What are the biggest concerns about the Bears' matchup against the Rams?
You should not have had a problem with the Brewers and their L flag, okay? You should not have had a problem with Aaron Rodgers saying, I own you. You should not have a problem with Ben Johnson's cold handshake or saying, F the Packers. Trash talk in sports is good. Less hate in the world, more hate in sports.
He's Danny Parkins, and he approves that message. This is Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 670 The Score. Thanks to Danny, one of our guests today. Thanks to Olin Cruz for joining us. Thanks to Mike Florio. Thanks to Mark Grody for joining us from Hollis Hall. And thanks to everybody who was a part of this one. Ray Diaz, Tyler Biederbaugh, Brandon Fryer, Connor O'Donnell, Jacob Stutz, and Max Curtis.
Big thanks also to Courtney Turner, who gave us the backdrop of the day with the Sonoma looks in the background from Wine Country.
How does trash talk influence sports culture?
Now we've got to figure out what other family event of Courtney Turner's we have to disrupt. So we'll get on that. Yeah, absolutely. And now we get to see Lawrence Holmes and Carmen Vitale in studio. Hey, guys. Hi.
What's happening? What y'all got going on?
A lot's going on, man.
What you been got going on?
It's like the afterglow of a Bears-Packers week, but we got another game to talk about. Is today TTP Industries? Are we good?
Well, we're... Turn the Page Industries has decided that we're going to turn the page tomorrow. But you know how sometimes you open a book and you just check the chapters? Okay. Carmen's going to check the next chapter for us. She's not going to turn the page, but she's going to check the next chapter and let us choose our own adventure tomorrow.
She has definitely gone through the table of contents.
Yes. She is going to help us with some subheadings in the table of contents on the next chapter.
Just to Just a short little thing. Not a full preview, not a full turn the page, but just kind of a peek. And we're going to do it towards the end of the show.
Yeah. So it matches up with turn the page industries.
Can I ask one question and just get a one word answer from you? Sure. What is your number one concern about Sunday? Just one word. Bears. That's Bears. That's Bears.
Bears. Stafford.
Stafford. Okay. Mine would just be start.
Start.
Oh, getting off to a quick start. I mean, I would like to see a track meet where, you know... The two teams get out of the gates, get out of the starting blocks.
Well, look, the Bears actually started okay against the Packers. They stalled that first series, but it wasn't like they were three and out and punting the ball. The consistency is what you want to see.
What insights do Laurence Holmes and Carmen Vitali share about the Bears' performance?
You want to see from quarter one through quarter four so they maybe don't have to do all of the crazy heroic stuff in quarter four.
Yeah, that's fair. What's your word? Thirteen. Thirteen. Oh, I like that. And probably not in the way you think. So we'll see. We're going to talk about it. Okay. That's a tease. Did we turn the chapter? That is what you call in the industry, ladies and gentlemen, a tease.
A tease. It's definitely a tease. Yeah, so Carmen's in for speaks today while he finishes Hell Week. Do we know the actual dates of each event? I think it was yesterday and today. Okay. Hell Week. Yes.
His wife and his child's birthday. Hell Week is usually referred to like two days at a training camp in like 100 degree weather or something.
The military. Yeah. Stuff like that.
Or even like your Orange Theory Hell Week.
Yes. I know that they do Hell Week.
Is that a thing? Yeah, they do Hell Week. I have enough friends that do Orange Theory that like, yeah.
I went to an Orange Theory class while I was in Philly, and I was like, oh, this is why I don't do Orange Theory.
See, I like it because I like someone yelling at me.
Really?
Yes! I love it. Like, I want somebody in my face telling me, like, you can't do this. You can't do this. Like, go faster. What are you talking about? Like, I need someone just, like, in my ear yelling at me. That is years of taking dance.
That is years of taking dance.
That is 100% what that is. That is my dance teachers in my ear being like, point your toe! Turn out!
