But I'm never going to be able to get over seeing you on TV every Sunday. It's crazy to me that the little kid who used to steal my money and bury it in a in a lunch, would you bury it in a sand bucket in the backyard? You stole like 20. Called a Roth IRA, Chris. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Have you ever seen the cool stuff that happens in college baseball games during weather delays where they stage naval battles and they have, you know, I mean,

that's the kind of stuff that happens in baseball, which is why I was really drawn to it as a youngster, but never barking like a dog in the sprinkler. And I think the same thing holds true in the studio where I'm honestly the kid that just thinks there's four of us in a room that's really well lit and we just are talking football. Welcoming now, a big desk guy, a big desk guy. We got a big desk guy right here in our presence. Kyle Long's going to be at the big desk. Kyle, you want to break the news here on the Greenlight Pot?

You already did it on the internet, but like maybe some. people missed it. Yeah, and you know what? It was, as you and I know, it's, it's been something that I've wanted to do for a long time. And I got the job at NFL today every Sunday. I've worked in the same studio across the hallway for the last five, six years. And now I get an opportunity to work there every Sunday. So those guys are going to be tired of me by like week one, 5 p.m.

I'm sure. Bill Cowell will be like, get this motherfucker out of here. Because you know what, Bill Cowher used to come across the hallway and do our morning show. It was originally Tops and now it's NFL Today Plus. And he comes over there. We get him baked goods every week and he never offered me any. He always said, I got to be careful with these, you know. So now any time he gets baked goods, my new bid, I think.

I'm just going to steal all the baked goods from Bill Cowher. Take all Bill Cowers baked goods. Guy loves a Danish, loves a locally made anything. If it's got a good story and he's a sucker for good stories, So if there's like a great story about the bakery owner or the founder, he's all in. Yeah. This guy's a Ravens fan. The guy that owns this bakery is a Ravens fan.

And you know every Sunday, Kyle, they make these black and purple ravens. And I'll tell you what, I think it might give Lamar Jackson Superpowers this week. No, I was wondering who else is on the show, Kyle, because, you know, I kind of live under a rock. So I'm very, I'm into the coach Cowher age group because he reminds me a lot of my. dad, but we also have some contemporaries there. Nate Berluson is the guy that you guys see every weekend. The guy is everywhere. There's nothing he can't do. Turns out he's into basketball. Turns out he's from a basketball family. Russell Wilson is obviously the big all-star edition. Ten Pro Bowls, a guy that I think helped revolutionize the quarterback position. We see shades of

like through Caleb Williams and other guys we love now. I see a lot of Russ. I don't know if you guys agree with me or not. The back door pirouette, the deep, ball stuff. He's everywhere. So if you're a guy that really love watching Russ play, hopefully you'll really enjoy him on Sundays. I think people don't really know Russell very well. And I think it's such a unique opportunity in that second life after football where you get to be in people's living rooms every Sunday. I think he's a funny guy. Like I've gotten to play a lot of golf with him recently. And he is really bright. I think he could be a coach if he wanted to. He's one of those guys. But we're lucky to have him. And then,

We've got a couple other stuff that'll be coming out as the season goes along, but really, really excited for the studio show and going on the road like we did last here is always fun being around the crowds. Kyle, Russell Wilson was the big fish. You just mentioned that last week. Like, I guess my question would be, how good was he at baseball? Because you played him all the time in high school, from what I remember. Well, I'll tell you what, man, that's what people fail to realize.

So when I went from McIntyre Little League, the artist formerly known as Dixie Little League, shout out to Stephen Darkus, who I played with, and him and his dad were a big part of changing the nomenclature in Charlottesville, which was actually like one of those times I'll never forget. Like it went from Dixie to McIntyre. I remember that. And then after that, they kick you to the curb to the big field and they say, go figure out how to hit home runs there. Well, mom and dad were like always supportive, and there was a lot of moms and dads around our area. we got an AAU team together called the Barnstormers. We played against Russell Wilson's team, the River Dogs, which was like the Metro and Richmond team.

They were just flat out better, bigger guns, bigger horses. And Russell was as smooth and polished and prepared as a guy at that age as I'd ever seen. Honestly, the first time I watched Russell take infield, I remember going back to the dugout, looking to my buddy Chris Marine and being like, that's the next Derek Jeter right there. And that's how good he was. And then as we got older and competed against each other in high school, he went to collegiate. Really great quarterback, obviously, but I thought he was a better baseball player as a youth. And he was a guy that could foul off 20 pitches in a row just waiting for his pitch,

and then he'd taken off the right field wall with ease. He was as toughen out as I can remember. And he was a great pitcher, but a superb shortstop. Speaking of baseball, Kyle, you know, we don't really know you that well in this pod. so our producers, we did a bunch of research. Heard a fun baseball story about you. I was wondering if you could verify this. Basically, a pitching coach went to recruit you as a pitcher.

Midgame, the sprinklers went off. You got out of your rhythm. You were very frustrated. I have a hard time imagining that. And you were so hyped up and pissed off that you shoved your face in one of the sprinklers and barked at it like a dog. Can you verify this story?

I don't know. I mean, you know, sometimes you black out on the floor. I don't know if I've ever blacked out and barked like a dog in a sprinkler head. I'm sure that at some point a sprinkler went off and it, you know, it forces you to get out of your flow. I'm sure it's plausible that at some point I barked like a dog in a sprinkler. Have you ever seen the cool stuff that happens in college baseball games during weather delays where they stage naval battles and they have, you know, I mean, that's the kind of stuff that happens in baseball, which is why I was really drawn to it as a youngster, but never barking like a dog in the sprinkler. Dude, I got to say, I'm not saying I was there to see it, but I absolutely have a vision of you barking like a dog at a sprinkler, like two inches from the head of the sprinkler. So I don't know that it happened, you know, just that way, but like how would, why would somebody make that story up?

You know what I'm saying? Yeah, it's a little specific. It's a little too on the nose. George R.R. Martin right there. Which leads me to my next point. I just wanted to say this, Kyle. First off, I'm like, I know we opened the show with like talking about the CBS. thing. It, you know, we watched our dad on TV for, you know, a lot of our childhood, right? Like,

every Sunday. And to us, it was, like, kind of like, not a big deal because he's just your dad or whatever. But I'm never going to be able to get over seeing you on fucking TV every Sunday. It's crazy to me that the little kid who used to steal my money and bury it in a sandbox, in a lunch, uh, what would you bury it in a sand bucket in the backyard? You stole like, called a Roth. IRA, Chris. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, you owe me, motherfucker. It's just crazy to me.

Like, I don't know how to say this, but like, it's never going to, it's never not going to be a wow thing when I turn on the TV and see my little brother doing that. It's crazy. Has it sunk in for you that you're going to be on TV in front of the whole country every Sunday? You know, it's funny you put it like that because I remember when I was playing and I was, I was, I was just smart enough to get the job done, big, strong, fast enough to get the job done, and just dumb enough not to think about it. And I think the same thing holds true in the studio where I'm honestly the kid that just

thinks there's four of us in a room that's really well lit and we just are talking football. And I don't bring notes on the desk. And I have a lot of opinions, as you guys know, and sometimes there's not enough time in the day to get it out. But I do my best not to think about it. and I can understand why you would feel that way. And, like, when I first, when you and I were first talking to dad about me getting into TV, like you, it's no, I have no anxiety about the things that come out of your mouth. But sometimes I'm like, oh, boy, I leave the stadium or the studio.

I'm like, oh, boy, did I say that? I hope that's okay. But I think that's what people want to hear, right? They want to hear a guy that's not thinking before he shoots his gun. And that's the beauty of the opportunity to get with television. Kyle, who would you credit as a mentor in this ascension to the big desk in the non-family division? I love John Madden so much. And I have. I love his video games. It makes a great video game. But it's not like I'm out there trying to be John Madden. But what I loved about John Madden was that he was big, he was unapologetic, he was gross at times, and he was just all ball.

And there's times where I might come in and my breath might stink and I might have some shit in my beard. But I am so on fire for football on Sundays. And I love the stories. I don't love only just snap to whistle. I love everything about it. And I'm lucky to do it. Boom! We got to think of some words that we could like, hey, Kyle, if you say these words this year, like, hey, we'll be like, hey, we told you to say that.

I don't give them anything. Yeah, please do. Are we thinking like an automatopoeia? I think I may have the unique opportunity to potentially, I don't want to put the cart before the horse, but I think everybody gets an opportunity to do some highlights during the season in that like 2 o'clock window, like 1.30, like halftime. So I got to think of some good AFC nicknames

that maybe people I haven't heard of. And I just want to have fun. Like if you're getting a sandwich or if you're refilling your jacking Coke over there in the kitchen during halftime, I want you to look up and be like, who the hell do they give a mic to over there? That sounds like it's a problem. Give him five words and like if he can say those at some point in the season, we're like, out of boy.

If I'm in the kitchen and I hear penis, bald, I'm looking up. I'm turning around to see who said that. Yeah, that's true. Caleb William has the green light, you know? Can I say something about Caleb Williams? Because you just compared him to Russell Wilson. I think he can be better. And that's with all due respect to.

Russell Wilson. I'm just saying from an athlete. No, no, you're right, because we all said that. These athletes are comfortable doing. And there's some things that guys aren't comfortable doing. There's a lot of things I see Caleb do that I say, I used to see Russell do that. No question. And when he was coming out, we were like, hey, there's a lot of Russ in this guy's game. I just, you know, I kind of eulogized Russ last week. I wonder if you agree with this. But he was the guy that like, it was all about the third down magic with him. It was all about that back-breaking chunk play that he had the arm to access. Two-man route concept. Two-man concept, seven-man protection. We're going, we call that downtown Julie Brown, buddy. Mm-hmm.

Yeah. Yeah. No, he was, he was unbelievable. I got to see him twice a year, but I'm excited to see you guys together. And obviously, you've talked about Bill Cowher a bunch. So, you know, you, you, you drew the comparison to dad. I can see you kind of like definitely spending a lot of time with Bill in the studio. I was with dad last night, by the way, we grilled out. What did you guys make? I made chicken. Dad thought it was really moist.

This chicken is too moist. This chicken tastes good. What the hell did you do to it? Did you people know that according to the internet, Howie Long, was 34 years old when he started on Fox NFL Sunday. Which is a wild deal? That's three years younger than Kyle. No, it's a wild deal.

Do you ever want to take a step into the time machine? And I sent Russell this, actually. I sent him the 1994 pilot episode of Fox NFL Sunday where, like, Terry walks in with a mic, and it's just being Terry, and he's introducing his crew, and he walks over to Dad, and he says, this guy right here, Howie Long, we got some good rookies in here. Howie Long, just last week, he said, I will be a Hall of Famer. And then Dad looks at Terry, says, for as good as you say you were,

that's a big compliment. And I'm like, this is gold. Like, this is the stuff that doesn't happen anymore unless you're watching like, like the show with Chuck and Shaq. Like, that's really, you want guys making fun of each other and being supportive. And that's really the, but people want to learn stuff, but they want to have fun, right? Yeah, they want to see people enjoy each other. And that's the secret sauce.

And then the big thing is that, you know, if somebody doesn't like somebody on set, like people at home can pick up on that. But like, you're set. You've always been on really good set. You had Adam Shine and Jonathan Jones. Adam Shine is my guy. Jonathan Jones is fantastic, so plugged in. And, like, I have such a wealth of people that I can call on.

And if I have a question about something, whether it's media-based or whether it's, there's a contract that I don't understand, like, I can call any of these people. And they explain it to me, and there's no shame or guilt. They're teaching me, which is great. It's like a big family. It's like, I call Chris. I got questions about. number 96 from, you know, wherever.

And he knows everything about it. Yeah. It's really paying off for me, Kyle. So, so, what's your biggest fear on air? My biggest fear on air. That's a really good question. My biggest fear on air is that I, my biggest fear is that I slip into somebody that makes my criticism personal instead of professional.

Oftentimes, we, see guys fall into the trap of, you know, we all have guys that we like and we don't like. But nobody's out there actively rooting against people. Everybody wants to see good stuff. But sometimes you might have a gut reaction. You say something that's more personal than it is football. And I think that's my biggest fear is not to do that. I think that's just human, right?

That's a great answer. I was expecting, like, you to say, like, I don't know. Bougar. Like, yeah, like pick your nose and fucking eat it on camera or something like that. just compulsively. It'll be naked on camera. I'm so afraid of that happening. After you wear compression shorts for five hours.

Yeah, that'd be embarrassing if that happened, Kyle. That would be totally embarrassing. And worse yet, imagine that person's brother trying to go to sleep and getting 40 phone calls. Hey, your brother's dicks on the internet. That's terrifying as well, dude. All right. Well, we got now. EBS probably saw that.

And I think that kind of helped parlay you into this desk job, you know? They said this guy's got a lot of room for growth. Yes, he does. Yes, he does. Yes, he does.

If you give me the floor for a second, I just want to talk, I want to apologize to a fan base that I, along the lines of what you just

said, I got kind of personal. And I was doing a little self-reflection last night. I was way too hard on Browns fans last week. I just, I totally shit on the Browns. The Browns have been building quietly. They've been drafting well. They can't get the quarterback thing right. You have to admit that it's fucking hilarious that like you got people taping 24 quarterback names on the back of jerseys and you finally take a big swing in it and the guys got 38 civil cases. And you know, you trade away probably the best football player in the NFL for like

a first and Jared verse. That is all admittedly funny, but I shouldn't have been so hard on Browns fans. I think it would be cool to be a Browns fan. I think it's cool to like a team that hasn't one in a while because it's going to pay off when they finally do. And you people are loyal. You people are loyal. So I just wanted to apologize for being

too hard on Browns fans last week. It's not tongue and cheek. I laid in bed last night thinking about it. Ran over. Just don't do the thing where you were too hard on Dolphins fans and now you've come too far around the other way saying that they might have something. Well, I thought they were going to have something until

I'm starting to be convinced that they're just like they're using Malik Willis to soft tank because they're not giving him any fucking receivers and the GM from Green Bay likes him so much that they're like, I want to get this guy paid but we're not going to give him anybody to throw to. Admittedly, I used to root against the dolphins, Kyle, which kind of broke the rule that you talked about,

but I am coming around on the dolphins now. Kyle, what's a team that you used to dislike that you like now when you cover them? Like, is there a team that you hate it as a player but now you'd like them? I find myself loving up on Seahawks fans and, you know, occasionally saying, hey, good job, Niners. Well, there's different, there's different types of hatred, right? They're stylistic hatred for teams that you hated playing against because your body would feel a certain way.

And then there's the type of hatred that's like just divisional, right? So in my case, it would be the Green Bay Packers. Look, we hated the Packers, but it was kind of like a sibling rivalry. Now that I get to appreciate the Packers in a different lens from a different perspective and the fact that the Bears are better and a real contender, it allows me to appreciate and respect the way that they've done their program there for a very long time. Look, Jordan Love is fun to watch, and they have a ton of talent on the offensive side of the ball. They've got nobody that's like the Justin Jefferson to their offense, but it's fun to watch the distribution. And I really think Matt LaFleur is a good coach. So I enjoy the Packers a lot.

The Niners have been fun to watch them keeping this thing together for so long, being next to the nuclear power station. And in addition to that, seemingly just injuries, injuries, injuries. But they've found a way through alpha leadership and a great coach. It seems like the common denominator is great coach, right? Like, I'm really excited to watch Kyler Murray and Kevin O'Connell. I don't think there's a quarterback competition. I think it's Kyle Murray's team.

And I can't wait to watch him go with that. that thing. And I think that the troops in that building are excited, that they've got a eight-year seasoned veteran with some skill sets who knows which button to press, and the moment's not too big for him. If he's healthy, he can go. Carolina, Brandt Tillis, my buddy from Kansas City, who has played a huge part there. And obviously Morgan and Carolina, they're building a bully as well. And they were on the doorstep of greatness last year with an opportunity to knock it down. So those are a few of my teams other than the ones that, you know, I'd like to see the Jets put together a football team because I think the Giants are doing that. And I think the Giants are building a bully.

Giants are doing their thing, bro. They're doing their thing. They're definitely seizing the 24-hour news cycle. I was waiting for you to go because the pretense of the question was like teams you used to hate and you're going through the whole NFL. You're like, let me do the NFC. I fucking hate them all. I like this team now. I hate the Philadelphia Eagles.

That's okay. And I respect the fuck out of a lot of those guys. And including our dear friends of the program, Lane Johnson and Jordan Mila. And I've gotten to know Lane and Dickerson. But like the fall of the Holy Roman Empire, it wasn't one bomb that won off and everything collapsed. There was a series of events over an empire that stretched beyond the horizon

into other time zones. That's the Eagles right now where they've been in a class of their own. And we all know that because of their front seven and their front four, that's the reason that Saquan can go for eight million yards and four and a half before contact. Okay. And I think you put another guy behind that group and he's 3.8 before contact. And we're still on schedule. But when you can't keep the group on the field.

When you can't keep the group on the field from a health standpoint and you got guys who are considering retirement and we've all been there before, I don't think you can sustain that greatness. I'm going to be fading the Philadelphia Eagles this year. I think the Cowboys win the division. I think Giants come in second. Well, I don't think that, let's deal with it one issue at a time. You said you hate the Eagles.

I'm sorry you feel that way. Secondly, the Roman Empire. The Roman Empire didn't go like 5 and 11 and then retool and then become the Roman Empire again. There's something to what the Eagles have done since we. We came along in 17 and won a ship that Howie and that group, they have a way of doing things from a front office standpoint that I think has put them. We'll see if they can, I agree with you, Kyle. I'm not saying I haven't given my division winner yet, but like it's not a hot take to fade the Eagles this year.

Like I think there's enough change going on there, the retooling, whatever you want to call it, that it could be a bumpy road this year. But I will say this. I push back on the Roman Empire analogy because Rome, when it was done it was done when the eagles had uh you know the the Travis fulgum Carson wence concussion to jadavian clownie era like they they got bad and then they got good again the thing I want because you hit a lot there Kyle and I wanted to jump in Kyle Kyle I also want to apologize to Todd Monkin I apologize to Browns fans earlier I said that Todd Monkin wouldn't be there

to see them enjoy the fruits of their labor with this trade of Miles Garrett. I still feel that way, but I don't think it's Todd Monkin's fault. I just want to make that perfectly clear. It's like trying to pull the sword from the stone. This guy's the 50 millionth guy. It's just the odds are against him. That's all I was saying. And I want to apologize to Todd Monkin,

who's worked very hard in this league a long time and has earned his opportunity to coach the Cleveland Browns. Hey, Kyle, how are your wife and kids? Jesus. They're awesome, making. How are your kids enjoying that playground, making? I called you about two months ago to inquire about that. I haven't heard back.

My playground? Yeah. They like the playground. That's good. Hey, how are your wife and kids, man? Can you answer interestingly this time? I will give you this. So Frankie, my eldest, is four now.

And Frankie and Sloan, four, and two, both great swimmers. They're amazing. Like, you know, hands free, set them, forget them. I watch them, but they're fantastic. Frankie now got a boogie board and she has figured out how to paddle out to the middle. She stands up on it like a surfer now. She's pretty close. I think I'm going to take her and try to get her to surf.

We've got two wetsuits coming today because we're doing our Montana trip here in the next week and a half. So that'll be nice and cold water. But we're ready. These girls are tough. They're fun. And yeah, I'm learning how to be a dad more and more every day. Have you had any lost teeth? No lost teeth.

Dude, Waylon lost the tooth before fucking baseball the other day, like during warmups, and just handed it to me, the coach. And when I got home, I was like, yo, I got your tooth. He's like, keep it. Like, he's over the tooth fairy thing, dude. Make some earrings for him or something. I told him I'd make a necklace. We've had two lost teeth.

Tooth a shell necklace. Yeah. The dumbest argument my wife and I have ever been in was. was her bringing up that the tooth fairy needs a name, that the kids are now asking, what is the name of the tooth fairy? Like there's an individual tooth fairy who comes for every individual tooth.

And so not only did the tooth fairy need to... It's a different fairy for every dude? Yeah. And not only did the tooth fairy need to leave some dollar bills. Leave some contact information. Going rate is five chickens. Five? Yeah, dog.

In your house? Five per. inflation's hit everywhere we got we got jingly money we never got paper money no kidding but this latest tooth fairy's name was lucy you know that makes sense but i said no that's not a thing the tooth fairy doesn't have a specific name i think you should give your kids euros and come up with a european name whatever you do don't cast the tooth fairy as somebody non-white big deal. For the third tooth,

Edris Alba is the tooth fairy. Yes. Edris. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, what's going on in there? The most handsome man on the planet. Like, just he's in your mouth.

My tooth fairy's name, Dantra Willis, dude. Watch the people melt down, dude. Watch people melt down. Yeah, about the tooth fairy. enough about the tooth fairy. Move us along since you got us to the tooth fairy. I got some questions about Kyle.

Just his personal life. Kyle, I don't know if you notice. I got a little bit of a new background here. Building the south of Minnesota. It looks great. My rig set up, bro.

Can I read you out the specs of this bad boy? This is the maiden voyage for this podcast. Give me some specs. Give me some specs. Oh, let me tell you, buddy. We got a 5090 in here.

Smooth. Smooth. 900 by fuck does that 3D CPU 4K 240 Hertz OLED monitor I went with the 32 not the 20s I love that

so I'm absolutely fucking just so I think you're going are you going single or multiple monitor so I have the big monitor and then underneath I have this little corsair touchscreen monitor that's like perfect for like right now or like if you're gaming you're in Discord

just super excited I want to talk to you about it I know you're a game or two you know I think that the the thing that I'm running into now And this is inspirational, Bo, I'm glad you said this. There's so many leaps being made in the video game industry that if you're not like year to year or once every two or three years with your upgrades, particularly on that graphics card, that's your 5090. Yeah.

And by the way, Chris and making the graphics cards and stuff, correct me if I'm wrong, Beau. That's the stuff that they're mining cryptocurrency with. Yeah, and then the motherboards too are getting expensive. It's all super expensive. the fact that you got your hands on a 50-90 and seemingly can still afford a house is amazing. I'm pretty thrilled.

Oh damn, dude. Must be nice. You can run everything. I got to get a new one. I think I have a 30-90. So you're like a couple Gs more. Couple. Couple.
