This is the Don Han, that Rosenberg podcast.
That sounds like heaven to me!
Listen live, weekday afternoon, starting at three on E-80 ESPN, the ESPN New York app,
and your smart speakers.
At first I thought, oh, there it is, he got it.
Oh, oh.
And this is a good one.
One of those songs, right?
It itself isn't that memorable, but the beat is so memorable.
And I have to say, you guys remember, you guys, of course, remember the great Robin Lundberg,
who used to be on our air see on ESPN.
Robin known, known for a hot tick.
Oh, I saw you do this.
And this was, yesterday, I was moving around yesterday, Jacob.
There was a one's got to go.
Not did it say which one.
There was a one's got to go that genius did.
One producer's got to go.
Dre,
Ferrell,
Kanye,
or Timberland.
And Robin Lundberg, God bless him.
In the most hot, takey thing I think imaginable responded, Dr. Dre.
Oh, no.
I was like, I know what you're doing.
I love you.
I know what you're doing.
It cannot be Dre.
It simply cannot do it.
He had a response to me of what his logic was.
Like, he wasn't talking about full bodies of work or something,
but more like tracks they'd done or something.
Okay.
But still, I'm like, but you can't remove.
You just can't remove.
Because how much influence he has from NWA to, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's too much.
He didn't have to maverick.
He did all of doggy stuff.
That's all I, I just, I can't.
You can't.
You can't.
For me, it's either, it's either Kanye or Ferrell.
Like that.
Oh, really?
To me, to me, it would be Timberland.
It's crazy.
Because I, it's probably like the late 90s with Timberland and like Jay Z,
that I was like all in and I don't know if I could like just flat out just take it.
Well, listen, I don't want to take any of them out.
This is, this is how one's got to go works.
You have to get one out.
Yeah, I probably go for real.
Just be, just be real.
Yeah, just based off because Kanye producing was, especially that late 90s,
early 2000s from like the young dipset to Jay Z and stuff like that.
I can't, I can't turn my back on that.
I understand you.
But, but Ferrell is.
All those in backpats.
Come on.
It's, but Ferrell's got too much.
I'm sorry.
Uh, that test has been a whole for a long time.
Let's go to Tessa.
Hey, Tessa.
Thank you.
Thanks for taking my call.
I appreciate it.
Of course.
Thank you.
Two comments.
Um, one of our bridges and one about the WBC.
So, where bridges, you know, everybody knows I'm not a Nick's fan, but everybody knows
I'm a maniac as a sports fan, and I play it ball.
So, I do enjoy watching the Nick's.
Do you think is a chance maybe he is injured, but just holding it close to the chest?
And what I mean, but I had it that like maybe he just doesn't want to say anything
because I even get frustrated looking at him play some time.
And I'm not even a fan because I feel like if he was hiding in the injury,
well, how would he want to say that?
Because then at least maybe Nick left to look at him like, well, he's trying to swing forward.
You know, this end the third.
Or Peter could have just be maybe a mental block.
Maybe it's not really don't want to be here anymore, but he know he's locked in here at this day.
Because, you know, he's got the extension.
Like, I don't know what it is, but it definitely is something going on.
And it could be an injury, and it could be maybe a combination of he really don't want to be here.
Maybe it is too much for him.
Maybe the media, the bright light, but he definitely doesn't play like how.
Brunch and play, heart plays, and even when cat, you know, plays, I hate to go to play,
he just looks like the odd man out.
Like he looks like the peg that's not going to fit in the puzzle piece.
You know what I mean?
Like he just looks, I don't know.
I see what you're saying.
I feel bad for the fans.
No, I feel you 100% test.
So test how you feel and real quick.
Quick one.
I know this is not easy for you and it's about the giants.
How are you feeling leading towards the draft right now?
Listen, I'm actually excited because in my mind, like, you know, the clip you played earlier,
I'm like, oh, my God.
Who are we going to pick down?
Styles, like, I'm actually excited and I think we're going in with a good,
because I know Shane's not going to really have no control.
I guess that's what I could be absolutely just say.
I know it's going to be all harbor.
So I'm actually really excited, Peter.
I'm just, I don't know, like, I'm just out of my mind right now.
And I'm just, I haven't been this happy Peter in years.
You know what I mean?
I just have not been this happy and just, I've been here.
Did you hear?
The last year I was.
You know what I mean?
Did you hear?
Did you hear?
Yesterday when I was waxing poetic about how exciting it could be for you to have a healthy
Malik neighbors with Jackson Dart.
Did you hear that yesterday?
Yes.
Yeah.
Make it short.
And I'm just like, you know, I want to call in laughing and joking.
And I want to call and excited.
I don't want to call in like a maniac and screaming.
I talk my lungs again.
I can't do it for another billion years.
Like, I can't do it.
No, I know.
It's hard.
Imagine if he is going to be healthy and just imagine it.
All you got to do is get some peace.
But to be honest with you, I do want to get in a lot out.
I really do because I feel like we need a strong number two, like a real strong number two.
Not just the pieces that we get to go in there.
You know what I mean?
We need because all they go do is just double delete.
That's all they got to do.
No, it's true.
And that's the one thing.
That's the one issue.
That's the call test.
So that's one of the main issues the giants have had.
It's just no depth that wide receiver over the last several years.

Let's go to David in the car. What's up, David?
Hey, how you doing?
Good man.
Good. So I'm going to zag on bridges.
Yes.
I think if you look at Genobly and Habla Check as guys who were capable of starting as a third option on good teams obviously,
they embrace the sixth man role.
And for the life of me, as far as long as bridges has been here, because he has a multi-tool player,
he can kind of do everything if he gets the chance to.
And I don't think as a starter, he ever gets the chance to do that.
So we have the previous car talking about a bad fit.
I think, and I don't know why anybody has not thought of this, why not have him be a sixth man and run the second unit?
Get his touches, get the usage weight rate up, get his confidence up.
And for the life of me, I just don't yet why that decision has never crossed anybody's mind for as long as he's been there.
It's a very simple, David. It's a very simple point.
And I have to imagine it's something that will be on the table at some point here.
That's just how this thing is supposed to go.
If you cannot figure out how to get someone to produce the way you want it,
it doesn't have to be that you take them on the bench.
By the way, this whole streak is playing, right? It's not starting.
It's games played.
So I don't see a world in which at some point, that's not going to happen,
where they don't start bringing Mikael Bridges in off the bench instead.
But it won't be tonight.
Jalen Brunson out tonight.
Alvarado starting in his place as Alan said before he left to go to the pregame.
We will get every call on the air.
1-800-919-3776.
Any topic you want in our last segment next to close things out.

We look so forward to that.

This is a prime Timberland production for sure.
He's got tons.
I mean, he's one of the greats of all time.
There's no question.
But if I was forced to choose,
I think I end up removing from those four,
which I'm sure would offend him,
but I don't want to remove any of them.
That's how that's how one's got to go work, right?
Have you guys watched the clip moving around
from Giloranus' show of Kenyan Martin going off on the guy who worked on the show?
I've recently leveraged into it during a break.
I didn't get to watch it because it's like a seven minute video.
But he is very compelling television though.
I'm not going to lie to you.
I'm super confused though,
because he had polished out Tim off-screen.
So I mean, if...
Well, no, so what he said,
what Kenyan Martin explained was,
apparently this guy who works on the show,
by the way, I'm not in on the Giloranus' universe
so I don't know, I guess Kenyan's a regular?
Yeah, he's a regular on the show.
Show him, like, I think Rashad,
Brandon Jennings, and Nick Young,
they're all regular on the show.
I mean, with the exception of...
I mean, those are all, listen,
Kenyan Martin's on one level.
Rashad, we get to, it's a random array.
All the respect.
With all the respect to Nick Young and Rashad McCans.
But anyways, basically,
this guy who works on the show,
was on another show,
and really said some nasty things
about Kenyan Martin having a speech impediment.
Now I'm curious.
Like, no, it's nasty too.
He plays it back.
It's nasty work, what he says.
It's like really mean.
Like, the audio worry about work.
The audio of what he actually said is Kenyan Martin plays it.
He says, and the guy's like,
yeah, but I already apologized to you for this.
And Kenyan Martin's like, yeah,
but when you came up and said,
sorry to me, I blew you off
because I didn't know what you were apologizing for.
Then I saw the video.
And then he goes further and is like,
and bro, did you or did you not have Thanksgiving
at my house twice?
Yeah, that's kind of it.
No, you cannot have...
Listen, I have said rough things
about people I'm friendly with
because the thing is about doing radio
and television.
You end up filling a lot of time
and like, you end up this week
on my, on Ibra Law Rosenberg.
I like Jack Harlow a lot.
I really do.
And I had to talk about Jack Harlow
because he did something dumb this week
and he got to talk about it.
Yeah, he was killing him all week.
But I try to be respectful about it.
It makes him jokes,
not say something directly nasty.
But also, you had Thanksgiving with the guy.
Anyways, if you get a chance in your board
and you want to spend seven minutes
watching a Gilorinus clip,
it's very compelling watching Kenyan Martin break this whole thing down.
Let's talk to the people
to wrap things up here.
We'll go to Arty first.
Arty, what's up, man?
Hey, thanks for taking a goal, Kai.
Go, guys.
You know, if we draft Simpson,
I want to see a play.
I don't want cards to win.
I think like, if you know,
you know, it's playing
and the Jets are not winning games and stuff,
do what they're trying to do.
Put in the, put in the guy that they drafted.
And see if he's the guy if he's not,
then you, then you know
you're going to have to get a quarterback
at 27.
But for me to get excited
that they got Simpson
and then having to sit out the whole year,
the reason why I worked for the Chiefs
is because they had Alex Smith
taking them all the way to the playoffs.
If Juno takes it to the playoffs,
if he's right,
but if he's losing game,
if we're like eliminated
in the middle of the year,
why am I going to see comments at once?
I want to see Simpson out there.
All right, thanks for taking a call.
All right, thanks, man.
I hear you.
I think that would be if they get Kai Simpson.
It would be all about the development of that kid
and can he play
with you benefiting him to play
or would not benefit him.
Now here's the one thing
I'll definitely agree with you one.
I do not need Carson Wentz on this team.
You went out and you got Juno Smith
to be your quarterback.
They've traded Justin Fields
as we know to Kansas City.
At this point,
if you want another quarterback to play
because you can't just have
the way things are these days in the NFL,
you are not going to have Juno Smith
and a rookie quarterback
as your only quarterbacks
because you don't know where the development
of in theory,
Ty Simpson would be.
But I also don't need it to be Carson Wentz.
I just don't.
I know there's a connection there.
God, do people overstay?
Man, the friend,
I can't do Carson Wentz.
The glad handing
and friend thing in the NFL
like, well, they work together once
and they're buddies.
So bring it, he sticks.
He was the quarterback of my team.
I know on Indy, he was okay.
When you look at the numbers
from a few years ago,
he was okay.
Carson Wentz is kind of weird
in the locker room.
He doesn't seem to like really last anywhere.
He's been on five teams in five years.
You don't need Carson Wentz.
By the way,
I'm going to throw a name out again.
I don't care.
I assume the commanders may keep him.
I don't know where he'll go.
There are guys like Josh Johnson
that you can get to be that second quarterback.
You don't need Carson Wentz.
I feel like I heard his name recently.
I'm sure because the commanders probably couldn't keep.
I mean, they picked him away.
He's a, he's a bangle now.
Is he a bangle?
He's a bangle.
I mean, honestly, he might have been all of these things
at one point or another.
I'll have to look.
He's been on 15 teams.
Bangle's would be new for him.
He might be on 16 now.
But the thing is,
there are guys like that true journeyman.
Nope, wrong.
He was a bangle in 2013.
Sorry.
Didn't add a new one.
So you can,
you can add someone like,
like a Josh Johnson,
who's played a million years
and you signed for a million dollars.
I don't need Carson Wentz.
I don't need it.
Isn't it more likely if you're going to go with this Gino,
I'm not going to call it an experiment.
You're going with Gino.
Yeah.
You're just starting quarterback.
To get a guy like Josh Johnson
or one of those veteran journeyman backups
that's not going to really fight for the job.
And if you're going to draft a quarterback
that you believe Frank Reich could turn into something,
don't you want him to have someone
of a shot to be the backup?
I'll allow what Jackson Dart was for the New York Giants.
Yeah.
No, you do.
But you need to have that other one journeyman
just in case they're not ready to be there.
Right.
And it has to be Carson Wentz.
And it doesn't have to be Carson Wentz.
You're talking about a holdover thing.
If somehow God forbid,
you know Smith gets hurt anyway.
Sorry.
You're not winning that many games.
So even with Gino,
they're not winning that many games.
So you don't need it to be another...
If you've gotten Carson Wentz,
I would have thought it was stupid.
But I would have said,
you don't need Gino Smith now.
So I say it in reverse also.
You got Gino Smith.
You don't need Carson Wentz.
You don't.
Let's go to Jimmy and Montclair.
What's up, Jimmy?
If you do a little show as always.
Hey, quick question.
Obviously, I know WrestleMania's around the corner
and whatnot.
And I actually used to go to every WrestleMania.
But then I stopped with all these extreme places.
But I don't want to get you in trouble here.
Do you ever watch the competitor?
Because that paper review on Sunday was phenomenal.
Of course.
Well, you know,
MJF is one of my dear friends.
And I haven't gotten to watch his blood bath,
Texas deathmatch that he had with him.
But I heard it was fantastic.
I saw the disgusting highlight.
But I have not yet watched the full match.
The needle, right?
The needle through the cheek.
But I did hear it was a sick paper view in general.
I'm going to try to get to it.
Excuse me tonight.
Absolutely.
You definitely showed the young box match as well with FTR.
Yeah, no, I've been psyched about that story too.
The young box FTR thing after they after the young box dragged.
After FTR dragged young box sibling into it.
I thought that was awesome.
All for it.
No, listen, you have to understand.
I am, I love WWE.
It's like one of the joys of my life getting to work there.
But you are never going to see me be anti-any company.
Because wrestling is a really hard business to be a part of.
Whether you're a worker who risks your body.
The people who the blood, you know, the true bloodline of the business.
Or whether you're a broadcaster who loves it and wants to be a part of it.
It's a really hard business to be a part of.
And the more places there are to do it, the better the business is for everyone.
So I think people who take sides about like what one company or another is ridiculous.
And all and everyone in WWE has a ton of friends in AEW and TNA and Ring of Honor.
Because the business is is quite small.
That's just, that's just how it is.
All right, I have to admit, it's something everyone.
I lied.
I didn't get to Antonio or Gil.
I tried my best.
I did not make it.
But I love you guys.
Come to Kalandras tomorrow.
We will be there.
Really excited for tomorrow again.
