Lakers road trip, Notre Dame football, NFL Thanksgiving games discussion

Welcome to In The Sports Booth Live from SkidboroStudios.com I am your host Eldrick Bone once again Ready to take you through a wild, wild week in sports But can't do it alone And today, kind of an empty booth But we're not going to complain because we got a lot to talk about Between me and this guy We got Mr. Jacob Stockfish Yeah, yeah And today, hey, feel free to call in I'm ready for you callers 800-893-9562 Lou, are you listening? I'm calling you out, man 800-893-9562 Call in, man Well, we've had a lot of fun to be A lot of fun was had this week At least if you were a Laker fan It wasn't all that Pretty, I guess I do want to say this I'm pretty sure, not too sure That I called it last week When the Rockets played Last Sunday Told you guys High scoring game is going to be the winner of Who scores the most This is going to be 0-0 to be had Did you watch that game? I did watch that game You did? Oh, wait, I know Didn't you guys go with the guys? Oh, you weren't Where were you last week? You were here, right? Yeah, I was here But we did talk about that game And then I went home and watched it It was the Houston-Laker game Yeah I thought Houston would squeeze it out But the Lakers ended up Pulling away by a lot, right? Yeah, I mean, like I said It was just Yeah, Antonio's first game I expected 0-D between the two So that worked out But I mean, that's the last Good thing we could have said About the Lakers week Because right after that They went on a road trip First game, Sacramento That's the game I did not see happening It was just terrible production, man I couldn't believe it Did you see that game, too? I was there, too I was there, too I was watching it on highlights Yeah, man, that thing It was Kobe being on fire All of these games, by the way There's just no stopping Kobe And then the rest of the team Is just not producing Yeah, but Dwight's been like Dwight and Powell both In the last two games Have looked like I mean, their numbers look like It's one game Like 12 and 11 14 and 12 And, you know I don't know what is going on in there But something needs to make sense Because you guys have a huge big man game That could be had That needs to be had And it's not working out for some reason Yeah I mean, in the I think in the Sacramento game Dwight only took four shots That was him, I think Yeah, that makes no sense That makes no sense That's the guy you want activating the ball Although his role Has been changing Instead of just like Slamming it down every time When he's not really He's not getting a lot of You know, throw-ups in the air For him to slam down And, too, he's working I like what he's doing off the bench Because he's doing He's playing the way he played in Orlando Which is Kick the ball out to him Let the double come Kick the ball out I mean, they're going to be dunking a lot But it's going to be It's going to be It's going to have to be When Steve Nash gets back I mean, you know Because he's that type of guy Who can throw up those layups Throw up those lobs But for some reason You know, I mean I don't get what's going on with the Lakers I don't get why Dwight's Performing so low Powell, I can kind of understand Because he's been on a constant Kind of, you know Come down for quite some time But Dwight It makes no sense to me It makes no sense to me That he's Getting seven points a game And six boards That makes no sense Well, versus Dallas Dwight had a good game It was a great all-around effort Yeah And, I mean Not to say that Let's just put Metta's name out there Metta is just doing work Last game, he had 27 points That's as much as Kobe had And I think that was a career high for him Yeah, but is Metta going to be the guy That you go to To win championships? The good thing about it is If he has If he's playing with the confidence He has now In the playoffs He's shooting I mean, absolutely He's not the guy I'm going to rely on For sure But it's great to have somebody Relieve the pressure off of Kobe But it's scary when a guy Like Metta's the guy Scoring 27 for your team Well, that's a big problem to me The other person Especially when you got guys like Powell, Dwight, Kobe And, you know, Steve Nash On that same lineup You know, Metta shouldn't be The guy scoring 27 I agree completely And that's the thing That's bothering me the most Hey, what do we do with Powell? Because Powell's the one lacking now In the last game He even had I mean, he didn't have The strongest of games I wish you would have had 27 points His game has been This is the best game He's resorting to open shots But from mid-range So you're seeing him Get some open shots Top of the key You know, from the free throw line Or whatever And he's thinking Some of them But that's the only shot And he's That's not the best way To utilize him I just I really don't understand How the team's not messing You know It's You have Two of the best big men In the game You know, the best player Overall Historically Still active in the game In Kobe And he's I mean, I just don't get it You know, I don't know if it's I think they should have went with Phil To be totally honest I don't think D'Antonio Was the right, you know, call But that's my personal opinion I think time will tell with that But They're not looking any better Than they were with Mike Brown Right now to me I think they're looking way better Than they were with Mike Brown And I think the The protest of a good team Is always on the road And I'm just happy they did You know, they put the ass-whooping On Dallas Because that's the payback Yeah, but Dallas sucks I mean, yeah Yeah Kirk's not in the lineup You know, you went Sacramento I mean, that's a That's a tough loss Like, if you're really trying To be a playoff team You're losing to teams like Sacramento Yeah, but you also lost To the Grizzlies And not by that much, either Well, the Grizzlies Are a good team this year Yeah The Grizzlies are, like A really good team They could be at the top Of the Western Conference By the end of the year Absolutely They're Possibly the best team In the Western Conference Right now The Clippers I think Record-wise They might be up there One or two Yeah, and we'll talk about that later When we talk about the Clippers as well Because they're on the losing streak As well So, Memphis is definitely I mean That was a measured loss If we were going to lose Any game On that road Trip It definitely Definitely Would have been against the Grizzlies Sacramento I didn't see that happening Yeah, that was If you have a terrible performance All around Then I mean, Kobe can't I mean, the purpose of people Like Like Like Dwight coming in Is to relieve the pressure From Kobe Not for Have to make him Score 30 You have He has to score 30 In order for us to win Yeah, Kobe's not supposed to be The MVP type guy this year He's not He's supposed to be Relieving You know, 22 But guys just going around him Type guy Yeah No, I feel you on that But for some reason It's not working out I don't know I'm always a big person In terms of Thinking that it takes a year To mesh So, we'll see Maybe that's That's a true point of the case But Right now It's just not working out I don't know I don't know why It's coaching or I completely agree That it's a whole One year thing to mesh Yeah Like When Powell Came in You know You went to the championship But you lost to the Celtics And they looked better than you But the next year You come back And you looked way better than them Because Powell and Kobe Were working off of each other And they looked good together And Yeah And just I think about sports In terms of like Where chemistry really has Really matters Oh, we have a caller Hey You're in the sports booth Please tell us who you are Hello Hello Fish Who is this? It's Porter What's up, guy? I knew it I knew it Who's that? It's Porter Porter is not in the studio Because you're where You're where, Porter? I'm out in the East Village In the East Village Is that Toluca Lake? No I'm out in New York, you guys I just talked to this I'm out at the bar right now I got a question for you Do it What are you guys discussing? What are we discussing? Because you're not listening Obviously not What do you want us to be discussing? We're just talking about The Lakers road trip How the first two games Were pretty unimpressive Well, the Memphis game Was something we said Okay, we saw that But the loss in Sacramento Was not one that we thought Was a good loss The great performance From Dallas But something that I was Going to bring up Is what do we do with Powell? Because Powell is just Not performing And I don't think He's really meshing well With the new system You know, you just got to In D'Antoni's system He's, you know, he's got to You know, he's farther away From the basket He's not liking it very much But I think there will be You know, there will be Some adjustments made He'll be happy It's just The transition's difficult for him And I mean, you see The benefits though Antoine Jamison Is having a great Few games here And I think that's good For our bench I mean, a lot of people Are talking about Powell getting traded But I think that's just Spoiled Laker fans You know how we are That happens every year It happens every year Trade Powell Trade everyone, you know But he'll be okay D'Antoni's going to be The smart guy He'll tweak it And I think he'll be okay I don't know What do you guys think? Well, I like I like Because I see Powell As a definite finesse player And he's the guy who can He can knock down Those mid-brain shots If he can knock down 75% of those shots Awesome Right But My beef Is all I've been with Powell Is that he's Pogasoft And in the post He gets bullied around And he's You're a big man You're supposed to Get in those rebounds You're supposed to Bull your way into that Into the Get a foul called You know? I mean, the way I look at it is Is that I'm a Bulls fan And we had six great years Six championships You're a junk Okay, thank you Thank you very much And But I think Porter's kind of On point with this In terms of having Spoiled Laker fans Let's remember The reason why you won These last two championships Okay, Kobe's MVP Was Powell Gasol So for me To say Oh, let's trade this guy Who, in my opinion Is the reason why You won two championships Because it wasn't happening Without Powell I'm not saying that's true I'm not saying he was The main person in the deal Because it was Kobe But he wasn't far behind It was like Shaq-Kobe Type stuff But Kobe was the leader In this one So You know, it's hard for me To hear him say trade Powell I don't think you need A trade Powell I think with him and Dwight I think it's a perfect mix But You know, for some reason Like Porter said I think it spoiled Laker fans Who just You know Want the here and the now And either way You're going to make playoffs That's all that matters In basketball Because there's no buys So it doesn't really matter Okay So as long as you make The playoffs, you're good You don't want to play The Thunder first round But You know, if you get that You know, six, three seed You know, like Who cares? Really Yeah, and when Nash comes back Which is a big thing You already mentioned It's going to I think he's going to be able To operate off the pick and roll A lot better Absolutely 100% Just Yeah You'll be getting Great passes Deeper and closer To the To the To the hoop And that's what you That's what I want to see From Powell Is that, hey You're going to have Open mid Range shots But you're going to know When to run And get those And know what to do When you hit the ball When you're in the paint, man It's just hard The other thing too You know, we take for granted His passing You know, when Nash gets in there And talk about the pick and roll You know, he can dish it To Howard as well Or Kobe in the corner You know There's so many other things That, you know Are going to be opened up Because of that, so Well, another thing That's kind of Irking me a little bit Is the amount of shots Kobe is taking Because he's taking Again Around 22 21 shots And that's when his Like, percentage drops I mean In the last game In the game Versus Dallas I think In which they won He was like 9 for 22 9 for 22 Is a terrible Shooting percentage And that's not The numbers that he's Been putting up In the beginning Of the season And again That's because he's forcing He's forced to activate The ball a lot A lot more Well, I mean Talking about that I mean I really like The win Against Dallas That was a great Team game The bench showed up And that looks More like the team I want to see play Every day Or every time they play I thought that was great But like you said You know Kobe shooting percentage That game Not the best But I feel like Overall, you know He's been very efficient I think maybe even The most efficient Of his career So I'll take those You know Two or three games Where he's You know Doing the Kobe thing And just say Well, you know what It's going to happen I mean He can't You know Have a great percentage Every night But I like that he feels You know Comfortable And I mean Honestly If If Pow and Pow are doing their job You know These are rebounds We should be getting anyway So let's Just chuck him up Kobe I'm totally waiting For the rebound game To come in as well Because I can't begin To tell you how much How important rebounds Are in the game Because there's a lot Of percentage of shots That just don't go in And what happens Is we're just Giving away Offensive rebounds Zach Randolph Had about What 11 rebounds By the half Five of them Were offensive rebounds You know And that means You're not You're not looking Not to get that ball He's a hustler Yeah He's a hustler And what you'll see A lot of the time Is Dwight's positioning He's always under the hoop Ready to get that pass When a shot goes in He gets boxed out And he's not going To find that You have another Big man in Pow And he's always Super far away From the From the From the hoop But you know Who's Producing a lot With the rebounds Is totally Jameson Oh yeah Yeah he is He's cleaning up the board But people forget That Jameson On other teams Has been a number one Number two player You know Number one option Number two option Especially when he was On Cleveland Like they I mean When LeBron was there That was one of the best Players they brought Over for him So I mean he's no chump And he's coming Off your bench That's a good You're talking about Anton Jameson Yeah That's what we're Talking about sir Yeah Yeah he's good Oh is he Oh that's I thought so as well But I didn't know for sure But now that you say he is I feel a lot better Yeah now that I said it It's true So there you go Oh it's like Facebook good So I want to listen in And I was going to Listen to you guys And my phone died I'm wandering around You know the city here But That's always a good thing I wanted to talk Really quick If I could I know it's not NFL But the Patriots And Jets That was cute I mean What needs to be said About it I mean it was like I think Eldrick said it was like A highlight blooper reel For the Jets I mean do you want A brownie patch Do you want like a pat On the back Like you did it You beat the Jets No and here's why I think because Jacob What's that Did you watch the game Did you watch the game Jacob No I was Oh my god You have You have to watch that game No it was watched But like Sarcastically The thing everybody Keeps saying is You guys beat the Jets Big deal And I know it's not A big deal Because they suck But the important thing Is that the last time We played them We went into overtime At our house We now went Into their stadium And made them look like A college team really And not a good one I'm not talking about Alabama I'm talking about like I don't know A bad one Pick one We embarrassed them Like that's what I'm That's what we need to do You know our defense Is looking good You know Gronkowski's hurt But he'll be back In a month And you know Playoff time I think we're looking Really strong And I like our chances Against any of You know Houston You know Indy or Baltimore I'm gonna stop you man I'm gonna stop you Because we have another caller Who's joining us up here In the sports booth Cheer Cheer for Old Notre Dame Yeah guys It's your boy Lou Oh no Coming off my A little bit of a hangover From celebrating The Irish victory That was quite The win Sweet Lou You're on the line And we also have Poor Poor Poor Poor Poor You're still there right Hey sweet Lou I got I just got a newspaper today It Mike Trout Still didn't win the MVP I said Yeah that Actually wasn't my argument Who's this guy That's Porter Oh the Porter Yeah That Were you like Paying attention During that show Porter Or What are you like You just kind of Zone out most of the day I didn't say Mike Trout Was I said that you I said that he should have been But I'm here to talk about Notre Dame Not about Miss deeds of the past So I'm sorry I thought I thought I thought talking sports news Was talking about current About the date events Not a Not like Porter's Purse that he carries around town Oh god Oh yeah Yeah Before you call me Sweet Lou again Porter You might want to check That purse back home Oh man He checks it in there I don't talk He checks it in there I can't hear anything You're saying sweet Lou What So Notre Dame Stays in first place And clinches their spot In the BCS Bowl I'm happy dog And just like we called it They're there They have to be in there They're happy right now They're happy Yeah there's It would be like the worst Crime I think ever committed In college football Oh no they're in They're in the game They're in Yeah they have to be in there All they had to do was beat USC It didn't matter by one point No matter what Like all they had to do Was beat USC The victory was all that matters At that point And I am super pumped Because I'm I'm obviously Gentlemen Gentlemen Gentlemen Gentlemen And Lou I have a question So at the end of the Notre Dame USC game We had a A nine point Differential What do you think about USC Going for the touchdown And not the field goal I couldn't believe it But I'm a mathematics guy I don't know how coaches think I'm I'm a type of guy That thinks like If you can get one of them now Take it now Because there wasn't Much time left in the game In either way You were going to have to Get that ball back So at least take the The guaranteed points And give yourself An opportunity Yeah I agree as well It depends on the situation But in that one For sure I would have told you Yeah to address To address Miss Porter's question I would say Yeah I would say I would have I would have took the point To myself I mean it's always hard to say Because you know None of us have been Head coaches In big games like that Where we could say Well this is how I would have gone I did coach A little league Intramural team But Yeah I was going to say Other than that I think most of us Probably agree with Jake In that situation Where like We couldn't believe Yeah I mean You know Like simple math Like you need You need nine And even if you get This touchdown Who's to say You know And of course The guy dropped the pass It just seemed like One of the worst One of the worst decisions I've seen in a while Go down No I agree I didn't understand it And I didn't know If like maybe I had a beer or two Too many And maybe that was the reason But you know I'm a Notre Dame fan And I wasn't Complaining Yeah I was I was upset about the call I mean we stopped him Three straight times There was no reason For me to think We wouldn't stop him Before it Like Oh yeah Yeah I was As good as our defense Has been this year It's like They were just locked down Yesterday it was great Do you think Teo might have won The Heisman Because of that interception And now Get out of here I still don't know If they'll win Defensive players Don't have a great chance Of winning No they don't That was a big play In a big game It is It was I think that Shielded for him Actually Right I thought the same thing When he did that Yeah Who's that I would love him To win it I would absolutely Love him to win it I just don't I mean I I don't know If that wins it for him If there's a defensive player That would have won it In the last 10 years He's definitely One of those guys Who would I think Jacob too The other thing is You know You look at a guy like that You know He has a story It's like the R.A. Dickey thing He has a story You know They like that They want They want to Award this guy And even though He might not be The Heisman Trophy winner They'll give it to him Because of his You know This stop story Hey Mike You know what's funny about that I've been saying that all week I was like It's exactly Like the perfect analogy Is R.A. Dickey You know And it's not a bad thing It's not a bad thing It's not a bad thing You know Sometimes a story Sometimes a story Makes the award So like You know That's why I think A guy like Tao Could win it this year Because the story Makes that award Just like R.A. Dickey And it's very hard For a defensive player To get it So why not give it To that guy Who's on the number one Winning team That didn't look like They were going to be there At the beginning of the year That has his whole side story Going along with him Yeah I mean that's not An invalid point at all The only problem is Like those are Two entirely different Like kind of voting committees Oh absolutely So it really depends On how much stock They put into that story Is you know Because it's only Past Heisman winners I'm not saying It's going to go down the same I'm just saying It's along the same lines In terms of Yeah yeah yeah Definitely I mean do you know Who the last person Defensive player To win the Heisman was It was Woodson Charles Woodson On Michigan Charles Woodson And then probably Desmond Howard Before that He was the last nominated Not Desmond Howard No Before Woodson You have to go All All the way back To 1961 When Ernie Davis Got it Ernie Davis Ernie Davis Was a linebacker Yeah he was a halfback But he was also a linebacker Okay Yeah I saw I saw the movie Porter don't worry The odds are against them In that category But I'll tell you Another interesting But that's the type of year It should happen though Is a year like this I'll give you Another interesting stat You know What team Has the most Heisman Trophy winners It has to be Ohio State Or something Or Notre Dame Is it Notre Dame? I'm gonna go Notre Dame I didn't know that Notre Dame And Ohio State Are tied I said Ohio State They both have seven I said Ohio State I wasn't wrong You weren't wrong You just You know You forgot to ask me I should have read my team A little harder Slash Slash And Ohio State Let's talk about them Being 12-0 this year Yeah they're having Urban Meyer is an evil genius Yeah In the AP poll I think they're Number four But I think Like an ESPN poll Yeah They're like Urban Meyer is actually Gonna coach the Chiefs Next year When we get Geno Smith They were talking Yeah man Yeah your contacts Are amazing I wanna know Where your sources Are coming from That's a wild joke I don't think Urban Meyer's Heart can hold up Like an NFL season Not for the KC NFL season Alright Yeah We're going back to Our discussion Of last week Now that Notre Dame Has secured Their spot in the BCS Who do you think They play? I'm sticking to it I'm gonna say Georgia Beach Bama And Georgia plays In the game Okay Cause in the mix It's us I think South Florida Ohio Georgia and Bama And Bama seems to be The favorite right now But you're sticking to Georgia I'm gonna stick to Georgia Just cause I picked them Last week But I mean it's obviously Gonna be the winner Of that game Yeah It has to be It's Alabama Alabama has to Has to play them Sweet Lou They have to? You know I'd really I'd really like Us to have to play Georgia And National Tile Game But I'm just gonna Have to go with Bama I mean There's just still Such a scary presence Out there Do you think Any of these other I mean obviously I think Alabama Would make it And I think if anyone Were to beat Notre Dame It probably would be Alabama But I don't I don't believe Georgia would be able To do it Or Ohio State And I'm all about Seeing a more Competitive And exciting game I mean historically You wanna see Notre Dame and Bama Like that's a That's a good thing Great historic game Right? Like I mean Notre Dame hasn't Been there in years But they're historically A good team Against you know Who's the team That's been there In the recent years And also has The longevity In terms of winning Championships over You know decades Along with it In Bama So I mean Bama and Notre Dame Would be a I mean in two Defenses Yeah they're two Classic franchises Programs not franchises Programs They might as well Be franchises I know I always get into That argument That You gotta start Paying college players Or something You know A big incentive Because there's so much So much money Being made off of them I think everyone here Agrees with you on that Yeah But you're not There's no way to do that Yeah Because the The most money Would always be The best player I just want like 300 bucks to go To some banquet But don't worry About wearing I mean yeah It's probably It's probably not feasible To actually pay them But do we really Have to like Get on them Just for receiving You know A couple of gifts Here and there Or for example What happened To Ohio State guys Like they They got in trouble For selling their own Property I mean on Hanukkah I know I take gifts But that's just me Well the thing That I would love to see Is to have Games that are shown On there Through ESPN Have money from that Go to their programs Because a lot Of A lot of A lot of Games get shown On ESPN3 And you also have The barrage Of random games On Fox Sports ESPN And all the other Broadcasting MTVU does Those games Or any network Exactly Exactly So you get out But I mean That's the whole I want to see my kid Play thing And I know he's Going to be on TV You want him Telling me that He loves his mama You know that type of deal You gotta love your mama You gotta love your mama Or your daddy You can't be a football player If you don't like him I love both of my parents Equally I'm out you know So that's really Interesting guys So Bama Notre Dame We can only Speculate until I'm assuming next week Because I mean Notre Dame was the only Team in position To clinch This week I mean in all Honesty I mean Unless somehow Some fluke Of something happens And Florida gets in there It's whoever wins The Georgia-Bama game Yeah It has to be Since fate would Have their 2-3 So it'd have to be Like either You know Georgia barely won And Florida scraped Whoever they played And somehow Moved ahead You know But in all honesty It's probably going to be Whoever wins Georgia-Bama So It has to be The outcome of that game Yeah President Obama Said that You know He's taking responsibility Or credit for Playoffs being considered Into like The college realm None of us have been Saying that for years I know right Are you president? Are you president? No So I think I feel better About him doing anything But that Like just I think you have a country To run dude Hey man That's a lot of influence Have you ever followed His brackets For the Oh yeah He's always Top percentile bro Yeah You gotta give that Some respect brother He's calling the game Somehow I don't know He has that power He's a president Yeah He definitely He definitely Doesn't follow tubes Yeah So if There was a If there was a playoffs Do you think It would stay one and two? Because I mean We already have The two and three seed Playing each other And that doesn't happen In the playoffs Unless they're No it would Technically in this one If you're the top four teams That make it Yeah You know what I think it does? I think it allows teams Like TCU Boise State On years that they make runs Get in there And that's really What I think the playoffs Is about I really think the best Case scenario Would be eight teams But I think four is In the step In the right direction I'm just so angry That they made it For such a long period of time Because I think it's like Ten years Until they can change that But at least it's something In the right direction There needs You know you need to be Playing for something The reason why we like NFL so much Is the underdog story The reason why we like The NCAA tournament Is the underdog story So when the one Always faces the two It becomes boring to people And when your team Gets one loss It becomes boring You know because your team Gets one loss You're like I'm out Of the national championship run You have to go undefeated That's a lot of pressure But there's a lot Less parity in college football Yeah Yeah But there's always A few teams That are undefeated I mean I agree with you There's always the excitement Of knowing that hey There's a chance Like how about this We all knew the Patriots At 18-0 Were the best team That year right Yeah But it was fun To see the Giants beat them It wasn't fun I don't know what you're talking about But on paper It was you know We all knew You were the best team And you know That's the thing In college football Is usually the best team wins That's not fun We like the underdog story That's why we like The NCAA tournament You know last year Was kind of a boring tournament Why? Because Kentucky won They were the one seed And we thought they'd win And it's not supposed To go like that You know we like The underdog story And that's why I think You know In this situation That's why I just think It's you know I agree with you The thing is You have the problem though Of you'll always have Those lower ranked teams Who There'll still be discrepancies I think among the lower ranks now Instead of the threes and fours Getting upset It'll be the fives and sixes Getting upset Yeah but at least There's enough teams Who'll get opportunities At this point I'm just saying You'll never You'll never like Squash that whole But most likely If you go undefeated If you go undefeated You'll be in that top four Most likely correct? You know absolutely I'm not saying At least now I'm not saying I have a problem With the playoff system Yeah but at least now You have a guarantee If you go undefeated At least you get in That playoff system That's fair enough for me Because teams like Boise State and TCU When they went undefeated And had no chance In the national championship And then go out And beat Oklahoma Who's a good team That made no sense to me They had no shot At the national championship Yeah So that's why I think It's nice to get this At least a step In the right direction Even though it's not All the way there Alright I'm glad that we Started stepping to College football Because I was like Hmm I don't know We'll be able to Talk that much Or that long about it Next week we'll see We'll pull out our Possible Heisman candidates We'll see who wins There's a bunch of them There is a bunch There's no clear cut I would take out All the defensive players And promise you That's probably not gonna happen Johnny Pogba I'll probably put Teo in there And put him Number one favorite Hands down I bet you would Alright So we're about Yeah I'm biased too So I can't say anything Teo the yes Okay I guess I'll just be Discussing with me The only unbiased person here So we're gonna Take a quick break guys If you guys wanna Stay on the line Be our guest If not call back in Just listen in It's all good okay You're in the sports booth We'll be right back We're gonna take like a Like a three four minute break Cause I got to go to the restroom And I know Jacob Guys is gonna do the same thing Yeah Alright I'll just call back in Alright Alright Now this game is bad 24-7 Thanks for watching! We'll see you next time! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! Peace out! That would be That would be one I mean That would be one for the ages If you have the Lakers In the championship Whether they win or they lose It's always High end You know what it's like It's like We were talking about this This weekend actually It's like when the Giants Played the Patriots That one year You know Either way That it went It was historic Because it was The most You know The biggest underdog In NFL history Against you guys winning Or a team that went 19-0 Either way We were seeing history I think if we saw The Heat and the Lakers It'd be along the same lines Yeah You know We'd be seeing history Regardless of who won It just sucks Because in that situation The Lakers would be The underdog for sure Oh they'd have to be Yeah Even in all cylinders Yeah They'd have to be I mean At this point If you're facing Anybody against the Heat Is going to be an underdog And as much as I As much as I You know Love I just think Eric Spolstra's Now I give him credit For being a coach Because I mean I saw He used to be Working in the video room Yeah I was an assistant And then I mean within All within eight years Became a head coach And the funny thing is Everybody wanted to drop him After he got into the championship Yeah You know what I'm saying Like oh get rid of him He didn't do enough He went to the championship You know what I'm saying It's hard I don't care who you have On your team It's hard to take that team To the championship In their first year And he did that Yeah The very next year he won You have three of the biggest Egos in the game right now I mean you have LeBron who's head He could barely keep his head up I'm sure Yeah You got Dwayne Wade You've seen On camera Live Who I think has given up The most in this whole situation Yeah Having spats And then you have Bosh as well Who can be a princess A lot of the time Yeah I mean Bosh is just A weird cat Like he's I mean it's known Even between them That he's kind of The different guy You know he's not like He's not like Kobe and LeBron are friends Bosh is like He's a friend But he's more of like A dorky outsider Kind of guy You know He's the guy we know But it works It does I mean and it won a ship And it took one year And they got it done But I'd love To see the Lakers heat I mean I don't think It's going to happen But I mean Just from a historic value We need to see Kobe LeBron once We saw Jordan Magic Like regardless How it happened So like I'm just glad It's finally not happening On Christmas Because I'm tired Of seeing the Lakers Lose on Christmas I think until the last Three Christmases They've played like The Heat Or the Cavs Or whatever team LeBron's on Whatever LeBron was on I'm like damn it I just don't want Can we get like a team I'm glad this year They're not playing each other They're What were they playing I think they're playing The Knicks This year Now that's a tough one though too Yeah I mean I'm just not easy By no feet But I'm like Hey man Lisa's not fucking LeBron James I mean whoever Honestly Whoever plays the Lakers On Christmas Day Come out to play I mean that's just That's more of like On you guy On you thing You know Closer to Christmas Day I'm having a theme on the show Who's going to have The ugliest shoes Because that's when they come out Is that when they do it The ugliest sneakers In the NBA To ever be released Come out Like lime green colors I'm like what Who's wearing these Orange shoes Man I haven't seen Orange shoes Since I played NBA Jam Oh my god Orange shoes ain't bad Okay Whatever man So speaking Since we were talking About The The heat Ray Allen Actually had a really great game To finish it off Against the Cavs Killer shooting lights On the last two minutes That's what really killed You know What was it The hay that broke The The The Hay that broke the camel's back Yeah something The Whatever You guys didn't know The stack The No man I don't remember though You're thinking about Needing on the haystack Whatever dude I know what I'm talking about Either way The stone No it's not the stone It's something you really like Either way Ray Allen This is lights out shooting I mean it's just his career Of shooting anyways Do you think He would be the running For six man of the year Because that's his role Right now No right now Right now Because I think I think right now Runaway is What's his name On the Clippers Crawford Jamal Crawford Yeah By far Right now Not even close Well right now I think so but The Clippers I mean he could be I mean The thing is with me Is like I think the Heat Are a lot more legitimate Than the Clippers So I think In terms of legitimacy I think Ray Allen being on the Heat Is a lot more legitimate Than Crawford being On the Clippers But in terms of A six man statistically It'd have to go to Crawford At this point You were saying Lou No I was just saying It's just It's too It's too much To It's too hard To not see the The Clipper front office Not doing them in somehow Like Donald Sterling Has probably been One of the Worst owners In the NBA by far Oh come on I mean it's really easy To see him Blowing this team up Somehow And just ruining Any Clippers Any Clippers fans Hopes for A generation to come That's true Yeah Well I think Jamal Crawford's up there I think Ray I mean It's a little bit early Right now But I can see Ray Allen Totally being Sixth night of the year He has to be In the talk But the fact that What's his name's Coming into The Clippers And basically Being a starter On a second team And killing it out there You know I think Ray Allen's Definitely I think In the long run Ray Allen's more important To his team Because I think They'll go further Than the Clippers will But statistically You probably have to go Crawford But you know Like you said It's a long season Yeah You know So it could change The one move I'm just interested For the Clips To see the Clippers You know See how they deal with Like there's gonna be Two things But the one that's For sure gonna Happen is Chauncey Billups Coming back We'll see We'll see what happens With you know Jamal Crawford's Minutes We'll see If his point Production's the same Because he's gonna Have different people On the court With him Because you can't Say You can't say Big shot Yeah You're not gonna Say no to Big shot To Billups You know That's big shot Yeah So you can't We'll all see How that pans out And my other thing That I'm waiting for In Clipper fans Is like no It's not gonna happen Is you guys have A bunch of injury prone Players Especially Chris Paul I don't think There has been One season He plays completely Through Without being hurt At one point Of the season or not So he sat out I forgot how many Games last season As well With a thumb An ankle Something always Hurts with him And he got Blake Griffin The same way as well So I will see When those things happen And if they don't You know Because I'm always Up for being wrong It's not like I'm always right You're right a lot though Yeah but I'm right I think So let's move on A little bit To the NFL We already talked about The Patriots crushing The Jets If you guys have not Seen the Mark Sanchez fumble You guys need to get Your butts to a computer I'm serious It is the funniest thing I've ever seen I heard about it I felt really bad For him actually Just because it was That embarrassing Was there some Sympathy for him I mean from Lou I guess I mean I was too busy Really like laughing Like a giddy little girl When I saw it That's just one of those Things that you don't Like When does that ever happen When does your When does your lineman Get pushed right into you Yeah that's the one Off his defensive lineman Did he really push him Into him That's the other thing Okay Well Wilford Wilford did kind of Like angle the guy And like And drive him right Into Sanchez As he was making the slide Okay I'll be really good At the video Because I was too busy Just laughing at him Face first Into his lineman's ass And then I'm like Oh god It was just It was terrible dude So and it was just A terrible Like the second quarter Of hell For the Jets to Have a What is that Back to back fumbles I don't know how many How much Tom Brady threw that For that round I mean That quarter I know there were Five runs in that quarter What was that I know it was five touchdowns And one was at least defensive Yeah so But one I know that Shane Vereen One was considered a huge one Yeah Oh the Interception There it is That's the other one Interception And then the Danny Woodhead Carry into the touchdown Yeah No it was Edelman Edelman yeah Yeah but Either one That's about I think he had three throws And then two defensive Yeah No it was They were only a touchdown away With an extra point From being the best quarter Of all time Yeah Because 41's been hit twice Yeah So it was a pick Two fumbles And then a run Yeah there was some special teams Like big special teams I was super pumped Because I picked the Jets Or the New England's defense That game Okay good I was like oh 0-0 Like it's going to be A low scoring game All of a sudden I look back It's like 35-7 I'm like what Like Do you think there's any Quick fixes for The Jets this season I mean that That This The game against the Patriots The second time Yeah fire Rex The quick fix No Rex out Ryan Yeah Fire him I think he's done I think he's absolutely No I think he's done I just don't think that'll like Him, Andy Reid There's a lot of guys Yeah I don't think that'll Garner any wins This season Well Yeah they can't even They can't even catch up In the race if they wanted to It's obvious I mean it's even I think Tim Tebow Going to the Jets Is probably one of the Worst moves ever Because it split up The fans as well They started They started chanting Tebow time In the middle of the game And then Like another side The other side of the stadium Started booing The people That started saying Tebow time It's just hard to have Tebow on any team right now Yeah Because like A lot of people Are going to want him starting Because they think He has some kind of value Which you know Maybe he does I don't know I don't personally see it But he did do well With Denver last year So you have to give him Credit for that So you know I mean I think the Jets Are about the best of a team He could be on right now Because I really do think Mark Sanchez Isn't that good And I think it's proven Right now So why not give him A shot the last four games This season See what you're working With for next year That happened last season Though and I didn't Like that Because he got a lot Of credit He only had one Impressive win In my eyes Tebow? Yeah And that's when He beat the Broncos I think Is that who He was on the Broncos Who did he beat? Steelers? Yeah when he beat The Steelers Okay Because he got that One pass to tonight And that was great Yeah Well I mean It's difficult Because the thing is They were a 1-4 team And then they made The playoffs You know so it's like You know I understand The fact I agree I don't think he's A good quarterback But you can't Necessarily say That you know The critics Still out there Basically You know like You can't necessarily Say that he couldn't Be a great quarterback Because he showed it Last year that he could be You know just He's a very particular Type of guy Who needs to be On a particular Type of team And there can't be Any quarterback Controversy He needs to be The number one On a team And that's the only Way he's going to work Maybe he needs Like a Jim Harbaugh To kind of get his head Right I don't know Yeah I mean I think I honestly think He'd be great on the Jets If they started him Full time I really do He didn't play Last game Because of an injury Oh yeah but they Suited him Yeah That was like A big controversy Like why'd you Suit him But whatever Either way I mean that's That's just the big I think it's one of Those things where You just let him You are not Looking at the Fantasy scores Oh I was looking At the fantasy Dude Don't look Porter beat me Porter beat me man I can't This is driving me I lost my undefeated Record I feel you brother Oh man What Oh I'm sorry I lost one game finally I know I hurt I hurt Being great is tough Shut up Oh wow A lot of pressure A lot of pressure In being the champ Yeah man You can't always Just be the best I hope you guys Saw this game So the Redskins Versus the Cowboys I did Enjoy Yeah I did watch that game And I'm not I'm not a hater Against the Cowboys I actually have no Beef towards them I thought Both the first two games Were spectacular Thanksgiving football If I only get to Watch one games You know Because you know You wake up at 10 o'clock On a Sunday morning You watch a lot of games If there's one game I have to watch Those were two great games That I got to watch Minus your game But the first two I would have been fine With you missing the game As long as you saw the fumble I had all I mean your game Your game was not fun To watch after five minutes In this segment Yeah if you If you made it to halftime I would have I stopped watching If the stuffing Didn't kick in by the end Then you had real problems Yeah You had to get that Combo toast That was one One impressive Impressive I can't say that But how great Were those games? What did you think About that call by Schwartz With the replay With the throw of the flag Early I didn't understand Why So they couldn't review it Because of that? No yeah There's some rule Like it's not reviewable If you throw an illegal flag Or something Blah blah blah But what was illegal About it? That he threw it Because all All All scoring touchdowns Are reviewable Oh so he didn't wait Until it was reviewed He just threw it Yeah he just threw it Oh okay Bill of eyes Or whatever it might be I don't know Yeah it wasn't That's It wasn't I mean it was a great The thing I like the most Do you think that's What lost the game though? No I'm not one to believe That one One thing like that When it comes down To overtime though Yeah I can see that Especially with the new Overtime rules as well Yeah I mean it is tough That's a tough move It is a tough move I mean when they talk To most Most even You know like retired Coaches about this They all kind of Tell you the same thing Something bad like that Happens you just gotta Suck it up and move on Yeah That's true So yeah With the whole Robert Griffin And Tony Romo Comparison I'm just gonna shout out The numbers for you guys So the D The D stepped up For the Redskins for sure Oh they both had numbers Yeah Oh no Yeah So Romo Like in terms of consistency And like accuracy Robert Griffin the third He threw 20 for 28 Yeah but Tony Romo Had numbers 3-11 But And he got four tuds You know I mean he got picked off once Sacked off a couple times Whatever But Tony Romo It was like 460 4-41 Yeah He threw for 4-41 It was the second most yards In a Thanksgiving Day game Yeah You know who threw the The third most Matt Stafford earlier in the day Yeah Yeah Impressive performance But none of the top three Have won the Thanksgiving game Yeah It was like Troy Aikman Was number one Yeah I know Aikman Sick numbers So Tony But Romo Was gunning it out I mean he threw 37 For 37 out of 62 Well I've always thought That Romo gets kind of The short end of the stick He does I think that team Is a lot worse Than they are At the quarterback position Than they think Like their problems Aren't at quarterback It's everywhere else Yeah there's a lot of I've seen a lot of confusion I mean he threw About 4,000 yards last season It's not like he's a chump Yeah he's not He has an arm In accuracy as well Yeah I think I think sometimes He's mentally His mental Like tenacity Kind of gets in Like you know Not taken for granted Yeah He's weak Or whatever In that area In his leadership As well But you also have You know Des Bryant Yeah One of the princesses Of the league Oh who needs a babysitter Yeah that guy Yeah And then you got people Running the wrong routes Which happens all the time He had a game though Yeah he had He had a good game too Yeah did he get his Bottle on the sideline By his two No but he did get He did get kind of Punked by Oh god what was his name He's D'Angelo Hall I think D'Hall Punkton Yeah D'Hall's a thug though Like he slapped him Across the face When the ref wasn't looking And then Des Bryant Was like about To go For the Like just a straight Colcock But he pulled back The slap across the face Man it's like The handkerchief to the face Did you see the fight today With the Raiders and the I did Yeah Yeah That was just silly Yeah the Raiders Was like Dumb people Yeah Oh you mean like the Chiefs No You mean Geno Smith Sorry Geno Smith For a Chiefs fan Trying to talk about my team Oh my god What was your team again He's a Raider Don't tell me I'm a Raiders fan I just want to I just want to hear you say Cause it's so funny Junk sitting next to you His name is Pukwemelu His name is Pukwemelu How are you How are you Yeah Hey It's You know what I liked a lot How the Raiders looked Last season I thought they were To pick it up this season I just don't know what happened And you're not Well they changed coaches again Yeah you're not gonna have that Oh did they Yeah Again Oh well Yeah Carson Palmer though Third year straight Yeah It happens It happens for you guys There was two more Big moves here And I hate this guy Matt Ryan Squeaks by The Tampa Bay Bucks An impressive game for him Cause this was really tight They win by one point 24-23 It's a hot Tampa Bay team They were on a four game streak Yeah This is the second game though Where he barely Squeaks by a win No You need to win this game This game he only had the one pick And Tampa Bay really just Has been hot lately Yeah But yeah last week was Absolutely despicable Yeah so last week was rough too And then Yeah Even Actually it's not I take it back I think it's three in a row Well not counting their loss Yeah But they played the Cowboys And that was a pretty close game as well And they've had one other close game That they won by a field goal And I'm I'm blanking on it I think it was against the Redskins Yeah it was something like that No it was with the Raiders Raiders They only won by a field goal That makes it two more Cause the Raiders was a field goal as well And they played someone else And Matt Ryan was famous Cause if you read his lips He says get the F off my field I can't remember Who they played though That cocky guy I don't remember that game Either way One of them cocky football players This was an impressive game But how How long do you think they can keep this up Cause these games are getting closer and closer I mean they're not gonna They're gonna really need that first round bye In the In the NFC In order to get Go deep I think They're gonna run into a lot of problems Especially if they have to see Green Bay I would say Or even Even if New York pulls it out And gets in there I think they're gonna Have problems with that team as well I think they're two wins away from clinching Anyways Um Especially Yeah they definitely They need that Because As of right now They're not a playoff team Despite of how well they've been doing I have them I have them out in the first round Regardless of who they play in the NFC No I don't know It's tough cause They've been in this position before They were the ones here before And if we recall You know the Packers came in there and beat them But the Packers also went on to win the Super Bowl So it's kind of a Oxymoron I guess in that sense It's definitely the demon on the shoulder They gotta get rid of Yeah I mean The thing is I've been saying all year They're like the heat to me Of like Last year Like I've already seen this regular season You know I want to see them in the playoffs I'm not really Concerned And at this point No I wouldn't say they're coming out of the NFC I would put the San Francisco ahead of them I would put the Giants ahead of them I'd put the Packers ahead of them Before I would pick the Falcons to come out Regardless of their record And I think those are the teams that they'd be playing Yeah and I think they'll lose to them Yeah Unless the Seahawks You know But I don't think the Seahawks Are supposed to threat to them Yeah To be honest I don't know actually Cause like I said I've seen the Seahawks Yeah the Seahawks beat us Beat a Super Bowl team Well it depends where they play I think Seattle's become the new hardest Like field to To get a win in Yeah At least this year man Like I said They're the They're to me The giant killers of the Of the year What the lines were last year So And they lose I mean they lose to teams Like today they lost to To To Miami Yeah To the Dolphins So Yeah You know they lost to the Dolphins but they beat the Patriots And the Packers So That's That's one of those New season New season I mean the season in general Isn't making sense to me Maybe they just play Maybe they just play up To their competition I don't know I mean do you see the Chiefs They almost won Against the The Broncos Yeah I mean it was a close game You know It was only allowed Like 17 That's how much parity Is in the league this year 17 and 9 Yeah I think it was like Yeah 14-9 Something like that Yeah So you guys You guys allowed two touchdowns And we were up a lot of that game Yeah Or at least to a second quarter Yeah That's a lot of the game for us You always got Peyton Manning He's just so He's hard to deal with Yeah So Another big thing in the NFL And then we'll take our picture Of the week Houston gets their win In overtime For a second week in a row Big loss though Matt Forte out I think he rolled his ankle Might have broke it I didn't follow that enough So how big of a How big of a Of a loss is that Well I didn't buy it The Bears in the first place Being a contender Yeah I know They had the record But I didn't buy him Being a contender So this therefore Solidifies the fact That I don't think They're going to make it Far in the playoffs I put Forte With Houston Oh my god That's hilarious Are you talking about Yeah I was talking about I put Houston here First but then I forgot to I just read off my screen I didn't even realize I put Matt Forte up in here Yeah Forte Yeah Matt Forte You're saying the Bears Bears yeah Yeah I don't buy into them Regardless So to add Matt Forte On top of that I think that's the best Player on their team So I don't buy even Into them even further I think Cutler I think Cutler is by the way Is like another Tony Romo Where he He just gets a lot of A lot of shit For things that aren't really I totally disagree I think he's worse Than Tony Romo Alright No he has He has a much weaker Offensive line than Tony Romo He gets hit a lot more often Than Romo Probably Whatever he's doing To get wins is working though So Yeah Running out of time Quickly we're going to Take our picks So today The Packers are playing The Giants It's 10 to 31 right now Giants leading at the half Who do you guys have Winning this game I can't stray away From my pick Before the game When we go Packers Okay I picked And Jay's going to love this When he hears this I picked the Giants To win this game Did you Just because historically The Giants I mean it'd be real easy Right now to go Giants But I gotta stick to my Pre-game pick And I'll go I'll let you take it And then tomorrow The Cardinals play the Phillies The Phillies They play the Eagles The Cardinals No the Panthers The Panthers Carolina So I put Card and Philly So I went to baseball And Cardinals I'm going to go Philly Get some win finally On that one But it doesn't Same to anybody's job No I totally have Carolina winning Just because of Terrible Terrible streak That Philly's doing And I And I hope And I hope The Philly gets a win Because Carolina's not It's not saving anybody's job But I think Philly will win Yeah Alright So guys You've been in the sports booth Sweet sweet Lou Pecoy Malou Sweet sweet Lou Thank you so much For joining us for the show We appreciate it We'll be here next week
