Aaron, I've got pep in my step. I saw a real football today and it was awesome. Let me just give you a quick breakdown of practice. Some dispatches coming.

Into this thing. Yesterday. The storyline was that there was a bunch of fights and there was a question as to whether they would practice and pads again today and go all out because yesterday there were fights. No one got hurt, thank god. But one of the key things was Daniel Jones got involved in a fight in a Red Jersey yesterday, came in, popped himself in and he didn't do much, but the fact that he was there, and the question was, you know, what's he doing? And the other question is do we kind of like it? Daniel Jones not exactly known as that guy. Uh spent the entire offseason with Hard Knocks, you know, being on them talking about other quarterbacks and gosh it was and obviously everyone seems to be writing off Daniel Jones. Then sure enough there was in the mix yesterday. We fast forward to today, which is Tuesday, and I get there with my colleague Kyle Brandt. We get there nice and early, and there's like a buzz in the air because it's open to fans. These two teams would add it head to head, and today it's like round two. Let me explain the Lions. There's something there to them that maybe we at home look at it as this cool Cinderella story, but like they kind of walked that walk, and they kind of talked that. If I'm being honest, like I'm watching these guys, they carry themselves as a team that went to the NFC Championship game. They've got a bunch of alphas in that roster. I mean, we were talking about Panay Suwell might be the most horrifying offensive tackle outside of Trent Williams Aden Hutchinson. He does the thing where he tucks his jersey in so you could see his abs like he's like an old school like, you know, he rolls it up old school defensive linemen, like from a different era, and he is coming into his own Jamier Gibbs, he walks that walk. He is that guy. And then there's a mon Ross Saint Brown, who his father is a mister World bodybuilder, and he kind of walks that walk in if he saw the receiver on Netflix.

He knows sixteen names of receivers who were taken before him, and he knows every single one of those players when they were selected, in what college they went to. They have a giant chip on their shoulder, and they come in here and they've got a bunch of swagger, and you know, they walk in and last year it was this aw shucks team and they.

No no, no, no, no, no. They are one of the biggest teams in the league. They're one of the most physical teams in the league. And as they got to the to New Jersey yesterday, I think there were some issues with the with the plane on the tarmac. I don't know all the details there, but like there was a pissed off vibe from the Lions, which I kind of like, and it's one of these where it's like, last year wasn't a one year wonder. Last year wasn't one of these deals where it was an overnight success. They all got paid this offseason, a lot of them, whether it be Decker or whether it be Aman Ross, Saint Brown, or whether it be Jared Goff, they all got paid. And like these are made men and they are no longer the Hunters and this aw shuck story. They're gonna play at noon on Thanksgiving. Let's just hope they don't get blown out that one day when we see them on national TV. This is one of the best teams in football.

So they come in with all this and Aaron, I'll tell you this, a lot of Lions fans there. You live in Brooklyn, you grew up on the like, like I see.

So they come in with all this and Aaron, I'll tell you this, a lot of Lions fans there. You live in Brooklyn, you grew up on the like, like I see.

A lot of Steelers fans everywhere I go. I see, of course, Eagles fans everywhere we go, especially in New York. I don't see a ton of Lions fans. Like Lions fans showed up at these joint practices and it was cool, Like you get there and you've got this Lions team that comes in like they're the big bad you know, bad asses and all this stuff. Then there's this Giants team that's like, we've just been beating up, talked down to, ridiculed, made a mockery of over the past twelve months. And it's like, what if we had a healthy quarterback, what if we beefed up our offensive line, what if we added some talented players on the what if we added Brian Burns, one of the best pass users in football. Like what You've got these two different teams with chips on their shoulders. They've only been practicing against each other the first few weeks of training camp. They finally get after it and day one their's fisticos, it gets broken up. Day two it starts off and I'm telling you, eron. I don't know if I've ever seen a receiver put on a show like Milik Neighbors put on today. And I haven't read Twitter, I haven't read Giants Twitter. I haven't done anything literally off the practice field talking to you right now. I think Milik Neighbors had I counted seven different targets when the Ones are playing the Ones. I think he caught all seven having a field day on Terry and Arnold, the rookie from the Detroit Lions, having a field day on you know, I saw Kirby Joseph, who's a star player on the Lions. He was just catching balls over him.

So Milik Neighbors is eating them alive, eating them alive, eating them alive. Milik Neighbors catches a ball and on the way back to the huddle like taps Terry and Arnold, who a tap is more than a tap.

Terry Arnold, who is a first round pick out of Alabama. I remember Neighbors, the first round pick out at LSU.

Terry Arnold, who is a first round pick out of Alabama. I remember Neighbors, the first round pick out at LSU.

Arnold pushes him and then Neighbors immediately gets involved and pushes back, and then all of a sudden, there's punches being thrown right in front of us as we're set up there for Good Morning Football. And this is the number six pick in the draft, and I think the number twenty three pick in the draft. Neighbors and Arnold, and then Kirby Joseph, who was an interception machine last year for the Lions.

He's a recent, you know, draft pick out of Illinois. He comes flying in and it's a haha, it's a fracas, it's whatever you want to call it. And I'm watching this with Kyle Brant, We're like, this is freaking awesome. Now, do we want any to get hurt? No, but the intensity was so high and I don't have I don't do the keep track of like what it was. But like Daniel Jones looks really good, Jared Golf looked really good. But Malik Neighbors put on an absolute show. And from everyone who is there, on Monday is the second straight day he's done that. Aaron, are we ready to get all aboard the Malik Neighbors hype train? Okay?

And I mean, Neighbors looks incredible, amazing, And that was in a June practice you were watching.

And I mean, Neighbors looks incredible, amazing, And that was in a June practice you were watching.

Yeah, And I've seen a couple of clips of you know, some big high overhead ball like catches that he's made from Daneer Jones so far, and you know, we're getting a lot of Marvin Harrison talk and and we're getting we're seeing Caleb on the field with Rome and I want Malik to be incredible. I want I'm not a Giants fan, that's fine. I want the days of like Obj catching the one handed passes, like making the Giants exciting. So I am I would love it if he's great.

You watched Tard Knocks. There was this really cool distinction made during the draft process of whether this guy is a diva or this guy is one of those dudes that just has an incredible competitive edge because apparently when he was at LSU, if he didn't get the ball, he barked and he complained and he would let everyone know about it. And that's a pain in the ass for a quarterback, especially if you're gonna be a rookie in the NFL.

He said that it's pilates not putting a ton of food in his mouth, calorie watching, and he says, Zen, just being chill, this is what it was. It helped him lose weight, so this is what is. He also says he yo Yo's way up and way down over the course of his life. So he could put on the sixty real quick, he said, And I'm like, please, don't, please, don't do that. Like you look great, you look the best you've looked.

But I asked him just that question about neighbors, about why he was so convicted in him, and why he believed that this guy is all the good things of competitiveness, not the bad things that you get with some wide receivers, especially if they're not getting the ball early on.

I love this guy, Brian Dable. We've had him on the podcast before. I consider him a friend. If I'm a little too chummy with him, you got to Understan and why. I've known this guy for twenty years and I really respect the hot of him and I'm rooting for him to get back to where he was when he was Coach of the Year two years ago, as opposed to last year where the team took a dip with no further ado. Here was Brian Dable earlier today before Giants practice.

Here and like, here comes this Lions team that went to the NFC Championship a year ago, coming in as the hunted and the Giants are like, we're not, you know, walking into our building and bushing us around. Like you have to love even if there are fights, you have to love that your team came ready to play.

Yeah, and that's why we practice against Detroit. One of my appreciation for Dan and how he runs things and and their team ultimately, but it was a competitive, spirited practice. You know, we got to clean up a few things here technique wise, clean up some stuff on the in the scuffles. We don't want a bunch of those, but definitely got a lot of good work out of it yesterday and looking to do the same today.

We don't want a bunch of those, but definitely got a lot of good work out of it yesterday and looking to do the same today.

You know, you see the scuffles in every camp. You do not often see a guy in a red jersey flying into the scuffle to shove a guy who's entangled up with his teammate. You don't want to see Daniel Jones get hurt. You want to seem that dude. It's bad ass to see the quarterback and have his guys back. I think the fans relate. We liked it.

He said, I got my guys back. I said, all right, just just make sure you're asked, don't get hurt.

So yeah, I think the guys have a lot of respect for him. They always have the way he approaches things. But there's definitely something cool for the lineman and for the defensive guys to see with their quarterback.

To coach Saban, he said, two players are guys that just terrorized him, brock Bowers at Georgia and Neighbors at LSU. It felt like wire to wire Neighbors was your guy. You deny on him, now you got him in the building, talk about your love for him in the pre draft process and what you've seen now that he's here.

You know, you're getting done with the season, doing some end of the year things, and then you know all the scouts are way ahead of you, so you bring your computers. You start watching guys, and I started watching him, and I just kept watching him.

I didn't watch a whole lot of other players when I was there. I watched them near all his tape.

Yeah, because you love the style that he plays with the competitive spirit. He's big, physical, he made plays down the field, catching runs, So kind of got a little addicted to watching, you know how he played in a competitive obviously league. And then you know, the more you watch him and you go back and you look at different things. You know, he was a guy that you know, was obviously high on my list and our list as the process went on. He's he's done a good job since he's been here. He's picked things well, picked up things well, and he's had a good start day.

Yeah, there's this cool delineation in the episode where he's a talker, he wants the ball, and I think you say, like there's a difference between being selfish and there's just having been a dog.

Yeah, there's this cool delineation in the episode where he's a talker, he wants the ball, and I think you say, like there's a difference between being selfish and there's just having been a dog.
