This is an iHeart Podcast. Guaranteed human.

5.228 - 21.811 Colin Cowherd

Hey guys, it's us, the Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions.

0

22.092 - 37.711 Colin Cowherd

Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it, but you know. Tired and sick. Tired and sick. Listen to Hey Jonas on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late night comedy guy. Not quite.

Winning on clay is an art. The rallies are relentless. And at the French Open, only the toughest survive. I'd know. I competed there for decades. Join me, Rene Stubbs, on the Rene Stubbs Tennis Podcast for no-nonsense breakdowns of the biggest matches, the toughest players, and the moments that define Roland Garros. Good to win. She's an outsider to win the French main. And she likes clay.

85.099 - 96.845 Rene Stubbs

Listen, Lena Rybakina is arguably the best player in the world right now and actually can win on any surface. Listen to the Renee Stubbs Tennis Podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal, but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential.

Chapter 2: How does Aaron Rodgers' retirement announcement impact his legacy?

557.023 - 573.735 Colin Cowherd

And I don't think Favre's the comp. I always thought Aaron's comp was Dan Marino. You want more titles, you want more trophies, right? Marino didn't get any. Aaron got one. But, God, they're beautiful throwers of the football. I mean, Aaron, like, throws with his feet not on the ground. It's like... It's like a magician. It's wild.

0

574.997 - 589.499 Colin Cowherd

But I always thought he was a little overvalued in his prime where people were saying he's better than Brady. I'm like, Brady's stacking trophies. What are we doing here? This is not baseball where we care about your stats. It's football. Show me your Lombardis. But now I think Aaron's actually massively undervalued.

0

589.98 - 617.31 Colin Cowherd

So I want to remind everybody, especially the media that keeps telling me he's really he's washed. He did win the AFC North last year over a stacked roster in Baltimore in Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrell, who played a handful of games, but he didn't win the North. By the way, at 41, he almost threw as many touchdown passes as Bo Nix, Josh Allen, and Sam Darnold with an awful receiving core.

0

618.131 - 638.315 Colin Cowherd

In fact, Aaron was the only quarterback in the league with this stat line. at least 65% completion percentage, at least 24 touchdowns, and seven or fewer interceptions. He was the only guy in the league. Bad receiving core, broken offensive culture, hit and miss offensive line, and an average running back room.

0

638.335 - 645.688 Colin Cowherd

In fact, PFF last year went and rated all wide receivers and tight ends in the league, right?

Chapter 3: When do quarterbacks typically know it's time to retire?

645.668 - 648.974 Colin Cowherd

Top 50. Steelers had nobody. Arizona had two.

0

Chapter 4: How do injuries affect team dynamics in the NBA playoffs?

650.597 - 671.655 Colin Cowherd

Okay, so you're talking about a broken offensive culture for years, a bad receiving room. I mean, I like Friar Muth, but, you know, whatever. They didn't have very good weapons. Offensive line until last year, Aaron gets some credit for this, was sort of disjointed. And so I and he carried him to 10 wins.

0

672.096 - 689.814 Colin Cowherd

And by the way, he had to win games against the Lions and the Ravens to get into the playoffs. And he was excellent against both considering what he was working with against Detroit. He had 270 yards, no turnovers against the Ravens. He had 290 yards and no turnovers. He had to win those games. Those are good teams. There was a lot of pressure.

0

690.154 - 713.819 Colin Cowherd

He had a one man receiving core and he won both games and played well. And people will say this, and this always happens. If the ending to the movie is bad, everybody said the movie is bad. Right? You could have had a good movie with a bad ending. People say, well, just see him against the Texans in the playoffs. Folks, Patrick Mahomes played the Texans. His passer rating that day, 19.

0

715.061 - 731.317 Colin Cowherd

Sam Darnold was engulfed, played his worst game against the Texans. Go look at Josh Allen against the Texans. The LA Rams had the number one offense in the league. They were a hot knife through butter against the Seahawks multiple times. And the Seahawks had a good defense.

0

731.337 - 754.161 Colin Cowherd

But when the Rams, McVay and Stafford and Pukunuku and Devontae Adams and all the fellas played the Texans, they couldn't move the ball. They couldn't pick up first downs. The Texans had the best defense in the NFL in at least half a decade. It's legion of boom good. So this idea, I always thought Aaron, and I was always like, Aaron's good. I think he's better than Favre. Stop with the Brady.

754.923 - 776.772 Colin Cowherd

I'm not even putting him in the Manning and Joe Montana space. Give me a break. He's great, but stop. Now it's ridiculous. Even people I respect in the media are like, he's not very good. He won the division. It was a good division. Lions-Ravens double use. Look at his stat line. Terrible receiving core. Broken offensive culture. RGI was like, guys, come on.

777.633 - 800.314 Colin Cowherd

He inherited a mess, a dysfunctional offensive culture. He's going to be good this year. They got Michael Pittman. He's going to be good. They're going to be good. They're going to vie for the division. First seven weeks, totally. He could go 6-1, 7-0. I have become the life preserver of sanity with Aaron Rodgers. Here's RG3 yesterday.

801.847 - 817.323 Unknown

I think Aaron Rodgers is one of the all-time greats. But I also think that him coming back to the Pittsburgh Steelers makes them legit AFC North title contenders and legit Super Bowl contenders as well. He's got DK Metcalf. They bring in Michael Pittman Jr. from the Colts. They draft Jeremy Bernard from Alabama.

817.723 - 831.617 Unknown

And now he's got six foot four, six foot four, six foot one wide receivers out there that he's used to throwing the ball to. And he wouldn't come back and partner with the guy that he won a Super Bowl with in Mike McCarthy in Green Bay if he didn't feel like they could win it all.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of Oklahoma City's reliance on SGA during the playoffs?

986.325 - 1007.055 Colin Cowherd

If you lost an 18-point lead, it was devastating. I think you just lose leads now. So, I mean, there was never in my lifetime in the NBA. You'll see stuff now where it's like a 30 to eight run. Like, that's not that abnormal. In the NBA, there was a run. I forget. It was during the regular season. I swear to God, it was like 28-0. Yeah.

0

1007.296 - 1013.725 Colin Cowherd

Colin, this was the biggest blown lead, I believe, in the last 13 years of the NBA Plus.

0

1013.945 - 1019.413 Jason McIntyre

So as a result, I like the way you're attacking this. How does Cleveland bounce back? I bet the Knicks first half.

0

1019.433 - 1036.518 Colin Cowherd

I think the Knicks, who ended this game hot as hell, they made six of their last nine threes. They got in that zone, that rhythm. They were like, okay, this is what works. This is what doesn't. Quick hook on Josh Hart, who's a non-shooter. And I think the Knicks run out. I don't know if they'll run away and hide, but I think they come out smoking hot in the first half. Yeah.

0

1038.24 - 1064.133 Colin Cowherd

Yeah, the staff found this. Yeah, this was it. Remember when the Raptors went on a 31-0 run against the Magic in March? And Orlando's got talent. Yeah. So, I mean, everybody's saying, oh, the Cavs. You've got veteran guys with the ball in their hands. You've got a good staff. You've got guys with some mileage on there. This is the new NBA. You lose leads quickly.

1064.173 - 1081.89 Colin Cowherd

Now, a 22-point lead with nine to go. But again, the Knicks were a great fourth-quarter team. You were on the road. Brunson's an elite scorer. It's not the first time he's been hot. He's one of the best fourth-quarter players in the last decade in the league. The Knicks do that to people. Knicks did that to a lot of teams over the last couple years.

0

1689.818 - 1709.863 Colin Cowherd

So how did we actually come up with the name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it, and... Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this.

0

1710.264 - 1720.998 Jason McIntyre

We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, hey, Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.

1721.499 - 1722.921 Colin Cowherd

But thanks for remembering that, guys.

I'm Michelle McPhee, and this is one of the most shocking criminal conspiracies I've ever come across.

When Jacob met Levant, this went to a billion dollar fraud.
