It is! The JR Sportbrief Show here with you on the Infinity Sports Network. Happy Tuesday to you. I hope you had a good one. And if you didn't, I'm here.
I'll be hanging out with you for one more hour. This show gets started every single weekday at 6pm Eastern, 3 Pacific. You can always listen on the free Odyssey app, A-U-D-A-C-Y. You can listen live on your local Infinity Sports Network affiliate, Sirius XM Channel 158. And if you got yourself a smart speaker, ask the speaker to play the Infinity Sports Network. Technology is good.
You don't have to lift a finger. It's amazing. Anyway, we've had a busy show. We talked about the ins, the outs, the ups, the downs of what has been a wild start to the NFL season, the college football season, and we have so much more to get into over the next hour of this show.
Thank you so much to our guests as well. Armando Seguerro who joined us. Covers all things NFL for outkicking Fox. Thank you so much to Jake Trotter.
He came through from ESPN to talk all things college football. And it's been a busy day, a busy one. I wish we had more positive news.
All this news we talked about today, a lot of it has been lawsuits and police issues. What was something positive that happened today? Does anything stand out to you or something positive? Think about it to positive today. Here's a positive. Yes.
We don't have to talk about the debate. Oh, my God. That's a positive. Oh, wow.
It's going to be a wow. You're right. We don't have to. You know, we can talk about other things, but I'm thinking about sports, though, man.
There's nothing. Yeah. No one got hurt today. Like in the NFL?
Yeah. No one today actually got hurt. No games, no games off day for a lot of guys, right?
No one got arrested today. You sure about that? We don't know that yet. That's true. That we know of so far.
I was looking for a positive story that pops up. NFL legend ordered to turn in assets to pay major debt. Not good. Keep piling on. Why not? Former NFL MVP Adrian Peterson ordered to turn over assets in order to pay off massive amount of debt.
A Houston judge is saying, turn in your assets, help pay back a debt estimated to be north of $12 million. Okay. Oh, I already there. Okay.
All pro running back, took out a loan from a Pennsylvania lending company that was intended to pay off other lenders. Okay. Okay. Not good. Not good.
You did not pay it back. Interest has grown to eight. Okay. This is depressing to me. This is depressing.
Okay. Not going to read this. I'm trying to think of where I can find some. Is it, there used to be a website hickey. It's like good news, right? If I go to a good news.com, what happens? I'll probably end up somewhere. I'm not supposed to be. I was just about to say knowing the world the way it is, that has probably been taken over by not a website that's going to provide you good news.
It automatically directs me to my bible.com. Okay. That's positive. So other thoughts. Yeah. Well, good news.com took me to the Bible.
Okay. Things, things could be worse. Oh man, this is real bad.
This is awful. There's nothing like if I go to, I don't know the, this is not like a kid's like sports illustrated for kids doesn't even exist anymore. You remember that? Oh, I do. I used to love that.
Uh, that magazine used to come with the cards. Remember? Came out? Yeah. Yeah.
That was a good, good idea by SI back in the day. Now what do, what do uh, children like kids, kids like sports, right? They still like sports. Yeah. Oh yeah.
They still like sports. What, what, what do you get? Like what do you, what do you get?
What do you mean? What do you get? Like if you're a kid now and then you like sports, what do you get? Tick tock. Oh no.
Oh, follow your athletes and you see the sports in his area. That's what you get. Oh no. Sports cards have been replaced by small quick videos.
Oh no. But isn't it like an age gate on that? Like you ain't supposed to be on no tick tock if you're like seven, eight years old. What sports illustrated for kids was somebody for kids. Yes, but six talking for kids. They're trying to ban it in America. Kids are smart.
They know how to do the workarounds. Oh no. What are the outside of tick tock? What do they have now? I don't know. The answer is nothing. That's sad. They got, they got the cesspool that that is the internet just like everybody else.
That's right. Not a lot of positivity there. Definitely not for kids either.
This, this conversation just gets more depressing as we go along. I feel like our kids are doomed. They can't even like watch fun sports content. They got to wait for the Nickelodeon edition of the NFL, right?
That the Spongebob cast, is that what it is? That's right. That, that's a positive. Yeah, that's a good broadcast for kids like once a year.
But hey, better than zero times a year when you're growing up. This sucks. Oh my goodness. You know what? We might as well continue on with the doomed commentary.
It's that type of night. I think all across the country. Tyreek Hill, he is a free man. And his agent Drew Rosenhouse after the video came out, after we got the announcement or the statement from the NFL. Oh, not the NFL. The NFL said they were looking at it.
The Dolphins said they were, they were kind of shocked by what took place. Nobody approves of what happened to Tyreek Hill. And his agent said that the officers that were involved, they need to face the repercussions.
I don't know what he told Dan Leboutin. I think that police officers that, uh, they did that to Tyreek shouldn't be in that position. They should be let go. Look at the guy that just kicked him right there. That guy should be fired.
That's out of control. The guy that, that jumped in, put him in a chokehold. There's no place for a police officer to have a badge that operates like that when Tyreek wasn't being, uh, aggressive or violent or fighting back in any capacity. What, you know, that was horrendous how they treated him. They didn't treat him like a human being.
There's no place for police officers to be on the force. Okay. All right. Well, uh, that was one, one issue. Let's, let's lighten the mood a little bit, right?
Okay. Um, uh, last night the 49ers beat the Jets, but then the 49ers might, might still be punished. And we talked about it last night. Christian McCaffrey did not play in the game dealing with a calf issue slash Achilles issue. And he was called out right before the game started. And then we saw what happened during the game. They didn't need Tyreek Hill to smash the jets back up. Jordan Mason had 147 yards rushing and a touchdown.
That's abuse. That's something that Christian McCaffrey would do plus another touchdown in the air. But the fact is we know McCaffrey has been kind of hurt all throughout the, the, uh, the training camp period.
And so it was odd for him to be called out right before the game. But then right after the game, Jordan Mason on the field with ESPN, he kind of said that he had expected to play and start dating back to Friday. What? When did you find out that you were going to be starting? When did I find out?
Maybe Friday, Friday night, you know, something like that. Oh no, no, no, no, no. Wrong answer. Nope. He was asked again after he took a shower and I'm sure some media representative pulled up to him and said, uh, you got to fix that. He was asked the same question and he didn't like the question.
When did you find out that you'd be in the starting lineup? That question right there is, is where I'm at. That's why I don't like really talking to the media. Cause you say one thing wrong and then, you know, I don't know. Just skip that question.
Yeah. So the 49ers might be punished for not disclosing, fully disclosing this injury to Christian McCaffrey. Bottom line is if you knew on Friday he was not going to play and you deceived everybody up until pretty much game time and then said, he's not playing, that doesn't just, it doesn't just mess up the 49ers. It doesn't just mess up the game planning of the New York jets.
The NFL, I don't know if people know this or not. I mean, Q you went on a secret. They want to protect the people who are gambling. They want to maintain confidence in the product that people are not going to be screwed, that there is full transparency when it comes down to who is going to play and who is not going to play here.
Let me let you in on another secret. That's why the NFL has injury reports. And before we ever got into this open relationship with gambling, the NFL wanted to kind of maintain confidence in everybody that if you were going to bet, you could at least understand and know that we, the league are not going to screw you over.
And this is why the 49ers might be punished. Kyle Shanahan, he was asked about this injury setback, uh, to his superstar McCaffrey. And this is what he said is kind of set him back. No, he didn't have a setback. I mean, it was, it was on and off throughout the week.
He was able to practice throughout the week. Just, um, it was always bothering him to a degree and sometimes it goes away. Sometimes it comes back. And, uh, today was bothering him a little too much to where we didn't feel good about it. Is there a concern that this something that is going to linger over the next time?
Always. I mean, it's been lingering last few weeks and, but it's getting better and better and hopefully it'll be better next week. Let's be real. Who cares?
Right? If you're a 49ers fan, who cares? I re if I'm, if I'm a 49ers fan, I'm like, look, it's how Christian McCaffrey take half the year off. We need you at the end of the season.
Let you come back and, and, you know, develop some chemistry here with Brock Purdy and let's just keep it moving. The 49ers are in the same boat. And I got to tell you, I think they're in a better situation in the Buffalo bills.
Sorry. But the 49ers are one of those teams that just, they need to get over the hump. The 49ers, the bills, the Ravens, enough is enough is enough is enough.
Just one, the whole thing. And so who cares if Christian McCaffrey is playing outside of Christian McCaffrey Santa himself, Hey guys, you know what? I want to have another 1000 yard rushing 1000 yard receiving season. Outside of that, what, what is there for him to play for?
Just to be a pro bowler and pat his resume, go, go win a championship. You've had enough of this. We know you're one of the best running backs that we've seen in the league. Dual threats. Got that McCaffrey uh, that McCaffrey blood in you.
It means he can run and jump, do a triathlon and jump over buildings. The 49ers don't need this man. Keep running out Jordan Mason and do yourself a favor. Tell them next time to just shut up. Don't let them talk to the media. The 49ers are going to take on the Minnesota Vikings next. Minnesota Vikings are going to have a reality check after, you know, dismantling the New York giants or I guess playing against them because what is there to dismantle for the New York giants and the 49ers?
They don't need McCaffrey. Tell them to tell them to take a long, long vacation. It's as simple as that. 8 5 5 2 1 2 42 27 that's 8 5 5 2 1 2 42 27 that's the closest I could get to the good news. Did I, did I nail those? Anything I just said? Good.
The 49ers don't need McCaffrey. That's good, right? Yeah. And you had an undrafted Frazier running back, have a career night on the, on a game, by the way, this is crazy where he had the most carry since high school and he, and he almost got, well, he did get in trouble after the game. He won't get in trouble that the organization might. Oh yeah. But he has to, he has to feel it.
No, it's not a big deal. He'll feel it if he ran for like 30 yards on 25 carries when you run for, you know, and combined what for over 150 total yards on a touchdown. I think he has a little bit more security. You don't think he went to sleep last night and was just like, damn, I had a good game. When Christian come back, they're going to cut me.
Cause I'm, I cost the team a quarter million dollars. You don't, you don't think that's sitting in the back of his head? No, come on. No, no, no.
Okay. You gotta think about the career. If he gets, look, he won't get cut by this, but let's just say he does get cut.
That's that's three weeks from now is problem. He had a career night. Imagine you had the best show of your radio career and you said something after the show like, Oh yeah, I knew I was, I was filling in for three weeks and they only said that he was sick today. You wouldn't let that bother you.
Okay. There's a high of having that career night on, by the way, a big stage Monday night football. He'll be that moment. He'll get picked up by the bangles if he gets cut, right? That's well, that's true. If he gets cut, he'll have a lot of suitors after last night.
You'll get a job. Oh, here's some good news. It took us a while. It was Justin Fields at least. It looks like Justin Fields is going to start another game because Russell Wilson still is not healthy. That calf is still bothering him and Justin Fields is going to get another start apparently while they're preparing him as if he is next up for these Steelers. They got the Denver Broncos and boat nicks and tell me the Steelers shouldn't go to enough.
They should. Mike Tomlin gave an update today. What the hell is going on with Russell Wilson's leg and what's going on with fields? Is he going to play?
I just visited with him. Uh, he feels better today than he did, uh, over the weekend. And so what that means, I don't know as we sit here today, um, I know that we're going to take the same approach that we take with a lot of people in terms of injury. Um, we'll first start with his participation and his level of participation, his quality of participation. Um, over the course of the week we'll be analyzing whether he's capable of protecting himself, um, whether he's capable of being productive. Um, when we get to those, you know, when we get to those points, that's when we will ponder his inclusion or not.
Um, and when that happens we'll probably be a component of that equation. But as I sit here today, uh, we're preparing as if Justin is going to be our quarterback. Damn that's the happiest I've ever heard Mike Tomlin. That's not saying a lot. We're trying to find positivity here people. I'm absolutely trying and trying my best.
It's the JR sport reshow here with you on the infinity sports network. 8 5 5 2 1 2 42 27. That's 8 5 5 2 1 2 42 27 and positivity. Damn it.
I mean today's this day specifically it's a night. You got to try to find as much positivity as possible. When we come back on the other side, I'm going to do my best to find some.
If you have some knock yourself out, call me up. It's the JR sport reshow here on the infinity sports network. Did we find positivity at the white house?
I think we did. I'll explain on the other side. The JR sport reshow don't move. You are listening to the JR sport brief.
Oh, thanks. I appreciate that. I've only been doing this, well, in this form for about, I don't know, 2018. I've been doing this, talking about sports for 15 years. Nice. It's good stuff. It's good to be here at JR sport brief.
It had been a minute. 8 5 5 2 1 2 42 27. That's 8 5 5 2 1 2 42 27. Thinking about some good news. I'm waiting to find some.
8 5 5 2 1 2 42 27. Andre is here from Mississippi. You're on the JR sport reshow. Andre, what's going on with you? What's up, man? How are you? I'm doing great. I'm loving this college football.
I'm loving it. NFL. Okay. My question for you.
Yes. Who has, who has followed from the one, the top quarterbacks? It's like, ah, they look like Ryan Leaf out there. Do you got Russell Wilson? I think you got the show. Who, who has failed the problems down in the NFL?
And this is a short period of time. One of those who we can't call, we can't say either one of these guys has turned into Ryan Leaf, Ryan. Hey, I watched the game. You watch them two down.
Yeah. But Ryan Leaf couldn't even, he couldn't even last in the league. At least these guys have had long enough careers. I mean, Russell Wilson is looking at, I mean, there was a point in time he was on a hall of fame trajectory and we can't say that about Ryan Leaf. Ryan Leaf and even make it to his next contract. At least at least we can say that about the Sean Watson. Although if you, you listen to the tea leaves or read the tea leaves is a, his contract has the potential of being terminated. Hey, well, I tell you what, the loser of that Cleveland fame, one of those coaches will get fired before the middle of the season. And it does week two.
Whoever go all in two is in trouble. I can tell you that now. Okay. All right. Well, thank you, Andre. Appreciate your man. All right. You have a good one. You as well. Shout out Sandra from Mississippi.
Yeah. Happy man. I'm happy for him. The Browns are going to take on the Jaguars.
Uh, by the way, Russell Wilson is likely unlikely to play against the Denver Bronco. Who's who's getting fired. What are you talking about? I appreciate the enthusiasm, Andre.
I really do. But I mean, it's nobody getting fired. Not yet. And Ryan Leaf, we can't put the Sean Watson in that category. He's a totally different situation.
And Russell Wilson, Russell Wilson would roll his eyes at you if he heard what you just said. Not nice. Anyway, I think we found some, some positivity.
Hickey. Did we find some positivity? I think we can say we did in Washington, D.C. I know.
Rare, right? Wow. Today was a day. Listen, folks, the South Carolina Gamecocks, the women and the Yukon men, the Huskies, they were both honored at the White House today for their twenty twenty four NCAA championships. And they were honored in in separate ceremonies.
The White House could have been lazy as hell and said, everybody in the room, take the pictures and leave. They took the time to honor them separately. We know about South Carolina. They went thirty eight.
No. Dawn Staley won her third championship since taking over. We know about the Huskies.
They won their second title in a row. Thirty seven and three. And so that meant the president of the United States of America, Joe Biden. He was there presiding over the ceremonies. And so you have to tell jokes, right?
Or something like that. I don't know what he did. Hickey's he was able to to attend both, right? He was there to attend both. I don't know many jokes he made, but at least offered praise on both teams.
Tremendous seasons. That's good. That's yeah, that's some positivity out of Washington.
How about that? Let's take a listen to President Joe Biden. He showed a lot of love to the South Carolina Lady Gamecocks for winning the championship this year. Listen to this. You never gave up. You never gave up.
You kept the faith and you just finished the job. Look, take the title game against Iowa in the back and forth game. Everyone had to step up. Nine players recorded double digits in nine minutes. Double nine. Four players scored in double figures. Your bench outscored Iowa's bench. Thirty seven to nothing. And here's another big number.
The championship game was the most watched basketball game in five years, peaking at over 24 million viewers. Thank you. Who's Joe Biden's producer? Who's producer for Joe Biden?
Someone who's reading the box, girl. Quick. How many stats could we just throw up here really fast? You mean to tell me Joe Biden didn't watch the game? Does he remember? Well, I hope he got better. I hope you got better things to do, right?
That's true. What was his game? March or something like that?
Early April. He's sitting around watching the game. He got a President Zelensky on the other line and giving him advice and telling him what he needs to do out in Ukraine.
And he's watching the Lady Gamecocks play. Why not? Just like everybody else. So I can never be president.
What are the other responsibilities? I can't bypass NFL Sunday to actually get some diplomacy done. No way. Does the president does he? That's that's his day off, too, right? I don't. Do they have a day off? I don't think so.
They have to have close to one. You go to the I mean, we've had presidents, they go to the beach, they go to a vacation home, play golf. Like you go to church in the morning and then you spend time with your family and that's it, right? I guess you get a few hours here and there.
Maybe not a full day. Hope nobody calls you? I mean, I'm sure.
And guess what? I'm sure people are always calling. Man, that job has to. Who wants that job? Well, we've got a couple of people who want that job today. But dammit, who wants that job?
Sheesh. Could you imagine having a job where something goes wrong? It just like what happens if they need to wake you up? Like does someone shake you in the room?
Like how do they wake you up? Good question. Yeah, I would say so. I don't want to call. Like, you know, hearing the alarm go off would be it's probably a call.
It's definitely a call. It's three a.m. in the morning. Something is going on in Japan. You know, phone goes off. Like who like who's waking you? Does every light and the residents go on and alert, alert, alert president. We have a problem. Like what?
How does that work? It's a terrible way to wake up. Lights on alert, alert.
Feels like it sounds like the world is ending. Well, I mean, when you're the president of the United States of America and that's kind of the job. Guess you're right. Not fun.
It's why it ages us so much. No, listen, it's better being Roger Goodell, isn't it? Oh, that money.
Oh, yeah. Big time. He's making two mil from every team.
Sixty a year. Yeah, not bad. He doesn't have it bad. Adam Silver doesn't have it bad. What's the other guy that nobody likes from baseball? Rob Manfred may have it a little bit bad. You think so? He has no allies anywhere. He does.
Nobody likes Rob Manfred. They got it. They look. And I guess they are.
Well, I guess there is much of an equivalent of a president as can possibly be. I guess. Anyway, eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. That's eight five five two one two forty two twenty seven. Of course, on the other side, we're going to take a break. We've tried to find a positivity. And surprisingly, it came out of Washington today as a Joe Biden celebrated in the White House, celebrated the accomplishments of South Carolina and Yukon.
Matter of fact, Marco Balletti. Would you have liked to have been president? A cool job, right? Or a terrible job?
I'm going to pass. Thank you. Late night phone calls, responsibility. I was a director of a school and I got enough phone calls all day long where it didn't matter what time it was. Thank you.
I'm going to pass director of a school. And you would think and really what could go back? What phone calls you get? Oh, man. Well, I mean, stupid things that, you know, with something with the building alarm or something going on with this. I mean, I was there with Sandy Hit on the northeast here in Jersey. So that was a big deal. And trying to, you know, figure that out and make sure everybody was OK, even though we weren't there because in the middle of the night, like there's just nonsense that comes with it. You're like, what do we do?
Like everything winds up. You joke that everything's got to be a memo and a post it. There's so many things like, why are we even talking about this? This is not a problem.
What are we doing? Ain't nobody called you on a Sunday at like nine o'clock and said, you know, fix this. That didn't happen. Yeah.
Some of the again, it was a broadcasting school. So something new wasn't working. A board doesn't work.
A microphone doesn't work. OK, we'll take care of it on Monday. Well, I just want you to know, I don't care right now, but OK, we'll take care of it. OK, so you're saying if Marco Belletti can't have a day off, the president doesn't get a day off. Well, I mean, I think they got more vacation time than I did.
I feel like they they hit Martha's Vineyard a hell of a lot more than I did during my time. Wow. Wow. People want this job, not me. Well, theirs comes with money.
See, mine just came with headaches. They make the money later. Right. Sure.
Later. Now, before later, what is the president's salary? Is it is it is it 180 or something like that?
Sixty? I have no idea. No, they don't make it. Then they don't make a lot of money. You know, like the salary that we pay, the taxpayers for the president.
Right. The president only makes. Let's see.
It's it's picky. How much you think the president makes a year? I'll do what you say. Like one hundred eighty. I think that's what it is. Let's see. Yearly salary president.
What is this? That might be a little high. Oh, two hundred.
OK. Two hundred. The salary has remained unchanged for 30 years. That's shocking, actually. Why?
It goes to show you that it's nonsense. Thirty years ago, that's what they made. Forty years ago, 50 years ago.
Now doesn't even matter. That's that's that's that's that's a shell. Two hundred. Well, if you're the president, what the hell are you paying for? Well, you're paying for nothing. That's the point. But on top. So it should be enough to be with you.
You know, I go off now. It's a starting point. And that's getting taxed, too, right? I mean, of course it has to be. You got to tax the president. I don't know.
I feel like they know how to get around that. No, isn't that the point? Which president? Well, what are we talking about? I wasn't naming names. I was putting everybody in the same bucket. Don't put me out on the limb in that bucket. That goes in.
Just say if you make it two hundred thousand dollars a year, you got to give up. Like, I don't know. What is that? I don't know. Fifty of it.
Forty, fifty. I think. Right. I don't know. Not my tax bracket. I don't I don't know. I'll go.
Sam stops for no one. Right. He doesn't. But I mean, if you're the president, you get up and you're doing this to yourself.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'll just say everybody got to pay their taxes, OK? But if you're the president, what are you paying for?
You get up. The house is taxpayer funded, right? You don't got to pay that. You have food that's there.
People are waiting at your beck and call. They're paid for every meal that you like. You don't pay for nothing. Is that the is this the only part? Well, I mean, is this the only person in America doesn't have to pay for nothing for four years? The president and his family.
Is that who it is? I'm serious here. There's got to be something else.
But I can't think of anything off the top of my I mean, honestly, even their clothes like nothing. You're right. None of it should be bought by them. It should all be there because they have enough responsibility and enough to do. Last thing they got to worry about is, you know, jumping on Amazon to make sure they got pants that fit for tomorrow. Like, that's not that's not supposed to be part of their responsibility.
Man, I don't even think about that. They got a they got a seamstress and the tailor in the White House. Yeah, of course they do. Of course they do. You do. They got to worry about which tie they got to pick out.
No, no, no, no. Somebody else got to do that for them. There is a nice J. Crew like about five minutes from the White House on, I think, like on K Street.
It's a nice one. Yeah. I don't think you're hitting like the clearance rack. You see, like, you know, any president at any time of your lifetime just kind of going through the the hangers shooting, shooting, trying to figure out what what shirt they're going to match with these pants. No, I don't think so. Yeah.
Maybe being president ain't so bad. I don't know. I don't know. Not for me, though. And too many things.
Too many things. Anyway, it's the J.R. Sport re-show here with you on the Infinity Sports Network. Hey, congratulations again to UConn in South Carolina.
I'm sure they ate the finest of foods in the White House. Meanwhile, I'm here in the studio. I'm hungry.
I got a cup of water. Maybe I should have played basketball. Anyway, on the other side, I'm going to share with you a few things that took place this day in sports history. You were listening to the J.R. Sport Brief. It's the J.R. Sport Brief show here with you on the Infinity Sports Network. 855-212-4227.
That's 855-212-4227. What a day we've had. I feel like this is kind of like a little bit of a mop up as we have followed week one of the NFL season. It's done.
It's over. We had a chance today to look at everything that has taken place between last Thursday and last night with the New York Jets disaster out in San Francisco. And now we can look forward to the week that we have ahead. And by the time I'm on the air with you tomorrow, we're going to be looking forward to another another week. We start things off here. Pretty cool.
Pretty fun. The Buffalo Bills are going to be down in Miami. Josh Allen is going to have to run around and do all the work and we'll see if Miami can just go out there and outscore them. And hopefully between now and Thursday, we don't have some type of wild scenario in situation where, you know, I don't know, Tyreek Hill, maybe take a Uber to the game. Some of the other interesting matchups we have coming up for NFL week two. 49ers at Vikings. Sam Donald is going to be on a high. This time he'll be at home taking on the 49ers. The Chargers at the Panthers.
Oh man, Bryce Young. Show a pulse. Show us something. You got the Seahawks and the Patriots. The Patriots surprised everybody with a week one victory. The Saints and the Cowboys. Cowboys shouldn't handle the Saints knowing that the Saints will probably beat them. Giants and commanders.
Commanders will probably win that game. The Bucks and the Lions. Packers and the Colts. Rams and the Cardinals. Steelers at the Broncos. We'll see more of Justin Fields. Man, we got a lot bears at Texans.
That's the prime time game. 855-212-4227 Lane is calling from Alabama. What's up, Lane?
Hey, Jay. I'm going to talk to you about that one call that the rest made calling Isaiah likely out of bounds. OK. Last Thursday's game.
OK, sure. I really think that. He of course that that toe was on the white line, but. His foot was mostly in the end zone. Yeah, but if you if you if your foot touches the outside, it's out of bounds is that you gotta keep it inside. And I wanted to bring that up because when he Patrick Mahone said after.
Yeah, he was just saying he was saying if he wore white cleats, it would maybe disguise a little bit. But if you touch the line, yeah, that's just that's how it goes. Unfortunately, it better luck in the postseason.
OK, maybe they'll face each other again in the playoffs. All right. All right. Thank you, Lane, for calling from Alabama. I need to let you know about the player of the week sponsored by the Navy Federal Credit Union who proudly serves the armed forces, DOD veterans and their families. Their members are the mission.

He took a 43 yards to the house midway through the fourth quarter. This ended up being the game winning score Chicago going over the Titans 24 to 17. Stevenson finished with four tackles and two passes defended in the game.
He is your defensive player of the week sponsored by the Navy Federal Credit Union. That's going back in time. Let's go even further back to this day in sports history. Back in the days when I was young, I'm not a kid anymore.
But some days I sit and wish I was a kid again. It's time for this day in sports history. You see, back in those days, we had radio and you couldn't see anything. And it was primitive and lousy and we liked the J.R. Sport Brief Show.
I wish I was 50 years younger and I'd kick your ass. It is the J.R. Sport Brief Show here with you on the Infinity Sports Network. Let's go back in time to 1972. This is when the U.S.S.R. beat the USA in a basketball game. A lot of confusion. Man, they stopped the game and the Soviets got a bucket.
It was just nonsense. United States of America, they lost for the first time in the Olympics. Listen to this courtesy of USA. Now the clock shows three seconds. There is time for the Russians to go to their big man, Alexander Belov.
They're going to try. Alexander Belov. Between two American defenders. Back there with him. Jim Ford and the Russian team is mobbed. Alexander Belov. And this time it is over. Everybody, the USA refused to accept the silver medal. Let's go back in time.
September 10th, the year is 2000. Randy Johnson, the 12th pitcher to reach 3000 strikeouts. This man helped the Diamondbacks.
Well, unfortunately, they lost to Florida four to three in 12 innings. But listen to the big unit do what he does best. Strike somebody out. When you're trying to join only 11 other men in the history of this game for 3000, it's a pretty safe bet he realizes he's a strike away from baseball history. One and two on Mike Lowell and Johnson fires swung on and missed a fastball at 97 miles per hour. And on this his 37th birthday, Randy Johnson becomes the 12th pitcher in major league history to strike out 3000 batters.
Big unit. At least he didn't hit a bird in the process. Hey, September 10th, 2006. Peyton Manning. He took on some guy named Eli Manning. This is the first time we saw two brothers start a game at quarterback in the NFL. Hey, this guy named Peyton. Well, they beat the Giants 26 to 21. Listen, well, in 87 seasons in the National Football League counting this afternoon 12,183 games have been played.
Never has a brother started against a brother. They offset Reed to die as the running back. They fake it to him and he's gonna roll under pressure throws caught Clark touchdown. So we're down to maybe the final play of the game with seven seconds and the needs 55 yards. And that pass is out of bounds. And that is it.
No. Two successful brothers. What else am I going to say? Who cares who beat who they are on TV making money together. They're going into the Hall of Fame. Well, Eli is going to go into the Hall of Fame.
Hey, you can't wait for that, right? You don't care. I do not care now. You don't care care about his brother, not Eli.
Okay. Anyway, good for both of them. That's a money making family. 855 212 42 27.
That's 855 42 27. Ashley is calling from Sacramento. You're on the JR sport. We show us up, Ashley. Not much, but you know, after last night's night.
Niners is just game. Aaron Rogers. He looked every bit of 40 and I'm just curious from your point of view. How much do you think that just simply because they were rogers is 40.
How much Ashley? I'm sorry. You sound kind of distant. You said Aaron Rogers. He was bad last night.
What happened now? What? Aaron Rogers to me was every bit of 40 years old. Oh, he's old. I want to know how much you think that's just simply because he is 40 versus how much you think it is the Niners defense.
Well, I think it's a combination of it all. I want to say it's more of he hasn't played with this group. He missed all of last year and he's about to be 41 years old.
I think that that plays a big part into it. And the 49 is defense. I mean, even if you look at Warner running around popping footballs out of Breeze Hall, like this is they're a great defense.
They're a good team. But Rogers is also old and I think it's going to take time for him to warm up. I mean, we talked about this earlier in the show, just as inability to scramble.
And is that going to change in four or five, six, seven weeks? I think it might, but I'm not expecting the same guy that we saw four and five or six years ago. So I still think he's going to be a good option for the Jets. He's going to be a better option than what they had in Zach Wilson. And the Jets are just going to have to kind of take their medicine and swallow it and see if he could turn things around.
He's a better option than what they have had. Thank you so much, Ashley, for calling from Sacramento. You've been listening to the J.R. Sport re-show here with you on the Infinity Sports Network. I want to thank our guests who came through today. We had quite a few of them.
