That's a base 6 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 2: hit and that'll be the first run of the game 7 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 2: for the Giants. Or Rise comes in to score. It's 8 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 2: three to one and Bailey gets word from the dugout 9 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 2: that he's being pulled back. 10 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I see how it is. 11 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 4: Harrison Bater did get the loan RBI yesterday, but in 12 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 4: our famous dongpool, he also got Jacob a good forty 13 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 4: bucks by hitting the first home run of the season. 14 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 4: See the way it works, Scruge is that if there's 15 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 4: no home run like there was yesterday, then all the 16 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 4: money rolls over into. 17 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 3: The next day of the Giants. I don't know if 18 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:50,599 Speaker 3: we knew this. 19 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 4: They had kind of a slow offensive start there in 20 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 4: that first series. 21 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 3: You haven't had a home run at Oracles. 22 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 4: So when Harrison Bater finally checked that box and broke 23 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,720 Speaker 4: the ice, that was a lot of money going into 24 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 4: Jacob's pocket. 25 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 3: So he's feeling pretty good about it. 26 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 5: Jacob Maui retirement fund. Are you buying property? I mean, 27 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 5: what kind of windfall did we come into? 28 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 6: Should we are? Their tax ramifications? 29 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 3: Playing kapaaloua next week, Kruge, let's go. I was gonna 30 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 3: say yeah. 31 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 5: Teeing off as we speak, and the plantation Thank you. 32 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 4: Giants lose at seven to one, although the final score 33 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 4: probably didn't tell the story of how close it was, 34 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 4: for the most part, got away from them in the 35 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 4: eighth inning, with Jose Boutsou only retiring one out of 36 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,040 Speaker 4: eight batters he faced, but three to one, and Adrian 37 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 4: Hauser in his first start, I mean, for a number 38 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 4: five starter, looked very competent out there. He didn't have 39 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,119 Speaker 4: an earned run on the first two that the Padres scored, 40 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 4: only went with one in the end when all of 41 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 4: a sudden done was hitting ninety six on the fastball. 42 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 4: And so as far as going through this rotation for 43 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 4: the first time, I mean, Logan Webb's been the one 44 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 4: who we have the early concerns about, and I have 45 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 4: no doubts that he's going to be able to figure 46 00:01:58,760 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 4: it out. 47 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 3: And you know, Robbie looked really good. 48 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 4: Land and Roup was dominant and as good as I've 49 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 4: ever seen him in a start and so yeah, good 50 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 4: to see Adrian Hauser. And we're gonna get some Tyler 51 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 4: Mallley coming up again, who I thought was pretty solid 52 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 4: for the most part, given that he was on a 53 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 4: pitch count. Let's go back out. Oh we don't have 54 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 4: a call, so eightaway, k and b are. If we 55 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 4: missed you, you can give us a call back. We'll 56 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 4: get into some big storylines on all this coming up 57 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 4: in a. 58 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 3: Bit, but just a big theme here. I throw you 59 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 3: catch and. 60 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 4: Yeah again, I'll say it as I did about an 61 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 4: hour ago. I like that from Matt Chapman. 62 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 3: I don't think like, if you're gonna do something that 63 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 3: feels like an emotional outburst and it feels like show 64 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 3: and anything that's kind of phony or inauthentic, that's always 65 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 3: easy to sniff out. Matt Chapman is not a hot 66 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 3: headed guy. I don't think that was a hot headed reaction. 67 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 4: Like the reason it became a thing, Krug was because 68 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 4: we can all riplead sorry lip read and see what 69 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 4: he was saying on the street. It wasn't because he 70 00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 4: was jumping up and down and doing the Drew God 71 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 4: Olbert choke up on Casey Schmidt and we saw those 72 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 4: two really get into it. He just said, hey, man, 73 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 4: catch the f and ball. We got to clean this 74 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 4: up early in the season. These games count. 75 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, it's you know, I mean, I'm sure 76 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 5: he wished he hadn't said it because people the might 77 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 5: you know, the the TV images are everything's everything's in 78 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 5: high death man, we can see it all. 79 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 6: Uh, so be careful. 80 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 5: You know this is probably not a not a story 81 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 5: in yesterr year, but now that the images are so 82 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 5: clear and we get a chance to see him literally 83 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 5: say to uh Schmid, you know, basically do your job. 84 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 5: It's it's easy to relate to. But I mean, it 85 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 5: would be like I was joking with Jacob at the commercial. 86 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 5: I was saying, you know, it would be funny if 87 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 5: had some silver said hey Jacob, you know, go to 88 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 5: f and break already. 89 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 6: You know what I mean. It's like, I mean, it's it's. 90 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 5: Kind of it kind of I don't know, it's like 91 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 5: in a way, it's it's the way that men communicate 92 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 5: with each other. 93 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 6: We're very direct where sometimes uh. 94 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 5: You know that and and some people view that as dysfunction, 95 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 5: But I actually think that's very functional. I think the 96 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 5: football world is. You know, I really enjoy covering the Niners. 97 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 5: And I'll tell you one thing is that Shanahan is real. 98 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 5: And you know he's coaching Chris Caseric when he's telling 99 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 5: Alfred Collins how to play, you know, he's not like, hey, Alfred, 100 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 5: could you come over here for a second. 101 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 6: I have a thought I'd like to share with you. 102 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 5: You know, He's like, do it not not. 103 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 6: Heven? 104 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 5: You know, So, I mean, it's just the way it is, 105 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 5: and it's not personal. Alfred's not sitting there going ah. 106 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 5: Chris doesn't like me, no going, Chris loves me, Chris. 107 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 5: Chris cares about me getting better. He's putting everything he's 108 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 5: got into me because he wants to see me get better. 109 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 5: So it's just the different culture is different. You know, 110 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 5: things that you cannot do at your place of work, 111 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 5: they can't do it theirs. And and I don't have 112 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 5: any bad feelings about Chapman and what he said there. 113 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 5: And I guess you'd have to ask Casey. 114 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 6: You know, the same thing that could be said by. 115 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 5: You might not be a problem, but if it's said 116 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 5: by somebody else could be a major problem. So you know, 117 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 5: it's these things are not you know, it's not always 118 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 5: readily apparent what the protocol is. 119 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 4: Let's just say not to get overlay technical on everyone here, 120 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 4: but Justice Delos Santos said the Santa Se Mercury new 121 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 4: is one of our favorite guys to talk to throughout 122 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 4: the season. Put out there that the MLB announced the 123 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 4: scoring change from the game yesterday, So Casey Schmidt was 124 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 4: dinged for that first inning era yesterday. The ball on 125 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 4: the Machado grounder that's now been reassigned to Matt Chapman. 126 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 3: Again, we're moving past it. 127 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 4: I don't think it's going to cause any further riff, 128 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 4: but if you want to get technical about it, it 129 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 4: now is officially a Matt Chapman air. 130 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 6: There you go, Well, you know who, Let's just say this. 131 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 5: When I was in the Canadian Football League and we 132 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 5: were watching film, if it was like the dB or 133 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 5: the linebacker's fault, man, I would literally sometimes you would 134 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 5: see coaches fighting over it was the DB's fault, it 135 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 5: was the linebacker's fault. So, I mean this means everything 136 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 5: to these guys. So, and you know, tempers run hot. 137 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 5: We'll see maybe we haven't seen the last of this, 138 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 5: I think. 139 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 4: There's got to be a stat for interceptions with quarterbacks 140 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 4: because that really plays into contracts. 141 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 3: If it's not their fault. 142 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 4: We gotta have like asterisk interceptions, like you know Mac 143 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 4: Jones throwing one immediately in Tampa Bay, but Kendrick Bourne 144 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 4: is the one that messed up the play, or if 145 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 4: it just goes right off of somebody's hand, it's like 146 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 4: that's yeap for a quarterback when you're looking at uh, 147 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 4: do you trade for them? 148 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 3: Do you sign them? How much money are they worth? 149 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 4: Like those things have real ramifications to the point where 150 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 4: that's why ended the half hail Mary's dudes are chucking 151 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 4: it out of the back of the end zone. 152 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 6: How about this? 153 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 5: I want love a stat interceptions on you know who, 154 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 5: who was the intended receiver? I want to know who 155 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 5: the intended receiver was. Does brock Perty throw more interceptions 156 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 5: on passes intended for Ricky Pearsall or does he throw 157 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 5: more interceptions on passes intended for June One Jennings. 158 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 6: I want to know that stat. 159 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 4: Well, actually I know that by far the leader for 160 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 4: the Niners last year was Jennings, But I think in 161 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 4: terms of his mistakes. I know he had one that 162 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 4: he completely bobbled up in the air. Maybe that was 163 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 4: the Atlanta Sunday Night game sometime early to mid season. 164 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 4: But a lot of that is also because Jennings is 165 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 4: a guy with strong hands who could catch it in 166 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 4: tight windows and not really a separator. Oh and on 167 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 4: top of that, I mean it was really him and 168 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 4: Christian McCaffrey that were the most readily available for the 169 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 4: course of the season. 170 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 5: But I think it does reveal also if your receiver 171 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 5: doesn't fight, you know, if he doesn't fight for the ball. 172 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 5: You know, the one thing if you talk to any 173 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 5: quarterback and you want and he's talking about his receivers 174 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 5: and he's and he's you know, if you talk about 175 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 5: a quarterback who says he likes a receiver, he'll be like, 176 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 5: oh yeah, man, I love that guy. 177 00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 6: He'll go get it for you. 178 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 5: That's the phrase that you hear a lot from quarterbacks. 179 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 5: Oh I love jj Mann, He'll go get it for you. 180 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 5: I was talking to David Archer, the former Falcon quarterback 181 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 5: is now the Falcon cover color analyst, and he was 182 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 5: using that term, he'll go get it for you, man, 183 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 5: I love this receiver. He'll go get it for you. So, 184 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 5: I mean the ball get You throw a lot of 185 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 5: fifty to fifty balls. 186 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 3: In the NFL. 187 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 6: You need receivers that are as they say, gonna go 188 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 6: get it for you. 189 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 4: And you know that's why I like Mike Evans so much. 190 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 4: You think you can win a fifty to fifty ball 191 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 4: when you get down on the goal line. Yeah, I'll 192 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 4: take that bet many, many, many times. How about Jake 193 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 4: Tong this week one last week last year up in Seattle? 194 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 4: What would we see there with the game on the line, 195 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 4: He went and got that ball. That thing was a 196 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 4: floating duck and he just picked it out of the sky. 197 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 4: That was a great play by Jake Tonjas So I 198 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 4: don't know. Yeah, the interceptions all go on the quarterback, 199 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 4: but yes, you. 200 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 5: Know we see receivers that give nominal effort when the 201 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 5: ball they don't think they're gonna at the completion. Then 202 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 5: we see other guys who will fight to make that 203 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 5: an incompletion as hard as they fought to make it 204 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 5: a completion. 205 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 6: And those are the guys that you want. 206 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 3: Let's go to the phones. 207 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 4: Ben is in Hayward wants the weigh in on Chapman 208 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 4: and Schmidt Diden talking a lot about that the first 209 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 4: ninety minutes today. 210 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 7: What's up, Ben, Yeah, hey guys, you know, I kind 211 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 7: of disagree. I think I think that doesn't show very 212 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 7: good leadership. If Chapman is a leader, how does the 213 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 7: leader say, you know, catch the freaking ball. A leader 214 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 7: to me would say, hey, come on, get your head 215 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 7: in the game, or or come on, you can you 216 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,599 Speaker 7: can do better than that, come on, let's go, you know, 217 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 7: but but catch the freaking ball. I mean that to 218 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 7: me is just a put down, and that doesn't motivate me. 219 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 7: That wouldn't motivate me. It's like, oh now, now I'm nervous, right, 220 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 7: I don't know. 221 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 5: That's just me. But to me, it's a different form 222 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 5: of Yeah, I hear you. It's a different form of motivation, 223 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 5: for sure. It's a very jocular way of motivating somebody, 224 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 5: as opposed to, hey, man, next one, next one, you 225 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 5: got it, you got it? 226 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 6: You know, but you know what this you know, I. 227 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 5: Coach little league. In little league, that's what you would do. 228 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 5: You'd be like, hey, Jimmy, get it next time. Huh right, 229 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 5: you got that? You make that play every time you 230 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 5: have to boost their confidence because they don't have any. 231 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 6: But when with pros, they're all they are. 232 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 5: They got nothing but confidence, and sometimes they do need 233 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 5: to be torn down a little bit. 234 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 6: I don't know. 235 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 5: I hear what you're saying, though he is the VET, 236 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 5: but we don't know their relationship. And I'll say this, 237 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 5: Casey's a really easy going dude from San Diego. I 238 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 5: bet you you know he probably would say something like amen, 239 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 5: you know. I mean, it's like I bet you would 240 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 5: endorse the rippage. 241 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 6: But maybe I'm wrong. 242 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 4: No, I kind of with your krug, Like if it 243 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 4: was Luisa Ries as a newer teammate, we might be 244 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 4: a little bit more wary of all of it. 245 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 3: But I think in general I. 246 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 4: Am in favor of how Chatman handle the situation. And 247 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 4: I get what Ben's saying. Maybe the verbiage itself didn't 248 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 4: need to be said like that. But if Casey said 249 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 4: it's all good and he needs to make those plays 250 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 4: and Chapman understands that it was a heat of the moment, 251 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 4: I want my guys to. 252 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 3: Be passionate about winning as well. 253 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 4: So if he does this tomorrow or tonight, I might 254 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 4: be like, Hi, Chappie, like, let's take an eat breath. 255 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 4: But if this is one time for a guy that's 256 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 4: not really a hothead, I mean, you gotta hold your 257 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,199 Speaker 4: guys accountable, and everyone has different ways of showing that. 258 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 1: Uh. 259 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 4: Then again, it's a fair point that, like, not every 260 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 4: outburst is treated equally. When Deebo Samuel had the infamous 261 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 4: lock in in the Tampa Bay game, like that was 262 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 4: pretty negatively received, and I was also on the end 263 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 4: of like, Deebo, you can't be doing that. We're like 264 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 4: shoving your long snapper and kicker. 265 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, I mean that was bad too, But once again, 266 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 5: Shanahan backed debo, you know, and and and then and 267 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 5: they and who's you know who's uh was I mean 268 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 5: they're both not on the team anymore. 269 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 6: But I mean, you know, I think that that was 270 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 6: pretty much it for good old Tabor Pepper. 271 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 5: But yeah, I mean that wasn't I wasn't too excited 272 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 5: about Deebo doing that either, because bro, you ain't you know, 273 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 5: you ain't going that good. I think that was my 274 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 5: take at the time. It's like, you know, Deebo, you 275 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 5: ain't going that good. You know, if you're Jerry Rice 276 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 5: and you're on top of the world and Okay, you 277 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 5: know what you're Jerry Rice, You're on top of the world. 278 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 6: We just got to take it. 279 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 5: But when you're dropping passes and you know, not looking 280 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 5: that good, and you know what you're you ain't going 281 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 5: that good, bro, And and maybe you should stay out 282 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 5: of his face. Shanahan back Debo on that one, Deebo. 283 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 5: The players seem to. 284 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 6: Think that Deebo was challenging the guy, I don't know, 285 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 6: to be better. 286 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 5: You know, once again, you know, it's it's hard for 287 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 5: us to you know, take our what, you know, the 288 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 5: glimpses that we see, because that's what we're getting.

In baseball now we're 325 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 4: all of a sudden having issues, and I gotta say, 326 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 4: ABS is gonna be fantastic to watch how it evolves 327 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 4: over the course of a season, how is used in 328 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 4: the playoffs. 329 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 3: I'm a big fan so. 330 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 4: Far, and kind of seeing the game within the game 331 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 4: being played, guys not wanting to use challenges. Tony Vaitelo 332 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 4: talked about there's attentiveness to the team going on right now, 333 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 4: but at the same time, it's a way that you 334 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 4: can decide a game. It's a way that you'd love 335 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 4: to have in the eighth or ninth inning. And then 336 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 4: even on nights like the Giants first win, Fernando Tatis, 337 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 4: they caught a break because he was called for strike 338 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 4: two when Ryan Walker very well threw that ball high 339 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 4: up in the zone and it could have been called 340 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 4: a ball. So cebe Buckner and all the umps right 341 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 4: now under fire. US technology is leading. 342 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 5: The way, yeah, and it's not going away anytime soon, 343 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 5: and there's gonna be somebody that has a really, really 344 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 5: bad night at some point. But you know what bottom 345 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 5: line is, everybody's got to be accountable, and the umpires 346 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 5: largely for you, they really are not accountable publicly. There's 347 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 5: no postgame presser where the umps have to answer questions. 348 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 5: They do now get evaluated internally, and that's probably a 349 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 5: very good thing, and this is just now kind of 350 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 5: an external part of the game. But yeah, it's changed 351 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 5: their job description overnight and added a whole lot of 352 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 5: stress to their world. 353 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 6: I'm sure what I love. 354 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 4: About ABS more than anything is that it's quick and 355 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 4: it's efficient. Because I know you and I did the 356 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 4: whole replay review discussion when with the WBC was going on, 357 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 4: and we talk about var and soccer and you talk 358 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 4: about challenges and now March madness, you got these last 359 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: two minute reviews. Now what point do you just draw 360 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 4: the line and let the gameplay out as is? You 361 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 4: still get the human element with ABS, you get another 362 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 4: layer to the game that's fun to watch, but you 363 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 4: also have some accountability that more than anything. It's quick 364 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 4: and the fast resolution on whether it's a ball or 365 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 4: a strike. That is what has made it such a 366 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 4: success to me. 367 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean there's no challenge. 368 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 5: I mean there is a challenge system, but it's very 369 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 5: very it's the streamlined, it's easy to understand. It's quickly 370 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 5: being introduced and adopted by the players. It seems to be, 371 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 5: you know, anything that can be quick and get the 372 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 5: right of outcome. 373 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 6: I think we're all for all. 374 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 4: Right, let's go over to number two. The Warriors lost 375 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 4: to the San Antonio Spurs last night. Horrendous start, then 376 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 4: they kind of got back in it, and then as expected, 377 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 4: this young Spurs team who's trying to contend for a title, 378 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 4: ended up running away with that one. This was not 379 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 4: an April Fool's lineup in the sense that it was fake. 380 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 4: It was an April Fools level lineup. Reading the injury report, 381 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 4: when you learn that the Warriors were without christapsporzingis Gie 382 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 4: Santos to Anthony Melton, Quentin posts Al Horford, Gary Payton 383 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 4: the second and of course Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler and 384 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 4: Moses Moody last night. 385 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 3: So you're thinking, can you just give me the report 386 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 3: of who did play? 387 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, among those was Malifi Leons, who also probably should 388 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 4: have been out because of his sprained right wrist. Dude 389 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 4: was shooting his free throws left handed. Take a listen 390 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 4: to this SoundBite. 391 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,959 Speaker 3: Yeah you could go Rick Perry, go under arm? How 392 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 3: many fans No, he's not left handed? 393 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 6: Look at the warrior bitch. That is awesome. 394 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 3: But Jepski realized it. That's big respect even Joe Lego Rega. 395 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 5: Guys, he's out there gamely playing with a very injured 396 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 5: right wrist, hug shooting his free throws left me and 397 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 5: he wouldn't be able to get it. 398 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 3: Darren. 399 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 6: Oh, and he got the steel. 400 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 3: He's going back to the left hand. He doesn't get 401 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 3: the fowl that would ricochet off Nate. What just how 402 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 3: you doing it off of Nate's foot right to your 403 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 3: seventh It worked out and he gets the steal. 404 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 4: I mean, I mean, you know, Bob, love you, bro, 405 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 4: But when you said, I wonder how many people know 406 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 4: he's not left handed. I think by watching the awkwardness 407 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 4: of the form, you don't have to know much about 408 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 4: malified lyons to understand that. With the tape around his 409 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 4: wrist and the form, Yeah, dude shouldn't have been playing, 410 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 4: but he did, and I admire him for it. 411 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 3: Right, Nate Williams. 412 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 4: You heard as part of that cut played forty seven 413 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 4: minutes last night. That was the most by a Warrior 414 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 4: since Harrison Barnes in twenty fourteen. You had yur seven 415 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 4: the center, and I got my buddy texted me yesterday. 416 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 4: He goes, dude, who is yur seven? And I'm like, honestly, man, 417 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 4: I'm just kind of learning on the fly as we 418 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 4: go to That was a crazy injury report and looks 419 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 4: des aiming for a return on Sunday. They're gonna be 420 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 4: a team that has to win multiple play in games 421 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 4: if they're gonna get into the playoffs. But yeah, that 422 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 4: was the ultimate April Fools lineup, and you had mallified leons, 423 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 4: not as a joke, shooting left handed free throws. 424 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 5: Krug Well, I mean it just shows how, uh, you know, 425 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 5: how how guys dreamed the dream of the NBA and 426 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 5: they'll do anything.

Love the rise of the 467 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 4: young guys, but probably not in the cards to be 468 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 4: in the playoffs this year. All of a sudden, you 469 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 4: look up. They are one point out of a wild 470 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 4: card spot. They are not going down without a fight. 471 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 4: Macklin celebrity two goals to assist and the game winner 472 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 4: from Weenburg last night. 473 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 3: Here's a sample of the sound. 474 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 2: Celibrini down hill a bit, Smith Furlough celebrity calling Florida. 475 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 3: Shot Pierce. 476 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 6: Alex Wentburg. Now to the outside and beat it a bit. 477 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 3: He stays with it. 478 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 6: Put to play, don't split for more.

So I got the stat from the Sports 482 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 4: Radar on the Sharks. They are the first team in 483 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 4: the NHL to have a three game streak or they 484 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 4: score a game winning goal in the final ninety seconds 485 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 4: of regulation. Number one, I'm surprised that nobody's done that before. 486 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 4: But number two, that's quite the turnaround for a team 487 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 4: that didn't know how to properly finish close games last 488 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 4: year and a lot of this time when they've been 489 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,239 Speaker 4: in the rebuild. All of a sudden, man, I mean, 490 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 4: we knew Macklin Celebrini was a superstar. We knew he 491 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 4: was a future MVP or maybe this year's MVP, when 492 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, done in. 493 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 3: This nineteen years old. But you know what this is. 494 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 4: It's that Dylan Thomas famous poem that do not go 495 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 4: gentle into that good night dude. They are not going 496 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 4: out without a raging swing at this thing, whether they 497 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 4: end up in the postseason or not. 498 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 6: Oh, it's an awesome story, man, just the reignition of 499 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 6: this franchise behind this young superstar and when you look 500 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 6: at what he is as a player and potentially what 501 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 6: he is career wise. 502 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 5: Man, it is so exciting. It's exciting, and you know 503 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 5: to see the Sharks kind of rise up. They've had 504 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 5: such a great run and then they kind of, you know, 505 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 5: they just had a they kind of hit a rough 506 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 5: patch and they were down for a number of years, 507 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 5: and the tendance was down, and the seemed like the 508 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 5: pandemic really hit them bad. I mean, I just I 509 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 5: went to a number of games the last couple of 510 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 5: years and it was, you know, the attendance was not great. 511 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 5: And then what this guy has done to reignite the 512 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 5: fire of the fan base so exciting. I mean, it 513 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 5: just now it just feels like it's must sy TV. 514 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 4: He's never not been great, but it looks like he 515 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 4: maybe hit a bit of a wall or a stretch 516 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 4: of fatigue after the Olympics and the emotional and physical 517 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 4: toll that that took in the middle of the season. 518 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 4: Pretty unusual for a mid season break of that magnitude. 519 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 4: Of course, he handled the moment as he always does. 520 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 4: But now we're seeing Macklin just have a little bit 521 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 4: extra gas in the tank. I don't care if they 522 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 4: get swept by the Colorado Avalanche in the first round. 523 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 4: To see this team get that chance to compete in 524 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 4: a playoff series. Hockey's one of those krug where it 525 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 4: doesn't really matter you're seeing as much as it does 526 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,239 Speaker 4: for some other sports. One hot goalie, if you get 527 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 4: a Yaslavaskarov heater or something like that, that changes everything 528 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 4: in the sport. I would love a seven game series 529 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 4: and a chance for the Sharks to do something special. 530 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 6: Oh that's the beauty of it. I mean, it's like anything. 531 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,959 Speaker 6: You get the hot goaltender, you get the right vibe. 532 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 5: Heck, you just get a team that's starting to feel good, 533 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 5: a penalty kill unit that's starting to feel good. 534 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 6: All of a sudden things come together and it can 535 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 6: be very unlikely. 536 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 5: It's the way you play the day you play, for sure, 537 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 5: all right. 538 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 3: Fourth out of five stories. 539 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 4: Kyle Shanahan having a little bit of fun but also 540 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 4: one of those guys that's always locked in and focused 541 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 4: on football, and maybe to a degree little bit petty 542 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 4: because he said, we know the Rams wanted us in Australia, 543 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 4: so we didn't have the Levi South instance. He said, 544 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 4: we requested them to go play us in Mexico City 545 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 4: to make it even and have them leave the country 546 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 4: a second time. Shanahan McVeigh enemy friends. Here's the clip 547 00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 4: on Pro Football Talk. 548 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 3: What for e fact? Because we. 549 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 8: Do right, and let us play the Rams in Mexico 550 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 8: since we got to go out of the country twice 551 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 8: and they requested us. I'm requesting them in Mexico. Oh, 552 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 8: not that that gives us an advantage. It's just fair 553 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 8: to make them go out. 554 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 3: Of the country exactly. 555 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 4: Hey, and I for an eye, this is a team 556 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 4: that you're constantly gonna be chasing. It's a team that 557 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 4: finished above you when all was said and done last year. 558 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 4: It is your counterpart in terms of a genius young 559 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 4: offensive coach. He's got a Super Bowl you don't yet. 560 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 4: And why would you not try to inflict a little 561 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 4: bit of pain on the NFC West. It's not like 562 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 4: they're doing a lot of favors for you anyway. 563 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 6: Yeah, And Mike McDonald's like, yeah, you guys fight it 564 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 6: out and we're gonna slide down the rail and win 565 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 6: this thing going away. Yeah. 566 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 5: No, I yeah, I mean, I I think the Rams 567 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 5: obviously probably I believe Shanahan that he's right that that 568 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 5: the Rams requested the Niners. And if that is indeed 569 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 5: the case, I mean that's just a that's a win 570 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 5: for the Niner fan. That's a win, win for the faithful. 571 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 5: It's a win for the people that spent their money, 572 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 5: got on the bird, went down to so far and 573 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,159 Speaker 5: follow this team. I'll tell you the one thing that 574 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 5: just absolutely amazes me. And I'm not amazed by a 575 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 5: lot at this point, but I'm amazed at the way 576 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:21,719 Speaker 5: the forty Niners travel in twenty twenty six. I mean, 577 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 5: and it's just amazing how many people travel with the 578 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 5: forty nine ers. 579 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 6: I didn't really get it. 580 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 5: I went to New Orleans early in the year, I 581 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 5: went to the to Seattle and Philly in the playoffs. 582 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 6: Thousands and thousands of Niner fans travel to every game. 583 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:40,679 Speaker 6: It's amazing. 584 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 4: Well, faithful, you got thirty eight two hundred and fifty 585 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 4: miles or so to worry about in this upcoming season. 586 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 4: Shanahan's like, yeah, dude, Like it's cool for the league. Like, 587 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 4: am I excited about playing in Australia other pros? Yeah, 588 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 4: not really, dude. I'm just trying to go out there 589 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 4: and win a game against the Rams. That's all he's 590 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 4: thinking about. And as you would want your coach of 591 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,719 Speaker 4: your football team to do before we get to our 592 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 4: fifth one bonus story. You know, Kirk Cousins is third 593 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 4: all time in career earnings for a quarterback, and I 594 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 4: understand that the money always goes up, the market's always resetting, 595 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 4: but he's third. Matthew Stafford it number one, four hundred 596 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 4: eight million, Aaron Rodgers number two, three hundred and ninety 597 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 4: five million. Kirk Cousins now with the Raiders three hundred 598 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 4: and forty one million dollars in career earnings, legendary businessman? 599 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 6: Should I read that correct? That this is like the 600 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 6: eleventh year in a row that Kirk cousins entire contracts 601 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 6: been guaranteed, or is it seventh? I forget what it is. 602 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 5: It's either seventh or eleventh, but either way, fully guaranteed 603 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 5: contracts are the rarest of rare in the NFL, and 604 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 5: this guy's had his, basically his entire career guaranteed, and. 605 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 4: As everybody would say, is the natural fit. Fernando Mendoza 606 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 4: and Kirk Cousins the two guys in the quarterback room 607 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 4: in the city of Las Vegas, just because of course. 608 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 5: Well that's Kirk Cousins is a Raider today and we 609 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 5: saw Clint Kubiak say yesterday the ideal scenario is for 610 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 5: Mendoza to not have to start right away. So I 611 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 5: think if you're a Fernando Mendoza fan, and there's a 612 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 5: lot of them here in the base since he played 613 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 5: at Cal and you know, I think it's a great day. 614 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 6: I really do. Kirk Cousins is a great teacher. Somebody 615 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 6: needs to take those lumps. This Raiders offensive. 616 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 5: Line from guard, center and guard is problematic, okay, So 617 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 5: I think they could be jail break on whoever plays quarterback. 618 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 5: So I think this is a good day for the 619 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 5: Mendoza family to have Cousins shielding him, at least initially. 620 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 4: Well, let's get a little reset on the clock. I'll 621 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 4: give you my last story when we come on back. 622 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 4: It does relate to the NFL, and we will talk 623 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 4: a little forty nine Ers draft is three weeks from today. 624 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 4: Todd Husack's going to be joining us coming up toward 625 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 4: the end of the show around one point thirty, and 626 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 4: we got a Niners nightly guy, Krueger in with me, 627 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 4: So you know, we got to talk a little bit 628 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 4: of ball. 629 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 3: We'll do that next on the Sports Leader. 630 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 4: That's right, join us on YouTube or Twitch, or the 631 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 4: Golden State Lumbers showroom text line or the phone lines 632 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 4: at eight oh eight K and B are. 633 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 3: Stay tuned for our contest giveaway.

There's no reason not to. 648 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 4: So. I had the five big storylines. I got to 649 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 4: four of them, and then the last one. I wanted 650 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 4: to actually take the time out in between because we 651 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 4: were having a lot of fun with the first ones 652 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 4: and this last one was not in the same category 653 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 4: of humor. It was a more serious one, but it 654 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 4: was pukin Akua checking into rehab, which we learned yesterday, 655 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 4: and that was one of those where, because yesterday was 656 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 4: April first, you had to really verify that and wait 657 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 4: till I saw a clip of Mike Garafalo, Steve Weisch 658 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 4: the Insiders talking about that, and it is a confirmed 659 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 4: situation about the Rams star wide receiver, and I guess 660 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 4: he has been in rehab for a little. 661 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 3: Bit of time right now. 662 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 4: But this is one of those where just first and foremost, 663 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 4: anybody out there who was putting in steps to get 664 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 4: help should never be criticized for doing so. Pukin Akua 665 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 4: is someone who is a phenomenal player, that is no secret. 666 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 4: But then he started to have instances a little bit 667 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 4: later in the season, particularly off the field, where wasn't 668 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 4: making the best choices with the people he was hanging 669 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 4: out with or trying to bring into the facility some 670 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,479 Speaker 4: of the acts that were going on online. And as 671 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 4: we talked about with Matt Chapman and the fact that 672 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 4: it's a talking point when he said catch the f 673 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 4: and ball, well, that's because we live in a world 674 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,680 Speaker 4: in which everything is so visible and it can spread 675 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 4: pretty quickly in this digital age, for better or for worse. 676 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 4: So Puka is someone who then continued to go into 677 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 4: the off season and he had these allegations about making 678 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 4: anti Semitic comments and then biting into somebody. He is 679 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 4: someone who seemed to be making a series of poor decisions. 680 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 4: I don't know the backstory as to why he is 681 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 4: going into rehab or maybe what specifically for, but the 682 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 4: fact that he is going and getting help, this is 683 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 4: someone I would like the forty nine ers to beat 684 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 4: twice a year with. 685 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 3: The La Rams. 686 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 4: As much as we can have fun with different storylines 687 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 4: or criticize people for making bad decisions, the fact that 688 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 4: Puka and Akua is getting help again, that's something that 689 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 4: should never be criticized. And I hope that just as 690 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 4: a human being, I hope he can find his way 691 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 4: when it's got to be tough to go from a 692 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 4: fifth round pick out of BYU and a relatively kind 693 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 4: of unknown underdog into a superstar in Los Angeles that quickly. 694 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 4: As someone who is around his age, it is hard 695 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 4: to be put into a spotlight. And I'm a much much, 696 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 4: much lesser degree than Pukaa Kua. All of a sudden, 697 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 4: when you're at an age where you got social media 698 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 4: and people saying things all around you, and when they 699 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 4: do it through a screen, it's more often something that's 700 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 4: not so kind rather than something that's supportive. So I 701 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 4: hope that he ends up, you know, being good for 702 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 4: OTA's training camp and could be a good teammate and 703 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 4: a good friend and family member and all that. But yeah, 704 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 4: it was a series of kind of peculiar storylines that 705 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 4: were adding up Krug, and then yesterday was that tipping 706 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:33,719 Speaker 4: point into something a little bit more serious. 707 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 6: Maybe he just needs to call Fred Warner his bestie, 708 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 6: you know, the commercialstie and their besties, right or whatever. 709 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 6: I don't know, you know, it's funny. 710 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 5: You know, these are young guys and I'm not gonna 711 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 5: excuse behave you know, any kind of criminal behavior ever. 712 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 5: But you know, as somebody I've lived a little, as 713 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 5: Gary used to say, you know, from sitting there next 714 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 5: to him. But you know, when you have adult children 715 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 5: and you and you have lived a little and you 716 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 5: just realize that, you know, it's you know, things happen, 717 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 5: and you know, people grow up in different it's you know, 718 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 5: sometimes people grow up really at a young age. 719 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 6: Sometimes you know, sometimes it's unfortunate. 720 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,640 Speaker 5: Sometimes they don't grow up until something happens to them 721 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 5: in life and there's something changes the way they view 722 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 5: the world and everybody's a little different. 723 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 6: And so hopefully Pooka gets help. 724 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 5: And he seems like a fun, loving guy, but the 725 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 5: reality of his situation is that a woman in la 726 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 5: filed a lawsuit against him alleging that he made unprovoked 727 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 5: anti Semitic statements on New Year's Eve. That's you know, 728 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 5: I don't know. I mean, that's that's her side of 729 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 5: the story. You know, he'll have his day in court. 730 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 5: We'll find out, but that's kind of an ugly story. 731 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 5: It's a radic Then you hear that he later bit 732 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 5: this woman on the shoulder. You know, that's that's erratic behavior. 733 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 5: So hopefully he gets the help that he needs and 734 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 5: uh and comes back, you know, better than ever. 735 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 6: I mean, he's to me. 736 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 5: I mean, if if you're a fan of football, you're 737 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 5: a fan of the players. I'm a fan of football. 738 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 5: I'm a fan of the players, and I know he's 739 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 5: a player another team, but I don't really care. I 740 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 5: really don't differentiate. And I hope he gets the help 741 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 5: that he needs and has a very great NFL career, 742 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 5: because he seems like a he seems from the other 743 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 5: people that I know who cover the rams, like a 744 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:26,440 Speaker 5: guy who's a great teammate. And this is going to 745 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 5: be just a you know, kind of a speed bump 746 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 5: in his road. But he'll overcome it. And that's sometimes 747 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,240 Speaker 5: what young people have to do. We all make mistakes. 748 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 4: Totally in a very unfortunate way. It wasn't the most 749 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:42,439 Speaker 4: shocking headline, Like in an unfortunate way. It made sense 750 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,320 Speaker 4: even with the April fools around it. You know, obviously 751 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:46,799 Speaker 4: we got the kind of thing I wanted to reach 752 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 4: tweet right away. I know, I texted you in preparation 753 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 4: for the show and sent that headline. I didn't do 754 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 4: that till I made sure that it was confirmed, and 755 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 4: then the insiders reported it in Nate Atkins of The Athletic, 756 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 4: their beat writer, wrote a really good column about it. 757 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 4: But it's it's something that wide receiver is a position 758 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 4: where there can be a lot of personality. In the NFL, 759 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 4: right there are more diva tendencies relative to other positions 760 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 4: in that group, and the NFC West has some great 761 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 4: wide receivers. Jackson Smith and Jigba was your offensive player 762 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 4: of the Year and he was due up for a 763 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 4: big extension, which he got and rightfully so. And a 764 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 4: big part of that is JSN has never caused one 765 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 4: bit of drama. Like you were reliable with the player 766 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 4: and you knew what you had. You also felt completely 767 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 4: secure in the person. Pukua Akua is someone who, based 768 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 4: on his play on the field, of course you would 769 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 4: give him a massive extension, but he hasn't gotten it yet, 770 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 4: and I think part of some of the stuff off 771 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 4: the field is maybe the reason why he hasn't yet. 772 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 4: And I hope this is a really good step for 773 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 4: him to ultimately be someone who can be a productive 774 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 4: teammate and get an extension and. 775 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 3: Live the kind of life he deserves. 776 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 4: I'm not rooting for the forty nine ers to lose 777 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 4: to puka Akua and have him put up two hundred yards, 778 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 4: but I think that's you know, it's a lot more 779 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 4: important than he goes and be someone that can be 780 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 4: well meaning in his community and his family and more 781 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,719 Speaker 4: just for his own sake, find some kind of stability. 782 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 4: And so you know, if it's true that he's out 783 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 4: there and getting the right recovery, then obviously wish him 784 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 4: the best in that, but it is interesting knowing that 785 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,799 Speaker 4: that's someone that hasn't gotten the extension quite yet. 786 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:19,879 Speaker 3: And it goes to show that with all. 787 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 4: Sorts of you know, different personalities or maybe issues that 788 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 4: don't quite make sense to us, you got to be 789 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 4: mindful about if and when you pay somebody. And so 790 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 4: for Brandon Aiyuk, the injury part of it, with that 791 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 4: with the forty nine ers, right, you weren't going to 792 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,239 Speaker 4: foresee that he was going to suffer that terrible kind 793 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:36,800 Speaker 4: of an injury. 794 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 3: That was unfortunate. 795 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 4: But on top of that, it was also a lot 796 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 4: of weirdness around the situation where you devoted one hundred 797 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 4: and twenty million dollars and what was it, seventy six 798 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 4: guaranteed and obviously some of those got avoided where you know, 799 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 4: you want to have. 800 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 3: The right people in a locker room too. 801 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 4: And I'm not making this segment with Pooka about all 802 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 4: the forty nine ers made a colossal mistake and. 803 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 3: It's all their faults and blah blah blah blah. 804 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 4: It just to show that there's a lot of factors 805 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 4: you got away when you're paying people on a football 806 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 4: team as there's a constant cycle in the NFL where 807 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,720 Speaker 4: guys age fast and you need to infuse youth quickly. 808 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 4: So it's about hitting on draft picks, but it's also 809 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,399 Speaker 4: making sure you feel good about the character of guys 810 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 4: you get. And we got the draft three weeks away, 811 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 4: so in addition to who they end up taking with 812 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 4: twenty seven and beyond, you also wonder what kind of 813 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 4: person's coming into the locker room too, no doubt. 814 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 6: No doubt, And that's a big part of it. 815 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 5: You know, you'll see a player sometimes and you'll you know, 816 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 5: you're we're looking at this from the outside, Okay, that 817 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 5: I always try to remind people that you're not an insider. 818 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 6: I'm not an insider. We're looking at this from the outside. 819 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 5: So from the outside, you say, hmm, this player should 820 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 5: have gone in the second round. How come he went 821 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 5: in the fourth round? And then you're like, well, wait 822 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 5: a second, his name's Aaron Hernandez. You know, it's like, 823 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 5: because the NFL security people know, you know, they have 824 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,839 Speaker 5: more information than we do, and doesn't mean they're gonna 825 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 5: least deer clear of a player, but they're going to 826 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 5: invest less in that player. And so You'll see players 827 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 5: that are really really good fall too late on day three, 828 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 5: and sometimes it has to do with their dossier of 829 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 5: what they've done in their life and high school, college, 830 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 5: and so it all follows year round. So, yes, who 831 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 5: you are as a person matters, and especially is as 832 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 5: far as get who gets paid. There's a lot of 833 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 5: players in the NFL that are equal players, and you 834 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 5: can put them side by side, and their career earnings 835 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,919 Speaker 5: are not equal. So it is somewhat arbitrary to see 836 00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 5: which teams or which players teams decide to take care of. 837 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 5: It's not necessarily a statistical thing. There's a lot that 838 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 5: goes into it, and being a good guy as part 839 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:46,840 Speaker 5: of it. 840 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, no question. So A and oait kmbr is the 841 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 4: number to join the conversation. And the forty nine ers 842 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 4: have got a lot to assess here in the offseason. 843 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 4: I love a lot of the character of the guys 844 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 4: they have in that locker room. But it just goes 845 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 4: to show that life can come at you pretty quickly 846 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 4: in this league. And so Seattle's the defending Super Bowl champions, 847 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 4: the Rams obviously right there neck and neck with them, 848 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 4: and what we're all believing was truly the Super Bowl 849 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 4: with that fantastic NFC Championship game, and the Niners are 850 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:17,239 Speaker 4: a team krub that. JD and I got into this 851 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 4: discussion a couple of weeks ago when we were kind 852 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 4: of hitting a dead patch and we thought, what's a 853 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 4: good philosophical topic for the end of a week, and 854 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 4: it was about young foundations of teams in the Bay Area. 855 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 4: And the reason we came up with it was because 856 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 4: you thought about where the Warriors were and all their 857 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 4: best players are older players. They don't have a young 858 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 4: foundational piece to build around right now. Doesn't mean they 859 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,920 Speaker 4: don't have young players that can't be productive, but a 860 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 4: young foundational piece they entirely lack that. Now, take the 861 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 4: other side of the spectrum, the San Jose Sharks. They 862 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:49,759 Speaker 4: might not be a playoff team this year, but it's 863 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 4: pretty conclusive that they got a young foundation with maclin 864 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 4: Celebrini of course being the head of the snake, and 865 00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 4: then guys like Will Smith and Colin Graff and ask Arov, 866 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 4: and you can go up and down the list as well. 867 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 4: Then in the middle you have the Giants, and you've 868 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 4: got the forty nine ers somewhere, and with the forty 869 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 4: nine ers. What's so interesting is that you've got Brock Party, 870 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 4: and I think you could say you've got Diamedo Leonor 871 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 4: and then you have hopefuls for guys like a Mico 872 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 4: Williams are an up to stout, but for the most part, 873 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 4: it's really Brock Party. And then a lot of other 874 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 4: players are either older, coming off a severe season ending injury, 875 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 4: or a combination of both. 876 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,799 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean you've got I mean the forty nine 877 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 5: ers need to inject their roster with six or seven 878 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 5: really core guys that are going to kind of lead 879 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 5: the way. 880 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:42,880 Speaker 6: So it's very pivotal. It's a pivotal draft for them. 881 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 5: It really it's a pivotal you know, last couple drafts, 882 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 5: but they struggled in the drafts, you know, uh, twenty one, 883 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 5: twenty two, twenty three, twenty four even to some degree. 884 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:56,920 Speaker 5: So twenty five is a really good draft. They need 885 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 5: to follow it up with another really, really good draft. 886 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 5: But they have to find some young core players. I 887 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 5: think you're right. A lot of the best players on 888 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 5: this football team are still Bosa, Kittle, Warner, Juice CMC, 889 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,800 Speaker 5: and they're all in what I would call the twilight 890 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 5: of their prime. You know, they're still prime. They're still 891 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 5: in the prime. They're still playing well. I mean, we'll 892 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 5: see about Kittle coming off the injury, We'll see about 893 00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 5: Bosa coming off the injury. But they're still playing. I 894 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 5: think all those guys at are really high level, Trent included. 895 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 5: But it's the twilight of their prime, and so can 896 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 5: they get it done. Well, yeah, they might be able 897 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 5: to get it done if the forty nine Ers can 898 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 5: John Lanch and Kyle Shanan can put together a fifteen 899 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,760 Speaker 5: to twenty manter off season between draft picks, free agents, 900 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:42,360 Speaker 5: and undrafted players that. 901 00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 6: You know is exciting. 902 00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 5: It's possible. The right equations out there to be had. 903 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,840 Speaker 5: It's just a matter of can they pick the right players. 904 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:51,840 Speaker 5: And they're gonna have to be really, really good in 905 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,319 Speaker 5: the draft if they want to be a Super Bowl 906 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 5: champion this year. 907 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,680 Speaker 4: This might be the most critical draft of John Lynch's 908 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 4: tenure with the forty nine ers. And Matt Mayoko made 909 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 4: a comment to us a couple of weeks back that 910 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 4: really stuck with me, and he said, it seems like 911 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 4: the forty nine ers are preparing for the inevitable of 912 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 4: having to split up this roster and you even look 913 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 4: at the free agent signings. 914 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 3: They got a lot of veterans of guys. 915 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,919 Speaker 4: That were on one year deals or in the case 916 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,359 Speaker 4: of Mike Evans, a three year deal with one year 917 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 4: of guaranteed money, where they understand that they have this core, 918 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,359 Speaker 4: a lot of their best players are older, They're going 919 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 4: to rely on them. But at some point you are 920 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,759 Speaker 4: going to start to have to shift your attention elsewhere. Like, 921 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 4: it doesn't mean that Fred Warner is a washed player 922 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 4: coming off that injury. Nobody's implying that because it's not 923 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 4: the truth. But sooner or later, you are going to 924 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 4: start to look at, Okay, can d Winters be a 925 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,279 Speaker 4: mainstay in this linebacking corp. Can up and Stout be 926 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 4: a dude who you want on your defense, whether that 927 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 4: be in the slot corner or if he's able to 928 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:58,359 Speaker 4: play outside. Can he be someone that does that? Can 929 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 4: Rinaldo Green have a bounce after a really strange and 930 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 4: kind of slumping sophomore season where he got benched in 931 00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,879 Speaker 4: a playoff game for a brief moment and visibly yelled 932 00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 4: at on the sideline by Shanahan. He Matt Schapman t him, 933 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 4: if I may joke about the first part of our show. 934 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,320 Speaker 4: So you are gonna have to look at the next foundation. 935 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:19,759 Speaker 4: At some point you have it figured out at the 936 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 4: most important position in quarterback, but your defense clearly needed 937 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,280 Speaker 4: a lot of help after they lost their key players 938 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 4: last year. And offensively, you're not gonna have Christian McCaffrey 939 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 4: being able to get four hundred and thirteen touches forever. 940 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 3: Probably can't even do anything close to that this year 941 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 3: for the most part. 942 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 4: So it is going to be a huge, huge draft 943 00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 4: for John Lynchton not only find hits, but hopefully a 944 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:42,800 Speaker 4: couple of them who can be Day one starters for 945 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 4: your football team. 946 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 6: Well, no question about it, no question about it. 947 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 5: As far as some of those questions, I think Ronardo 948 00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 5: Green absolutely can bounce back and have a good year. 949 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 5: I think he's a pretty good football player, and you know, 950 00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 5: you know he's as far as his talent, I mean, 951 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,719 Speaker 5: I don't think anybody's questioning his talent. You know, he's 952 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 5: a little bit of a different cat. He's kind of quiet, 953 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:09,439 Speaker 5: keeps to himself, but you know, he's a good football player, 954 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 5: there's no question. So I don't think there's any question 955 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 5: he can bounce back and play well up in stout. 956 00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 5: There's no doubt in my mind that he could step 957 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 5: up and be one of their best players. The first 958 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 5: one though, was on Winters. I have a lot of 959 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 5: questions whether Winters is he is a starter or if 960 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 5: he's just you know, he's He had a good DC 961 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 5: ear last year, but he still falls off tackles and 962 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 5: he's a small bodied guy. He you know, he starts 963 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,800 Speaker 5: to get worn out as the season goes on, the 964 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 5: run fits start to not be good. But at the 965 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 5: same time, on a team that lacks explosive players, he's 966 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 5: an explosive. 967 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 6: Player and he's fast. 968 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 5: The forty nine ers fastest run I think timed by 969 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 5: mph was de Winters on the pick six against the 970 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:54,600 Speaker 5: Colts late in the years. 971 00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 6: So he's very very athletic. 972 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 5: But you have Nick Martin there, and you also will 973 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 5: have Drake Greenlaw now, and you have Tatum Bethune and 974 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 5: Fred Warner, and you've signed two special teams linebackers in 975 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 5: Gifford and Wallow, and who knows if they even draft 976 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 5: one good linebacker. Somebody's getting squeezed who's pretty good, So 977 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 5: we'll see. I mean, I'm not really sure exactly what 978 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:16,720 Speaker 5: their plan is for winters. 979 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 4: So two oh nine chimes in and we can get 980 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 4: into this coming back. Was it a good draft this year? 981 00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:26,319 Speaker 4: I think it is a big fat grade of incomplete. 982 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 4: But there might be reasons for optimism or maybe some skepticism. 983 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 4: Let's talk about that when we come on back four 984 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 4: one five. They wait five, six, twenty seven to join 985 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 4: the conversation. It's Papa and Silver with Krug on the 986 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:37,319 Speaker 4: Sports Leader
