00:00You have to love this matchup
00:01I wrote a column earlier the saying that this arrived rivalries now alive and well and it's better for football for this
00:08Rivalry to be alive like this. And so let's go ahead and start, you know with the victory lap
00:12That's been the hot topic around John Gruden seemed a little annoyed with his question Andy Reid brought it up twice in his press conference
00:18We've got Max Crosby going on shows. We got Travis Kelsey going on shows talking about it
00:22So everybody's getting asked about it
00:24What is kind of the mood in Vegas around the victory lap because we know what everybody in Kansas City thinks we think oh
00:29This is their Super Bowl. Oh, that's nice and cute. And but what do people in Vegas think about the victory?
00:34Well, first of all people in Vegas understand it wasn't I mean, first of all, Andy Reid and John Gruden are not just friends
00:40They're close great friends. I mean, they have a lot of mutual respect. They're friends when they're not around football
00:47It had nothing to do with the Chiefs and nothing to do with with Andy Reid
00:52It had to do with the bus driver that made a lot of stupid comments
00:55And it was like fine now drive us around as we celebrate winning after your comments the Kansas City
01:01He that guy should be the Bartman
01:03you know the guy who messed up the clubs that guy should be the Bartman of
01:08Kansas City because that was totally directed at him
01:12That's why you didn't see it all over social media that the Raiders didn't put it all up over social media
01:18They didn't they didn't make a big deal about it because it was directed towards the bus driver
01:22The media did and I'm gonna say this though the mood in Vegas is okay
01:27We beat you the best team. No, I'm that you're not here in disrespect on your field
01:33If you don't want us taking victory laps, then don't lose
01:38Period and you know what? I'm gonna tell you as a media guy that covers this if the Chiefs win
01:43I hope they take a victory lap. Let's throw more gas on this thing. Well, let's have fun with it
01:49But here's the good news prior to this year. It hasn't been a rivalry
01:54Let's be honest. I mean Kansas City has owned the silver and black but those days are over now
02:00It's gonna be a battle. It's gonna be a war and I'm gonna tell you this much
02:05I don't think Kansas City is gonna be taking them for lightly this time. This is gonna be epic
02:11I think you're gonna see a lot of good things happening on this field and I don't care who's on
02:16COVID-19 and who's not on COVID-19 when the Chiefs and the Raiders get together, baby
02:22You throw out the records cuz it's pure
02:26Unadulterated football bedlam and you don't get to see this in the NFL that much you see it a lot in college
02:32But you don't see it in the NFL. This is what makes these kind of rivalries great
02:36And how awesome is it for the AFC West?
02:39All of the eyes of the world are on the AFC West and on the Death Star could have happened anywhere better than Vegas
02:46Maybe the home of heavyweight
