00:00I do think this is a revenge game.
00:01Is it the biggest revenge game was my question.
00:04I think it is.
00:05I'm very bitter about.
00:07But who's the revenge on?
00:08Is it on Dallas or is it on the NFL?
00:11Because it's the officiating and it's the and it's that's what cost them the game.
00:16It's on both.
00:17It's on Dallas because I hate them now.
00:18I hate still what happened back to Pettigrew back in the day.
00:21I hate what happened last year.
00:24It seems like it's always against them.
00:26I want to go down there and I want to kick their butt.
00:28Like seriously, I want to go down there and I want to win 31-13.
00:31Like I want I want something like that where it's just I want to bitch slap them.
00:35I don't have that same thing towards the Niners right now.
00:38I because I think it was self-inflicted last year.
00:40What happened?
00:43You guys could answer it 248-539-9797 the way you view this Dallas Cowboy game revenge
00:48game biggest revenge game confidence level that they win and you can use the Tigers as
00:52a barometer more or less confident in the Lions and the Tigers this weekend.
00:55I mean, look, John is talking about like having revenge against the refs are going to wait
00:59for a Brad Allen referee game.
01:02We got to pray.
01:03I know, but that's why I said it's I don't think that like it's kind of the mystery of
01:08like who is the revenge against because you can't get revenge on the officials like, oh,
01:14we stuck one by you like I don't even know that how you would even trying to go about
01:19that because no, but Dallas wasn't the ones they were on the field when the injustice
01:25happened and they won the game because we feel because we were wronged that let them
01:32be your proxy.
01:33That's what I'm saying.
01:34They are the proxy.
01:35They are the one to which you can extract what's what's taken from you sit here and
01:39defend Dallas.
01:40I just I think that the Lions are a better team.
01:42They go out there and win because they're the better team.
01:45It's not going to be because of revenge.
01:48It's not going to be because oh, we're going to get you because you beat us last year,
01:51even though there was a bad call involved like that.
01:55I just I can't generate that type of animosity for Dallas.
02:00There's plenty of animosity for Dallas to begin with.
02:04They earned a win last year against Dallas.
02:07They converted the two point.
02:08It was wrongfully taken from them.
02:10They can't make that right.
02:11But the next best thing is to go down there and beat that football team.
02:14Maybe they're a stand in for the officials.
02:16Take what was taken from you.
02:18You're chasing the one seed this year.
02:19You're chasing the one seed last year.
02:21Go out there.
02:22Get your vengeance emotional.
02:24Maybe not practical as it may be.
02:27But John, I feel like this is the the revenge game on the schedule.
02:30San Francisco is a measuring stick game, but I don't think you get true revenge on them
02:33until it's the playoffs.
02:34I'd rather have revenge on Green Bay for what they did on Thanksgiving Day last year.
02:38How about the storm you caused, though, out of this in Dallas, if you go down there and
02:42kind of punch him in the face and it would be beautiful.
02:44You know, that's going to be the talk of the league next week.
02:47Does the city you cause that?
02:50Yeah.
02:51Is C.D. Lamb mouthing more, you know, slurs at Dak Prescott on the sidelines?
02:57Is Jerry Jones going to helicopter into practice and take players off the field?
03:01I mean, the theater of it all is worth rooting for.
03:04Also bothers me about this is it seems like the two times the Lions have gotten screwed
03:09against Dallas.
03:12It wasn't that big of a deal nationally.
03:15And to me, that's a sign of disrespect to Detroit, because if you reversed both calls,
03:21it would be out of control.
03:23The amount of attention it would get from all these national punters in Dallas converted
03:26a two point conversion.
03:28They reported and they screwed it up.
03:30Can you imagine?
03:31I hate them.
03:32You know, I hate that city.
03:34It just sounds whiny from us.
03:37Well then.
03:38Yeah.
03:39Well, OK, hold on.
03:40We have every right to complain if it sounds whiny.
03:41Fine.
03:42But I think you have every right to complain because Tom is right.
03:43Perception after that game.
03:45Do you realize what the undercurrent was?
03:46Well, the Lions were doing too much.
03:48They confuse and confuse the officials.
03:51They wrote him a handwritten note before the game, walked it over to him and explained
03:55what they were going to do.
03:56Nobody was confused.
03:57The referees botched it.
03:59I'm going to convince John to join us, OK?
04:03If they don't win this game, then Jim's going to get Dan all mad again next week.
04:09I'm not sure what I'm rooting for.
04:12Say it like you mean it, John.
04:15Listen, if he goes for it, he's going to ask, are you doing a good job?
04:18Oh, no.
04:19To Dan.
04:20Yeah.
04:21He had to come to the mic and rip his head off.
04:24You notice we had him on this week and he was like really defensive of the Tigers.
04:31And he said, all the people giving him crap this season, I'm like, is he talking to him?
04:37He doesn't just listen to when we talk about the Lions.
04:39He's a P1.
04:41If he brings up Matt Chapman to you at some point, the Tigers keep winning.
04:44Well, I think coaches don't want like most coaches don't want to be disrespectful.
04:48Dan's a good guy.
04:49It would be funny, though, if if, you know, we built that level of relationship with these
04:53guys where they could go, hey, you don't like what I did.
04:56You didn't like the Chapman.
04:57Like, exactly.
04:58The full circle of it all would be funny.
