| 0:00.0 | Just a nonsense. Just a nonsense, my God. You know, Mike ever got up to a game and |
| 0:07.5 | maybe he could have some influence as well. Three o'clock hour, I wanted to touch upon |
| 0:13.9 | this yesterday, but it was so much slander of me and the 49ers as they got ambushed |
| 0:20.0 | at two o'clock because they were saying that I need to start brooding for the Lions. |
| 0:26.1 | I'm not your head, David. You were a part of this once again. I'm forgotten. Yeah, I was next |
| 0:31.9 | football season. It's gonna get interesting. Petty receipts. You're going to see Olympic |
| 0:39.7 | style pettiness for me next year. I'm already in the lab coming up with different things |

| 1:54.3 | team loses because you sound like a whiner. You sound like a loser. Oh, it's not the |
| 1:58.2 | official's fault. Play better. But I'm watching the the the chiefs and the Bengals. I don't |
