So we're two hours into the middle show of the work week so this is the moment where we turn our face to the wind and start to look downhill toward the weekend. It's still a long ways off. A lot to do but there's sleep in my future which I hope you don't mind me saying I am desperately excited about. It doesn't matter.

The man in my dreams could show up and ask me to marry him right now and I would be more excited about the fact that I get to sleep in a few hours. It's true. It's really sad.

That's the state of affairs at this current moment. I would say yes but then I would say yes and goodnight. Tomorrow. Can you wait until tomorrow to ask me or could you ask me on Wednesday evening when I wake up because right now I don't think I'll even remember this moment. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence on CBS Sports Radio.

Thanks so much for hanging out with us on the Hump Show. We're live from the Rocket Mortgage Studios. Do you need to know what happens? No, wait. Do you need to know what it takes for a home to fit your budget and your family? Rocket Cam.

Just to clarify, I mean the man in my dreams will eventually show up and ask me to marry him and I want to be fresh as a daisy for that moment. We are asking you, we are asking you about coaches on this edition of the show because there are some new coaches already that we're forming opinions about. Think Brian Deball, right? People are psyched at the fact that he went for the win and the two point conversion instead of settling for a tie and a point after attempt in week number one when the Giants faced the Titans. Not only people as in fans but his players. They jumped on him. They raved about him and being aggressive and trusting them. The complete opposite of Nathaniel Hackett with the Broncos in week number one.

Facing a fourth and five with Russell Wilson, he chooses a 64 yard field goal and it's been backpedaling ever since. The tale of two brand new head coaches whose paths have already careened away from each other in a dramatic way. So what coaches right now, whether it's someone who's brand new, maybe has a few years under his belt, or one of the old timers, if you will, one of the established coaches. Longevity matters.

It really does. Even if you think the coach should have been fired. Maybe it's Sean McDermott. He's got quite a track record already. This light bulb just went on over Jay's head. Yes, like Sean McDermott.

It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence. You can respond to that coaching question. Who are the most trustworthy coaches in the NFL right now? On Twitter, ALawRadio and Jay did put up a post on our Facebook page which always gets a ton of traffic. That is what we're asking you on social.

You can still vote for TD of the Week also on either Twitter or Facebook and we'll reveal before the show is done. And in addition, you've got 30 minutes left to send your questions for Ask Amy anything. I just want you to know, Jay is too kind to ever laugh in your face. But there are some of your questions that have caused him to giggle. If you haven't ever heard producer Jay giggle, it is actually pretty funny.

I'm not going to do it, but there are some wild ones. You're not going to do it? Meaning you're not going to read them or you're not going to giggle? I can't force the giggle. You can't force the giggle? Jay also complains a lot. Not that you would ever know, but between the giggling and the complaining, somewhere in there there's an even keel Jay that has to deal with me.

See? Now if you could giggle like, that was more of a chortle. Nah, that was a belly laugh.

Actually, I take it back. Would you call that a cackle? I think that's a little bit of a giggle. A little bit of a giggle? Alright. I like Mike Tomlin for so many reasons, including the fact that he laughs.

Once a year. Okay, so send your questions for Ask Amy. Vote for TD of the Week. Answer our show question.

Who are the most trustworthy coaches in the NFL right now? Again, show Twitter. After Hours, CBS is the best way. You can find me, ALawRadio, plus Facebook.

Our phone number 855-212-4227. Alright, back to throw. And it is. Is it lost? Oh my goodness, it's lost. DeAndre Hopkins caught it. Backward from under center.

Steps back. Throws the fake. Cooper cuts, got him. Touchdown L.A. Burrow back to throw.

Looking. Firing deep for Chase. In the end zone.

He's got it. Touchdown. Joe Burrow and the Bengals. The Holmes fires for the end zone.

Taught. Touchdown Kansas City. And no, Herbert keeps it in zone. Touchdown, Chargers. Herbert with his second of the day.

Here's the snap. Josh going to keep it himself and run it again inside the five into the end zone. Touchdown Buffalo. Josh Allen, nine yard touchdown run.

The Bills respond and then some. It's time for QB News on After Hours. I like how the voice got says that QB News.

It's very powerful when he introduces it and we're going to dive right in because Jerry Jones wants you to know Dak Prescott is sooner. It's sooner rather than later that he's going to return to the football field even though the Cowboys just picked up their first win with Cooper Rush as the QB and the defense making life miserable for Joe Burrow. Dak could be back by week four according to Jerry Jones. Everybody recognizes that he'll be back sooner rather than later as far as the timeline and it really could be a minimal of two weeks up here in my mind. Now that's very optimistic that is optimistic, but it could be he's got the kind of repair there that will allow him not to have a lot of fear about reentering.

It's just a question of the grip, but it's a big question. It is remember when Russell Wilson had a fractured. I think it was a fractured middle finger and he tried to come back early. It was so astounding how quickly he returned and yet he couldn't grip the football.

So when he couldn't grip the football, he couldn't throw the football and it was a big mess. That was last season before he got traded to the Denver Broncos. So Jerry Jones with Sean and RJ on our Dallas affiliate 1053 the fan until Dak returns. He is all about the quarterback room.

Now Dak is part of it. He's he was on the sidelines there. He was the first to greet Cooper Rush when Cooper came off the field at the end of the game, but Jerry has a lot of confidence in both Cooper and Will Greer. Those guys have been around him and repetitions in practice as well as of course the time that he did play last year with a win over Minnesota. So I like what we're seeing there Greer behind him had a good week real good week.

You ever look good in training camp. Frankly, I feel good where we are right now with given back is out which we all know what a concern that is, but I feel pretty good about a quarterback. Once again, Jerry Jones weekly Tuesday appearance on our Dallas affiliate 1053 the fan with Sean and RJ, you know, it struck me as I was hearing him talk about that the narrative after Dak got hurt. We even have a guest who suggested that they should trade the Cowboys should trade for Jimmy Garoppolo. And now Garoppolo is starting again for the San Francisco 49ers because Trey Lance had the successful surgery actually saw one doctor slash team suggestion that he could be completely healed by the end of this season. I can't imagine that they would bring him back.

I could be totally wrong. We never know how these things break, but Jimmy also needs to stay healthy because that's been a challenge for him during his career, including this offseason when he had shoulder surgery. It's after hours with Amy Lawrence our QB news.

Moving on to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers who are 2-0, but the offense only has two touchdowns in their two wins. And once again, we saw Tom Brady throwing a fit on the sidelines on Sunday in New Orleans. He was smashing yet another tablet. I mean, this has become a regular thing with Tom Brady.

Here he is on his weekly appearances podcast. Let's go. I've had a pretty bad record against that tablet. Unfortunately, I think I, you know, I forgot the password and I couldn't log in. So those things can be frustrating as we realize our time. So unfortunately, a tablet just happens to get in the way. And obviously that's the reason why things were going great yesterday. So I had to take it out on the poor meaningless tablet, the poor meaningless tablet. So he starts out making jokes about how he couldn't log in, which I'll just tell you, sometimes I get frustrated because I can't remember a password or I can't enter it correctly. And I also feel like chucking my tablet, but I don't do it because unlike Tom Brady on the sidelines, if I chuck a tablet and it breaks, guess who has to buy a new one?

Well, that would be me. I'll bet you Tom Brady doesn't foot the bill for new tablets. Moving forward from the Let's Go podcast, he weighed in on Mike Evans, the top receiver, receiving a one game suspension for going after Michon Lattimore when Lattimore pushed Brady again in that brawl toward the end of the game between Saints and Bucks. It was an emotional game against a team that we have a tough time with. And I think everyone prior to the game felt very intense. The game was intense.

It was a hard hitting game. And, you know, Mike and Marshawn, you know, they've had their own battles over the years. And look, I think just sometimes the emotions get the best of us. And I love Mike. And the fact that Mike would come out there to defend me, I mean, it means everything in the world to me as a teammate and a friend.

And Mike knows how I feel about him. So in the end, emotions are a part of sports. Sometimes they boil over and they obviously did yesterday. And it's an unfortunate circumstance. I don't think it deserved any type of suspension.

I think that's ridiculous. You know, hopefully we can move past it, get to a better place. And, you know, in the end, I appreciate Mike having my back. I know he'll learn from it. And he knows that we all have his back.

Now, see, I like that. Brady acknowledges that Mike Evans was protecting him and that Mike had his back. And I don't know if he's going to pay Mike's salary over the course of that one game suspension. Although I did see from Josina Anderson, our CBS Sports HQ NFL insider, that the decision from the NFL could come down Wednesday about whether or not Evans is having that suspension revoked. But in the eyes of the league, he's a repeat offender.

So I can't imagine that will happen. One, let's see. Oh, we'll save more Tom Brady for later. So that's on the Let's Go podcast, which takes place on Mondays on Sirius XM. On to Aaron Rodgers, who, much to producer Jay's relief, is appearing this season again on The Pat McAfee Show.

And he's old now, you know. But how is he feeling two weeks into the season? The older you get, the more difficult it is, I think, on Mondays and Tuesdays. But maybe the easier it is to get through a Wednesday or a Thursday or Friday, if you will, banged up. Maybe just a little bit more used to what that level of 100 percent or your 100 percent during the season looks and feels like. So neck is definitely a little bit sore. But overall, some soreness. But I feel pretty good two weeks in. The thing I do feel good about is I ran to the sidelines that one time for like seven yards. The gainer went down and wasn't that tired. A lot of times, you know, I sprint because not just seven yards.

You got to get the Pythagorean theorem. And you got to get certain distances you want to run just to get out of bounds. Right.

Of course. Sometimes I come back to the huddle and I'm like, you know, maybe bring a little heavy every now and then. I actually made the point to a woman who is sitting next to me in the Packers press box on Sunday night that it's very obvious Rogers is conserving energy because after a play, maybe he hands off to a running back, Jones or A.J.

Dylan. The guys take off. The whole unit kind of moves downfield the defense to and he just walks to the next snap. He just walks.

He is not in any hurry. But yeah, that seven yard run was instrumental early in the second quarter and then picking up a first down and then continuing on what was a touchdown drive. A twenty one point second quarter, which was huge in them beating the Bears at Lambeau on Sunday night.

This is kind of a neat question. I really appreciate this one because it was a major issue for them. After week number one, when Aaron Jones only touched the ball five times. So what is the game plan with Aaron and with A.J. Dylan moving forward for their offensive formula? The goal is to get thirty three and twenty eight the ball. You know, it'd be nice to get them a number of touches in the 15 range, at least for each of them. But it just depends on how the game goes. Some games flow differently than others. And week one, the way it went and the score and the inability to, you know, to be efficient and to keep drives going.

We don't have opportunities to get those guys runs. But I felt like, you know, we were five for nine, I believe, on third down. So that gives you more opportunities.

The fact that we only had nine third downs in the entire game with, I think, sixty nine plays. Nice for the game. But but that gives you more opportunities to run the football.

Yeah. So the deal is and Matt Lafleur has been has theoretically been this way since he took over. They want to establish the run first. And you have the perfect guy to do that with Aaron Jones.

He says so much success already. I don't have any idea why you would get away from Aaron Jones first and Aaron Jones often. And what a big game he had on Sunday night.

That's on the Pat McAfee show. Aaron Rodgers, one more. This one's kind of cute. Who does he enjoy watching in the quarterback position in today's NFL? I really like Josh Allen. I've gotten to know him a little bit over the years. And I really like him as a person. So if somebody that I really, really like is on TV, I'll probably check him out. And so I check. Who else do you really like that you watch? I'm just I'm not going to give away too much of that information.

And if it's if it's, you know, applicable to the conversation age, then I'll add to it. I know you're trying to set me up again here with some ridiculous interjection, but I do like Josh Allen a lot. And if he's on, I usually like watch them. I like Matt Stafford a lot. If he's on, I'll watch him and I'll just stop right there. A nod to the days when it was Stafford and Rodgers together in the NFC North.

So I thought that was interesting, too. Again, Pat McAfee show weekly appearances, we assume. Aaron Rodgers, when I told Jay his his eyes just lit up. He's very excited. His favorite interview of the entire week.

All right. Let's pivot a little bit to the AFC where Mitch Trubisky and the Steelers offense rightfully so taking a lot of criticism. It's been anemic through the air. Do you know in two games, Trubisky has a total 362 passing yards. That's 29th in the NFL, only two touchdowns and a pick. And right now they're averaging just 5.1 yards per pass play. So how do they spark the offense through the air?

It's there. And we had our opportunities. I think earlier I can take shots downfield.

I think I could look for a 14 more often. George, he's doing a great job for us. And I just got to get these playmakers of football, whether it's whatever route they're running. I just got to get them the ball. So it really comes down to me making better decisions, being aggressive and and given putting us ourselves in that position.

I think when you lose and you don't have enough points and you don't produce enough splash, I think that all of that is subject to debate. But, you know, that's not a debate that we're going to take part in. We're just going to roll our sleeves up and get back to work and with a better desired outcome for this next outing. We're going to roll up our sleeves.

We're going to get back to work. And I don't want to hear any excuses. Is Mike Tomlin one of the top coaches in the NFL?

Is he among those top three most trustworthy? We're asking you that on Twitter, ALawRadio and on our Facebook page. But he doesn't want to talk about numbers and stats and nah, but just how about we get some wins and then everything looks a whole lot different.

It's put up and shut up time. The Steelers will be on the road at Cleveland for Thursday Night Football. And of course, Cleveland just got flat code. Seriously, two touchdown passes in the final minute and fifty five seconds to win in Cleveland. Incredible, improbable.

And because of that, Joe is all the rage on Sirius XM NFL Radio. I've been through obviously some games that have meant a lot and had crazy finishes. But if you just if you just compare game to game and they all mean the same, that's probably the craziest one. Because, you know, we just felt like the game was over. I mean, it was obviously it was a wild one. A lot of emotions after the game.

The locker room was unbelievable. I mean that, you know, what can what can really be said to describe that feeling? I mean, unless you've experienced, you know, a win in the NFL, then you probably have, you know, a little bit of a glimpse as to what it could feel like. You know, and if you've been a part of some crazy games, you can get, you know, get another little bit. But that was one of the crazier ones I've been a part of, for sure. He actually said we thought the game was over.

Right. Like everybody else did, including producer Jay and I, who picked the Browns in our office survivor pool. Sorry, Jay. I'm so sorry, Jay. I feel I convinced him that that was as close to a lock as possible. I should have known. I should have known better. I was with you. So I don't blame you. You got me one hundred percent on board. So I wasn't like I wasn't tentative going in. I was one hundred percent in with you. But tell me or tell people who your choice would have been. We were going back and forth between.

Yeah, mine is even more embarrassing. I would have went with the Bengals. So I don't feel so bad because we would have been eliminated either way. I'm still alive on Survivor Island, though.

Hey, one more. I don't know how many people picked the Ravens at home on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. But as you can imagine, it was stunning to be in the stadium and certainly stunning to watch it unfold on Sunday to a tango below a career high four hundred sixty nine passing yards and six touchdowns. But in the fourth quarter alone, nearly 200 yards and four scores. And that is why Mike just think he loves to see him on the field. He's dealt with so much criticism and outside noise from people that aren't in the building, people that aren't aware of the situation, people that don't know the play call, people that don't know the situation. But they're still going to say and, you know, do anything they want because it draws attention to a negative situation.

And unfortunately, that's the world we live in. People want to be negative rather than understand that, you know, he's a he's a young quarterback and he's only getting better and he's made plays for this organization for the third year now. And now this year, people want to hop on the hop on the bandwagon, hop on the train. And if I was him, I wouldn't let him. Oh, knock him off the train. Get off the train, man.

There's no room for you on this train. The bandwagon is full. That's Dolphins tight end Mike just sticky. And he caught he's caught one touchdown so far this year. But there have been a lot of different targets and a lot of different receivers, which was the idea when the Dolphins were navigating the offseason with free agency and the draft. Do you know who the Dolphins play this weekend? It's a clash of two and oh teams in the AFC East. The Dolphins hosting the Buffalo Bills coming up on Sunday. And that is the latest edition of QB News. You're now 20 minutes away from Ask Amy anything. So send your questions to our show Twitter after our CBS. I already see your responses coming in for most trustworthy NFL head coaches. I've actually settled on my three. I can't wait to although producer Jay threw another one in the mix that I nearly fell out of my chair.

How can I forget him? That was my response. So we're quibbling. It's a little bit like baseball trading cards right now with our trustworthy NFL head coaches. So we'll share some of those as we go through.

But getting your post on both Twitter and on Facebook. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence, our hump show here on CBS Sports Radio. You are listening to the After Hours podcast.

This is After Hours with Amy Lawrence. Who are the most trustworthy coaches in the NFL? I'm not asking you to bet your life on it. In fact, I don't even think you should bet your savings on a sporting event. But which coaches give you confidence?

Which coaches do you recognize have earned not just respect but have earned their longevity or have earned the benefit of the doubt? On Twitter, ALawRadio and on the Facebook page After Hours with Amy Lawrence. I'll start with Facebook since generally I start on Twitter. I don't know why. Who knows? Well, I know why because I hate Facebook. I just hate all things meta. It's the devil.

But we're required to have the page and many of you like it so go team. Mark on Facebook says Pete Carroll. See, that's another one.

This is becoming harder and harder the more that I think about it. He says Sean McVay who of course is the defending, well the defending coach, Super Bowl champion coach if that makes sense. And Tomlin as in Tomlin comma Mike. So Pete Carroll, Sean McVay, Mike Tomlin. Vic goes with Tomlin, McVay, Andy Reid. Oh, Andy Reid. He had to be the most gigantic sentimental favorite in a long time when it came to, and I didn't mean gigantic as, sorry, that was totally not what I meant. I meant he was a gigantic favorite. We had a few cheeseburgers together. I do love cheeseburgers. I would eat a cheeseburger with Andy Reid.

I think that would be super fun. The stories he could tell and he's actually got a great sense of humor. He has a wicked sense of humor. So Vic goes with Andy Reid, Mike Tomlin, Sean McVay. I'm surprised that McVay has gotten two votes and two posts. Greg says Nick Sirianni. Huh. Okay.

You might be alone on your island there. Anthony on Facebook, Andy Reid, Bill Belichick, Mike Tomlin. Those are the elder statesmen right now. Along with Pete Carroll, of course, who is, isn't Pete about to be 70? I think he is.

He might be if he's, if not already. And he's a masterful coach. Make, I mean, there's no doubt about that.

Make no bones about it. Ant says Andy Reid. Keith goes with Reid, McVay, Tomlin. Kevin Tomlin, Reid, Belichick. So there's another vote for Belichick.

Here's a good one from Joshua. John Harbaugh. Been with the team for 15 years. The Ravens have won multiple Super Bowls.

He's been successful. And they even care about winning preseason games. He also goes with Sean McVay and Pete Carroll. And then Ben. Sean McDermott, Sean McVay, Andy Reid. Honorable mention is Mike Tomlin. Alright, interesting.

So that's a good smattering. I would say the youngest is McVay. Well, along with Sirianni.

Sirianni's pretty young too. But the, but the theme is that these guys have been tenured for a while. McDermott's what, five years in? Five or six years in? And at the time he was brand new. But notice nobody said anything about the new guys, really. Sean McVay's probably six, six or seven years in now as well. I'd have to go back and look. But you know, it's a revolving door for the majority of the NFL.

And so longevity is nothing to take for granted. Who are your most trustworthy NFL head coaches? Jay just said another one in my ear, but I'll let you say it because I hadn't thought of it yet. But he's amazing. Yeah, I mean, I don't know where he fits on this list nowadays since his team isn't as great.

But there was a time where he'd be considered at least top five. How about Ron Rivera? Ron Rivera, who's the only Hispanic head coach in the NFL. But also a great leader, a cancer survivor.

Men follow him and he treats them like men. But yes, in Washington it's been an uphill battle. And he, because the team, continues to slide backward.

It doesn't feel like they're making progress. And the big deal, of course, is they haven't found an established quarterback. So in your opinion, who are the most trustworthy coaches in the NFL right now? Who would you take? Let's pretend that they're like trading cards. I'll trade you my head coach for your head coach. Oh man, I would really like to do that. Today would be amazing.

Part of the, part of the, hmm, how do I want to say this? Part of the climate of the NFL is it's a copycat league. Which means when Sean McVay does well right out of the gate as an offensive genius. Where you're going to have more Sean McVay types hired. And how many of those have we seen now come out of his coaching staff?

The Lafleurs, right? Mike McDaniel, oh no, sorry, not Mike McDaniel. Mike McDaniel was San Francisco with Kyle Shanahan.

But that's another one. Anybody going to say Kyle Shanahan? You're looking at a bunch of coaches who have been spawned by Sean McVay. And Andy Reid as well. Belichick's spawn don't seem to do as well as head coaches. But Josh McDaniels, the jury is still out. Of course he, this is his second try.

Actually his third, but he jilted Indianapolis before they ever had a single game with him. They dodged a bullet. Okay, on Twitter, on Facebook, can't wait to hear from you. Also, last couple minutes to send your questions for Ask Amy. Anything, I'm back here in studio for the hump show. Catch real-time reactions from Juan Soto in the field.

Hit me with your best shot. Fire away. It's that time of the week again. Man, it comes around quickly, especially when you're on the road, you're traveling, yada, yada, yada. It was my choice.

I'm glad I did it. We decided to get back to Wisconsin and we did a couple of, we'll call them serviceable shows from our Green Bay affiliate. We survived and then a massive mess of a travel day to, well not massive I guess, it was a major mess.

We won't graduate to massive. It wasn't apocalyptic or anything but it wasn't quite the way that I planned. And that happens a lot.

People are in that same situation these days with travel. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence on CBS Sports Radio. Producer Jay has got your questions for Ask Amy Anything.

And I trust his judgment, even as we're asking you, which NFL coaches you trust. Ooh, how about that? Segway! Let's hop right in. So a couple of people are curious about your trip to Green Bay that you just came back from, as you mentioned. And Steven wants to know, when you were at the Packers game on Sunday night, did you participate in the Go Pack Go chants? No, I was in the press box. No, they specifically instruct you before the game that it's a working press box.

If you cheer or if you disrupt the working environment, they'll actually pull your credentials in some cases. No, I had my laptop out. I was taking notes the entire time. I was not there as a fan. And I know I've gone to a few baseball games as a fan this summer. But I was working.

And so I did not participate in any chants. I was there to cover the game, to kind of get in an atmosphere where I haven't been before. And then to find Leroy Butler, which I did.

So those were really the big goals. But also to finish my notes for our NFL show that Sunday night. So you weren't wearing a cheese head at any point in the night? I was not wearing a cheese head. I did eat a brat, because they had those in the press box. But I did not drink a beer. I was not there. I was walking around puking people on the sidewalk when we were leaving.

I went straight from the radio station to the game to the radio station. That's how much fun I had. I mean, it was fun.

But not the kind of fun that you're thinking. Maybe a vodka lemonade next time. Sprinkle one or two in there.

In the press box, no. Well, Steven also wants to know, he follows up with, what did you snack on when you were there? Well, so they had a dessert table. And people were doing a steady stream to and from the dessert table. It was actually really funny. So I had a cookie.

That was it. But in the press box, there was a nice salad spread. I know, Jay's favorite.

You're all favorite. All of your favorites. Big old salad with lots of fresh veggies. Pieces of sirloin strip. There was also pork tenderloin. And then I had a brat because I love brats. And I had one cookie. Peanut butter cookie. It was delicious.

The Packers do the spread very well. I would steer far away from that salad table, yes. The cookie sounds good. It was the same buffet goof. Well, Mike wants to know now, since you just flew, what is the largest airplane you've ever flown on? See, I'm so bad at this.

I don't know. I don't know what the name of the airplane is. But the largest one I've ever been on is the one that I flew from Atlanta to South Africa. So that was a really big plane. We had to stop and refuel in Dakar, I think.

We had to stop and refuel. And so that was a huge plane. It was three sections of, I think it was ten seats across. So there were three on the left and the right. And then there were four in the middle. And so it was an enormous plane. And it had multiple sections.

You know, they were broken up. From first class to, say, business class to then two economy classes. It was ginormous. I mean, it was a huge plane. So as you can imagine, it took forever to get on and off.

What about your plane to Belgium? That was 232. Oh, okay. So this was 343 across. That's gigantic.

That's like scary big. How does that thing get in the air? I don't know. Sticking with planes here for a second. Eric wants to know, do you bring your own sandwiches or snacks when you get on a plane? Not generally sandwiches, though I did actually coming back from Houston a couple of weeks ago. I had wraps.

I happened to have a soft-sided cooler with me. And so my mom had some stuff to make wraps. So I did have my own lunch. But yes, snacks. Granola bars, apples, always goldfish. I had gummy peaches on this trip.

Yes. And I'm trying to think what else I do that's pretty easy. Other fruit snacks like fruit strips. So yeah, that's generally what I do.

Easy snacks that can stick into my bag. And I believe that was your first time at Lambeau, correct? It was my first time for a regular season game at Lambeau. I had been to a pre-season game at Lambeau.

Not the same thing. And it was hot. Well, following up on that, BK wants to know, is there a sports event or stadium you would like to attend but haven't yet been able to? Oh, there's so many. I don't even know how to narrow that list down.

The Masters is probably one of the tops on the list. But also Dodger Stadium. Well, Dodger Stadium and it's at Oracle Park now in San Francisco.

Yeah, both of those are stadiums that I would like to see games at. But in terms of actual events, I've been to Major League Baseball playoff games. I've never been to a World Series game.

That would be a lot of fun. I've never been to, let's see, well, I've been to the Stanley Cup final games in multiple cities. I've never been to an NBA finals game.

So I think that would also be a cool buzz. Just the atmosphere and the excitement. And then, how about a World Cup game? And when the World Cup gets here in 2028, I am going. I'm not sure who will be playing and where and when and how, but I'm going.

I'm determined to go to both. A World Cup game is also the, wait, not 2028. Is that the Olympics in 2028?

Shoot. We know the World Cup is coming to the U.S. and Canada. Maybe it is. I think it's 26, right? Because the World Cup is this summer.

That's 22. So then four years after that. But the Olympics are also coming back to the United States. And those are two events in this next decade that I really want to get to. Let's see, World Cup sites coming up.

Let's see. I believe MetLife Stadium in New York City or New Jersey actually. It will be a host.

2026. Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Guadalajara. So it's actually North America. Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles. So yeah, these are just Miami and New York, New Jersey. So those, there's 16 host cities between Canada, Mexico, and the United States.

Okay, so 2026 World Cup in 20, I think the Olympics are here as well in 2028. Let me look at that too while you're asking. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence. We're doing Ask Amy Anything as we always do on the hump show.

Middle show of the work week. Let's see. Paris is next. Future. Is that next year? Paris is 2024. So yeah, to a future. Oh yeah, there I think it's Los Angeles coming up. Hold on.

Sorry, this is, the computer is taking a long time. Los Angeles 2028. Third ever, see I was right about something.

I was right about 28, so 26 and 28. But LA is hosting its third ever Olympics in 28. And the first games to be held in the U.S. since 2002. Okay, sorry, that was a little convoluted, but that's my list of sporting events. Well, as we're planning this all out and setting things together.

We are, yes. Our next question comes in from Connie who asks, if you do become a professional planner in the next chapter of your life, would you rather plan events or travel? I think I'd rather plan travel. I find great joy, I know it's so nerdy, in putting together an itinerary and finding the economic flight and Airbnb and hotel and car options. But I do love planning the trip and honestly, as nerdy as I am, sometimes the planning process is as much fun for me because it builds my anticipation and my excitement. I am one of those people who needs things to look forward to.

It helps me get through the grind and through some of the kind of blahs of life, the routine, the boring. And so, yes, the anticipation comes with the planning. So I'm all about planning. I'll plan your vacation. I'll plan your vacation to the hilt. You ready for this one? No, yes.

All right. Gregory asks, will you watch Star Wars and or when it starts streaming? And he says, may the force be with you.

The question is not will you, the question is when will you. So Jay, when will we? Jay is my Star Wars partner in crime, though let's be honest, I still watch a lot more Star Wars than he does.

I'm trying to get him into clones and rebels, but so far not yet. As I'm actively getting more into watching it this weekend, I tried to watch episode two. I watched the end of episode one. What happened? I fell asleep.

Oh, right. But I'm in there. I'm in there.

I'm getting my nose dirty. So when will we be watching episode one of Andor? Well, it is officially out now. So I think one, two and three, actually. Yes. Yes.

I think a little later today, tonight. OK, well, if you do not come through and this is just false hope that you're giving me, I'm going to find Kevin Coogler and watch with him instead. He's he's also a reputed Star Wars fan. We have a pact. We watch it together.

That's true. We do have a pact on Disney Plus, a Disney Plus pact. Group watch. Group watch. We should invite people to group watch with us sometime. Except the problem is you can't actually like communicate with people. It's not that kind of a group watch. So we text instead. But yeah, they should put a fake a FaceTime feature.

No, they should have. Not not for everyone. But OK, go ahead. Well, speaking of Disney Plus, Neil wants to know what's your favorite streaming service? I actually really like Paramount Plus, but also Amazon Prime. Paramount Plus is the CBS one and I watch so many CBS dramas. Plus, there's live sporting events.

So for now, I'll say Amazon Prime, but Paramount Plus is catching up. This one I thought was interesting. Mark asked, have you ever had teammates who are superstitious? Yes, we've all had teammates who are superstitious.

And I try to be supportive and encouraging, but I think it's all crap. OK, good. Oh, crap. All right.

Well, actually, one more before rapid fire. Be easy wants to know. Oh, he says, I know you love baking sweets. Enjoy baking other foods as well. I'm not as good at it, but I try. I've tried to make muffins. Again, not great at it, but I do try and breads. But my mom is better at baking bread. I did do a great pumpkin bread last year, though, which was a lot of fun. And so I'm going to. Yeah, I'm going to try. Actually, I have some recipes for fancy butters.

Uh huh. To go with some bread coming up around the holidays. I think I might just give you fancy butter for for your Christmas gift. Sounds good to me.

Rapid fire here to close this out. Board games or card games? Board games now, board games when I was young. Scone or biscuit? Biscuit with egg and sausage and cheese on it. Ranch or blue cheese? Oh, well, I'll take blue cheese with wings. Yes. Tent or RV?

Tent. Blue or green? Blue. Smoothie or milkshake?

Oh, well, milkshake, if I'm being honest, I have more smoothies, but milkshakes are better. Someone here, Stone Cold Steve Austin or The Undertaker? I'm sorry, does it make me less of a person and less of a radio host if I don't know who The Undertaker is? I mean, I've heard his name. I can't place his face. What does he look like? He's dead and then he comes alive. Stone Cold Steve Austin. Oh, dear.

OK, I just lost all my street cred. My nieces hate when I say that. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence, CBS Sports Radio. Get into all the Major League Baseball action with season two of Play Loud, exclusively on the MLB YouTube channel.
