Disappointing, it just wasn't clean enough, wasn't crisp enough, and we paid for it. The Rich Eisen Show. Earlier on the show Pro Football Hall of Famer Demarcus Ware. ESPN radio host Chris Canty. Coming up, actor Keegan-Michael Key.
Plus your phone calls, latest news, and more. And now it's Rich Eisen. All right, coming up. Hour number three.
It has arrived. Keegan-Michael Key's in our green room. He's coming out and it's just gonna be great because it always is.
It always is. And one of my favorite people that I've gotten a chance to meet and befriend throughout my time here on the show and also the NFL. Host of NFL Honors, diehard fan of the National Football League, Penn State football. Just as hilarious as they come. Transformers 1 is the new film that he is lending his voice to. The origin story of Transformers, which again more than meets the eye. Can't wait for this movie. It's good.
I've seen it. Oh man, Cage and I have been to a couple movies recently and it's been one of the previews before and he's so jacked. How old is he?
Four and a half. How is he in the movie theater? He can now sit and stay. No doubt. As long as he has like the time of his life where he just gets up and down whenever it's over. As long as he has gummy bears and some popcorn and ice, he's good to go. I'm the same. My God.
That's a lot of sugar right there. We're good? He's my only kid. What am I supposed to do?
Not give him what he wants? Those days will come too. I just love watching you evolve. I did love watching you evolve.
Thank you. And the latest example of you're going to grow tired of your fantasy draft. That just shows you that you're grown up. You're grown stuff and you're grown stuff.
I don't know how much more I could say about that anymore. Oh really? Because every time I speak the tensions get hotter. With your friends? Yeah.
Well put a clock on it. Well it's pretty much Rich's fault. Like he's the one who's stirring the drama. No it's not. You are a little bit. Come on.
How dare you? I'm just saying. He's in a fantasy draft where they go to the home of the Super Bowl champs. They fly to it. So they don't know wherever they're going to go year to year. Maybe they just assume they're going to Kansas City now. But they go to the home of the defending Super Bowl champs and hold a draft in a hotel room or in somebody's house now. And there's no clock.
And there's no clock. But now he has a child. And so back in the day when I heard about it I'm like what an outrage. And he's just like you don't get it. And I'm like well one day you're going to get it.
And now he's gotten it. And I'm like it's you're all grown stuff. That's all I'm saying.
That's the latest example of it. I have nothing else to add. You're going to sit here and say you don't stir it up a little bit. And I'm about to get off the subject. In the same way that I told him one day your kid or you will have a kid and one day your kid will get you to think maybe you shouldn't get on a plane and what are you getting on a plane for? You go back and forth about all of that.
And do I really want to do it? And then that is now again what I'm saying to you about you know someday you're gonna have to tell your kid no. And it's gonna be you know the icy. No icy. You know?
But I like the icy too. That's okay. I didn't see that one coming. I don't care though.
Dad no. I say no more than most. I'm sure. I'm sure. I'm not denigrating your parenting of you or Sarah. I've seen you in action.
I've seen you guys in action. You understand it's all said with love and it's not a bit. Okay.
All right. Jim in Jamestown, New York. What's up Jim? Hey Rich. Guys how are you today? Jim. What's up Jim? Hey I just wanted to call out a comment about what Mr. Campy said about Jerry Jones.
Okay. I've been a Cowboys fan. I was born in 59. So I've been a Cowboys fan since the Cowboys have been Cowboys. Yeah you were born a year before the Cowboys huh? That's right. Okay. That's right. And I was 10 years old when I watched the Jets beat the Colts.
So I got to see that actually. Okay. I agree with him 100% that Jerry Jones is the reason that the Cowboys haven't been to the championship game in 28 years. Matter of fact if Jerry Jones hadn't made the biggest bonehead thing he's ever done and got rid of Jimmy Johnson the Cowboys probably would have won three or four in a row back in the 90s.
I hear you. So you agree with what Chris Canty said which is that Jerry creates such an angst-filled environment. A cauldron is what he said is that it just slowly defrays the players energies to the point where they run out of it when it comes time to win or go home. Oh 100% and I'm really shocked that there hasn't been players that have come out and said that and you know until now because it's been pretty obvious over the years. I mean we had we had great teams. We've had great coaches. You know Bill Parcells was there for a while. We had Tony Romo and the team they went 12 and 4 a couple years and whatever but it couldn't seem to get over the hump and I think it's Jerry Jones all the crazy stuff that he does and like you brought up why would you pay CD back in the spring when it was cheap same thing with that why would you pay it then why wait until the last minute made absolutely no sense and I think he's the main problem.
Jim thanks for the call appreciate it keep listening keep watching however you take in this program greatly appreciate it and it's also refreshing to talk to somebody who doesn't matter talking about what he remembers as a kid because it shows his age. We didn't see that one coming did we? No we didn't.
Ray Charles saw that coming. 1959 that's no problem. I remember Super Bowl 3 he says by the way same age that TJ would have been when MTV started.
Yeah like around 11. We should have two callbacks so you can describe to you what it was like to see your team actually win something. I know that's all right I kind of got enough from Jim that I needed. He doesn't know what he's talking about. Jerry Jones drops. No that was that was Bruce Arians. That was no no that's Jones at least no no no no according to Del Tufa that's Bruce Arians.
He doesn't know what he's talking about. Yeah no that's Jerry that's Jerry that's Jerry yeah you can hear the twang. Bruce Arians has a little bit of that too. That is Bruce Arians. One more time. What are you smoking bro give me something. Okay that's Bruce.
Yeah keep going. He doesn't know what he's talking about. That's Jerry. I don't think that's Jerry.
No it's definitely Jerry. There is less pie. Oh I mean there you go. Okay he don't know what he's talking about.
So let's go here because we got some bulletin board material that's just been thrown out there. Gotta love it. Now listen we've seen Xavier Worthy's first performance right? Ran one in caught one two three touches two touchdowns and and and and as we were saying you know on the show no surprise that the Kansas City Chiefs know how to handle the fastest man in the history of the combine right. Just one game in two touchdowns in anybody you'd snake them probably what in round 10 of their fantasy draft they're feeling like they're GMs of the year right.
They're feeling like Brett Veitch right. And you know all those memes that came out of Bills fans because don't forget every single touchdown Xavier Worthy scores it's because the Chiefs traded up to go get them and the Bills were the ones willingly swapping spots to do it. The Bills need to stop trading with the Chiefs right.
Listen come on man. Hey Holmes and Xavier Worthy. Now you but you don't know like the Bills whatever the draft choice they got from the Chiefs nobody's paying attention to that right. Yeah but I know it's not Patrick Mahomes and it's not Xavier Worthy. Okay so listen we see what we just so he he looks like a chief right he scores like a chief and he's fast like a chief. Question is does he have the red ass chip on shoulder like a chief?
For instance Patrick Mahomes in this summer right we got that drop J right when it's all business with the with the Muppet. He'll get handled when it gets handled. Right like that that's the what the the 2024 Chiefs mantra right.
Pretty much. Don't you think one more time hit it one more time. He'll get handled when it gets handled. All right the 3P yeah it'll get handled when it gets handled like we're not talking about it but we're handling it and it will okay and it will get handled yeah and that sound bite about it'll get handled when it gets handled the first time we see that is when the Kansas City Chiefs visit Las Vegas in week eight. Oh what a what a week that is we already talked about week eight before that's that's the Sunday nighter between the 49ers and the Cowboys. Oh baby. Oh that's gonna be there's gonna be a lot going on that week. Don't call me that yet. Oh by the way by the way yeah man that's that's week eight.
So angry in a room. Does Xavier Worthy have that in him too? Because Cameron Taylor Britt a third-year corner out of out of defensive back out of Nebraska.
He was asked about Xavier Worthy and I guess what he's seen on film or how they're going to handle him. This is a rookie. Okay. I know Taylor Britt's new to the league relatively but he's been in the league now there's a third season.
Okay. He's been asked about a rookie after just one game. This is what Cam Taylor Britt had to say. You can run straight run jet sweeps and just run straight. You can't do too much else so that's about it. I feel like you put your hands on him he's only 100 some pounds so if you put hands on you'll stop the speed so basically get hands on him.
He should have just passed on that. You know what here's the thing here's the thing because here's the thing because in the media we obviously play this stuff up because quite frankly I'll always shoot you straight. We're bored between games just like you are. We're just fortunate enough to have a three-hour window in which to pass the boredom together and hopefully help you pass the boredom until there's another kickoff right like that's the way it works. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday morning is long. Yeah I know.
It's a long time. I mean what are you supposed to do talk to each other? I don't want to do that. Read a book?
What's that? Listen and so we play this stuff up and I don't want to criticize him. Thank you for the soundbite is basically what I'm saying. Yes 100%. And we'll see how we'll see what Xavier Worthy does with this.
He's gonna have three touchdowns. But here's the key thing do me a favor play that soundbite one more time and see if you catch the very important conditional phrase when it comes to defending Xavier Worthy. See if you catch the conditional phrase. Hit it. You can run straight run jet sweeps and just run straight.
You can't do too much else so that's about it. I feel like you put your hands on him. He's only 100 some pounds so if you put your hands on him you'll stop the speed. So basically get your hands on him. If you put your hands on him. If. If you put your hands on him. That's a big if. Yeah 4-2 you can't really get your hands on him.
That's if. If you put your hands on him. Jam him at the line.
And it's well well well hold on. That's what Reed is is the master at. A lot of scheming.
Well scheming to make sure you can't put your hands on. They know he is what a a buck 70 soaking wet buck 80. On his good days.
So what does that mean? On his bad days he's lighter? Says he's 165. Yeah I mean that's like that's like when you're a kid you're like oh I gotta make me look a little bit bigger on the roster. Oh I just I just you know I'm I'm putting myself into his shoes unfortunately where like today I felt woken up I felt like skinny waking up today. Well at our age. I felt good like I like the belt fit the pants fit yeah shirt fit.
I'll use all of us at all of our ages. Yeah the skinny days are the good days. Yeah they are.
When you're in your 20s. Yeah. You want to be more.
I got it. You want to feel beefier. Some days I'll come in I'm like you know what I feel I feel I feel puffy.
Oh yeah puffy no good. Listen if you put your hands on them it's up to Andy Reid to make sure he schemes them. Oh baby I didn't put the Bengals on the have to have it list. I just didn't because they're used to start knowing too and having no big deal. Joe Burrow six nine and one in September in his career.
They always start badly in September. Did you see the like somebody caught video he picked up a water bottle looking weird. I gotta say I analyzed all of that. And and so it looks like maybe his wrist is not healed because the way he picked up the water bottle and somebody asked him that and he's just like was like. And during the games he was kind of doing this a lot he was really kind of flexing it. It could just be like you know it's his new it's his new wrist in the same way when I first got married I kept on you know banging the ring on stuff. Right right. You like that right now Jay?
No it's uh give me a rash. Wow got a rubber one on. Just everyone understand he's talking about a ring so he understands on his finger. All right everyone understands what we're talking about here and the fact that he came in one day oh by the way he got married this weekend. He just like totally dropped it on us. Great.
Cool that would have been fun to go to. That's great. So yeah that may be it he's his new wrist he's just you know playing playing with it moving around. I think they're asking him asking him like I think he was he was more phased about that than being handed a jacket with a hole in it by uh Prada. By Prada yeah in Paris. Yeah yeah. You know. Just playing I gotta see that again. There it is a nice call like he looks less phased here than when he was asked about the way he picked up the water bottle. By the way the man on to his left Justin Jefferson all he's got to do is get 45 yards this weekend and you get 6,000 yards in his career tying Lance Allworth for the fastest to ever get to 6,000 yards that's Justin Jefferson. So there you go Keegan-Michael Key let's bring him out let's have some fun Transformers 1 in theaters near you a week from Friday let's see a clip let's hang out and I believe we've got a clipboard for Mr. Garvey to go through an NFL roll call that's next this is the Rich Eisen Show.

friend from high school back in detroit told me that bill lambier was a sleestack i never i never knew as i was a kid that i was being uh trained to hate bill lambier before knowing bill lambier it was so easy to start hating that he was already a a bad guy he was already a bad guy in a latex suit before he was a bad guy in short shorts he's always been a bad guy those shorts are those shorts were too short they were too short too restricting those shorts i don't understand how isaiah thomas could make the moves that he made on the court with those shorts restricting they were restricting that's the term 48 minutes with a wedgie that's true yeah exactly i mean it really was 30 for 30 on those shorts i think 48 minutes of the wedgie one of my favorite 30 for 30 because there's a lot of numbers in the title 30 for 30 48 minutes with a wedgie oh my god so were you a pistons guy too growing up the bad boys all the bad boys i was um i remember being in my friends she uh audie she had like a like a little like a little 1983 yeah audie i don't know what number it was and that and that we opened up the the sunroof and i stuck out of the corner it's just like whoo in 89 in 89 when they won the the first championship so everybody and you know who was great on those teams chuck daley was such a great coach yes people forget about rodman oh god about the worm playing in detroit and he was so centered and focused it was before he was kind of expressing himself in new and different ways and um but that lineup lambir and dumars vinnie johnson was coming off the bench with mohorn we had a great player it was a great guy came off the bench named fennis dembo by the way a great wyoming player a wyoming product he was great in in uh in college uh your buddha edwards also is on that edwards edwards was on that team that's right john sally the spider that's right oh my god and you know what you know what uh kids today will not uh get to appreciate like like we were able to with chuck daley is now yeah i think you know where i'm going with this now guys coaches show up like they're wearing their gear for practice chuck daley showed up in like a like a one talk restricting i mean he was like double-breasted double-breasted like he was showing up man oh absolutely always yeah i mean and it's funny because you think about other i think of other great pistons coaches yes i don't know that he started the trend but even larry brown wouldn't always wear a suit that's right which was interesting and he would dress now but chuck daley dapper yes dapper looks like he was going to defend a rico case that's how he was showing up for work i've got the file right here you know michael key here did you play with transformers as a kid i did i i uh it's it's funny i watched used to watch those commercials i wanted all of them yes really badly my favorite transformer yes was soundwave do you remember this this transformer was interesting because he didn't turn into a vehicle he didn't turn to a truck or a tractor or a semi or a sports car he turned into a boom box which i was like so what is his weapon just volume is that anyway came with a cassette that turned into like a little mini mini cards yeah so it would that was my favorite i was you get more bots per price so you'd open up his little cassette shoot and he had a little cassette would come out and it would transform into one of them was a bird and the other one that i remember is a dog and he was great and he was the only transformer with the cool robot voice he had a robot voice all the rest of them had regular voices so i he was my favorite somebody i wanted him so i never got him but i wanted him so badly i would think your favorite transformer was the one who transformed into a first ballot detroit lion hall of fame receiver you'd think you'd think you'd think don't you think you'd think you but but back then remember i'm gonna do it now i'm gonna do it again i think i think i was playing with transformers before mr johnson was born is that possible was calvin johnson alive was when tron was megatron alive when transformers was on tv he's a christmas no no megatron born in 1985 so it'd be like and the first season of transformers was 1984 so we missed it by that much a little more than meets the eye more than meets the eye ladies and gentlemen transformers robots more than meets the eye my favorite part is the brit the autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the decepticons transformers transformers the best robots in disguise and then the best thing at the end of the theme song it goes transformers that really aggressive trombone do you think there was a meeting where something where they're going back and forth do we do that and somebody's like pounding the table we must do that we have to end with an aggressive trombone line we can't go transformers down no no we gotta go transformers hasbro moved in across the way here oh did they really let's go find out yeah we could go ask hasbro were you pro trombone or were you pro or were you pro rat-a-tat-tat were you pro rat-a-tat-tat trumpet dude you were going cornet sting or trombone aggressive trombone slide it says everything about you which side you're on how you want it how did you want to end the transformers themes wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the decepticons great line oh my god yeah again it's in fear new you fraudy we need more trombone right we need way more trombone that's right like the first the first iteration of it it's not enough i need more i need more guys we need more trombone it's not actually can you get me three trombones i need three i need someone going up third up on the third so i need the fifth not just any trombone i need t-bone not t-bone burnett the optimist prime of trombonists yes oh my god keegan michael key here on the rich isin show i i think i might have sent you this video i i would love for you to react to it here let me take a look here when when the uh the current dream team if you will the men's uh olympics team was uh getting ready to go to paris yes for the olympics yes they were training in las vegas and president obama met with them and basically it was the the key and peel sketch it where he dapped up people of color and just nice hearty standard handshake yes with anybody who is melanin challenged essentially let's let's take a look at let's take a look right here this actually this actually happened all right there he is a big fat dap what up though all right here comes all right here comes lebron lebron another dappitude here he goes big one wrap him up wrap him up here here's mark hello good to see you pleasure absolute pleasure to see you how are you guys doing good to see you guys steve i'll give steve a hug because he spends the most time with people of color steve gets a steve steve gets a hug i love that i want to see the guy next to steve what the hell it was solidified when mark few who who might be what did you say melatonin melanin challenged melanin challenged yeah i mean he basically he almost got the heisman he almost he almost desmond howard at him i mean just waiting with curry and lebron oh my god mark few knows it's coming he's like and he's got to see his arms across but he is on his toes nice to meet you nice to meet you i love these little and then steve gets the hug and mark's like wait a minute wait a minute i'm gonna go over here and talk for a minute uh you guys are gonna be great in pairs um i when we did that sketch yes it was because he had gone i think he was in oklahoma city so the sketch was based on an earlier piece of footage where he uh it was kd he was dapping up kd and i think westbrook was still on that team and then and then shook the coach's hands and so we wanted to just do it at a political rally it was based off of it so this is actually the second time that that's been recorded the first time yeah so what about one about one somebody in our staff showed the video and said we've got to do something on this we're like bro write it up and then um but then the best my favorite part of the sketch is when jordan gets to me and his body man who's standing you know he's obama and the body man sitting next to him and he gets to me and he doesn't know what to do and the body man goes he goes one eighth black and jordan goes to shake man he goes good afternoon my octoroon ridiculous it was so good it was such a good piece of heightening oh my god oh my god yeah it was a great and then that and of course it resurfaced because of the because of what obama did yeah it was great it was but i had no idea the original sketch was based on a similar incident it was based with the oklahoma city thunder with the oklahoma city thunder yep yep oh my god i had no idea about that where did the angry interpreter come from that was from that was from our pilot uh i think we did yeah we did that in the pilot when we were developing the show and trying to figure out things we're like okay we have to do some kind of take on obama frankly because we wouldn't have this job we i don't think we would have gotten the show yeah if obama hadn't been elected the president and had not really i really do i really believe that the way that he captured the american imagination was part of what um pushed us into uh into into that opportunity right so part of it was homage to him part of it was because we admired him part of it was because he was part of the social fabric of our nation we wanted to figure something out and i can't remember what his name was the senator it was because when uh obama was giving the state of the union and he made a comment and member in the chamber somebody went you lie right uh what was that guy's name chris is looking up i can't remember his name which would never have been uttered to any other president and we we know why and i remember obama just went it kind of just made a small gesture just lifted his finger and we both went what a dilemma because as a person of color he cannot if he if he if he retorts aggressively he's an angry black man if he doesn't do anything he's an ineffectual black man so what it ended up being rich a problem solving issue so it was a problem solving how do we solve this problem for the president-elect and jordan was like hey and you could see his eyes lit up and he went remember in snl when um chevy chase would do weekend update and they'd say he'd say and now uh a message uh our next message will be sponsored by the society for the deaf and in the in the small corner there was a picture of garrett morris and he said yelling yelling screaming in um francisco franco is still and he goes is still dead still dead and that's and then and i was like oh yeah yeah yeah and he goes what if what if he had like an anger translator like someone who became we were sitting in jordan's apartment yeah and his little one-bedroom furnished apartment on hollywood avenue hollywood boulevard and i was like that's that's a brilliant idea and that's where it came from it was just us sitting there trying to figure out how do we is there a way we can help the president out of that dilemma yeah yeah and so you're you're the the muse for his anger basically like i'm the id like so he's the super ego who follows the rules and i'm the id and um and then you know the whole thing i'd be being able to do it with him the president how did that come about how did you i was i was out of i was somebody pitched me so one of his writers jordan and i got to meet him uh when he was here doing a fundraising uh uh campaign yeah and we got to meet him and we got to spend like 10 minutes with him it was amazing and then that year later i was i went to the white house for like a christmas party or something happened and one of his junior writers said would you be interested if we if you know if we had time if we could figure it out schedule wise to come and do the white house correspondence dinner and i went oh my god i would love to do it i think it would be amazing and they called my people and we worked it all out and i remember i so i flew to flew to washington dc yes and went to the i went to the i was in the west wing and there was a room set up with a podium and i'm standing there in the room and i'm looking around the room i'm like this where am i this is crazy and he comes in to rehearse with me and he walks in the door he goes there he is okay hey how's it going and he grabs my hand and he hugs me he like runs to me and hugs me and i'm like okay i'm not touching him i'm not attacking him no red dots please he came to me i just got really nervous because he did because i was you know i'm touching him you know and we rehearsed that we rehearsed the piece and i was so nervous that i learned all of my lines and all of his lines just in case he went up because he's got other things on his mind you know what i mean and um he was such a great straight man rich i couldn't believe how great of a straight man he was he completely got the comedy of it understood the bit understood what he was supposed to do he you know like very often an amateur actor when you read a line and then another person's supposed to interrupt you what we try to teach people in acting is that you keep saying something keep talking until the other person don't stop talking don't just say and anyway i thought you don't do that you have to go and anyway i thought if we went and then let let the person interrupt you he knew to do that like intrinsically it was fantastic he was so good he was so good i i it was surreal because i was like a fake character that we had created had come to life you know what i mean like that was literally with him like literally doing it for him it was it was amazing it all started in a west hollywood an apartment in west hollywood on hollywood

that exactly how we want it to play yes i think rj uh five finger discounted this uh clipboard from somebody around these parts right here the gym next door i think is missing a clipboard so what's happening yeah my name jim rj was on a mission i'm like let's just put them on cards he's like no rich wants a clipboard i know i know i mean that's the point is it should be a clipboard just like uh mr garvey had i agree it just took i couldn't believe how long it took the fine one though insubordination and churlish and churlish oh my gosh oh my yeah there's a clipboard right here very good insubordinate and churlish here coach all right um so we got tonight's game right uh an awesome game tonight you know three of the last four matchups between these teams have been over 60 points total why would you know that gee that's odd because you know honestly like i did you notice the stat i gave earlier is that the bills have won 13 of their last 15 trips there okay yeah and he talks about how many points are scored in the game josh allen is six and oh on thursday night i'm just saying if you put my two stats together you could have some fun later because it's six and zero is that what it is you're just like fun with numbers no i mean one is six and oh and the others combined for 60 if you want to take the bills and the oaks and the oaks and bind for 60 and you want to take the bills and the over rich do i need to spell it out for you i don't know what you mean by that i'm saying who is in fact favorite the dolphins and by how many two and a half tonight now when when and i'm serious uh honestly when the line is set like that two and a half means what uh two and a half means what is he telling you it means miami's playing at home and they get a little bit of a home edge but they're basically but not enough to the point where yeah they're even teams i don't know i think this is the dolphin's time dude i think number 17 is a terminator i know i well as you know we've uh i referred to him as the mandalorian yeah yeah he's i went a little bit more current evil superhero you could he is just he's just coming for you and he's ready to just beat the hell out of you and and and you just like can't get him off the field can't get him down on the ground can't get him off the field it doesn't even matter if he he's injured i mean he's got a banged up thumb right now in his left hand and it doesn't even matter he might wear a glove tonight apparently yeah i think it's going to be an issue for gripping when he's running the football and certainly if it's 80 degrees what 80 80 degrees humidity is that what it is yeah 80 degrees humidity tonight also raining it's probably raining right now i'm i'm gonna i'm gonna you know i'm taking yeah it's supposed to pour up until like six o'clock right until about two two hours before yeah i don't know man i'm i'm just gonna back the play of that pissed off all of um my jet fan friends and saying the dolphins are winning the division so they win tonight they can't win the division if they lose a home game to the team that's won the division four straight years so how am i gonna sit here and go well based on what i saw last week the bills did look more impressive at home than the dolphins did and so i'm gonna switch up and go to the bills right now and i said the dolphins are winning the division and by the by winning the division you beat the bills at home that simple yeah and you go to two and oh in five days five days into the season you're you're the first two and oh team i like going based on the last week and Miami just didn't look good against Jacksonville they should have lost that game i mean Travis Antion does a fumble on the goal line they lose and by the way uh the bill season is going to play out right in front of our very eyes four their next five games are nationally televised tonight then they play two monday night games week three home for Jacksonville week six at the jets and then week four sunday night at baltimore that's a really hard schedule the only the only the only game that is not nationally televised is at houston which is kind of big where do you stand on this sheesh i was literally just posting keegan michael kee so i was kind of where do you stand on bills and dolphins tonight bills look at that schedule though man that's what what that guy does that's phenomenal right i know it he's i don't know man and i like him so much because if you remember he remembered how i gave he gave me my first interview for the show so i have a soft spot for Josh Allen when he was coming out of college yeah so you know i you know he didn't know any better he didn't he was just a bright-eyed kid from you know coming out of wyoming i dropped your name so oh well then i like him even more than i ever had that's how i got the interview than i ever have why did i not know that well how else do you think i would have got him i don't know we're walking in you're an enterprising young youngest younger or for his age man yeah we were in the bowels of uh older than that stadium 18 what a fun show guys demarcus where Chris Canty i enjoyed our our first
