00:00Alrighty crossover time that means Willard and dibs in the house along with Steini and guru. What's up gentlemen? How are you?
00:06I gave you guys some love man. Oh, hello. Hello major love. I appreciate it what we did it
00:11I mean, we're just talking about the state of the Bay Area media
00:14Just I I love that you know, are we soft or hard or soft?
00:19Yeah, but I heard Randy Cross and he's like, yeah, there was two or three jerks
00:24That was four or five and there two or three now, too
00:26And I immediately had two or three names pop up which is pretty fun
00:31Weekly right there weekly Steve Kerr same family. You guys are like pitbulls. I
00:36appreciate trying to pry and get the answer and double back to get the answer because there's a fan and that's what I am when
00:43I listen to you guys. I'm like, you're you know going in you're pretty much not going to get the answer
00:48But I just want the guys and gals to one ask it and double back
00:53And I feel like you guys do that with the best of them trying to get it at a curve
00:57Not not saying anybody's got it dialed or right or whatever what I what I go for at least what what I think we we try
01:04For because when we get compared to I heard what you guys are doing you compared to Philadelphia for example, man
01:10I don't want to be Philadelphia. I'm not saying that's right either
01:13Yes, ask the questions that the the the viewer or the listener or the fans want that's our job
01:19But I don't think this like there's a very fine line there of like now we're getting we're attacking we're personal
01:26right, I don't look at the job of a media member as I'm here to like
01:32Hold your feet on the fire and hold you accountable. It's no dude. Just relax. Just ask the questions
01:38But I don't so like somewhere in between which is where most answers lie, right? Yeah somewhere for me
01:44Yeah, that's what I go for at least and it's just about how you ask
01:48I think more than anything and this is where you've always been really good as an interviewer because you'll ask the question Stiney and you
01:54you won't really
01:55color it as
01:57Aggressive or negative or positive or glowing?
02:00It's just a question and I've found that the quicker you just get to the question the better
02:05The question is and the more likely you're gonna get a good answer as opposed to a 45 second grandstand
02:11Followed by like a what do you think or do I have it, right?
02:15That's why we played the Jerry sound dibs and he's the GM Randy said go get the Home Depot 200 mirrors and look at yourself
02:22Loved it, but he's embarrassed. He's hurt and you're and you're the maestro. You've messed up
02:27You didn't add so to get mad at two radio hosts asking you a question about you not adding the offseason
02:34I think he made Sunday's
02:37Embarrassing score that not even be the lead now
02:40It's embarrassing because you are going off and mad at the world and equally embarrassing for me and even more
02:46embarrassing is Nick Sirianni trotting his kids up there as
02:51What are those things when you?
02:59Did you hear is I heard the apology when a she read the apology later in the day
03:04I didn't hear his explanation about do you want to hear it? Sure?
03:07Nick Sirianni
03:09Do you think it is appropriate to have children at a postgame press conference with you right there?
03:14there are limited opportunities to be able to
03:19You know be able to share these more. I love my I love my family with everything I have and
03:25And I want them to love this game the way I love this game because of what this game has done for me
03:30I like and so, you know
03:33What that was my only intention just like my intention is like my kids get to go play
03:38Get to co-play catch on the field after after we win
03:42And my only intention is ask, you know is after a win
03:47Being able to my kids love going up on that on that
03:50With that press conference with me and my only intention is to share a moment, you know after that share a moment
03:58Willard is I mean how many times has he brought his kids up onto the podium would be
04:04That would be my follow-up and we're big on follow-up questions now if the answer is 23, okay
04:09Maybe he just loves to do that like dream on green
04:12He has his kid out there all the time beautiful through thick and thin curry to exactly exactly
04:18She would be under the table and the whole thing if this is the first time that Nick Sirianni
04:23Brought his kids up onto the dais then he's a phony Willer before you go
04:28Yeah, it's a good dad because we all are or I try to be huh, you should have known when you did the gestures to
04:35the crowd
04:36Something has started and you participated in it
04:39So as a dad that should have been the press or the kids didn't accompany you
04:44So people wouldn't say you were running from the small this didn't just start on in that game
04:50You know, Nick Sirianni is well aware that he gets talked about on Philly Sports Radio every single week right now
04:56People are mad people are uncomfortable. They don't like the way this looks. They don't like the way he looks
05:02You know the way he kind of carries on on the sideline. It's bothering people right now
05:07Hmm, and especially in a city like Philadelphia. Yeah, you're definitely aware that you're you're you're gonna answer to this
05:14And so in a game that even though you won you're getting booed
05:17You're getting into a confrontation with fans. The timing as dibs puts out is is not great. I have a different follow-up though
05:26My follow-up would have been so Nick what you're telling us is
05:30you want to turn your kids on to the game of football to the sport and
05:35Of all the things that you have access to as the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles
05:43You think that the way the kids are gonna fall in love with the game is?
05:48To bring him to a press conference
05:51He referenced something else though, too. He said
05:54Also
05:55Throwing the ball. Yeah on the field because after a game that would have been my question. I'm like like that's cool
06:01Hey kids. No, you've got your run of the link, right? Do you want to go daddy? Bring us to the press conference?
06:07No, go go meet Jalen Hurts
06:11Go say let AJ Brown sign your jersey. Don't take a picture with that gigantic
06:16Eagle mascot that's undoubtedly flapping around throughout the stadium go get beat up by a fan be a real
06:24Go boo, Santa Claus. Yeah
06:27The spike askin are you kidding the kids are seven five and two and being a father of a two-year-old
06:34I can tell you that she's not absorbing any of this
06:38When did you fall in love with football? It was a press conference
06:43When daddy was under fire and I was there for him
06:46It was when that smelly man started asking him about the fans. I got an idea though. I don't get it
06:52I got an idea for tomorrow dibs. Talk to me. Why don't you uh,
06:57Why don't you bring Milo on the show when you bring Greg Cosell on?
07:04We're live at the mad
07:06Quick you got we got to get into that too. This is incredible. Yeah
07:13Come about I'm sort of just well, that's just too much. No, there's a colleague a former colleague named Stan Bunger
07:20Okay, the morning anchor on CBS Stan wrote a book on John Madden. It's not only on John Madden
07:27It's about mornings with Madden cuz John Madden would come on every day in the morning and he did it for 30 plus years
07:33Every day, I never know what every day
07:40I used to work on the station when I started in the business
07:451997 I was the production assistant and then I became on the
07:48Editors desk and one of the jobs is to call John Madden. Sure. So you call him and he's
07:545 John is Dan
07:56Yes, you ready to go. Yes
07:58Give me a minute, you know
07:58and he's in the Madden Cruiser and he's Lord knows where and he would do it with Al Hart rest in peace one of the
08:05legendary anchors in this country and then Stan Bunger took the job and he continued that relationship and so Stan has written a book and
08:13We are celebrating John's life and the book and we're doing it tomorrow at the Madden compound at the compound
08:21Phenomenal like I'm just what he made. I'll tell you all fair. I'm not
08:27Part of my stick. Yeah, I don't count pock my little stick. Yeah, I do
08:33I like Willard's guess of a hundred because I'll tell you why oh my gosh
08:39Because my first response would be oh, I'll bet it's more than that
08:43But you know what sometimes guys like that, especially back in the day and just give me a hundred
08:49It's 30 years ago. It's it's every day. There's no
08:55$1,000
08:59And then they do Madden replay later because you know, they do sports at 15 and 45 and our friend
09:04Steven Langford now does the the morning sports?
09:07Okay
09:07Ever since Stan and Steve Bittker who was the other legend in mornings here on KCBS when they both retired
09:15Then you know, John was kind of retiring from the bit anyway, and then he of course passed but it was it was great
09:21Especially with Stan and Al Hart because neither one of them was really that much of a diehard sports guy
09:28So we would always stray into other things like, you know, turduckens and other lifestyle things
09:33It was just fascinating conversation. So you'll be around all that
09:37You'll cat. Oh my god purposely sort of like held it off over here on the side because hey
09:43I don't know what to expect and be it's just like man
09:47I don't even know if it really feels real, you know, like that we that we get to go
09:51It's like it's his studio man. It's his studio, you know
09:54And so it'd be cool for me, especially because I coached two of his grandsons at Bishop O'Dowd
10:00I started the boys volleyball program and Jesse and Aiden Madden
10:05John's grandkids were at O'Dowd and they both came out and played for me. So I'm hoping
10:10Both. Oh, yeah
10:12Aiden is about 6'4 and Jesse was a quarterback at O'Dowd about 6'2, 6'3 and just delightful young man
10:19That's awesome. They might be in college now. Well, they should be in college
10:22So, I don't know if I'm gonna see him, but I look forward to seeing Mike John's son and I believe Debbie Mike's daughter
10:27I hope I got that right and so got into a fight somewhere and
10:31We said you can't tell the story of was it Major League Baseball the NBA with said player, but I'll say this
10:37I bring that up because you can't tell the story of the NFL without John Madden on and behind the mic
10:44And you can't tell the the history of video
10:50If you want to do the Mount Rushmore of all-time video game Madden, come on now you got pong
10:58Atari
10:59No, we've done all of our conversations through the years about Steph Curry in terms of like like almost like a Q rating
11:06Is he the most beloved forget like if it's best or whatever?
11:09But like is he just the the most 100% Q rating athlete in the history of the Bay Area?
11:16Could you take that to Madden in the NFL? Mike is he the most popular figure in the history of the league?
11:23Mike well, give me give me somebody who would battle that. Well, I'm gonna ask you. Okay something on the other side
11:29You're listening to 95 7 the game KGM Z FM and HD 1, San Francisco
11:33Always live on the free odyssey app twitching YouTube powered by first NorCal Credit Union
11:37I would I think John Madden probably has a place on
11:41the all-time
11:44NFL Mount Rushmore. Yeah
11:47All sectors
11:49Everything, you know, if you think Al David like Madden, I think is probably in there
11:53That's incredible. And then the game is like a Jordan is still with this
11:58Shoes to Michael, you know that
12:01Man exactly came out 91. Well, it's still go. That's a great parallel shoes to Michael
12:07You know
12:09Like the best you the best out of the league
12:13marketing
12:14Whatever project. Yeah, absolutely
12:17Cal Poly San Luis Obispo
12:21My guy you guys would be a chase too for open it. Yes. Yes
12:27Yeah, that's a couple weeks away still yeah
12:29My idea was that we would do the show and just stay the night and just be there to live there because we're doing they
12:35Have back-to-back games and I think we're doing back-to-back shows down there at Chase and we're gonna head each other
12:40So then we have to go into concussion
12:43Put a blue tent right over our heads right in the middle of the show. Yeah, we'll just sleep in it
12:47Don't do the next show again the next day. I'm in man. Are you going in a costume?
12:52Are you gonna dress up as a warrior? No, it's today. Come on. Do you need two days before Halloween, right?
12:58Which warrior do you want to dress up as mark? I won't be dressing up. Do you know why why I'm an adult?
13:07No way Willard dresses up Oh
13:09For sure
13:12Yeah, there's no doubt they take it he knows Gabe Kapler two years ago
13:16Show you I did a whole show with readers on I couldn't even see dibs. He was a blurry rumor across the room. Yeah
13:25Going as this year and I haven't decided yet. I like to wait for the last minute
13:29Who you coming to ask Donnie radio? I would like to go as Dante DiVincenzo. That was my
13:35How would you pull that off I don't know you'd have to get a slightly orange ish blondish tight wig
13:42yeah, and
13:44Some minor freckling and probably an increased attitude. Yeah. Yeah
13:50What was that well clearly there's some feelings from New York, so was he insinuating Brunson's dad got him up out of town
13:58Um
13:59Why did he say you I think it it started with his role
14:03Do we all remember Dante was not eligible for postseason awards despite his play?
14:10Because he didn't have enough minutes
14:13even though he was never hurt like he had to play you had to play more minutes and
14:18Dante was phenomenal last year with the Knicks
14:21But he was kind of like almost a steroid version of Moses Moody is here where it was always like why is he not
14:28Playing even more right and so then you with all your Villanova buddies you get
14:35Man, and I think that he's thinking Wow got held down there Wow and so that started
14:41He started John with the coaches a little bit Brunson's dad though
14:51Conveyed
14:56What he had to say all the online lip readers that was the easiest one
15:00We're gonna see it. I was like no they've got it. You can really see exactly what he's saying
15:04He's a good player to really good
15:09It'd be a problem I think
15:12Yeah, they got tougher Minnesota those two guys as opposed to Carl Anthony towns now
15:17There were a bunch of trades, and I asked Donnie. Would you give two number two number ones for I'm just though
15:22I know there's a salad get Crosby
15:26Come on man him and Bosa for years
15:34But you're talking about two ones that would likely be 25 or later probably oh
15:39Yeah, and and the likelihood you hit and get a max. I mean does it talent like that
15:44Yeah, I think I think so you got to be called
15:47I don't know. I mean or any other position like you said the salary is an
15:53Issue I don't even know what what's Max's contract well
15:56Did he get he got a raise out of nowhere because they had room under the salary cap?
16:01I want to say before the start of the year. Yeah, they haven't out after this year and the dead caps only 10 million
16:06Oh, so the contract
16:09The contract is somewhat favorable to where you could although I would imagine the player. I think he's a dog
16:15He's absolutely a dog, but I yeah
16:17I don't think that if I'm the Raiders, and it's one thing to like punt on your receiver
16:23It's another thing to punt on your cornerstone player, and that's why Evan was like miles Garrett ain't going nowhere
16:28He's not that big of a number now that we know what?
16:33Rushes are making
16:35Do man like if you if you picked him up beyond this year the next two years after that
16:4122 and 18 oh man, that's a bargain
16:46Don't take place
16:4898 I'm with you did yeah, I don't think I don't think the Raiders are okay
16:52Do I cross me so if you're a team?
16:54Trying to be good, and I'm just gonna assume that all 32 try to be good although the jury's still out on some
17:00You want a left tackle a quarterback and an edge rusher those are the big three in football the Raiders don't have a quarterback
17:06I don't believe they have a real anchor left tackle
17:10But they have an edge so you don't want to give up your only piece of the three the Niners have a quarterback
17:16They've got a left tackle. He's getting older, and they've got an edge
17:20So it's why the Niners always can consider themselves to be pretty good
17:24Then you throw in
17:25Elite Hall of Fame tight end and elite Hall of Fame linebacker and the rest of it and all of a sudden you're cooking every
17:31Year, then it feels like the left tackle quarterback and edge rusher are like you want to be solid
17:39Defensively up the middle in baseball it's similar
17:42I would argue that this is more important than that you're talking about catcher shortstop center fielder
17:48Yeah, and you know you could look at the Giants and say you have a catcher good defensively
17:54your shortstop is
17:56TBD and your center fielder is
17:58Hopefully gonna be better when he gets healthy, so that's a fair way to look at it
18:03But there's more to it than that you guys yeah, go ahead. Yeah, Danny. Yeah, you threw me off
18:12You guys watch what you watch last night that you watch the Bills or the baseball oh the Bills
18:18Yes, I'm fan
18:21Action on it some regular action on it, and and I was close enough to taste everything and got nothing
18:28Oh, it was one of those nights
18:32Costco and the samples you get up there
18:34It's like yeah, it's gonna be 12 more minutes for the flatbread you know which curry was in a Costco
18:38I'd love did you see that which one I want to say Redwood City. They all look exactly the same, but it was
18:45Interior picture I saw the video I you know I'll actually slightly different in layout. I'll give you my
18:54Like a camera like I don't know they looks like Costco in there
18:58I don't know which one
18:59But you want to know you brought it up twice now
19:01Goo and you know what I thought of when I saw that I felt almost not that people are gonna get mad if I use
19:06that word oh, I I I do not find that to be
19:12alluring
19:13That if follow me staff at a cause that's what no if I were Steph like I don't want that life
19:20We're like I'm walking down. Oh, yeah
19:26I got you and everywhere. I go there are at least eight or maybe 80 people just like what?
19:35Netflix LeBron talks about yeah, I made a million, but I can't go to the movie
19:40I can't go get in the way. He said it hit me to where I felt like I'm lucky
19:45I'll take the money look at the way the people
19:48Oh, it's almost like if you're Steph
19:50What are you doing that moment because they can't just you got the movie theater would know like you run out of energy
19:57So he has to look off into the distance as if these are people who are a foot from him
20:02Is it following
20:06Into the distance as if you're a dancer
20:10I'm like, this is just did you weird and did you catch goo? I would not follow anybody in a store
20:17Unless it was a kid hitting the buzzer
20:24Something's going on with goose pants
20:26I had to make sure the jeans didn't fall off
20:29That's incredible. No, that's anyway. That was just where my brain went. I was like what an awkward
20:35There's a sweet spot for level of celebrity and for me
20:40The sweet spot is you're famous enough to where people will buy you drinks
20:44You'll get free golf, but in general you're left alone Wow, man
20:48I think about our good friend Sal Castaneda little too much. It's close though
20:53Like Sal with that big beautiful head and 30 years in the market when he walks around
20:58People like there's that traffic guy or they know him by name and so there's that guy. There's that guy
21:04So he might be a little bit too famous, but I kind of like where we are, you know, maybe once a week
21:13Thank you somebody at the Eric if you're listening, oh, I met Eric at the Joe Coy show on
21:20On
21:22And he very very clearly twice wanted me to say hello to you. Oh cool to you. Nice. Yes
21:28Yeah, make sure you say hi to dibs for me. So from Eric. Hello dibs
21:34Thank you, Eric. I wish I was out of the show and you and I could have oh, yeah, we could have spent time
21:40Today's show but tomorrow it would be maddened spot like seriously. Does he use profanity Joe? Yeah. Oh god
21:47You haven't said yes, and that's your second or third time going to second time second time he got drunk
21:53Yeah
21:54One of his things was to like bring people up toward the stage and then he just takes their drink and then drinks it with
21:59Him and then he replenishes it. He's got a guy who just goes and brings like if I take one you're gonna get two
22:04So right, I mean he was having so much fun that I think cuz it like halfway through I'm like Joe. I was on like Joe
22:17And the show it got yeah, he got cut right in front of us and Eddie Griffin I was like
22:25But he still put on a good show he had to be late. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Your guy was drunk at the Jason Barrett roast
22:35Stiney killed that night. Yeah, it was like Stiney at a summit. Oh, yeah, he was great. Yeah
22:43I believe his opening line was none of you people matter
22:50Totally
22:52What's the focus today? Do you guys?
22:55Like before they go, you know what? Yeah, like we will do that, but it's funny when the bags on the shoulder well
23:02Let's just go because when you know, you're right. Listen to me now
23:06When you start like just asking really odd
23:11Random meandering question Wow Willard knows like it sounds like you're just trying to fill for three minutes because you don't want to leave until
23:19That's all
23:21Why don't you just look at us and be like give me this sentence
23:27Fantasy story transaction liar come on your show. Ah, maybe
23:32We did it on the air yesterday
23:35It's awkward when teammates go at each other. It was almost
23:41We'll tell it on our show offended by you Grandy, but I already knew that Randy's a monster and but I'm offended that the
23:49Whole room didn't know that I was on it. It's not
23:54I appreciate you, but I'm not feeling appreciated. I really do. Thank you, and I texted you that like
24:00Thank you for looking out for me
24:01but at the same time I'm like that a room full of sports media people were like
24:07We better tell Willard that something bad is about to happen his team
24:10I was like you don't think I'm one of those
24:12People you think I'm one of the fantasy people that you need to text you were under the weather
24:17Had you just been on the day?
24:22Out there no the anesthesia had worn off we were good tell us the question so he can go home
24:27I just can't handle the anticipation. It's not even questions to fill in the blank. All right
24:32the Niners are favored this weekend because
24:37Wow
24:41They're at home
24:42Okay, because I think the odds makers probably put
24:48Something into it like the game means more to the Niners, okay?
24:54That's about it
24:59Yeah, this is the ugly to them the powers to be five and oh and that's like you know what
25:06You gotta pay. I feel like the Chiefs are due to lose a game, and this would be the week
25:10Okay
25:10I remember the game where McCaffrey first came one of them or and Kansas City came here in the screenplay
25:15Andy Reid so creative man like that scares me for the night
25:19Oh, we'll get into it cuz I just poured over the New Orleans tape and I got some notes
25:24I'm gonna get it out
25:26I'm gonna get it out before Cosell comes on on Thursday all right and well
25:30That'll be more a lot of talk about Rashid Shaheed. I gotta believe if we're talking Saints
25:35Shaheed had the one catch but
25:37Return a punt for a touchdown to didn't he or that was last week. That was last week last week. Yeah, all right
25:42Well you guys carry on on 95 7 the game. Thanks tiny
