Speaker 1: Are they the greatest rock and roll band of all time? No,

5
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: but they're my favorite rock and roll band of all time.

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,599
Speaker 1: The Stones are the greatest rock and roll band of

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: all time. But Zeppelin. There's something about the sound of

8
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 1: Zeppelin that's just a little bit different. And I start

9
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: with the drums with John Bonham, the greatest rock and

10
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: roll drummer of all time. Somehow we make the smooth

11
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:40,360

Speaker 1: Countdown today and tomorrow at three eastern on the ESPN.

14
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: You had the opportunity to bow out if you wanted

15
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: to after that last segment, Diana, So I do appreciate

16
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 1: you holding on for dear life here and joining this program.

17
00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: No way. I was laughing, I was listening, and I

18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: was working at the same time, so you were distracting

19
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: me a bit. I had a couple of typos in

20
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: my text messages, so if I get any info wrong today,

21
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: I would hope that this show steps up and it

22
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: just takes full blame for you know, getting me off

23
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 1: the ball here because you know it's still early here

24
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 1: and we got a lot of action. Dan, all right,

25
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: you have the special today just based off what has

26
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: happened so far in free agency. What will be the

27
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: lead story on ESPN's Sports Center special on free agency

28
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: for today. Yeah, I think the wide receiver market and

29
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,759
Speaker 1: the coreer market is going to start taking off. Um.

30
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: It was really quiet yesterday, which I wasn't really surprised

31
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: because I knew those pass rushers were going to be

32
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: flying off because every team seemed like they were in

33
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,639
Speaker 1: on that and wanted a piece of that. Um. Look

34
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: where we can talk about all the pieces of these

35
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: free agents and the fits and and who the big

36
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: players are in the big names. But at the end

37
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: of all this, I still think the quarterback conversation is

38
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 1: the biggest one, which sounds predictable, but I think this offseason,

39
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 1: especially knowing to Shaun Watson situation, not being happy, this

40
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson situation in Seattle, though I could comfortably call

41
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,959
Speaker 1: not happy. The Chicago Bears haven't done anything at the

42
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 1: quarterback position. The Jets seem open to trading Sam Darnold,

43
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: So if something were to happen there, obviously that's going

44
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: to be our lead, and it could Dan, it could

45
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: something could happen today with that. Yeah, I wonder about

46
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 1: Sam Darnold. I mentioned this last hour that he could

47
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: really change quite a few things. If Sam Darnold's traded,

48
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: where's he traded too? You know? Could it be Seattle?

49
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: If you don't get a quarterback in return for the Bears,

50
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: then I got Sam Darnold who's twenty three years of age.

51
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: And I don't know the possibility of that because I

52
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: know Seattle doesn't want to Russ won't go to the Jets.

53
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: But could you get am Darnold and still capitalize on

54
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: a desperate Chicago Bears organization? Yeah, And that seems to

55
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: be the tone of the trade of it actually happening.

56
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: It's all about desperation. What the Chicago Bears are willing

57
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: to give up. And I look at it like this.

58
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 1: Naggie and Pace are essentially on one year deals now, right.

59
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 1: They need they need to win. So if you're them,

60
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 1: what do you care about mortgaging in the future. You're

61
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: just trying to keep a job, so everything is on

62
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: the table there in Chicago. I know that they are

63
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: looking at every single option. But here's the problem. When

64
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: when these talks started to pick up, I'd say about

65
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: two weeks ago in regards to Seattle actually picking up

66
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: the call, actually listening to offers, I had a team

67
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: that I was talking to that I know was interested,

68
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: and they said, look forget the cat pit. Stop getting

69
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: all caught up on that. And it's funny this one

70
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: GM said, I saw you on TV today and I'm

71
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,119
Speaker 1: not saying you sounded dumb, but you sounded done, which

72
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: is always my favorite. I'm like, no, thank you. You

73
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: can maneuver around cap hits, don't don't get caught up

74
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: in that. And it was a good lesson to just

75
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: remember that when we're talking about these things, because I

76
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 1: do think everyone gets bobbed down of you know, why

77
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 1: would Seattle do that? Why would they Apparently they can

78
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: make that work. That's not the issue. The issue is

79
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 1: Seattle just doesn't have the answer at quarterback. They're okay

80
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: with dealing, they want to play, just what's their answer

81
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: And that seems to be the biggest issue right now

82
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: when it comes to that actually going down. If I'm

83
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: the Bears, I go after DeShawn Watson, though, Diana, because

84
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: I got a guy seven years younger. And if I'm

85
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 1: going to put everything on the table and whatever you want,

86
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson's already under contract. Russ is going to go

87
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: to the Bears and go, Oh, by the way, I'd

88
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: like to be the second highest paid quarterback in the league,

89
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 1: which nobody's talking about. Russ isn't going there to play

90
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: for his old salary. What do you think about the

91
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 1: Bears all in on Deshaun instead? Yeah, Russ is going

92
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: to get paid. Here's the problem with Deshaan and I

93
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: hate continually saying the same thing because everyone keeps hearing it,

94
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: and it's frustrating. Houston is not trading Deshaun Watson. They're

95
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: not doing it at this point right now. And the

96
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: closer you're looking at the calendar is the league years coming,

97
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: and you start thinking if they're going to make a move,

98
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 1: if they're going to be forced to make a move

99
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: later in the year, they're gonna they need to start

100
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: thinking about this now. But the problem is everyone I've

101
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: spoken to who has interest in Deshaun Watson, which you

102
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: could assume it's a lot of teams right now have

103
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: told me that Cassario is a pro, and he's polite,

104
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: he's open to talking, but you bring up Watson and

105
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 1: a trade offer and the conversation ends there. They're not

106
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: even willing to go there. And I spoke to a

107
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: couple players that are on the free agent market, even

108
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 1: some players that have recently signed with Houston, and as

109
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: much as I was kind of quick to congratulate them

110
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 1: on signing in Houston, even though it kind of felt

111
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: like it felt a little funny, I was curious of, well,

112
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: what did they tell you about who's going to play quarterback?

113
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 1: You know, like you're signing with the new team. Yeah,

114
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: you want your money, but you want to I mean,

115
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: if I'm a player, I want to know what the

116
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 1: situation is. And it's it's funny. It's management is telling

117
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 1: players Deshaun will be here, and the players who all

118
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 1: talked to Deshaun are saying Deshan is digging in. He

119
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: is digging in and willing not to play. We're talking

120
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: to Diana Rassini. You can see her part of ESPN

121
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: Sports Center special that will be at three Eastern today.

122
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: NFL Free agency countdown the same situation. We got Sean

123
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: Payton on next hour, but this is somebody in front

124
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: of somebody there with the quarterbacking situation with Jamis now

125
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: coming back and Taysom Hill still there in camp, which

126
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: I sent coach Peyton a text message early this morning.

127
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: I said, thank God, I'm going first here. I mean,

128
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: I don't know who books the show, but they're brilliant,

129
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: because the last person I want to follow is is

130
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: Sean Payton. He's dynamic and brilliant and entertaining and so

131
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: so thank you guys for helping me out here. But

132
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 1: does he have a starting quarterback? I think he does.

133
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: I think he excu I think he thinks he does.

134
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: Sean will is going to fill your air in about

135
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: an hour with how much he loves Jameis Winston. And

136
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: I will always say, if I could find one person

137
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: in my life who loves me as much as Sean

138
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: Payton loves Taysom Hill, you know I probably would have

139
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: been married years ago and a waiting late in my

140
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: life here because he truly does he and and so

141
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: it's so it's so interesting speaking to the team and

142
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 1: to coach about that dynamic the quarterback position because she

143
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: really likes both of them. And I think Jamis challenges

144
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: them and and and coaches one of these guys. He

145
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: he loves taking a player like Jamis who really has

146
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: that natural ability and coaching him up and teaching him

147
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: the way, you know, to be a more decisive, more

148
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: accurate type passer. And the players on the Saints have

149
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: always told me always from I mean we're going back

150
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 1: to camp, how incredible Jamis is as just you know,

151
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: being part of that organization, because that's one of the

152
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: strongest locker rooms of any teams in the NFL, without

153
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: a doubt. Um, So it's gonna be from from what

154
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: I understand, it's going to be a quarterback competition come

155
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: the summer. He's gonna make them compete, that compete and

156
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: have at it and see who who comes out. But

157
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 1: I think coach is in a great position here because

158
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: you know, you can play either of these guys. If

159
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: Jamis becomes a starter, you have taste. I'm playing in

160
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,680
Speaker 1: this sort of utility position, I mean pretty much playing

161
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,319
Speaker 1: everywhere for him. So, um, we'll see. But but I

162
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: was told it's going to be a competition. Does your

163
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,959
Speaker 1: husband love you as much as Sean Payton loves Taysom Hill. Yeah, okay,

164
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: my husband loves the Eagles. That's about it. It It ends there.

165
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: It's it's it's so funny, this this whole free agency thing,

166
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: Dan Is. It's such a weird part of your job

167
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: as an NFL reporter because it's it's such a love

168
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: hate thing because love it's Adam Schefter, an ian ratmporter.

169
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: As much as I like to come on here and

170
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: be like I'm a big news breaker, I get the

171
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: little guys once in a while, I get the big fish,

172
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: but I get paid to really cover the game during

173
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: the season. Um, and I enjoy it. But the problem

174
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: is I love to compete and I love messing with.

175
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 1: I love Adam Schefter. I'm all the respects of the world,

176
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: but I enjoy trying to get a couple for a moment.

177
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,679
Speaker 1: And he's open to it. He knows what I'm doing

178
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: all the time. He's like, go for it. I go.

179
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: But just your life Monday through Friday during free agency.

180
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 1: It's it's so unhealthy, you know. Like I told my

181
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: husband on Sunday, said, don't expect any food, don't expect

182
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 1: water in the house. We're in the middle of a move.

183
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 1: Our place is a dump right now, and so I

184
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: guess he does love me enough to understand and support

185
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: me here. But it's really a sick part of this

186
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: job that I enjoy, and I may love this more

187
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: than him. So we're even Why do we assume the

188
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: Patriots know what they're doing in free agency? I don't

189
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:41,959
Speaker 1: know why we do. I think Bill Belichick, we give

190
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: him all the credit because he's he's the greatest coach

191
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: of all time. But I'm watching this spending spree here

192
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: and he's Here's Bill Parcels taught me this years ago.

193
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: He said, stop trying to figure out what teams are

194
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: going to do. The answers right in front of you.

195
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: He changes their style. It's they go by the history

196
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: of what they do. For example, we know the Colts,

197
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: they've got so much money right now, they're not spending

198
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: any money in free agency. They never do, so it's

199
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,319
Speaker 1: exactly what Bill says. So then you look at New

200
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: England here and it's like, I mean, no offense, Parcels,

201
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: You're wrong here because they are not doing what they

202
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: what they normally do. They're going outside the box. But

203
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: I didn't think they had any money though, Diana, remember

204
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: when Brady was there, and then they've they've they've spent

205
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,680
Speaker 1: they got one hundred and thirty seven million dollars in

206
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: guarantees right now that they've that, they've spent in less

207
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 1: than twenty four hours. Where'd that money? Where's that? Where's

208
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 1: it coming from? Two superb tight ends too, Yeah, Johnny Smith,

209
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 1: Hunter Henry like these guys, these are legit tight ends.

210
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: And you know, originally yesterday, meaning when I started to

211
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: see the signings, you know, he picks up a guy

212
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: from Miami, picks up you know, Johnny Smith from Tennessee,

213
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: and you're putting the connections. You know, these are these

214
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 1: are players who have been in sort of that New

215
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 1: England system with Mike Rabel in Tennessee and Brian Flores

216
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: in Miami. There's there's not gonna be a culture shock,

217
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: you know when when they arrived in New England. So

218
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: I thought that was smart. And you know, a lot

219
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: of the b reporters have been doing a great job

220
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: of digging up a lot of the quotes that Belichick

221
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: has had on these players. And he's had this like

222
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: love affair with all these free agents that nobody even

223
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 1: knew about until now that we've discovered they're finding what

224
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: they have. Money they have, they obviously have a lot

225
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: of it, but forget what they're doing. This is all

226
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: so interesting and fun, But who is the quarterback that

227
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: that to me, they can make. They can sign every

228
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl player that's on the market. But to me,

229
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: I don't think Cam Newton's the answer. I think he's

230
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: a placeholder until they figure out what they want to do.

231
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 1: And historically, not that they're sticking with that script, but

232
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: we know what Bill does. He drafts mid round. You know,

233
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: we've seen her, Ryan Marrit, Jared Stidham, Jamie Garoppol. You know,

234
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,959
Speaker 1: these are mid round guys and that's usually where they

235
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 1: go for a quarterback. Granted, they had Tom Brady all

236
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,359
Speaker 1: these years, so they didn't really need to go, but

237
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,840
Speaker 1: but that I just think this is really interesting that

238
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: they're building as if they've got a guy there. Thanks

239
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,120

243
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: that the free agency period you survive your marriage survives then, yeah,

244
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: thank you. Just give coach Payton a little shout out

245
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 1: for me. Say, hey, Racine, he says, you can't keep

246
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 1: up with her even if you try to be entertaining. No,

247
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to say that Sean loves Tasom Hill more

248
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: than Diana's husband loves her. Oh, he's fully aware that

249
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: Sean was invited to my wedding and all that he knows.

250
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:03,600

Speaker 1: your podcasts. Coming up, we'll talk to Shack Barrett, the

268
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: Buccaneers linebacker, and Sean Payton, New Orleans Saints head coach.

269
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: I gotta ask Shack Barrett. Is he a linebacker? Is

270
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: he an edge rusher? Do they have an official designation

271
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: as edge rusher? Mclovin is at a position I believe

272
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: when you look at franchise tags it is not Yeah, PAULI, Yeah,

273
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: he's been listed as a linebacker, but he plays like

274
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: a defensive end. But if you look at both ESPN

275
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: and Mike Florio's show, they refer to people as he's

276
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: an edge not even edge rusher. They just stop with

277
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 1: the word edge all caps. But do you make more

278
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: money as an edge rusher than a linebacker? Would it

279
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: be easier to get to the Hall of Fame as

280
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: a linebacker with a hundred sacks or a defensive end

281
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: with a hundred sacks? Everything a linebacker but I don't

282
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: know if like they're hybrids, you sort of line up

283
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: wherever they have you line up. It's not the way

284
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: it used to be. You know, when Shack joins us,

285
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 1: so I'll say, you know, are you an edge rusher

286
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: or linebacker or what are you? Yes? I think ESPN

287
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: on their draft has officially gone edge. Like you know,

288
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 1: they they list only edge. They never go for those

289
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: pass rushers anything else. Who was the first edge in

290
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: the NFL? LT jumps in mine? Yeah, but he was

291
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: not listed as an edge. I'm talking about. Who's the

292
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: first player listed as an edge rusher? Was that? Jdevion Clowney,

293
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: Connor Barwin, I'm just throw Yeah, it was Clowney. He

294
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: was listed as linebacker, wasn't he? Which is crazy because

295
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: there's nothing linebacker about him. No. He feels like what

296
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 1: would have been a defensive end? Well, there's a lot

297
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: of guys that you know would have been labeled an

298
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 1: edge rusher, but back then you were just a defensive end.

299
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: But now there's a designation. Is there a Pro Bowl

300
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: designation for edge rusher? I'm curious about that. So Shackle

301
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: join is coming up. Patriots spending spending in Day one

302
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: spending him. Day two, they signed Hunter Henry, former Chargers

303
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 1: tight end. The Bucks keep Gronk one year deal Saints

304
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: Keith Jamis Winston. Fitzpatrick goes to the Washington football team,

305
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: signing a one year deal. Ryan Fitzpatrick there six NCAA

306
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,640
Speaker 1: reps sent home. They were waiting for their rooms. They

307
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: were checking in in Indianapolis. They decided to go get lunch,

308
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, somebody tested positive. Those

309
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,960
Speaker 1: referees will not work March Madness. They have been sent home.

310
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: Eight seven seven three d P Show email address DP

311
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: A dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DP show.

312
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 1: I watched a lot of the knicks in the nets

313
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 1: last night. Julius Randall has been great, not good, but great.

314
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,120
Speaker 1: And you start to think about it. You know, when

315
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: he was with the Lakers, and I thought, if if

316
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: Zion put up Julius Randall numbers his first year, what

317
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: you know, Julius Randall us you know what's putting up

318
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: in is whatever second or third year. I thought, if

319
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: you can get twenty twenty one and ten out of Zion,

320
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: that that would be great. Now Zion has proven to

321
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: be better than that and putting up bigger numbers there.

322
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: But Julius Randall, you forget he I don't know if

323
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 1: he does anything well, like one thing really well. But

324
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 1: he's averaging twenty three, eleven and six. And I was

325
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 1: watching last night and they held their own. They were

326
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: getting blown out by the Nets. Hardnet a triple double.

327
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: Kyrie had a great game. They're still waiting for Durant there,

328
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: but the Knicks are at least interesting. Now there's a

329
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,000
Speaker 1: pulse there. I don't know, you know, the Knicks screw

330
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: up everything, but it does feel like there is something

331
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 1: there to build on with the Knicks. Yes, I like

332
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: the nets versatility. Now they have two ways to get points.

333
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: There's James Harden throwing up his arms in the air

334
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 1: to the officials, and then there's Kyrie falling and turning

335
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 1: and looking at the officials. Go we go, you're done?

336
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: How many fouls can you call him? The Nets? Come on, guys, well,

337
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: there are guys who there's an ability, there is a

338
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to say a science, but

339
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: it feels like that there is there is an ability

340
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 1: for drawing fouls and Hardened initiates contact and Kyrie's handle

341
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 1: is a problem. You you fouled. You're trying to get

342
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: to the ball and you can't. Yes, Like, I have

343
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 1: to give them some credit here that they do bring

344
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: this on that they they're inviting, you know, contact and

345
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 1: they have the ball so much. Yeah. Point, there's a

346
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 1: play where Harden dribbled Wright was trying to get filed.

347
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 1: He took two and a half steps and then he

348
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: didn't get filed. Like the guy backed off enough and

349
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: he just Harden just stopped dead stopped and then looked pass.

350
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 1: The whole building went that that that's a travel. But

351
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 1: they've decided to never call travel on James Harden. He

352
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: cannot travel. Like I would like to see him try

353
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: to get called for a travel in a game on

354
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: it there, he won't, they won't call it. I saw

355
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: where Shack Barrett. Shack had his all time basketball team

356
00:19:54,680 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: at each position, Steve Nash, Alan Iverson, Kevin Dured, Dirt Davitsky,

357
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: the Joker, and a sixth man Jamal Crawford. Jack Barrett

358
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 1: joins us. Now, I think I could come up with

359
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: a better team than that. Check. If that's your starting five,

360
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 1: I think I think I could do some damage against you.

361
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: That's my favorite at each position minus the center. Yoga

362
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: is just real good and even balling a lot lately,

363
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 1: but I probably could come up with a better five

364
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: overall start in five show. Okay, all right, well congratulations.

365
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 1: Last time we had John after the Super Bowl, you

366
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: said You're gonna try to make it work in Tampa

367
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 1: if there was another team involved in this, Like how

368
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,479
Speaker 1: close was it that you were going to go to

369
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,400
Speaker 1: another team? And what team was that? Did it come

370
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 1: down to? Pretty much was Tapa and Tapa, and Tampa

371
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: was giving Tapa every opportunity to keep me here and

372
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 1: to make it working. Uh, it worked out perfectly, So

373
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 1: I really didn't want to have to leave and go

374
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: anywhere else, to be honest, That's why I said it

375
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 1: from a jump that Tampa was my Plan A, and

376
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: I'm happy that I had to get the Plan B.

377
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,880
Speaker 1: But did you get another offer that was better than

378
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: Tampa's offer? I did not get another offer that was

379
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 1: better than Talnatos. Okay, yeah, so that to cheats. Did

380
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: you hear from Tom Brady yet? Oh well, I uh

381
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: checked my Instagram last night, but he asked him a

382
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 1: message earlier yesterday morning, and uh, just just saying that

383
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: you hope we could work something out and get back together.

384
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: I'm like, get me too. I want to be back here.

385
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: We got something special going and I am back here

386
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: now and I'm happy to keep building on what we

387
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 1: got going right now? Isn't it nice? You don't have

388
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: to move like you don't like. Your wife's probably saying, Oh,

389
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: we gotta pack up, or we're gonna pack up, or

390
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 1: where are we gonna move to? You don't have to

391
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: move maybe a bigger house. Yeah, we must definitely had

392
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 1: to move because we was renting the one w in

393
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: Now since we're gonna be here for a few years,

394
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: we want to buy and we actually was looking. We

395
00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: got a couple of houses that we're looking at today

396
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: that we're going to choose from. Good for you? Is

397
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 1: that your big purchase? Are you gonna buy anything special? So?

398
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,639
Speaker 1: I had my home home in Colorado already, but I

399
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 1: do have to buy a home down here, and I

400
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: have I had my car that I went already. I'm

401
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: gonna just get me probably another Tesla, a Tesla Rolester eventually,

402
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 1: and then I'm gonna get my wife for a nice

403
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: little car as a gift as well. Nice what was

404
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: the car you still got what was the car you

405
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: wanted growing up? I always wanted for somewhere. I wanted

406
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 1: to h two Humma and I wanted to range role.

407
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: You don't want those, you don't want those down No, No,

408
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 1: I got over the Humma pretty quick. I have a guy,

409
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: but yeah, they didn't come up with no new ones

410
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:44,679
Speaker 1: to make me want to get one. I wasn't an

411
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 1: eighth Street how much type guy. And then the range Rover.

412
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, I just just just get that all

413
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 1: together now that I have Tesla. Tesla is I love

414
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: a Tesla? Take us back to the super Bowl and

415
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 1: the game plan that you guys had to put pressure

416
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,919
Speaker 1: on my homes. So we knew just coming into the

417
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: game that it could be up to the guys up front.

418
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 1: We knew that we could apply a lot of pressure.

419
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: We could affect the game a lot, and uh, coach

420
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 1: Bows just was letting us rush. She wasn't having us

421
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 1: do anything. Guys by rush, you know not typically, but

422
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,199
Speaker 1: sometimes we drive back and courage. Sometimes we uh just

423
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 1: have a different assignment. But that game, he was just

424
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 1: letting us pin our ears back and go. Yeah, because

425
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: I look back on that and the offensive line was

426
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 1: not healthy with Kansas City and they'd replace some guys there,

427
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: and it just felt like, hey, we think if they

428
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: want to beat us running the football or a little

429
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 1: short passes, go ahead. We're just going We're going after Mahomes.

430
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: But when did you know we're winning this game? I

431
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 1: believe I ain't know. I believe that the whole entire

432
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 1: week coming and leading up until I just knew that

433
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: we wanted it. We wasn't gonna let us opportunity slipped

434
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 1: by that if we was gonna lose, We're gonna play

435
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: our best game. Pass when they think it was gonna

436
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: beat our best game, like they deserve a win. So

437
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: we we like I really didn't have no doubt leading

438
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,199
Speaker 1: up toward at all. You weren't in bad shape like

439
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 1: Brady was at the celebration, the boat celebration where you're shank. No, no, no,

440
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 1: I had a couple of drinks, but I was I

441
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: wasn't settling. No avocado tequila, That's probably what it was.

442
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: But you're not used to seeing Brady like that. No, No,

443
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 1: I'm not used to him, But I'm gonna get used

444
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 1: to us saything like that because we got a lot

445
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: of got a lot more to accomplish. It helped me. Here,

446
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: are you a defensive end, a linebacker or edge? I

447
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 1: think uh, I just say as it's the best way

448
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: to describe my position. Pass for us, drop back and

449
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 1: coverage occasionally the edge of the defense. So yeah, I

450
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,680
Speaker 1: think age would be appropriate. Um, and we're gonna chest

451
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 1: your basketball on it during the celebrity bracket challenge with us.

452
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,919
Speaker 1: Do you know anything? Is your bracket done? By the way,

453
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: do you know anything about college basket on? My bracket

454
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: will be done in a three minutes. But I haven't

455
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: kept up with it as much since my Marverick's not

456
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,160
Speaker 1: going to have like a real good pick in the draft.

457
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 1: That's when I keep up with it the most is

546
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: we were just talking during the commercial break. You're Chicago

547
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 1: North side of Chicago growing up in the eighties. So

548
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 1: we were wondering your favorite band, and before you tell us,

549
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 1: I'll give you a sample here. Fritzie h Sean Payton's

550
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 1: favorite band growing up was Aerosmith, Aerosmith, mclovin. Oh, definitely

551
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: Van Halen, Van Halen, Seaton ac DC. All right, Paulie,

552
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 1: going off the board, I'm gonna go Ario Speedwagon, Ario Speedwagon.

553
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: I would hope that Coach would have better music taste

554
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: and say The Stones or Zeppelin somebody like that, but

555
00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Coach's favorite band Van Halen. Man, I'll

556
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 1: tell you what you know. Ario kind of came in

557
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: as like a bronze but cheap trick would have been,

558
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: oh Chicago, okay, yeah, that would have been. We saw

559
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: him live. I remember in Naperville. There's a college, North

560
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: Central College. They performed at like a field house there

561
00:30:55,240 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: and that was probably just prior to them hitting it,

562
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: so cheap trick and rush would have been on. You

563
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: know the cassette tape you had that you pushed in.

564
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: In fact, the guy that invented this just passed away

565
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 1: this week, but you pushed your cassette tape in your

566
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: rewound that you said it to the song you wanted

567
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: to be hearing when you pulled up into your high

568
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: school parking line. What were you driving? I was driving

569
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: a Chevy Cavalier and the song was Tom Sawyer. We

570
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 1: had Getty Leon like four years ago talking baseball because

571
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 1: he's such a huge baseball fan and he collects, he's

572
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 1: got all kinds of memorabilia there. So a Chevy caval Cavalier,

573
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: and then you got Rush, you know, Rush and Tom

574
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 1: Sawyer going, did you have your letterman jacket on being

575
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 1: the quarterback in high school? No? I didn't. Here's why, Dan,

576
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't start my junior year, so I

577
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: only started my senior year, and so it was a

578
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 1: letterman's coat that just had like one varsity letter in

579
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: the upper left and you know, aside from like the

580
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: ribbon my mom gave me or something, it was kind

581
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: of empty. How many scholarship offers did you have? Probably

582
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: around five, all of them to the directional you know, Eastern, Northern, Southern, South,

583
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 1: you know all of those schools. But you know, look

584
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 1: at more than I expected, having only started my senior year.

585
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: Who plays quarterback now? The way you played in high school. Ah, gosh,

586
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 1: a kid Notre Dame is pretty scrappy. I was kind of.

587
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: I mean, he's obviously a much better quarterback than I

588
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: ever thought about being. But yeah, yeah, he's he's pretty

589
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 1: interesting to watch on tape. Um. You know, he finds

590
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: a way to win. So I I think I was that,

591
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: you know, kind of sprint out, move around a little bit. Um,

592
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 1: I had fun. I had a tremendous and and still is.

593
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 1: He lives in the area. Jay our Bishop a tremendous

594
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 1: coach who was a huge impact on my life. Over

595
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 1: ten thousand yards and that was that was in college then, Yeah,

596
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 1: that's a lot. So al Moldy at college. Um, I

597
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: was a much better college player than high school player. Okay,

598
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: ten thousand yards is a lot. Yeah, we we were

599
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 1: we were starting to get into that one back offense

600
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 1: that at the time, in those early eighties, it was

601
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: like foreign to teams. Um, we'd look at some big

602
00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:47,719
Speaker 1: sky film because they were doing it. Uh and who

603
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 1: knew it ended up being you know, I followed Mike Shanahan.

604
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 1: He was there a few you know, four or five

605
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: six years prior. I just saw him this summer. We

606
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: were sharing some stories and then later you know, Romo

607
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: came through there, and then after that Arrappolo came through there,

608
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: and um, it was a it was a great place

609
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 1: to go to school. Who's the most impactful college coach

610
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 1: as far as offense goes? That you can remember that

611
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: that he changed college football? Uh um, because I thought

612
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 1: about Mount That there was a Mount Davis. You're gonna yeah,

613
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 1: it was a Portland State the running shoot you know,

614
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,840
Speaker 1: and June Jones. There were a bunch of June Jones.

615
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 1: He was super. I would also you could go to

616
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:42,320
Speaker 1: that that Georgia's Southern University of Hawaii Navy Air Force

617
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 1: screen of like the version of the Wishbone. You know

618
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 1: those guys they I'm trying to think of the gentleman's

619
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 1: there was coach Eric Russell was at Georgia's Southern. I think, um, yeah,

620
00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 1: it was that tribe. I don't there was someone else. Um.

621
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 1: I would say this though, I think I've got the winner.

622
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 1: Lavelle Edwards at by U. Yeah, he what he was

623
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: doing in college. He was on like right when Bill

624
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: Walsh was doing some of the split back and in

625
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 1: advanced Lavelle Edwards by far. Yeah, I had a lot

626
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 1: of quarterbacks go through there. We're talking to Sean Payton,

627
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 1: the Saint's head coach. When did you know that Breeze

628
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 1: was going to retire? Um? I knew after the season.

629
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 1: UM see, a season ago he had he had thought

630
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,640
Speaker 1: about it. Um. In fact, he and I had a

631
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 1: good visit in our office and discussed it. And and

632
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 1: I would have bet Dan a year ago that that

633
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 1: was something I know that was something he was strongly considering.

634
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 1: And yet he had enough time to get away and

635
00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: think about, you know, playing another season, and ultimately that

636
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,680
Speaker 1: that rest and time away in time with his family

637
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 1: I think helped him arrive at the decision of coming back.

638
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 1: And so it was almost it was almost understood that, hey,

639
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 1: he came back. At least from my perspective, I felt

640
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 1: like this was going to be his last year. And yet,

641
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 1: you know, you kind of go a year to year.

642
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 1: I think it was someone that's that's done it so long.

643
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: And then we kind of got to a spot where

644
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: we'd touched base and I'm like, hey, have you thought

645
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 1: about when you're going to announce it? And look, he

646
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 1: was clever enough and I and it dawned on me

647
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: the other day I turned to Doug Miller or PR guy.

648
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 1: I said, Doug, what date is Sunday? And he looked

649
00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 1: at me, He's like, it's the fifteenth. I said, for

650
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: the fourth whatever data it said, what date did we

651
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,320
Speaker 1: sign Drew? And it was exactly fifteen years And I'm like,

652
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 1: I've been answering that question for the last three to

653
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 1: four weeks because he wanted to time it up. And

654
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 1: it's so like him. He is the most competitive guy

655
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 1: I've ever been around, coach, and I've been around a

656
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 1: lot of people down through the years, and I wondered

657
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 1: if that competitor could surrender and just say, I'm not

658
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: going to play football. You've got a great team, You've

659
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,320
Speaker 1: got a great relationship. It's hard for these guys to

660
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 1: walk away. Now, Like, do you think they were second

661
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 1: guessing that Drew actually gave it thought of maybe I

662
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 1: try to do this one more time. Yeah, I'm sure.

663
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,399
Speaker 1: But I would say this about him, he's Look, he's

664
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 1: exceptionally competitive. And I would agree with you that this

665
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: environment that's so unique relative to every day coming to work.

666
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 1: I think one of the bigger challenges for anybody when

667
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 1: they finishes. You know, I watched you guys come to

668
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: work in high tops and sweatpants and pullovers, and that

669
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 1: we get to wear the same stuff and go to

670
00:37:56,680 --> 00:38:01,479
Speaker 1: work every day and and it's not the normal world.

671
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:05,360
Speaker 1: It's not you know. And so but along the lines

672
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:10,560
Speaker 1: of that, I think he's so driven, not just athletically

673
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: but from a family standpoint, and his children are getting

674
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 1: to those ages where you know, you don't want to

675
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 1: miss certain events, and I'm there's so much more to him.

676
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: And I'm not speaking for him, but I know he's

677
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,839
Speaker 1: extremely excited about the challenge at NBC, and he's got

678
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 1: a lot of projects going on and and but I

679
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 1: think that back and you know that just the age

680
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 1: of where his kids are at, you know, he's just

681
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: you know, he'll come back from the summer and the

682
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: fall and talk about this game where his kids were

683
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 1: playing a flag game against Philip Rivers team and Philip's

684
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 1: kids were on the other and he and Philip have

685
00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: a good relationship. But I mean, I've seen him coaching

686
00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 1: this flag football and it's it's it's pretty impressive. I

687
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 1: still go back to you nearly drafted Patrick Mahomes that

688
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 1: Andy Reid goes up and gets him, and how how

689
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 1: that could have changed the NFL. Sean, Yeah, those decisions

690
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 1: every year happened, and in so often you just never

691
00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 1: hear about him. You know, I've been in draft rooms

692
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: in New York or in Dallas where you know you're

693
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:30,839
Speaker 1: able to get a player you want or um. It's

694
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:35,319
Speaker 1: amazing how that that can just change. You know, if

695
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,320
Speaker 1: you knew then, or if you knew then what you

696
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: know now, then how you would have obviously done things.

697
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 1: We were focused at eleven. We were focused on nine

698
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 1: because if nine was was not Lattimore or Mahomes, we

699
00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 1: knew we had one of the two players that we

700
00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 1: had inside that cylinder. And then you hear that. When

701
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 1: you heard that and the Chiefs have announced that Drey

702
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: right away I knew was Patrick. Yeah, now that was

703
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 1: a given. I that was a given and uh man,

704
00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:17,959
Speaker 1: and then look we took we took, I mean right away,

705
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 1: we took Lattimore and we just wanted to make sure

706
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:28,800
Speaker 1: we passed. You know, nine was the team, and you

707
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,759
Speaker 1: looked at obviously, if if your two picks away, you

708
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: want the team picking prior to the two picks to

709
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: take someone other than the two you have left. And

710
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 1: that's what happened. Um, I don't think we've ever truly

711
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 1: answered the question though, Boone, if the Chiefs took a

712
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 1: different player or Buffalo whoever had that pick stayed. We

713
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 1: were we were debating. We didn't think Lattimore would get

714
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: to eleven. We taught Mahomes had a chance too, but

715
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 1: we didn't think Lattimore would. And so you know, some

716
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 1: of the challenges. Some are that immediate need for corner.

717
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: We've got breeze or the quarterback, you know, but we

718
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 1: never got to that position. But that that would have

719
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 1: been the discussion. Yeah, that's when you start to look

720
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 1: at when do you when do you draft a quarterback

721
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 1: successor like Green Bay when they took Jordan Love and

722
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 1: you know, who knows if here's Rogers as the MVP,

723
00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: Like it's it's tricky and like you're fortunate day have

724
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston and Taysom Hill. You know, everybody knew who

725
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:46,359
Speaker 1: was the starting quarterback, but these other teams, it's when

726
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: you draft that quarterback and then how that quarterback reacts

727
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:53,160
Speaker 1: to what you just did in the draft is pretty delicate.

728
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:59,799
Speaker 1: It's challenging. And here's why. When you have an elite

729
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,759
Speaker 1: order back you're looking at and I'm not going to

730
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,080
Speaker 1: use the example of toys, but I am a little bit.

731
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:10,920
Speaker 1: You know immediately there's someone that can help him still

732
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:15,919
Speaker 1: in his quest versus you know, the Christmas gift that's

733
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 1: going to be Corduroys that you're going to need to wear,

734
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,839
Speaker 1: but you're not going to need him right away. All right,

735
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 1: that makes sense. So is Jordan love Corterroys to be determined?

736
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:31,359
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I think that I'm saying

737
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 1: that in a positive way. We got to the night

738
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,399
Speaker 1: before Christmas, opened one gift and you wanted to open

739
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 1: something you could use or play or whatever you didn't

740
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 1: want to open. And I think some of the challenges

741
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 1: at that position. And here's the thing, and I think

742
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 1: it happens every year and I hear it and I cringe. Well,

743
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 1: we'll get one of these three quarterbacks at the top

744
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:59,320
Speaker 1: of the draft. Well who do you like? And you know,

745
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 1: and if you don't like the other, I probably don't

746
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 1: like the other in the second or third round either.

747
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 1: I'm all in with you. I always say, don't take

748
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:13,720
Speaker 1: a quarterback. Take the quarterback you want doc have amen, listen,

749
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 1: find one you love and if not keep waiting and

750
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:21,400
Speaker 1: find one. But but yeah, don't get me started on

751
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 1: that position. I think it's a difficult position to evaluate,

752
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:25,920
Speaker 1: and I think a lot of teams. I mean, I

753
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 1: think there are a lot of mistakes made in the process.

754
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: And I think that this year's another interesting class with

755
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 1: some exciting players. And you know, the offenses at the

756
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:41,759
Speaker 1: college level are doing such a good job that these

757
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,719
Speaker 1: guys are getting at the line of scream, you know,

758
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:49,239
Speaker 1: getting trained earlier than ever before. Are you set at

759
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 1: the quarterbacking position? I think we are. I think we are.

760
00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 1: And look there there'll be a few calls we made,

761
00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 1: but our goal coming into the offseason was too obviously

762
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:04,919
Speaker 1: you resign Jamis Taysom played first and four games last

763
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,239
Speaker 1: year and let those guys go to work and and

764
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 1: and I'm excited about it. I'm excited about those two. Now,

765
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 1: there are a few things that it may still be

766
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:19,360
Speaker 1: out there, but I see those two competing for this position.

767
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,440
Speaker 1: Diana Russini, the ESPN reporters said that you loved Taysom

768
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 1: Hill more than her husband loves her. Yeah, listen, I

769
00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 1: she's a little bit over the top with that statement.

770
00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:37,320
Speaker 1: I think, just a little, just a little. I like

771
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 1: Taysom because because he loves football, and I like Jamis

772
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,960
Speaker 1: because he loves football. And those guys are fun to

773
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: be around. If the season started today, Sean, yeah, here

774
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 1: we go. I know, look, I buttered you up for

775
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: the last twelve minutes. Let me come on. I'm choosing

776
00:44:54,719 --> 00:45:00,319
Speaker 1: the quarter roys, Dan, who's your starting quarter? But your

777
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,399
Speaker 1: depth chart right now? Who is the who's the first?

778
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 1: Two are going to be sitting there. I mean, obviously

779
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 1: I've told both of them, Hey, it's going to be

780
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 1: you know, the two of you are going to compete

781
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:17,399
Speaker 1: for this position in and they understand it and they'll

782
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 1: come in and we've already had a chance to see

783
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: both of them to some degree. I think last year

784
00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: was important for us relative to Jamis. We had had

785
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: tastem in the building, but it gave us a year

786
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 1: to evaluate him, and it also gave him a year

787
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 1: to evaluate us, and I think that was important. Good

788
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:41,320
Speaker 1: to talk to you, and thanks for joining us. As always,

789
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: we appreciate your time. Outstanding. Thank you, Dan. All right,

790
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,000
Speaker 1: that's Sean Payton Saint, said coach
