Michael Jackson died on the day I was drafted. The Atlanta Hawks select Jeff Teague. Everybody was at my house crying. They were at your house and they should have been crying for me.
I'm about to change my family's life. They were crying about Mike. Earlier on the show, NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero, Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona.
Coming up, your phone calls, latest news and more. And now it's Rich Eisen. Yeah, that's right. Hour number three of the Rich Eisen Show is on the air.
Day number five. Yeah, I know. Sometimes, you know, you get lost in translation. It's called getting old, Rich.
842. Bro, let me tell you something. I had one of those moments where I go back to the Kehrig machine and it's flashing this white light. And I'm like, what the hell is going on?
And I just needed to get my glasses to read it. And then I'm like, that was the other day when I'm like, what the F is descaling? I mean, what is what is descaling mean? Isn't that what it is? Know what?
Isn't that what a snake does when it molts out of its skin? You might be right about that. You're definitely right. Yeah, right.
Descale of fish. I mean, like, oh, you after round and found out what happens when you take your F around and find out chart down and don't properly take it back to your original spot. I think that you against the Kehrig machine is maybe the most underrated rivalry of 2025.
So far, that is so true. I do. I rage against that machine. Your response yesterday when you said what I just came out on the floor, but I had no idea you were already talking about descaling. I came out on the floor. I'm like, well, first of all, I came back to Florida, grabbed my glasses to go back to see what the hell is blinking white light on the Kehrig machine.
And then I come back. I had no idea in the interim of me going to see what it was. We were talking about descaling.
I came back and just said, what the F is descaling? I had no idea. It was like perfect timing. Perfect.
Even when I don't even know it was like somebody wrote that scene out, except it just happened. Thank you. Uh, Cooper flag is meeting with the media right now in Dallas. So all we have it, huh? Oh, we have it. How about that? He's we've already turned around a soundbite.
Cooper flag, the new Dallas Maverick on his lofty expectations and being the face of a franchise because as you know, uh, the previous one, um, he's now a much skinnier Los Angeles resident hit it. Yeah. I mean, I'm, I'm coming in just trying to learn and trying to get better every single day. Um, and I think I can do that to the best of my ability. I think expectations and pressures that other people, you know, will put on me and our team that will kind of work itself out.
So, you know, I'm just trying to come in and be the best that I can be and just win at the highest level. Just one baby. Can I just say something real quick about this? I don't think people not, if you're not from Maine, like I don't think you understand how big of a deal this is.
Okay. Uh, you are from Maine, so you have the floor, sir. The fact that the number one overall pick in the NBA draft as a kid that was born and raised in Maine, like not even Southern Maine, where I, where I lived and my family still lives. Northern Maine, which is the middle of nowhere. Maine is a state of a million people. Okay. That's about what, an eighth of what's here in Los Angeles. It's, it's, uh, it's less than double the size of Staten Island. Maine's most famous, uh, famous professional athletes.
Okay. Are Joan Benoit Samuelson, who won the Olympic marathon medal and Mike Bortick who play was a journeyman infielder in the American league. The fact that the NBA, a global sport has the number one overall pick from this state is just unbelievable and remarkable. And I can't talk about it enough.
It is the most craziest thing I've ever seen. And he's happy he's there. Right. And he went to high, he played for his high school team. He played for it before going to Florida over the last couple of years and playing for one of those big academies. But you know, he played for the main AAU team and like put himself on the map by going to all these tournaments. He reclassified, like he should be entering his senior year or he just finished his senior year and going to college.
He reclassified so he could play up and turn himself into the number one overall pick. I just, Maine is a small, it's a small town state. It's a small community state. And the fact that he did this and accomplished this hat is off to you, sir. And, and talk about how the world is small. He is now the guy that Dallas, Texas is looking towards to replace the biggest star in the history of Slovenian basketball. It's crazy. Like, and, and that his arrival there coincides with this moment is crazy. It is like a mad lib. It's wild. My head just explodes thinking about it all the time.
But it's the truth. You could see this comment a couple of years ago that this kid was kind of on the rise after a hot summer circuit. And you're just like, is he really going to be the number one overall pick?
And now the fact that he, he had Dallas, it had him fall in their laps after trading away, Luca, the face globally, one of the faces globally basketball. I just can't get over it. Way to rep the two Oh six, bud. Two Oh seven.
Pardon me. Sean and Cincinnati. We'll take your call. What's going on, Sean? You're there. Sean.
First of all, nothing. Robinson is from Maine. Okay. So let's not say that there's nobody. Wait a minute.
Hold on a minute. Duncan's nice. This is, is Sean main checking you?
It sounds like have you been? He's from York, which might as well be, I got you. You were, you were like one man. You were like one Maine for all. And now you're slagging on parts of Maine just cause Sean and Cincinnati is Maine checking you. Hold on.
He went to Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire, which is pretty smooth. Let's not get involved with these border wars, these new England border wars. Good job, Sean. They don't know what that said.
That said Duncan Robinson and Cooper Flagg are, are, are both basketball players. And I was going to apologize to Brockman actually. Cause last time I called in, I told him I didn't have any sympathy over the Devers trade.
And then seeing my manager, he has a nice shiny head on your show. Talk about my favorite year. Kind of warmed my heart. Ladies and gentlemen, Sean and Cincinnati. We're all one. We listen, we're all sports brings people together. Let's unite, not divide.
I don't know why you're not division in this world. What's in your mind, sir. What's on your mind today? I called because I had a what's more likely for you on this Friday. Okay.
So as a commander's fan, it brings me great joy to know that my team isn't the biggest train wreck in our division anymore. Okay. Uh, so my what's more likely for you today is what's more likely the giants lose every one of their home games where the Browns lose every one of their home games. Now you're dividing us again.
That's more like those are usually positive. Uh, okay. Let's, let's, let's indulge Sean. Uh, do you have the giant schedule?
Pop it up here. Um, their home games, Kansas city chargers, Eagles, Niners, Packers, Vikings, Cowboys. Oh man. Giants. I think get your tickets now, man. Um, and then the Brown's home schedule. Let's see, we got Brown's home schedule.
Bengals, Packers, Vikings, dolphins, Ravens, Niners, Bills, Steelers beat the Niners. Okay. Uh, if I had to choose, uh, I'll go, I'll go giant. That's kind of what I was hoping. You're hoping you're welcome, Sean.
I guess you're welcome as an order. The giant reason that the Eagles won the sewer bowl this year. They just let the safe home go for nothing.
And I still hold that against them. So, all right, Sean, thank you for the call. Sean in Cincinnati going negative, but he started positively by main checking Chris Brockman. Duncan Robinson was undrafted. Is there anybody else who wants to main check Chris?
Do you want to look up best main athletes? I figured he did that, but let's see. Brockman did not have to do that. I don't think he didn't. I believe that you did not.
He went main check. Chris, you were mentioning before the show today is an anniversary of sorts. Oh my God.
It's the 35th anniversary of Days of Thunder release. Oh, great movie. Okay. Tom Cruise, NASCAR driver. Uh, Robert Duvall, right? Yeah, yeah. Awesome.
Kidman. And I think there's rumors that Tom Cruise is working on a sequel to Days of Thunder. Also news this week that, that Aaron Sorkin is writing a social network sequel, right? So I guess he saw maybe the success of the Top Gun sequel, Top Gun Maverick. He wants to do a sequel as he would refer to as a Thunder sequel, right?
Like as Rob Lowe said, he used to, he was the first guy that he ever met that would shorten the names of the titles to just one word, which you thought was particularly bad-ass. It wouldn't be days, right? It could be days. It would be Thunder.
As Rob Lowe had said, one of them is always cooler. Thunder is cooler than days. Back down to days?
When you say days, I think days of our lives. Right. And it got me thinking. And Aaron Sorkin's doing a social network, a social network, a network. Well, network is a different movie. That would be a social.
Oh, interesting. Okay. What movie needs a sequel or would you like to see a sequel of?
Needs, needs is a heavy lift. Needs is a tough word, but what would you like to see a sequel? Because I'm thinking about some of my favorite movies.
I got one too. Because when you say a sequel, then it takes what is somewhat perfect already and potentially ruins it. Or Godfather part two or, you know, Empire Strikes Back are perfect examples of the sequel being better than the original.
Those movies were also released pretty close with the original. We're talking about, for instance, would you want to see, would you want to see Shawshank, Shawshank to have a sequel where you see what does happen in Z watt nail? I think that would be great. Would it? I kind of think so. Would it?
How could it be better than what? We're getting another sequel this summer. We're getting a happy Gilmore too. What is happy been up to? I mean, don't you want to see what these characters have been up to? We've talked about it with Kevin Costner before. Like what would Crash Davis be up to? Right. I would love to see a sequel to Bull Durham would be phenomenal. Phenomenal. Okay.
A tin cup. What is he up to? Well, I mean, I, a Bull Durham sequel, I would love to see, like what is Crash Davis up to?
New Glalouche, Annie, what are they? And then obviously it would be about in the same way Top Gun Maverick, it would be about the kids having their own storylines. The threads to the past, to the past movie. That's a good one. I would accept that. We're getting a Spaceballs 2 coming up soon as we saw from, so, you know, do you have one you want to chime in here?
I did a couple like do the right thing. I want to know what happened the next day after, you know, the crowd just tore up Sal's famous pizzeria. Radio Raheem got killed.
What happens the next day, man? So you'd have to get a whole new cast to play those characters though. No, there's only one that died.
No, but what I'm saying is that the next day they're older. I thought we meant, you know, you've got to, like, you can't just say, I want to see a sequel of it. And then you want to see what happened the next day because it's like a sequel now, like for instance, Midnight Run, perfect movie. Would I want to see what happened between Walsh and the Duke and whatever, you know, and Jimmy Serrano, but sadly, you know, Charles Grodin is no longer with us, nor is Dennis Farina, nor is, you know, Philip Baker Hall, who is Sidney. He wanted to bury a telephone in his head. You know what I mean? John Ashton's passed away.
I have a cream soda. So, yeah, so then they would have to be movies relatively, like give me the movie you want to see a sequel to. Well, Top Gun Maverick came out 30 years later. There may be, you know, Days of Thunder is going to be 35 years later. You can do one a little bit later if you're just checking in on kind of the Robert Duvall is still alive.
Yeah, I don't know if he's up to 90. See, here's one that you could be radically. Wow. Animal House with all new actors, because obviously now you're talking a remake.
No, you could do following Animal House post the Kevin is a couple. You really want to see what happened? The flounder. Yeah, I do. D-Day.
Where is D-Day? One of them is definitely the dean of the school. Yeah. Lutarsky is a senator.
Is he still around? I'll give you a school. I will give you a school one, though, that deserves a sequel. I want to see a sequel to The Breakfast Club. Oh, I really was going to say that right after.
But then you were like, I have to get you back. But no, you see what they are now. And obviously they've had kids or haven't.
And where are they now? And how how their kids in this day and age have, you know, I like that growing issues or maturity issues, right? Maybe they go to detention. They go to detention. There you go.
Ritz, come on. Detention still exists. Summer school detention still exists. Kids in school. Excuse me.
My children don't go to detention. So how dare you? How dare you? How dare you? No, we're not. My children are perfect. What's the matter with you?
Who's this guy? I don't know, but Cage is definitely going to detention. Did you get a call once? Oh, yeah, we did get a call once. Cage is for sure going to detention. Of course. He's gotten a call about Cage. For sure.
We've already gotten several calls. Breakfast Club would be a good one. Yeah, I like that one.
Do you have one, Chris? Well, I was just thinking about my, you know, my favorite sports movies, you know, Tin Cup and Bull Durham. You talked about that, haven't we?
They did do well. Maybe they tried to do a remake of White Man Can't Jump, but an actual sequel to see what Billy and Sidney are up to. That would be fun. I think about it in terms of sports movies. Hmm. Because Gladiator, they ended up making one recently. Right. Top Gun. They've they're they did it. They're going to make a third one.
Hmm. Back to school. Back to school again. Oh, my God.
I love my. No, I don't think that one needs a sequel. What happened to Thornton Mellon?
He got a degree. But the fact that I guess we need to think of movies that when I wouldn't have expected a social network to get a sequel and that it's happening. Well, I mean, there's a it's a it's a rich subject that is ripped right straight from the headlines.
Zuckerberg's done a lot since then. Right. So it does make perfect sense.
That's a good one. I mean, I love the way obviously they did with the Karate Kid. Right.
With all the Cobra Kai. That was. Yep.
That's that's what I'm thinking about. The Breakfast Club is they imagined it in a way that it's not a sequel straight up of like what, you know, continuing the story specifically of the movie, but branching out into other aspects of that person's life. It's kind of neat. I just always thought, like, it would be cool to see the kids the next day.
And if that bond ever if it lasted or did they just write about being right, like that next year in school, where they were, they just walk by each other in the hall. Spoiler alert. I mean, Happy Gilmore is just going to hit straight on the target of exactly what the original was. And hopefully it's going to be just as funny. And I think it will be based on what I've seen. Did you notice that Boban is playing what looks like the Richard Kiel character? Yeah, it's great.
Oh, trust me, they're they I mean, Sandler knows what he's doing, obviously. And obviously, you know, I think that one's going to be great. What about Ferris Viewer's Day Off? That's a great one. That's a great one.
Like, what is Ferris up to now? And right in the in the in the and he's trying to get his kid to go to school, but the kid is not is doing exactly what he did. Right. And he's trying to just like, you know, you know what? No, no, straight narrow. Yes.
You know, it'd be better. Yes. I love that kid. His kid is a bookworm, right?
No social. And he wants him to have Ferris his kid to loosen up and have some fun. OK, you go.
He pulls him out of class and makes him have a day off. I like that. I like that. Look at us workshopping. And I like that one much better than my idea. OK, like a Western or something. What was Step Brothers?
I know we've we asked them before about it. Again, the idea of of. Taking a perfect movie and potentially ruining it by giving a sequel, what about Unforgiven?
Oh, yeah, I believed him. What about taking the characters from Unforgiven? What happened to Willie Money when he went back? You know, and obviously would be somebody younger than Clint Eastwood doing it. Or the offspring of Willie Money and create a whole new Western out of it.
Yeah, I love that idea. Braveheart to never like, oh, I know. Like what happened? What happened next?
Yeah. What happens next? And just create a whole new movie out of it.
That's not a bad one either. Yes, Step Brothers Two is not happening. And we can confirm this because, you know, we had both Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly on together.
And because we created remember we had we created. Well, the photo photo of me with the sweaters. And the idea was like they would consider doing a sequel. And I'd be like, well, here's an idea for you.
And it would be me in the sweater with them. And it didn't really work out that well, because it's not happening. Is there any possibility that we see a Step Brothers sequel? I mean, we haven't never talked about this face to face in public. No, we haven't.
Let's let's break some crap here. Are we going to do Step Brothers, too? I don't think so. Yeah, I don't think that's what I thought. Yeah.
Now we can both say definitively doesn't look like it's going to happen. Yeah, I don't think so. You know, it just popped into my head. Yeah. E.T.
Oh, that's you've got Drew Barrymore, grown up girl. OK. And how long is it going? Keep going. Now what?
Now what? Now E.T. because he teeters. He's not going to get old. He finds his way back to Earth and to save us, please. Something brings his kid.
He says he is a male, something with Drew Barrymore. E.T. baby, baby Yoda worked, right?
I love baby Yoda. So baby E.T. comes to Earth and then give you our our E.T.
has to come to Earth and find them. And all we was around Drew Barrymore. Yeah. You know, I've said her name twice. There's a reason for that. But yeah. And then I sends him home. See, did I just say that?
What fiction sequel I would love that. Yeah. Yeah.
That's another. Oh, my God. Who?
Who? Jules. Yeah. Walk the Earth now.
He was just going to go walk the Earth. Yeah. OK, OK. And now he's done it and we find it what he learned along the way. Keep going. What what happens?
And then Marcellus actually runs into him in like, I don't know, Tuscany or something. Yeah. Bruce Willis is not doing well.
So I know that. So, you know, he told him to leave town and had his L.A. is still with us, obviously. Who else can we bring back? Christopher Walken with another speech about the watch. This watch. I tell you one more.
Get one more speech about the watch. I feel like there's something there. I don't know. Yeah. Tarantino doing he has I'll do any of them. Yeah. I was just running through which Tarantino movie would make the coolest. Aren't you doing a sequel to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood based off of Brad Pitt's character?
I think it's not technically a sequel, but it's a it's more off of Cliff's character. Yeah. Yeah. So it's still like. Yeah. It's still the same world. So it's an offshoot. Yeah.
It's still it's still the world, but not a sequel. All right. Right. A two segment call us. Right. You got an idea. Well, let's take a break. Eight four four two or four rich number two. Don, we come back.
What's more likely? And boy, we have got a ton of people who want to do the win loss game. It's popular.
Yeah. That's the sequel right there. Let's talk about coffee, people.

Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills, but it turns out that's very illegal.
So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch. Upfront payment of $45 for three month plan equivalent to $15 per month required. New customer offer for first three months only. Speed slow after 35 gigabytes of network's busy. Taxes and fees extra.
See mintmobile.com. All right, back here on the program. What are we doing here right now? Oh yeah, there's a new bobblehead night in Yankee Stadium. Do you see this? I did see this.
It's Seinfeld night and the bobblehead is Costanza sleeping underneath his desk. That is a little case of male curiosity. There you go. Amazing. It's the socks. Wow.
Against the socks as if there's not going to already be a packed house for that. That's so cool. I love a good nap. Sometimes it's the only thing that gets me out of bed in the morning is what's on the bobblehead under the desk. So what is the bobble part?
Will his head bobble on the pillow? Is that what it is? Oh yeah, maybe. Yeah, that might be right.
I think it's that. Man, we should go back and get one of those. I want one. By the way, the night I went with Coop, it was Aaron Judge Superman night. Oh, you're thinking about capes or something? No, it was a bobblehead with him going like this. Did you get it? No. No. It's only the first 10,000 fans. 10,000? That's it?
Something like that. Or 15,000 when I got there. Oh my gosh. And you know what pissed me off? Here's what pissed me off. I saw adults walking around with like six of them.
Oh you see, that's wrong. And it's just like, listen, you have kids just as I do. Here's my kid.
Here's a 14 year old right here. And you're walking around with like, I saw bags, like they were walking around with bags. They had like six of them.
But they're selling those on eBay. Cooper was like, I would have said something to somebody. He's like this, because again, it was his first night at Yankee Stadium. Took the D train to there and back. And as we're getting our way to get to the D train, he, we passed by a guy saying, buying bobbleheads, 60 bucks a pop. Yeah, he's going to make like 60 bucks. Who wants to sell me their bobbleheads for 60 bucks a pop?
He'll sell them for a hundred. Yeah. Yeah. See, I would have said he's just like dad. I'm like, well, we don't have a bobblehead.
And by the way, we wouldn't have sold it. And what's the matter with all these adults walking around with six? Yeah, that's yeah. The hell? It's like you're stealing baseballs from children. So I'm a Dodger fan now. See this guy over there.
It doesn't happen here. Chris, you choose, you choose. How about the big Lebowski for a sequel? Um, okay. The dude, what's going on with the dude abiding.
What's up with the dude? Um, you choose, you go for it. What one haven't we done in a while? We haven't done line three.
That hasn't happened. We haven't done the line three. Okay, let's do it. John and South Carolina, you're on the rich has it show. What's up, John? I guess I chose.
Now we'll get to the teams. That's all. Yep. John, you're there. He's up. What's going on?
John and South Carolina. Um, not much, not much there. Um, I was just thinking out, I'm a mechanic, but you are a professional and I kind of wanted you to win a loss on the Colts here. You want to do it for you to do it because I'm like, if you want, if you want a carburetor fixed on your guy. Okay.
But if I want to, if I want the best sports take on the dang planet, I need to talk to rich eyes. See now, John, I appreciate you buttering me up like that, but that's not what this is. I want to hear John the carburetor fixer of South Carolina. You want the fan? Yes. What do you think, John? What do you think? Okay.
You're never going to get any Richardson is going to take the starting job and I'll go ahead and do it. If you spirit now you got the music and I guess what the oil is flowing. Do we say that? I don't know. All right, here we go. Thank you, John.
In South Carolina. What happens when the Colts welcome the dolphins into their house? Week one. We always lose week one games. We've never won one in like eight years, so I'm going to go ahead and say that's a loss.
No, we should win it. Okay. Home for the Broncos then we'll take that one.
All right. Three and one at the top. One in one, pardon me at the Titans.
Yes, sir. Lose that one. One and two at the Rams. Lose that one. One and three home for the Raiders. Take that one. Two and three home for the Cardinals. Take that one. All right, here we go.
At the chargers now. I don't like our odds on that. I'm not, I don't think we win that.
All right. Three and four home for the Titans. I think we take it because we're, we usually be the Titans at home. Four and four at the Steelers. Aaron Rogers, man.
That's hard. I don't think we win that one. Four and five against the Falcons in Berlin, Germany.
I hate the Falcons so dang much. I can't say we lose it. So we win that one.
Okay. One, two, three, four. You're five and five off the bye. We can make a playoff run here at the chiefs.
I think we won that one because I really, I don't know when the last time we lost to the chiefs was, but it was a long time ago. Six and five home for the Texans home for the Texans. We'll take that seven and five at the Jaguars at Jaguars. We haven't beaten Jacksonville in eight years at their house. So seven and six at the Seahawks at the Seahawks. I think we lose that one too, buddy.
All right. Now you're home for the 49ers. I want to say we win it, man.
I really do, but I can't three losses in a row. You're now seven and eight home for the Jaguars. We'll take the Jaguars and eight and eight at the Texans. I don't think we take that one either.
All right. Eight and nine, John and South Carolina. John, I don't think you embarrass yourself at all. And I think you actually did a credible job. I think that the, if you want my opinion here, I think the Colts will be anywhere between seven and 10 and 10 and seven. And you hit, you hit one of the sweet spots there in eight and nine. But I think four losses in the last five games would certainly give us an indication. And thanks for the call, John and the compliment.
I appreciate what you said. That's John at South Carolina. As you know, I've kept saying about the Colts. The patience or mindset, how to run the team from Jim Irsay's kids. We have no idea.
That is a massive blank slate. None, none. How involved will they be? How, how, how much will they put a thumb on the scale? How much pressure will they put on the coaching staff and the front office? What will they do? The patience level of the new management now that Jim Irsay has passed, that is a big blank slate.
I have no idea. We would get a sense of what it is if they lose four of their last five to finish eight and nine, right? I don't know about losing a week one against the dolphins. We will see Jim Irsay's going into the ring of honor. That is going to be a highly emotional contest. Obviously lots on the line for the dolphins this year as well. And how about this? They have two trips to Los Angeles for, you know, in four weeks, but they have two home dates in between.
They can't stay out here. And Los Angeles was a spot that Jim Irsay hung out in quite a bit. I remember we would see him, you know, Susie and I would walk out and there's Jim Irsay.
He was around Los Angeles quite a bit. At any rate, two cents on the Colts. It's a Friday, which means it's a what's more likely Friday. Let's hit it. What? What's more likely?
Never say never, but never. All right, Christopher Brockman, you have the floor, everybody. Happy Friday.
What up? You guys are doing a rich this week. Aaron Rodgers was on Pat McAfee and said it's more more likely than his last year. He says it feels like this is it right.
Like this is pretty much feels like. Is it more likely you believe this year's Aaron Rodgers last or you think he plays again in twenty twenty six? I do believe him when he says this feels like it's a just did a one year deal. I do believe him when he says that. But do you think he plays again in twenty twenty six?
I don't know. Let's see what let's see how the season goes. He gets through it healthy and they look terrific and they go deep into the playoffs and he feels like it's unfinished business and they want him to come back and they look at the they look at the draft and feel like we've got a team that doesn't need to be supplemented by a high, highly picked quarterback by let's just say they may feel like it doesn't need to be supplemented by a a kid that that can be plugged in and played right now. And you can choose the quarterback of the future.
And Rodgers isn't clearly phased by that because he knows this is the drill. He could still I mean, I just painted you a scenario in which he would come back right this personal life. His new his new bride doesn't have an issue with this sort of thing, whoever that may be. We don't know. We have no idea what his personal life is going to look like. If it all aligns, maybe it works.
I don't know. But this does when he when he told Pat that I totally believe it. So it's more likely than not. This is his last year. But we'll see how the season goes. Obviously, it's his life.
He reserves the right to take that finger off the chess piece and say, I'm playing still. So what else you got? We saw these two guys at Fanatics Fest over the weekend. And regardless of whose turn it is, which young stud quarterback were you more likely to give the bigger contract to CJ Stroud or Jayden Daniels? A bigger contract.
What does that mean? Who gets the bigger deal? Who would you give more money to to play quarterback for your team? They're both up at the same time. Yeah, they're both up. They're not in real life.
But what's in this scenario? Let's say yes, they're both up at the same time. I would give it to Jayden Daniels.
Any particular reason? Well, Stroud had that rookie season that everyone said was a unicorn and Jayden Daniels topped it. He topped it. He went to the NFC Championship game. He had a chance to be the first rookie to be in the Super Bowl. He totally turned that franchise upside down.
It was sinking down to the bottom of the sea floor. And now it is a Super Bowl contender coming into this season. Obviously, we need to see what year two looks like.
And I know Stroud, I think what he's dealing with is unfair that he regressed in year two. Dude made it to the second round of the playoffs. Won a playoff game again.
Right? Two straight years. He took his team. They won a division, took his team to the playoffs, won a playoff game, won more games, actually, in his second year. So lost a key wide receiver. That is right.
And the offensive line wasn't as good in front of him as it was in year one, too. So. But you asked me this question.
I did. Would be what I give you pay. I obviously Jayden Daniels would be my choice. He had a better rookie season. Let's see what happens in year two for him.
And obviously, you're three for Stroud. This is nothing personal. I saw what he was like with your son.
I think it's outstanding. C.J. Stroud with your kid.
I have no preference either. I was just what's more likely C.J. Stroud hanging with your kid or Jayden Daniels hanging out with the child of agents of the stars, Jerry Silverwood.
That's true. Jerry Silverwood, you know. Yeah. Yeah. Judge, Judge Silverwood's and Cage Brockman had something in common. I hung out with both and both members of what's more likely that is the intro.
OK, very good. Coop's already doing fantasy drafts. Rich, who are you more likely to select first overall in your fantasy league? Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, Bijan Robinson, Saquon, Saquon, Saquon, T.J. T.J., who are you taking first overall? T.J.? Probably Saquon.
Because he's not going to repeat last year. Just only going to go down. It's only going to go down. You don't know that. But like I do know Jefferson or it's tough to pass them up. I'm not sure if I'm on the Bijan.
OK, I don't know. Number one, we want our fantasy with Jayden Daniels and Saquon. And you're like, really, Jayden Daniels? They're not going to do it again. OK, they're not going to do it again. How many fantasy just looking back to last year.
You don't know that. The fantasy concept involving Saquon at this point last year. OK, for all of these guys at this point last year. OK, it was Jamar Chase is having a contract hold out and he's questionable going into week one. If you drafted late, you're like, I'm not touching.
Yeah, I don't want to. Justin Jefferson had Sam Darnold. Right. And you're just like, OK, what's he going to look like? Right. And then Bijan Robinson is just like, well, Arthur Smith is gone, so they're going to use the hell out of him.
Right. So let me think about him and Saquon. The idea again, don't forget, going into last year's first round of your fantasy football draft, it was like he was a giant.
Who knows what the hell is going to happen in Philadelphia? He'll be better. But is he really going to be that much better? Because how often does that stuff work out? He was available, I think. And I'll say it.
What do I care? I don't know if this is accurate or not. One hundred percent of leagues after pick seven, pick eight. We got him at the end of the first round. And you did two and only I got him on the turn around.
I remember I back essentially back to about 12 and 13. And you were trying to like to tell you guys were going me like you won't take because I wanted him back. You guys didn't want me to take an eagle.
That's what it was. You're going to take two thousand yards again. I am not stuttering. I mean, even if he has eighteen hundred, that's exactly if he just comes close. Sixteen, sixteen hundred, fifteen, talking horseshoes and hand grenades.
I'm taking him first. Oh, hundred. Good. I didn't need you yelling at me when I was trying to make my decision. I never yell at you.
It was pressure ever. Bitch doesn't yell. You just look at me disappointedly and that hurts sometimes more than getting. No, I'm not disappointed. I'm disapproving. It's a proof.
I get that a lot. It's an NBA stuff here, guys. These guys had the first two picks in the draft. Who's more likely to make the playoffs next year? Mavs or Spurs? Oh, why not both?
Yeah, because that's not how the game works out of the game. But they both they both missed it. Who's getting in? Come on, man. I can't use both. You know, both are making it.
I you know, I don't know that. I'll take I'll take the Spurs then. All I know is I saw the Spurs. One is more likely inches tall. I will take this person is more likely.
I will take the Spurs then because Kyrie, who knows when he's coming back. Right. Cooper flags. Still just a rookie.
I just called him just a rookie for me. I'm creating my narrative to make it to give. I'm giving you what you want. I'm creating a narrative to carp on one of these teams.
Thank you. Jason Kidd's going to be coaching the Knicks. What else am I going? What else you need from me? I know the Knicks are going to say one more time. Will you check this box? Will you check this box one more time? OK, I take the Spurs.
I think the Spurs. All right. All right.
Like I said, I saw Wimby. He's eight foot three inches tall and he's doing all the monk stuff like great. He's locked in. He is locked in. He's locked in. Guys, is it more likely the Thunder repeat as champions or we get an eight straight new champ, eight straight new champ want to call your shot as to who it is? You're in advance.
Oh, yeah, absolutely. It'll be Giannis and Brunson and Jason. This guy on the box, huh?
On the box. Giannis Brunson and Jason Kidd and the Canyon of Heroes. I'll make it. If you if you ask me to, I did call my shot. I want you to call your shot. I want you to call your shot. Paint a picture. Give me a shot.
That would be great if this actually happened. All right. You know that, wouldn't you? Last one.
Yes, I would love that. Can confirm the superstar pitcher more likely to finish the year with more wins. Check up the ground. Paul Skeans or Shohei Ohtani.
Skeans is four and seven. I know they should just trade him to the bench. Four wins. Crazy. So sad for the second half of the year.
Oh, great question. I'll go Skeans. What is Ohtani going to actually pitch more than I don't know. Yeah, I mean, they've got to imagine this is just a ramp up. Ohtani is going to have to go five. And so when we're just still ramping up, right?
Yeah. We're ramping. Let's get this guy some runs, man. For the sake of Livy Dunn, for crying out loud.
Do it for Livy. We're the last time the center fielder had an error that gave up dude and my fans. I know it is frustrating. Oh, sure. Oh, wow. I did not know. You have one more.
I just that is one of my favorite drops ever, obviously, because it's my son, your favorite. But when we're just said, listen, when Chris asks about one more, he kind of looks around. I do not have that. He verbally did it. One more. I did not. I did not verbalize my shot. Guys, what's more likely to happen first?
The Knicks hire a head coach or Del Tufo works another three day week. Oh, great question. This is actually a really cool one. Kanye West videos. I have like I have like I'm just going to ask you a question. I haven't for me. No, I'm I'm about to ask you, are you going to do you have a three? It's only four shows next week because we're not doing July 4th. All right. So hang on. So how many shows you got next week? Hang on. It's got a lot on your hands.
What are your eyes? I see. Here it comes. I see a week off.
There might be two next week. So you don't have a three. It's not a three.
It's not a three day. So it's the Knicks head coach. You think you're going to get a head coach? You got to get a head coach before it's been a month. Chris, the Knicks have to get a new head coach before the new year starts.
It's usually an assistant. Get out of here. Knicks need a new coach before Del Tufo coaches. I'm not saying that the new head coach is going to be out there in the summer league, but the new head coaches has to be active when the, when the, when the organization is playing some games, get out of here, man. I don't know if you guys don't have a coach.
You guys got a big problem. Next week. We have four days.
Yep. The week after that is our annual dark week. You're saying that Del Tufo's next three day work week potentially is deep into July. You think the Knicks are going to go deep into July with a get out of here. He'll be here five days.
Why did they find the dude that almost made the finals? You guys don't have a dark week.

For those who don't know what we're referring to, previously on the Rich Eyes and Show, Mike Del Tufo posted out of nowhere. Chris, I think you saw this first and texted it to the group of what's going on here.
Adam didn't send it to me. I asked AI to make a business photo of me. Would you hire me?
I look like I'm closing the deal on your next Mercedes Benz. There you are. I don't know why it popped in your head, why AI decided to make you on a casual front or something. And so we then tasked you to make AI photos of us as business people, right?
Yes. And even though that was tasked of you on Wednesday's show, when Suzy was here, you said you had trouble... Took me a minute. You had trouble doing it. His artificial intelligence met natural intelligence.
And my natural intelligence is very low, so that's exactly it. There you go. We'll let you have it. Whoa.
The AI took over. Your mission is now complete. Yes. Who do we have first?
Me first? All right, there you go. Oh my gosh. That's me. That's Sean Connery? I don't know.
What the hell is that? We named the dog in here, I know. What is the prompt here? So, Smitch asked me to add a little flavor to this and say, Rich as businessman, Daddy Warbucks. And that's what came out.
All right. So that's where that actually came from. Honestly, that doesn't look like me at all. Bond, right? I mean, kind of. James Bond.
Yeah. Does it? If your beard got a little darker.
I mean, yeah, it looks a little... I look like Sir Davos, if Sir Davos was a businessman. Sir Davos. Oh, another one of you? Yes.
You made me two? This was you on a boat? The captain of the ship.
Yes. In the classical sense of the boat. What is this, a businessman fellow? What the hell is this? Are you on my yacht here?
Brockman's great. My arch yacht. What is this?
What the hell is this? All right. Now, here you are. You've got Brockman next. Yes. All right.
I did a couple of Brockman. You were easy because your picture was good. Then I got a better picture. Okay.
From Smitch. Let's see what we got here. Brockman is a businessman.
Is that what's going on here? All right. There you go. Brockman is sleeves up. That came like that. I did not ask for that.
Okay. Brockman's sleeves. Did you put casual Friday? Is that what it is? Or they just... I don't know. No, you just...
I don't know why they put the sleeves up. And of course, for you, you said there's one more. Yes. I did not know that.
I had no idea. Oh, wow. Yeah, as a Chiefs fan.
Now, there you go. You made me a Chiefs fan? Yeah.
I mean, because you love the Chiefs so much. Why do you make you look a little pouchy? I know. By the way, this is a Soto treat. By the way, as it made me skinny. That's not cool at all.
And I didn't know you went on that watermelon. Wow. No. Wow. By the way, I added Soto when it came up like that. Wow. I added the Soto felt. TJ is a businessman.
I can imagine what this craft's going to look like. TJ, let's see what TJ... We've got TJ, ladies and gentlemen. TJ. There you go. Okay. What is this? This is like a normal picture. It's how it looked like going to the Emmys. I don't know.
It's pretty sharp. I like that, TJ. I do like that, TJ.
I had a great scene at the Emmys. This one for TJ. Wow. Hell yeah. Look at that. Fire that person.
Wow. Who would do that? You got Susie? Do we have Susie? I did one for her. The Susie finale?
The big finish here? Yeah. She might be sitting at home wondering why she... Susie's like, oh, I asked Mike for this. Uh-oh.
Susie is... Okay. Okay. What is with the watercolor? I don't know what that is. The painting.
You just add in things and it just throws it out there. Okay. Okay. Mike, I don't think this is your own.
I don't think she'll have a problem with that one. You don't think I did this? I don't think so. You think you did it? I think you did it. I think I did it. Oh, I got it. There you go. Yeah.
That looks like a real photo that she's taken. We got Felly. Felly?
Adam Nowhere? I do believe you did it. Uh-oh. We got Felly as well?
