So a lot of movement yesterday that may or may not mean anything.
when it comes to John Harbaugh and his decision on where he's going to coach this year coming up.
So first, the first thing that hits is you've seen this a lot now over the last number of years where a team will interview a head coaching candidate or a GM candidate and they will post on social media a picture of that guy and then they'll have the logo of the team and they'll say, we have completed an interview with so-and-so.
So out of nowhere yesterday, the Atlanta Falcons, boom, John Harbaugh's face, Falcons logos everywhere. We have completed an interview with John Harbaugh. So then everybody starts freaking out. Well, wait a second. Why? Falcons got the first? interview with John Harbaugh. I thought that the Giants were the ones. I don't understand this.
So as the day goes on, it turns out that John Harbaugh had conversations over the phone with several teams and the Falcons were one of those teams. And he had a conversation with Matt Ryan that wasn't really an interview with the Atlanta Falcons for whatever reason decided that they wanted to put that out there, which I think was weird.
So fast forward now a couple of hours and a guy we have mentioned many, many times on this show over the last week, Ian O'Connor, says that John Harbaugh and Chris Mara had met face to face. And Chris Barrow went down to see John Harbaugh. They had a lunch and then an informal meeting at John Harbaugh's house.
So this was the first time that any part of an ownership group had met with John Harbaugh. So now the Giants leapfrog in front of that. You know, it's amazing to be John Harbaugh these days.

Chapter 2: What makes John Harbaugh a sought-after coaching candidate?
You get fired over the phone by Steve Busciotti. You feel like crap. Everybody's just going crazy over you. Now the other 31 teams in the NFL, especially the ones that need a head coach. And then you think of how the Baltimore Ravens fan is reacting to this. Oh, sure. You know, I mean, so he is in. the ultimate catbird seat to be able to pick and choose wherever he wants to go.
And I love the fact that Chris Mara went down to go see him. That shows that the Giants are serious. That's ownership. That's somebody that went down to see him at his house. And that's how, you know, now John Harbaugh's agent is going to be playing this thing and is going to be trying to leverage all these different teams against each other.
And ultimately, maybe he's trying to push the Giants to a little bit more of whatever he wants, whatever he's looking for. Because I'm actually... I'm kind of excited that the Giants are still very much in this thing. Yeah, I mean, I still think that they are the favorites as we sit here right now.
And if the Giants can't land John Harbaugh, that is a real referendum on where the organization is right now because they are doing everything. Joe Shane is recruiting and saying that, hey, I'm going to work collaboratively with you. I want to hear your input on the whatever you need. I'm going to be here for you. Chris Mara going in person and traveling to him.
Just all of these things that you've seen the Giants do, it would be really tough to see him go somewhere else. Now, we've talked about the Falcons. We've talked about the Dolphins. We talked about the Green Bay Packers and the Philadelphia
Eagles as possibilities it doesn't look like those last two are going to be open but then Mike Garofalo drops out of the sky yesterday to make Giant fans feel nervous again and I love Mike Garofalo he puts this out there he goes as we wait for John Harbaugh to finalize his interviews sources say he likes what he sees in the Titans
Cam Ward, $100 million in cap space, high picks, new stadium, GM Mike Borgonzi. He says, not saying he's going to Tennessee, just that for now, I expect them to be firmly in the mix. Ownership, ownership, ownership. And that's Amy Adams' scrunk, right? Yes. Is it scrunk or strunk? Strunk. I think it's strunk. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Strunk. Skeet, skeet. Yeah, okay.
I could see that too, but I don't know. I still feel like the perfect spot for him is here, or if he is going to get wooed by Stephen Ross of the Dolphins. Yeah, and until that goes away or isn't an option, he's always lurking in the shadows.
Now, when Mike Garofalo puts out something like that, it's almost as if you talk about agents and drumming up interest and how you get more money out of somewhere. It's like, okay, as soon as the Giants start to feel good, it's almost like the agent puts something out there like, hey, throw out of this place is attractive. It's going to be interesting if the Seahawks, have a huge offensive game.

Chapter 3: How did the Texans dismantle the Steelers in their playoff game?
And I'm also sure that Kevin Stefanski had a great interview, too. I could imagine that they probably really, really like Kevin Stefanski, too. Yeah, I mean, we like him as well, and we've said many times that they could do a hell of a lot worse, and I'd be excited about Kevin Stefanski, but this thing has just grown now to the point where it's like you've got to have him.
And if he ends up picking a team like the Tennessee Titans over the New York Giants, that's going to be embarrassing. It just is. Now, I understand that... Tennessee, Nashville, new stadium, easier place to live, tax situation, all of these things, better weather. But, I mean... Not nearly the scrutiny either. Yeah, but we're talking about bringing the Giants back.
And I understand MetLife Stadium is a total dump, and I don't know where John Harbaugh would live, but I'm sure it would be a really nice area somewhere around here. It would have a wonderful house with all the millions of dollars that are going to get paid by the Giants. But John Harbaugh is a football guy, and bringing the Giants back to relevance and in the Champions League...
Like a championship conversation is a hell of a lot more, to me, fulfilling than it would be bringing the Tennessee Titans back. It's just that he is, you know, he's in his 60s. He's not in his 40s. 63? Yeah. I mean.
Chapter 4: What are Mike Tomlin's thoughts on the Steelers' playoff loss?
Hey, look, man. I got great vitality. You do? I'm a year older than him. Yeah, that's right. Get up every morning. Go to work. Enjoy myself with you idiots.
Chapter 5: What is Aaron Rodgers' current situation and future uncertainty?
Yeah. John Harbaugh, you don't even think about him being 63. It's almost like the way Pete Carroll was at 63. When you heard Pete Carroll was 63, you're like, he's 63?
Chapter 6: How does Jalen Hurts reflect on the Eagles' season performance?
Yeah. You feel the same way about John Harbaugh. Same thing about Ralph Macchio. Look at him. He's 64 years old. How is that possible? That's crazy. I mean, the guy saw with his own two eyes the Mets win the World Series in 1969. Ralph Macchio.
Chapter 7: What insights does Ben Johnson provide about the Packers?
So did I. Yeah, I know, but I know you well, and I know your age. It's Ralph Macchio. I can't get over that. I just can't. Some of these child actors, for whatever reason, they never grow up. They look the same all the time. Problem with being a child actor. Weird, isn't it? Like, Macaulay Culkin never looked like he ever grew up. How about the twins, the girls, the twins?
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Yeah, how about them? Yeah, true. Still look very young. Well, I was going to say Gary Coleman. Gary Coleman had like a, he was like a little guy, right? He had a thing happen and he wasn't, he just looked like a kid where he wasn't a kid, right? Yeah. Yeah, whatever that is, yes.
Chapter 8: What unique perspectives does Jaxson Dart share on his podcast appearance?
Whatever that is. There was, it wasn't, yeah, all right, I'm just saying. It wasn't like he – that's not a Ralph Macchio spot.
No, no, it's not. Gary Coleman.
No. Wasn't one of those. No. You know, Macaulay Culkin hasn't told his own kids that he's Kevin in Home Alone. Oh, come on. I'm serious. How old are his kids? I mean, they're – I don't know. How do you not tell your kids that? I don't know. He gets a kick out of it that they watch and they don't know. They have no idea. They have no idea. That's what he said many times in interviews.
wow yeah it's crazy i mean it's like it's his own like sick twisted way of you know entertaining himself i don't know why but that's what he does uh by the way you know what that guy uh daniel stern the one of the wet bandits you know the other yeah prostitution just got picked up did he really yeah oh boy i mean they were all just talking about they just had lunch together and where was this
It's like a question. It's funny. I always get on Gina for this, where I'll say something, and then she'll ask a question. I'm like, why is that detail important to you? It's very important to me. I'd like to know where this happened. All right. Let's see. Daniel Stern. Was it in LA? Constitution. Constitution. Home Alone star Daniel Stern cited for soliciting prostitution. Here we go. Yeah.
Home Alone actor was cited at a hotel in Camarillo, California.
Oh, there you go.
For trying to hire an escort. Yep. So misdemeanor spot for him. So he is, I think he's in his 70s now. So, you know. How's he look?
not bad no he looked terrible his mugshot he looked terrible boomer well i mean a mugshot's not supposed to look good i actually felt like if i was the prostitute dude i feel like oh my god this guy i mean he looked just shockingly bad i'm sure though that they've seen it all you know these hookers gotta do what you gotta do how old is he he's in his 70s right
