This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed Human.

And now, Move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks.

What's up, everybody? Welcome to Move the Sticks. DJ Buck with you. Buck. What is going on,

man? Not, man. Look, I'm just sitting here saying, like, you don't have the normal energy that you have when you pop on the pot. I want to make sure everything is good. I know, like, you've been going back and forth, like Padres up, Padres down, and I just want to make sure that that doesn't... Oh, we are right. We're right where we want to be, man. Okay, I just want to make sure you're good. I think we've got 29 games left. We've got seven with the Rockies and three with the White Sox. If you don't follow baseball, they stink. So we got a good shot. Dodgers were there within range here. I think there are two games. But worst case scenario, we're the four or the five. We're going to beat the Cubs. We're not losing to the Cubs in the playoffs. Come on. And then, and then we go from there. But forget baseball, Buck. We've got college football tonight, man. So crazy. Double-heder, I think. I know Cincinnati's playing Nebraska. A bunch of games.

Yeah.

Like, I guess an error hit.

Like, that's a big deal. Great. And then there's some other games. Like, yeah, I mean, it's here. And it's so crazy that it's here because we talk about college football for so long. And then this weekend, they're serving up some good ones when it comes to those games that we like to see best on best.

Yeah, no, there's a there's a boatload of them.

And we're going to get to what we're looking forward to. Maybe some individual players will have an eye on the other game, by the way, Boise, South Florida tonight, Boise number 25. So that's a good part of the doubleheader. tonight Friday we've got my son's school, Baylor, welcome in Auburn, which will be a fun Friday night contest.

We've got a Saturday, full slates.

We got some great matchup on Sunday plus Monday.

Like, we are loaded for football this weekend, college football wise.

But NFL-wise, a couple things I wanted to get to before we get there. And I wanted to start with the extension for Kyle Hamilton, safety with the Baltimore Ravens. And I thought it would be interesting if we kind of went back. Do you remember the conversations on him when he was coming out of the draft? Yeah. I mean, like, so here's the thing. There was a conversation that was had at the end of the football season where everyone, I mean, it was kind of universal. Everyone loved him as a football player. Talked about his versatility. He could be in the box, deep middle, what he brought to the table. Conversation changed after he worked out. Combine, numbers, all of that other stuff. He falls, even though I think,

DJ, I think you may have had him rated as your second or third best player. He was up there.

Yeah, I'm trying to find him. And we talked about how good of a player he was. He drops,

I think he's taking 14th, and then he shows up and shows out for the Baltimore Ravens,

just like the player that he was in Notre Dame. And I think it's taking 14th. And then he shows up and shows out for the Baltimore Ravens, just like the player that he was in Notre Dame.

And I think it's a lesson for Scouts.

And we always talk about this.

There's a time and a place for the numbers and the physical attributes in those things.

But the tape is a player's DNA.

The tape reveals who he really, really is.
