Jim Everett

Okay, with your quarterback, Drake Lindsey, hear me out on this because this hit me a couple of weeks ago, and we didn't chat last week, so I've been sitting on it.

Drake Lindsey reminds me, obviously, of a less experienced and more raw version of former L.A. Rams quarterback Jim Everett.

Do you see any of that in your quarterback?

Well, I don't know if I watched enough of Jim Everett to give you an example or an expertise on Jim Everett.

I know a lot of things about Jim Everett, so that's good.

I've seen things in YouTube clips and things like that.

But I do think that Drake is only going to continue to get better.

But the only focus has to be a constant improvement, getting better every single day, listening and being transparent to the things that maybe weren't as good from that prior week.

Yeah.

Randy says Jim Rome fighting Jim Everett was one of the best pieces of television history.

Yeah, he was on.

Chris Kermitsos is somehow involved with that.

Like he was in Chris's studio or something.

But Jim Rome kept calling Jim Everett the female tennis player, Chris Everett.

And then he did it to his face.

And Jim Everett said, call me Chris Everett one more time and we're going to have a problem.

And on the other side, uh, you had Jedd Fisch talking about the problems that Washington's roster has because they're not paying enough.

Purdue, just two weeks ago, three weeks ago, right after the Notre Dame game, you had a lot of Purdue fans, including, um, a super fan if you will, Jim Everett, uh, ex-Purdue quarterback, talking about the problems with NIL and, um, Purdue's current NIL situation.

Uh, here at Boiled Sports, we kind of pled with you guys to say, "Hey, there are two games Purdue, uh, if not should have won, could have won in both Wake Forest and UCLA, and that Pre- competed really well versus UCLA.

Competed very well.

He was a radio personality.

None of us knew who he was, like in DFW, until he was on ESPN2 and he had his talk show, right? And I always thought like, "God, this guy is just a grade A jerk." And then he had that moment with Chris Everett, the old quarterback of the Rams, where, where it was actually Jim Everett, but he called him Chris Evert, the female tennis player, and he kept doing it to his face.

And Jim Everett's like, "Call me Chris again." And he did.

Jim Everett stood up and knocked that little man off of his seat, and they had to be separated.

And he's ridden that wave to the bank.

I just-

Uh-

Yeah

Yeah.

Jim Everett.

59.

That was fun.

Good sibling rivalry.

Yeah.

Jim Everett, 59.

Former NFL player.

In that opening drive, I think that was the biggest thing, too.

Tyson Bajent pulling the Jim Everett phantom sack also was another.

You're like, oh, my God, this is not going to go well.

And there were times where it felt like the Bears were going to crawl back into this game.

No.

And the other thing that goes back is 30 years ago was probably the audio clip of Jim Everett and Jim Rome.

Yeah.

Jim Everett was the coach of the Saints, and remember he was getting a lot of flack for being soft and bad, and they-

Oh, Jim Mora was the coach of the Saints.

I'm sorry, the quarterback.

Yeah, the quarterback.

Jim Everett.

[laughs]

So it's, it's like, it'd be like, "Hey, call me boy again, I'm gonna have to go Jim Everett on you." [laughs]

It became like his catchphrase after-
