Time Text
You know, actually, Mike, instead of going 24 uh 1617, I might go 24, 18 and 19.
In other words, Haley Barber and in Hillary.
And then maybe we'll get to Chris Christie after that.
Heck, I don't know.
However, it shakes out.
Gibbs, White House press secretary, is now condemning the uh the minister down there in Gainesville, Florida, of burning the uh holy Quran as a provocation.
The uh pastor, apparently, I'm trying to follow this up, uh, is demanding to speak with Mr. Obama about this.
And at Gibbs says they're thinking about placing the call to the pastor.
I'm sure the pastor is curious why he hasn't received his NEA grant.
Pastors probably say, where did I go wrong?
I've watched all these other groups get federal money for dressing themselves up nude and chocolate and putting a crucifix in a jar of urine, the NEA's paper.
How come I get paid for burning the Koran?
So he's uh probably gonna take it up with Obama, Gibbs uh thinking about well.
Who knows what the minister's motivations are?
Money is a powerful thing.
Climate advocates, stung by defeat in the Senate, are folding one of their big umbrella lobbying groups.
Just look at look at how many more people.
Uh Obama the Democrats are putting out of work here.
Client or clean energy works.
Clean energy works, a coalition of 80 environmental, religious, veteran, and labor groups, will phase out its operations this fall as Democrat congressional leaders abandoned plans for a sweeping bill to cap greenhouse gas emissions.
Don't worry, Mike Castle will be in there.
Oh, wait, did Castle vote for this or not?
Now I'm confused.
Did Castle vote for Cap and Trade or not?
I've seen it on both sides of it.
We'll have to find out.
Anyway, at its peak, this coalition Clean Energy Works had 200 field organizers in key states, and more than 45 staffers based out of a war room in downtown Washington.
Castle voted for Cap and Trade, I'm told.
Snerdley still spelling cap.
He did for it.
I thought he did.
I thought he voted for Cap and Trade.
Um.
So 200 field organizers, key states, more than 45 staffers based out of a war room in downtown Washington out of work.
This whole bunch is led by Paul Twees, who ran Obama's 2008 campaign operations in Iowa and other battleground states.
One source affiliated with Clean Energy Works said, you know, it's basically like hitting the pause button trying to figure out how to redeploy.
They said the phase out was long expected.
So all of these left-wing wackos going by the wayside here.
More on a other word, and and I don't think this is related specifically to cap and trade.
I think this is related in large part to the entire collapse of the whole global warming hoax.
Because if the global warming hoax had not been exposed for what it is, cap and trade wouldn't be on the ropes.
It's that simple.
I mean, people can try to hide around this or blame something else for it, but it's simple.
Fact of the matter, if every if if this hoax at global warming had not been exposed, and if everybody's still bought into that, they wouldn't be having any trouble on cap and trade at all.
Haley Barmer, uh Christian Science Monitor, sponsored of breakfast.
Haley Barber, Governor of Mississippi, was a guest.
Reporter asked him.
Why um, why do you think Americans are so confused about Obama's religion?
Why do so many people think Obama was born outside the United States is what Haley Barber said.
This is a president that we know less about than any other president.
But I mean I have no idea.
Why, you know, I accept Just totally at face value that he's a Christian.
Said so throughout the throughout the time he's been in public life.
Good enough for me.
Do I think there's a vast right-wing conspiracy, no man?
Well, there's Haley Barber.
Do I think there's a vast right-wing conspiracy, no man?
I'll accept on face values of Christian.
Said so over the public laugh.
But what really ticked him off about the Haley Barber comment is when he said, This is a president we know less about than any other president in history.
That does not send tingles up their legs.
That sends shock up their spine.
That just bugs them all.
The people on the left, it just bugs them all in.
And you know why it bugs them?
Because they, all these liberal people on the left, these media people, they are the ones who have obscured who Obama is on purpose.
They're the ones who told us it didn't matter.
We've never had somebody like this in American politics before.
Postpartisan, post-racist, post-accomplishment, post-American, post everything.
We've never had anybody this smart, this well spoken, this clean, this articulate.
We've never ever had somebody can bridge all of the gaps.
All that mattered, the American left, was that he was African American.
That's that's what mattered to him, because that to them was a way they were going to assuage their guilt, their collective guilt over our civil rights transgressions and our slavery past and so forth.
They didn't want to know who Obama was.
And now, because they shielded from people just exactly who he was, and Obama was not required to uh go through the usual media anal exam.
Now people don't who he is, and the media is how can anybody say this?
Here's Hillary Clinton.
This is Mrs. Clinton.
Now, this folks, uh this to me is a little fascinating.
Because when you hear what Mrs. Clinton says here, she says our debt level is a national security threat.
She may be, I'm just putting out here for consideration, she may be showing her hand for the 2012 election.
Yesterday at the CFR, the Council on Foreign Relations.
Mrs. Clinton made a speech.
After the speech, there was a QA.
The moderator Richard Haas asked her the following question.
United States soon approaching a point where the scale or size of our debt will exceed our GDP.
Question of when more than if.
Where does national security contribute to the solution to running deficits of one and a half trillion dollars a year?
Or do we continue to carry out a foreign and defense policy as if we're not seriously resource-constrained?
I think that our rising debt levels pose a national security threat.
And it poses a national security threat in two ways.
It undermines our capacity to act in our own interests, and it uh does constrain us where uh constraint may be undesirable, and it also sends a message of weakness internationally.
I mean, it is uh very troubling to me that uh we are losing the ability not only to chart our own destiny, but to you know, have the leverage that comes from this enormously effective economic engine that has powered American uh values and interests over so many years.
Now, if you listen to all these sound, but you listen to a lot of her remarks here, Hillary sounds a little bit like the Imam in if we don't raise taxes, there's gonna be violence.
Now, wasn't she a senator?
What spending bills apart from the military has she ever voted against?
We learned today that this administration has run up more debt in 20 months than the entire country did from the founding to Ronald Reagan.
Yet here's Mrs. Clinton saying our debt level is a national security threat.
Well, who's responsible for the debt level?
Now I know that the regime is trying to say it's it's it's it's Bush.
But I want to look at this from the prism, and it's a long shot.
And I admit it's a long shot.
What if Mrs. Clinton does?
Well, it's it's not a long shot she wants to be president.
It is a long shot whether she'll go for it in 2012.
But what if she decides to pull a trigger in 2012?
Could this possibly be?
This is the long shot.
Setting a stage.
If she's gonna seek the nomination 2012, she has to first oppose Obama before she gets to whoever the Republican nominee is.
Probably Mike Castle.
Mike Castle.
So before Hillary gets to facing Mike Castle, if not Mike Castle, Chris Shays, if not Chris Shay's Charlie Christ.
Seems to be the kind of Republican favored by many inside the beltway.
She first has to oppose Obama.
I I know it's a stretch.
Could she be setting the stage here for just that?
Now I know she was asked the question, but still the way she answered it.
Our rising debt level poses a national security threat in two ways.
Now, if she plans to ascend to the throne.
Uh she you remember she left the Senate in order to make the case that top Democrats in elected office.
I mean, she got out of there.
She got out of the Senate, ran for president, now she's Secretary of State.
She never said a word in opposition to any spending plan by the regime whatsoever.
Now says the deficit and our rising debt is a national security threat.
Well, you could say that that makes Obama, Pelosi, and Reed unindicted co-conspirators to inflate the debt and thus weaken our national security.
I mean, she's saying it here.
The Secretary of State.
I mean, you don't hear anybody else's administration talking this way, do you?
This is my point.
Even what's his name, Orzog?
In his op-ed in the New York Times, even Orzog, he didn't, he didn't characterize the debt as a national security threat.
There is nobody in the regime talking about.
They're talking about spending even more.
The people in the regime are spending.
We haven't spent enough.
We need another $50 billion.
Yesterday, here goes at the CFR.
This is not insignificant.
Hillary Clinton categorizes our national debt, rising debt as a national security threat.
You might say, you could say that Hillary's comments are calculated to inflict some damage on Obama at a time when he is vulnerable and reeling.
Now, I know a lot of people rush, come on, you think she's really going to go after Obama.
This is all set up for going after the Republicans.
If she wants the White House, she's got to run against Obama first.
If she wants it in 2012, I'm just putting it out there for you to think about.
Because I haven't heard anybody in the administration talk about the debt the way she did yesterday.
We're talking about it that way on the right.
You're talking that's one of the reasons Democrats are going to have their lunch handed to them in November is because of what they've done to the debt and what that means to our kids and grandkids.
And here all of a sudden is Hillary, a ranking member of the regime over at the State Department joining this chorus.
And calling it a national security threat?
I'm just saying.
All right, let's go back to the phones.
Uh Stan in Rochester, New York.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Testing 1234.
Stan.
Hello.
Yeah, hi, Stan.
How are you?
Good.
How are you doing?
Very well, sir.
Thank you.
I'm not I'm not a fan of the right wing Republican, but I am a reasonable man.
Uh I don't hate anybody, but uh you know, I think all this mosque stuff that the uh right wing has been stirring up about the mosque, which is you know, constitutional.
I don't agree with it, but it is constitutional.
All this has led to the Quran burning, and that's gonna endanger our troops.
This guy's a nutcase.
Do you know those people over there?
Yeah, you know what?
I happen to agree with you out there on this.
Huh?
I do.
I agree with you.
Our troops are fine and dead.
But we build this mosque.
You're right, Stan, there's no telling what could happen.
I'm talking about the burning of the Quran.
Well, okay, the same thing.
If we burn the Quran, our troops in Afghanistan, I mean they're over there planting poppies or harvesting whatever the uh the troop, the croup, the crops are, we're trying to put together democracies over there to fine and dandy.
But if we burn the Quran, you're right.
Our troops they might actually be fired on.
No, I'm talking about the mutilations that we you had seen in the past.
You know, televised mutilations, dragging bodies through the street streets, chopping the heads off.
I mean, these people are nuts.
You know that.
You said it over and over.
I know, and it's our fault.
I mean, if and we're just gonna compound it here if we burn some Korans.
If you're gonna do something, do it right.
Drop a nuke on 'em.
If if that's the way you feel about them and you want to end it all, Well, no, that who's talking about dropping a nuke on them.
I'm just saying, if that's what your position is.
It's not my, but don't put nuke in what do you mean?
Who's talking about nuking anybody?
Otherwise, get the hell out of there and stop all this nonsense that's creating anything.
Stanley and agitating.
Why the hell should we get out of there?
Our troops aren't in any danger until we start burning Korans.
That's what you just said.
Our troops are in danger, but the escalation is not a big thing.
Oh no, they can't be in danger because we haven't started burning any Qurans yet.
They were in danger when we started the surge.
What happened when we started the surge?
A lot of people died.
Well, okay, so then it doesn't matter if we burn Korans because they were already mad at us.
Yeah, but the the uh level of So the Koran burning can go on now.
They're gonna start mutilating bodies when they capture a soldier.
They ain't gonna just take them.
They're gonna mutilate them like they did before.
Well then wait a minute.
Wait a minute to the city.
If they mutter if they muttered, if they mutilated if they mutilated bodies before, they can't start mutilating bodies now after we burn the Koran.
It seemed to have calmed down.
Well, mutilations calm down TV with them cutting their head off like that.
Yeah.
Journalist.
Right.
You know, and that's what you're gonna see more of that.
Well, you know, you just agitate these people.
You know, what do you think of it?
You think maybe Israel should just leave?
Israel wants to bomb them, let them go down.
No, I'm not talking about should the Jews leave Israel.
Because I mean the Jews being over there, that's agitated.
A lot of mutilations going on because the Jews are in Israel.
Maybe the Jews ought to go back to Poland.
No, I don't think they should have, but I've often wondered because I was too young to understand it, how you can go in and give somebody a a piece of somebody else's land.
That's like coming over here saying, Okay, we're gonna give uh the Croatians California.
And then nobody's actually may not be a bad idea, but you're talking about, for example, when um uh when when the Supreme Court said this woman's house in uh Connecticut be taken by the developers to build a mall.
Yeah, I don't agree with that.
Yeah, me too.
I don't agree with it.
You know, but I do agree with some other things, but I d I don't like I said, I don't know how uh Israel got that piece of land over there that was Palestinians.
I wasn't uh around at that time.
Really?
Never understood it.
How do you just take a hunk of land off and give it to somebody else and expect the residents there not to be angry?
Yeah, that's an excellent point.
You know?
So you're gonna have a war forever.
Well, but not until we burn the Qurans.
If we if we start burning the Qurans and it's all over.
I mean, it's really bad.
If we build a mosque, uh if we don't build a mosque, that's even gonna compound uh burning the Qurans.
The mosque has nothing to do with the Quran.
Like I said, I don't agree with building the mosque there.
But they have the constitutional right.
Either we're gonna uphold the Constitution or we're gonna burn it, one or the other.
Throw it in with the Koran.
Well, now wait a minute.
Just because you uh you know there are all kinds of zoning laws uh that people have to the Constitution wouldn't be violated if the mosque is not built there.
Well, you just said you didn't agree with the way they took that woman's property away by zoning laws.
Yeah, that's the federal I don't believe the government uh coming and taking leave, especially since they haven't built the the mall there that they were gonna build.
Yeah, I mean you didn't agree with that.
Well, that's the air is you can't have federal regulations coming in telling people what to do with their private property, especially when it's all within code.
Damn right.
I mean, that's how I've had a hair for electrical.
Well, I know, I know.
I've had it, you know, there's a guy out in California, the kangaroo rat was on his land and he had to give up his land to save the kangaroo rat.
It was a baker's field, it was a farmer.
It was outrageous.
He wasn't even burning Korans.
Well, that stuff's ridiculous, too.
Like I said, I'm reasonable.
You know, I'm not I'm not unreasonable about things.
I think I'm different.
I got a new whole new party here.
I'm called the logic of down to earth party, feet on the ground.
The down to earth party.
The down to earth party.
Let's get down to earth and the real issues instead of fabricating all this crap.
What is a real issue?
The real issue is jobs, the economy, get our kids out of harm's way if they're not fighting for anything.
But who's who's causing jobs to be lost?
Well, I now here's tariffs.
Uh companies shipping jobs overseas.
Right.
You gotta look at uh jobs the same way as you look at the border of Mexico.
So it doesn't matter if we burn the Korans because companies are shifting jobs overseas in Mexico, we've it's over.
Kangaroo rat wins.
All right, now let me.
For the for those of you who are in a panic out there over uh some of the last.
Let me just explain some things to you so you know that.
Uh there was never a country called Palestine.
I know this.
You don't have to send me emails.
Uh there is not only a constitutional right to build a mosque, there's a constitutional right to burn Korans.
Uh Britain gave Israel the land.
It was Britain's land to give.
Israel was established via the British mandate, British governed the trans Jordan.
This is what we now call Palestine.
Israel, it was theirs to do what they wanted with.
It's not as though people came along and took it.
Uh what's next here, Snerdley?
Uh Ed in Milford, Connecticut, you're next on the EIV network.
Hello, sir.
Russ, uh, I've heard both sides of this Koran burning thing, and I just felt compelled to call.
Yeah.
I can understand both arguments.
And I agree with both sides.
Wait, what are the two clue me?
What are the two arguments?
To burn or not to burn?
Either burn the Quran to make a statement, like this guy says, Yeah.
Or to not burn it because we're going to uh upset these people.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
The old provocation argument.
Yeah.
So rather than to be like Joel Lieberman, I decided I'll I'll take a stance.
And my stance is this.
I think back at all the times we've seen Bibles burned, we've seen our flag burned, our president burned an effigy.
None of our politicians, anybody seem to care about that.
They all think that everybody has a right to do that.
And I think back, the jumpers, I actually have seen photos of jumpers off the World Trade Center after they landed.
I'm one of the few that saw that.
If you ever saw it, you let them burn these these Korans.
And I think about the people getting their head cuts all, you know, cut off, and I think, you know what, there comes a time when it may seem silly or it may seem you know, like something that shouldn't be done.
I say do it.
If somebody would pay my way, I gladly fly to Florida and I defecate and urinate on that Koran before he burn it.
That's how I feel right now.
Yeah, you're really uh upset about this.
I'm really ticked off, Rush.
Think back how people forgot about 911 already.
Think about what we've done since 911.
If I told you all those years ago that we were going to elect this president and we were gonna let these Muslims come in and do everything in this country that they've done, you would have said I'm insane.
No, that some people saying that now.
Well it is what it is, and I I say burn it.
Let him burn it.
Well, you can go to Gainesville.
Well, if I didn't have a business, I would.
I'm working.
I'm just telling you.
That's how I feel.
Okay, well, I I appreciate your call.
I thank you very much.
Um the uh passions are overflowing out there on the uh on the issue.
Detroit, Michigan, Ken, and welcome to the Rush Limbaugh program.
Nice to have you here, sir.
Yeah, Rush, uh, thanks for taking my call.
Uh first I wanted to say that I totally applaud and agree with everything your uh last caller said, but I wanted to extend it.
Uh I think we need to focus on what is the real story as far as this uh which caller are you talking about?
The last one.
The immediate last caller.
Yes.
The immediate last caller.
A urinate and defecate caller.
Yes.
Okay.
Okay.
Now I wanted to add to that though.
Uh the real story about the Bible burning down in Gainesville, Florida, is that the uh mainstream news media and now the White House are really creating a news story that really shouldn't be a story.
If you look at it this way, in under the old media, this never would have gotten out of uh this pastor's uh Sunday bulletin.
It definitely probably wouldn't have made it into the local Gainesville newspaper.
But now we have it all over the place.
And and the ad to that point, we have way over a million people in this country that call themselves Christians, quietly worshiping in more than a million churches.
Um Christians that are doing good deeds for their fellow man typically, and yet the mainstream news media, and like I said, now even the White House, they have to dig up this one pastor out of one small little teeny weenie congregation that has less than forty people on Sunday, and they're using him to stir up the uh flames again.
So this is the real story, Rush.
Well, it is doing it.
No, you're you're very perceptive.
This this pastor has given them an opportunity to smear once again uh the smearable religion in this country, which is Christianity.
You can smear Christianity with impunity.
But they you know, the the the news media is what it is.
This is why I was telling you uh in the last hour that I got into kind of a a spirited discussion with my golf buddies because they kept talking about the um the media as though they report news.
They don't.
This is uh I mean the the this the I mean they haven't been happier in a long time than when they heard about this preacher down there is gonna start burning Korans.
Because it fulfills uh a template.
It confirms, you know, uh prejudice belief that they have.
Let me check something here.
Just let me call up my calendar program.
Thanks for the call out there.
Um let me see.
Uh see, what is this?
Is the ninth this right?
That's the ninth, right?
Two weeks.
So you can't blame the full moon for it.
The full moon's not for two weeks.
Uh Miami, Tony, welcome to the EIB network.
Great to have you here, sir.
Hello, Rush.
Thank you for having me.
Uh quick comments.
Uh, I understand the White House uh or someone from the White House is considering giving uh this uh this pastor a call in Gainesville.
Now what I find curious is uh does this mean that Obama is actually going to speak as to the wisdom of what this pastor is doing?
Because I seem to recall some weeks back uh Obama said that the mosque builders uh had the legal right, but that he was refraining from uh you know speaking as to the wisdom of building the mosque where they wanted to build it.
I just I just find it curious and just wanted to get your thoughts on it.
Um well, we did have Gibbs say in the White House press briefing are thinking about calling the uh the preacher.
Uh I don't know what they want to do.
Uh maybe trying to talk the preacher into not doing this.
But what uh what I find uh uh of uh maybe it's offensive to me, I guess, is that Obama speaks uh uh refuses to speak as to the wisdom of what these Muslims are doing in New York in a sense, i.e., uh they are uh Oh, he came out in favor of it.
He didn't he didn't refuse to speak.
Well, I what but he then he was you're right.
But then, you know, I think it was a day after when he was down there in the in the Gulf Coast when he sort of backtracked and said, Well, I wasn't really speaking as to the wisdom of it.
But uh but the fact that Well, that was a cheap effort to walk it back.
He said what he meant to say.
Oh, I know.
I know, but but the fact is he okay, he's he's for it, but then he tries to uh backtrack and say they you know he doesn't know as to the wisdom of it, but then he feels compelled to, mind you, this man is doing what he can under the Constitution.
I don't agree with it.
I think it's idiotic, but you know, more power to him under the Constitution.
But now we have threats of violence against uh uh our troops as if the threats of violence against her troops and and interests were not out there before, but I digress.
Well, of course.
I mean, that's the point that I have uh been making, as though the troops aren't under threat as it exists anyway.
So anyway, Tony, I uh I appreciate the call.
By the way, you remember all the outrage when somebody tried to burn down Sarah Palin's church.
You missed that.
You don't know about that certainly.
Don, you didn't hear about that.
Really, I d well, I don't remember the outrage either.
Barely even made the local papers.
And I don't think it got much national press, if any at all.
Somebody tried to burn down Sarah Palin's church, but we got this Kook pastor down there in uh what's his face uh down there in Gainesville, threatening to burn a Koran, and it's a story of the year.
So the we had a call a couple couple calls ago who's guys uh uh understands where the media is on this and how they're fanning the flames, even before there are any.
And this is exactly what I mean about how media is full of agenda and propaganda.
I mean, a Koran has not been burned yet.
This guy just talking about it.
Now you would think gazillions of them have been uh have been torched.
All right, the NFL kicks off tonight.
Bret Farr, Brett Farr, Brett Favre in town for Minnesota in New Orleans.
Uh play the Saints, kick off the NFL season, Al Michaels, Chris Collinsworth.
By the way, no Keith Olbermann on the NFL pregame show at NBC this year.
It was uh was made official yesterday, even though it'd been uh discussed a couple three weeks ago, maybe a month ago.
You know what I just finished reading?
Uh nothing to do with football.
I just finished reading that millennium trilogy, Stig Larson, uh The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, the girl who played with fire, the girl who kicked the Hornet's nest.
I don't think I've ever read, other than my brother's book now that I just could not put down.
I don't think I've ever read three novels faster.
Um I've read a Vince Flynn novel and every one of them, but I mean these three.
Uh and I I was kind of surprised because I Stig Larson died at age 50, very young, after uh the manuscripts after three books have been written unpublished, two hundred pages of the fourth have been written, and he died, heart attack.
And there's a he didn't leave a will, which means that uh his family gets the estate, but his family had nothing to do with writing the books.
His companion did.
He never married her.
But there's an argument now over who has access to the 200 words of it, or 200 pages have been written.
But this character that uh that he created, this computer hacker, Lisbeth Salander.
Have you read these books, sir?
They are they are they take place in Sweden, and they just it just it's it's uh and he wrote these books for his own entertainment.
I mean, I don't even the the story I don't know if he ever intended to publish them or not, but they did.
They've made a movie out of all three of them, it's Vedon.
First one's been released.
But here's the thing it has have a football connection, because I was sitting here minding my own business about a month ago, and I get this note from a very proud father.
Good friend of mine, Chris Mara, who's uh one of the many sons of Wellington Mara, Chris director of pro player personnel development of the New York Giants.
He's got two daughters who act.
One is Kate Mara.
She was in uh We Are Marshall and Brokeback Mountain.
And Rooney, Patricia Rooney Mara, she goes by the name Rooney, and she's got the part of Lizbeth Salander in the Hollywood make, Hollywood version of the um Girl with a Dragon Tattoo.
And I think they're filming it now in Sweden, I think.
And I said, Chris, have you read these books?
You better go read this book.
I mean, the his daughter, I think, is 24-25, which is the uh same age as the character in the by the way.
This is a major plum.
I mean, Scarlett Johansson wanted this, Natalie Portman wanted this role, and uh Rooney Mara gets it.
The daughter of one of our good friends, Kathleen uh Rooney is the is Chris's wife and the mother, and she's the daughter of Tim Rooney, is one of the one of the Steelers Rooney brothers.
I mean, this is a football royalty.
And now this this uh this young woman gets this primo part.
It's an amazing series of uh now folks.
Now I know it's a family show.
If you're gonna go read these books, you have an open mind.
I mean, you some of this, depending on your moral code would be way outside the guardrails.
If you can set that aside, uh it's they're they're fascinatingly well done.
And uh great insight into uh makes me want to go to Svedan.
And not no just to see it, not because of what might find them.
Yeah, but this character, this character, Lisbeth Stavander, is uh an amazing literary character.
Anyway, so tonight we have we have the Brett Faves and the Saints.
I think the Saints are four-point favorites here because Brett Farr, Brett Favre has a bad ankle.
And uh so forth and so on.
It's anyway.
I'm just excited it's back.
I I just you know, there's every Monday night now for the next six months, there's football.
Dallas and Washington on Sunday.
Yeah, and you ought to be happy with this.
Surely he's a uh Dallas fan.
This uh this is gonna be a rebuilding year for uh for the Redskins.
Mike Shanahan, who I've have met a couple times, a good guy.
Um I mean, they they got they got McNabb.
They're trying to win now.
They think they got enough roster, but it's gonna be tough to end.
And the Cowboys, well, they're gun enforced to be the first team ever to play the Super Bowl in their home stadium.
So, all in all, an exciting season, but there's some problems brewing out there in the NFL.
More blackouts may happen this year than ever before.
Uh, well, in recent, in recent years.
Uh, not all games are sold out.
One of the biggest problems the NFL's had is that you can get the games in high definition on TV now.
Anyway, talk about that, some other things as we reassemble tomorrow, my friends.
Be right back to wrap this up.
You know, I you know, I I know I was uh Monday was Labor Day, but I still can't believe tomorrow's Friday.
I mean, lickety split.
I'm glad it is.
It means we're closer to NFL opening day Sunday.
Um nevertheless, folks, great to be with you today, and looking forward to returning in a mere 21 hours to do it all over again.
