They are now the worst team 14 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: in the NBA. The team that was two thirds of 15 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: a game away from maybe winning it all last year 16 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 1: is currently the worst team in the NBA. On a 17 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: night where Bam out of Bio scores eighty three points 18 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: for the Miami Heat and Italy beats USA eight to 19 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: six at the World Baseball Classic, the Americans now on 20 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 1: the verge of elimination. And that's not even the weirdest 21 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: thing that happened yesterday. The weirdest thing that happened, James, 22 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: is the Ravens got medical reports back from their doctors 23 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: and all the doctors that examined Max Crosby, and they said, nah, 24 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: damaged goods. We're rescinding this trade with the Las Vegas Raiders. 25 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: You go back to Sin City, Max Crosby. That's a 26 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: weird day all in one night. That's a weird night. 27 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: Last night, I. 28 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 3: Would honestly argue eighty three points is more interesting than that. 29 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 3: Eighty three points is ridiculous. I will say that the 30 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 3: way they did it was perhaps unethicals, people say, but 31 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 3: I don't care. 32 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 4: Eighty three is eighty three. 33 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 3: I did think it was crazy that his teammates were 34 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 3: intentionally missing free throws near the end of the game 35 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 3: to get the more possessions and try to get the 36 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 3: ball back to Bam. 37 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 4: And they were up by a million anyway. 38 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 3: But I've always thought that if you are hot like that, 39 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 3: you should just stay in the game. I don't think 40 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 3: that you should come out of a game when you're 41 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 3: on a historic pace like that. So shout out to Bam, 42 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 3: previously had not even scored fifty in an NBA game, 43 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 3: goes for eighty three passes Kobe. He's number two behind 44 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 3: a Will and I know people were saying last night 45 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 3: a boy Wilt's record, man, it could go down. 46 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 4: He was still seventeen boys short of it. 47 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 3: So I don't want to act like, you know, we're 48 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 3: gonna see a hundred point game here anytime soon. But 49 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 3: shouts of the Wizards. They are tanking like nobody's business. 50 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 3: They are god awful regulated out of the NBA and 51 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 3: down to the G League because that is pathetic performance 52 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 3: from them, and letting one man score eighty plus points 53 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 3: on you is again grounds to be pushed out of 54 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 3: the league. 55 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 4: That's my hot take for this morning. But how are you? 56 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 5: And Kevin? 57 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 6: I'm good, Good morning. It is balmy. I did see 58 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 6: on the drive in that we were under a tornado 59 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 6: watch in central Indiana, so I guess, in all seriousness, 60 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 6: certainly safe travels to everybody out there. I know the 61 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 6: northwest part of our state got hit with some really 62 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 6: intense weather last night. 63 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 7: So yeah, it's eerie out there, to say the least. 64 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 6: And I guess it was eerie, you know, like, can 65 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 6: you imagine twenty four hours ago, I Jeff would start 66 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 6: out the show and say, hey, let's all do a 67 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 6: draft of NBA players tonight that will score eighty three 68 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 6: points in a game like round wol, we have chosen 69 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 6: Bam out of Bayo. I mean not that you know, 70 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 6: he's obviously a very good player. He's a Golden medalist. 71 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 6: But like we would have guessed what thirty other NBA 72 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 6: players that played last night, forty other NBA players that 73 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 6: played Hell, I would have guessed Russell Westbrook Pacers Kings 74 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 6: last night. I would have guessed Aaron E. Smith alone 75 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 6: soldier if you will, for the Pacers last night. But 76 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 6: yet it's Bam one up in his wife right or 77 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 6: fiance or girlfriend whatever she is. 78 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: Uh, yeah, we can talk about Wilson, that is, Yeah, 79 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: Asian Wilson, who might be the best female basketball player 80 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: on the planet, probably is take the mine out? Well, 81 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: I mean official callers got a nice take the mine out. 82 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: We'll see either way. I don't want to get derailed 83 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: on that thirty six of forty three free throws last night. 84 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: The man shot forty three free throws last nice. 85 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 6: It's kind of hard for me to debate like ethic 86 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 6: coldness when it comes to this. When I watched one 87 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 6: time the Colts and Bills and Snow, and the Colts 88 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 6: literally threw the ball to Reggie Wayne like seven times 89 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 6: in the first nine plays of the game to get him. 90 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 2: Wasn't that, like Andreah, they're trying to get him cash here. 91 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 4: Other than passing a guy, which I don't I don't. 92 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 6: To be clear, I would argue this is more genuine 93 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 6: than the old contract incentive or you know Jonathan Taylor, 94 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 6: you know heaping carries towards him in the last game 95 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 6: of a meetingless, I'm like the Wizards, Uh, but yeah, 96 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 6: shout out to Bam eighty three wild and Jeff, you 97 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 6: are right, crazy crazy.

It was just weird how it all happened. 102 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: But eighty three is eighty three. I don't care what 103 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 1: anybody says, James, eighty three points in an NBA game 104 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: is It's only been done by one other person who 105 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: went past it, and that was Will That's it. 106 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 3: Ben was good last night. They allowed Asa Wilson to 107 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 3: join him on the podium. And by the way, she's 108 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 3: the best player in the world. I mean, she her 109 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 3: career high at fifty three, which is the WNBA record, 110 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 3: tie for the WNBA record with Liz Cambaige, but eighty 111 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 3: three is unbelievable. Twenty three free throw attempts and honestly, 112 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,720 Speaker 3: I watched every foul back. Someone clipped it up on 113 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 3: social media, and it was not like he was out 114 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 3: there flailing and falling like we see with some of 115 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 3: these other stars and here in this city, SGA can 116 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 3: be annoying, but no, they were legitimately hacking him. 117 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 4: So again, the Wizards discuss me, they really do. 118 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: Damn. 119 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 4: I am very impressible what he did. 120 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 3: But when I heard that it happened against the Wizards 121 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 3: and he scored one to fifty as a team to 122 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 3: win that game, that let me know everything I needed 123 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 3: to know. 124 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 1: I a still think, Kevin, and you're married, you might 125 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: get this. That might have been a very important relationship thing. 126 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: Because forever she is the best player in the world. 127 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 1: I'll give you that, James, I'm not gonna argue that. 128 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: But he'll always be able to look at her and go, 129 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: you ever score eighty three, and again he's got that 130 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: one thing that he can hold over, right, that one 131 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: little tiny thing, just one thing. 132 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm gonna get I'm gonna go out on a 133 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 6: lemon and say you probably do want to do that 134 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 6: too too often if you jerge to really thrive not to. 135 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying you don't have to say it, 136 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: you just know it in you in your brain. Yeah, 137 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: I'm married to the most awesome person. I'm with the 138 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: most awesome person ever. But I'm okay too. That's all 139 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: I'm saying. 140 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 6: One up in your significant other probably not a game 141 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 6: you want to play too often. 142 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: You don't say it out, Wow, Kevin, it's internal. It's 143 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 1: an internal thing. 144 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 6: Daniel Jones gonna get done to day James, it does 145 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 6: appear that way. 146 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 4: I was getting up this morning and walking in here 147 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 4: and it. 148 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 3: According to NFL Network, the Coats are trying to hammer 149 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 3: out a two year deal for Daniel Jones with honestly 150 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 3: is the best case scenario in my opinion. 151 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 4: I mean two years, spread. 152 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 3: The cap, hit out, and get off the books when 153 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 3: you get your first round picks again in twenty twenty eight. 154 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 3: So that to me sounds like a realistic and solid plan. 155 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 3: And then on top of that, according to one of 156 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 3: the sites that we use and correct me, if I'm 157 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 3: saying it wrong people. 158 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 4: I'm sorry, spot Track, spoke track. 159 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: I don't have any idea, just else nobody. 160 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, basically the cap space website that we use, one 161 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 3: of them. They reported this morning that the Colts actually 162 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 3: restructured Bernard Ryman's contract to open up some more cap 163 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 3: space for the season and for seasons to come. So 164 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 3: his capit has been lowered to nine point two million 165 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six and that has opened up eight 166 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 3: point three million in cap space. 167 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 4: So they're doing some maneuvering. 168 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: They're getting that they have until this afternoon at four, 169 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: as you say, Kevin to be salary cap compliant, correct. 170 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, And again for Daniel Jones in his camp, there 171 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 6: is also a desire to want to get you know. Obviously, 172 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 6: for the Colts they need to remove the thirty seven 173 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 6: million dollar cap pit by four o'clock or lessen it's 174 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 6: probably the better way to put it. But for Daniel 175 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 6: Jones's camp, they obviously want more guarantees that are north 176 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 6: of thirty seven million, you know, for their player, particularly 177 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 6: their player that has had an off injured career. So 178 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 6: there is a little bit of desire I think for 179 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 6: both parties to try to cooperate as best as possible, 180 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 6: and now we'll see what the domino effect is off 181 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 6: of that. What does that mean for Trey Hendrickson. You know, 182 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 6: it's a really quiet day from a free agency standpoint 183 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 6: for the Colts, and now the Max Crosby thing throws 184 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 6: this other domino into it all. I mean, you know, 185 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 6: is he just strictly going back to the Raiders. Are 186 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 6: the Raiders honoring everything they've done so far including quitty pay? 187 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 6: You know, are the Ravens back in the edge rushing market. 188 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 6: There's a lot of domino effect off of that news item, Like, it's. 189 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 7: Kind of wild. I thought back yesterday too. 190 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 6: I remember Ryan Grant, Colts wide out from probably seven 191 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 6: years ago, failed his physical in Baltimore and the very 192 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 6: next week signed with the Colts. Now, you know, again, 193 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 6: Ryan Grant is not a household name. I think if 194 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 6: you went up to a Colts fan on the side 195 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 6: of the street and said, hey, what's your favorite Ryan 196 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 6: Grant memory? They would offer who. Like, it's wild that 197 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 6: we sit here today and the arguably, maybe not even arguably, 198 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 6: the biggest move we have so far this week is 199 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 6: the guy that failed as physical or at least you know, 200 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 6: the Ravens aren't whatever happy with this physical state. However 201 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 6: you want to look at it. That's because the domino 202 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 6: effect that could you know, happen off of that might 203 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 6: be immense. So you know, that's the other wrinkle that's 204 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 6: kind of thrown into all of this is exactly what 205 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 6: is the trickle down effect off of Max Crosby now, 206 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 6: you know, back with the Raiders and not with the Ravens. 207 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. I remember a few years ago Kevin Ambry Thomas, 208 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: the cornerback for forty nine ers. At the time, he 209 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 3: had been waived and I believe the Colts claimed him 210 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 3: off waivers and intended to make him part of their team. 211 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 3: He didn't pass the physical or at least their physical 212 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 3: when it came to like a forearm injury. So this 213 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 3: does happen, but typically it does not happen with a 214 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 3: player of this caliber, so it doesn't grab your attention 215 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 3: to the headlines like this is. 216 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: Well, we got a lot to talk about today, obviously 217 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: very cults themed. Because the offseason continues. They have to 218 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: be under the salary cap by four o'clock this afternoon. 219 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,599 Speaker 1: Will give you the latest as we know it on 220 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: the Daniel Jones situation, more on the rescinded trade between 221 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: the Ravens and the Raiders. All kinds of stuff going 222 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: on this morning, including the Pacers who, like I said, 223 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: it's hard to believe. And I know how he got 224 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: I know how he got there. I know what's going on. 225 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: I get all of it. But I want to say 226 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: it again, James. They went from being probably what thirty 227 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: five minutes away from a potential NBA championship to now 228 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: being the worst team in the NBA nine months later. 229 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 4: I hope the basketball guys reward you with number one pick. 230 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 1: Oh, we have a presentation taking place. Mark Dyton has 231 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: presented Kevin Bowen with not one, but two boxes of 232 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: thin mint cookies. 233 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 6: There you go, listener, Aaron, thank you so much. I'll 234 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 6: be having two right now. 235 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 3: Oh. 236 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 6: I appreciate that, James. Would you like one? 237 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: Aaron not? 238 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 4: I would you know much rather have a sharp stick 239 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 4: in the eye. 240 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 6: Mark.

I don't know. 275 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 6: Well, out of the guy's much a thought. You know, 276 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 6: neither of those teams are going to be an at 277 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 6: large team. I watch the end of that game. That 278 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 6: was a wild finished shout out to Kellen Pickett, fort 279 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 6: Wayne Blackhawk Christian. We mentioned this when we were there 280 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 6: on Monday. Right State has got to Indiana All Stars 281 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 6: as freshmen that have been great players for them, and 282 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 6: Michael Cooper and Kellen Pickett. That was an unbelievable block 283 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 6: by him to really ice the game. It looked like 284 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 6: it was going to go in overtime. Detroit Kidd was 285 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 6: driving down the lane. Great great play by Kellen Pickett there, 286 00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 6: so Wright State into the dance and they are I 287 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 6: don't say maybe, lad, but two of their better players 288 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 6: again are freshmen Indiana All Stars, which is pretty wild 289 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 6: to see. There so a great game last night over 290 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 6: their court to have a coliseum. As the Raiders are 291 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 6: punching their ticket to the dance. 292 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: HI several other teams punching their ticket to the dance 293 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: last night too, including tournament main stay Gonzaga. They win 294 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 1: the West Coast Conference tournament and they are on their 295 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: way again to the NCAA Tournament. I don't know if 296 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 1: people think that this might be the year, but they 297 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: certainly own that conference. There's no question about that, James Boyd. 298 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 4: This ain't the e Sorry, enjoy that though. 299 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the National Football League the 300 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. Fairly quiet day two, pretty quiet, day two 301 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: of legal tampering, they're calling it right now. What can 302 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: you tell us, James Boyd about the Colts and where 303 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: they're at with Daniel Jones. 304 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 3: Well, this is just in from all of the top 305 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 3: insiders in the NFL. It sounds like the Colts are 306 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 3: working toward a two year deal with Daniel Jones, which 307 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 3: would be very significant, I think. And how you structure 308 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 3: that deal and how you maintain your flexibility when you 309 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 3: get your first round picks back in twenty twenty eight 310 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 3: and then On top of that, we had some of 311 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 3: our top cap space sites update their contracts with the 312 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 3: fact that Bernard Ryman, the Colt starting left tackle, has 313 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 3: restructured his deal to create about eight point three million 314 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 3: dollars in cap space for the Colts. So they have 315 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 3: to get cap compliant, which in English means they have 316 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 3: to get under the salary cap by four pm Eastern time. 317 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 3: So we probably will see a couple more moves like 318 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 3: that as they work toward again extending Daniel Jones and 319 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 3: then getting under the salary cap. 320 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: That's probably the biggest thing, getting under the salary cap. 321 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: And again, just looking at the spot track, you said 322 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: this morning, James, looks like they've restructured Bernard Raymond's contract. 323 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, just said that. 324 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: Yep. All right. We'll also check in on the rest 325 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: of the National Football League because it got strange yesterday Kevin. 326 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: The Ravens were sending their trade with the Raiders. Max 327 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: Crosby had been traded for two first round picks. Apparently 328 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: failed as physically he'd had knee surgery to repair or 329 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: meniscus in January. I'm guessing the Ravens knew about that surgery, 330 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 1: as we all did when they made that trade. Does 331 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: it look like to you a case of cold feet? 332 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: Or they looked at this guy's knees and go, I 333 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: don't know if he's gonna hold up for the next 334 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: several years. 335 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I would assume medically there is some 336 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 6: sort of you know whatever red flag here. But again 337 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 6: this is the gray area with it. Brought it up 338 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 6: in the opening segment. You know, a handful of years ago, 339 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 6: the Ravens failed Ryan Grant's physical a veteran whiteout. A 340 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 6: week later, the Colts signed him to a notable contract. 341 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 6: So you know, we have this if you want to 342 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 6: go years back. You know, Bob Sanders was one of 343 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 6: the more interesting case studies as a draft prospect. A 344 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 6: lot of teams red flagged him coming out of Iowa. 345 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 6: The Colts did not. Yes, Bob Sanders don't have a 346 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 6: long career, but I'd argue the Colts some benefits of that. 347 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 6: So wild and now the domino effect plays off of it. 348 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 6: And again we've kind of mentioned throughout the week. You know, 349 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 6: four o'clock today, that's when everything becomes officials. Our Franklin trade, 350 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 6: Michael Pittman junior trade, all these contracts become a fit 351 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 6: MI as of now, it's just all agreed to terms. 352 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 6: So you know, what does this mean? Do the Raiders 353 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 6: keep him? Do the Ravens now enter the Trey Hendrickson 354 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 6: sweepstakes if they need. 355 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 7: A pass rusher? You know what about the Cowboys? 356 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 6: They were rumored for Max Crosby and they made a 357 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 6: trade for for Shaun Gary. So boy, just a ton 358 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 6: of you know, Domino effect off it Quitty pay. You know, 359 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 6: he had signed a notable contract with the Raiders. So 360 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 6: wild news last night. 361 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: Crazy other free agent notables yesterday, cornerback Tarik Wooland goes 362 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: to the Philadelphia Eagles one year, fifteen million dollars. Romeo Dubbs, 363 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: the wide receiver, left the Green Bay Packers in free agency. 364 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,239 Speaker 1: He is now a member of the New England Patriots. 365 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: And we also saw a running back movie yesterday. Former 366 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: Kansas City chief running back Isaiah Pacheco is on his 367 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: way to the Lions, presumably to replace David Montgomery, who 368 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: has left that team in free agency. So that's what 369 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: we know today. 370 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, David Montgomery, I believe, is now with the Texans 371 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 3: along with Brad Smith, the former Colts starting right tackle. 372 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 3: So he'll be tasked with protecting C. J. Stroud, who 373 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 3: I believe is five and one against the Colts in 374 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 3: his career. 375 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: I'd keep it tuned to ninety three five and one 376 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 1: oh seven five the fan all day long for the 377 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: very latest in the Colts news and free agency in general. 378 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: Here in the National Football League in the NBA. Do 379 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: you want to start, Kevin with the Pacers losing ten 380 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: in a row? Do you want to start with a 381 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: notable NBA scoring game last night? 382 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 6: You? You are a leader, You lead us. 383 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: All right, We're going to start with craziness. Bam auta bio. 384 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 1: The Miami Heat dropped eighty three last night on the Wizards, 385 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: your favorite basketball team. James Boyd one fifty to one 386 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: twenty nine was the final scorer there. He was twenty 387 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: of forty three from the field, seven of twenty two 388 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 1: of three point range, thirty six of forty three. Washington 389 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,959 Speaker 1: fouled him enough to send him to the line forty 390 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: three times last night. 391 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I did watch the clips. They were legitimately 392 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 3: hacking him. I mean, out of all those fouls I saw, 393 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 3: it might have been three or four that were like 394 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 3: ah whatever, but they were legitle me beating the man up. 395 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 3: So just a crazy performance. And I also think that 396 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 3: the only part that that kind of bothers me a 397 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 3: little bit and I know will be forgotten in history, 398 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 3: is that his teammates intentionally mis free throws to get 399 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 3: more possessions. 400 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 4: For the heat. 401 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 3: Those are teammates, and at that point, I'm just like, 402 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 3: what are we doing? And that's that's again, that's not 403 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,120 Speaker 3: a fault of him or his teammates. It's the Wizards. 404 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 3: You all think, you all think so bad that teams 405 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 3: can intentionally missshots to help stat path for their other 406 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 3: teammate and still crush you by twenty points. 407 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 4: Get them out of the NBA. I'm sick of that. 408 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: Prior to to a last night's game, out of Biyo's 409 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: career high, anybody want to take a shot at that. 410 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 4: Well, I will looked it up, so I'll pass Kevin 411 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 4: forty eight. 412 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 1: Forty one doubled his previous career high. Wild. 413 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, yeah, forty three in the first half, 414 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 3: forty points in the second half. 415 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, thirty in the first quarter. 416 00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know what's crazy? 417 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 3: Actually did the highest points I've seen it in person 418 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 3: was when Devin Booker came here and scored sixty two 419 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 3: and that's the building. 420 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 7: Record for game. 421 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 3: And he had twenty nine in the first quarter, remember that. 422 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 3: But again that's sixty two, not eighty three. So boy, 423 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 3: just a histor performance and hats off to Bam. But 424 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 3: also get the Wizards out of the NBA and Adam 425 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 3: Silver tank find them for tanking. 426 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 4: That's pathetic. 427 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: Pacers lost their tenth game in a row late last 428 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: night in Sacramento despite having a twenty point lead at 429 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 1: one time. Sacramento wins at one fourteen to one oh nine. 430 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Nei Smith did lead the way, as you called him, 431 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: the lone Soldier Kevin with twenty nine points for the 432 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 1: Pacers last night at fifteen and fifty. Indiana is the 433 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: worst team in the NBA right now. They're a half 434 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: game worse than the aforementioned Sacramento Kings. 435 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, Ricarlo mentioned pregame Pascal Siakams sprained his knee in Portland. 436 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 6: I think when we've reached this point of the season 437 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,919 Speaker 6: and notable players like that suffer any injury, we now wonder, 438 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 6: you know when or how much they'll play the rest 439 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 6: of the year. Obviously, we're still awaiting to Viatz Zubat. 440 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 6: I did want to mention Rick Carlile Huts melopoent words 441 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 6: pre game for Jeremiah Johnson the passing of his father. 442 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 6: If you watched the broadcast last night Fox Sports Indiana 443 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 6: or I should say FanDuel Network gave a tribute to 444 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 6: Walter and JJ and I've had some conversations over the years, 445 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 6: and you know, he's super close with his family, and 446 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 6: he mentioned a Rick shared that Walter is a guy 447 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 6: that watches every pre game, every pacer game, every post game. 448 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 6: And I know JJ he actually stayed back from the 449 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 6: first from the flight out to the West coast trip 450 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 6: to watch his son compete in the sectional for Zionsville. 451 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 6: So you know pretty clear to me what you know 452 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 6: family means to your Jeremiah Johnson. Clearly his dad was 453 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 6: a huge, huge part of his life. There, So thoughts 454 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 6: to Jeremiah Johnson and his family, Well. 455 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 1: I'll be praying for him.

I believe this 468 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 3: upcoming Saturday against Mount Vernon, so that should be a 469 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,360 Speaker 3: good When the last time I saw those two teams play, Keitdlon. 470 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 4: Clark was an attendance. It On's overtime and Pike survived. 471 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 1: Yeah. Also Landon Lampley from Pike as a sophomore, he 472 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: was second team. Yeah, it'll be loaded. 473 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 3: New Lampley family is known pretty well around these parts 474 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 3: for basketball. 475 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: And Jeff Tue was the Marion County Coach of the year. 476 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: Who's that, Jeff Teague? 477 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 4: No idea who that is? 478 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: All right? Meanwhile, the World Baseball Classic continues, But how 479 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: much longer will it continue? With the United States? Last 480 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: night they lose to Italy eight to six. They trailed 481 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: eight nothing at one point in time, they could be 482 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 1: eliminated unless it'llly defeats Mexico later today. There is a 483 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: slight chance that if Mexico wins, they've got to score 484 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: four runs or less for Team USA to advance. Manager 485 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,479 Speaker 1: Mark de Rosa of the Americans had stated earlier on 486 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: MLB Network that he thought that Team USA had already 487 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: clinched a berth out of pool play, so he rested 488 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: some starters and gave guys a chance to play last night. 489 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 6: What a disaster. Now, I looked at the lineup. Do 490 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,680 Speaker 6: we really rest a lot of guys? It seemed like 491 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 6: we had a lot of the notable guys in the 492 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 6: actual lineup. I mean, not that I'm locked into who's 493 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 6: playing every game, but hey, Michael Lorenzen, former RTT was 494 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 6: pitching great for the Italians last night, and yeah, saw 495 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 6: Aaron Judge struck out with tying run on base there 496 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 6: in the ninth. 497 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 1: So that's what's happening in the world of sports. Anything 498 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: else you guys want to throw in right now. 499 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 6: Well, we got to mit you. Indiana. They try to 500 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 6: keep their season alive tonight up there in Chicago. Butler 501 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 6: also trying to keep their season alive out in the 502 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 6: Big East tournament. So Northwestern one. So yes, Chris Collins, 503 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 6: who has owned the Indian Hoosiers six straight wins for 504 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 6: Northwestern in this matchup here. Honestly, it was a pretty 505 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 6: good bubble day for Indiana so far. It continues to 506 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 6: you know, look pretty good for them in terms of 507 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 6: not a lot of bid stealing, and other bubble teams 508 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 6: are losing early in their respective conference tournaments. So Indiana's 509 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 6: gonna need at least two, you would think, and that 510 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 6: would be Northwestern tonight, and that would be Purdue tomorrow. 511 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 7: So that is the task six point thirty up. 512 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 6: There inside of the United Center, where Indiana had one 513 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 6: of the best performances of the season earlier this year 514 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 6: against Marquette. 515 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 1: And to recap yesterday, Joe Lenardi had updated his bracket. 516 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 1: We'll look for him to update it a little bit 517 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 1: later on today. But the last four in Indiana was 518 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: the last team in when last we checked. So they 519 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 1: are sitting right there on truly on the bubble. All right, 520 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: that's what's happening in the world of sports. Coming up 521 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 1: in a moment more NFL talks, specifically the Colts as 522 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 1: we continue ninety three five and one oh seven five. 523 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: It is March Madness, and a couple of our team's 524 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: going to be in action a little bit later on today. 525 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: For first of all, we're the home of Butler Basketball, 526 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 1: and when the games can't be heard here on ninety 527 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 1: three five and one oh seven five the fan, they 528 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 1: go to ninety two point seven FM Fuego and four 529 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 1: o'clock this afternoon. They will be playing today as Butler 530 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: takes on Providence. They've had a little bit of success 531 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: against Providence this year, so we'll see what happens there. 532 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 6: Well, two wild games, both those games double overtime, absolutely 533 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 6: insane games. So yeah, Butler wins. It'll be Saint John's 534 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 6: coming up tomorrow as the one seed there. 535 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,760 Speaker 1: Indiana, as you mentioned a moment ago, they'll be playing 536 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 1: Northwestern today six thirty pm. You can watch the game 537 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: on Big ten Network or you can listen to it 538 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: on ninety three point one WIBC. So it's just that 539 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: time of year, all kinds of basketball taking place all 540 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 1: over the country. But so too is the National Football League. 541 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: Never takes a day off, James, Never a day off 542 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: for the NFL, Nope. 543 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 3: And a lot of it is waiting see mode right 544 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 3: now for the Colts, and you're hoping that you reach 545 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 3: resolution rather quickly with Daniel Jones because you want to 546 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 3: be capital compliant four PM, but you also want to 547 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 3: be able to basically sign other guys and get everything 548 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 3: rolling with your other pursuits. So let's say you do 549 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 3: lock down Daniel Jones on a two year deal, as 550 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 3: NFL Network says the Colts are trying to finalize, then 551 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 3: that would allow you to then turn your attention to 552 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 3: your pass rush, to your linebackers, to other deficiencies in 553 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 3: your roster, and other players in your roster as well, 554 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 3: because as we know Bernard and I'm sorring to Bernard 555 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 3: Ryman who instructured his deal, Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce 556 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 3: are not the only free agents the Colts have as 557 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 3: far as in house free agents. So we'll see how 558 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 3: it all kind of trickles down. 559 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, And the big ticket items right now, they got 560 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 1: to figure out what they're gonna do with Anthony Richardson. 561 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: He's currently slotted to have the ninth highest cap hit 562 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: on this team this coming year. When they figure out 563 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: what they're going to do with him, that'll probably save 564 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: them a little over ten million dollars, almost eleven million dollars, Kevin, 565 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,199 Speaker 1: So what do you think does anybody ask, does anybody 566 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 1: offer up draft picks for Anthony Richardson or they just 567 00:25:58,960 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 1: kind of wait for him. 568 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 6: To go out of James correctly wrong. I believe they 569 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 6: traded Richardson. You just kind of cut that in half, right, Yeah, 570 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 6: it wouldn't be a full removal of the ten or 571 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 6: eleven million there, just to clarify, you know, right now, 572 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 6: my focus today is certainly the Daniel Jones situation. 573 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 7: You know, what does that cap hit look like by 574 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 7: four o'clock? 575 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 6: And then, as James pointed out, pass rush and the 576 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 6: name of Trey Hendrickson and the news item of last 577 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 6: night of Max Crosby and the rescending from Baltimore side 578 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 6: of it, does that do anything to Hendrickson's market? Honestly, 579 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 6: you could look at a twofold one. Maybe it opens 580 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 6: up other teams, maybe it opens up Baltimore to have 581 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 6: some interest, But then does it put any pause into 582 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 6: other teams that are like, oh boy, I'm a little 583 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 6: nervous about aging pass rushers that are just coming off surgeries, 584 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 6: you know, is that a game that anybody plays here considering, 585 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 6: you know, a hip surgery for Hendrickson because I think 586 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 6: an ideal world the Colts would have done all three 587 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 6: or will have done all three. Pierce Jones it potentially 588 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 6: Hendrickson And if you look at it, it was a 589 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 6: pretty quiet day, I would say, league wide until the 590 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 6: Crosby news. But that pass rush market doesn't have a 591 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 6: lot of juice left in it now, you know. Again 592 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 6: we can get into a debate of how much juice 593 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 6: Trey Hendrickson has left. But those are the two big 594 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 6: things I'll be watching for today is if the clearing 595 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 6: up of cap space is that directly for the top 596 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 6: pass rusher left on the market. 597 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 1: Any thoughts on Zaire Franklin saying he wasn't surprised that 598 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 1: he got traded by the Colts, said try to get 599 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 1: rid of him earlier. But before yeah, do we have. 600 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 4: That audio cued up? 601 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 1: Mark? 602 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 3: Let me know what we do, because in my opinion, 603 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 3: I think it's better to just hear from the source 604 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 3: on this. And as we all know, Zaire is never 605 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 3: one to be bashful about how he feels in certain situations. 606 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 3: So here is Zaire Franklin and the Jim Rome show, 607 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 3: I believe earlier this week discussing going to Green Bay 608 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,400 Speaker 3: but also kind of leaving the Colts. 609 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 9: I mean, I consider myself one of the faster guys 610 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 9: on the defense, so I didn't think he was talking 611 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 9: about me. I can't get younger. 612 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: I can't do that. 613 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 9: But you know when I heard it, I mean, you know, 614 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 9: you take it for what it is. You know, obviously, 615 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 9: with a disappointing year, changes was going to be made. 616 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 9: You know. Unfortunately they've looked at, you know, us as 617 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 9: we were the changes that had to be made. So 618 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 9: it's a part of it. Like I said, I don't 619 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 9: take it personal. It's just business. I know the type 620 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 9: of player that I am, and you know what I'll 621 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 9: bring to an organization and what I bring to a 622 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 9: locker room. So I was confident in that and knew 623 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 9: that even if my days at Indianapolis would end, that 624 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 9: there would be ample opportunity elsewhere. 625 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 4: You know, It's really interesting because I always talk to myself. 626 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: Guys. 627 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 4: You know, I've done this a long time. 628 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: You and I have taught for a long time. Business 629 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: is business, and the NFL is like most ruthless business. 630 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 4: We know that, and people always say. 631 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 6: Well, I don't take it personally. 632 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 4: How can you not? 633 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 6: Man? 634 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: Is it not personal? 635 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 4: Is everything not personal? 636 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 6: Yeah? 637 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 9: I mean you know what it is, though, Jim. You 638 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 9: know me, the way I came in this lead as 639 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 9: a seventh rounder, I had to earn my way on 640 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 9: this roster in my mind every single year, you know, 641 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 9: So it was not new to this. Honestly, the first 642 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 9: time the coach tried to get me out of the building, 643 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 9: to be honest with you. So, uh, you know, I'm 644 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 9: used to earning my key. You know, I'm looking forward 645 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 9: to going into a new organization, a new locker room, 646 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 9: and you know, earning my space, earning their respect, and 647 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 9: you know, showing them why I am one of the 648 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 9: best linebackers in this league. So I'm looking forward to 649 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 9: the new. 650 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 1: So there you go. Zire Franklin with Jim Rome yesterday 651 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: talking about his trade from the Indianapolis Colts, and you know, 652 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: he started by making reference to that that quote from 653 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: Chris Ballard about we got to get faster, we got 654 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: to get younger. So I can't get younger, but I 655 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 1: was definitely one of the fastest guys. 656 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 3: I would disagree there, But I mean they have the 657 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 3: thing about a lot of advancing technology, Cavin is they 658 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 3: have stats and stuff to track this. So so if 659 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 3: we go back and just watch at least him in coverage, 660 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 3: he was not one of the fastest guys, which is 661 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 3: why they probably want to move on. 662 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 4: Range was not a part of his game. 663 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: Now. 664 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 3: I don't want to dismiss the other stuff that Zire 665 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 3: Franklin did well, you know, as far as raising, rising 666 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 3: through the ranks and becoming an every down linebacker in 667 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 3: this league from a seventh round pick and then becoming 668 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 3: a second team All Pro. But yeah, I think when 669 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 3: the faster part definitely applies to him quite frankly. And 670 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 3: then on top of that the little not dig but 671 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 3: the mention of they tried to get me out of 672 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 3: there before. 673 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 4: I don't know how that makes you look any better. 674 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 3: But one thing I'll give him credit for is Zayiro 675 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 3: will be himself to the end, and I guess you 676 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 3: got to respect the guy who doesn't change. 677 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I think we're in the moat of the 678 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 6: Zire Franklin right now, a la Chris Ballard, as we 679 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 6: hate everything that comes out of that man's mouth. I 680 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 6: think that's how ninety nine percent of fans react. I 681 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 6: listened to the whole thing. I had zero ish with 682 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 6: what Zaia said yesterday. I thought his final answer was 683 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 6: really enlightening about this is part of the NFL. When 684 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:02,959 Speaker 6: you don't win, chance happens, right, and that is in 685 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 6: the simplest way, that is exactly what is taking place 686 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 6: with the Colts. And Zia was very honest, I thought 687 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 6: in saying I understand that I am a part of that. 688 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 6: And you know, if you look at it right now, 689 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 6: it's easily the most change we've seen under Ballard. You know, 690 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 6: whether you want to look at Michael Pittman Junior, or 691 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 6: Ziara Franklin or even Braydon Smith and Quitty pay. You know, 692 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 6: if you look at those four individuals, those are four 693 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 6: of the top probably what ten people that have started 694 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 6: games in the Chris Ballard era, and they're all gone. 695 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 7: And you know, I agree with it. 696 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 6: I did think change was necessary, but this is not 697 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 6: how Ballad is really ever operated. Major vets are gone 698 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 6: from this football team, and you know, some of it 699 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 6: is certainly salary cap related, but also some of it 700 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 6: is when you're in a five year playoff drought, one 701 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 6: of the longest in the NFL, you're going to half 702 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 6: the part ways with you know, Pillar Colts is probably 703 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 6: too big of a compliment, but just like mainstays, you know, 704 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 6: guys that have been consistent starters throughout this time, and 705 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 6: those four individuals have been that. So yeah, I I'm 706 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 6: not overly surprised by really any of it. You know. 707 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 6: In terms of Braydon Smith, I actually think Houston is 708 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 6: a pretty good situation for him. Houston seems to need 709 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 6: offensive line help annually, yet they still make the playoffs 710 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 6: with that, So, you know, Braiden Smith, you know, obviously 711 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 6: there's some questions about playing seventeen games, but that makes 712 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 6: sense to me. I couldn't believe. And I saw the 713 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 6: Texans also have four draft picks in the top. 714 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 7: Seventy next year, you know, which is crazy. 715 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 6: Is just wild to think that they have made the 716 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 6: playoffs in three straight years and they have four picks 717 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 6: in the top The Colts have won in the top seventy, Like, 718 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 6: that's not ideal at all for the Colts when you 719 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 6: look at you know, their lack of winning versus Houston's 720 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 6: pretty consistent winning over the last three years. There, So, yeah, 721 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 6: I did the Xire's comment. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I 722 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 6: agree with James on the fact part there, but his 723 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 6: overall tenor in terms of the Colts wanting to move 724 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 6: on from him, I thought it was actually pretty honest 725 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 6: and pretty accurate. 726 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I had no problem with Zire Franklin and earlier, 727 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: essentially what Jim rob had said when he was setting 728 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: up the question too. The NFL is cutthroat. They don't 729 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: care what you did last year. They don't care what 730 00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: you did, certainly two years ago. If you're making too 731 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: much money and they don't think they're going to get 732 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: the kind of production out of you that they need 733 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 1: at that price, they're just gonna move on. They're gonna 734 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: make a trade. They're going to release you out right. 735 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: Very rarely, unless it's maybe a player that's been there 736 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: a long time and they might give him one more year, 737 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: and that doesn't even happen very often anymore. NFL is 738 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: just going to move on, Kevin. This is what they do. 739 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 6: I wouldn't describe the Sire Franklin thing as cutthroat. He 740 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 6: didn't play very great football last year, so I think 741 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 6: there was reasons for it, And when you add it 742 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 6: all up. 743 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 4: I agree with that. 744 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: I'm NFL doesn't care. 745 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 6: It's up par level of play last season, the fact 746 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,959 Speaker 6: that it's a new defensive system. Zira was very honest 747 00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 6: in that he didn't think he was a fit for 748 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 6: the leu an Room system. He made that very clear 749 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 6: about the interview. For those that haven't followed the Green 750 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 6: Bay story, Jonathan Gannon is their new defensive coordinator. Jonathan Gannon, 751 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 6: former Cardinals head coach, used to be here in Indie 752 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 6: with Zaire, So there is a connection there of getting 753 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 6: back to a little bit of the older system there. 754 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 6: So yeah, to me, it added up. It was the 755 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 6: reason why I asked Chris Bauert two weeks ago, you know, 756 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 6: do you expect Sara Franklin to be here? Because I 757 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 6: think there was plenty of evidence to see this not continuing. 758 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 1: So that's that Zire. Franklin has moved on. Obviously, that 759 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: happened a couple of days ago. But he made that 760 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: appearance yesterday on the Jim Rohan Show, on a nationally 761 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 1: televised radio show. And now we wait to see what 762 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: the Colts end up doing with Daniel Jones and if 763 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 1: you're just joining us this morning, James, by all accounts, 764 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: sounds like the Colts and Jones and his camp are 765 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 1: moving closer and closer to resolution here. 766 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, we saw someone jump the gun a little bit 767 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 3: yesterday and I was immediately told this ain't true. 768 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 4: So they're still working toward a long term deal. 769 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 3: And by long term it sounds like Cordon's NFL network 770 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 3: that will be a two year d which I think 771 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,399 Speaker 3: is the best case scenario probably for everyone involved when 772 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 3: it comes to Daniel Jones, Like, you don't want to 773 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 3: attach another year onto that contract in my opinion, because 774 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 3: by twenty twenty eight, if things have gone terribly, which 775 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 3: they could, I mean, you're banking on a guy coming 776 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 3: off an Achilles stare being your QB one and leading 777 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 3: you to the promised Land. If that does not work 778 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,439 Speaker 3: over the next two years, you do get your first 779 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 3: round picks back in twenty twenty eight. So does that 780 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 3: help you perhaps hit a hard reset for the franchise 781 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 3: if you need to. 782 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 4: So we'll see what it all shakes out to. 783 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 3: But as I put out on social media yesterday, we 784 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,960 Speaker 3: get the initial numbers on the Daniel Jones contract and 785 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 3: they might even sound crazy, like if it's two years 786 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 3: and ninety million, people are going to be like, why 787 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:46,959 Speaker 3: the heck are we paying this guy forty five million 788 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,720 Speaker 3: dollars a year. The devil is in the details, people. 789 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,600 Speaker 3: We'll just remember that for our purposes, guaranteed money and 790 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 3: cap hits are all that matter, and that's the real contract. 791 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 3: I had to learn that myself, as NFL or port 792 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 3: that when we see like the big numbers and we 793 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 3: divide it by whatever amount of years it is and 794 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 3: we do the average, that is never the case when 795 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,719 Speaker 3: it comes to NFL contracts all about guarantees. 796 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 6: And it's gonna be jarring to just reiterate that point. 797 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 6: It'll be jarring for a lot of fans to see 798 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 6: what Jones is going to get. Someone sent me yesterday. 799 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 6: Currently Jones at thirty seven million plus Alec Pierce, they're worth, Like, 800 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 6: I forget the exact numbers. I want to say it's 801 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 6: like twenty two million more than Matthew Stafford and pookin Nakua. 802 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 6: Which you know, you'd be an absolute idiot to say 803 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:35,840 Speaker 6: that the duo of Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce is 804 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,920 Speaker 6: better than Matthew Stafford and pokuin Aakua. And it all 805 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,280 Speaker 6: blows down to this. You have to hit on rookie 806 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 6: contract players period. That's how the finances work in the NFL. 807 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 6: You have such an advantageous situation if you are able 808 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 6: to hit on those young players. And we've gone over 809 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 6: the past couple of days, you know, yesterday with the 810 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 6: Quidy pay news, we went over that twenty twenty one draft. 811 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 6: That draft was twenty three draft. It was extra awful 812 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 6: considering you were drafting in the top five of each 813 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 6: of those rounds. That is why you are in the 814 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 6: playoff drought that you are, that is why you are 815 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,359 Speaker 6: in the cap situations that you are. It's just an 816 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:18,879 Speaker 6: absolute must that you try and hit on some of 817 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 6: your rookie contracts over you know, four year period. You know, 818 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 6: for those first round picks, there's a fifth year team 819 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,839 Speaker 6: option on it. And I think that is a huge, 820 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 6: huge issue here in this I guess whatever latter stages 821 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 6: of the Chris Ballard era, you haven't done enough of that. 822 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 6: And now that's why you're about to be paying a 823 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 6: quarterback in particular. That is going to be really really 824 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 6: jarring for a lot of people, and understandable. I totally 825 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 6: get why fans are skeptical, and I just think it's 826 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 6: an awkward time for the Colts in their quarterback situation. 827 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 6: You know, I still hear from people that would rather 828 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 6: do the Kyler Murray thing much cheaper. 829 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 1: It's just a. 830 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 6: Very I don't think there's an outright easy answer to 831 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 6: it all. I mean, an ideal world, you would have 832 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:02,919 Speaker 6: hit on the rookie contract quarterback and you be able 833 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 6: to do some things that Houston has been able to 834 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:06,800 Speaker 6: do over the last three or four years. 835 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 7: But that's just not reality for you. 836 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,959 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones will be twenty nine years old in May, 837 00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 1: and I think the Colts, if they're honest, look, you 838 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: sign this two year deal and then you get your 839 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: picks back. You can do a hard reset. That's all good, 840 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: But don't you think the Colts are saying, also play 841 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 1: so well, James. I want Daniel Jones to play so 842 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: well that we have to give him another three or 843 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 1: four year contract when this thing is up. That would 844 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 1: be an ideal world because that means he's playing really 845 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,439 Speaker 1: good football if that happens. But if it doesn't, it's 846 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: two years and then you hit the hard reset. You 847 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: have your picks back, and I'm guessing at that point 848 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: in time, if you have to hit a hard reset. 849 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 1: You probably have somebody else making decisions on that hard reset. 850 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 4: Absolutely, and. 851 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 3: I'll be the first to say, and honestly, I'm not 852 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:53,880 Speaker 3: the first to say, because I'm sure a lot of 853 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 3: our listeners have said it as well. 854 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 4: But I don't necessarily love this plan. 855 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 3: The idea of in your hopes and dreams on Daniel 856 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 3: Jones seems ridiculous. But this is a decision that they 857 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 3: have made and they do not have a plan B, 858 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 3: or as somebody put it to me on social media 859 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,800 Speaker 3: and some of our listeners here on the text line, 860 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 3: they have chosen not to have a plan B. Like 861 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 3: they were all in on Daniel Jones. They told us 862 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 3: that from the very beginning of the off season. So 863 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 3: here we are now, and now you're banking on a 864 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 3: guy who gets hurt seemingly every year. He's only had 865 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,840 Speaker 3: one full season in his career of playing, and that 866 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,840 Speaker 3: was in twenty twenty two. The NFL is like dog years. 867 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 3: That was a long time ago. So do I trust 868 00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 3: that this will work? 869 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 9: No? 870 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 3: But I understand why the culture doing it. They do 871 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 3: not want to restart at quarterback. They want a chance 872 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,720 Speaker 3: to try to build with Daniel Jones. They truly believe 873 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 3: that the first eight, nine, ten games of last year 874 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 3: were who they could be. 875 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 4: Now they have to be held to that standard. 876 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 3: I think going forward, I don't want to hear anything 877 00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 3: about you know why you struggled or you know, a 878 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 3: rebuilding your restructuring year. No, you should be in contention. 879 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 3: That's what you told us by running it back with 880 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:03,880 Speaker 3: these guys. 881 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think there's no easy, or I think overly 882 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 6: believable answer to satisfy quarterback right now. Honestly, no, especially 883 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:19,239 Speaker 6: without two first round picks. So to me, the question 884 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:23,440 Speaker 6: then becomes what can you do to try and somehow, 885 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 6: some way get to Sam Darnold in Seattle? You know, 886 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 6: is there any quarterback situation right now? Because again there 887 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 6: are people in this Murray camp that say, screw paying 888 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 6: the quarterback major money. Why not just use all that 889 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 6: money and spend it on others In free agency, you know, 890 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 6: build around the quarterback and then you worry about quarterback 891 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 6: a year or two down the road. That's just not 892 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 6: very realistic free agency building. Like look at the free 893 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 6: agent names that are. 894 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 7: Left out there. It's just not realistic. 895 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 6: Free agency is an avenue to help you patch and 896 00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 6: build a little bit but it's not. It can't be 897 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 6: the foundational you know' element to your football team. So 898 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 6: I understand where people are coming from. But again I 899 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 6: think it's a little wishful thinking. Now by no means 900 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 6: by saying Daniel Jones is going to turn into Sam Darnold. 901 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 6: But of all the options out there, is there anything 902 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 6: that you can attempt while you're in this two year 903 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,919 Speaker 6: window without a first round pick to try and get there? 904 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 6: And if you presented all the options to me, okay, 905 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 6: it's probably Jones. Now again, I'm not banking on it happening. 906 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 6: To be clear, I think the injury history is really real, 907 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 6: and I think there's still some He has to prove 908 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 6: as a consistent football play over seventeen games annually. But 909 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 6: if you're gonna present everything to me right now, okay, 910 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,320 Speaker 6: let's try this for a year or two and then 911 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 6: the hard reset comes when you get your first round 912 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:44,399 Speaker 6: picks back. 913 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 4: Question, do you trust your. 914 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 3: Offensive minds in your system more than you trust Daniel Jones? 915 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 3: Or do you trust Daniel Jones more than your system? 916 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 3: Because that's what it comes down to my mind. It's 917 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:59,760 Speaker 3: like if you were to restart with Kyler Murray you're saying, Okay, 918 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 3: our system is so good, our offensive mind to sain 919 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,840 Speaker 3: staking is so good that we can just figure it 920 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 3: out if the quarterback gets competent enough. 921 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 6: Yeah, I definitely trust the Stikeing and the system more 922 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,840 Speaker 6: in the quarter I mean, I don't trust Kyler overly either, 923 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,399 Speaker 6: So yes, to answer, you know, who do I trust more? 924 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 6: Jones or Stiking Stiking? 925 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:21,399 Speaker 4: And I think that's why. 926 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,360 Speaker 3: And I'm not saying it's right or wrong, but this 927 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 3: is why some of the fan bases like, well, if 928 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 3: you trust him so much, you've won the best play 929 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 3: calls in the league, and he'd say his credit did 930 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 3: kind of figure it out with Garden Minshew back in 931 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 3: twenty twenty three, then why can't he do that again 932 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 3: with the quarterback that has some talent and it's much 933 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,839 Speaker 3: cheaper and could probably ideally get us to the same 934 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 3: place as the more expensive Daniel Jones. 935 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 4: So it's not a perfect answer. 936 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 3: They don't have one, And honestly, that's why Daniel Jones 937 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 3: is gonna get the money he's gonna get. Because a 938 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 3: lot of teams are looking for a better answer of quarterback. 939 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 1: Should they point out that Carson Wentz is still available. 940 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 6: Bill Gez might throw up on this box of thin 941 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 6: men's over here. 942 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:02,759 Speaker 1: No, those are supposed to soothe you. 943 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 6: They are, but then you say it's something like that, 944 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:07,920 Speaker 6: just to. 945 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 1: To dot size and cross some te's. The quarterbacks who 946 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:14,399 Speaker 1: have been signed off of free agency this so far, 947 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,320 Speaker 1: this past couple of days, Malik Willis to the Dolphins, 948 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 1: can he pick it? To the Panthers, Marcus Mariota stays 949 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 1: with the Commanders. Gardner Minshew goes to Arizona, case Keenum 950 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 1: to the Bears, Mark Kyle Allen to the Bills, Teddy 951 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:31,240 Speaker 1: Bridgewater to the Lions, Mitchell Trubisky to the Tennessee Titans, 952 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,280 Speaker 1: and most of those guys backing up except for Malik Willis, right. 953 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly again, very bleak when it comes to trying 954 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 3: to find a starting quarterback in free agency. 955 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 1: All right, that's what's happening in the National Football League. 956 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 1: Will go deeper into the Colts and a little bit 957 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,919 Speaker 1: more on the league itself.

The Colts have 970 00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,919 Speaker 1: made some moves. The rest of the National Football League 971 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 1: is getting torn up with trades and signings and recensions 972 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 1: and all kinds of things. And here to help make 973 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 1: sense of all of it, our good friend from ESPN 974 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 1: dot com, Stephenholder, on the pay Lesslookers Hotline. Good morning, 975 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 1: mister Holder. How you doing today? 976 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,479 Speaker 11: I'm doing well. We'll see it has been busy week 977 00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:44,680 Speaker 11: and we'll see what today brings. 978 00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 1: Hey, real quick, before we get to the cult stuff, 979 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 1: what were your thoughts when you saw that the Ravens 980 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,240 Speaker 1: had rescinded the trade with the Raiders and Max Crosby 981 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:56,320 Speaker 1: is going back to Las Vegas and they're going to 982 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 1: keep their two first round picks. 983 00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 11: So I chaos when it's not my chaos to cover. 984 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 11: So I was like watching from afar. I'm not saying 985 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 11: it was funny. It wasn't funny, but it was. It 986 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:16,240 Speaker 11: was definitely I definitely had a good time. I guess 987 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,759 Speaker 11: watching it all play out, it was interesting. It was captivating. 988 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 11: I guess, let's put it that way. It's a disaster. 989 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 11: I don't know if we even understand the totality of 990 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 11: the fallout from this thing just yet. By the way, 991 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:33,880 Speaker 11: because I mean, the Raiders were probably the most active 992 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 11: team in free agency, and they were making those deals. 993 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 11: Those are agreements that haven't been signed yet, and they 994 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 11: were making those deals based on the assumption that they 995 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 11: had Max Crosby's salary moved. So I think today's going 996 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,239 Speaker 11: to be an interesting day. I'm not saying they're going 997 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 11: to bail on those deals, but I do want to 998 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,279 Speaker 11: see if they actually go through with them. 999 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 5: It'll be interesting. 1000 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 3: Again, we're talking to ESPN's Steven Holder here on the 1001 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 3: Palliska's hot Line or I do have a little bit 1002 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 3: of a beef with you because ESPN Radio keeps, you know, 1003 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 3: reaching out to me every Sunday to talk about the 1004 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 3: chaos of the Colts, So stop ducking them, you know, 1005 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:08,279 Speaker 3: all right? 1006 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 4: Do your responsibility is that? 1007 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 5: Really? 1008 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 4: They have every now and then. 1009 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,279 Speaker 3: I think ever since Philip River has happened, I've become like, 1010 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:17,919 Speaker 3: you know, James is our guy to discuss what's going 1011 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 3: on with the weirdness of the Colts. And as you know, 1012 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 3: our beat is not very normal these days. And so 1013 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 3: when you look at you know, I'm serious, you are 1014 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 3: ducking them? 1015 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:31,760 Speaker 4: Man, So I answer the phone. Okay, I'm just joking 1016 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:32,399 Speaker 4: about that though. 1017 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 3: But when it comes to seriously, Daniel Jones and what 1018 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 3: the structure of the deal is, how important do you 1019 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 3: think it is to give yourself an out after let's 1020 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:47,360 Speaker 3: say two years because of the injury history and knowing 1021 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:49,840 Speaker 3: that you do get your first round picks back in 1022 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 3: twenty twenty eight, Like, do you think that's a factor 1023 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 3: and how this deal should be structured? 1024 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:56,760 Speaker 1: Well, I would. 1025 00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,759 Speaker 11: I would imagine the three years is kind of the 1026 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 11: ball park. So if that is in fact the case, 1027 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 11: because I guess that has already been kind of reported, 1028 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,319 Speaker 11: I think that makes sense if we're talking about a 1029 00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,360 Speaker 11: three year deal, that's how you want to do it anyway, 1030 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:15,279 Speaker 11: even without the mitigating circumstances that you're talking about, Right, 1031 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 11: you don't want to have to go into the year 1032 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:21,359 Speaker 11: three of a three year deal and be locked in 1033 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:23,839 Speaker 11: if you can help it right as a team, if 1034 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:27,799 Speaker 11: you can avoid that, and I actually would agree with you, 1035 00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 11: I think you do want to have at least some 1036 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,480 Speaker 11: sort of protection. I just think it's smart in general. 1037 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 11: You know, you want to have some flexibility at the 1038 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,840 Speaker 11: end of every contract. It's not what the player wants, 1039 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,359 Speaker 11: and if he has enough leverage, he can get what 1040 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 11: he wants, right, and so we'll see who wins out, 1041 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:49,200 Speaker 11: But certainly the team wants leverage at the end of 1042 00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,479 Speaker 11: any multi year contract so that they can at least 1043 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,239 Speaker 11: plan for the future, or they can do the necessary 1044 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:57,840 Speaker 11: things that need to be done and move off of 1045 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:01,480 Speaker 11: that contract, whatever it is. So I think really what 1046 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,839 Speaker 11: people probably need to understand, I think is this whole 1047 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 11: Daniel Jones. The debate and negotiation, I believe is much 1048 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:15,399 Speaker 11: less about the dollars and more about some of those details. Right, 1049 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,040 Speaker 11: what are the protections, what are the guarantees? All of that. 1050 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 11: I don't care what his contract demand was. I know 1051 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,239 Speaker 11: there's been a lot of talk about that the last 1052 00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 11: couple of days. I think we were spending way too 1053 00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,759 Speaker 11: much time talking about that. I asked for a lot 1054 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:29,959 Speaker 11: of money from ESPN, and you know what they told 1055 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 11: me to go pounce in. So that's how negotiations work. 1056 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 11: It's more about the details in my in my opinion, 1057 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 11: that's what I think is happening. 1058 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 6: Here again, Steven Holder with us here from ESPN. Steven 1059 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,560 Speaker 6: assuming obviously the cap hit for Daniel Jones will be 1060 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 6: lower by four o'clock today whenever they get this multi 1061 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:52,240 Speaker 6: year deal done. I believe of Bernard Ryman restructure occurred 1062 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 6: this morning or core occurred at some point. 1063 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 4: Here this week. 1064 00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 6: Do you think these continued cap savings, Manu is because 1065 00:49:02,080 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 6: there's more than just Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce that 1066 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:08,280 Speaker 6: want to be done by the Colts aka Trey Hendrickson. 1067 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I do. 1068 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 11: I think there are There are other There are other 1069 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:18,160 Speaker 11: factors here, and edge rush is one of them. I'm 1070 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 11: not saying they're landing Trey Hendrickson, but I am saying 1071 00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 11: they talk to him, and I am saying that I'm 1072 00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 11: not ruling it out. I actually, in the last twenty 1073 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:30,000 Speaker 11: four hours have kind of done an about face on this. 1074 00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,239 Speaker 11: I didn't think they were really in on him, and 1075 00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 11: I don't know that they are like the strongest player. 1076 00:49:36,640 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 11: I don't know that, but I'm not ruling it out. 1077 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 11: So we'll see. They are definitely not done at edge 1078 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 11: rush because that's the thing that I wanted to know 1079 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 11: coming off. And they've made a couple of deals and 1080 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 11: one of those has obviously been arden Key, who was 1081 00:49:52,560 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 11: an edge rusher. Now that deal to me said, Okay, 1082 00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,839 Speaker 11: nice player, but more a rotational player. If he's here 1083 00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 11: as a rotational guy, I like the signing. If he's 1084 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,880 Speaker 11: here to play quiddy pace naps, I don't love the signing. 1085 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 11: So I think they would like him to be a 1086 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:12,359 Speaker 11: rotational guy and continue to supplement that position. But there's 1087 00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:16,640 Speaker 11: not much left at the top of the defensive end market, 1088 00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:20,319 Speaker 11: so really, Trey Henderson has to be a consideration for 1089 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 11: them if that's what they're trying to do is get 1090 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 11: an the league. 1091 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,320 Speaker 1: Guy, Stephen Holder ESPN dot Com joining us in the 1092 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:30,000 Speaker 1: payless Liquors hotline. Everything is done in context, right, and 1093 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,000 Speaker 1: as the Colts move forward and they take a swing 1094 00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:36,160 Speaker 1: at at a Trey Hendrickson or whatever, and yes, they 1095 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:39,080 Speaker 1: have picked up some help in ardent Key, But just 1096 00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,280 Speaker 1: how much better and how much growth do they expect 1097 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 1: from lat tou Latu this year? 1098 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:48,440 Speaker 11: Well, for this to work as it currently stands, they 1099 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:50,000 Speaker 11: need to get a lot of growth from him. The 1100 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:54,240 Speaker 11: problem with that is you know you're banking on potential 1101 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 11: and that's gotten them in trouble before. So as we 1102 00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 11: sit here right now with only what we know at 1103 00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:05,239 Speaker 11: this moment, I do not like their defense. I like 1104 00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 11: their secondary, I do, but their front seven does nothing 1105 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,880 Speaker 11: in terms of turning the page from last year. In fact, 1106 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:16,480 Speaker 11: it's a net negative. You've gotten rid of Zire Franklin, 1107 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 11: You've moved off fro Quidie Pay and these players who 1108 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 11: people maybe didn't want them to retain. That's fine, but 1109 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,520 Speaker 11: they can't walk out the door and now you're better. 1110 00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:27,439 Speaker 5: Right. 1111 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,239 Speaker 11: So that's the bottom line is they have a lot 1112 00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:33,319 Speaker 11: of work to do. If they don't get this work done, 1113 00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:34,880 Speaker 11: they're not better and they're not going to get it 1114 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:38,439 Speaker 11: done all in the draft. So I think they are 1115 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 11: really in the early stages on defense, I would imagine 1116 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 11: right now, I think we have a long way to go. 1117 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:45,399 Speaker 4: Again. 1118 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 3: We're talking to ESPN's Stephen Holder, coach reporter Stephen when 1119 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,359 Speaker 3: looking at the rest of the roster, and we've talked 1120 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:55,160 Speaker 3: a lot about the as rushers, talked a lot about 1121 00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:58,560 Speaker 3: obviously Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce. But when we look 1122 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 3: at linebacker then moving on, I'm from Zaire Franklin. You 1123 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,919 Speaker 3: no longer have Jermaine Prown or contract. I'm a sure 1124 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:07,799 Speaker 3: a free agent. How much of a need do you 1125 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 3: think that is and perhaps is it easier to address 1126 00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 3: it in the draft or do you have to also 1127 00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 3: look at free agency to find maybe a proven guy. 1128 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 11: Is this linebacker specifically? 1129 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 4: He said, yes, linebacker specifically? 1130 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,640 Speaker 11: Yeah, Yeah, I think they got a lot of work 1131 00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 11: to do there. I don't think there's any question now 1132 00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 11: they will address it in the draft. I think that 1133 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:32,919 Speaker 11: is pretty clear. And the early assessment is that there 1134 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 11: are some good linebackers in this class. And I trust 1135 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:39,360 Speaker 11: the Colts there. They have never had a problem drafting linebackers. 1136 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 11: For whatever reason, they always hit. However, I don't think 1137 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 11: you can rely completely on that. 1138 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:46,880 Speaker 5: That would be foolish. 1139 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:51,759 Speaker 11: And as much as lou Ana Roumo really tried to 1140 00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:55,759 Speaker 11: downplay the importance of the linebacker position last year, I 1141 00:52:55,800 --> 00:53:00,319 Speaker 11: would say opposing offenses feel differently because they all the 1142 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,759 Speaker 11: weakness and they went after it. Okay, So, and I'm 1143 00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 11: talking in the passing game in particular. So unless you 1144 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,840 Speaker 11: were ready to do something to mitigate that from a 1145 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 11: scheme perspective, you've got to address it with personnel. So 1146 00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:17,239 Speaker 11: you know, I understand that maybe it's not the most 1147 00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 11: important part of his defense. That's true, but we can't 1148 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 11: just excuse me. But we can't just pretend it doesn't matter, 1149 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:30,480 Speaker 11: because good offensive coaches will make you get into matchups 1150 00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 11: you don't want to be in. And we saw it 1151 00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 11: time and time again last year. They got to avoid 1152 00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:35,839 Speaker 11: being in that position. 1153 00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 6: Again, Steven. Last one for me, I was looking up yesterday. 1154 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:42,680 Speaker 6: If you look at four players that have left the 1155 00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,920 Speaker 6: team to trades, to free agent signings, Quitty Pay, Braden Smith, 1156 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:49,959 Speaker 6: Michael Pittman Junior or Zaia Franklin. I want to say 1157 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:52,840 Speaker 6: all four of them ranking the top ten of most 1158 00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:56,839 Speaker 6: games started in the Chris Ballard era. Do you view 1159 00:53:56,920 --> 00:54:00,600 Speaker 6: that as welcome to the salary cap when you have 1160 00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:02,480 Speaker 6: to start to pay a quarterback in a white out 1161 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,560 Speaker 6: or do you view it more in the welcome to 1162 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:06,879 Speaker 6: life when you don't win? 1163 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 5: So it is a little of both for sure. 1164 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:14,960 Speaker 6: Right, but because it's anti Ballad, I guess is what 1165 00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:17,480 Speaker 6: I'm getting at. We really haven't seen him part ways 1166 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 6: with a lot of the mainstays. 1167 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:24,759 Speaker 11: Yeah, well I'll say this Zire Franklin for example. You 1168 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:29,280 Speaker 11: know the quote somebody in the building gave me about 1169 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 11: Zire Franklin. It was very it was very succinct, but 1170 00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:35,880 Speaker 11: it said a lot. And the quote was it was 1171 00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 11: time okay, And what does that say to me? That 1172 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 11: says we didn't enjoy doing this. We didn't you know, 1173 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:46,959 Speaker 11: we didn't revel in it, and they maybe didn't even 1174 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 11: want to do it. But they had to do it, 1175 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:51,320 Speaker 11: and they didn't have to do it because of money. 1176 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 11: I think he's the best example, Like they didn't have 1177 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 11: to cut Zire Franklin. Excuse you trade him just for 1178 00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:02,160 Speaker 11: just for financial purpose. I mean, if you really wanted 1179 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:06,360 Speaker 11: him on your team, that was very doable. They decided 1180 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,000 Speaker 11: from a football perspective they had to move on. And 1181 00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:12,840 Speaker 11: I think Braiden Smith's same thing. It wasn't that Braiden 1182 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 11: Smith can still play, and certainly the Houston Texans agree, 1183 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:19,160 Speaker 11: but I think you made a hard choice there. Look, 1184 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 11: we drafted these young guys for a reason. I think 1185 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:24,840 Speaker 11: they have to get younger. That's the other thing. This team, 1186 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 11: that group had been together for a long time. I 1187 00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:30,520 Speaker 11: love all those guys I've covered. We spent a lot 1188 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:32,719 Speaker 11: of time with those guys, all of us right and 1189 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:36,920 Speaker 11: personally and even from a football perspective, I think all 1190 00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,920 Speaker 11: those guys have had great times here. But ultimately, you 1191 00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:42,880 Speaker 11: can't fall in love man, because you got nothing to 1192 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,320 Speaker 11: show for it. And I think that is the bottom line. 1193 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,520 Speaker 11: They got a lot of snaps out of these guys, 1194 00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 11: they didn't get a lot of wins out of those guys. 1195 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,040 Speaker 1: Last thing for me, Stephen Jermaine pett s they're going 1196 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,719 Speaker 1: to be on the Indianapolis Colts on opening day in September. 1197 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:01,640 Speaker 11: I think that one's very very much TBD. I think 1198 00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:06,120 Speaker 11: what you have there is he's probably a lower priority 1199 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:09,520 Speaker 11: because they want to see what other dominoes fall at 1200 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,880 Speaker 11: linebacker first, and then I think you deal with him later. 1201 00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:17,240 Speaker 11: I'm not saying months from now, but maybe days or weeks. 1202 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:19,080 Speaker 11: I don't know, you know, so, I think they need 1203 00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,880 Speaker 11: to find out where where they are at that position 1204 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 11: first and then go from there. I think when you 1205 00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:29,400 Speaker 11: talk about getting younger and faster. That to me says 1206 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 11: we want to consider some other options. I don't know, 1207 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 11: that's that's what it says to me. We'll see what 1208 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:35,600 Speaker 11: they actually do. 1209 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 1: All right, buddy, always good to talk to. Enjoy the 1210 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:40,640 Speaker 1: rest of your Wednesday. I know you'll keep everybody up 1211 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: to date at ESPN dot com. And we ask everybody, 1212 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:45,400 Speaker 1: including you to this keep it tune to ninety three 1213 00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:46,840 Speaker 1: five and one to seventy five to fan for the 1214 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:48,759 Speaker 1: very latest in cults is Thanks Bud. 1215 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:50,680 Speaker 5: All right, see you guys. 1216 00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:53,439 Speaker 1: Steven Holder joining us on the Payless Liquors hotline right there. 1217 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 1: And uh, I don't know if if it all works out, James, 1218 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:00,919 Speaker 1: if they restructured Daniel Jones and how some way they 1219 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 1: get Trey Hendrickson or at least another big time edge rusher. 1220 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:06,879 Speaker 1: Do you call the offseason at this point in time 1221 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,440 Speaker 1: of success? 1222 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 3: I would say so, but we got to get there. Yeah, 1223 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 3: I don't want to, you know. I love your optimism, Jeff, 1224 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:18,920 Speaker 3: I'm just asking the question a pessimist to the end. 1225 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 3: With the Colts, I gotta see results, baby. They have 1226 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:23,560 Speaker 3: not earned the right for me to think best case 1227 00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:26,080 Speaker 3: scenario with this team. But yes, that would be ideally 1228 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 3: what they want to happen. 1229 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think when it comes to pass rush, you know, 1230 00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:31,560 Speaker 6: I was probably a little bit more in the camp 1231 00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 6: with some of the guys we saw Monday, a little 1232 00:57:33,720 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 6: bit of a younger option Hendrickson. You know, he has 1233 00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:40,400 Speaker 6: great history in the league. I mean, hell, two years 1234 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:42,680 Speaker 6: ago he led the league in sacks. But when you 1235 00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 6: reach the age of thirty two years seem like potentially 1236 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 6: dog ears and how a player can age, particularly at 1237 00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 6: a position like that. And now we're talking a core surgery, 1238 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 6: you know, hip surgery that he has also had. But again, 1239 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 6: you have to continue to swing the bat. You you 1240 00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 6: have to. Just because the Colts have had all full 1241 00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:10,600 Speaker 6: draft history at defensive end doesn't mean that you stop swinging. 1242 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 6: There are risks. It is by no means a guarantee. 1243 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:18,920 Speaker 6: But if some trio of Laotu Latu, if Forrest Buckner 1244 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:22,880 Speaker 6: and Trey Hendrickson, if one of those all of a 1245 00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 6: sudden starts to be an elite pass rusher for you 1246 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:30,680 Speaker 6: commanding a double team, then what does that open up 1247 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 6: for the other two? What does that, you know, do 1248 00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:35,920 Speaker 6: for your pass rush? That I think is what you 1249 00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 6: have to try and achieve, and again, the Colts have 1250 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,400 Speaker 6: had an individual pass rush problem dating back to Robert 1251 00:58:41,480 --> 00:58:44,640 Speaker 6: Mathis retiring. Really, if you go all the way back 1252 00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:47,760 Speaker 6: to Mathis he led the league in sacks in twenty thirteen. 1253 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:49,959 Speaker 1: Since that season twenty thirteen. 1254 00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 6: What year is it, twenty twenty six, they've had two 1255 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:56,120 Speaker 6: guys reached double digits and sacks two. I mean that's 1256 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:58,280 Speaker 6: Eric Walden and Justin Houston. And they barely even reach 1257 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:02,600 Speaker 6: that number. So if you look at that, it correlates 1258 00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:04,960 Speaker 6: directly to the playoff drought. If you look at other 1259 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 6: teams that have had that small of number, We're talking 1260 00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 6: the Jets, We're talking the Falcons. We're talking teams that 1261 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 6: are on that list of one of the longest playoff 1262 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 6: droughts currently in the NFL. So that's why I think 1263 00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:18,960 Speaker 6: I will continue to say that you have to swing 1264 00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:21,760 Speaker 6: the bat. Just because you've missed, just because you haven't hit, 1265 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 6: doesn't mean you stop. And I would like to see 1266 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,720 Speaker 6: them try and do something here, not that there's a 1267 00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:30,000 Speaker 6: lot left in free agency, but also come back in 1268 00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:31,919 Speaker 6: the draft and spend a Day two pick there. 1269 00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:34,360 Speaker 1: It's Fan Morning Show ninety three to five, one oh 1270 00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:38,960 Speaker 1: seven five. The fan, we're following the Colts in the NFL, 1271 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: all those kinds of things. Kirk wants to know. Don't 1272 00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 1: understand why they defend keeping Buckner. He's older, he's hurt, 1273 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,600 Speaker 1: he's expensive, probably starting to decline. What are you guys' 1274 00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 1: thoughts on that? 1275 00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, obviously you have some questions with Buckner 1276 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 6: and the next surgery from last year. But you know, again, 1277 00:59:58,080 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 6: you can't just cut everybody and all of a sudden 1278 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,800 Speaker 6: nap your fingers and hope that whatever the next dude 1279 01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:05,200 Speaker 6: is going to rise to be into Forrest Buckner. I 1280 01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:06,960 Speaker 6: think the hope there is this is a guy that 1281 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 6: is a absolute athletic freak. He used battled injuries. Here 1282 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 6: is surgery. You hope that he's got a little bit 1283 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:17,000 Speaker 6: left in the tank here. So yeah, I got no 1284 01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:18,680 Speaker 6: issue trying to see if there's something left with the 1285 01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:20,800 Speaker 6: Forest Buckner. I think he's proven throughout his career to 1286 01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:25,440 Speaker 6: be a pretty durable player and a pretty effective player. Again, 1287 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:27,960 Speaker 6: I think it's just kind of an easy answer, say, oh, 1288 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 6: I just cut everybody. It makes a lot of money 1289 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:32,600 Speaker 6: and go, you know, get new people. It's just not 1290 01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:34,240 Speaker 6: that easy to that. 1291 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 1: And George says if the Colts do get things settled 1292 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:39,520 Speaker 1: with the quarterback and we're to somehow get an impact edge, 1293 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:41,680 Speaker 1: would it be correct to assume that bringing in an 1294 01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 1: additional quarterback would be completely out of the picture then, 1295 01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:48,080 Speaker 1: because Justin Field's probably getting released if he's not already. 1296 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 1: And my initial thought, and tell me if I'm wrong, James, 1297 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 1: is they kind of like what they saw a little 1298 01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,200 Speaker 1: bit in Riley Leonard and he seems like the optional 1299 01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:56,960 Speaker 1: backup quarterback right now, doesn't he? Yeah? 1300 01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:00,480 Speaker 3: And I can't quote Tom Moore here on these areas, 1301 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,520 Speaker 3: but I believe the line back in the day was 1302 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 3: if eighteen goes down, we're bleeped, And that's exactly what 1303 01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 3: the Colts are basically saying with Daniel Jones. Like I 1304 01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:11,240 Speaker 3: love Riley Leonard, I do think he showed a lot 1305 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:13,360 Speaker 3: more than I expected it towards the end of last year, 1306 01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:15,640 Speaker 3: especially in the season finale. But if the Colts had 1307 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 3: turned to him for an extended period of time, that 1308 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 3: would not go well for them in my opinion. So 1309 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 3: their plan, and again you can argue that it's a 1310 01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 3: bad plan, is Daniel Jones or basically no one like 1311 01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,640 Speaker 3: that is the end result? I would love to tell 1312 01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:33,480 Speaker 3: you that they want to pivot or try to bring 1313 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:34,640 Speaker 3: in on their veteran quarterback. 1314 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:36,680 Speaker 4: That ain't the plan. The plan is to make sure 1315 01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 4: that Daniel Jones is their guy. 1316 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,080 Speaker 1: Kevin. You know Riley Leonard better than anybody on this 1317 01:01:41,160 --> 01:01:44,120 Speaker 1: panel right here, watching him all the time at Notre Dame. 1318 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:46,440 Speaker 1: How surprised were you at the way he did play 1319 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 1: when he was called upon late in the season last year? Yeah? 1320 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:55,200 Speaker 6: I was because I thought against Houston, specifically, he made 1321 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:57,800 Speaker 6: a lot of plays with his arm, not necessarily with 1322 01:01:57,840 --> 01:02:01,440 Speaker 6: his legs. And that's the question, is canny throw delivered 1323 01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:03,560 Speaker 6: from the pocket at an NFL level? I think a 1324 01:02:03,560 --> 01:02:05,640 Speaker 6: lot of the stuff he did in college successfully throw 1325 01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 6: in it. It was, you know, kind off the move. 1326 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,040 Speaker 6: You know he's a great runner, so you know that 1327 01:02:10,080 --> 01:02:12,960 Speaker 6: element I was impressed by of like, wow, he had 1328 01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:15,160 Speaker 6: some success with Houston starting defense and then for the 1329 01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 6: first half largely with his right arm. Now, let's not 1330 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 6: overreact to six quarters of football. But that element to 1331 01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 6: Riley's game is where he has to grow the most. 1332 01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 6: There's a reason why he fell to the one hundred 1333 01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,000 Speaker 6: and what eighty ninth pick in the draft for a 1334 01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 6: guy that has good size, great leadership. Let Notre Dame 1335 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,640 Speaker 6: to do a national championship. Can make plays with his legs. 1336 01:02:37,080 --> 01:02:39,880 Speaker 6: Smart kid, yeah, smartt Like, Okay, why does that dude 1337 01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:41,880 Speaker 6: fall so far? Well, there are major questions about him 1338 01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:45,040 Speaker 6: thrown it, and he by all accounts, he's gonna get 1339 01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 6: the spring reps. I do not think the cults are 1340 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,439 Speaker 6: going to go out and make a veteran quarterback move 1341 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:53,720 Speaker 6: of serious note here. I think Riley Leonard will be 1342 01:02:53,800 --> 01:02:57,080 Speaker 6: this team's starting quarterback in the spring. We'll see when 1343 01:02:57,160 --> 01:03:01,280 Speaker 6: Daniel Jones gets clearance, but it would be my assumption. 1344 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:03,520 Speaker 1: For those listening and not watching on YouTube. You have 1345 01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:06,440 Speaker 1: the air quotes there starting quarterback in this spring, just 1346 01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:07,320 Speaker 1: so people know. 1347 01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:11,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, just well, you need a body to throw pass 1348 01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:12,120 Speaker 4: I bring in. 1349 01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:14,120 Speaker 1: Sorry, I'm just pointing out that you had the air 1350 01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:17,320 Speaker 1: quotes for those who starting quarterback.

Just 1405 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:49,160 Speaker 1: crazy stuff going on with all that happening last night. 1406 01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: There wasn't a full moon last night that I know 1407 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:51,640 Speaker 1: it was there. 1408 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:52,440 Speaker 6: I don't know. 1409 01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:56,120 Speaker 1: I left out the big one too, right. Bam Autobio 1410 01:05:56,240 --> 01:05:58,600 Speaker 1: scored eighty three points for the Miami Heat. 1411 01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:01,560 Speaker 6: You imagine yesterday if we sat here and said, all right, guys, 1412 01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 6: somebody's gonna score eighty three to the NBA game coming 1413 01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,520 Speaker 6: up Tonight's let's all go around.

How many rounds would we 1415 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:12,840 Speaker 6: have gotten to before bam Attebaiyo got picked. 1416 01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:15,320 Speaker 1: He'd never scored more than forty one in his entire 1417 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:16,720 Speaker 1: lengthy NBA career. 1418 01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:19,959 Speaker 4: Well, to answer the question, I probably go round ten 1419 01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 4: or lower. 1420 01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:25,120 Speaker 1: We're gonna go over all the crazy things. 1421 01:06:25,280 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 4: The point per game later for his career score. 1422 01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:30,480 Speaker 3: I I had to pick a guy who I think 1423 01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:32,880 Speaker 3: could even do it, probably Devin Booker, because I've seen 1424 01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 3: him score sixty before, sixty two in person, actually here 1425 01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:37,080 Speaker 3: in Indianapolis. 1426 01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:39,640 Speaker 4: So wild night again. 1427 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:43,240 Speaker 3: The ethics crew I get is out saying, oh, you 1428 01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:45,240 Speaker 3: know what did he do to get the record? I 1429 01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:48,480 Speaker 3: blame the Wizards. They stink so bad. They let one 1430 01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 3: man score eighty three points. 1431 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:50,240 Speaker 4: Blame them. 1432 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:52,959 Speaker 1: They let Miami score one hundred and fifty as a team. 1433 01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 1: So aside from his eighty three, the rest of the 1434 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:57,680 Speaker 1: team still had over seventy points. 1435 01:06:57,760 --> 01:06:59,959 Speaker 4: Adam Silver, find them for tanking please. 1436 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,360 Speaker 1: Uh twenty nine was the final score there the numbers 1437 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:06,000 Speaker 1: on the box score. And we'll get him to him 1438 01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:08,320 Speaker 1: a little bit later on at Tobio was twenty of 1439 01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:11,400 Speaker 1: forty three from the field, seven of twenty two from 1440 01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:15,120 Speaker 1: three point range, thirty six of forty three from the 1441 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 1: free throw line. They fouled him enough, James to send 1442 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:21,480 Speaker 1: him to the line forty three times as an individual 1443 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:22,120 Speaker 1: last night. 1444 01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:24,960 Speaker 4: Just ridiculous. 1445 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:27,200 Speaker 1: All right, now we'll go into the meat of all 1446 01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:30,720 Speaker 1: these headlines. We'll start with the NFL, the Indianapolis Colts 1447 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:32,960 Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a second. But your thoughts, 1448 01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:36,880 Speaker 1: Kevin on the Ravens failing Max Crosby's physical sending him 1449 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:40,280 Speaker 1: back to the Raiders, keeping their two first round picks. 1450 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 1: Everybody in the world knew that Max Crosby had had 1451 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:47,240 Speaker 1: meniscus surgery on one of his knees in January. They 1452 01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:48,240 Speaker 1: made the trade anyway. 1453 01:07:48,760 --> 01:07:51,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, And this just in from Dana Russini, James's colleague, 1454 01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 6: and again this is some of the domino effect that 1455 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:55,680 Speaker 6: I was curious about Latree Henderson. My first thought when 1456 01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:58,720 Speaker 6: I saw this news last night was does that mean 1457 01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:02,440 Speaker 6: Baltimore as a player for Trey Hendrickson? And Dian Rassini 1458 01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 6: just reported the Eagles, Colts, and now the Baltimore Ravens 1459 01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:10,120 Speaker 6: are all making offers in an attempt to land Hendrickson, 1460 01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 6: the top free agent remaining on the board. So that 1461 01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:16,880 Speaker 6: was my first thought last night was, ooh boy, this 1462 01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:20,000 Speaker 6: could have domino effect that is not just quitty pay 1463 01:08:20,040 --> 01:08:23,839 Speaker 6: situation with the Raiders could have direct impact on the Colts, 1464 01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:25,799 Speaker 6: and I think what have we seen from the Ravens. 1465 01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:29,519 Speaker 6: There is obviously a clear push here to try and 1466 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:31,280 Speaker 6: go as all in as possible. I mean, they made 1467 01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:36,400 Speaker 6: a massive trade for Max Crosby here, So yeah, here 1468 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:39,000 Speaker 6: we go strap in. I mean, Eagles Ravens. You want 1469 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:42,639 Speaker 6: to talk about teams with legit, legit playoff chances, and 1470 01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:44,719 Speaker 6: the Colts have the connection here of Loui An Arumo 1471 01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:48,480 Speaker 6: and Marion Hobby, his position coach from his days in Cincinnati. 1472 01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:52,160 Speaker 6: So this is quite the news item here. Obviously, the 1473 01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:54,920 Speaker 6: Daniel Jones situation will be one to watch by four 1474 01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:57,880 Speaker 6: o'clock today, but I think this is right there on 1475 01:08:57,920 --> 01:08:58,639 Speaker 6: the radar as well. 1476 01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:01,960 Speaker 2: How good of friends are Trey Hendrickson and Luannarumo, That's 1477 01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,040 Speaker 2: what we got to do. Exactly are they friends on Facebook? 1478 01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 2: Have they gone to dinner? 1479 01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 6: Have they liked each other's Instagram? They share Fitinan's with 1480 01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:11,040 Speaker 6: each other? Marian Hobby comedy. 1481 01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:13,360 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what he's bring themis in negotiation. 1482 01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:14,360 Speaker 4: He's going elsewhere. 1483 01:09:15,320 --> 01:09:17,320 Speaker 1: Mark. I've had many players tell me over the years 1484 01:09:17,360 --> 01:09:19,240 Speaker 1: that they have lots of friends in the NFL, and 1485 01:09:19,439 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 1: even if they go play in a different city, they 1486 01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 1: are still friends with those people. That's true when it's 1487 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:25,120 Speaker 1: all said and done. So we wait and see what 1488 01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:28,240 Speaker 1: happens with the Indianapolis Colts. Fairly quiet day yesterday, except 1489 01:09:28,320 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 1: we learned overnight that it looks like they're getting closer 1490 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:34,680 Speaker 1: and closer to a deal James with Daniel Jones. What 1491 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 1: do we know about that? 1492 01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:38,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, so the NFL network guys were up early this 1493 01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:41,280 Speaker 3: morning reporting that the Colts trying to work toward a 1494 01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 3: two year deal with Daniel Jones. We could see a 1495 01:09:44,400 --> 01:09:46,320 Speaker 3: resolution as soon as today. 1496 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:47,040 Speaker 4: Now. 1497 01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:49,759 Speaker 3: That would certainly benefit me because I hate waiting around 1498 01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 3: for things to happen. But as far as the Colts, 1499 01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 3: who are the bigger, you know, piece of the pie 1500 01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:56,880 Speaker 3: here and it's equation, I think that it would allow 1501 01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 3: them to move forward what we just talked about. Do 1502 01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 3: you want to pursue interesting Do you want to try 1503 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:03,840 Speaker 3: to get other deficiencies on your roster kind of filled 1504 01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:06,160 Speaker 3: out or checked out? And you are able to have 1505 01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,320 Speaker 3: a better evaluation of that when you get your quarterback 1506 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:10,679 Speaker 3: lockdown long term? 1507 01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:12,320 Speaker 1: All right, Well, keep an eye on that and you 1508 01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:15,160 Speaker 1: can listen to any developments all day right here as 1509 01:10:15,200 --> 01:10:17,920 Speaker 1: they happen. On ninety three, five and one seven NBA. 1510 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,479 Speaker 1: Last night, Pacers wrapped up a four game West Coast 1511 01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:22,960 Speaker 1: road trip with four losses. Out there ten in a 1512 01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:26,439 Speaker 1: row overall. Right now, they lose to Sacramento one fourteen, 1513 01:10:26,479 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 1: one oh nine, Kevin. They led this game by as 1514 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 1: many as twenty Aaron Nee Smith scored twenty nine points 1515 01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:35,920 Speaker 1: in this one. Although they did not use most of 1516 01:10:35,960 --> 01:10:38,880 Speaker 1: their better players in the fourth quarter, they dropped a 1517 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:42,719 Speaker 1: fifteen and fifty and right now they are the worst 1518 01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:44,760 Speaker 1: team in the NBA, a half game worse than the 1519 01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 1: aforementioned Sacramento games. 1520 01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:48,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, just to be clear, they were up twenty with 1521 01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:50,679 Speaker 6: four minutes ago in the third quarter. Actually was another 1522 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:52,360 Speaker 6: kind of a rough nights. I was actually watching a 1523 01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 6: little bit of that trying to rocker, and it was wild. 1524 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:58,000 Speaker 6: Devin Carter came off the bench with the Kings and 1525 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:01,120 Speaker 6: he helly looked like bam Autamayo last night in getting 1526 01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 6: the Kings back into the game, and all of a sudden, 1527 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:06,040 Speaker 6: you blinked and the twenty point Pacer lead was gone. 1528 01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:10,040 Speaker 6: So yeah, unless the final month of the season is 1529 01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:12,240 Speaker 6: a total oneint eighty, the Pacers will be in a 1530 01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:14,800 Speaker 6: position with the best odds possible. Now, it's still a 1531 01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:17,200 Speaker 6: coin flip for a top four pick, but they have 1532 01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:22,200 Speaker 6: positioned themselves beautifully to be in the top three in 1533 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:24,640 Speaker 6: terms of the odds, which again all three of the 1534 01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:25,679 Speaker 6: worst records in the NBA. 1535 01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:27,880 Speaker 7: They have the same odds as getting a top four pick. 1536 01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:31,360 Speaker 1: All right, college basketball getting ready for March Madness. Later 1537 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:34,360 Speaker 1: on today in the Big East Tournament, Providence will play Butler. 1538 01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 1: That's a four pm start.

But the game we were watching, Northwestern gets 1544 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:56,839 Speaker 1: past Penn State seventy six sixty six. It'll be Indiana 1545 01:11:56,960 --> 01:12:00,360 Speaker 1: and Northwestern at six thirty tonight up in Chicago with 1546 01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:02,439 Speaker 1: the Big Ten Tournament.

Nothing quite strikes sphere 1553 01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:21,400 Speaker 6: into who's your program like a Martinelli and a Collins. 1554 01:12:22,520 --> 01:12:24,840 Speaker 6: That'll be the task tonight, so good bubble help, I 1555 01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:28,400 Speaker 6: would say for Indiana. Yesterday Stanford lose in that was 1556 01:12:28,439 --> 01:12:31,720 Speaker 6: a crazy finish, Virginia Tech lose him the ACC But 1557 01:12:31,800 --> 01:12:34,880 Speaker 6: Yetta do your part, and again tonight's just one part 1558 01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:36,639 Speaker 6: of it. Then you got to do it tomorrow against Purdue. 1559 01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:40,280 Speaker 6: So yeah, huge, huge one if you want optimism, Indiana 1560 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:42,439 Speaker 6: shot the cover off of it inside of the United 1561 01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:46,320 Speaker 6: Center what some five months ago against Marquette, So that's 1562 01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:48,880 Speaker 6: what they will try to do tonight against Northwestern. I 1563 01:12:48,920 --> 01:12:51,080 Speaker 6: believe the big guy Arrington Page, who had a nice 1564 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:53,040 Speaker 6: game in Bloomington, he was out last night due to 1565 01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:55,479 Speaker 6: illness for Northwestern, So that would be something to keep 1566 01:12:55,479 --> 01:12:56,800 Speaker 6: an eye on for tonight. 1567 01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,599 Speaker 4: Get a win today, IU Butler both or neither? 1568 01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:03,160 Speaker 7: Oh, are you doing your all Indiana parlay? 1569 01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 5: Maybe? 1570 01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:07,360 Speaker 6: So maybe's favored by what three and a half? Butler 1571 01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:09,040 Speaker 6: is like a one point underdog. 1572 01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:11,800 Speaker 1: I believe that's true. I'll have to check at the break. 1573 01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:14,240 Speaker 6: Gosh, Mark, I want to be optimistic, but damn the 1574 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:17,240 Speaker 6: state of Indiana it's just been it's been. 1575 01:13:17,160 --> 01:13:20,040 Speaker 1: A rough year. I'll be the optimist, Mark, I say, 1576 01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:20,960 Speaker 1: they both win tonight. 1577 01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:21,559 Speaker 2: Look at that. 1578 01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:23,840 Speaker 6: By the way, speaking of wild finishes, the Horizon League 1579 01:13:23,840 --> 01:13:27,360 Speaker 6: title game last night was awesome. Shout out Kellen Pickett, 1580 01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:33,200 Speaker 6: Fort Wayne, Blackhawk Christian a huge block to send Right 1581 01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:36,599 Speaker 6: State into the NCAA Tournament. The block to keep it 1582 01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:40,920 Speaker 6: in bounds also, I thought was pretty pretty impressive. So 1583 01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:44,640 Speaker 6: Right State, you know, kind of led by two freshmen 1584 01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 6: from the state of Indiana that were Indiana All Stars 1585 01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:47,840 Speaker 6: last year. 1586 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:49,400 Speaker 4: Michael Cooper from Jeffersonville. 1587 01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 6: He actually missed two free throws late last night that 1588 01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:54,679 Speaker 6: led to that block that was needed from Picket Pickett 1589 01:13:54,680 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 6: again from up in Fort Wayne, and so great, great 1590 01:13:57,439 --> 01:13:59,879 Speaker 6: game inside of Courteva Police, and I felt for Detroit, 1591 01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:02,360 Speaker 6: you know again they had won one game two years ago, 1592 01:14:02,439 --> 01:14:05,519 Speaker 6: one in thirty one, and they were one shot away 1593 01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:06,879 Speaker 6: from being in the nca tournament. 1594 01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:10,040 Speaker 1: Also at Corteba Coliseum last night, top seed Green Bay 1595 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,240 Speaker 1: women beat Youngstown State. I guess it was in the 1596 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:15,240 Speaker 1: afternoon yesterday. Fifty seven to forty nine was the final 1597 01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:20,000 Speaker 1: score there. Late last night, Joe Lonardi updated his bracketology 1598 01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:22,800 Speaker 1: at eleven forty pm when all the results were in 1599 01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:27,879 Speaker 1: James and right now He's got Indiana as the last team, 1600 01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:32,120 Speaker 1: the last of the last four in in the NCAA tournament, 1601 01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:34,760 Speaker 1: which tells me they get to win over Northwestern. That 1602 01:14:34,840 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 1: helps them a little bit more. Maybe they move up 1603 01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 1: a line or two from that last in. 1604 01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:40,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't have much room for air. So go 1605 01:14:41,040 --> 01:14:41,719 Speaker 3: beat the nerds. 1606 01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:45,160 Speaker 1: All right, that's what's happening in college basketball right now. 1607 01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:49,640 Speaker 1: World Baseball Classic. Tough day for Team USA yesterday they 1608 01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:52,559 Speaker 1: fell behind eight nothing to Italy. They end up losing 1609 01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 1: eight to six. Aaron Judge struck out with the he 1610 01:14:56,760 --> 01:15:00,120 Speaker 1: was representing the tying run in the ninth inning as 1611 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:03,320 Speaker 1: Italy closed that game out. Here's what it means now, 1612 01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:06,519 Speaker 1: and this is kind of crazy stuff when we start 1613 01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:10,920 Speaker 1: talking about what happens next in World Baseball Classic, are 1614 01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:14,560 Speaker 1: you ready for the tiebreaker? They need either Italy to 1615 01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:18,240 Speaker 1: beat Mexico outright today that would be two losses for Mexico. 1616 01:15:18,560 --> 01:15:21,240 Speaker 1: But if Mexico beats Italy, there's a three way tie 1617 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:24,840 Speaker 1: and the tiebreser breakers are crazy. Kevin, I'm just going 1618 01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:28,479 Speaker 1: to read you the you're probably amongst us, maybe the 1619 01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:32,479 Speaker 1: best math nerd here. I don't know, lowest Quotia the 1620 01:15:32,520 --> 01:15:36,479 Speaker 1: first tiebreaker is the lowest quotia lost me lowest quotient 1621 01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:39,680 Speaker 1: of fewest runs allowed divided by the number of defensive 1622 01:15:39,720 --> 01:15:42,960 Speaker 1: outs recorded in games between the teams that are tied. 1623 01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:48,679 Speaker 1: In English, that means what, essentially, Team USA and its fans, 1624 01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:52,200 Speaker 1: we need to root for Italy and a lot of runs. 1625 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,559 Speaker 1: If Mexico scores six or more runs in a nine 1626 01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:59,920 Speaker 1: inning game, regardless of the result, that apparently under the 1627 01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:04,280 Speaker 1: after further calculations, would be enough for Team USA to advance. 1628 01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:07,519 Speaker 1: A low scoring game like a four to two Mexico win, 1629 01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:11,720 Speaker 1: on the other hand, would see tam USA get eliminated. 1630 01:16:12,120 --> 01:16:14,880 Speaker 6: So you either want Italy to do really, really good 1631 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:17,679 Speaker 6: or Mexico to score a lot or go to score 1632 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:20,519 Speaker 6: a million runs.

If you're just waking up this morning, a 1663 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:30,880 Speaker 1: lot of crazy things happening overnight chief among them. In 1664 01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 1: the NBA. We had a player score eighty three points 1665 01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:39,759 Speaker 1: in a game last night. It was not Kevin Durant, 1666 01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:43,360 Speaker 1: it was not shake Gilges Alexander, it wasn't any of 1667 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:47,120 Speaker 1: the usual suspects. It was the man we all thought 1668 01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:49,920 Speaker 1: would somedays score eighty points in a game, James Bam 1669 01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:53,120 Speaker 1: out of Bio for the Miami Heat. And you're blaming 1670 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:54,360 Speaker 1: the Wizards more than anything else. 1671 01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:57,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Wizards think they should get fined for tanking. 1672 01:17:57,200 --> 01:17:59,599 Speaker 3: I'm dead serious on that. Like to let a man 1673 01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:02,760 Speaker 3: score eighty three points and to continue to just hack him, 1674 01:18:02,800 --> 01:18:04,360 Speaker 3: I mean, my god, they could not guard the man 1675 01:18:04,439 --> 01:18:07,360 Speaker 3: at all. That to me lets me know you are 1676 01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:09,240 Speaker 3: not an NBA team. You're not trying to be an 1677 01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 3: NBA team. So as egregious as the Colts, I'm sorry, 1678 01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:16,280 Speaker 3: a noto the Colts. The Pacers were penalized or how 1679 01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:18,200 Speaker 3: the league tried to make them look when they were 1680 01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:20,680 Speaker 3: fine for tanking. What are the Wizards doing if it's 1681 01:18:20,720 --> 01:18:22,599 Speaker 3: not losing in historic fashion? 1682 01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:25,080 Speaker 1: Well, let's go inside some of the numbers last night. 1683 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 1: So twenty of forty three from the field, including seven 1684 01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 1: of twenty two from three point range, thirty six of 1685 01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:34,000 Speaker 1: forty three from the free throw line. Remember the old 1686 01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:34,559 Speaker 1: hack a shack. 1687 01:18:34,640 --> 01:18:35,160 Speaker 4: It was hack a. 1688 01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:39,160 Speaker 1: Bam last night for the Washington Wizards. So prior to 1689 01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:42,559 Speaker 1: last night's game, Kevin his career high was forty one. 1690 01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:45,559 Speaker 1: The total from his two highest scoring games in his 1691 01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:48,840 Speaker 1: career forty one and thirty eight, less than the eighty 1692 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:54,360 Speaker 1: three he scored last night, there have now been He's 1693 01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:58,000 Speaker 1: the eleventh different NBA player in history to score at 1694 01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:01,960 Speaker 1: least seventy points in a game. Wilt did it six times. 1695 01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:04,400 Speaker 1: You know some of the other ones there. He is 1696 01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:07,160 Speaker 1: the first player with a sixty point game this year. 1697 01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:09,960 Speaker 1: Nikola Jokic had been the last player with a sixty 1698 01:19:09,960 --> 01:19:12,240 Speaker 1: point game. He had sixty one and it took double 1699 01:19:12,320 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 1: overtime in a lost to Minnesota. But here's what's crazy too. 1700 01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:21,760 Speaker 1: He's the first player in Heat history to attempt forty 1701 01:19:21,760 --> 01:19:25,559 Speaker 1: field goals in a game. And he is also the 1702 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:28,479 Speaker 1: first player in NBA history now to make twenty five 1703 01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,799 Speaker 1: free throws and five to three pointers in a game. 1704 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:34,000 Speaker 1: He was twenty and forty three from the field. As 1705 01:19:34,040 --> 01:19:37,120 Speaker 1: I said, he's the first player Kevin in NBA history 1706 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:40,400 Speaker 1: to score at least seventy while making less than fifty 1707 01:19:40,439 --> 01:19:44,960 Speaker 1: percent of his field goals insane. He was less than 1708 01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:47,479 Speaker 1: thirty three percent from three point range and he's still 1709 01:19:47,520 --> 01:19:48,360 Speaker 1: scored eighty three. 1710 01:19:48,800 --> 01:19:50,679 Speaker 6: By the way, if you're just waking up this morning, 1711 01:19:51,479 --> 01:19:54,840 Speaker 6: the weather outside looks eerie, to say the least. Just 1712 01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:58,080 Speaker 6: check the radar. Some pretty serious storms coming into the 1713 01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:03,000 Speaker 6: ind area. I think the north side getting hammered already. 1714 01:20:03,080 --> 01:20:05,280 Speaker 6: So just a little fyi for the morning commute here. 1715 01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:08,360 Speaker 6: We don't have a lot of mourning storms tornado watches 1716 01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:10,479 Speaker 6: early on our show. 1717 01:20:10,680 --> 01:20:13,479 Speaker 3: So this is the money running down. This the money 1718 01:20:13,520 --> 01:20:15,799 Speaker 3: running raining down on Alec Pearson, Daniel Jones. 1719 01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:20,680 Speaker 6: Would you what would be your overall thoughts, James, I'll 1720 01:20:20,680 --> 01:20:26,120 Speaker 6: eave it very open ended. On Trey Hendrickson Jordan the colts. 1721 01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:29,920 Speaker 3: Oh, I like it, and I'm gonna say I like 1722 01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:34,519 Speaker 3: it because he's a proving commodity, and I get that 1723 01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:37,080 Speaker 3: he might be very expensive, and he's coming off hip 1724 01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:39,240 Speaker 3: surgery and there are question marks for that. I certainly 1725 01:20:39,240 --> 01:20:41,479 Speaker 3: wouldn't want to pay him too much now coming off 1726 01:20:41,479 --> 01:20:45,439 Speaker 3: of an injury like that. But I think when you're 1727 01:20:45,439 --> 01:20:49,360 Speaker 3: looking at how to add some juice to your pass rush, 1728 01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 3: and also to try to just be for real about contending. 1729 01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:56,240 Speaker 4: You go and get guys like that. Now, if it. 1730 01:20:56,280 --> 01:20:58,760 Speaker 3: Backfires and it doesn't work, at least you went for it. 1731 01:20:58,760 --> 01:21:01,559 Speaker 3: That's kind of been my mind and honestly that's been 1732 01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 3: the Colts mindset ever since the Sas Gardner's trade. 1733 01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:06,519 Speaker 4: They just went for it. Now we can look back 1734 01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:07,880 Speaker 4: on that said it wasn't too wise. 1735 01:21:08,040 --> 01:21:10,559 Speaker 3: But I think at this point you're so far into 1736 01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:14,160 Speaker 3: trying to build a continuer, a contender. By retaining Alec Pierce, 1737 01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:17,800 Speaker 3: by retaining Daniel Jones, you're saying you believe that your 1738 01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:20,040 Speaker 3: eight and two star last year wasn't a mirage. 1739 01:21:20,320 --> 01:21:21,360 Speaker 4: Then how do you build on that. 1740 01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:24,320 Speaker 3: You go and find a guy who, when he's healthy, 1741 01:21:24,760 --> 01:21:26,559 Speaker 3: his last two years that he was fully healthy, gave 1742 01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:28,160 Speaker 3: you seventeen and a half sacks in each season. 1743 01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:31,720 Speaker 4: So if he's let's. 1744 01:21:31,479 --> 01:21:35,320 Speaker 3: Say seventy percent of that player, he's still better than 1745 01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:37,360 Speaker 3: whatever you had last year. And quid he paid Samson 1746 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:40,599 Speaker 3: newcom and Taekwon Lewis, in my opinion, put him opposite 1747 01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:42,479 Speaker 3: of Lyle to lite to let him rock out and 1748 01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:45,000 Speaker 3: hopefully even if again, if he's seventy percent of what 1749 01:21:45,080 --> 01:21:45,479 Speaker 3: he was. 1750 01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:49,160 Speaker 4: Does that help your defense? And really does that aid? 1751 01:21:49,240 --> 01:21:51,120 Speaker 3: You're a secondary that you've invested so much money in 1752 01:21:51,439 --> 01:21:54,000 Speaker 3: as well, So I like it. There's a lot of 1753 01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:57,120 Speaker 3: familiarity there when it comes to coaching, and we'll see 1754 01:21:57,120 --> 01:21:59,439 Speaker 3: if the Colts can get in on the sweepstakes when 1755 01:21:59,439 --> 01:21:59,880 Speaker 3: it comes to. 1756 01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:03,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, poor young parent analogy, but it is a you 1757 01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:07,000 Speaker 6: better try your vegetables if you want to treat and 1758 01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:11,040 Speaker 6: I look at it as okay, you have to try 1759 01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:15,040 Speaker 6: to solve the position that has been your biggest I'd 1760 01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:17,400 Speaker 6: argue the biggest nemesis non quarterback for Ballard. 1761 01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:21,559 Speaker 4: I don't know is Max eating his vegetables vegetables? 1762 01:22:21,600 --> 01:22:24,240 Speaker 7: No, maybe a carrot, And I think it's just because. 1763 01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:25,200 Speaker 4: It I was like Nelly, you don't really have a 1764 01:22:25,240 --> 01:22:26,000 Speaker 4: choice yet, but. 1765 01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:28,680 Speaker 6: The crunches the carrot sounds like a dinosaur. 1766 01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:30,840 Speaker 2: Dad's gonna need to eat some vegetables after all the 1767 01:22:30,920 --> 01:22:32,120 Speaker 2: fan he's about to be housing. 1768 01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:36,439 Speaker 1: You strike me as a big vegetable guy, not a. 1769 01:22:36,479 --> 01:22:40,320 Speaker 6: Huge veggie individual, if I must say so. But yeah, James, 1770 01:22:40,320 --> 01:22:42,960 Speaker 6: I I don't know if like the cults are getting 1771 01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:44,240 Speaker 6: twenty twenty three tre Hendrickson. 1772 01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:47,679 Speaker 4: You know, like let me just say. That's what I'm saying. 1773 01:22:47,720 --> 01:22:50,680 Speaker 3: Even if it's let's say he gives them ten sacks. 1774 01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:52,840 Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, you might as well have a parade. 1775 01:22:52,880 --> 01:22:55,200 Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying, right, And last year he. 1776 01:22:55,200 --> 01:22:57,000 Speaker 6: Was on pace for that, by the way, for sacks 1777 01:22:57,040 --> 01:22:58,679 Speaker 6: and seven games. And then you have the hip surgery 1778 01:22:58,920 --> 01:23:01,080 Speaker 6: and again that'll be a the big question wherever he 1779 01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:04,639 Speaker 6: ends up. But I just I am such, get the 1780 01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:06,320 Speaker 6: bat off your shoulders. 1781 01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:10,280 Speaker 7: Try try take a swing. If you stand there and 1782 01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:10,599 Speaker 7: it's a. 1783 01:23:10,520 --> 01:23:13,560 Speaker 6: Backwards k you'll be kicking yourself all the way to 1784 01:23:13,600 --> 01:23:16,720 Speaker 6: the dugout. At least try to get the bat off 1785 01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:19,559 Speaker 6: your shoulders. And it's been you know, again, I can't 1786 01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:21,920 Speaker 6: reiterate this enough. If you look at the teams on 1787 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:27,559 Speaker 6: the current longest playoff drout in the NFL Jets, Falcons, Colts, 1788 01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:33,280 Speaker 6: they have had massive issues in finding a top flight 1789 01:23:33,720 --> 01:23:36,720 Speaker 6: edge rusher, top flight pass rusher. You know, there's been 1790 01:23:36,760 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 6: one in the Ballard era. I mean we're nine years in. 1791 01:23:39,680 --> 01:23:42,600 Speaker 6: Justin Houston is the one guy, and he was what 1792 01:23:43,080 --> 01:23:47,400 Speaker 6: a more than proven commodity elsewhere before coming here, which again, 1793 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:49,880 Speaker 6: at this point, you'll take anything. Clearly the draft hasn't worked. 1794 01:23:49,880 --> 01:23:52,960 Speaker 6: You've swung and missed routinely on top three round picks there. 1795 01:23:53,040 --> 01:23:56,000 Speaker 6: So you know the Hendrickson one is by no means 1796 01:23:56,000 --> 01:23:59,080 Speaker 6: a slam dunk guarantee.

I was watching the Boston 1820 01:25:09,160 --> 01:25:12,040 Speaker 1: Celtics and the San Antonio Spurs for a while last night, James, 1821 01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:15,040 Speaker 1: And first of all, Victor Wimnyama is amazing. Thirty nine 1822 01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:18,760 Speaker 1: and eleven, and they beat the Celtics last night. But 1823 01:25:20,880 --> 01:25:24,120 Speaker 1: the Spurs they're gonna be loaded again for another generation here. Man. 1824 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:26,559 Speaker 1: They just keep they just keep finding guys, whether it's 1825 01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:30,040 Speaker 1: David Robinson or Tim Duncan and now women Yama. He's 1826 01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:32,400 Speaker 1: just amazing to watch it. His size, the things that 1827 01:25:32,439 --> 01:25:34,160 Speaker 1: he does, the way that he plays. I know we've 1828 01:25:34,160 --> 01:25:36,360 Speaker 1: said it before, but every time you watch it, it 1829 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:37,719 Speaker 1: smacks you in the forehead again. 1830 01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:38,719 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1831 01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:41,479 Speaker 3: No, he's a big time player. And the Pacers are 1832 01:25:41,520 --> 01:25:44,240 Speaker 3: hoping to get someone I can't say of that ilk 1833 01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 3: because he's one of one, but hoping to get someone 1834 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:50,360 Speaker 3: great in the upcoming NBA draft and starts with the 1835 01:25:50,400 --> 01:25:51,040 Speaker 3: draft lottery. 1836 01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:53,640 Speaker 1: All right, speaking of lottery, you guys ready for today's 1837 01:25:53,680 --> 01:25:57,080 Speaker 1: simulation and the draft lottery on tankathon dot com. 1838 01:25:57,520 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 6: Let's do it. 1839 01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:04,080 Speaker 1: Let's go spinning the right now, and ooh, Pacers are 1840 01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:12,520 Speaker 1: fifth this time. Not we were looking at in descending order, James. 1841 01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:16,120 Speaker 1: In this particular spin, the Utah Jazz have the fourth 1842 01:26:16,160 --> 01:26:20,559 Speaker 1: overall pick, the Dallas Mavericks the third overall pick, Golden 1843 01:26:20,720 --> 01:26:25,599 Speaker 1: State the second overall pick. They normally would be way 1844 01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:28,519 Speaker 1: down there with their record right now almost five hundred. 1845 01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:31,360 Speaker 1: But guess who the number one pick is this morning, 1846 01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:36,639 Speaker 1: of all mornings in the simulated tankathon take a guess, James, 1847 01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:38,680 Speaker 1: your favorite team in the NBA. 1848 01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:40,759 Speaker 4: All the Wizards, Washington Wisleys. 1849 01:26:41,240 --> 01:26:44,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they're disgrace the basketball quite frankly. 1850 01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:48,400 Speaker 1: By the way. Losing streaks for those vying for that 1851 01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:51,800 Speaker 1: that lottery position right now, Pacers have the longest one 1852 01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:54,719 Speaker 1: going at ten straight. Then the Wizards at nine straight. 1853 01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:57,639 Speaker 1: Gave up eighty three to Bam out of BAIO last night. 1854 01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:03,080 Speaker 1: After that game losing streak for the Mavericks, a five 1855 01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:05,639 Speaker 1: game losing streak for Memphis, and a three game losing 1856 01:27:05,680 --> 01:27:09,320 Speaker 1: streak for Golden State. Teams are in full mode. 1857 01:27:10,560 --> 01:27:12,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm not surprised that the worst teams 1858 01:27:12,880 --> 01:27:14,599 Speaker 3: in the league are losing currently. 1859 01:27:14,800 --> 01:27:16,719 Speaker 4: I do want to update the listeners. 1860 01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:18,640 Speaker 3: I had the same question myself last time when I 1861 01:27:18,640 --> 01:27:22,519 Speaker 3: saw the Max Crosby news. You know, with the trade 1862 01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:25,519 Speaker 3: being rescinded, his huge cap hit is back on the 1863 01:27:25,520 --> 01:27:27,760 Speaker 3: books for the Raiders, who had a ton of cast 1864 01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:31,040 Speaker 3: face this offseason. And this, according to Albert Breer from 1865 01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:34,479 Speaker 3: Sports Illustrated, is saying that the Colts will not to 1866 01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:37,760 Speaker 3: another coat. The Raiders will honor all of the free 1867 01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:39,000 Speaker 3: agent agreements that they made. 1868 01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:41,080 Speaker 4: To remind folks of how it kind of works. 1869 01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:43,200 Speaker 3: You can come to an agreement with the team, but 1870 01:27:43,240 --> 01:27:45,800 Speaker 3: nothing is official to you put pen to paper later 1871 01:27:45,920 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 3: today when the new league year officially begins. 1872 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:49,559 Speaker 4: Why is that of note? 1873 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:53,479 Speaker 3: It's because, in my opinion, former Colts defensive Enquidy Pay 1874 01:27:53,560 --> 01:27:56,519 Speaker 3: agreed to a three year I believe forty eight million 1875 01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:59,080 Speaker 3: dollar contract with the Raiders, and for a second there 1876 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:02,400 Speaker 3: I seriously thought, will he still get that? Because A 1877 01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:06,320 Speaker 3: your salary cap situation has just changed drastically with Max 1878 01:28:06,360 --> 01:28:09,240 Speaker 3: Crosby coming back, and B you play the same position 1879 01:28:09,320 --> 01:28:12,519 Speaker 3: as him, So do the Raders to try to offload 1880 01:28:12,560 --> 01:28:14,720 Speaker 3: Max Crosby. Will wait and see, but it sounds like 1881 01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:17,080 Speaker 3: Quitty pay will indeed get his pay day. 1882 01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:19,759 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's kind of my question for today, James, Yesterday 1883 01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:23,599 Speaker 6: was a pretty quiet day in the edge rushing market. 1884 01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:26,320 Speaker 7: Day one is very active. Yes, yesterday was pretty quiet. 1885 01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:29,360 Speaker 6: Then we have this Crosby domino, which is obviously massive, 1886 01:28:30,200 --> 01:28:33,600 Speaker 6: and now what's the trickle down effect off of that. 1887 01:28:34,200 --> 01:28:38,120 Speaker 6: I just saw a report where Kalavon Chason, who had 1888 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:40,200 Speaker 6: seven and a half sacks with the Patriots last year, 1889 01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:42,640 Speaker 6: he is joining the commander, so he's kind of in 1890 01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:47,160 Speaker 6: like that second tier behind Hendrickson. And that's where I 1891 01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:49,439 Speaker 6: asked the question again, where do the Colts fit into 1892 01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:53,720 Speaker 6: all of this? Are they one of the top, if 1893 01:28:53,760 --> 01:28:56,720 Speaker 6: not the eventual landing spot for Trey Hendrickson. We saw 1894 01:28:56,760 --> 01:28:59,400 Speaker 6: the report a little bit earlier from Dana Russini. James, 1895 01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:01,719 Speaker 6: your colleague goes over at the Athletic with the ravens 1896 01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:03,839 Speaker 6: now out on Max Crosby. 1897 01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:06,920 Speaker 7: They have entered the fray with Trey Hendrickson. 1898 01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:09,599 Speaker 6: Because if you look at where we are right now 1899 01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:13,040 Speaker 6: from a defensive end ed Russian standpoint, it's really Trey 1900 01:29:13,080 --> 01:29:16,960 Speaker 6: Hendrickson and then a lot of just kind of dudes 1901 01:29:17,920 --> 01:29:21,639 Speaker 6: and not dudes in all caps, just guys, which again, 1902 01:29:21,680 --> 01:29:23,479 Speaker 6: the Colts have had a lot of those guys frankly 1903 01:29:23,560 --> 01:29:25,080 Speaker 6: rush the past, or too many of them, I would 1904 01:29:25,160 --> 01:29:28,479 Speaker 6: argue over the last you know, five to ten years, 1905 01:29:28,920 --> 01:29:30,880 Speaker 6: and so that becomes a question of the day for me. 1906 01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:32,840 Speaker 6: I fully expect, you know, the Daniel Jones thing to 1907 01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:35,280 Speaker 6: get done. Of course, multi year deal, etcetera, etcetera. That 1908 01:29:35,360 --> 01:29:37,080 Speaker 6: to me, he's not too much of a worry. Sure, 1909 01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:40,240 Speaker 6: I'm curious about the numbers, but more of what happens 1910 01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:43,880 Speaker 6: at your biggest need, particularly defensive end. And how does 1911 01:29:43,880 --> 01:29:48,160 Speaker 6: this Max Crosby situation impact Trey Hendrickson and the Colts. 1912 01:29:48,400 --> 01:29:50,240 Speaker 1: Here's the crazy part is, I'm looking up the Raiders 1913 01:29:50,320 --> 01:29:53,200 Speaker 1: right now. Even with Max Crosby back on their books, 1914 01:29:54,439 --> 01:29:57,960 Speaker 1: they still have fifty almost fifty one million dollars available 1915 01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:01,960 Speaker 1: in cap spacec Their fifth highest paid player is Quitty 1916 01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:05,599 Speaker 1: Pay at over nine just a little over nine million dollars. Yeah. 1917 01:30:05,680 --> 01:30:07,519 Speaker 6: Life when you're not good and you have a rookie 1918 01:30:07,560 --> 01:30:10,760 Speaker 6: contract quarterback and Rock Bower's on a rookie deal and 1919 01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:15,160 Speaker 6: Ashton Gents's on a rookie deal. So yeah, that's that's 1920 01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:18,599 Speaker 6: how finances typically work in the NFL, all. 1921 01:30:18,600 --> 01:30:20,120 Speaker 1: Right, so we'll keep an eye on that. We'll talk 1922 01:30:20,160 --> 01:30:22,360 Speaker 1: more about the cult specifically, and the latest on the 1923 01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:25,599 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones negotiations now that they have Alec Pierce all 1924 01:30:25,680 --> 01:30:28,160 Speaker 1: locked up, some of the other things happening today in 1925 01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:31,559 Speaker 1: free agency. Four o'clock this afternoon is when you have 1926 01:30:31,640 --> 01:30:34,559 Speaker 1: to be salary cap compliant, and we'll follow all of 1927 01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:36,240 Speaker 1: it all day long right here at ninety three five 1928 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:38,840 Speaker 1: and one a seven five the Fan. Tucker Barnhart coming 1929 01:30:38,880 --> 01:30:40,840 Speaker 1: up at about fifteen minutes. He's gonna talk to us 1930 01:30:40,840 --> 01:30:43,960 Speaker 1: about the World Baseball Classic, the start of another baseball season, 1931 01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:45,719 Speaker 1: and it's just fun to hang out with Tucker Barnhart, 1932 01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:46,599 Speaker 1: don't you agree? 1933 01:30:46,760 --> 01:30:49,559 Speaker 6: I would agree, y dude. We got a P one listener, 1934 01:30:49,600 --> 01:30:51,800 Speaker 6: and I's always got some great insight. I think he's 1935 01:30:51,800 --> 01:30:53,439 Speaker 6: locked into this Colt situation as well. 1936 01:30:53,560 --> 01:30:55,120 Speaker 1: I think he's locked into a lot of things. He's 1937 01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:57,960 Speaker 1: a very bright young man. So coming up at a moment. 1938 01:30:58,040 --> 01:31:00,680 Speaker 1: We will continue at ninety three five one on the 1939 01:31:00,680 --> 01:31:02,519 Speaker 1: Morning Show here on Wednesday morning. 1940 01:31:03,960 --> 01:31:12,439 Speaker 10: Me bye, you were listening to about Fan Morning Show 1941 01:31:12,680 --> 01:31:14,720 Speaker 10: on Sports Radio nuety sweet. 1942 01:31:14,479 --> 01:31:16,160 Speaker 1: Five and one oh seven five. 1943 01:31:18,160 --> 01:31:21,519 Speaker 10: Breaking news from ninety three five and one oh seven 1944 01:31:21,600 --> 01:31:21,920 Speaker 10: to five. 1945 01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:27,080 Speaker 1: The fan can't even get through a commercial break without 1946 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:30,680 Speaker 1: something happening that does not go in the colts favor.

Last night when I saw 1963 01:32:21,200 --> 01:32:24,479 Speaker 6: the Max Crosby News, I sat there as I was 1964 01:32:24,520 --> 01:32:26,360 Speaker 6: trying to lay out some clothes for tomorrow and said, 1965 01:32:26,840 --> 01:32:29,439 Speaker 6: all right, uh Thises, this is me and the Ravens 1966 01:32:29,640 --> 01:32:32,760 Speaker 6: are in on Trey Hendrickson and lo and behold here 1967 01:32:32,800 --> 01:32:34,320 Speaker 6: they are. How about the Ravens. They don't have to 1968 01:32:34,320 --> 01:32:37,040 Speaker 6: give up two first round picks. Obviously we'll debate, you know, 1969 01:32:37,040 --> 01:32:40,080 Speaker 6: how effective Hendrickson is coming off that versus Max Crosby. 1970 01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:42,360 Speaker 3: But I was gonna say, should we count it as 1971 01:32:42,400 --> 01:32:43,960 Speaker 3: official until he passes a physical? 1972 01:32:45,240 --> 01:32:47,120 Speaker 1: I think they probably know at this point in time 1973 01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:49,639 Speaker 1: there's an issue, right, So I'm just. 1974 01:32:49,560 --> 01:32:51,400 Speaker 6: Saying, you know, again, this is kind off the top 1975 01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:55,320 Speaker 6: of my head, but who's left James, Joey Bosa, Bradley Chubb. 1976 01:32:56,560 --> 01:32:59,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Bradley Chubb is probably the biggest name 1977 01:32:59,320 --> 01:33:01,720 Speaker 3: left when it comes to, you know, bang for your 1978 01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:05,360 Speaker 3: buck production from a defensive end, and then everything else 1979 01:33:05,439 --> 01:33:08,000 Speaker 3: is just old guy so Son Reddick and we're perhaps 1980 01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:09,519 Speaker 3: some young, unproven dudes. 1981 01:33:09,560 --> 01:33:12,120 Speaker 6: But yeah, aj and Panessa, I know, was a name 1982 01:33:12,160 --> 01:33:14,000 Speaker 6: that former first round pick people through out there. 1983 01:33:14,120 --> 01:33:16,479 Speaker 4: So boy, it. 1984 01:33:16,960 --> 01:33:19,000 Speaker 6: Looks like the pool at edge rushing has dried up, 1985 01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:21,920 Speaker 6: and you know that will be kind of the biggest 1986 01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:25,080 Speaker 6: question now. I think for the Colts moving forward, it's 1987 01:33:25,640 --> 01:33:28,440 Speaker 6: you know the ability to go out there and inquire 1988 01:33:28,680 --> 01:33:32,960 Speaker 6: a top flight pass rusher. There were several of them 1989 01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:35,400 Speaker 6: that I think were free agents this year. And whether 1990 01:33:35,439 --> 01:33:37,200 Speaker 6: you want to look at Jalen Phillips and Carolina, you 1991 01:33:37,280 --> 01:33:39,680 Speaker 6: want to look at Adafa Oway, now at the Commanders, 1992 01:33:39,680 --> 01:33:41,559 Speaker 6: you want to look at Trey Hendrickson, at the Ravens. 1993 01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:44,639 Speaker 6: You know, again, you could pick holes in probably all 1994 01:33:44,680 --> 01:33:48,639 Speaker 6: of them, but they have had some level of production. Really, 1995 01:33:48,640 --> 01:33:52,839 Speaker 6: the Colts haven't had at edge rusher. And now the Colts, 1996 01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:56,680 Speaker 6: I don't see an obvious pivot to where all of 1997 01:33:56,720 --> 01:33:58,920 Speaker 6: a sudden you sit there and say that dude has 1998 01:33:58,920 --> 01:34:00,559 Speaker 6: been a big time edge rusher the NFL. 1999 01:34:00,960 --> 01:34:02,920 Speaker 1: Yeah here, and that is of major concern for me. 2000 01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:05,640 Speaker 1: You mentioned a few of the names, but here's the 2001 01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:09,080 Speaker 1: list of available free agents right now. Asan Redick, who's 2002 01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:13,000 Speaker 1: gonna be He's thirty one, Joey Bosa will be thirty one, 2003 01:34:13,479 --> 01:34:16,680 Speaker 1: Deniko Atre is gonna be thirty six, Leonard Floyd is 2004 01:34:16,720 --> 01:34:20,439 Speaker 1: gonna be thirty four. Year Gross Mottos is twenty eight, 2005 01:34:20,479 --> 01:34:25,719 Speaker 1: Samson Ebucom is thirty one, gonna be thirty one, Michael 2006 01:34:25,840 --> 01:34:29,760 Speaker 1: Danna is twenty eight, Allow Nichols twenty nine, DJ one 2007 01:34:29,880 --> 01:34:32,439 Speaker 1: them didn't work out very well with Carolina gonna be 2008 01:34:32,479 --> 01:34:34,960 Speaker 1: twenty eight. Von Miller is still out there, James at 2009 01:34:34,960 --> 01:34:35,599 Speaker 1: thirty seven. 2010 01:34:36,400 --> 01:34:37,439 Speaker 4: So when we. 2011 01:34:37,360 --> 01:34:42,320 Speaker 3: Look at what's left when it comes to signing a 2012 01:34:42,360 --> 01:34:45,519 Speaker 3: free agent, And honestly, Kevin, when I hear that it's 2013 01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:47,479 Speaker 3: a four year deal for tre Hendrickson, I'm thinking to 2014 01:34:47,520 --> 01:34:50,599 Speaker 3: the Colts like, that's an absolute no. I would not 2015 01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:53,200 Speaker 3: want to have him on my books for four years. Now, again, 2016 01:34:53,880 --> 01:34:55,360 Speaker 3: when do you have an out in that contract? How 2017 01:34:55,439 --> 01:34:58,960 Speaker 3: much guaranteed money is spread out? But this just in 2018 01:34:59,040 --> 01:35:01,040 Speaker 3: from ethic Adam Shefter said that it's worth up to 2019 01:35:01,040 --> 01:35:02,439 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty million dollars. 2020 01:35:02,840 --> 01:35:05,040 Speaker 4: So quite the payday for Trey Hendrickson. 2021 01:35:05,080 --> 01:35:07,639 Speaker 3: But I can understand why the cults might have been like, hey, 2022 01:35:08,040 --> 01:35:09,760 Speaker 3: at some point, we got to be realistic with our 2023 01:35:09,800 --> 01:35:12,439 Speaker 3: price point, because I mean, if you do spend that 2024 01:35:12,520 --> 01:35:14,479 Speaker 3: kind of money on Trey Hendrickson, what else do you 2025 01:35:14,479 --> 01:35:14,960 Speaker 3: have left? 2026 01:35:15,160 --> 01:35:17,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that's fine. I can hear that, but it 2027 01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:23,040 Speaker 6: still doesn't solve the continued issue. And now, if the 2028 01:35:23,080 --> 01:35:25,439 Speaker 6: off season unfolds in the manner that it looks like 2029 01:35:25,439 --> 01:35:27,240 Speaker 6: it at rush and we'll see, let's just throw in 2030 01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:28,559 Speaker 6: whatever a cult sign. 2031 01:35:28,680 --> 01:35:29,679 Speaker 7: I don't know, Hassan Redick. 2032 01:35:29,720 --> 01:35:31,000 Speaker 6: If you want to throw in one of these names, 2033 01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:34,599 Speaker 6: you are banking on pretty much all of your edge 2034 01:35:34,680 --> 01:35:36,160 Speaker 6: rushing eggs into. 2035 01:35:36,000 --> 01:35:38,800 Speaker 7: Layoutu Latsu's third year jump. You have to have that. 2036 01:35:38,920 --> 01:35:41,360 Speaker 6: I agree with you, Yeah to I viewed the off 2037 01:35:41,400 --> 01:35:43,400 Speaker 6: season more of a you need to find a. 2038 01:35:43,320 --> 01:35:46,519 Speaker 7: Bona fide guy opposite Lotso yeah and so yes. 2039 01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:49,559 Speaker 6: I understand it's rich, it is rich, and the culture 2040 01:35:49,640 --> 01:35:53,320 Speaker 6: in a difficult cap situation right now, but that to 2041 01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:56,840 Speaker 6: me is just again you're continuing to kick the can 2042 01:35:56,920 --> 01:35:59,479 Speaker 6: down the road of a position that has on that 2043 01:35:59,520 --> 01:36:01,120 Speaker 6: side of the ball, I think as equal value to 2044 01:36:01,160 --> 01:36:03,240 Speaker 6: what quarterback can mean to a lot of teams from 2045 01:36:03,240 --> 01:36:05,400 Speaker 6: an offensive standpoint. And that's my biggest worry. 2046 01:36:05,439 --> 01:36:06,439 Speaker 4: Here's one I'll throw out to you. 2047 01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:08,760 Speaker 3: Do you think and we probably won't get like a 2048 01:36:08,920 --> 01:36:12,519 Speaker 3: clear ants on this publicly, but do you think the 2049 01:36:12,680 --> 01:36:15,519 Speaker 3: hold up in signing Daniel Jones to a long term 2050 01:36:15,560 --> 01:36:19,000 Speaker 3: deal may have hindered you from actually trying to pursue 2051 01:36:19,439 --> 01:36:22,640 Speaker 3: Trey Hendrickson, Like, for example, if he's sitting there at 2052 01:36:22,680 --> 01:36:24,760 Speaker 3: the table right now today and the Ravens are saying, 2053 01:36:24,800 --> 01:36:27,280 Speaker 3: we can pay you this amount of money right now, 2054 01:36:27,800 --> 01:36:29,960 Speaker 3: versus where the Cults are saying, wait, give us a second, 2055 01:36:30,200 --> 01:36:32,120 Speaker 3: We'll get Daniel handled, then we'll come back to you. 2056 01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:34,920 Speaker 3: That might not be the best strategy when it comes 2057 01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:37,080 Speaker 3: to trying to land the guy of his caliber. I'm 2058 01:36:37,080 --> 01:36:40,000 Speaker 3: not blaming the culture necessarily, but I think it speaks 2059 01:36:40,040 --> 01:36:42,320 Speaker 3: to some of the logistical steps that have to happen, 2060 01:36:42,840 --> 01:36:45,599 Speaker 3: and you're just not in a position to really go 2061 01:36:45,720 --> 01:36:48,160 Speaker 3: for it, at least financially because you don't know what 2062 01:36:48,160 --> 01:36:50,559 Speaker 3: your financials are quite frankly just yet. 2063 01:36:50,840 --> 01:36:53,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, it is a good question, and I think this 2064 01:36:53,200 --> 01:36:55,200 Speaker 6: kind of gets back in the order of operations debate 2065 01:36:55,240 --> 01:36:59,040 Speaker 6: we had had, or maybe of exactly what needs to happen. 2066 01:36:59,200 --> 01:37:00,840 Speaker 4: You'll excuse my dear an Sally. 2067 01:37:01,040 --> 01:37:03,920 Speaker 6: I think the Colts thought all along was they could 2068 01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:09,439 Speaker 6: and would create enough room to pursue him. And you know, 2069 01:37:09,439 --> 01:37:11,519 Speaker 6: I don't know is this a Hendrickson thing saying I'd 2070 01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:14,720 Speaker 6: rather be in Baltimore? Which again, would you rather be 2071 01:37:14,760 --> 01:37:18,519 Speaker 6: with Lamar Jackson, two time MVP right defensive mind to 2072 01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:21,080 Speaker 6: head coach? You know, I again, I understand the ana 2073 01:37:21,120 --> 01:37:25,400 Speaker 6: Arumo connection, the Marion Hobby connection, but still Hendrickson did 2074 01:37:25,439 --> 01:37:27,519 Speaker 6: strike me as someone, given the hold out last year, 2075 01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:29,720 Speaker 6: that was probably chasing top top dollars. I don't know 2076 01:37:29,800 --> 01:37:32,360 Speaker 6: if that obviously is one hundred percent the case here, 2077 01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:36,800 Speaker 6: but we'll see how the Colts now pivot here. You know, 2078 01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:39,120 Speaker 6: Jonathan Glenard, I know, is the name people have mentioned before. 2079 01:37:39,560 --> 01:37:41,599 Speaker 6: You know, that is a trade right with the vikings 2080 01:37:41,600 --> 01:37:43,800 Speaker 6: that would have to be done there. He didn't have 2081 01:37:43,840 --> 01:37:47,719 Speaker 6: a great, great season last year, so it just seems 2082 01:37:47,800 --> 01:37:53,040 Speaker 6: to be all eggs in the law to basket with 2083 01:37:53,120 --> 01:37:54,880 Speaker 6: a group that's probably just going to be a bunch 2084 01:37:54,880 --> 01:37:56,360 Speaker 6: of guys that you know, you just kind of shrug 2085 01:37:56,360 --> 01:38:00,360 Speaker 6: your shoulders that they're fine pass rushers. But that's kind 2086 01:38:00,360 --> 01:38:02,120 Speaker 6: of been the annual story with. 2087 01:38:02,040 --> 01:38:04,559 Speaker 2: They're not giving any offensive coordinators like we need to 2088 01:38:04,560 --> 01:38:06,679 Speaker 2: block this guy, we need to scheme against this guy. 2089 01:38:07,320 --> 01:38:09,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's worth pointing out to Mark, like, 2090 01:38:10,920 --> 01:38:14,520 Speaker 6: you know, Buckner continues to get older, is the constant 2091 01:38:14,520 --> 01:38:16,040 Speaker 6: double team that goes his way? 2092 01:38:16,479 --> 01:38:19,520 Speaker 7: Is that less needed from opposing offenses? 2093 01:38:19,760 --> 01:38:20,040 Speaker 1: Dude? 2094 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:22,400 Speaker 6: Does some of that shift towards a law too now, 2095 01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:26,160 Speaker 6: you know? And does that impact his effectiveness? As he 2096 01:38:26,200 --> 01:38:30,000 Speaker 6: tries to ascend as a third year rusher. So, man, 2097 01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:33,840 Speaker 6: the Max Crosby thing, it was Yeah, I mean my 2098 01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:35,800 Speaker 6: first thought last night was, oh boy, what does this 2099 01:38:35,840 --> 01:38:36,599 Speaker 6: mean for the Ravens? 2100 01:38:36,640 --> 01:38:38,720 Speaker 7: What does this mean for Trey Hendrickson? And lo and 2101 01:38:38,760 --> 01:38:39,479 Speaker 7: behold here you go. 2102 01:38:39,680 --> 01:38:41,680 Speaker 1: I didn't take the Ravens long to move on to 2103 01:38:41,680 --> 01:38:43,400 Speaker 1: the next choice, though, did it They They got it 2104 01:38:43,439 --> 01:38:45,599 Speaker 1: done in a hurry. Can I interest you guys at all, 2105 01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:48,880 Speaker 1: just for the sake of discussion in a Jadavian clowney 2106 01:38:48,960 --> 01:38:50,639 Speaker 1: for less than six million dollars a year? 2107 01:38:53,040 --> 01:38:56,439 Speaker 4: Not really for me, No, I mean, big name, but 2108 01:38:57,320 --> 01:38:58,400 Speaker 4: yay what he used to be. 2109 01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:01,479 Speaker 1: And he's thirty three. I mean we talked about Joey 2110 01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:04,800 Speaker 1: Bosat at thirty one, but that's going to be almost 2111 01:39:04,840 --> 01:39:07,080 Speaker 1: fourteen million dollars at least what the market value is 2112 01:39:07,520 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 1: listed right now. 2113 01:39:08,760 --> 01:39:10,640 Speaker 6: It's the same song and dance, all these names that 2114 01:39:10,720 --> 01:39:15,280 Speaker 6: Jeff Keepson mentioning age production, all of it. It's just 2115 01:39:15,640 --> 01:39:18,479 Speaker 6: they're just do I've shrugged my shoulders nine times in 2116 01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:20,559 Speaker 6: the last thirty seconds talking about them all. Yeah, Like 2117 01:39:20,640 --> 01:39:24,719 Speaker 6: that's my that's my concern. The Colts have had fine 2118 01:39:25,680 --> 01:39:29,240 Speaker 6: pass rushers they've had guys. Oh yeah, Quity Pay he 2119 01:39:29,280 --> 01:39:31,040 Speaker 6: had seven sacks. It's like, well, if you really look 2120 01:39:31,080 --> 01:39:34,040 Speaker 6: at the numbers, didn't do much. And again I can't. 2121 01:39:34,200 --> 01:39:36,040 Speaker 6: I mean, I'll try to nerd out over some numbers 2122 01:39:36,080 --> 01:39:38,880 Speaker 6: if you'd like here, but I cannot reiterate this enough. 2123 01:39:38,960 --> 01:39:43,240 Speaker 6: If you look at the Falcons, the Jets, the Colts, 2124 01:39:43,439 --> 01:39:47,439 Speaker 6: the teams with the longest current playoff drought in the NFL, 2125 01:39:48,080 --> 01:39:54,120 Speaker 6: the lack of individual pass rushers is a definite correlation. Yeah, 2126 01:39:54,160 --> 01:39:57,599 Speaker 6: definite correlation. Two times since Robert Mathis. Robert Mathis led 2127 01:39:57,600 --> 01:40:00,360 Speaker 6: the NFL in sacks in twenty thirteen. That's why twelve 2128 01:40:00,400 --> 01:40:03,719 Speaker 6: years ago. Two times since then you've had a double 2129 01:40:03,760 --> 01:40:05,920 Speaker 6: digit sack guy, and like a double digit sack guy 2130 01:40:06,080 --> 01:40:08,719 Speaker 6: is not. Well, someone look up how many double digit 2131 01:40:08,720 --> 01:40:10,960 Speaker 6: sack guys there were in the NFL last year. I mean, 2132 01:40:11,160 --> 01:40:14,880 Speaker 6: it's not like a foreign It's not bam outibio score 2133 01:40:14,880 --> 01:40:17,280 Speaker 6: in eighty three or do you have twenty people probably 2134 01:40:17,320 --> 01:40:20,240 Speaker 6: get double digit sacks every year in the NFL something 2135 01:40:20,280 --> 01:40:22,800 Speaker 6: like that. I mean, those numbers are only rising with 2136 01:40:22,920 --> 01:40:26,080 Speaker 6: how much more teams passed in the NFL. And it's 2137 01:40:26,160 --> 01:40:28,439 Speaker 6: justin Houston in twenty nineteen, and it's Eric Walden in 2138 01:40:28,479 --> 01:40:29,080 Speaker 6: twenty sixteen. 2139 01:40:29,320 --> 01:40:33,320 Speaker 1: Here, here we go. Number of sacks. Last year, there 2140 01:40:33,320 --> 01:40:36,640 Speaker 1: were fifteen guys in the league that had ten or 2141 01:40:36,640 --> 01:40:37,400 Speaker 1: more sacks. 2142 01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:41,639 Speaker 6: So again, we're talking about a fifteen probably some years 2143 01:40:41,640 --> 01:40:43,720 Speaker 6: made its a little bit more than that. That type 2144 01:40:43,720 --> 01:40:46,040 Speaker 6: of number. It's not like I'm talking about three dudes 2145 01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:49,240 Speaker 6: in the league. I'm not talking eighteen sacks twenty sacks. 2146 01:40:49,280 --> 01:40:52,240 Speaker 6: I'm talking Miles Garrett numbers. And that's you know who. 2147 01:40:52,320 --> 01:40:54,120 Speaker 6: Number fifteen was the continued question. 2148 01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:56,080 Speaker 1: Max Crosby was number fifteen. 2149 01:40:56,720 --> 01:40:56,880 Speaker 5: Ten. 2150 01:40:57,160 --> 01:41:00,160 Speaker 3: I'm looking at this, it looks like Chase Young haden 2151 01:41:00,280 --> 01:41:04,680 Speaker 3: sacks last year. Yeah, Montest sweat, Yeah, how about this? 2152 01:41:05,040 --> 01:41:08,439 Speaker 3: Al KaDee Mohammed the Colts he used to have. Yeah, 2153 01:41:08,479 --> 01:41:10,439 Speaker 3: he had eleven last year for the Detroit Would you 2154 01:41:10,479 --> 01:41:11,000 Speaker 3: go back to him? 2155 01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:11,799 Speaker 1: He's a free agent? 2156 01:41:13,640 --> 01:41:14,200 Speaker 4: Possibly? 2157 01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:19,000 Speaker 3: I mean at this point, yeah, the drop off from 2158 01:41:19,040 --> 01:41:21,680 Speaker 3: Trey Henderson the rest of the field is very significant. 2159 01:41:21,720 --> 01:41:23,280 Speaker 1: All right, Mark, let's still quick check down so we 2160 01:41:23,280 --> 01:41:25,360 Speaker 1: can get to Tucker Barnhardt coming up a few minutes here. 2161 01:41:26,600 --> 01:41:29,840 Speaker 10: The morning checkdown on Nutty Sweet five and one oh 2162 01:41:29,880 --> 01:41:31,200 Speaker 10: seven five The fan. 2163 01:41:31,760 --> 01:41:34,080 Speaker 1: As we've been talking about breaking news. Just a few 2164 01:41:34,080 --> 01:41:38,439 Speaker 1: moments ago, Max Crosby has signed a four year, one 2165 01:41:38,479 --> 01:41:41,519 Speaker 1: hundred and twelve million dollar Trey Hendrickson and Max Crosby, 2166 01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:44,920 Speaker 1: uh made it all possible. When that trade was rescinded, 2167 01:41:44,920 --> 01:41:47,200 Speaker 1: he goes back to the Raiders, and so the Ravens 2168 01:41:47,200 --> 01:41:49,439 Speaker 1: start looking for their next option. They found it in 2169 01:41:49,479 --> 01:41:52,840 Speaker 1: a hurry, James. With Trey Hendrickson, four years, one hundred 2170 01:41:52,840 --> 01:41:55,400 Speaker 1: and twelve million dollars could be up to worth one 2171 01:41:55,479 --> 01:41:57,840 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty by the time it's all said and done. 2172 01:41:57,840 --> 01:42:01,080 Speaker 1: Where does that leave the Colts with much? 2173 01:42:01,240 --> 01:42:02,920 Speaker 4: To keep it short and sweet? 2174 01:42:03,200 --> 01:42:05,800 Speaker 1: Oh man, all right, So that's what's happening in the 2175 01:42:05,800 --> 01:42:08,599 Speaker 1: world of National Football League. Pacers lost their tenth straight 2176 01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:11,880 Speaker 1: last night to Sacramento one fourteen to one oh nine. 2177 01:42:11,960 --> 01:42:15,760 Speaker 1: Aaron Neismith did score twenty nine points. Pacers now fifteen 2178 01:42:15,800 --> 01:42:18,639 Speaker 1: and fifty. They're the worst team in the NBA. They're 2179 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:20,600 Speaker 1: a half game better, if you want to say it 2180 01:42:20,640 --> 01:42:23,360 Speaker 1: that way, than the Sacramento Kings, who they beat last night. 2181 01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:26,439 Speaker 1: Kevin Bowen. The beat just goes on and they seem 2182 01:42:26,520 --> 01:42:29,080 Speaker 1: destined for one of those four worst spots and. 2183 01:42:29,560 --> 01:42:31,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, twenty point lead late in the third quarter last 2184 01:42:31,880 --> 01:42:33,519 Speaker 6: night and they still found a way to blow a 2185 01:42:33,560 --> 01:42:36,280 Speaker 6: blow of that. So a zero to four road trip, 2186 01:42:36,400 --> 01:42:39,560 Speaker 6: like you said, ten straight Pascal Siakam spring knee was 2187 01:42:39,600 --> 01:42:43,519 Speaker 6: what Rick Carlisle said pregame, So obviously his availability here 2188 01:42:43,600 --> 01:42:46,800 Speaker 6: moving forward will be in question. We'll see if Vitza 2189 01:42:46,880 --> 01:42:50,960 Speaker 6: Zubats gets on the floor at any point here anytime soon. Thursday, right, 2190 01:42:51,120 --> 01:42:53,080 Speaker 6: is it Phoenix? Maybe that's the next game for the. 2191 01:42:53,080 --> 01:42:56,400 Speaker 1: Pacers coming up this week they return home after that 2192 01:42:56,479 --> 01:42:59,320 Speaker 1: four game West Coast road trip. Notable last night in 2193 01:42:59,320 --> 01:43:02,320 Speaker 1: the NBA more than notable James Bam out of bio 2194 01:43:02,640 --> 01:43:05,559 Speaker 1: scores eighty three points on your favorite NBA team, the 2195 01:43:05,640 --> 01:43:08,839 Speaker 1: Washington Wizards, one fifty one twenty nine. The final score 2196 01:43:09,400 --> 01:43:12,200 Speaker 1: thirty six of forty three from the free throw line. 2197 01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:15,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, shout out to Bam. Hell of an NBA career 2198 01:43:16,080 --> 01:43:18,240 Speaker 3: so far. Hell of a basketball career so far. I 2199 01:43:18,240 --> 01:43:20,559 Speaker 3: believe he's a two time gold medalist as well. And 2200 01:43:20,600 --> 01:43:24,439 Speaker 3: he said after the game, it's Will me and Kobe 2201 01:43:24,880 --> 01:43:25,559 Speaker 3: quite the list. 2202 01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:27,000 Speaker 1: That is quite the list. 2203 01:43:27,160 --> 01:43:30,400 Speaker 2: Tell the league office to send their watch dogs to Washington. 2204 01:43:30,479 --> 01:43:33,599 Speaker 3: By the way, the pay're so seriously about Washington. I mean, 2205 01:43:33,680 --> 01:43:35,080 Speaker 3: I'm kind of joking, but I'm kind of not. I 2206 01:43:35,120 --> 01:43:37,120 Speaker 3: agree with you, Mark, I'm serious. They should be fine 2207 01:43:37,120 --> 01:43:38,519 Speaker 3: for tanking. They're awful. 2208 01:43:39,520 --> 01:43:42,040 Speaker 1: One other game that I watched last night pretty entertaining. 2209 01:43:42,040 --> 01:43:44,479 Speaker 1: The Spurs beat the Celtics one twenty five to one 2210 01:43:44,640 --> 01:43:50,240 Speaker 1: sixteen in a potential battle of who knows, maybe those 2211 01:43:50,280 --> 01:43:52,200 Speaker 1: two teams get to the finals. Before Saul said dout, 2212 01:43:52,200 --> 01:43:54,680 Speaker 1: Oklahoma City and other teams might have something to say 2213 01:43:54,680 --> 01:43:57,920 Speaker 1: about that. Victor wiman Yama had thirty nine points eleven rebounds. 2214 01:43:58,000 --> 01:44:00,759 Speaker 1: Jalen Brown got thrown out after argue doing a call. 2215 01:44:01,200 --> 01:44:03,200 Speaker 1: He was right in the argument, but he was wrong 2216 01:44:03,200 --> 01:44:04,600 Speaker 1: at the end of but he got two texs and 2217 01:44:04,640 --> 01:44:07,080 Speaker 1: got thrown out there. That's what's happening in the NBA. 2218 01:44:07,200 --> 01:44:11,040 Speaker 1: In the World Baseball Classic, Italy topples Team USA eight 2219 01:44:11,120 --> 01:44:14,880 Speaker 1: to six last night, and we the USA could be 2220 01:44:14,920 --> 01:44:19,680 Speaker 1: eliminated unless Italy defeats Mexico or if Mexico wins. We 2221 01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:21,880 Speaker 1: need to score a bunch of runs, Kevin. In a 2222 01:44:22,000 --> 01:44:25,600 Speaker 1: very weird convoluted tiebreaker. For a three team tiebreak, you 2223 01:44:25,640 --> 01:44:28,080 Speaker 1: need Mexico to score just a ton of runs that 2224 01:44:28,160 --> 01:44:31,160 Speaker 1: would knock Italy out. Yeah, what'd you say? Five runs 2225 01:44:31,240 --> 01:44:34,200 Speaker 1: or six have to score at least six. So if 2226 01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:36,240 Speaker 1: Mexico wins, you want them to score at least six runs. 2227 01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:40,240 Speaker 1: If Italy wins, you're okay. College basketball last night Horizon 2228 01:44:40,320 --> 01:44:43,320 Speaker 1: League Championships, we broadcast live from there. The other day 2229 01:44:43,479 --> 01:44:46,400 Speaker 1: it was Right State defeating Detroit sixty six to sixty three. 2230 01:44:46,520 --> 01:44:49,960 Speaker 1: They advanced at the Big Ten.

I mean, it's a bad answer, but 2258 01:45:58,560 --> 01:46:01,599 Speaker 12: it is really cool to watch. It brings my eyes 2259 01:46:01,640 --> 01:46:05,760 Speaker 12: to its TV every year that it is on. It's 2260 01:46:05,800 --> 01:46:08,800 Speaker 12: a nice get away from spring training baseball. Spring training 2261 01:46:08,840 --> 01:46:13,000 Speaker 12: baseball is awesome to watch, especially after when it's cold here, 2262 01:46:13,200 --> 01:46:16,559 Speaker 12: when the weather it stinks like today. Being able to 2263 01:46:16,720 --> 01:46:19,200 Speaker 12: fire up the TV and see teams in Arizona playing 2264 01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:22,400 Speaker 12: or in Florida playing is awesome. But it's not necessarily 2265 01:46:22,400 --> 01:46:26,240 Speaker 12: the most competitive games, right, So you're watching your favorite 2266 01:46:26,240 --> 01:46:28,080 Speaker 12: players or guys that you see on TV on a 2267 01:46:28,120 --> 01:46:30,639 Speaker 12: nightly basis for three or four innings at a time, 2268 01:46:30,720 --> 01:46:32,800 Speaker 12: and then guys that come in that you don't know 2269 01:46:32,840 --> 01:46:35,679 Speaker 12: about or that you've never heard of, which is awesome 2270 01:46:36,320 --> 01:46:38,760 Speaker 12: also a cool thing to see.

He 2288 01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:38,160 Speaker 12: was a guy that didn't wear sleeves under his vest jersey. 2289 01:47:38,680 --> 01:47:41,519 Speaker 12: Uh they didn't wear they didn't wear sleeves under theirs, 2290 01:47:41,720 --> 01:47:44,000 Speaker 12: again paying homage to him. And they were doing curls 2291 01:47:44,000 --> 01:47:46,680 Speaker 12: with the curl bar in the dugout prior. 2292 01:47:46,439 --> 01:47:46,960 Speaker 5: To a game. 2293 01:47:47,040 --> 01:47:49,120 Speaker 12: And uh so, I always think about that, and so 2294 01:47:49,160 --> 01:47:51,920 Speaker 12: he's always been jacked. We've always gave him hell about 2295 01:47:51,920 --> 01:47:54,479 Speaker 12: it because we all wanted to look like him, let's 2296 01:47:54,520 --> 01:47:57,760 Speaker 12: be honest. And and uh so, yeah, I would. It 2297 01:47:57,800 --> 01:48:00,880 Speaker 12: wouldn't shot me if he was a at any other 2298 01:48:00,920 --> 01:48:03,960 Speaker 12: sport that he would have tried to play, because he's 2299 01:48:03,960 --> 01:48:05,040 Speaker 12: a he's a freak athlete. 2300 01:48:05,120 --> 01:48:07,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's pretty obvious what the World Baseball 2301 01:48:07,080 --> 01:48:09,880 Speaker 6: Classic has drawn just from a fan interest standpoint. We 2302 01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:13,280 Speaker 6: just watched what happens, you know, from a hockey standpoint 2303 01:48:13,320 --> 01:48:17,680 Speaker 6: when NHL is get back into the Olympics. Obviously that 2304 01:48:17,920 --> 01:48:21,120 Speaker 6: was you know, a huge, huge story in the sports world. 2305 01:48:21,760 --> 01:48:25,040 Speaker 6: What are kind of your thoughts, if you know, Indeed, 2306 01:48:25,080 --> 01:48:28,320 Speaker 6: in twenty twenty eight, we interrupt the MLB season and 2307 01:48:28,680 --> 01:48:31,000 Speaker 6: you know, have MLB players in the Olympics. 2308 01:48:31,760 --> 01:48:34,639 Speaker 12: Man, you took the words right out of my mouth, 2309 01:48:34,720 --> 01:48:41,280 Speaker 12: because I think that the World Baseball Classic, it is awesome, 2310 01:48:41,360 --> 01:48:43,840 Speaker 12: and I think it is a highly competitive atmosphere and 2311 01:48:43,880 --> 01:48:44,719 Speaker 12: the games are great. 2312 01:48:45,120 --> 01:48:48,360 Speaker 5: I just wish that there was a way to put 2313 01:48:48,400 --> 01:48:49,000 Speaker 5: it in the. 2314 01:48:48,920 --> 01:48:52,400 Speaker 12: Middle of the year where you're getting k scooball for 2315 01:48:52,560 --> 01:48:55,320 Speaker 12: five six seven innings at a time, Paul Skins five 2316 01:48:55,439 --> 01:48:58,080 Speaker 12: six seven innings at a time, when guys are in 2317 01:48:58,240 --> 01:49:02,719 Speaker 12: mid season form from across the world, the teams from Japan, 2318 01:49:02,920 --> 01:49:06,240 Speaker 12: teams from the from the Dominican, the Italys of the world. 2319 01:49:06,360 --> 01:49:09,240 Speaker 12: Like just I just feel like it could just boost 2320 01:49:09,280 --> 01:49:13,000 Speaker 12: it even further, just with the quality of baseball. 2321 01:49:13,080 --> 01:49:14,320 Speaker 5: You have bullpen. 2322 01:49:14,080 --> 01:49:17,559 Speaker 12: Guys that are that are coming in to face certain 2323 01:49:17,640 --> 01:49:19,800 Speaker 12: pockets of a lineup just like they would in a 2324 01:49:19,840 --> 01:49:23,000 Speaker 12: regular season. So I do think that if you can't 2325 01:49:23,000 --> 01:49:25,960 Speaker 12: if in twenty twenty eight, if you do interrupt the 2326 01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:29,120 Speaker 12: season and you put and you put the Olympics right 2327 01:49:29,120 --> 01:49:31,519 Speaker 12: there in the middle, and you have the likes of 2328 01:49:31,560 --> 01:49:34,280 Speaker 12: Aaron Judge, of Bryce Harper's who are in mid season form, 2329 01:49:34,600 --> 01:49:38,400 Speaker 12: and you add them to a team that's going to 2330 01:49:38,439 --> 01:49:40,080 Speaker 12: play in the Olympics. I think it would make it 2331 01:49:40,120 --> 01:49:41,840 Speaker 12: even better. And so I wish there was a way 2332 01:49:42,280 --> 01:49:45,400 Speaker 12: in those non Olympic years, those in the World Baseball 2333 01:49:45,439 --> 01:49:47,519 Speaker 12: Classic years, where you could add it to the middle 2334 01:49:47,560 --> 01:49:50,479 Speaker 12: of the season, maybe make extend the All Star Break 2335 01:49:50,560 --> 01:49:52,400 Speaker 12: just by a little bit, because it is only like 2336 01:49:52,520 --> 01:49:56,000 Speaker 12: three days long in a season where I've always maintained 2337 01:49:56,040 --> 01:49:59,519 Speaker 12: the stance that it is entirely too long at the 2338 01:49:59,560 --> 01:50:02,000 Speaker 12: onset with one hundred and sixty two games, I feel 2339 01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:04,760 Speaker 12: like maybe cutting out a couple to extend the All 2340 01:50:04,760 --> 01:50:08,519 Speaker 12: Star Break. Therefore adding being able to add a World 2341 01:50:08,600 --> 01:50:11,479 Speaker 12: Baseball Classic into the middle of the year, I think 2342 01:50:11,520 --> 01:50:12,639 Speaker 12: it would make it even better. 2343 01:50:13,080 --> 01:50:14,639 Speaker 3: Tucker, how much do you think how do you touch 2344 01:50:14,680 --> 01:50:15,920 Speaker 3: on a little bit there, but how much do you 2345 01:50:16,000 --> 01:50:19,200 Speaker 3: think there is like this pressure on the players to 2346 01:50:19,320 --> 01:50:22,599 Speaker 3: form in the World Baseball Classic, but also to keep 2347 01:50:22,640 --> 01:50:26,360 Speaker 3: themselves somewhat ready for their regular season with their MLB team, 2348 01:50:26,439 --> 01:50:30,760 Speaker 3: Like is there some some pushing pushing take there or 2349 01:50:30,760 --> 01:50:32,800 Speaker 3: given pool, Like how do you view it as a 2350 01:50:32,800 --> 01:50:35,040 Speaker 3: competitor when you know, like in the back of your mind, Okay, 2351 01:50:35,040 --> 01:50:37,120 Speaker 3: I do want to make sure I'm ready for that 2352 01:50:37,240 --> 01:50:37,960 Speaker 3: season as well. 2353 01:50:38,920 --> 01:50:41,680 Speaker 12: I mean, I think he nailed it. I think there 2354 01:50:41,800 --> 01:50:46,200 Speaker 12: is one hundred percent buy in from everybody that's playing, obviously, 2355 01:50:46,200 --> 01:50:47,880 Speaker 12: because you're playing for your country. 2356 01:50:47,560 --> 01:50:49,559 Speaker 5: And you're doing everything you can to win. 2357 01:50:50,080 --> 01:50:53,120 Speaker 12: However, there is this little thing in your head that, 2358 01:50:53,560 --> 01:50:56,080 Speaker 12: like a using Trek scoobl who is a former teammate 2359 01:50:56,120 --> 01:51:00,400 Speaker 12: of mine, using him as an examples, he made one start, 2360 01:51:00,400 --> 01:51:02,200 Speaker 12: and I think that's that was the plan, is for 2361 01:51:02,280 --> 01:51:06,240 Speaker 12: him to only make one start. And he is approaching 2362 01:51:06,240 --> 01:51:09,559 Speaker 12: free agency as a two times young winner who is 2363 01:51:09,880 --> 01:51:15,720 Speaker 12: on the cusp of shattering any sort of pitcher contract 2364 01:51:16,160 --> 01:51:19,839 Speaker 12: for himself and for his future for the next for 2365 01:51:19,840 --> 01:51:23,000 Speaker 12: for the next decade, we'll call it. So there's obviously 2366 01:51:23,040 --> 01:51:26,280 Speaker 12: that thought that's in the in your head. And I 2367 01:51:26,360 --> 01:51:30,840 Speaker 12: do think there's this this thought of man, I've got 2368 01:51:30,880 --> 01:51:32,800 Speaker 12: to do whatever I can to win. However, I do 2369 01:51:32,920 --> 01:51:35,240 Speaker 12: have to look out for myself. And I said, if 2370 01:51:35,280 --> 01:51:38,000 Speaker 12: you're in mid season form and you're healthy, and you're 2371 01:51:38,520 --> 01:51:43,080 Speaker 12: you're built up, and you've made ten consecutive starts, or 2372 01:51:43,120 --> 01:51:45,799 Speaker 12: for a position player, if you've played thirty straight games 2373 01:51:46,160 --> 01:51:49,559 Speaker 12: and you feel good and you're rolling, that care that 2374 01:51:49,760 --> 01:51:53,360 Speaker 12: thought of, not not necessarily today, it would go in 2375 01:51:53,400 --> 01:51:56,240 Speaker 12: with a carelessness to a world to a World War 2376 01:51:56,320 --> 01:51:58,479 Speaker 12: Baseball Classic, or to an Olympics if it were in 2377 01:51:58,520 --> 01:52:00,439 Speaker 12: the middle of the year, but you would go in 2378 01:52:00,560 --> 01:52:02,760 Speaker 12: feeling a lot more confident that you can push it 2379 01:52:03,320 --> 01:52:06,200 Speaker 12: and put the pedal all the way down versus giving 2380 01:52:06,240 --> 01:52:11,599 Speaker 12: it like seventy five percent throttle with trying to win 2381 01:52:12,040 --> 01:52:14,000 Speaker 12: the whole time. So it's a it's a delicate balance. 2382 01:52:14,040 --> 01:52:19,320 Speaker 12: I would I would absolutely believe that, But I just 2383 01:52:20,160 --> 01:52:22,400 Speaker 12: the guys are doing everything they can to win. But 2384 01:52:22,720 --> 01:52:25,280 Speaker 12: whether you like it or not, you're just not fully 2385 01:52:25,320 --> 01:52:28,360 Speaker 12: ready for a season and that competitive of an atmosphere 2386 01:52:28,680 --> 01:52:31,479 Speaker 12: or an atmosphere in March, you're just. 2387 01:52:31,360 --> 01:52:34,400 Speaker 2: Not Tuckertz mark, I was curious you being a catcher 2388 01:52:34,439 --> 01:52:36,400 Speaker 2: and all, what did you think of the cal Raley 2389 01:52:36,560 --> 01:52:39,519 Speaker 2: Randia Rose arena like interaction and stuff where he kind 2390 01:52:39,520 --> 01:52:41,600 Speaker 2: of brushed off a handshake and all that with this 2391 01:52:41,680 --> 01:52:43,600 Speaker 2: team and is that poor form or is that just 2392 01:52:43,640 --> 01:52:45,280 Speaker 2: part of the game because they're competing. 2393 01:52:45,360 --> 01:52:46,280 Speaker 1: What did you think about that? 2394 01:52:46,960 --> 01:52:48,960 Speaker 5: It's interesting, Uh, it's interesting. 2395 01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:51,840 Speaker 12: I would be willing to bet that cal went into 2396 01:52:51,840 --> 01:52:55,479 Speaker 12: that with like laughing, like I think like probably under 2397 01:52:55,560 --> 01:52:57,760 Speaker 12: his mask, there was probably like. 2398 01:52:57,720 --> 01:53:01,519 Speaker 5: A smile, like a joke, jokingly, like I'm not gonna 2399 01:53:01,520 --> 01:53:02,000 Speaker 5: shake his hand. 2400 01:53:02,040 --> 01:53:03,720 Speaker 12: He's on the other team, playing for another country, even 2401 01:53:03,760 --> 01:53:06,360 Speaker 12: though we are teammates, kind of messing around, and then 2402 01:53:06,360 --> 01:53:09,559 Speaker 12: it maybe kind of turned into something that it wasn't 2403 01:53:09,600 --> 01:53:13,680 Speaker 12: intended on turning into. So I didn't I don't think 2404 01:53:13,720 --> 01:53:16,280 Speaker 12: anything of it. I'm sure they're they're gonna be fine 2405 01:53:16,320 --> 01:53:19,080 Speaker 12: and they'll laugh about it when they get back together 2406 01:53:19,120 --> 01:53:22,200 Speaker 12: in Seattle. But I didn't think anything of it. I mean, 2407 01:53:22,200 --> 01:53:25,280 Speaker 12: I've I've played against guys that I've played with for 2408 01:53:26,280 --> 01:53:29,360 Speaker 12: five six years, playing against them the following year, and 2409 01:53:29,920 --> 01:53:32,720 Speaker 12: it's just there is this element of like if I 2410 01:53:32,800 --> 01:53:34,479 Speaker 12: give you a hug or if I shake your hand 2411 01:53:34,479 --> 01:53:37,280 Speaker 12: at the plate, it's kind of not the time or 2412 01:53:37,280 --> 01:53:39,160 Speaker 12: place to do it, because like, I'm trying to beat 2413 01:53:39,200 --> 01:53:40,880 Speaker 12: you and you're trying to beat me, So I don't 2414 01:53:41,200 --> 01:53:43,439 Speaker 12: I could see where Cal's coming from, But then also 2415 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:45,920 Speaker 12: I could see where Randy's kind of caught off guardlic 2416 01:53:45,960 --> 01:53:47,719 Speaker 12: Hey man, Like we just played in the World Series together, 2417 01:53:48,320 --> 01:53:51,320 Speaker 12: we spend nine months together and not gonna shake my hand. 2418 01:53:51,360 --> 01:53:53,080 Speaker 12: That's kind of that's kind of messed up.

But I rang 2443 01:54:56,760 --> 01:54:59,640 Speaker 12: the towel out of my career long enough for me, 2444 01:55:00,000 --> 01:55:03,680 Speaker 12: and I enjoy playing golf and coaching my boys now 2445 01:55:03,680 --> 01:55:05,560 Speaker 12: more than I do playing it. 2446 01:55:05,600 --> 01:55:06,160 Speaker 5: That's for sure. 2447 01:55:06,240 --> 01:55:08,240 Speaker 1: You're gonna come play golf with us on April thirtieth 2448 01:55:08,240 --> 01:55:10,440 Speaker 1: down a Legends if the weather a hold. 2449 01:55:10,520 --> 01:55:11,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna. 2450 01:55:11,320 --> 01:55:13,080 Speaker 12: I'm gonna get a I'm going to get a group 2451 01:55:13,080 --> 01:55:14,080 Speaker 12: together when we come down there. 2452 01:55:14,080 --> 01:55:15,160 Speaker 1: This is your official invite. 2453 01:55:15,160 --> 01:55:15,280 Speaker 9: Man. 2454 01:55:15,280 --> 01:55:16,440 Speaker 1: We would love to see you down there. 2455 01:55:16,680 --> 01:55:18,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I appreciate. I just want to get out driven 2456 01:55:18,440 --> 01:55:20,440 Speaker 5: by Kevin. That's the only thing that may hold me 2457 01:55:20,520 --> 01:55:21,040 Speaker 5: up a little bit. 2458 01:55:21,240 --> 01:55:22,360 Speaker 1: You got to get him at the end of the 2459 01:55:22,400 --> 01:55:25,000 Speaker 1: day when he's already you know, put eighty drives over 2460 01:55:25,040 --> 01:55:25,760 Speaker 1: the fairway there. 2461 01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:28,200 Speaker 6: I've seen Tucker at the golf ball. That man is 2462 01:55:28,240 --> 01:55:30,480 Speaker 6: hitting it for miles. He looks like cal Riley in 2463 01:55:30,480 --> 01:55:32,120 Speaker 6: a dirty. 2464 01:55:32,880 --> 01:55:35,640 Speaker 1: Two quick questions. One about the Reds. We found out 2465 01:55:35,640 --> 01:55:37,880 Speaker 1: that Hunter Green is going to miss half the season. 2466 01:55:37,960 --> 01:55:40,640 Speaker 1: You had to leave spring training and go get the 2467 01:55:41,000 --> 01:55:43,640 Speaker 1: get his elbow. Looked at man and what does that 2468 01:55:43,680 --> 01:55:46,480 Speaker 1: do for our Reds and back to back playoff appearances? 2469 01:55:47,240 --> 01:55:49,400 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean I guess you could look at it 2470 01:55:49,440 --> 01:55:53,880 Speaker 12: two ways. Obviously, it is a long season, and it's 2471 01:55:54,000 --> 01:55:56,400 Speaker 12: better that he's going to get it taken care of 2472 01:55:56,480 --> 01:55:58,880 Speaker 12: and come back in the middle of the year, versus 2473 01:55:58,880 --> 01:56:00,600 Speaker 12: it happened in the middle of the year and miss 2474 01:56:00,680 --> 01:56:03,480 Speaker 12: the rest of the season. So I guess you could 2475 01:56:03,480 --> 01:56:06,040 Speaker 12: look at it that way. So you're gonna get a 2476 01:56:06,080 --> 01:56:10,240 Speaker 12: guy that's fresh, hopefully and not have innings on his 2477 01:56:10,360 --> 01:56:12,480 Speaker 12: arm when you're trying to make a push to to 2478 01:56:12,560 --> 01:56:14,600 Speaker 12: win the division or to get into the playoffs. 2479 01:56:14,880 --> 01:56:16,240 Speaker 5: Uh. So you can look at it that way. 2480 01:56:16,040 --> 01:56:19,840 Speaker 12: From a positive positive stance, But obviously the the pessimistic 2481 01:56:19,920 --> 01:56:21,600 Speaker 12: side of it is you're not going to have him 2482 01:56:21,640 --> 01:56:23,800 Speaker 12: for the first three or four months of the year. 2483 01:56:24,360 --> 01:56:24,520 Speaker 9: Uh. 2484 01:56:24,560 --> 01:56:26,920 Speaker 12: And when he does come back, you're hopeful that you're 2485 01:56:26,960 --> 01:56:30,080 Speaker 12: going to get the same guy, uh that that's been 2486 01:56:30,120 --> 01:56:31,880 Speaker 12: out there that when he's healthy, he's one of the 2487 01:56:31,880 --> 01:56:33,000 Speaker 12: better pitchers in baseball. 2488 01:56:33,040 --> 01:56:34,520 Speaker 5: So you you got to look at it. 2489 01:56:34,640 --> 01:56:36,120 Speaker 12: I mean, you have no choice to look at it 2490 01:56:36,120 --> 01:56:37,920 Speaker 12: in a positive way if you're in the clubhouse with 2491 01:56:37,960 --> 01:56:41,680 Speaker 12: the Reds, or you're gonna just kind of play well 2492 01:56:41,720 --> 01:56:44,120 Speaker 12: as me and say here we go again, which hopefully 2493 01:56:44,160 --> 01:56:47,400 Speaker 12: they don't do. I know Terry Francona is gonna keep 2494 01:56:47,400 --> 01:56:48,640 Speaker 12: those guys in a good spot. 2495 01:56:49,040 --> 01:56:50,400 Speaker 5: They've got a lot of good guys. 2496 01:56:50,160 --> 01:56:52,919 Speaker 12: In that order and in the organization, on the staff, 2497 01:56:53,280 --> 01:56:54,720 Speaker 12: in the clubhouse that I think they'll be. 2498 01:56:55,080 --> 01:56:55,840 Speaker 5: They'll be fine. 2499 01:56:56,040 --> 01:56:58,800 Speaker 12: But obviously when you're when you're gonna miss your ace 2500 01:56:58,960 --> 01:57:03,840 Speaker 12: for the first half of the year, if not longer. Yeah, 2501 01:57:03,840 --> 01:57:06,000 Speaker 12: I mean you see, you see seasons come down to 2502 01:57:06,040 --> 01:57:08,160 Speaker 12: one game every year. As crazy as it is to 2503 01:57:08,200 --> 01:57:10,000 Speaker 12: say that you play one hundred and sixty two games 2504 01:57:10,080 --> 01:57:12,040 Speaker 12: and you you come down to the last two or 2505 01:57:12,040 --> 01:57:14,760 Speaker 12: three games of the year and they matter, I think 2506 01:57:14,800 --> 01:57:16,160 Speaker 12: that's nuts, But it is. 2507 01:57:16,080 --> 01:57:19,400 Speaker 5: The beauty that is baseball. So I it is unfortunate. 2508 01:57:19,520 --> 01:57:21,640 Speaker 5: I root for Hunter. He's a good kid. 2509 01:57:21,680 --> 01:57:25,200 Speaker 12: I've known him since he got drafted. So I hope 2510 01:57:25,200 --> 01:57:27,360 Speaker 12: he comes back healthy. I hope it's a quicker recovery 2511 01:57:27,400 --> 01:57:30,240 Speaker 12: than maybe some aer saying. And he comes back and 2512 01:57:30,280 --> 01:57:33,040 Speaker 12: he's uh, he's the same guy that that uh that 2513 01:57:33,080 --> 01:57:34,520 Speaker 12: when he's healthy, because he's electric. 2514 01:57:35,160 --> 01:57:35,520 Speaker 4: Tucker. 2515 01:57:35,560 --> 01:57:38,000 Speaker 3: I know your kids are still relatively young, but as 2516 01:57:38,040 --> 01:57:40,440 Speaker 3: your oldest, you know, springs up a little bit. Do 2517 01:57:40,480 --> 01:57:43,120 Speaker 3: you have to remind him a pops was pretty nice, 2518 01:57:43,520 --> 01:57:46,080 Speaker 3: you know with the game of baseball or has that 2519 01:57:46,320 --> 01:57:48,480 Speaker 3: you know, come to Jesus moment happened. 2520 01:57:48,200 --> 01:57:51,880 Speaker 12: Yet, So it not with my not with my eight 2521 01:57:51,920 --> 01:57:54,760 Speaker 12: year old, because he's he's seen me play and he's 2522 01:57:54,840 --> 01:57:58,120 Speaker 12: been like locked in. He never wanted to so when 2523 01:57:58,520 --> 01:58:00,600 Speaker 12: in the cities that I played, and we were very 2524 01:58:00,600 --> 01:58:04,400 Speaker 12: thankful to have like babysitting during games. Uh so my 2525 01:58:04,440 --> 01:58:06,520 Speaker 12: wife could pass off our kids every once in a 2526 01:58:06,600 --> 01:58:10,120 Speaker 12: while at the ballpark and the team would hire a 2527 01:58:10,160 --> 01:58:13,840 Speaker 12: babysitter to look after the player's kids so the moms 2528 01:58:13,880 --> 01:58:15,880 Speaker 12: could get a little bit of a break. But he 2529 01:58:16,000 --> 01:58:17,960 Speaker 12: never wanted to go. He always wanted to sit in 2530 01:58:18,000 --> 01:58:20,360 Speaker 12: the seats and watch the game.

It's just 2594 02:00:47,640 --> 02:00:48,960 Speaker 5: it's there's. 2595 02:00:48,800 --> 02:00:51,960 Speaker 12: There's really no words to kind of truly explain what 2596 02:00:52,040 --> 02:00:55,520 Speaker 12: he's doing, but it is just it's it's remarkable. 2597 02:00:55,560 --> 02:00:58,440 Speaker 1: Really, He's truly that one guy that every team when 2598 02:00:58,440 --> 02:01:01,080 Speaker 1: they're playing against him, all the players get off the 2599 02:01:01,120 --> 02:01:03,800 Speaker 1: bench and they're they're leaning up against the fence to 2600 02:01:03,880 --> 02:01:05,600 Speaker 1: watch what he's doing at the plate right. 2601 02:01:06,120 --> 02:01:08,920 Speaker 12: No, no doubt, no doubt, and on the mound. It's 2602 02:01:09,120 --> 02:01:10,720 Speaker 12: it's it's it's just wild. Really. 2603 02:01:11,320 --> 02:01:13,400 Speaker 1: Hey, thanks for your time today, man.

If you're just joining us, 2614 02:01:32,600 --> 02:01:35,040 Speaker 1: you're just waking up or you've been otherwise engaged. Maybe 2615 02:01:35,080 --> 02:01:38,200 Speaker 1: you just got off work, the swingshift whatever major news 2616 02:01:38,240 --> 02:01:40,600 Speaker 1: in the National Football League, and it definitely affects the 2617 02:01:40,640 --> 02:01:43,080 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. Tell you about it next at ninety three 2618 02:01:43,160 --> 02:01:58,880 Speaker 1: five and one oh seven five The Man. 2619 02:01:56,720 --> 02:01:59,840 Speaker 10: You're listening to the fan Morning Show on Sports Radio 2620 02:02:00,080 --> 02:02:02,320 Speaker 10: ninety three and one oh seven five. 2621 02:02:02,240 --> 02:02:10,560 Speaker 1: The fare My goodness, do we have news to report 2622 02:02:10,600 --> 02:02:13,440 Speaker 1: today that trickles down to the Colts. Obviously, just a 2623 02:02:13,520 --> 02:02:16,320 Speaker 1: little while ago, about half an hour ago, ESPN's Adam 2624 02:02:16,360 --> 02:02:20,720 Speaker 1: Schefter reporting that the Baltimore Ravens, who backed out of 2625 02:02:20,720 --> 02:02:24,680 Speaker 1: their deal with the Raiders yesterday when they had apparently 2626 02:02:24,720 --> 02:02:28,520 Speaker 1: acquired Max Crosby for two first round draft picks. They 2627 02:02:28,520 --> 02:02:30,800 Speaker 1: said that Maxfield is physical, they send him back to 2628 02:02:30,840 --> 02:02:34,480 Speaker 1: the Raiders. They get their picks back, and less than 2629 02:02:34,600 --> 02:02:38,080 Speaker 1: eighteen hours later, James Boyd they announced that they have 2630 02:02:38,160 --> 02:02:40,920 Speaker 1: signed Trey Hendrickson to a four year, one hundred twelve 2631 02:02:40,960 --> 02:02:43,520 Speaker 1: million dollar deal. According to Adam Schefter, it could be 2632 02:02:43,560 --> 02:02:45,960 Speaker 1: worth as much as one hundred and twenty million dollars 2633 02:02:46,000 --> 02:02:48,480 Speaker 1: when it's all said and done. And before I have 2634 02:02:48,520 --> 02:02:50,880 Speaker 1: you guys comment on this, Brad one of our loyal 2635 02:02:50,920 --> 02:02:54,440 Speaker 1: listeners Texas and says, So it takes the Colts months 2636 02:02:54,480 --> 02:02:58,000 Speaker 1: to negotiate a contract with an oft injured quarterback, takes 2637 02:02:58,040 --> 02:03:00,240 Speaker 1: the Ravens less than twelve hours to close it deal 2638 02:03:00,280 --> 02:03:02,800 Speaker 1: with the star defensive end. This is a great example 2639 02:03:02,840 --> 02:03:06,640 Speaker 1: of why the Ballard lead Colts will never be more than. 2640 02:03:06,560 --> 02:03:09,600 Speaker 2: Medio two defensive ends because that next Crosby and then like, 2641 02:03:09,640 --> 02:03:11,480 Speaker 2: now you know what we're gonna get Trendrickson instead. 2642 02:03:12,280 --> 02:03:14,040 Speaker 6: Well, i'd ask Brad, who would you rather play for 2643 02:03:15,720 --> 02:03:18,280 Speaker 6: Ravens of the Colts? 2644 02:03:18,320 --> 02:03:20,880 Speaker 4: Pretty simple, It's pretty easy, right, Yeah. 2645 02:03:20,920 --> 02:03:23,920 Speaker 3: And also they have their quarterback situation already nailed down, 2646 02:03:24,120 --> 02:03:26,360 Speaker 3: like Lamar Jackson isn't going anywhere. You still have to 2647 02:03:26,440 --> 02:03:31,040 Speaker 3: again order operations. Please excuse my dear on Sally pim Doss, 2648 02:03:31,400 --> 02:03:34,600 Speaker 3: which I did not remember very well back in high school. 2649 02:03:34,960 --> 02:03:37,200 Speaker 3: You I think you had to reach something long term 2650 02:03:37,200 --> 02:03:40,000 Speaker 3: with Daniel Jones before you could even try to pivot 2651 02:03:40,040 --> 02:03:42,360 Speaker 3: to Tree Hendrickson. Now, that could be something that's on 2652 02:03:42,400 --> 02:03:45,920 Speaker 3: your radar, but when we're talking about making moves, you 2653 02:03:45,960 --> 02:03:49,240 Speaker 3: can't make that move in my mind right now if 2654 02:03:49,280 --> 02:03:51,360 Speaker 3: you still have not reached an agreement with Daniel Jones. 2655 02:03:51,440 --> 02:03:54,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, and this is just this is the risk of 2656 02:03:54,400 --> 02:03:58,480 Speaker 6: free agency, and okay, blame on Chris bow that's where 2657 02:03:58,480 --> 02:04:00,200 Speaker 6: Brad wanted to go with that. Okay, if we go 2658 02:04:00,240 --> 02:04:02,560 Speaker 6: down that path. How much blame are you put on 2659 02:04:02,680 --> 02:04:06,040 Speaker 6: Chris Ballad for the Trey Hendrickson situation? You know, to me, 2660 02:04:06,280 --> 02:04:09,640 Speaker 6: it's more of the kind of the nine year situation, 2661 02:04:10,160 --> 02:04:14,280 Speaker 6: and I probably point more towards the draft picks versus 2662 02:04:14,320 --> 02:04:18,120 Speaker 6: maybe Trey Hendrickson wanting to be in Baltimore or Daniel 2663 02:04:18,240 --> 02:04:20,680 Speaker 6: Hunter a few years ago, who the Colts heavily pursued. 2664 02:04:21,000 --> 02:04:24,680 Speaker 6: Now he had some hometown interest in Houston, so I 2665 02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:27,120 Speaker 6: think that played into it as well. But again that's 2666 02:04:27,160 --> 02:04:30,080 Speaker 6: some of the Not everybody's an Alec Pierce. Not everybody 2667 02:04:30,120 --> 02:04:33,920 Speaker 6: wants to necessarily go back to your situation or wants 2668 02:04:33,960 --> 02:04:36,000 Speaker 6: to be a part of your situation. For me, if 2669 02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:37,880 Speaker 6: you want to lay Ballard blame when it comes to 2670 02:04:37,880 --> 02:04:45,080 Speaker 6: this edge rushing issue, Torell Basham, Kamoko, Turry Taekwon Lewis, 2671 02:04:45,520 --> 02:04:49,960 Speaker 6: Ben bannegu Quitty pay Diodengo. Yeah, some point you got 2672 02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:52,800 Speaker 6: to hit I mean, what is that? And I swear 2673 02:04:52,840 --> 02:04:54,520 Speaker 6: I'm not doing this. Kids are in school? What is that? 2674 02:04:54,600 --> 02:04:59,360 Speaker 6: Six or seven defensive ends, defensive lineman that you've spent 2675 02:04:59,640 --> 02:05:04,320 Speaker 6: top three round draft picks on, and none of them 2676 02:05:04,720 --> 02:05:09,240 Speaker 6: you would say, has turned into even a glimmer of 2677 02:05:09,240 --> 02:05:12,200 Speaker 6: an impactful pass rusher. Lewis is the only one that 2678 02:05:12,240 --> 02:05:16,400 Speaker 6: has made it past his rookie contract, and he's just 2679 02:05:16,480 --> 02:05:19,320 Speaker 6: kind of turned into a rotational. 2680 02:05:18,920 --> 02:05:20,120 Speaker 7: Versatile guy, depth guy. 2681 02:05:20,200 --> 02:05:20,400 Speaker 4: Yeah. 2682 02:05:20,520 --> 02:05:24,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, so that's where the blame for me would lie 2683 02:05:24,360 --> 02:05:28,480 Speaker 6: in the Chris Ballard situation here. Yeah, the Hendrickson thing. Sure, 2684 02:05:28,480 --> 02:05:30,960 Speaker 6: in a perfect world you whatever are offering him some 2685 02:05:30,960 --> 02:05:33,720 Speaker 6: sweet deal and that it all looks glorious to him 2686 02:05:33,720 --> 02:05:35,040 Speaker 6: and he wants to come here. But again that's a 2687 02:05:35,120 --> 02:05:39,440 Speaker 6: risk and fregency. These guys get to decide things. It's 2688 02:05:39,520 --> 02:05:43,879 Speaker 6: more of draft. You chose those guys, you could develop them, 2689 02:05:44,200 --> 02:05:46,960 Speaker 6: you could obviously benefit from them on rookie contracts, and 2690 02:05:47,000 --> 02:05:49,680 Speaker 6: you didn't want any of them back on long term deals. 2691 02:05:49,800 --> 02:05:53,280 Speaker 3: I do want to validate Brad though, for with the frustration, 2692 02:05:53,440 --> 02:05:56,600 Speaker 3: because yeah, I understand that the cold tap I made 2693 02:05:56,600 --> 02:05:59,160 Speaker 3: the playoffs is twenty twenty. So you're trying to figure out, Okay, well, 2694 02:05:59,200 --> 02:06:01,600 Speaker 3: if the GM is gonna be back again, why should 2695 02:06:01,640 --> 02:06:03,760 Speaker 3: we trust him to figure it out this time. And 2696 02:06:03,800 --> 02:06:07,000 Speaker 3: so that frustration is something that a lot of fans 2697 02:06:07,000 --> 02:06:09,560 Speaker 3: I think can relate to because you just haven't had 2698 02:06:09,600 --> 02:06:13,440 Speaker 3: the success to match more patients. 2699 02:06:13,800 --> 02:06:15,560 Speaker 4: We've talked about it at length here on the show. 2700 02:06:15,640 --> 02:06:18,720 Speaker 3: But have the Colts been sort of like the forty 2701 02:06:18,800 --> 02:06:21,280 Speaker 3: nine ers who have had some misses, I mean Trey 2702 02:06:21,360 --> 02:06:23,960 Speaker 3: Lances one of their biggest misses in draft history. But 2703 02:06:24,000 --> 02:06:26,680 Speaker 3: they've also won, and they've pivoted and they've had success, 2704 02:06:26,760 --> 02:06:29,120 Speaker 3: and that allows you to have more grace. 2705 02:06:29,200 --> 02:06:30,280 Speaker 4: Even in this city. 2706 02:06:30,760 --> 02:06:33,680 Speaker 3: We look at this Patier's trade coming up with Ivisa 2707 02:06:33,720 --> 02:06:38,320 Speaker 3: Zubats and the ping pong ball and implications with the draft, 2708 02:06:38,320 --> 02:06:40,600 Speaker 3: and we say, oh boy, that's a risky trade there. 2709 02:06:41,000 --> 02:06:42,760 Speaker 4: We don't know they're gonna get that top four pick. 2710 02:06:42,840 --> 02:06:43,400 Speaker 4: Is it worth it? 2711 02:06:43,840 --> 02:06:47,960 Speaker 3: But overall, the Patiers have earned that level of grace 2712 02:06:48,000 --> 02:06:50,920 Speaker 3: in trust because they've delivered, whereas the Colts have not. 2713 02:06:51,080 --> 02:06:54,080 Speaker 6: And again I believe in Rapaport has reported that the 2714 02:06:54,200 --> 02:06:59,520 Speaker 6: Colts were in pole position to land Trey Hendrickson, Oh boy, 2715 02:06:59,560 --> 02:07:04,920 Speaker 6: prior to the Max Crosby backing out. Well, I should 2716 02:07:04,920 --> 02:07:07,040 Speaker 6: say the Ravens backing out of the Max Crosby trade, 2717 02:07:07,200 --> 02:07:11,040 Speaker 6: and again just to remind everybody agreements, everything is an 2718 02:07:11,040 --> 02:07:13,560 Speaker 6: agreement until four o'clock today. Now ninety nine point nine 2719 02:07:13,600 --> 02:07:16,760 Speaker 6: percent of the moves end up going through. But yet, 2720 02:07:16,800 --> 02:07:18,560 Speaker 6: when last night happened, I said to you guys to 2721 02:07:18,600 --> 02:07:20,640 Speaker 6: lead off the show. My first thought when I saw 2722 02:07:20,640 --> 02:07:23,960 Speaker 6: that Max Crosby news was holy bleep. I hope the 2723 02:07:24,000 --> 02:07:27,200 Speaker 6: kids didn't hear that. Oh my, what does this do 2724 02:07:27,240 --> 02:07:30,400 Speaker 6: for Trey Henderson? That was my first thought, because when 2725 02:07:30,400 --> 02:07:32,920 Speaker 6: you just start connecting dots, I mean, Baltimore is willing 2726 02:07:32,920 --> 02:07:34,960 Speaker 6: to give up two first round picks for Crosby. Originally 2727 02:07:35,200 --> 02:07:41,280 Speaker 6: they're not giving up any picks for Trey Hendrickson. Do 2728 02:07:41,360 --> 02:07:43,800 Speaker 6: you call the Raiders or there's no way, right. 2729 02:07:44,320 --> 02:07:46,680 Speaker 1: What are you going to give them? Right? There's nothing 2730 02:07:46,680 --> 02:07:49,800 Speaker 1: to give them. Ryan from Pendleton says, I'd argue that 2731 02:07:49,840 --> 02:07:52,839 Speaker 1: Ballard was properly negotiating that a four year deal Henderson 2732 02:07:52,920 --> 02:07:55,760 Speaker 1: got is not beneficial to the cults getting younger. 2733 02:07:57,160 --> 02:08:00,480 Speaker 3: Well, again, this is where I say we have to 2734 02:08:00,720 --> 02:08:04,440 Speaker 3: not look at this in a vacuum and say the 2735 02:08:04,480 --> 02:08:06,200 Speaker 3: only players are going to get our younger and faster, 2736 02:08:07,280 --> 02:08:10,200 Speaker 3: faster ideally, but younger. As if you asked Ballard than 2737 02:08:10,240 --> 02:08:14,000 Speaker 3: he Yeah, he conceded, like, yeah, we cannot. I mean, 2738 02:08:14,040 --> 02:08:16,080 Speaker 3: an ideal world, you'll just get a bunch of rookies. 2739 02:08:16,080 --> 02:08:17,800 Speaker 3: They'll be gray, and they'll be cheap, and they'll be young. 2740 02:08:18,360 --> 02:08:21,160 Speaker 3: But I do think there's a balance there. And ultimately, 2741 02:08:21,240 --> 02:08:22,880 Speaker 3: if you look at the rest of the edge rushers 2742 02:08:22,880 --> 02:08:26,360 Speaker 3: that are out there beyondre Hendrickson, all the guys are older. 2743 02:08:26,480 --> 02:08:27,400 Speaker 4: I mean, they got warts. 2744 02:08:27,440 --> 02:08:30,920 Speaker 3: They've either have injury history or they're older, or they're 2745 02:08:31,040 --> 02:08:35,280 Speaker 3: young and really unproven. So we'll see what the Colts 2746 02:08:35,280 --> 02:08:37,320 Speaker 3: to do to pivot and to add to their edge 2747 02:08:37,360 --> 02:08:40,440 Speaker 3: rush because they have to. But yeah, I guess I'll, 2748 02:08:40,520 --> 02:08:42,240 Speaker 3: you know, give a little bit of grace there. But 2749 02:08:42,280 --> 02:08:44,320 Speaker 3: again I understand people who don't want to give that 2750 02:08:44,720 --> 02:08:47,480 Speaker 3: because whatever the Colt plans have been over the last 2751 02:08:47,840 --> 02:08:50,880 Speaker 3: five years, they have not resulted in tangible success when 2752 02:08:50,920 --> 02:08:53,080 Speaker 3: it comes to reaching the playoffs at minimum. 2753 02:08:53,120 --> 02:08:55,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, I honestly think for our listening audience, and maybe 2754 02:08:55,080 --> 02:08:57,839 Speaker 6: he's just joined us now, it'll be a fun relisten 2755 02:08:57,920 --> 02:09:00,640 Speaker 6: for you our show today because we've kind of lived 2756 02:09:00,680 --> 02:09:03,280 Speaker 6: this Trey Hendrickson thing out for three hours now. Yeah, 2757 02:09:03,320 --> 02:09:05,440 Speaker 6: and the Max Crosby thing at the start of the show. 2758 02:09:05,440 --> 02:09:09,640 Speaker 6: And you know, to Ryan's point, we discussed Hendrickson. James, 2759 02:09:09,680 --> 02:09:12,200 Speaker 6: I asked you probably an hour ago, open ended, what 2760 02:09:12,240 --> 02:09:14,360 Speaker 6: are your thoughts on Trey Hendrickson to the Colts if 2761 02:09:14,360 --> 02:09:16,960 Speaker 6: it were to happen, And again there by no means 2762 02:09:17,040 --> 02:09:19,680 Speaker 6: is that an absolute slam dunk. Ryan of course points out, 2763 02:09:19,960 --> 02:09:21,920 Speaker 6: you know, the age and the contract and coming off 2764 02:09:21,920 --> 02:09:24,320 Speaker 6: the hip and all of that. To me, again, it's 2765 02:09:24,400 --> 02:09:30,160 Speaker 6: much more of a big picture how you've gotten here right, 2766 02:09:30,280 --> 02:09:32,879 Speaker 6: one of the most important positions in all of football. 2767 02:09:32,920 --> 02:09:35,640 Speaker 3: And I will say, to peel back the curtain a 2768 02:09:35,640 --> 02:09:37,520 Speaker 3: little bit, it's very fluid. 2769 02:09:37,880 --> 02:09:38,040 Speaker 5: You know. 2770 02:09:38,080 --> 02:09:41,680 Speaker 3: I was out actually last night hoping with JMV and 2771 02:09:42,040 --> 02:09:44,280 Speaker 3: you know, I get a message and saying, hey, you 2772 02:09:44,320 --> 02:09:46,840 Speaker 3: know you need to look into some of this cold 2773 02:09:46,880 --> 02:09:49,200 Speaker 3: Trean Henderson stuff, and you know, get some things ready 2774 02:09:49,200 --> 02:09:51,080 Speaker 3: to go as far as like just what we call 2775 02:09:51,200 --> 02:09:53,560 Speaker 3: pre rights, pre written stories that in case this happens, 2776 02:09:53,560 --> 02:09:55,640 Speaker 3: we'll just hit published and get it out there. 2777 02:09:55,760 --> 02:09:59,000 Speaker 4: So yeah, there was real smoke there behind that fire. 2778 02:09:59,560 --> 02:10:03,080 Speaker 3: But to Kevin's point, once the Max Crosby thing happens, 2779 02:10:03,480 --> 02:10:06,800 Speaker 3: that changes so much so quickly for this league. And 2780 02:10:06,880 --> 02:10:08,600 Speaker 3: you look at the Colts and you could say, oh 2781 02:10:08,600 --> 02:10:11,280 Speaker 3: what they missed out again. But again, such a unique 2782 02:10:11,280 --> 02:10:14,360 Speaker 3: circumstance that, I mean, ninety nine point nine percent of 2783 02:10:14,360 --> 02:10:16,520 Speaker 3: the time doesn't happen. And of course the one time 2784 02:10:16,560 --> 02:10:20,000 Speaker 3: it does it is, you know, affecting the Colts tangentially, you. 2785 02:10:19,960 --> 02:10:22,960 Speaker 1: Bury the lead. You and you and JAMV, J ANDV 2786 02:10:23,040 --> 02:10:24,160 Speaker 1: have gotten past your beef. 2787 02:10:25,120 --> 02:10:27,120 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean shout out to JAMV. 2788 02:10:27,200 --> 02:10:29,680 Speaker 3: I'm trying to get more more basketball hoop sessions in, 2789 02:10:29,840 --> 02:10:32,760 Speaker 3: so you know, call us up here on the Fan 2790 02:10:32,840 --> 02:10:34,160 Speaker 3: Morning show if you want to let me know where 2791 02:10:34,160 --> 02:10:36,840 Speaker 3: the hoop or text the line.

Come on, you can't. 2836 02:12:24,800 --> 02:12:26,680 Speaker 3: I feel like everyone in Indiana has a jumper, so 2837 02:12:26,960 --> 02:12:27,880 Speaker 3: it's always a good time. 2838 02:12:27,920 --> 02:12:29,920 Speaker 1: That's how that works, all ry. Kyler Murray is going 2839 02:12:29,960 --> 02:12:32,160 Speaker 1: to be released today. The Cardinals have made that announcement. 2840 02:12:32,240 --> 02:12:35,040 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins is going to be released today. The Falcons 2841 02:12:35,080 --> 02:12:37,920 Speaker 1: have made that announcement. Obviously, the Cults are deep in 2842 02:12:37,960 --> 02:12:42,800 Speaker 1: the negotiations with Daniel Jones on a deal. But if 2843 02:12:42,800 --> 02:12:46,320 Speaker 1: something fell through, I guess there are options, Kevin, right, 2844 02:12:46,600 --> 02:12:48,760 Speaker 1: because everything else seems to fall through around the Colts 2845 02:12:48,760 --> 02:12:49,440 Speaker 1: these days. 2846 02:12:49,840 --> 02:12:50,360 Speaker 6: What do you mean. 2847 02:12:51,080 --> 02:12:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, if they don't get a deal done 2848 02:12:52,600 --> 02:12:54,200 Speaker 1: with Daniel Jones, I mean they got it back on 2849 02:12:54,240 --> 02:12:57,280 Speaker 1: the transition. But would you be interested in either a 2850 02:12:57,400 --> 02:13:00,520 Speaker 1: Kyler Murray or oh geez, I k moving forward? 2851 02:13:00,600 --> 02:13:02,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean they don't get a deal done with 2852 02:13:02,440 --> 02:13:04,520 Speaker 6: Daniel Jones, then yeah, you might as well just go 2853 02:13:04,600 --> 02:13:05,960 Speaker 6: out and get hit by a semi. 2854 02:13:06,000 --> 02:13:09,080 Speaker 1: At this point, consider that's a rough Wednesday. 2855 02:13:09,280 --> 02:13:10,160 Speaker 6: Considering what the Colts. 2856 02:13:10,240 --> 02:13:11,320 Speaker 1: I didn't see that one coming. 2857 02:13:11,440 --> 02:13:15,200 Speaker 6: I mean season, I mean the Colts playing this off 2858 02:13:15,280 --> 02:13:17,960 Speaker 6: season for Pierce Jones and a big splash of defensive end. 2859 02:13:18,360 --> 02:13:20,400 Speaker 6: That was the plan. The big splash defensive end is 2860 02:13:20,440 --> 02:13:24,000 Speaker 6: largely gone. So I mean Daniel Jones. That would be 2861 02:13:24,200 --> 02:13:25,840 Speaker 6: one of three that would be quite the uh. 2862 02:13:26,200 --> 02:13:27,760 Speaker 1: I was just playing the what if game. 2863 02:13:28,120 --> 02:13:30,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, the what if game is non existed in that. 2864 02:13:30,280 --> 02:13:31,520 Speaker 1: That's what we do on morning shows. 2865 02:13:31,520 --> 02:13:33,360 Speaker 3: We play the what if And I'm saying for the 2866 02:13:33,400 --> 02:13:35,160 Speaker 3: Colts we can play those games. They told us all 2867 02:13:35,200 --> 02:13:37,880 Speaker 3: along it was Daniel or nobody else. So the idea 2868 02:13:37,880 --> 02:13:39,840 Speaker 3: of Kyler Murray A Kirk Cousins being in the Colts 2869 02:13:39,920 --> 02:13:41,520 Speaker 3: uniform is zero. 2870 02:13:42,040 --> 02:13:46,560 Speaker 6: I am curious if they okay, what does the final 2871 02:13:46,640 --> 02:13:50,760 Speaker 6: cap situation look like by four o'clock? Yeah, and assuming 2872 02:13:50,840 --> 02:13:55,920 Speaker 6: they continued to try to open up cap space, where 2873 02:13:55,920 --> 02:13:58,960 Speaker 6: does that go? The moves are made right, because clearly 2874 02:13:59,000 --> 02:14:02,680 Speaker 6: they had allocated things for Trey Hendrickson. Yeah, so okay, 2875 02:14:02,800 --> 02:14:06,440 Speaker 6: where is that cap space then going to go? Because 2876 02:14:07,480 --> 02:14:09,320 Speaker 6: right now, you know, that's a good chunk of change 2877 02:14:09,360 --> 02:14:11,120 Speaker 6: that they don't really have allocated for anywhere. 2878 02:14:11,160 --> 02:14:12,120 Speaker 7: That's obvious to me. 2879 02:14:12,840 --> 02:14:16,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I would say that the big move this 2880 02:14:17,120 --> 02:14:19,160 Speaker 3: morning was restructuring Bernard Ryman. 2881 02:14:19,240 --> 02:14:22,680 Speaker 4: That gave you a eight point three million in free agency. 2882 02:14:22,320 --> 02:14:23,800 Speaker 6: Trading, Franklin trading, Pittman. 2883 02:14:23,880 --> 02:14:25,760 Speaker 1: All that we got to go. Guys, keep a tune 2884 02:14:25,800 --> 02:14:27,360 Speaker 1: to the fan all day long. We'll talk to you soon.
