Card has no cash access and expires in six months. - Here we go, it is our number one of the G Bag Nation 105-3, the fan hope you're having a fantastic day, general at your service, at ease. - There's Brian Broadus, former cowboy scout, and I feel like executive Lucius Alexander's in the Pimp Cup, Wulchuck and Chia Follow are rocking a house, and I believe Lucius is coordinating your video as well. Okay, you're at 75 and 50, he'll go flawless. No matter how many broadcast responsibilities you add to his plate, including the G Bag of the day, which is coming up now in 30 minutes. Okay, the Big Tenet SEC are eyeing a schedule partnership. That's pretty cool. - Here we go. - These pre-season matchups going probably. - Yeah, we've seen this happen initially. We had Alabama travel to Madison. - There we go. - For that game. - That was Wisconsin, yeah. - And then there was one, there was one other before that. Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta. What do we see? We saw Texas, and we saw Texas' Michigan play. So yeah, there we go. - And the Giants hired, I guess this must be Buster Posey to be their new president of baseball operations. So those are a couple of the headlines that are kind of percolating out here, breaking into the news cycle. Of course, we got five hours to cover all these, including a proper round trip or coming up at six o'clock, we'll go around the bases. But updates on Tank and Micah from Frisco. Both are in boots and using scooters, those little wheelie carts to get around the locker room. So no doubt the medical staff has asked them to, take as much pressure off those joints as possible. Tank's multi-week and Micah's week-to-week is the way I understand it, Brian. - Yeah, let me try and throw you a timeline here. You're probably looking at Micah after the buy, and then you're gonna look in for Tank. They really, they're just gonna take the next two weeks, and they probably won't know. The Archer's reporting, it's a Liz Frank injury, which is in the foot. And I asked-- - That sucks. - Second time, too. - I thought it was gonna be a four-game thing, and the people over there said, "We'll see how it goes, but four weeks is way optimistic." So I guess this is probably six weeks for this guy. - Yeah, Liz Frank, that can be seasoned ending, can't it? - Yeah, I don't know the severity. I mean, like I said, I knew when I saw, when I was watching the film, actually when I first saw it happen, I'm thinking he sprained his foot. I was thinking midfoot sprained the way his foot hit the ground, and then they start taping the bottom of his foot, and I said, "Oh man, this is far more severe than that." So-- - Had your scouting glasses on him. - Well, I just had seen it with him before. He has a second time he's had this happen. - He's had a problem with his foot, like he's rushing, and his foot, it almost like just jams into the ground. - Like his toes jam into the ground first. - Yeah, just everything goes into the ground, and you could tell-- - The lake still tries to move while the foot's stationary. - It's crazy, yeah. So, yeah, it's not good, but Micah's probably looking at after the buy, so that'd be a couple of games, and then the buy, and then Kansas City, and then you kind of navigate it. I've been trying to get with my gang of seven. I've got a list of three guys. - Kansas City. - What's that? - I'm sorry. - You said Kansas City. - I said Kansas City? - Yeah, I wasn't sure if you meant San Francisco, perhaps. I don't know, I think you said Kansas City-- - I thought San Francisco is when he was playing, right? - Okay, San Francisco. - After the buy here. - After the buy here. - Yeah. - 'Cause it's Steelers, then Lions, and then Buy. - Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry if I said that. - Well, this is tough for a run defense that's already struggling to go without Demarcus Lawrence. The only good news here is you're going up against a fairly pathetic offense and the Steelers, but they did score 24 points and defeat to the Colts. So, you know, that's gonna be an interesting matchup. We'll have more analysis of that throughout the week, of course, every Wednesday in Krusty's corner. He takes a look at the defense for you than the offense on Thursday. So, Brian's Krusty's corner is a must tune in. Most days at 3.40, although today at 3.40, Dave Raymond's gonna join us to detail his perspective on the Rangers final week of the season. And we've moved the corner over there to 4.40. Double Monday night football tonight, Dolphins host the Titans. I don't know if that one is that interesting, other than for the fans of those two teams, as you're tracking progress for guys and rooting on your dudes or whatever. But the 2-in-1 Lions hosting the perfect 3-in-0 Seahawks is definitely tuned in a bowl, isn't it? - Yeah. - Oh my gosh, absolutely. - I remember they played last year beginning of the season in Detroit, Seattle, and then won that football game. So, this is, I mean, this could be an early preview of maybe two division winners, possibly, we'll see. - Yeah, yeah, how good are those Lions? Of course, you got them in a couple of weeks and are the Seahawks for real out there in the West? Salute to everybody who joined us for Flagtober's tour day, DFW on Saturday. Thanks to you guys for doing the early stop so I could take care of my stuff. The next stop is Southern Leisure, Spaz and Patio on Friday in Flower Mound. We'll be out there two to seven. I don't know how many flags we're gonna have after Friday's show. So, please do come and get them the iconic brand of Whataburger co-branded with the G-Bag Nation there in a one-off flag that you can pick up for as long as they last. - Yeah, man, that was awesome getting out too. I was in Denton, so it was nice to be back. - I was very close to saying after the Carrollton stop, which was awesome to see everybody that came out to just, I'm just gonna drive over to Denton. - Yeah, yeah, I don't blame you. You coulda hit Fright Street with me and my daughter. - I want him too. Maybe I should just brought the baby. She got sick though, I got the baby sick, so I couldn't really pull that one off. - Ooh, that's tough. - I felt like a jerk, man. It's the first time she's been sick. Anytime you see a kid sad, sick, it kinda hurts you, but if you did it on top of that, I can't imagine that kind of Denton. - Yeah, my fault, my fault. It's been awful. - The text continues their naming of famous sports fingers from the Crosstalk with KMC. The name of finger out of a 2-1-4, that's iconic as he's running off into the tunnel with the finger up in the air. - Oh, the number one up, yeah. - Yeah, that's cool. I think, you know, Jordan, when he was counting off the championships, I don't know if, you know, we counted to five or four, whatever that was, where he's doing it, and then Kobe did one like that as well. - How about Babe Ruth pointing to center field against the Cubs? - Did he point with his bat? - Was it bad his finger? - I don't know, it's a legend. I don't think there's actual-- - Did I do that? - No, it's a finger. - It's a finger. - He's holding bat in left hand, and then right fingers is pointed out. - Oh, geez, I got that right. - So there is a picture of that? - Yeah. - Yeah, there is a picture of that. - Jordan does not trust me at all. - I mean, unless that's like a fake picture, I'd be a drawing, might be a drawing. - Well, they all seem to be pointing at the wall. - You just get balls acting as well. - It's Babe Ruth, Babe Ruth, Babe Ruth, Babe Ruth. - They're all finger points. - Babe Ruth, they're all finger points. - Yeah, I knew it, I should have trusted him. I mean, his memory on what happened eight years ago is a little faulty, but if you go back 80 years, man, this trustee is dialed. - I could dial it up every once in a while, but yeah, I thought it was a finger point. - Yeah, it was. The black and gold bee out there, the two one four saw him at Fort Worth, maybe Cleburne, Whataburger. Maybe Grand Prairie or Mansfield, I don't know. But he says the finger that got to Freddie in the iconic movie, Freddie got fingered. Fun fact, there was never actually a fingering. He made that up to get back at his dad, who was mad at him for being a 28 year old without a good job, you know? So he was like, oh, you wanna play like that dad? Well, guess what? I'm gonna accuse you of that very heinous act. Freddie was a bit of a ball sack for himself. - Yes, it turns out. - He was. Well, Freddie was the brother. Freddie was. - Oh, excuse me. The main character, Tom Green, was a gourd. - Man, I found a list of the top 10 gnarliest sports fingers, and some of these pictures are grotesque. - Wow. - Wow. - The mangos and helmets and stuff. - Yeah, quite a lot of basketball players on here as well. - Ooh, Cotton and Rem. - Like Sean Marians, I didn't realize his pinky is the opposite direction. - Not the matrix. - Ball matrix. - Yeah. - Oh, no. - Is that why his shot was so funny? - That's why they named a matrix, actually. It was doing the Neo. - Yeah. - Dropping and going to the side. - Well, let's say, is Matumbo, does he- - Well, he can have an early one. - Right, right. - You know, this is like injured. They're all- - The most banged up fingers. - This figured. - Yeah. - Okay, most impactful thing you guys saw this NFL weekend, what stuck in your brain like, ooh, there's something relevant for the Cowboys, or wow, that was pretty amazing. - What losers the Browns are when they get down in the red zone and I need them not to cost me a bet pay. You guys are in a well-paying right now with these two just jumped on board with the Cowboys. - That's the world of sleep. - That's probably the biggest takeaway for sure. I mean, it's just how, once again, we're reminded. - It's crazy how these games are coming off, though. It really, really is. I mean, that- - Just stupid. - Yeah, just you think you have an idea and you really, really don't. - I mean, Jetsburg goes might've been the ugliest game of the entire season so far. - That's what was so frustrating for me was, I was having to keep tabs on one of the single worst football games that was ever played. - They nearly set the record for least combined points at halftime. - It was just, and least combined yards, maybe it was? - Yeah, well, it had to be because, I mean, Bo Nix had minus seven passing yards in the first half. - Well, he had the seven, seven to completions for minus seven. - Yeah, he was like seven for 15 for minus seven. - Yeah, there were five brutal stats on Bo Nix. I mean, it was just, it was just disgusting. What did he put out there? He had a 48% completion percentage. That's the worst in a game this year. - So we got a triple payoff coming Friday again. - Yeah, we do. - We do. - Yeah, triple a quadruple then a two. - My, I was also growing back though, I can feel him. - Yeah, I can see him good. - Five o'clock shadow coming up. - Handsome. - You know what? I'd like to go on record here on a Monday and give Zach Wolchuck some credit for the commanders. - Oh, thank you. - Oh, thank you. - Commanders. - Pop up here. - Commanders. And that's a commander team that's playing a schedule that they can completely navigate. - Yeah, they got a favorable schedule. They can navigate that thing. - They look for real. And I think you'd have to say that's the favorite in the division by a significant margin. - For the first month of the season, yeah. - Yeah, I mean today, commanders play Cowboys. I don't care where that game is, I'm picking the commanders. And if they're playing the Eagles, same thing. - I'll tell you what the Eagles were not. - But the defense is still not good. - No. - The defense is still going to be a big problem for them ultimately. But winning this division seems very, very light. - They don't punt. - Yeah. - No, I mean, they had 16 straight scoring drives. It was unbelievable. - I'll tell you another thing is the Eagles can't play and that thing was 101 here on the field. - I know they're missing all their dudes. I mean, quite a few their dudes, but everybody's missing dudes. - I think they have this stat, right? But it was like Jalen Hertz had eight turnovers the year they went to the Super Bowl the entire season. Since then, we're talking a year in four games. He's got 23. - He had more fumbles, he has more fumbles than touchdowns. It's not just the picks. He's been a turnover machine. - Yes. - Yeah, he's got a turnover in every game, nine straight games with a turnover, three turnovers in the red zone this season, 27 turnover since the start of last season. He's the most turnover-prone quarterback in the sport over the last since the start of last season. - Since Daniel Jones showed up. - You could really see this coming with Philadelphia, but with Daniels in Washington, this looks like much more than a young guy who can run. They keep the defense off. - Oh, he can throw it. - And this is a real deal. - Yeah. - He can throw it. - And he's poised, you know? You look around and to me, so there was a time in the NFL where you waited for quarterbacks to develop. But with all the seven on seven and the quarterback gurus that happened, if you show up and are pinging down your leg even four weeks in, we're seeing the truth about Caleb Williams and we're seeing the truth about Daniels right now. There's no doubt this guy is the reason. There are some situations where you step into an offense that is so blessed and you got it on easy mode and you can fool people, you know? I believe like the Eagles did. I tried to truth that I told you the whole way through back's better. Ran into a couple of people there on the tour at ADFW. He said, "Oh, there's the Dacator." I'm like, "No, I'm not a Dacator and objective," right? - Do they really call you a Dacator to your face? - Yeah, one guy did. - All right, I appreciate that guy. Way to step up. - And I was like, "Well, I'm not a Dacator." You know, I told-- - Oh, you're not? - I told you a long time. I told you-- - But you didn't say I know you are, but what am I? - I'm doing objective journalism on this guy. I told you the whole time he's better than Jalen hurts. He was told the whole time he's better than Carson Wetz. You know, I say the only thing that gets people caught up is when I say you're going to need a good running game if you want to win the Super Bowl with Dac. Dac is not good enough to carry a flawed defense and flawed running game, and Dac fans are so triggered. They're like, "Oh, you're a Hater." I'm just pointing out the truth. You know, and I don't think anybody can. - Right, the Cowboys do? - Yeah, you saying that is the indictment on the franchise? - Yes. - It's the indictment on the organization that they can't give them anything. Pat Mahomes has an awesome defense. Pat Mahomes at times has unbelievable skill positions or whatever. Now Mahomes is on a different planet than everybody, but still just to give you that. - I'm glad you brought that up because this was one thing that I was sitting there watching the end of that Chief's Chargers game. Is it possible that the Chiefs have the two most clutch players on both sides of the football with Chris Jones and Patrick Mahomes? - He comes up with big ones on father's drives. - Chris Jones is a closer. That dude steps up and is just making game-winning plays all the damn time for them. And then Patrick Mahomes and that offense can look like trash, but he needs to play. He needs to scramble for a first down on third and eight. Mahomes will find a way to get it done. - No doubt. - We have Rangers concluding the season with three straight wins. The proper round trippers coming up at six at four o'clock. Texas Rangers keep 'em or take 'em to a no-kill shelter. How about that? - Yeah, I like it. - Keep 'em or take 'em to a no-kill shelter shelter. - I like what you're doing there, man. It's a notification in America, if you ask me. - We will not be playing the dog sound. All the people who emailed our boss, you win, congratulations. You're so offended by the made up audio of a rabid dog having to be put down that we will no longer be playing it. - Thanks, Kirk Herb Street. - And I hope you don't watch any movies where humans or animals are hurt or TV shows, okay? You've drawn a line in the sand, okay? - And you're missing out, okay. - And you've made it clear you're too sensitive for that kind of contact. - There's no contact shelf over there, okay? - No secretariat. - Pete is coming after you. - They gotta put the horse down, okay? None of that, no seabiscuit, sorry. - No dramatic reenactments of, you know, tragic losses of life. And we'll do our part, you do yours. - Yeah. - Seen from my, I'm legend haunts me to this day. - Dallas Mavericks Media Day, Jason Kidd, talking championship. I'm not sure if they can match up with Boston just yet, guys. I would like to believe, but as long as Drew Holiday is over there and this Boston team, they don't even need poor singers. You know, we saw that in the final. - Yeah, right. - But Luca walked in looking fit or, you know, fit to his standards for sure. Luca's good to go. What do you think he was? Does this feel like just not eating as much or does this feel like a dedication in the weight room? - I think anything has a lot to do with it. - I need to take a look at these. - Yeah, I think this is good. This is good diet and cardio. Look, this is not a three hours in the gym getting shredded, trying to get below four percent body fat. - Okay. Yeah, I'm saying, so this could be just a hell of a hurry to look good in the media day pictures. - Less, less. - This could have been a crash course, 10 day. Hey, let's gear up for media day. We'll get a fresh cut, we'll get that jawline going and then we'll get back to business. - Less beer and pizza. - Back to being nice. - Yeah, I could see that. Yeah, absolutely. And I support that. If that's the way Luca's going, you know, and we'll see. 'Cause, you know, I think he's seen now, I can't cruise and be distracted and win an MVP. If I'm gonna win this MVP, I assume it's on his bucket list. You know, you're gonna have to get out there and crush and make a good impression the entire way.

Let's do some NFL true or fart with overreactions. From NFL week four, take it away, Robert Flores. All right, we've moved to the red zone as far as the running back conversation goes here on this sports center fantasy draft special. True or fart, false. March on Lynch matches last year's production. - All right, we start in the NFC East in Brian Brodice. Thank you for giving me some credit for this. I did not necessarily want to be right about it, but at least through four games. It's not looking like a bad prediction. True or fart, the commanders are indeed going to win the NFC East. - I'm going to say it's fart. I'm going to say it's fart. I think that things are going pretty well for them right now. The quarterbacks playing extremely well. Their defense is still a little bit suspect, I believe. And I think some people, now their schedule is great for them and that will help. So I think it's going to be a race though at the end. I don't trust Philadelphia, but we'll see what Dallas is able to do in this thing. So I'm going to say it's fart on that. - Bart for Brian, Gavin Dawson. - Uh, that is the truth. Well, Chuck, as Brian says, the schedule is very soft and it's very doable. I mean, they even get a chance to go beat up on New Orleans, December 15th, who's super mid apparently. - Who makes your center? - Okay, I'm going to hold on to that. They lost their center. All right, different team now, different team. - Oh, man, that game was incredible yesterday. - Yeah, well, it's amazing. Look, it's my goodness, man. - Yeah, well, Chuck, I am going to go ahead and I'm going to fart on that as well. I am just going to take the field that is Cowboys and Eagles. I do think defenses will start to catch up to some extent to what it is the rookie quarterback and Cliff Kingsbury are doing. Their defense is bad now. If they do win it, I mean, this might be a division that you can win at eight or nine wins based on the way the Cowboys and the Eagles have looked at this point. I will still take the Eagles right now. You mentioned Broadus, the amount of injuries they're dealing with right now. It would be tough. Bobby mentioned it this morning. Like, put it into context. You don't have CDLAM or branding cooks in a game. Let's just start there with AJ Brown and with Devontae Smith out. You expecting the Cowboys to win that one? - And you're here. - Probably not, and Lane Johnson, right? - Lane Johnson, yeah. - So one of your best offensive linemen out of that game, you're probably losing on the road. So I still think the Eagles or the Cowboys figure out a way, but so all far. - Yeah, I mean, I'm going true on that one. It's because I don't believe in the Cowboys or the Eagles right now. - Well, you have to go true because you predicted that. - I predicted it. - You predicted it. - All right, let's go to you, Mr. Eric Chiafalo. This is the last season Jalen Herds will be the starting quarterback and filthy. - I absolutely think it's on the table because Sirioni's for sure gone. I would need to look at the contract and see what type of outs they have, but we know that how we and these guys are quick to move on. They're not really, if they got to eat a bunch of dead cap for whatever reason, they're down to do it. So I need to look at the contract specifics, but without that, well, Chuck, I think it's absolutely on the table, everything's on the table in Philadelphia. I mean, if Jalen Herds, if they could find a way to to trade him at the deadline, it wouldn't even, I wouldn't even rule it out just because of how crazy things and how hot it gets over there. - Okay, so it says the potential out isn't until after the 2027 season, I'm looking at spoke track. Is this an accurate source of contract information? - I think over the cap is usually better, but yes, spoke track and I think they're usually good when it comes to the outs on the contract. - They have dead cap going into next year at $107 million than 52, then 20. - Goodness gracious. - They have pushed just an enormous amount of it back and the base salaries are only like one and a half million bucks. So yes, but I think she's on to something. You know, if they're sitting there in a draft spot and the quarterback is on the board that they could take, you know, maybe one makes it until the middle of the first round or the 20s that they like, I could see them doing that for sure because of what they did with the Hertz and Carson Wentz. But I would bet on not. - I'm saying fart. - Saying fart on that? - Yeah, absolutely. - I'd probably lean fart, probably because of everything you just said, yeah, and like that contract might be too tough to get on and on and I think that they just probably fire Siriani and then give Hertz one more year. - Bring it in a different guy. - That could be totally different in a couple of years. All right. - That looks glorious actually for the Cowboys though. - It does. - Trying to compete like that's gonna be tough. - Well speaking about Siriani and kind of how weird this debacle is going, Gavin. Doug Peterson, not Nick Siriani, is going to be the first coach fired as the Jags have now fallen to 0 and 4. - Yeah, and who was it over the weekend? Houston the got him, you know, divisional, that one hurts even more. I would have to say yes. You know, what happens is when you're building expectations, it sets up for you to make a tremendous fall as a head coach and it's one of the tough things about stepping in there and having success as they want it to be a little bit better, a little bit better. And then if it's not, the morale just gets sucked right out of the entire building and the frustrations, the finger-pointing sores. And you know that he's not the best guy at working the halls and politicking 'cause if he was, he wouldn't have won a Super Bowl with Philadelphia and been fired 24 months later. - That's a good point. I know this one's tough for you, Brian. - Oh no, it's not tough. He's been doing terrible, you know? I mean, and he, and I was watching his press conference from yesterday, is he, he's not calling plays anymore? - No, they asked him about it. Like, do you think you should take over play calling? He's like, well, why would I do that? I thought he called the game well. - Press Taylor as you see there. And I-- - And he gave it up last year when they were struggling. - And they asked him, and he said, "It's all on the table now." So I-- - We said as coaches, we can't go out there and make the plays, right? - Yeah, he wanted to throw his quarterback under the bus and he didn't do it. - It was also awkward 'cause the-- - I think he did it. - You think he did it. - Followed up on the, on the table. - Well, I mean, he didn't specifically-- - Just the whole, but just the team. - He didn't say the names. - He didn't say the names. - But after the all on the table, a reporter goes like including your job status and he says, "Well, that's a weird question." And he looked like he was-- - No, it's not. - He was about to go full floor there. - Oh, no. - Yeah. It was an uncomfortable question, Doug. It was very awkward. - Great question, though. - It was very, very awkward. All right, last one, back to you Eric. Sam Darnold is actually gonna end up being the Ling MVP. - I still just can't, I can't go that far with it. I do think that they're, I mean, he's playing fantastic football right now, but I will take the field in terms of sustaining a full season of ripping that thing around like a beast. I don't think that'll be him, far. - Yeah, take the field, you know, too many good players out there and Darnold has a long history of being pretty average. So my bet would be this is one of the best months of his career. - Yeah. - And now he's gonna regress to something better than what we saw with the Jets or if he played with the 49ers last year when Purdy was hurt. But no, I'm still gonna believe that overall he's significantly worse than this incredible run that he's on. - Fart. - Yeah, Fart on that as well. - Thank you, Walchuck. - Thank you. - NFL Tour Fart most Mondays here at 220. Then we get into the G bag of the day, into the Pimp Cup. Here's Lucy. (upbeat music) ♪ Hear, listen, listen ♪ (laughing) - What's up, dude? - What's up, Pam? All right, well we last left off. It was a church clip that won. Yup, this would be day three for it if it wins. Today we have an uncle that crashed out during the funeral. I think that laying down his beloved mother, he's tired of all the gossiping and everything going on. I guess the group chats, somebody showed him a group chat. - I don't know what they said about your uk, Pam. - Ooh, how cheap. - They said you didn't trip in on the funeral. - Yeah, whatever it could be. - We only talked about it about people in person. - Yeah. Hey, this is your church clip, so I prayed you got a blessing in everything yesterday. I do shout out to my pastor, Reverend Dr. Pastor, Freddie Haynes, I see them out there at the Fair on Saturday. - Nice. - I seen you out there, Pastor. - Always fun to run into somebody you know out there. - Yeah, I seen you out there, Pastor. - All right, crashed out. - You know that, y'all know me. You ain't like, you ain't never met me before. You know that, you know I'm at his hand right now, right there. - Yeah, you're mad, yeah. - I'm sorry, I hope I hope that you don't get me later off of saying that, Lord. I'ma get you, I'ma get you. Because I want y'all to know I'ma take these glasses off so you can see my eyes and know I'm not playing. - Sounds like a mic, that's good. - I talked to my mom daily. - Yeah. - And listen to me clear. - Uh-huh. - I heard everything everybody said about me from not rushing down here. Listen to me, man. You gotta power me, meet me in the parking lot right now. I ain't playing, but listen, listen, I'm not that mad like that. I'm just letting you know you can see me in the parking lot. All my brothers is here, I got VJ up there. I got Drake, everybody. I got my boy Crack off of PZ here. I tell them to stay in the house, meet me in the parking lot. If you got a problem with me, man, whoever it is. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. I'm not mad like that, I'm just saying. Hold on, I'm not, I've been waiting to say this, man. - Hold on, spool, let that man cook. - I've been waiting to say this. - Yeah, hold on, I've been waiting to say this. - I've been holding on to this part, right? - It's up a chest. (laughing) - All right, look at the vibes. On a Monday, yeah. Little white zombie coming at ya. (growling) What else we got here? I'm gonna just go down the order. Texas Rangers inside of Jared Sandler had himself an injury update. Shout out to Tolo McElroy's. Tolo wouldn't have caught this one for me. - We check in with Jared Sandler. - Guys, our final Baylion-Galleyan injury update of the season. It's more of a general idea of health. Paul Goldschmidt wants to keep playing. He feels like he's healthy enough to do so, but the Cardinals are expected to part ways with Goldschmidt. Goldschmidt would make him a free agent this off season. - All right, bouncing ball here off Lowe's band. - All right, all right, thank you, Jared. - Oh, no, he had to have been so nervous in that moment. - Oh, man, I think he's, yeah. - There's no delay on the Rangers game, is there? - No, sir, it's butt naked. - You're not too affiliated, that's kind of on them. - He handled that well, though. I feel like he didn't-- - Wow, I don't know, that's mighty unprofessional of Jared. That's a pattern of behavior now at this point. I might call the FCC on him. - She's got to do so, but the Cardinals are expected to part ways with Goldschmidt, which would make him a free agent. - Loose cannon, they never know what he's going to say. - Dude, if you could, if we'd had the science and you could get your goal to turn in, or your ass to turn in to gold, there would be people that would spend ridiculous amounts of money to do that. - Yeah, absolutely. - It's honestly, it feels like it might be a groundbreaking idea from Jared here if we can get the right people in line. - Science, huh? - Science, man. - I think it was like 200K, you could make your own diamond making machine. You know, they got lab-grown diamonds now, and they flying everything, VVS, or they all look good at everything. You can make your own 200K, you want to invest? - The men, let's get it cracking. - That's not a good idea, I know a guy. - There's too much diamonds out of here. Let's see, all right. Going to the NFL on Fox, the crew was pranking Gronk. Did you guys see this? - Yeah. - They pranked Gronk. - So good. - Yeah, Gronk was going with it. They had them believe it, and there was a new cowboy's tight end named Rich Russo. - So they were talking about Tony Gonzalez, they talking about Gronk, I don't think he's Gronk. - Gronk, where do you list Russo as like among the Titans playing today, at least? - You know, he's been out for a little bit, so he might be a little rusty coming back, but I think they're going to give him the opportunities. That's for sure. But also they got Ferguson as well, they're going to be a one-two combo. Here's the thing, Ferguson has been the guy because only because Russo has been hurt. You got to admit, with Russo coming back, it just changes their offense. - Yeah, but Ferguson has been showing that he's the guy right now. They're going to still feed Ferguson. - He's the only guy in the league that has two fingers missing on his right hand. That's why he's been out, and he's back now. - So is that going to affect him when he's catching a pass? - I don't know if you tell him. - I still have all five of my fingers. - But you know what? - No, you're the kind of that. - I can't. - I'll tell him my fingers. - All five on each hand, all right, all five on each hand. - This is a joke. - Rich Russo does not play for the Dallas Cowboys. (laughing) - I was wondering. - I was wondering. - I was wondering. - Is that live? (laughing) - I was wondering what in my mind like. - I was going to say, right when they was done, I was going to say, guys, I never heard of this. (laughing) - It's what you should've said. - Yeah, I still got, I got all five of my fingers. (laughing) I mean, I'll tell you. I kind of like how we just held to what was real though, and true. - He stood on Bendis, he was like, yeah, but Ferguson, no. (laughing) It's Ferguson, yeah. - I like that. He stood on Bendis. He went with, he knew. - Yo. - Let's go to the University of Texas. - Texas. Football head coach, Sarg. - Oh yeah. - Yeah, post-game with Archimani. - Gladys got sent to you. - We got to figure out what's going on down there at Austin. Damn. Oh, Quinn's just getting himself ready to go, and I think Quinn's probably helping Arch with me ripping his ass, even though he's 26 to 31 for over 300 yards. I was still ripping his ass today, but that's what we do around here. - Hey, y'all need to calm down. They're gonna run down on you. - He did, he's posting bail right now. - I said, I was saying, he did awesome. - He's showing him that clip right now, look, Josh. - What? - I think I got me for a baby one. - I'm not up. (laughing) - They're ripping quarterback's asses down there. (laughing) - This is a trapman. Vote in time? What do we say? - Yeah, yeah, let's do that. - We got Uncle Crash out, two-time champ. We got Matt Higgs with the Sandler check-in. Holy snikies, he said. Crew-pranked Gronk, that was good. - Mm. - UT Sark talking Quinn Ewers, and Archmanding there in the extracurricular activities. - Yeah, they got to calm down, buddy. Find another way to penalize each other. - Yeah. - You know what time it is? That was two interceptions out there, son. - They do say it's the most liberal city in Texas. - Time for some ass ripping. (laughing) - Law office. - Okay, I don't know. This is tough. I could get either one of them. - Couple of the locals in Austin or wishing they could play quarterback. (laughing) Sandler's my guy, though, I'm not voting chief. Who do you go for? - I am gonna go. I'm gonna go with Gronk, man. I thought they executed that pretty nicely. - Yeah, you stood on it, too. I'm rather than Trish Clipsdale. - How do you see? - I'll be gonna go with Gronk prank as well. - Brian, cheers. - Okay, I'll vote for Sark by a score two to one to one to one. And your new G-bag that a champion is the Fox broadcast crew with a prank of Rob Gronkowski. They thought he was done with it and what he really was. What we figured out there. Okay, coming up next, chief, what's in store? - Got a little best of the weekend for you. Plenty of college footballs and man, I hate to do this, but this coach needs to be fired next year in the nation. - Well, thank you, Lucius. It is the G-bag nation here on the fan, Mike McCarthy Presser scheduled for three o'clock, so we're 15 minutes from that. Time now for Eric Chia follows, best over the weekend. Okay, well, this was once again, what a just an amazing sports weekend across the board. We had great college football on Friday night. That turned into great college football on Saturday. That was a whirlwind of an NFL football Sunday. And not to mention, we'll talk about a Friday news dump. We find out Friday night that the New York Knicks are trading for Minnesota timberwolf Carl Anthony Towns, or as Mad Dog Russo likes to call him. - Carl Anthony Edwards. - Which you can understand that mistake. Now, I thought, I'm like, I'm looking through going okay. First of all, is Woj kicking himself right now? Did he not wanna wait for this one last bomb to drop before hanging him up? It would have been a heck of a way to go out. Some people are alleging that it's now is Shombre Alerts instead of Wojibobs? You don't like that? - No. - Shombre Alerts. - I was wondering though, when this happened and I was like, do we tweet out like Shombom? Like, what are we calling this now? But the Shombre Alert, no. That's a little too off-putting for you. - Yeah, now I got a daughter. - No, it's like more so than a bomb. - Yeah. - Yeah. Hey, listen, man, I get that. But I was surprised. And they're moving on from one of their dudes. This was supposed to be the Nova Knicks. Dante D'Vincenzo, my time. Now, this is where I'm like, this isn't a backfire so bad on the Knicks. This is the beloved Dante D'Vincenzo, who came up big time after time last season and into the postseason. So my iconic MSG moments now involve the Italian hero, Dante D'Vincenzo. And he's part of the fabric that is the Nova Knicks. Now, all the college guys now back with the team. And you're gonna rip that out. I mean, you're gonna rip that type of locker room presents out. A guy who the city rallies around and absolutely loves. And you're gonna put in Carl Anthony Towns. And we know what that can look like. And I don't know if mentally he's prepared. I mean, the first thing that happened after he was traded, Carl Anthony Towns just tweets out, dot, dot, dot. And the first response is a Knicks fan saying, don't be coming to the garden acting like a B. Oh, yes. Oh, that's the tight, like, welcome to New York, Carl Anthony Towns. I don't know if these built for something like that. I think this is a disastrous move for the Knicks. This is gonna backfire in a huge way. And we'll see what I guess the Timberwolves are just doing the thing where, hey, go Bears about to be. He's on an expiring contract. Now, Julie's randal same thing. Let's just reshuffle the decks here. We'll build around Anthony Edwards. They just drafted, dilling him. Well, a lot of people are like, hey, maybe one of the steals of the draft there. So Jackson Smith, the Gujuba. Shaking things up a little bit. And maybe the one step backwards for the two steps forward. I don't know. But the Knicks, I think you just bleeped yourselves. Yes, possibly. I don't know who won this trade though. We'll see. Like, I totally get what you're saying about Carl Anthony Towns. It's just shocking that Minnesota gave up. After you built a program that can knock off Denver, you're in the conference finals. You're like, nope, gotta blow it up. I don't know. Maybe finances became a bigger concern. They totally screwed up making the trade. So I guess this is an attempt to salvage it. For New York, I feel like D'Vincenzo and Randall aren't winning us a championship. Julius Randall is actually devolving in front of our very eyes as Jalen Brunson is ascending. That's right. So we're gonna trade like our non-elite championship pieces in the hopes of getting this guy. You know, sometimes these pairings can be perfect and maybe it reinvigorates him. But, you know, if I'm the Knicks right now, I'm just trying to make sure that as Carl Anthony Towns comes in, we need you to be a secondary guy. You're not the superstar here that's gonna stir our drink for us. I'm in agreement with everything you said. Did you guys see the K-State guy do his five-layer burrito payoff? I know Brodus had that ready. He was getting pinged as soon as he went live with that. What'd you make of it, Brodus? Did he actually do it? No, he didn't. He didn't do it on video. He did photo evidence of it. He covered his own face. So we still don't know exactly who this guy is unless you know his bare cheeks well enough to identify him. But he went, he was supposed to do it Saturday night, but K-State played earlier in the day. They were like an 11 AM kick. So all the K-State fans were like, "Dude, you just put the five-layer burrito curse on it. It's the same way the FSPU guy did. You need to get ahead of this now before kickoff." Exactly, because K-State nation, understandably so, felt like if that burrito didn't enter that guy's backside before kickoff, they're immediately going to lose until he does. So then you're gonna lose another game back-to-back else. That's not what you wanna do. We pivoted to an AM burrito consumption. And the photos, you know, it's photo evidence. So it's hard to say exactly how far the burrito is really up there. Now, do you see the pictures? I have stuff. Oh, yeah, I saw it. I was gonna ask Carter's replacement today. Kaitlyn to throw him up on the fan cam, but I decided against it. So you guys can perhaps do your own, probably your own HR file or something like that. So, but yeah, I mean, I guess the photos say, what do you say, Wolchuck? Are you thinking this guy actually kind of put it in there? I think he did it. Yeah, I think, well done. The curse is lifted. Congratulations. Well, Kaitlyn. Yeah, big win. Exactly. At least he did something unlike the FSU guy. Yeah, very, very disheartening. I think I just walk away from fandom at that point. Did you guys see why Tim Tebow and Aaron Hernandez were trending on Saturday night? No, apparently they have sort of the duality of teammates here and the internet was reminded of two great Florida Gators, Tim Tebow and Aaron Hernandez. One player for Alabama has written on his eye paint, Psalms 19, 18, and the other guy has on his eye paint. It reads, kill everybody. And so, and they, they were standing next to each other. So it was pretty interesting to see it. Now, the guy who has to kill everybody. The stud receiver is the stud 17 year old receiver who is doing exactly that. Just, I mean, killing everybody that is in his way. This is the same 17 year old wide receiver for Alabama whose first two plays this season, as a member of the football team, it was two catches for 160 plus yards and two touchdowns. That's how he entered his Alabama tenure. And he's just, he's picking up right where he left off week in, week out. And what he did to Georgia the other night, what an unbelievable game it was. I know we'll get more into the college football stuff. I think during the expressway, but perhaps the greatest college football, certainly the greatest college football quarter I've ever seen. That fourth quarter was as like, I don't know if I want to be prisoner of the moment here, but like what Ryan Williams did after Carson Beck comes all the way back. And I'm writing Carson back off. I'm like, I've never understood why Carson Beck is thought of as a first rounder. Then he leads Georgia all the way back. And then as soon as they take the lead boom, here's Ryan Williams, hold my beer, Alabama right back on top. I thought it was the best regular season game. Maybe I've seen since Texas, Ohio State back in 2005. It was incredible. - It was, dude, those plays, those plays are absolutely ridiculous. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for this guy. I mean, Ohio State has a ridiculous freshman, a wide receiver as well, who continues to come up with these two plays. But yeah, man, 17 years old, you're going to have to change the time spent away from high school. This kid could play in the NFL right now. Same with the boys at State running back. We'll get to him a little bit later, but that dude Ashton Gente, he's, he looks like he's impossible to tackle. - Yeah. - He is running through defenders five, six at a time. - Yeah, he is. - They're trying to gang tackle him and he's like, sorry, I'm too good for you guys. - I did feel bad for the OU player who got truck-sticked in the pregame by Auburn cheerleader that was doing back flips across the field. - I did not see this. - Now this is one that would be fan cam worthy, but I definitely encourage you to look it up. Like everybody, they're out on the field pregame festivities. OU players are running onto the field and Auburn cheerleaders are back flipping across the field and just absolutely takes this guy out. - Is he in concussion protocol this morning? - I'm sure there's, I'm sure they were doing some type of pregame testing on this dude 'cause that was a smack he took. - So there's no schooner action in that, right? - Pretty good technique. - I think that's a clean hit. - This is a part of me that felt like, is this personal, you know? Like what, did she have something out for this kid? 'Cause he got absolutely de-cleated in a way that you're not, you're used to seeing the player run into the cheerleader and she gets de-cleated. This was the reverse of that and it was hysterical. But OU was one of your cheerleader. - Smaller dude. - But it might be a dude. This isn't an OU player. That's a, that looks like an OU cheerleader that is being kamikazeed by an Auburn cheerleader. I thought it was a player. I thought it was a player that got took it out. - Somebody did it. - No, it is a player that gets taken out. - Okay, okay. - But I think the cheerleaders are due. - Yeah. - Oh, okay. - But not, not, not a big one. - Yeah, that's gonna be a short time now. - How are you doing the flips like as they're entering the field? - Seriously, you pass about 15 people. You can't see them while you're flipped. Like, oh my goodness, I'm in the middle of the players. Maybe cut this short, he's blindfolded. - Gosh. - I was thinking it felt a little bit personal. I don't know. I'll continue to kind of scratch all of the details on that one. And then finally, again, I hate to fire people on the radio, but Riverside High School in Bell, West Virginia, he touched it. - Riverside. - You deserve to be gone. - He is. - I know this is your first season as head coach. - Who's our team with the school? - But this dude with 55 seconds till the half, Riverside had called three time outs, 18 seconds left now. They have the ball down in their own territory. They attempt a 97 yard field goal before half time. - 97 yard field goal? - We don't even trust the opportunity to do that. Of course, the field goal goes about 40 yards, and then it's received by the return team and scored going into halftime for a touchdown. It's the worst coaching decision, perhaps ever in all of sporting. - Wow, a 97 yard high school field goal. That's what you're doing here. - Analytics, man. - And this is your one, and this guy's learning on the fly, but my gosh, I think you need to punt on Heath Huffman. Was he not aware of the role? You could run that in. (laughing) - He might not be. - Wait, wait, wait a minute. They're running? - Maybe the first rule of people aren't aware of them. - No, we didn't punt. What are we doing? - The Eagles player with the brain fart of the week, shoving the Buccaneers player into his own punt returner to force the Muff thinking that, oh, it'll be a flag on the Buccaneers, but of course, it's not because he intentionally threw the buccaneer player into his own punt returner. So- - He's been doing this since he was a cult. Like this is normal for him. He didn't know that there was a rule against that. What an idiot. - Gotta be a little bit more subtle, I suppose. Thank you, Chief. - Thomas, you looking at this Mets game at all? - Yeah, it's now eight, seven in the top of the ninth. - The Mets scored six. The Braves came back with four in the eight to take the lead and then Lindor has just hit a two run homer now on the top of the ninth to make the Mets up eight to seven. - One out. - One out. All right, this thing, it's the last three innings have been crazy in this baseball game. - So top of the ninth year, the Mets are at bat with one out and they get two more. We'll go to the bottom of the ninth and probably be telling you about that exciting conclusion. Sometime after the Mike McCarthy press conference, which is next right here on the fan. It's been a long year. - After investing billions to light up our network, T-Mobile is America's largest 5G network. Plus, right now, you can switch, keep your phone and we'll pay it off up to $800.
