“Bet on You” – Building Confidence and Player Ownership with Bill Cleary (Part 1) In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, Matt Rogers sits down with Bill Cleary , Assistant Athletic Director and Head Women’s Basketball Coach at St. Thomas Aquinas College , for a powerful and honest discussion about coaching women and developing true confidence in today’s athletes. Bill shares what he’s learned over more than two decades of coaching about the growing challenge of self-worth, the impact of comparison and social media, and why many athletes struggle to recognize their own value. Together, Matt and Bill explore what it really means to build confidence that isn’t dependent on playing time, statistics, rankings, or outside validation.

Matt Rogers and O.J. Spivey from The Philadelphia Tribune/WDAS 105.3 preview the Week 2 Eagles vs. Chiefs “Super Bowl Rematch” and the rest of the Week 2 slate. They give their picks on: PHI @ KC, DEN @ IND, CHI @ DET, ATL @ MIN, TB @ HOU, LAC @ LV. 03:38 - “Often times — as we have seen throughout the Super Bowl era… We’ve seen teams reach the Super Bowl and say ‘Oh yeah. If they just get this or they just do this, that, a third, they can get back.’ And some never get back. And, as we’ve seen, a couple have gone back but they haven’t gotten it done.” — O.J. Spivey 04:20 - “It’s not even a guarantee that you’ll even make the playoffs the following season. Every year (and I get these stats directly from the NFL) since 1990 — this even predates the current format of realignment or the 2002 realignment — (free agency, salary cap, etc.): there will always be at least 4 new teams that have made the playoffs who missed the playoffs the previous year.” — O.J. Spivey 05:45 - “I always say when I talk about football: the Eli Manning example. All you need is a ticket to the dance and think things can just fall the way they need to and you end up with your team’s colored confetti.” — Matt Rogers 09:58 - “Landon Dickerson has been a full participant in practice this week, but he was a little banged up. So that’s going to be a little interesting to see. But, as we saw in the Super Bowl, Chris Jones: he was not a factor at all.” — O.J. Spivey 12:05 - “I think it appears as though he [Zadarius Smith] got in a full week of practice and he’s so eager and energetic when he spoke with the media this week. He looks in tremendous shape — by the way. I’d say maybe about up to 25% of the snaps perhaps.” — O.J. Spivey 14:20 - “Is it going to be no-step-drop, throw to whoever Adoree Jackson is guarding? Because last week he was BBQ chicken. They were just licking their fingers. They had BBQ dripping all in their stache’ and in their beards.” — Matt Rogers 16:20 - “You brought up Ringo. I didn’t want to bring up Ringo, but now that we’ve brought up Ringo, it’s pretty crystal-clear that Ringo’s not the guy. They went and got Jakorian Bennett. They’ve got Adoree out there getting roasted last week and Ringo’s still on the side sticking to just the Special Teams duty. I don’t think I saw Ringo with any snaps.” — Matt Rogers 21:05 - “What fans have to realize is that winning teams are not good for the sports-talk business. Sports radio thrives off of losing. Sports radio thrives off of having fans to vent that ‘oh yeah this team sucks’, or ‘fire the coach’, ‘fire this’, ‘get rid of this guy; get rid of that guy.’ When you have a winning team, such as the Eagles and you have an elite superstar, Super Bowl MVP QB in Jalen Hurts, you have nothing left to do but to conjure up from the sublime to the ridiculous.” — O.J. Spivey 23:10 - “A.J. is saying all of the right things — for the most part. But you see little inklings here and there. Of course he wants the ball; we all understand that. DeVonta Smith wants the ball. But you see media guys are trying to chip away; trying to get them to say something... A.J. has to be careful… We’re talking about Jalen Carter not taking the bait. A.J. can’t take the bait.” — O.J. Spivey 33:28 - “I do think — oddly — somehow, someway that Adoree Jackson is going to find his way hands to having the football in his hands. He’s going to get a lot of opportunities to make it happen, too.” — Matt Rogers 35:10 - “If y’all re-watch the run … I don’t mean to throw him under the bus. Adoree, if
