Ken Puts His Reputation on the Line for a Browns Upset Over Jacksonville

0:00Hey, I arrived almost here. Are you ready? Just grabbing my shoes. That's what you said 10 minutes ago. I just wrapped a video call, uploading this giant file on my tablet, looking at my watch group and Nana's with the group chat, and of course, still lining up tonight's playlist on my phone.

Crystal Geyser Alpine Springwater always bottled at the source. 20 minutes from the University Hospital's sports desk. We are sports radio 92-3-TheFan. Why didn't realize my credibility was on the lot? I didn't realize that credibility was crisp. Hey, you, Darryl Ryder, gonna join us at 820. He'll make that joke. Tomorrow is when Darryl joins us. Also, Nathan's gonna 9am to preview the Browns and Jakes. I said early in the show, I'm picking the Browns to beat the Jaguars week one.

3:02Sunday, this coming Sunday, I'm picking the Browns to win. Well, that'd be the biggest upset of the week. And Limea immediately jumped on me and I'm sure a lot of people who, for whatever reason, are tweeting in Limea and not me to stick it to me. Are you getting a lot of people saying, of course, same old, sorry, S. Ken? Is that what they're doing? Honestly, there was a little bit at the start, but I think people genuinely... Yeah, they had to go to work. And so now we got new people to talk to and they're gonna think I'm full of it too. I can explain why I think they're gonna win. I think there is always a zeal, a need for some, not necessarily home cooking, but like, all right, guys, come on. The football season is starting. We don't like the quarterback. You don't like the quarterback. But it'd be really cool to celebrate a win and have us on the highlight shows. I don't like the situation any better than you now. And to have people talk favorably about our football team and the direction, think about it this way. If they come out and they pull off the upset, nine and a half point, underdogs, whatever they are, and they win. I think people will at least be excited about Todd Monkin, Casey Kisepsion, Boston Fanon.

4:04Kisepsion. Kisepsion. Kisepsion. There's no sh in there. There's no? There should be. I say Kisepsion, like I say other words, like Isu. Kisepsion. There you go. Okay. What are you saying? That you have a good running game that the offensive line is clicking, that the defense doesn't fall off a cliff without Miles Garrett and Jim Schwartz. It sounds like a big item to do all this stuff though. But we, but that if they pull off the win, it sounds like you are begging them to do all these things. You expect none of it. And if it happens, what? But the difference is I think there's talent to do a lot of that stuff that I just talked about. There have been years where we don't have the talent to pull off any of that. So you asked, because you say I picked them to win week one every year. Yeah. I will answer you that I think that it's the most likely game that a knock so great football team can win. I think I treat this like I would a wild card appearance. Let it ride. We'll see where it goes. One other note. Team that's made its first wild card appearance, not like the bills who are like,

5:05this is ridiculous. We shouldn't even be playing in this game. Well, not like that. One other note, Jeff Tanchek, 19, loyal listener, the show while he's also doing his reports. What do you say? He said he got a thought of the background. He does. He says. I got all the other people listening. He said it is going to be 90 degrees with a heat index of 100. Oh my God. Although I have the cooling fans down there, right? They got the pool that you can dip into, right? Well, you can't go jump it in there with your football equipment on. That's probably what they're missing. They need that. They should have it as an option. Are they getting rid of the pool when they redo that stadium? Get rid of that stupid pool. I think they're going to large it. I think that'll be a bigger part of the scene. Get rid of that stupid pool. Or at least you know what you can do? At least put up some sort of partition between you and the bottom half of the people that are in that pool. Well, I don't need to see it. They're not going to swim up red zone. Well, that action might be kind of fun. There's no way in hell I'd ever get in that pool. You know how many things are filthy and an NFL stadium in the first place? And you guys want to go jumping in that pool?

6:06You're crazy. Well, where would you rather be? Would you rather be a dysentery in that pool? Getting a brawl in the 500 section or in the pool where everybody seems pretty well. You know what? I'd rather be in a brawl in the 500 section than be in a pool where I can get syphilis and Jacksonville. We have not seen a fight break out yet in that pool. There's always a first time. I'm sure we've seen a fight break out in the pool. Anyway, you asked if it affects my credibility. Yeah, ask him again. Well, I wanted to know if... Jim and Syracuse said I was crazy. If every year Ken says, Hey, I'm coming around. I think they're going to win the opener. I think they're going to win week one. I don't think they're going to win a bunch of games. I didn't pick him to win eight games this year and say it was the freaking Shangri-La. The seas of the way that they quite... Nick didn't pick him to win the first two games either. So... So again, they're going to go O and two but somehow they're streaked to win eight games. But we're still going to talk about quarterbacks. Then they're going to go on the show. He came on the show this morning. So you guys can go back and use the rewind feature

7:07and listen to that because I still don't understand how we're going to start out O and two. And then you're saying that next year we're picking a quarterback but Shadour Sanders is going to take us to eight wins. Because if Shadour Sanders takes this team to eight wins after you start out O and two, I don't think we're talking much about the quarterbacks. Am I wrong? It becomes the Baker Mayfield thing all over again. Why do you want something that you think is better? It's two in a hand, one in a bush. We do this all over again. Baker Mayfield had dedicated fans. Shadour Sanders has dedicated fans. So to Nick's own logic, and yet he explained it and I was nice to him, but it still just doesn't make any sense to me. He says he'll fight people over the off season about taking a quarterback. All right, but if Shadour Sanders takes this team that I just said has holes, gaping holes after the starters and they're going to need these guys. All right, I'm not talking about week one here. Hope put that on the show for just a second. And week one, a heat index of 100. And a heat is making fun of because it's Florida.

8:08He says that's every day in Florida. Well, yeah, but we spend every day in Ohio and so of the browns over the last time any week. So there's not really a whole lot of time you can spend down in Florida. And less during the last two and a half weeks, when you had the off days, they all flew down to Florida and just sat there in the heat to maybe acclimate themselves to it, whether it may place a factor. And we thank Jeff Tanchek for listening to the show and checking in with us about that. But dammit, what I'm pointing out is you don't disagree with, by the way, right? No. Okay. Do you know it? I'm asking you about the disagree? Yeah. I don't blame you looking over there. 21647-4-902. The reason I say they can win week one, excuse me, the reason I'm picking them to win Sunday. Yes, part of it has to do with just the odds of week one. The Raiders, with the number one overall, picked this year. The Raiders, the Raiders were terrible. We beat the Raiders. We barely had to come up with a game plan. It was almost like they were trying to lose to us. Raiders went out and beat New England week one last year.

9:09Seattle lost week one last year. It seems really weird results. And it really going to the same. We've seen the Caroline, I think there was the year the Caroline Panthers went one in 15. I think they won week one and then proceeded to lose 15 games in a row. Like week one is crazy. And it doesn't really matter the generation week one as a wild card. So if they can eliminate, if they do what Todd Munkin is freaking out about, which is eliminate, bleepie football, eliminate pre-snap penalties, like illegal motions and like things you should know, things that you are grown adult football players, you guys should know we shouldn't be stepping into this. Like that was where I'm thinking, like last year, I'm like they're not paying attention to Kevin anymore. This is a sloppy as it gets. I don't care what you're talking about with personnel. And when I talk about personnel for this game, there's healthiest are going to be this year. You will start to get unhealthy as this game on Sunday goes on. So hopefully they're able to make it through practice today and tomorrow, everything's going to be hunky dorian just fine with our main players. But as of right now, what do we got?

10:09We got Tevin Jenkins with a back injury, but he was limited Parker Brailsford with a thumb. He was limited Malik Collins, I think was limited with a quad injury, right? This is this is this is as healthy as they're going to be. So they're all there for you. It's a chance to get after him. Maybe you're again, I don't know how much zone they're going to play. I don't know how much man they're going to play. But I'm telling you, I'm not you could put me to the test each and every week if you want to and put me officially on the mark. There's going to be a lot of Sundays. I just don't pick the Browns for a plethora of reasons that we haven't even seen yet. I'm picking the Browns Sunday for all those reasons I just stated, yes, you can win and yes, I think they will. As long as we run the ball a lot and can run with effectiveness and make second down, not second and 14 second manageable like second and six or second and five did can make the case 216 474 0092 quarterback shot puts the football I trust him for five yards. I'm not sure for six.

11:09By the way, just as a quick aside, a lot of low crossers by our rookies. I just watched a video yesterday of Baker's last stealer game was it his last game in a Browns uniform and big Ben was on the other side. You want to talk about shop putting a football? I know. He was so bad and we lost that game. Yeah, we did. I think they played like Renegade like three times. I swear I heard Renegade more than once. It was a bad night. Real bad night, the office. And that was the week after the Christmas day disaster. The four interceptions. Was it? I thought so. Yeah. That was that same year. Yeah, I think TJ Watt played like six plays and had four. Yeah. Remember, I had four, I had a fever because I had COVID because somebody came into the station with COVID and gave it all to us because he wanted to be a selfish bastard and he gave us all COVID for Christmas. So I had to sit there because I wasn't going to sit there and watch him throw four interceptions without drinking.

12:10So I had a thermometer in one hand and I had a beer in the other and I was taking my temperature as I drank. And we're not doing coming in hot tomorrow for obvious reasons. So don't even start with the gubernatorial race. Two, one, six, four, seven, four, 0092. Stop laughing and ain't funny. You're laughing. I was pissed at you that day. I didn't keep laughing. I didn't do eight hours of radio. I had a fever. I had nothing else other than a fever, nothing than a fever. And I'm running about 99 degrees and he starts throwing picks because he just wanted to be the hero that day. He just had to be the hero, had to do it. Okay. We had to deal with Baker's fantasy land. But then again, we're the ones who are wrong in that year. Okay, got it. I didn't want to move on from two, one, six, four, seven, four, 0092. Dominic, you can go ahead. Congratulations. Hello, Dominic. Hey, at first I was thinking, hey, that's a refreshing way to cool off with a swimming pool at a football stadium.

13:11But then you think about it, people are drinking heavily. Think what you think the urine content and vomit content is like. They get out of the pool. They get out of the pool. They get out of the pool. They get out of the pool. They get out of that pool, Dominic. Thank you very much for the call. Ain't doing that. Thank you for weighing in, Dominic. We needed that. The truth is being told here by Donald. But he thought about it a little more. People are saying that you can get gonorrhea in a pool. I don't know if that's true. Can you get gonorrhea in a pool? Hey, all right. It's almost here. Are you ready? Just grabbing my shoes. That's what you said 10 minutes ago. I just wrapped the video call, uploading this giant file on my tablet, looking at my watch group and Nana's with the group chat. And of course, still lining up tonight's playlist on my phone.

16:15I'll answer that off the air. 216-474-2992. So did I talk you into taking the Browns in week one against the Jaguars? You know what? To cover. How about that? That's not good enough. They don't care about covering. Well, Richard, I thought they were gonna get blown out. Now, I mean, now cover. Let's go. You want to get real crazy. I mean, okay, put your money where your mouth is. I'm not betting on football. Why would you not, if you think they're winning the game and not getting nine and a half points? I'm not gambling in general. It's gonna be up to 11. No. I'm only seeing eight and a half here. No, if I've been increasing it every time I mention it. I start now and then I won't stop. And then you're gonna talk to me like Nicky and Casino about putting the heat on because I've been betting on the Browns on you. But do the same thing that he does it at the beginning every year where he increases the win total. You do the lie. Yeah. All right. Did I talk you into thinking they're gonna win on Sunday? I'm not trying to do some sort of a weird thing. I sincerely believe the Browns will win on Sunday. I won't guarantee it because we know what happens when I guarantee things.

17:15I burst blood vessels in my face. But I sincerely believe that they're gonna win. 216474 to below 92. Also, my wife's a travel agent. I think I would know the Rams are making a mistake today. And John is learning a lot about Cleveland baseball. I think it's about to find out that we do share a lot and common with Philadelphia when it comes to football.
