Lions getting ready for week 1.

0:00I think I got the schedule down now. Hutch will be joining us on Mondays at 11.30. Throughout the football season, although it gets a little wonky with Monday and Thursday games, Jared Goff will be Tuesday's at 10.30. Okay. What time you're roaming on? A Roman came out of from a different perspective. I just think it's... I have no interest in a world that Roman wants comes to an overstate. I have no interest in a college football world. Roman gets what Roman wants, which his players have unlimited eligibility. I told you earlier, my college roommate was listening from New Jersey. He said, Roman equals the dumbest call of the decade, if not ever.

1:01Then he was talking about that other guy, Shaky. Anyone who refers themselves in a third person is a complete tool. A good-coded sign-filled moment where... I want George likes chicken spicy. I want to make something clear. I do end every show with treat each other with respect. That doesn't mean I'm always doing that. I try very hard and I try to be fair to everybody and let them give their opinions. But why are we even thinking about suing to have guys have unlimited college eligibility? I don't know. The theme of this preposterous is trying to sue the... So you can kick LSU out of the league. There's going to be a vote on Thursday for people just joining us. The SEC chancellors, I guess, are going to get together. If they get two-thirds vote, LSU is getting ejected from the Southeastern Conference, which is unbelievable. And you say there's no way in hell it's going to happen.

2:03I thought there was no way in hell the bears were going to go to Hammond. And I think the bears are going to end up in Hammond. So we're getting back to something we talked about earlier today. Better chance of happening. LSU can kick that OEC or Jalen Duren developing a jump shot. You were specific. You said an eight foot jump shot. I'm going to go with Duren. But lo and behold, let's have them both happen. Yeah, that would be nice. Okay, so Hutch interview, like the preseason is such a tease. I thought that being that close to football without actually playing football, I thought of my drive in nuts and it obviously doesn't. But I think is for us who as the baseball team fades to black in August, which is what they did. And the attention turns squarely to the coming football season. Anything we get is fantastic. And like all of the Lions key weapons were shelved during the preseason.

3:06And hence, I can't wait to see the guys play again. The guys that we're talking about, Almanra and Jamo and Jameer Gibbs are an elite trio of weapons. Laporta's back, Penny Soulden play. You got Jared Goff who's the Maestro, the whole thing. You got Hutch himself. You know, there's a lot riding on some player success and failure. And we're kind of taking it as a given that the great players are going to be great. And that's not always a given. But Blake Miller, it's got to be really good. Chuck Clark or Christian Isian or some of those Roger McCreary. Yeah, some of those guys in the secondary got to step up and make plays. No doubt about it. And then you get into the fascinating questions of, okay, was Skylar Gill Howard just a preseason flash in the pan or is this guy going to make plays in the regular season? Is Ahmed Hassanine actually going to be a factor on, on passing down?

4:06That's where it gets really good. Yeah, you think both those guys will be active? I don't even know. They might not be. I know. They might not be. I mean, you heard earlier in the show, uh, Dan Campbell rave about Eric O'Neill. Mm-hmm. Is Eric O'Neill going to be in uniform? Who knows? So all of this starts to get answered this week. Meanwhile, there's a game tomorrow night. Tomorrow night, tomorrow night, tomorrow night, it's not the Melbourne game. Melbourne game is the Seattle. Tomorrow's Patriots Seahawks rematch is Super Bowl. Thursday is the Melbourne game. I have been in that stadium. Wow. I have been to the Melbourne Australian rules football. I have been to the Melbourne cricket ground. And I saw both Aussie rules football and I saw the first ever night match played in cricket. At the Melbourne cricket ground. Wow. That's for sure. Now, what's funny is since I've been there, it looks like they've done some substantial upgrades. But I've been there.

5:07I have an Australian rules football jersey that I. Oh, wow. Doesn't fit any. Do you know what team? Don't tell me, but do you know what team? No. I forget. I have it. You need to bring it into work. I want to see if I can name the team based on the jersey. I'll send you a picture. Like is it the black and white Collingwood pinstripes? No, it's got like red black. Is it ascended? Is it an ascended bomber jersey? I don't know. I'll find out when I go home and I'll text you the picture. Is it fits for all the lines? I don't know. They are defund. Actually, they move and became the West Coast. By the way, I apologize. Because everyone knows. I realized I failed in the Aiden Hutchinson interview. I should have asked him a question. In what way? When I brought up the golfing thing he does. Yeah. He did one with Dylan Larkin. Maybe he should have asked him about it. Yeah. So I got a. I got a story for you here. Mark Ryan in studio. Yes. I have no idea how to golf. None whatsoever. So I'm taking lessons. The guy giving me the lessons gave Hutch lessons. Really?

6:07How crazy is that? But you said something today that almost had me driving off the road with laughter. What is it? And I just got to tell you, it is all about, I think a listener said it. Not if you honk, but how you honk. And I got to tell you, when I moved here, it listened. Learning the Detroit drivers is an indoctrination man. That's an indoctrination. And let me tell you, the thing that bothered me. So these are otherwise nice people until you get them in their cars. I didn't understand the Michigan left. There was no, there was no boop. There was, I lean in on the horn. Why in the heck do they not have a function where you can only honk for two seconds? Just a quick, that you can do that till the end of time is ridiculous. Rico, did you hear the scenario that played out for me this morning? No. I was driving to work. I was a second in line in a red light. The light turned green, the car in front of me didn't move. I gave it three seconds, gave it five seconds. I was going to give it all day because it was a, it was a cop.

7:09And I'm like, do you beep at a cop? Yeah. You not breaking the law? I absolutely would not have beeped at a cop. I would have, you're not breaking the law. Hey, hey buddy, move. You're not slamming the horn. You're just getting a regular. I got stuff to do. I let, I let it ride. I was, I sat there for seven seconds before. You're in the middle of five, too. You're white, you're fine. Five did it as a whole different, I'm on a T-shirt. Rico, how do you follow that up? I don't. Yeah, I just let it fly. I just let it, we had some police officers call say get the quick polite honk. If you're sitting there on your phone because you know, you're a cop and I guess you can be on your phone in the car. Move. Well, the cops said they frequently have radio traffic or the computer. They're getting messages. I know, which is funny because this whole distracted driving and they literally have a computer in there. They do. They do. But yeah, you would be fine. Well, I just, I played it safe and got to work on time.

8:11What do you guys got playing? Come at them next. Well, I just got here. So we'll talk a little bit about Michigan and whether this is not necessarily the one second left, but is this a blip on the radar? Are they Penn stayed from last year or they noted aim from two years ago? I'm hoping notary to two years ago. Have a great show. Okay. Stay safe everyone. Treat each other with respect. 90-something.
