What are Mike Florio's thoughts on the NFL coaching carousel?
Toyota, let's go places.
This hour is being sponsored by AlmostFreeTeeth.com, affordable implants, life-changing smiles. Ladies and gentlemen, joining us now is a man who's got a massive brain.
Mike Florio.
He used to be a lawyer, then he decided to take his talents to the internet.
NBC Sports. I'm sorry I'm late. I was talking to Robert Kraft. That isn't the time for an airing of grievances. Pro Football Talk. I got a lot of problems with you people. Now, you're going to hear about it. On Chicago Sports Radio, 670 The Score.
Yes, sir. Mike Florio is indeed the creator and editor-in-chief of Pro Football Talk.
How do the Cubs' offseason moves impact their playoff chances?
Joining us now on the Circa Resort and Casino Hotline is Mike Florio. Circalasvegas.com. Mike, how are you?
You know, I am a child because I look forward to the ability to flash the thumbs and activate the fireworks. And I've learned you only get one chance to do it. After you do it the first time, the thumbs don't work anymore.
Okay, we'll be monitoring you. We'll be monitoring the situation. I'm sure our friends on Twitch will be monitoring the situation. Things are so good here, by the way, Florio, that we just did an hour of radio on the following question. Is Caleb Williams the greatest quarterback in Bears history? We can do that in Chicago, Mike.
Wow. And I'll give you a little... A little nugget that I picked up yesterday from Chris Sims.
What insights does Mike Florio share about the Steelers' coaching decision?
We do PFT Live three or four times a week. He ran into Michael J. Fox, of all people, last weekend at dinner. And Michael J. Fox is a big Caleb Williams fan. So he has that going for him, which is nice. That is nice.
Anytime one of the Keatons gets on board, that's when you know you're doing well in life, at least financially, because I know how Mr. Keaton rolls. Listen...
Now I'm running through all the names. We had Alex P. Alex P. We had Mallory.
Mallory, yeah. Yo, Mallory. Who's dad's name? The boyfriend was Nick, right? Remember Nick? Hey, yo, Mallory.
How does the Hall of Fame voting process affect player legacies?
The meathead, yes. See, now I really am acting like a boomer. That's family ties for all of you who are not quite to the boomer stage of your life, like Mark Grody is. Which we are not. But if you're over 37, you're a boomer. Yeah, he was called a boomer earlier today. I think it hit him a little hard, Mike. And I said, there's nothing wrong with being a boomer. That just means you have lived a good long life. That's all that that means.
Hey, if we're lucky, we're all going to get there. That was how I dealt with, I think, turning 40. Mitch Albom's book, Tuesdays with Maury, was a great perspective check. Like, The idea is we all get one ride from cradle to grave.
What challenges do the Steelers face with their new head coach?
And the goal is to keep the grave part from happening as long as possible. Yeah. And to live every moment, every year, get the most out of everything that we do. And so, I don't care. 40 bothered me more than 60. The only one that bothered me really was 23. Because you spend your whole life getting older and looking forward to something. I can drive when I'm 16, I can vote when I'm 18, I can drink when I'm 21. You get to 22, you're still 21. You get to 23 and it's like, there's really no other number to aspire to. There's no other good number out there.
I would argue 25 just because you can rent a car without paying the extra surcharge. That'd be my number.
