Speaker 3: Last last night though, we gave everybody that the grand

39
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 3: idea of how the Yankees can fix, at least from

40
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 3: a public relations standpoint, all.

41
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,640

Speaker 1: let him run the team and make the trades. But

45
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: then to manage a team he knows, he knows the game.

46
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 1: Bring geta back, how close can we possibly beat? A Jeter?

47
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,760

00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: thing about he would be Yankee managers, and we left

55
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 3: no stone unturned with random Yankees. Thely guys we didn't

56
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 3: get in. We're like Rudy May and a few others.

57
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,040

58
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 3: of who might manage telling led by Jeter. He proffered

00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: that that look, the Yankees a horrible fundamental team, and

66
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: I don't I feel like that's a team that's not

67
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 1: practiced in maybe like three or four years. Uh, and

68
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,359

Speaker 1: she's a football fan, so let her talk like people

118
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 1: think this is what's gonna happen to the product, which

119
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: really tells you, okay, which which tells you a couple

120
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: of things. Number One, people really just won't want to

121
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: be mad about stuff all the time, which is why

122
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 1: we need to heal. But secondly, this shows you what

123
00:05:55,040 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: the overall impression and and optic of ESPN and is

124
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: right now that that here's ESPN, the worldwide leader in sports,

125
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: you know, self proclaimed worldwide leader in sports that acquires

126
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: the NFL Network and acquires NFL Red Zone, the worldwide leader.

127
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 1: What's gonna happen And the vast majority of people think, oh,

128
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna ruin the product. You're just gonna ruin everything.

129
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 1: You're gonna it's gonna be woke, it's gonna be it's

130
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: gonna be doing things outside of football. Taylor Swift is

131
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: gonna be everywhere. Like people think all of these things

132
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: are going to happen, and it's gonna ruin the product.

133
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: And suddenly NFL Red Zone Channel is gonna be different,

134
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 1: and Scott Hansen's gonna have to sit there and talk

135
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: with Berman uh doing updates. People think that's what's going

136
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: to happen to this product, and and it's I'm just

137
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: just stop for a second. Okay, understand that that that

138
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 1: that organizations that do sports for a living, especially as

139
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 1: long as ESPN, they're not gonna ruin a product they

140
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: didn't that gonna spend all this money to go out

141
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 1: and say, yep, now we can do what we went out.

142
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: We can disnefy it, we can disneyfy it.

143
00:06:59,640 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 4: Now.

144
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: It's see what we can do and nig everything. When

145
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna do to the NFL, there you already love

146
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: the NFL. That's not gonna happen now. I will say, eventually,

147
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: could we get to something like commercials on red Zone, Like,

148
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: while you're watching the red Zone on the side, could

149
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: you see something visually or something that is a voiceover

150
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: but you still get to watch the action? Yeah, I

151
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: can completely see that, because that's a missed opportunity. You

152
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: could have done that before and had some sort of

153
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: advertising where we're not taking away you're not not seeing

154
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 1: something on screen. You're either seeing some kind of bug

155
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: or you're getting some kind of voiceover, but you're not

156
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: missing any of the act. Could I see that?

157
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 5: Yeah?

158
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: Absolutely? Can I see it on the bottom on a

159
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 1: bottom line, yeah, one hundred percent. I can see that.

160
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: But that's not gonna take away from the game. That's

161
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: more of a and that's more of an evolving of

162
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: the product to the point where, Okay, we got to

163
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: make some money on this, right, You thought Twitter was

164
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: gonna be free forever. No elon must at, Oh boy,

165
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 1: I paid way too much for it. Now I gotta

166
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: find a way to get some money in here. So

167
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: now you gotta pay for blue check marks, and it's

168
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: not quite the same thing. Oh Yeah, there's gonna be

169
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: a little bit of changes on there, but overall, the

170
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: product is gonna be fine. Red Zone's gonna be fine,

171
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 1: NFL network is gonna be fine. I don't I'm not

172
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: worried about any of that stuff. Yeah, folks can.

173
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 3: Get all up in arms, and immediately it becomes the

174
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 3: how how soon before I'm indoctrinated with this this particular

175
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 3: character of the ESPN drama or deciding where there's oversaturation,

176
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 3: they'll they'll know where that tipping point is and they'll

177
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 3: they'll they'll broach that line.

178
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 5: That's the way it works.

179
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 3: By the way, out of all of those things you mentioned,

180
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,319
Speaker 3: the Taylor Swift thing is probably going to happen if

181
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 3: they can make it happen, because that brings more eyeballs.

182
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,959
Speaker 1: So just let's let's all beware.

183
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 3: We go back to one of the classic songs released

184
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 3: all the way back in two thousand and two, talking

185
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 3: about well the radio and record business by Tom Petty.

186
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 3: All the boys upstairs want to see how much you'll

187
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 3: pay for what you used to get for free? And

188
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 3: how many times did you have stuff on the web?

189
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 3: And it's like, all right, it's gonna try it. Behind

190
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 3: the paywall as you know, pay for clicks and whatever

191
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 3: else kind of went out the window in some of

192
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 3: those earlier models. Trying to put the genie back in

193
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 3: the bottle for many companies did not work. They had

194
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 3: to find different ways, partnerships, revenue streams, consolidation, et cetera.

195
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 3: In this case, yeah, there's going to be changes. Of course.

196
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 3: You now own the property. You can do with it

197
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 3: what you will, whether it's picture and pictures you say

198
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 3: a bug a lower third. When a game goes to commercial,

199
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 3: it's not the commercial running from CBS or or Fox

200
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 3: or whatever, or it's and it's overlaid as part of

201
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 3: a deal that gets broken. Yeah, all of those things

202
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 3: are possible. Commercial breaks for a minute or two, maybe

203
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 3: a bathroom break for Hanson. Who knows all of those

204
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 3: things could be in the offing. But guess what, if

205
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 3: you don't have an alternative, you're not going.

206
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: Anywhere, So suck it up.

207
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 3: But it I mean, be mad if you want you

208
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 3: don't want to see McAfee, don't watch you don't want

209
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 3: to watch Steven A. Smith, I'm sorry, don't watch anything

210
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 3: havy to do with the network.

211
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 1: Don't watch their soap.

212
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 3: Operas on ABC. I mean, he's going to show up.

213
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,079
Speaker 3: He's gonna pop up. That's the way it works. And

214
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 3: they're not spending that much money to not include their

215
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 3: prime time players. They'll they'll be part of the action.

216
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 1: I cannot believe the Jets are in the red zone

217
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: so early in this game against the Patriots. What is awful?

218
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: This is ridiculous. How are you in the red zone?

219
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,199
Speaker 1: This ruk. This game is not even two minutes old,

220
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: and Dustin Fields is terrible.

221
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 3: We didn't even get settled in. He's already screaming at

222
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 3: he was already laughing up. I kind of want stephen A.

223
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 3: Smith to be the red zone host. I'm telling you

224
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 3: it's it's inevitable, but it is the fan O snap.

225
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 3: We got other news in sports today that was inevitable.

226
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 3: Is this thing's been just dating a while?

227
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,320
Speaker 1: This Cowboys touchdown was horrible. It was ridiculous. It was abominable.

228
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 1: It was embarrassing. It should have never happened. I don't

229
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: understand why it's it's seven to seven in the first quarter.

230
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: It's utterly, utterly ridiculous.

231
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 3: You missed six other scores because you were yelling about

232
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 3: Jerry Jones and the bad negotiations. But all of it

233
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 3: is is all the handwringing and misery and everything else. Right,

234
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 3: it's the when the NFL package right Sunday ticket goes

235
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 3: to YouTube TV. You gotta pay the eighty three bucks

236
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,599
Speaker 3: a month for YouTube for for the tv base subscription

237
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 3: plus your NFL package. But they're gonna do your favorite.

238
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 3: They'll stretch it out over twelve months for you. Now,

239
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 3: guess what they're still gonna do. Bond zone numbers.

240
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 5: It's gonna be.

241
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 3: Off the charts because people can't get enough and they

242
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 3: know it, which is how this deal got consummated.

243
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: But everything's gonna be fine. Yes, are they gonna put

244
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: some of their people on NFL networks, Yes, but it's

245
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: it's gonna it's going to be fun. It's like this

246
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: is not like, Hey, some kid just showed up with

247
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: money and bought the Pride. Well, now I gotta figure

248
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 1: things out. Like ESPN's done a second, ESPN's done sports

249
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,559
Speaker 1: for a long time. I'm pretty sure they'll put out

250
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: a pretty good product when it comes to NFL Network

251
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: and when it comes to the red Zone, I'm pretty

252
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: sure things are gonna be fun. Yeah, and again, if

253
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 1: you're if the Mark Channel bought it, I would understand that,

254
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I'm gonna get Lacey Schaber is gonna

255
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: be on red z if.

Speaker 5: I love Hugh telling me that, come on, that'd be great.

257
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 1: And then there's gonna be a movie about how Hey,

258
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: here's tears. Two women who took over, uh, the Red

259
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: Zone channel. But they were unpopular. But now here's a

260
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: producer and a director that they fall in love with,

261
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: and they they work with each other and they try to,

262
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 1: you know, make the show even better, and then the

263
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: ratings increase. But then there's some sort of uh, new

264
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: person involved that's gonna come in and they have to

00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: Okay, what's that Chet's touchdown?

286
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 3: Something seems to have been left out of this year's package.

287
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 3: I can't quite tell what it is.

288
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: Hey, real serious, I got a serious question. A week off? Huh?

289
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: That is that what it was?

290
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:46,959

Speaker 1: how about justin fields for Tree Lance? I mean, come on,

296
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,959
Speaker 1: how about that. Let's let's do it. Trey Lance is

297
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 1: way better, all right, justin fields in a couple of drafts.

298
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: Just like that.

299
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 3: He slapped his hands on his shoulder pads and he said.

300
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 1: You are healed, but you are healed. But just think

301
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: about that the optics that the worldwide leader in sports

302
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: is acquiring one of the biggest football products you can

303
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: and the general reaction is they're going to ruin it.

304
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: Like that's that's a look in the mirror where ESPN's

305
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: gotta go, oh okay, we really need some sort of

306
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: change here, because this is this is not confidence in

307
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: the product. This is this is how do you feel

308
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: about buying a car that you just but oh I

309

347
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,800

349
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,600

00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,560

00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 3: I heard the guys Uh, Petros and Matt and Tim

360
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 3: Kate's talking about it a little bit earlier on our

361
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,360

362
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 3: store and five seventy l a Sports Uh, and they

363
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,000

364
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 3: need to get there and get your bag procured. Because

365
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,120
Speaker 3: the one piece cards that they gave out, they didn't

366
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 3: get one to everybody but a couple of weeks ago,

367
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 3: they're selling raw for five hundred bucks.

368
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: Wow that maybe maybe maybe you should have gone to

369
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: do that.

370
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 5: Gen Ten's well, I could have just.

371
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,679
Speaker 1: Pretended that you were still here. We could have just

372
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 1: played some some of your drugs. Yeah, let's go. A

373
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 1: few people wouldn't know. It's like a right, why does

374
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 1: harmon doesn't matter?

375
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 3: He just keep saying yeah, just keeps injecting that in

376
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 3: every conversation.

377
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: Uh. Max Munsey with a two run homer, Dodgers lead

378
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 1: it to nothing. Still batting tasker Hernandez with a double uh

379
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 1: in the first inning. So a little bit of different

380
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 1: start for the Dodgers tonight. I'll probably smoke some me

381
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 1: against the Cardinals, and look, Munsey is back, and suddenly

382
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 1: the Dodgers are hitting a little bit more, that little

383
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: bit more. So if you want to go get that

384
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: that cross body bobblehead block of cheese brow hello, go

385
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: grab we can be gone.

386
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 5: Good.

387
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 1: That's good.

388
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 5: But by this point I'm sure they've given them away.

389
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 7: Uh.

390
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:15,120
Speaker 1: Otani doubled.

391
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 3: There was a ground out Freeman with the sack fly

392
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 3: and then Mounsey homers. So yeah we got chaos.

393
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,120
Speaker 1: Uh uh So this is where we sit right now

394
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 1: again a big again, this is the only baseball game going.

395
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 1: All the other baseball tonight was canceled.

396
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 3: No, don't forget, we're still waiting for Derek Jeeter to

397
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 3: walk out to make a pitching chance.

398
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 1: Oh well that is true. Yankees and the Rangers zip

399
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 1: zip in the eighth inning. But the Rangers have the

400
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: bases loaded in one out. We could be get closing

401
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: in on the Geta era. It could manage the Yankees.

402
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: Get Gea in here, get Geta in But big stuff

403
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,880
Speaker 1: out of the NFL today. We got quarterback decisions. We

404
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: have quarterback indecisions.

405
00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 3: But one of the Justin Field's face just went, yeah,

406
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 3: well what can I say about Justin fields indecision?

407
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 1: But let's start with the first bit of big news.

408
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 1: Chador Sanders will start the Browns opening game this week.

409
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: He will start the first game of the preseason, likely

410
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: because well, okay, Tyler Huntley just got signed, doesn't know

411
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 1: the playbook, Okay, Dylan Gabriel is hurt and out, Kenny

412
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: Pickett hurt and out. Joe Flacco is forty eight years old.

413
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 1: They don't need to play him. So hey, you know,

414
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: you could kind of sit here and say, hey, the

415
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 1: Browns are showing great confidence in chaudor Sanders, but really

416
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 1: else you couldna put out there.

417
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 3: There's a great meme that started making the rounds last

418
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 3: night out there man in the aftermath, I don't know

419
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 3: if you've seen it before, where it's a bunch of

420
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 3: kids and like they're splashing around. So if you want

421
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 3: to go and let your brain go the worst place,

422
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 3: it's like they're flailing to try to stay afloat, right,

423
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 3: they're struggling, and then you've got somebody inserted off on

424
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 3: the side who's kind of looking in at them. And

425
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 3: then there's the second part art as you move your

426
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 3: eyes down, someone's chained to a chair and it's a skeleton,

427
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 3: and they were putting all the names of the Browns quarterbacks.

428
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 3: The people are struggling, there's Hungley coming in because he hasn't.

429
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 5: Been there yet.

430
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 3: And then well in that chair is Deshaun Wattson. So

431
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 3: all of that to say, is a chair.

432
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: Like underwater, like he's delivering Colonel Sanders down to Davy

433
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: Jones Locker.

434
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 8: Right, exactly what you start believing in stories, you're in one,

435
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 8: that's kind of where we're at. So yeah, Schador gets

436
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 8: the A day after you start talking about, well how

437
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 8: short is the the rain for him in Cleveland, It's like, well,

438
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 8: here you go, you get first reps.

439
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: Fantastic for we'll be back to the fantastic. Now you've

440
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 1: got Franklin is in Tyler Huntley. They got Franklin. They

441
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: got five quarterbacks. Now. No, but to be serious about

442
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 1: this for a second, right, Really, you could look at

443
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,400
Speaker 1: it and say, hey, the Browns are giving you this shot, right,

444
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 1: that's awesome, And you can say, boy, but who is

445
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 1: it really gonna be? But I want to say because

446
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: this would show and the Browns could prove that, hey,

447
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 1: we're actually a big league organization, right, We're not just

448
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: some kind of crazy ass team that just does the

449
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 1: draft like we're walking into a fantasy draft with no prep,

450
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 1: right trying to figure out our quarterback situation. We'll take

451
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel. Boy, I tell you he's really good, but boy,

452
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 1: he is not big. And we'll take Shador Sanders after

453
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 1: we pass on him four times and then make him

454
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 1: believe that he's our future when we got him in

455
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: the fifth round. But you can show that you are

456
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: a big boy franchise and you really do do business well,

457
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: and not just the way we think you've been doing

458
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 1: it for the past few years. If he plays well,

459
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 1: he keeps the gig, right, If he plays well when

460
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: the lights go on, now give him a little bit

461
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 1: of extended play. You have to, right, you only have

462
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: a couple of guys on the roster, so it's not

463
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: like you know, schaudroor Sanders is going to have a

464
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: cameo appearance. Like Shador Sanders should probably play the entire

465
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: first quarter into the second quarter most likely, right because

466
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 1: if you're because flack Flacko's not going to play with

467
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: the backup, so you have guys that are really gonna

468
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: need to see some time. So this should be some

469
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: extended time for Shador Sanders. Now, is he playing with

470
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 1: backups a lot of it? Sure? Is he playing against

471
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 1: other teams backups, Yes, But if he plays well, let

472
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 1: him keep the gig until he shows you he can't

473
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 1: do it. You know why, because you got to see

474
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 1: him at some point, right and you gotta see you

475
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,120
Speaker 1: got you have to see Shador Sanders at some point

476
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: this season. Right now. We went through this whole great

477
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: story a week ago where I think all four guys

478
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 1: are gonna start now, maybe all five fantastic, Fine, all

479
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: four guys are gonna start at some point this year

480
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: for the Browns. But you're gonna need to see Shador

481
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 1: stand No matter what, the guy you need to see

482
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 1: this year play quarterback is Shador Sanders. Right, you cannot

483
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: see if it came to it. Do you really need

484
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: to see Dylan Gabriel?

485
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:41,919
Speaker 4: No?

486
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 1: Do you need to see Kenny picking his baby hands?

487
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 3: No?

488
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: Do you need to see Joe Flacca again?

489
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 4: No?

490
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: Do you need to see Tyler hunt leet know? But

491
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: you need to see Shador Sanders. He's the guy that

492
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,879
Speaker 1: the team needs to see, that, the franchise needs to see, that,

493
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,959
Speaker 1: the fans need to see. You need to see him.

494
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 1: So if he's playing, well, okay, let him run with

495
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: a little bit. I'm not saying give the job. I'm

496
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 1: not crazy. I mean I'm a little crazy. But if

497
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: he as long as he shows that I'm not overwhelmed,

498
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: I can make the throws. Because that's all. That's the

499
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: big thing I always look at for quarterbacks beginning of

500
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: the year, when they get into game, do they look

501
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,360
Speaker 1: like they just need some time, but they're not overwhelmed?

502
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,919
Speaker 1: By the moment, overwhelmed by the situation. And if he

503
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: is not, and he plays well, guess what, shau Drew

504
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: Sanders gets your first team reps in practice, and because

505
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,679
Speaker 1: you've got to give somebody first team reps, then you

506
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: gotta let him because you need to see him at

507
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: some point. And the faster you see him, the faster

508
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: you know if either you somehow got your quarterback of

509
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: the future and present, or hey, we got to move

510
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 1: on from him, and it's Arch Manning next year, and

511
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,199
Speaker 1: it's Kenny Pickett in week three, and Dylan Gabriel in

512
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 1: week five and Brian Sipe in week eight, and then

513
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: it's Joe Flacco. But you need to see him at

514
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: some point, So why not if he plays well enough,

515
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: let him run with the gig for a while, because

516
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: you have to. So Trey Lance, no, I no, the

517
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 1: Jets are gonna get Trey Lance. We need Trey Lance

518
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: because Justin Fields is terrible.

519
00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 2: But we'll get Dan.

520
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: Let's let's full into or say.

521
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 3: Let that marinate a second. I think some of the

522
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 3: discussion with this is it's just the obvious, right, you

523
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 3: got a couple of injuries that preclude them. I don't

524
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 3: know why you had decideswipe picket like that, But I

525
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 3: mean that's that's just showing your.

526
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 5: Your hatred towards well, towards.

527
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 3: Kenny Pickett and what he could or could not be

528
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 3: now that he's no longer shackled by the offensive constraints

529
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 3: in Pittsburgh.

530
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 1: Oh wait, he's gone to Cleveland.

531
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 3: It really is the big question of how quickly they're

532
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 3: giving up on the season, right, because if you're gonna

533
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 3: try to install Shdor Sanders, you're basically for Jimmy has

534
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 3: limits the fun of watching the sort of damnicles hanging

535
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 3: over Andrew.

536
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 1: Berry over there. This is his guy, this is the

537
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 1: guy you wanted.

538
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 3: And with every bad tempt, bad interception of futile possession

539
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 3: that it becomes clear and clear that you have a

540
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 3: change in your front off imminent. But for Shador Sanders,

541
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 3: you might as well showcase and see what you've got.

542
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,679
Speaker 3: We've talked about the fact that you do have four five.

543
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 3: We'll see how many more guys come walking through that

544
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 3: door before it's all over that maybe there's someone that says, well,

545
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 3: we'll fix him and we'll take him off your hands

546
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 3: and you can get back a late round pick again

547
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 3: talking completely there, or you're just you're validated by the

548
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 3: pick and you just say let's roll the dice because

549
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 3: are over unders four and a half. Anyway, we never

550
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 3: die with this situation.

551
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 1: This is not a season, this is not everybody knows.

552
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 1: This is where we're starting over, whether it's arch Manning

553
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: a year from now or Shador Sanders here. Hey, we

554
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 1: had a run, and you know now we're dismantling the

555
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 1: team and clearly we're in a tank mode for this

556
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 1: year because look at what we're doing at quarterback. But again,

557
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 1: you need to see him. So if he shows that

558
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: he's ready, okay, and I'm not saying he's got I

559
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 1: don't know he's gonna be great, But as long as

560
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: it's not too big for you, you can playing until

561
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: he came.

562
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,360
Speaker 3: But anymore, there's been nothing coming out of the camps

563
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 3: that that I've seen in any edited uh data and

564
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,919
Speaker 3: video that's you know, been like, oh, he's electrifying. I

565
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 3: know we had a couple of those throws early on.

566
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,199
Speaker 3: With quarterbacks, you gotta see him play, and that's whole thing.

567
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,159
Speaker 3: You gotta see him when the lights go on, non

568
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 3: go through practice all the time and they can be good, bad,

569
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 3: and different. But you gotta see him when the lights

570
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,119
Speaker 3: go on and the lights are on, and you know

571
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 3: you're gonna get the great effort from him because he's

572
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 3: not a veteran where hey, it's the preseason.

573
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play. If you know, he's gonna play just

574
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: like he played in college. He'sna played with the same

575
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: sort of fire and and and attention to detail that

576
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: he played with in college. You were gonna get his best.

577
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 3: You know what, Travis Hunter is not walking through that door.

578
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 3: You're not playing a bunch of second great secondaries as

579
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 3: we saw uh with great regularity on those Colorado schedules. Oh,

580
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 3: by the way, he didn't win those games either. Just

581
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 3: you know, a nice little reminder, Uh in all of.

582
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 1: His color didn't win a lot in college. And he

583
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 1: all right, bad example, sorry, go ahead, sorry and Bilds.

584
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 1: I mean, are they gonna say why a side swipe

585
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 1: and smoking Jacob?

586
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 3: I just you took Vanderbilt in a little little different circumstances.

587
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: Someone's got to lift a program. But Kyle McCord lifted

588
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 1: Syracuse up to a big Bowl game last year in

589
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,120
Speaker 1: ten wins. Kyle McCord did it in Syracuse.

590
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:20,879
Speaker 5: Do you take money?

591
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure lot stuff.

592
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 3: That's the other part of the college stuff that I

593
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 3: love is you know it's like it's all above board.

594
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 1: Now I's like, no, it's not.

595
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 5: Who ain't kidding yourself in transparency?

596
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: My ass?

597
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 3: But it comes back to the question here. Remember Joe Flacco,

598
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 3: even when he won Comeback Player of the Year, Joe

599
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 3: Flacco was not terribly efficient. They won games in spite

600
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 3: of him.

601
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they did yet all right because.

602
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:49,280
Speaker 3: His touchdown the interception ratio wasn't exactly otherworldly. Uh, they

603
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 3: scored just enough and the defense did their job kind

604
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 3: of like you've been hoping they We'll talk about the

605
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 3: Jets and they're sixteen to ten wins.

606
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 5: Perhaps that was Joe flaccam. I mean him for the

607
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:01,120
Speaker 5: books part.

608
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 3: Maybe a little higher scoring, but it all came down

609
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 3: to what Miles Garrett and that defense were able to

610
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 3: give him.

611
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: So here we are, Yeah, say he's running, let him

612
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 1: run with it, man, let him do it just so

613
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: why not? Right? Like Kevin cost at the end of

614
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 1: For Love of the Game, when they bring up the

615
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: kid that that day he played with the kid's dad

616
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: and he meets him before the game, and they go

617
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: now batting, you know, of course, because actually do you

618
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: send a rookie up to reckon no hitter in the

619
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:24,240

669
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,120

671
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 7: two nothing Texas with some late scoring. This was scoreless

672
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,160

673
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 7: Aaron Judge of the Yankees, off the injured list today

674

677
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 7: final Texas to nothing with two runs in the eighth.

678
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 7: The first place Blue Jays are up here.

679
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: It comes Gita to manager Yankees. Here we comes.

680
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 7: Actually, they could just use him to hit at this point.

681
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 7: They went two for twenty eight at the plate in

682
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 7: this game. I bet at age fifty you could get

683
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 7: it hit.

684
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 3: It probably a better shortstop still at this point than Volty.

685
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, if you've seen Volpi this year, Yeah, you're

686

689
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 7: The Rays are already up seven to nothing on the

Speaker 7: a Sheha Langeliers hit three solo homers sixteen to seven.

699
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 7: Athletics wanted Washington. The Nats have lost six in a row,

700
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 7: and yes, there were ball games in the NL East tonight.

701
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 7: The first place Phillies lead by two and a half

702
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 7: over the Mets. Phills five nothing beating Baltimore, while the

703
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 7: Mets lost at home three to two to Cleveland. The

704
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 7: Mets offense went four for twenty nine, so actually better

705
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 7: than the Yankees.

706
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but it doesn't matter. I just I'm

707
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 1: a sneaking suspicion. The Mets have sniffed first place for

708
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: the last time this year. Yeah, a good run.

709
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 7: We're not even through the first week of August.

710
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 1: Steve, We've been terrible for two and a half months.

711
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: Steve's been awful.

712
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 3: You should have seen my guy out in the hallway

713
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 3: try to rationalize all this been awful. He was gazing

714
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 3: and walking in a circle like he was trying to

715
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 3: create a safe space for aliens.

716
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: I've gone. I've gone from thinking I can't believe the

717
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: Mets are on the slide for two months and now

718
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: thinking it's amazing we're still ten games over five hundred.

719
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 1: The fact the Mets can't hit and a starting pitcher

720
00:32:58,120 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: can't get out of the fifth inning, how are we

721
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: ten games over five hundred right now?

722
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 7: It's Mets and Padres, the last two wild card teams

723
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 7: in the Yeah, it doesn't look like anybody's gonna catch

724
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 7: those two, right.

725
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: You know.

726
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 3: The other fun fact though, Steve, go back to the

727
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 3: Yankees a second. Since June first, the White Sox have

728
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 3: as many wins as the Yankees.

00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 3: had great hope on promise of great things, it's all

777
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 3: been torn asunder. And now Kyle Schwarzer cannot be stuck. Oh,

778
00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,280
Speaker 3: he's gonna have seventy home runs and seventy five RBI

779
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 3: this year.

780
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: It's gonna be So we talked a few minutes ago

781
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 1: about your quarterback decision is starting to get made for

782
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 1: Week one NFL preseason, Srdor Sanders will start for the

783
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:04,479
Speaker 1: Browns and in Indianapolis, Anthony Richardson will start for the Colts. Oh,

784
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 1: Anthony richards win. No, Daniel Jones is gonna wind up

785
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: winning this job. Okay, And I'll tell you exactly why

786
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,560
Speaker 1: they still have a lot invested in Anthony Richardson. It's

787
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 1: still a neck and neck competition. They have both looked

788
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 1: so far. In camp. Hey, sometimes they have bright moments,

789
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 1: but generally it's kind of been a flat competition between

790
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,720
Speaker 1: the two. But Daniel Jones is gonna win simply because

791
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,360
Speaker 1: after you read about what Shane Stike and head coach

792
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,719
Speaker 1: says he wants from the quarterback, tell me who this

793
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: sounds like. He said he wants the offense to be clean.

794
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: They want to protect the ball, play situational football, be consistent,

795
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: move the offense up and down the field. That is

796
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 1: not Anthony Richardson. Okay, that's not Anthony Richardson. Has not

797
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 1: played enough football. He's been hurt, he's been ineffective. He's

798
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,479
Speaker 1: not suddenly going to be this guy. And you're gonna

799
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: see a big push in the NFL now to go

800
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 1: away from quarterbacks that haven't played enough in college. Right

801
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 1: the old Bill Parcells, I wouldn't draft quarterback unless he

802
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 1: had fifty starts in college foot or forty starts in

803
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 1: college football over the coursers. That was a big thing.

804
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 1: You're gonna start seeing teams go back then and get

805
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 1: away from I'm just wowed by the guy's talent because

806
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 1: Richardson has not been able to be consistent enough. He's

807
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 1: not been able to pick up the position. He's not

808
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 1: been able to stay healthy. Daniel Jones, what's the one.

809
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 1: The guy's been consistent, He's been in the lineup, he

810
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 1: has started for a long time. He's started a lot

811
00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 1: of games. You have a lot of weapons in Indianapolis.

812
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: But when you hear the coach say, I want to

813
00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: clean offense, protect the football, which is not what Anthony

814
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 1: Richardson does. Right, situational football, consistency, all of these things,

815
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: this is what Daniel Jones does. Does he do them great? No?

816
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: But can he do them well enough? Because the Colts

817
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: offense is that loaded with talent. Absolutely. You have four

818
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: terrific wide receivers, you have a really fantastic running back,

819
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 1: you drafted what could be a great tight end. Like

820
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 1: this offense can explode and you don't need some kind

821
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,120
Speaker 1: of crazy talent to do it. You just need a

822
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:57,360
Speaker 1: guy that can execute. You need a Sam Darnold to

823
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 1: come in and have the kind of season like he

824
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,959
Speaker 1: had with the Vikings last year. Hey, I'm in trouble,

825
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,279
Speaker 1: It's gonna throw it to Justin Jefferson. What, okay, gohe

826
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,359
Speaker 1: That'll be fine. So Daniel Jones is gonna be this guy.

827
00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 1: You know, Anthony Richmond will get a chance to show you,

828
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 1: but I've not seen it. And now you're talking about

829
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 1: three plus years into his NFL career. He just hasn't

830
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: played enough, man, and that's a really difficult thing. So yeah,

831
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 1: when it comes down to it, Daniel Jones ex giant

832
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. He's gonna be the quarterback.

833
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,480
Speaker 3: But what comes down for him? Can he stay healthy?

834
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 3: And I just had to look up his hand size,

835
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,879
Speaker 3: since you decided to swipe Kenny Pickett before nine born

836
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 3: seven five inches falls within the range. So the fact

837
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 3: that he fumbles the ball a lot stump much more problematic.

838
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 3: We can't just equate that to hand size. But when

839
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 3: Jones has been on the field, we go back a

840
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 3: couple of years ago before he got paid, and everybody

841
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 3: gets mad, it's not your money, shut up?

842
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: Is that?

843
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 3: The The thing with Jones was we're gonna build around

844
00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 3: and we saw enough proof of concept with Dable that

845
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,760
Speaker 3: he was gonna take that next step forward. Right, maybe

846
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 3: the numbers would fall in line, but you played good,

847
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:09,240
Speaker 3: operationally efficient football and your td'd interception ratio was okay.

848
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,000
Speaker 3: When Saquon Barkley was healthy and all of those things. Well,

849
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 3: now you got Jonathan Taylor. As you mentioned, you look

850
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,919
Speaker 3: at all these wide receivers. You also have a very

851
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 3: interesting part for Shane Steichen is you don't know what

852
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 3: his length of time there is. I mean, Jim Orsay

853
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 3: tragically passed away. Right, He's a guy that had for

854
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 3: years wanted to do it his way, right, And you

855
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 3: saw that with Ballard, and they would bring in band

856
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 3: aid guys, veteran quarterbacks to try to move things along

857
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,479
Speaker 3: after the abrupt retirement of Andrew Luck. Right, we saw

858
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,880
Speaker 3: Matt Ryan, we saw Philip Erves, we saw these guys.

859
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 3: Well then they go the other way and you bring

860
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 3: in a guy and Anthony Richardson. To this point, the

861
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:52,800
Speaker 3: most damning thing from all the turnovers, health issues, protect yourself,

862
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 3: all of that stuff, is when he tapped out of

863
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 3: a game because he was tired. You're still trying to

864
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 3: win people back, including your coach, because you make him

865
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 3: look like an ass in that process.

866
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 1: What I would like to go out there, but I

867
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,440
Speaker 1: just want to sit down and play a couple of games. Yeah,

868
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna playing some Solitaire and then spider Solitaire, I

869
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 1: mean on next level and they'll be ready to go

870
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 1: back out. Spider tired right now.

871
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 3: So yeah, Richardson will start the first game, they said.

872
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 3: In the second game, that'll flop Daniel Jones.

873
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: He will be your quarterback. You cheat. Doctor Jones exit

874
00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:27,439
Speaker 1: al Valda Fresca, exit Swollen Dome. Speaking of quarterback, one

875
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 1: team said, hey, you gotta be patient with our guy. WTF,

876
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:34,959
Speaker 1: that's next Fox, Hey,
