Anything Goes Friday! Texans vs. Cowboys Preview

0:00This is Matt and Ross in the morning. Six o'clock at H.C.A.N. Good morning. It's Matt and Ross in the morning on Sports Talk 790. I'm my evidence wins. I'm the judge. I'm the jury and I am damn well the executioner. And the executioner says, I'm not using test to e-bike. That was your voice. It's good. We can't believe we had a top suit, e-my, truth or... That was not on the Abingo card. After game 162 of that year from him? Mhmm. Shout out JT. Appreciate him. I mean, at least he was passionate with it. He was. He was passionate back. What's his name is JT emi, I believe. Well, he opt in.

1:00Yeah, see well. Because he said he was not really thinking about that. Well, I'd be. First of all, athletes lie. He's counted that money. Yeah. By the way, we were doing the Michael McDonald's... Yes, we were. Everybody does a Michael McDonald. Did you see the story about Michael McDonald yesterday? Yeah, I guess he impregnated some groupie back in the day and he did get win adopted. I don't know if he had a groupie that young in his life. He was 14. Oh, I didn't realize I didn't see that part of the story. Yeah. So I recamped my previous statement. She was 14, he was 14. Oh, I didn't know that. Yep. Wow. Alright. Hmm. He was getting after it. I mean, that's not great. I mean, thankfully it was a nice story, but... That was a good for anyone. That was gracious. Huh. 14, I was thinking about basketball and pizza.

2:00You were thinking about some things, too. Bluebeard and Suzanne Summers and stuff like that. That's 14, 1990. 14 for me was eight. Well, I was thinking about the Astros 86 playoffs. That let me down. Kevin Bass raking out by Jesse Arosco. I thought about that. Yeah. Rockets won the Western Conference that year. Cotton candy. You were probably thinking about that. I think that's what we're seeing. It isn't anything goes Friday. Alright. Man, I peeled the curtain back at 5 past 6. I get it. Yeah, is this 6 o'clock secret? Do we have to play the secret music again? We're going to have the sounder. I have it actually right here from yesterday. Johnny, you're going to work on this next week. It's fine. It's all right here. And I... This probably will help me. And maybe when my wife gets home, it'll be easier. I cannot sleep straight through the night. Huh. And it's really starting to bother me a little bit.

3:00Well, yes, Matt. From a psychological standpoint, it will be a lot easier with your wife. It's probably easier for her too. When you're there. Yeah. As you're using each other's comfort zone, slash safe space in the middle of the night. Thank you very much. I appreciate the click and analysis. You get to sleep faster and you stay asleep. I mean, I'm getting up about... Now, to go to the bathroom, or just... It's literally waking up about every 75 minutes. Maybe you should get a heated body pillow. Hmm. And then get like a recording that says, not tonight. Yeah. You'll feel right at home. Wait me up when you're done. Or like me up when I'm... Okay. When you go, go. Yeah, yeah. Before you leave me hanging. Cover me up. I guess. I guess. I guess. Is that song about One Night Stands, by the way? Uh. Wait me up before you go. I don't know. Don't leave me hanging. Or I'm going to hang up the band. Okay. These are the 6 o'clock secrets. And I'm thinking about Melatine. I guess, sort of thinking about something. Because, last night was a tougher night. Uh, I have... Okay, since we were peeling the curtain bags. Please.

4:00I've taken Melatone a couple times. Very small dose. Because they have like these 10, 15, 20 milligrams. Yeah. You're supposed to like take one to three. Okay. Born into Google AI, which is... Sure. We're going to go with... And people are right. It makes me have weird dreams. So I'm worried about you. Oh, I don't want any part of that. part of that. So I'm worried about you on melatonin. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right. I'm not. It doesn't knock you out like PM, it just makes your body feel ready for sleep. And they describe it as taking your horse to water, but you still got to drink. You still got to sleep. You can't be like scrolling your phone. It's not going to knock you out. But it gets you in the sleepy mood. I'm that's not the issue. When like a 30 hits, I'm ready to go to sleep. I don't know that melatonin will help you sleep the night. I think it helps you get to sleep. But again, I'm not a doctor. But you're playing on the radio. I guess, hi, this is not medical advice from Ross. Google it and ask your physician, your primary care physician. So yeah, I'm just trying to figure that out. And we'll be fine, but it's just how the night terror has been. No dreams last night.

5:00It's bad. No, no, I don't want the rim sleep. You need dreams. Whatever, I'll do whatever it takes. But it's just, we've been doing this for months now. And I just cannot, about every 75 minutes I'm getting up. Okay, so, 75 minutes, 75. 75, 35. Maybe you need to like work out throughout the day. Get yourself a little more tired. Just go for a walk, like a three mile walk. Good deep run, maybe. I don't need you running. You can get shins, ones within two weeks. I feel like that feels fair. All right, good morning, everybody. We got a busy show for you on anything goes Friday, case in point here. 713-212-579. If you're a six-clock maniac, you want to come in and say hello to us. We are here for you. 713-212-579. We have the sounds of 630 coming up in about 20 minutes from now. Ross, you're rotten five. I'm going to give these to us on air clue. What? 750. 750. 750. Woo. All right. It's an hour and 40 to put that bad boy together. By the way, shout out the Browns.

6:01They were the number one rotten five team week one. And they're nowhere close to the rotten five. They're three and one. They beat the Steelers last night, 27 to 24. Best part of the game last night was Aaron Rodgers yelling at, yes, Mike McCarthy and Mike McCarthy calling him a name under his breath. Yes, he did. It's two words. The last word is whole. Yes. And what you think, Aaron Rodgers would say to him in terms of getting the play call in fast enough and swaring about that is what you would think is completely accurate. Yes. The Braves beat the Phillies last night in the wild card. Uh, let's see here. Uh, Joey Porter Jr. is going to make his debut for the Cowboys on Sunday against the Texans. I'm more concerned with Joey Aspada and Joey Lopper Fito. It's funny. Uh, all this quiet on the Joe Aspada front. I can't call him Joey because I don't know him that way. Apparently the voice of the Phillies knows him that way.

7:02Hmm. That I mean, yeah, his giving name is Jose, isn't it? That I can say. A whole sway. Sorry. Yeah. So, uh, we're still waiting on that and whole sway Aspada. I mean, honestly, if you're Jim Crane, what kind of hurry in? We don't know. I guess he's not. This is also like Joe probably knows and they're just waiting for an announcement for whatever reason. Hmm. Yeah. I mean, you if Jim's going to give him a severance, part of that would be don't say a word. Let me handle this. Let me release it. I got another. I mean, I guess I got a dumb question, I guess. This is contract go until the league year. So until the end of the world series couldn't tell you. Yeah. It's funny. You know, we don't know too much about major league baseball salaries for managers. No. We kind of know about basketball. We certainly know about football because they brag about it all the time. The agents do. But baseball managers, we don't know who makes what, how long their contracts are. I guess, I mean, I guess it doesn't matter.

8:03You just let them go whenever. Right. Right. Like, yeah, let them go. No, the storyline this year going in was a Dana and Joe were both on the following years of their contract and they were going to play up at the Duh and well, they played like, like, play offs. If any of you were in the similar situation and your boss is not giving you extension and you're playing in a final year, you're probably getting your ducks in order. You're probably saving a little bit more money. Uh huh. You're thinking about where you're going to go next, where you're going to move. If you're going to stay, if you're going to alter the way that you spend money in your life, you have like peanut butter and jelly for dinner. John Heyman, who's a D bag said yesterday, an MLB network that Joe will be very much a hot commodity for a variety of jobs. And maybe I don't know if that's because Joe likes, uh, if, uh, John likes Joe. It's not, I mean, he'll be, he'll be working bin baseball again. Mm hmm. But I want to be perfectly clear with you. And I've told you this a couple of times in a radio show before, Joe wants to stay in Houston, Texas. He's got a family who likes it here. He's comfortable. He's been here a long time since 19 or before that.

9:05I think before that, okay. I mean, he was, uh, he was a bench coach for, uh, AJ too. So part of that time. So I don't know how long it's been. Uh, it's 18. Okay. There you go. I mean, he's got a young family and he doesn't want, you know, moving families is tough. I did it twice in five years and it does take its toll. Yeah. But you also know if you're going in that business, how the housing bubble? No, God, don't even bring that up. Uh, but you know, that's part of the business if you're in coaching. You know what that was for us. We're right that now. Well, no, you are being rude as being factual. Yeah, it's a crazy. I didn't have to bring it up though. Well, that's kind of you. Remember, I have a statement. You had one more sentence to it. We're used to this thing. I would say generally it's funny. All right. Uh, 750, rot in five. Okay. Eight o'clock. Like the strippers up or telling them a good night, eight 20 old friend of the show. Calvin Watkins Dallas Morning news on the Dallas Cowboys beat will be with us at eight 20. Okay. I mean, strippers could be waking up at eight. Depending. Cause here's what I was thinking. They're like an early shifter.

10:06People always complain about it. Matt, it's too late for them to tell them to go to the night at eight o'clock. You work till two. They're not going to bed at eight. You go get your breakfast until three. Uh huh. You go get a cat nap until like five thirty six. Why cat nap for five thirty to six? Three hours. Good nap, whatever. And then you go wake your kids up, get them off to school. Yeah. And that's when you do your deep sleeping. It's when the kids are in school. That's what I'm saying. You could wake the strippers up at eight. Why me? What if they got like a blood test? Like a parole hearing or something. Yeah, they're scheduling for more like one thirty two o'clock. Okay. What? We're trying to figure out stripper schedules. Yeah. You're right. And I got a ruling on a firing in our media in the media business yesterday. Ooh. Okay. I don't even know who got fired. Uh, I'll tell you what the Tony rummo. It's not Tony rummo. It's not Tony rummo. It's not Tony rummo. Okay. It's on a local level. Okay.

11:07So we're gonna get your thoughts on this. Hmm. Because I can kind of see both ways of this. And I don't mean to fence it on this. But I see both sides of this. Okay. This being a firing in media yesterday. I'm intrigued. I'm glad you are. It's anything goes fronty. It's man in the roster. Good morning. It's 713-212-5790. All right. So here's what happened yesterday in sports media. Uh, Braden Bell, 29 years old, was named the new television voice of the Portland Terrible lasers. Okay. Okay. He replaced Kevin Calabro, legendary NBA broadcaster, and the reason why Kevin left is because this Tom Brady, the new, I guess the new owner of the Portland Terrible lasers does everything on the cheap. He fires a bunch of employees. He's cutting corners,

12:07and he's reducing salaries and cutting back. So when the blazers offered Calabro a new deal, I think Kevin Calabro said not only no, but hell no. And his response was, what was your, what, what did you get back from the blazers? And he goes, it was, I think he's the term of subprime. Okay. I mean, legend. It would be, Calabro to Portland and before that, the Seattle Seahawks, or Super Sonics would be like Bill O'Rale, My Little Hamilton, I mean, just a legendary figure in Pacific Northwest basketball. Long time blazers and now, Sonic's an answering, long time blazers an answer. So Braden Bell is 29 years old. Uh, he worked for the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury G League team. And look, these NBA jobs don't come up very often. And he's 29 years old, and he gets the job. And everybody's like, great for you. You worked hard. You're very talented. You got a chance to really grow with this. And granted, you're going to make a lot less money than Calabro. People know that, but congratulations.

13:07A local TV station in Portland yesterday went looking for tweets. Mmm, that's not good. And found a handful of tweets that Braden Bell 29 said when he was 15. Okay. Um, they would be considered racist towards a certain minority group, uh, and certainly misogynist. Not a lot of them, but there are some of them. Okay. The blazers yesterday fired him. Hmm. Um, he had the job eight hours. Literally eight hours? Literally eight hours. But by the time he was, the announcement was made by the blazers to the time he was relieved of his duties were eight hours. So I saw somebody tweet that he had the job for eight hours, and I thought it was like a joke. Mm-hmm.

14:07I mean, it's not a joke. It was literally what happened. Real eyes. It was literally eight hours. So let me give you, both sides of this if I can. And it's got to be sensitive to this, because again, I don't know the kid at all. I've never met him. I don't, I didn't even know who this guy existed until yesterday. Obviously saying some of the things that he said, especially when you put on a social platform, it's going to have some consequences. There is, there is no long term, like he didn't say this two years ago. He didn't say this six months ago. He didn't say this three years ago. He said this is a 15 year old, but he said what he said? Mm-hmm. Some of the things he would have said, especially when it came to women, but would be, I would say unfortunately, barbershop talk, right? I mean, fair to say. Or locker room talk. Is it called locker room, barbershop, whatever you want to say. Did anything happen to those reporters that caught on the hot mic in Sacramento? They have not, but they're, they're, they're being found out, put it that way. Mm-hmm.

15:07You hadn't, didn't hear that. Not here that. Attractive, Zach Levine. Yeah, there was some female Sacramento Kings reporters waiting to talk to some players. Yeah. And they were talking about how hot the players were. Or he was like, oh, he's cute, but he's got a bad personality or something. Which is, that is the most, it got a little deeper than that. Yeah, but it's still pretty benign and uninteresting. Contents and things we've heard of. Correct. Air at these, they had rockets media day or any media day. Correct. Correct. Very tame. Extremely tame. So here's my initial thought. If this was a pattern of the last four or five years, six, seven years, if there was anything that would be remotely close to being timely, it's an easy decision. But he was 15 years old and we say and do stupid things at 15 years old. Stupid things. This is, I don't think a firing was warranted personally. I mean, he's 15 years old. Because he put out this tweet yesterday. I am so excited.

16:07I cannot wait to come to Portland and be a part of your community and do, did it, did it, did it, did it. I mean, just what a normal young man would do beginning an opportunity. One is an even, and it's a certain ethnic group, as you said, it said these people pissed me off. It wasn't like, it's not like he was like you slurred. It wasn't like Adolf Hitler had some really good ideas. Yeah. It wasn't the, it's pretty harm. I don't know what I was saying. I don't want to say harmless. I don't either. But I want to say in terms of the scale of things that a 15 year old would say, or thinking of things that I thought or said when I was 15 or 20 or even 25 or whatever. Like, yeah, it should he have said it? No. But he was 15 years old. Have him issue apology. I was a teenager and then move on with your life. And move on. And I guess what I'm probably more bothered by? Is it a TV station said, you know what, let's go look at every one of his tweets so we can find some dirt on the guy.

17:07Yeah. Also, I guess you just got to clean your tweets. I mean, I feel like we can read this. It's not that bad. Go ahead, Rhea. I said, yeah. I'm not racist at all, but I'm not going to lie. Asian people pissed me off. Ha, ha, ha, hashtag honest. That's stupid. He shouldn't have said that. Stupid. 15 year old say stupid. It doesn't matter put insert, whatever ethnic group it would have. Correct. Correct, correct. And he shouldn't have said it. It certainly shouldn't have typed it. Because again, today, today, today's kids can't run to their, and this is some adults who same thing, we can't run to our Twitter accounts fast enough to put things out there. I got to give a shout out to all the big girls out there and those closet bleeps. Correct. He's 15. He's not, he's not 29 doing this last week on his trip to Portland. It sounds like his tweets from a stupid 15 year old. 15 year old. We got a bleep alert on aisle 10. That's another one. Girls these night, hashtag 34 the D.

18:07He's, come on. So the blazers put it out. Honestly, again, not knowing him, and maybe he's this way. I don't think so. Because again, there's no pattern of this. But man, if, if all of us were crushed for things that we may have said we were 15 years old, none of us would have jobs. Yeah, and you also have to remember Twitter in 2012, it was a lot, lot more informal. People that don't know this, I mean, for example, maybe Jonathan doesn't know that like when Twitter was first on, it would be like, you and a couple of your friends, you'd be like, hey, where's Happy Hour? You would literally just tweet, where's Happy Hour is now? It was kind of like a text. Yeah, it was like a big giant group text. Yeah. And you would just say, you know, you would literally just tweet out, headed to them all. Or, you know, headed to the movies. What's it made come? What movie y'all watching this weekend? What's the TV show choice? I mean, I kind of know I grew up on Xbox Live. Okay. Everything's associated with me back then, it was a lot. Xbox Live is a lot spicier than anything this guy said.

19:08Yeah, so I'm saying, and I'm reading this guy to know what happened right now. Yeah. I'm good for him, man. Yeah, you're achieving your dream. That comes to play by play announcer of an NBA franchise. As you know, Matt, only 30 jobs. Very special. You were in this guy's shoes. You were young, as well. In some of them. 15 year old tweet. And Jonathan, I brought some stupid stuff on my 15. Everybody listening. We were all 15. If you wanted to go find out what we said, obviously Twitter was on around when I was 15, but I probably said some really stupid stuff. I'm sure I did. I say stupid stuff at 54, but you know, that's, but not that stupid, but I just, I feel like cancel culture got in this. And I just, and I'm, and I'm feel bad for him. And I feel bad for that. A reporter from a TV station said, hey, I'm doing the right thing. I want to go look at his tweets to see if this guy was worthy of being a Pacific Northwest resident. Little, little high in mighty. I just, mm-hmm.

20:08Not that's going to be a conversation, but the show. But I just, I just feel like that this is a, and I'm sorry. I have no evidence of doing this in the last few years. You can go ask all my friends. You can ask my enemies. You can ask anybody. Do I have a pattern of this? So his dream of being in and beginning to answer lasted eight hours. For something you tweeted when you were down. Not to be a downer, but I just one of the things that stupid mistake you made when you were 15. Yeah. Yeah. That's tough. All right. The sad and the six there are coming up next. We can, I cannot play what I want to play for the sad and the six thirty because it involves lots of swear words. But I can play a reaction to such statement. We'll have it for you coming up. If you'd like to join us on anything goes Friday, you may do so at 713-212-5790-713-212-5790. It's Matt and Ross in the morning right here on sports talk 790. Well, that sounds very inviting. Well, it all sounds exciting. That sounds like a threat.

21:08That sounds stupid. And now Matt and Ross bring you sounds at 630. All right. So last night in the NFL, the Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh dealers played and let's be honest, Ross. My guess is, air Rogers isn't a swell guy. One of the best quarterbacks ever to play. But doesn't make you a good person. As fiance wanted to go sleep with some other people before they got married. And he let that out there in public which I never would have done. I would if you had to have that water board me minimum. Yeah, and then he got out of me. And last year he goes into hides in a little box tent for like four days in a complete darkness. He's an odd bird. So last night, there was some communication in the last year. I was there sitting on the table so I would be here. You know, I was sitting in the table. And the night that day was coming. So last night, there was some communication issues between the bench and the huddle, and Aaron Rodgers had a break out of the huddle very quickly, and he is screaming, and it's

22:10on the prime network broadcast yesterday, what the F call it. Yes. Okay. Then the camera goes right to Mike McCarthy, and they see him saying, fng a hole. So what do you have to do? These guys have worked together for years. So what do you have to do once you do this? You could ask about it in the ad to post game press conference, and you have to say, I'm sorry. I think the biggest thing, Berks, it's something about some TV, but yeah, I'm in a case that sometimes it's not the best choice of words, but everybody's competing on the field. I think, you know, but set on the field, the way I grew up in this game, you know, usually stays on the field. That's not the case today. I understand that, but yeah, any negative communication on my part, I wish I wouldn't use those words. Man, he had to apologize for that.

23:16That's just for everything. God dang. Jonathan, I'm sorry for any. It's like an exchange. Me and Matt would have. Yeah, it's fine. Jonathan, I apologize for ripping on SFA the four times I do between now and 10 o'clock this morning. I called Matt much worse. How did SFA the better team? Yeah. I was going to get him. I mean, God, come Ross. Can I just say, come on. I mean, they coach screams at a player, a player of screams at a coach, they call it so their names and they move on. Yeah. Come on. Yes, apologize for that. Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy work together in Green Bay from 2006 to 2018. Twelve years. He signed back up for this. He knew Aaron Rodgers was going to be his quarterback. Yes, he did. Two guys pitching at each other. It's called professional football and national television.

24:17It's a high profile high-stress. I thought it was a funny moment and I mean, I chuckled when I saw it. I was like, oh, that's pretty funny. But I was like, this is unbelievable. Why would they be using this language towards each other? I don't have somebody issues in apology. Come on. You know what he did? He had to do it by de facto. Yeah. He's not apologizing. He's lying. He doesn't care. He doesn't care. I don't care. Aaron Rodgers doesn't care. He always say, he'll do it again. You know what you got to do now. You got to cover up your play calling folder over now. That's what you got to do. Yeah. Put you, is that why they're, I thought they were doing that so the other team didn't read their lips. I mean, I mean, I mean, I call people here at this station all sorts of names and they don't get mad. Oh, yeah. Whew. And how? Weak Matt the Ripper. Let's call you. For other things. Yeah, it's your multiple. It's a double entendre. It really fits. Yeah. It really fits the name here. So that's my sound to 630 mic McCarthy apologizing for swearing back in his quarterback.

25:23Is he, he was, he got in his field. Oh, God. Are you the F word? I'm sorry. Okay. Cool. I'm good. Cares. He had to apologize, I guess. That's just how we roll. Anyways, yeah, I'm going to stick with the same theme. As I mentioned earlier in the show, number one on the rotten five, the Cleveland Browns. And Deshan Watson, of course, had his run-ins complaining about the Cleveland crowd. Well, he said they were electric last night. It was electric. It was amazing. From the, from the time we came out pregame, you know, it was super dope to be called out and hit a crowd and, you know, fill the energy. And then just from start to finish, the crowd was in it. The energy had to stay in. We fed off them and, you know, to get a big victory against a division rivalry on prime time. It was just, I mean, this is what you dream about. This is what you work for. This is the things that, you know, you put that grind in summertime and train a cab for, for nights like this. So it was amazing. So Deshan Watson, cum by yeah, with the Cleveland Browns crowd.

26:25If you're a Browns fan or you aren't, I don't feel like, hey, we're trying to tank here. They're not. They're three and one. They're thinking playoffs. I have a friend of mine. Okay. Who works for the Browns? And she is losing her mind right now. Okay. Because she can't believe it. Tom Munkin was not brought in to do this. No. He was basically going to hold out Deshan. He's tired. Deshan Watson's hand until he get the counter out of his way. They're, they're good. And the schedule is not crazy. Jets next week at the Jets. Okay. Then home for the Ravens. Okay. That's going to be tough. I'm going to get the Titans at the Steelers at the Saints. Those are all winnable games. If you're home for the Texans. Mm. Winnable. That may be an NBC night flex. No, I'm just kidding. The cults think it's winnable. The Bengals think it's winnable. Mm-hmm. The Falcons Giants. They're, this is not a cake schedule, but it's a winnable schedule. So you're the Browns. Are you ready to make a gut feeling on this? Cleveland Browns to the playoffs?

27:25No. I can't do it either. I can't. No. But I give him credit. Three wins, three wins. There's one that's really one. Yeah, absolutely. Texans are 0 and 3. With the most pathetic 25th anniversary season ever so far. Yeah, really. Why are the date? How do I put this delicately? You just sometimes you celebrate anniversaries when you have this. Yeah. Amazing pass of glory and excitement. You got 19 to 10. You got Toral the Bull. You got a stadium. And you got JJ Watts pick six against the Bengals. And Andre Johnson beat up court. Lincoln. That was cool. Yeah. You got a kind of you fair bearing hit 57 year old Fjolk Golds mostly. Yeah, he was free in one of my leagues. I just picked him up. But they made a four part documentary on this. Four parts. Oh my god. Who, who was a board? Part one. We got a team. Is the Bob McNair saying the, you can't have the inmates running the prison going to be in there? Part of the Charlie Casterly run. The Bill of Brian years. The Jack Easterbears. The Jack Easterbears could have been there.

28:26My God. Oh, don't forget David Kelly. Lovey Smith years. Oh, Texans. Are y'all just trying to make a couple of quick bucks or what? At least they made the right decision on Mario Williams. That was that, that carried sports. I wasn't in the market. Oh, I would. That was where my career was starting. Yeah. And those are the sounds of 630, my friend. Every day here on sports talk. Every day. Seven o'clock. I'm earning to make a declaration about the Texans. A declaration about the Texans. Yeah. Seven o'clock. Seven o'clock. I think I know what it is. Is it going to make me sad or upset? No, but I think you're probably going to agree with me. Usually you don't, but I think. Okay. So I thought you were going to declare a must win game. Oh, no, no, no. That's crazy. I mean, it kind of feels like it. It feels like it. It's very important. It's semantics. One, three, two, one, two, five, seven, eight. We have a white socks fan that's calling in a day after they beat the Astros. Really?

29:26Cheaters. Boo. White socks. A bunch of cheaters. What do they cheat about? What do you mean? 1919. Oh, you're going back over a Hyundai? People don't forget. I was screaming that at people in the concourse Tuesday and Wednesday. You were. Okay, let's put this in perspective. You were screaming at white socks fans. Yes. I was out there in our setup at 102. I had been there for getting some audio and then I was doing some hits on Fox 26. So I didn't really have anywhere to be, but I was helping. I wanted to help them pack everything down. So I was hanging out kissing babies, shaking hands. A lot of people asking, where's Matt? So I, almost every time I was like, come on now, fancy Matt, you think he'd be here? No, I wasn't going to be there. Yeah. I know. It's just joke, but people were wondering where you were. That's nice. I was like, telling everybody to listen to us in the morning. Yeah, please. So I was out there kissing babies and yes, white socks fans, I would scream cheaters at them. Wow. Most of them laughed, gave me a thumbs up. Well, that means they have some good baseball history in it.

30:27Yeah. Yeah, I mean, it's just fun. 713-2125-790. All right. My co-host says crazy things. My co-host sometimes says horrible takes. But he is one of the smartest people I've ever worked with in this industry. Oh, wow. What did I do to deserve this praise? Just general. I'm going to see if you can figure this out. Oh, this is a sports. Oh, god. It's true. We're going to show my coffee. This is a sports puzzle here. I'm going to give you a few clues and I'm going to give you about a minute to try to figure it out. Okay. Don't give any good things to the lockers. All right. I would never do that. Yeah, you do. John McLean. Ha-ha-ha. Something happened last night in the New York Rangers Tampa Bay Lighthouse. Tampa Bay Lightning Game. Okay. The first time it's ever happened to this team. Okay. Okay. The team being the Rangers.

31:27Okay. The person that did this, original six, aren't they? Oh, god. It got to be. It was 1926-27. Did that, somewhere in that range? Okay. The person, don't look it up. Because I'm just looking at original six. Okay. The person that did this, did this accomplishment yesterday, Rossi. Okay. His name is Igor Shuster Skin. Okay. Okay. Igor Shuster Skin. Igor Shuster Skin. Did something that no other Ranger has ever done in the history of its franchise. Okay. One of the things that you'd like to know before you make a decision. I have no decision. Yes. I mean, it feels like it could be a million things and I don't even really know hockey. I know. It's the problem is we don't know hockey. So it's hard for us. He scored something that's never been done before. Never been done by a person in his position. There's another hint for you. Okay. Is he a keeper?

32:27Golly. He scored a goal. I told you, smart. Thank you. Igor Shuster Skin scored the first goal by a gold tender in New York Rangers history. I've seen a gold tender in a given away too much. Okay. There have been 93 different gold tenders in the history of the Rangers organization. And they are in original 16. Yeah. And he scored a goal on empty netter. Blackhawks, Redwings, Canadians, Rangers, Maple Leafs. Wait, what? What is five? Bruins. There you go. AI listed five of the original six. Oh, don't trust AI. I just trust AI. This is the original six teams. AI, this is five teams. That's funny. It's not doing all the two. So again, there's a few hockey fans listening. Okay. This guy was interesting to me that was brought up that was like a empty net situation. Yeah. Yeah. I can't imagine it being a legit game. He just made a really ripe one down there. Yeah. But yeah.

33:27It's got some power. Because I saw Kenny Albert on his Twitter account showed the box, showed his stat sheet. Kenny's doing the Texans game, by the way, on Sunday against the Cowboys. Really? And so I looked at his tweet and he's like, I can't believe I was here for this. And he does a Ranger Games on TV too. Oh, okay. And he was there for the event. Not even his dad. It was a long time Ranger voice. I honestly was surprised to see that they were playing. Because also it was going viral. Some guy got asked about an injury and the woman reporter like he skated off on her. Literally. Is that what was he being disrespectful or what? She was asking about putting in bubble wrap or something. She made a joke and he didn't think it was funny. He didn't laugh. All right. Let's go the phones and talk to somebody called Christopher. Christopher, are you in Houston or are you in Chicago? Nope. I am in Houston. I live in Katie. I've born and raised in the South Side of Chicago. And I moved out here when I retired from the United States Marine Corps.

34:28Thank you for your service. I'll stand in gentlemen. All right. Thanks. That's all you got. Oh, no. I don't know. Go ahead. Go ahead. No, we were just teasing. We're messing with you, Christopher. That's okay, gentlemen. Well, after listening to you guys for a while and then hearing everything about, well, we won the series with Chicago and with Cleveland and we hold the timebreakers. None of that was necessary. Because the boys from the South Side, young Donna Plain, come down here to Houston, took y'all hats, put them on their heads, whipped y'all back sides with their backs, put a shame to your pitching staff, your probably your coach is probably getting fired because of us. In general manager has already 86 on another airplane on vacation. And now the rest of your team is in this make, because they don't even know if they're staying. So you're welcome for that. We are greatly appreciative to bring that misery to you. Yeah, appreciate that. You'll be, what are you doing? Guardians and three Matt?

35:28Yeah, I got the Guardians. I don't even know if the White Sucks just show up. Yeah, I mean, you guys earned the right to get your ass with probably by, I don't know, the raise or the Yankees. We got the Macs. We are your unofficial home of Guardians baseball now. Yeah, you got a couple more weeks. Awesome. Yeah, we're proud of you. Well, we appreciate it. We'll take every fan that we can. But I want to end this one conversation with this. After further review, green base still sucks and bear down. Shit, oh, my man. So, all right. Thank you, Christopher. Christopher. Bear down. I wonder if he, does he go by Christopher or does he go by Chris and is having a show up on the screen as Christopher? No, he told me Christopher. Huh. What's wrong with that? I'm just curious. It's not common. I don't feel like it's uncommon. Name another Christopher that you know. Christopher Robin? Really? Yeah. Okay, you're going with a character and Christopher guest. It's one. Okay. I'm waiting. I'm sure there's more here.

36:30Let me, Chris Differ. Christopher Reeve. Christopher Walken. Oh, man. That's Christopher Nolan. Christopher Reeve. May rise. Christopher Columbus. Maybe you heard of that guy. Say, the ocean blue of 1492. Christopher Cross. Christopher Lee. Yeah. All right. I'll be Matthew for the rest of the day. You should. It sounds more formal. No. I don't want to be formal. I'll be informal. Okay. I'm here for. Uh, seven, one, three, two, one, two, five, seven, any. Uh-oh. Christopher's phone call spiking other people to call the show. Uh-oh. Here comes the smack talk from other people. Longhorn Scott. Wow. He's up early. On an off week Scott. What are you calling us for? You know, I guess you're this is the. I think this is the first time I've ever felt compelled to call in about a non-UTI item or not. You're like about some. This is a topic I wouldn't normally waste my time on.

37:33Yeah, usually you call to yell at me, Scott. I'm, uh, so I'm happy. I'm off the hook today. You know, I love your Ross. I just question your decision. I love you too, Scott. Hook him. Hook him. Hook him. I love the, you got to love the irony of a guy who's from the so-so Chicago, but who is chosen to forsake his homeland to come down here to the land of milk and honey to to live his life. And, and then who's completely oblivious to the fact that, and I'm not, I'm not even a guy hard asterisk fan by the way. Like, I, you know, I watch them. It's good for the city when they do well. I've lost zero sleep over any shortcomings they've ever had, but they were 81 and 81 going into this. Like the average asterisk fan is like kind of man anyway. Yeah, do you want to win? Sure, but are you losing any sleep about losing to another mediocre team? I mean, for the, what? It's just, it's, it's high comedy that this guy who, hey, type of the hat, appreciate

38:34the service, right? And I'm sure you're a great guy, but dude, you're from South Chicago, South, South, South Chicago. And you came down here to the land of milk and honey to set up residents after retiring from the Marine Corps. And yet you're gloating over having beaten in the 81 and 81 team that snuck in the last day of the season, bro. Anybody got time for that? Wake up. Mm-hmm. That's why you're unofficial home of guardians baseball. Scott, thank you for the phone call, my friend. It'd be like bragging about beading meek Creek or something. I'm not a good team. Wait, just a literal worst team and baseball history to get into the postseason. I feel like going to the Nackadoges thing. That's a big, big road win for us. I'm pleased. So funny. I laugh all the way. Some of the rounds are borders too. Well, you know what? He's got to be happy. White socks fans. That's our first series win in 20 years. What do you want years in Houston, by the way? And by the way, shout out

39:36to NBC for only showing the Jeff Blum home run, I think twice. Yeah, I don't know. It's only two games. So how many Jeff Bagwell strikeouts did this show? Oh my God. He couldn't even throw. He couldn't even throw the baseball. So bad for him at that point. And then he was able to retire and have a. He's your general manager. You're de facto general manager. That's great. All right. We start the second hour of Madden Ross in the morning coming up in a few moments. I have to make a declaration about the Texans. I'm intrigued. Not that intriguing. She's something. I'm sorry. It is going to be something that you're going to want to tell your kids and your friends about Ross. A watershed moment in your life history. Yes. Ross, 52 minutes away from the rotten five. Oh, what? I'm like your vocal alarm club. Oh, Fred. This is Madden Ross in the morning. Yeah.

40:54On super kuin Star cause spray and you love you in the morning for . I'm Send the volume high, the AXTown spear switching for the sky It's Madden Ross Oh, man, we got the excited version! It's the extended mix! What do they call it? The vinyl, the 12 inch mix Yeah, she loves us over that person as a website

41:54Thank you! 706, whichever AI that was That's right, we can go ahead AXT got some value It does It's also dangerous as hell, but that's how they go there And it's going to end us all, but whatever Yeah, it's fine It's fine It's going to cross an even greater imbalance in the halves and the halves and nots And eliminate jobs, don't forget that part too And eliminate jobs, it's fine How am I supposed to be motivated to live through life and honestly? Buy their stock, that's all I can tell you Just go one up I need you to really spend a lot of money on lottery tickets and just pray that one hits Yeah, can we take care of each other? One more down, two more We're all taking care of each other, right? If I hit the lot, you'll never see me again What? Come on I might give you all, maybe five down Yeah, I'll take five to civic or something But don't send me a W2 though, I don't need that though, I don't need the taxes on that All right I think you can gift up to like 13K a year now these days It'll be on the doorstep, you know Oh, no, it'll be like a secret like an envelope, I got you All right Here's my declaration, you all ready? Okay This is not any sort of breaking news, but if the Texans lose on Sunday, they're not making the playoffs

43:03Has an O and 14 ever made the playoffs? They have never made the playoffs so in four Okay Number two The conference is already congested with a bunch of wins Meaning, you are well, of course, bills are 3 and 0 Yep Keep going Browns are 3 and 1 Yes, Jaguars are 2 and 1 That's fine, you got two games left against them Raters are gonna fall off, mark my words Good, rounds picked off Raters are not, I'm not gonna declare them not making the playoffs is already 3 and 0 But Yeah, you're right, Raters are on fraud alert Okay, I'm sorry, Raters are on fraud alert Chiefs not so much, Broncos legit Go, charges, go, me worried about them I dropped Justin Herbert on my leaks, thanks Jonathan Hey Even if they were to win seven straight after losing on four, seven contract and a hot wife You're still gonna be behind Okay You have, I'll say Ross can get mad at me

44:04Okay This is a must win game Go ahead You said that last year when it was the Jackson Jaguars and they lost that game The Texans must win this game Okay Are they? We'll see Should I make the announcement on that too or wait a few minutes? I'm feeling better, my gut feeling on Tuesday was they're gonna lose Nico Collins practice Again, right? Yes, he did What's Eddinger's status? He is back as well Check on that tank though, because it seems like it takes a day Yeah, tankdels really rock Yeah, by the way, this is tankdels to be back at practice next week Because he missed the four games not I'm just saying they might be My offer for your hat for the hash brown surrender is off the board What did you guys up it back up to? To a full breakfast meal Full breakfast It's okay, they're gonna need tankdels They're not gonna need anybody It's gonna be full breakfast like a lumberjack's one In fact, you're gonna be punished for not taking my surrender Oh, Nico's limited Eddinger limited

45:08I need to see the Friday report I'm gonna say it Go ahead Because I predicted the Texans win the first three weeks of the season Yeah, what would they give me? All right, Texans insider They're losing this week That was my gut feeling on Tuesday Because here's the problem I know Dallas is defensive terrible But they did go get a cornerback to help them out immediately It's the stoppable force versus the movable object I'm telling you Is the kids has the Texans defense at this point this year Showing you to be so good to stop one of the tops five or six offenses in the NFL Hmm I mean, they've been good not great defense Yeah, but if Joey Porter is on Xavier Hutchinson, who cares? Hutchinson wasn't gonna get open anyways Didn't matter You certainly are to disrespect you Xavier Hutchinson He's definitely hitting him You are an ex-hater You hate the ex He's a great, I always call him a great wide receiver four Good blocker

46:08First of all, you never can say great and wide receiver four in the same sense Yeah, what do you mean? Nobody says that This guy's a great fifth starter Get your five endings and give up about three runs So basically he's the Hayden was an Eski of the Texans receiving the corner He was throwing like three now come on He's the Ethan Peco of the of the Texans receiving it Ethan Peco go out there before he hurts his hip I like Xavier Hutchinson No, you don't We already had no name man two end-or-round for four yards man, that's production It's getting much savior's precarious Woody Marx Heading right this down right there He apologize Xavier I hope he does I hope all you in dating him Yeah, I'm not worried somebody be draped all over me. It doesn't get separation So let's get to some other things about the Sunday game. Okay, how many people if the stadium seats 66,000 give or take right what is isn't that what you

47:09You can be full it's gonna be full. I don't say what colors can be full of let me hold on let me look at the I don't even know what I As always the numbers always seem to change about the the capacity isn't it like 65 ish or something? Let's see here I'm looking this up on the Twitter here we go. I'm sorry 72. That's all of 72. Okay, so there's 72,000 seats available How many of them will be cheering for the Dallas Cowboys? 30,000 So just shy of half the crowd Got feeling Because I think with an o and three start your selling off tickets you're selling off. Yep Like I don't want to go in there and get a bunch of fights with Cowboys fans and Cowboy fans will throw hands do not worry about that. Yes, they will And you got to go through security if you can't bring your nub chucks. You can't bring your steak knives

48:10I got them a fourth in the NFL my power rankings for Nick Tats Why are you shaming on Nick tech guy? I'm not I'm just saying Cowboys fan I got him fourth after was a thing guys necktack guy all I said was I got him fourth I didn't say it was better good. You're just saying okay. This is all right. I got you number one of course is a raider fan And we'll talk more about this Calvin walkins Dallas morning. He was gonna join us today 20 this morning on the Dallas side of things but How are they supposed to go model a model point for point? I mean, I guess they did it against Buffalo. I give him that Yeah And guess who played in that game who hasn't been playing since Where's number 12? Okay, so Nico Collins is going to save the Texans bacon against the Dallas Cowboys If you want to I mean you can say that I don't say he's gonna save their bacon is there running is there a running game to speak of he No, is the offense of lying any good? No are the other receivers any good? No Sir saying there's a chance. Let's go Nico

49:10CJ Straussman actually playing kind of quietly pretty good. I Don't think if you're a CJ Truth or you got plenty evidence to support your side. Mm-hmm You've got your offensive line has not been any better. You're receiving core has been well It wasn't great to begin with but injuries haven't helped. Mm-hmm. You're running back game dim Montgomery's just I don't want to say washed But he's even par through three Oh my see you see they stride. Mm-hmm. Now how would you describe the fourth hole? Oh, it's uh, it's Well, Nico Collins plays to par four run for example. Yeah week one when he fumbled it away He played well and then fumbled away is like he he got on the green in Two but then he two put it Okay, I'm gonna house it again Cincinnati. Ooh Cincinnati Golf music got into the butt. He got into the bunker And then he he hit a he had a massive t-shot All the way to to the bunker near the green mm-hmm and then he chipped in and two put it from there

50:14So you're telling me this putt game is terrible not great short games not great. He's not finishing well I'll give you a B plus in us It's you know what Jonathan it's difficult. He's trying to use golf inacular to talk about her quarterbacks performance You know, it was a tough it was a tough start to begin with It was a dog leg Shut up. I'm done So I mr. Golf what is we on a part four here a dog lay dog leg did it and I got a par All right the Cowboys are for you can reach it in two but there's water right in front of the green. Oh no cow I don't know Cowboys like a tasty par three Like it is the masters adhesives like one fitting straight up and down It's sitting there for you. We need a joy poor juniors gonna be better. It's too bad that Jim Nance is not calling this game, but you know what? He likes to use the hybrid it might not be in his bag. Oh Dalton Schultz is 90 degree Yeah, okay

51:17Let me tell we've tried to make golf and football in the same conversation. We've let you down His driver. Oh, no, he's the big boy. He's a three wood because you can't always rely on the driver Go to go to the safety you go safe you go three wood three wood okay, and then you got a bunch of three you got a bunch of six irons Yeah, exactly the bags messed up. The bag isn't enough. This is awful. Actually. This was great. I don't think so I think it's terrible segment. Don't make me call for an insta pole people are loving this analogy Seven Pike loves it. Yeah, Doug Pikes love it. It's the Texans are a bunch of six irons Seven sixty dead sports talk seven Eddie The old big kick energy there on the old podcast why we come up with some duties here in the old network At least that one's actually sports My favorite might have been the what was it the Polynesian or the Filipino Filipino WNBA run down? No, I think it was just Philippine basketball. Okay

52:20With Cassidy Hubberth. We've had John Waldo one for two weeks. Yeah, if you want a podcast I'll give you a spot they had they have domain weights on there. Dwayne Wade was on there all dudes on dudes dudes on dudes Hey, Joel dudes on dudes we can do believe it or we were promoted this goofy ass podcast. Yeah Are they still doing dudes on dudes? Google it see if dudes on dudes you love dudes on dudes. I just No, I didn't never listen to it Set myself up there for You know what I'm sorry. Yeah, write that down Their last episode looks like was a year ago imagine that Imagine getting in there and doing you podcast man. We're gonna do something different No, you're gonna be a failed media host switch your stop it Listen to terrestrial radio six to ten especially Maybe a little to attend to two. I don't care if you listen to two to six

53:23Six months ago the last dudes on dudes Imagine that professional athletes they can make you do our jobs 4,400 views on the Uber tubers Oh, please got a hard 50k. Yeah, they're doing a little they're doing some numbers on some of these some of them But they didn't want it to keep doing it. Well, they're busy busy millionaires. Yes, how's things? I think it's fun for a little while and then you're like, eh instead of our business What the professionals do it. Yeah, you can't be an all-world athlete and take our jobs Not fair. Yeah, it's very rude. All right 724 and anything goes fronty Final score at Rossi ooh 28 20 21 and is it too on the fancy if I hedge and I I want to give to I think they win literally win if Nico Collins and Eddinger and play You really want you really gonna say Ed ingrams me the difference maker in this game well because he shuffles everyone else Yeah, back okay, I mean and also yeah, but why tellers actually been pretty good

54:25I was praying Smith doing on I R. How's this planter fascia man He was injury he was injured when they signed the contract. He was the dumb Marshall of the Texas. Oh my god. Don't varsho had arthoscopic Rissurgery by the way. Does he get a playoff share? Do they get wild card playoff shares they get a little bit do they yeah limited? I know Jim crane one of that game three Yeah 24-hour margaritas it do just fine. I don't know the guy called us and said they got up to 35 I mean look I don't I'm not a heavy drinker so this is not much for me But I can't imagine saying I really really really need an alcoholic drink at a baseball game I want to drop thirty thirty five dollars. I go to water for six and call today. Yeah, it's even six Mm-hmm. Go sniff some glue During the game you just kidding don't do that. Yeah, don't do that son I'm trying to get in trouble and have to issue apology and I'm gonna have to lose my job because I made it Joseph future job on that. It's I know

55:26All right 28-21 cowboys of the wind puts them in on four and 28-21 cowboys. Yeah Texas get 21 points. Yeah Dmitco never calls Kimey fairburning for about four field goals three extra points. Yeah, okay He needs touchdowns when you play the cowboys you need to always do weird numbers because I feel like I got a good shot with Dmitco That's right. That's true. So I'm going If Nico Collins plays most importantly, I think he's going to play I think so two two days of limited But hamstring there's always a re-injury risk always no matter who you are Yeah, and the opponents know that yeah Jonathan Allen knows that he's re-injured hamstring before I bet Half the stories. Yeah, see track athlete knows I will go with Nick if Nico Collins plays they win if not they lose I'm gonna first say that and at the end of the day I'm gonna say Cowboys 27 Texan 23 so tell me and if I need to say I'm wrong

56:28Here just came out of my eye if I'm wrong. I'm odd if they lose they're not making the playoffs correct probably not That's but I would say The nature of the NFL and the one score games and last year for the Texans is a perfect example You can get on a roll because every game's close Most every game you like you can get on most of the time You know you're gonna lose that's why when Cal said it's been a one score game Doug Cal every games a one score game. It's it feels like you can get on a roll on a crap stable Maddie I know this the house always wins would you get four or five points in a row? It can happen you've seen it So maybe not when I'm there. Yeah, so basically the Texans have rolled nothing but sevens for a month and they're gonna roll about eight You get three sevens in a row. It's like dang Although the Bingo's game was not a one-score game But the other two were and most of them will be the rest of the way and if you I know you don't want to analytically nerd out too much on Okay with that but like they're like success rates and EPA's and stuff like that for the bills game and the Colts game

57:32They're actually pretty very very competitive and According to some analytics like the Texans have been unlucky in those terms So I think if Nico Collins plays I'm feeling good that they can they can bounce back against Cowboys I would feel significantly better with a win More so let me put it this way one in three Doesn't sound great, but compared to own four and the future and what's ahead of them Again, I think it's a fate of complete if they go to own four. I think you can lose it this way I think you're gonna lose this game and then beat the Titans the week after that You then you have Jaguar's Giants at home then chart well Browns is maybe gonna be in them and being tougher than you thought The Green Bay game we thought would be difficult in the end of the year That may not be as difficult right so we know you never know in the NFL I'm saying if they lose this one They could win for Neuro Titans Jags Giants Chargers. They could win five in a row at Browns But the reason why I can't do that Ross is because of the same core issues That this team had at the end of last year they never really are getting their teeth kicked in so I'm saying I'm not I mean

58:36Maybe I'm just being too vanilla because I you know whatever. I know this is not a Sports broadcasting 101. I'm supposed to have a piping hot. Yeah, right right. Unfortunately I'm gonna be reasonable here. I'm gonna say they could lose this week and then win their next five The only corner we have online is Terry no Hyal he's terrible. He brings a shave. Let me stay with me on this. He brings the show down We would like to talk to anybody but Terry Through it's not the it's rude it is, but it's the truth.

1:10:13The offense has been bad your 25th in yards per play It's not even like it's been a shutdown defense as well points per game.

Yeah, you are on the road, but you could only muster seven points Against the giants and just like james had a great day It's not like camps got to go ahead a great day. Just couldn't score Tennessee Titans are absolutely terrible. They're 30th in the NFL and points per game They take on the Ravens this week. They're 11 and a half point dogs To Lamar Jackson and Baltimore I'm gonna keep it a buck Tennessee Titans are terrible. They're the absolute worst team in the NFL

And Jim Morrison disagrees. Yeah, that's right

1:19:36But there are a lot of you that have they're party to really hard really really really hard Kurt Cobain is not so much. Yeah, yeah, maybe stay off the heroin. All right Madden Ross in the morning. It is 807. We're gonna check in in Dallas in about 15 minutes It's a thought or two about Joey Porter Jr. Now in the seconder. You know, did you see all some Porter Jr. He had a bad back Yeah, this week ironically now. Yeah, all of a sudden he's walking straight Back feeling alright. Yeah, I got me scoliosis. Yeah, I don't know that can play this week Hey pop the disc back in when he got the Dallas suddenly he's feeling a lot better. He's all good. I mean the drugs and Dallas are good. Yeah So it's a K-Shaw and booties time to shine Who's your pick? Who's your pick to click? Nico Collins What okay, I mean I guess I could take that right yeah CJ Stroud two touchdowns. I think they're gonna get uh Dalton shorts more Dalton shorts more involved in the offense He was a non factor. They were got him less involved in the offense last week. I know them saying he's got to get him going. Well his snaps went down

1:20:42Whatever you're gonna climb by the way Oh Claren't climb conversation Matt clangling me a difference make a second round pick Nick. See thank you very much Marlon clang where the hell you been Don't shake your head, but you know I'm right I'm the insider. I told y'all marlon clangling nothing nice trust me. Oh, yeah, I'm gonna tell the truth absolutely I also the defensive tackle you picked him to win three weeks in a row insider. You know what I'm a Insight dirt on that I'm a Texans optimist is what I am. Oh really They're favoring you have them to pick in the loose. You're not a Texans optimist. Yeah because I need to buck the trend Because I picked them three straight weeks and what has it done? Given you three straight losses. He hasn't done much, but yeah Dalton Schultz they actually used him less Last week they're gonna have to get him more involved because he's he's more reliable than Uh Xavier Hutchinson or Bruce Wayne or any of those other guys Bruce Wayne. What's the guy? I think Jared Wayne Jared Wayne

1:21:44He's been on the field a ton too much. I don't know what's going on with Jared Wayne, but his snaps were way up the last couple of weeks And yeah, they haven't been it was a foster morrow got more snaps and Dalton Schultz it last week. How many to marlon clangit? Uh marlon clang got four four snaps second round pick right? Am I right about that? Yeah, he's working. They're working him in. Oh No, he's doing no no no no no He was no I went on the YouTube page pages of failed radio people. Why are you doing that? No, you didn't I'm serious. I did. I hate listen You go to their YouTube snow. I do. I'm not giving them numbers. I'm not going on there. You're so human Martin clangit. He's the greatest thing in the world. You see that seam rowdy ran in the preseason game. Yeah, I did caught one pass Yeah, okay Nobody reasonable was telling you that Marlon Clang was going to be a breakout star No, stop stop stop stop listening to these Texans homers and it's because you're hate listening to them

1:22:44And then you think that's the opinion of everyone nobody had Marlon Clang Nationally on the radar for a big breakout and yeah, he's been fine. I go guess for a few snaps He's a rookie. He's a rookie tight in here. Don't work him in. Yeah I'm not hate listen those shows. I can't do it. Please. I'm not doing it. I'm only listening to yours Your podcast my podcast. I'm starting one up soon called Well, what's the deal with Matt That might get you some numbers actually Look who's here. It's gambler gym. Hey, it calls as gamblers folding Jimber gym. What did I tell you about the gamblers ever going down like a Titanic did I not? Yeah, you did but you look like let's not blow okay all right I'm gonna glow though go on I'm skinned we lost those we lost our spring football team and Way the Texans are playing probably one of spring football team They never the last I call it and see if y'all watch the game last night. The Thursday night game bits and pieces Okay, well, I didn't think I did what I was gonna do what I did last night blacks and was cheering for Sean Watson

1:23:47Of course they were playing the Steelers which help but he's a good game. He looks really good I was proud of the guy, but you know, I didn't like what he was accused of doing but that's still like the guy I mean he was a Texan he and good for the Texans and let me ask you this James Why do you like him? What what is likeable about a guy who basically sexually harassed and probably abused many women? I just addressed that I said I didn't like what he was accused of oh okay Okay, but the fact is he was a quarterback for the Texans except for the last couple years when he got an attitude problem but when they say who the coach was on stupid stuff But then again, they tried to talk to him too, which kind of pissed him off But nevertheless you played good last night. I was really proud of him I was glad to see that he's at least making it and come back where he didn't get booed by the home fans So I just I've understood and then I want to talk about the Texans Texans oh my god, the receiving corps just got awful. I mean You go into a game and you look at the receiving corps now an equal college is coming back with shit helping Hopefully tank pills gonna make a turn but these guys that they drafted

1:24:51I mean Higgins is out. Well Higgins is a good receiver, but he's out But the rest of these guys oh my god. They're just trash Hutchinson maybe But the rest of the guy has no way Even no wills. I'm that great, but he had just wanted to get your thoughts on that Uh go Texans go Texans exactly. We are your fish or go Texan station uh Honestly, I like Sean Watson when he was actually calling out the ownership I did I the problem I had with the Sean was the fact that he was going to misuses Yeah, he obviously knew that Jackie used to be at run-a-muck in the organization I was teamed to Sean on that and well, and then he got hit with 25 lawsuits And look if he wants to go to misuses that's fine. I can live with that That's not an issue But if you're harassing women and you're assaulting them enforcing to do things against her. Well, that's the problem correct Cursion is a crime if you want to go to spawn get your you know ever done then that's you between you and them But if you're harassing them then don't do it well Yeah, but then you get running to a problem with a lot of these women at those places are trafficked

1:25:53So that's right. That's right. That's right. All right Calvin Watkins Dallas Morning News That's the heritage paper right there. It's actually a paper that covers teams Madden Ross to the morning at 821 sports talk 7 out of 8 an old friend of the show Is making an appearance now he was a star here covering the Houston Rockets and then he said you know what I gotta go back to Dallas cover the cowboys Work for the Dallas Morning News Yeah, we got big time we got big timed. That's fine. It's fine. What are we gonna do here Calvin Watkins long time no talk man in Ross in the morning What's going on big timer What's going on guys glad to see you guys are still working. That's good. Yeah, it's not it's not a great idea We're like why we're barely holding on Calvin to be honest with you. We can't Hey Give us a macro view of covering this football team behind one of the most

1:26:55Obviously the number one brand in sports number two general manager Who's an owner who is the greatest business person ever to touch an NFL franchise, but from a personnel standpoint has had some mixed results Just what is it like are you always on the edge of your seat? Are you always in a what's gonna happen next to this organization? Yeah, there's always something going on with these guys on it off the field Perfect example. I'm at home. It's I'm watching the WNBA game and And then I see a text excuse me. I see a I get a text from my coworker And he says me a tweet from Tom Pillicero who said the Cowboys straight up a jewelry porter, right? So the Cowboys undo it easy You know, they do it late at night Jerry's always involved in something and the fan base is incredible As you guys know the Texans and other teams down there. So you always on the clock down here 247

1:27:56And look I'll say this and again, I don't watch every cowboy games I'm focusing on obviously the the local team here The real game. I mean that was a that's DAC and friends doing everything humanly possible to win that football game If you were to take a look at the last year It a lot of the issues for the Cowboys and I unable to capture and finish off games is defensive problems Is that correct? Yeah, the defense Counting this year the last three years have it's been a disaster They've tried to piece me look together in different ways whether it's in the draft Trade for agency and just hasn't worked on a third different defensive coordinator Since then Quinn left to become the head coach of the commanders So it's been it's interesting because I've never This is my 17th year current Cowboys and I've never seen the defense this bad like at some point you can you you're able to fix something right It just haven't been able to fix this particular unit. It's been it's been amazing

1:29:00And how much I Guess I'm just can in this day and age in 2026 is it still 100% Jerry Jones or how much is it Steven Jones What is the power balance in terms of roster construction player personnel and all those things It's a collective Jerry has admitted he is not as fully involved as it used to be But um, but he's still around and I still making decisions But for the most part Steven Jones is kind of running and staying along with Wilma Clay who was kind of like the de facto GM In a sense and and Jerry allows his coaches You know to have a big say in the make above the roster That's been one of the biggest Misconceptions about the Cowboys is that everyone thinks Jerry's just doing everything right well. He's not doing everything before you as always so much he could do right But it's a collective thing here um You know, but Jerry obviously have the last say on everything and he is the first to remind you of that

1:30:03But a lot of times he gets his cue from Steven or he gets his cue from the head coach in this case is Brian Soutnermer Calvin Watkins joining us here on sports talk 790 talking Cowboys and Texan so Joey Porter Jr. is in the fold of course Quentin Williams Via trade now. I mean how much does the Joey Porter move the needle and also I guess reports have been the Quentin Williams is having a down year at least early on Yeah, he is not as productive as we've seen him in the past when he took the jets right um, but he is he is flash Uh, he forced the humble Uh In the opener against the giants Uh, he has done some okay things he could be better But um, you know, Joey Porter adding him. It's going to be a big boost to the defense Man-to-Man corner He doesn't have a lot of acceptance. He's got like three in a section in his career

1:31:03But what he does is he can erase raps Like for instance if he faces uh, Nico Collins on Sunday The Cowboys expect him to take Nico Collins out the game right and uh teams are not throwing To Porter's way as much as they used to so that's a good thing right, but you have to get a pass rush And that's something the Cowboys have struggled to do this year In the first week we said the season But they believe that Joey Porter being around can kind of help with that pass rush because If you take it away with severs you would think some of the pass rushes would get to the quarterback Calvin on the offensive side, you know, look cj strad is in a situation where he's looking for his second contract That got obviously his a couple of years ago and is making crazy money Did that press gods big balloon money Come at the cost of hurting other positions on the field because that's the thing that I think a lot of folks here in Houston are worried about Calvin is it if you sign all this money to to cj This awesome defense of taxes been able to put together you can't afford to keep bring everybody back

1:32:06No, you can't afford to bring everybody back, but here's the thing about contracts And that kind of thing the the NFL makes a lot of money as you guys know, I'm not breaking news here Sally cap is increased by at least 10 to 15 million dollars every year And so if your cap is going up then yes, you can add more money to the cap Also, you can carry over cap space for the previous year to the next year So for instance the cap was ever about 25 million dollars of cap space right now, right? If they don't do anything with that space that will go over to next year. So um When teams say where we can't afford this you get it for anything you want is all about how you structure the contract Giving that press got a big money contract has not hurt the cowboys in terms of adding new pieces to their team um Tyler Smith got one of the highest paid contracts for a guard in the NFL CD land got a new contract take Ferguson got a new contract

1:33:09They gave a hundred million dollars This year to quit and whips in terms of an extension So they can pay people it's all about how you structure the money um, and but also you got to make the right decisions about who you give money to All right last question for your friend. How do you see this playing out? Obviously the loss in Rio came down to a long kick and a Z Flowers reception before that Uh, most NFL games are down to one possession one score games. Uh, how do you see it Sunday in Houston? These are two desperate teams You guys know the Texas have been through this before that they started on three last year. It's took me to playoffs um, I got the Texans winning this game. I just think this is gonna be a playoff like atmosphere um, the Cowboys defect is you know, whether they have joy poor or not It just cannot get to the quarterback, right? And I just think the Texans who cousin home Cowboys coming off a 10-hour flight

1:34:11To Rio. I think it's still a little tired from what happened there still little uh, I think it's still a little upset about what happened to to do in the Ravens game in Brazil. So I'm taking the Texans uh, I don't know if it's upset but yeah, I think I got the technical within this game That's it's desperate for both teams, especially now the NFC East could be a hot mess because Phil Alfay's not playing great The giants aren't people are sold on that. I mean if anybody can afford to lose the game perhaps it's Dallas But I know that you don't your your listeners do not want to see that uh cabin good here from your friend You are missing this town. We miss your NBA coverage. We look forward to uh, Renework on the Dallas Morning News website all throughout the course that you're thank you for the time Appreciate you guys take care. All right take care cabin walkins Dallas Morning News on the Cowboys beat And

Hey come on now. You're mud of made it for me. You're mud of thank him. Thank you For bringing a sauce It's some good gravy no use the Internet on the sauce. Yes, they call it gravy.

Hello James Hey fellas thank you for taking my call governor Thomas. I'm gonna get straight to it. Look I'm really really happy No matter what transpires now from this moment forward with the Yankees meeting up with their upstart raise Okay, cuz I could go to my brother this weekend and I can lay it on a fifth gym about his sorry as Red Sox and there were a lot of people over here

1:36:19This you feel even more sorry of because they were ruined for the Red Sox a bunch of Or you know she's throwing a politics, but anyway. I'm grieving too my wife is grieving too because man She was ruined real hard for the Astros, but I told her look During transition they they need a lot of things to do a smooth world You know from the from the upper management part to whoever the trash they got to pull out the BFI and all that stuff But anyway, that's another issue for another day. I got my picks, okay with the Yankees formidable pitching Be careful because if anybody's gonna bend against the Yankees they might they might lose their everything else, man Okay, because I'm telling you the Yanks look good.

No, that's not true If you took it that way that's on you Just because you're taking it. Oh, sir way. What's the problem? That call is a wonderful man of faith And he preaches from the mountain tops. Well, here's a problem. There's no doubt in my mind

1:45:43He scheduled bible studies before and he prays just said well he couldn't have been dyke in park anymore because he got option I did not show Talked data brown. I'm dumb. Sorry. I didn't I didn't make him get sit down So apparently it's a bum or a bird bath shower. It's same thing bird pal. So you say bum and Aggies are the same blood I'm gonna break I'm so disappointed in y'all No, no, no be disappointed in yourself when you're the one on the island and Everyone else has never heard of it. Don't say I'm disappointed in y'all You should be disappointed in yourself We're not taking a blame for that. I didn't make this up. I swear to god. I didn't make it up I heard it from somebody else 713 212 5 7 on 844 more your sari's You're needed on sports talk 7 on 8 All right, we got some people finally coming to my defense um Aggie shower

1:46:46And then there is another term for it. It's not nearly as polite as that Hmm So describe your your definition of an Aggie shower again would be like to wash your face wash your arms wash your armpits Everything up like in front of the sink that you would do not anything below the waist No, cuz you're gonna be a full shower then yeah, that's not a horse bath then people like Matt's thinking of a horse bath like no horse Yeah, you get a hose bath and they're doing what I mean, I guess you could clean down there if you wanted to yeah, I mean, yeah, whatever you Anything that would be done in front of the sink As compared to getting into the shower so a hose bath well tray who is an Aggie says in school We called an Aggie shower where you wash your hair and you bathe your body just with the shampoo and drippings to get out of their quick What you said that's what he called an Aggie that's not safe Aggie's very like that y'all got nasty

1:47:47You're gonna hurt you. I don't know let the samples rip that's gross That's terrible. I don't know. Well, you do the opposite. You're in there for about two and a half hours I'm the opposite I take a cougar shower long shower. What a cougar shower is yeah 35 40 minutes Absolutely disturbing now when I come to your house No, do not you better not be running up my water bill. Are you're gonna be showering my place?

1:48:51I don't know what I'm gonna do with myself for the next I don't know several months But anyway, I have absolutely heard of an Aggie shower now my understanding of an Aggie shower is what you said except I thought that it did include the other regions In male version of what a horse bath there you go That's what I need you to say that's thank you for nae. Yeah, yeah, you definitely can go downstairs if you want to but I mean You know, it depends how long much time you got. Yeah, I want to clean the bad man So I can't believe that all these people thank you. Thank you. What are you from her name? I'm from Fritzwood. Okay Yeah, I listen to you guys every day.

Let's go to Uh Brian on 7 on a Brian. Good morning to you Yeah, Matt the uh the hygiene technique you were describing. I've always called that a french hour But uh, I find using Aggie in this place perfectly acceptable. So I got the gist of so he hasn't heard of what you're talking about You got a little print shower I don't know if I made that up mad made that up to Jonathan do I make that up? Yeah, you got one person to back you up out of How are thousands and thousands of listeners? And I honestly quite frankly Renee's kind of felt sad for sound like she's feeling sad for you Okay, I could have called it a host. How are you willing to do that? No, same thing called yeah, yeah, I'm just saying you made it up or your wife did Wizard wife from Feels like they might be saying that

1:50:53And she she's got Aggie's family all over the place Hmm, I know I feel like Aggie's just got a real bad rep today Um no if it gets a job done better no shower at all right We got you guess. All right, so under the definition of an Aggie shower. Have you taken an Aggie shower in your life? Never So you when you clean yourself you're going full you have plenty of time to get that full shower like standing in front of the sink And Washing your armpits and hindquarters. Yeah He's never done that no, I don't think I've done that I will hop in the shower and do armpits and And what High and quarters real quick if you're like super and you if you're like in some kind of like literally You should have been leaving the house or you got to make a fly. I don't I've seen Aggie showers at ruggies Oh, what yeah, of course What does that mean you've seen somebody

1:51:55Yeah, the odorant you see some alone. Yeah, you've seen somebody scrubbing their Just the upper part But he's sticking around You going to Matt I mean the ruckus met in his clean. It is clean if you're gonna do it. If you're gonna have an Aggie shark I'm also having one with the clean one Better than going to like to the what's what's the competitor? Uh rubs Stucky's stuck. It's stuck you. That's Boma. I'm stuck. He's good. He can go get a be can roll Get a can roll a burger and a clean stuff get her head from backside I'm that note. What the hell's wrong with you Uh, it's anything goes Friday and the Texans are going to lose and The Astros aren't playing anymore There's your answer go rockets go rockets by the way I went to practice again the

1:52:58Hey, what come on. Let's be positive on these parts. I said hoping for the three seed I'm already me cranky as it is lack of sleep the leeching news be positive about the local basketball I just said hoping for the three seed Yay, maybe I'm hoping to get out of first round Been a minute Dr. Roto is not up next. Let's get your fantasy football questions ready Ross What is today's edition of believe or not? No, I'll find out. We got an hour to figure it out. It's Aggie shower. That's what bad believe it or not Don't go go to break that just don't you know age 57 on sports talk server that This is Matt and Ross in the morning Oh Wabber claims

1:53:59Have to be made And I've got trade proposals for lying my way My first round pick Turned out to be a big flop I don't know which wide receiver I need to drop Oh Dr. Roto give me the news. I really don't know what I should do My quarterback keeps getting sacked. I've got a bad case of fantasy blues With It is the fastest 30 minutes of major marketing radio we spend it with Dr. Roto every Friday here on sports talk seven ninety good doctor good morning Do we miss our picklumps and browns players? I know there are plenty available probably is about 36 hours ago What's funny you said that there's a couple of guys I like I love Harold fanning

1:55:00Means a really good tight end and Dan Zell Boston looks great for a young rookie receiver Quinchon juggins, you know, there's something called flop lag empty Which means a guy who flopped for you last week all of a sudden this week looks great I thought juggins was going to score touchdown against Carolina last week comes back and scores one last night I think those team that we need to be worried about is Pittsburgh I mean look they just it's you know rogers is fighting with McCarthy They trade Porter the defense plays well some weeks. They don't other weeks I think they'll play better next week But man they've been a figured out quickly. All right. Let's get to our first set of international games that will involve the cults and the commanders Actually, they played in real last week, but this is the early morning game We saw the cults last week the ground game was kind of stagnant will that be that way for two straight weeks No, no, you want to get Jonathan Taylor in your lineups I think he scores a hundred You get to 120 yards rushing into touchdowns. I hate these games. I don't think most people like them You got to get your lineups in early. So please don't go to bed on Saturday night and forget about this game

1:56:03Because it's going to start early So make sure you have Taylor in your lineup make sure you have McClure in in your lineup make sure that you have Josh Downes in your lineup and Tyler Lauren in your lineup for sure Packers have been a massive disappointment the bucks are oh and three Baker may field is out How is that in fact impacting our Our our positional players for both the buccaneers and the packers this week Okay, so let me tell everybody out there about jalen daniel's down daniel's played at canzes And he's kind of like malik willis to me got either dual threat guy can run I absolutely expect him to rush for I don't know 30 40 50 yards maybe a touchdown He's got a live arm too. Got a big army. It's not the most accurate guy out there But he's certainly athletic. I think a buca is still in play Bucky Irving is still in play. We saw how badly the packers defense played last week So I think Tampa could put up two touchdowns the opposite side of the footballs where I want to act So first of all, Tampa is really good at the run and green bay can't run at all

1:57:04March on Lloyd I didn't cut this guy this last this past week to my waivers So let me tell you who I really like that really like Jordan love. He's he's a great play Christian Watson I'm a big fan of what we call the hometown narrative the guy went to Tampa plant high school He's playing in Tampa Bay It's gonna have like 20 of his friends and family there dude's definitely scoring I like him. I like Matthew golden and I like Tucker craft I think Jordan love throws for at least two touchdowns and maybe three Ronald, I've learned from you about these over under totals in Vegas the Bengals Jaguars is 51 and a half That means we're all gonna feast on those players fantasy wise correct Yes, we're gonna feast and here's why because normally these are the teams that you have to push them to go out of their shell Like Cincinnati we know they have great skill players, but they don't play all their games quickly But if Jacksonville scoring then Cincinnati has to play faster So I think this becomes a pace up game. So you want everybody. I mean literally you want your bar You want cover Lawrence you want to and you want chase brown you want your mark chase you want dud

1:58:09T Higgins Mike Chaseki Parker Washington. I love Brenton strange Cincinnati cannot cover tight end last week the duo of Darnell Washington and Pat Freyrmouth When five for 97 the week before we remember with Dalton Schultz and then so Brenton strange definitely gonna I think finds the end zone. I love Parker Washington as well. I think this is a game to watch this week We were talking a little bit ago about the surprising Cleveland Browns at three and one the biggest surprise to me are the Raiders at three No the chiefs not a surprise me at three. No How do you see this one shaking out? Yeah, I look they improve the Raiders improve their offensive line and they have good coaching I don't know why anybody brought brought Pete Towell back that made no sense to me But Kubeak knows how to coach offense and you're seeing it and Kurt cousins is stabilizing this team And he will be playing for as long as he can right there not rushing to get rid of him because Mendoza is learning So I really like what I see there from both teams now Brock Bauer's

1:59:11Was sensational last week That's I don't expect that to happen again this week. I think that the chief defense is going to hold the chiefs down a little bit I'm sorry the chief defense is gonna hold the Raiders down a little bit So I do like Patrick Mahomes though. I think Patrick Mahomes this is his division and he is wants to be for no He doesn't want the Raiders to be for no. I like Rishi Rice to have a big week I like Kenneth Walker to have a big week and Travis Kelsey to have a big week on the other side Bauer's okay Jentie's okay, but I don't think anybody explodes You mentioned Travis Kelsey and a lot of folks are always chasing for tight ends is do you think in your mind? He's all the way back as being a prime time pass catching tight in at least for 2026 Well, look when you look at them they want to run the football and they're doing that with Kenneth Walker They've got Rishi Rice who's terrific, but do they really have that second receiver in a tight long Thornton as it's a view worthy I don't think any of these guys have I've stepped up the way the chiefs want them to so yeah It's Travis Kelsey. I'm shocked too

2:00:12He would not have been the first name on my bingo card But he's playing pretty darn well now that being said if I have Kelsey in a fantasy league I'm trading him right now. I am trading him because his values as sky highs. It's gonna be Roto the chargers are a massive disappointment at 0 and 3 they're going against a awesome defense against the Seahawks up in Seattle How do you see that playing out? Not well for the chargers. I don't know what to tell you MT I like the chargers coming in this year. I like Justin Herbert. I like their weapons But they look lost they look lost and they were beating Buffalo as well, but they couldn't hold on So now you expect them to beat Seattle? Maybe it was drew off, but not with Sam Darnel the only thing that helps them is right now Jadarian price is a mess. Okay. He may or may not even play. They've got a manual Wilson. They got George Hullani Zack Sharbinay is a guy that people might want to be picking up off Waivers pretty soon because I think his he may be back in the next three or four weeks But as long as JSN is there as long as AJ Barnars there as long as that's defenses there

2:01:17I don't think this game explodes certainly not the way the chargers are playing All right Monday night football I will not ever sit drink London again because he's got a decent quarterback going for them The Falcons offensively again. It's only been one week, but do you feel like they are On all cylinders at this point Yeah, I mean this game is a 47 and a half. I think it's going to go over that. I do these are pace-up teams The Saints play quickly Traversey Chan is out for the next four weeks. He's on the IR come Marys there They may be throwing the ball more Be John look great Michael Penex looked very after it. I loved Drake London and listen Kyle Pits is in play this week Kyle Pits who has done nothing I think is absolutely in play this week. I like Juane Johnson This is one of those games where just like with Jacksonville Cincinnati Caroline and Detroit and Landon New Orleans you get all your players in for those teams How scared of you about what the Patriots and sputtering offensively so far as they go to play the bills Well, you know look if you examine the Patriots games I think you're going to see a team that's moved the ball and then made critical mistakes

2:02:21Right, and maybe it's missed field goal. Maybe it's a formal. Maybe it's interception. Maybe it's a bad sack So you've got you've got to complete your drives in the NFL or you don't get that many in each game And you can't make mistakes So the problem here is they're just making too many mistakes you want to make mistakes against Buffalo Good luck with that. There's one way to beat Buffalo running the football down the routes Who can do that? Ramon dr. Stevenson can do that. Travian Henderson. He bounces to the outside Buffalo is very good The pursuit. There's good up the middle So if Ramon dr. Stevenson can hold on to that football and not fumble and play well The Patriots have a shot if they can't is going to be over quickly because when your best receivers mac columns You're not winning all right. We're going to your phone calls next here with dr. Odo at 7132125797132125790 start line them up You got a question about a particular player or team let us know 7132125790 so Dallas Houston Joey Porter Jr. is going to be apparently ready to go the back miraculously dr. Odo was feeling a lot better

2:03:26Can he help this quickly because that secondary against the Ravens and Rio was awful last week I mean look the defense is terrible. Joey Porter Jr.'s good player I think it was a fair trade in terms of value. I mean he's a difference maker. I do think so But I mean, is he ready to play with this week? I think this game comes down to the detections being a mess I mean the Tamiko Ryan's maybe going down with it with the ship here if he doesn't Get away from the offensive coordinator because something has to give Either you support CJ Stroud and you back him and you pay him and you keep him or you decide to get rid of him and move on Because your team is going to go in the toilet ball pretty soon. I mean you've got to be winning these games You've got to be beating Dallas now Nico Collins I think he should be able to get 120 yards in a touchdown if he does that are you running up? Where's David monk umory? I think I saw his face on a milk carton someone It's a problem. You give me more woody marks. I want more monk umory monk umory still a good player They're not using him properly

2:04:26So I'm hoping that Nico Collins's return Gives this offense the structure it needs because without him they didn't know what they were doing They didn't know who they were throwing to they didn't know who was running the ball So this is really important here. So I like Stroud I like Collins. I will always like Dalton Schultz after that I don't trust monk umory and I don't trust woody marks on the other side I mean the Texans defense has not looked great either So I mean how do you not play pickins? How do you not play lamb and how do you not play jivante Williams? I think you play them all and if you're Houston you hope that the play calling gets better because it's not been good All right on the phones next 713-212-57onnie for dr. Roto 713-212-57onnie

2:05:26And All your dreams will come true when you get the good advice from dr. Roto Two lines are open if you want to get in your questions for your fantasy football team It's 713-212-57onnie 321-257onnie time now for Dr. Roto's obligatory questions from sports RV what do you got for them all my dreams are not coming true dr. Roto with Justin Herbert Two leagues I mean how much do I stick with him as waivers options include I mean brosette mario de cousins, you know the the usual quarterback trek on the waivers Is Bryce young available? No, I tried to claim him, but somebody got him from me. Oh Yeah, you got to move on honestly. I mean it doesn't get better and I mean I'm if he's torn 300 yards against Seattle I don't think so so here's what happens when you're on three at this point which hopefully you're not but if you are one two

2:06:29I got one win. Okay, so All right, so that's good because if you're you know, you don't want to be one in three you don't want to be on four So sometimes you got to start going to matchups and saying listen. I got to I got to move on So I mean look Michael Penex this week not a bad matchup against new ones. What about brosette mario de Can we do this? Hello, Roto. What can we do this? I want you to propose a trade for me. I need a running back I'll give you Trevor Lawrence. He's okay MT easy easy who are your quarterbacks? Jared golf and Trevor Lawrence All right, who's this running who are you running back? Well, give me right back. I got Quinshaw and Gentian love. I'm not giving up any of those for a quarterback But you might have to at some point. You can have Keeling black. I got Jalen right off waivers. You can have him Roto empty. He's even he's being rude to me isn't no yesterday He was like give me one of your starting running backs. I got to tie it in for you. Yeah, shut your mom ass up, man No, so I mean mario de brosette. I'm just I'm for for this week

2:07:30Brosette those are your choices. I would play brosette. I think that that game is going to be higher scoring than last week's sloppy mess in New York. All right. Don't say I didn't offer. Thank you very much. Let's go to Brian for dr. Roto on seven on a Brian. What's your question for dr. Roto? Hey man. Hey dr. Roto. I got a white receiver predictor man. I need to start one of these guys Chicago's adunes or Denver's section or Philadelphia wicks I would say wicks. He's going to be the number one receiver there by the way. So it's um Yeah, I mean, Devon to Smith's not expected to play so wicks wicks all the way By the way, Ross Yes, you trouble Lawrence for Jeremiah love yesterday. If I've used really yesterday Yesterday, okay Nothing. It's great for MT, but I'm saying it's great for you. Let me tell you who's the Denver running back that I just picked I picked up. It doesn't do much. Uh, who's the second running back there? Uh, yes, yeah, Harvey. Harvey. All of them

2:08:32Oh, look, you can play golf for sure And then if you had love at least you're better, but I mean Lawrence is great. I mean, he's a great Oh, come on Trade live trade on the air. I can't but he literally would only have two running backs in otherwise zero I got love Gentile and you're right. We wear a six point touchdown league two Uh, Caleb ball on jalen ride or my only other running backs. So it's like it's bad out there I got a lot of receivers got Luther burden on the bench jalen coca Josh downs. I breeze halls out I need a running back roto tell him I think Josh down you Josh downs Jones Josh downs a good player see Jason and Katie for dr. Roto go ahead Jason. I'm trying to negotiate. He's trying to negotiate Do it empty do it. I wrote a real quick roto uh injury above him. I got jalen on the right or jade on price and then another one mcconkey wicks and then a very very very touchdown dependent league Water or neighbors

2:09:34Okay, so first of all, I like neighbors um a little bit this week I think that it's going to be a higher scoring game than most that have to throw the ball. I like to likely as well So lad and wicks I don't see the lad boom week, but I see wicks having a week. I do I think that that Philadelphia game could be sneaky and if Devon to Smith is out like I expect him to be I've no problem starting wicks. Here's the problem with jade rian price. He hasn't looked good. He's fumbled Mike McDonald is not happy and he is not at a hundred percent. So let's talk about jalen right versus ollie Gordon jalen right is the more talented player He's faster he's shifty or ollie Gordon is just stronger and better at the goal line But I don't want either of these guys. This team makes score three rushing touchdowns all year. Who wants it? I don't want it All right go a lot of folks like him over jade rian price there you go. Thank you for that seven one three two one two five seven A lot of tweets into the pits or huckinson That's I think pitch gonna have a good week this week. All right. Uh here is from h channel limited Please ask dr. Rodo if releasing Brian Thomas is the move for a waiver wire guy like don tv and wicks or Raymond from the bears

2:10:41I would do it for wicks this week. So Brian Thomas june is not bad and I told you I like the jaguar's offense a lot It's the problem is he's seeing good cornerbacks on him. He's had a very bad stretch even this week dj turners pretty good guy So he's been okay not great and because they have parkour washin's in because they have jacobie mires because they have tuton He's getting the short end of the stick Chuck or young or Murray or my homes for cornerbacks Um, man, I'm not Murray in this lifetime. I like my homes, but Tyler shuck has been fantastic And that game I think is gonna shoot out and with uh each and not a hundred percent He could throw three touchdowns. Give me Tyler shock. I know that sounds crazy. I look good. All right. Are you big on jordan adison Let me tell you something never in this lifetime. Do you rely on kyle and marie for anything? Okay guys not good But do I like adison a little bit only if just and jeperson is out now if i'm in a soda

2:11:43I'm gonna blitz muleek willis Brian floris is a revenge narrative if i've ever heard one of my life and secondly Am i playing jeperson? No because i probably think i can win this game and i need him next week So adison is a play, but you cannot trust kyle all right ladies and gentlemen We asked dr. Odo once a week to give us the no doubt about it. Can't miss fantasy You can't use jimmy or give it a week by the way We'll give us right now dr. Odo's lock of the week Yeah, i like parkour washington this week. So assuming that brine tom is jr cdj turner Cincinnati slot cornerback just went on i r good luck with that covering parkour washington unless a you know Get a penalty on every time the guy gets good ones around this guy's been sensational I think they're going to have to play for four quarters. I think this game shoots out into the 60s I think parkour washington goes seven for one oh two and a touchdown that is dr. Odo's

2:12:43Lock of the week all right Ross The commission of our league is dr. Odo the all time he is he's he's stepping in no he's not he's gonna make his Trace he's gonna force a trade no i can't do that But yeah, who am i gonna start this week? I but i can't even start running back because i accidentally put quinch on in the flex So he's already out of my flex plot sit. Oh, well, I know I absolutely 100% I said it last night because i the game started and i was like oh my god I have in my flex. I'm an idiot. I literally said that last night roda.

Odo trying to help out our fantasy football team helping out you helping out me and takes to a tango I don't have a dance partner. Oh, well Uh, Rossi we're gonna do it. I'm gonna do an audio non-flora story this week And it's a story we talked about very early in the show of the maniacs for the six o'clock But I want to give you a chance to let you hear the full version. Yeah, hmm We find interesting stories that occur outside the state of Florida And share them with the people of Houston It's time for non-flora I'll stand for non-flora Store them coast to coast will bring the strange and wild

2:14:54No alligator tails, but something that will make you smile Oh It's time for laughs from far and wide In this crazy world There's nowhere All right early this morning I brought up on the old Matt Rossi and Mortick show about Michael McDonald And a family reunion now another day another penny sent me this on Twitter Okay, he got it off of the yacht rock video Twitter account of a St. Louis TV station talking about Michael McDonald And a member of his family he never knew he had here is the story from the St. Louis TV station Tell me about yourself. What do you do? And so he said well, I'm a musician and he went on to tell me that in fact uh looks like we'll be touring This summer and we'll be stopping into we'll be stopping in St. Louis

2:15:57So who is Michael's birth father? Well, it's someone you might have heard of or better yet It's someone you might have heard on the radio. Yeah, he's kind of well known Then I finally said Are you Michael McDonald and he said uh Yeah, I'm afraid so Yeah, Michael McDonald of the Dubie Brothers the guy who wrote and performed songs like what a fool believes and I keep forgetting And the fact that they had the same name was a complete coincidence. I was unnamed. So it was my mom. K who named me Can you see me all right? I can Michael FaceTime just father so I could ask him about his journey I always carried that guilt with me and But just to know that he was okay and that he had a good life and our life certainly that I wasn't probably able to afford him at that time in my life You know was Was you know a great reward and I really appreciate you giving me a shot in this world and You've always been heroes in my story Adopted parents who you know really gave Michael everything a child needs you know in terms of love and security

2:17:03And when they first met in person and he just put his arms out and Just gave me a big old bear hug and told me he loved me and and I told him the same It was a wonderful wonderful Experience to to see Michael and me to get to meet my son, you know after all these years You know thinking about him oh and Michael has kids which makes the other Michael a grandpa Yeah, that was you know, I mean it's still that still thinking into me You know, I mean I Is what a gift you know in fact after we hung up he called back to say one more thing in my daughter And I was you know as a daughter and all you would hope for as a parent and And the kids are to the greatest kids you'll ever meet and I just so proud of them spoken like a true grandpa I think it's it's an amazing tribute to the fact that adoption it is a wonderful option Steve Harris first alert for all right a few things about that So Mike amic Donald and a woman

2:18:04Had procreated and they put him up for adoption Mike amic Donald in this girl were 14 years old hmm Wow And then so they put up the the the the child for adoption the right thing to do Yes, and his name is Michael McDonald Yes, the kid the now the adult here's the crazy part of it so He's 74 is Michael McDonald the son is 60 which is just weird yes, but the third thing is if you look at Michael McDonald Which really isn't weird the guy Michael McDonald the son looks just like Michael McDonald the the singer So you looks like his dad looks like his dad That makes sense and that's the non-floor story there. Thank you, Matt. Thank you to first news St. Louis Good. Oh, I'm doing some but a hell you are not a Michael McDonald voice It's gonna be great. I'm sorry John It's good if it's good to let me do it if it's bad you'll tell me to stop please John and then Just turn this off. I'll just try it

2:19:04So are you gonna turn his mic off? All right Ross what you got for your non-floor story Well, let me take you to four word Texas. Oh, we're not going very far Where unfortunately a daycare is facing a one million dollar lawsuit After it was discovered there were hell holding a toddler fight club What at the daycare Yes, Heather and Richard Harris filing lawsuit after it was caught on video a Teacher encouraging four year old children to physically fight each other Also through a child to the floor like a human rag doll Um, there's also a bit uh, this is not shocking. There have been several incidences at this daycare slash Montessori school As now these parents are very upset and there has been an investigation by Texas human Health and human services

2:20:05Also their child care licensing division Arca Montessori school if you're in Fort Worth Don't send your kids to arca Montessori school the facility also has a hits history of uh safety violations 16 citations since opening in January of 24 How are they still operating by the way? First of all how our four year olds even know what a fight club is She was trying to encourage the kids to fight each other I don't know if they're betting on it. Oh my that'd be worse. Yeah. I don't know if they had like a little Davy At a minus 250 or so would you like to hear a Montessori story of mine? Okay. I was in seven years old in 1979, okay, let move to Houston and uh, we Went on a bus To some event where we're going, but some of the kids and the bus were not behaving So the teacher took the four or five students that she liked inside the uto To get some cold drinks. It was a hot summer day in Houston. Okay. Left the rest of us on the bus. Oh, you were one of the bad kids with no no drinks

2:21:06Hmm no air conditioning on the bus. Uh-huh. We all ran home to tell our parents And the Montessori school was closed within a month My mom my brother went to a school that got shut down They had a bad incident and my mom was interviewed on TV really used to have the VHS Yeah, you cannot play favorites and you cannot play five club with four year olds. That was going on with these daycares That's crazy. We all have daycare incidents. That's crazy. You think part of the reason why I'm the way I am Oh, I know it was that night into it was August 1979 night terror Thomas Jonathan what you're not in florist story You know what I'm sorry. This one's a weird one. I don't know if it's this was happening to Houston apparently Um on august 7th Popeye's customer sue for 1.5 million over condom like object and chicken A Condom or a condiment condom condom like object okay Uh, apparently two customers went to the fast food chain in Houston, Texas and were repulsed by eating uh eating fried chicken

2:22:09They claim the con like foreign object Uh, in a petition they said that When they bans it if he's checking a media discover would appear to be a con like foreign object with the you know the late Text coming out of the chicken. Hmm. It was not ordinary. They said Now they're still fighting this and But what's their fight knower what are they gonna fight for I guess the member would be how much money I mean if you bite something with a condom on it I mean, why should you get in return? Ross your thoughts I get no thoughts on that all right. How would what would you check it? cops say to win I don't know free 12 piece Does that say a free 12 piece? I mean do you think the binding into a condom for the minute I have dollars? I mean, you don't know it's been at though. That's fair. We're back to 50 then I was like, yes, like you eatin something and a needle there you know you can I tell you uh a pop-eye story really quick We're in um Pennsylvania with my daughter's volleyball tournament amount a month ago.
