**Craig Carton** (0:00)
You know how we do.

**Bart Scott** (0:01)
Look at that, we got the old people coming from all the way from upstairs in sales. You know what I'm saying? Who came first? Ace Nurse.

**Craig Carton** (0:06)
You know, just walked up in the building, you know what I'm saying?

**Bart Scott** (0:09)
He ain't seen his old buddy in but five years.

**Craig Carton** (0:11)
Yeah, big stars here. People like to come down and check it out. Is that really Bart Scott?

**Bart Scott** (0:15)
It's crazy. Like, I'm looking at the Odyssey and everything they do. Is it just like recency bias that we're painting the whole thing to look like the Knicks?
Are we?

**Chris McMonigle** (0:28)
Nah, they've been pulling on us the whole time.

**Craig Carton** (0:32)
By the way, I wouldn't put it past them, the Knicks are the champions.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:34)
Yeah.

**Craig Carton** (0:35)
Yeah. A couple of quickies before we get back to your calls, get Bart Scott's take on CeeDee Lamb. Obviously, very talented wide receiver was reportedly spotted holding hands with a gal named Megan Denise.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:49)
All right.

**Craig Carton** (0:49)
So why is that a problem? Well, Megan Denise is Von Miller's ex-girlfriend. Von Miller's now a Dallas Cowboy.

**Bart Scott** (0:55)
They used to hold each other down for a minute. That's going to be awkward when you talk about- Don't you think? You know what I'm saying? Unless, yeah.
That's a conversation that has to happen. If I'm Von, you're welcome. I taught her that.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:10)
You know what I'm saying, son?

**Craig Carton** (1:11)
Wheezy taught me.

**Bart Scott** (1:13)
You're going to be sitting over there. How can Von not be there flirting with her? Yeah.

**Craig Carton** (1:17)
I know you miss me. It's the Chris Rock end of that song. How did you learn how to do that? Wheezy taught me.
It does remind me though, the Yankees have a similar situation.

**Bart Scott** (1:29)
They do?

**Craig Carton** (1:30)
Where Cody Bellinger's wife used to date John Carlos Stanton. Wow.
I don't think I could do that.

**Bart Scott** (1:37)
They're all in a circle, man. See, this is the thing, like everybody's fishing in the same pond.

**Craig Carton** (1:40)
It seems like it, right?

**Bart Scott** (1:41)
Why don't you go to somewhere else? Why don't you go to the Pacific Ocean somewhere, man?

**Craig Carton** (1:44)
Is there a different body of water you can get fishing?

**Bart Scott** (1:48)
I used to call it the Hood Rat Olympics. So you would see the same girl or the same group of girls at the Super Bowl, the Pro Bowl, and the All-Star game. It was like the Holy Trinity.
Like you see them all, like, bro.

**Craig Carton** (2:04)
Checking into the hotel. No, exactly.

**Bart Scott** (2:07)
Oh, you play sports like a chick? Come on, man. But every once in a while, you knew when they came to the Pro Bowl, at least when I played, that they were professionals and they had a lot of money because it was in Hawaii.

**Craig Carton** (2:18)
Yes, right.

**Bart Scott** (2:19)
So you came to Hawaii, like, oh, you dedicated.

**Craig Carton** (2:21)
And it's a one-way ticket they bought. The hope is that someone's paying for the ticket back.

**Bart Scott** (2:25)
Adipathy.

**Craig Carton** (2:27)
Back in the day, when I got to Philly, I was on the radio at WIP in Philly, I also covered the Eagles. And it was the Ray Rhodes Eagles, and I adored Ray. And their really good team was 95 It's a year that they beat the Lions in the playoffs and lost to the Cowboys.

**Bart Scott** (2:40)
Don't remind me, don't remind me, yeah.

**Craig Carton** (2:41)
Yeah, you know that, 58-35, Blue Mountain, right?
Earlier that year, they had a game in Seattle. So Ray Rhodes decided to give the guys a treat. Rather than go out on Saturday, which is when most teams travel, he told them, we're going to go out on Friday. Okay, and as you can speak to better than I can, that's one of the worst things you can do.

**Bart Scott** (3:03)
This is before Tinder, before they could take pictures of you.

**Craig Carton** (3:06)
It's before everything.

**Bart Scott** (3:07)
No records.

**Craig Carton** (3:08)
Yeah, so I'm single and I'm friendly with a bunch of the guys. So I get invited to go out for dinner and then to a club in this place and that place in Seattle. Okay. Now, back then, I assume it's the same now.
The players stay on a secured floor.
