We have not had any formal discussions, 22 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 1: but we know from previous comments from Rodre Goodell that 23 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: he really wants it and that the owners really wanted to. 24 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:52,520 Speaker 2: He said. 25 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: Among the questions that need to be discussed are what 26 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: are the roster sizes? 27 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: Are there two buys and what are the union's priorities. 28 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 1: I find that really interesting because I think a lot 29 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: of us have talked about, well, if. 30 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: You go to eighteen, you gulmost have to have two buys. 31 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: But the roster size, that's something that's very intriguing to 32 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: me because I've been wanting the rosters expanded for a 33 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: long time. 34 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 3: You have, I have a big I didn't know that. 35 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: Did you not get my newsletter?

Why why are we doing it? What's what's 44 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:39,759 Speaker 1: the purpose of game day and actives? 45 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 4: Because you keep your opponent guessing in terms of will 46 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 4: a certain guy play or is a certain guy going 47 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 4: to be active?

I think the two buys, 92 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 4: I think that'll be interesting. I think that would be 93 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 4: one that the union would probably want to argue and 94 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 4: do so effectively. The roster size would be another one 95 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 4: that I'd want to argue. 96 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 3: But there's going to be eighteen games. 97 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 4: There'll be two preseason games, and there'll be a game 98 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 4: outside this country every single week of the season coming 99 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 4: soon to you. 100 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 5: Well, don't forget, do not forget. We have not increased 101 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 5: players pay. We just split it up when they added 102 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 5: the seventeenth game, we just split it up into another 103 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 5: little portion of it. And that's and so now you 104 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 5: have to answer the questions of eighteen games. If you 105 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 5: already have a contract, how are we going to adjust this. 106 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 3: It's going to be one eighteenth Well? No, well, and 107 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 3: that's the thing. 108 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 5: I don't think players aren't going to go for you 109 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 5: added two games and you're still trying to pay me 110 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,160 Speaker 5: the same as well sixteen. 111 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 3: No, you're right. 112 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 4: So I think they will increase players salaries based on 113 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 4: their per game breakout of the existing contract. 114 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, that will be interested to see. But when it 115 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 5: comes to eighteen mm hmm, that's just so much on 116 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 5: your body, you pretty much you kind of to Ryan's point, 117 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 5: you do have to make more people available every week 118 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 5: the week, just because we barely have enough like to 119 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 5: make it through at first sixteen games. Now you want 120 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 5: the same amount of people to make it through seventeen games. 121 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 5: And now we're coming about adding another game. So I'm 122 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 5: not saying necessarily all fifty three, but obviously I would 123 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 5: love that, but I think that you would have to 124 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 5: increase in somewhat to maybe fifty or at least to 125 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 5: make it that players will be able to make it through. Now, 126 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 5: I think the biggest question you agreeing with me? I 127 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 5: think the biggest question. 128 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 4: He didn't say they're going to be fifty three players 129 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 4: in the active roster though idea. 130 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 5: But the biggest question is going to be where's the 131 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 5: union stands. 132 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 4: I didn't say it wasn't a good idea. You act 133 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 4: like it's going to happen. Yeah, meant you had a 134 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 4: good idea before. 135 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 3: That doesn't. 136 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 4: Hell, I've had plenty around here, even I've had plenty 137 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:07,679 Speaker 4: of good ideas that none of them happened. 138 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,679 Speaker 5: But I think the biggest thing is where's the union 139 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 5: going to stand in this? What? What is obviously the 140 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 5: eighteenth game is a good what are we what are 141 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 5: we going to get in return for that? And I 142 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 5: think obviously with the dumpster fire of the last CBA, 143 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 5: we have a lot of questions that need to be 144 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 5: answered before we even get to that eighteenth game. 145 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 4: You need stuff, you know, damn Goodwell, the players are 146 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 4: not going to be unified enough to get any of 147 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 4: your questions answer. 148 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 5: You're going to believe because even though last time we 149 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 5: had over five hundred players not even vote for the 150 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 5: CBA I've been you know, obviously as being the Cleveland 151 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 5: Brown's Union Rep. I've done my part in trying to 152 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 5: educate every single person in locker room, and I hope 153 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 5: every other union rep is doing that too, because we 154 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 5: have more power than when we think the issue is 155 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 5: were so splintered that the owners know. 156 00:06:59,080 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 3: Is that going to change? 157 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 5: Because I believe it's going to change because now it's 158 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 5: more information. It's it's more education that has been happening 159 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 5: with players about this is the way they do it, 160 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 5: bruh is. Everyone does not realize that they're going to 161 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 5: be a former player. So what they do is they 162 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 5: keep trying to take benefits away from former players because 163 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 5: it's not affecting us. 164 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 4: Right at this moment, you're speaking like to one of 165 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 4: those former players, here's the problem, and it was a 166 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 4: problem back when I played, even though it was for 167 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 4: a hell of a lot less money. Guys can say, Okay, 168 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 4: we're going to be unified in the Players Association and 169 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 4: we're going to hold tight. Here's what we want. First 170 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 4: of all, the Players Union hierarchy, from time to time, 171 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 4: they just get bought out. They get bought out, and 172 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 4: that's happened when I say bought out. I mean, there 173 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 4: are things that the owner's side will stress to the 174 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 4: hierarchy of the players side that will make sense. And 175 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 4: there's inducements, I believe, and so, but you can't get 176 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 4: seventeen hundred players well, and I get that, and that 177 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 4: was an issue lacking. You can't get them to agree, 178 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 4: you can't, but you can at least try to make 179 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 4: them understand that yes, that's yeah. The whole biggest thing 180 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 4: was weed. That is so stupid, we can't you smoke 181 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 4: is the dumbest And that was like one of the 182 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 4: bargaining chips. That's that's either even even further proof we agree. 183 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 5: But then it was like that, and it was trying 184 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 5: to raise the rookie minimum to and but what they 185 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 5: then you're just you're hurting yourself later in life? 186 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 4: How many how many of the seventeen hundred current players, again, 187 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 4: because I went through two workstoppages as a player, how 188 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 4: many of the current seventeen hundred work of NFL players 189 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 4: in your mind have enough money allocated that if they 190 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 4: had to not play for a year they could do so, 191 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 4: I'll be two hundred and fifty. 192 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 3: Probably, right, you know what I mean? 193 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 4: And of those two fifty, Like, how many of them 194 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 4: cats are willing to just pick a name? 195 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 3: Pick any name? And ros Okay, well he's about to retire, 196 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 3: let's pick up. 197 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 5: Let's say give me another Dak prescoctt Okay, Yeah, let's 198 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 5: say Dak. 199 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 4: If it comes down to it for these you know, 200 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 4: five or six things, Dak, are you willing to not 201 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 4: play this year and forfeit fifty or sixty million dollars? 202 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 3: But that's what they do. They take care of the 203 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 3: quarterbacks who are the things because they don't ever have 204 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 3: to get involved in this year. I'm making my point. 205 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 2: That's why I'm never going to work. 206 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 5: The biggest thing though, And what we tried to do 207 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 5: last time, we tried to come up with a fund 208 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 5: and we had it. We had it too, We had 209 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 5: a fund and we didn't even make it. 210 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: There. 211 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 3: I was telling people to prepare for a stumpage. Yeah, 212 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 3: you know, let me go on the other end of 213 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 3: the spectrum. 214 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 4: Let's go from the top, let's go to the bottom, 215 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 4: like uh, college undrafted, college free agent made? Listen, pick 216 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 4: a team made the Jaguars. Okay got one year and 217 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 4: so his his deal. I'm not even sure what undrafted 218 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 4: college free agents. I think nine hundred thousand that. 219 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 3: Drafted college free agents make nine grand. 220 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 5: Richie, I think the Roochie minimum now is about like four. 221 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 5: It was four to twenty five when I came in. 222 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 5: It's like nine hundred thousand. 223 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 4: Now, please don't tell me that the rookie minimum is 224 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 4: like nine hundred thousand. 225 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: I don't think that's right. I mean, good for the 226 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 3: players if. 227 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 6: It is a damn, Oh my lord, we gotta say that, Oh, 228 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 6: good for those guys, but damn. 229 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 3: So let me ask you this undrafted college free agent 230 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 3: all right, last year, right three, but now. 231 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 4: Made okay, made nine hundred thousand, didn't get drafted. He's 232 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 4: got another two years left. He's gonna make a million 233 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 4: dollars this year. Made nine hundred last year. Now, all 234 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 4: of a sudden, we're saying, amen, we got to step aside. Now, 235 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 4: we got to be willing to forfeit this year. He's 236 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: gonna last for about two weeks, and he's gonna say, hey, man, listen, 237 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 4: I've got a wife, I've got three kids, i got 238 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 4: two brothers, my mom and dad. I've took care of 239 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 4: my aunt and uncle. That's how because they were doing 240 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 4: that we had a first round draft choice in nineteen 241 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 4: Workstoppings was an eighty two. 242 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 3: Nineteen eighty two first round pick. 243 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 4: We did the same thing, right We said, hey, listen, 244 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 4: we're gonna put money aside. We will help. Three weeks 245 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 4: into the workstop Is, he's like, hey, I got to 246 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 4: go back in. We're like, listen, you're not going back in. 247 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 4: We will front you money. 248 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 3: Will take. 249 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 4: This is a first round draft choice. Like two weeks 250 00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 4: later five he had four kids. Five weeks later he 251 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 4: crosses picking. 252 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 5: One but nil. And this is why we can talk 253 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 5: about the positives in IL. A lot of these guys 254 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 5: making more money in college, not a lot, not that college, 255 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 5: not a lot, but like a good amount, are at 256 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 5: least making some type of money in college where when 257 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 5: they come to the NFL, that's not the only money 258 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:22,839 Speaker 5: they had. 259 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 4: The same big money dudes in college making the nil 260 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 4: or the same cats that we were talking about on 261 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,719 Speaker 4: the first observation making the fifty million a. 262 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 5: Year, not necessarily because I look at it like Usher 263 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 5: Door Sanders, who made a bunch of money in IL. 264 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 5: It's a fit round pick. Right now. We're not gonna 265 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 5: talk about family, you know, anything like that. We're talking 266 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 5: about like a situation like that where there are college quarterbacks, 267 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 5: college receivers, college gbs that don't necessarily have the speed 268 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 5: or know they were great college players, but we all 269 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 5: know necessarily that they weren't going to be stars. But 270 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 5: they made ten million in college, or they made five million. 271 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 5: Now it's a different story. These when I came out, 272 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 5: had had negative twenty bucks in my account, you know 273 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 5: what I mean, And that's it was no money coming 274 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 5: in for us in college. Now these guys are getting paid. 275 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 5: Now we at least stand a better shot. Before I 276 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 5: agree with is that now I don't think necessarily now 277 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 5: unity is such a hard, hard thing to do with 278 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 5: seventeen hundred people, but I think it can be a 279 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 5: little closer to reality with the introduction of in IL 280 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,839 Speaker 5: and these guys making money in college, so that they're 281 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 5: not begging the NFL, you know, for money when they 282 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 5: come up. 283 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: But that's assuming that INIL has worked well for everybody, 284 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: because it hasn't. There are players, low low end players 285 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 1: that don't make an IL money and they are getting 286 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 1: a college free agent opportunity. They're signing as a UDFA 287 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: nine hundred thousand dollars is more money than they've ever seen. So, 288 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: but you got to convince them to nine hundred thousand dollars. Yeah, 289 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: and it is a lot of money. 290 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 5: You're hearing it like one time, you know, you're going 291 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 5: there for one year, nine hundred thousand dollars. We stick 292 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 5: together and we can actually get some stuff done. And 293 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 5: then now you can talk about being on the ranks 294 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 5: of the NBA or the MLB, because obviously the answer is. 295 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 4: Going to be, hey, man, listen, og love you and 296 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 4: all that I'm going in. 297 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 2: That's right. 298 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, But I think about the players that we have 299 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 5: in Cleveland, the ones that came up. Obviously, the ones 300 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 5: from smaller schools weren't making any money, so those will 301 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 5: be the first ones. But I'm telling you that's where 302 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 5: now that that fund actually will help because more people 303 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 5: actually do have money now, so you can actually put 304 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 5: money into kids pockets so that they don't cross the 305 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 5: picket line and actually stick with their brothers and we 306 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 5: actually get something done. It can work, It can work. 307 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna lose faith to my fellow man. Let it, 308 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 5: let me do it. 309 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 3: I know. Well, yeah, because. 310 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 5: I remember I was at Top Golf a couple of 311 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 5: years ago, and I got pulled into a former NFL 312 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 5: player meeting because I just happened to be there and 313 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 5: I was the union rep. And their biggest thing, the 314 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 5: former players biggest thing, is that we keep losing benefits. 315 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 5: You know, you know what I mean, They keep taking 316 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 5: benefits and that's how they get you. They dangle it 317 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 5: in front of the young players, be like here, you know, 318 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 5: nine hundred thousand dollars minimum, damn or And then they're 319 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 5: not telling you though, you know, now you need to 320 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 5: play two more years, get your four and one kg. 321 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 5: Now you need to you know, they're making it harder 322 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 5: for you after. 323 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 4: So why is that You're absolutely right? Why is that 324 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 4: going to change this time? 325 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 3: Because I just. 326 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 5: Believe because one of the kids have a little bit 327 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 5: of extra money in their pocket. But two, it's the 328 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 5: it's the talk of we're all going to be former players. 329 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 5: At one point, they frame it that certain type of way. 330 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 4: He sinks into you, yeah, this year, next year, what 331 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 4: sooner than later? A former player. I didn't sink into 332 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 4: the rookie.
