. . I think their limit wanted to go league wide it with it I think but you know what with the Jets it starts with your head coach.

Absolutely. Yeah, it starts at the top But you know what Rex Ryan said it last week. He said We're not we're not putting a muzzle on our players.

We're letting them say whatever they want because that's what we do We know what then you're gonna deal with the consequences that come with that. I mean, there are some situations there that The deal with light calm already. We had this conversation.

Absolutely. Well, he's throughout some gestures. Tom Brady Said he was something of a of a body cavity.

Yes. I don't know if that's I don't know if that's necessary. I'll agree with you there He should have been fine in my opinion.

Let me ask you this and then something got weird to me And we'll I'll explain this first West Welker does a press conference where he makes 12 11 or 12 different references to things of a feet nature and for those you don't know There was a story well, there's a story earlier this year with Rex Ryan's wife and foot fetish videos and To me that was very uncharacteristic of him. Yeah, I was like who the Welker said that yes This is a guy that you don't see very vocal great player You don't and I was very shocked to see that he did that well Yeah, but Ryan had so so poke the bear there all week long. I just I don't you know, I don't know so do you think this is something that's gonna come up with the owners meetings?

I just I really because the clock clock is ticking and I don't mind I don't mind a little jaw jacking Well, I mean, you know, I'm not one to what do you kid rock say? Yes, I can't keep you back It's not it's not, but I don't mind a little he and hauling and all that but sometimes I think that that they let that Get way too. It did you got way out of hand.

I got it's personal But you know, it is now Tuesday night at a 10 after seven in central time and Rex Ryan hasn't said it's personal with the Steelers yet That's so that's important Mercy I got so sick of hearing that well they and and all they can do now is how do you like me now this time next week We will be talking about your matchup for Super Bowl and fire here in beautiful Dallas, Texas. That's an Arlington People in Arlington get a little upset about that. What's the palace and Dallas?

It's an Arlington Well, you know what it was an Irving and they so called it down. Yeah, so deal with it Super Bowl tickets not sold out yet. Well, there's some some I will tell you this I got some insight in the Construction world every single piece of road work will cease construction Thursday night No more road construction the cities surrounding Dallas or it's surrounding suburbs So if you're dealing with traffic here in Dallas clean your mess up if city of Dallas got 48 hours city of Dallas is throwing down the gauntlet On that kind of stuff a lot of road clean ups I think the Super Bowl with this will be one of your cheaper Super Bowl tickets because that the the size of the stadium It's over a hundred thousand.

That's the requirement though. Yes, and I think with the size of the stadium and the economy I think the NFL has had to lower Lower those ticket prices. Well, I'll tell you this much.

They're already having problems I don't know if you saw this item Friday night of the news Some artifacts have been stolen from the stadium Paintings and things of its ilk relating to the Super Bowl. So it's already started brother And that was at our trusted CBS affiliate with my favorite anchor. Yeah great Karen Borta great Get brought brought that news to me.

I'm fighting now Right now you can say I'm just Super Bowl tickets right now stub hub in the price range of $2,200 to $5,000 if you got that on me If you go to stub hub right now and look at Super Bowl tickets, it's still the Super Bowl It's still going to get you get them through ticket master right now. I believe not okay. I've always been told so technically sell out Right.

Yes. Oh, yeah, it's gonna sell out the hooker by crook. It will sell out Anybody has a sweet and wants us to broadcast live there.

We'll do that. We have the technology We do we can't take this on the road We'll go down the we'll go down the night before if you want us. Yes, we know we'll broadcast on a good convention center I'll broadcast from the back of my car if maybe hopefully I'll have my car back Yeah, they're shutting down roads.

So the the Super Bowl buzz and his hitting North Texas very very hard Excited does anything this coming up Sunday get you if you Told me and I didn't know that the Super Bowl was in 12 days or like 12 and 17 days I'm not I'm not feeling it this year and I don't think it's because I don't have a pony in the race especially now after this weekend but It just doesn't I don't have that I don't have the the Super Bowl fever as people like to call it I do a little bit. I think it'll be real for more real for me next week Yeah, once the teams get their respected the the Hallis and the Hunt trophies are given to the respected NFC and AFC champions I think I will then the week off the buzz. I think locally there'll be such a buzz that'll get me ready just being around it Of course the NFL experience you look that I'm thinking about doing that you know if you want to go I'll go with you because I've been thinking about that every Super Bowl ring on display and how often we've never had that this time.

Yes, never had anything like that When it was in Miami and I live down there. I didn't do it Yeah, I think I do want to do it. I'm a book that I may go up and try to do that and just to say hey With Super Bowl's in Dallas.

I went in if you'll experience what let's put yeah And I believe you can get on NFL.com or there's a 1-800 number associated with it And there's gonna be former players signing autographs They'll have a daily list of who's gonna be out there. So sounds like a lot of fun The parties are already starting to be announced who's doing what of course Rinse doing a show at where reunion are they used to be in attendance? You've got $1,500.

Yes, you can go to that the Who is it Gene Simmons of course at the ACEs and Angels party? Yeah, if you go there and pay $475 ahead is the cheapest party in town Yep, and you can get a chance to play in the World Series of Poker while you're there And they will be filming an episode of his show family jewels at that party Diddy's having an after party somewhere T.O.s got something going on at the ghost bar. I mean it the party buzz is starting to hit Dallas So but in order to get there we got to go back rewind a few days And we're gonna take another trip to NFL what a heartbreaking we can I went I went three and one I went three and one I think I did I split because I think you and I had two of them different Yes, you we both know you went to the dark horse of course my my dark horse Thank you Seattle for a great run.

Yes, um But let's start out in Pittsburgh Saturday midday. Why would we leave it? Why would you believe the Jesse the With the best game of the of the weekend and it's the first game of the week to me.

This was a game of two halves Oh, absolutely if that game's 30 minutes Baltimore's Baltimore's ready to rock. Yeah, the most disappointing stat here Joe Flacco go 16 for 31 25 and one touchdown It was a very weird game. I thought Pittsburgh's wheels was off when it got 21 to seven.

I said, okay We have we've done all this stuff. We're we've done that so Defense seem to be clicking You know one one thing I'm putting the bed the big bad Ravens defense. I'm putting that to bed Yeah, you give up 31 points They converted on third in 19 third in 12 third in 15 and third in 14 I'm putting that big bad you and I talked early on in this game and we were like this is insane And then in the fourth quarter we were going this is insane.

Yes, I mean, I was ready to click it at halftime I was like yeah, I mean I'll stick with it, but man This is gonna. I like all of a sudden it was like somebody told the Steelers that they were gonna not be able to play again If they didn't win and somebody told the Ravens, they'd already won Yeah, you know, same thing Ben Walsersberger a Million dollar quarterback 10 cent head. Well, what did you text me in the third quarter make up something will happen in the fourth quarter He'll make a big throw and he did third in 19 hits the guy down the sideline.

They punch it in three three plays later ballgame But I'll tell you one guy that will never step on an NFL field again less it's for any emergency situation T.J. Hush minzada I'll what thanks for coming out. I wouldn't have let you on the plane to fly back to Baltimore fourth and 18 You're wide open and you flat drop the ball.

You flat drop the football Now let me ask you this did we have because that was a close game. Yes Was there a phantom call in that game a phantom hold? Yes, I believe on the kickoff return.

Yep. I never saw it. I never saw a hole I saw the cell and that I saw the cell.

Yes, and that is a game-changing play if you're a Baltimore Raven We we you think we may we could have seen the new overtime rule. Yes, I yeah, how that stood I wanted to see that because I didn't see it. I didn't see the whole there was a lot of iffy calls in that game Boy, I tell you this but congratulations Pittsburgh Congratulations barbed wire.

Yes, I want to tell all cowboy fans We are not the greatest football organization in the world right now Under the Yankees. I said it last week the Pittsburgh Steelers are the best ran organization in sports Well, we had us a barn burner in hot land a Saturday night Depends on your definition of our green Bay goes to somebody torches one. Yeah, that's what happened there Boy that that was a game that hinged off a pick in the in zone and and Matt Ryan never got his wheels back on the game Never could get them back on the prototype showed weakness Yes, and I'm gonna say this and this is not I'm not exaggerating Roger 31 for 36 36 and three touchdowns That dude showed out Atlanta.

Hey, man. No, I always thought we talked about this to me the NFC had the two weakest one seeds I think I've I've seen in a long time. Yeah, I know I didn't have faith in either of those teams Either your home teams.

No, but it was like green Bay came out and you know Atlanta went marched down the field for saying the boss It will just look at out of here. To me right now whoever wins the FC wins the whole thing. Yes.

I like Green Bay Atlanta just to me they never could They had a a weird situation where Matt Ryan couldn't get anybody to hold on to the ball Turner Turner went Turner went non-existent and it was just it was a real funny clunky top of the game for Atlanta You know turner turner turner 10 carry thirty nine. Yeah, that amazed me when I heard that on Sunday morning It was like Atlanta was still in the locker room, but Falcon fans Don't get down. No, you had a great season right season.

Congratulations to you. Yeah, so green Bay runs away there Then we move on to Sunday in soldier field Seattle another fan base. Don't hold your head again Oh, can we go back just a minute?

I'm sorry. There's something I got here that Packers Falcons game Fox's most watch telecast and that time slot in 15 years 31.4 million people watch this game. You know what it's what did better than that 1996 Green Bay San Francisco Green Bay's hey then fans will watch and they will flock to your town if the if Green Bay makes a bowl We don't do Wisconsin migration down south will happen.

Oh, absolutely But Sunday Seattle does come in do soldier field to pick on the Chicago Bayer. Did they really? I think there may be shenanigans.

I'm I'm blaming well I know if somebody kidnapped everybody and put on those uniform The stat that jumps out at you is that Seattle scored for 21 points in the fourth quarter. Yeah, well because Was Chicago worried that pass will back not a bad day 26 for 46 to 58 It's not like let's see. I'll just lay down Cutler 15 for 28 to 74 and two TDs the difference in this game was cutler realized he could not throw to the other Team yep, but we said that last week, which Jay Cutler is gonna show up on Sunday this slowly working his way into that Mike Mark system and you never know he could be very very very successful.

I Don't know I like Chicago. I like the snow. I like the stadium the defense I will say this again Brian Erlackers the most overrated player in the National Football League at this time at this point in time At this point in time at this point in time, but the Bears defense peppers I'm gonna tell you this we'll get to the predictions next but I got a good one that then Sunday Sunday late afternoon here we go the most watch Divisional playoff game in history.

Yeah 43.5 million people Watch this game. So almost one in every four households. Yes, what's on this game?

They The Nobody saw this coming the jets went to and to Foxboro Gillette stadium and took care of business and let me take something and I told you this we talked on the phones the late Sunday afternoon to me It seemed like the Patriots didn't know what to do. They were they it was almost like they bought into their own hype So much that here we went and And Wait a minute. You mean we're not gonna win this game and they didn't know how to recover as the jets do win 28-21 I don't let that scorefully.

Yeah, I was very impressed with Mark Sanchez not as much as a gaudy stat day He kept the ball away from the other team That was a different in Baltimore's defense was up to the task. I'll tell you this I believe in my opinion That new England in order to keep doing what we have all as NFL fans become a customer them doing If they want to keep doing that. They've got to upgrade their position players their skill players.

Oh line What wide receivers? West Wilkirk. West Wilkirk is not a game-changing player to he can pick up a team put on his back Danny Wood Danny Woodhead great running back great story Also NFL noteworth got his name.

Yeah, he's not he's not a starting running back in the national football league It's just not there and I miss the The Braille and Edwards backflip home and at the end of the game. I'll be also new England's defense They couldn't stop the nosebleeds. That's that's not bad.

That's what Bart Scott said on the four letter That was actually right. Did you watch that interview? No, I don't give you queue that up on on YouTube But they were Bart Scott was out control and it was you know You go that one that link to the game one turnover by Brady He had one turnover the whole entire game I believe if that game gets seven nothing.

I don't know if the jets ever recover I think that that one interception late late in the first quarter turned that game and It just seemed that the longer that game got the Patriots got caught in the tails How big and I'll ask you this okay? How big of an epic fail in is this new England collapse And we we had talked about this early in the week To me and you can you can cue the tape I've said this all season new England and Indy have not been new England Indy in the 2010 it sees it because there's no there wasn't there wasn't that mystique of holy crap It's the course or holy crap. It's the Patriots.

You didn't have that feel so to me this collapse Do I don't even consider it a collapse? Well my deal with new England and I'll throw in the I'll go there with you Indy here's deal Indy Dallas Clark out you realize what a big cog in the wheel Dallas Clark was this year when he's not on that field And I'll tell you who else I thought made a difference when he went down Garceau yes, that was a huge That's taking away that guy who can run all over you and you've got Dallas Clark who can Yes, almost be the next Jane Overcheck It that really killed them, but still they didn't have that mystique that they've always had just like new England Yeah, their skill players have gotten old. I think new England the offensive line.

I'd never seen Brady that rushed Yeah, I think they've got an aging offensive line. I know you've got two rookie tight ends and you have and I thought algae crumpler at played a great game Great. Yeah, he did play you heard his name quite but you've got to get I think you he's a big old boy You just don't have any impact players on offense for new England besides Tom Brady the people just aren't there Just this not there anymore.

Just not keep the people what they want. They're not They're not But new England don't hold your head you got three rings. Mm-hmm.

So that brings us to let's have a little different place, shall we? Yeah I'm a board. I am shot one of these teams is still standing Charlotte Parker if you listen to this don't ever doubt the greatness of the hawk again She they're there they're worked there are two left.

Yes, we start with bears Packers They've only met once in the postseason that was in 1941 and I this with their hundred and forty first meeting all time 33 to 14 bears in that game Both times they've met this regular season those games were decided by less than seven points So let's not get crazy and crap anybody in the NFC just yeah, you know I think and I know this is gonna be hoki and by the way I will go ahead green Bay by four so Chicago opening up as a home dog I Think this game comes down to something that people out here listening, which we appreciate everybody listening tonight absolutely live on you stream. I Think this comes down to turf That field in Chicago is a choppy nasty mess, but green Bay I mean was it like two hours difference between these two towns a great rivalry I think Chicago. I think Chicago can win this ball game 10 to 3 week 15 week 16 and the bears beat him like a drum and Lambo earlier in the year So I I would say if you looked at the score though and both road teams can't win Yeah, I just think the Chicago home field advantage is gonna be huge to them and then I'm gonna go out Charlotte you're going to the Super Bowl.

Yeah, I'm picking the bears. I don't know why I'm not kind of I'm not do I'm not drinking the green Kool-Aid on green Bay just yet because I've seen Aaron Rogers melt down in big games I think this will be this will be the one if if green Bay loses This will be that thing that gets Aaron Rogers is head right with ball. Yeah, but I'll take Chicago But it's just it's gonna be weird to me to see Jay Cutler holding this the George Hallis NFC championship trophy Weird I will go with the bears there by a little bit.

I think defensively They're better than green Bay on the on the in the trenches as far as defensive line offensive line I will give the nod to green Bay and receivers. They have a very deep receiving core But Chicago will pound the ball. Yes, and where if you're 10 if down if for take can get going and also and can can catch it out They were running him like a wide receiver against Seattle.

Mm-hmm I just think green I think Chicago wins a close one and Chicago fans don't record that new version of Super Bowl shuffle until 5 30 on Central time on Sunday and we go into the big catch a bottle Hines Field as the New York jet Whether ETS jets jets. Yes, yes rolling it. I never this looks like I'm I want nameth in and Bradshaw, I'm gonna say it screams at me.

I'm gonna say it barbed wire You're going to the Super Bowl. You think yep. I just think the I can't put it past the jets because they have shut down two Top notch quarterbacks in this league two weeks in a row But there's a difference The noise yes.

Oh, yeah, you're right again. It's now 7.29 Central time on Tuesday night and Rex Ryan hasn't made this Camp personal Rex Ryan knows better because this Steelers you can you can poke fun and you can have a good time with Indy you can poke fun New England's in your division So you're going both home teams. Yes, sir.

I just think the jets I think the jets are on in in a situation right now If Paula Malu plays as bad as he did Sunday against the jets I Pick one country LT Braille and Homes no let homes come back home and show out. I just think Paula Malu But what we said about Chicago. I think will applies with the jets what Mark Sanchez shows up What let's what what is he going to do?

I think that there were times Sunday against Baltimore where that Steelers billy-bad defense Looked vulnerable at times. They looked vulnerable the jets have already beat them once this year in Heinzfield We've already seen them beat there by this team Just I'm just saying I don't think lightning strikes twice. I think the Steelers are on a mission I think that it's it's gonna be Jerry's gonna have to deal with Chicago and Pittsburgh right here and going to Texas.

They'll both travel I don't know very well. I'm really dealing with they'll both travel well, I think but I'm just happy it's the way it should be it's football in January and it's outdoors no dome no turf. I'm ready It's outside football.

I'm ready. It's outside football. Let's play right now.

Yes I hope there's so much snow and Pittsburgh and Chicago be unreal. Well memory of that Chicago game It started out kind of and they blew it all out all of a sudden that snow just all showed up at one time and it was Whoa, I'm glad I got a high definition television. I would be able to see this game And then they went out there with the little blowers like you do your leafs.

Yeah, well, that's what they do up there Yes, that happens in Dallas, but you've got power outages and people are raiding Walmart for water And I'm not joking people if you don't live here It's that bad in this town when the weather gets bad. Yes, we sell out a ranch style beans and wolf brand chili pretty cool Well, how long has it been since you've had a big old bowl of wolf man chili? Thankfully for my wife a very long time.

That's too long They didn't pay me a dime to do that and again, you are listening to the clubhouse with Robin Cody live on you stream each and Every Tuesday night we are here eight on the east coast five on the west coast We thank you for being here with us visit our website www dot the clubhouse with robin Cody dot com you can get to our blogs You can contact us.

We will be on iTunes.

There's missy We will be on iTunes hopefully in February. That's what we're hoping for Let's talk a little basketball I'm seeing something going on in B.A. that we have not seen a very long time Talk to me seeing a rookie dominate the league With that rookie you mean one Blake Griffin of the LA Clippers who man handled my Miami formally of The University of Oklahoma Great player great player um has some of the craziest dumps I've ever seen this dude right now average in 22 and a half a game 12.8 rebounds per game and 3.4 per game So now I don't know if you heard this bit on local radio today Do you know who the last person to win rookie of the year and the MVP?

I think that talks a little premature But do you know who it was? Well, I just I don't see Blake Griffin and it's only been done twice I don't see Blake Griffin winning the MVP. I don't want to go that far with it I just didn't see after he broke his knee cap missed all of last season I didn't see him coming on like I thought he was another Odom that's what's gonna say were you worried about Greg Odom?

I thought I thought he was gonna be another Greg Odom And I'm glad he isn't the kid. I love to watch his highlights every night I mean, and it's almost every night he has got something I mean they had a picture of him on ESPN this morning dunking He could step into the ring. He could box that dude.

He's got some guns. He's a big guy He's got that stare. Yeah, he's he's It looks good kill.

He'd be a series. I like the kid. I wish he'd I wish he's got a he's got to Develop a shot.

Yeah, I just think you can't drive the lane dunk dunk drive the lane drive I don't think you can do that and let's be honest the Clippers are 15 and 25 and 14 and a half out of first place So the Clippers are still the Clippers with or without Blake Griffin their owner is ridiculous You know too bad he didn't play for the other LA franchise or I think this could be a guy that's a really One of the at least top five NBA players the next two or three years If healthy and if it doesn't go to his head. Yeah That's the big thing with some of these young players look at me. I got a poster.

Look at me I'm doing this well now I can have it because I've made all my money I hope that it happened to the kid but man he is and he seems like he just kind of got his But I think the MVP talks a little premature on a 15 and 25 basket ball team That's a little premature This coming out car real quick. I did see this. I want to throw this out there Maverick fans This thing's bad Lakers come to town tomorrow night by the way here Dallas.

Yes. Good luck with that Followed by Blake Griffin and the Clippers good luck with both of those um Karan Butler targeting a playoff return So what he's now telling people Well I just think without dark nabitsky. This is a lottery basket ball game.

It's proven. It's proven They went what one in nine when he was out without without dark nabitsky. They are They're a lottery basket ball team And I don't because you and I have always said That Does he really make that big of a difference?

Well, we've been proved wrong. Yes He is a guy that it makes me nervous because they are so dependent on him that it's just you It's they're hard to watch without him and the other night in Memphis And yesterday afternoon the MLK special in Detroit. That was hard to watch basket ball.

I'll use the q word The mavericks absolutely quit against the the maverick the uh the grizzlies In the pistons they quit. They lost a two terrible basket ball teams. Yeah No, that was a tough maybe it's Carlisle.

Maybe he maybe he needs to get his walking papers. I don't know This is bad. We have not lost six in the row since 2002 Wow is how long this thing Tyson Chandler.

He is the heart. He's got the flute He's got the sick my knee hurts my back hurts. He's always got some stories.

He's always got something going on And when he's in the game, he scores five points. Yeah That yeah, if that's your heart, then you need to I don't want to use the transplant word, but you better find you a new heart if that's the heart of your team Well right now. I mean right now.

Yeah, Brandon's right. He is. Yes, that's sad But what have I always said about this team?

No leadership and no heart And when you don't have either one of those things you don't win championships Especially when you don't have somebody who's a clear cut leader on the team. Hey, what's been a disappointment? I just it's very they're very hard to watch right now and they better curve it around or I I don't know you know I think Karan's a little premature.

I don't know if this is a playoff team He's at at this point there. He's active like playing with fire acting like this is a situation where the mavericks every year 50 wins go into the I don't know if this is a playoff team There are bad basketball team right now Memphis. I don't know if you watched that dirt gets ejected Hey, if his first game back and he gets thrown out.

Yeah, he gets thrown out Very awkward looked very uncomfortable. I think they might are rusting back Looks very very very awkward But let's now get on to standings standings and we always do them every week standings. It's about time the NBA We need to start keeping an eye on that kind of smartly the NBA season Full swing we're getting close to the break Yeah, that's what three three weeks away We start out in the eastern conference as usual as every week as Boston's now open up to nine over New York nicks They need they need a playmaker bad The next that that team is failing.

Well, this car mellow thing needs to settle soon is it needs to settle the to me the nicks Have free-fail now last last week. We talked they were four out now. They're nine.

Garnett returns last night Boston beats Orlando That's so that's something you can hang your hat on this year because Orlando's making a move we go to the central where Chicago's kind of running away and hiding with that deal They open up to 11 over the Pacers Chicago 28 and 13 to me right now other than Miami I don't compare anybody to Miami right now Chicago looks to be the more complete team them in Boston At depth and what's on the court Miami death will get Miami I don't think they're deep this year. I said next year you're two. Yeah, I said you and I told you I've got no problem.

I understand it. Miami. Miami wins it all year two Speaking of the heat southeastern division Miami's now three up on Atlanta.

Man a little Atlanta team They're scrapping there But they're one of those teams every year. They'll get you to play off they already will get you to play And they will get a liability to the first round and they'll get their coach to shape his head for doing so after a tough loss The Lakers last night in the Western conference Oklahoma City still tied with you talk 27 and 14 Man, I thought that team be a little bit better Did you tar? No, oh, okay, see okay.

I thought they were second If you remember Oklahoma City last year They kind of came on late. Yes, and made a run So I'm not putting anything right now past the Oklahoma City Thunder at all. Yes and I think right now the injury bug it hey you're exactly right The injury bugs made its way to South Beach could call Brandon So that's good call you're absolutely right.

I think you're going to see the death issue in times like these luckily the the x-ray on Bosch from the injury Saturday night against the bulls was negative So nothing real wacky there. I don't I don't do the I want everybody hurt game Um, it'll come a city thought they'd be better, but they are tied at you with Utah at 27 and 14 Denver just three and a half back Portland five and a half back. So that northwest division Get to be a log jam the Los Angeles Lakers now lead the Pacific by 11 over Phoenix Steve Nash can't create the championship.

Sorry, bro. Like you have great memories of you 31 and 12 the lake shows record right now coming off the loss of the Clippers. Wow And in San Antonio 35 and six The league's best record Eight and a half up over Dallas nine and a half over New Orleans You know, we laughed at a buddy of ours.

Yeah, Lonnie. You talked about San Antonio. You might have had me you get you get you get credit right now Yeah, they've got they've got some key players Maybe this is like when the Chicago did their last run in 97 Maybe this is it then we said that every year from the last three.

This is their year. Yeah, and they keep coming back They they will not go away. They've now opened to eight and a half over the Mavericks The Mavericks 26 and 14 with the whoa six in a row.

They're still the fourth team in the west wow So that is your NBA standings Thank you for that Cody. Thank you. No, thank you Let's get into our first wrestling segment of the night at the 51 minute mark They make a good time tonight Was that Jeff Jeff Fox really said?

Best compliment you can give a male family member. Y'all make a good time We continue on We're gonna talk a little TNA and for those of you not educated and such things. It's not what you think it is total non-stop action Wow, that's a that's a term to describe in that bunch.

I loosely that's what they call the company First headline here is we get into wrestling talk Ring of Honor I was gonna queue up a little I will remember you, but we've got time Ring of Honor last night Taped their last match to be aired on HD net which will happen at the end of March Yeah, hey the oldie the classic ECW arena And in South Philly. Yeah, it's uh I can't Two years had a great little run, but Know who you are. They're they're taking this.

That's a positive. They're saying This is something that we're gonna do to look for more TV deals out there um I just I it's one less hour of week on my DVR unless they get a national wide table deal Yeah, I don't I don't see that happen. I think the independent right.

I think the independent scenes dead So I wouldn't say it's dead. I just don't think you can take something that's that independent and try to put it on a national stage I think that's the problem that you're gonna have Absolutely We've read something this past week that's I don't know if this is gonna work, but we've been begging for it We've wanted it and now we're gonna get it impact is going on the road February the 24th they are gonna be deep in horsemen country and brother and they're doing that also for the hearty party brothers boy Whatever. Oh, yeah, they're different.

They're different. We're caring for you. So um But you know what?

Good on you good on you T&A get that thing out of universal studios and get it into a bigger arena where you can put more people Let's see what you got nationwide because you haven't been in this town in almost three years No, Dallas is not something that really goes around their roadtapes and roadtapes. They're offices are in Dallas And that's what I don't understand That's like dubbed you never going to stand for yeah, they mean they've had two house shows here I went to the first one Good crowd had a blast almost got on their T&A today, but they they blurred me out because I did the Randy Orton Arms raise in the middle of things kind of funny But we'll see what happens also making a bit of a move The July pay-per-view Which comes after slam of bursary Whose name escapes me at this moment Rumors victory vote there no victory road there moving up to march. Okay.

Victory roads originally august Moving it to the same day As money in the bank. Okay, that is the rumor right now. Hopefully by that that paper you have another name than money in the bank Oh, no, it's gonna be money in the bank this year.

They've already said it on its man. I know Let's go live that in WrestleMania. Yes, we're getting ahead of ourselves So we're gonna see what happens if they end up going head-to-head.

They're gonna get crushed. Yes, let's be honest I respect what you're trying to do, but trying to channeling some of that let's not get started To channeling with that clash of the champions going that we spoke of last week going up against WrestleMania five. Yep And last week they taped impact three episodes in three days Which means you won't have a new ever you'll you'll know what happens on impact if you read spoilers through the superman to me that kills the product all of a sudden It's it's just like It's our OH yes because our OH shapes a month at a time and to me you can't factor in for other things Also this week came down last night.

I put this on our Facebook page. AJ Stiles got had a good doctor's appointment Says he may be ready for the next pay-per-view Well, they need him ready for against all odds. They need him put that belt back on him Speaking of impact.

Let's talk about it. Let me first let me ask you a question first. How much longer are we gonna job Matt Morgan?

I don't just I think he know each one each one of these federations have these guys that I just don't know if they know what the hell to do with it He's a fatista of TN. I think no. I think maybe he's he's a guy that they really don't don't Really know what direction to go.

Is he face? Is he healed? Is he part of a gang?

Is he on his own? Is he the champ? Is he not the champ?

They don't know what to do with him At all in my humble opinion. They need to figure it out. Yes.

Oh absolutely because Yes, the first time he swam through Stanford They didn't know what to do with him. He was team Rezner But you know what? I think he's got enough skills now that Vince could put him in a couple of decent feats Oh, absolutely you could put that I see title on him in my opinion tomorrow.

Oh, okay I'm I've always been an advocate of this guy. I've made no bones about it. I think Morgan's a great athlete You don't think he's very good on a stick.

I think he is. I find him entertaining. I just think he's stuck in a really bad blue right man.

Could be Very uncomfortable to print me He and Anderson are in the ring and ringside. I don't know if you watch this Ringside was a high school wrestling team second week in a row that had one in the impact zone the other one last two weeks ago Was the Lake Mary wrestling team which was my girlfriend in college is high school This was the Liberty high school wrestling team and they were ring side chanting the a-hole I found this uncomfortable Charles with me on this you know high school kids in that whole thing although I do so want to see kickass because I just think it looks like a cool movie But that was very uncomfortable for me absolutely if you're gonna have him do that put them up in a way so I can't see him Exactly saying Promoting youth swearing. Yeah, well, you know They're edgy.

They're edgy um Something else I noticed Could T&A do worse entrance videos for their wrestlers. Yes, they're horrible They are horrible the only person that I've seen that has actual video clips in it is the Pope And it's a car and a woman's chest. That's it hahaha Everybody else branded.

That's what Brandon's Patriots video is It's just a Cadillac and a girl's chest and there's Brandon I'm gonna leave that alone because I've probably said worse than the last week but But it's just like for a time they were pretty good like angles was kind of neat for a while. Lashley's was terrible Engine minute Can we just do can we do a wb-d is we highlights it? Can we hire a production assistant?

It's universal studios. There's gotta be one laying around somewhere. This means surely fired somebody around there Well, how they probably have fired somebody Things you used to run the Flintstones ride can you run a video animation?

That's all I want to know Oh, this guy Matt Hardy, I guess he's he's an immortal now. Yes, he is a member of immortal There yeah, I think here's the deal You you gotta you got it now. Forgive me if I'm wrong.

You have a tag team any mortal You do and they're don't they're champs. They're the champs. They're known as beer money And they're the second best tag team in the entire industry in my personal opinion currently.

Why would you then start up another one? I don't know maybe you're gonna turn beer might I think we're looking at a time where Where fortune breaks away. Yeah, okay And I think that could be a really good thing for immortal Keep that thing small What what for and you really have to turn fortune face you could do heal versus heal and have some fun with it We'll see We do get our first appearance.

I'm calling your care and angle Jarrett Just so we can keep it straight former Mrs. Angle current Mrs. Jarrett shows up and the first thing they say that she's been off television for two years I Called you and went It's been that long because I didn't notice man.

I didn't think Kurt been over that long and she was looking rough And it we seeing her and Jarrett together is it's still weird to me. I don't know But apparently she's gonna air some dirty laundry this week on impact She's gonna tell her side of the story and angles just angle got a little mad backstage, but I think it's like I'm engaged to a 22-year-old model. What am I worried about?

My why I'm taking care of business. See why I only got rid of that rocket con and I've got my head right to ball I will give TNA this and you'll have to agree with me on this They are not afraid to put belts on the line sir We had two championship matches last week. That's true.

That's one thing. I think Vince I wish he would do is maybe put the belts on a little bit a little bit going on there I guess now granted both both championships were retained by the people that walked in with them as beer money Retains their belts over what I feel was the best tag team in a business right now with the motor city machine guns As a rematch and the knockouts tag belts were defended Um, by of course winter and Angelina love Winter wins this by submission We had a knockout match one by submission, sir Various but you know what that Katie Lee virtual winner whatever you want to call her she can go. I like her I can't I've lost town with a number of female wrestlers that have said I've learned more from her than I've learned from anybody We're Vince just got a hold of something don't want to do with it Well, you know, you killed the guy that had the the pirate thing and then he was just a mad Brit They just didn't know what to do But if she's got great skills.

I think this whole angle is kind of weird I wish they do something different with her instead of being Snuff Olympicus and then everybody sees her and now she's just weird She's got more she deserves better than that in my personal opinion The Pope's free fall continues Let me let me throw something at you Go back a year This guy's getting title shots Yeah, I mean and now you're putting him an angle with Joe where you're you're saying you've got your own footage of Joe and his wife and it's two pigs getting it on the screen On the Dixie Tron Are we selling the bit are we not selling the bit because if it's the Dixie Tron that means she's obviously still involved well Yeah, you're trying to stay within k-fabe. Well speaking of they Yep, they're saying there's a new day Okay That's a backstage and um amazing reds little brother whose name happens to be crimson puts a chokehold on him and says they're coming February 3rd and they're taking everybody in a mortal down and there Is rumors out that that day is not under than a refurbed main of it mafia Minus Kevin Nash up until now. I've heard wolf pack two.

Yes. I've but Kevin Nash is not Not involved in this. He said on his Twitter Thursday night.

He is retired. He is not coming back I don't know man. I don't think it works without him I agree, but it almost doesn't work with him either It's kind of a damn if you do do damage.

You know, he's got he's gotten so beyond He's gotten so beyond the TNA bit that it's done So just sign sign the legends deal. Yeah, that's all I'm asking you to do and I also noticed that it was kind of weird for me as Jeff and Matt wrestled in a tag match On impact they were called the hearty brothers I didn't think Vince had the rights to the hearty boys good. I don't I don't I don't I would agree I would agree.

I think he does Absolutely, I believe that he does Well, because I noticed he can that they're not using the logo. They're using an augmented version of the logo At least Matt is on the jackets. He's wearing man.

He looks bad. He picked the wrong look Yeah, well, I mean And he sees out a weight. He's overweight.

They they're trying to make him look like Tyler Rex the dreadlocks Who's apparently a sir made a vendor right now Because it's worked so well in WWE. I don't I don't understand why this is a good idea. I just don't But I'll tell you what I'm gonna go back a little bit when we talked about beer money in the machine guns This is a note I had I could watch these guys wrestle every week.

Yes, they're good every week they come up with something different Vince why do you hate tag teams exactly showed it again last night and we'll talk about that here later That's gonna do it for TNA talk this week We move on with one of Cody's favorite songs of all time Is Is this like uh pop-by taking a spinach when you hear this just get you all amped up We get into a little bit of movie talk Here we go There we go your car. What there's all of a sudden. Yeah, here we go Sunday night the golden globes Did you watch have you watched any of this monologue?

I've watched a little bit I didn't see a big deal about it. Thank you for somebody being on my side here. Yeah I just I watched five minutes that NBC had up on their website And I was just kind of like what's the big deal and I think Elizabeth um I just lost her last name Hurley no that was in Zach and Mary Uh She said she was also in 40-year-old virgin.

Why can't I think of her last name? Those are thanks She said it best She said We're actors we have to have thick skins. I didn't see a problem with anything.

He said I found it funny So let's go do a do a quick rundown of your film golden globe winners. We'll talk about TV later The social network takes home four golden globes. I watched this movie this weekend.

If you haven't seen it Go right now to the show. It's a great movie. I very much they won for best drama Also won for David Fincher best director Aaron Sorkin for best screenplay and best original score So check that movie out if you have it's a great film The kids are all right wins two awards for best musical or comedy picture And Annette Benning the wins for best actress and a musical or comedy Cohen Firth wins for the King's speech.

I have no desire to film. I just don't Not only Portman wins best actress in a drama for black swan. I'm intrigued I don't know that I it might be a little too uncomfortable to pay for it I talked to a buddy of mine who saw it over the weekend.

He said it was very good, but it's very very dark Paul Giammadi wins and best actor and a musical or comedy for Barney's version I've never heard of this film. You think I would know these things Christian Bale and Melissa Leo both win for the fighter Which I've heard phenomenal things about that in you know it didn't do very well the box office But I agree. I've been hearing some great things about that for sure Foreign language film goes to in a better world.

I got nothing Best animated film goes to Toy Story 3 Matt we're going to talk about that here in a little while. Yes because we're going to get to television during TV talk Because that's a great question and it's a great show And best original song from Diane Warren she wrote you haven't seen the last of me from burlesque So that movie rears its head again But that's a quick rundown of your golden globe Film winners will talk about TV winners during TV talk of course Also announced late on Monday Howie Berry Apparently trying to get some relevance again has been cast in a biopic I don't see this I don't see this at all. I don't see the resemblance.

I don't see how it works I don't see why it's necessary As she will play a wreath of Franklin And a biopic Here's my thing Love a wreath of Franklin Queen of Seoul But are they going to be able to get anywhere near the story that was told in what's love got to do with it because Tina Turner's story was a story I don't know enough about wreath of Franklin story to be able to say it can or it can't Um, I did hear a story about a local radio personality who in his heyday Um, basically referred to her show as a house of fire right after her house and literally burnt out. Oh, okay No, no, no other than that Um, I'm intrigued. I'll always serve judgment.

So I see it trailer but Movie new releases this week. They're a really only two We have a movie called the company man, which features Ben Affleck as a guy who is a Executive in his company gets laid off in his job Doesn't know what to do ends up working and his father's construction company and kind of rebuilding his life It's kind of a feel-good type of story working the The recession into it Also, no strings attached.

Yes Good timing on that song, but yeah, the AL MVP raining AL MVP is that's a Texas Rangers for 12 million dollars to avoid arbitration They're saying going to arbitration. He may get about nine million dollars But you never get what you want an arbitration. Yes, um, I just I kind of I kind of think they need to sign the guy.

I think he's a special player. I think he's a great player I don't know if he's a Hall of Fame player I'm not going there yet. Yeah, but he's a great center fielder Also rangers news cj wilson Seven million dollar deal for one season.

You've got one more to and on Nelson crew. Yes, sir Three point six five million. So the rangers trying to tie down the nucleus of that ball club.

You've got to yes On the ranger the Yankees a close for a deal for Andrew Jones Andrew James fix to be a New York Yankee. I think he's a great D.H. I think he can D.H.

There See, I just want to thought it was weird when I put this on our Facebook page on Monday They listed him. ESPN had him as an outfielder. Andrew Jones But I was like he's like 90.

Why do you want us to put him in the outfield? D.H. You can D.H.

him and that ballpark he can still hit the ball Great player the Yankees have quietly adding some pieces. Yeah, they're quiet now saying the Pettit thing is almost done He's coming back. I have I have heard that as well.

Pettit gonna give it one more run But the big news coming out this weekend is Albert pool holes first basement for the St. Louis Cardinals Debate will be best player based all right. Debatedly.

I think for a first basement. He's aging I want a new contract by the end of spring training So it's not a distraction from the team inner out and I agree with Albert who holds completely I've always thought he was a stand-up guy and him saying I want this done before the season starts So we can get this thing locked down. I agree with it Yeah, I'm on board my deal with my deal with Albert pool hole says he is an aging first basement.

Yep I think it's time for him to look towards the ale I like and he's wondering in St. Louis. I'm not knocking.

He's great. He's He's top two. He's a lirusa guy.

He's a lirusa guy. He's top two in the ML in the MLB right now as far as great players I just And I just don't I think they're gonna be real cautious tying up a bunch of money in an aging first base But I don't think he's demanding a certain salary, is he? I know he wants to be maxed out What I don't know what he's worth on the open market.

Let me ask you this. Let me ask you this in the current age If I say St. Louis Cardinals who's the first name that comes to your mind Albert pool.

Yes Now all time you look at it Ozzy. Yeah, I never got to know Ozzy Smith. Ozzy Smith.

That's right. He and White sucks. Yeah, but Ozzy Smith very funny.

It was a divorce very funny on Twitter. Oh, you follow him. I'm sure I follow Superman now.

You heard him Superman tweet tweet tweet today. I'm sorry. I'm an elite lately Oh But yeah, yeah, there's wheels around here somewhere.

Yes, looking forward. I just I just I don't He is an aging first baseman. He is he is taught he is a top 10 player in league.

Absolutely And Ozzy Smith. Yeah, absolutely couple baseball. The Wizard of Oz couple baseball headlines there I just I'd pay the guy as we get close to cranking that thing up.

Can you believe it's almost time for spring training? Yes, I am 200 in 27 days till college football season. Anybody wants to fly us to surprise Arizona?

Do a show out there for spring training. We're on board Also, you do Tampa Yankees spring training. Go to Tampa.

George Steinbrunner field. Hey, I'm in So do you see the designs of that new stadium? Oh, can't fail vote Them and the Marlin stadium is under construction.

Yes, going forward very excited about that as well as a Marlin's greatest fan Teams moving around and stuff. They're not moving. They're just I'm just saying just they need to stay there So who needs to stay weird?

Raising to stay in Tampa in the Marlin stay in Florida. They don't need to be going to Poe dunks and say you're talking about for spring training. No, I'm talking about for baseball in general Either one of those teams is moving well Tampa's made rumblings that that's gonna be a bad baseball team there Yeah, boy.

They got they got picked clean. Yes yikes Let's go do Friday evening or for me it was Saturday afternoon As we get into a little smackdown talk. Nino Brown was fixing a roll through here Hey, one of my favorite movies of all times are CMB Am I my brother's keeper?

Yes, I am It's all I'm saying Let's get into a little smackdown talk some of you and I talked about a couple of weeks ago. I wanted to bring this up on the show I Think you and I you and I get very topical when we talk on the phone and sometimes we forget about some of this stuff And I wrote this down because I wanted to talk about it last week and I forgot to put it in the run sheet Something that I think that could work and I think if if nexus Is going to start if this thing can catch fire like it should I Think the WWE would serve itself and its fans and I hate the term WWE universe. I always have it.

I always will It would do the fan base world wide a favor Let's do WWE Europe. Let's do WWE Canada. Let's do WWE Mexico.

Let's do WWE Japan. I don't understand why they haven't done that If you're gonna separate brands, let's take it to the next level and you can have these guys You can have you could turn WrestleMania truly into a world wide experience That's very strange. I've always thought that was a weird thing because you remember the NWA did that quite a bit.

Quite a bit. They had they had different belts for different actually They had belts for different parts of the United States of America. Yes, sir.

They did But I think I think it'd be a great thing for that to happen. Will they do it? Probably not But you know and a guy that we talked about in that capacity True Drew McIntyre.

Yeah, send him ship him to Europe. You've got shameless. You've got Of course Ray Mysterio Jr.

Alberto Del Rio. Kofi Kingston. I mean the it's endless.

So they got you Got there the heart dynasty. Yes, you know, I thought Canada's the one that shocks me They've never done anything Canada in Mexico. I mean and with it with American television You've got certain cable systems that carry TSN.

I've got AT&T universe. Thank you David That has I've got BBC America And always just owned by universal NBC and then you've got Telemundo first owned by universals Well, exactly. So it makes sense.

There's no downside to this. Yes, unless it doesn't make sense From a business standpoint, which I find hard to believe Yeah, and then you could mix and mingle this thing. You can have a couple of guys come over You could bring back the Crockett cup and do the tag team tournament.

That was so great Back in the day I just I just don't see the downside. I think it would breathe new life into this thing As we know Shameless was discovered by triple H. He was in an Irish promotion that happened to be in Stamford Yes, you don't think there's guys in that promotion that you could put a WWE tag on and would go nuts exactly Let's get this thing done.

I want to know what this means. I'll run it for you I'm curious about this next point Beginning a Smackdown Rey Mysterio's in the ring running his yap like he does. Did you realize his Royal Rumble win?

Five years ago. I was at Pugsley's library in Dallas, Texas right next to who? You died on right Many many many many moons ago Five years ago right now to Rumble and he said that and I went Wow, and he went bell to bell in that match god rest it so Pugsley's library that is Not right not right Right now we are in the middle of Smackdown talk right here on the clubhouse with Robin Cody.

Thank you for joining us Drew McIntyre He's on mobile speaking though. We talked about him just a moment ago. Is this guy just on a free fall?

He is I mean he is he held that intercontinental bell for like a year and a half or something I think he's paying the sins of his growth of his wife For those of you that don't know he is married to former Deva Tiffany who was the ECW general manager. I just think he's paying earlier this spring was arrested for a domestic dispute case They found later on it wasn't what everybody said it was it was in Vegas and things were going weird They are still married still together still in love. I follow both of them on Twitter uh But it's it's just like and you're and you're the timing you're probably right He's been dealing with this ever since and now he's swimming mediocrity swimming back in this icy battle I've heard a rumor there want to put that on roads Why not that that might happen at we talked about that Multiple times I've heard you've heard that might happen at mania We asked last week about what was going oh by the way and just threw that free fall he job to trend barreda Okay, on Smackdown.

Let me drive that home trend barreda whose tag team partner was let go Beats Drew McIntyre clean be clean No shenanigans So let that sink in for a minute and a half Gabriel and slater who did not do their initiation on raw last week when they were supposed to beat up on each other I feel those sticks and you call this yeah, you call this on this very show seven days ago in this very studio I had a feeling that that that's where this thing was going They moved to Smackdown and join barretts and on a beat down on friendship join by Ezekiel Jackson. What are they going to call themselves Why not just be the nexus? Yeah, that's my whole thing.

Why are we trying to finally? I am finally finally getting intrigued on this bit I wasn't it first, you know, could we reveal that Him and punk were in collusion the whole time to expand the empire. Yes Don't get to NWOE though I don't think they are I think because I don't think they're just guys.

They brought in from the outside I think you keep it exactly where it is and we'll talk about how The raw version of this thing evolved a little bit later on in the show But I like where it's going. I'm intrigued still me to do the show live. I'll always contend that Then we get to another Deal which I'm a little confused on Kofi Kingston comes to the ring to talk about being intercontinental champion and now he's gonna feud with Swagger Whatever talk about somebody that's all of a sudden just floundering.

Yeah go you go from You know you go from the world heavyweight champion to mid card. It's very eerie similar of chamus You went from big dude to now. So chamus is on the climb again He's starting to climb up again, and I think the reason that is is they're setting them up For what's coming?

Because trust me something's coming And it better be on its way here in about ten days twelve days I'm just saying That's really all that happened on smackdown not not a very eventful show. Let me ask you this film Is there a show Alberto Del Rio was not on greatness right nice? You they've got them on every this guy works harder than seen that greatness Now we're gonna get to a part of the show everybody loves this part of the show you love it.

I love it American loves it Everyone loves it. Our friends overseas love it. Yes.

It's time You you thought that baseball talk Took weird turns off season oh no my friends Because we're about to break it down for the Copenhagen room here Time for a little college football talk. That's right. I said it college football talk.

Yes. The season never ends. That's right.

We are In two weeks on the show. We're talking about national signing day. Yes February 2nd national signing day the rivals 100 came out today But that's another show break that down two weeks from tonight.

Two weeks from tonight We will be doing a a very special probably extended version of college football talk Going over national signing day a lot of movers and shakers up and down the board in this southwest region alone Especially in the SEC and the big 12 minus two But we start off with something I've called the great Auburn escape great name by the way I thought I thought you know with me doing the texitus I thought that was pretty witty the great Auburn escape very good sir is they're seven and five next year Auburn have you already looked in the crystal ball and Cleo and you're on the warwick and got this lockdown This thing is Are we running from trouble or do we really thank all these players can make it in the league one of them one of them's a no-brainer That's your boy Albert Haynes worth two point out. Oh, I was gonna say. I thought you were going with who's on the show Like you really think this guy's ready to go.

I think Fairly. Yeah, I think Nick Fairly is Is day one ready. He's got to be a guy though.

Here's my thing with Nick Fairly great player played his butt off in the last two games that Auburn played this year. Yes He's got to go into camp well open ears and open eyes. Yes, because I'm gonna tell you something These these cats are no joke.

They I've said it before when you're in college You're playing you're going in parties. You're meet girls. Hang on story houses.

These guys are putting food on the table What you do is you duck taping to a gall post and put bars of soap and socks Bar is a soap Oh Then your feet would be nice and clean that's true. There's no feet in those socks now. I'm with you.

Okay Very yeah, I just have a feeling he's gonna be a guy that they are gonna They are gonna enjoy the rookie hazing with Nick Fairly He has attitude and like you said you coined it. I believe that he is 2.0 Albert hands where he is and how he looks like just that guy But he single-handedly dominated the point of attack in the national championship game hands down Absolutely strike while the art is hot sir. Cam Newton has done what I think everybody knew he was gonna do the day before Fairly yes the day before fairly well fairly was already negotiating with an advertiser Yeah, that was weird to me.

What do you do? And you I was weird to me Um, but Cam Newton has declared for the NFL draft people saying top five pick man. I just don't see it Let me ask you is who in the top 10 needs a quarterback that bad He's a project He's a bigger project than Tibo was in my opinion the SPN is I don't know if I can go there with you because I think he Is more a little more tuned to the pro game than maybe Tibo is yes He is I don't know if he's gonna be a project because Tibo had so much to work on and this is coming from a guy who bleeds blue and orange I'm telling you on this show.

I said it last year at this time I'm not saying he wouldn't be a pro quarterback. You can play the tape Our show is we were on the show last year at this time, but you and I were talking at the Last year if you can find a show from last January, I'll be impressed. Yes, but I think Cam Newton I'm not saying he's gonna go and pull a Sam Bradford and go start day one Yeah, he's not day one ready, but I think he's he's closer than Tibo I've got some more you know, and I actually got a list here of notable juniors.

Okay, that did go pro But real quick Cam Newton one thing's I'm hearing Ben Rothless burger They think he can take on that same feel hopefully he won't have so much trouble with the ladies I disagree has been has but I keep hearing the comparisons to Ben Roth's burger with Cam Newton I'm not really there yet. Well, we'll see more notables. Okay Ryan mallet on board Arkansas.

He is day one ready. I'm gonna say it. I don't think so.

I think he's day one ready I think he makes stupid errant throws and I think that was that was very very visible in the out in the loss to Alabama and the loss to Ohio state I think that this correctable fairly quick. Oh, yeah, but he's got happy feet. He might be he might be a guy He's got a cannon now.

There's another guy that's ready, but isn't gonna come out that I feel it's also just one ready Blaine Gabbard quarterback in Missouri Great backup somewhere great backup. He's living off a win over Oklahoma To me that's all he did there. I just didn't see a whole lot from one Oklahoma And then we've got their doors their doors blowing out there in Lincoln Lincoln.

Yeah, um Mark Ingraham former husband trophy winner running back from Alabama Julio Jones Well, let me tell you something if you're Alabama Yeah, you're starting to put X marks on your roster Julio Jones wide receiver Alabama a kid I never thought lived up to the five-star potential when he come out of Foley I think he's got great pro potential. Yeah, but at Alabama. He wasn't the game changer unless they were playing Michigan state That we thought he was going to be of course the cornerback from LSU Patrick Peterson is out It's it's good.

If this is a very underclassman heavy draft Jonathan Baldwin the five-star wide receiver out of Pittsburgh's also coming out It's a name party. Oh, no, no with the chaos. It's going on in their court coaching system right now In this underclassman three four names You do not see on here that I were shockingly That didn't come out Of course we start with with blackman to give him blackman the wide receiver from Oklahoma state Yep, he's coming back.

He's coming back coming back. I thought I thought I think he's day one ready He reminds me a lot of a little des good or bad um, of course um Not to beat a dead horse in the same state But uh brain and weed in their quarterback Oklahoma state also coming back. Yep.

Well them announced at the same day Ryan Burles from OU and Travis Lewis that was a lot of bad Broiles was a huge thing for yes um Broiles coming back and Travis Lewis of course at Texas and Ocho is going pro Aaron Williams to quarterback from Texas and also an underclassman kind of a mixed bag Aaron Williams from Texas shocked me that that he came out. I think this is going to be a very interesting drag Because because Gnell says the draft will happen and your latest was Steven Ridley the running back out of LSU So underclassman very heavy underclassman draft rich rod rich rod regas had him a little garage sale I thought this was funny. I was on board with this.

Yes, rich rod took all of his gear And gave it to a a goodwill type organization Now if you're that goodwill type organization. I think I'd be hit in eBay You know the organization he almost showed up to autographed all And his agent went ah Why not? I don't know.

I'm on board with that Autograph it go go to e. I'm not granted. I don't know how much you get on eBay for it given You know, yeah that situation, but good on him.

He does you know, he didn't just just don't lay in a closet absolutely There'll be somebody that'll be real happy and I'll be there won't even know they were in rich rods gear Yes, and then uh real quick one last little note something kind of shot me case keen on the quarterback University of Houston gets a six-year of eligibility. How's that? Um, ton ton of injuries remember Jason White at a new same-time situation ton of injuries He's a few hundred yards away from breaking Tommy Chang's all time passing yard record which he broke at the University of Hawaii I still think you need to get on the horn with your people over there at big 12 and get Houston in that thing Get Houston on the ball Houston or and TCU or SMU take your pick.

Yes, but yes He's gonna make him coming back makes Houston a legitimate threat in the conference kusa. Yeah, take TCU up I don't know how to join the big news here. Everybody say kusa.

I know where they got it from kusa. We we're trademarking that's right That stands for the conference USA, but Houston is a Houston SMU. Hey You see f Central Florida really conference USA's getting to be some there.

That's come might be a Oh, I'm just saying I'm just saying geographically. That's weird Houston SMU Central Florida conference USA's getting some some teams in there that's got some players That it could be a very entertaining conference. It's all I'm saying.

I'm not saying put the panel in the crystal ball, but Very very very entertaining company days 227 my last count to that goes on we need to count down clock in the studio real quick This broke is we went on the air Texas takes extends Tommy Tuberville's contract through 2015 Gradulations Tommy on that looks like he's sticking around there and that's college football talk ah Just there's something refreshing about yes college football talk just makes me happy We'll move on now to some TV news As we go back to your golden globes list because the golden globes is the foreign press awards They handle movies and television at the same time Matt you asked about boardwalk empire in one two awards if you did not watch this show HBO does it again?

I don't know Then they brag about the two mashable awards they win Which are apparently For digital and social media I never heard of the mashable awards until they talked about it on twitter about two weeks ago Yeah, I don't know man. It's a glass plaque that had like a word balloon cut out of it Probably some made up award.

Let's be honest. We'll stand up for WWE apparently one one. So Which how weird how that thing just Isle And it's a theory that you and I have talked about Chad and I talked about Brandon and I've talked about and Andrew and I have talked about I think now that this election is over I think we are slowly but surely working our way to the end of the pg era See that even referenced it last night on raw at his opening promo.

Well, it's pg. I can't go there yet. Yes I think that by this time by summer slam I think we're going back out full throttle It'll never be what it was in 97.

I don't think it could ever go back to that type of situation in my humble opinion I don't think it could ever go to that situation But we'll see for sure, but you never know You're a you're a report from someone who was there live last night. They said a little rock great great crowd Great job for the crowd a little rock. Yes great crowd But they were Definitely yes, which Vicki came out.

Yeah, they said that the two people that drew the most heat of course Was the Miz and Vicki Vicki's Vicki's heat. I noticed yes, but the excuse me excuse me bit that I think that's kind of running its course It's funny, but it's kind of We're we're slowing that thing down so But she had great heat and you know what I can't I can't dog her for it. No, she is working the bits or Absolutely, no mistake.

We get to the end of the show CM Punk John Sino one-on-one the new nexus why don't you call the nexus because there's someone next yeah new nexus Bard from ringside so they're standing up at the top of the ramp All of a sudden this guy jumps out of the crowd who you you had that you had the same thought I did you saw him from behind I'm like is that Dave? Cute guy looks off because it's a it's a Batista clone almost You gave me his name this morning It is for right now this guy is the reigning fc w champion Which for a championship wrestling for those of you not aware is basically the farm system For wwe a lot of people's come Mason Ryan Mason Ryan is the the mystery member of nexus Are we just gonna name give everybody two first names? I like I like it I like having that big out of control.

Maybe it maybe untamed I know he's gonna need some stickwork if he's just coming from fc w. He's probably gonna need some work A guy that maybe was a little too good for NXT do you think? Um, yeah, you don't I think those NXT guys sometimes get stuck in NXT mode.

Do you notice he used the rock bottom? Is that what he used It was a modified yeah, but I didn't recognize it's right bottom, but it was a little modified Yeah, you gotta get a little air under that. Yeah, it's a one of those kind of deals To me when I see him it to me if you the rock Batista kind of clone maybe the kid to do well I think Vince has to keep the youth movement and the young blood around not only that show, but the whole business Cena or in trip these guys don't last forever I'm with you I am all over this thing.

I'm I'm I can't say that I'm hugely intrigued by this but It's better than anything they've done last month You know you've got two surprise shows on two surprise Entrances on both both shows and I think you'll Jackson joining the other side of this ring you've got this guy It's time. Let's get some young blood in here and spell up these guys You've got to get some youth around it or it just flat out doesn't work Especially since you only got 12 days to the king returns There's a return to fear You know I'm saying I think you do yes absolutely Ready ready ready to see where this thing goes if we as we head down the road to WrestleMania very curious where this goes We're going to another new feature right now right here on the clubhouse with Robin Cody live each and every Tuesday night right here on you stream We appreciate you being with us absolutely Cody had a at a brainchild a couple of weeks ago and he said you know let's watch a classic match And kind of give our spin on it And I said you know what I'm kind of on board with this so new kind of kind of getting away from the this week and wrestling history Kind of freshening up that a little bit going deeper into the history of this business And this week's match great call when when I got this text from you the other night We're going to go back to the year of our lord 95 August of 19 as a matter of fact August the 27th 1995 feel the heat was the slogan for summer slam This was the eight annual summer slam the old igloo melda rena igloo Yep and Pittsburgh the pits were also known as the Pittsburgh civic arena Did you see they actually made shirts Rawls last time there it had everything listed Really every event that was ever at melda rena or the igloo Was there they had the dates listed on t-shirts. That's cool.

Yeah, we're all done several pay-per-views there So a very familiar venue To ww this did a point nine by rate which is about three hundred and sixty thousand buys down almost a half a point from 94 This let well we're gonna run me of the rest of this card before we get to our classic match It starts with Hakuishi defeating the one two three kid also known as x-pop also known as six Hunter hurst helmsley when he was called that defeats bob holly and a singles match Hmm the smoking guns defeat the blue brothers Jacob and Eli with uncle zeba kaya now do you remember these guys were Yeah, they were twins. They had long curly crazy hair and they would become ah The Harris brothers also known as d-o-a d-o-a that's right There you have a kaya went on to manage the godwins. Is that it?

That became southern justice for one week Thought we I think we messed that up there very horowitz gets a win on a pay-per-view as he defeats skip with sunny One of my personal favorite sunny Birth of fey with harby wipple men wins the wwf women's title by defeating a lunch ablaze The undertaker with paul bearer would defeat comma with ted dbassi and a casket match Then the match we're gonna oh you had Bret Hart defeating Isaac yankham with waller Then you have the match we're about to talk about which came right before diesel defeating king mabel With sir moe from the wwf title None of those matches and the ones we're gonna talk about tonight the match We're gonna talk about that I watched today just to make sure it was fresh in my mind It is listed as one of the greatest matches of its kind of all time. It was the standard bear It's the one everybody talks about as Sean Michaels faces razor remone in their second latter match of the year The first one being earlier at wrestle mania 10. I'll tell you one thing you forgot During this pay-per-view was Lex Luger made his last wwf television I was gonna talk about that afterwards.

Yeah, and the ramifications Yes, but Luger as he would get entered he would interfere keep sir moe from getting the the win for his man Yes king mabel The next week he shows up on nitro. Yes, that was his literally his last appearance in the wwf Unless we see him here in a couple of months. No, we had no Hall of Fame nominee last time.

I don't know what happened there Sean and razor razor at this point had how he had the intercontinental by title three times He was looking to be a four-time champion Some of the notice in the very beginning of this match We were showing hbk merchandise during the entrance during the entrance that guy I don't know, but I also like the entrance everything he had on I thought really popped Sean wore the blue with it with the black Tiger first and only time is that the only time he's more than that and he had the the belt He had the belt and razor came out first yes had all the pyro in the rain that Sean you know that has now which kind which was kind of interesting Also, but the way he had the back to the belt the intercontinental battle with the old silver background on it to me Made that belt pot with what he had on with the blue and the silver. He really that's one of the better intros He's had in the aisle way with the no light behind him and he kind of opens up and there he is great entrance your Commentating team for this match was Vince McMahon and doc Hendrix who we also know is Michael PSA's Hendrix says during the match that this was the eighth summer slam six of the seven previous summer slams that the icy belt was defended It changed hands. Yes.

This is also a little more history on this. This was a a come a rematch of a a match at WrestleMania 10 That in my opinion is the greatest WrestleMania match of all time in my opinion. I will differ on that sir I think that I mentioned that a little bit earlier as you you get a maybe come WrestleMania week We'll you get some list together on matches But to me that that match really it sold the WrestleMania 10 card.

This was a rematch to that Did it live up? I liked it. There were more bumps in this one.

Yeah, well this that's why this one is the standard bear more the ladder match in my opinion Sean had won the icy title from Jeff Jarrett at in your house to lumber jacks There was really no build up for this. It was originally supposed to be Sid versus Sean Something happened. Sid was removed from the match two weeks before razor shows up.

They were in his match They spun this as a viewer's choice. Is that what it was? Sid was guaranteed the following night on Rawl.

He got the winner He was number one contender for the tournament. We had a number one contender for the intercontinental battle and talked about that Sid's got it was a doctorate. Sid's got to be licking his chops and lauler too.

Yes, but lauler Sid actually got the winner of this match the following night on USA on Rawl. Okay This was face versus face. They weren't seeing that a whole lot anymore And I'll tell you what razor had a heck of a pop in the beginning of the match that crowd went crazy which hit the hall was as razor hall was over Then how many vignettes were there before he showed up?

I mean this this is kind of what I see them doing with Alberto Del Rio right now A lot of vignettes leading up. He was on the shows every week. You saw razor Ramon a lot Which made his jump to WCW forming the outsiders that much more of an impact because not only did you know who this cat was You knew where he came from he was there all the time never got never got higher than I see belt never had to yeah He always kind of hung around that This stop me down Uh at one point Sean almost loses his trunks He did that WrestleMania 10 remember he lost the model.

I think that might have been a little and Doc Kendrick said there's a full moon and Pittsburgh that I Uh bad spot falling off that ladder as he his knee kind of catches the the cross handle thing Lot of bumps in this and I couldn't tell if that was what he was trying to do or not But kind of razor kind of spun that and took a lot of time focusing on then you reminded me a lot of Ric Flair Where you don't have that much anymore where you have you tell a story of a guy focusing on a certain body part to try to soften him up Yeah, you see it every once well, but not as much as you did back then um High spots out the India There's a whole lot more high spots the only high spot from 10 was the image you see of Sean at the very top of the ladder doing the splash On to Scott Hall. That's the image from that that WrestleMania 10 which he did in this match and missed it and missed it Yeah, and this is before high spots were really thought you weren't savage or snooker or Tito Santana or Ricky the dragon Scene boat high spots were not something that we're very prevalent in the industry. I think also I you know This has happened before you think they booked the same match twice They wrestled the same match twice because there's if you watched them within two minutes or side by side Some of the spots are very eerily similar to WrestleMania 10 spots But if it works the only in the ending of this match the the wrap-up was to super kick off the ladder right and we're getting this Yes What I also liked about this match was doc Hendrix kind of going back and forth on his commentary Sometimes it was goat razors sometimes it was go Sean and Vince kind of called him.

He's like I'm confused man I'm I'm torn, you know, and that was fun to do let's listen to that Hayes always great on a microphone in any capacity uh Ray at one point Sean gets halfway up the ladder razor picks him up off the ladder straight into The razor's edge, which I thought was a great spot um When it comes to ladder matches and and things I like ladder matches There's a couple of things that always stand out to me. That's one edge mid air spear. Yeah, TLC's another one Just to literally picking Sean up off the ladder into the right thought maybe Sean's gonna kick He's gonna he's gonna reverse it.

Boom straight to the mat Then when I was this the first time that multiple ladders were used with the same ladder Mary first time that multiple ladders were involved in a ladder match absolutely that Vince called the backup ladder in case of the primary ladder broke of Sean hits the super kick off the top of the ladder onto razor who's trying to get up there with another great spot But Sean I don't know if he botched the ending twice Because the first time he had the ladder too far away and he went to grab the belt and he fell off But then there was a spot where uh razor goes from the power bomb using the the fists Struck down Sean reverses it throws him over the top rope. So that that makes me wonder was that was that first bot I don't think that was I think the second one the last one so they kind of improvise it a little bit I didn't say botched the last one then Sean gets up on the again And he's too far away and literally fall straight to the mat and that one you know for a fact was botched Because Sean was madder than a wet hint. Yes that that ending of that was botched And then Sean goes back puts literally spot almost spikes the ladder through the mat To climb up and get the title And again this this match is the standard bearer.

It's on the ladder match DVD Said it's the only way you can get it. I watched it on youtube earlier today Had the old wf logos on it. They didn't blur it out or anything Yeah, it was a very good match.

I picked that because I know it's Sean going to Hall of Fame. I thought it was Customary. I didn't want to go something run of the mill so I pulled this because it was kind of it's kind of off the beaten path From some of the classic matches from Sean Michaels that we remember through the years and him doing certain things Next week 92 rumble 92 rumble and if you want to play along at home watch the rumble from 92 this week We're gonna tell you the match we're gonna talk about It is the infamous stay down rick stay down rumble.

It was for the title. It was yeah the title been vacated by jack tunny Uh congresses very star-studded probably when the last big star-studded Rumbles we would see till you get to the the age of Bret Hart all stood in the rock Sean Michaels Being Sean Michaels at that point very star-studded Royal rumble this matches featured on both the Bobby Heenan DVD DVD set and as well as rick's first DVD sets the rick flair collection So if you want to know where if you don't want to watch it on YouTube if you want to watch it somewhere else That's where you're gonna find it. We'll talk about that next week Right now streetlights on it sir It is time for one of my favorite parts of the show The list this week this list has a little story behind it I thought you said you said this evening this morning and I said really I'm intrigued by this list me and my wife were sitting talking to the night about old nick at night No TV shows we watched as not even that weren't even first run But maybe second run hey hey some of us in this studio watch the first run But some of it we're like man remember that show remember that show we went back and forth for probably now Remember that show now was like you know what I'm gonna do this as a list Outstanding let's get to it number 10 one day at a time.

He said I can never watch the lighting again So I don't know if there's something went wrong on the set or he just has a different view of them now But moonlighting greatness always teased something never quite happened to later on didn't want to jump Didn't want to jump the shark. We just met on the way I You've sung more on this show Then I've ever heard you say in the 10 years. I've known 11.

I thought two two seven was pretty funny It had some moments. I used to I like this next one. Yeah, yes this next one But I saw two two seven used to be shown on BET and syndication yep, yep, and that's a bit actually.
