"Hours away from White Sox pregame as the White Sox wrap up the series with Cleveland and Lucas Giolito going today of them Exactly, Zach. Yeah, I know. I'm tired of the Indians. It's It's not like last year where you had on Lee played the Central that you can play other teams. It'll happen. Eventually, the Reds. They're playing the Cubs. The Cubs are playing the Reds in Cincinnati. The White Sox go to Cincinnati after today, and they play the Reds Tuesday and Wednesday. Then they have another day off and they play. Kansas City, and then they have another day off. The White Sox starting tomorrow, have three days off in the next eight and then after that they play 10 games in nine days. So it's like a really weird schedule is so they'll get a lot of time off that Lance Lynn, who started yesterday and went five innings, will likely not pitch again till next Saturday. Because you know, one of them in the game. Yeah, The lineups are out for the White Sox and say you're ready to take on the Indians Exact. Please act at shortstop. It's Tim Anderson. And Louise Roberts center. Moncada is playing third. Hitting third at first base is Jose Bre. You hitting fourth? The D H You're mean Mercedes struck out a couple times looking bad. That's got to stop 28 year old. You can't be doing that. He's hitting fifth. Zach Collins behind the plate. That makes me happy. There was a pitch yesterday just went back to the screen. Has body anytime you want to catch the ball to me. I don't know if he touched it or not. I was listening to it on the radio. Hey, did von is in left field? Then you have Lori Garcia and right. And at second base is Nick. Magical. Your starting pitcher is Lucas Giolito, and I saw somebody had the stats of how well Lory Garcia has actually done over the last couple of games. Hey, was struggling big time. Ah, lot of White Sox fans. Not real happy. I'm looking here, Someone just said Nick magical career against right handed hitters. 3 28 Larry Garcia career against right handed hitters to 41. But Laura Garcia actually drove in a couple runs yesterday, drove in three runs. He had a bunch of RB eyes and the his two previous games before that, so he's there. But the question for White Sox fans is how how do you think that Tony LaRussa return as skipper of the white taxes doing 3123323776? No. Some White Sox fans were upset earlier in the week when he left Lucas Giolito out there and she lied. All got beat the satchel winning 2 to 1. And then all of a sudden next thing, you know, they're losing 5 to 2 in the sacks lose Giolito said afterwards he was it was out of gas. Something your manager's probably know. Um, but he said, Listen, I went out there was my job to shut him down. He didn't do it and his crew, I think 314 pitches after he'd given up the lead. He's still through a couple more pitches. No White Sox fans were a little upset with that. How How are your thoughts about LaRussa so far this this this year? You know? He's been really messing with line up a lot. And I know why you have injuries were trying to work around this and and get. I mean Garcia, being back in his bat has been hot. Yeah, it looked like Eton whacked his knee against the trying to catch a falling ball. Foul ball yesterday banged up. He had a game that he was suspended, so I know what he's doing that but sometimes it seems like he's messing around a little too much. Then again, you know we've gotten some results, and I think he's settling in. So I give him a B. Louis's Robert Lewis Roberts playing center field and hitting second today. Latter times He's been hitting seventh and a lot of people even back to last year, Frank Thomas, as Higgins said, You gotta move Robert up in the order, and now he's got Robert Moncada and the Bre you right after Tim Anderson so nice, Nice top four in the lineup, but he doesn't leave it that way. He does it usually at certain times and It's not. You know, You got a right handed pitcher going in, Jack, Please act today and you still are going with Robert Number two, so because he is not in the lineup. I guess that makes sense. But we'll see. And I have to say I've been I questioned. It is the start of the season. I thought Louise Robert was going to struggle so far, not so much. Louise Robert even one from four yesterday's hitting 309. So he's after when I start. He did. He did. Look, I know yesterday was really windy. There were a couple balls he went got in the gaps. He looked awkward doing it because it was windy. Maybe. Maybe that was the case. I don't know was windy by you not by me. But I know what the ballpark counter said You could see a lot of the balls swirling in the wind. It was a tough day to play with. The wind was blowing everywhere. I don't live anywhere near there. But the wind was terrible by me. Yeah, usually in open spaces and e gotta be honest. It wasn't very windy in my basement when I got home. That's right. When I got home. I know it was 80 degrees. Yesterday, I was in my basement watching baseball and stuff like that. So I wasn't I wasn't seeing Outside, so it didn't matter how windy it was, and I have the windows open last night. It was. It was wonderful Nice breeze blowing in and everything. So the White Sox looking to get the serious when they dropped the first game of the serious with the Indians. They win yesterday. 73 year thoughts on the sax your thoughts on Tony LaRussa as the skipper. It's funny because you quote you It's like this with all managers. You question things that they do that don't work out, but you rarely give them praise for things they do that do work out. I guess the day that is life. Yeah, well, it's like Tom Waddle used to have the line out out, botched the line, so But he says, basically, you don't get credit for not doing drugs, okay? Right? Yeah. You don't get credit your those who thinks you're supposed to do so A lot of people say Lisa marry expected to do you're expected to have success. So unless it's wild success, you're not getting the props you should write..

"Talking quarterbacks. That's gonna be the hot topic until we find out who's playing quarterback for the Bears this year. Want to persuade topic here? Weren't you the guy, though that honestly and again I'm not. I think you're you and I are more on this on the same page than I Than I initially thought. We were going to be on this, but would you the guy that was bemoaning playing Mitch and meaningless games down the stretch? Because it was only going to mean you're going to draft lower than you need to draft The same. That's the same scenario that your presentation will lead to know. I was okay with playing next time I was with you on that you won't you were say, Look, it's time to go to met. You convinced me on that. Well, he would know the way he wouldn't have a better chance, right? I was rooting for losses after six losses in a row. Well, right where I was because of being in no man's okay. But my point is, is like if you would not played, Mitch, you probably would have lost more games and you wouldn't be drafting 20. You would've been drafting higher. So for all of the people out there, which I thought at one point maybe you were, as you just described you change your mind if you're looking for the more optimal draft pick. It ain't bringing in a guy that could help you win a couple more games to make you wait. Nate versus six and 10 or five and 11. They're going to try and win. Okay, They're going to try and win. These jobs are Huh? This is about fun with you isn't no. Well, well, well, Look, I have a couple of choices the way this is going down. I want to Shawn Watson. I know the bears probably don't have what it takes to get to Shawn Watson. A. We don't know what the taxes they're going to do. They're unpredictable. They're telling people We're not trading him. So now they're not accepting offers. As of now, do you wait them out. Maybe if I were the Jets, and I had a ton of stuff that you're willing to give up, the bears don't have that They're headlining a package with pick 20. So it already put you like 10th. I'm less. Okay. So then when I when I was a fan, look to them and say I can't get Cannot get Watson. I am scared blank, Liss. Because I think they're so desperate. They're going to give up too much for someone who's going to continue to put you in No man's land, whoever they're gonna land. You're gonna you're gonna be the next general manager will be not playing with a full deck because your current general manager gave up too much for whoever's left over in this market. The over. It's what drives me. Crazy Waddle. You know, this is one of my one of the things I stand for in football over paying middle of the road quarterbacks. I'm not saying they stink. I'm saying they're not worth the money and when you're giving up draft compensation And you're paying them a high cost in a year where the caps going down, I'd rather instead of being in no man's land with left less traffic picks. I'd rather sign a guy for cheap who could make things fun. And you can build the rest of your line and be in no man's land that way. And when the new GM coming Zen, then he still has his full dad. I know I'm just like I don't know how much fun I'm going to have watching another 18 8 season. I'm not gonna have fun. Either way, You're just selling me It's going to be more fun watching a bearded guy do it. Versus somebody without the beer and the dude we're headed for 79 next year. You know this, right? Of course, the matter no matter who they pull the trigger with if they land, Donald if they land went that they land car, Tyler a land, Mary. They're there, right, So I'd rather do it for cheap. Look, Let's not put us behind the eight ball when the new GM comes in, that's all I'm saying. Some fun She's having tonight. How much is Fitz gonna cost me? How much? How much can you be more specific? No, I'm not his agent. I don't know. I don't know. What are you willing to sign him to? I'll pay him seven million a year. That's seven million. The salary caps going down. I could use that seven million and give it to him. You wanna pick Carson wins 24 million and give up multiple well, time out. Don't put that Carson Wentz stink on me. You know, That's not what I want. You know, That's not what I want. I'm saying you could take that extra seven million. Want to give to Mr Fun guy? Give that to Alan Robinson to keep him around. It just rolled. Tyler Bray out there now. You're okay. So why does says Tyler Bray? I'm saying fits, man. I'm saying tell you get Manfred got $8 million last year. I don't want to give him $8 million next year. It's better than the alternative. No, it's not. Yes. No, it's not. No, it's not. Would you rather have fits given him eight million and it's going to give you the jollies The football jollies on Saturday and again. This isn't a shot it fit. I think Fitz is an outstanding backup quarterback for a team that need that that has It's good playoff and entitle aspirations. That ain't us. So you want to give eight million to a guy that's gonna make your Sundays a little more fun? And maybe when you want her to mortgage aims, which means you're in 20th pick in the first round. Hell again as opposed. I'm trying to sell. Are you pitching us? Tanking is your best option? What is Tom Waddle telling us? The best option is in response to Ryan Fitzpatrick? Yes. Instead of Ryan Fitzpatrick. I'd rather go with somebody. That cost me last and would probably lead to a much higher draft. Pick the following year. Right? Like you're fun on Sundays. Come over to my house. We'll drink until we're blind drunk. We'll have fun. We'll do it every I mean, Well, we can prank calls. Some people will play scrambling. We could do all that work just saying like, if you want fun on Sunday, come over to the house will find fun. I want to pick out a high. I wanna hire draft pick and we'll spend less money for it. That's all. Yeah, I'm with model. I think, Sylvie, this is like if we're still in the bar, right and the lights turn on and you're chasing the will of the beast around the bar you're trying to. You're trying to kit right like that's the the copyright Watts. Watson is the hottest Person in the bar, right? And you're old now had no shot watching left it 10. It's going to a better war. But I'm okay with waiting out to see if Watson will go with me at some point. I'll come back a different day. It's fine. I got it. Okay. I'll come back a different day, so they keep chasing the world the beast around you. You do you man, That's you. You and you in a delicate talk me into this. That look okay. Watson is worth waiting out. You're probably not going to get him. Worth waiting out. So let's wait. Let's not rush to any of these overpays and then let's see who's left in the bar in whenever Watson thing is song when I'm willing for that. What?

Mike in Norwood Park. You're on yesterday's and what's up, Mikey? How's it going, Guys? We're good. Yeah, I've been listening and I'm taking a little bit away from what? Both you guys are saying and I'm just so tired as a franchise, in my opinion, being so desperate man. Just let next year play out, and the worst part about it is With this whole event is that we have a pretty decent defense. And it seems like we're just wasting away because I don't want to have to go get somebody that we think might be the answer. We need somebody that we pick up and we think as a franchise This is going to be the guy and I called you guys. When Mitch should Boesky was drafted. And I had.

"The tip there, Jim. Yeah, it wasn't enough. Oh, no. Oh, protection when? What is the cry experience with Tony Rome? Oh, I know that you were friendly commentator with me black. I know where black wasp. Now I know where you're at. Where is the rest of the football consuming television consuming. Audience out there on in terms of what is the consensus on Rome. Oh, out there. I think most people he will still like him. Yes. There's still some fun with Tony Romo's I'm not totally on blacks bandwagon, but I have been exposed now. My ears perk up more. And Emling. Hmm. This is interesting. You know that my my opinion on it wouldn't be so fierce. If he didn't when he started broadcasting games If he joined the like D team on CBS or and, you know, like, did some work and then actually got up to that spot. I think I would have a different Indian baroness strength. Well, yeah. I mean, he got paid how much you guys were just talking about how much he makes he didn't really prove anything. You showed up one Sunday called correctly a couple of plays before they happen, which I would imagine any quarterback. We played recently could use Yeah, And then he became the highest priced analysts and all football. It's like, come on. There are guys who are out there swears good. Charles Davis is good. There are guys all over the place who are really good. Tom Waddle really good at this and Rollo just shows up, and Kris Jensen just won his seventh Super Bowl, read Jim Jim. And then my home's comes back. 10 seconds later was going home is just what You know it's gonna happen. Don't be shocked If Philip Rivers is in the Monday night Booth all shocks. We've talked about that before you do some work first. That's all I ask. What's so yes, there are a couple of other stories to get to real quick. I believe LeBron had some pretty interesting comments about the MBA's announcement that there will be an All Star game. Do we have that Chris? Well, Chris Really good actress. LeBron doesn't want it. I have zero energy and zero excitement about an All Star game this year. You know, I don't even understand why we're having an All Star game. But it's the agreement that the Players association and lead came about. Um, you know, short offseason for myself and my teammates with 71 days and then come into the season. You know, we were told that we were not having all Star game. So we had a nice little break five days from the 15 attempt. You know when opportunity for me to kind of recalibrate for the second half of the season, my teammates as well some of the guys in the league and Then they throw all Star game on us like this, And it just breaks that all the way up. So, um, pretty much this kind of a slap in the face on, you know, we're also still dealing with it with a pandemic. We're still dealing with everything that's been going on and we're gonna bring the whole league and tow one city That's open. You know, obviously depend. Emma has absolutely nothing to do with it at this point. When it comes to that weekend. Obviously, guys, you see, I'm not very happy about it, but it's out of my hands on you and I'll be there. If I'm selected, I'll be there physically but not mentally. The MBA in the NBA Players Association, finalizing details on health and safety protocols that will govern the All Star participants and those players dispersing for the league's march 5th through 10th break. It is about money, right guys, I mean like this is an opportunity for the league. To make money and a lot of them. Money is then split in a certain percentage of pushed into the players. Pool of revenue. Right means there's money. I mean, like, so If you want, LeBron may not need it. How old Saxon had this, He said this to a couple of days ago like there, There's just a belief with some players that if they cared about the health, they would not have it. That it's just risky for rain and exhibition game to be played. All the other All Star Games have been canceled, right Major league baseball that was outdoors. The Pro Bowl was canceled. But how I I know why the MBA wants that The NBA wants it because it's a there's a television partner, and it's in the middle of no football going on. Well, they couldn't shove it down the throats of the players. Collectively, this is half has to be something that was there could be bargained for. So it's already bargain fright. Yeah, so I don't know. The other big story of this is today. The Cubs have no Trevor power what has signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers, and he's set to be major League baseball's top earner in 2021 2022. About this deal with the Dodgers three years $102 million has opt outs after years one and two, according to Jeff Passan, Our buddy Power said to make 40 million this year 45 million next year. Mm. And overpaid for the short term suited the Cubs. They claimed an infielder off of waivers or something, pal Contra right from Esso going every move. Take that Dodgers It's twofold. It's It's how to the Dodgers and Cardinals and Brewers have money to do stuff and the Cubs don't but then they also don't forget that the other question is. Have the Sox done enough? When you look at what the Dodgers have done it as world serious champion, signing the best pitcher out there to an already awesome pitching staff, and when you look at what the Padres have done, What who they've traded for in the last year. Have, though I ask Sox fans have the sacks done enough. Just signed Lucroy to a minor league deal. Yeah. I mean, I look, they made some moves. Hendricks was a really good move. But there's nothing like what the Padres and the Dodgers have done. Nuke They have money. You don't team's gonna stay well, the sacks of money don't the sacks of money. Yeah, I think actually, their payroll this year as we discussed earlier in the week is lower its projected to be lower this year than it was last year, right? Yeah. Can I give a promotional thing that if you're not following es at ESPN white socks on Twitter do so now. Lennon, J. D did their first Uh, their first broadcast together, and it's on Lee available on ESPN White socks. So that's the new Twitter handle is where the new home of the White Sox that the new Twitter handle for all news involving the White Sox and our broadcasts and great original content that you'll be getting all year round.

What are they gonna do? Prove that I didn't read the books? How you gonna prove that I didn't read it, But you read a lot of books. Not only did I read a ton of books, I'll come. I'll come clean.

Oh, whether we get Pizza Hut! Come on now. I don't remember. I think it's almost exactly a year ago. A year ago in three days in the Miami airport, coming home from the Super Bowl, we were starting today and all that, and I haven't had pizza hut in years and I used to love it and we got a bunch of personal pan pizzas. At the Miami airport. Pizza Hut. Living like kings was the only thing that was opened in our terminal cause the terminals were so far apart that crease that greasy crossed, are you guys so I don't know if you're Hold firm that there is a thing in this world called Rescue Pizza. It's the slice that brings you back during a night out on the town. It's the slice that brings you back the morning after kind of thing. It's the slice today that holds you together during a long delay in an airport. You guys had a rescue slice that day after O just lights. We have pizzas. Yeah, that's perfect is what it is, but I'm like you're gonna So all I have to do is go home and quote, read books and fill this out. And I get a free pizza. Yeah, and she's like, Yeah, but you got to read the books. Okay? Sure. Yeah. OK quiz. No quiz. All right. Cool. I waited until college to not read the books in the language that I already knew to get my English degree. So that was real meaningful for May. Pizza Hut is testing drone delivery in Israel drones may soon be deployed to bring your order to a delivery driver or to your door instead of a delivery driver. Throat techno warm Can I assume it will? That's so This was my question. How? How warm is it and tell Aviv right now, why are they testing this in a place? Right? I mean, it's It's warmer there than it is here, right? Yes, yes, For sure, Like much former. Well, unless it ever get cold. Must the drone is attached to the heated bag? Then the heated bags like the drone and heated bag. Come down. You take the pizza out of the bag, and then the drone holding the heated bag, then goes back to the hut. I dig it. I dig it. Apparently the washing journals writing the pizza will use the drones to drop multiple orders at a government approved landing zone, such as parking lot spaces. And then you will have two drivers than delivery drivers will handle the last leg of the journey to get those pizzas to actual customers. Sounds like a complicated too much too much. This is just just how they're getting started. This is getting the people with the ground, right? You know what they're doing? They're taking away as someone who used to deliver pizzas. They are taking away my hard earned my Ligeti's took up a job because what do you do it? You don't think that I can drive in from the hut to the house.

"Conversation with Michael Wilbon continues in a week ago, my, but we were all optimistic about the Bulls. Then they went out on that Friday, and they went into Charlotte, and they want a pretty good game. That was a a team that was playing well. They went on the road, and they want even though, that they didn't have a full roster, and then I was so excited for the Laker game. And in the last couple, including the Lakers and then against Boston. They were completely outclassed, and a lot of their core pieces haven't passed the eye test and now Wendell Carter is out for a month. Have you changed on the optimism with the Bulls? What happened? It is less. There's less of it. But what? I'm optimistic about it to the improvement of the people who are out there, including looking at Lori Market and Stats, Um And they're up. Maybe God is not as much as I'd like to see him. I believe in a lineup. Um, there's there's zero question Exactly V is a better player all around all around. I mean, defense is improved. I mean stuff like Shaq selection. His offensive efficiency all better. Um, I mean, nobody's ready to make you know, all MBA, but my whole thing was at the beginning. The season is in. I reiterated with you later, Sylvie was how much better is each one of these guys? Week by week. I'm looking for in incremental improvement. The window. Carter thing is disappointing because yet again, he's injured issues. You can't I mean at that position. You need a big, strong, tough, durable dudes who could be on the floor and he can't beat Tennessee to be able to be on the floor. Um, and I don't know what to make of market. And yet he's better than he's been the last two years. Not as good as he was his rookie year. In terms of what we were expecting performance relative to expectations will be white. Though Michael could be white sat him down games, which is to be expected, probably from a second year, Guys. That's a great game, too. He had those really good games when they won. Wanna row to get back to 500. You know, he was really good then, and it has been turned over games and games when he was just just seemed to be not engaged or less engaged, only grown accustomed to him being and I think all the stuff that's a workout. I didn't take the bull submit to playoffs. I want to see the improvement from them. I wanted to be competitive, you know, even in the game the other night against Boston. Um, that was a good spot today. They they got they every time they pulled close. Boston just pulled away, Which is what Boston ought to do. Boss is a threat to win the Eastern Conference. The Bulls are threat to maybe finished 10th. So the Celtics and Lakers Our class ahead. We know that you're right. So we we said they looked out class because I work now, as they move into back into some of these other games against teams, they ought to be more competitive against one of the Bulls next couple of games. They play tomorrow. Right there Back at it Tomorrow. Let me see who they have. Is that the Grizzlies saddle? What? What is that guy's a union with sample. Not only Portland, and then the Knicks twice, right portal. Okay, look, I mean, that's that's so You know what you want to win two out of those three Portland they wouldn't be able to be probably brought. You know Portland's got some guys out. And so that sort of helps. The bull situation is Portland. Look, maybe Portland once already. Actually, they went out. They want out in Portland. You know? And so speaking, McCollum is not playing. He's not for a few more weeks, I guess and the Knicks the Knicks are better. You know, Tibbs is you know kids is dying when that both those games The Bulls got a bill to win one of those games against the Knicks. So they're about Justino did. They're about the same. Neither one of them both of looking for that incremental improvement I'm talking about, so I'm not down on them. I'm not as high as I was a week ago. Like I was wondering if you could help me with little issue have been having here. Um, I'm 35. I'm not Tom Waddle on Connor filling in today and 35 years old. I've I've seen a lot of Tom Brady play. Um, I am suffering from a thing. I'm terming Tom Brady fatigue. I don't I don't like that. I have it and I know I'm probably wrong for having enough give to anybody. But but I have it and I can't. Have you ever had anything like this. What should we do about it? Sure. You just gonna You know what? Actually, I kind of turned around when I have to pee from a great player, and I haven't had that much of it because a lot of great players in the last 40 years in You know, football, basketball, baseball and even a lot of the NHL has seen in person. I saw it in person, and I got to listen to them. And I got to have some sort of professional working understanding relationship on the you know in that I'd had with a few people and I just said okay. I'm not going to get to see this very much. If ever again. I'm going. I'm going to force myself to appreciate it. Tom Brady is one of them. I got Brady fatigue. You're not the only one. I have bred far fatigue. Um I I hear you, But Brady, you will not, You know, one thing I know I'm old enough to know there's so much all of you. I'm old enough to know that when that person goes, you're going to Miss him. Yeah, I know athlete is I just can't look at this point. I was telling Sylvia this the other day. At this point, I'm I feel myself more interested. In watching the next class. So to speak. Patrick Mahomes go chase greatness than I am the continuation of greatness, and I don't like that about where that the world we live in. Now. Everybody wants to have the next great thing on their lap that day, so they can say all you he's the goat because he's playing now So I've got a millennial problem bided saying Yes, fight it. Don't look, don't look and read. Don't look at and read all the crap before the game. Don't ignore.

"E learned something last week. Brian when I was working with Tyler, Rocky and Mark Xander on Sunday, um, because I could not figure out why exactly Patrick. The home was was got up woozy because he didn't get hit in the head. But he didn't his head didn't his helmet didn't hit the ground. But what exactly tiling? What was that? What was it called again? I can't remember. The exact name of Xander knows it, but he kind of got choked out. That's kind of what it was, and you saw him get up and he goes kind of limp right away. But they thought it could have been a compression her for a while. And I love I love the story, Tyler that He was smart enough or with enough they laid on the field knowing that any woodsman needs some time to warm up and they're going for it on fourth down, So he told the trainer Don't know. Don't don't give me up right away. Give me give me some time. But more importantly, give Chad Henny sometimes we're gold for it. I mean, the thing that scared me with that whole situation is he's going downstairs like he is running down the stairs. I know. I was like, Okay, A minute ago, This guy had a hard time standing up, and now he's running through the tunnel. Kind of like Lamar Jackson did weeks ago when we found that it was probably more than Just ahead problem when Jimmy Graham did his last play with maybe with the first. Yes, just kept on going, But it s his foot injury, but he did practice the other day. I know that client. Edwards hilarious, practiced three days this week, So the odds are he'll be there. He had a tremendous day, running the ball against Buffalo earlier in the season. Um, I'm not sure if he's gonna be ready to carry the load, like he did earlier in the year, but this one should be a good one, too. And Kansas City. I know they had fans. They had quite a few fans last week. The Packers had I think, 8600. They're gonna have similar amount for that. And I think I saw for the Super Bowl. They're gonna have 24,000. A good thing. And the great thing is that what 7000 whatever 1st 1st line responders and workers and right people, health care workers and, you know, so in three tickets, I mean, they're around, I guess in the NFL, so that's terrific. Why they did that up in Green Bay, too, because what they offered it with they had 6500 season ticket holders. Had a chance to get tickets and then they had first responders with almost 2000 of them. So they're the 8600 people. And it was amazing when they showed the overhead shot because it was the way it looked. They had it. They were perfectly like, six. You know, two rows apart from each other and maybe the same role. But you know, halfway down the road with everything else and from overhead, you could really tell that The NFL. The Packers even can't say you're a really good job, socially distancing as much as possible and still getting fans in the stands. And you know the other games during the course of the season, where one thing But watching these playoff games you need something you need some Some of some fans in the stands, and you don't need Fox just pumping up the volume of the noise and everything else when they don't know the virtual fans to lease that's gone. Yeah, it was ever baseball. Yeah, You see the ball go into the stands on a home run, and you have no idea how far it went because it goes into the abyss of work little fans. Yeah, absolutely Crazy. What Your what your thoughts of the Chiefs game Because it's you know, if he's good, he's healthy, you know, and and their defense is actually been very opportunistic. Most of the season. But you know Buffalo, I can I can see Josh Allen throwing the ball away a few times. Well, I mean, when you look at it to, uh, that buffalo defense was the best in the league for a while. They're in the season. Right s O I again. The Pat Mahomes told doesn't people are talking enough about that? He was struggling with that before he got the whatever that was choked out. Tyler, Right S O. E. He's playing, I get it and he's cleared to play. I get it and he's a world talent. I get there. One hit away from Chad, Henny and, you know good luck. Andy Reid pulled it off last week, but I'm not so sure you could pull it off again. Yeah, they they've got they've got weapons. We talk about the weapons the Packers have. I mean, Kansas City. Seems they have even more. I don't Sammy Watkins didn't play last week. But now they're getting Edward's letter back and s O. The more weapons they have. Better, obviously for Patrick Mahomes, So it's gonna be fun and it just the games are going to be fun, And that's what I'm looking forward to. My money would be on the bills. I wouldn't take the 3.5 with Tom Brady because that just seems too generous. But I would take something on the bills. And maybe it will some on the morning line. I think the bills Might pull that one off. I think you gotta listen to Brian because he's hitting on everything these days. So when he got the Pegasus today, Uh, still working on that. But the early pick five was very, very nice for me. There you go. There you go. Yes, so that it before the show on just checked on it. And, yeah, we'll be the bankroll got a little larger for the NFL tomorrow. That's a good thing You always like playing with other people's money. Well, it's your money once you win, But I mean, you know, Yeah. Um, we haven't talked much about it, but The dish on watching thing. People. I know I don't wanna live, so we were talking about it a lot. This week. Sylvie thinks whatever you can do to get a discount watching you have to do and Tom Waddle seem to be the levelheaded member of that group. Said. You can't give up. Multiple number ones. You've gotto still build a team through the draft. You can't be doing this and I'm looking at it. You gave up picks for, um, you know, for true Boesky gave up picks for Khalil Mack. You can't do that now. Granted, people will say, Well, they screw the picks up anyway. That's true, but the last couple of years he's been able to pick 2nd 3rd 4th round guys on those are the guys that are actually making your team now, But what do you think you have this? I mean, okay, so he ultimately is going to say where he wants to go. So whatever the whatever deals are on the table, he's got the no trade in his pocket. And try again. I don't want to go to the barest because as you said, OK, it's great. You guys gonna be flush with draft picks and I will be here and I'm gonna be running from my life in Chicago because they don't have anyone to throw too If you know if you don't have Robinson in the fold. And if you do, that's pretty much all you have. But you know, your offensive line needs help. So if I'm just John Watson, why necessarily do what I want to come here. And you know, instead of Miami or New York, or wherever If you make it there, you can make it anywhere. I've heard that I am, But so I and this whole side story of well is he still ticked off of the bears of why would he come here after they were admitting the biggest mistake Ryan face ever can make. I mean, you know is he going to say OK, I accept your apology and I'll come help you win a Super Bowl, But I'm with Tom. You give away all that collateral. Good luck. I don't know how you and you're up against the salary cap. I don't know how you're gonna put it put together a team that could you know you might what they lose five games in the division there. Five games back a Green Bay. Yeah, don't be a lot closer. But does that put him over the hump in the next couple years. Tito win the division. I don't think so. Right? Because you're not just giving up number one picks. Yeah. So you have to give up number two's also, if you're gonna make a deal that big to get a guy like him. And you don't have a quarterback to sign them, right? Yeah..

"Yes. Are we learning evolving? Yes. Shaking my head? No, Not really. That's yes. Right Pace talking the other day at the press conference, the Bears end of the season press conference with McCaskey and Ted Phillips and Maggie and Pace taking her calls. 3123323776 the one thing that that McCaskey. George McCaskey brought up the other day, and I know You know it was funny, Tom Waddell said after the interview goes. He's case here. He's rip premier criticizing me. But he did say he used Waddle is an example. I heard that. Yeah, he said. When Tom Waddle got out of sport, are you out of football in the broadcast, he struggled a little bit. And But look at him now, didn't you May? I don't know. I don't know. Maybe I didn't start so much making that reference. I get what he's trying to do, but There was no obvious struggle. So what did that What you want picking him out, right? What could it could have been his? Listen every job every job you're in. You'll get better as you go along, too, with that job. Which is fine for a broadcaster. Or for someone who works in sales. Okay, you're that's right. You get back. Well, c p A. You make enough problem with the numbers. You're you could be alright. Trouble do some low level tax returns for right. You get to the past something else. Next thing you know, you work for a big corporation. When you're a general manager for a football team, you don't have the Luxury toe. Learn job. No, you've got to be like this. That's why there's assistant coaches and then the assistant learns, and he becomes a head coach Matt Maggie. You would hope would be. Was it assistant long enough, and he learned enough that he could be a head coach. Now he seems to do a lot of the things that head coach is supposed to do. Players don't seem to quit. Quit Adam. They play for him. They play hard for him. They seem to like him. But he doesn't seem to have it all together when it comes to play calling. They brought man Maggie because he was the genius and I think sometimes mostly, Yeah, I think sometimes he tries to prove to everybody how smart around in his way, and that's not working for Ryan Pace. I don't know. He's still working at his profession is still learning. He's learning and growing. You know the one thing about Ryan In that press conference, he warned us about the word collaboration. That's the only thing I got from him. He said. You'll hear this word a lot. That's the on Lee thing I got from he was a wrong We heard the word alive, was it We heard the word quite often, 3123323776, but you wanted to play something. You know, um In Chicago sports born and raised here, you may agree with me. Some may not, but I think overall, we've appreciated passion were passionate his fans and we appreciate appreciate passion from our coaches and our players, right? Yeah. And I heard none of that in that press conference, And I think I was listening. Tolo Captain hoodie on Thursday. This is the way I think I would have wanted it to go. That was so disgusting yesterday that you literally would have had to get those four guys in a room and say, OK, how can we embarrass ourselves the most Let's absolutely do what we did yesterday. It is a garbage organization that has no concept of you. The fan doesn't care about you the fan unless you stop watching their product and buying their jerseys and wearing their hats and caring what the hell goes on up there? What they did yesterday was a direct shot at you the fan going we don't give a flying rip that you want change. We don't care. We're all employed. That's all that matters. You have bad culture. Admit it. Be honest, but you didn't have the guts to do it. That's the passion that we're missing. Obviously, we all have that passion. But then cap went on to say Here's how it should've went and and I'll paraphrase Okay, everybody, thank you for the coming to press conference. This sucks. We did not do what we were supposed to do. We are all This is all on us. And I'm telling you right now we're going to get this right. We're going to keep these gentlemen for another year. We have another year to make this right. We are going to do that. And then basically show us That they care because for me as a black Hawk fan, you know the mid two Thousands were horrible as they were and then and then, when Rocky took it, he walked right up to the stand, he said. We're going to treat you with respect. We are going to make sure you understand that we want to win. We're going to show you a proud and they said all those things. Then they did them. And that gave so many fans back and I remember those days when all the someone that started happening. Youth hockey blew up all around the suburbs, people were getting into Hajer. It was the return. That's what had to have happened. AST far as I'm concerned, is a fan, but Caskey had to take that tough stance and show us the passion because, he said Yes, it matters. It wasn't good enough. It wasn't but we didn't hear that. We didn't hear the passion. I think he was better when he was out with Waddell and Sylvie because he was a one on one thing, as opposed to talking to a big A big group of people. I thought when he did that he was He sounded a little bit better because he is. He is a passionate guy. He does want the team to succeed. Um And you know, even if they said what you said, and did it in a passionate way. I'm not sure that would have pacified many of the fans. No, no, no, I'm not saying that that would have taken care of everything, but it certainly would have made us feel a little better walking away from that press conference saying, Okay? We heard something there. Yeah, I mean, even if it's Bs give us something right, because instead, they sold us The six game losing streak was the was wasn't shining point for them because they're too another thing. There's like I'm proud of our players for not giving up. No, you pay them for not giving me Yes. You write the checks around proud. No, they're professional athletes. They should not give up. They never should get credit. For them, not giving up. Is that where we're at right now? In the NFL? I know that was that was terrible. 3123323776. What other thing before we get to the cause, and this came up yesterday, just happenstance. Because of the pandemic. And a lot of times, people will call the station and say, Listen, we the only way they're going to realize that the fans really are upset with the team is by not showing up. Well this year we you couldn't show up. But next year if it's open If you're a season ticket holder, and you didn't have to spend that money this year, that money was saved. You kept that money. You found other ways to enjoy and watch bears football. It was tough to enjoy a six game losing streak. Are you still going to say? But they didn't give up? Yeah. Are you still gonna want to take that money out of your pocket and by season tickets for the following year when they come back, or do you think all around football is to get well? Probably not all around football, but Because, you know, teams that were winning and playing well, you want to go back out to see him, But here in Chicago because of what they're putting out the field season ticket holders are you rethinking it? Because you want a whole season watching your team play without having to spend the big money and all that money, and it's like, Well, wait a minute. Maybe I don't need to do this. And maybe you had you were holding. You had a chance to say, Hey, this is that red zone Everyone's talking about. I never had a chance to watch this. This is awesome. Um, you also could have people over to your house and put the TV in the back yard and watch the games while using your own bathroom and.

"Yeah, it was interesting when McCaskey came out too interesting to me that when McCaskey came out, he did mention he said, Well, look, when Tom Waddle first got into broadcasting, he had some struggles will look at him now, and he got better. Well, yeah. He did, But there were a lot more opportunities for him to do things and go go places when you're the bears, and you're you're one of 30 to, um, you know, it's very difficult. This was George McCaskey the other day talking about Ryan and Matt coming back, and he mentioned a six game losing streak in everything. Give it a listen here on ESPN. 1000 Ryan and Man are men of character. They're both like Ted. Outstanding leaders. I've been most impressed with how well they collaborate. Was impressed with both of them this past season, especially during the six game losing streak. The fact that our players never gave up is a tribute to the players. It is also indicative of the type of players that Ryan acquires. Into the players regard for Matt as their head coach. Like Ted and I Ryan and Matt to have vigorous discussions. In the end. All four of us want what's best for the Bears? Are no egos. There are no other agendas. Mistake's been made. Yes. I think both Ryan and Matt are learning and growing in their roles. Before turning it over to Ted. I want to take a moment to tell Bears fans. We understand your frustration. We're frustrated, too. Would be a perfectly natural reaction to say Back up the truck. Major overhaul whatever you wanna.

"Sarah position is going to be Gafford and Carter unless they fall into this situation when they have to play marketing at the five But outside of that you have two positions. But you have, like four or five guys that yet the trying get Max minutes to and Temple I think has deserved his minutes, especially late in games. You could chew. He's a nice roll guy. Um, I don't want patch. I like what they're doing with Patrick Williams, where, When he's good, he plays and yesterday he started, but he didn't finish because it wasn't one of his better games. It was back to back nights. And and so he Otto Porter was out on the floor closing, but I want that you're saying that was the same for the Blazers game, too, If you if you know what's at the end of the Blazers game, it went to the vets and then the two guards. The front court. So is that young Porter and and Temple as your front court like that. I would imagine Donovan's going to do a lot of that, because he knows how to win games in the MBA. Right? You go to your veterans like You this kid Halliburton from Iowa State Waddle that we talked about the point guard. I didn't see the end of the game. I fell asleep, but I saw stretches and the kid was fantastic. It was amazing. In the fourth quarter. I'm still a Patrick Williams guy. I love the ceiling. I love the floor for Patrick Williams simulates the floor. All the people Yes, Michael All the people, though, who loved Halliburton and watched him a lot of Iowa State. Like I saw that firsthand yesterday, Boy, he was really good, not shy leader leading already. You know the errand Fox had believed that can early Patrick Williams on that front. I mean, that's just comes that that's reality. Sure, sure. Yeah, He's a point guard and he knows how to run the show. But he looked good yesterday. I don't have any buyer's remorse. So about Patrick Williams. I'm fine with listening. This is baby steps for me, and they're fun and entertaining and I enjoy watching them once again. That's in there, and they're being led competently. Yes, I wanted to play you a bite from Billy Donovan before I do that here. I want to get Indian Atlantic City's a big, bold span.

What's up, Andy? Hey, guys. How you doing? Good. Thanks. Happy New Year. Happy New Year to you too. So, Yeah, I'm all in on the bulls. I think they looked great. Uh, Kobe White is if we can get him to be just a little bit more consistent in his game. Him and Levine are going to be a dominant duo that I'm all in on Kobe White and Zach Levine. I don't want to see us get rid of lorry market and I think it's a little early. They've only played like three or four games about Laurie and you know, Yeah, they've looked pretty well, but Seem desperately needs like that third guy who can kind of shoot and score. I know Otto Porter Jr was kind of supposed to be that guy, and I like what he does. He plays hard, but I still think Lori can be that guy, so I wouldn't want to get rid of him. You were kind of saying, fellow. I would definitely not want to do that. Still the I do have a little bone to pick with you, though. Of course a couple weeks ago on this very same program you had. Tom Waddle had asked you Have exactly Dean went to the Lakers on I remember. I don't know the words for words, but you had basically said that Kyle Cozma was better than Zach Levin's. I just want to see if you wanted, you know. Maybe take that back or because who's missed ink? Kind of, you know, I don't remember that Congress. I don't remember it either Dollar Black Is anyone remind me because I was gonna call in like that day because I was like I cannot lose my lost me money Last year, Andy and the players I'm pretty sure the conversation went, Uh well, if you took that Glavine, he would be like, you know the third or fourth option on a good team. And why don't you ask if you put him on the Lakers? He'd be what the third option and then still be. You went while crews. MMA. I do remember that. I remember pieces of this conversation, and I do remember also believing. Like I'm not accuse my fan like I believe that like in this scenario that I allegedly Was talking about. I believe Zach Levine would be a more productive guiding Koosman could cost me money as well. 110% Zach Levine is way better than Kakuta. You think? I got one more thing. I'll leave you guys with all right online. I verse Northwestern. Tonight. Alright, align eye there they're going to. They're going to do it our state our team, So make sure you guys have tuned into that Goebbels Go online. I go bears on Sunday. Maybe we should take a gamble on tonight's game can't allow Allowed.

You may go every blue moon to these to these sports books, and I'm like, Yeah, that would be so cool. It is so cool bringing the sports book to my house. It is so cool, just sitting there and enjoying random guys. You want to get in the car and go drive to rivers and go sit in the sports book, not keep it have sit on my couch and have some drinks and bet on my phone. I still think there's a place for it, and I'm not going to say it's called Vegas but I love this. This is just it is if you do it responsibly and just don't do it.

Or have Tom Waddle as GM of the Bears? And my answer is you'd rather have changed the model play because hey, eh, eh? I know that Waddell does not have any. They want to GM. The Bears. And B. I would then lose out on working with him every day as a friend and a dollar. You sound as a friend who so league realized that if he's the GM, he's bringing Sylvie Me and you along. You know what?

Would I rather have waddle or pay the line? Why don't he? He went out your football credentials. Listen, I guess Are you a qualified general manage? No, not a chance. Country was right. Listen, yes, because he went through the I don't know, but he went through the system and he you know, he earned his stripes on the way. He went to the process. I have not. You can't just you know I can't do that. He was going around, and he was looking at people who reminded him of himself and he's like I got a draft. That guy or you running prints for your rompers.

The phone number to reach us is 3123323776 heads up to a listener too. I believe in the twitch Channel. Saying, Hey, take a look at Dan Witters Tweets, have you have you seen what? Dan tweeted here in the last 38 minutes? Is it Is it the fact that the Bears have not won in New Orleans since 1991 correct? So Dan tweeted, with the Bears and and Saints getting ready to play here Sunday at 3 40. Bears haven't wanted the Superdome since 1991 Tom Waddle caught the game winning touchdown pass from Jim Harbaugh early in the fourth quarter. Uh, I don't think it was early in the fourth quarter. I think it was that close to the end, wasn't it? Well, then I'm just reading the tweet. You tell us. You were there You were the guy who caught we sucked out loud for like 58 minutes. And then we drove down and actually beat them. I thought it was towards the end of the game. Like we were bad offensively that day. Most days. It was earlier in the year, right? I know this was the chicken game. Don't you remember the name of the year summary? No, they were eight. Know at the time. I believe seven or eight know at the time and we went down there. We snapped their winning streak, Right? Actually saw this game about eight months ago. We put it on way Had I had a Some of the videos out and my wife and I watched this game They were seven and one. Where we were No, the veins. I believe they were seven and know when we played them work. Are you looking at the record in the box Score act over 27th 1991. That's after the Bears beat them the right way. They were seven and Oh, it was, you know, going in there was this big commercial Like advertising campaign for checking, like every time they searching, that went right, But I asked these guys earlier. Do you know who the linebacker coach for that Saints team was with those great It was four linebackers. There was Von Johnson. Theres rate Ricky Jackson, Pat swilling Sam Mills. It was the best foursome of linebackers in a 34 defense. I think he could have ever put together and you're asking who the line back with linebackers coach was for that group. Chicago time. Bronco time. Vic Fangio. Oh, really want Vic Fangio? I believe amazing. What a coaching career. Could you imagine the phone calls we would get after Harbaugh puts up five for 22. I was off 61 yards. Intersection. Yeah, I took 22 until the final drive right words. And then we took it the length of the field and we we disrupted their undefeated season. Harbaugh was five of 22 wee one yard we were getting. We were just getting killed offensively and that came he ran for 24 yards. I think Wendell Davis had several good catches. On our way to the end zone for the go ahead touchdown into this year. One. Good catch. Really? For 27 yards. How many catches did he have on the day? This is one. No, I thought he had more than that. I'm looking at the stats right here. All right. Well, I must remember it incorrectly that Then I heard Danny. Bring this up that you know, the last time the Bears played a road of playoff game. That was we lost to San Francisco in 1994. When Dion Sanders asked me to officially retire because he was tired of covering me the you say Wendell Davis had a few receptions I thought he did. Harbor only had five completion. I thought on that final. How many did he have for the day? Who hardball had 55 for the day. Yes, it doesn't resonate. I don't know. A lot of stuff doesn't from when you really listen. It's true. That was how many years ago almost 30 years ago for crying out loud. I mean, what do you write? How old are you? What do you remember from 30? Years ago? Why was six? That's my boy. So that's my point. And, like waddle of dollar was getting his ass kicked, then too high to only had two receptions. 17 yards? Yeah. Don't be a jerk. He and I have to be a jerk. Always. We were six and two at that point. Yeah, we were 11 and six on 11 5 down the season. That was the Cowboys elimination, right? That is correct. You had a good great game then too, But here's another Tom Waddle tie, okay? So the last time the Bears played a road playoff game, you have to go all the way back to 1995 Look, Waddell said January 7th 1995 It's the 94 season. I believe lose New Year's Eve. You guys beat the Vikings to get to this game against the 40. Niners. Yes, I recovered an onside kick. You guys lost 44 to 15. Thank you. Yes, yes, 40 Niners and guess who the leading receiver for the Bears was in that game. In the 40 Niners game. The last road player why Tom Waddle had three targets and, of course, three completions. Because if you target time water, you're gonna hit the bull's eye. Three catches for 49 yards take that that led the Bears. Jeff Graham was only held to 33 yards that game. Well, Curtis Conway without 25 yards, and I think I was playing with like a needed was swollen decides my head and a bad hamstring. So a couple of last times here the last time the bears played the they want in New Orleans. Is that the staff that Wieder said Yes, 1991. That's I think that's what he's talking about. The Tom model had the game winning touchdown. And the last road playoff game that the Bears played in. Tom Waddell was the Bears leading receiver. Take that. Take that. That's three catches for 50 yards, fellas. I mean, like, that's that's a good average. Good afternoon, you Yeah. Listen, Do you realize like I was like, How many? How many yards per catch that I average of my, you 500.8. Sticking in your eye. I think you'd be e mean you would be maybe not totally surprised. But how many yards Paree. Like, Okay, How about this, You jerk in 1993? I had 44 catches for 552 yards average 12.6 yards per catch in 92..
