Do you ever wonder about dreams or déjà vu? That feeling on a first date? Yes, yes. The spark is real. Maybe about where the aliens are, if they exist.
The universe could be infinite, so where is everybody? My name is Mike Simpson. My podcast is called I've Got Questions. How do some animals change color?
What's the best cure for the hiccups? Do you wash your denim? I usually wait four to six months. Kind of feels like a long time.

He did play for the Saints, Bucks, Giants, and the Patriots. Won a world championship of both the Saints and the Pats and that is Jonathan Casillas kind enough to join us in studio right now on ION Football. Jonathan, how you been my man? I'm good man. How's it going brother?
I'm doing fantastic. So Jonathan congratulations by the way is now a part of the Giants radio network and he's been working since the early part of this morning as the Giants had a little game in London and when that game was at 17 to 3 even at half when it was 20 to 10 I go alright I thought it was over I thought it was done the Giants were gonna come back and win especially with how many guys they were down today just what an unbelievable effort by the Giants. Tremendous you know when you when you look and you see what like what is it what are the Giants made of I think you're gonna look back at this game and be like you remember that Packer game when they went to London and they basically dominated them in the second half if and they gave them the two points at the end of the game if it wasn't for that they outscored them 17 to 0 and they basically took over the game at the end of the game against I think a pretty good Aaron Rodgers led Green Bay Packer team.
What is it about that Giants defense and also that coaching staff I know Dables an offensive guy but he just has so control right now so much control over that locker room where the Giants haven't won a lot of games the last few years and they already have four through the first five weeks of the season. They bought in it looked like the whole roster the coaches the staff like I was in the building the other day everybody looks happy everybody's happier everybody looks younger than they did last year that's what happened when you win games when you win games everything is good and that's what they're doing Dayball came in and I think they have a conduit in Saquon Barkley not only playing but when you come in as a coach and a new staff you want to establish culture first off you need your best players to buy in and then you need your best players to play well and who's playing more who's playing better than Saquon Barkley and then you hear him when he speaks he sounds like a 10 to 12 year veteran the kids amazing he's amazing on the field he's amazing off the field and I think the guys are bought in to not only Dayball's message but to Saquon's energy and passion and what he brings to the table. The Giants being four and one through the first five weeks of the season it's a great story Brian Dayballs looking like the coach of the year how great can this team be this year because the first few weeks we will go all right you expect eventually the other shoe to drop but right now they're rolling. Yeah they are you know the sky is the limit for them this was a huge win because I watched the preview for this game no one picked the Giants to win and even me this morning I went and picked them the other day and today I picked Green Bay I was like back and forth to see because Green Bay is a solid team and honestly the Giants through history we don't really know what they're gonna be you know but now with Dayball at the helm and Shane bringing in his guys and look there's moving pieces going in and out we got guys dropping like flies for the Giants but they got the next man up mentality you got a whole bunch of people that I didn't even know the names of that play very well today. They're moving in the right direction that's the bottom line and the culture has changed for the last few years it's cycling a new head coaches it was very sloppy a once proud organization really lost their way to see how quickly they've turned this culture around it's it's really one of the more impressive things you've seen to the first five weeks of the season. 100% it's needed for Jersey needed it New York the whole tri-state area Giants fans we needed this we needed this because the Jets and the Giants haven't been that good for a long time and we needed somebody from we look I'm a fan now I played it years ago I'm a huge fan of football in New Jersey New York we needed some type of something coming like we've been poor like piss poor and now it's like man everybody's happy now like I'm walking around even here everybody's happy smiling at each other when I walk into the facility everybody's happy and smiling that's what you want man winning cures everything and hopefully this momentum that we have come back from London will help us against the Ravens because they're a tough task no matter what happens tonight you got Lamar Jackson who's one of the best players in the NFL. Jonathan Casillas here with us the Packers have been a team that we know they don't have Devante Adams anymore they went into this game 3-1 they were lucky to win that game last week up against the Pats which is crazy because the Pats were playing with Bailey Zappia quarterback and that game was at Lambeau Field and they just don't look right this year like sure that record says three and two now that they were three and one but this is just a group that an NFC it's not a strong conference this year so can they get it to work yes but they just look lost right now and you saw that in the second half today. I think not having Devante Adams there I think that was clear and evident their first game when they got the break speed off him by the Vikings and then I figure you know you got one of the better players at that position quarterback being Aaron Rodgers figuring it out right who are the guys that I have okay I'm gonna go to my old reliable Randall Cobb he's like 58 years old right I love him he's a little younger than me and he can't I've played against him plenty of times I love that guy I've got to give him some crap but you know the oldest guy in the receiving room I'm gonna go to him I'm gonna see what these young guys have you know Dobbs and Lazard and can they do something for me yeah they can but they're not Devante Adams and they would never be Devante Adams Devante Adams is one of the best players in the league if not the best player at that position when you lose a guy like that everything changes and that's what you're seeing from the Green Bay Packers because they're not so much different roster wise besides Devante Adams Sean Payton your former head football coach is a big topic of conversation Jonathan Casillas is he coaching next year it's only a one-year hiatus let me tell you something about Sean he will take advantage of every opportunity that he can look he's a guy who understands he plays life like chess you know he plays life like how you play chess he's moving you know down for moves that he's gonna make two three years from now you know so I think so yes you know he lives in Dallas and everybody keep talking about that Dallas job but I don't think that's a job that's gonna be available for him especially with Cooper rush if he wants the job though and McCarthy loses again in the playoffs Jerry Jones will say Mike I know we had a slumber party and I served you milk and cookies and all that goodbye Sean you could take the job let me tell you this scenario we're paying to get the job right that comes back right that gets inserted immediately into the starting lineup now remember Jerry Jones is pumping his whole quarterback controversy stuff one week it is one week and the reason why he was saying that because look we want this guy to win games for us so when that comes back we got to actually think about it and as of right now they're in that position because if this guy keep winning and that comes in he loses back is now all win two for the season and if they rock with back and they don't do as well and you sing Cooper rush on the bench and he's undefeated as a starter McCarthy will get all the blame McCarthy's gonna get all of the blame what about Denver cuz Nathaniel Hackett looks lost to me Russell Wilson's playing hurt but he's also not playing well he hasn't played well in a year and a half if I'm Sean and everyone is hyped up the Cowboys I'd be wanting to go to Denver and we'll see what happens with the Chargers too I think the Chargers one they're making the playoffs yeah Denver is interesting right you they start off the season with the whole not you know giving it to Russ that not letting Russ kick a cook and then they kick the hundred this past week like I don't know like you give it to your quarterback and then you don't kick the field goal which kick the field goal get points like you guys have been struggling like get points and it's like I don't know what they're doing over there look Russ who's a Wisconsin guy I'm a Wisconsin guy I wish he can turn around because people give him so much crap and all all the time but bro he's a pros pro man like the guy comes in and works like he always have the most upbeat attitude and then people still hate him why y'all be hating on Russell Wilson man I'll give you the answer and I used to really like Russ he seems like he's trying too hard yeah that's what it is that the subway commercial wasn't a good luck mr. unlimited stuff it was not a good luck and when you get your ass kick in the first game of the season and you wear this flashy suit before the game you can't wear it to the postgame press conference and the Broncos country let's ride when you lose you may not want to say that that's just me he has the he has to read the room a little bit better I gotta be honest yeah there's no doubt about that Jonathan can see it's great to have you thanks so much thanks for having me bro do you ever wonder about dreams or deja vu that feeling on a first date yes yes the spark is real maybe about where the aliens are if they exist the universe could be infinite so where is everybody my name is Mike Simpson my podcast
