We all had different spots along the route. We got to watch them go by.
Starting point is 00:00:48 listen to the speeches. Sherelle Parker did speak for an incredibly long time. I think we're still waiting for her to finish. But how's everybody doing? Did either of you throw the beer that hit Howie between the eyes? I did not throw it. I'd like to think that somewhere in the middle of the circle there in front of the art museum that Cheryl Parker is still talking. So yeah, just it was an awesome day. Wrap it up, B. It was so bad. To be able, it's actually impressive to draw booze at a championship parade. That's an impressive. I mean, there was, were like two or three false finishes too she was like just to close it out
Starting point is 00:01:22 like four minutes later lady I had in the beginning I thought she was going to go game by game and it was like very specific moments where like Dana is I was I was expecting like and then in that week 14 loss where C.J. Usama missed that block on counter I was just waiting for that moment.
Starting point is 00:01:38 Give us an ELGS SES please that was one thing that would have actually got that would have paid it off yeah exactly like leave into that who wants to hear from you lady? Oh man Unbelievable. I turned to Emily and I was like, I'm sorry, I got to go do the show. Like, like, I'm going to have to miss all.
Starting point is 00:01:54 I'm going to have to miss the rest of the speeches because this thing's going to go till 5 p.m. Shout out to Charlie with the super chats in BTA, BTA. BTA, that was pretty good. I had to, I had to explain to Meg, to my mom and to my mother-in-law, all separate conversations, what BTA was. And the same with Rachel. He was like, but why? I mean, it's like a whole thing. Did you see the clip of Milton Williams' dad?
Starting point is 00:02:21 That was fantastic. You didn't see this? Milton was dad. He's like up on the float. He's got the 93 Williams. I saw. He's doing VTA, but he's doing it to himself.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Oh, that's good. I'm like imagining, like a Shrel Parker did not happen today. That's how you would open the show. Like you're doing that. Potentially still early. Now let's talk about the Howie thing, friend, because you have been there. You have been up on the float.
Starting point is 00:02:44 You were there for the parade, you know, on the Eagles buses. in 2018, beers flying all over you. You caught one? I caught more than one. One was caught on camera.
Starting point is 00:02:55 Okay. All right. Now you get in how many targets. Describe it to us how dangerous this could be. It's very dangerous. I told the story like a couple months ago on the podcast that like Alshan was on the float with us for the back half of the parade. And he took one to the back of the head.
Starting point is 00:03:12 And we were like like Alshan, are you all right? And he was like, yeah, I don't have to pass protocol for three more months. So it's, it's bad. I mean, especially when you get to the point right before you get to the art museum, you're sitting on the parkway and the bus has come to a stop because you have to wait for everybody on load. So, I mean, it's just raining cans from that point, all from distance. So you have to, everyone I was texting from the Eagles over the course of the week,
Starting point is 00:03:37 I was like, remember, keep your head on a swivel, keep your head on a swivel, keep your head on a swivel. Obviously, we saw what happened with Howie today, but I'm in the mark, it's like, it's so perfect. yeah i like i tech i was texting like back in the head i understand how we like this one's coming at you well i was talking when somebody busted their lip they was like he he turned and didn't see it coming just turned right into it uh another guy who was on the db bus uh he caught one in the back of the head so it's uh it's a you you have to be wary when you're up there's crazy they were on our float very early because i mean that's part of the fun though i mean it's it's a huge party the whole time and i remember there were you know there were some uh some elderly people like on our bus like older people that uh
Starting point is 00:04:16 around the organization who were like, oh, please, like, don't, tell them to stop, don't ask them to throw. We're like, are you kidding? Like, this is great. This is hilarious. So, yeah, there was, you know, some people didn't love it. But I thought it was phenomenal back then. Let's go, let's go around and just describe what your day was like today.
Starting point is 00:04:33 How you watched it. We'll start with you, Fran. So Meg, Francis and I jumped on the broad street line and went down to the stadium. So we were at the start point. We got down there probably around like 830 or so, parade started at 11. So we got there early. We were like second row behind the boundary.
Starting point is 00:04:52 So we got pretty good seats. Through around the football. The time to wait for Francis. That was how was his patience level? Yeah. So we were there early enough that we were able to like, you know, go in the grass like near Citizens Bank Park and like throw the football around a little bit, you know, have fun with people that are around.
Starting point is 00:05:07 He's in his element when there's like a crowd of people and he's just playing to the crowd. And they all it's comedy hour with him. So he was loving that. and yeah so we were there i mean we were on the the first subway back uh and we were back at our house by like 1215 and so we had plenty of time to take in the the broadcast of the parade uh you know see all the hilarity with the guys uh there were that had a few a few beers too many that's a little bit too much dog was like every single one who spoke yeah it was outstanding uh and you know plenty of time for speeches so it was uh it was a really fun day how about you professor
Starting point is 00:05:39 yeah we had uh uh so my my mom is your town you're nicely done you're nicely decked out in fresh Super Bowl swag for the audio listeners. That's right. That's right. This is a different version of me. I don't have my laptop. Like, you know, got a, got a beer going there. Yeah, this is great.
Starting point is 00:05:54 I haven't even charted the film yet. You deserve it. I mean, yeah. This is a, I don't even know you anymore. It's a while. I know. I know. I'm going to let the film just wash.
Starting point is 00:06:02 I'm going to, I'm going to shower in the film for the next, for the next month or so. I'm going to go very slowly. But, uh, well, I mean, because there were only 21 defensive place in the first half, right? Incredible. Incredibly. I have to, you know, know, hold my nose during the first one because it was a successful play for the Chiefs,
Starting point is 00:06:17 but the next 20 were not. Yeah, it was great. My mom's in town. She's here in studio now, Evren and Emily are as well. We walked over to Logan Square, where the fountain is. They set up a big screen there, and we watched pretty much everything from there. They came right by. You know, they come right by there, and it's pretty easy to get to the boundary there as well.
Starting point is 00:06:39 I thought it was a little bit less crowded maybe than seven years ago. At least it felt that way. Jim Pearson is the thief of joy. Sure. It was just easy to get to see everything. Yeah, it was great. Everyone was two months old last time, so he was not with me in that chaos. And so this time we got to enjoy it together. How does this, I mean, you were there at the game, obviously. Yeah, incredible. How does this event compare just like in the stack rackings of the things that you enjoy as a fan? Well, in terms of the enjoyment, nothing can beat just like that weekend in New Orleans. I mean, it was unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:07:17 I mean, from the adrenaline rush of getting to the show on time on Friday, getting to be on Radio Row and seeing everybody, that was awesome. Having the rest of your life with that kid. That's right. That's right. You guys see how tall Greg Cosell was. That made me last time. I was very surprised. I mean, Cosell is surprising.
Starting point is 00:07:36 I mean, it's surprisingly tall. I played basketball. in college. Did he? Okay, well, see if I had known that. Maybe I would have...
Starting point is 00:07:42 I was surprised. I was like, that's Greg Kosel, except he's too tall. It was weird. But yeah, no, he's impressive.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Impressive height. Greg. Greg Co. Cole. Do we work on that? Nah. Nah. Greg Coast XL.
Starting point is 00:08:00 Okay, not bad. And then, yeah, just the whole weekend was so cool. You guys are still working on the Greg Cocello. Tall, like hella,
Starting point is 00:08:08 Hell, Tall. Let us know if you have any good ideas for nicknames for Tall Greg Coasell in the chat. Hashtag Greg Coasella Tall. Julia's doing a great job showing some of my footage from videos I took from a very nice. Another super chat from Evil Genius Raccoon who says Dane is. It just says thoughts about Oasis. The stat pushed as an alt to EPA.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Oh yeah. I got to talk to the. I think it's Eric, right? I got to talk to Eric about exactly how Oasis is different than win probability added, which is what it seemed to be. Favorite Oasis song? Favorite Oasis song, Acquias, I think. It was a B-side.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Yeah. I saw them in 1994 for like $20 from the first row. And I know they're doing a reunion tour now, and you cannot get first row tickets for $20 this time. So I probably won't be there. I feel like the Gala, the Noel Liam Liam Gallagher relationship, somewhat similar to the Jalen Hertz, Nick Siriani relationship. They have come together, and I thought it was interesting to have Jalen really for the first time ever say something nice about Nick Siriani during his speech today. Maybe it's because he wasn't asked.
Starting point is 00:09:29 You're right. Well, take us through your experience. I won't very quickly. But just the Jailen Hertz thing that he said about Siriani was. He went on for a while. He went on for a while. He said, thank you for your intentionality, fight, passion, and seeing this. Can we curse on this episode?
Starting point is 00:09:46 Because they cursed so much, I guess not. Seeing this poop through. That is not what he said. I think the intentionality was especially good because I feel like he's almost used that as a backhanded insult in the past. Where they've asked him, like, you know, why is Nick so great or whatever? He just said he's very intentional. And it didn't sound like it was necessarily something he approved. Sure, and you could also like that...
Starting point is 00:10:12 I do think you're right that the words were very specifically chosen. Like passion is like, it's not necessarily the way that she only goes about it. And then seeing it through, it's like, thank you for not getting fired and getting us to the Super Bowl. Yes, but you know what? Good for him. So great. I took both kids to... We were like on, between like Christian and Carpenter on Broad Street. Got it.
Starting point is 00:10:37 And shout out to Casey who was like I got I got Jane on my shoulders and it was like I mean it was super packed It was like a real bottleneck And Casey was like he was my fullback He was just he was just weaving through Hold in my hand and then like
Starting point is 00:10:52 And obviously like if it's kids coming through people We'll give just a little bit of an inch of bunch I missed the stroller days for that reason Well we took that was the best thing about the scroller It was just a it was just a you know an umbrella stroller One okay and then like there's a there's a there's a school there, but you could only get in if you had like a pass, but we just, I dumped
Starting point is 00:11:11 the stroller inside the gates of the school that I could then come back and get it later. That was smart, yeah. And we went with a couple friends. And I was very impressed with their, their persistence. Jane was on my shoulders the whole time. Kiki worked his way up right up to the front. It's great.
Starting point is 00:11:26 And then they had a good time. What was he most excited to see? Oh, he was most excited to set off a little confetti cannon. Nice. That he was given by a friend of ours. But he was up there. I think Jalen actually came down right where we were. I didn't see him do that. But people around us were very excited. And, yeah, just getting to see everybody go by.
Starting point is 00:11:44 It's not a fun. You would be very proud that everyone was very happy to see Nick Gates and Fred Johnson. Like, they were very prominent on their bus. Were you fighting? Nick Gates was like short with Fred Johnson and chugging a beer. Fred Johnson looked like he was like the main act. Like he was like, like had his arms out. He's obviously a big guy already.
Starting point is 00:12:03 And he must have recognized you. I feel like we did make eye contact. Yeah, yeah. Oh, my see like a guy. Yeah, it's like, I always see at the airport. Or when I'm out eating. And there were, yeah, there were a bunch of guys walking down. I feel like Cooper DeGine was doing a lot of walking,
Starting point is 00:12:18 although it could also have just been like drunk and rambling. Couldn't find the bus, maybe. I think he was not seeing all the way straight. But that's okay. Good for him. No, that was great. Oh, I should mention also that we were with DFOPs, Kevin McAllister and Aaron.
Starting point is 00:12:35 and their lovely families. So yeah, that was awesome. Awesome. Yeah, a lot of fun. I mean, it's a beautiful day of like civic pride. Like everybody coming from everywhere, like whatever street you're walking on, you see all kinds of crowds,
Starting point is 00:12:53 like going in the same direction, all for the same thing in a very like peaceful joy. It's for the city. It is a beautiful thing. We were riding the subway back home, home after and there were we were surrounded by a lot of drunk Philadelphians and you know on a typical Friday after the midday if there were a lot of drunk Philadelphians on the subway I'd be a little bit worried about
Starting point is 00:13:17 I just don't talk to everybody he was talking to everyone to that he was it was the best time he like everyone had fun with him he had fun with everybody it was a great day I did you know there were a lot of clips going around of Sequin I mean Sequin is yeah I mean the guys is is the most popular guy in the city right he's he's he's he's He's been unbelievable. He pulls the ball boy up. Dependent depending on who you're talking to.
Starting point is 00:13:40 The population of the city minus one. You know, he's pulling the ball boy out. You know, shotgun and beers. Yeah, he knows what he's doing. Yeah. I mean, he's, I would say, as expected, everything you saw from him today, like, you know, I wouldn't expect it. As Sequin takes the mic, it's like the, it's like the dream scene in the Princess bride where there's just one person booing and it's day and is.
Starting point is 00:14:04 I have been slandered so much on the show. I don't even know why I... I mean, we all know it. I hope everybody in the chat enjoyed, everyone that's local. And if you were not local and you watched on any of the news broadcast, did you guys see the speeches
Starting point is 00:14:28 played back through the news broadcast yet? It's very funny. Oh, my God, it was unbelievable. they have to beep out stuff? It was so bad because they miss every beep. Like you heard every single curse word. And then they went so long after with muting it. It was like, mother effing, and you heard it.
Starting point is 00:14:47 And then there was like 25 seconds of silence and you missed the speech. We're really sorry that George Milata, he's really excited about everything that's going on. I'll be like apologizing for it. Ooh, Greg. Greg Co. Stilt. Yes, Greg Co. Stilt's a good one. That's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:15:04 I like Coast Dills. There's been a few good ones. Greg Coece elevated. Greg Coece, how's the air up there? It's a good one. Greg Coe stretch me out, fam. I'm not sure. That's all right.
Starting point is 00:15:18 Greg Coast Elevator. That's pretty good. That's a good. Oh, that is good. That might be that might be the best one. Julie, I'm sorry for not shooting in. Shout out, Brian. Horizontally.
Starting point is 00:15:29 Yeah. For job by my part. Well, you know, you know, it's tough. one's one's better for social one's better for the show which way do you which way do you go yeah yeah for me I was going more horizontal because it was it was like
Starting point is 00:15:43 it wouldn't have been a good angle for me we were like we were too close and in order to get the wide shot I don't know yeah I should have I should have mixed it up more bad job by me was Francis on your shoulders though it was on my shoulders the once the parade started how are the shoulders pretty rough I showered after I got best so I didn't shower before I showered after and uh you take you're
Starting point is 00:16:03 like you're up there for a go ahead well it's like you got like the brute you know it's like it's like bruising on the shoulders like i had a little bit of that uh but i think i'll i had i had a lot of pringles crumbs in my hair jane was munching on some pringles and who we bought like some snacks down like to try and keep you know keep knock but we the people that were next to us they came from like out past uh past state college like towards like williams port so it's like three they got a up at 3.30 in the morning to get there first thing, just the outstanding commitment. But this woman had a giant book bag full of snacks and was like, we're not going to eat all these. Like, do you know what's up? And he, Francis had like cookies, pretzels, a fruit by the foot.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Uh, as the, where the parade's getting closer, he's like inching closer over towards the back. I'm like, no, get back. Get over here. Uh, but shout out to them. They came very well prepared. that's very funny the little group that we were in of friends of the friends that had like a thing of like a big box of cheese it's like 45 cheezits and then at one point she just starts throwing them into the crowd
Starting point is 00:17:12 like who wants cheese that's just like flinging them all around people helping people there we go for me it was such a cool extension of bourbon street Sunday night too because that was also like a community of Eagles fans not necessarily all local not necessarily all living in Philly but it was just such a great
Starting point is 00:17:30 like we walked from the stadium all the way to the Marini, all the way to Frenchman Street, which meant that we walked the entire length of Bourbon Street. And that was incredible, too. Like, I mean, just like people, you know, throwing beads at each other, like, you know, doing Eagles' chants. And that was the, like, immediate, you know, the thrill right after the game type mood.
Starting point is 00:17:50 And then today it was like a much calmer, relaxed, just kind of happy. You know, like you're talking about all the drunk people. I thought it was a more relaxed happy drunk this time. Oh, for sure. Yeah. Then maybe it was seven years ago when there was like this like like relief drunk. You know what I mean? Which can be a little bit more intense.
Starting point is 00:18:09 Right. Not necessarily not angry by any means. But, you know, I thought this time it was a little bit more like, yeah, we know how to do this. You know, we're doing this again. And I thought that was really, I thought that was a really cool, cool thing. All right. People were taking pictures with with Feldman on Bergman. Which were like, these guys came up to me and they were like,
Starting point is 00:18:31 get stuff, it's the effing professor. We got to get pictures with the professor. And so like, yeah, sure, you know. And then they're like, which one's Feldman? They didn't know what Feldman looked like. But once they learned which one Feldman was, they were taking pictures with Feldman too. The chat was on fire.
Starting point is 00:18:45 You don't talk about sneaky tall. That's a good one too. It's all drink of water, Feldman. The chat was on fire when you guys called in on Sunday night. And Feldman got to come on the show. The chat loved it. Yeah, I noticed I rewatch that. And I actually did a screenshot.
Starting point is 00:19:01 of the chat to Feldman where there were like six comments in a row that were just Feldman exclamation points outstanding yeah it was paid actor not still not the real one I believe but there you go it's okay all right quick break to hear from our sponsors

Starting point is 00:22:31 Okay, let's talk about some of the potential suspects for Howard Rosamund. I mean, you got Dylan McMahon. You got John... Where was it? What part of the city was it? Right between the ice. No, I know. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:22:45 It was not caught on camera. It looked relatively fresh. It was not caught on camera. It's very suspicious. I mean, with all the cameras, Listen, I had somebody else text me the same thing, but this feels like a fake. There are so many people with phones. None of them caught it.
Starting point is 00:23:00 Listen, that seems impossible. The cell phone service is terrible when it's there. So it's possible it was captured and we'll get this coming out later. I will say that, like, as the parade was going by us, I think like 80% of people were taking video of the bus going by. So it seems impossible that nobody got. So you think that there's a possibility that how we staged this? I mean, we didn't. know about the beers because like I think the worst way to actually watch the
Starting point is 00:23:26 parade is to probably be at the parade sure so I'll watch the broadcast later but he went up there and he yelled I bleed for this city and I was like that's a little dramatic I mean that's like you know like bleed I mean like you know I didn't even know yeah I mean it caught right somebody said they thought that maybe he tried to crush a beer can not knowing it was a full beer can hmm I would say like seeing the video of him walking off the bus it looked fresh so my guess is that it was at that that high volume area that I was talking about that's the most dangerous here the end here the end that that would be my guess uh I see some some suspects in the chat somebody says Christian Ellis is a possibility I saw Lou Riddick mentioned I thought it's
Starting point is 00:24:05 Hassan Reddick Hassan Reddick's a possible I think it could have been responsible I mean there's listen it could be Joe Shane there's a lot of people out there ZB is in the chat maybe ZB will get a text about it during the show we'll uh he can he can call in yeah I don't think Zeeb would like this line of questioning It's like a man got hit. He could have died. Like the slap. Is he be...
Starting point is 00:24:32 Is he be on route to where he was going? No, he did not go. Zach is in the chat. He says, great fade for Howie today. He commented on my waiting until afterwards to shower. He could not shower in this morning. Yeah. Which, frankly, I agree with. How do you get your day started without...
Starting point is 00:24:52 Yeah. I guess I got... I had played playing. to do this we're going to get ready. So I was like, you know, I'll shower after. I know I'm going to shower before I come down here to the studio. And I know I'm going to be sweat because I had like four layers on for the parade. Yeah, but that makes it even worse. You got to.
Starting point is 00:25:04 Yeah, I would feel gross. Yeah, same. I felt okay. Okay. I'll sleep. I'll sleep okay. Thanks. Yeah, let us know in the chat.
Starting point is 00:25:14 Who else you think might have been, might have been responsible. Let's talk about some of the speeches, which, you know, they were good. Yeah. I think everybody was a little drunk. I think it's really hard to live up to last time. It's hard to have it you possibly follow. Kelsey, first of all, shout out to Vanya Sacks.
Starting point is 00:25:29 Great to see him again. Yeah. Electric performance. I mean, I mean, I still can't get over this short. I texted. She could not have been talking longer. Get off the stage so bad. It's not about you.
Starting point is 00:25:42 I was so bad. I was so proud that I was able to text to you during the national anthem at the Super Bowl. Because the guy, what was his name? It was something trombone. Trombone shorty. Trumbone Shorty. There you go. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:54 It's just uncanny. Yes. And I, yeah. And I, and I, and I, and I blue skyed that the Eagles were, are undefeated this season when someone plays an azal anthem with one of their names being the same instrument that they play. Yeah. And the exact thing that I texted about was it's a lot like Doug Analytics. I mean, he's just like, he's born to do this. I mean, the guy's name is trombone.
Starting point is 00:26:13 What would your name be if you, if, like, the best thing that you do? All right. That's her, that's now your first. Well, this, did you see that the, the comment in the chat? Yes. Like, Casey picked up the gene. Yeah, he did. That is absolutely passed down.
Starting point is 00:26:29 That's an inherited trait. Super chat from Nikki Loves Music, who says, Peckness, my great, Jeffrey Howie, Stout. Now, I'm assuming this is from a, if you're in charge of the organization standpoint. In which case, it's tough because, like, I don't know what a peck is getting you really for any of those guys. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Yeah, you kind of need all of them long term, right? Well, I think you could make the case in one way or another that if Jeffrey's the owner, he's going to have a GM who operates like Howie. That's what he wants his GM to do. You could make the same case that if Howey's a GM, he's going to operate the same way and maybe the owner doesn't matter as much. I could be convinced on either side of that argument. But Stout, like, you know, one year of Stout's not going to do much for you,
Starting point is 00:27:22 but you might want him for the long term. I think probably, I think you... I think it probably nest Jeffrey. Probably. Relative to the other owners. Yeah. I think that's probably the most important thing. I think that's probably right.
Starting point is 00:27:36 You could do, that's the most important one, and then you go from there. Yeah, I think that sounds right. I mean, that's, yeah. They all work well together. That's true. So is there,
Starting point is 00:27:50 is there a potential Eagles front office underling who could have been responsible for the beer can, hoping that, you know, you're trying to, you're trying to pave the way to ascend to the GM throw. That sounds like a question for Zach. Yeah, who's an ex-man up?
Starting point is 00:28:07 I mean, if the worst had happened there, you know, what, I'm just looking for suspects. I mean, I'm not saying, yeah, I mean, you know, you got to be ready for any situation. Yeah. Yeah, I'm trying to think of who, you know. I mean, there are probably a lot of people who,
Starting point is 00:28:28 Yeah. There's a lot of assistant GMs. That's true. And VPs. Well, you got Alec Caliby and John Ferrari. Yeah. I think Alic Calabey would be the one. Probably.
Starting point is 00:28:39 One of my favorite parts of the mic'd up was, is it John Ferrari who Nick is talking to in the headset? And he says, John, how much are we up by? Because the math was too hard to do. Like, you're up by so much that he was like, what are we up by here? 28? I love that.
Starting point is 00:28:54 It was fantastic. That was very good. Super chat from Syria. Johnny's Buzzcut, who says the Vox Populi spoke. The majority of the fans seemingly were in Kelly Green. When are we going to go back to the 80s, 90s branding? Come on, Jeffrey. I have a take on this, actually.
Starting point is 00:29:12 I saw one jersey today, which I didn't love, and I'll tell you why. It was a Kelly Green Dawkins. Which he never wore. It's anachronistic, right? Yeah, right. I get it. It's the most popular player and the best jersey. But he literally never wore.
Starting point is 00:29:26 But he literally never wore a jersey. Because they also didn't do it as a throwback when you play it either. They wear it two times a year. That's fine. Right. I agree. Docs never worn it. Yeah. I agree. Now, I think even worse than that is when you have a player from back then in the Midnight Green.
Starting point is 00:29:40 I saw a West, in New Orleans, there was a West Hopkins. 48 West Hopkins with Midnight Green, which he also never wore. And it is also an inferior jersey. Yeah. I mean, I thought that was even. That's worse. That's even worse. Especially because it's easy to get a Kelly Green jersey.
Starting point is 00:29:55 Yeah. Yeah. So. So, Luca in the chat, Tom Donahoe. Zach says his seven-year-old explained to him what BTA means.
Starting point is 00:30:05 There you go. Other way around. Everyone asked me. Now, would you call it a day off if he's just sitting there on the chat? Julia.
Starting point is 00:30:12 Julia. For the hard, no. Wait, is Zach, at least going somewhere tomorrow? I think he's doing something different,
Starting point is 00:30:19 yes. Okay. You guys talked about on the show last night. Oh, yeah. Yeah. He's going,
Starting point is 00:30:23 they're going to show. He's going to a play that has music. There we go. Okay, got it. Yeah. Okay. I hate to tell you, it's a musical.
Starting point is 00:30:33 A.J., although I actually think it might not be a musical. It's just the play that has occasional songs, maybe? Yeah. I thought AJ, I actually liked A.J.'s maybe the best because he had a quick message. Yeah. It was a pointed message. And he delivered it very well.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Yeah. And the message was good. You know, they called me a diva. They called me all these things. you get you can get stuff wrong about me all the time but get this right yeah i'm an effing champion yes that was awesome that was the mic last exclamation point i enjoyed jordan singing i think that was on that was uh that was on brand for him sure um the next one i mean the problem is that i missed half of it was landin uh because that was yeah it was like he cursed once and right like they like
Starting point is 00:31:19 oh then they just started getting it out he cut out the audio because he i'm pretty sure it was lander who like cursed once they apologized and then he cursed again and then they then they held it for a long time after um but yeah i i think the the speeches overall were just okay but yeah those yeah those probably the highlights i think a j's was my favorite i think ages yeah pretty pretty clearly in fact like pretty by a lot i would say cj j j j was disappointing i thought like the bta thing i know but like i think the bt i thought there was there was potential with him to be like super juiced up and he he went the the calm route it's hard because you don't don't, if you try to go Kelsey and then you, and then you fall short, you kind of look like a
Starting point is 00:32:00 jabrone. Yeah. That's not even worth trying, but then, that's true, you know. Like, it felt like Landon brought that energy, but I don't think he was, he did a nice job of not being, going too far Kelsey still, still be, I thought he was still true to himself. I would say the worst was, was probably the exciting whites. Uh, I was, it was very funny because they weren't supposed to speak and then you hear you know Bob Lang the director who's in charge of communications tell Dave Spadere like just
Starting point is 00:32:30 just announce them as the exciting whites like okay can you leave Bob Lang finally broke through after 25 years and then their speech was fine but then Reed tries to go into dreams and nightmares yeah it's a little bit one bar in and be like if you're going to do it you got to do it man yeah I was tough I was kind of hoping
Starting point is 00:32:51 that Jordan would would sing the no one likes a song as opposed to we are the champions I know BG sang it a little bit but he didn't get the crowd going I thought that would have been a neat parade tradition that everybody sings that song and that didn't quite happen but
Starting point is 00:33:07 Zach So Zach says Kelly Green is like a mailbag episode Everyone enjoys it but the owner only reluctantly allows it twice a year That's good That is really good That's fantastic
Starting point is 00:33:19 That's pretty good And then BG, which some people were leading us to believe was going to be a definitive one way or the other. Yeah, this is it for me. Like, thank you Philadelphia. Or like, let's go, let's go one more time. Were you expecting it?
Starting point is 00:33:35 Were you expecting one? I was sort of expecting him to come down one way or the other. I had a tweet ready to go like as if Oh, really? A call that I would hit send and be first to market on it. What was the tweet? I thought he was going to announce that he was coming back. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:33:49 Yeah. I don't know. He was talking like, The way he talked about it yesterday, I thought he said he was talking to his wife, and it was such a fairy tale ending. And I thought he was leaning the other way. After the game, I thought so, too.
Starting point is 00:34:00 But it wasn't the one he talked about it, it wasn't that he was leaning that way because he was ready to retire. It was like he was leaning that way because of the story, because of the fairy tale. And he mentioned Jerome Bettis doing it in Detroit in his final Super Bowl.
Starting point is 00:34:15 That's how he was talking after the game. But in the speech, he certainly made it sound like, I don't know, maybe he wants to run it back. I thought he said, we're getting ready for next year, but then he said, like, no matter what, I'll be part of this or something. Yeah. He was, like, kind of going back and forth. It's almost like he's trying to convince himself of one way or the other, maybe.
Starting point is 00:34:33 I was going to say, it's like watching an episode of Severance, where it's like, oh, there are crumbs either way where, like, if you go back, you know. Yeah, three months from now, we can go back at this speech and say, oh, we should have seen it coming because of that little line. Potentially. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:34:50 What do you guys think in the chat? Let us know if you think BG is coming back. And also, do you want him to come back? Like, it's kind of, the fairy tale thing is really cool. Sure. But also, if he wants to play, he deserves it. Yeah, and I would guess that he would probably still be good. I mean, he was awesome this year.
Starting point is 00:35:06 He was awesome this year. So, so good. And he only played, what, 13, 14 snaps on Sunday? But he drew a hole. He actually drew two holds. They only called one of them. I thought he, you know, he looked strong. I mean, he didn't, it was so cool.
Starting point is 00:35:20 It was so cool to watch them warming up and then we go out on the field. It was great. All right. One more break to hear from our sponsors and then we'll come back on the other side. I believe... I believe she's still talking.

Super chat from DJ, aka Mr. Sandman, who says that Eagles trophy case getting awfully crowded lately. Little Eagles emoji. Nice job. I want to see a good sicko mock-up, the usual suspects with just different general manager heads on there
Starting point is 00:38:45 for who threw the beer in Howie. I mean, you got Mickey Loomis. You got Chris Ballard talked about John Robinson. I mean, you could throw Tom Donahoe in there. A lot of Joe Shane, John Robinson, yeah. Yeah. Lippia. Lipia for real.
Starting point is 00:39:03 I don't know. I mean, I don't know. We're having fun. Yeah. It could be anybody. Could be anybody. But it was probably just a fan trying to give him a drink. Well, you don't know that.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Dana is you did tweet something the other day I don't know if it was tweeted or blue sky whatever it was but I usually do both tried to we will give one one little bit of just historical significance here for the Eagles by EPA per drive yeah combined offense and defense yeah the best Super Bowl champion
Starting point is 00:39:42 of the of the decade or of the the century yeah I mean as far back as true media goes so yeah since 2000 the last 25 seasons it was the best combined EPA per drive like said that's regular season plus playoffs uh i filtered out garbage time in the tweet but when you don't filter it out it's still true uh best super bowl champion of the last 25 years and the best of any team overall uh in the best in the last five seasons and the fifth best of the 798 uh seasons in the true media database but the the the four that were better none of them won the super
Starting point is 00:40:21 So the 2007 Patriots, the 05 Colts, the 01 Rams, and the 19 Ravens were the only four that were better. And they were only slightly better. And it's kind of crazy, right? Because all year we've been talking about this offense could be much better than this and so on. But by EPA per drive, the offense was pretty good. I mean, it was the schedule and all back. Yeah. And actually, I'm actually starting to wonder if we should keep talking about DVOA.
Starting point is 00:40:48 Yeah. After Aaron Schatz said this was the 30. ninth best Super Bowl champion like what the hell are you talking about like that is like outreaches to say that I mean this was a dominant team all season yeah and by EPA Per Drive which is what DVOA is kind of
Starting point is 00:41:04 a you know the main thing that it uses is something similar it's the best Super Bowl champion of the last 25 years like how could it possibly be the 39th best of all the time? Well those other 38 teams didn't allow Xavier worthy to have over 100 yards oh I mean it's unbelievable that the Eagles overcame like a Jerry Rice ass performance uh in the Super Bowl
Starting point is 00:41:21 I mean, just amazing. The fact that he caught that, you know, there was a 50 plus yard touchdown against the entire second and third string defense. I know. It was so good because people were talking about how like, you know, no one was even paying attention then. It was garbage time. And then I was like, I was like, yeah, no one was paying attention.
Starting point is 00:41:38 And, and everyone was like, are they talking about when Xavier Worthy's caught the touchdown against Tristan McCollum and Sidney Brown? And he just said that on his own. Like he watched the game without me, obviously. It was just at home. And I was like, yeah, like my seven-year-old noticed. that that was against the second string.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Like, what are you, like, what do you? It's just, um, anyway, they, they scored 16 points on their last four snaps on offense. Like, it was touchdown, two point conversion, touchdown two point conversion. Those were their last four snaps, obviously all in garbage time. I was actually angry that the mic'd up included those. Like, I think it's like, um, bad, bad journalism. I'm with, I'm with Emily on being angry at you for being angry at that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:18 I, I just think it's, it's just like, like, it has nothing to do with anything. Like it was after the Gatorade back. They're completionists. They're just trying to make the chiefs look better. And they didn't look good. I don't know. I think it was fine. Did you have a favorite mic'd up moment, Fran?
Starting point is 00:42:34 Um, I mean, Devante's, the interaction between Jalen and Devante on the sideline was a good one. The interaction with Jalen and Sequin was a really good one. Yeah. I thought all of the Seekwan leadership stuff was awesome. It was very, like I thought his reaction to the OPI was so good. Like it was, it was like when he was. was like who the hell cares like who the hell cares we're still here i thought that was so i thought
Starting point is 00:42:56 that was awesome i was that's what i was trying to say to feldman right it's like it's like at the same time you're angry you're like what the hell like we might need those points sure the night that it came out it was at wednesday night um you know i i was explaining to meg like this is one of my favorite pieces of football content yeah all year because like it's the last game and all of nfl film's power goes into this game so like all the exo breakdowns are excellent the micdups are There are so many cameras. So I, yeah, I love that mic top segment. Super chat from Mikey Faced who says petty danis is the best danes.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Well, we all know that. Is there another kind? I thought the defense doing the breathe thing was awesome. It was so funny to me that it was like, CJ Gardner Johnson doing that. I thought that was so great. And that it's CJGJ makes it even makes it even better. But I thought it was like exactly the right thing to be doing there. And I also thought, and maybe some of it is just the way it's edited because the editors know who won the game.
Starting point is 00:43:52 right but the way that the Eagles players were talking to each other and calm you know like like we're here you know just focus play at a time whatever and then you hear Travis Kelsey like trying to urge his team on to have more juice like it's like it's the Super Bowl man like how do you how do you need to even say that uh I thought there was a bit of a contrast there and again like it might not be like if the chiefs had won it would have been it might have sounded different you know what I mean like knowing what happened but I thought it was just really like I was I was I was Like Chris Jones, we might have to dig a little bit deeper. It was very funny.
Starting point is 00:44:26 Oh, yeah. They're down 24-0. Yeah, yeah. Just a little bit. You might. Yeah, I might have to. You might have to change something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:32 That was great. I'm looking in the super in the chat. And there is one suspect that we did not mention who honestly, probably the most obvious. A new office coordinator in the NFL. Yes. Yeah. I mean, I'm going to tell like Chip Kelly. I mean, there might be an APB out for him at this point.
Starting point is 00:44:50 If he's been seen in the Philadelphia area. anytime recently that's maybe that's why Zach's not here is he's the highest driving him high state off his head off his tailing it out of state with chip in his trunk somewhere that he's trying to get him out of Dodge the other funny part of the watching the parade
Starting point is 00:45:10 from home watching the speeches was as I think it was Jalen I think it was Jalen that was up speaking and the drone kept flying right in front and right in front and I'm just expecting Don to come through with like a baseball bat just smashed the drone down I was that was a because it kept coming back and I was like someone's gonna have a great shot of this
Starting point is 00:45:29 is that is that like an official drone that they're allowed I don't think normally they don't they don't allow drones and no they were like they were talking about that on the on the broadcast that is like no they during the broadcast they were like yeah it sounded like there was like a horde of bees like around us because it was just like the buzzing from the all the drones there technology had its best uh you know working to yeah exactly everything uh they they they like stopped the the Ravens game remember because yeah There was a drone. I thought drones at events like this.
Starting point is 00:45:57 I guess maybe when it's out on the street, it's hard to regulate. But I was a little surprised that there were so many drones around. Yeah, friend, do you want to come on the show and tell us what your favorite part of the parade was? I don't know if Emily would like that. Oh, he doesn't have to. Okay. Oh, he doesn't want to.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Okay. All right. He can just show off his jersey with the awesome stitching if he wants. He's got these. He's got the Super Bowl stitching. Yeah. Oh, he's got the Super Bowl stitch. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 00:46:24 He got these, like, stitches on eBay. There we go. There we go. All right. What a stunt. That's awesome. There it is. Nice job.
Starting point is 00:46:33 That's it. Fantastic. Yeah, everyone is old enough to remember the loss two years ago. That was the first season that he watched closely. And it was not, it wasn't fun to lose for him either. Now, were you going shoulders with him too? I, my back is not. I can't.
Starting point is 00:46:50 He's too big. So, no, we were, Emily was able to lift him enough. that um you made her lifting she doesn't have a bad back like i do oh this is our ranges uh look when you have a bad back you have a bad back i don't know what i can say like uh carrying all the weight of those film breakdowns we know who's carrying the family well i mean we all know who's carrying the family already uh a j j jones in the chat saying the buzzing was really loud down there from the from the drones so no interesting backing that up unless it's the buzzing about chip kelly one of the two yeah we're just
Starting point is 00:47:26 trying to think of the other GMs who how he's fleeced in a trade but yeah I don't know um what about you any other any other uh miced up miced up oh man the whole thing was incredible I was like I was like bawling like crying during the the Cooper de Gene pick six part
Starting point is 00:47:47 just because they showed it so many times and that was for me and how excited Zach Bond was about it that was so cool that was really cool yeah and it was for me just like going back to the way I lived it live. I mentioned on the post game like for me that was the moment in the stands that was the most like adrenaline rush like rain about to come out of my head like we were just jumping
Starting point is 00:48:08 on top of each other in the stands like that was the moment that for me obviously the game's not over at that point but that's the moment where it goes from being a kind of close game in the early early part of the game to oh my god I think we're going to just just blow them out you know like and and that was the it opened the door to the blowout in a way that was like the biggest jump in my confidence of, it was probably like the biggest, like, you know, technically the biggest win probability added or whatever as well, but like it was also just like,
Starting point is 00:48:37 and so getting to see it from so many angles and hearing all the different announcers, that was really cool. The Smitty, somebody posted like 20 different languages of the Smitty touchdown, and one of them was Turkish. And so Evern and I watched the Turkish call of that like 20 times in a row the other night. That was also a lot of fun.
Starting point is 00:48:57 Could have been you. Yeah, they asked me. So I know the guy, I've written back and forth with the guy who does the play-by-play. And when I lived there, they actually did ask me if I wanted to do color commentary, but they only had the rights to college football. And I was like, you know, I don't know a lot about college football. I frankly don't really like college football. So I didn't want to spend my, like.
Starting point is 00:49:17 But there's a stepping stone to get you to the NFL to the big game. Maybe, maybe. I don't know. I don't know. How? Yeah. That's true. That's true.
Starting point is 00:49:25 What were you laughing at before? Zach dropping Chip Kelly quotes in the chat. Sounds about right. Barrett with a super chat. It says Ruben Frank recently shared the origin of gang green. Philly beatwriters came up with it on a flight back from a bird stomping. Can we please get a crossover show of all the Eagles podcasters brainstorming a nickname for this defense?
Starting point is 00:49:51 I don't know about the crossover episode, but I can try to come up with a name. I haven't heard a single good. Yeah, it's hard. There have been so many that people have said and none of them work. It's just, it's such a fundamentally sound good defense, right?
Starting point is 00:50:06 Like, it's good in almost a boring way. It's like we're going to play cover four and the underneath defenders are going to match the routes really well. It's like it's hard to come up with a nickname for that. You know, like it's like... The match patch. Match match.
Starting point is 00:50:21 Case and point. What to hell? That's, it's exactly. exactly my point. It's like, all right, one of the things they're good at.
Starting point is 00:50:29 Yeah, and the underneath defenders are really good at matching the, the tackle spackles. The tackle. Spackles. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:50:41 we got to workshop that. Yeah, I mean, it's too late now. You got a hundred. They've already won. They're 140 episodes or 139 now.
Starting point is 00:50:49 But it's all the season starts. We've got to work on it. You got a time to figure it out. If you are listening, and not watching Julia has been interspersing a bunch of the scenes from the parade
Starting point is 00:51:01 throughout this episode I think if you check out the YouTube page and all the shorts that we have you'll get to see a bunch of those scenes as well
Starting point is 00:51:09 Josh Sweat we're in the Chris Long fur coat yeah was a nice touch Chris Long mentioned that a player would wear it on his podcast earlier this week
Starting point is 00:51:19 and we were speculating at breakfast too it would be my guess was Cam Jurgians to believe it was going to be dumb but Oh, interesting. Would it fit, Dom?
Starting point is 00:51:28 I think so. Probably, right? I actually changed my answer from earlier. Dom's speech was the best. I said, I love you, Philly, goodbye. That's all I got. Yeah, that's all I got. Yeah, that's good.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Yeah, I think they made it. I don't think that Don wanted to speak. He did not want it. Yeah, of course not. Yeah, that was good. Who would you have liked to hear from that you didn't get to hear from? That's a good one.
Starting point is 00:51:53 I would have liked to hear from Jalen Carter. Yeah. I would have liked to hear from Zach Bond. Just main characters from the season-wise. Yeah. Yeah. And then, like, who could have cut a good promo that I would have liked to hear? That would be a little bit more...
Starting point is 00:52:10 I think Fred Johnson would have given a good... Oh, yeah. For sure. Yeah. Would have given a good one. Based on the footage I saw of Quignan Mitchell... He was not in shape. Not in shape.
Starting point is 00:52:26 You haven't seen it yet? I saw him walking. There was... That one... Walking on the street with, like, a... What did he have? have? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:34 I don't know what he had with him. There's one where like James Bradbury like cut off an interview because he like he's like stop talking. But he like basically like he did James Bradbury, unbelievable teammate and excellent job in this situation. I just understanding like I have to cut this interview off. Getting him away from before something bad happens. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:52 But Quinnian enjoyed himself today, which rightfully. So you those young guys. Yeah. Yeah. You don't know if it's coming back. Yeah. I was that reminded me about Jalen's speech I thought it was very funny that he he eventually made a point to shout out the specialists
Starting point is 00:53:10 yeah like Jake Elliott and Rick Levato but nothing for Braden Mann he didn't say anything about Braden man no I think he said Jake Elliott and the snapper I think he said about the quick thing about Braden man getting the snaps down I think he way as a holder yeah I think that's what he meant yes okay well he doesn't he probably doesn't like to think about punting you know what I mean sure yeah yeah what did you think of it's the the Jordan fit
Starting point is 00:53:36 like the Kangall and the I don't know how I thought about Meg loves it Meg is all about she's like upset that they love hurt stuff like there's not stuff you can buy right now you can't buy that stuff not yet she's like she's been she's been nonstop she was like refreshing
Starting point is 00:53:50 I thought it was so funny that night when she was yelling at you from the other room about about Jaylan and it continued like after the show wait what was she yelling We were talking during the, you know, I was basically making the point that based off this game, that everyone on each side of the Jalen Hertz debate all season long should feel validated
Starting point is 00:54:12 because if you were on the critical side, you're like, yeah, like, this is what you expect. This is because you know that he's capable of it. I shouldn't speak for everybody because there are something that are ridiculous about it. But like for me personally and for others that, you know, spoken with, it's like, yeah, like we've seen Jalen play better than what he was doing through chunks of the season. And this is what you expected to see. And for everybody else, it was like, see, he could do it.
Starting point is 00:54:33 You guys said he couldn't do it. And Meg texts, as we're talking about on the show, because it was remote, Meg's text me and it's like, yeah, you know, basically like he's the best QB ever. Like, this is, you need to apologize, like that kind of thing. That's good.
Starting point is 00:54:46 Of the 50 quarterbacks in the, you mentioned this on the show yesterday or two days ago, this was the best EPA per dropback of any quarterback in a Super Bowl since 2000. and Jalen's two of his best five games, I think, were the championship game this year and the Super Bowl this year. So the last three games he played. And I thought it was...
Starting point is 00:55:07 My very specific 200 yards passing, 70 yards rushing, 70% completion percentage. He's only done it twice in his career. And those are... Oh, the two Super Bowls. The two Super Bowls. Yeah. AJ Brown said after the game on one of the post-game shows
Starting point is 00:55:21 that he thinks Jalen doesn't get excited by the earlier games, like earlier. season. He's like he's like he's locked in but it doesn't excite him like he's different before these big games. Like he says he's different in the you know like just talk just talking to him before the big games and and the whole Jordan myth making thing. Right. It totally fits that. Like if he's thinking it's like Zach in a regular season episode. He doesn't those don't mean anything to him. Right. It's the NPO that really gets it on. Correct. That's uh yes. Why is it NPO by I don't remember why it was done incorrectly, but I'm not hanging up on it.
Starting point is 00:56:00 We haven't talked about it, but congrats on Swooper. We're going to do that next week. Oh, but thank you. I created the graphic. I just haven't posted. Well, Tuesday's episode, we're all going to be together. We can do the full review. Okay.
Starting point is 00:56:13 Got it. I'll post it by then. Okay. Thank you. Antichlomactic, but that's okay. The All-Pay auction got Fran. Right? It kind of, that was the most.
Starting point is 00:56:24 moment. What's, yeah, from two weeks ago. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was the moment. That was,
Starting point is 00:56:29 because I misjudged how he was going to play it. That was like the Cooper de Gene pick six of the, of the, of the super season. If we're being honest, the season ended for me at,
Starting point is 00:56:38 that strip super. Because at that, at the week after, I was, I said it in episode that I was holding back turkeys to spend because I want just in case. And then that became, every week then became all or nothing for me
Starting point is 00:56:53 in terms of spending, turkeys holding turkey spending turkeys i never never level back out speaking of super strategy shout out to corey the infamous core by the all thanks for watching on fast make sure that you check out the rest of this episode on all phtly dot com corey who's probably listening uh saw me in the halls of wharton yesterday yeah and just yelled out dennis he's like he's like i'm a sicko i'm corey Jersey. Nice. Yeah. And he should have known better than to address you then wearing the Sequin. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:30 I learned, uh, I learned what advice he gave to Zach as well. Interesting. Anything you can share? Um, I mean. I mean, the season's over. Yeah. The season is over. Yeah. He did some analysis and basically it was what you would expect from Zach's behavior at that, in that episode. Start bidding early? Like, get the cheap ones.
Starting point is 00:57:48 You know, like, like, buy them for cheap. Anything under six turkeys, you know, like, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, You probably want those because whoever has the most items usually wins, you know, something like that. Okay. So you guys can probably reverse engineer some strategy based on that if you think Zach's going to continue to follow that advice. I think we could workshop. Now, Siriani's Buzzcut says the belt that assers, but like what have you called them the ass belters? Tough.
Starting point is 00:58:17 Yeah. What about something with like this defense has fangs? Like, I'm playing on fangs. Fangs. Then they're like, it's like they're vampires or something like that.
Starting point is 00:58:30 The Bloodhound gang. They're like more boringly good than that. I say that in a complimentary way. Yeah, I mean, yeah, there's just no, it's going to bother me.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Is he you and me? Bad touch. Hmm. I feel like if they had given him the mic long enough and read Blankenship would have started
Starting point is 00:58:55 singing that song. Thank God they took it away. Yeah. All right. I think this defense has fangs. That's close enough. I'm very, I mean, I know it's a little early to think about next year, but all the stuff we say about defense not being sticky from here.
Starting point is 00:59:16 Yeah. It'll be really, this is going to be a great test to that. Yeah. I will say the worst part, like I love the offseason. I love the like everything about, you know, free agency, the draft. team building, all the discussion we're going to have in the next three months. The worst part of the offseason is that this guy goes into hibernation. The worst part.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Who? You. Me? I don't go into hibernation. We're still around. We very rarely hear from you in the off season. I don't know if that's true. I do like a free agency thing.
Starting point is 00:59:47 Yeah. Okay. I'll come on the show once in a while. I mean, if you're invited. I mean. Wow. I'm just getting mixed messages here. One guy's like this guy goes in the hibernation.
Starting point is 01:00:02 It sucks. And the other guy is like, you're not invited. So, yeah, we'll see. You're welcome anytime. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:00:09 But you're going to take your like eight months sabbatical. Yeah, you go. That's the summer. Yeah, you go on the way in the summer. We're going to go. We are going to travel.
Starting point is 01:00:16 We travel, but now we're limited by everyone's summer. So we can only travel for, I don't know, 11 weeks or something like that. So, you know, we used to go for longer.
Starting point is 01:00:27 But yeah, we'll be around otherwise. Happy to come on if you have me. Just trying to think of. I can't wait for green, green things, yeah. I can't wait for your draft stuff to be. What do we got coming up? Available to the public for the first time. Yeah, it's fun.
Starting point is 01:00:48 It's what I like about it. Like I was just, you know, I watched more guys. It was like late last night. Watch two players put it in. And they're in the database. And I always go and check like, all right, can the people, can the diehard see it? And it's it's all there.
Starting point is 01:01:00 So that's fine. What we have coming up. So next week is going to be all combine preview content. So the combine is now, I'm leaving a week from Monday for Indianapolis. So we'll do a draft show next week. Bo and I here on the channel. So you can expect that just like getting into some of the big names to, you know, and what you can expect from Indianapolis.
Starting point is 01:01:21 But yeah, after that, it'll be like all the combine reaction content. So I'll do some video for here. We'll have the print pieces for the diehards leading up. But then after that, I'll have a, I think I'll do a two-round mock draft for immediately after the combine. My first big board, probably do like a top 100.
Starting point is 01:01:40 We'll come out the week after that. And then we'll be doing like position preview stuff, specific prospect profile videos. Like we'll be doing, we got a lot coming from a draft standpoint. As someone who's been lucky enough to see Franz draft notes back when they weren't available to the, public, I can tell you it is worth every penny of being a diehard to have access to that stuff.
Starting point is 01:02:02 Thank you. I mean, it is awesome. So we do also need to tell you about the big takeaway presented by Conn Murphy's, our big takeaway. And to me, it's just that we're still trying to figure out who hit Howard Roseman between the eyes. There's really only two choices. It's that or Cheryl Parker wrap it up.
Starting point is 01:02:21 Stop talking. That was my takeaway. I mean, what I mean, she's going to, she's down bad. Like this is, you know. Again. I mean, no chance at re-election. It's very, it's very hard to draw booze at a championship parade. And that's, uh, she managed to get that done.
Starting point is 01:02:39 She was, she was going through every week. She's like, and then week five was the bye week. And then weeks six. And that's what she said. She was like, week five was the Browns game. No, no, no, week five was the by week. I had it up on my laptop. We had a couple of the friends were with me had it over.
Starting point is 01:02:57 I went to like go take Jane to the bathroom and then came back up and she was still talking. It was bad. What are we doing? Yeah. That's a big takeaway. So on behalf of Con Murpys, wrap it up, Shirel. That's enough of that. All right.
Starting point is 01:03:17 Well, guys, happy parade day. Happy parade day. It's a lot of fun. We hope everybody enjoyed either going or watching it from afar. Danes, Zach says you're invited as well. It's his show too. Thank you. And Zach, you are, as David Rhodes says in the chat, who's a fellow warden instructor, he says,
Starting point is 01:03:38 Dennis can't come back on the show unless ZB attends Dennis' class. You are welcome to audit the class anytime, Zach. In fact, I believe Zach's got a lot of free time coming up. Maybe when we talk about auctions can do that. How many books is Zach writing this off season? Good question. Stay tuned. I guess.
Starting point is 01:03:57 Stay tuned. All right. Well, I guess that'll do it. On behalf of the professor and Julia and Fran and the Bloodhound gang, we thank you all for watching and listening. We will talk to you on Monday. 139 shows left to go until training camp starts. And it begins on Monday 2 o'clock all next week.
Starting point is 01:04:19 And then after that, believe it or not, it's the combine. Two weeks away. Insane. I mean three more weeks. that'll do it you know the thing with going to the Super Bowl is that you know you're behind every other team you know maybe
Starting point is 01:04:33 maybe that was the purpose of the beer can and it was it was an excuse for Howie to get away from any other responsibilities he has so that he can get back to the real work that he wants to do I don't know self-inflicted listen that's Dan is his theory he's the one who says if it's not
Starting point is 01:04:50 on a video it must have been fake it's it just seems impossible in a place with thousands of cell phones constantly taking video, that it wouldn't be on video. You said Zach texted you about it too, though. You said someone texted you. Oh, it wasn't Zach. Oh, I see.
Starting point is 01:05:09 Zach doesn't believe it either. He's a big conspiracy theory. That'll do it for this episode. Thank you for watching and listening. I hope everybody had a wonderful day. Have a great weekend. We'll talk to you on Monday. And as always, we love you.
