Kicking off our number three is one of the best in the business. In all pro and also a terrific human being on top of all of it. Currency of Colgate from the Atlanta Falcons. Ladies and gentlemen, Bijon Robinson here on the program. All right, Bijon, good to see you. You know, sir, I'm doing great. Greg C. As well, do you hear me?

Yeah, I can absolutely hear you. I can also see you in your Colgate-issued gear. I can see you. Oh, yeah, look at this. We got toothpaste. We've got what do I see? The toothbrush. We see the mouthwash on top of it. Sure, yes, sir. Are you at the dentist right now? Are you literally there? No, I'm actually at the office at the house. Okay. I don't know. It looks like it's so, it looks so immaculate. It looks like you are about to get your teeth cleaned. Bijon. It's definitely been a great partnership. You know, with Colgate. Can you help me like, I'm very big on just for living and health problems before they start on the field, especially before this game week one. So, you know, with the partnership, you know, just for bringing more health problems, so they start is, you know, very important. And just with the Colgate total, you know, with the toothbrush and the toothpaste, as you see, it's something that I want everybody to have and to grab

because, you know, not only for me as an athlete, but for everybody just in their day-to-day life, that's one of the most important things is to make sure that your oral health is where it needs to be. So, that's why I've been loving this partnership with Colgate. And, you know, I hope that everybody can go and get them some Colgate. So, you know, they'll get ready for it. This new season of life. So, you know, be great. So, as you run by defenders, you want them to say, oh, Bijon is minty fresh. Is that what you're looking for? Is that what the season goal is? Right there? At most definitely, you know, it's definitely, it can be a distraction for the defenders. Oh, yeah. They do snow-good breaths. So, you know, that's smooth. It's like that line for out of fear. You ever see the movie Hoosiers? Bijon? I'm not. All right. Write that down for a spare time. Well, it's the best sports movie ever. The coach, the coach who's played by the actor Gene Hackman, tells his player, you know, he wants him to guard him so closely,

he wants to know the type of gum, the other player is chewing and the kid comes back to the bench and he says, dentine, which is a flavor of gum. I know I'm dating myself, my God. That's a lot of fun to say. Five coaches say that and I never knew where it came from. And now that I know that's actually pretty crazy. We're connecting dots for Bijon Robinson here on the Rich Eyes and Show. Congratulations on your new deal, Bijon. What do you think that that that that connotes? What do you think that sends out into the world? That. Yeah. I think it's cool just for the position, for the running back position. Just to continue to grow and to continue to see the value of it. You don't have to like, you know, playing that position in a field past past years have been like, a little devalue. So for us to continue to get it back on the right track and to show the value in that position

has been pretty special. So, you know, even with Jermir, you know, doing the same thing, you're John Taylor, like, it just shows the importance of having that kind of player, those kind of those kind of impacts on the offends on the team. And I hope that other guys get to see the, you know, add value to the position as well. And these negative next year. Is there a running back text chain? B-jong? There's not a running back text chain, but I definitely know all the guys and I've talked to all the guys, especially like in the past couple of years, like we've all seen each other at in a bit or something like that. So, you know, we always talk about it. We always talk about just the growth of it. And, you know, I think it's, I think it's pretty special like how we just all support each other. But we're all still trying to compete against each other as well on the field. So it's definitely cool there. Is Derek Henry the OG of this conversation? B-jong?

He's the OG. He's the OG, like, it was cool talking to him after they got done, like a month ago. And, you know, it's always cool to see the legends. And I know he's still the best to leave now, but, you know, just all that he's done to believe in all that. He's a continue to do in the years coming, like, you know, it's cool to see those kind of guys just support it. So, and back to you as a player. And just at the person too. So I have so much respect for all those guys and I know they're going to be the best for the team to see them. So, B-jong Robinson here on the Rich Eyes and Show. So what can you reveal the new Atlanta offense will look like with Kevin Stofansky? How different is it from previous years for you as a professional? B-jong? I think it's going to be very, very explosive. You know, I know Kevin, Tommy, like, they're just huge offensive lines.

And even what Tommy Reese has Osea and just gets a bigger relationship with him. And, you know, the things that he expects from us, but, you know, I think the thing with him is he's very creative. You know, he sees matchups and he wants to exploit them and he wants to do at a high level. And he's very competitive. So, you know, I love to see like the growth that's that we've been having throughout just OTAs and training camp and, you know, even getting to talk with him every single day. It's been pretty special. So, you know, obviously, you can talk about, we got to talk all I want about it and be all excited about it all I want about it. But, you know, ultimately, we have to go out there and execute it at the highest level. And all I'm going to say about it is I'm just very excited to be in this offense and to show the product that we've been working on, obviously, the past for a month or so. Well, I'll be honest, B-jong. I'll always shoot you straight when you come on this program.

Didn't see much of it in the preseason at all. Now, I know there wasn't a lot of starters playing, but when Tua was out there as he's going to be coming up on Sunday in Pittsburgh, there's not a lot of confidence of people who have watched what's gone on during August. What can you tell us about the confidence level with Tua getting the start and this offense, B-jong? Yeah, I think, you know, I know, I know situations happen, you know, plays happen and, you know, there's a lot of people out there that talk about it. But ultimately, ultimately, like, we, when we do a practice, it's been fun to watch, fun to be a part of. I know people don't see it, but, you know, that's why this camera is used to the game. But, you know, we're all, they're all confident that him, man, like he's, you know, been doing great in training camp, you know, and it's cool to, you know, he has, he has experience, he has so much experience in this league. And, you know, I know that we have been supporting him through everything and, you know, our job,

he knows our job is to make him look good on the field. And, you know, we just say, just, just give them both our hands and, and, you know, we'll do the rest for you. So, like, you know, I know him having that confidence in us has been great for him. And so now, like, it's our job to go out there on Sunday and put it, put it to show, put it to work. It just, it just happened with it. Well, not to turn you into my information, man, but I'm about to attempt to, what is Michael Panics look like to you? Is he close? Yeah, man, I mean, you know, he's still been practicing, been doing all the necessary things, all the, all the recovery to, you know, to get himself ready to go. And, you know, he knows that we all, we have, he has the most support in us and we support him ultimately, everybody does. But, you know, with Mike, it's just just the process, like just the process of the plans that they have for him and making sure that, you know,

he's succeeded to just get better on the field. So, you know, we're, we're going to be back to him all that we have and just just just keep rolling from there. All right. There's last couple of minutes. There's for me, B. John, you know, you're not the only one on the screen with an eye in the first and the last name, okay? So, we all have fantasy leagues. You've heard this conversation many, many times, okay? Yeah. There's one in which I have the second overall pick and it's the one I want to win the most. Okay. And it looks like I'm going to be able to draft you tomorrow night. Okay. So, this is a flat out straight up for me question. 366 touches last year for you. Third most in the National Football League. Are we going to see more? Do you think more touches this year? Yeah. You know, you know, when you know me, I'm just trying to do it every weekend. Like I said last year, trying to do whatever I can to help this team win. So, if that's what it takes, then let's go. If it's more, then let's go. Okay.

As long as you win your fantasy. No, I appreciate that because when you said this team, I know you're really mean the Atlanta Falcons. Yeah. I mean, there's an eye in which you're part of this team. Yeah. We're all part of the same team. My fantasy team, the Atlanta Falcons, Colgate, we're all part of one big happy family here that we want to win and be minty fresh at the end of the day. Okay. What are your goals personally this year? Statistics that you're willing to share. V. John. So, so the goal that I set for myself like is just be better than last year. You know, yes, I write specific goals. I try to keep the private, but just make sure that I'm, I perform better in all areas of my game and just building that confidence, you know, you know, better than last year because, you know, if if I can do that, then I've been, that means I'm building something right. Not for myself, but for this team. So,

God, well, it works and I'm gonna go out there and give my all. You know, I've been very confident in training camp. So, you know, I just want to go out there and play against the other team. Okay. So, I understand you won't share the numbers of goals. What about the categories? Will you share the categories of your goals? So, they're all they're all in separate categories. You know, I have my faith goals, my family goals, and obviously the football goals leadership. But there is goals like for the rushing, there's goals for receiving and then oh yeah. Absolutely. It's all time to be like for the whole team goals. They're on there too. But I think it's the forerunce to write them down. It's looking at them every day. And not just myself, but for everybody because, you know, if you look at your goals every day, like that's that makes you very confident and want to go out there and do it. So, not it's got to do it. Okay. Oh, I forgot one other team that we're aligned on this week.

It's called Texas football because I'm a Michigan Wolverine. I will be as close to Burn Orange. I might like wear bevo horns. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'll watch McConaughey movies. I'm ready. This is it. Well, what do you have a score prediction? You have more than them. I don't care. One point. I don't care. You know, I think it's going to be a, I can tell people I'm like, we win this game this week. We won't lose again. The rest is either. That's a lot of luck. Okay. Let's do it. We just had cam. We just had cam. Hey, we're done last hour. I'm like, you better be careful. B. John might come up to you before the game. I'm going to say, yeah, I look forward to you being helpfully, hopefully having that moment for you. Before I let you go, one last word on Colgate, people can go to Colgate.com or follow at Colgate, US on social media for for what? B. John. For the so for the Colgate total acquisition and it's for the two breaths,

the two pace. Okay. And I hope that everybody does want, you know, the website and or in stores that purchases it and continue to keep purchasing it because that's, you know, you want your smile to be the best, you want your or help to be the best. So you can, you know, fill your best self in life. So, you know, I hope everybody gets on the wave and joins the party this team because it's only to help you grow as a person. May you floss the competition, sir. May do so. Okay. Listen, I'm just trying to leave you in a better spot in which I found you. Certainly. That might be my fantasy team's mantra. This is called you donkeys because that's what the rest of the guys are in my league. They're donkeys. That's right. That's it. What happened? I haven't won in a long time. So I'm hoping that that's a streak ends as well. Thank you, Pejon. Good luck to you this season. And I hope to

stay in touch. Let's do so. Yes, I appreciate you, man. Right back after the beach on Robins and everybody right here on the Rich Eyes and Show from the Atlanta Falcons and courtesy of Colgate. And then Texas football this weekend. I'll be rooting. I'll be rooting for you. You've got the archmaning card. I want that to be as valuable as possible. I want to do me this favor. Find out how much the card is worth before kickoff. And then let's compare it to after. I mean, it's already priceless. Let's go. I'm sure it's not. I'm sure there's a price on it. It's maybe priceless to you, sir. I'm just saying. That's all I'm doing. All right. It's Pejon gone. He's hung up. He gone. All right. So let's talk that's predict the NFC South. Since I don't know how many of us are going to have the Atlanta Falcons atop that flow chart. But we have yet to predict the NFC South. Let us do that right now. Chris Brock, when you're first up, predict the NFC South and please know this is Dicey in your own household. Dicey and man, you live. You're now married.

True. To an Atlanta Falcons fan. Yeah, their success is my success. Except that they're not going to have any this year. Oh, that's not true. I have the Falcons fourth. Oh, the quarterback is going to be an issue all season. I think they I think if you ask Falcons fans, they want to bottom out so they can get an actual quarterback for next year. The Panthers third. I like the Saints. I think they're going to be better. I was second place better. Huh? I had been talking about them winning the division. Most of the off season. The Jordan Tyson injury is not great. That's correct. Alvin Camarro going down for a little bit not great. That's correct. And we talked to Baker last week. He seems like he's on a mission. So I'm going to have the box winning the division Saints second. TJ Jefferson, you have the floor on this subject, man. I'm just going to be very honest with you guys. I hope so. I had a I had a list pre-remembering B. Jones coming on the show. And then out of respect, I flipped my list around full disclosure because I didn't want to do this to him because he took time out of

it because day two. Yeah. Come on. Our show. So I think the Panthers finishing fourth play. Okay. I got the Falcons finishing third. Okay. Much like Chris. I'm with them. They're bucks in the same league. I've been I've been high on the bucks. I mean, the Saints rather pretty much all summer. They were your sleeper team. They were one of my sleeper teams. I'm start finishing watching quarterbacks on Netflix. Right. Couple things popped into my head. One, I think we're a little too hard on the Tennessee Titans. And two, some of the box this bucks team and the way they rally around Baker may feel. Yes. We feel like they're going to do the same and I read them to victory in this division. Well, I'm glad you're honest. Thank you. Thanks. I've got the Saints finishing last again. Yeah. I can see it. Come on guys. Let's see it. I just know every just for a full season. Let's see who stays healthy. It's not that I don't believe in them. I need to see it. Like this is called a prediction. And until I see it, I'm not confident in it. I've got them last.

I do have the Falcons third. I have the Falcons third because of the quarterback situation in that regard as well. They also lost both of their stud pass rushes from last year's draft. One for the season. One for half the season. Yep. Yep. So new coach knew everything. We'll see how it works. Yeah. And I've got the bucks winning the division. I've got the panthers finishing second. Guys, I don't know what why what what is the Panther hate coming from. It's it's not hate. I don't think Bryce Young's as good as Tyler Schuck. Well, I you may be right on that front, but they added Jalen Phillips and Devon Lloyd to their front seven and already were pretty stout in that regard. They got to play first place. Schedule. I got it. I got it. Okay. So they're second. And I think the bucks are going to win this division. Yeah. We're all locked step in that one playoff team, right? I think the Panthers have a shot here. You got I'm higher on the Panthers than you and you're

higher on the Saints than me. It's not Panthers. Hey, either. We just got to do it. It's not Saint Hayd either. This is not saying that it's like you hate this. Hey, that's so bad. We just have to make a prediction. And that's just so it's what we do. Yeah. Just respect is real. Okay. Thank you. Also just video of him working out over the weekend. That's how I rekill. Yeah. I know. I know. I could just say, do you know my reading inventory? Okay. I mean, he sits out there in your fantasy draft and he's just like, how do I not take a flyer at the end? He stashed him.

Want to do the giants? The win-loss for the giants? One loss on the giant. Okay. Let's do it. Jerry in Columbus, Ohio, Die Hard, New York, Giant fan. Let's let's work it here. What happens when win-loss? What happens when they play the Cowboys opening night? Oh, that's a loss. All right. One and one at the Rams on a Monday night. What happens week two? Oh, and two. And the sea is going to be a loss. No, my goodness. Oh, and three. Do they beat the Cardinals at home? All right. Yeah. All right. That's what I have. Motion game. One and three at the commanders. I think Ward is going to be a bust for that to win. All right. Now you're two and three home for the Saints. Lost. Oh, my goodness. Two and four at the Texans. Lost. Two and five at the Eagles. I'm thinking Jackson Dott and Matt Navy equal Justin Field.

That's my fear. Wow. What happens at the Eagles? There'll be no math. Lost. Two and six home. They take watching 10 to the second time. Okay. That's three and six. Jacksonville, forget it. Forget it. You could lead yourself through it. You're going to beat Daniel Jones at least. No hell, no. Hell no. Okay. Home for the Niners. Nine if they don't have a prayer. What about at the Seahawks? He has to play Mill Row and take them. What's the home for the Browns? I have faith in them to whoop the Browns. All right. There we go. That's a fourth win at the Lions on a Monday night. The dead about that one. At the Cowboys. TJ your boys are going to take two. Okay. And then home for the Eagles. Well, that's a wrap.

Four and 13s as Jerry and Columbus. Jerry, do you need a hug or what? Oh boy, do I. They're going to be better on paper, but not on the chalk. All right, Jerry. Call back. Let's see if this gets any better here from Jerry and Columbus. Seems like he was straight out of that vein there, although the opposite. That guy called in about the Giants when they were terrible. And he's like, we talk and play off. So what? And they never call back. No, back. He was never gave us. He gave us all times. All time. We talk and play off. So what? Fantastic. The comment. All right. Overreaction Monday, Chris Brockman and I popped one up yesterday on Labor Day. Season preview over a quarter of a million views already. We love you folks who want to watch this show on YouTube. You want to hear it as well. We are greatly appreciative of it. We've got a new presenting sponsor as well coming up for the fall. We're excited about

to introduce next Monday, but for the moment, if you missed yesterday's episode, check it out on our YouTube channel or wherever you listen to your podcast for the moment, though. It's overreaction Monday on a Tuesday. That was terrible. That was crap. That was garbage. This place is stuck. Overreaction Monday. On a Tuesday. Christopher, what do you have over there, sir? Happy Tuesday. Happy full season. Yes. Oh, yeah. We made it. Let's get it on. He's got help. Look at the week one schedule. Trying to anticipate which game is going to be the most overreacted to Rich Eisen. And I think it's going to be Buffalo and he would have begged. I would have pegged that one to pal. And I'm going to say this. Let's get it going right now. Let's preview. Let's front load next week. The loser of Bill's Texans won't win their division. That's crazy talk. That's silly. It's still week one already in an O and one hole. I got it. Let's just assume Buffalo goes to Houston, Houston plays defense like that. And they're all over Josh Allen. And anybody who draft the Josh Allen, their fantasy league starts off O and one. Really? That's the end of it. Patriots

upset Seattle. Okay. I'm sorry. Right. Fine. They're still the whole wrong way to go. I appreciate you front loading the overreaction. And the bills come in and they punk the Texans and you're like, okay, one seat, CJ Stratt will never reach the level of Josh Allen. And trade it out. And the bills are going to win the conference. Exactly. I understand that. But the fact is that it's not like the Texans won't win their division. Didn't they start poorly last year? I mean, it did cost them their division because Jacksonville showed up and started playing some real stout football overreaction. What else you got there, Chris? All right. Thursday, maybe Friday. I don't know. I got to hear Kyle Shane hand to see what we're thinking about time. Whatever team wins in Australia, that will be the new overseas travel strategy. What do you mean? I get all the 49ers win. People go early now where every team is going to say we got to go early.

We got to get acclimated. And if the Rams win, we've got to go the day before and keep your body on whatever time you're used to being on. Right. And then that's what we're going to do moving forward. That's been the case as somebody who's called a ton of international games. I feel like I'm the Jerry Lewis of announcers every time you hear like, this is going to be the new way of doing it. This is the new way of doing it. This is the new year coaches basically say, I don't know. I wanted to come early, but my support staff, my trainers, my sleep people tell me we should do it this way. And then they go out and they lose. And they feel like I should have done what I wanted to do. Or last year, again, I called Rams Jaguars and Wembley. Jaguars were there all week. Rams came in last second, crushed him. All right. So the team that's already been there for a week should have had a better showing in the end of the day. None of it matters in the long run. But we'll see.

That's an overreaction. What else you got, Chris? What else? It's all this quote from Derek Henry. Would you guys see this? Derek Henry is sick of watching the Super Bowl on Sunday. Okay. Meaning what? He wants it on a Monday. He wants to be in the game. Oh, I see what you're saying. He wants to style. I thought you were saying that he just didn't like the day it's on. No. Okay. He's sick of watching it from home. If the Ravens don't make the Super Bowl this year, both Derek Henry and Lamar Jackson elsewhere in 2027. I think that's ridiculous as well. So if they don't make the Super Bowl this year, both are gone. What if they make the AFC championship game at home and lose again? I don't know what's going to happen. I mean, the Ravens are a team that are I cannot wait to see play football because I love Jesse Minner. And I can't wait to see what Lamar looks like with a new set of eyes on everything there, right? That's some serious mystery coming in. Yeah. You know, Rhoquan is talking about how this defense is going to crush people. And I love it because he is a

warrior and mentor will definitely identify. Listen, Derwin James loves him some Jesse Minter. He would tell me that he tell all the broadcasting that of the Chargers games that I did. I mean, Kyle Hamilton and Jesse Minter's hands is going to be dominant. So I picked the Bengals to win the division just because I've been on high on the Bengals. I try to put my money where my mouth is, but I could be absolutely wrong. The Ravens could go and make the Super Bowl. But I think Bishadil do whatever he needs to to keep Lamar around. I really, certainly if it's another great season for him. No, you're all for three. I don't have an agreed with the thing you've said yet. We'll see. We'll see. Watching college football over the weekend. We can't get enough of this lame Kiffin locker room speech. Gosh, Pate seemed to suggest that it was put out there planned leak. By the way, if that's the case, the fact that somebody shot the floor to make it seem like I'm not going to just look at not going to get nobody's paid attention.

Either way, the team that was on the other end of that Clemson, whoo, they're in rough shape. This is going to be Davos last year at Clemson. I don't think that's an overreaction. I don't think that is at all. And if they're, I don't know, they look terrible. I don't know. One in five, one four. I don't know. You make it the year. How many times have we been saying this about Davos, Swinney ever since, you know, the Sean Watson left town, right? Or pardon me, Trevor Lawrence left town. Yeah. So we've been saying that for years. He doesn't seem hip to really adapt to what college football is. He says that about portal and NIO and whatever, but we'll see. We'll see. You know, he hasn't slowed down, running down that hill. And I'd go ask over T-Cettle if I did that. It's very impressive the way he runs down that hill. How am I doing that? But I don't think this is an overreaction right now. Okay. I mean, getting curb stomped in LSU. 51 to 10. Not even close. That is a bitter pill to swallow. Yeah. So it wasn't that I'm I'm I'm I'm with you on that one. A lot of great a couple more. A lot of

great quarterback performances. Of course, it's all about the quarterbacks here in this class heading into to the NFL draft next. By the way, just real quick before you've just I'm sorry. I don't know what the buyout would be. I mean, that could be a hefty price tag that'll just, you know, they'll treat it like the Bengals were like when I'm paying that money, he's still the coach. Perhaps. Alright, what else? Sorry. Sorry. A non-quarterbacks in the when the high spent trophy T-J. What Jeremiah Smith? I'm the water zero from Miami. Oh, Mctony. Saw him. That did special. We have 213. Something like that. Jeremiah Smith. I'll buy it. If the Raiders have the first pick. Oh, I hear you. Well, they don't trade it. They'll trade it. They'll trade it to every second. Oh, boy, like if you have Fernando with me these two kids. Oh, man, if you are in the NFL with a quarterback of the future already drafted and you're first overall

in next year's draft, show me the Mo Nanzah. No, me. Oh, yes. Like that would be an outstanding Raiders scenario. You also have to live, you know, four months of dreadful losing. You know, oh, man, that would be a banancer. I'll buy that one. You're not too far off. Alright, come on. That'd be amazing. And like the greatest quarterback draft that's coming up that a non-quarterback wins the high's trophy this year. Entirely possible too. Stranger Things Jeremiah Smith is, you know, I, all of these buckais that I know are like this guy. Now this guy, oh, yeah, Marv Jr. was the guy who they were coming to see in pro day, even though it was an eligible and we're still waiting. McCora and a while ago. He almost had a thousand yards receiving. So yeah, what else, Chris? I'm just going to keep going back to this well because when TJ, when you have a well that keeps giving you oil, you keep going. Did digging it? All right. Landman. What do you got? Well, Tony should never pitch again for the Dodgers.

By the way, nobody's more happy with the news that I'm not having probably done. I am not happy this guy, but I've been saying it since the beginning that he should be done with pitching. And now the pitching has now got him injured and now not point now is not even hitting well because of the injury that he sustained while pitching. I got it. It's just a bummer. But I like being right. Like come on. I'll still I'll still I'll still I'll still rule against this even though he should not want to pitch anymore. But he's so damn good at it. I was about to say if he was like a borderline pitcher then yeah, but he's not a lot of money. He is except we're definitely sure you heard him self pitching. We're definitely not yet to hear anything otherwise. We're 100% sure we got Pablo on this one. Well, since he's all over the Dodgers everything else right now. I think you know figure it out. I don't know. It's a bummer. I know you're connecting. No one pitching.

I don't know pal. Well, it wouldn't be amazing that this franchise that paid him all that money to do both only gets one and it's the hitting because they have the pitching covered anyway. By the way, exactly. Two rings already. Yeah, it's trophies in the case. You're right. I know they're not right there yet, but I'm not betting against them enough. I have a hot or a tiny take that I'm not willing to unpack. All right. Just keep out. He's keep that on in your arsenal. Just hold me more PCA, right? All right. Well, okay. Yeah. What do you got? Guys, Aaron Judge plays baseball tonight. Oh, looks like it. He's back. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What about it? Not back. That's it. That's it. What's more of a state? He plays baseball tonight. He does. He does. Yeah. Oh my gosh. All right. Roman Anthony honk. Get out of here. Like the injuries happen, pal. I forgot. Well, he's even back now. He's back now. The Yankees while he's been out. Number one in the NFL and the NFL and number one in Major League Baseball and the R.A. Let's go. Even if he adds a run a game. Another just a, like, I can't wait to see what it looks like.

I'm ahead before you. Okay. Just I just want to know where Doug Eddings is so that the hats can be straight. We didn't even hit that. That's the most absurd story of the Major League season. We didn't even hit that today. Oh my. You know what? Maybe we'll let's just take a break now. So I'll have time for that. That's coming up next on the Rich Eyes and Show. We'll wrap up the show on a busy football Tuesday. The Rich Eyes and Show. The podcast. Here on the Rich Eyes and Show, 844204. Rich just took some calls here.

I have been upset at baseball as much as Doug Eddings telling that rookie on the St. Louis Cardinals straightness hat. I mean absolutely dreadful. What a horrible moment that was for baseball for umpiring I saw that and then after the game he told me he said, Hunter Goodman stepped up to the plate for the Rockies and said, you know, can you wear his hat like that? And that's what he told him to straight. He told the catcher to tell the kid to straighten his hat. Now he also said after the game that nobody said anything until the kid gave up some runs. And that no one was he wasn't going to wear his hat on his field. What a it's just like Doug I just went to the park with my son, my 15 year old son Yankee's angels.

We did not spend a split second on the weighted stadium saying, oh I can't wait to see who's the home play dumper with all due respect. Your job is to make sure we're not talking about you. Period into story. And you know kudos to the manager of the of the Cardinals to get ejected. He shouldn't get ejected and then kudos to the Cardinals and the Rockies in next day for wearing their hats is skew. Honestly, what are we doing? What are we doing? Telling kids certainly of color to straighten their hats out. Like what century are we in? What decade are we in? What world are we in? Get out of here. So sunny gray for the socks. Where's this had crooked on and on former Cardinal? Uh no issue ever. So what the hell was that all about? Yeah. Not your job sir. Not your job. And then he gave and then he gave the Cardinals a pitch clock

violation because the manager argued in between pitch pitching changes. Like power trip somewhere else. Not on your your field. Get out of here. All right. I got that off my chest man. I'm a virtue signaling either. I just saw I'm like what the hell are we doing? It's stupid. It's field. All right. Yeah. Rams and uh, Niners are playing in in Australia as we all know. Melvin has told us it's called Tom landed. I saw his I'm so glad he landed. Thank God. He made it. I'm kind of pee. Um, so the Rams are taking a totally different approach than not. Niners already there. Yeah. Um, and um, when they flew out, Adam Schefter, oh pardon me, Joe Pum, Pumpleano was talking about the Rams schedule. Okay. Because the Niners already there. Uh, Joe Pumpleano said the Rams travel schedule is practice this morning, meaning Tuesday,

leave for Melbourne Tuesday night. Wednesdays lost because you land Thursday morning. That's how long it takes and it's now the next day, the date line. You play at 10 35 in the morning on on Friday. That's what the kickoff is. Then you fly back to the US immediately after and they're in LA midday Friday, meaning the Rams will spend more than 30 hours on an airplane and travel over 15,000 miles. You had technically be back in Los Angeles less than 72 hours after leaving. So you lose it. You lose a day when traveling, right? From the United States to Australia. Adam Schefter pointed out that uh, Rahim Morris traveled and missed his birthday. Okay. 50 years old on Thursday, September 3rd. So last week they flew to Australia leaving Wednesday night, the second and arrived on the fourth. He's really not 50. That's how it means. So that's the thing. He's never, he's always 49. I'm like, oh, by that way, I'm my birthday from now. Like a leapier baby. Never going to be. He's not always 49. He just gets an extra year and he gets

it, he gets paid by the 49ers. Maybe that's his way of, you know, really buying into the team effort. Look, 49 forever. Yeah. The soundbite of the year already, Kyle Shanahan, ladies and gentlemen, they're explaining about all of this business. We did our totally normal routine. I'm not sure because we're like I said, we're a little confused with when I look at my clock and it says the time and then I try to see my family's time and then it says the time, but it says yesterday, I don't even get how that's possible. So I feel like I'm in the future. And then also when we play on our Friday, which I think is a Thursday in the US for such creatures of habits. So I call today Tuesday. No wait, sorry, I call today Wednesday, which is the first day we put in a game plan. But I think it's Monday, however though it's Sunday and the present. So like, I'm going to mess that up all week. If you guys asked me, but today is just our first day of the game plan, which is a Wednesday, and we'll put in some on a Thursday. Friday is the final part of the game plan. Saturday, we walked in when we play on Sunday, which is a Friday in Australia and a Thursday and on the US. So don't ever make me do that again.

Am I reading the chart? I have a migraine. Yeah, I'm just like, what? Space time continuum. Well, if anybody is still wondering if he's, he's still feeling the effects of what happened in his car crash to be able to stick the landing on that. He's clear odd full hearts. Okay, if he can't lose. Mm-hmm. And he also got rid of the stash. Stash gone. Stash is gone. Okay, left that in Van Nies. On a on a Wednesday. Oh, I got it. So it was overreaction Monday, a Tuesday on a Wednesday today in Australia. Oh, did I get this right? Right. Okay. Correct. Overreaction Tuesday on a Wednesday in Australia. We say hello to our friends down under. Which your mandated to refer to that as his American sports cast or anything. And London's across the pond anything in Australia's down under. What else? I used to that drop, Mike. We're ready. We're all seizes up

and running. Kurt Warner does his usual Wednesdays on Wednesday. We got a game tomorrow. What's up, Trevor? That's right. We got a game tomorrow. Football. Yeah. Yeah. That's on Wednesday. So we're all champions. Thanks for listening to the Rich Eyes and Show podcast.
