The Falcons announced this morning that Matt Ryan has been named president of football operations. According to Patrick Finley of Chicago, sometimes Ryan will be primary decision maker in the Falcons organization. Wow. Hey, that's dope. Hell yeah, it is. That's dope. Now, listen, you see what Matt Ryan is doing for the Atlanta Falcons? Yes.

There are so many players that have played at certain places, certain organizations that deserve a position like that. That can help make the right decisions and moving that organization and that team forward in the development of players and picking the right players, you know, to make sure they have success. Hell, why are Troy, Troy Aikman working for the goddamn Dolphins instead of doing exactly what Matt Ryan doing for the Falcons, then with the Cowboys. Because Mr. Blake doesn't care about the credit. You know who cares about the credit. I mean, okay.

Did you not hear the man say he's like Trump, Venezuela? He's running Venezuela. Taylor, did you not hear him say that? Oh, that wasn't AI? No. Oh, man, I thought that was AI when I saw that. That was J.I. Oh, and he really said that though, huh?

Yes, and he made it. But Jerry, boy, Jerry don't care. Hey, I have a question to you for you, huh? Because I know, I know, I know, every, you know, the people in the Bengals organization, they watch the show as well, huh? I'm talking about coaches coaches and all. Zach Taylor, I'm sure you're probably gonna see this.

Joe Burrow, I know you're gonna see this. Mike, Brown, Katie, Troy, my extended family. I would love a position with the Bengals, similar to that of Matt Ryan. I'm making my ploy for that position here on nightcap. Player, what's the position again on? Player personnel?

I, yeah, president, president of player personnel. Yeah, I would love to be the president. A football operation. Okay, yeah, that whatever I'm just saying, that's what I need to be. I would love to spend more time in Cincinnati. I would love to be in that building every single day, helping with the decision making and making sure we go forward in the right direction.

Uh, sorry. Huh? That's a family organization. I'm part of the family. I'm, I'm basically adopted. Yeah. And I'm telling you, I'm serious. Anything I need.

I can, I can call, I pick up, I can call Mike Brown right now. That's one o'clock in the morning. Here, pick up the phone. You might pick up the phone, but you ain't going to have no role in the organization. Okay, you know what? See, I like people with you wrong. You want to bet something?

Let's bet some. You have a row. I mean, they'll bet you community director. They got a lot. Hey, that's a role, ain't it? That, you, hey, you go out to the community. They see you out there to talk there. Hey, this is, this is on your.

No, there ain't no role. There ain't no role that you want. You want a role in the city. You want to roll like what Ozzy had. You want a role like what John Elway had. You want a role like what, uh, Troy Aitman. Right. Like Tom Brady.

Right. Like what Matt Ryan have. You want a role like that. Will you have some safe? Right. So you think they won't give me a role like that? No. I know for certain they will not give you a role like that.

Because guess what? If they were going to give you a role like that, you have it by now. Hold on, Uncle, I never proposed the question. You think Matt Ryan went to Arthur Black and said, hey, I want this role? You think, you think Troy Aitman went to the Dolphins and said, I want this role, or they reached out to them? No, I'm sure their conversations had behind the scenes. I don't think Dolph would just say of all the quarterbacks that have won the Super Bowls, I don't think just out the blue.

You know what? I think Troy Eggman is a guy. No, conversations ahead for those people. Let me tell you why. Let me tell you why Troy is the guy. Because what does Troy do? Go to every organization and get behind the scenes. Yeah.

Right. I got you. Matt Ryan, as a quarterback, he gets the call. They return those calls. Okay. You see how that work, Ocho? Okay. You see how that work?

I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I like, I'll talk to you. I'll tell you about some things how, how things that should happen with us don't get, but that's, that's another story. I'll, oh, oh, hold on. I already know. You ain't got to tell me that. You know, hey, listen, I played a fool. I ain't no fool. You hear me?

Yeah, for sure. Hey, this ain't nothing but a character on here. I already, I already know. You ain't got to tell me. I know how it goes. okay, I know, okay, if I can't get a, I know where I can get a position at, if it's not the position that with the NFL office. Yeah.

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I don't want to do that. I like it right here in a nightcap. Well, I wish they, never mind. We talk about that a little later day and time. You and I talk about that off here. Yes, sir. Uh-huh. But no, congratulations, Matt.

I know Matt used to see him in Atlanta all the time. Actually, he used to live in the street from us. but now he moved over a little further. He had his wife, Sarah. They have twins. I think they have another child, but they had twins. We used to take spin class together. I used to see her at Lifetime Fitness.

So congratulations to Matt and Sarah. Hopefully the kids are doing well. Hopefully everybody's doing well. As a matter of fact, a little fun fact. Matt Ryan and his brother married sisters. Okay. Matt Ryan married Sarah and his brother married a sister. Yes.

That's cool. I like that. I like that. I like that. Hey, listen, Matt Ryan and his brother marry sisters. They might, they might be, I don't think Matt and his brothers are twins, but I think Sarah and her sister might be twins. Hey, that's dope, huh? That's dope. Hey, that's so funny, right? How Matt and his brother married twins and then me and you, we're going to have a dual wedding, like to save money. Cambodia, you got, Camboddy got a sister? Huh? Cambodia got a sister. Well, what you get? Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. What they want to do? Yeah, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me know. You speak,heimer? Uh, I speak whatever need to be spoken. Okay, okay, okay, let me know. I could, we can, we can put you through a course real quick.

There's your sisters, twins, yeah, yeah. Okay, okay. Yeah. Yeah. The nicest people, she is, Matt's great too. Matt's great. Yeah, that's cool. Um, um, but like I said,

But like I said, I used to see Sarah all the time because at the boutique fitness that we used to go. I used to see it Lifetime Fitness. I think Matt took it a couple of times. Matt Stafford's wife, Kelly, great, Peyton's wife, Ash, great. Nothing but great things to say. They're always great, always. When I went to the, I went to the Ram game a couple of times and somebody. And she's like, I was talking to somebody

and, you know, I was, you know, one booth and that right next door, she's like, well, just come on over. Don't mind if I do. Step right through the window. But no, it's great. Congratulations, Matt. Unbelievable, the accomplishment to have that role

and hopefully he can get the Falcons turn around. But I think the Falcons are a great, great start. The Falcons with the right, with a quarterback, that's a good situation. That is a great situation. Very. Diana Rossini provided an update today

on John Harbaugh's path towards a new job. John Harbaugh is spending today and the next few days watching films specifically on quarterback Jackson Dart and Cam Ward. He's been in contact with team decision makers while continuing to communicate

with potential members of his own coaching staff. If I'm not mistaken, somebody reported that he's only going to take a handful of these jobs right right he's looking at a handful of these jobs obviously a proven commodity 18 years all the division titles that he's won all the playoffs 12 playoff wins and the Super Bowl clearly he's on everybody's radar but you see who is he looking at oh cho titans the giants and the titans yeah what are those two teams have defense quarterbacks oh yeah yeah yeah yeah quarterbacks

Now, if either one of those guys with Atlanta, he doesn't sign with Atlanta. Already. Already. But Atlanta is up in the air. Exactly. It's unsure. Exactly. Exactly.

And he says he wants control. First of all, Joe Shone, he's the general manager. Right. He's hired and fired a lot of coaches. But he's still there. Yeah. he let Sequin walk out the door he let the quarterback

walk out the door so you really trusted him? Yeah. I think, look, if you're a coach, Cho, obviously, and the thing is like John Harbaugh's been a head coach. Right. A lot of times, first time head coaches, they take it, you got to take

what's offered. But he's in a different position, though. He's in a different position because of his resume, because of his accolades, to be able to pick and choose where he wants to go. When coaches don't have a choice. When they do get the opportunity, they have no choice but to take the job. Whether the job is good or not,

because the opportunity is not going to present itself all the time. And those teams got, hey, he wants to pick his own general manager, but I don't know if shown or I don't know who the general manager is in Tennessee, I guess, you know, long as I have control, somebody I can work with, maybe it's somebody he knows, we'll find out.

Yeah. But like I said, and we see more stuff coming out of the locker room. You hear some people, some of the guys are saying, do we have that? Are we talking about that? About John Harbaugh,

about some of the players felt that he couldn't connect with the younger guys and things of that nature. And I just said it, Ocho, it's time for somebody else's voice to be heard. Yeah. And if somebody else, you know, it's just the way it is. It's not that I don't think John Harbaugh,

was a good coach because I do. But I just think, as you stay longer, guys get younger and the music is hard for you to relate. You know, sometimes you just got to ask a guy, man, what you listening to? What you got on that? What you, what you listening to? Let me get them.

Man, that's a bull's jive. See, this is what I'm talking about right here. Hey, give me that. Hey, this is what you should be listening to. Mm-hmm. you have to like sometimes don't show you really have to because John Harper is in his 60s he's 22 23 yeah yeah it's hard to relate it's hard to relate young boy that's what we call you know pre-teens and teenage boys young boys right oh you can tell me that's a rapper

I think that's why if you if you look at look at across you look across the league um Most of the, most of the head coaches, they are young. They are a little bit younger where they can, they can relate to some of the younger players as of today. Most of the old school style coaches don't even have head coaching jobs. Yeah. Ocho, new details revealed regarding John Harbaugh's dismissal via the athletic. John Harbaugh was fired in a phone call while driving home,

not a resignation. Damn. Not mutual. Fan frustration, blown leads and empty late season seats factored into that decision. Players were reportedly losing faith in Harbaugh's messaging and leadership style DeCosta held back tears as he told Harbaugh's staff. Some found out through a video call. Damn. I mean, well, hey, season over. So sometimes, you know, you can't do everything in a formal way in a formal format, you know, or I'd like to say respectful way for all the,

for all the time and work I've put in throughout the years, you would, you would like to have a conversation in person. It doesn't happen like that. Sometimes it doesn't. You just, hey, you're not coming back and that's that. Damn. After all I've done for you, after all I've done for you, you're going to, you're not coming back.

And tell me you going to let me go. Well, hold on. Okay. Well, how about, how about did you, how about did you just tell you your last day is June? What, you know, if my last days in June, matter of fact, if, if I'm knowing that if I lose this playoff game that y'all firing me make sure after the game you have my last check ready how about that oh joe he still got three years left and 34 million dollars so he go you go get you good i tell you what how about do me one we do more do me a solid with that give me

all my money at once no because if you get another job we all you all we going to do is just that you're going to defer we might not have to pay you nothing right yeah you're right you right ESPN Germany Fowler cited one person with the Ravens who said it's no coincidence that Harbaugh was fired as the team prepares to engage Lamar and contract talks this offseason.

Fowler reports that the Ravens no life is better with Lamar than without but added the two-time NFL MVP contract situation is perhaps the most underplayed story in the league right now. How is it underplayed? It's common sense.

You know it has to come. You know it has to be done. You know he's not going to have a $70 million cap it yesterday. So it's no point it has to get done. You see what goddamn. God damn. Josh Allen, he's looking to reset the market.

You saw what Josh Allen got. Okay. Yep. So we're going to be somewhere in the ballpark in the same area. There's common sense. Lamar Jackson and moms, mom dukes, they don't have no agent.

They know exactly where their numbers are supposed to fall up under. And he has a no trade clause. And he has a no, you can't franchise it. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. We're not playing them games. We're not playing them games.

Franchise who? Franchise him? That one? Number eight? Number eight? The young dude from Papano? Come on, man. Stop playing, man. He is the Baltimore Ravens.

He is the offense. Hold on. He is their identity. Yep. I agree. Come on, man. You're preaching to the choir. I've been here all day just like you.

Okay. The only thing is, hey, You know what? Do they pass the collection plans to the choir? Nah, not just the congregation. I was thinking. I was like, I don't think I ever remember the plate going to the choir. Nah, now, you know, I sang in the junior choir and the senior choir. I used to lead all the songs. And the collection plate I used to have to sing when they're singing,

the plate be going around in the congregation. Junior choir. Who? Man, we used to brew all that practice. The only time we got to sing was on second Sunday. Right. The junior choir got to sing on the second Sunday. Uh-huh.

Yeah, but you know, you know, I led a few songs with the senior choir too. I led him. You let him. Hey, yeah, knit across, you know. Him number 392. Ask someone for a suitable tune. You led devotional service. Hmm.

Come on now. You know, that's what, I mean, that's our grandfather did me and my brother. You say, hey, y'all boys leading devotional service today. Oh, we are? All right. Which one of y'all going to lead prayers today? Hmm. Who?

Man, I did it last time. Well, look here. Barnet said, hey, we get baptized. You're getting baptized today. Okay. Who want to get, who? We're going to open up the doors of the church. Yeah, because we go down there.

Yeah. We get baptized today. Right. But no, look, I just felt I just saw the way things were going. Yes. And I understand, look. As a head coach, you can hear everything, every call that the offensive coordinator is making. Yes, sir.

You can hear every call that the defensive coordinator once you change the frequency. So I get all that. Bro, you mean to tell me you okay with Derek Heron not being in the game for 12 minutes and you fighting for your playoff life? Hold on. No, no, no, no. I know what we normally have. We normally have a rotation, but not tonight.

Not tonight. Mm-mm. I'm surprised that it kind of like this, because before, you know, the reports were that John Harba only reported to Steve Bashadhi. Right. So there was really no, there was really no in between. There is no, like sometimes you have to go to the general manager or this or that.

But he's like, no, I talk directly to, I talk directly to Steve. Mm-hmm. Uh, he'll handle the feet. He'll be okay. Huh? No, I'm trying to figure out my camera cut off again. I just, I don't know. I thought you were trying to think of a,

think of a song used to sing in the choir. Oh, I know, hey, uh, near the cross was, was, that was my go to. Go tell it on the mile. That ain't near the cross. Oh, no, I'm just telling you, I'm giving you songs that I used to lead. Well, damn, if you're going to say in the cross near the cross,

I thought you was going to leave with it in the cross. Oh, no, I, I didn't want to bless it. Blessing assurance. Come on, man. Hey, don't play with me, uh, wait, hey, um, I, hey, I was so little, but I had a voice on me. This is before puberty hit. So once puberty hit, my voice started changing up. So I didn't sound as pure as I did when I was younger.

I can only imagine. Hey, boy, listen. Matter of fact, you know what? I was so good as a youngster, um, you know, the Mississippi Mass Choir. Yes. Tried to have me come. They tried to recruit you, huh? And get me on tour.

Mm. They wanted me to be a part of the Mississippi Children's Choir because I was, so good. I was going to lead there and then I was going to lead the Mississippi Mass Choir. I was going to sing some duets. I was going to sing some duets with um god dog it Mosey burkes you know if you know if you know if you don't a chat chat y'all do your homework or Mosey burkes the Mississippi Mass Choir wanted me to have a duet when I was young with Miss Mosey Burks that's how good I was onk man if it wasn't for football, I would, I would have still been singing today.

Yeah. I was, you know what? I would like Kirk Franklin before Kirk Franklin was the thing. Like, that's how energetic I was when it came to singing. Hmm. Ask about. Franklin, huh? Huh?

Kurt Franklin, huh? I was something like they, I had great energy, huh? Great energy. Okay. Yeah. Ask anybody, ask anybody. I'm asking anybody part of the Mississippi Mass Choir about my voice. You said mask or mask?

Mississippi. M-A-S-K. Hey, it's only one. Oh, I thought you talked about the Mississippi Mazz Choir because we don't need to see nothing or hear nothing. Yeah, Mississippi Mazz. Oh, I thought you said Mississippi Madsquire, chat. Did y'all think he said Mississippi Mazz Choir?

Yeah, it's only one Mississippi Mets. Hey, they're incomparable. The illustrious. Yes, I know who they are. Hold on, hold on, the greatest mass choir of all time. It is. Yes. They wanted me when I was young.

I was a baby. Come on, nah. Yeah. I'm pressing on. I'm pressing on. I'm trying to reach my heavenly home. Come on, that. A few more tears that I've got to shed.

A few more burdens I've got to bear. I've got a mother there, a father there, and I'm just trying to make it in. Just trying to make it in. So I'm pressing on, I'm pressed. Oh, now your boy, you really use. the same. Yeah, okay, okay. Your boy, I really used to

know that. But you sound like a tenor. You a tenor? Hey, you're a tenor? Without a little old junior D. Cache, I told you. Reverend Burns told my grandma, he told it right there front of him. He said, Mary, he said, I'll probably be dead and gone. Yes, sir. But that boy got a call.

Okay. I said, well, you know, I think a football might call it, but okay, I would take you word. Okay, I like it. I like it. Hey. But, you know, that call you, boy, they call you boy die to let me do a little something. A little something?

Okay. Oh, pray. Now, your boy, pray now. Oh, you can pray? What? Hold on, do me a favor real quick, huh? Before we end the show tonight, how about you bring us home in prayer? Nah, no, no, because people, man, you see I, you see I, you see I ought to be playing.

Man, you know how. Hey, come on, hey, aunt, we, that'd be a good one. That'd be a good one, you know? Think about how when we do the live show, right? Yeah. When we do the live show, you notice how I always say a prayer with everybody before we start? So, you know, it ain't, you know, ain't none to it. Matter of fact, you know what's so funny?

What was there? I forgot to tell you about this. Boy, my grandma took me to see the mighty clouds of joy. Okay. Boy, look here. My grandma took me to see the mighty clouds of joy. Mm-hmm. And they brought me on stage to sing.

That's how good I was. I was no, I was a phenom. I sung with the mighty clouds of joy. and the Can Spirials back in 83. Look, the Mighty Cloud of Joy. Come on, now. The Mississippi Mass Choir. Come on, now.

The five Alabama blind boys. Cleveland. Yeah, Reverend James Cleveland. Come on. My grandpa, man, my grandpa used to love my hair of your Jackson. Oh, my goodness. Boy. In the upper room with you.

Come on, man. Stop playing, man. Don't make me go back home, man. But that be, look, my, I'm the only one. My brother, my sister's in the church all the time. That was the thing that after my grandmother passed, my sister, she gave her life to the Lord. My brother's always been in, always been in, I mean,

as long as I can remember, probably for 25, 25 plus years. My sister says my grandmother passes. religiously in church, revival, going to different churches when they have revival, Bible study. I got to get,

I got to, you know, I got to get my act together with you all. Yeah, now you're good, you good, you good, you good, you good, you good, you good, you good, hey, one step, at a time.

One step at a time? That's all you do, but what you can't do is you can't lose what makes you you know. Oh, no, no, no, no. God created you to be you, you know? Probably, oh, I might have to do, I mean, I mean, I might have to do a gospel podcast, you know, have to let you turn this over to somebody else.

Nah, no, we ain't doing that. We ain't doing that. Well, we definitely ain't doing that because that's not, that's not our calling. Now, you heard what your pastor said. Yes. Now, one of the callers was football. The other calling was this, okay? Now we have a great thing going on, but what you can't do is you can't lose sight of who you are.

Yeah, you can't do that. Matter of fact, I just, it just dawned on me. What? Hey, chat, y'all can hear me sing. Where? I thought about this. If you listen to this song, right,

me in the Florida Mass Choir, I was the lead vocalist in a Storm Cloud Rising. I just thought about that. I don't know why I forgot about that. I was the lead vocalist for the Florida Mass Choir in the song or storm cloud rising. Come on, man. Stop playing.

Like, I really do this. I got the background. I got the background. Ask Shirley sees it by me. Huh? Listen, I tell you no lie. If I'm lying, I'm flying. Come on, now, as Dorothy Noah would about me.

This is when I was young, now. I'm telling you. I'm going to take your word. for a little Joe. Yes, sir. Yonis was asked about the 65 game rule for regular season awards. He said, I'll be honest with you. Through 13 years of being in the league, I think I've played 65 games every year. I'm still going to try.

I think I'm still going to try to play 65 games. But it's hard. If you really want to be a good player to help your team get deeper into the playoffs, then you come back at the end and you play 65 games again. I've been in the end, I've been in all NBA the last nine years in a row. So seven times first team. It's hard to be consistent. Just putting that rule there, it doesn't give you a break.

The margin of error is hard. It's like if you get one injury, you're off the race. I might, I might make it. Yolkich might not make it. LeBron not going to make it. Wembe might not make it. It's all because, is it all for it because it could benefit me at first? But as I get older, I'm like, take it off.

Take it off, but these are rules. You just got to play by the rules. What's going to be available? but just shade, so it's up in the air. No, y'all just let me tell you what happened. They got tired of all the superstars load managing. You guys were just arbitrarily willy-nilly just sitting out. You didn't care if it was a televised game on TNT.

You didn't care if it was a televised game on ESPN or ABC. So they say, you know what? You're not going to be first team all NBA. You can't get defensive player of the year. You can't get MVP. And it's unfortunate. It is very, very unfortunate because Nicola Yolkich was at the top of the MVP, ladder. Right. He has a serious injury. But like you said, you guys will say, well, I got a knee

injury. I got a foot injury. I got brat or I just need rest. So sometimes the hair got to go at the high. Some rules, and I understand why rules were put into place, but sometimes rules harm good people. Yeah. Because the people have tried to skirt the system for such a long time. it's just like anything public housing, assistance because so many people have skirted the system, Ocho. People that really need it have a harder time

than getting to the people that don't. So, I'm sorry, Yonis. I do understand what you're saying. Ocho, here's a story for you. The NBA has suspended Dennis Schrooter three games for confronting and attempting to strike Luca Donchich

after the Kings lost to the Lakers in Los Angeles on December 28. Donchich and Schroeder jolted each other during the various points of the Kings 125-101 loss. During a timeout, Luca taught his Schroeder telling him, should have signed that contract in reference to the four-year $82 million extension. He declined from the Lakers. Things appeared to be cool off as the game ended. But Schroeder left the visitors locker room at the crypto arena,

spotted Luca and Temples flared, again inside the tunnel across from. from the home bench. 40 minutes after the buzzer, Shrewder went, Luca, telling Luca he can't just call him a B-I-T-C-H on the court and pretend everything is fine. The NBA concluded

that Shruder attempted to strike Luca. And boy, took that thing kind of far. And I think they probably know what you call them. They're called no day. And that's what I keep telling people. People are like, oh, they all just words. I don't know where y'all think y'all come from. Yeah. But I ain't know. You can't call people that.

And they didn't think everything going to be cool? Yeah. where can you go and just called somebody that and say oh yeah I was playing huh no you can't do that

and obviously shooter took offense to that hell if you if you don't shower then put your clothes on and you still mad that they that might that might damn they be personal now well you don't call you call me that just because I don't put it that so I'm shouting and put my clothes on that don't mean I

I forgot what you said yeah but shit If you're still mad about that, just about, I mean, I'm sure you know, you get called named during the game. You know how them boys talk on the court on. You know how that guy. Yeah, but I think when you start calling somebody that BITCH, man, you got to be careful, locho. Yeah, you're right.

You right. I mean, in Liberty City, could you call somebody gay that wasn't gay? No, not them fighting words. And you know, the one word down here, the one word down here, like, no matter what, if you say it, like you got the fight, you talk about somebody mama or you call them a fuck. Oh, yeah, for sure. You call them a fuck.

You call somebody a fuck, nigger, you got, you got the rock. You ain't got no choice. It is what it is. You got to go. You got to go. We got to go. We got to go one-on-one. Yeah.

Because that's what I am. Okay, let's do it. Yeah, you got to. Let me see if you can beat this BITCH. That's what I ate. Bro, I'm telling you, man, you just. Yeah. Ain't.

Hey. But y'all, y'all just can't, you just can't arbitral just trash talk I understand trash talking I get it I was pretty good at it yeah one of the best if you ask me but I ain't calling nobody out their name I ain't calling nobody no B I T-C-H right because hey you definitely wasn't talking about nobody mama when I grew up dad that I told you but I got slapped for saying somebody mama yeah it's and I wasn't talking about her but I ain't know her and the girl with sisters I say your mama bye I said I I said her mama.

She said, fool, we got the same damn mama. It's okay. Learn my lesson. Yeah. Yeah. Damn. And then, you know, that's the wrong. Because I remember the game and he was going back and forth that I intruded like, okay,

say it out. Say it when we were done. You know, the funny, that's the wrong person to be trying to hit two anyway. You're from to hit the face it. Well, is he to face the league yet? No. Maybe. I don't either.

LeBron and Steph still there. Okay. Well, still, Luke is a prominent figure in the NBA. That's not really someone you want to choose to fight. I don't think Luke is trying to bump like that anyway. So to be honest with you. All right, it's time for our final segment of the evening. It's time for Q and A.

I'm so excited for the game tomorrow. I am too. We got three of them. Hey, we so do. Dutchie from her down the way. Oh, Ocho. Can your boys wish my lady. Andrea, a happy 36th birthday.

The bills will lose, but cover will be shook tonight. But covers will be shook tonight. That's going to be a good game, man. Absolutely. Hey, Dutchie, thanks for the support, man. Hey, Andrea, happy 36th birthday. Hopefully you guys, when I got you a great dinner, get to, hey, didn't eat too much because the duchies say,

the covers going to get shook. He said, covers going to get shook. It's already. Can't get shook the covers full dark. pretty dark on that side of time, problem. So it's dark everywhere. But yes, thank you, man. Dutch, appreciate the support.

Happy birthday, Andrea, happy 36th birthday, and enjoy. Hellbell, OG, lovelin is that dude, unc. If I'm the Packers-Wy receiver, I'm holding my head up. For what? Bro, we lost. Ain't nothing to hold a head up about. Man, ain't no, oh, we got a promise in future. I don't care nothing about that.

Man. I just, I just wish more people invested in something. Anything. I don't care what it is. And then have it taken away from them. Then you'll get an understanding of what it's like when an athlete lose. Because all that training, all that film study, all that meeting, it's over. Done.

Finish, kaput. The more you work at something, the more you invested in something, the more you're invested in something, and the more you deplored your heart, your blood, sweat, and tears. Yeah. Time, energy, and effort, the more it hurt when it ends. It just does.

It just does. And if it doesn't hurt, you probably didn't put enough into it. Ask anybody in the several loss something. Meaningful. Ask Brady, how did losing that, the undefeated season?

Ask him, how did it feel losing to Philly? When Unculture Jay Ocho looking like Unlockable Def Jam's icon character Chris Guadalupe Oh forget Daniels

Remember folks said Bearers should keep Fields Over Jacob I said that was never going to happen I said they had already Let one number one to pick go And you think they was going to pass that guy Absolutely not

No Daniel Hayes Caleb is clutch Put some respect on that man's name The Bear is going to be a tough out. They are. They got a take,

hey, and guess what, Ocho? They got another home game. Yeah. Mm-hmm. T.S. Carwise, detail service. Two great games, Chad. This is going to be a great playoff. Faults on Jod to the Timberwolves.

I mean, he's him and aunt. I would need, I would like, if you tell me a more traditional point guard, my guy that said pass first, even though these points. point guards, they're not past first point guards.

They get sure. Luca's not a past, Luca's not a past, a past first point guard. Can he pass? Absolutely. He averages eight a six over eight a sister game. Mm-hmm. But most of these guys are two guards masquerading its points.

Right. Now, I don't know if I love that, uh, giant aunt. It's Maddie. Who do you think feels worse? Loop or McManus? If I'm McManus, I'm finding a Greyhound bus because coach ain't letting me

ride back with the team. Yeah, they probably took the buses. No, I'm pretty sure they flew. I mean, it's only hour and a half, but they probably flew. Who feels loop, loop, loop, loop. Who do Luke play for the middle? Oh, against the Ravens.

It's like, which is heavier, a ton of bricks or a ton of feathers. They weigh the same. I think the hurt is equal. Still heads, I didn't even turn the game on until it was 216. These games don't start till late. third quarter.

Big Titi, the one. Hey, uh, you got room in your garage for a McLaren because I know where I can get where one at. Let me know if you need that. Yeah, I got room for it. If I ain't got room, I'll make room. If you need it, uncle, I'd let you borrow it now. Ain't no thing.

I so know a Bears gym cook. We just needed the right coach. Now, what do you think about Matt LaFleur? What do you think? Matt LaFleur will, uh, what do you think? Matt LaFleur will keep his job. job? Yeah, it ain't fin of fire the floor.

No. Uh-uh. Year 7, playoffs every season, damn near? He ain't going to. Dark Barre, what's your all opinion on if Bryce earned a long-term contract with the way he's played this year? I think so. Yeah.

Because I don't think they're going to find a better quarterback. Ain't no better quarterback coming out in the draft. And there's no guys that are back-up that's better than Bryce Young. Yep. He's in the right situation. He's in the right place. I mentioned that early in the show. It is what it is.

Derek Cushank, Ocho, I'll pay for your tech guy in 2026. My God. You know what? Pat Dubs, Uncle Ocho. Y'all be preaching all year. D.B., don't let receivers cross your face. Coker did just that to bribe when he ran the dagger for 52.

Yeah? The linebacker just let Zakeas. bro, why you let the man cross your face? Where are you going? Yeah. He's dropping to an area and here's a guy coming across his face. That's you. Antoine Bowdo.

Yo, these cheese graders is crazy. I guess that's the new thing. Now, they got the cheese grater hat. So, Cho, you know, the Packers got the cheese head. The Bears fans be wearing cheese grater. Cheese grater. Yes. Amaz, OG.

Eli, how do you know breaking down a corner and how do you relay that to your teammates? Elijah, how do you know? Well, obviously, you do ask, okay, how is you playing you? Playing inside, he played outside, he's playing head up. If you play it off, is he jumping routes or he's selling, I mean, is he clueling? Yeah, you pass the information because,

especially if the guy doesn't travel, if he traveled, I can't give you any information because he's staying with me the whole game. Yeah. But if he doesn't travel, yeah, you relay information, let him know how the corner's playing. Mm-hmm. And most of the time.

Tyler Hamilton. Can't even believe I use it the damn daddy after beating the ass every year from 2017 to 2024 at Purdue. Congrats to them. I'm going to check out the country in Indy. Yeah. Fast turn around. You can turn this thing around in the mallet no time now. Catch a body fitness longer.

Don't know. Can y'all wish my wife Courtney a happy 42nd birthday? An upcoming retirement after 22 years in the military nightcap is our week. weekly nightcap. Absolutely. Thank you for your service, first and foremost. And thank you all the men and women around the world that's protecting us. But Courtney, happy 42nd birthday.

Man, retirement and a birthday. Hopefully you guys do something very, very fun. Hopefully you did something fun. Man, that's great. But I want to thank you enough young man for your services. All the great work that you've done protecting this country. So again, thank you very much. and happy 42nd birthday, Courtney.

J.J. Carver, Indiana need to be told that points don't roll over to the next game. Belt the ad, switches, extension cords, court and rods, spare time, everything. Damn. Y'all doing it like that? Daniel Hayes, Unk, do you remember the biggest playoff performance and who was it against? Yeah, I mean, in a loss, it was against the Raiders in the wildcard game. 13 or buck 53 I think in a touchdown and then had a big catch against Pittsburgh in the AOC championship game and then the 96 yarder that we had against

the Raiders in the championship game. That slant, that slant. Yep. Yeah. Yep. You see how your boy picked the things up, Ocho? Yeah, you were gone now. You were gone.

I should, I should have hit him. With the P sign? Yeah. The real Kato commander's fan here. Pickens deserve all pro. He was amazing this season. Absolutely. And when you get Ocho and I agree on something,

you might have just etching in stone. Shakura 85, which players needed fresh air this off season? Also, what about Flores to the Ravens? And McDaniel as OC and Pickens to Buffalo. Man, man, you put, man, you put Pickens with a, uh, uh, Josh Allen. Oh, that couple. Now, I don't know if you heard, Ocho,

but did you hear how, how glowing Lamar talked about Clint Kubiak? Uh-huh. In Seattle. Yeah. Say he likes the way he attacks every vertical, horizontal, every area of the field, gets all these guys involved. That's, that's very exciting. Yeah.

I'm just saying, that's what he said. They quoted him. DeQuahette, Derek Brown, gets no respect can't be about the play. Yeah, you're right, it's not. I think because of defensive tackles, now, Ocho, because it used to be guys get one or two sacks and they could get it.

Man, what do you call them, ruin that, Aeronnell and Sapped them, them guys ruin that. Chris Jones, guys getting eight, nine, ten, 15, 20 sacks. Now, two sacks and playing the run good, ain't going to cut it. No, it's not. Eric Jordan Scott, Uncle Nocho. I know y'all would agree with me.

One, 2009 Bama, 2020 Bama, over both 2019 LSU and Indiana. 2009 Bama with a monster, 2020, with Cirtan and Devonte Smith, Will Anderson Jr., Barmore. Oh, they were loaded now. Yeah. It'd have been very interesting to see.

I would pick 2020 Bama over Indiana, but I don't know about that 2019 LSU with Joe Burr and all those guys. Yeah, that was different. I mean, you might have to go get Miami, 2001 team with all those guys with Ed Reed

and Antrell rolling all them. Sean Taylor. Wilma, yeah, yeah, Belma and DJ Williams and Vince Wolfick and all those guys, man. That 2019 LSUEEEEEEEEEEE that 2019 LSUU team were different on. Steeler, Papp 86, Florio didn't vote Troy Palomalu for Hall of Fame said he knew he was getting in, so he voted for someone else. Stuff like that with the voters BS, they should lose the right to vote.

Just don't say anything about it that if you didn't vote for Troy, Palomalo, man. Comic Book nerd, great game, love y'all brothers, bear down. Bears look good. They got another home game. Win that game. Who knows, you might get a home game for us. NFC championship. Glenn Bonner.

That leading was the head with BS. Looked like dude hit it with his forearms, hit the other dude in the chest. What y'all thinking? Was it a soft call or a good call? I'm assuming he's talking about the Rams game. I thought the guy hit Devonthe under the chair. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I thought the Rams guy hit him in his chest. Could be wrong with hate. And the rules this game, I feel sorry for defenders. They can't even play football. They can't. It's hard. It's hard.

Marvin Collier. What's up, Hunk and Ocho? It's Marvin from Chast, South Carolina. It's my 28th birthday. Can I please get a shout out? Absolutely. Happy 28th birthday. Charleston, low country.
