"He is just, he's escaping things in the backfield. He's making things happen. And I guess they are designing some cool stuff for him. And they are making things happen with Chase claypool and Darnell Mooney, which is, it's not a lot. He's more comfortable, too, as a passer. The outer structure stuff is awesome. But you can't live on that, but some of the instructor stuff. It's a lot better than it had been even back in September. So man, it is the error on him is certainly pointing up and I might, I think Tyree kill was the guy who put in the MVP conversation among the non quarterbacks like holy crap. The other thing I'll say is, I think Jalen Johnson's a fine player. I think it'll be a lengthy career as sort of a quality cornerback in this league. If you didn't know who the opponent was and you just watched Jalen Johnson this game in comparison to the people he was trying to cover and you were like, what do you think that guy's 40 time is? You'd be like, I don't know, it looks like a 7 6 7 8 type of guy right here. Oh my God, like, just a miserable day for him. The only thing I was saving them was the under throws. But man, tyreek hill is unguardable right now. And when you put all your resources into guarding them, they have Jalen waddle to go to. The bears game a lot of his own looks. That's no good. I mean, the stress that speed puts on a zone defense, it just immediately obliterates it. So, boy, it's cooking right now for the dolphins. And, you know, we'll see what happens as the year goes on. I do wonder, yes, if tyrique has like a soft tissue injury, that's a huge issue. I do also wonder as team C more and more of what this might be Daniel offense is with this caliber of sweet. Does it speed just forever overwhelm? Or will teams find a way to counter that and adjust, I don't know if we have that answer yet, but it's working. The defense isn't very good, but it's working. It was funny. Mike mcdaniel said today that Justin Fields was as fast as any skill position player that he's seen in the league. I'm sure he's obviously leaving out tyreek hill there who is on a different level. But speed is, we always used to make fun of Al Davis for stockpiling fast players and it was never successful for the Raiders, but that it wasn't that wasn't the NFL back then, right? And it wasn't spread out and there wasn't as much space to work with on the field. Now, I think speed is really the last, it's that last trait, right? That is not unstoppable, but is the thing that separates you from anybody else. I think that's why Heinz from Indianapolis, for example, was why he had offers at the trade deadline just because I think it's just, it's the one thing that if other teams have it and you don't, there's nothing you can do about it. And I'll make like a weird comp to think when the royals won the World Series. Do you remember what I'm talking about? It was like 5 years ago.

Patriots Beat
"al davis" Discussed on Patriots Beat
"I mean, come on. Like if Al Davis was still alive, he'd be a first round pick. I genuinely believe that. And have you even just watched him, not even like just highlights? I've seen on my Twitter feed. I've definitely seen some matters of bombs, yes. So you understand this isn't another punting prospect. This guy is different. So let me ask you a question. Shout out real quick shout out to PFF who added special teamers just kickers and long snappers didn't add punters, and that was adding punters one at a time, but hasn't done a raise yet. They're just trying to torture me anyway, your question. Okay, so let me ask you a question, though, because one of my favorite days on the bee early on, I was in Detroit for joint practices with the Patriots and lines. I sat next to Matt Matt Adam the entire practice and we just talked football the entire time. He obviously played a lot on special teams and in the kicking game. He knows all about punters kickers all of it. He knows what everybody's assignments are in everything. He was talking about Jake Bailey who was a rookie at the time. And he said the concern that you have with guys that are big legged punters like a Jake Bailey is that they either drive it 350 yards or they shank it. There's no in between, right? There's no feel or touch on the football. There's no coffin corner punt. There's not that much of that, but they can bomb at 75 yards. Bailey does have a little he has some different clubs in the bag, right? He can do some different things. But does matter have the leg of a God or does he have the entire repertoire as a punter? No, I mean, he's precise. He's precise. He had for as strong as his leg is. I forget how many touchbacks he had. I'll have to look it up. It's not a lot. And by the way, he studies, Jake Bailey. So this is another reason Evan you'll like him is he uses a lot of math and analytics. To figure out the way he wants to who's the golfer that everybody hates, that does that. Bryson DeChambeau. I thought it was great. Yeah. So there's some, there's some similarity there and he studies a lot of Jake Bailey because similar leg power similar height weight, all of that. So it's not something I'm worried about with him. Yeah. The other thing is when you invest in gunners like the Patriots do, it's not something you worry about as much, because you have the best gunners..
Game of Crimes
"al davis" Discussed on Game of Crimes
"It's like, no, you gave it your own. And by the way, did you notice how I already worked in you were already a one percenter. So we're going to talk about the 1% or later. You see, notice how I slid that right in on you. I did. Zero excuses zero blame. And this is not false humility. It's just a statement of fact. I just wasn't good enough. The standards are extremely high to play in that league. I just wasn't good enough. But you know, but the thing is, like you say, I like the way you look back on it rather than blaming anything and being jealous of guys. You go, look, I gave it my all. I did the best that I could. It is what it is. So where does plan B come from? It isn't that life, though, isn't that like whatever we do is that succeed or fail. If we can look back and say, man, I did my best. And it doesn't need to be perfect. It's like perfect. I left it all on the field. I tried my hardest. I did the best I could every day. Those lessons learned even behind failure in football translated into my professional life. I just wanted to do my best. Well, it's a fact of life too. You tend to learn more from failures than from success, because success goes to your head, but failure is really tell you. I got to work on some things. Here's what I need to do. Here's the mistakes I can avoid. So failure, people look at failure as a bad thing, but failure is a great teacher. If you've got the right mindset for it. As athletes, people that are running businesses trying to run a family trying to have successful relationships. I think that, at least, in my case, you have to fail in order to succeed. You have to fail. You know, like one of my problems is that wisdom is always something that came to me right after I needed it. It's called hindsight. Yeah. Gee, look at this. If I'd only done this, yes, wisdom is what you get after the fact, not before the fact. If I'd only picked those numbers on a one the Super Bowl laundry or the Powerball lottery, whatever it is out there. I picked the right, I pick I have a 100% record of picking the right Powerball numbers the day after after the fact, yeah, you know? So that's the problem with psychics too. Psyches can't tell you the Powerball now. If you're really a psychic, what are the winning numbers, you know? Right. One of the good things about your story though, Jay, is that you're not afraid to tell us what really happened. And you're not sitting here whining about it. Well, if only, you know, and Al Davis didn't like me and you know, what if I had been out there when Jerry Rice wasn't there what I've done better? You accepted the circumstances and you've moved on. So that's very admirable..

"Perhaps students of physics today or people starting off today have not of classical classical views of the world and they might be in a better position to really think about it. You know You know. I think the brain is sort of Be have that baggage to get door meeting our new style. We have we have that. We have that baggage and we also have our our preconceptions to overcome so one reason. I think that a lot of breakthroughs in physics done by young people is that. They don't know what they can't. They have no preconceptions. About you. Know the way the world should work And so there's also that aspect as well You got sort of a a blank slate. You like to develop winter. Chinook theories. Yes i wanted to go into a black hole physics Sort of related topics. So you mentioned that. So we have this entity al davis sort of know how it might have formed so it's sort of a nice experimental men beacon of see anything but it's it's a nice laboratory to at least start asking questions and on some of these things right so so one thing. I was wondering about mean. I don't know if this is likely to think about it is is the black core singularity in space on a cigarette in time or both so. It's it's both but predominantly a singularity in time And one of the in fact. One of the reasons people are interested in studying. The singularity of the black hole is Is that We have another singularity in time that we know about which is the big bang and so it's hoped that if we can learn enough about quantum gravity by studying black holes that some of that no new intuition will carry over into developing better ideas about cosmology We can talk about that a little bit later if you like but but maybe just to to summarize for those people who don't have the background you know the way one of the hallmarks of einstein's theory of gravity is that if you have a a massive object and you ask you know what are the trajectories of light rays as they pass by that massive object well according ice theory they get bent a little bit so so In a way mass acts like a lens that focuses light rays and in fact that one of the earliest verifications of einstein's theory was studying the apparent positions of stars during a solar eclipse in nineteen. Nineteen that they took to photographic plates one without the sun and then one during the eclipse and Looked at the positions of stars. Were near the sun and they saw that they were slightly moved in their apparent position..

Joel what's happening on CBS Sports Radio man? You know what and I obviously you would have to be verified with people who know me for this long but I've had respect for Brady since he was a Michigan. I remember, you know, hearing about why Lloyd Carr was split time because through handsome with the next John Elway and and even back then you could see like you just watched the guy you go. How do you take this guy out of the game? I don't care about the physical ability of these. The other guy that that he's splitting time with this guy just win. He's just got something about him now. I won't tell you the prior to his NFL career that I had. I had have ripped his to go as the guy that was gonna win the Super Bowl, But I knew you didn't have started taking some point and it's just You know, there there. He has less physical ability than virtually anybody else's. The position the league he's done more with less. And if you can't respect listen, I'm a Broncos fan, man. I mean, we're talking by ovaries for the past 20 some years that you guys have been good, and if you can't respect that level of greatness. What's there? Not if the only thing you have to hang on this guy's head is the plate gates and go talk to somebody else. Great character. Great teammate. Good dad. Good human being accessible. Always good with the media Got that little bit of fire in his belly to go after a Tron. Matthew. What's not to like about a guy like that? Joe. I'm with the appreciate the phone call. Not a good day.

"Is a late breaking story today and I just hope it doesn't turn out to be tragic, but Mike Reed, and he reached son. There's the linebackers coach and he was involved in a bad automobile accident and he was not critically injured. But apparently some infants work. And I don't know. I don't know what's going to happen. It was just breaking about an hour and a half ago. That's an unsettling thing for that football team going into tablets, right? All right? Yes, I understand. Patrick Mahomes is the best and Tariq can get deep. And you know you've got Kelsey working underneath. Do you think there's some reasons to be careful before you think this is gonna be around? I think the bucks The Bucks have the better defensive front. Okay, The Chiefs have the better secondary. There's no question about that in my mind. So so we shall see what happens. Going forward. Do you think Kansas City even tries to run the ball? Because I've been talking about the prop Mahomes over 40.5 attempted thinking through 49 times. Ah, in week 12 when they play the Buccaneers 27 24. Victory. I know it's high 40. That has a lot of attempts, but I just don't know They're gonna try to run the ball against Tampa it all what do you think? Well, if you're having trouble with the defensive front, Tom in the NFL, you've got to run the ball, Are you You've got to try to run the ball at Jason Pierre Paul and barren on the other side. You've got it. You've got to make them at least make that they might have to block someone who's coming right out. They have to get through somebody who's coming right at him. I don't know. Don't know that the Chiefs can give up the run completely in this game that I think that would be a mist. Ake. I'm not quite sure now, obviously if they fall behind And they have to throw it all the time. It's interesting that my homes On Russian is one of the props. I take props. I don't take prop. Seriously. I have some always bet the coins like, you know, I gotta throw that out. I was like, I just get a big I get a big kick out of it. And one of the houses believe it or not believe it or not made tales minus one or five favor overheads minus one of four. Normally, heads draws most of the money, you know, but it's just great to smile and say, Hey, I've got house money off the coin, but Bro. I lost the coin toss. I lost a point. I called him the only coin toss here. My two by two great props, stories. One is stupidity. I called in and just on a goof. I asked the guy what? What's a coin ties with one of the coin toss? Because I figured is 1 10 1 10, Right Can be 1 10 1 10, he said tails minus 1 15. Go, go. The Sharps must be on the tails Amiga with tails, and it came up heads signed a blues and more juice. And I needed to on a stupid coin toss. And then the other one was two years ago. And I've never bet this before. I bet the length of the national anthem because I had supposedly Ah information. How long the anthem Was I had to be, and it was going to be over. So I bet over on the anthem and sure enough, it goes under and I lose and has like what happened. So I was talking to my butt and he goes. Well, apparently, What happened is they told him because of flyover was coming. They had to speed up the national and a little bit. I'm like, Where is that? You give me this words that information. Speed of the damn anthem. So I'm done with props. Brent. I won't do props. I bet to a moment to I'm done out of the prop game I got. I've got one. Tom Brady that I want to throw out. Will Tom Brady score a touchdown? Okay, And it's 4 to 1 positive if he does, and I'm gonna bet that he does. Now they've got to get the ball down by the one. He's pretty good quarterback. I have to believe That deep in his heart deep in his heart. Tom Brady wants to tell his grandchildren someday I'm the oldest guy, whoever scored a touchdown in a Super Bowl. Okay, I'll be the only guy that can beat as far as I could tell Brady himself next year when he's 44, right. I'm gonna pull for that. And, uh I do have my homes under 23, a half yards rushing and one of the one reason I have the Chiefs to win it. My home's when he ends a game, and he's out there on that last serious to run the clock out and take the knee. Most quarterbacks goes straight down after they get the snap. Mahomes dances back about three or four yards, okay? So I got that little thing going forward. If they win the game for those of the pride, just do it. Laughs and giggles and exact 30 to 24. Do you think there's value in the under 57 56 a half? Okay? Absolutely. I'm I'm all in about the under my guy, Steve McKinnon. At least then hey puts up points. Bird weekly. And in the last 11 Super Bowls with totals in the fifties, the under is eight and 3 72.7. Now I have also I've also ahead. You know me. I'm always looking for that middle, so I've been able to get a 3 to 18. Because I teased the bucks up to nine and the over under up to 62 took the under there. So that's that's the teaser that I'm working with this game. So you know, I saw what those dudes and Wall Street were doing last week. I happen to like Think, Colonel Fluency, Wagering stop the last time I better under and I bet a number of under is in the Super Bowl brain because I just figured he wants take the over so I'll take the under. I don't love it, but My last under in my favorite under in the Super Bowl was the Atlanta Falcons and the Patriots. That was a funnel. We all enjoyed that one. Look that I had the Falcons that I declared it over at halftime. I'll never forget this. That was the first year of the season. And I was on the halftime show. And I say that the end of the smart Alec fashion turn out the lights leads. This party's over for everybody because I was all over the Falcons. I couldn't believe what happened in the and then they wound up in overtime on Dad lost the game. Oh, yeah, well, you and I had the same looks on our face after that game because I had the Falcons plus three Falcons money line and the underway. I went to three and Oh, toe. Oh, in three. Thanks for coming, everybody. Hunters and I was throwing a Super Bowl party so I couldn't be mad. Exactly. Everybody's like because after After the party. I was like here, Take your food. Get the hell out of here! Go, go, everybody. Oh, come on, get lost bread. Enjoy the Super Bowl. Have a great time. I know you well and we'll look forward to talking to you soon, my friend.

"We have the most awkward scenario that could take place on Super Bowl Sunday. Yes point we're just discussing this. It's very unlikely. It's extremely unlikely. But what if Roger Goodell had to hand out the M V P trophy or be up on the dais with the M V p in the M v P with Antonio Brown of the Buccaneers? That's even more is It might be more awkward than it because he's done with Brady. Yeah, I was up there on the podium. Ready? Yeah. And it wasn't awkward from the standpoint of Brady was playing to the crowd like he didn't care about the commissioner. He's already won the Super Bowl, and the commissioner gives the Super Bowl trophy to the owner. He doesn't give the Super Bowl trophy. He doesn't I handle the M V. P honors where I give him the keys to the truck, But the commissioner is not gonna have any interaction. Now Antonio Brown could be on the podium. And the commissioner would be there. But I'm going to guess the commissioner would probably be Have tunnel vision with what he needs to do, and Antonio Brown would be playing to the audience there. But, yeah, that could be awkward. Yeah, could be awkward. It's not any more awkward. Then maybe the most awkward moment. Where you had Al Davis and Pete Rozelle, and they didn't like each other famously didn't like each other. Al Davis and the Raiders suing the NFL and then Allen, the Raiders win the Super Bowl, and Pete Rozelle is there and got a hand him the trophy. That was awkward. That was awkward. Yes, my club. I watched the documentary on ESPN last night. The Raiders had these two safeties that hit people like on the set, like any time and they got take it to court. This guy Atkinson, your Jack considering hit Lynn Swan in the head and Jack Tatum and went to federal court, and that's why they want they lost a lawsuit on this like they were cheaters. Well, I mean, like, you know, they were so dirty. It was unbelievable. Did they take advantage of the rules or that there were no rules? Probably the latter. So back then, like their helmets were paper thin, and they were clubbing each other. But that's I mean, you you watch old football and you go. Oh, my God, That's a completely different sport than what's being played now. Couple. They showed a clip last night. From that I saw a little bit Jack Tatum of the Raiders. The safety hits Sammy White of the Vikings in the super vulnerable. He hits him in the chin in the face mask, his helmet pops off his head. And Sammy White is quoted saying. I can't see I can't wear my eyes. I can't and he was out. There was no flags thrown on the play, so it's not a flag will play back then. And I was a Vikings fan back then, and I knew that it was gonna be a long day. Because the Raiders the Raiders would take your lunch. But you know the bully on the playground. That's the Raiders. They would show up and you would just empty out your pockets. They didn't even have to ask for any money. They just did it. And I mean, when they come in Just that, like when you have an aura. Think about teams in in sports history. Georgetown with Patrick Ewing, John Thompson, you had Hoya paranoia, and it was real. You had the Raiders had that there was something about the Raiders that you knew that owner would do whatever it took. And you knew that the cast of characters that they had were basically you know, the land of misfit toys, and you had them And somehow they made it all work, and they embraced who they were what they were, and they had no apologies. You have a club. What did that end up hurting them? Because anything they did had the microscope on them Because in this court case, they showed all these plays where the Steelers and Joe Greene would kick people and spit on them and cheat. Just as much was, said Joe Green. I don't know he was. Was he a bit dirty? You're just all he was dirty. When he first started because Joe nearly left the Steelers. He might have walked out on him. He just didn't want to play like he was so competitive and you know, this is before he was doing a Coca Cola commercial. Like like that mean Joe Greene probably would have, you know, thrown the jersey really hard at the kid and knocked him down or something. But the fact that he was mean Joe Greene. People were like, Oh, my God, he's gonna solve side to him. He used to kick people. He spit on people. If you were dirty to him, he was coming after you. I mean, Tony Dungy, you who's join us next hour. He tell me stories that mean Joe Greene was exactly that. He was You know, And they were losing back then those first couple of years when Chuck Noll got there, and then they drafted Bradshaw mean Joe Greene comes in. They were still bad football, too. And, uh mean Joe Greene was, you know, I think very frustrated. Not having any anything to do with that. Let me get a couple of phone calls Caleb in north Carolina. Hi, Caleb. What's on your mind today? 86 5 to 50. Got two things for you. First of all, if the Chiefs one Sunday, where do you think this puts Andy Reid in terms of all time NFL head touches. And then second of all, I just wanted to give a shout out to talking team guys, They've been killing it. And I think, 30 minutes for one week just isn't enough time given more air time.

"At 866496 23 100. Holly. I'm sort of sad for the Warriors that they had their one of their most enjoyable games of the year, if not their most enjoyable game of the year. On the night of the outdated documentary we used to. We used to share real estate together. I never had a problem with the war ease. Yes, they knew the greatness of the greatness of the Oakland Alameda County Coliseum. It's a short walk from the concourse City to the very funny we brought this up. I cannot, for all the life of me. Remember any co mingling between the Warriors and the Raiders, although we heard from a listen Who said that the Hall of Famer used to say on our airways when Rick Perry had a show that Al Davis had him out to practice, and then he ran routes and that I wanted to sign Rick as a wide receiver. I like his height and his athletic ability. I mean, here's the question. Is he running? Is he running the routes? Either A. With the fanny pack on that he wore every day. It can be our or be in the buckskin jacket with the tassels when he defended, I say both, I say both. Why stop at one? What's the Let's throw it out? Come on, come on out for some around. She's like, hang out and put on my outfit puts on the bucks get kicked around on the fanny pack. It's my case. 6 ft seven. Rick Barry is a tight end in the Red Zone, man. You know what I mean? He had a couple down so but anyway, so so good will continue to hit it. We have sound on it. All right, so welcoming, copes back into the scene here anymore anymore. Thoughts that popped in your head and you can't make the transition behind the glass ever on the heels of the Rick Barry. I'd like you to line up and kick a field goal. Granny shot Yeah, we're all night. They call it a freak. A great straight ahead. Straight ahead on like a granny would kick. You have the waste of the soccer style Socialist. Do that. Yeah, I'm sure you appreciate it. This work but for coast, maybe just a quick explanation. They also move. How cool is that? They had the quick cut a ray guy just with the William just but just a little mop Top the red hair just booting it. Well, the leg too late, like absolutely Think Way was in the air for like a day. Still the greatest partner I've ever seen. So, Coach. They had that punter back then, Ray guy. The guy was always know what he was a great guy. No. Believe Paul, even from former mystery guest Ray guy, dude, you know what I mean? We talked about it and he threw no hitters Southern Mississippi. Remember that he was like a legendary baseball prospect. These are just some of the other kind of Ah, fruits of the mystery guest era. I'm telling you, we got to get back to the mystery guest. We gotta get back. Okay. All right. All right. 2020 2021 past. You know, we got a virus out there. People didn't mystery guest, okay? All right. Well, great guide. It was fantastic. Actually, It was so long ago that we actually have a whole new generation of mystery guests, You know? Really? Yes. That's the way we were doing The ray guys in the in the Joe Rudy's of the world like Navarro Bowman could be a mystery, right? Yeah, very good. Very good. Or, you know, Andhra speed rinse. Could be a Mr first guy. We gotta call. Yeah. Z doesn't um against line reach out to Latvia. Cause he's leaning against a car smoking a butt somewhere. Haven't says, yacht. By the way, guys, How about Rose? Ellen? This mags? How about Rose? Stop, dude, Non stop smoking butts, man. And I was telling cops Go have some very good Is it gonna say I felt the bad man when he When he passed away. I was like I kind of felt it may be too Like these two guys were so great. I don't want either of them to go. That's essentially what I was just going to say. I'll say I was told Copes. I started feeling bad for him near the end. Like his eyes. He looked kind of like a top like a basset hound face. He got all droopy and water, I think drove him into the ground. I think so. I put some my son is And then I'll try to get kind of got sentimental. When I tell you I love to dominate you on the plane field, but health and life and death is a different thing. That's what he said. It's like the time he showed his humanity. Then, although his humanity was on display of the way he was a ground breaker by hiring minority coaches, and Tom Flores and art Shell and You know, he was heartbroken. Al. For all the reffing was easily the most forward looking sort of image Raskin. I love that oppressors, and that should not be that should not be understated. That's a bit to me. That's a really important part of his legacy for sure, And he told us that story about the redhead and nap about when he had the Raiders in the sixties, and they were doing a preseason tour down and either Louisiana They had a pre exhibition game against like the Houston Oilers in like Louisiana. Location, my ass. Yes. Seriously. No joke. No joke, the they ran up against it. And now Al was pissed out like called off the game or flew back home. Or he wouldn't He wouldn't have it, man. So that's gotta shout out. Al's no question. Absolute racial justice man was yes. And and and gender justice, too, for real pirate Jamie Trash That's been the guy Man, e. I said the listener wrote in and said, Hey, man! I know I only knew Al in his later years when he had any completely had lost his fastball student. He was a child. He was basically kind of the character we joke about, but not slide, right, but also not as like. The team wasn't good. You know? I mean, like they were good when I was, you know, when I was in fifth grade sixth grade, they make that Super bowl run or whatever, but they were. They were kind of a joke for all of my child questions. They have the good team you know, to write. We can. And then all those guys they want to. They were really from 90. When they lost to the bills in the playoffs was at 90 91. Yeah, that point up until that the death of Hollywood. You had him on the ticket. 10 50. They were terrible. Terrible when you used to, didn't you do? The weekly s so when the tickets and 50 launched The first season. Jon Gruden was coaching. So is 97. Yeah, and they well, they were bad, right?

"You know his love of Military and how it relates to football, But what they would do is they would they would use a lan cameras speaking and then Continue his actual voice from that authentic interview, and then they would go right into it, where the deep fake technology in the audio of the actor playing out would come in. And I think it was really deceiving Is there What did I ever really say that hell? No. He didn't say that. But they have him saying things that He did. He never said now. Did he think them on? It was just It was a way to have a narration done. Like Ken Burns and his brilliant work on PBS baseball used John Chancellor. What a great delivery that was a different vibe. This was just, you know, among character playing Roselle, one character playing out And, um So I came away. Thinking out would probably be royally pissed off about a lot of it, and the way looked in it with the The you know the deep fake technology in the way they portrayed him. And then just some of the things that they had him saying, which would be more of Ah narrator That out looking at it. I don't think he would. He would like that very much. But again. I'm way too close to it to judge it. I didn't really enjoy it. I think it was soaking in a lot of ways, but for people that I have no knowledge of this at all, and you want to hear the story of Al Davis and what he really did in this league, and they didn't touch anything with Marcus. They stayed away from that. And it brought up a lot of subjects, not just roselle that mainly it was about Pete Rozelle. So I'm anxious to hear to have you watch it and give me your thoughts on it because it was just just very different. Tonight, six o'clock on ESPN Al Davis versus the NFL will get into that deeper. Tomorrow. We got a great guest list. Today is Super Bowl Week continues on There's a lot of 40 Niners news. Roger Goodell is going to talk today. The words take on Dallas.

"We reference that a lot on this show, you know, because actually be doing some interesting. Some interesting relationships recently. You do why you took four of the Alzheimer's there. Parcells, Belichick, Davis and Roselle Instead, it's six o'clock tomorrow night, and I would I'd recommend. You know, it's funny can. In addition to just you know the digital technology, which blood which makes this thing, a landmark in addition to the history of the courtroom stuff, I think Raiders fans were just going are going to just love going back and reliving. The Coliseum footage. Sure, 72 74. I mean all that Super Bowl by the way, I want to give you huge praise for layering in the great and legendary immortal Bill King's radio calls that make it makes a huge difference in this documentary. I tell you, I got the goose bumps because I'm a bill King acolyte. When I hear him, say, old man, Willie and I'm a 40 Niner fan, not a Raider fan. Even I got goose bumps. You confirm. Willie is so deep. Alito is way, says Madden's got a grin. Madden's got a grin from ear to area Looks like a slit watermelon, You know? Yeah, we love him. We love him, And I think a lot of Raiders fans probably see the title of think this is gonna be another hit jobs showing how you know Al Davis is a madman. But no is. It is pulled from our Davis's point of view. You know fairly and I think greater stanza. Watch it and say, Hey, they got this story, right? Oh, no. I mean, as a guy I always viewed hours and you know what? He was wearing me out as a football fan like another lawsuit. That's a you know, you make it You do represent his side. Very, very well. And you're like, huh? It's got kind of a point here. He's got a little bit of a point E. I mean, not all of them, but a couple of them. Let's get this to start trending. Let's get this to start training today. Hashtag al was right. Well, it's funny. I don't even get into politics here, and I want, my dear, But I do just think just personality wise. I'm telling you, Donald J. Trump studied at the foot of Al Davis. There's so many things that I saw in the trump playbook. I'm like, Oh, how did that first right down to the greatness of the Raiders is in its future right there. That's the Make America Great again right there, so Definitely they're both New Yorkers to so I saw some of that. You don't have to touch that one can. Don't worry. Hey, Um, yeah, well, last one last one for you is we're gonna steal you here because we have you were big fans of the two bills and Polly and I have broken down the dynamics of that interview. Incredible. Incredible. Holly talks about Parcells being there first, and I need you like establishing dominance over the room. It felt like just what kind of anecdote in that room there didn't get up. I noticed two when Belichick came in Hey, buddy. Yeah, that, um the still making decision there for me was to try to express What it was like to be in that room by just allowing things like that to play. So I'm glad you picked up on that because there are subtle things of just then looking at each other, and I could tell you everything you need to know about their relationship. If you understand the body language between men who have known each other for years, and you can You can sense in the very beginning how they feel about each other and my favorite scene when they decide unanimously together to not go with me into the Jets locker room at the end, you can see that they've now bonded in a way over the course of this film of the course of the interview. And are now sort of united against me on. That's why I started. I included that singing and nice. They they've come into the sort of understanding by the end of this interview. I mean, they even said that there's love between them, and I just We? When? When? Bella trick walk in. I mean, you could sense like, I don't know if this is gonna be a film because one of these guys are gonna end up walking out like you could sense exactly what you sense watching the film. Oh, and by the end, that relationship had changed. And I think if you really study it, you can pick up on it. It's a great piece, man. Really isn't really studied it like forensic scientists. Yeah, great stuff can man you're doing great work. Everybody watch out. Davis versus the NFL tomorrow at six o'clock It really made my night It was it was fabulous. Congratulations, and we'll look for your next one. Thank you fellas. I look forward to it as well. Thanks. Mia's Ken Rodger's house. Fun outstanding out. Dude, I am like Jack to see this thing Now I can't see any disappointment to actually I'm confident. Actually, it's one of those things where you Sometimes you don't wanna overhype something. Well, listen. I mean, if I can judge this guy, you know, on his work on Lee. I mean, if I'm judging it on what I saw in the two bills, I mean, that really was excellent. That was an outstanding piece, haven't you? You and you mean he just praised you up? Because you're the one who's just study. You're like Eunice that was fascinated by that whole thing. I'm like, Look up ourselves sitting there. He's already waiting, You know, I mean, and they just kind of like, kind of placates. I'm like Belle check comes in. He goes. Oh, hey, pal. How you doing?

You just don't You don't see him? No. Yeah, He's a little nervous or intimidated, you know? Oh, I see. That's what I'm that's what I'm thinking like in his head. Bellagio. Excuse me.

"Thing, you know, And so he's been compared to Jordan non stop. And it feels like to me and this was a moment that really highlighted that highlighted the whole thing that game five shot. That Ah lot of people. It seems they want LeBron James to win basketball games like Michael Jordan. They want him to play like Michael Jordan. He's a different player. With a different skill set different size, like he's just got different skills. There's nothing wrong with that. Right. Every superstar player is different, at least a little bit. It's hard to find guys that are the best ever if you're talking about the 10 best Quarterbacks or MBA players, or whatever ever there's enough. There's enough differences between those guys. They're all unique in some way, shape or form. They've got a calling card. And so for LeBron James have these expectations that he's always gonna be the guy in the last second of the game to take the shot? He wasn't that guy earlier in his career, he worked his way into being that guy at times, but he true three defenders and found a wide open three pointer. It's even if he wouldn't say why. Maybe it'd be nice if he took it. I'd like to say it's hard to kill the guy when he finds a wide open three point shot, creates it himself, by the way. Knows he's created it and passes off the ball. I just blew me away. But that was a major conversation for a couple of days. It was a lot of heat on the Bron, James, so I just I think of that moment when I'm thinking of this year. And it's hysterical on some level. It's really funny to look back at that. But that's how LeBron James is judged. It's moments like that. So 855 to 1 to 4 to 27. That's how you doing the show 855 to 1 to 4 to 27 convince Quinn by the way, so If you want to hop in, you want to be a part of the show. That's who's here tonight. I mean, for J R. Let's go to Alan in Toronto. Alan, you're on CBS Sports radio. What's up? You mentioned a bunch of successful coaches. I'd like to mention one. That's miserable failure. Al Davis passed away in 2011, and he must be spinning in his grave right now, because Jon Gruden he's uh he's a complete fried. I moved and identified him as a fraud because he's placed Davis of 100 million over 10 years now. True, he captured the 2000 and two Super Bowl 48 21 against Oakland. But that club was built on again with Tony Tony Dungy defense. Yeah, sure. And they're in. Jackson was the VP of that year, and they went 79 the following year and the nine years since, Uh, since that Super Bowl. Gruden is his 30 37 58 the last The only mistake. They only made the playoffs twice and they were one and done then. And, uh, he Raiders their bodies five right now in defensive deficiency, total yards passing yards rushing yards and points allowed. They were six and three in midseason. Now they're nine and seven, and they're going to be a the outside looking in for the playoffs. And if you fire and you're going to be paying him seven years not to coach and this man has been a miserable failure since 2003 they missed the playoffs. Over seven and nine the following year after that victory, so it was so he you know, this guy's worse in the New York Jets coach. You know what, Come on. He's not worse than Adam Gates was taking that team and they were seven and nine last year, and they for them. It was the hot streak at the end, but they have one where one or two wins this season for Jon Gruden. Here's the thing. He's not a fraud. He's not a great coach, though. You look at that team. He's done a decent job. They have some young talent there, so it's not like they're devoid. Of things, but rugs doesn't look great. He's okay as a rookie, but he's clearly not stellar, and they reach to get him so they're gonna have to deal with those consequences. But the contract is in his fault. That's a Mark Davis issue and so you know, they need a defensive coach. He hasn't been able to hire defensive coach and that's really what's been the thing that killed him and Alan. I appreciate it but groans more of an offensive guy. Ruining the quarterback club, right like that's the room that he ran. That's why he was always in the boot spider. Why banana? Whether it was spider to y banana. That's it. So groans. An offensive guy is growing. The greatest coach ever know. Is he the worst coach ever know? Is he going to get fired after this year? No. So he's going to get a little more time, but at some point it is going to be a question of okay. Does he actually deserve his job or are they keeping him around because of the contract when they signed him? Here's the thing. How many people I mean, even good coaches, pretty good coaches. Would you really feel comfortable giving a 10 year contract to you don't have to do that. The thing is, and for Gruden, this is credit to him. He looks at the whole thing he goes. Okay, well, I'm in the booth and I'm making good money to be in the booth and I'm comfortable here and I've been out of league for a number of years. It's not like I just got out I'm doing the booth is a film because I couldn't get a job and I'm looking to get back in it. Get out. He was always interested in his name was going around from time to time. It was like, OK, It's never gonna happen and just people just keep floating grew in the flow. Gruden. It seems like he had pretty high demands, and Mark Davis was willing to meet him. So for him the leverage that I can't blame Jon Gruden. Forgetting the 10 year deal. I blame Mark Davis. You don't give out a 10 year contract to anybody. They just gave out a 10 year contract of Patrick Mahomes. That's a mistake. It's a 10 year deal. He's a quarterback and he's the greatest quarterback I've ever seen..

San Francisco Chronicle Sports - Spoken Edition
Raiders fans, twice abandoned, earn notorious honor
"You're listening to the spoken edition of the San Francisco Chronicle. Raiders fans twice abandoned deserve much better by an Killian. Congratulations raiders fans. It's official. Now, you are the most screwed over fans in American sports. Oh, sure. Others have vied for the title in the past Baltimore had a pity party. For retiring. Cleveland felt abandoned shame with Houston old time New Yorker is still like to talk about when two of their baseball teams laughed Seattle. Still would like an NBA team. Thank you very much. But nobody has it as bad as Oakland Raiders fans screwed over not by one but two generations of the same family, though, that's relatively old news. Mark Davis announced he was going to Las Vegas in March twenty seventeen this week has served only to emphasize the pathetic situation faced by some of the greatest fans in sports history. It looks like Christmas Eve will be the final home game of the Oakland Raiders. The last hurrah for the Oakland fans who. Who have been treated like dirt abandoned twice loyalty? Taken for granted served a terrible product from most of the past two decades duped into believing. There could be a winning farewell tour in Oakland until Jon Gruden arrived and tore down the team. And now, it looks like there might not even be another season to say goodbye, you can blame the city of Oakland for filing the lawsuit against the team this week, and forcing the raiders hand or you can blame Davis and his minions for pulling a tentative agreement to play in Oakland in twenty nineteen off the table in the wake of the lawsuit or you can blame the NFL which has been using Oakland as a pawn for years. What you can't do is blame the fans they've taken it and taken it and taken it. And now they're losing their team. Again. Many of these fans already have lived through this on game days. The Coliseum is full of twice jilted fans. Many of whom have passed on their abandonment issues to a second generation they. Had their hearts ripped out in nineteen eighty two when the team moved to Los Angeles when the team came back in nineteen ninety-five many of those fans despite having sworn off the silver and black came back for their loyalty. They've received just four winning seasons four playoff wins. And a prolonged middle finger if the raiders had been truly interested in staying in the bay area and this goes back to the late Al Davis. They should've negotiated with the forty Niners to build one super stadium to house both teams. That's the only logical proven solution for two NFL teams in the same arket. But Al Davis was opposed and his son inherited that position, which is ridiculous. You think the giants and the jets like each other? No, but they both belong in a New York market just like the forty Niners and the raiders both belong in the bay area. Where will the raiders play next year? Who knows the university of Nevada in Reno is tossed around as a real possibility. That's where the raiders. Is reportedly planned to take their training camp. Once they are the Las Vegas raiders. The raiders could go to UNLV for a year. But that would dilute their glittery arrival in the Vegas market in twenty twenty. Could they go to San Diego for year? Bizarre. San Antonio one of their previous flirtation cities. Also, weird Levi's that would only serve to underscore. How stupid it is that the two teams didn't find a compromise stadium years ago? Cal now Stanford unlikely though the amount of remaining fans might be small enough next year to easily fit into fifty thousand seat Stanford Stadium. Of course, Oakland remains a possibility probably the most likely solution. And how pleasant that would be a year of nasty acrimonious partnership in a building full of dead mice overflowing sewage. And faulty x Ray machines Pittsburgh quarterback. Ben Rothlisberger said the ancient x Ray machines in Oakland didn't work well enough Sunday, which is why his return to the game. Was delayed after a rib injury wherever the raiders play. Their fan base is sure to shrink the enthusiasm was sucked out of this season before it even began because of the trade of Khalil Mack to Chicago the investment in season tickets is too much for so little in return on Sunday. Despite the influx of Pittsburgh fans. The parking lot wasn't quite as crowded for tailgating as it's been in the past. But it was still a great scene generations of fans who've made the drive for years, not only from all over the East Bay. But also, the central valley and farther to play music and grill and hang out and talk raiders. This is our real game one man who's been coming for years said as he poured bourbon for his friends. This is what I'll miss for the most screwed over fans in sports. They were having a pretty good time.
