Hello, Happy St. Patrick's Day. Got a big show for you, we think. Is it Fun Show today?
Fun Show today. As it should be on this glorious holiday, if you like the show by the end of it, please be a friend and tell a friend. If not, just act like it, never happen. Let's get to it.
Whoa! Apparently it's at St. Patrick's Day, which I will get to in a moment. Obviously, my name is Patrick.
I'm gonna love St. Patrick's Day, especially with what you've already learned about my life and how I've lived. That you'd assume that St. Patrick's Day is a big day.
It is. So we will talk about that momentarily, but right now we have to remind you that a new lead year begins today. Yeah. I think the agency frenzy began just two days ago when a legal tampering period began, and there's already been hundreds.
Hundreds! Hundreds! Of millions of dollars in guarantees for players. There's already been a lot of players cutting today.
All the teams kind of have to get under the salary cap. There's still like five teams or four teams over the salary cap. Look for some things that happen throughout the day to put teams into better position so that they can play next year under the limit of the cash they're allowed to spend, which is what makes the NFL so damn good. The parody, the salary cap, blah, blah, blah, Uncle Covered came through and did some damage.
And I have on good authority. Okay. Can we put the list up please of the teams that are still over the salary cap? Because this is a big deal going into the lead gear.
As of this morning, Alberbrier is reporting. NFL management council records showed just three teams left over the salary cap. The Saints, $12.72 million over. The Chiefs, $5.41 million over.
In the Bears, $2.42 million over. Shout out to Alberbrier for that reporting. The Saints, I assume they're gonna have to rework and do some shit today to get under that number by four o'clock I believe. Bears, $2.42 million over.
They just brought in their stud. Andy Daltin, quarterback. There's a lot of stories popping off about how the Russell Wilson Bear Strait almost happened. We'll talk about that today at some point as well.
But what we have to do is address this middle one, the Chiefs, $5.41 million over the salary cap. Our sources have told us that although a couple of days ago when it was reported that Patrick Mahomes, Chris Stone Cold Jones and Travis Kelsey were reworking their contract to free up some money in the salary cap when it take things as a signing bonus as opposed to a roster bonus. And it's a salary cap trick that has been happening all around the NFL right now. We asked Travis Kelsey about it.
He said, that's new to me, but he also did not know about the four year $140 million deal to taste the mail. So then it was reported that Travis Kelsey is actually not reworking his contract. That was two days ago. Here we are, lead year, begin day, St.
Patrick's day, Chiefs $5.41 million over the cap. Look for that to get changed very quickly because our sources are telling us that as of yesterday, Travis Kelsey and the Kansas City Chiefs are working on making him a hero, a teammate of the year nominee, a guy who said, listen, I don't care how the money comes or where the money comes, I want to make sure our team is set up to succeed. Our sources are telling us that Travis Kelsey and the Kansas City Chiefs are currently reworking their contract to free up some salary cap space, which means the Chiefs are going to be under there because this guy right here, Travis Kelsey. Wow!
What a guy! Wow! I believe this makes him a Walter Pete Man of the year finalist already, but I assume with all the great work he does in Ohio and in Kansas City that only helped. Travis Kelsey, not only a guy who breaks a bunch of records on the field, here he is being an incredible human on St.
Patrick's Day, reworking his contract saying, hey, listen, don't worry about the money I just want to play football so that Chiefs can get below the cap. I assume that's the move that they're going to make. And it was reported a couple of days ago, maybe the Chiefs were telling reporters like, this is what our plan is. We saw Travis, he woke up immediately after, I mean, maybe a minute before coming on our show, we told him about this news, he said, I've not heard that.
So that guy's a hero who chucks beers, wears title-bouts, catches balls. He's the go-to man on third-down red zone, you name it. Although they didn't win a Super Bowl, they've been to back-to-back Super Bowls and Travis Kelsey said, listen, I just want just him to be good, according to our sources. No, shot to Travis Kelsey.
Wow, what a guy. What a guy. What a guy. So the beginning reports were accurate, I guess.
But at the time when they were reported, yeah, we were results driven or we processed driven, you know what I mean? He's not a guy. Anyways, our sources were saying that. Anyways, March 17th, St.
Patrick's Day. Let's talk about it, shall we? I don't know if you began this particular St. Patrick's Day with Kegs and eggs, but if you did, Slanch, I hope you're having a great, you know, probably pretty black-doubt drunk moment right now while you're listening to the show.
1207 on St. Patrick's Day, or St. Patrick's Day celebrations, which happened during the weekend because normally St. Patrick's Day falls during a week.
You know, that's the way our calendar works. And we can talk about if we believe in a seven-day week and how accurate that is with the sun and all that bullshit. But I don't want to get in that conversation. You get it.
St. Patrick's Day is not always on a weekend. But when you think about St. Patrick's Day, I hope everybody thinks it themselves.
Although the world kicks us into taint sometimes, St. Patrick's Day is literally a reminder to tell you, hey, go have a great food and time out there. Do what you got to do. And I understand a lot of people attack Americans and in particular Irish people that live in America or have their ancestors from Ireland, how we have taken advantage of St.
Patrick's Day and turned it into something that's not, I have done St. Patrick's Day in Ireland. I'll tell you what, the blackout was damn near the same effort over there. And they did it the night before going into the morning and then there was a parade and everything like that.
But America, you know, we do what we do to things. And I like the fact that the Irish, you know, my name's Patrick McAfee. You know, though McAfee is of Scottish descent, we got kicked out of that country. I learned through, you know, spitting into a tube and this whole thing.
And then we got moved into Ireland. I'm an Irish guy, obviously. And I like the fact that our day is associated with having a great time. I like the fact that whenever you think of the Irish, you think, okay, they like to have a reckless, ridiculous, good time.
I like the fact that a lot. And I like the fact that on St. Patrick's Day, you know, it just feels as if everybody come, it's a come together, not everyone's like that. It's a come together, hold it.
I told you I got a chance to experience St. Patrick's Day in Ireland, I did. I've done a chance to experience St. Patrick's Day in Morgantown, West Virginia, Indianapolis, Indiana, Chicago, now I don't know the area as well.
But everybody does St. Patrick's Day like Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Okay, so maybe because I'm from Pittsburgh, because I'm an Irish from Pittsburgh, and because St. Patrick's Day is something that I used to look forward to 364 days a year, Tim McAfee, a man who used to grind and work his ass into the ground would actually have a holiday and take off work on St.
Patrick's Day. The St. Patrick's Day holiday in the McAfee family is very large. And I want to let you know, although I am not, you know, and my dad wasn't doing any kegs' names this morning.
We didn't wake up with kegs' and eggs. A couple years ago, my dad walked into a beer pong table at 730 AM and an Italian comes down and blows a blunt right in his face. And Tim McAfee then knocks down a beer cup. It's like St.
Patrick's Day is a big day for our family. And I want to let you know there's a lot of haters on St. Patrick's Day, a lot of Irish people, like this is what it's about. You can't hate on the fact that we are associated with a good fucking time.
So happy St. Patrick's Day. Life isn't always fantastic today. I hope you have a chance to enjoy yourself.
Wear some green, chug some beers, smoke some green, do whatever you got to do, and then ship back up the Boston. I listen to that, it's all. Oh my god, I listened to that seven times this morning. Oh yeah.
Because it's a little bit different now with old Uncle COVID coming through. St. Patrick's Day isn't what it used to be. And Pittsburgh, for instance, the reason why I say nobody does Pittsburgh, there's a strip of bars.
How many bars are in there? 80 plus. 80 plus bars in one strip. And it's when the Italians come down.
Pittsburgh, big Irish Italian city. That's what it is, OK? Polish sneak in there. There's some Latino culture, African-Americans in it.
But it's mostly Italian and Irish. That is what Pittsburgh is. And for a long time, the Irish have just been so much better than the Italians. And basically everything can cause a little bit of a skirmish.
St. Patrick's Day, the Italian community is even like, hey, our drunk rivals have their day. Let's fucking go and do this. And it just becomes the entire city he shut down in Pittsburgh.
It used to be. Now I assume it's not like that anymore. The entire city was drunk. And I used to hate when people would be like, that's how I'm saying Patrick's Day.
It should be there. The entire city right now with Pittsburgh is all drunk together, basically. You've got cops walking past kids doing kegs stands out of the trunk of a car at 7 AM. And being like, hey, lift his feet up a little bit.
It is just a beautiful thing, Connor. Very Irish guy. This morning, as soon as I said, Pittsburgh is the best St. Patrick's Day place you said, I'll Boston.
Because a lot of Irish in Boston. A lot of Irish in Boston. But I do believe the way Pittsburgh is set up, it's much more for a city-wide drunk fest with that 80-some bars. I think it was a Guinness World record for the most amount of bars per capita, space or anything like that.
And it's a lot of Irish people, obviously. It's built for everybody to have a great time starting 6, 7 AM, if you really want to, and go all day. But I do like the fact that Boston holds it down up there. Of course, South Boston, unbelievable place for a parade and drinking.
And like you said, St. Patrick's Day is like the Thanksgiving and drinking. Everyone's happy. Everybody's giving things.
But at the same time, everyone's boosted up. Come on. How about the, I mean, how many? Oh, yeah.
Two more bombs. Which is such a social drinking thing. Yeah. Everybody's got a beer too.
You got a beer to sing along with you. And you got a shot glass to cheers with. I mean, it's the best. It's the fucking best.
I don't drink that much anymore. But St. Patrick's Day is like a, hey, March 17. It's like you got to put the old fucking boots on.
It's your heritage? Yeah. Your name? A lot of history there.
And St. Patrick's Day has passed. You have had some great days. Let's not stop that.
I mean, if you're a street shooter, which St. Patrick's Day, I've been hot for a long time. A couple years. I have about 1,000 now since 2000, maybe nine.
Maybe even earlier than probably in college I did. So it's like, you got to unretire the chug on St. Patrick's. Oh, yeah.
You know, like you got to do those are what happened today can happen this past weekend. I guess a bunch of drunk whites were out and about. I know that was happening. I'm not going to knock it heads up.
Happy I wasn't there because there was a blonde knocking out everybody down there would not have wanted to eat it right from her. But aside from the drunk skirmishes that do come with St. Patrick's Day, I feel like it's a rather joyful event. Oh, yeah.
And I like that we're associated with, although every single year, any time I talk about it, that's not what it is. Well, why not that? Why is it not that? Why is it not?
Should be universe. You know, it sounds like Chris Easter or anything like that. Like everyone. I mean, you might not like what the reasons were, but everyone's coming together around St.
Patrick's. They don't matter what, you know, Cree, you are what race, you are what religion. I mean, like literally everyone will go to a St. Patrick's Day.
I got a homeless man spending an entire day on St. Patrick's Day with me because Nick's shaking his head back to the homeless man replacing Nick. Oh, generous philanthropic human you are. Let me take this bomb off the streets.
Get my 100 bucks stuff in this box and parade him around. Parade him around. Belling shots and liquor. We gave this guy a sweet jacket because he was up with us.
We were up very early, you know, when he was walking around. And I was like, what's going on with it? Which is something I would always do? No matter who it is, like what's going on there?
And he was like, just trying to figure it out. I'm like, what are you trying to figure out? He's like, where are you guys going? I'm like, well, let's fucking go.
He was like, all right, we're going to have to give this guy a jacket. Nick wasn't there. Somebody else did actually. Somebody else did a jacket.
Nick didn't even know we picked up this guy. There was a potential mixed message sent to the group that they were to get into the cab, or we were going to go somewhere and Nick got into a cab. Yeah. This is like miscommunication.
I get put into the cab path with a good pat on the back and then bangs the top of the cab. See you later, sends me down. That's not what happened. I was going to be digs down the river.
That is not what happened. We do meet up at station scare. Eventually found our way back. I see I've been replaced by this homeless pump.
No, so that's not exactly how it was. Nick was in a large group. Nick was in a large group. And I knew what was about to happen.
And I didn't know necessarily that Nick was not going to leave with us, but it was like, hey, I feel like we got a split from this. Because I don't know all these people either. I don't know all these people. We got a split and then meet up later.
I thought Nick was with us when we picked up the bump. You know what I mean? I thought Nick was with Nick comes jumping out with that group, like same Patrick's. They have a good time.
And he's getting a cap. And I didn't tap him on the head. I almost was like, oh, smell you later. But if I say that to Nick, then what happens?
Then it becomes like an entire. Oh, what do you mean? Yeah, yeah. So yeah, it was a that bum that had a great day.
He did it. And he made his way all the way to he met Nick later. Is that the guy who you said, hey, I don't want to see you here next week? Could you give me a no, no, no, no, no.
That was a different guy. That was a different guy. I had a bag killed either. That's a completely different guy.
Completely different guy. Yeah, the guy that I don't want to see here next week, that guy was awesome. He's probably still there, by the way. Two things, Miss Burke does really well.
Say, Patty's a celebration and bombs. Yeah, the bombs, by the way, they're not just like the, oh, they look like they're down and out. Like they're like, they're blue collar bombs. Like, hey, listen, you want to give me some?
I like some. Like that guy's where we go. You know, like there's no homeless guy that has any energy to go like, hey, where we going? That guy's like where we going?
Like you're right. Let's go. We're going to get some more hours for a couple of hours. By the way, we met up with Nick, probably around 11 a.m.
But by that point, I mean, there a lot had happened was, what days were, yeah, you see. So what we're saying is St. Patrick's Day brings people together. Here's the church.
Here's Steve, looking inside St. Patrick's Day, there's all people. Wow. Have a good time.
Have a good time. I almost got still telling that story. Well, I don't know how he did it go. He was able to drink a lot.
Oh, OK. I feel like he was almost running laps around us at one point. Jeez. Yeah.
Yeah, he had a great day. That was a Super Bowl. He had a great St. I mean, he had a great St.
Patrick's Day. I think he would talk about St. Patrick's Day in positive light, which is good news. I hope so.
By the way, I think he potentially probably already has a million dollars with his workouts. He's been there for sure. I run a Fortune 500 company now. I just don't.
I mean, that's why, you know, DoorDash, you know, if that's really- He's definitely dead by him. Why? Oh, dude. That was seven years ago.
It's been some cold, harsh winners. That guy made it south. He's a boy. He's a boy.
He's a boy. He's a boy. All right, that was a party in Georgia. Yeah, I heard about it down in Georgia, which by the way, I'm not going to talk about Georgia.
I forget what's there. Savannah, they say it's very nice. I was not in Savannah. So I very clearly said I did St.
Patrick's Day in Georgia and people in Savannah were like, not Savannah. You're like, you're right. I didn't land it. But I have heard that Savannah is a fantastic party.
I just don't know. It's probably much different vibe than the Pittsburgh one, if I had to guess. I will attempt to get there at some point, because it's a blast. Zito also told me that the Chicago one is a great time.
I potentially didn't go to the- Because, you know, if you don't know where to go, like 10 AM, 11 AM, if you don't know where to go, sometimes it could be a little bit difficult. I might have had a misread on Chicago, but I do know that if you're going to do St. Patrick's Day, you go to Pittsburgh, just gas pedal. That is what you're doing.
That is the St. Patrick's Day you can expect out of the Pittsburgh Irish party community. I'm not sure everywhere else is the exact same. Now we move on.
Don't be. Did you guys hate the Irish? Or did you do St. Patrick's Day in Canada?
We get St. Patrick's Day. Green beer is the best. All day long.
It's day off. There's always a day off. You can't work on St. Patrick's Day.
The green beer too, by the way. The green beer is a green beer, just like we said. Oh, man. What you going to do then, huh?
I mean, we actually have a very good pub back home called Irish Times, and it pops off on St. Patrick. It's a lecture. Hey, come into this part.
You have some Irish Times. What's happening? Well, when I was in Ireland one time, when I went over there, there was legit. Like, I realized why I came for it.
Like, you know, like, first of all, everybody's hands are just the fattest things of all things. Every single one of them have these fat ass mitts. I mean, it's just like, OK, you go into a drinking place. As you're walking in, it'll feel like you're in a movie.
There's an 85-year-old Irish man just rolling down the wall. Until the exit. And then he just falls out. Everybody's like, ah!
You got live music playing in almost every single place. There's somebody singing up in the front, which automatically causes for, that means there's like a wedding singer almost now. It was a great time over there. But I feel like in a lot of those places, the mindset is, OK, St.
Patrick's Day, like every day around here, like there's a lot of booze going on down there. So when you go into a bar called Irish Times, it's like, this is what's going to potentially happen. You got drunks falling out the door, potentially. You have people getting after it.
There's probably some music if I had a guest. And that's what we're saying is that's what St. Patrick's Day. I'm not talking about that.
I got those sausage fingers because I got to hold up all the beer. The whole entire day. It literally looked like everybody. And I got some fat hands too, I guess.
I guess that's part of it. But it looked like somebody just took a fucking mallet. It made me know I was like, oh my god, these mitts are big. They do not love me over there, by the way.
Believe it or not, I was not beloved in Ireland. It was actually a complete opposite. I was going to stupid, yanking more times in Ireland than anywhere I've ever been in my entire life. And I was going into some places.
And everybody assumes that I go in and just try to cause a scene. No, that's not the case. Now granted, the way I dress, I do believe, if you were to put me into a country, immediately upon landing how that country feels about America at the time, because I am the stereotypical American whenever I get dropped. But I didn't think I was being rude.
I was a Patrick Macfield. I feel like when they check my deal, I'm kind of pumped for this actually. Because every other country you go to, if you have an American thing, they read your name, they say it, they make a little very broken English, like Jocomo, it's like where you're from, they learn the whole thing. And they put it away.
I go to Ireland, I go to Ireland, and they just throw it down basically. And then they went to somebody else. I was like, oh my god. We don't want the Maccophy from America here, fella.
You and me are on the same page, OK? I'm here to have a good time. And then all of a sudden they start playing American music. And I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, this is not a bitch right here. You won't even serve them if they're, that was the only place. And I, by the way, I had a lot of respect for it. But Ireland was the, I would say, the least friendly place I've ever been.
Foxy, you feel the same way? Yeah, I went there in the summer once. And we walked in to do a random bar meeting my family. And there's this guy at the bar sitting there.
And he gets all like kind of pissed off. And we're like, do we do something? Bar tender had to come over and say, hey, like, you guys are from America. So some people aren't really happy if you go into certain bars and stuff.
That's real. They actually had to give us a warning. Also the fact that people from Ireland liked to booze 100% facts. Yeah, yeah.
It was that was the only country I ever thought I was going to get my fucking ass beat just for just for being from America. It was weird. It was all I mean, it was kind of awesome. I'm sure it's the same Patrick's Day.
It's throttled up too. But I was there for like 10 days. It was like a circle. It started to finish it throughout all of Ireland.
Yeah, Dublin wasn't like that because you're in Dublin. You're basically in just any city. It's not as much Dublin as massive. It is huge.
Like I assume there's parts of Dublin that are not fantastic or whatever. It's not like, hey, welcome, fella. It's like, you can go down to the next pub. How do you feel you're doing here?
We don't want that money here. OK, you've already done enough, pal. The only other place that really happened to me was France, the fucking teenager. Yeah, that'll happen.
Yeah, it will happen. And you're not like America. All right, let's move on. That's not what we're saying Patrick's Day.
That's not what we're saying Patrick's Day. That's past the old day. Yeah, that's right. Which sounds like a bit different.
Yeah, we will play Pompeo. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. All right, let's get a fella day. Here we go.
Now, who knows what has happened with the Bears? But let's dive into that yesterday, after ours. OK, after our show went off air, the NFL was a little bit rude, just like they were at the Jamis Winston News. Andy Dalton, formerly of the Dallas Cowboys for a year, formerly of a Cincinnati Bengals organization for a long, long time, he is now all signs are pointing to the new quarterback for the Chicago Bears.
Wow, $10 million around there. There's conflicting reports, whether it's worth $13, $14, $10, $10, $10, $10, $10, $10, $10, $10. $10 million around there. There's conflicting reports, whether it's worth $13, $14, $10, $10, $10.
It's more money than what Fols is making next year, I believe. So this is saying that Andy Dalton's going to be their starter. And I'll tell you what, we, as a Red Rifle show, never been on the show. You actually canceled on this couple of times.
What? He did cancel out. More than once. That was the one who was trying to save him.
Yeah, he did cancel once. He was automatically canceled. Now, it wasn't his fault. He canceled.
He had just signed with the Cowboys literally the day he was supposed to go on the show. Now, we would say as a show, like, right kind of have you on the show now. But he said, well, he didn't want to piss him off or whatever. I do believe he watches.
He's probably watching right now. So Andy, I want to let you know. Congrats on the Chicago deal. You did fucking kill us one day.
Yeah. Perfect time for redemption, though. Here we go. Yeah, we're back.
Well, I don't know if the Bears are going to allow a lot of people in this particular show. Oh, I love it. Well, I was, you know, I understand that you're a fan of hood is big. But normally, if one person on the show says something negative about somebody gets back to them, I have buried the Bears pretty harshly.
Have I known about it? We were just judging their character, making them better. Not judging their character. I was not talking about their character.
It was a complete opposite, actually. Not judging their character. But anyway, moving on, Andy Dalton's situation was a massive letdown to what a lot of the Bears sounded like on the internet yesterday. And that's strictly because one day before they signed Andy Dalton to be their starting quarterback.
And Andy has won a lot of games. He won Cincinnati's organization. That organization doesn't even try to win games. It might be different now.
They're paying people and everything like that. But Cincinnati's not like, hey, we're going all in to try to win this thing ever. That is not what they're doing. Andy Dalton, playoffs 11 win seasons over there.
I mean, they had a string of like 10 or more wins for a certain amount of years. Andy Dalton has had some good football play in places that you would never expect good football play. Everybody remembers them back at TCU. I mean, what an absolute skype.
Andy Dalton is. But the Bears fans are like, yeah, we hear all that. We're supposed to get Russell fucking Wilson yesterday. So I guess the story is coming out that Ian Rapport reported this morning on Good Morning Football.
The way the story goes is Pace and Schneider met in Fargo, North Dakota. OK, so they went out to North Dakota for Trey Lance's pro days, what you would assume. Now they started talking. They exchanged a couple trade requests or ideas.
Inevitably, the Seahawks slept on it. And after Dan Patrick, who is a man who know OG in this game knows everything, he reported this morning that it was three first rounders, one third rounder, and two starters were offered over to the Seattle Sea up. Nobody knows what starters they were. Dan Patrick, OG, let's assume his sources are accurate.
This could be coming from Chicago to try to soften a blow of baby Dalton. But let's assume that this is an accurate report from Dan Patrick who is legend in his entire sports world. Three first, one third, two starters, two Seattle for Russell Wilson in return to Chicago. So now that we know there was actual steam happening, and there was actual conversations happening, being reported by numerous people here, we got to dig a little bit deeper, don't we?
That's right. OK, so when a picture is posted on the internet, all anybody does is they zoom into the background. They start looking around about what's going on in the background. It got me into trouble.
Andrew, look. OK, so that's what you're going to do in life though. When you hear this story that Schneider in Pace met up in Fargo, North Dakota, you have to go, oh, why are they in Fargo, North Dakota? I think I zoom in a little bit.
What do I wait for? Oh, they're there for a pro day, obviously. OK, let's zoom in a little bit more. Who's the pro day for?
Trailants? Oh, yeah. Why Schneider at Trailants is pro day? Oh.
Let's see how Seahawks moving on from Russell Wilson. Or did they say let's meet at a pro day so it doesn't look as zoom collie as it could be? Maybe. But why are they both there?
What this means that they were definitely in the market potentially for a nuclear mechanism. Unless North Dakota has some stuff that they're looking at. Why is the GM traveling to a pro day when there's only a certain amount of people that are allowed at pro days that has to be a pretty important position that they're looking at. I would assume unless you know those all pro days, which might be happening, they were going there to look at Trailants.
Is it possible that the Bears made them an offer? They watched Trailants's pro day. And they're like, I'm 70 years old. Be kind of like, we are not doing that whole project.
The answer is no the next day. Then it was reported this morning that the Seattle Seahawks have made the decision ultimately that they will not trade Russell Wilson. Then there's a conflicting report coming out that's saying, no, that is not the end of the run. He is potentially still being traded.
So if they're going to Trailants and they're listening to offers, I assume if another place was to make them an offer, they would listen to it. But is there going to be any offer better than three ones, a third in two starters? I'm on our own. I'm sure Russell Wilson and Pete Carroll probably have to put their swords away.
OK, there'll be a lot at some point, right? Just got married. I'll go your back to wedding night. Oh, man!
What we're saying is, it's more swords away. That's going to have to happen publicly, by the way. Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson are going to have to have a private reconciliation. They're going to have to figure out how that will thing went down.
Dan Patrick said, like, Pete and Russ are going to have to say, hey, boys, are you guys got the best of us? OK, we start talking. We need each other. We'll start being more.
They're going to have to do that publicly. It's going to have to be a whole dog and pony show that's going to happen where people are just going to ask the questions. And I'm wondering if we're too far gone for them to make up without nasty this thing, or publicly between them. It's very interesting what's going on with Seattle, because everybody's saying they're not shopping, they're not shopping.
And then all of a sudden, they're going to train to the pro day. They're accepting requests and doing negotiating with the Bears. It's like, is that over? Or is that still a potentially a thing?
Because I assume there are still some more teams, especially when down in Miami, that are thinking about a quarterback that they can potentially try to get, especially with three picks and the top 40 picks, this draft. Well, I mean, do you think that pushes other teams? OK, they're definitely listening for offers. Why wouldn't Miami put together something right now?
Their picks are more valuable, and they could send to us. I mean, maybe you're getting a guy in return. Why wouldn't Miami go after him? Why?
Other than the franchise thing. Wow, yeah. That is the one thing you have to remember. Unless that is why they're cutting players to free up money.
Well, but you would also be able to trade the starter. Calvary, annoyed potentially in the what you say. Oh, they also just got to Kobe. So they don't need to press it.
Hey, Kobe, a couple of years ago, he got dropped into a position that was completely has to not. Terrible. Terrible. He doesn't know the offense.
He plays. They do not win a lot of games. Everybody's like, uh, Jacobi. It's like, no, there was moments in there where a guy who had no idea what the fuck he was doing in an offense played pretty good.
Then the next year, Andrew's coming back eight days before the season, the entire offense, the entire offseason, everything shaped around. Andrew locks back. He's feeling better than ever. Jacobi percet is your backup.
Then eight days before the season start, there's actually the video of Jacobi learning about when he was going to be the starter of the team. He gets in there. He renegotiates his deal. He plays good football.
Yeah. Then he gets hurt. Then he plays not great football after he got hurt. And now Phillip Rivers comes in.
Jacobi percet, if he's given a fair shake, and I don't know what's fair in this world anymore, you know, because you see a lot of shit popping off. Guys are getting cut today, allegedly that are like big time names. If they would have been cut 24 hours together, there's a lot more more, 48 hours ago, there's a lot more money available. It's not really fair for there.
But if Jacobi gets a fair shake, I think he could be a fucking stud quarterback. Like I would have to be the right offensive system. I don't know what Miami will be able to do. But I think he has a chance to be really good.
And that's just coming from somebody who watched every play he had as a starter with the mindset like, this guy's kind of been fucked over a little bit in this entire thing. Beat the Chiefs in Arrowhead during their Super Bowl year. Like if Jacobi has a real shot, then he could easily be a 10-week. That's an interesting thing we're going to have to do.
There were some throws that Jacobi made, like out of the back of the end zone that were like Justin Herbert throws a happening this year where he was throwing to a spot. His wide receiver wasn't there yet. It was only for him. He was throwing it basically out of bounds.
But there were a couple throws he made. They were like 30 yard. That was like, oh, this guy's a fucking player over there. He talked to him.
He's kind of a cool dude. Great athlete. Good Hooper, I guess. And he's getting into the golf game.
Who knows how that'll be. I think he has a chance to be good. I'm not saying if you're a Miami-Dolven fan, you should be like pumped. But I think you should be a little bit more optimistic than you probably are.
Jacobi's a good player if he gets a chance. I mean, especially if two have struggles early. I mean, you got to think that's why they've got to go. Four-squared Jacobi.
You see what fixed magic did last year? That's when you three quarters are chilling. And then we need you to do that. He did all the goal line stuff in India when rivers went out.
Yeah, he would come in and out of nowhere. He's not like the most mobile guy. He can run, but it's not like he's a nerd. And then they keep coming in the game.
They're like, oh, here we go. A different style quarterback. Wow, cat pack. He's like, no.
Jimmy's sneaked eight yards. By the way, he was getting the edge of him a couple times. He was getting caught too. But I mean, I like the fact that the Colts were like, hey, we got to get him at least some place.
This guy deserves it. And I think if he gets a chance in Miami, I'm not saying he will. Maybe he'll be a backup to do or whatever. Whatever's going to go on down there.
But he's a player man. For the Bears fans who are upset with Andy Dalton. It's not really Andy's fault or is it more of the organization? Like, hey, you knew you were moving on for Mitch, like probably a year ago.
And you waited all this time and you ended up with Andy. Like that's not option A, B or C. Well, remember, Deshaun Watson, they were allegedly all in on. And that was when the Texans were not answering calls.
I assume they're answering calls now, by the way. There's some shit going on in Houston. Yeah. That's not usually our, I don't like the, what's going on in Houston right now is very, and this will be a case study for time to come about how media is potentially used to do things.
Not granted, if this happened, I hope justice is served. And if not, though, I would like that story to be just as loud as it's going to be here in the front about these potential. He said she said allegations are, he said, he said allegations that are happening right now. That's wild.
And the immediate conspiracy thought, the critic skeptic thought that situation is like, oh, they're trying to make a book better. The timing's interesting. Oh, they're trying to make a book better right now. But we will let the people do their due diligence.
I had no idea that you could even file a lawsuit on something that is a direct, he's literally, he said, he or she said, I didn't even know you could do that. Seems like it's getting a lot of attention, but this could also be potentially a very evil manipulative way to bury somebody. It'll Dave Sands. Bingo.
That is a man who came on the show, he used to be the president of the Marlins, and basically said like, oh yeah, we'll fucking, we'll just make things up about people, make them all terrible so the fans don't feel bad when we train them or cuddle. It's like, what, why do you say anything? He said, can't we all get along? No, no we can't because I did not truly hate that.
That's what he said. You are scoping, you're doing it. I guess that's business, but it's disgusting. Today there are moves being made, people being paid, people being cut still, salary cap gymnastics, joining us is a man who's a head coach of a team in Nashville, Tennessee, in which I wear their merch literally every weekend.
They sent us, they got Jordan merch. What? Yeah, it's nice. And I believe they won a lot of games, I'm not sure if they want to all, so I don't want to declare him something he's not.
Formerly of ESPN and obviously Super Bowl Champion and NFL Ladies and Gentlemen Trent Hill. What's up guys? Hey, sorry about the other day. Oh, yeah.
Yeah, you buried our show Trent, buried the show. No, no worries. I had to take a last second free agent trip when I saw this backup money being thrown around. I'm not playing it.
Go negotiate. Hey, I still got it. I'm coaching now. See, I got a different view on this whole thing.
I can still sling it. Now that led to a question that I'm not saying you have to tell us where you're going, but is Lipscomb Academy a place where you do recruit? Is that a recruit? Do you recruit people to go to Lipscomb Academy?
No, we can't recruit. We try to make our place really attractive. And a lot of people around middle Tennessee are curious about the education and football opportunities, but we can't go recruit. But when they get there, you can make them say, look.
Yeah, when they get on campus and they are looking for a place to go to high school, we try to make it really attractive for them to come to our place. Hey, you ever heard this guy kicking the NFL for 45 years? Yeah, he's one of the coaches. He's got super easy.
Yeah, he's. We got a pretty good little squad here. I know you're probably going to go to some other places. Just know that when you walk out of this building, you're probably not going to see another one.
It's better. That's good for you. I'm happy you got a coaching game. You said it was your calling.
Can we talk about your Super Bowl Championship run? You had his quarterback right now with free agency. Did you ever experience free agency? What was your business dealings like throughout your career?
Not as glamorous as going on right now. I was a free agent after 99 in Tampa, ended up starting with Baltimore again, a free agent after that season signed with Seattle, but not like these guys are going through it. It's an incredible experience. I'm glad for the players.
I think what it's done to reward them with generational type wealth, if they play well, is an awesome opportunity for athletes. I think it allows teams to get back in the mix pretty quick. If you have some cap room, I hope the Jacksonville Jaguars, who haven't played real well the last couple of years under new leadership and they're able to go spend some money that a lot of cap freedom. They can get good players and also have a lot of draft capital.
So I think you can turn your organization around rather quickly because of free agency. If you partner it well with your draft capital. How about Bill Belichick doing what he's doing, man? This is, they're saying he's not done either.
That's anyone from very average last year to potentially every skill position is new. In the old adages, you can't win games in March. I think Bill Belichick won some games this week. Yeah, you definitely say yourself helped to win some games in March.
I too agree that it's been out of character for the Patriots and Bill, but I love what he's done. He's recognized what life after Brady looks like. They got to spend some money. I like what they do at the tight ends.
