What's up, var? How you doing? So far. Hey, how you guys doing? Hey, Jonas. Hi. What's on the ground? Do you guys know the cats are going to the top? Yeah. Yes. Whoo. It's on the ground coverage. Whoo. All right. What was the what was the scene like there? Oh man. I mean, you guys know like like any playoff atmosphere is amazing playoff hockey. I just it takes up a notch. I don't know why there's something about it. The crowd was incredible. That's not like Carolina fans travel. So you have to worry about that. You know, the Toronto series a little different, but just an incredible atmosphere right when we walked in to the game. I mean, they score within what 30 seconds of the first period? Yeah, it was. So it was already like gray vibes like, all right, this is it. We're not bad luck. We're not the mush, you know, and you walk in and the it's just it's so hard to to describe the like kind of not terrible towels, but whatever the towel was, you know, everyone's out there waving their towel where they were possibly really well. Wow. Yeah, they're watching. Where they were? They were saying my song. No, they weren't that big. No, they weren't like a frisbee. Yeah. Yeah. They would have been serving drinks on those. Yeah. Yeah. It was a Captain America shield. Yeah. It was a who wasn't an ice man towel. Although the Panthers did ask if they could use it. Bob Ropsky could use it. Yeah. Although Anderson needed a little bit more. But it's look, I've been, I think three NHL playoff games. I went to a couple of games at the igloo Stanley Cup final games and oh nine when the Penguins played the Red Wings. I went to a Kings Vancouver Canucks game with my brother back in like 2011 or 12. It's the best as far as playoff games. You go see live over NFL over, you know, NBA Major League Baseball NHL playoff games live are unbelievable. It's like a rock concert. It makes me wish I played hockey. Like it really does. There's not mean, I mean, I played football baseball basketball all growing up, played golf, played other sports. It makes you wish you played hockey. It really does. And I honestly can't. I never feel like that until that moment where you're like, it's such a unique atmosphere to be and see a game like that. It's the only time I ever am like, man, I wish I would have played hockey. Listen, I spent a lot of time with the capitals when I did local radio so much so where I ended up going down with Bruce Boudreau and all of them and hanging out in the locker room and putting stuff on and going out on the ice. Hell no. Can you skate? I can skate. Yeah. He bark at skate. I'm from Pittsburgh. I can skate. I can skate. You probably can. You probably like roller skated. I was a rollerblader. Actually, I rollerblade hockey. I mean, I'm from Pittsburgh. Nice pair of Bauer roller blades growing up. I did. Power. No, K-2. I had in lines. In lines. Okay. Yeah. In lines. Remember K-2? No, I don't know. There were a pair that looked like. Ice skates though. My end lines look like ice skates. Anyway, bro, the way those skates make your toes feel and then I saw like I saw. Arm or the K-2's. Let me see them. Remember those are bet those are like the official. Oh, that guy plays. Oh, yeah. Those are bad ass. Yeah. K-2's awesome. That was the that was the issue right there. 260 bucks Jesus. Is that how much they are now? Yeah. People still wear it over to the bucks back then. The hockey is expensive, man. They walk. It's very expensive. They all look like they have like what's it called like like frostbite or like gang green on their toe like their toes are bang. Those are that they are easily the ugliest beat up toes in all the sports hockey player feet. I just wouldn't be able to do it. Plus it's cold. You know, I'm a black man. I like tropical weather. You know. And it's it's it's although I while I loved going to the games, I was always happy when I could go warm back up. I don't know. I'm cold right now. Yeah. But if you guys did play, you realize you probably could still be playing just because although the physicality like there's not a lot of knee injuries because you're just gliding all the time. So there was like coin, right? Yeah. Like I like unless the guy gets, you know, lit up into the board, but that would have been how I would have been playing. I just don't feel like I would have lasted long. Well, I actually I couldn't play because I can't grow facial hair. You know, all these guys grow up like playoff beards. I would have nothing. Come on. Yeah. You really can't grow like if you tried to swear I tried for a no shave November one time when I was in Kansas City playing for the Chiefs and Jim Zorn our quarterback coach was like for zorney. That's just that's just disappointing. Hmm. What? Well, that was a DC thing we created. That was the slogan. That was what we did on my show. Horny. Horny. What? I don't know. Wait, did you ever get to know Jim? I did it. He's the nicest human being. He's a nice dude. We used to spank him on air though. I mean, I felt bad because I could tell he was a nice dude. Real good guy, but we just it was so bad. It was so toxic in DC. Yeah, we call it. We see we created horny for zorney because he's a good looking dude, you know. Not bad looking dude. He was a baller too. Yeah, and he was a baller. Was he a lefty? They used a lefty, right? Yeah. Yeah. But watching that game last night was awesome. Just seeing the atmosphere and seeing a little better. Like the game winner with four seconds left. It was unbelievable. How low were you? Were you low or were you up? Yeah, I got to be nose. Here's the thing is I don't even want to say because I thought we were going to be as close as we were as we were. So when we got the tickets, we're the fourth row and I was like, oh, okay. That's like far enough up, but it's close enough where you're like, well, being a really good spot. We were we were the second row behind the panthers penalty bias. So so we got I mean, we were right there. Right there. That's like it was sweat. Oh, kind of 20 feet from the sin bin. There's Brady and Lee and Ben. Yeah, go take a break. You get time out, buddy. Oh, man, it's awesome. That is the one thing though, when you because you know, obviously there's the home and home with the NBA and the NHL, but like you don't get that with the NFL, the Super Bowls neutral site in college football, it's neutral site. Like how many college football playoff expansion happens? Like that is for sure you're going to have, you know, home games in college football for those playoff games because I would love to be see with that atmosphere. The first round. Yeah. God, that's going to be so much fun, man. I've seen seeing the crowd go berserk and seeing that whole atmosphere because last night was awesome. Got a clean sweep. And now one of the chances, you know, we see another one for the final. I mean, I mean, I'll tell you this much. It's an exciting time. I mean, obviously this hasn't happened for the Panthers, the cats since 1996. There were rats being thrown on the ice to kind of give you flashes of the old days when that was the case. And it's it's such a contrast when when I was up in Boston and you think about all the success of the Bruins franchise and I talked about walk through the airport. You see all the banners that were hanging or all that. You know, the Panthers only have three jerseys retired. Two of them are players, one's an owner. I mean, it's not like there's that rich of a history, obviously, for the franchise. Can I guess one of the players? Yeah, go on Van Briezburg or whatever his name is. No, no, it's not Van Biesburg. No, I was actually surprised by by one of them. All right. Eddie Garcia, can you name the two player jerseys retired by the Florida Panthers? Uh, off the top of my head noise. By the way, is it Wayne Heisenga that has his? Yes. Okay. He's the non player. I believe it's like number 37. It's like an odd number, I think. Well, don't ask me. I'll tell you that. I certainly would not be able to give you any. Oh, uh, uh, Pablo Beret. Uh, yes. I believe he's one of them. How many years did he play there? I remember him in 96. He was part of that team that beat the penguin. Sorry, Var. That brings up bad memories. And by the way, Eddie, how do you spell that last name? Uh, Beret B-U-R-E. Oh, maybe it's not. Yeah, maybe it is. I forget. Go ahead. Well, no, because now I'm thinking they spelled it different than that. I was like, but I'm like, uh, that's probably how you pronounced it. Oh, I know the long goes one of them. Oh, we're all right. The long go. I think there's one other, but anyway, the long go. I mean, I'm looking at, uh, I looked it up. I'm looking at Bill Tory. Tory. That was 93. Bill Tory. Yeah. So there's that. There was a, I was going to tell you guys about your Bill Tory. Did you guys know that? By the way, LaVara wrote it down. He was a, Bill Tory was also not a player. He was an executive. So they've got one player. So they've got one player. I just wanted to let you guys know that Bill Tory was not a player. You know, thank you. And that there's only one player. How did, how did Van Biesbrook not get his jersey retired yet? What's that about? They're bad blood there Eddie? I don't think so. Number 34, I remember him. Yeah. Is that what, is that what number? Yeah. It's number 34. And I remember he fought a goaltender for the Penguins and I, I want to say it was Ken Reggit, but I don't know if I have that crime in the playoffs. Hey Eddie, what do you think of the game? I thought it was great. And it's a, it's a, it's a great story. These, the Panthers, as we talked about, I mean, they really shouldn't have gotten the playoffs. The Panthers got lucky with Pittsburgh choking. They're sorry, Jonas and Lamar. They needed help to get in. And now they're just, they're just rolling. Eddie, you've been doing enough playoff games and other sports is the NHL. Number one. Yeah, it is. Come on by a wide margin. Come on. LaVar, I'm selling you man. Yeah. And look, I, I was not a believer either. I didn't grow up playing hockey, being around a much at all. I mean, we literally had the Columbus Blue Jackets with tug nut as the goal. Tug nut. Tug nut. Tug nut for president. Like I said, I was like, we're not even any good, but growing up around that I was like curious and then now brother in law, you know, plays and just being around the whole. It's the coolest thing. It really is. It's such a neat sport. Yeah. That was fun. Fun atmosphere. And listen, if we get cats, Vegas, Golden Knights, I mean, you got a Florida Vegas and Florida. I mean, who knows? See if we can make it happen. I mean, this is a big show, you know. Yeah. Big time, you know. There were a number of people who said, listen, listen in the mornings. I was like, well, I'll be, I'll be there tomorrow morning. Oh, that's a good morning to you guys. I mean, yeah, it's. They said, go sit. Yeah. You think cats to the cup after that party last night, you think they're up listening to the show? Yeah. Yeah. They're saying. I don't know. Maybe some of them probably have to go to work. Yeah, they're steam rooming, you know. Yeah. Steam room. Well, like steam rolling. Yeah. Yes, steam rolling. Yeah. That's true. That's fair. It is. You know, y'all are you're a pampered down there. What was that mean? You have Southern California, pal? Yeah. Oh, that's true. You just still got. I'm cold as hell. Geez, I'm cold. Put your mask by. I got I got out of my vehicle this morning, Brady Quinn. And I was like, oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I'm looking up Johnson. Look at him. He's freezing. It's two pros in a cup of Joe here, Fox Sports radio, LaVire, Aarrington Brady Quinn, Jonah Snox, so that you can listen to this show is always on the iHeart radio app. So we're going to have the usual is coming up later on. We got another edition of in case you missed it. We've got you in or you out. Superbriers going to stop by. We're going to have a bunch of NFL news and notes. We're going to get to it's all yours. Again, a three hour extravaganza here on a Thursday morning, but coming up next year from the tire rack.com studios. Apparently one player in the NFL is about we and not me. We'll tell you who that is. That's next. Be sure to catch live editions of two pros in a cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LaVire, Aarrington and Jonas Knox weekdays at six AM Eastern three AM Pacific on Fox Sports radio and the iHeart radio app. Superbros and a cup of Joe Fox Sports radio, LaVire, Aarrington Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with the here coming up in a little over 20 minutes from now from the tire rack.com studios. We are going to talk about what could be a potentially a battle, a battle of egos and some bad news for one highly drafted NFL rookie. We'll get into that for you here coming up again, a little over 20 minutes from now on FSR Patrick Mahomes. There's been a lot of speculation about Mahomes signing a new deal or getting a rework deal to try and cash in on that $450 million contract he signed. There's been some speculation that he's underpaid that in comparison to some of these other deals, maybe he needs to go back to the drawing board and try and get a little bit more money. Well he spoke yesterday about priorities for him as he embarks on year number six as a starting quarterback in the NFL. Here was the chief's quarterback, Patrick Mahomes. I've always said, I worry about legacy and winning rings more than making money at this moment. But I'm I know we keep communication. We see what's going on around the league. But the same time I'll never do anything that's going to hurt us from keeping the great players around me. So it's kind of teetering around that line. You just want to do whatever it did not hurt other quarterbacks whenever their contracts come up. But you want to kind of keep the bar pushing. So it's not about being the highest paid guy. It's not about making a ton of money. I've made enough money where I'll be set for the rest of my life. But at the same time you've got to find that line where you're making a good amount of money, but you're still keeping a lot of great players around you so you can win these Super Bowls and you're able to compete in these games. How about that? What a great perspective. Little we, not me. It's just sensible. It's not even just more we, not me. It's just that's a professional. That's a professional approach. That is a responsible approach. It's a sensible approach. And it's to me, my opinion, it's the right approach. Yeah. I mean, that's just that is if you could put that in video form or put it in form with text and say, this is how you should be thinking because more often than not, he's right. It's not, it's not so much about being the highest paid. It is about keeping the bar moving for the position. And so that's, that's, that's the approach, right? I mean, it is not saying the same thing though. Well, I think you can push the bar without, without it being you being the highest paid. You can bet you can stay within the standard or you can stay within the trend. I don't know that is said exactly the same thing. What's the bar then? I guess, I guess that's what I'm trying to figure out then. If, if pushing the bar isn't becoming the highest paid, like we look at how, whatever metric you want to use now, we look at the highest paid contracts and we say, well, that's the bar, right? If you push that, how are you taking a team friendly or a, or a discount of a contract? Yeah. I mean, it's, it's a good question, a valid question. I, I would tend to say there may be other aspects of a contract outside of the finances that, that push the bar in terms of what, whatever you're able to get in terms of other things that are negotiated, whether it be more guaranteed monies or guarantees or whatever it may be. I just don't think that pushing the bar is exactly saying that you got the highest contract. The pushing the bar is you, you played your part and you got a contract that is within reasonable, you know, a reasonable number with the trend of, of what that position is getting. I don't think it's necessary necessarily the highest, if it's the highest, then you are the bar. And if you're pushing it, I think it's like, we're right here, but I don't have to be the one that resets the bar. I don't have to be the one that moves the bar. I'm right here. They're right here. So once you get to like a point where it's like four or five dudes that are in the same range, then there's going to be a contract that comes out that, that is higher than those. And I think that that's kind of, to me, that should be the approach really, because the strength is in the numbers. You can't deny if there's other, there's three or four other guys I had the same type of contract you have. It's like that, that organization has to look at it and say, look, he's, he's an elite franchise guy. So we got to give him a contract that is industry rate, it's industry fair. It's, it's industry standard for his position grouping at the level that he's at. That's how I, I read it. That's how I interpret it. Yeah. And I guess I define it as like pushing the bar is, is creating something to a higher standard. That's how I define it. And, and if you're looking at it that way, then yeah, you're saying he's resetting the market. And, and I think you know, Kansas City is lucky to have Patrick Mahalb's not just for his skill set, but for a lot of the things you heard, he's, he's a smart man who knows what he wants, he's willing to, you know, sit in, sit here now and say, I'm going to have enough money to take care of my family and generations for a long time. And he, he doesn't need to necessarily push the bar because you know, he knows he's going to have success and hopefully Kansas City takes care of him and they don't take for granted the fact that he's not going to, in my opinion, push the bar to, to always be the highest paid. Like right now, if you could make a case for a guy making 60, 70 million a year. That's so hot. It's, it's moles. Yeah. Like there's no one else who has the power and the ability to say, yeah, he should be making that. Like he's the best player in the NFL. He plays the most important position. All he knows is AFC Championship games and then winning two Super Bowls and winning multiple MVPs. He's done. It's absurd. He's already had a Hall of Fame career. Yeah. And so if anyone could, he could, but he doesn't see himself, at least not now in that way, needing to constantly do it. And there's nothing wrong with that. That's his own prerogative. I think what's the most interesting about it though is if he was, if he was drafted to a different team and organization, I wonder if he would have changed like knowing he's got a known or that's got the sort of pockets to be able to do that. And then outside of that, you know, will that change? It's all good. Now, winning cures everything. When you win, when you win Super Bowls, when you have success and all that, you don't worry about all the other stuff. I mean, that's, I think about Tom Brady. Tom Brady very early in his career, won three Super Bowls. So he had, it was born into kind of this idea of coming off a six round draft pick rookie contract. He was born into this like, Hey, if you leave room for other guys, like we can build this team around you and we're going to win. We're going to be successful. Like you're going to win more Super Bowls. You're going to have more success. And that happened. So he was kind of born into that, but if they hadn't had success, I have a certain point where he was more concerned about financial security over success, you know, similar to Tom Brady, Patchema Holmes was, I mean, they, I mean, like all he knew is going to AFC Championship games and going to Super Bowls and, you know, being a part of that. So I do wonder if there's a period of time where it changes and he does look around and go, I'm the best player in the league. Why am I not being compensated like that? Like if we're being real, aren't there a lot of people out there who, when they're the best at their job in the world, like in the entire world, they want to be compensated like that. And I'm not faulting them either. If that's what they want, you know, that that's their own prerogative. I just, I wonder if Patchema Holmes will ever get to that point. Because he's obviously not there now, but he definitely could be if you wanted to. If you guys are still playing a Patrick Mahomes, say you're both playing quarterback and you're coming up on deals. Are you kind of looking at him to be like, Hey man, like have some loyalty for the position not the organization you're playing with? Like is the hard, the hard thing is this. If he doesn't push the bar, because we wouldn't give you this phrase and no one can. No one can. Like, like, I mean, technically they, they will and can, right? We see this all the time or the average annual value of this contract. He's the highest paid player in NFL history. It's like you see that and you go, okay, it's not quite to the contract of, you know, Watson or whoever else. But if he doesn't, then who can? And I think that's what other quarterbacks would say. Like that's what if you're Joe Burrow, there is that fine line of saying, I obviously want to get compensated well. I'd like to reset the market. His agent surely would like to reset the market, but I have to take into account how much money is this organization going to have to spend around me so I could be successful and I can win a super bore. I can win an MVP. Like there's all those things you have to factor in as well. He's had the best start to a career of any quarterback in NFL history. And I don't even know that it's close. Like his numbers are stupid just to see what he's done. The Super Bowls. His first year was stupid. It was absurd. And remember when they were the talk was, man, that's a bold move. They just went to the playoffs with Alex Smith, but apparently they think he's ready. And then you know what though, the chiefs have literally set back organizations because everyone's now trying to find Patchema homes and everyone's trying to implement that. Like if you look at other teams that have quarterbacks who've helped get them to the playoffs, then they're like, all right, but this guy, we've hit our ceiling. We've got to go find a guy who gets past that. Like, I mean, I'm not going to say what NFL teams immediately coming to mind, but there is one. And if you look at the past two years, they've taken quarterbacks to the draft and it's like, all right, man, like maybe you should appreciate what you have because it's gotten you to the playoffs. And you've actually gotten pretty far, you know, a couple of years ago or a few years back. Yeah, it's just his numbers are crazy. And then, you know, a couple of those AFC title games, I think we're overtime losses. Yeah. So, yeah, just coin flip. Yeah. So it's just phenomenal start to the career for Patrick Mahomes. He would be a first bout Hall of Famer if he retired today. Thank God he plays on, you know, like a decent surface in Kansas City. He's not having to worry about running around on the old such good grass. He'll ask for a turf because it's such good grass. I do play on grass out there. Yeah. Kind of career short. I wonder what grassy company they use, but I'll tell you this as long as they're using grass, I guess it's okay because did you know that artificial turf on football field causes 32% more non-contact knee injuries? Well, American grassy company Pennington is on a mission and it's to ban turf fields with their hashtag flip the turf movement. So go to pinnington.com slash flip the turf now to learn more and sign the petition for teams to hashtag flip the turf to real grass. Two pros and a cup of Joe here on Fox Sports Radio. So we're going to have another edition of incase you missed it coming up here shortly, but for all the latest from around the world of sports, make some noise for a man who's still growing out his playoff beard for the Stanley Cup playoffs, the one and only Edmund Garcia. Actually, no, that got shaved long ago. Oh, did it? Yeah. Yeah. My team lost in the first. It's a big monitor in front of you. Can I see? Let me see. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You got a mustache stuff. I'm a statue. Got to shave that off. But when the Kings were rolling back in like 2011, you grew that bad boy out big time. I did. Yeah. Had that kind of skunk look on my chin there with the gray coming through. I was like, oh, nice. Wow. I didn't know that was going to be there, but you don't find those things out unless you grow out of beard. So anyway, yeah, speaking of speaking of those cats, Stanley Cup playoffs game for Eastern Conference finals and the Panthers close out the hurricanes with a four, three win Matthew Goodchuk, another huge game for the Panthers, two goals, including the game winner with five seconds left on the power play to get the victory third game winning goal of the season for Kachuk and the Panthers have now won 11 of their last 12 games this postseason. This was after just squeaking into the playoffs as the final team in during the regular season for Carolina, their woes in the conference finals continues. They've now lost 12 straight games in conference finals play. They've been swept the last three times. They've been in the conference finals, but Florida moving on and they advanced the Stanley Cup final for the second time in their franchise history. They await the winner of the Vegas Golden Knights Dallas stars series, which will possibly wrap up tonight with Vegas holding a three oh series. Eddie, let me ask you Jamie Ben got suspended two games. Yeah. I'm surprised it wasn't more. That was pretty brutal. It was awful. It was the largest suspension we've seen so far in the playoffs is three most Michael bunting of the Maple Leafs. So since he got kicked out like in the first two minutes of the game, I think they kind of felt like that was kind of a one game. They just rounded it up to a full game. And then they gave him two, which kind is like three. So that's how the, that's how the each other like he literally just took a stick and cross check some guy to the explanation though. Did you see his? Yeah. What provoked that? I don't know. Uh, he said it was unfortunate that I fell over on him and like braced myself with my stick. I was like, wow, that is next level bull crap right there. What's what? Levar, what's the dirtiest movie ever pulled in football that you looked back on and go, God, I did that. I don't know. That was another person just in the moment. Fit a grade. I've never had any regret on how I tried to handle my business on the field. He was a, it was a Serengeti, John. It was a Serengeti. The killer be killed. It does make sense. Either your food or your cocky's different because you got a stick though, you know, like there's a like when I was knives on your feet too. Knives on your feet. Yeah. Yeah. When you're there, like, and you're watching guys just agitate other guys with their stick. They'll be poking them and stuff. They're hitting them with it. They're poking them. They're like, you know, checking. I just, how about that? How about that collision on Jacob's slave in? Oh, wow. You're talking about the start, right? Yes. Yes. That was one of the, that was one of maybe the biggest that I've ever seen ever in hockey. That was a body check. I mean, he got up and he dropped back down. Yeah. He was like a boxer, Jonas. It was like Friday. You got knocked. Yeah. Mine. Hey, who's got the, who's got the coverage of the NHL final or Stanley Cup final? Is that, is it TNT or is it ABC? Yes, man. I think it's ABC is damn it, man. TNT's coverage is so much better. It is. It really is. It's so much better. Yeah, by the way, that goes for both sports. Yeah, it does. Yeah, it does. Like Bissonettes. Awesome. Like just that whole round table they have even Lundquist is fantastic. Just the way he does. He's got the big names. Lundquist. But TNT's got the guys who are more fun to listen to. But TNT's got Kretsky, don't they? Yeah. They do, but he kind of just kind of makes an appearance. He's got a drop soon. Kretsky's like Barkley because he makes it known not as explicit as Barkley does that yeah, I'd rather kind of wrap this up pretty quick here and get out of here. Like he's just, he's ready for these overtime games to end and just just hear Barkley the other. And Shaq was like, you just over there talking to yourself on Charles. Charles lost his thought. Didn't know what he wanted to say. He did have the day, right? South Beach flu, man. He was like, hey, you know, we've got so we've got an update on, well, what do we get? At Lee, what do we got here? Is this good news? Yeah, I am seeing exclusively on TNT for the first time on cable since 94. Oh, I apologize. All right. So everybody else felt the same way you guys did. Good. I feel like I've got to go to a Stanley Cup game now. After going last night, I told myself, I was like, yeah, you don't want to do it now. Like I know not got to go. And it's to the point where I think my older two daughters because they were like, I rate that my wife and I went, but they weren't going. And I was like, well, yeah, there's some economics to this as well, kids. Let's teach you how this works. But are you serious? You have to take them. How about say, are you being serious right now? Come on. Who me? Yes. I don't know if the Panthers and anyone attested this. I mean, last time was 1996, you kind of got to take advantage of this window of time. Do you not? Yeah. I mean, just saying the financial aspect of it like, come on, come on. I know. You're Brady Quindot. Yeah. Like, I think you could, I think you could take your kids straight, straight cash. Homie. I mean, I mean, if you took all the girls and leash, I mean, we're probably talking like I don't think my three year olds going to last there. I was just, I mean, I mean, that's more. I've got a six or four or three in a two month. I mean, that's more. That's more. That's more reasonable than tickets. That's more reasonable to say why they're not going. I mean, but $1,500. If you were to take the older ones and all of their home girls to the game, I think you'd still be okay. Q. It's $1,500. Like you could literally buy them a racehorse for that price and you want to go to the hockey game. Come on. Choose the ads. You know, I think you can buy them a racehorse for the kids. Financially speaking, this does not make sense for us budgetarily wise for you guys to make this. Plus how about he says you can go to the hockey game or I can buy you a, you know, whatever blank that's going to be a lot less, right? They're going to take the price. The light, whatever. Yeah. Plus they're going to want some apparel because it's got that sweet little palm tree on it. And it's there's like a good vibe to it. You know, it's got that sunrise that Florida feel to it. So yeah. It's one of the shirt I was wearing. No, listen, listen, listen, it's going to be $2,000. This is what he does. I swear. I'm not doing everybody was wearing those shoes. It's going to be over $2,000 to take for four tickets for sure. Yeah, it's all right. It's going to make expensive. Yeah. That's all right. Why buy him something else and replace the price tag with something more expensive and just make him think like I spent that one. Should I just shop a target? What do you think? Yeah. I mean, a lot of things going on there. I mean, target. Go to a hobby shop. That would be, you know, yeah. That would have been completely whatever Jonas said. No, I got it. Very familiar with it. Yeah. It is too pro. That's familiar with it. You love saying that you shot. Are you that familiar with the Jonas? Kind of. It's more marshals for you though. Kind of like casual.

Oh yeah. What's love got to do? Got to do it in. What's love? What a second hand emotion. What is it? What's love got to do? Got to do it in. Nothing. Who needs a heart for the heart? I'm playing the drums. Oh yeah. She was coming from the heart too. She was shooting not from the hip. That's like some wisdom too. Yeah. What's love but a second hand emotion? Please tell me she wrote her own lyrics. If we find out she didn't write her lyrics, it's really going to pop me up. You know what though? We know it really happened. We know the back story to the song. So even if she had to explain what she was feeling somebody else wrote it out, I would beg to differ on that one, Joe. That's a great point. Those are her lyrics for certain. That is a great point. I mean, you know, between Tina Turner and Bone Thugs in Harmony yesterday, we really set this show back about 35, 40 years. Oh my gosh.

The live. Good morning, LaVar. Good morning, Brady. Got to do it. Got to do it. Morning, Jonas. Who needs a delight when a delight has a tide? What's Todd got to do with Lee? What's Todd got to do with Lee? My first girlfriend dresses Tina Turner for Halloween. Oh, I thought you about to say Todd with your first girlfriend. There's a stutter. Golly, darn. Wait, I got it. I thought it would have been Gwen Stefati, Lee. What do you mean, Jonas? Fellas in case you missed this. Texans current starting quarterback, that being Davis Mills, says he is not mentoring CJ Stroud saying he's still competing for the starting job. Good for him. It is what it is. Hey, be careful who he pisses off though. You don't want to get moolah gatted out there. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. You got to be careful. I mean, all you got to do is take a selfie with him and they'll be all right. Yeah, all right. You know, send him a little off. Just catch a little selfie after practice like the homies and it'll work out. Yeah. Yeah. That's also the reason that they were picking number two overall. So there's a pattern of behavior. Apparently Davis Mills wants to win and compete and not just sort of cave in and say, I'll be a backup. So good for him. Good for him. Yeah. All right. Davis Mills and his long neck. It's a very long, wow, net. It's a long. By the way, if you actually look at Davis Mills' numbers, it hasn't been that bad. Yeah. The worst QBR last season, ahead of Zach Wilson and somebody else, I forget who. What do you guys name the receivers he was throwing to? Yeah. Andre Johnson. Yeah. David Anderson. David Anderson, still in Houston. What else we got there? Fellas, according to a report from Sportico, 67% of current student athletes are currently betting on sports. Good for that. 67% is huge. Good heavens. Wow. Talk about a hobby. I know. Although wait a, wait a pass the time though. Nothing to do on a week night. Hey, let's bet on some NHL games. Like why not throw five, 10 bucks in a game and get after a little bit. You're funny with your amount that you bet. I'm not talking about me. I mean, I bet that. But after hearing Brady says too expensive to take his kids to 2000 dollars for a hockey game, don't you say that because you are cheap. You're cheap for real. Like, dang, you just showed he a little cheap too. God, I'm saying it's actually, it's going to be more than that. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation.
