00:00Oh Leroy I

00:05Was Cleveland's it was

00:10And you know coming for me this means something

00:14It felt like Middle-earth whoops, it was rainy and cold

00:23Not too cold to play football the sky looked really like I saw some of the

00:27Pictures I look gloomy. It was just the whole time but here's the funny thing is

00:35that

00:36that picture I took with Bernie was

00:40Before the rain and then we went back out after the rain and the Sun came out for a second

00:49But can I just say this?

00:51You're not helping Mike McDaniel when you come out with gloves on

00:54You're not helping

01:07So cold

01:09he look well because he looks because you want to know why cuz he was freezing in

01:14The game in Green Bay and then he's like I probably didn't wear enough and now he goes to do a game in Cleveland

01:19And he just he over prepared right?

01:21But it was it was rainy

01:26I

01:28Was amazed that some of the passes these quarterbacks were making

01:34Because I'm like

01:36man, they give that give that crew changing them football some credit cuz holy smokes and

01:42I did not realize

01:45There is almost absolutely nobody

01:48Who has fields with real grass?

01:50That's not real grass really

01:55Not everybody can buy a grass farm like Stephen Ross and every and most places use that grass that you see

02:02You ever wonder?

02:05Is that grass so green and all that rain with no divots and nothing it's not real grass. How about this?

02:13Well, listen

02:14But it looks decent other than that. Like I

02:18We hobnobbing, yeah. Yeah, I said hi to Dan and to

02:24to Nat Moore

02:29There's everybody over there and then went talk to my people, you know that I knew and then they ask about me

02:38He keeps asking me that did you did you see Jay Crawford? No, I didn't

02:44And

02:48Just real I believe it or not just realize that me and Bernie's daughters have the same name really yeah

02:57snitchy mouse, huh?

03:05I'm gonna tell you

03:07this story and

03:10One of the reasons why I didn't come to the station

03:14Because I think I would have just walked over and punched Tobin in the face

03:18And here's why I

03:20Get off the plane

03:22Guy comes up to me him and his crew went to the game. They're talking to me and

03:29He goes

03:31Man, I was mad that tour didn't play why you couldn't just get one of them little novocaine shots or something like I'm like

03:38Hey, you do realize

03:41You're one

03:42He goes that's not the point. So it didn't play. There's a big game a must win and he I said he's injured and

03:50We went back and forth

03:53right with

03:54Just pick your list of topics that you would do. He was doing I'm like, are you bleeping kidding me?

04:01A lot of people were a lot of people were upset by it. Look obviously

04:07He wanted to play

04:08I mean everybody said that like it's probably the only reason that it was doubtful instead of just ruled out

04:14Was because he was fighting to play. Yeah, it's probably the only reason that it was like that

04:19But I think everybody's just like man again. He's not gonna be he's not gonna be there at the end of the season, right?

04:24No, like it's just I think it's a fan frustration

04:28I mean certainly there are the bastards who are gonna call him Saul, but it's one of those like

04:33Here again

04:36Be careful with injuries, right like like a player is

04:46Never gonna really say he's out

04:49He's gonna wait for the team to tell him he's out because that looks soft

04:56You understand and so

04:58The fact that the medical staff and the coaches said no, no, we're not you're out

05:04Right, and he could say and say face and say it wasn't me. I wanted to play and and that's fine

05:11but that's just

05:13kind of a charade of playing the game so people don't come to the conclusion, but if you can't play you can't play and

05:20and so

05:22It's unfortunate that

05:24Like people feel that way

05:26But man

05:28Like I mean even with to have been you know playing the last few weeks. You've been getting folded up a little bit

05:37We said in that game against Houston or like I can't believe that he got out of that game, right?

05:42Really? He didn't he just he just gutted it out the next week, right? And so like be careful with that. I was

05:50like

05:51by the way, I

05:54Was in a suite

05:56With all Cleveland people. Yeah, and I may or may not have yelled you got a bleep bleeping kidding me

06:05When it was fourth down

06:08All in one and then it was Browns ball in six

06:13dude

06:14First of all, this is the two things we talked about mostly when you were gone was not to actually we talked about

06:19Mike me Daniels the worst challenger of all time

06:22Agree like who usually let me say this usually you have a guy

06:28mm-hmm that because they watch the replay in the booth and

06:34Mike McDaniel might not be able to see the replay

06:38so

06:40They're usually you see when they wait they're waiting. They're waiting

06:44They're listening for the guys in the booth who are watching the replay. I think he does that I don't I

06:51Know that I think he just eyeballs it me, too

07:01Dude I really thought

07:03Watching it Leroy. I swear to God. I'm like my first initial reaction was oh, I think Stu got that

07:08And then I see that damn red flag come out. I'm like, nope

07:11Cuz as soon as Mike McDaniel challenges it I know I'm wrong. You're wrong because he's never right

07:18Right, and I don't know who their video guy is there but he doesn't listen to him. I don't know

07:24I don't know that dynamic

07:27Maybe he maybe needs to go to

07:31to to

07:34The coach of the Canes and get a

07:37Replay guy, right? He got a timeout. He got a time management guy. He need a replay guy, dude

07:44it's crazy and then I

07:46Knew I knew you had to give middle fingers as soon as they tossed it. I'm like, oh

07:50and in

07:53The legitimate one good thing about not having to it a game is you can kill me sneak it

07:59You can sneak it baby, right?

08:01You could put snoop every every play every team in NFL has some version of I'm gonna tell you what the place called wedge

08:08It's called wedge. In fact when you see Philly do it the damn

08:14Right and left tackles look like they're getting ready to rush the passer

08:18right

08:19And you just push

08:22Tell the quarterback get low and wedge it and wiggle in there. No

08:26No, it's awesome six yards back and see see if agent can bring it to the house. Oh

08:32dude that like I

08:34you know

08:37Everything else I could live with I understood the circumstances of the game so everything else I could live with

08:44That right there. I

08:46Lost my mind. Is it and did he like did he punish a chin after that?

08:51Cuz I felt like a chin got less carries after that

08:53He's like you look you made me look like an idiot

08:56a-chan

08:58the reaction on his face was like

09:00He would like seem like he was like someone did was a supposed to throw it

09:04I just don't get it. Like was he not supposed to bounce? It was a play call, dude. Here's here's the

09:11Coaches do this a lot

09:13sometimes they'll run a play and

09:15see a hole

09:17during the play and

09:19Get irritated as why the running back didn't take that hole

09:23and what I would say is is

09:26running backs may see something different than you

09:29you see on film or

09:32From the sidelines and the way you avoid that is you run it

09:38downhill

09:41I was like like McDaniel licks the scenic route

09:45Yeah, he going scenic route fourth and one

09:48Hey

09:49If he was gonna do that out of rather than run some flippity-doo-doo-doo throw the ball down the field, right?

09:54Reverse what like did like holy Mike McDaniel on fourth and fourth down takes a 1a

10:02Yep, all the way to New York, this is lovely all the way to New York

10:10So

10:11other than that man, just be happy with the win like

10:15You know and and alive still alive. That's it. That's it

10:20I'm trying to guilt the Chiefs in the plan their guys. They owe the Dolphins. You're you're making

10:26You're making a terrible assumption

10:29Fine. Yeah, you're making the assumption if

10:35Their guys don't play

10:37That the Chiefs have no chance and what I would say is

10:43When you play on a team like that

10:47When you finally get your moment to shine it may be worse

10:53Right, like, you know at the end the games, you know

10:57You know at the end the games

10:59for college when when they throw to the other guys in and

11:04Sit the guys down and them guys

11:07Crushed the other team to mm-hmm. Yeah, like it happens. I'm not

11:12Now, let's be clear. Let's be clear. They're not as good as the other guys

11:19Okay, that being said

11:22You think Carson Wentz want to show he can still play?

11:26right great

11:28I'm just saying like don't just

11:31DTR wanted to show that he could shine yesterday too. And then Calais Campbell was in his face, dude

11:35can I just say something I

11:38Was watching on the field and I walked by

11:42Three individuals. I said hi to one. I said hi to my scared and I just looked at him and stared

11:49Mmm, right. He's too strong. Then I walk by

11:53Don't underestimate

11:55the size of Zack sealer

11:59Monster cheese and he is baby brother to Calais Campbell. That's crazy

12:07All three of them chewing glass, right

12:11But but the thing is is the other two guys are just big right?

12:15Miles Garrett got them muscles sitting on top of muscles
