00:00Browns are gonna Browns. F*** that.
00:02That's me against Vitella. I'm an Italian.
00:05Committed to winning.
00:06Now, back to Stiney and Guru on 95.7 The Game.
00:15Yeah, it's the crossover.
00:17My guy, Bonte Hill, short timer, doing a lot of things.
00:22Ladies and gentlemen, let's bring him in.
00:24He's got the same shoes as George Kittle.
00:26He is a multi-media star, Bonte Hill, Hill, Hill, Hill, Hill.
00:36Hey, hey, Dibbs, wow.
00:40You give me that look, man.
00:42You give me that look and it scares me.
00:45Look, I don't know if I did anything right today because Dibbs, every look, he came in the studio and
00:50he just looks at me.
00:51That same look right there.
00:53That look right there.
00:55I wish I was on YouTube because I don't like this.
00:59What I don't like about this look is what happens when you do a radio show with you.
01:03So you're wearing this soccer jersey.
01:05It's not rugby.
01:06It's just all black.
01:07Rugby team.
01:08It doesn't matter.
01:10The point is when I look at you.
01:12All blacks.
01:13But you've got a monitor in front of you with a microphone covering the center.
01:18You look like a priest.
01:20No, look at you.
01:22If you could, I want to take a picture of you and show it to you.
01:25What's blocking you?
01:26You look like a priest.
01:29Well, I mean, if it's all about celibacy, then I might as well be a priest.
01:35Hello.
01:36Hello, friends.
01:37Yes.
01:38Time for the crossover.
01:39No, no, it is time.
01:40Brought to you by Bay Alarm.
01:43I came in quick because, you know, earlier today you did the legal and might have been
01:50like 10 after the hour.
01:51It was a little bit loosey-goosey.
01:53It was eight.
01:53I had it at 10, but I could be wrong.
01:55And then here we are in the crossover and you and Willard are catching up like a couple
01:59of old fraternity brothers from the late 90s.
02:03And so I thought, you know what?
02:04I'm coming in.
02:04I'm going to reset it.
02:06Let's get Bonte Hill.
02:07Like, let's get Radio Bonte back.
02:09No.
02:09Let's do this.
02:10I understand why.
02:11Guru, it just dawned on me.
02:13I mean, it's why he is wearing the all-blacks jersey today.
02:17Why do you think?
02:18Because Phil Boat Mike didn't give him the black art yesterday.
02:20Oh, there you go.
02:21Then he had to.
02:22There you go.
02:22There's a method to his madness.
02:24There you go.
02:24You got your black art.
02:25There you go.
02:25I'm always giving you the black art.
02:27From the first day I met you, you've always had the black art.
02:30I appreciate you.
02:31I appreciate you.
02:32Only one from the station, the little stat.
02:34Yeah.
02:35For Lil D's graduation in sack.
02:37Y'all never forget it.
02:38I think it was your daughter's graduation, actually.
02:39But don't ruin a good story with that.
02:42I mean, whatever.
02:43I showed up.
02:45And it may or may not have been because I was in a hellacious fight with the wife.
02:51Don't let that ruin an otherwise good story.
02:54It's like, oh, yeah?
02:56Okay.
02:56I'm going to Elk Grove.
02:58I'll show you.
02:59And I might have been the first one there and the last one out.
03:03Whatever.
03:03That's neither here nor there.
03:04I do have a way of doing that at parties.
03:06Oh, yeah.
03:07The Super Bowl's on the phone.
03:08It sure is.
03:09Your watch party.
03:10Yep.
03:10Whatever.
03:11Although you used to leave the Hooters parties early with Hurricane Gail.
03:14Oh, well, the Caner.
03:16Like, sometimes you had to go to the bullpen.
03:18And I actually was not at Hooters.
03:20It was at the other one before we went to, like, rookies in San Jose.
03:25Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:26In San Jose.
03:27And Bubba Paris picked up my sister.
03:29Not like, hey, what are you doing later?
03:31Like, he physically picked her up.
03:34Okay.
03:34I looked over.
03:35I'm like, oh, my God.
03:36The Caner is in the air.
03:38And, yeah, Bubba Paris had picked up my sister.
03:41But those were good times back when, you know, the Niners wouldn't ever think about making it.
03:46So we could do, like, the two conference championship games.
03:49We do a station event.
03:50It'd be fun.
03:51And then.
03:51Campbell, California.
03:52Well, and then the Niners got good.
03:53It's like, well, we can't do this anymore.
03:55And they also shut down Hooters around here.
03:57Even in Campbell?
03:58Yeah, even in Campbell.
03:59Oh.
04:00That I did not know.
04:01They should go for the wings.
04:02The wings were good.
04:02Yeah.
04:03Yeah, you went for the wings.
04:04That's what we used to say.
04:05Oh, these drives are for my friends.
04:08My best friend, Big Dog.
04:10My best friend, Big Dog City Guru knows them.
04:13He chipped a tooth off one of those wings in Vegas.
04:16Yeah, it wasn't good.
04:16I really like the silverware that they have there.
04:18It's my style.
04:20The wings are really good.
04:20Striped down the middle.
04:21Wings are fresh Hooters.
04:23That's sad.
04:24All right.
04:24Anyway.
04:25How's everybody doing?
04:25No doubt.
04:26Doing all right.
04:26Doing great, yeah.
04:27Doing all right.
04:28Honestly, Father Dibs.
04:29I wish it was Saturday.
04:31I can't wait for this game, man.
04:33Sunday.
04:34Duh.
04:34Yeah, Sunday.
04:35You guys, I heard you talking about this.
04:37I made the premise.
04:38Tell me if I'm off because I know it would rub Stiney wrong.
04:41Both teams are going to try to win.
04:43And we had Ross Tucker on.
04:44He was like, Seattle, of course, you know, don't want to go down.
04:47Two losses to the Niners.
04:48But I feel like the Niners need to know that gap is not as wide or there's no gap as
04:57opposed
04:57to Seattle getting the best of them two of the last three times.
05:00There's no lessening the importance of this game, but I don't agree.
05:05I think this is a bigger game for Seattle.
05:07Really?
05:08Yeah, you're down two games and kind of two and a half games if you lose it.
05:12If the Niners lose it, you're both four and one.
05:15This is just chapter one.
05:16Yeah.
05:17It's just chapter one.
05:19I used chapter one.
05:19You're going to see him again.
05:21Could be three.
05:22It could be three.
05:23You've already – look, the Niners are already 2-0 in the division.
05:27The Rams and Seahawks are kind of quickly up a creek if the Seahawks lose this game.
05:32If Philly would have held on to that one over the Rams.
05:34I know you guys are talking on the emotional side of it.
05:37Psychologically?
05:37I acknowledge that.
05:39But that doesn't supersede the map.
05:41These are new teams.
05:42Ross says the same thing.
05:43So, like, what if –
05:44Divs, the Niners went to the red zone one time in the last two games against the Seahawks.
05:50If they still had that same success against the Niners and the way it looks, I disagree with Willard.
05:56Shocker.
05:57I think it's a bigger game for the Niners.
05:59Good old days.
06:00I think it's bigger for Seattle just based on the reality of if they lose, the Niners are 3-0
06:05in the division.
06:06And they are two games up on Seattle with the tiebreaker and with the second tiebreaker of the divisional record.
06:12And the next game that you play is going to be back here.
06:16So, if you're Seattle, this is one where if you are a real Super Bowl contender, you go out there
06:22and you win.
06:22You have your quarterback back.
06:23Your running game is a big question mark, but you still have JSN.
06:27And nobody's had really an answer for him in that.
06:30And the one thing that you hold over Shanahan still is Mike McDonald is the Shanahan Whisperer.
06:37That part.
06:37So, that's the one where you go out there and you win this game 17-15 or whatever it is.
06:43It's a defensive struggle.
06:44You hold them down.
06:46It's in your house.
06:47If you're Seattle, this game is much more important for you.
06:50That's why the smartest show in America could.
06:52Yeah.
06:53Or we're wrong.
06:54Could be.
06:55I mean, I could be.
06:56Don't let me get hot.
06:58You don't want to do too much math in the first five weeks of the year.
07:02But, yeah, it's not just Niners would already have game in hand against the Rams,
07:07already have a game in hand against the Seahawks, but it's both of their technical road games.
07:12Rams and Seahawks would need to come back from this and they would have to do it at Levi's.
07:16And, you know, that's a thing.
07:19That's a thing.
07:20Like, if you're thinking about, we know this division is going to spit out at least two playoff teams.
07:24I got three steals.
07:25And you're probably right.
07:27So, I mean, that means home field advantage and the division are of the utmost importance.
07:32The Niners, if five weeks in, they've already got three division wins plus roadies against the Rams and Seahawks.
07:37That's monstrous.
07:38Yeah, and I said this to be earlier.
07:41Nobody's season is over, especially with me telling you three teams from the division are going to make it.
07:46But from a competitive standpoint,
07:55to come back and take that exam.
07:58So, for me and what I think of Kyle and their brilliance,
08:01and the only guy, to be honest, I've seen Mike McDonald just dominate the Niners and guys were missing.
08:08No Mike Evans.
08:09I want to see early.
08:12Okay, because you're off to 4-0 and everybody's saying the right things and they deserve it.
08:17But, Will, I just, I got to believe Kyle's like, I get an early chance to show we've went to
08:23the lab and that gap is,
08:25goo, that gap is not what it was those two games, baby.
08:28I meet you in the middle.
08:29Okay.
08:30If the 49ers can't score more than 10 points, then, yeah, there's an issue.
08:36But you still get two more chapters possibly to address it.
08:38No, you do, but that's almost, I'm not saying, look, the outcome of the game is of the utmost importance,
08:43but what kind of a game did they lose?
08:46Did they lose 13-3 again?
08:47Are you suffocated?
08:48I got you.
08:49If they lose 13-3 again, then, yeah, that feels like a real problem.
08:54Why do you think McDonald just has Shanahan's number?
08:56I think that what he does defensively is exactly what Brock Purdy tries to avoid,
09:02which is, you know, Brock Purdy gets to the line and he looks and he goes,
09:06okay, I got you, linebacker.
09:08I got you, safety.
09:09I'm going to watch you and see what you do when I snap the ball.
09:12And he gets ready to snap it and the clock goes to six, it goes to five,
09:16and then they do a little bit of a last-minute shift or on the snap,
09:19they do things that he didn't otherwise expect.
09:23And so now that Brock Purdy, his keys, and we had Greg Cosell,
09:27and Greg Cosell's like, yeah, he's keying off the linebacker.
09:29He's keying off the safety.
09:30If the safety comes down, then he goes over the top.
09:33If the safety goes back, then he knows the middle's open.
09:35I think Seattle does such a good job of mixing it up,
09:40and maybe less so this year because they don't have the same personnel,
09:42but Mike McDonald does exactly what Shanahan does, but on the defensive side,
09:47which is, you know, Shanahan, you've got Juszczyk and Kittle and McCaffrey
09:51and Debo, and you break the huddle.
09:54Well, Debo's in the backfield, and now McCaffrey's in the slot,
09:56and then you shift McCaffrey back in, and Debo goes there,
10:00and here comes Kittle.
10:01It's like, wait, what are they doing?
10:02I think Seattle does the same thing on defense.
10:04Damn.
10:05I can't wait for Cosell to break down what Denver did
10:08to hold them to three points in the first half.
10:11Like, I can't wait because Denver did.
10:13That was impressive.
10:14They also now, I mean, Seattle wins the Super Bowl.
10:18That means a lot of people spent all summer trying to unlock some keys,
10:22and they've given up a lot more points so far this year,
10:26and Dib's point, too.
10:27This is completely different personnel.
10:30You weren't like, you didn't go to Seattle or play Seattle even here last year
10:34with Mike Evans over there and Debo Samuel over here,
10:38and, you know, the last time they went there,
10:40obviously, it was the game where George Kittle got hurt.
10:42But, so, like, I—
10:45Offensive line playing way better.
10:46Yeah, it's different.
10:48It's different.
10:49You would hope—you would hope that.
10:50I still think it's not going to be a high-scoring game.
10:52Yeah.
10:53I'm with you.
10:54Divisional game, bloodbath, teams don't like each other.
10:58It'll be physical.
10:59What should the expectations be for Mike Hill-Williams?
11:02Because he seems like a first-round pick that we've kind of forgotten about.
11:05He was really good against the run.
11:08Raw is a pass rusher.
11:09He may come back on Sunday.
11:11He's going to practice again this week.
11:13I mean, they could use a boost on that defensive line.
11:15Again, good against the run.
11:16And we know Seattle wants to run the football.
11:18What should our expectations be for Mike Hill-Williams?
11:21Because he's been kind of forgotten about, Divis.
11:23Yeah, I think we should wait until probably November because, you know,
11:26when you come back off an ACL, even though you rehab,
11:29it's going to take more than just like, okay, now you're ready to go.
11:32I do think that you have to give him a little bit of grace.
11:34And think about Nick Bosa, where Nick Bosa was great through, what, two games
11:39and then the calf.
11:40And so now he has to go back on the sideline.
11:42So I think with Mike Hill-Williams, it's going to be a little bit more of a slow play,
11:48like pitch count wise.
11:49And you get after the bye.
11:50And then, okay, Mike Hill, now let's go ahead and ramp you up
11:52and see what you have to offer.
11:54And so that, for me, becomes more of a fair way to look at a young player,
11:58a guy who played, what, six or seven games last year as a rook.
12:02And look, I mean, he was looking good.
12:04He was getting better and better and better.
12:06And then it's a boom ACL.
12:07So I think, for me, I'm looking at November as opposed to this Sunday.
12:13Grandy, 2 o'clock, legal.
12:15We got to do the legal.
12:17Never do it.
12:18You're interrupting conversations, Grandy, man.
12:20I got it in your ear, and that's it.
12:222 o'clock.
12:23I'm listening to Divers, man.
12:25He's breaking it down.
12:26He's on the roll right now.
12:27All right?
12:29Grandy, taskmaster.
12:31I know how to tell time.
12:32Time for the legal.
12:33Yeah, Chris Mullen is furious with what you just said.
12:34I know how to tell time.
12:35Yeah, you're on Mully's hit list.
12:37He checked you, too.
12:38We got him straight for a post-game show.
12:40Nacho Grande, the legal.
12:42And you guys got a big guess at three.
12:44Yeah, you guys do.
12:45Natalie Nicasse.
12:47Should I do the guess?
12:48Should I do the legal now?
12:49Yeah, make me feel at home and squint and look over here
12:52at the sign.
12:54Listen to 95.7 The Game, KGMZ, FM, and HG1 San Francisco
13:00and Odyssey Sports Station.
13:02Always live on the free Odyssey app,
13:03and now broadcasting from the Laughing Monk Studios.
13:06That was a good acting job.
13:07That's a dead nine.
13:08That was not hard for you at all.
13:09No, it wasn't.
13:10You made it feel like it was hard,
13:12so the old priest over here felt good about himself.
13:15Not to brag, but Dr. Craig Bendy, three years ago,
13:18Toby, I had 2010 on my left eye, 2020 on my right eye.
13:21Yeah.
13:22Maybe he'll sponsor the text line one day.
13:24Sure, for now.
13:24I mean, coming up in 15 years, you'll be squinting like the rest of us.
13:28I do think about the Seattle game in terms of what they are facing.
13:33So Seattle, after they host the Diners, they've got a sharp week.
13:36Shout out, Loneal, at Denver on Thursday.
13:39So that's a tough game for Seattle.
13:41So you might be looking at this one as not a must win,
13:44but like of the two games, like this one's probably bigger for Seattle
13:49than the Denver game.
13:50But no, Patrick, it's a tan for Denver probably in that Thursday night game, right?
13:53Well, I'll say this about Seattle.
13:55We ran this by Ross Tucker.
13:57And a year ago, I think I told you, I know I told you,
14:00running backs matter, and I was mad about the pay scale.
14:04And Seattle, I know is euphoria.
14:06Shout out HBO.
14:07But the bottom line is, how could you just take for granted
14:11Kenneth Walker III, who is changing the fortune, I believe,
14:16of Patrick Mahomes and that Kansas City offense.
14:19And I can't wait to see the Niners not have to worry about Kenneth Walker III.
14:25Like, I think Seattle is kicking themselves like we let a guy get away.
14:29He could be the MVP.
14:30I know we give them the quarterbacks.
14:32You see the way he's running the ball in Kansas City?
14:34No, he should be in the conversation.
14:36He won't be because he's a running back.
14:38But right now, he looks like he might be Seattle's DeForest Buckner,
14:42which is, and teams do this.
14:44You get to a certain number, and you're like,
14:46All right, we'll go get Javon Kinlaw instead.
14:49And then a couple, you get halfway through the year,
14:53and they're like, oops, Janarian Price is on IR.
14:57How about if we sign Joe Mixon?
14:59Oops, turns out he's still not passing physicals,
15:03and you end up with the Packers' third string running back
15:05as your starter, because Charbonnet is not ready to go.
15:09Yeah, I think that it's not even just regret the move.
15:12Do you regret having him be a timeshare his entire time there?
15:17The dude is a one, man.
15:20He's awesome.
15:21He's running for KC, man.
15:23He is, and we were talking about this yesterday.
15:25Like, running backs who win the MVP,
15:27the last one to do it was AD, Adrian Peterson.
15:31Oh, man, all day.
15:31He had a 2,000-yard-plus year, and he had an historic year.
15:37So if K9 wants to go ahead and get that, they have to be, I don't know, 15-2,
15:43and he has to go for 2,000-plus.
15:45But beyond that, it's a quarterback award.
15:47He's got two games over 170-plus rushing guys.
15:50That's just 300-yard games.
15:52I'm watching it, man.
15:52I mean, he is running hard.
15:54Meanwhile, Saquon Barkley on the screen week-to-week with a hamstring injury.
15:57Oh, you think?
15:58Yeah.
15:58Yes.
15:59He's not playing.
16:00He's not playing.
16:02Is he going to travel to London?
16:03I don't even think he's going to go to London.
16:04He's going to Alaska on that season.
16:07Doc Child tweeted right after that injury.
16:10They took him off, and he goes, won't need his passport either.
16:12No.
16:13Keep that at home.
16:14Go ahead and just stay home and watch this one.
16:16He will not get a stamp on the passport.
16:18We were having some fun, and Willard, you text us about most surprising teams,
16:22most disappointing teams.
16:23That was fun listening.
16:24Coaches.
16:25You know, who are we sleeping on?
16:27Who are we overrating?
16:29Willard got to give his answer for most.
16:31The one he disappointed in.
16:33He can't stand it.
16:33We know that.
16:34Not only can I not stand it, but think about it.
16:36You actually opened the door for this in a certain way of answering the question.
16:40Most disappointing.
16:42Not worst, but what's most disappointing?
16:44If you're going to spend all August saying that this is the greatest Super Bowl favorite
16:48that we can remember in a decade, and then you're going to open up the season
16:53by admitting that you screwed up game one.
16:56Maybe.
16:57You blow a 16-point lead in game three.
17:02Game four, you come out, and you owe Nick Sirianni muffins for the fact that you won that game.
17:08Well, we won the game.
17:09And you bailed on a press conference because you're too pissed off to handle it?
17:14I had things to do.
17:14Stop it.
17:15Like, he's having a very disappointing start to the year.
17:19I disagree with that.
17:19I mean, we're two games back.
17:20And honestly, if you look at it, we're one game back in Seattle.
17:22And yeah, the whole thing in Australia was a little bit of a miscalculation by me.
17:26It was a miscalculation sensation.
17:27And I love Tim Roy, so that's a buck.
17:29And if you look beyond that, and, you know, Philadelphia is Philadelphia.
17:32And Sirianni and Big Dom, I mean, they didn't know what they were doing.
17:35And so we kept fighting.
17:37We kept our chin forward and our nose up and our eyes open.
17:39And we kept our ears wax-free.
17:41And, you know, we had gel in our hair and the rest of it.
17:43And so we played all 60 minutes.
17:45And we're two and two.
17:45So you can say what you want, Mick Willard.
17:47But, you know, we're right there.
17:49I will say that.
17:50That's pretty damn good.
17:51You're having a disappointing year.
17:53I disagree.
17:54Okay.
17:55We're two and two.
17:56Yeah, two and two is the disappointing year, by the way.
17:59Well, I mean.
17:59And you're on 60 minutes.
18:00It wasn't really 60 minutes.
18:02My whole piece is about 15 minutes.
18:03So, honestly, they should change the name of it to 15 minutes because there are multiple segments.
18:07But, I mean, honestly, if you look at it,
18:09we can win our next 13 games and be 15-2.
18:12And then what?
18:12Then what would you guys say?
18:14That is good stuff, man.
18:16That is good stuff.
18:17Who are we sleeping on?
18:18Who's the most disappointing team?
18:19Three of the guys picked the Chargers.
18:21I get it.
18:22For disappointing, obviously.
18:24But I'm going with the Houston Texans.
18:26They had held that defense as the next.
18:29They were like the 0-2 Bucs coming into the season, right?
18:31I don't understand.
18:32Especially the way they ended the season.
18:33They've given up 36 points to Buffalo.
18:35Gave up 34 to Dallas.
18:37All right, 20 against Cincinnati.
18:38That's pretty good considering their offensive firepower.
18:41But 0-4 in Houston.
18:43Would this blow you away?
18:44The Houston Texans have given up the most points in the AFC.
18:47Yes.
18:48That defense was damn near perfect.
18:49I don't understand.
18:50It's not like they're not missing their people.
18:53I feel like you're the owner saying that to D'Amico.
18:55What's going on?
18:56I don't get it.
18:57Defensively, too.
18:57I don't get it.
18:58They've had a home.
18:59Like, three of their four games have been at home.
19:03Like, sure.
19:04You think his seat's hot, D'Amico?
19:05I don't think so yet.
19:07I think he can sustain one of these.
19:08It's early.
19:09They made the offs before two games.
19:11And their losses are to, like, they've played good teams.
19:13I'll give them that.
19:14But I don't get it.
19:15I don't get why they're giving up 35 and 40 in home games to anybody.
19:19My thing yesterday, and I don't know if we did this on the air,
19:22but, like, which former Shanahan assistant loses his job first?
19:27Is it Salah?
19:28Is it Ryan's?
19:29Or is it Mike McDaniel as the OC in L.A.?
19:32Well, this will be Salah's second before anybody's first.
19:35No, Mike's already lost one.
19:37And D'Amico's third year?
19:38Yeah.
19:39At least it could be fourth, actually.
19:41Well, they made the playoffs, though.
19:43Salah just got there.
19:45He's fine.
19:46Salah hasn't made a playoff.
19:48Well, he didn't make the playoffs.
19:49I mean, Mike McDaniel got the absolute worst thing to happen to him.
19:53The Vodacombs.
19:55Yeah.
19:56I heard that.
19:56Although a weird one.
19:57It's like a godfather with a kiss on frame.
19:59What if I told you I'm more disappointed with what he hasn't done
20:02for the young Thundercat in L.A. than his whole Miami stint?
20:07He was supposed to come fix Herbert or add to him.
20:10They look like a train wreck.
20:12Their offensive line, though, is completely decimated.
20:15And we need to stop giving Herbert the Thundercat moniker.
20:20He's not a Thundercat.
20:22He's a cat.
20:23He's a little cat.
20:24He's like a cat.
20:25Meow, meow.
20:25Meow, meow.
20:25Come in.
20:26He's a little meow, meow.
20:27Stop being a little cat.
20:28He's not a Thundercat.
20:30He's just not.
20:30I got you, man.
20:31Something doesn't fit there.
20:32Stop being a little cat.
20:33Somebody's not.
20:34Somebody's not vibing.
20:35I'm listening to Harbaugh, and I'm like, is he telling the truth?
20:38Well, okay, Harbaugh hiring Mike McDaniel.
20:42Could you find two people more different?
20:45First of all, one guy is like a forward-thinking, throw-the-ball downfield.
20:52I know he's a run-game coordinator as well.
20:54Harbaugh's three yards in a cloud of dust.
20:56McDaniel holds every press conference like it's stand-up comedy hour.
21:00And Jim has never smiled in his life, and when he does, it's weird and awkward.
21:03And he's known to be kind of a jerk and has seemingly been having aneurysms in the middle of interviews
21:10for the last two months.
21:12You ask him questions, and he freezes like a computer.
21:15I don't know.
21:16I don't know what the hell is.
21:18How did it happen?
21:19What about the video of them practicing handoffs?
21:22I watched that like 30 times.
21:25It's just.
21:26I don't.
21:27Right.
21:28I don't know what's happening.
21:29Is it pop order?
21:30Like we're practicing handoffs?
21:32Did you see that video?
21:34Oh, yeah.
21:34It was weird.
21:37Hey, Harbaugh, yeah.
21:38I don't know what's going on with the Chodges.
21:39Yeah.
21:40By the way, I thought Guru was going to bring up the brothers in the league.
21:44It's not doing too well.
21:45The black coaches have like a combine.
21:481-11.
21:49Is that so?
21:501-11?
21:51Do we consider it?
21:53Are we considering Robert Sala to be a brother?
21:55It would have been 1-15 if they had him out, but 1-11.
21:59Because Tom Bowles may be out of the way out in Tampa Bay.
22:02Man, I thought Todd's wasn't going to survive last year, but 1-11.
22:06By the way, Natalie DeCasse, 3 o'clock.
22:083 o'clock.
22:09Can I wait for that?
22:09She scared me the other night.
22:11They fainted.
22:13Yeah, exactly.
22:14No, that was scary.
22:15No, it's very scary.
22:16And the thing about Natalie, and we probably won't get too much into it because it's a health
22:21thing, but the thing that impressed me the most is, so she faints, and she gets up after
22:27whatever, seven seconds, and it takes her about 20 seconds, and everyone's concerned.
22:31And after 30 seconds, it's, where's the clipboard?
22:34Boom.
22:35Clipboard.
22:35I'm going to drop a play.
22:36I'm back.
22:37And if you look at her whole career, and I shared with our group an article that was
22:41written about 12 years ago about her journey, this woman is an absolute fighter.
22:49She's fought at every stop from high school to walking on at UCLA, multiple torn ACLs.
22:57You go to Europe to play.
22:58You end up coaching.
22:59You lose your gig.
23:00You coach somewhere else.
23:01You coach men.
23:02You coach women.
23:02You come back.
23:03She is an unbelievable lifer.
23:05I can't wait to talk to her.
23:06And that defense is her personality.
23:08That's how, like, they, that's hard to be on.
23:10She doesn't sleep.
23:11Okay.
23:12She doesn't want to go out.
23:13She doesn't want to do anything.
23:14The ultimate, ultimate gym rep.
23:16Yep.
23:16No doubt.
23:17When's Closell?
23:18Is that tomorrow?
23:19Tomorrow.
23:19Yeah.
23:19I can't wait.
23:20We'll do Sloreth at four and Natalie at three.
23:22That's a power hour.
23:23Stink.
23:24Oh, yeah.
23:24Stink.
23:24Yep.
23:25What does Stink think about this offensive line?
23:27He thinks very highly of everything going on with this team right now.
23:30Stink.
23:30He's always thought highly of everything Shanahan related.
23:33Man, it's true.
23:34Kyle's best day may be, I know it's early, but again, I was like, the window may be shut,
23:39but his best day may be upon him.
23:42Those O-linemen will fight you about whether the zero sacks is a quarterback stat or an O-line stat.
23:49Wow.
23:50I can't wait to hear that.
23:52By the way, Guru and I, we're sickos.
23:54We'll be locked in some Warriors preseason.
23:57And no, it's not the Lake of Checks.
23:59It's because there's a lot of chatter about the Doves.
24:01Just one preseason day.
24:02I want to hear body shaming.
24:05We're talking about Gaxle.
24:06No, that's on the Internet.
24:07I didn't say it.
24:09It came to me.
24:09I mean, I'm not one to talk, but that's the Internet.
24:12And then you get Gaxle and Ponce money and all this.
24:15It's strange.
24:15You actually did say it because I wouldn't even have known it.
24:19And then you said something about Draymond Green in a T-shirt.
24:21No, he was at the –
24:22Oh, yes.
24:23Yeah, that took off.
24:24That ain't me.
24:25I only knew about it because you told me about it.
24:28Yeah, because it came to me because the Internet's going crazy on it.
24:31What's your take, though, on whether this is just all too much too soon for Gaxle?
24:36Because I've been thinking about this, too.
24:38What's your take?
24:39My take is valid.
24:41It has nothing to do with the young man,
24:43but it's almost an indictment on what's around him or what's not around him.
24:48Like, we are like, dude, you've got to be the four-place hitter
24:50and 100 RBIs and 30 homers, and he might do it.
24:54But I'm just like, that's a lot of pressure.
24:56He's 24, which sounds like the new 34 in the NBA.
25:00But I just – what if I told you I'm uncomfortable?
25:03Like, that's too much on him.
25:05And there's a lot of pressure playing next to Steph, Draymond, Underski.
25:08There's going to be a dude you didn't see in college every night coming to shoot.
25:12Exactly.
25:13And it's almost like they're desperate for a young player to pop, too.
25:16Because Pods has been good.
25:18The rhetoric about Pods, like, he's been solid.
25:21Like, some of the dialogue about him is just stupid,
25:24especially when you look at his last six weeks last season.
25:26But the pressure on Gaxle to perform at a high level, being the pick.
25:31Like, this organization, they can't have another first-round pick fail.
25:35Not a lottery pick like this, because Pods wasn't in a lottery.
25:37Well, that's it.
25:38I think it's the first lottery pick in, what, five years?
25:41Oh, here we go.
25:41And so I think it feels like a new toy on Christmas,
25:46and everybody is so, so focused on it.
25:49That's not – the excitement about it doesn't get me.
25:52What gets me is the way the coaches and veteran players are fawning over
25:57how good he is and how thoughtful he is and smart he is and this, that, and the other.
26:02And I'm like, Jimmy Butler and Draymond Green do not teammate like this in the media.
26:09And that's what's – I'm like, wow.
26:11Interesting.
26:12Either he's amazing or, yeah, maybe there's a little desperation mixed in.
26:17You know what that would be, right?
26:18I do.
26:18I do.
26:19What would it be, Mark?
26:20It would be a desperation sensation.
26:22Don't make me wait for it.
26:23God, I wanted to make you work a little bit.
26:25We're just getting started.
26:26It's a Tuesday.
26:28Exactly.
26:28I love it, dudes.
26:28Don't look at me like that, man.
26:30I love you, man.
26:30Whatever.
26:31I didn't know you were fearful of deals.
26:33I did, dude.
26:33Who is it?
26:34He's going to be just looking like four different times.
26:35He's the Natalie Nicasse radio host.
26:38Yesterday he told me, welcome home.
26:39He's a bear cat.
26:40And then he comes in here as soon as the studio in the all-blacks jersey.
26:44I go out to the studio.
26:45I'm looking at Grady Savage.
26:46And dudes is just mugging me.
26:47He does that every day, Bonte.
26:48Act like he listens to the show.
26:50No, but when you said you gave him the family deal that you give all of us at the game
26:55house, I'm like, you did that for Diz.
26:57That's awesome.
26:58And then Diz wants mommy's number.
26:59Don't watch your free night up.
27:00Watch your free night up.
27:01Damn, Diz.
27:01He's still looking for the 10 digits.
27:03And you call me out for the all-blacks jersey?
27:07If I come in tomorrow with my all-whites jersey, then what?
27:11Exactly.
27:12That's not the clean white jersey.
27:13Come on.
27:13I'm going to say clean white jersey, Diz.
27:16That's what they call their soccer team.
27:18Yes, it's all-blacks.
27:19They're all-whites.
27:21Even though they're not all-white, whatever.
27:23I'm fired on 95.7 The Game.
27:26Have a good show, guys.
27:27Hey, it's Dan Dibbley.
