Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

Transition: Examining home fan etiquette ahead of the Bears-Packers showdown

07 Jan 2026

Transcription

Chapter 1: What is the significance of fan etiquette in football games?

1.398 - 15.812 Unknown

Listen, I know 65,000 people are not listening right now who will be at the game, but reach one, teach one. If 500 people who are going to be at the game are listening to this, tell your section to shut the hell up when Caleb Williams is on the field.

0

16.079 - 31.524 Matt Spiegel

What if Danny Parkins just ends up being the source of, like, ire and discussion, and while the Bears are on offense, too many people are talking to him, and then something happens? Because that's the level of mush I think I'm at right now mentally in writing this script.

0

31.544 - 34.729 Unknown

Wait a minute. Was he throwing shade at us saying only 500 people were listening?

0

35.435 - 48.755 Leila Rahimi

No, he was saying that he doesn't expect that all 65,000, they're going to be there. But even if he can get 500 people and then they tell someone.

0

48.775 - 50.758 Marshall Harris

He expected that one person was listening.

51.239 - 54.364 Matt Spiegel

Do they tell each other while the Bears are on offense? Is that the idea?

54.384 - 61.856 Marshall Harris

I'll say this. When I was there on the Saturday night against the Pack, what, three weeks ago or whatever that was, When you two were there. That's right.

Chapter 2: How can fans enhance the game experience for players?

62.057 - 70.694 Marshall Harris

Marshall, when people were talking on offense, the guys in my section were pissed. And were like yelling at them. Come on, we're on offense. I was sitting next to the Packers fans.

0

70.714 - 75.343 Matt Spiegel

Did you see how they were creating more noise during the noise to stop the noise?

0

75.363 - 80.751 Leila Rahimi

And then they stopped. There used to be a video like Bears at Work. It's still there.

0

81.252 - 90.544 Matt Spiegel

It's still on the Jumbotron every time. Bears at Work is cute, but it doesn't get the job done in 2026. Like the Lions have something that circles at Ford Field that just says in Lions font, QUIET.

0

91.285 - 96.011 Marshall Harris

I like that. Might need to be a little more direct. What if it just said STFU on the board?

96.071 - 96.512 Unknown

Would that work?

Chapter 3: What impact does noise level have during offensive plays?

96.612 - 100.277 Matt Spiegel

That would never happen as long as the McCaskey's family owns the Bears.

0

100.297 - 101.318 Unknown

Yeah, that's not happening.

0

101.298 - 119.946 Matt Spiegel

Thanks to our guests. Thanks to Mike Florio. Thanks to Chris Emma. And yes, Danny Parkins. You can look for him in an orange robe at the game on Saturday. And I pray to everything holy he doesn't mush this. Thanks to Tyler Buterbaugh, Ray Diaz, Brayden Fryer helping us out, Connor O'Donnell, Jacob Stutz, and Max Curtis.

0

119.986 - 126.917 Matt Spiegel

And yeah, why do I feel like this is going to turn into some sort of like Shakespearean tragedy with Danny asking this?

0

127.032 - 127.733 Unknown

That won't be it.

127.833 - 131.478 Matt Spiegel

If they lose, it's going to be because... Why are you so confident that won't be it?

131.518 - 139.248 Unknown

I'm saying he won't be the reason they lose. If they lose, it's because they couldn't figure out how to stop anybody and then Caleb waited too late to start playing offense. People will blame Danny.

Chapter 4: How do different teams manage crowd noise and distractions?

139.328 - 140.87 Matt Spiegel

I get it. I get it.

0

140.89 - 142.372 Unknown

I'm here to defend that part of it.

0

142.552 - 146.577 Matt Spiegel

What's all this all-in-the-past talk?

0

146.557 - 161.319 Marshall Harris

We have that going against the Wayne Larravee willing dagger when asked to be an effing jukebox yesterday. So what has more power? The Parkins mush coming back into person or Wayne doing a dagger before the game?

0

161.36 - 164.224 Unknown

These are all good questions. Wait, Wayne did a dagger already?

164.284 - 171.535 Marshall Harris

Yeah, some talk show host asked him to talk about Josh Jacobs scoring a touchdown, how that would be the dagger, and he half-heartedly did it.

171.515 - 177.52 Leila Rahimi

He asked him to give a call of a three-yard Josh Jacobs touchdown. And there's the touchdown dagger.

177.821 - 180.463 Matt Spiegel

Are we sure it wasn't Grody just as Wayne Larravee?

180.623 - 187.87 Leila Rahimi

No, it was actually, there was video of it and everything. And I felt bad for Wayne.

Chapter 5: What humorous strategies are suggested for handling rival fans?

188.33 - 211.272 Leila Rahimi

He was at like a remote. So he's in front of a crowd of people and it's like, oh, okay, I guess I'll do that thing. I guess I'll say, homie, don't play that. Oh! I guess I'll do that. Did I do that? Yeah. Same thing. Exactly. Buckwheat O-Tay. Exactly. Cowabunga. This is what. Don O'Malley. You know, make me a bicycle clown.

0

Chapter 6: What are the implications of mixed fan households during game day?

211.973 - 213.835 Leila Rahimi

Go ahead and make that bicycle, Wayne.

0

213.855 - 235.401 Unknown

Let's pretend it's Saturday night. Josh Jacobs plows into the end zone, right? Easy here. That's the game win. Give us a little example of what that's going to sound like. Can you just give us a little taste of that, Dwayne? Come on. Just do it, right? All right, here we go. Josh Jacobs, three-yard touchdown run. Packers... Second and goal at the three-yard line of Chicago. Here we go.

0

235.442 - 237.184 Unknown

Hand off to Jacobson.

0

Chapter 7: How do personal anecdotes reflect on fan experiences at games?

237.244 - 254.27 Unknown

Why not? Plows up the middle. Carries bodies into the end zone. And there is your dagger. There you go. Yes. And boom goes the dynamite. No, but really. Bears by 100. Yeah. See, now that I've heard that, that does more than just cancel out Danny.

0

254.53 - 261.681 Matt Spiegel

That's the voice of the freaking team. Danny's last game he attended in person was the double doink.

0

262.1 - 266.929 Leila Rahimi

Oh, I didn't realize that. He told us that and then said all the things that he says when he comes on with us.

0

Chapter 8: What are the upcoming game predictions and expectations?

266.969 - 268.111 Matt Spiegel

Now what do you think, huh?

0

268.131 - 283.18 Leila Rahimi

Shout out to our guy, Ricardo, because Ricardo is a listener of the Spiegel and Holmes show. And he was the guy going, no, no, no, no, no. Well, hey, hold up. Because he's a Bears fan. Like, he's actually doing the job. Unlike Rami...

0

284.02 - 289.03 Marshall Harris

Oh. Triple agent. No, no, no. Quadruple agent. I think it's a quintuple agent by now.

0

289.05 - 291.575 Matt Spiegel

Does that just mean he runs around in a circle the whole time?

0

291.595 - 296.625 Marshall Harris

Pretty much. It's like spy versus spy, but he's both spies. You know? Just like shooting at himself.

296.645 - 302.316 Leila Rahimi

He's like everyone in the Spider-Man meme. He's Moon Knight. He's out here. Oh, I don't even remember. Did that happen?

302.296 - 311.109 Matt Spiegel

I like how you guys just keep adding agencies that he's got to report to. Yeah, exactly. He's basically defaulted into, like, Adriana from The Sopranos.

311.149 - 315.815 Leila Rahimi

And the best part is that he's a wonderful human being, and we love him very much.

315.855 - 321.323 Marshall Harris

But soon he's going to overtake Greenland. Rami's going to do that. Any minute here.
