's always keeping you down. I've sold you out for years though. You don't listen. You're better than that. That's it. Tom Thayer, with his thoughts about the bears and the chiefs, our coverage starts at 2.30 right here on the home of the Bears. ESPN 1000. All right, two minutes. Here we go. Excuse me.
