say you can t play football until you re 12 or 14, show me what evidence. first of all, something magically happens around that age which makes it disturbing that you would say it s okay to start playing that age. everybody does it, i ve coached youth football, people from 8 to 38. you hit puberty, so you go from 105 to 165, and now it s okay to play at 165 brian: do more damage. when the force is even more severe? the most important aspect of that, the brain s not fully developed until age 25. there s a critical development in the amygdala are area of our brain, so that s when they re saying it s okay the play contact sports when collisions are more severe, they re bigger and stronger, and now it s okay to play? biggest problem with this whole subject, there s zero science to support any of that when they say that. brian: right. and you re a guy that played tackle football for a while
desert. rachel: it will warm up, brian. it will warm up. it s going on the beautiful in arizona. it will. i i know, when i landed it was about 70. just in the morning the sun doesn t realize this is a desert and it should be hot, so it s not good. that s why a lot of times illegal are immigrants will wait a little while before they sneak across the border, because it s a little bit too old except for the geniuses that go the new york and say i don t like america, let me go to canada, they all want to come back again. just kind of cool, sights and sounds. people are relieved the pandemic s over. this is the fourth super bowl arizona s had. they are into it. a little bit later you ll see the sights and sounds of the city, everything that you guys are missing. but i imagine the next super bowl in a couple of years that fox has, we ll be back down here with all the shows. pete: it is a great stadium, brian. thank you for staying with us all morning. we ll check back in. there it is, don
outflanked brian: and if kansas city s going to get going, it s going to be the other kelce, the tight end. yes. well, listen, i think that s part of kansas city s biggest advantages, if they can strike early, they can get a 10-point lead and they make the eagles play from behind a little bit. that s hard to do because going back to what they do offense offensively, they control the environment. they move the ball, they score point, so they control the entire environment. brian: right. kansas city s going to have to stop that running game somehow, some way to win this game. brian: it s the unbelievable, what the eagles have done. they had four wins a couple years ago, fired their coach, they had all this controversy, their franchise quarterback ends up being a bust, and now they re back with jalen hurts, and they look like they re going to be winning for a while. it s an amazing transformation. right. and it gets back to controlling tempo, controlling the environment. when your
