I heart radio. Welcome to the best of the week for What's Right with Nick Wright. The best takes and moments from this week on the show. Enjoy. The season from hell becomes more halacious. You guys lost Patrick. You guys lost your backup quarterback in Gardner, Minchu, and you lost the Titans. It seems like Kansas City Chiefs are no longer going to be in Kansas City,

and they might be moving over to Kansas in 2030. How do you feel about this development? All right. First, let me explain to people what it means. Kansas City, for all intents and purposes, when people hear about Kansas City, they are talking about the Missouri side. It is where I'm from.

It's a weird kind of border rivalry, Missouri or Kansas. But I grew up one block off state line road. That is exactly what it sounds like. The line between Missouri. and Kansas now confusingly and oddly the Missouri side of state line road is Kansas City the Kansas side of state line road is not Kansas City Kansas that's a different part like there is a small part of Kansas City Kansas that's such a state line road but most of it that touches state line roads like Lee Wood or Olathe or different

municipalities okay you guys don't care about that what you what does matter is this. The chiefs are moving about 20 minutes west of where they currently play. So this has no impact on them being the Kansas City Chiefs because they were in Kansas City proper. Yes, but they are still in the greater Kansas City area. Just like the San Francisco 49ers play in Santa Clara, the New England Patriots, which people consider Boston's team play in Foxborough. like this is the the Detroit Pistons used to play at the palace at Auburn Hills this happens there this is not a team moving the way teams move like Baltimore going to Cleveland that type of

Cleveland going to Baltimore either that's not what this is at all now it does for me as a native Missouri and someone who's lived lived his whole life my dad was a Kansas City Missouri firefighter I lived in on the Missouri side and whenever people say to me oh you're from Kansas, I correct them, say, no, I'm from Missouri. I hate that the chiefs are leaving. I don't hate that Missouri was not held hostage by pro sports owners. And this is where we get into a little bit of tricky stuff, and then we will talk about the football piece of it,

because there is a real football piece of it. But this is, so teams, because it's, the state of Kansas via star bonds and other stuff is going to pay more money for this chief stadium than any local government, which means taxpayers, have paid for any stadium in the history of America. One point eight billion dollars. And I have always believed that the call it 15 biggest cities in the country, all of the mayors slash governors of those states should have gotten together a long time ago and said, folks, we need to have an agreement amongst ourselves. We're not going to pay for pro sports team stadiums because they want to be in our cities. So New York, L.A.,

Dallas, Houston, Chicago, San Francisco, your major markets, pro sports teams want to be there. The idea that they are going to leave is a bluff if you are a major, major market. So you should never pay, never pay if you're in one of those markets. If you're in a smaller market, it does get trickier because We have seen teams leave smaller markets, and one can't argue, and I have argued for a long time to use my hometown as a example, that the thing that makes Kansas City different from Des Moines, Iowa, or Omaha, Nebraska, is that we have the Chiefs and the Royals.

That's it. We're a two-sport pro-sport city. and there is real economic and civic pride benefit to that. And Kansas City is not a huge market. So you can't just dare a team to leave the way L.A. could or New York could or Washington, D.C. could. Because they might leave. Kansas City has lost teams before. And so I don't think it while I understand the argument of there are better things to be

paying taxpayer dollars for, that is correct. I agree with that in general. I also understand why if you're Memphis, losing the Grizzlies is scary as shit and it might be worth taxpayer dollars to make sure they stay. And so I think the math is not the same for mid-market and small market teams as it is for major market teams. That's just my opinion. I think I have data to back that up, but it's my gut feeling on having grown up in one of those places and feeling like I'm from somewhere and because we have pro sports teams. And so this doesn't change that for Kansas Cityans.

They will still be the Kansas City Chiefs. Nobody, half of the country thought they played in Kansas already anyway. And I don't think, I understand the gut reaction people have, and I'm with you politically on this, that it is shameful the public subsidies we will give billion dollar sports teams when, I mean, the city, the state of Kansas has no public transportation none don't get mad at me governor laura kelly like i'm sure there's a few bus routes but like there are the there's there are things that money could be used for that probably would help a greater group of people i get that but i also do think that if you're

in a city the size of one that a team might leave losing that team can be devastating to the community. So I do think you have to weigh that. The problem for the chief for that the chiefs were able to play into specifically is because they're on a state line, they could play one state against the other and get basically de Manse the benefit that you normally only get this type of, I mean, 1.8 billion. It's the biggest public subsidy ever. You normally only get that something like that if you are threatening your fan base with we are moving like we are the Seattle Supersonics are going to become the Oklahoma City Thunder because Kansas City that is on a state line they were able to get the benefit

without ever having to threaten they were never threatening to move to San Antonio right just like we'll just jump across state's for whoever is going to the games previously right you still get to play the states against each other and this has been a problem for border cities this is a bigger problem when it comes to business taxes and municipal funding and again this is the part that could be boring but i'm going to give a very simplistic story of what's happened in my hometown because it's on a state line you'll have a business not a sports team, a business that is based in Kansas. And then politicians in Missouri, because they want to say we added jobs to our community,

will give that business insane tax breaks to move its headquarters 15 minutes east over to Missouri. And that business can then not pay the taxes it was once paying. it has no impact whatsoever actually on who has the jobs. You're not adding jobs to your community. You're just stealing them off the books of Kansas to add them in Missouri or Missouri to Adam in Kansas, vice versa. But it's the same human beings working there. And that has, you know, that's a problem for mayors

and city councils of border cities all the time. Like how do we, because it ends up being a not a zero-sum game, a zero sum for the overall community, but a huge win for the, a zero sum for the employment of the overall community while being a huge win for the bottom line of corporations. But that's a sidebar. Now to the football piece of it,

because here is the tangible effect. The chiefs are going to play in a dome stadium starting in 2031. Hey, that's awesome. I don't know how you feel about that. That's awesome. I love the domes. I hate it. You need the snow games, that real effect of the weather?

Yeah, I like that. Patrick Jones is going to be lightened it up in there, man. So, this one was the other cornerback. Here's that, so very short-term, very selfish. I like the dome for Patrick's late 30s. Oh, and then the new guy is going to be. playing in the dome the whole time. So if we are just talking about maximizing like Mahomes' career, having the fact that his age,

35 and older seasons will be in a dome is probably good. Okay? That's probably good. That to me is not worth the trade-off of. football slowly but surely eliminating weather as a component. Like I think we are moving towards a reality of in a decade, there are maybe three or four stadiums in the country where weather plays a part. and I don't like that for football.

I think football is a game made to be played in the elements. I don't mind domes in warm weather places because it feels like that's actually like the elements aren't going to be a big issue there anyway, and so it allows you to host more events fine. And I don't mind the dome in Minnesota only because that specific place can get so maybe it's just because I'm used to it, but it can get so much snow that they've like canceled games. But I guess Buffalo, so it's probably just because I'm used to it.

But I don't like football removing the elements and the idea that because they build this stadium, Kansas City is going to get a bunch of Super Bowls is just not true. I think they will probably get one. and people will complain about the Super Bowl being in Kansas City. And you know what? They should. Because the Super Bowl should not be in Kansas City. I'm from there.

I love it. Super Bowl should not have ever been in Minneapolis. It shouldn't have ever been in Indianapolis. It shouldn't be in Kansas City. The Super Bowl should be. What does it need to be in New Orleans or? Wait, what happened? New Orleans, Miami, Vegas, L.A.

That's where the Super Bowl needs to me. Elitist. Okay. No, cities, it's, yeah, I guess. I mean, New Orleans isn't a big market. It's just awesome. Yeah. And the, and so I think we have seen cities that can do,

and I'd be honestly okay with L.A. not being included. I'd be fine with it just being Vegas, Miami, New Orleans. Like that being the rotation. You can make the argument for Phoenix. But I just think they're not, The idea that Kansas City is, because they're at this, is going to be a part of a Super Bowl rotation, that's not going to happen. It's not going to be every 10 years, the biggest sporting event in the country, headquarters in Wyandot County in February. It's just not happening.

But my biggest thing is, on the field, I don't like, I like that weather matters. and I like that the Buffalo and Kansas City and Baltimore and Pittsburgh and New England have to be able to play in multiple settings

and I just I so yes I think it'll be good for the end of the last quarter of Patrick's career but it's to me a bit of a bummer and the other bummer is this you're going to go from 80,000 seats to about 68,000

and I'm going to be very interested and I really hope that they find a way because I think the tailgating will be great no matter what one thing Clark Hunt said yesterday that's true is parking lots don't tailgate people do that's correct I think the tailgating pregame stuff I trust they will make sure that stays sacrosanct because if there's ever a reason to go to a NFL game,

going to Arrowhead to Tailgate before the game is one of the greatest things in the NFL. And I think that will stay. But I wonder if they're going to be able, but the other thing Clark said is seats and concrete don't make noise. Fans do. That is true. But certain stadiums are more conducive for noise than others.

And Arrowhead has been the loudest open-air stadiums. in the country forever. And I just hope they are able to recreate that. Is it going to have a new name? Well, I would imagine they'll still call it Arrowhead. They've already kind of sold on that because it's technically GEHA Field at Arrowhead.

And I've never totally understood naming rights sponsorships. Like, I don't know that anyone has paid more attention to the Can City Chiefs. I really don't know that anyone in the world has paid more attention to the Can City Chiefs than me. Certainly, since, because the stadiums don't even named that for like five years of the field. In that time, Twitter. And I still don't, but I still don't know what G-E-H-A is. Yeah.

You have like, I have no idea. I have no clue what the, I don't know. Do they sell insurance? is it are they a conso I don't know what it is so it's always arrowhead to me but

that's the positive and the negative that's what it is now we'll Can City get a final four maybe like will they're like having a domed stadium there is there are benefits for it

go ahead GBA is government employees health association still don't know it means does that mean they they they does that mean they compete with the company that gronk advertises for so it is they're the competitors of gronks company what's that what's the gronk insurance company where he's like i wasn't in the military but my granddad was it's u s a okay so g h a and usaaa are competitors all right good for them do you um do you think there's i'm sorry just cut you off

Do you think there's going to be any teams that hold out on this open-air stadium closed thing? Could you see Green Bay being like the last team with an open stadium in 30 years? Well, Buffalo's building a new stadium. And Buffalo's new stadium doesn't have a roof, right? Fact-checked me on that. Okay. I'm pretty sure it does. Then, yeah.

Yeah. And, but. And it's Buffalo. Yeah, it's not a dog. And it's Buffalo. Yeah. But I. I don't know.

The Chiefs playing in a dome feels weird to me. I'm sure I get used to it. And if old Mahomes is just lighting people up, maybe I'll be fine with it. Maybe because I'm not a savant and like a football historian. I just don't see why you would want. And this is like I hear a lot of people that's their take. They want there to be snow.

They inclement weather. Why would you not just want them to perform to their best ability like any other sport? Like I feel like there's no other sport. It's an outdoor sport. It's, because so that's where, so that's where I disagree with you. No,

what you're saying, a lot of people feel that way. It just, it just depends on how you look at it. I look at being great at football, intrinsically meaning that you can have different types of game plans

and different abilities in different weather. Because I think that is part of building a team. I think part of building a team is teaching them how to exploit different weather conditions. I think that is as intrinsic to the game as kick returning. Like that's part of it. And I think removing it, people, a lot of people feel like, oh, you remove it and that then makes it more pure. I feel like it makes it less pure.

And I understand in basketball that doesn't exist. every court's the same all of it like soccer like i mean i don't know if they play they play soccer in the snow or like light snow they obviously can play in like heavy rain that's fair but the um soccer's an outdoor sport and being able to handle heat is a bigger thing in soccer like um yeah yeah the yeah i guess i'm always looking for the light show i've seen these games No, I get it. And that's the way, that's the way the NFL's moving.

It just bums me out. I mean, but again, I'm a grandpaw now. And I'm sorry to those historians that stuff has changed. No, it's fine. I just so many of like the great moments in NFL history are playoff games in the elements. And that'll be a bummer for me. But, you know, nothing to cry about. I just, I don't love it.

That to me matters a lot more than the fact that they're moving 20 minutes west across state lines. Want to know where I bet on sports during the holiday season? Hard Rock bet.

Jonas, guys. I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. We were thinking, I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers.

This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, for people to call in and say, Hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey, Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.

Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay. Genshin won. I mean, she went down at three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me.

Ravens hanging by a thread. Drake May was looking poor in the first half.

Rallied, Lamar Jackson came out of the game with, I think, like a rib-endry. We lost the game. Now we have a 7% chance of making the playoffs. Yeah. Who do you think this is bigger off? The Ravens or Patriots? Well, listen, I think it's a, let me start with the Patriots. And what was, I'm trying to remember, because there was a clip from last week's show.

Was it about Lamar? What was the clip? Maybe the producers saw it as well. There is a clip of, I did some take that I don't even know if DeMonze agreed with. But it was massively aggregated. and it was aggregated with the Monszay and I split screen. And I always find this funny because I wasn't, do you guys remember what I'm talking about?

Was it my last week? It was from Thursday's show. I can't even remember what we talked about on Thursday. But regardless. Mars health, NyQuil and sickness and stuff. Yeah, I don't. There was something else other than that probably. That's what I'm trying to remember what our,

if I had our rundown from last week in front of me, I could think of it. I was trying to think if it's Lamar because the reason I thought of that is it might happen again this week. But let's start with the Patriots. I think that was a growing up moment for Drake. I think that Drake was playing one of his worst games of the year. And for him to rally the way he did and make the – I mean, he obviously. he had the one great deep pass that was

Rob Brimham on the Miss DPI but didn't matter. He had already the touchdown pass he threw to the front corner of the end zone. Yeah. Was unbelievable. I thought that was great. And I

think that on top of that hold on. I think Paul just texted to me. Oh, this is what it was. Sorry. It was the thank you, Paul. was the wimby stuff. It was me saying I don't need to be lectured by a 20-year-old French kid.

The people got super mad at that take, and you're just sitting there, like, listening. It's just super funny. Thank you, Paul. The, no, the people got mad at it. I think my Lamar takes from TV, but sorry, I'm interrupting myself. I thought the Drake May touchdown pass was un-built. The bomb was unbelievable. The fourth and two play, which kept him alive to go win the game.

It was just a pass to the sideline, but it was an absolute laser that I thought was going to be knocked down. He was excellent. And Drake May's the real deal. Yeah. He is the real deal. You can't deny that at this point. And the Patriots, they had to win that game because while I thought sometimes the schedule stuff got a little overblown, if they had played that soft schedule and then lost to Buffalo and Baltimore,

it'd be like, okay. You know what I mean? Who are we? Really? Yeah. They're ahead of schedule. They're better than all the JV teams, but they're not an A-lister. And I think they proved they're A-listers.

And so I think that is, that's the Patriots piece of it. And they've got They got their quarterback. The guy looks like, I think that guy's going to be the league for a really, really long time. Drake? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I, I... Man, I think he is just going to be a top five quarterback. Yeah. He's legit. He is without a doubt, legit. And then you get to the Ravens.

And there's a lot here. They blew another big lead. Everyone's blaming Harbaugh. They didn't give the ball to, they didn't have Derek Henry on the field for their last two possessions. People are understandably blaming Harbaugh. Another, can I call it without people freaking out, weird injury thing with Lamar? I do feel strongly that he could have came back in the game watching the, like, And it's a rib injury.

I do think he could have come back in that game. And I don't like doing that or being like, because I don't know what the guy was feeling. But I don't know. Like he was moving around. He's like on the side. Like I've had a rib injury before. And I just, I don't know.

I felt like he could have kept playing. Especially in that situation. We have the game. We just need you to manage. But I, so listen, I hate that you're the one that said that instead of me. And I want this,

if this gets aggregated, people to understand. cook. This is DeManzi's favorite team and the guy he's ridden with more than anybody. Yeah. But I was shocked he didn't go back in. And when he didn't go back in, let me rephrase that. I was not shocked he didn't go back in. We didn't go back in. I assumed we were going to get the news yesterday that he broke his ribs, that he had cracked ribs, that even though the hit didn't, the knee didn't look. look that bad, but you never know how that is. And so I just assumed like, oh, man, there's, like, he's, he probably isn't going to play this coming week and that's, it's a wrap.

And when Harbaugh came out yesterday and said, it's just a bad contusion. And he's day to day, I was stunned. Now, again, it's weird because Lamar, is obviously tough and obviously he's played and he cares he's also like a type of 100% so I so that's why I'm saying it's just another weird injury thing with Lamar

where now he has suffered a hamstring injury that nobody saw when it happened but obviously was a real one like a not real as opposed to real versus fake I should have said a significant one to where he missed multiple games, including a game after a buy that his coach thought he would be back for, and then had knee ankle, toe injuries that made him mispractice, but not miss any games, but he then wasn't effective in the games.

Then his, you know, annual December cold had a mispractice. And now, what looked like a relatively banal play, now, now. knocked him out for the most critical half of their season. Basically playing an elimination game. It's just weird. And I'm not trying to be like KG with my analysis here. I'm not trying to hint at anything. But I'm also not going to act like it's not weird.

And it's very. it's very, very hard not to go to the other quarterbacks in Lamar's tax bracket and echelon and not ask yourself, do we think they would have, an injury that the next day their coach calls day to day and expects them to play the next week, that we wouldn't have seen them back on the field, at least trying, seeing, giving it a go and then maybe, okay,

this isn't going to work. I don't know. I feel like you would have. And so it's just odd. And I go back to Baltimore. See, like the situation, Harbaugh,

whatever it is. Let me tweak that. There you go. I don't, because I said this a few weeks ago. I don't think he wants out. I think he might be over Harbaugh. And that this has run its course.

And that Lamar is resigned to the fact that this is a lost season. And it is a lost season. And this was the biggest thing I said yesterday on TV that I think people maybe took issue with but again we won't know for five years but i i think this will age well i am not saying lamar will never make or win a super bowl what i am saying is i think when his career is over we will look at the best chances he had were these past three years they were the solitary super bowl favorite at multiple points in each of the last three seasons. They were the Super Bowl preseason favorite this year.

And to come out of these three years with two total playoff victories, come out of the 2020s so far, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, with two total playoff victories is stunning. And now I think, you start a new era with a new head coach. Domanzi, before we move on to the Pittsburgh side of it, I want to give you some news.

Zay Flowers, named to the Pro Bowl this morning. Now, go ahead. I know you have a potential Zay Flowers take. Just run straight, ma'am. Please just run straight. and just be a little bit tighter with the football. I just think that there have been a couple of big situations and the biggest point of the season.

I think the guy is loose with the football. He's trying to play like backyard football or something, making these cuts backwards. And that's not like the only time that I've seen him do that, but just in the bigger instances. It's like, dude, just be tired of with the football. Don't try to get it all in one play to go down or something. It's just kind of frustrated to see sometimes.

And he has said he was going to do that. Yeah. And then he has not done that. He's loose. He's loose. And he doesn't fumble a lot, but you remember the fumbles. Yeah. You're, they're big moments.

Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, new? Huge news. We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast?

Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts. We're starting a trend. But this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember.

I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it. one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, people could call in and say, Hey, Jonas.

And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis. And I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris, every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on Clay. Jenchian win.

I mean, she went down at three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lina Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now, and I actually can win on any surface, because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court-side seat to the French Open. Listen to the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds.

I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the I-Hard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Five picks. Do them quick. All lines from Hard Rock Bet. The first pick to Monzae is my favorite pick of the weekend. You've got Dallas minus six and a half at Washington. Yeah, listen, I think Josh Johnson's playing quarterback.

Washington. I don't know this, but I think it. And if that's the case, they just can't move the ball. Dallas, I understand that Dallas, you might feel like, oh, they're going to be demoralized because they're eliminated from the playoffs. I don't know that I think they've kind of felt they were eliminated from the playoffs for a while. They're going to move the ball. Dallas is going to blow out the commanders. I love the Cowboys, minus six and a half.

owns the commanders in his career 12 and 2 straight up, and they've covered five in a row. Next. You got Jacksonville minus 6 and a half at Indy. So listen, Philip Rivers, credit to him for playing obviously way, way, way better than I expected.

But their season ended Monday night, and he came back to try to make a playoff push. The Jags are playing for a lot as far as locking up the division, staying alive for the one seed. Jags have been crushing against the AFC South, five and Osh against the spread in their last five against the AFC South. The cults are falling apart.

Again, the Jags game and the Cowboys game are games I'm picking here. I don't know if I'll be able to pick Friday on TV because I don't know if the lines will have moved up to, you know, above the seven, but I'll take the six and a half. Next. Next you got Pittsburgh minus four. Or at Cleveland. This was originally at four and a half.

It just dropped a four. Yeah, listen, I know laying more than a field goal with Tomlin in divisional games hasn't been the best. But I just think Shador's been really bad. And the last two weeks, it's fine for a fifth round rookie. But for a Pittsburgh team that knows,

we take care of business here, we give ourselves a buy. Week 18 doesn't matter when the division, all lay the four points. Pittsburgh. I got no problem with that. Next. Buffalo minus two and a half versus Philly. I think Buffalo is a lot better than Philly. They're at home. I'm only, I'm laying less than a field goal.

And listen, Philly getting Jalen Carter and Lane Johnson back this week, I think is something. Philly also, though, they locked up the division. They're not going to be the one seed. So it's not that I think they're not going to care, but they just, they have no chance of,

being the one seed, they have no chance of not winning the division. So they have a slight chance at the three, at the two seed, but they can't be the four. Philly right now cannot be the one, four, five, six, or seven. They're either, no matter what happens the rest of the way, they're the two or the three seed, and they are probably the three seed. So I just think Buffalo's better. Buffalo needs the game. Buffalo's at home.

I'll take Buffalo. And then our one underdog, we're, taking. Chicago plus three at San Francisco. This got bumped up from two, two and a half. three recently. Yeah, I just think the Bears run game and the Bears offense against that Niners defense, I think they can win. Yeah. And I'm getting three full points. So the Bears, by the way, played on Saturday.

The Niners played Monday. So it's not like a mini-buy, but it's a difference in that. I think the Bears can win that game. out right. So my five picks are Dallas minus six and a half, Jacksonville minus six and a half, Pittsburgh minus four, Buffalo minus two and a half, Chicago plus three. Again, if you're going to bet favorites, bet them early, we are doing

this on Tuesday. We are betting them early. Hey guys, it's us. The Jonas brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast. Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We have the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because

We're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it, but, you know, tired and sick. Tired and sick.
