Now back up, Paul and Joe inside the Veritex Community Bank Studios. For a moment, I thought this might be just a Doris Sanders song. 'Cause it's a fat beat for real, for real. Oh god, no cap, it be bussing. Joe, why you laughing? Sorry you're not hip. You're right, I'm not. Like me. I just made my hacko sideways. Scooter Galant here, Galant in George, ESPN 97.5 and 92.5. How long can I speak like this without you bussing out laughing? I think I'm good now. If I speak with a serious journalist more- Nah, that's making it just weird. Okay. Can you say Colorado? Colorado? Football is- Okay, that's all I need. Under serious scrutiny now. Look, I wonder if we can get like Randy McAvoy to drop that in there. A Colorado bull. Probably not. I think he's too perfect for me. I think he's too perfect for me. Can you find a way? We need Randy to bring me back on Sports Sunday. Right. Nate Griffin is saying that. Well listen, I'm an equal opportunity whore for TV. You don't have to pay me though. Like I'm that. Check that. I'm not even- I'm a slut for TV. You know? Alright, just ask me what and I'll put up my suit. We'll work for free. We'll work for free, always do. But anyway, to bring it back to this. We're appreciating where the Texans are. Yesterday, some people were getting frustrated with me saying, hey, they were lucky to win on Sunday. It was a good win. They were lucky that they were playing against a team like the Indianapolis Colts. A team like Colorado is a lot like a team like the Jets, like the Browns. The difference is that Colorado has brought so much more scrutiny on themselves because instead of saying, you know what, let's shut up after last year and the way that it went down, they kept doing the same old, same old. So they lose to Nebraska on Saturday. Everyone saw that coming. I don't know who picked Colorado if you did you crazy. After the game, there's a lot of interesting storylines that have nothing to do with football. And one of them was that Colorado football is apparently playing Shador Sanders song whenever he specifically scores a touchdown instead of the Colorado buffaloes fight song. This song, bookie.ag is the best place for all of your gambling desires that anything, anytime, anywhere, only with my bookie.ag use promo code, bet nine, seven, five.

When you get the chance to go big, take it. Go for dose this season with Doseckeys. We're ready for some football, baby. Tackling the biggest news in the NFL. This is Justin. With Paul Galante and Joe George, the 10-minute rail starts now. Football time. What do you think is going to happen right now, boys? You know. What's that we're going to do? Look, I mean, you can't abandon the run, Adam, because you don't want to get a slow throw at every single time against this pass. Right. Right. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. See, see, maybe you should get rid of me. I don't, I don't want to be here. I'm going. That was terrible, fellas. I caused that. That's over here. For some. Well, yeah, I shouldn't be here, man. This was a mistake for you guys and for the Jets. That's Adam Sandler, Jets fan, on the Manning cast watching Aaron Rodgers throw an interception. Adam Sandler's from New Hampshire, traitor to the realm. Yeah, I guess so I guess you deserve that. He deserved that to happen to him. Is that kind of like No Man's Land? Almost like, is there a mix of Patriots fans and Jets fans? It shouldn't be. It shouldn't be. No, New Hampshire is basically New England's Alabama, but firmly a Boston sports territory. Okay. Firmly. And they have no, they have no say. I know that we fought the English so that we, of course, you know, wouldn't be ruled by the English. But the, but the city of Boston rules over the great region of New England and everyone should be a Patriots fan. And if you're not Connecticut, what does that mean? Connecticut is the most bold leap state in New England because they're part of New England and they want to be part of both. And a lot of people in Connecticut have like claimed Giants fandom and Jets fandom. And they deserve everything that happens to them. Connecticut is the disputed land between Boston and New York, it's part of, it's part of New England. It's a pretty, I just mean as a fan base. You couldn't afford to live in New York City. Okay. You couldn't afford it. That's why they're ganking. So don't root for the teams that are in New Jersey. It's like two states over. Anyway, I reveled in last night's absolute food, same old Jets performance, Nathaniel Hackett. He's getting canned. He's getting canned, Aaron Rodgers with documentary coming out. I even watched a little bit of the Jake Asmon show. I did. Oh, it brought a tear to my eye to see the misery of Jets fans. It's your joy. Being something. Wait, did I say? What did I say? Tear to my eye? It's a tear to my eye. Oh, yeah. A tear of joy to my eye. Yeah. It did bring a tear of joy to my eye. I loved it. I loved every second of it. It's so funny. Jake once told me that when we were going to Vegas for a trip, when this was during the days of Vanessa and Galani said, "You just can't envision a world where the Patriots aren't better than the Jets." And guess what? The Patriots still better than the Jets, maybe. What did I do? What a loser franchise. They really aren't loser franchise. And I love it. I love it. Like, I love as bad as things are for the Patriots right now. Still worse than the Jets. Still worse? Yeah, I was talking for Aaron last night. Yeah, I didn't look good. I saw it. Zu were like, Aaron Rodgers is back. I'm like, what? No. He watched football game last night. There was one driveway look back, and it was because he was throwing at the Carrot Wilson every single play. The first touchdown drive that they had was just Carrot Wilson pull. The 49ers looked really good. They did that without Christian McCaffrey. 32-19 they win. Jordan Mason steps in for Christian McCaffrey, who is a scratch, a minute, an hour and a half before the game, and he runs 28 times for 147 yards and a touchdown. After the game, he catches up with ESPN's Lisa Salters, and he may have gotten in trouble for this. The way we'll go from here. What did you find out that you were going to be starting? When I found out, maybe Friday, Friday night, you know, something like that. I was always prepared. I mean, we went through training camp. You know, I was RB one at training camp, so, you know, just been preparing from there and just, you know. I'm sure that. RB one. He said it. He said it, Paul, an NFL player said it. He did say it. Hurts your argument a little bit, I think. But look, if you're told this on Friday, is he officially told he was the starter Kyle Shanahan pushed back on this and between that interview with Lisa Salters and his post-game interview, I think that he got spoken to by somebody in the 49ers organization. Here is Jordan Wilson at the post-game podium. I keep on thinking, it is Jeff Wilson, Jordan Mason, today's begin with Jay. What? What do you want? What do you want? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Okay. Jordan Mason afterwards at the press conference podium. When did you find out that you'd be starting lineup? The question right there is why I'm at. That's why I don't really talk in the media because you say one thing wrong and then you know, I don't know. Just skip that question. I'm really confused. He must have got yelled at by the PR staff. I don't know if he got yelled at, but he probably was told, "Hey, man, we might face a find for that." But what's he supposed to do? If they asked him a question and he answered it honestly, and it's ridiculous that people are mad about this to the point where it actually is a story. Like, "Yeah, McCaffrey got scratched an hour and a half before the game. He's everyone's favorite fantasy football running back. Life sucks sometimes." It's not the 49ers fault. They don't have to tell everybody that, and honestly, I feel like teams should be allowed to keep things behind the fog of war. Did they tell Jordan Wilson that McCaffrey was going to be out? No. They told him he was going to have a bigger role. And people are like, "This is the Smoky Gun. The 49ers should be punished because my fantasy team lost because he didn't have any options on the bench to start instead of Christian McCaffrey, even though he was listed as questionable for the entirety of last week. Yeah, I don't feel bad for him because he's clearly got talked to in a way that he is annoyed. Yeah. And upset. So I feel bad for him. Yeah. Shame on caution. Like, honestly, yeah, the PR staff, if this is going to be a problem, you know that the question, that's a very obvious question. Yeah. When did you know you were going to play? I think that's kind of standard, like Justin Herbert was probably asked that the day that they stabbed Tyra Taylor in the lungs with a shot with a needle. Justin, when did you learn you're going to play? I don't know. Five minutes before the game started after the point. That's a very standard question. So like these guys who are not as PR trained, you got to help them out a little bit. Yeah. And Jordan Mason has to deal with these questions, Paul Goliath can't even learn his name. He's confusing him with a running back who's rushed over 600 yards once in his career. I mean, to be fair, he was on the 49ers in the last season was 2022. Is he on the dolphins now? Yeah. He's been on the dolphins for three years. Yeah. Three years down. All right. This is this is the third year. Okay. So two two years or not two years. He barely he barely ever played a sip of the hat and an apology to Jordan Wilson. I did it again. How the most Jordan will or Jeff Wilson the most Jeff Wilson ever played for the Niners was 12 games in 2020. I can't believe I can't believe I can't believe it's he's trying to apologize. You didn't. I can't. That wasn't even a bit that's just me having a small brain. Tyree kills speaking of the Miami dolphins, Tyree Wilson, stop that up to his agent Drew Rosenhouse has called for firings in the Miami police department on a appearance of the Dan Levittard show. He said, quote, for me personally, I believe the police officers that did that to Tyree shouldn't be in the position. They should be let go. Look at the guy who kicked him. That guy should be fired. That's out of control. The guy that jumped in and put him in a chokehold. There's no place for police officers to have a badge that operates like that. When Tyree wasn't being aggressive or violent or fighting back in any capacity, it was horrendous how they treated him. They didn't treat him like a human being. I do think it was excessive by the cops. I also think that Tyree kill was probably driving like a mad man. I mean, 60 miles per hour, 30 mile per hour zone outside of a stadium. Supposedly there was weaving going on. I think there actually is video of that. He did act a little bit entitled when it all happened. Our total thoughts on that in the first hour of the Galant and George podcast, which you can get on Apple and on Spotify, but that's the latest through Rosenhouse's calling for firing. Hang on. I missed the kick. I missed the kick as well. I guess I got to watch it back again. Yeah, I sure. He's a Pruder analysis. The Bejesus. Yeah. Was there like a when they kind of sat him down on the curb because they had him laid down when they handcuffed him and they stood him back up on the curb? I think maybe a kick happened to get him back sitting down when Clay's Campbell joined the party. I forgot. The attorneys of the Reyes law firm representing the Miami-Dade Police Department officer via statement said that they want him to be immediately reinstated. They believe that the decision to place their client on administrative duties were premature though they fully support the Miami-Dade Police Department. So both lawyers are doing the lawyer stuff. Yeah. We're in law. Let me guess. We're representing Tyree Kill. I know his age is not a lawyer, but still he's basically doing PR for Tyree Kill. Says the cops should be fired. The cops attorney says they shouldn't even be on administrative leave. This is always where like the stories where I'm like, all right, well, now I'm over it. Yeah. Once we start getting all the lawyer back and forth, I'm like, man, I think I'm. Unless it's going to be funny like Scotty Scheffler's story when the video comes out for the Scotty Scheffler stuff and it's funny. I wonder if there's an $80 pants that got messed up. I don't know. Maybe what that officer with black sleeves. Maybe he maybe ripped a hole in his shirt. As one does. As one does. Does happen. Anyway, that is. Officer Wilson. That is our 10 minute drill on Tuesday, September 10th, 2024. Up next, we're going to do a quick draft in honor of the late James Earl Jones, but first Joe's going to tell you about Oh, athletic.

The most I'd ever weighed when I started this journey about six months ago at this point, and I'm down.
