Just when you thought we were done with Tush Push content, we got the behind-the-scenes story on Jeffrey Lurie's impassioned plea for the NFL's owners to stave off extinction for our beloved Eagles' butts. The secret? A callback to the puberties of yore, much to the chagrin of the sanctimonious puppet Troy Vincent. Hooray for Jeffrey Lurie and sex positivity. Join Deniz Selman, Fran Duffy, Zach Berman and Bo Wulf, who have all experienced puberty themselves, for an important Eagles roundtable.

Today's guest is Ted Winsley, the chaplain for the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. In this podcast, he shares how he went from working with Daymond John (FUBU) to serving as the Eagles chaplain these past twenty-three years.

Ted details his chapel and Bible study ministry with both the players and coaches including their recent Super Bowl experience. Be sure to listen to the very end as Ted describes the spiritual journey of the Eagles Brandon Graham including BG's "covenant of purity".

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.golongtd.comThe underbelly of this league is often gruesome. Sadly, the NFL itself chooses to ignore that underbelly. That's why Ryan Leaf has become so valuable to droves of former players — he's living proof. Many remember Leaf as the quarterback drafted No. 2 overall after Peyton Manning, the “bust” who threw 14 touchdowns, 36 interceptions and washed out of the sport. But everything that's happened since he left the NFL is the real story. Leaf battled severe depression and eight years of opioid abuse. Breaking into the homes of friends to steal Oxycodone and Vicodin, his addiction was out of control. Leaf attempted suicide, slicing his wrist with a dull life. He once considered letting his car run in his parents' closed garage so they'd find him.Leaf spent 32 months in prison.Leaf completely turned his life.The goal of our new show — “How the NFL Works” — is to bring you football in its most unfiltered form, so it only makes sense to bring on the man unafraid to reveal what life's like for players after the whistle. Because Leaf also knows this: He's not alone. He has become a go-to resource for players throughout the NFL. Original Go Long readers may remember the QB's first visit with us, shortly after former NFL wideout Vincent Jackson tragically died. (It was very emotional.)For an hour here, we take the conversation a step further. Audio is above. Video is below. Written transcript coming soon. A few topics discussed…* How he has linked up with ex-players at the Menninger Clinic in Houston.* Why he views the NFL as a “propaganda” and “money-printing” machine. Criticize the NFL and there's a good chance you're not welcomed onto the league's morning show. * Troy Vincent. He's got a problem with the league's executive vice president of football operations. * Conversations with struggling ex-players. Many, like him, are having suicidal ideation. He takes listeners into this cruel world that's not broadcast to the masses. His message to guys: “You could move mountains 100 times what you did as a football player.”* The “identity crisis” players face once they enter the real world after a life in football. * Leaf's prison roommate convinced him to teach other inmates how to read. This gave Leaf a sense of purpose, even if he didn't see it at the time. That sense of purpose changed everything in his life. Still, by no means does Leaf want people thinking a flip was switched and he's in the clear. Staying sober for 12 years (and counting) is a daily struggle. He nearly relapsed right when he got out of prison, then again years later. Leaf relives both days in immense detail. * Painkillers in football. They keep players on the field, but at what cost? It was a problem when Leaf played, and he's heard it's still a problem. * Today? Leaf is happily married with two kids, calls college football games, does work with the Menninger Clinic and started a new venture with “The Last Mile,” in which the ex-QB helps current inmates learn a skill they can take into the workforce once they're released. This work will also be featured on a new SiriusXM radio show. * Leaf recently walked into the prison in which he was incarcerated. The anxiety was overwhelming. He saw the same guards who treated him poorly. Then, he remembered his larger purpose. * What should the NFL do to help retirees?Thank you for reading, listening, watching and sharing Go Long with a friend.Have a question?

Making it to the NFL is the dream of countless young boys and men across the nation. Less than 2-percent of college football players will make it to the NFL. For those who do make it, before they can don the uniform of a professional team and see those dreams realized, they must be selected in the NFL draft. Draft day is like winning the lottery for those selected to play on an NFL team, but the draft isn't without its critics who find the process dehumanizing. Former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick and football executive Troy Vincent liken the process to a modern day slave auction. With the NFL draft taking place later this month, we check in with Dave Zirin, sports editor of The Nation and author of The Kaepernick Effect, about the state of its draft and how it stacks up against other professional sports. 

Think you have what it takes. I doubt it. These cats at the combine have been training their entire life to leave a lasting impression regardless of what Troy Vincent may think. We look at studs, duds and eye popping numbers. Who helped themself and who, well, who dropped from millions to the 3rd round or worse out fo the draft talk.  This episode sets up the free agency talk and all the tags that have happened thus far that we know. Lamar, Lamar where for art thou? Tag him and they won't come. Now whatcha gonna do Baltimore.

EPISODE 105: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: The Taliban Caucus lights the Republican Party and the House of Representatives on fire, while on his first day, the New Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries perfectly whips his members to do literally do nothing more than bring their popcorn and watch everybody from Gaetz to McCarthy burn, baby, burn. It was a beautiful thing, and it left the full range of fascists from Tucker Carlson to Rep. Byron Donalds having to cobble together the nonsensical sophistry that their self-defenestration was actually democracy in action. If Jeffries can manage to keep the Democrats from reverting to their natural desire to do ill-timed good on behalf of the institution rather than let the Republicans shoot themselves again today, he will have won the 118th Congress no matter which Liz Truss the GOP eventually settles on in place of the wounded McCarthy. B-Block (15:15) SPECIAL COMMENT No. 2: There is the tragedy of Damar Hamlin of the Buffalo Bills, and then there is the disgusting reality that the National Football League is now trying to gaslight us. OF COURSE the league intended to resume Monday night's game even after the stricken player fell. And now the NFL has lied about it and sleazily blamed Joe Buck, Suzy Kolber and all of ESPN, to cover up its own insensitivity and callousness. This is, of course, the history of the NFL, which did the wrong thing after JFK was assassinated, and after Mayor George Moscone and Councilman Harvey Milk were assassinated hours before a Monday Night Football game in San Francisco, and after it was told flights could not be guaranteed to get its players and media to games the weekend after 9/11. But this lie makes the Hamlin nightmare even worse - as does the rank exploitation of it by the anti-vaccine conspiracy theorists, who spit on the memories of Chuck Hughes and J.V. Cain and Hank Gathers and so many athletes who died on the field, from cardiac distress. (30:54) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Trump and Michael Flynn are no match for Congressman-Elect George Santos. C-Block (36:09) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: In 1973, Charles Crawford was interviewing me for his TV news story from one of the earliest baseball card shows. In 1983, he was sitting next to me on the anchor desk at CNN. He introduced himself and I said "we've met before." His reaction when I told him how and when is worth your time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
