Alright, heading in to hour number two of our three hour show today, Chris Hallow. Tony Good Jr. is on a plane with the Padres from St. Louis to Tampa, Florida. Not Tampa Bay. No, not Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay is not a city. Tampa is a city. Yeah, Padres lost to the Cardinals 4-1 today. They split the four game series, disappointingly so. But, you know, what are you going to do? I mean, disappointingly so is right. Yeah, because you're on the first two and you think you could have won last night for sure. Yeah, I mean, we were sitting here feeling good and I'm not saying that this team is on the way down. And you said it earlier, this guy is not falling, but we did feel like this team was going to just crush the Cardinals this series. I thought the Cardinals were right to be swept. But, you know, they got, they hit three ground balls into a hole last night against Robert Suarez in the bottom of the ninth inning. The odds of that aren't very good. Two outs, right? Yeah. Single, single, single ball game. And you know, that's happened to Suarez maybe twice all year. So, you know, they went 1 for 15 with runners in scoring position the last two days. Not going to win you many ball games even against the Cardinal team that I think is kind of, you know, packed it in. Certainly the Cardinal fans have packed it in. Oh my goodness. Where were they? Nowhere. The greatest fans in the history of sports. Not there, Chris. Yeah. Didn't see any of them. It was hot. I'll give them that. But they live in St. Louis. This is what they do. And when the Cardinals are winning, they pack the place. Yeah. During the months of August, September. Doesn't matter if it's 110 degrees, there's still fans in the stands. Didn't see. I'll give you greatest fans in the history of sports out there. So something to keep in mind. Padres will play the a race tomorrow. We'll be on at two o'clock tomorrow, a quick one hour show. But it will include a visit with Tanner Scott on our Friday interviews. Oh, he's scared. We have to say that, right? Yes, I have to say. Scheduled. Just in case something happens, but we'll probably have Tanner Scott on right now. That's for you to win qualification for our grand prize. That's a two night stay at resorts world, Las Vegas, two tickets to see Carrie Underwood's reflection show. It's backed by overwhelming demand and has been extended through spring of 2025. You can get tickets for this year or early next year at access.com, a access.com or rw Las Vegas dot com, or you can qualify to win a pair and go to Las Vegas right now in a round of Chris versus the fans. If you had one shot, one opportunity to take down the human all manack himself, how would he do? Now is your time. Listen to me. This guy. Stagers. Now is your opportunity to win a prize. Well, I hope you know what you're in for Chris versus the fans starts now on 97 three, the fan. All right, by the way, before scraping reads the rules, I'm surprised we've made an hour through the show. And you have yet to comment on my t-shirt, which is what's wrong with it. Real men wear pink. Yeah. All right. You didn't have your comments on this? No, no. I thought you would. No, I'm not the guy who is is mad at the city connect uniforms. I actually like, I think, wow, I'm about to say something that might be careful. I think wearing pink and purple is very manly. All right. Thank you. Because it means you're confident in yourself. Real men wear pink. Yeah. Somewhere it's breast cancer awareness. True. And this is the t-shirt we got for winning the nether softball championship last night. Oh, so. That's the main reason I'm wearing it. Oh, oh, oh, I see how you brought this up. Yes. We won a championship. We won another title in the old Poway softball league last night. So what did you do? Congrats to the guys. I contributed defensively last night and not play. I did not hit well in the two games. But I felt I got a very nice season. Braden and I are on that team. And we've won a lot of championships. The guys I play with are all really good. And so, you know, it's fun. You know, now that I have my shoulder surgery behind me starting to ramp it up. You're trying to ramp it up and think that you can get back on that team. Although, I think my throwing days are overcast. Well, the only position for you, then, is first base. And I have that locked down. So I can be I can't be catcher. You need to throw. They're not going to let you. I'll be second baseman. And then I can just throw it under here. Dink it over there. Roll it under there. Yeah, we'll see if they let you do that. Anyway, all right. So that's why I'm wearing a pink today. All right, good. Good for you. But, you know, I always I try to wear the championship T-shirt at least the next day. And then, you know, that goes back in the closet. On the other hand, I'm wearing my many faces of Jason T-shirts. Yes, you have a you have quite the array of horror T-shirts anymore. You should. Is there a place you can just go like a website that sells only horror related T-shirts? Yes, but the problem is they don't sell in the size that I need. I don't like these shirts because they're too short. I need longer shirts. You you don't have, you know, you have tread lightly over there with. Well, you have a body that needs a certain size of shirt. Yeah, I mean, I have a long torso is what you're trying to say. Here's a T-shirt that says I like horror movies and maybe like three people. Does that mean? Oh, that's actually a great T-shirt for me. What does that mean? It means I like horror movies that I only like three people. Oh, well, I can get it for you. Can add it to your company. I can add it to the cart. If you want me to, you get your choice of colors. I know you want black. Oh, yes, yes, please. You always get black. You know, I have a Ghostbusters shirt too that I just bought that I love. I'm becoming a child the older I get. I mean, I don't want to be crazy here. They have they have XL. They have two XL there. Do they have XL? Do they have two XLT? I don't know what that is. Tall. Oh, no. Anyway, let me get to the rules. We'll get back to the show talk a little bit later. I'm going to be I'm going to be shopping while we play Chris versus the fans. You have to make it through three questions. Each question will get more difficult. If you get the question right, you move on. If you get it wrong and Chris gets it right, you're eliminated. But if Chris gets it wrong, then you move on to the next question or you win. If you're first time playing, let us know before you get into it. You will get that question for free.

I we haven't done this all week, so I'm a little rusty on this, but here we go. Garrett, you are up first. What's up? What's up? How's it going? First time playing. All right. Good to have you with us. All right. Good. I love the energy. Garrett, here we go. Question two. All right. What color flag signifies the final lap of a NASCAR race? The flag. What color flag signifies the final lap of a NASCAR race? Final lap. They're black and white. It's going black and white. He's 50. He might look out though. He may look out because I really don't know. You have no idea? I do, but I can't think of it. The final lap is not green, not red. It's got to be white. Sorry about that. I wasn't sure. Yeah. The checkered flags for the finish. The finish. Yeah. The white flag signifies there's only one lap remaining. One lap remaining. Yeah. I wasn't sure on that. I kind of almost messed it up. Someone's agreeing in the chat. No, green means that it's back going after a year. Or starting the race or you're only starting the race. Yeah. That's how it is. What is when a race is suspended? What type of flag is that? The California state flag. No, it's a red flag, California state. They just throw around the bear. Yeah. They put that out there. All right. Let's go. There's a couple of NASCAR questions by the way, people. Let's go to our next contestant, John Temecula. Hello, John. Hey, John. Hey, guys. How's it going? Oh, he's good. Oh, he's good. Oh, he's good. Yes. Yeah. Let's go. Are you ready to play, John? You're always ready. Look at this rocket roll. All right. I'm feeling it. It should be a pretty easy question, I think, but who leads Major League Baseball in home runs this season? Aaron Judge. Aaron Judge, just around. Aaron Judge. All right, question number. But as I said earlier, even he had a swam, so pro for fans don't despair. Yankees fans wanted them out. They did, man. They were. They were. It was 51 home runs or later. Yeah. Look at them. All right. All right. Mr. John and Temecula, what sports team, what sport team Jersey does Cameron wear in Ferris Bueller's Day Off? Cameron. Feel like you would like this movie, John. Remember that movie? I believe it's the Chicago Blackhawks. Chicago Blackhawks. Tough break. Tough break. Oh, no. Oh, no. Because I remember they're sitting out in the stands at Riggly Field and it is Chicago. So that's why he answered that. But the guy Cameron's wearing a Red Wings jersey. Ah, yeah. Sorry. That's right. Sorry, John. I appreciate you. All right. Thanks, buddy. We appreciate always great having you on. All right. We moved to the next contestant. Let's go to Casey in San Diego. Hello, Casey. Hey, guys. What's up? Not too much. Let's get into this. Good luck to you. Question number one. Who is the starting quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys this year? That'll be Dak Prescott. Dak Prescott is correct. Boo. Boo. Why do the Cowboys hate him so much? It's so weird. Well, I don't know. They don't hate coding. Yeah, they blame him for every loss. Maybe they should really blame the owner, but... Jared Jones? Did you see what Jerry said the other day, by the way? He says not a big deal or whatever. No, when he signed CD Lam, and they asked him about, you know, maybe somebody else. He goes, "There isn't anyone on Earth who could do general manager of this team better than me." That's what Jerry said. The people that are winning championships are going to get better. That's what he said. I'm just telling it. That's what he said. All right, Casey. Here we go. Question number two. Who has collected the most hits for the Padres in the last seven calendar days? No, brother. We know these things. That encountered a day. Watch every game, so I should tell this. Let's go with the ride. All right. Correct. We got it. Nice job. Eleven hits in the last seven days. I was going to guess Manny, but it was one of the other. He had ten. All right. All right. Here we go, Casey. Question number three. You get this right, or Chris gets it wrong, and you're heading to a qualification for Las Vegas. I'm still shopping over here, by the way. I know. Makes me nervous. What illegal activity is credited with the birth of stock car racing? I knew you said we're going to be a lot of NASCAR questions. I was hoping it would get me. Do you have an answer? What illegal activity was credited with the start of stock cars? The Demolition Dervy? Demolition Dervy. Not true, but Chris has to know it's a state of danger. No, I have a chance to miss this. The only even remotely illegal activity I can think of that would get me to think that people were driving cars really fast would be trying to get away from law officers who were chasing people who were bootlegging. So I'm going to go with bootlegging. I didn't know it. I know it. Sorry, Casey. Thank you. Sorry. I could even-- What was another guess? That was it. Yeah. Bootlegging during prohibition. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Which, by the way, I've been thinking a lot about prohibition. Okay. Should we bring it back? Was it worth it? What? Provision? Telling everybody they couldn't drink? Yeah. What do you mean, was it worth it? You were there so you could tell me. Yeah. I'm just kidding. That was worth it. People on the chat, if you have any thoughts on prohibition, tell me if it was worth it. I was listening to a podcast the other day and I got really into it. Into prohibition and the reasons for it and bathtub gin and all that stuff. Move on. All right. Okay. Let's go to Clay in San Diego. Hello, Clay. It's a good thing they had prohibition because they've made about a thousand movies with that as a backdrop of the crime. Oh, yeah. So. It's how speak easy came to be. Without it, they would have nothing to write movies about. All right, Clay. Hello. How are you? Hi, Clay. I'm doing well, guys. Clay is going to play. Play is going to play. And this is the first time player. Oh, hey. All right. Good. There we go. Question. Thanks for jumping in here. Two. Another, another NASCAR question. What color strip of paint on the back of a NASCAR signifies you are a rookie? Yeah, bless it. Okay. Clay. I'm right with you. Well, let's go with blue, blue, blue. It's a good of guesses, any stay there, Clay. It's as good a guess as I'm going to give you. I didn't know that they do. They have a strip of, what is it, paint? It's like just the strip on the bottom of the car. A strip on the bottom of the car that basically tells the rest of the people that you're a new driver. Yeah, exactly. It's like the person. When you drive her, yeah, you run into on the freeway. I did today. I was like, can you go? Move over. Move over. I don't know. If I get this right, I'm going to be mad because it's going to be total luck and then Clay will get eliminated. How about orange? Orange. It's actually a nice feeling because you can see it going crazy. Is it correct? Clay is still alive. Play your alive. What it wasn't. It was yellow. Yellow. Did not know that. Did not know that the rookies were pointed out like that. All right. You need to go to the-- I need to go to the book because I don't have a-- I'm not happy with my number three question. You don't have another two questions. No, I have a number three question. I just don't-- I'm not happy with it. So let's see. All right. You want to play the Jeopardy theme for a minute? I got it. Here we go. Oh, this is number three. Yes. Oh, he's the first time player. Yeah. First time player. This could win it for you. Clay. All right. This is going to be really hard. But Chicago Cubs pitcher also played basketball for the Harlem Globetrotters. Chicago Cubs pitcher. Yeah. Are you the current pitcher? No, no, no, no. This person-- oh. It was old. Old Hossratborn? No. [LAUGHTER] Old Hoss. Oh my. Do you have any-- if you say you don't want to answer, that's OK because Chris has to still get away. There's no way I know this, Clay. You're going to win, I think. But you can guess anyway. Harry would. Harry would. You played for the Harlem Globetrotters, Paris. It's ready to imagine him in the Harlem Globetrotters uniform. Chris, what Chicago Cubs pitcher also played basketball for the Harlem Globetrotters? Stay there, Clay. Dave DeBuscher. Dave DeBuscher? No, DeBuscher. No, DeBuscher. OK. Ah! I picked one that was going to end the game, I think. You did end the game. Stay winner. Later. Play in your first appearance. You want to know the answer? It's got to be somebody I've never heard of. Well, here are the choices that they give me. Oh, they give me. There's a selection. OK. This is why I asked the question. OK. The first choice is Hippo Von. Oh, I remember Hippo. You remember Hippo? Yeah. I mean, I didn't see him pitch, but I remember the name. Then we have Mordecai Brown. Was another choice? Three-finger Mordecai Brown. He's nickname was Three-fingers. Did he have Three-fingers? Did he have Three-fingers? Pretty sure. I don't know why they would call him Three-finger Mordecai Brown if he had Four-fingers. And then the actual answer was Ferguson Jenkins. Really? Yeah. I wouldn't even have got that. Do you know who he is? Ferguson Jenkins? Yeah. Hall of Fame pitcher. Said he played for various MLB teams from 1965 through 1983. He also played basketball for the Globetrotters from '67 to '69. Ferguson Jenkins is a Hall of Fame pitcher, man. I didn't know he played for the Globetrotters. That's news to me. All right. We'll check traffic. Clay, stay on the line.

Sauer Solo, Tony Gwen Jr. on a flight, an unhappy flight, I imagine, from St. Louis to Tampa, Florida. Padres will play the Rays tomorrow. First of the three game series, they'll come back home, fly all the way across the country. And because it's Labor Day, no day off Monday, they'll play Monday. And that'll be their 18th game in 18 days. Series will then get Tuesday off next week. It's kind of weird. It is kind of weird. I don't know even what you call that series against the Tigers. They play Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, next week against the Tigers. I can't even come up with anything. I don't even know what to call that other than a three game series spread over four days. How ironic is it that they have to play on Labor Day? It's very ironic. It's Labor Day. You're supposed to get the day off. It's very ironic. Or you could look at it the other way, Labor Day means you should work, Labor Day. You should be laboring. What is Labor Day? I don't know. The definition of Labor Day. I don't know. I didn't get much feedback on the prohibition. So yeah, we're going to try another silly question. It's a federal holiday celebrated to honor and recognize the American labor movement and the work and contributions of laborers across the country. Thank you very much. Yes. The contributions, they don't have to, here's your day off, Labor. Ferguson Jenkins, by the way, the answer, the winning answer in Christmas, the fans today, was a Hall of Fame pitcher indeed for the Chicago Cubs. Once won 20 games, not once, six years in a row, his greatest season was 1971. I just throw this out there because it just, I shake my head. How could somebody like Ferguson Jenkins do this? But apparently nobody in this day and age can Ferguson Jenkins in 1971 started 39 games. 39. That's one out of every four game, it's just our every game nowadays. It's like 32 or 33. Oh, right. They have a five man rotation. So yeah, 32. They had a four man rotation then he made 39 starts. How many complete games did he add? How about 30? That is crazy. That's one. 30 complete games. If his arm fall off after, of course not, he took it all the way to the Hall of Fame. I guess so. I mean, 30 Jenkins pitched for a long, long time. He got his 250th win in 1980. So that was nine years later. He retired after 1983. He is in the Hall of Fame. He is one of two Canadians to be enshrined in Cooperstown. Don't you know? Don't you know? Don't you know? Is that your? All Canadians are going to be mad at me now. They should be for that. Why? For that. I bet you if you said, I bet you if you told that statue of Canadian, they would say, ah, I think I think all Canadians are going to rail against you for that ridiculous, ridiculous thing. And the Berge Jenkins, the other Canadian in the baseball Hall of Fame, Larry Walker. Oh, I didn't even think about that. Those are the two. So they had one until like last year. A couple of years ago. Yeah, Larry Walker was a second. So yeah. Berge Jenkins was a hell of a pitcher. And I really, I had no idea that he played for the Harlem Globetrotters. So that was a, that was newsworthy to me, Scrabby, played some of his off season with the Trotters, 1967 and 1971, Wilt played for the Trotters, right? Wilt Chamberlain. You knew that. I mean, that's unfair. Wilt. Yeah, that he was playing for the gold trotters. Yes. Wilt could score even if the other team was trying to stop him. Yes. So why, why did he need to play for a team that was allowing him to score? I agree. That's kind of comical. We think about it. Cool. All right. We got a big five coming up next. Don't forget. Okay, Scrabby and I will be out there at the new Buffalo Wild Wings location in Mira Mesa. It's on Reagan Road, 96.90 if you need the address. Show us from two o'clock to 5.30 next Wednesday, September 4th. We're going to be there. You need to be there because we're giving out three pairs of tickets to the Padres Astros game, which will be coming up a couple of weeks later. Buffalo Wild Wings also will be signing people up for 10 lucky people to win. Free wings for a year. Not too shabby. So make sure you're out there next Wednesday at Buffalo Wild Wings, big five. All right, welcome back four thirty sixes to Tom, Chris Ello, Tony Goode Jr. Not off today. He's just flying today. I'll be back with us tomorrow. So we'll only have an hour with you tomorrow. So do not arrive late tomorrow because you'll miss the show. We're only on from two to three. In that time we are scheduled to have Padres new bullpen star Tanner Scott. Yes, not big five coming up shortly. I'm looking at, you know, if we're getting closer now, Scrabby, the mock, I'm looking at a mock draft here. Chris. Hey, let me tell everybody. Chris says that he doesn't believe a mock draft helps him, but he does about a hundred of them before the actual one. I'm looking at one ESPN did their mock draft their number one pick overall and that was Christian McCaffrey. Interestingly, Breeze Hall, number two, Bijon Robinson three, they are which side are you looking at? Because I know ESPN loves Bijon Robinson. Yeah, this is a PPR ESPN 12 team PPR. I'm surprised that Breeze Hall and Bijon Robinson are ahead of CD lamb. So three receiver or three running backs are their first three picks. Then CD lamb is the fourth pick. Then Jonathan Taylor, another running back, followed by Tyree kill. And then in my draft position at number seven, I'm on raw Saint Brown. What's your draft position screen? Nine. I was talking about this with Thomas and Will, Braden seems to get the number one pick. He's had it a couple of times every time. I am not saying there's any fishy stuff going on, but talk to the commissioner. The commission also gets a very nice pick every single time. The commissioner is a friend of yours. He works on this program. He should be able to speak with him though. He scares you as commissioner. Why does he scare you because he rules with an iron fist. You have number nine pick. Well, if you get their number nine pick, you would get Jamar Chase back, but this time you would have to use a number one selection to get him. I don't know that I would do that. Yeah. Second round, you would get here, according to this Travis Etienne Jr. I would get Puka Nakua. Anyway, I'm just looking at that. Let's do a traffic in a big five. It's that time of the show. When we check on the latest in sports, only the most important topics and questions are brought to light. Stop what you're doing and listen. These new stories will astound and amaze you. The only, oh my god, who the hell cash the big five starts now on 97th grade of fan. Oh, the fantasy football talk got people going in the chat a little bit, Chris. Jacob says my jags are going to be elite this year. Mark my words. Who is that? Jacob. Jacob. We meet in week one, just a heads up. So they might be elite in week one because they're going to be playing the dolphins. Don't forget the September version of the dolphins is usually better than the December version. Yeah. So let's see. Right off the bat, we'll find out about your jags. Katrina says Puka was my hot sleeper last year. He was a good sleeper. There was really, he was one of the great sleepers ever. Yeah. Sam, you should have made the playoffs. Yeah, Puka, you got another one and the other ram, Chiron Williams. Chiron Williams. Two really good sleepers last year is returning punts now. Okay. He's not going to make it through the season. Maybe not. All right. Let's get into the big five and we'll start number five here and AJ Casville tweeted this yesterday. We've already kind of talked about it. So now that I'm looking at the actual question, I forgot what we were going to do. We're going to talk about. It's about pro far bunting. So let's just kind of talk about it again. Pro far is ninth inning, but this is what AJ Casville tweeted. Pro far is ninth inning, but moving arrives from second to third raised. The Padres win probability by 1%, but that number does not account for the quality of the hitter at the plate. And pro far is one of the league's best, particularly in high leverage spots. We're going to talk about this again because I think we have new people listening. So Chris, show pro far swung away. Yes. Um, first of all, because it didn't work second, because pro far is one of the better magic hitters in baseball hitting what you say for 40, something late, close situations, seven, I believe, unbelievable, but I will defend Mike Schilt on this point. And that is the pro far is swinging like a rusty gate right now. He's he went over 14 in the series. He hit maybe one or two balls hard. So he's only hitting two 35 since the all star break. Pro far needs to recapture the magic for September to finish off his magic carpet ride of a season. I really think Scravery, what do you think? I really think that he should have swung away too, because you just never know if you what is the old adage in baseball, if you put it in play, you got a chance. Well, the but isn't bad if it's it's almost an automatic out. Well, it is an automatic out. So you're giving up a chance to score the run, but you're increasing your chances with one out to get the run in from third, chrono north, though, struck out. And also look, the cardinal scored in the bottom of the ninth inning. So it's not guaranteed that the Padres would have won the game yesterday, or at least could have been tied, maybe could have been different. Could have should have could have showed what a Padres went, Padres went one for 15 yesterday plus today with RSP, they left 10 runners on yesterday, too many chances that they didn't cash in on. That's why they went 0 and 2 the last two days. I'm going to go with what Pro far said himself after the have you watched me? I see right now. He said, quote, you didn't see my at bats tonight. I was 0 for four, you know, so Pro far has been struggling. He knows it. So all right, hopefully he'll get it back together here this weekend. Yes. But to all the new listeners, the sky is not falling. This guy is not falling. Golden State Warriors star star guard, Stephen Curry has agreed to a one year, 62.6 million dollar extension, his agent, Jeff Austin of Octagon, told Woj today, the agreement keeps Curry under contract with Golden State through the 2026, 27 season, and he will become the third NBA player along with LeBron and KD to pass $500 million in career earnings. I'm at first the Steph deserve to be on the list with LeBron and KD. I guess maybe sort of a biased answer here, but no, because the Warriors won so many titles. And I know that Steph had people on the outside helping him like Clay Thompson and Draymond Green and KD one year, but Steph Curry is one of the best players in basketball. And if he does not play for the Warriors, the Warriors are not going to be a good team. So why did you say no? The question was whether he deserved to be paid. You said no, and then you proceeded to explain why he should be paid. Oh, sorry. I meant. Yes. Thank you for putting that out. As you confused me. Oh no, you go, I'm first and I say no. I say, yes. Because Steph Curry is one of the greatest players in the history of the sport. And I was like, wait a minute, this isn't driving. He, he, yes, he does deserve the money. He does deserve the money. And he is the Warriors right now, Chris. Well, he is the Warriors now. Look, he doesn't deserve that much money for what he's going to do from here on out. But he does deserve the money for what he has done. And so I don't begrudge him that a lot of players are paid for what they've done rather than what they're going to do. Steph Curry is no longer the best guard in the NBA, but he certainly was. And he's still for four championship seasons. Yeah, but 60 million. Come on. That's just like going great now for a superstar basketball player. Yeah, no, Steph Curry deserves whatever. He's, you know, if you put together the all time 12 man team, he's got to be on it because you need on that team, the greatest shooter who ever played. And that would be. And he's him. He's him. He's him. He's him. Number three, the Cleveland Browns have restructured your favorite quarterbacks contract to Sean Watson, a league source told Field Yates of ESPN in a move that creates $35.8 million in salary cap space. Cleveland converted $44.79 of a million of Watson's $46 million 2024 base salary into a signing bonus. The move gives the Browns more than $62 million in cap space, the most in the NFL. I had a question here, but I kind of want to go in a different direction. Should you be able to manipulate contracts like this to create cap space and Chris, you got first? I guess in a perfect world, everybody would just do the right thing, but you've got to have certain rules. Yes. And then no matter what rules you have, somebody's going to try to manipulate them. Yeah. So in this case, you can choose to give the guy for what is it $44 million in a signing bonus? The salary this year is big salary this year is going to be like 1.5 in 44 of it just becomes guaranteed money. Be clear here, though, the owner of the Browns just gave wrote a check for $44 million. Yes, they did. Okay. So if they already did anyway, when they signed him to a fully guaranteed deal in the beginning, well, the brown, what they're doing is they're creating cap space by just moving money around in a spreadsheet column. Yeah. Well, look, there are little, you know, nooks and crannies. That you can take advantage of and no team is aware of this more than yours because your team is playing a paying a quarterback $5 so the rest of their salary cap can be millions and millions more than any other team in the league. But he's not his first deal. This is what quarterbacks do. I know, but that's, but it's, it's not the way it should be like the 49ers, and never mind. No, go for it. I, I'm just trying to say I think what they ought to do eventually is separate the quarterback salary from the, from the team is like to have a very different weight or something. No, just be separate quarterbacks make their money and then the team salary cap is the same for every other team. Okay. So they team with a $30 million quarterback or a team with a $3 quarterback have the same to spend for the rest of their team. I'm not so mad at that. That's what needs to happen. But right now the 49ers are taking advantage of the fact that that is not the case. Well, but you're absolutely right. I mean, the Browns were the dummies that gave him $2 million to be doing it. The Browns aren't the stupidest organization in sports. I don't know who is because anybody that would bring this guy in and alienate from what I can tell about 90% of their original fan base is not very smart. And he hasn't been very good and that tops it all off. He's like his base salary before get before today for this upcoming season, he was getting paid $46 million at night. Not worth it. They made the playoff last year without despite him or without him. They have Joe Flakoe Joe Flakoe, yeah, remember that two, I mean, I seriously know two people and that's just me two people living out here that are Browns fans no longer. And they're like serious about it like they won't root for them. And that's it. I respect you as a person. If you are going to take a stand to the point where you are no longer a fan of the team, I respect that. I don't think they're the only two. I don't think so either, but it would be really hard for me. Say the 49ers brought to Sean Watson in. I know. I would dislike them, but I don't know that I could stop being a fan of that. It's so ingrained. It would be pretty difficult because if to Sean Watson isn't going to be playing, I mean, if he's not going to be playing with the Browns, there's another team that's going to pay him to be there. Probably. Uh, did I already hit number two? Number two. No, I have. No, I got a Patriots head coach. Gerard Mayo has chosen Jacobi Brissette as the team starting quarterback as the veteran held off a late surge from rookie Drake, man, according to the article I read. Well, we have decided or I have decided that Jacobi Brissette will be our starting quarterback this season in saying that as an organization, we are 100% behind Jacobi. There is no, you've got a guy right here. You got a guy right there where 100% behind Jacobi. So I'm up first. How many wins will the Patriots have this year? I personally like Jacobi Brissette. He's not a starting quarterback though. He's not a, he's not a quarterback that's going to win you games on his own. The Patriots are probably going to win four games this year, Chris. They're going to go four and 13 and if they get to four, they're lucky. What do you think? The Patriots became the first team in NFL history to go 16 and 0 in a regular season. Yeah. Why not become the first team in NFL history to go 0 and 17? Wow. Oh, they wouldn't be the first to go winless. The Browns and the Lions in a 17 game season, yes. But I don't see any reason why the Patriots can't go 0 and 17. I, you know, as a dolphin thing, I'm not going to ever look past any game, but you look at their division that should be six easy losses right there to teams that are far superior. Um, yeah, I don't know where the Patriots are going to find a win because if Jacobi Brissette doesn't get it done, Drake May, I don't think is a, obviously not quite yet a good option. I can't think of a running back or a receiver even on their roster. I don't know what they're going to do. I think he's going to regret these comments because at some point throughout the year, they're going to be, oh, they'll be going to Drake. Two in 10. Yeah. And then they're not 100% behind Jacobi anymore. I'm saying the Patriots go winless winless. Owen 17. Yeah. That's a bold prediction. And I love it. I don't hate it at all. It's really hard though. If the Panthers didn't go 0 and 17 last year, they were terrible last year. All right. Let's get to the last number one. So this happened in New York City happened in Manhattan, actually, and the guy's name is Anthony Aquilino, he's a supercar enthusiast, Chris. He got a ticket for excessive noise in his Lamborghini that he owns. The fine is the problem. Wait a minute. Who gave him the ticket? Me? No, because you know how I excessive noise. That's true. You do it. The other day, a motorcycle came whipping by me in traffic and it scared the bejesus. I'm so tired of these people scared the bejesus that you're on your Harley Davidson right now. And somehow you can hear me. Well, some people do listen. Well, if you are on your Harley and you can hear me, slow down and shut the noise down. I'm tired of you people. I'm not tired of you motorcycle people. I like motorcycles, but I am. I understand why some motorcycles are a little too loud. Anyway, the owner of this Lamborghini, who got the $800 fine, says in the fine increases for repeat offenses, he said it's unaffordable and unreasonable and keep in mind he's owning a Lamborghini. So he's saying it's an unaffordable, unreasonable. The problem is he says his car is stock. He does not have any aftermarket or upgrades in his Lamborghini. So this is what came off of the line. He thinks he shouldn't have to pay this fine. Chris, should he have to pay the fine? You should pay 800 this time, 1600 the next time, 2400 after that, and then revoke his license and get him off of our streets. Oh, so you're not throwing this out, you're throwing the book at him. I can't stand excess noise, I really think it's my number one pet peeve. Number one, Harley Davidson's I'm sure come off the line that way. I think they should be outlawed because they make too much noise. And I just lost another 12 motorcycle listeners. Sorry, but I don't hurting our motorcycle listener feelings. I don't like when you make noise just for the hell of it. It drives me nuts. It's not what the hell of it though, they're riding their motorcycle. If you put after, I know what you're talking about, Chris, because there are some cars that are really loud and there are some motorcycles that are really, really, really loud. But this guy owns a Lamborghini. Pay the fine, bro. Pay the fine. And keep paying them. I don't care if your car is stock, you should have known the rules before you drove around Manhattan in your Lamborghini. I mean, here's my, here's my honest, we're toward to this guy. The stock Lamborghini can go 180 miles an hour, doesn't mean you're allowed to go 180 miles an hour. Are you sure? I bought a Lamborghini that can go that fast. So if the stock Lamborghini makes too much noise, sorry, you're not allowed to make that much noise. End of story, get out of my courtroom. You got a motorcycle rider over here, Matt, on the chat. I'm sure. I'm sorry about that. I can't help it. It's my fault for being so hateful, okay, here's what you can do motorcycle people. When you're riding by, don't gun it and go right in my ear, it scared the bejesus out of me. Final hour next, then go to Chris. As a parent, you always want to set your child up for success.
