It is 8 o'clock on the east coast, it is 5 o'clock on the west coast, wherever you are,
do the math.
And if you're listening to this on the archive, find a clock.
That can only mean one thing.
It is time for us to open the clubhouse, it is the clubhouse with Robin Cody, welcome.
I am Rob, as always, I am joined by Cody.
Hello, and don't forget to not, after the show, we'll be joined by, after poker, we're
going to have poker on the U-Stream, after we've gone up the air.
That was a conversation we had in a pre-show, about ESPN 30 for 30, if you catch an episode
when it premieres, for some reason the world series of poker always follows.
So we're going to be followed by poker here tonight, I don't know about all that.
But welcome, it is episode 19.
Two more and this show could drink, but the people on it cannot.
Yeah.
But let's make sure we're clear on that.
It is the 16th of November in the year of our Lord 2010, only six weeks left in the
year.
That's it.
And then we go into 2011, odd 11, where something happened, I don't know, who have Olympics
or anything to talk about, somehow.
As always, we start the show with corrections, man, and you have a big one last all my
fans at the, you know, middle Tennessee State University, I had you guys on the road,
I hope you all didn't fly in the DFW and during lock of the week last week you said that
North Texas had their final home game this week.
That's actually this week.
If you showed up to that stadium, you didn't see much, as North Texas was actually on
the road at middle Tennessee State, well, actually, I'll be honest with you guys, I got
a ticket.
I mean, I got a, how do you say it, a, under the table deal from a North Texas along which
trying to sell some tickets out there, sorry, wrong week.
Oh, that's going to be that kind of thing.
They won.
Yeah, they did with it.
They won.
They did win.
They did win.
So congratulations, main green.
Do you believe in green?
I do not.
Okay.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I'm going to show off with bats.
Let's get you out of this, please.
It's a mistake.
It wasn't a mistake.
So sorry if you bought plane tickets and flew in here from middle.
Sorry.
For those of you checking on such things, Florida choked it.
Ohio State, when does it end up winning that game by eight?
After being down five at the end.
There's stuff's been on since five o'clock this morning.
And the globe to bring you the constant variety of sport.
The Triller victory and the agony of defeat.
Couple, couple, couple.
The human drama of athletic competition.
We always start with sports.
And we always start with NFL football.
Well, something interesting came down last night.
And it was made official today.
What was it official today?
I thought it was actually with a announce last night.
But it was official today.
I've actually got a breakdown on that.
Donovan McNabb, who's had his own issues
with the Washington Redskins this year.
Five-year extension, 79.8 million.
That's what it said.
40 of it guaranteed.
Well, I'm more, Chris Mortensen, if you
follow our Facebook page I posted this earlier today.
Chris Mortensen said there's a lot of smoking mirrors in this thing.
And you've apparently got a breakdown.
So I'm going to defer to you on that.
2010, $3.5 million signing bonus, $250,000 more
if active in eight games.
At eight games next year?
This is 2000, the rest of the year.
OK, that's this year.
They don't have eight games left, I thought.
I guess that was something to do this year.
Oh, this is a league, this is a league union source.
2011, 10 million option bonus, $2.5 million salary, $6,750,000
of active in 16 games, $2,250,000 more to work out,
and then $2 million in possible playoff incentives.
Not this year.
That's 2011.
Let's go say 2012, which I don't think
he'll be in the league.
$12.75 million, $750,000 of active in all 16 games.
Same on the incentive bonuses in the workout.
Really, the incentives in the workouts about the same,
but in 2013, if 2013, it's a $13 million salary, 1.5 million
if he plays in 16 games.
Isn't he going to be like 50?
In 2014, if he's playing, it's 13.75.
God, I'm buying it's a lot of money.
I can even say it.
$3.75 million with a $3 million active 16 game salary,
and then it goes down to $3.55 million,
and then $2.25.
I'd hate to have to take a pick cut to $3.75 million.
But it's a weird contract.
It's a typical Daniel Snyder deal.
Is he trying to be Steinbrenner?
Is that what's going on?
I don't know what he's doing, but he's overpaid for the guy.
I've never been a fan of McNabb when he played in Philly.
I didn't mind him in Philly, I wasn't going to fill it out.
Whether without Tio, I don't like him.
I think he's a quitter.
I think he'll quit on you.
Wow.
And I think we've seen that in Super Bowl.
I think we've seen that in playoffs.
He gets tired, he'll mail it in.
So you make use of Jesus not built for the long game?
Well, maybe.
OK, I could see that, but then you
haven't a deal that if he gets hurt this year,
have he has a debilitating injury?
This year, this season, $25 million.
I'm done, I walk.
I'm like, oh, ow.
I break my toe, walk the locker room, week 16.
Well, I don't think that's debilitating.
Oh, but $25 million.
Well, this little deal here coming out of local.
Yeah, you reported this to me early, radio show,
here locally, not going to say the name of the person
or the affiliation of team or the radio station
or the host therein.
Players were told at a union meeting
as late as last week start saving money.
They've been saying that's just a summertime, though, haven't they?
But they are making that point clearer and clear.
Start saving your money, millionaires.
Start saving your dues.
Yeah.
Because I think it's pretty well on the horizon.
We are not going to have football in 2011.
We will, it just won't be NFL.
Yeah.
You said, I don't know.
And there's a question I put underneath this.
I personally don't think this will happen,
but I wanted to pose the question anyway.
What about the possibility of scab?
See, I was wondering that.
But I think this is a different time than it was.
You've filled in a field, Europe.
Yeah.
You have no minors.
Then you're going to have to maybe bring guys in from the arena
league.
That could be a popular building.
Well, you've got that UFL thing to fill.
Yeah, there's some guys.
I don't think that.
I don't think people let you know in that deal.
Yeah, I think if they don't have the real show out there,
they shut it down.
Hopefully not.
Hopefully not.
Hopefully not.
I like you and I'll be watching college.
Yeah, I mean, you and I have put this there before.
See, all it does is push your college games to a Monday
not prime time.
And you play on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
There's enough schools.
Yeah, no kids.
There's not going to be a lack of coverage.
But you never know.
Maybe they'll work it out.
Maybe not.
But let me take some NFL players.
There's not a lot of two or three million dollar
of your jobs just out there floating around.
And let me pose this to you again, because it's been probably
three weeks since I asked you this question.
If you're the NCAA, do you offer these seniors
another year of eligibility?
I don't see how you don't.
And me and you've talked about this several times before.
I think it's going to keep some cats in college.
I think you've got some junior players that are probably
on the bubble.
Yep.
I know one that needs to run for the pros.
But if the pros aren't there, what's he going to do?
But there's some, I think there's some guys that are kind
of there's some juniors.
This is not a strong junior class, and I'll be honest with you.
This is not going to be a strong NFL draft to begin with.
There's not that franchise change of pace guy like we
had last year.
That guy does not exist.
So with that being said, let's fire up the boat.
I'm on the boat.
We're going NFL Island to kind of break down.
And we're going to the week 10, where you're by week
teams, again, we're Green Bay Oakland, New Orleans,
and the San Diego Super.
Now are we done with the buy?
I believe we are done.
We will know here in a momentarily.
You have the information started off Thursday night.
And a very competitive game.
And we both called that.
We said, that's going to be a great game to watch.
And it came down literally to the last flight.
Baltimore at Atlanta, 26, Falcons, 26, Ravens, 21,
Flacco, 22 for 34, 2, 15, 3 TDs.
Matt Ryan, who I think you've got to start putting Matt
Ryan in that top 5, top 10 quarterback in the NFL.
Well, he's taking a bad franchise and made that mid.
That's a very relevant again.
Ryan, 35 for 23, 16, 3 TDs.
One thing I know about Baltimore, that shutdown defense
is getting old.
Yeah, they, the Falcons marched 80 yards in six plays.
And made it look pretty effortly.
Hey, once Buffalo Bills, congratulations.
Welcome to the table.
Table of winners.
That's right.
Drinking from the winners cup.
As you defeat the Lions, who lost their 25th road game
in a row.
So mighty.
Sean Hill, though, goods 29 for 50.
29 for 50.
Sean Hill resurfaces, 323 yards on touchdown.
Hey, Fritz Patrick.
This was kind of one of these group efforts.
He only threw 12 for 24, 146 and 1 TD.
Wow.
And as we move on, Minnesota.
And they ain't getting no better.
But children still has a job.
Yeah.
Everybody said he's getting fired in my day of mortals.
I was with this man from 12 noon to 6.30.
He would, I watched a lot of football.
And I told him I said, if they choke this thing,
there's no way he has a job Monday.
He was wrong.
I was wrong.
I mean, far.
I don't think you were a load in that boat either.
Farv, 18 for 31, 171 TD.
Peterson really.
17 carries, 51 yards, no touchdowns.
Here's Cutler, 22 for 35, 237, and 3 TDs.
What happens?
And probably the funnest game of the day
is the New York football Jets
traveled to Cleveland, Browns.
We watched this.
Look at that.
This thing was a minute 15 from going to a tie.
Yep.
Of course.
I thought it was going to end up that way.
Manches hit Santonial Homes, and he
takes one of the house about 40 yards out.
20 Sanchez was 27 for 44, 292 TDs.
On the other hand, hey, Colt McCoy.
I've been impressed.
It's like I've said, the only thing I didn't like
about that kid was the colors of him.
Yeah, I've been impressed with this player.
18 for 31, 205, 1 TD.
The main story of this guy, this guy, Hills.
That is a manchild.
He reminds me of a little All-Stot.
You know what?
That's a great play for Tampa Bay.
That's a analogy.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, 19 carries.
Just a cornbread, just big old boy likes to run.
Just run over people.
82 yards, 1 TD.
Good day.
That's that Jets team.
They're finding ways to win every week.
And sometimes that's all I'll take.
Second week in a row and overtime.
And the final, well, that was score was 23, 20.
Cincinnati at Indy.
Very sloppy game.
Very sloppy game.
Carlson Palmer, 31 for 42, 292, 2 TDs.
But he still had the two picks.
And that was the difference in the game.
And then Manning on the other side of the ball,
20 for 36, 185, and 0 touchdown.
It's just a penalty.
Anybody in the league with more poise than Peyton?
Yeah, Manning.
I just, he amazes me to watch.
Maybe Brady.
But they face each other this week.
But Brady, you'll see just get kind of chippy.
Exactly.
Peyton, just look at you and go, look,
I'm about to run clean over you with this ball.
So it's my money.
This is one of the bullet points.
Miami, despite some quarterback low.
Despite some quarterback woes, I was beginning.
Who was going to, it was greasy going to come out
of the booth and suit up.
I believe the call was put into marino.
Yeah, I mean, I'm even selling ice to toner gloves somewhere.
Miami wins 29, 7, 2, 1 at home.
Over, lost our first road game last week.
We won our first home game.
Over a Tennessee team that I think
starting to gas for air.
So it's a cup.
I think they've run out of steam there.
Vince Young, listen to this.
9 for 18, 92 yards in a touchdown.
Johnson, 17 carries 117 in a touchdown.
So they were very run-oriented.
Hinty, though, great day for Hinty.
19 for 28, 240, 1 TD.
The sad story out of this game is,
I think Chad Pinnington's called it a career.
Oh, he's not playing Thursday night.
No, he's, no, he doesn't.
He thinks he kind of started.
He's been scratched for the season.
So yeah, I think he's done another Florida team.
Carolina at Tampa.
1 in 8, Carolina.
Clawson, 16 for 29 and 191.
Freeman, this kid's done nothing but one ball games.
Yep.
But let me see something to the Carolina fan.
Be patient.
Yeah, gotta rebuild that patient.
Yeah, you know, Freeman, on top of that, 1824, 241, 2 TDs.
We're gonna have a guy shout out real quick.
Blunt.
19.
Garret Blunt.
19 carries 91 yards, 1 TD.
If he doesn't, if he does not pull the stunt,
he did against Oregon last year.
On primetime Thursday night, that kid's a first round pick.
Yep.
And possibly he hides with this guy.
I mean, he was a good ball player.
Tampa's gonna end up stealing him, I think.
In a wild game that ended on a hill marry,
tipped in the end zone,
as Houston goes to Jacksonville and loses.
That would be your dark question, sir.
Now, Houston's all of a sudden where they can't
get out of their way.
Shows.
Shows the paperback, went out of their way.
Shob, horrible.
22 for 32, 314, 2 TDs, 2 picks, and 2 football balls.
Took a lot of heat about saying,
Shob may be a little overrated for the season.
Shob accounted for four turnovers.
Yeah, I'm telling you.
But on the other hand, another great story,
Gerard, 24 for 31, 342, and 2 TDs.
Sorry, are we saying the Dallas game wasn't a fluke?
I'm saying they look like a pretty good team.
Another wild one where now stories are coming out
that Kansas City believes a score was ran up is we walk.
Kansas City didn't have a chance to get settled on the bench
and that game was 28 to see.
I remember it was kind of like the game last night.
We'll talk about here in a minute.
Every time you turned your hand away,
there was another touchdown.
And their coach refused to shake.
And Josh retainer, and then apologized late yesterday.
Kansas City goes into, I'm going to call it Malha.
20 and get Vesco Field at Malha Stadium.
It's all smoked.
49, 29.
Castle.
And that wasn't even as close as that score tells you.
But what's funny is Castle 3, listen to this stat.
33 for 53, 469, and four touchdowns.
Had you threw for 469?
Had you a great fantasy day out of hand.
No kid.
Yeah, Orton 22 for 34, 296, and 40s.
And Marino made an appearance.
22 carries 106.
They've been kind of waiting for him to get off.
I'm skipping that one, saving it for last.
Your dark core, Seattle goes to Arizona and gets a win.
Woo-hoo.
I think they end up winning that division.
If St. Louis doesn't, they do.
Hasselback 22 for 34, 333 yards in 1 TD, Anderson.
He's Anderson, 24 for 23 for 45 and 32.
And another fun game, St. Louis loses on the road
to the San Francisco 49ers, 23-1.
We watched the chunk of that game.
And Radford just looked out of place for a red thread.
So 30 for 42, 275 yards on touchdown, zero turnovers.
You had a pass interference call late in the fourth quarter
on San Francisco that set up the game winning field goal.
He just looked a little out of story.
Yeah, he did have a pretty impressive drive to tie the game.
He went 89 yards on 10 plays to get on the tight.
The kid, I've got you right now.
He's still your rookie of the year.
But Smith was a played awesome 17 for 28, 356 in a touchdown.
Two words in that game too.
Steven Jackson.
Yeah.
He had a nice day too.
Oh yeah, there were some guys at Simulow.
Jackson, 20 carries for 81 yards in a touchdown.
But he did a lot of receiving as well.
The game that started out being a game of the week turned into a stinker fastest Pittsburgh.
I don't know if they could come in the locker room or they bought the primetime high for
what as they get annihilated.
That score is the seeding as New England wins 39, 26, Brady, 30 for 43, 350 and 3 TDs.
Well the Roth was burger, 30 for 49, 387 and 3 TDs.
Pittsburgh just can't, if there was a chance to have a turnover, they had it.
Yeah.
The Michael Vick show.
You could call it that.
59 to 28 over Washington.
Vick.
It rained in that second half like in Simulow.
That was November football last night.
Vick, 20 for 28, 333 yards in four touchdowns.
You know, I've talked to multiple people today who said he won the fantasy big.
Yeah.
He had a great day in McNabb.
McNabb didn't have bad numbers.
17 for 31, 295 in two TDs.
I'm going to go back to one.
What's one thing this weekend you didn't think would happen?
What you're about to talk about?
Yeah.
I mean the Dallas Cowboys.
They were a two touchdown underdog.
For those of you that don't pay attention to betting lines, Dallas was a two touchdown
underdog going into the metallands on Sunday afternoon.
A game that took way too long because of a power outage.
Yeah, but 3320, Dallas goes on the road.
It upsets the at that time was being called the best team in the league.
Kit and I 13 for 22, 327, 3 TDs.
Well, Eli looked like he could get in his own way.
Manning the quarterbacks very similar.
Manning 33, 38, 373, 2 TDs.
We'll stop right here.
I'll tell you why this game went the way it did.
Dallas finally was able to get Felix Jones running the ball.
Yeah.
At all year long, he was tackled behind the line of scrimmage.
They finally got him hitting holes and getting positive yardage.
And Des Bryant, welcome to the league and welcome to the league.
Now here's Des.
Stay healthy.
You've done this before and every time I turn around, when we were at Oki State or you
always end up kind of banged up, you got to stay healthy.
And let's keep the reactions to a minimum here, kids.
This is not the greatest thing that's going to happen to your team.
It's one game.
You still have two victories all year.
I'll like Garrett.
Danny Pacquiao has more wins in Cowboys stadium than the Cowboys do this year.
I like Garrett.
I think Garrett's great.
I just think I hope he's not fake intense.
I think some of these coaches get in these things and they're kind of, they might be kind
of...
Well, he got a little parcellsy today.
Yeah.
Press conference.
We're keeping everything in the game.
So don't get your bitches, bitches.
How many more you see?
From this point forward.
From this point forward.
I said, even before the giant scan, there were three winnable games.
This week, it's Detroit, Arizona, and the Redskins.
Those are the only three games I can see them winning the rest of the year.
Well, although you've got one that I don't.
I think, I'll be honest, it just depends on how this thing looks Sunday.
To me, New Orleans has not played very good football this year.
They've beaten Carolina twice.
They just Thanksgiving Day right up the road.
Two of their wins is Carolina twice.
The only thing that excites, to me, what the Thanksgiving Day when it comes to the Cowboys
is, Salvation Army.
That's true.
You get a big Keith Urban halftime.
Don't do anything here.
Is that his plan this year?
Oh, okay.
We're going to go to Australia.
And with that being said, your week 11, we're almost done with this bit.
Week 11, dinner plate here starts Thursday, Sun Live Stadium, Miami, Florida, as the
Chicago Bears.
Chicago Bears.
At Miami Dolphins.
Shelby Stadium.
I don't care what they call it now, it's always Shelby Stadium.
And Buffalo, it's Cincinnati, hey, you've lost five in a row, Dolphins.
That could be a boring game, right?
You better win.
You better win this one, or you're going to screw around and get your coach fired, it's
going to happen.
Detroit at Dallas.
I have Dallas winning that game.
That's what I said.
There's been people in a field think 9 and 7 and NFC get you to play off this year.
They're not getting going 9 and 7.
I've got three winnable games.
That's 5 and 10.
5 and 11.
Washington.
I don't know how to do that.
At Tennessee.
We'll see who that one could get boring, do you?
Arizona at Kansas City, Kansas City looking to bounce back from a just a shellacchi against
the dark horse.
Yeah.
By the way, Green, Brett Farf playing against his old team again.
Yay.
Green Bay at Minnesota.
Now the newly named Mall of the America field.
Houston.
Really?
And I'll call the Mall of the Houston, if the New York Jets, Houston needs this win.
Bad.
Oakland at Pittsburgh.
Terry Bradshaw.
Not starting you to hint.
Terry Bradshaw.
Oakland Pittsburgh.
This game has some relevance.
When's last time Oakland went into a game with a winning record against Pittsburgh?
1830.
That had been the immaculate reception.
When this song was played a lot, they were covered wagons and balls.
Baltimore, Carolina, Carolina, you probably get schooled that day.
Cleveland at Jacksonville, which looks to be like that might be a decent two little teams
that might be on the rise.
Tampa at San Francisco, San Francisco is one three in a row.
Let's go bucks.
Seattle at New Orleans.
We'll see.
By dark horse.
New Orleans finally playing a little bit of a team that may give them a pushback.
Atlanta at St. Louis.
Atlanta played great defense against Flacco the other night.
I don't know.
St. Louis has some issues on defense.
In the New England, used to be the biggest game of the year.
I just don't think Indy's that good this year.
I just, I'm not convinced by either one of those teams.
And Sunday night on NBC, the Giants at Philadelphia, another CES match up in prime time.
They started the AFCs beginning of the year.
Now it's the AFCs.
It's gonna weird.
Oh, seeing if it can do it twice, I don't think you're gonna see New York's defense
ran on two games in a row like Dallas did.
And then Monday night, a team that usually gets hot around this time of year makes the end
of the season surge.
The Denver Broncos at the San Diego Super Chargers at the Jack Murphy Stadium.
Number 15, gonna play a little bit again.
Got his first passing touchdown, so I don't know.
I think, I think Denver still thinks they can make a run is the problem there.
And that folks is NFL Island for a few more weeks than the island closed and is an open
till July.
Oh, unless we said the same thing about baseball.
So baseball keeps coming back to on time.
I can't believe we're in the week 11 of the National Football League.
That's why I love the NFL because every week counts.
It's not like, hey, and also you get that you're just coming off a baseball season and baseball
season is so long.
I equate this to something Paul Heyman said during the Manny Pacquiao fight on Saturday
night.
He said, I've been watching MMA for so long that I'm spoiled by five minute rounds.
These three minute rounds are going so fast.
That's how it is with baseball.
Yeah, football.
Because football season is so short compared to everything else about a time it comes around
and you're like, hey, wait a minute.
Are we done?
Is this it?
We finish up NFL football so we have to go to the other side of that coin as we head
to the college ranks.
And I'm going to start you this week with a team that took my boys to the blue shed.
I got to give respect.
South Carolina.
They did.
They get to be the opening fights on Saturday.
They did it.
We are going to go live across the table to Cody Hawkins for your cam Newton update.
You said that.
I did.
Yeah, that's a scam.
New update.
Scam Newton.
Done it.
Done it.
Done it.
Oh my.
Here we go.
I just, I think this is the week it happens.
They're on the bike.
They're on the bike.
I think you're going to give a little information to be.
Here's a situation now with it.
Here's with this case stands.
It's not admitting if something happened.
His dad's all but admitted something did happen.
I think now it's sorting out who was involved and who wasn't.
What the possible ramifications also ran with yeah.
I'll tell you this.
A reporter for it.
Under the Birmingham news says cam Newton in his opinion has a 50 50 chance of playing
against Alabama.
Well, I just love how Friday it was we're not going to say that there was never a doubt.
He wasn't going to say it was Auburn trying to I think Auburn's loving this.
I think they're trying to make a little headlines everybody's watching.
I will tell you this.
Chizek will is will continue a trend which stoops, Meyer and Miles as being coaches at
one national titles in year two.
So I will say that there's a shot there.
Yeah.
I think we'll get to that later, not that bit.
But then there was another and I'll throw this guy's name out here because we have a good
friend of the same last name Cecil Hart from the Tuscaloosa news says if that's close
to better.
Oh, okay.
If these allegations are true and people are pointing that they are, it will set Auburn
back for decades.
He said just when you get out of the woods and then you get down back here.
He said the ramifications on this could be so huge.
Set them back decades similar to SMU.
Wow.
Can't wait for that 30 for 30 coming up is what they're saying.
You know, it took it takes it takes that much time.
It took oh you that time.
It took Miami.
That much time.
Think of all the coaches Bama did when they were they weren't what they were now.
I think this comes out this week.
I just they've got to do something the SEC has told them understand we're giving you
the option of which we're not going to tell you if you can play them or not.
Yeah, that's weird.
For the NCAA to make so I probably use better judgment and I'll be honest with you.
If I'm an Auburn fan, I hold my breath for about five years if they win the national title.
I don't buy a shirt.
I don't buy DVD.
I don't buy a coffee cup none of that.
I set back and I hold my breath for about five years.
You won't this you can't enjoy it.
What concerns me about this deal is there are three letters that have come into play F B and
that the the guy that supposedly the big crooked all this that reported it.
He was interviewed by the FBI today under a polygraph and supposedly he he cooperated
just fine.
He's fully cooperated.
He's back out on the street again.
I think this thing comes down this week.
Well, hopefully my next week we'll have more information on this, but I mean you're getting
reporters now saying we're probably a little bit closer to university than of course Rob
or myself or anybody else that's on these airwaves or on the radio.
You start getting fairly sizable reporters involved in stuff.
They kind of know a little bit of the average common man.
Well, from there we go to our rankings for the week.
I start this week.
Remember actually start we start from the bottom with our number 11.
The BCS poll BCS has that number 11 currently the University of Alabama.
Who do you have?
I had Nebraska.
Did you?
Yeah, you don't go into Kansas and that was a game.
Kansas kind of hung around and that thing a little too long for me.
I just don't think that good.
My number 11, you go live to still water Oklahoma.
You dropped them.
I dropped them this week.
It's like I said I'm getting off the Texas dog pile.
Yeah.
That team's so bad right now.
I'm going to tell you something.
I thought Texas, I thought that game would be worse.
I picked Texas because it was but in reality I thought you know Oklahoma State could really
open it up and run on what they really wanted to and I never saw that.
That's why I dropped it this week.
Number 10, the BCS has Oklahoma State.
I had Michigan State.
Well, that's a team that's just not getting much respect as a one loss.
If you really want to start getting your one losses, Michigan State's really not getting
a lot of respect.
To me because I'm still not sold my number 10 this week is Stanford.
Yeah.
I dropped them quite a bit this week.
I was not impressed with luck in the boys.
This week number nine, the BCS currently has the Ohio State Buckeye and I had Oklahoma
State Cowboys.
I think that black man, I think I don't know if you can cover him.
He's going to be this year's, if there is a draft, he's this year's Desbire.
They seem to get these phenomenal, phenomenal, but wide receivers up there in this Weed
and Kid.
I think he's good.
He's 28 years old.
He's mine.
He's Chris Winky.
I'm going to say who is the Chris Winky.
Yeah.
But I mean, we'll see.
I haven't seen anybody as far except Nebraska challenged him on a defensive standpoint.
Never enough.
I've been up.
Nebraska is my number 19.
Yep.
I just, they're, they're going to finish strong and they're going to try to win that
North.
I just need to see a little bit more from them.
Number eight this week, the BCS has Nebraska, huh?
I have the Ohio State Buckeyes.
I'm just not sold and I have them higher, but I'm still not completely sold.
There's still a top 10 team, Terrell Pryor's still getting it done.
My number eight this week is the University of Alabama.
If they can get their heads right with ball, they've got one game to do it in.
Here we go.
Georgia State.
Anything for you?
Georgia State.
That's the Alabama place.
I'm sorry.
Georgia State.
I got none.
Okay.
Okay.
Number seven.
Okay.
Number seven.
The BCS has Wisconsin in.
I also have Wisconsin, but I'll tell you what.
That's a Goon coach.
That's a Goon.
That was my number seven.
It's actually Ohio State.
Yeah.
He's a Goon.
I've actually got Wisconsin a little bit higher.
Yeah.
He's a Goon.
Yeah.
He's a Goon.
Number six.
This is where the BCS has Stanford.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A little generous.
I have Boise State at six.
Wow.
You dropped them like a stone, isn't it?
You know, I just, that's that schedule, just.
It's hard for me to overlook the sketch BCS chaos.
Yeah.
It's hard for me to overlook the schedule.
My number six is Wisconsin.
You beat somebody 83 to 20.
I got to keep.
That's true.
I mean, it's LSU beat UL Monroe, 51 to nothing, so.
Number five.
LSU is what the BCS has.
I had Stanford.
I've got LSU at five.
I like this Stanford football team.
They're the only team I saw hang with Oregon.
And they did.
They did well up until Saturday night.
Till that point.
Yeah.
So there's another team.
Till that point, Saturday night, that was the only team
that I saw actually actually give the dog a little bit
of a fight.
Number four in the BCS rankings.
Your Boise State Mustangs.
I had LSU.
I like LSU.
I'm going to tell you if, if, and I don't know if this can happen.
But if Alabama beats Auburn,
an Auburn goes in there and lays an egg against South Carolina,
which is done.
It's done deal.
I think LSU could back in a national title game.
I think a one loss LSU could jump and undefeated TCU
in Boise State hands down.
We have to see.
My number four is Boise State.
I just, I, man, a lot of people do.
A lot of people do.
And I'll be honest with you.
My last three are mirrored of the poll.
Mine or not.
OK.
Number three.
The BCS rankings has Texas Christian University.
I also had TCU, let me tell you something.
If you're going to win a national title,
and I'll go ahead and, if you're going to have to play a tight game,
you're going to have to see if your guys can respond to adversity
in a tightball game.
Oh, you put them in 2000 Florida played some the year
that they won the national title.
Bama beats Tennessee by a blocked extra point as regulation runs out.
Sometimes you got to have your guys battle tested.
I thought it was good for TCU.
And I thought it was good for Oregon to kind of play a tight game
and see how your team responds.
My number three was the University of Oregon.
They just, they did, they lost a little bit of faith with me.
They had a team jump up and bite them.
At number two, I had Auburn.
Number two, also the BCS has Auburn.
My number two is TCU.
Auburn struggled too much for me with one of the worst teams
in the SEC.
George is not that good.
And they just about pulled that off.
But again, Auburn, I'm going to give you
the shot this week.
I have already got to buy you better get ready.
I have Oregon because I think Alabama's got one in them.
Yeah, and this will be it.
I agree with what half the team I've heard in the country.
Number one, I don't think can play in that game.
And second of all, I just think Alabama can stop a guy
who runs a half back draw of the middle every stinking play.
Yeah, but the thing is, even if Auburn loses that game,
they still go to the title game.
But still are not on the national title.
So really, they win the tie break out with LSU
because they beat him.
Really, it's going to get kind of muddy here at the end.
And then Oregon still has a civil war.
You never know.
That would be a decent game.
You know, Oregon stays one of them chippy teams.
And we're getting down to, we're getting down nitty-gritty.
I mean, we've got some games this week
that can determine some titles.
And where people are going to be and what they're going to do.
And I can tell you, one team is not already take care of it.
And that's what I'm going to love it, Gators.
Who showed up this week?
First of all, your headlining.
Who showed up team?
Congratulations, the Notre Dame University.
Yeah, Notre Dame, that shocked me.
A 28 to 3 win over number 15 Utah.
Utah?
See ya.
Hardly knew ya.
Barely knew ya.
Hardly knew ya.
Is Tommy Rees the answer?
13 or 20 for 129 yards and three touchdowns?
Here's the deal.
You can have all you want to.
But if you can't recruit and build around him,
you'll be in the same spot you're in.
Notre Dame needs one more win, and they're ball eligible.
I'll tell you what, two for ten on third down.
They'd still won that game.
They've got to beat Army and or USC.
They're not going to beat USC.
I promise you that.
Blocked punt return for a touchdown.
It's all that in that game.
Also, who showed up this week.
Congratulations to your University of Oklahoma.
Yeah, I was nervous.
I was nervous about this.
You know, Tech, was you excited about their defense?
And I'll be honest with you, man.
This thing was over before it started.
45 to 7.
And remember, this is a Tech team who beat Mizzou last week,
who beat Oklahoma the way out that 412 just did.
So it's San.
Blangery, 22 of 29 for 317 yards and five touchdowns.
He was, he was, he looked good.
Did you know this Tech used four different quarterbacks?
Four different quarterbacks.
They went forward on fourth down four times
and got none of them.
75 plays.
562 yards of offense.
Yeah, just not.
Give up one sack.
Your own line helped nicely.
Tech's just not a good football team.
Defensively, they're horrible.
And you had three running backs with over 60 yards.
Yeah, so you got to get Weber State going on a Tech.
You beat Weber.
Weaver, you beat Weber State in Lubbock Saturday.
You go to ball game, if not, you're at the house.
Also, congratulations, Texas A&M University.
Oh, they fought back.
A 42-31 over Baylor.
What a crazy.
Did you watch it?
Is this a crazy?
I was trying to keep an eye on this.
And the Baylor pre-fighted Baylor jumped out.
Huge 17 to nothing there for a second.
A&M had 21 and that's her points.
That's Baylor, you know?
Baylor stopped scoring in the second quarter.
They didn't score anything at all.
Baylor to me is still suspect defensively.
But A&M, if anybody's listening,
I got a little piece of advice for you.
You have to work on keeping the other team's offense off the field.
You gave up 503 yards, 12 of 21 on third down,
and almost 300 yards rushing alone.
You gotta get that under control.
They also need to balance their offense.
They had 137 yards on the ground of one guy.
The rest of their running, the rest of their running backs.
12 yards come back.
Well, we'll see what they're gonna do this week
when Nebraska comes to Kyle Field.
If Nebraska beats them A&M seasons over,
they have nothing to play for except for beating Texas.
They're already bull eligible by that point.
Also, good luck.
Also 11 penalties for 106 yards.
Yeah, A&M is one of the biggest Jekyll and Hyde teams.
But Baylor, hey, by the way, Baylor has nothing to play for
their season finale Saturday.
You're bull eligible.
Yeah, great season.
That's one thing we said at the bowl show.
Congratulations, Baylor.
Baylor, you got in, you got seven wins.
I don't think you're gonna get eight,
but you're in, chill, relax, have fun,
and go hit the recruiting trail,
because the big 12 or whatever the heck
is gonna be called next year,
they need Baylor to be consistently good
and compete to have that team.
We don't need you to go back down to Southern Miss,
Vandy, North Texas top levels.
We need you to stay competitive.
And they let off this segment.
The University of South Carolina 36-14 win over number 24 Florida,
which probably doesn't exist.
I did not see this coming.
Congratulations, Steve Spurrier.
He finally did it.
He finally did it.
But we said this was good a year,
if he was doing that division.
This was the year that these are all his kids.
Little Advice Ball Coach, walk.
Florida scores on the opening kickoff,
then doesn't score again till midway
through the fourth quarter.
They completely contained us.
Latamore, 40 rushes for 212 yards and three touchdowns.
Would you put this kid in the talk here in about a month?
Latamore, New York, if Adrian Peterson
was not winner-fresh, but nobody else will.
I mean, Florida couldn't stop him.
We're Garcia.
Don't put him in.
He lost.
Florida's top performer-wise.
Probably dense.
Nope.
Chris Rainey, four catches for 32 yards.
And I debate.
And I debate if he should even be on that football team.
You're not going to hear me.
So you got, hey, but you know what?
Florida can still finish 8-4 and go to respect football.
A ball game.
This is a rebuilding thing.
I'll tell you who looks worried.
I'll tell you, Florida does me does not look bad at all.
They're young.
Texas is bad.
Florida's a one-year fix.
Texas is not a one-year fix.
I'm stopping the dog pile on that.
They put 395 yards of total offense versus a very
staunt Florida DB.
Yeah, that's, yeah.
You have a lot of guys.
What?
Their balance on offense?
2-39 on the ground.
2-12 was Latamore and Garcia had the rest of them.
If this couldn't stop you, where'd those two go?
If this was in Columbia, I would have not have been shocked
by the outcome.
But him and his small, that kind of shocked me.
That took me back.
And they had 156 yards passing.
Yeah.
They forced Florida on two for five.
Florida went for a four on fourth down five times.
They forced that.
And only three penalties for 20 yards.
They played excellent football.
And congratulations against South Carolina.
Yeah.
You'll never hear me not getting in front of them.
I just don't know if Spurrier can get it going.
You got one Latamore?
One more.
Who showed up?
University of Alabama.
30-10 over numbers.
Mississippi State was number 17.
Shook it off.
Did not give up a touchdown until 8-12 left in the fourth quarter.
Yeah.
McAroy averaged over 20 yards for completion.
They held Mississippi State to 299 yards total offense.
Five sacks for 26 yards lost.
And but Ingram's numbers are plummety.
Yeah.
18, I don't know what happened to that gal of a sudden.
18 rushes for 53 yards.
He averaged under three yards of rush, sir.
That was a strange.
He went from hot to trot to where it was just blah.
It's like I've won a lot of sudden.
What else do I need to do?
Yeah.
Maybe he's like, maybe I'm just saving it up for next year
because there's not going to be an NFL in the way.
I got one here for you.
Okay.
I'm happy that it matters, but they're eligible.
Arkansas.
Number 15 Arkansas 58-21 over UTEP.
A crazy game.
Up you saw this.
I did not.
This game got weird.
UTEP was actually leading.
You know, it was 21-14 in the first quarter.
Wow.
UTEP didn't score a game, but Ryan Mallet
breaks the touchdown mark all time in Arkansas.
Congratulations, Ryan Mallet.
So who didn't show up this week?
We go to Orlando.
Number 25, the University of Central Florida.
It a 31-21 loss to Southern Mississippi.
Southern Mass.
But listen to this.
335 yards total offense.
18 first downs.
The whole game.
Go to Niggle Obatja.
8-15 on third down.
They gave up 11 for 16.
Yeah.
You see F's just been a team that they're here.
They're here.
They're all over the map this year.
But you know what?
There was good work by Jeff Godfrey,
their quarterback 16-25 for 190 yards, two touchdowns,
but two picks.
And their leading rusher was Ronnie Weaver 12 carries for 112 yards.
George O'Leary needs to get that back under control down there.
Didn't he have a cow?
Said the Chicago Fire.
Or his wife's cow.
Yeah.
Number 13 Iowa.
26-21-17 loss to.
Now this is a team I expected a little bit more from,
especially with a senior quarterback,
seniors on defense.
Iowa, man.
Ricky Stanzi, a quarterback, had a decent day.
20-41 for 270, two touchdowns and a pick.
You're going to start here.
But some rumblings down over there again.
They had less first downs than South Central Florida.
And they only had 17.
Hey, in this Northwestern teams,
not a bad football team.
Yeah, they're on, they're, they're, they're, they're,
they're going to chip yard.
And he's a guy that had coach there is a guy that's on the move.
A lot of schools like him.
You want to hear South that'll kill you?
If you're a football team?
Third down.
Two for 14.
Yeah.
Horrible.
But they were three for four when they went four on fourth.
Yeah.
But, and they punted seven times.
Huh.
You can't do that.
No?
My last team, I did not show up this week.
Number 18, the University of Arizona.
And a 24-21 loss to the University of Southern California.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
I've been after putting up 404 yards of total offense.
Hey, Mike.
Come home, bro.
Come on back to Norman.
No fourth down attack.
He's just never for some reason.
He's never been able to make it work there.
I mean, they were a team that was preseason top 10.
They're seven and three.
They're four and three in the pack 10.
USC was two for three on fourth down.
But there's no efficiency.
Nick Foles.
32 of 48 for 353 yards and three touchdowns at a loss.
Yeah.
I got one.
I got one here for you.
I'll give you just two more points here.
I'm sorry.
They were down two touchdowns at one point.
I saw that.
Yeah.
You know, all five of their rushers, if you combine them
and add 10, that'll be half of Mark Tyler.
And total rushing was 205 to 51.
Wow.
I got one here for you.
Penn State.
I thought about putting that one on here.
But I kind of held off.
Penn State up 14 to nothing.
Drop of a shoe.
They give up 38 unanswered points.
Funny thing about that game.
Paterno, all time in the horseshoe is one in seven.
He just got his four.
He cheered those two touchdown passes.
First time Penn State had one passing touchdown in the horseshoe, all time.
Wow.
They have dominated Penn State in the shoe.
So would that shock me, Penn State came out there 14 to nothing?
Oh, here we go.
The SPN, can I take something?
That wasn't your game of the day.
Game day had no business.
Yeah, I thought that was a weird selection.
They had no business.
They were carrying that Florida South Carolina.
They had no business in Columbus South.
I don't know if they do that every year for Herb Street.
So he can go see old coaches on a wide.
I thought that was a strange selection.
Weird.
Weird.
Weird.
Weird.
Well, I said we're going to do a little microscope
before we get to this next piece.
Take it away, sir.
Yeah.
Real quick.
How do you feel about football games at baseball stadiums?
They're...
I don't like them.
You and I have talked about this before.
Yes.
I hate it when they do it in Oakland.
I hate it when they do it in Miami.
Well, college football.
We got Northwestern and Illinois at Riggly.
Saturday.
That's weird.
And you've got Notre Dame versus Army at the new Yankee Stadium.
Well, they've got a ball game, too, don't they?
I'm sorry for the minute.
Oh.
Oh, yeah.
This year, too.
I don't know how I feel about that.
Riggly's weird.
Yankee Stadium looks ridiculous with that football lineup.
Yeah, we believe Yankee Stadium.
Yeah, we believe that.
We see your conferences playing that ball.
Yeah.
But Northwestern, Illinois, two schools that kind of have a...
That's pretty cool.
The Riggly signs actually purple right now.
Because Northwestern being in Chicago, the home team.
Is that sacrilege?
The city's really replaced it.
Last time you had a football game in Riggly was 1970,
and it was the Chicago Bears coached by George Hallis.
So when we go back to the last football game at Riggly Field,
big news come out of here, and I'm not making fun of this guy.
Train Newton walks away from football concussions.
That came out today.
Texas Train Newton has asked for a release from the University of Texas football program.
Wow.
He's not here to add that.
As a freshman, he's had five concussions.
Sorry to hear that, son.
And that is also the son of former Dallas Cowboy Nate Newton.
It is indeed.
Who you would even recognize as they do.
No, but that's a sad deal because a lot of people on the locally no trade played it
on high school powerhouse here locally, South Lake Carroll.
But yeah, it has walked away at UT.
We'll stay enrolled.
We'll be a student.
We'll graduate.
But we'll not play football there any longer.
Sorry to hear that.
Also, real quick, little deal here.
All three service academies, bowl eligible.
It was the last time that had it.
It's off to those boys, Air Force Army, and Nate.
Congratulations to those guys.
All bowl eligible.
I know one of them has an automatic bid to the Armed Forces bowl.
Here in Fort Worth.
Actually, this year at SMU, because they're modeling in a car.
But that's my microscope real quick.
It's sticky here.
Let's go to lock of the week.
Shall we?
Yeah, this thing's nuts.
We both lost again.
But I still hold.
What now has a 50-50 shot of an insert mountable one game.
You have to win this week.
I have to lose.
That's it.
And there's one on here that jumps out like a...
If you don't win, and I lose.
That's it.
The best we can do with a champagne, the confetti.
You know, I could...
I speak of confetti.
I struck the victory lane.
I can ride.
I can ride how many times I've won something on a piece of confetti.
It's warm only one ahead of me.
Let's just recap real quick.
Last week, I had Baylor plus three.
Thank you for that, Baylor.
You had Texas plus three, and our plus five and a half.
I got close, but you were even in the fall.
Win for the upset.
Trying to make stuff happen.
Never claim to be Jimmy the Greek.
That's true.
It's having a little fun.
Oh, goodness, Mercy.
Alright, let's run the list.
Start now.
Hey!
This one of these teams finds himself in a very interesting situation.
FSU in Maryland.
If Maryland wins, I'll play for the SEC title.
Can you rewind and say that again?
Maryland wins out.
They play for the ACC title.
You said the SEC.
I'm out of my bad news.
Sorry.
Okay.
We're back.
FSU minus four and a half.
The Seminole's.
FSU minus three.
But yeah, Maryland's kind of hung around all year and won a bunch and won some games.
And they're right in the middle to make a late season push for that ACC spot.
Okay.
Purdue at Michigan State.
Purdue.
Just trying to keep Maryland Purdue.
We think of guys like Drew Bereese.
They've been approaching.
You know what?
You know what I think of what I think of Purdue?
Trains.
Basketball.
That's true.
They're basketball school.
Michigan State.
It's wanting to prove to 10-1.
Michigan State minus 20.
She's Louise.
Yeah.
Oklahoma State.
It Kansas.
Okie State.
The only thing way I can see this happening, if they overlook the J-Hawks for Bedlam.
Yeah.
It's at Kansas where I thought Kansas played Nebraska very well.
Kansas 3 and 7, 1 and 5 in the conference.
Oklahoma State minus 24.
Shoot.
Arkansas at Mississippi State.
Arkansas.
This is overlooked week to me.
Arkansas at Mississippi State.
Arkansas.
This is like week one over again.
Yeah.
Overlooking maybe Mississippi State to the rivalry with LSU.
Arkansas minus three.
They put up a ton of points, man.
Yeah, that is kind of an odd line.
Marshall at SMU.
SMU has been a team that I've been kind of watching all year very well.
Not as I didn't think they were quite as good as they were last year.
The Sanders kid that played their last year actually caught his first touchdown for Pittsburgh Sunday.
Wow.
SMU minus 13 and a half.
Oh, you at Baylor?
Oklahoma is not one a conference road game this year.
Keep that in mind.
I don't claim the Red River.
Shoot out as a road game.
Baylor?
We'll see.
Oklahoma.
Oklahoma wins.
Bedlam's for the title.
Wow.
Has never happened since 1984.
Jeez.
You were barely a young cat.
That was a casted character.
I know you team.
That was the boss and the boys.
Brother.
Oklahoma minus 7 and a half.
Nebraska.
It's good.
Texas A&M.
We'll see how good Nebraska is and we'll see if Texas A&M.
Especially since that's at Kyle Field.
We'll see if Texas A&M is also a night game.
Seven o'clock kick off there.
Brother.
We'll see if A&M is back.
They were a darling in the beginning of the year.
They were the dark course in the Big 12.
We'll see.
If they beat Nebraska, you now have a three-way tie for the Big 12 South title.
Didn't we have that last year?
We've had this year before last year.
Old miss at LSU.
Can I get a line?
Oh, excuse me.
Nebraska minus 2.
Almost an even.
Don't be surprised.
They're Friday.
It's not a pick.
I don't do that.
Old miss at LSU.
LSU looking to finish.
I don't know what you're playing for.
I think LSU realistically wins that.
They're trying to stay alive.
They're an at-large band team for a...
They could easily play in a sugar bowl.
If Auburn goes undefeated, something.
Yeah, because they're going to the SEC championship.
No, but the SEC championship is on block.
LSU can get an at-large band.
If Auburn plays for the national title, LSU is a sugar bowl.
But Auburn's still not going to get to the SEC championship.
Because even if Auburn loses, they still have the tiebreaker.
Yeah, well, that's not the point.
Okay.
LSU minus 16 and a half.
16 and a half.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think LSU all they can do is finish.
And probably miss is bad.
Like I said, get an at-large band in the BCS.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think LSU all they can do is finish.
And probably miss is bad.
Like I said, get an at-large band in the BCS.
Big money bowl.
Yeah.
And lastly, miss, Wisconsin at Michigan.
Wisconsin trying to punch their ticket to the Rose Bowl.
You know what?
This might be a decent game to watch.
And Michigan already bowl eligible at seven wins.
All they can do is play spoiler.
I don't know if seven wins at Michigan keeps your job next year.
They're back in the bowl game for the first time in two years.
That's it.
What's the line?
That's the line.
Oh, it's Michigan and Wisconsin minus five.
minus five.
I thought that was kind of low for that game.
I went first last week, so you'll go first this week.
Man, the one I want.
You can't have it.
Because I think that's just going to be a blowout.
Give me Arkansas.
You want Arkansas minus three?
Yeah.
I think they beat them by a little bit more than three.
This is it.
Do or die for me, man.
There's a couple things.
Go hogs.
I'll call you down, man.
This is it.
Now, first of all, out of respect for you, I'm not going to take Oklahoma.
Because to me, that's because I know you want to take that.
I want to take that.
Out of respect for you, my friend and my broadcast partner,
I am not going to take that game.
Now, another game I'm not going to take that I was going to take is Arkansas minus three.
Because at that point, and as I played a win, you can't win at that point.
That would be played dirty pool.
So now I have to re-look at this.
I want to take Florida State, but they're so skits out.
You just never, they're one.
I want to look at that.
Especially on the road.
I just never know what they're doing.
I just, for and a half, just, I almost think they were going to win that game.
I'm telling you, if they win that game, they stay alive.
Fridge has got those guys playing a little meaningful football in late November.
You know what?
I'm going to go out on a limb here.
Try to make it a little interesting.
Maybe we take it down to the final week.
I'm going to show this to you.
I want you to see it before I announce it.
Okay.
I am taking Kansas plus 24.
Hey, there you go.
Because I think Oklahoma State is going to be looking past them to Bedlam.
And they, they made that.
I don't think they can win that much against me.
Well, they won't know what goes on in Waco because that's a seven o'clock kickoff in Waco, Saturday night.
But I think they're kind of, that's going to be like I said, that's going to be for the belt.
I'm taking Kansas plus 24.
Yeah, that's for your big 12 South.
And then next week show, we got a big week next week, sir.
And we're going to talk about that here before too much longer.
Wow.
That a lot of foot.
A lot of football.
I'm on this football.
It's almost over.
As we leave football as a general.
And we said to ourselves a month ago that you weren't going to hear this for three months.
Real quick.
Got one story.
That's getting a little hairy.
We actually got another story that came out since we brought the wrong sheet.
But you said you are hearing rumors.
I think the cliff lead to New York things getting it won't be done till after the winning winner meetings in Orlando, which is the first weekend of December.
There's some people close to him and some some handlers.
And there's some people thinking this could be a done deal.
New York so far.
Now the Rangers met with him.
And it's not getting the positive buzz the meeting with New York did.
Okay.
I think cliff lead wants to be in New York.
I think it's a money issue because the Texas Rangers are in realism going against the federal reserve.
They print money in New York.
I think I know for a fact from some people that New York offered 172 over seven years.
So it came down from the 206.
Well, that's first offer.
They're willing to go over 200.
I think as the Rangers you don't get that rich.
You don't get that deep into it.
I know that a person with in baseball interest tweeted the other day.
The Ranger fan needs to learn with about life without cliff lead.
So things are starting to come out.
It was a great meeting him and his wife were very impressed by the Yankees presentation.
Of course, you have CC sabatia that's there.
Best friends goes back.
Well, their wives are best friends too.
There's a lot of things in that favor.
One other baseball note today.
Congratulations Roy Halliday.
He is your national lead psi young winner.
Also, congratulations.
They've tallie Phillies.
Sayon.
The rookie of the year.
And then Buster Posey on National League.
And then Roy Halliday.
Sayon.
Deadwinner.
What I just said.
I said that.
Just like 30 seconds.
Pete Matt.
He does pay attention.
I promise.
Your A.L.
Sayon will be named tomorrow.
Of course, if you follow us on Facebook, you'll know as soon as we do.
There we go.
Neftalee Phillies.
Is it Neftalee?
Neftalee, Neftalee.
Well, they had plans to make him a future starter.
It's a true rookie.
See, that's why when I saw that I was like,
I didn't know what was going on that year.
I thought this was his second year.
Yeah.
But I guess maybe he didn't play the major slashes or starts.
Real quick NBA news.
Don't we just let this play out?
You believe the heater pushing the panic button?
I mean, the heat pin is going to be pressed.
This is what I'm saying.
This is my bullet point out.
There's a heat panic in the press.
It seems like every game, if the heat lose,
this is the worst experiment of all time.
And then they'll go out and then win again.
And they're going to be the NBA champions for the next 150 years.
Exactly.
This annoys me.
Yeah, just let it play out.
I'm actually, I said from the get-go.
If you listen, what's funny?
The first show we ever did was the night after LeBron.
The night after that happened.
Because I was on the road, found out.
The first show we ever did.
Yeah, the Tuesday after LeBron, excuse me.
I said year two from the get-go.
You did?
I said I think it's-
And we will be putting that show here on you street.
I think it's going to be year two.
I just think it might take a year for these guys to kind of get together
and play together.
I think they need one more guy.
A bitch guy.
I'm not saying a star.
Well, they've got to have somebody-
They've got to have a presence in the middle of botches in it.
I think they need to have some role players on that team.
That basketball team has a lack of role players.
New Orleans.
Okay, the AAC last night and got them an L.
And I think they may get it back tomorrow night.
Yeah.
98, 95 is the Dallas Mavericks.
Do shock the upset-
Excuse me.
The undefeated New Orleans Hornets.
Congratulations to the Mavericks on that.
A real quick Western conference break down here.
We were-
We treated doing one in the preseason, but we said no.
So we let them play 10 games.
I'm going to bounce predictions off you.
I haven't had a whole lot of time to do a lot of research on this.
But you know what?
To me, in the Western conference, I think there's one here.
If you're not the Lakers, it doesn't matter.
Northwest Division.
I had Oklahoma City.
I don't know a lot of people had Utah.
But Utah is one of those-
There's always a bridesmaid.
Never a bride.
Yeah, Oklahoma City with Kevin Durant.
Of course, the Pacific.
I had the Lakers.
I like the Lakers there.
Again, if you're on the Lakers, it doesn't matter.
Southwest, I'm going to a limb.
I'm taking the Mavericks.
I think they can win that division.
I don't know a limb, sir.
Yeah.
The Mavericks are actually pretty good.
I think Houston's bad.
San Antonio's aging rapid.
As we-
I just looked at my watch right now.
Yeah.
They're rapidly aging.
Their bench has got some questions on it.
Parker may be going through some personal problems.
We'll talk about that here just a little while.
But yeah, I like the L.A. Lakers to win the West again.
Until unless something happens with an injury,
as long as Phil Jackson's on that bench,
he can never go against the Lakers.
And that's not-
Yeah.
And I know this may be his last role.
Some people think that's cliche radio,
but it wasn't meant to be that way.
That guy's got to grow more fingers if you want some more fingers.
It's just the honest to God truth.
And next week we'll do-
We'll do the-
You do the East.
I'll take a look at the East.
That is my-
Yeah, that is my look.
So I did the West.
I liked my maps.
I liked O.K.C.
But the Lakers, they have that hold on this conference right now.
And I'll tell you something.
Hold on.
It was a little shakiel here for a minute.
The diesel.
He's outstanding.
I'm going to tell you something.
You know, we talk about this basketball thing.
We talk about the Western Conference.
I'll handle the Eastern Conference.
Had a chance to spend some time in an on-air show Thursday night with our friend.
And a guy that you may remember from our college football preview.
He runs a show called Heart of Sports.
His name is Lonnie Hart.
Makes sense.
Yeah.
He'll be on Thursday night.
Yeah, check him on your stream for sure.
So that being said, NASCAR.
Well, there is hockey being played.
We gotta say there's hockey being played.
There's hockey being played.
And there's people winning games.
And there's people losing games.
And there's people tying games.
Yeah.
And there's people winning in shootouts.
I-
I think is you where you lose.
I don't believe in the tie.
I like to shoot out.
I think the NHL's got to get on.
But you can see the thing is you can still tie them.
Yes.
But I also believe that you shouldn't ever tie.
No.
NFL I'm talking to you.
By the way, breaking news.
Number eight Nebraska, verse number 19, Texas A&M has just been picked up by ABC.
So now you've gone prime time.
They're corn huskers and eggs.
Seven PM Eastern.
All right.
Let's talk a little bit of NASCAR.
Got one week left.
And we're Miami.
This is it.
Homestead.
Woo.
We're homestead Miami.
We're Denny Hamlin looking to shock the racing world.
What up?
Yeah.
Denny homestead.
Denny.
Get it going.
Denny Hamlin leaves Jimmy Johnson by 15 points and a surging Kevin Hartrick at 46.
After that, it's really a three horse race.
It's either Denny, Jimmy, or Kevin.
No good.
Jimmy Johnson.
But I don't doubt you.
But then you dip down to Carl Edwards.
He's 264 points behind.
That's your fourth guy.
Followed by Matt Kinsett, Jeff Gordon, Kyle Busch, Greg Biffle, Tony Stewart, Kurt Busch.
Clint Boyer didn't finish last.
Hey.
And then of course, Jeff Burton at 12.
Been a fun year for NASCAR.
Some of these guys, I hope they get some things going.
Junior being one of them.
Get relevant.
Let me ask you this.
Who's in the lead right now?
That would be Denny Hamlin.
Okay.
What does he have to do on Sunday morning to lock this thing down?
Does he have to win?
No.
He does not have to win.
I think Jimmy can't win.
I mean, Jimmy, I think you have to.
I bet if you and I would love to know what needs to be done so you can always email me.
We'll get to that here in a second.
But I'd love to know what he has to do to win.
What Jimmy has to do to win and what Kevin has to do to win.
I think Denny has to finish higher than both of them.
Maybe try to lead a couple laps because you get 10 points lead lap.
I think that's crazy.
So if Jimmy leads a lap, he's minus five.
So I just wanted those deals.
Well, I'll be keeping a blind here.
Exactly.
Also, the story that came out last week.
X-game, Dredgin, Travis Pastrano, who had a 30 on 30 done for him in July.
Teaming up with Michael Waldtrip to own a nationwide circuit.
Now, this is the lower tier.
This is what Danica drives on.
Correct.
They're going to own a team.
They're doing what?
Eight races or something next year or like that.
I hope it works.
I know Waldtrip had a good run.
He actually, you know, he owns that team.
I think Pastrano's kind of bought into it.
I think that's going to be the errands car.
He's owned that car for years.
It's also going to bring attention to the NASCAR sport from a different demographic.
So we'll see if they need that.
We want to give them recognition.
Let's pay some bills, sir.
Yeah.
Real quick.
John Crowe Pontiac in Canton.
Want to thank those guys for another bit of sponsorships to go by there.
Maybe your wife or husband or child wants a brand new car for Christmas.
Santa Claus.
Some people think it's-
How does he fit the car in the bag?
I don't know how that works.
Maybe it's like the side of a micro machine.
He puts it out in the driveway and waves a wand.
I watch the Tim Allen movie and I still can't figure it out.
But you can go see those guys.
Got a lot of selection of Yukon and GMCs to the GMC Yukons and Pontiacs.
And someone left them a lot.
You know, Pontiacs no longer have this, but they have some Pontiacs on the on-site.
Does it mean that's a bad thing?
Yeah.
Would love to make a deal on those.
You got to puect the lacrosse.
Cars like that.
I like that lacrosse, brother.
Or maybe you need a use car.
They've got a great use car selection there.
If you mention you heard about them from our show.
The Clubhouse with Robin Cody.com.
And you can get your first three oil changes absolutely free.
100 bucks in your pocket.
Yeah.
Boom.
There you go.
100 bucks.
Want to thank those guys again.
If you go to our website, the Clubhouse with Robin Cody.com.
Great website.
Spelled out.
No spaces.
Thank you, Richard.
And you click on that sign.
They're signed.
They're logo.
It takes you straight to their website where you can build a car from color interior.
Engine, special, bell, and whistles.
It maybe gets you pre-finance to GMAT credit.
You just write up at that point.
You're picking up.
You don't need anybody.
Pick up my car.
Okay.
I need my ride.
But you can get Holder Randy and Sales and he'll push the Ken and Finance.
We appreciate those guys again.
Outstanding.
Now there's also a little musical cue for you right now.
As I fade this out.
That's a great song.
It's a great video, too.
We haven't played this song in a while, so you haven't.
Whatever you hear, Nickelback see you at the show.
It means there's a major announcement coming.
I would call this a major announcement.
But it's an announcement of something we don't normally do.
That is going to come up later in the show.
If you are a fan of the third act of this show,
you'll want to be paying very special attention at the end of that segment.
Because we've got to, I'm looking forward to this thing.
Yeah.
I've been excited for two weeks about this thing.
Been a while.
So stay with us to the end of the show.
As we go, too.
Our random thought segment.
We didn't do it last week.
We were a little pressed for time.
But you brought something up to me on the email earlier today.
Now, let me remind you this is...
This is a Natalie Cole.
Okay.
It is November the 16th.
And you're probably hearing this and you're going...
Dude, Rob, what are you doing?
If you know me, you know I don't do this.
Yeah.
It's getting kind of...
And so our random thought segment.
Because you called me and you said,
man, I was listening to one of our easy listening stations that we have here.
That's what I was going to do from one channel to the next.
And that weird.
And all of a sudden, in November the 15th of the year of our lower 2010,
you're hearing Christmas music.
Yeah.
And I mean, it closed off to where I thought we were not too far removed from Halloween night.
They're playing Christmas music.
And so this drives me insane.
To me, it's...
My wife loves to do the decorating thing,
although we're going to have to change things a little bit this year
because the cat ruined our pre-lit tree last year.
Cats.
I have a Mount Live lives in my house.
But my wife loves the decorate.
And I love Christmas decorations.
I love going out looking at Christmas lights.
But not before Thanksgiving.
And it drives me nuts when I go to stores.
And they don't even have their Thanksgiving stuff out.
It's already Christmas.
Christmas.
Same thing with Christmas.
It's a Christmas grocery store.
There's television commercials.
Oh!
Look at there.
I mean Sears and Best Buy and all these department stores and Amazon and eBay.
It's all Christmas.
Christmas.
Christmas.
So for you, when is it appropriate?
December.
Actually, I can handle it the Friday after Thanksgiving.
Friday.
Christmas.
December.
I mean, excuse me.
November.
The Friday after Thanksgiving.
Christmas.
December 26.
Done.
Turn it off.
I am the exact same way.
I don't want to hear it before Black Friday.
Yep.
And hey, 12.01 am Black Friday.
I'm good.
Because now a lot of the malls, like Target, I know, is going to be open at midnight.
Exactly.
The mall, our local mall here last year was open at five in the morning.
And had a crowd of people wait.
I was chilling at five in the morning asleep.
I was at the same.
I don't really, unless it's a deal that I can't even, like I can't fathom not getting, I don't
shop on Black Friday.
Plus, I'll have to work that night anyway.
So, I don't, and then once Christmas day is over, I'm done with Christmas music.
I love Christmas music.
Christmas is my favorite time of year.
But once that happens, I'm done.
And it's another thing I tell my wife is you have to, I have to have the decorations down
by New Year's Day.
New Year's Day, huh?
Because it's bad luck to have your Christmas decorations up after New Year's Day.
See, I'm a big more fan of the Black God P on Christmas on New Year's Day.
See, and that's something I didn't know about until I moved to Texas.
I'm, I'm, I'm like a big pot of fresh tea.
I'm a Southeast, Southeast Florida guy.
I did not know what that meant.
Yeah.
And I'm not a big fan of the Black God P.
Oh, I am.
For the baby.
Yeah.
But will I am kind of beats me down?
Although he had an H.S.O.
I got a little look on it.
He had an opinion today.
But yeah, that is random thought.
Random thought in there.
Holiday.
Happy Thanksgiving.

You know what that sound means.
It's time for us to get into act two of this thing.
No movie news this week to talk about.
So let's get straight to new releases.
I don't know if you saw this.
Thursday night.
Probably starting at about seven or eight in the evening.
If you have an AMC theater near you and you are a fan of such things.
They're coasting what's called the Harry Potter adventure.
Wow, for one price,
depending on where you are,
you're going to see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
followed by Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.
And then right at midnight is the release
and you will see it of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part One.
Now this book, my wife has read all the books.
I've seen this book.
It's two inches thick if it's nothing.
They've split it into two movies.
Compared to all the conjecture,
I've already said what's going to happen.
They are not doing part one in 3D.
A lot of people thought it was a money grubbing thing
by Warner Brothers to stretch it out that much farther.
I think it's them wanting to do this thing right.
Finish it right.
I mean this has been 10 years in these kids' lives.
So part two comes in June and that will be in 3D.
Your other big release this week?
Russell Crowe?
Elizabeth?
June?
No.
The girl that was in...
Elizabeth Banks.
You're Elizabeth Banks.
You blew my wheels off on that.
Also, Leah Neeson is called the next three days.
She looks like a good flick.
I may attend a screening on this one or not.
I haven't decided yet.
Yeah, this might probably be something that's in my future.
I like this.
She is wrongly accused of a crime and sent to prison.
And...
Leah Neeson plays a guy that's broken out of that prison before
and they form a plan to get her out.
Elizabeth Banks.
Hot.
Yeah.
Can I say it?
DVD and Blu-ray this week.
We start off with Thunder Smurfs.
Avatar.
The extended collector's edition.
There are three different versions of the movie.
I know.
It's just...
But Cameron does this.
What he does.
And Chad and I were talking about this the other day.
And he still doesn't understand my...
I have no desire to see this film.
None whatsoever.
Yeah, you know, that's...
I'm like one of ten people in America.
That's a little over me.
I'm the same way.
That's a little bit beyond me.
But his previous effort, which I refer to as the boat movie,
I will not talk about its real name.
To me, Cameron is so style over substance.
And I know it's going to be visually brilliant.
There's no doubt in my mind.
It's Cameron.
But with the boat movie, if you take the boat out of it,
I've seen that movie a hundred times.
And I kind of feel that way about Thunder Smurfs.
I just...
Okay, we need to save the planet.
We need not invade things and blow stuff up.
Gotcha.
The more you know.
Yeah.
You know.
Although our good friend, Devon Pike,
I had a conversation with him about this.
I think that you have to see it in the theater.
I don't want to take three hours out of my life.
Exactly.
For that.
Disney's version of a Christmas Carol releases today.
This is the Jim Carey CGI version.
If it's not Scrooge, make duck to me.
It's not the Christmas Carol always like the animated one.
A little bit better.
Okay.
That was a little weird, but I'll roll with you.
That was a kid.
That was one of my stop downs.
I'm just not a big fan of that.
I've seen so many versions of a Christmas Carol.
Yeah.
It's just...
Dude, who's going to do it next?
I mean, you're right.
I like Patrick Stewart's version of it.
The TNT did.
That was pretty good.
Lot of retic-
Hey, I mean, I had a big signing when this movie released.
You did?
I made you a picture down there.
Yeah.
This is a flick.
It's a complex movie.
It's one of those kind of movies.
If you use the restroom and then you got to pause it.
Yeah, you can't leave lottery ticket.
There's a lot going on.
Ice cube and a bunch of other people about a guy who gets a load...
Winning lottery ticket from a guy that ends up in prison.
And then the guy gets out of prison and wants his money.
Hilarity apparently ensues.
Yeah, I don't know.
And it's a cube playing a...
I had a Q&A with him in this film.
Did you really?
I'm glad you did.
Also this week,
I don't know how much you know about this next film.
You've probably...
There's other films you may have seen that you think are called this,
but are not.
The film is called Best Worst Movie.
Do you think about this?
Was this a...
One of the funny, the little,
Wayne's brothers-
No.
Okay.
This is a documentary
about a guy
that was in a movie called
Troll 2.
Okay.
And its star was a guy by the name of Michael Stevenson.
Okay.
And he was a guy that was just a dude.
Like, he wasn't like an actor or anything.
Uh-huh.
He was just a dude and his buddy was doing this movie Troll 2,
so he was in it.
And it has now become very rocky horror-esque,
where there's just screenings of it all over the country.
And this is a documentary
about this guy and what's happened to him here and there.
He and the director
by the name of Michael Stevenson
showed up at the Scream Awards together.
This is getting a lot of positive buzz.
I may check this out if it's on the instant cue,
because it looks kind of neat.
It's basically the look at the film
and it's journey from being crowned the worst film of all time
to a cherish god.
I don't know if it's the worst film of all time.
Troll 2.
Well, because there's a lot of other questions
from the first troll movie.
Is this a more of your remember the leprechaun?
I am the leprechaun.
Leprechaun the Hood.
It was nice to hear that.
And Jennifer Anderson was in one of those films.
Don't get me in a line.
Last one we're going to talk about this week is
the director's special edition of the Endless Summer.
Okay.
This was a film from the 60s about a bunch of guys
that just chased waves for a whole summer.
Cool.
I saw this for a very young, I may check it out.
Is that the way they just revitalized some of these films
as though a director's cut and a special edition?
And then remaster it.
Yeah.
You know, there's a bunch of other stuff coming out this week.
I'll talk about that on my blog within the next 48 hours.
So be on the lookout for that, which you can get to
from the clubhousewithrobbincoady.com.
It's there.
You have a brand new engine.
I have not read it yet.
It's there.
I'm going to read it tomorrow.
I'll open it up and it's there.
Music news this week.
We need to change the music up just a little bit
for this to be important that I do so.
Give me one more.
The last time I checked Christina Aguilera was still divorced.
But apparently dating somebody new is very, very happy.
Jessica Simpson got engaged this week to oddly enough an NFL player.
I don't know.
He was at one point.
Was he, yeah.
Was he the kicker or...
No, he was a quarterback, I thought.
I didn't know him, but he's hungry.
I'll go with you on that.
Like this.
Good song.
Their lead singer?
We go date line on Terry O'Canada.
Great.
People in Sebastian Bach arrested last night.
He was trying to leave a bar.
He was told he needed to leave a bar.
He got a little belligerent.
Through a glass through a window shattered the window.
And you read this correctly served.
This is not a typo this next line.
He bit a staff member.
Cop's finally wrestling to the ground.
Found almost two grams of Mary Joana on him.
And just booked him on a bunch of stuff.
Well, you know what you call that rob?
Rock'n'Roll.
When was the last time he rocked?
I just rock'n'Roll.
He's been doing jekyll and hide on Broadway for the last ten years or something.
Had any of the operas?
That's just rock'n'Roll brother.
Sebastian Bach.
Yeah.
I saw that.
You know, y'all saw, I guess he threw a glass.
It was like wine glass.
If you're going to rock, you'll take a wine.
Yeah.
Unless it was somebody else's wine.
Unless he just grabbed it.
He'd drink like a case of beer in there.
And just, rock'n'Roll drink wine.
Fit the soko.
Yeah.
Well, that was about a five-mile radius.
That was...
Now that's rock'n'Roll.
But that is rock'n'Roll.
The sundown ruff next live.
That was boy.
So.
And you mentioned something to me on email today.
I'm glad you did.
I gave you a homework assignment last week.
And I am conceding to your belief on that.
For those of you that don't know, if you haven't listened to last week's show,
December the 14th, there is a Michael Jackson album being released
of allegedly songs that he had recorded over the last three years.
The single, if you go to MichaelJackson.com, don't do it now.
Do it after the show.
You can listen to it.
It's called Breaking News.
I contend it is not him and I agree.
His kids are saying about a third of the album making really him.
It's the song.
Everybody's wanting to know about Michael Jackson.
It's just a weird...
You actually almost sounded exactly like the guy singing it.
It's just a very strange, strange deal.
Let me...
Let me...
Just real quick, kids.
This is what Michael Jackson sounds like.
Okay, that's Michael Jackson.
You got the new one?
I...
I don't have a cute apple.
Well, this guy...
Turn it down.
Turn it down.
Turn it down.
I'll tell you what this guy sounds like.
Uh, Michael Jackson.
It's like Lowell from Wayne.
It's a low i-methal movement.
Yeah.
No, it's not that bad.
But it's definitely not...
It's definitely not Michael Jackson.
Yeah, there's no way.
There's no way in the world it's Michael Jackson.
Music new releases this week.
Brand new album from a man referred to as The Boss.
I don't mean Rick Ross.
Bruce Springsteen.
The darkness on the edge of town story.
This is allegedly a concept album.
How many more concept albums is he gonna do?
Bruce, if you're listening.
Hits.
Love you.
I need born to...
I like the rising.
That was a decent album.
Just roll the hits out.
Hey, Rick.
I need born to run.
Born to USA.
I need to go Bruce.
Bruce.
I'd be even being on Rush Street to Philadelphia.
I'll go there.
That's good.
I'll go there.
But after that, I may be dancing in the dark.
That's you're going way back.
Yeah.
I'll do that.
No, but the rising is an album he didn't know for.
I don't know.
Was it decent album?
Last time I heard him.
He sounded...
He sounded horrible.
I think the last time he heard it was probably in the Super Bowl halftime show.
No.
I've saw some stuff on V8.
What's that Zoola Moon?
What's that television channel on direct TV does?
Zooa Palata?
It's all music.
I have that at Ubershoot.
I love that thing.
They had a palladium thing with him.
And somebody had to tell me that was Bruce.
He looked old.
That's because he's like 60.
So there's that.
Also this week, Brian Adams of the brand new album.
Although I don't...
It's not a brand new album.
It's called Bear Bones.
What he's been doing...
I don't know if you saw his crossroads.
That he did not believe in Jason Aldin.
Yes.
He has been going around just him.
And his acoustic guitar playing small clubs.
I think this is pieces of those performances or something they're in.
Because it's a lot...
It's a lot of songs you know.
I might check it out.
I like Brian Adams a lot.
He's Canadian.
You know.
Josh Groban?
He's still around.
He's still around.
New album called Illuminations.
And that's what I've got on that.
You know, speaking of Bruce,
that's a cute little Bruce here.
Key this guy here, if you don't mind.
Key Thurban.
Get closer.
Doing the...
Only eight tracks on the sound.
Is this an EP?
Is this new?
I don't know.
It's...
I don't...
You never know with that guy, man.
He's been a guy that I've kind of liked a little bit,
fallen off and liked a little bit and fallen off.
He's one of those cats for me.
I'm sure you'll be checking him out next Thursday.
He is.
He said earlier.
He used to have time to show.
Yeah, you know.
He's not...
He's not somebody I hate.
I'm not gonna go that far into it.
It's just...
It's hard for me to hear somebody.
I heard it.
And then...
Good day.
Yeah.
I like the country music you kids are driving out there.
Yeah.
It's kind of weird to me.
It is.
It's very weird.
It's very strange.
There's three more releases that I'll also have on my blog
later this week.
So look out for that.
As we now move to TV talk.
One quick update for you.
Conflicting reports coming out of either France
or San Antonio or LA, wherever you prefer.
Finally.
Online was reporting earlier today that even Longoria
and Tony Parker are divorcing.
About two hours later.
Eeeeeeee.
Online reported that her campus saying
Tony has not filed for divorce.
I think the wording there is very interesting.
Now, Tony has not filed for divorce.
But only what he has to.
You know.
Yeah.
Especially in the state of Texas.
Well, they're...
Do they have a house here?
He does.
I don't know.
She's from Dallas.
Is she really?
I was not aware of that.
I believe she's local.
And I'm going to say it.
A little overrated.
Ah, yeah.
A little overrated?
Yeah.
I remember that time she tried to take that guy's Heineken.
Very commercial.
Yeah.
But I think there's a lot of make-up in there.
Yeah.
Never.
I think that I remember that.
I just...
I think didn't she bring like when the writers were going to try?
Didn't she bring them pizza one day or something?
Something.
Oh yeah.
There's a lot of overrateness on that show.
That was a Wi-Fi vote working out for you.
Good.
It got real military.
Last week or this week.
I have not caught this week because of the obvious.
That a little bit more bigger fish frying at my house at 9 o'clock last night.
Yeah.
We'll talk about here just a moment.
But always deviant on usually kept.
I always catch them up to date.
They got into the military, the soldier syndrome thing.
But isn't one of them?
One of them's a former Navy SEAL.
It's great.
It's doing gangbuster ratings.
Hell entertainment weekly.
Does it own how high you 5.0 Bingo card?
I mean, it's getting a lot of steam.
Can't keep it up.
I mean, there's just...
We buds?
They need to cancel that show.
Have you given up on it?
I have not given up on it.
I'm going to pick up this cape.
That's a mid season replacement.
That's on my list too.
I want to keep up with that.
I'm...
When is that going to...
Do you know what January?
Day of the week.
Believe it's going to be on my nation.
Oh, it does.
Right after Chuck probably.
Because I think the event may take a break.
Okay.
Because the event's getting...
That's going good.
I notice your guy got unmasked.
Which one?
The modern family...
Oh, the ordinary family?
The ordinary family.
Kind of sorta.
Yeah.
That comes on tonight's episode.
Okay.
Last week her parents came to town.
And her...
Her father played by Bruce McGill,
who I have a connection to.
Very, very...
Very weirdly.
It's an odd connection.
I'll tell you off.
I've read the book.
In the book.
I need to write a book.
But that shows doing okay.
I just...
I don't see a season two coming out of it.
Boardwalk Empire is starting to ramp up a little bit.
Things are getting a little...
Little more heated for Nucky Thompson.
I've not watched this week's episode.
But this thing may go through...
Through January.
Because they keep saying...
Coming up on Boardwalk Empire.
And they're not even saying how many episodes are left.
So it's...
Roll with it, man.
It's getting there.
The next season is eventually going to go forward 10 years.
In the same town with a different individual.
I think it's going to be kind of cool.
And outsourced.
I'm about five episodes behind.
My DVR is so stacked.
It's ridiculous.
And I...
I want to apologize to all my fans for that.
But that's going to do it for Act 2 of this thing.
Wow.
We again want to think...
Ending with Scooby-Doo.
Well, actually we do have some breaking news.
As I'm getting a text message.
The Green Lantern trailer is up on Apple's website.
We'll probably want to check that out after we go off the air.
Check that out.
Hey, this is...
This is one of the screw ups.
I'll set that from day one.
This is one that I just don't know if they can pull off very well.
Well, a good friend of both of us on the show Brent Peoples.
He is saying he's a little worried.
Oh.
So he's saying it.
Yeah, obviously.
He's also a comic book artist.
Okay.
So I kind of trust his judgment.
But I'll tell you what.
We'll check it out after we go off air.
We'll queue it up and take a look at it.
So, again, thank you to John Crow.
Yes.
Out there in the great city of Peoples.
Thanks for those guys.
Always.
We're here with us and stay one.
Here's a question.
I just thought of this.
Is Black Friday?
No.
It'll be the weekend after this.
I thought Black Friday was going to be the first day of the first Monday.
I was like, no.
Lord, have mercy.
Definitely.
Thank those guys, the sponsor.
And for anybody out there listening right now all over the North American continent.
Philadelphia.
Yeah.
If you have a business you would like sponsored here on the show.
Feel free to email one of us.
That's right.
I am Rob at the clubhouse of robincoady.com.
And I am Cody at the clubhouse of robincoady.com.
Real easy to remember.
Yes.
And don't forget we do have Twitter handles.
I am Cody PS Hawk.
I am, yes, that Rob Irvin, the ERVIN.
And make sure you're following us on Twitter.
Yes.
Join our Facebook page.
Become part of our crowd by becoming a youth stream user.
It doesn't cost you anything.
Thanks for all you people listening out there.
We appreciate the support.
It's kind of a very, very grassroots campaign we're doing here.
And we're in it for the long haul.
Yeah.
We're committed to this thing to the bitter end.
Hopefully it's not bitter, but bitter.
Just as the saying goes.
So we are now at the 128 mark.
Which means it's time for the reason you called.
It is time.
As we always do, it's the last part of this show.
It is professional wrestling talk.
We've got a lot of stuff to cover for professional wrestling in the last seven days.
And I'm not even counting the next tea.
They're having a elimination tonight.
That's all I know.
I'll tell you what though.
Have you seen any of the footage from what they've been down to?
They cut to coal last week in the challenge.
He was asleep in his chair.
I mean, they're not pulling any punches since they moved them to .com.
And it's almost, it's hurting a product that's already bad.
Hopefully they don't do that again.
I just don't know if the diva that wins even wrestles.
Do they have wrestling on that show anymore?
It's driving me insane, but I don't watch it.
So I don't know.
I'm just kind of killing time for the song.
Because there wasn't that much time left.
So let's get right to it.
With our first headline is something that Cody reported on Friday of last week.
And I got some confirmation from that.
There is a rumor circulating around WWE Creative.
That's how you can hear well.
So and so is when you hear WWE Creative,
that's you're getting into some things there.
They're saying the Undertaker might be out of WrestleMania.
I don't know if that's a bad thing.
I think it kind of had a lot of people have egg on their face
because I think that's all we've heard about it over this streak
and Brock Lesnar and all these people.
You never know man, he might not be on the card at all.
Let's also qualify that with something too.
Because when you reported this last week,
Barb wire had an excellent question that Missy was right on top of answering.
This does not break the streak.
He did miss a WrestleMania.
This is just an undefeated streak of the times that he has been in WrestleMania.
This does not affect the streak and I want everybody to be sure they understand that.
And you know what maybe there's only just a few people,
I don't want to say, I mean there's only a few people to me that him can even be,
that he can even wrestle to me that even gives any relevance to the streak.
There's just a few guys where I can go yeah, yeah.
Triple H is one.
I know you don't like it, seen as one.
I don't want to see the right streak.
Maybe it stings one.
That may never happen.
Nash you know.
Still early.
We've seen it earlier in the streak.
I wouldn't mind seeing him and Nash go again.
There's only just a few.
Well Nash to the job though.
Yeah, there's just a few of those guys.
I think Nash will do it for the, to get back into the,
the Fed and I think for the money.
Absolutely.
He's not stupid man.
You also reported this late last week,
I don't remember, I've slept since then.
But,
Lacey von Eric, done with TNA?
That's what they said and it was supposedly a happy parting.
She was not released.
Was not a contract falling out.
She's just done it TNA.
I think she ends up it.
I think she ends up with Vince.
Doing what though?
Backstage.
I don't think you can put her in the ring.
Yeah, but what is she going to do backstage?
Interviews.
Oh, okay.
Maybe on camera backstage.
Maybe sex that thing up a little bit.
She's a good-looking lady.
Yep.
She's got that blood in her veins,
but she's, man, she's one key in the ring.
Man, she's one key in the ring.
Speaking of which, let's talk about impact.
Impact.
Is it bad?
Um, not the show.
What I'm about to say.
When impact fired up on Thursday night?
You know what my first thought was in that opening montage?
What's that?
Oh my god, we had a pay-per-view four days ago.
Yeah.
Like, it completely escaped my mind.
Exactly.
And I was just like, wow.
That was a very, you know, and the opening always liked the way,
and this is, this looks like WCW Monday Night Show.
You start the show, the music, hit, out walks, the band.
Here we go.
Here's your top guys.
They've, you can tell who's booking that.
We need impact girls.
Yeah.
You can tell who's booking that.
This, it looks like a bishoff production 1990s.
And I was watching, I was like, wow.
They just had a paper.
And see, this is part of the problem with them just having one show on Thursday night,
which is why they should have stuck with the Monday thing.
Is when you have a pay-per-view, and you wait four days?
It's tough.
96 hours.
It's tough to keep people caring at that point.
That's what I'm saying.
And you're just like, oh, wow.
Yeah, there was a pay-per-view.
Exactly.
You know, you're close to the next one.
But it was Thursdays.
I thought it was an okay, little bit of a promo there.
Oh, did you hear what Jarrett said to a bis?
Probably not.
Pimpin' ain't easy.
Jarrett's crazy, man.
I think he's lost.
I think Jarrett said, I don't give a, you know what mode.
I found this company I'm getting a check.
You know what?
Maybe he's the guy that's in that mode right now.
It was good to actually see Jeff Hardy in the impact zone for a change.
Yeah, he's.
He had been, he has not been in that room in three weeks.
Weird.
He's always just been on the, on the impact zone.
Yeah, I don't know what we're, I don't know what we're,
what the ultimate goal is with him.
But I agree with you.
He has to hold that belt for a year or it's pointless.
Yeah, I, I just think with, and especially since they've given him his own belt,
which I think looks like a Marty Grom ask.
We'll get to that in a minute.
But yeah, he has to hold this belt for a, that are part of a year at least.
Yeah.
Maybe legitimacy and that makes me sad because I've got to watch this for a year.
But yeah, something I thought about.
If you watch Jeff and his promos.
Is he turning into Raven?
Yeah, he's getting too cryptic for me.
I don't.
I don't like this part.
It just doesn't, I know you're enjoying this, but it just doesn't work for me.
It doesn't work for me.
You know what?
It looks like he just, he's in Jared mode.
He doesn't care.
To me, hardy as a heel to me is, it's working.
And maybe I just need to get used to this.
I think you've got him over as much as he's ever been over heel or face.
Yeah.
And maybe this is where he needs to stay.
I said something to you on the phone on Saturday morning.
You had not watched him packed yet.
I'm not.
I had not at that point.
And I told you to watch for something.
I said to watch.
I was supporting you on the headline on the Sunday morning.
Apparently we are not breaking news.
A battery complaint has been filed Monday against Floyd Mayweather Jr. in Las Vegas.
Well, that fight's never going to happen.
Nope.
Because Mayweather keeps ducking him.
And I'll say it publicly.
Many pack you out.
It's pound for pound the best fighter in the world.
Bar none.
But Hogan has old man walking down.
He does.
He looks bad.
You know, it's pretty bad when you get in there involved with him.
And he's got the electronic massager.
I guess the electric.
I don't know how you electrodes that just kind of keep chasing back.
And he's pushing that button.
And you had a garage door open in his hand the whole time.
And then he comes out.
It took him forever to get to the right.
He kind of got his arms in a little better shape this time, which was kind of nice.
I was a little surprised that they brought him out.
I think they might wait another week just because you know,
after this week's episodes, they will have an episode on Thanksgiving night.
They will be a new episode of Impact on Thanksgiving night.
So be prepared for that.
Uh, this new belt.
Weird.
It's actually got his face on it.
Yeah, a little early for that.
So every single immortal champ, we're going to give them their own belt.
How many immortal champs you think we're going to have?
Well, Hogan had that belt.
Yeah.
See, are we going to have a whole Coke and belt just because he's never had one in stone cold pack.
Exactly.
I just, I don't like it.
Well, on my next point, I didn't notice if you look at it real close on one of the little,
I don't know if it's on his, around his eye.
It says enigmatic champion.
Huh.
I saw a couple of close-up pictures last night as I was showing.
One of the ladies that joins us for ladies resting around the table, Tonya had not seen the belt.
And she's a big Jeff Hardy fan.
So I found some pictures of it online.
And apparently there's a little circle off his eye or at somewhere else.
And it says enigmatic champion around it.
Very weird.
Okay.
In my personal opinion.
We went to a mixed tag match, which was both of these Jersey kids.
Now, Cookie and Robbie E.
Okay.
Versus lethal and Taylor Wilde.
This, I thought my DVR was purposely going through slow-mo.
I had to check my DVR and make sure I was watching it in real time.
It was bad.
Well, you throw these people in the ring and they all think they can go.
And let's be honest, some of them can't.
Well, Cookie's trained.
She is trained.
Yeah.
She is known as Becky Bayless.
She's got experience in Robbie E.
Does too.
It's just...
Taylor Wilde, they've done something with her.
She doesn't look as great as she used to.
I don't know what's going on there.
She has a ton of makeup on too.
Weird.
It just was not a good match.
This next bit...
Sir, you called it.
Yeah, you know.
I didn't want to believe it.
We talked about this Friday.
I think we talked about this thing, Eric.
I'm talking about what happened on the Impact Thursday.
You know, they just signed three-three-year contracts.
TNA is not in a financial situation where they can pay guys to not be on television.
And it's the only thing if the machine guns beat you.
And you're supposed to be retired.
They didn't even show up.
They didn't even show up.
The guns, if you're supposed to be off television and you're off the show retired,
to me, it's the only thing that worked to put you on the broadcast to try to generate some cash in the storyline.
I think it's terrible.
We've seen it.
I think Bubba Rays, the only one that could play heel to make it even close to believable.
I agree with you on that.
I like Steve on Plankface.
And I think it's those guys' best days.
If they didn't resign with Vince, their best days are way behind them.
Yeah, great bit that started 1996 and ECW.
You know what?
My opinions, when they left the WWE, they were done.
Yeah, in my opinion.
If they had any relevance, Vince would have kept up.
I still think it's weird that he allegedly gave them the name to use.
And they still didn't use it when they went to TV.
I got a real quick question.
Yes, sir.
My Rick point.
Do you believe that?
I'm a little confused.
I wanted to...
Didn't I have a...
Is that where we're at?
I thought I had this later on.
No.
We went over it.
But we'll go back to it.
No big deal.
Oh, we did go, right?
I apologize for that.
I do want to know...
I don't understand what you're saying.
You're saying Rick has an outline.
Well, here's the deal.
I don't know what it is.
Here's the deal.
There's rumors.
This has probably been the most rumored Hall of Fame class I've ever heard of.
That is everywhere right now.
It's all over the place.
The rumor is they want to try to put in the horsemen.
Right.
The horsemen, meaning Rick Flair,
Tully Blanchard, Arn Anderson,
and Barry Wyndham, and JJ Dillon.
That's a rumor.
They won't do it unless Rick is there,
and obviously not under a TNA contract.
That expires January 1.
Rick Flair is done with TNA at a conference.
Allegedly.
Allegedly January 1.
I think they're making him the lackey.
So when things go awry and they see mortal,
they can jump Rick out or injure Rick real bad,
and he can disappear.
And I think Dixie would give him a rope knowing that is such a big deal.
To be the only man in the Hall of Fame twice.
Yeah.
That's true.
I think that's it.
I hope she would,
because to me,
those gentlemen need to be in the Hall of Fame.
Yeah.
They changed the game.
Especially Flair.
And I think you can,
you can then have Flair,
come out and go,
have a two-time Hall of Famer.
And Vince doesn't care at that point.
Have one on each hand.
The relevance of Rick Flair is nothing.
He's in nostalgia.
He's not going to sell pay-per-view,
sell T-shirt,
sell, he's just not that guy anymore.
He looks more and more like the crypt.
Yeah.
But I think you could put him in the Hall of Fame
with the full horseman in it,
and it's greatness.
My opinion.
That would be a great speech.
Yeah.
My opinion.
As we get ready for our Hall of Fame speech.
Exactly.
The Hall of Fame episode,
we're going to play later this spring.
I was wondering,
as I was sitting here watching impact on Thursday,
or I guess,
I guess I watched a Friday night.
I was thinking about something,
and I looked it up.
I thought to myself,
what does T&A average in a fire rate?
You know what their average
fire rate is?
Just take a gander.
Two?
Two what?
Just two?
I'm thinking.
I'll give him 200,000.
Take a zero off it.
20,000?
I don't know.
Okay, at that.
From the research I've done online,
because it's real hard to find out.
Somebody actually said they're averaging
20,000 fire rates.
That's barely enough to put the show on at that point.
Yeah.
After you pay talent, production.
I just don't see how much longer this thing is going to go.
Unless spike is just writing them checks
that are just ridiculous.
They could almost get away
with just using spike programming
and running three hour special shows.
Why?
There was talk about that earlier this year.
I think you do more buy rates that way.
Or do more viewers that way.
20,000 average out.
Free television.
And apparently last year,
Bound for Glory was 40 up 40%
from the pay-per-view before it.
Huh.
Which still ain't singing much.
That just shocked me when I read that
on Monday morning.
Is it just me,
or is Tenei starting to look more
and more like Mr. Burns from The Simpsons?
I could stay in a list on the hand.
He's one of the things I don't like about, in fact.
Joey Styles.
I would love to see him in Tazza.
I've said it before I'll say it again.
I would love to see the two of them at the table.
It would make me watch that show more.
Angle shows back up.
You read an interesting, you know.
You know the interview with him.
Set a couple things that kind of shocked me for a cat
that's under contract.
He's not, now he's retracted that.
I think his employer kind of gave me a hard time.
But he's, he's one to not ever turn the page
or shut the door on a WWE return.
He's very complimentary of certain angles.
That Vince is running.
Talked about certain guys he'd like one more go at.
It's a real good interview.
Would the WWE universe, would they accept Kurt Angle to return?
That's the question.
I think they would.
I mean, I don't know what I fear for that.
Yeah, I think I don't want, I don't want to have another.
Yeah, I think you bring Kurt in and do a couple things
and time deal legends deal and that's it.
Put him hoping.
Only a little bit gold medal instead.
I think you have to.
And the guys have longevity.
You know who I think he'd be great with in a match.
One not swagger.
The All-American versus the All-American.
Yep.
He'll be okay.
So.
Here's my concern with this immortal thing.
This was not a play on words by the way.
The one thing I like about immortal is at least it's not them
just beating everyday down.
That's true hours.
Yeah.
Yet.
Yeah.
This is bitch off.
It will.
And if this thing turns into.
You can get hairy.
Immortal packed.
It's going to annoy me quickly.
Exactly.
And something else I thought about.
And I'll get to that here in just a minute.
What was my next one?
Joe shut up.
Well, he actually.
Yes.
He is horrible.
I don't think he's that bad on the mic.
I think he's horrible on the stick.
He's probably one of the worst wrestlers I've ever seen in the ring
and on the mic.
I think the problem with Samoa Joe in the ring.
Is he's only good with a certain type of wrestler.
And his style is so incompatible with just about anything else.
That it looks bad.
That muscle buster scares me every time he does it.
Yeah.
He's just not.
There's just something about it.
I don't like his look.
I don't like his talk.
I don't like nothing to do with him.
And this next guy.
And why are we.
Why are we.
I thought he'd actually gotten released.
I thought Rhino was going.
And then they're bringing back under one of these immortal things.
I don't think it's an immortal thing.
I think he's just.
Rhino's back in there who really had.
Didn't even have relevance at the end of the original ECW.
And we keep trying to.
And this ties into two guys.
He turns on Rob Van Dam.
And Tommy Dreamer.
You know what my reaction was.
Oh, wow.
I don't care.
Yeah.
And why do we.
Why is TNA.
You know, Vince had the perfect spot for Tommy Dreamer backstage.
And Vince.
I guess just doesn't know.
And Tommy Dreamer won the rest.
Was it.
Was it Tommy that.
Yeah.
And Tommy Dreamer has no relevance in this business except backstage.
Sorry.
Work with the young kids.
Now, man.
Take the knowledge.
Because the guys got skins on the wall.
Yeah, I love each.
I follow him on Twitter.
I think he's a great guy.
I follow on Twitter as well.
I don't think he's a thug.
I think he really cares about the business.
And I'll say he just doesn't have any relevance in the ring anymore.
I'll say it.
Hall of Fame.
Yeah.
In some aspect.
Maybe professional wrestling.
I don't know.
Vince is Hall of Fame.
But I've been told it's all the footage.
I don't know if he did that.
Tommy Dreamer just never did a lot for me.
And I watch quite a bit of East the original ECU.
Yeah.
But I think I think he was.
Even the contributions he made to it.
I think.
I think he's.
I think he's called out.
I just do.
Here's an interesting little deal.
Made event mafia.
And now that I think about this, I'm probably wrong.
Because I thought they formed in October.
But now that I think about it, October is bound for glory.
And they were all gangstered up.
That was the theme that year, huh?
They were all in like 30s gangster style.
And they were already pretty much in relevance.
So maybe it wasn't October.
But they were done by you.
Yes.
You never know.
So I kind of wonder how long a mortal is going to go.
Because a mortal formed in November.
Because we all know what this point.
Did you watch AJ's match?
Yes.
Worst styles clash.
And third.
Yeah.
He almost dropped that dude on his neck.
That was a weird AJ's.
One of those guys.
I think if he doesn't come work for Vince in a hurry,
he's going to be a guy that ends up getting lost again.
But again, I don't know that Vince will know what to do with it.
I mean, what would you do with it?
You put him in the WWE right now.
What would you do?
I mean, where would you go with it?
I'd have to put him in a situation where he's going
after a lower in belt first.
You know what I do?
Or you might have been thinking about this.
And I've been thinking about this.
Just this just popped into my could base out.
Tag team.
Keep him the way he is right now.
Tag him with the miss.
Good.
Good work.
I think that could work very well.
You can get those two egos going.
Maybe put Miz in a suit.
Yeah.
You know.
Anybody who's suit, I'm always in.
And that dude, that AJ will wear a suit on you.
I like AJ.
Rude will wear a suit on you.
Oh yeah.
Because he's probably rude about the money brother.
I like him.
And I feel even storm will wear a suit on you now.
I kind of, just that whole way, we're business.
This is business.
Yeah.
Rude looks sharp.
Rude's got a great in-ring presence out of the gear.
And he's got a great presence with skill.
I like to do some research.
I feel like he had a shot with fans at one point.
I like him.
So I'd like to do some research on Robert Rude and see what's going on there.
You are saying that you feel that the Pope's thing is getting kind of stale.
I just think he's got a lot of, that angle comes to a dead end.
Well, this weekend he was headlining how it shows with Jeff Hardy.
So maybe we're warming something up there.
And I've just got a question.
Those fortune shirts were those made of Kim in first place.
It looks like somebody took a screen printer.
There you go.
There's a shirt boy.
It's fortune.
This is Rick Flair.
Let's take a, let's take a little bit more pride in these fortune t-shirts.
Well, I was told if you don't, you didn't want to buy a wrestling company.
Rick Flair is on it.
Hogan set.
Hogan didn't say that.
But what did Hogan tell Morgan?
I like that matter of fact.
Hogan.
I like that where he goes.
You're barking at the wrong dog now, boy.
I like that.
I like when Hogan pulls it out and goes, you know what?
I'm Hulk Hogan.
I like that.
But just those little flashes.
You'll see that little flash of that 1997 Hogan.
You're never going to see what we saw in the 80s.
No, you will.
But he shows flash of that little bit 97 most hated wrestler of the year.
Those little spurts come out every now and then.
That's going to do it for impact.
Talk.
We move to the next night on SmackDown.
SmackDown.
SmackDown.
SmackDown.
SmackDown.
SmackDown.
Do you know you're in it?
Do you know you're in it?
Do you know you're in it?
I put your point first because your point, your first point, bleeds into my first.
I like this guy.
Alberto Del Rio.
This guy's gaining steam.
Yeah.
And he's gaining steam.
I, I kind of worry that he might be gaining steam too quickly.
And you may burn out a little bit.
It's, they need to do figure out some way to get an icy strap on him or something.
Maybe do a four corners deal one not and Ziggler drops the belt.
I think they need to get gold around Del Rio pretty quick in my event.
So he's out there cutting and of course here comes the POD as Ray comes out.
And something I, my observation here was as much as Ray Mysterio just annoys me anymore.
He still gets unbelievable monster pops he he has he especially a bike and especially if they're on the west coast
He has monster heat out there man
It just it annoys me, but it's never gonna go anywhere as long as he keeps getting pops like that
You and you have this next point is
Zecaler is Zecaler getting lost the shop he needs a feud and what's bad is he's getting lost and he has a
Very historical belt with a huge lenient
Now is he is MVP get another shot looks like we're going there again
And why not with the bell phone like
MVP and I thought they were teasing him heel
And on Smackdown you can't you got so many heels on Smackdown all of a sudden he's you know, he's
Doing a lot of different things I guess that that's my thing is you can't turn him heel you got nose
You got too too many heels on Smackdown, and I hey, I'm fine with MVP
I said this before I'm fine with him with that belt because that's as high as MVP's ever going to get is going to be
Mid-card stat belts. He's never gonna be a guy that Vince puts the big belt on never gonna do it
David O'Tungle wins his match so he is still in nexus and something I was thinking about as I was watching him
Even though I honestly believe he can't work on his own he cannot he won't work on his own, but you know what I would watch a
Feud with him in Barrett
Maybe to lead nexus I just Barrett's got the he's he's got rig the charisma to lead guys that are
Are maybe a little bit lower on the card than him if Barrett's got the belt. I would I think I think it'd be a good
Just because I'm out
Just because you're out. I said if it's just because oh, like we're just gonna do it to do it
I'm out, but what about it? What if it was like for the leadership of nexus maybe and it divides the group maybe
But in order for that belt to get some relevance real quick. He need Barrett needs to melt a couple things they said about him
He's a Harvard grad. This is O'Tungle is a Harvard graduate with a bachelor's degree in psychology
And he's doing what?
Okay, his parents and that's true his parents have got to be hyper upset. Yeah
Sometimes they over-hyped these these kind of like the 40 40 Forbes 40 most eligible bachelor's yeah, they they fudge
Oh, it was weird some
Edge on Sunday could potentially be a ten-time champion
I I think it's the only way you save smackdowns put the belt on him
I said he'd have it within a month. Yeah, and I'm glad he's trying his best to put some sizzle into a feud that really I've seen it
Let me ask you this I've seen ever which way they can go. Let me ask you this is it good that this many guys have this many title runs
It's to me. It's the way of the business. I just I like it you move the belt around
But when you've got
Tripped 13 times. Yeah, edge
10 times. It's just the way nine times. It's the way of the business
It's just weird to me and I guess because I'm just that old
That this is the new bit new way of the business. It's just kind of weird to move that belt around
Our next point as we continue on the smackdown talk
Did you watch the last week's version of the stand-up for WWE with the people with the divas?
No, I'm sorry to come around a little bit on who on this campaign. Oh
Now that the elections over and I think they can focus more on
The individuals and why WWE was good for them and it's not
Oh, the media hates us and we have to take a stand now. It's the divas on their story of the fact that I've learned how to be a role model the young girls
And then I kind of like the human side of it
Okay, and if they can keep this up, I'll I'm on board with it. I'll be watching it just for the I which one did they do last night?
I don't remember seeing one. I was I think they did
I was busy busy busy. Yes, sir
Cody wrote
Had a nice little promo he cuts a promo on British people on their teeth
Let me ask you this
Cheap heat or genius to the bit genius to the bit I
Almost argued with you because in the beginning to me it was cheap heat
But then when he goes and shows an entire video package on how to floss at that point I went genius to the bit
I am ready for him. I'm ready for them to put a belt on him too. What are you gonna put on at this point?
Can be US or I see oh, yeah, he's not a man to move him back to wrong. He's not a man of it
I'll tell you what I'd like to see he's Ted when that belt and Cody come back to wrong
And we'll see we'll get to see that great who you're gonna turn you I think roads roads could work face
I think you do well. I'd rather see Teddy one face. Yeah
Did you watch the tale of the tape before your main event? No
We talked least last week about can't have it to run
Brincy he's only had two. Yeah, I was just like that's I died to for Vince McMahon
He's always love he's always loved that big man. Oh shoot in that shot second that shocks me that
Has it things cute up and correctly that shot?
That's
That shot could he just hold us through that shot that shocks me that that
Franchise had one run
But I'm here when this music queued one night and they come took that old belt off of him
So please Paul if you're listening remember how the video package started start game. Yeah
Brother Paul come home come home brother. Please hold just come back to the lip. Yeah
Did you see did you watch the knucklehead commercial they played during that? Yes, and this is just something for for those of us
That may be local. This may be a local bit, but did you notice who was selling the movie? Who's that?
There was a suncoast logo. I saw that screen. I saw it within a matter of a minute
It was gone and I went did I miss something here?
I have been told that they do still exist north of the Mason Dixon
Suncoast movie company used to love that they have some great collectibles you could look at I always like suncoast in the mall
Suncoast move there was all prices, but man
That's a cool stuff. You could look at it there
As we move to last night well old-school three hour raw
Last night was the first three hour raw that I really felt
Yes, we're moving we're shaking. I'm okay. Now we're done. I was like are we really only an hour two?
Yeah, you know, and I had a point and I'll just reword it. I'll I enjoyed it
My thoughts on it was I thought it could be done just a little bit better
Yeah
It's old school like yeah, we got we got our friend Chris Randall who is an old man
Yeah, you know, it was old school raw. I like the presentation
You know, I like that you had the old guard rails. You had the announcer
Oh, yeah, there was a lot of cable. Yeah, just the little details. I thought we're great
Yeah, there was a lot of things about it that I was I really enjoyed the man
There were some that I thought okay, let's and my main my big thing of it was
There are a lot of these people and this is lower down the deal
But I'm gonna push it up more a couple if you don't mind sure
We need new legends most of these people were not you and I talked extensively about this a lunch
And a lot of these guys were pre-raw may young to me is pre-raw
George animal steel. Yeah, I'm a cheek pre-raw
Nikolai Volkhoff pre-raw. I mean, we're smarter. Well, Sargent Slark as he was commissioned
Yeah, if we're going old school role
I need some guys that I need why can't we get the attitude air allegens
Involved in this and I'll tell you why it letters
GG. Yeah, if it's that crazy like my main deal with the divas like you like me and you were texting and doing things
Lita Lita was just there two weeks ago. Yeah, I didn't understand that
Mark Henry though coming out to the old sexual talk with me. That was great
I just I like the little things how you had the interview room where it was that the yellow and blue stripes on the walls
Mean Jean had his little table out there amongst the crowd
Interviewing you know, I thought cowboy Bob looks bad. Yeah, a lot of these guys like a pre-raw
That's probably my only bad thought about it other than that. I thought you know what?
I thought it was a pretty solid raw
It was a good show. I was a go for a go a going home show into a major paper
I thought it was great and it was and I'll be honest. That's the best show. They've done it at least a month. Yeah, it's great
Why does Vince A tag team? I don't know if he the heart dynasty
We saw the usos. I need to see a little bit more of them
But here's my thing you're gonna make them job on a number one contenders match to Santino and
Coslo and Santino draws at funny heat
I mean that was a funny bit when Coslo and and Volkoff were singing the Russian national anthem each other
But Santino right now is getting the funny funny heat. I just I don't understand
But you know the heart dynasty you're gonna break them up Vince. I don't what does Vince have against tag teams?
I don't understand you need to division. It's man that that deal with
I don't know I didn't see the heart dynasty coming as much time as they put that with natty and and but and they're the breakup is going so
It's been a weird deal. You know, they're still doing appearances together
Which from what I read around showtime is they're still trying to they're still trying to do stuff
Very strange the way this is work. Yeah, some of it was just odd that
The D.V. O.C. Gold all was a golden. Just just gives him the bell back
It gives it gives it to Ted Sr
After this whole build up and that you just give it why can't we wrestle for that belt at the manger?
We find out later why but my question the time was
We can't do anything else with this angle and gold does put on the Twitter today
Sometimes angles just died. Yeah
You know he didn't have an explanation because it's just what happened they do I
Thought that was the worst I but in not the the animals the steel to me
I
I love to see that to me that really cheap and at the time that was seem to be a really good match
Both guys were working. It was going somewhere
And him coming down there. I kind of went oh what you're getting it started for the major. Yeah, I kind of I
Just knew what was coming that O. Tongue was end up job and I was like this is where we're going
It was just very strange, but there was something that came something very interesting that came out of that backstage bit
That Tonka hey looks good. My good. That did could still go
Yeah, he's in that Ricky steamboat category if that cat could still go if he wanted to
To talk I had not seen him in a while was great that Ted though you talked about earlier that Ted gold dust bit that was hard to watch
I wanted to see my if I see dusty roads on screen. I want him in the ring cutting one on somebody like you did on an XC liver quiver
My knees freeze. Well something like that. I have done with kings and queens and lifting all of it
Yeah, I need him cutting one. I don't need him and I don't need him backstage in a wig
I was okay with it. I thought I'd excuse to have dusty on TV. Yeah, because dusty is one of the all time great one of my all-time favorites
We covered the may young thing. Yeah, why the fact that the bellwood twins basically carried her out
That was a weird bit that's 83 year old. I actually I actually was doing some actually I lost that's where they lost me
I was watching Maverick's basketball during that that's when they lost me and I'm sure there's no doubt in my mind that
Backstage they treat her like a queen. Yeah, but do I need late cool cutting them out of all on her that they they lost me at that point
I thought you know what I'm gonna go check on the NBA action
So I get ready I do really kind of upset a little show pretz. I was gonna talk about basketball
I want to know what the heck I was talking about and then Finko announces
We have a legend to sit at the table, and I knew who that was
A young gentleman we met
Three four weeks ago very very pleasant exchange there very and that made me up
I mean, I didn't think I could be a bigger J.R. fan until that day in Norman, Oklahoma
Exactly it made me a bigger fan of that man because he was so nice
He I mean he could have easily given us the Heisen, but he stopped to talk to us and that was huge now that was cool
He still has it. I don't why are we?
We're making and people ask him and he's very diplomat about we made him a legend, and I don't know if it's necessary
I think the guy still has relevance as an audio or a voice
Maybe they're gearing him up for this rumor. WWE channel
That's fine so great, but I just feel like J.R. has more relevant
Then we're just gonna fire him up on some brawls
These legend Rawls. Yeah, it's kind of a weird situation to me. Yeah, but he was great as he always is
Joey Stiles put on Twitter. I like to see this as a three-man booth of J.R. just ignoring Cole's insults and King just laughing at him
I'll tell you another thing too with that is J.R. is not going to do the travel
I think he's kind of happy. I like that. You know, if you read him if you read
If you read his stuff his stuff on Twitter, we're help you know, don't take a quick two-day
John's over to Tampa and sit with FCW and keep an eye on what's going on over there, and I
Think he's happy, but I still miss him on air now. I'll always well. Let him call the majors exactly, you know
Chavo classic drove out our Mondo Del Rey and I'll be honest with you
I've been following this business a long time did not know who and God's creation that was you couldn't take one look at him
I know who that is I knew if it was a chavo. I knew his relation never once worked for Vince McMahon
So why are we firing up the we're just now at that point to me? It looked like we were grabbing people that might have been in a ring
It's it that's it my only that's my only deal with it
There's too many guys that didn't have any relevance there. Yeah
Well, did you notice at the end of the thing when they brought them all out?
They lied that entire stage there was a lot of people
We also had a lot of backstage people, you know, orange on all over Monday
Yep, so when I see Arn Anderson
I don't go whoa, but I'm always up for it. Excuse me. I'm on camera
But are there one of my favorite you know aren't backstage. He's raw one of the raw of a road agents
So they show aren't on camera almost every Monday of some capacity
You know he's there. Yeah, but I'm always up on with aren't on camera slaughters the same way
We talked about this need for new legends, but here's you bring this up to me quite a bit and
How come Orton can't get heat with the belt? I don't know and have you noticed it yet?
I really since you've said it
I've been watching a little more carefully. Orton has zero heat when he has that belt
He just cannot carry the belt. There's a lot of guys like that
Undertakers like that. He just can't carry the belt
Not knocking him in ring not knocking the bit to me
He's just not a guy that he did he can't carry the belt
We did have piper's pit
Which I wish they would have done a set for not just done it in the ring. Well, they oh, yeah
But there it you know you munch in this too
Barrett's getting much better all around. Yes, Barrett his his in-ring style is getting better
His work on the mic is getting better
I mean if you remember when this guy was on NXT
He came out in like with a suit jacket draped over him with a with a little rose in it and whatever color rose
It's simple and I was kind of like this can't be this guy's bad
This can't but he's really coming into his own. I've been very happy with his work. I'm looking forward to Sunday
ready I
Said on Facebook earlier today if you read our post. I have an ultimatum
And as a member of the WWE Universe I am giving the WWE in ultimatum. I'm not threatening anything
I just and we'll talk more about this on Sunday
You have to turn
See the heal on Sunday. They don't if you don't abandon the whole thing
That's my ultimatum either turn him or kill the angle because it's gone on too long. They're not going to turn him
I think it's gonna be like I said earlier when we talked about this
It's gonna be one of those deals that what's gonna happen. He's gonna. I think I think they take that belt off
They're trying to find a way to take the belt off Randy without turning scene
Because they've got to get that belt off or it's dying again
But if he's just released from Nexus and that's just gonna be it. I don't know
We'll talk more about this when we tell you more about what's coming up this weekend
But let's go to another one of my personal favorite times on the show. We're gonna fire up that time machine, sir
Just a couple here tonight. I don't know if you're gonna be able to beat last week's
Point of at this weekend wrestling history was
Not only impressive, but timely exactly
But we go to this weekend wrestling history first of all take it away survivor series
1998 you're later you're later
The rock defeats me. How was it on this day? No the rock defeats mankind in the finals of the deadly game tournament
Wow because they vacated the belt there
Weird thing. There's an angle that went along with that triple H was supposed to have the belt, okay?
He got hurt
So Vince instead of throwing it on a guy did a
Tournament Vince going in is said that he did not know that the rock was gonna become such a star out of that tournament
Now was was triple H some doghouse at this point though. No, he was out. Okay. He had just he had had tweaked some stuff
This is when he came back as Billy what we see now. Okay, he was so low
He had dropped the DX thing he'd killed that angle
But not mankind rock first tolerant. I was actually in Dallas at the Royal the Go home show before this
Where are you really and the fine when the rock was playing face if you remember and
Then Vince he puts mankind in a sharp shooter Vince goes ring the bell ring the bell
Is this was this the beginning of the corporation? Yes
Yes, and then so the rock wins the belt comes out the next day in a $5,000 shirt
They're on raw got this was kind of the catalyst of where the rock kind of jump started because he had that belt
also
Just one more off could really found two of the consequence this big man harsh Jesse Ventura
As a common color commentator for the XFL
And again if he doesn't put his name on that it goes longer than one. Yes, that was a mess quickly
How I learned to play QB1
Was watching the XFL which would later become a pretty big player at the bar. I worked at
Somebody someone I know is listening right now Chris Randall was a big QB1 player. Wow
Shout is he right now listening he texted me said he is listening because he asked me to give him a shout out
That's why I said his name. Yes, so I know he's let's Chris Randall. Hello, sir. Always good to have him always good to have him around
Let's talk about our pseudo major now got one words for him and it's panther
He'll know what he'll know what that means
If I had my hand on his shoulder my mouth open and said panther, he'd know what that is
Oh, I just got real local on that
We said
When you heard this song later in the show we'd have an announcement for you whenever you hear this song we have an announcement

We'll always do a special edition

Yours truly will be officiating the ceremony very excited about that as well
So Jules welcome back to the states in
Five days market
So let's go to the last part of this thing
As a pendulum swings back to me and if I'm being perfectly honest it didn't hit me till this morning
I just like oh wait a minute. This is my turn
Tell him about a shotgun
It is time for the list
And I was thinking today as like you know what what what what something because we're getting to a point now
We've got us to really start getting creative with this thing and so I thought to myself I
Wonder what the top 10 biggest box office bombs of all time are
So I looked it up. I found a list
Number 10 and what we're going to have is I'm gonna tell you what the movie is
I'm gonna tell you how much it cost to make it then how much it made the box office and how much it lost
Number 10 is a movie called in-chown from 1982
Lawrence Olivier was in this thing. It was a war style film cost 46 million
Made 5.3 at the box office losing 41 million. That's number 10
Number nine final fantasy the spirits within you remember this thing was a CGI fair. Yeah cost 167 million dollars to make
Which I guess the technology must have been that expensive back then made 85 million to box office lost 82
So it lost it barely made half of its budget back now
This is budget of film and marketing. Okay
Heaven's Gate, which was a debacle if you I know anything about this movie it was
Costs were ballooning things weren't getting done. There's a whole book written about this the making of this film and how bad off they were
Cost 44 million to make and made 3.5 at the box office losing 40.6 million dollars
Number 7 another one the watch house keys after the matrix chilly decided they're gonna take on speed racer and
Spend 120 million on it made 94 of it back
Wow, yeah
Which I think my my numbers are off there
Because it says they lost a hundred six maybe it was 220 well
Town and country which was a movie that had everybody in their brother Goldie Hawn Kevin Klein
There's a this the cast budget alone must have been ridiculous 105 million made 10% of that box office 10.4 losing 94.6 million dollars
Number five on the list the 13th warrior you remember this thing Antonio Banderis there we go. Yeah
160 million dollar budget made
61.7 million dollars at the box office losing 98.3 million dollars
Who falls on the sword for that loss will you
You have studios that make so much money on other movies it kind of washes that's true
But they're also very leery on doing business with the same people again
Number four Sahara you remember this thing. Yeah, Matthew McConaughey was some a hike in this thing
I believe that would act 241. This thing cost a quarter of a billion dollars to make
Made 119 at the box office
Losing 121.7 now. This is just box office. I'm not counting rentals
I mean this is just at this is a median ROI which is for return on investment
number three
This movie should never be made again with Eddie the adventures of Pluto Nash. This thing was terrible
I didn't even see it. I know it's bad, but this thing cost a hundred million dollars to make
And it made seven point one million dollars
With with full cost of distribution everything lost 112. I had to pay it and he's 80 of that probably
number two
The Billy Bob Forten vehicle is the Alamo. I think I've seen about 15 minutes in this never seen it
cost 145 million dollars to make
They 25.8 million dollars and it's an entire theatrical run
That's all it made
Wonder what turned people off to that film too long could make and
Number one and I'm surprised that this was the number one on this list
But the numbers don't why cut through Island. This was Renny Harland directing his wife Gina Davis in a pirate film
Remember this thing. Yes, cost a hundred and fifteen million dollars to make. I got that on me
You're saying made ten million dollars in its entire theatrical run and this was in the
95 which was right in her little heyday. Wouldn't it? Yeah, she's so what grade this point lost a hundred and five million dollars to the box office
And what really kind of inspired me to do this list as I remember somebody once told me that ish tar
Only made half of its production budget back ever if rent holds home video everything
But that's it number 17
It's a great list that I found I believe you can find it on Wikipedia look at it
It just amazes me how how a
Production can lose this much money. Yeah, that weird and you know, let me look at the names you got list
Gina Davis Billy Bob Thornton Eddie Murphy Matthew McConaughey
Antonio Banderis Goldie Hawn John Goodman
Warren Beatty
Sir Lawrence Olivier for goodness sake and even that proves even they can do stinkers
