26
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: what happened. Everyone.

27
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 4: The Ravens just don't want just decided they'd rather have

28
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 4: Tree Hendrickson two draft picks. I choose that too, all right, Yeah,

29
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 4: I would choose that too. You give me the option

30
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 4: Max Crosby, but I give you two first round picks

31
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 4: or Tree Hendrickson, I get two first round picks. Everybody's

32
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 4: I keep my first round picks. I'm choosing the B option. Absolutely,

33
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 4: any satan person would do that. Well, the Ravens did.

34
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 4: It wasn't wrong, was in there. It was within their

35
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 4: right to do that. But the fact is that they

36
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 4: just got cold feet. And I mean that's happens. It

37
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 4: happens in football when you make a trade that you

38
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 4: know it isn't official until until the day of.

39
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 2: The league year. Right.

40
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 4: We saw that as soon as the league year began,

41
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 4: the Rams and Chiefs announced their their their trade for

42
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 4: for Trey mcduffy. Like that's when it actually gets like

43
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 4: you know, chefter rap all those guys, like they they

44
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 4: announced the stuff. When it happens, doesn't mean it's official yet, Right,

45
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,839
Speaker 4: it's official on the first day of you know, four

46
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 4: pm on whatever it is at four pm or noon

00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 4: on on the first day of the the new Yeah,

48
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 4: and and they just they they just they're like, all right,

49
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 4: we don't want to do this anymore. So no, I

50
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 4: see the thing floating around where people talk about well

51
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 4: they you know, how do they fakel a physical?

52
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: Don't feel a physical? You can you can feel anybody.

53
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 2: It's not very pretty easy to fail someone in a physical.

54
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 4: Well, it was a third party doctors, the Cowboys, Uh,

55
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 4: there's a.

56
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 2: There.

57
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 4: Their doctor is one of the guys that is a

58
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 4: knee specialist. Right, A lot of people go Dallas to

59
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,679
Speaker 4: get you. They're need by him. And he looked at it.

60
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: He's eye. Yeah, you could determine if when you're talking about.

61
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 4: Degenerative problems in anybody part, the opinions can vary, right,

62
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 4: he can vary from yes, this is fine, no, it's

63
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 4: not well no, but but right, yes, but I mean

64
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,639
Speaker 4: you do whatever you want in a physical right, and

65
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 4: and and yeah, the doctor said a third party, I

66
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 4: don't really like the look of that knee. Well, they

67
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 4: can find a fourth doctor says they like the knee. Right,

68
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 4: you can determine however you want to determine it. And

69
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 4: they they decided they didn't want to move forward, so

70
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 4: well within their right, but let's not pretend that that

71
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 4: that there was anything more than them just getting cold feet.

72
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: Yes, and like, I'm with you that I would rather

73
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 2: have Trey Trey Henderson and the two ones. But I mean,

74
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 2: you know, you can't do it, man, you can't. You

75
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 2: can't back out. I'm with you.

76
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 4: I think it's ethically, it's it's a little because here's

77
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 4: the deal. I think about this, guys, and I put

78
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 4: this out on social media at Jeff Schwartz is like,

79
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 4: think about what happened after the Max Crosby trade. Right,

80
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 4: everyone else made moves based off of Max Crosby being

81
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,159
Speaker 4: off the market. Right, So the Cowboys traded for pass rushers. Right,

82
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 4: Other teams made moves and fre Agency. Other teams did this,

83
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 4: and that they all everyone planned around Crosby being traded

84
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 4: the Raiders. By the way, it sound like a billion

85
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 4: dollars worth of contracts on the first day of fregency,

86
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 4: all around the idea, now they have money to pay

87
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 4: to pay Crosby. But they they made their roster around

88
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 4: the idea that Crossby was not going to be there anymore. Right,

89
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 4: they made their roster around the idea that they don't

90
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 4: have that first round pick anymore, right, and then all

91
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 4: of a sudden it's it's like, no, actually he's back now,

92
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 4: So it's not that show as the Raiders it.

93
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 2: Does a little bit. Now.

94
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 4: I think they're fine with in the end. You know,

95
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 4: you get to keep a guy like that. It's okay

96
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 4: to keep a guy like that. It's not the worst

97
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 4: in the world. But everyone else who met I want

98
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 4: to Crosby or the Raiders want to get rid of them,

99
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,359
Speaker 4: or even Crossby about how angry Crosby is the situation.

100
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 4: It just screwed everyone else, right, It just didn't screw

101
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 4: the race, you know, it just the whole league. Anyone

102
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 4: that wanted him, anyone who had rusted around him. They

103
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 4: couldn't do it because they thought he was off the market. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

104
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 4: it uh, it messed everything up, man, it really did. Now,

105
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 4: that was the story, the biggest story of free agency,

106
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 4: But there were others. The second biggest story to me

107
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 4: is the over payment of players. The cap goes up, and.

108
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 3: There were there were a number of players that got

109
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 3: huge contracts. Jalen Phillips from Your Squad, the Carolina Panthers.

110
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 2: Got one hundred and twenty million dollars.

111
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 4: Now.

112
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 3: I love Jalen Phillips as a dude, right, Like, he's

113
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 3: a great guy and he's a good football player. The Eagles,

114
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 3: I could tell you budgeted twenty four year. I mean

115
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 3: they were that's kind of what they were looking for

116
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 3: looking to do. Dude, one hundred and twenty million. I

117
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 3: just say, God blessed my brav. So I textas to

118
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 3: my buddies. You know, I got a good life, right,

119
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 3: I'm not a I got a good life.

120
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 4: I'm not really jealous so much, but I turned into

121
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 4: a hay nass former player man on the Fregency day,

122
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,520
Speaker 4: I'm like, I see these contracts, I'm like, jeez, man,

123
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:33,239
Speaker 4: where was that money when I was a free agent? Okay,

124
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 4: I was a fragid in twenty fourteen. Okay, the cap

125
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 4: has gone up two hundred million dollars since then, two

126
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 4: hundred million dollars. It was like one hundred and thirty

127
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 4: three million, and now it's three hundred million. And and

128
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 4: you know, and you see that, you know the contracts

129
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 4: now for what would have been sort of where I,

130
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 4: you know, sliding as a guard. And look, you want

131
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 4: to say it's too much money, and I always you know,

132
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 4: push back and say, heyy a couple of those guys.

133
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: One is that it's not our money, right, so you

134
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 2: know it's not your money, not my money.

135
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 4: And two, the contracts are not what they appear to be.

136
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 4: So when the actual numbers come in, uh, you know that,

137
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 4: you know, the Jaylor Phillips still four years and one

138
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 4: twenty and I haven't seen actual numbers for the deal.

139
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 4: It's not four years old twenty more dollars, right, like

140
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 4: it's it. So that's just just just think about that, right,

141
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 4: It's not gonna be exactly what is reported, and so

142
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 4: just just remember that when you think about, uh, all

143
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 4: these contracts, right, they're not they're not exactly what they

144
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 4: what they appear to be.

145
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 2: They're not.

146
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 3: But everything's relative, right, So what wasn't what wasn't appeared

147
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 3: to be in the past, it's more now. So while

148
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 3: you're not gonna go you know, the guaranteed portion.

149
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 2: I have to look at it. I don't remember it

150
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 2: off the top of my head. But the in totality,

151
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 2: I mean, he probably won't see one twenty, but he's

152
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 2: going to see ninety and probably Yeah, I mean I

153
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: mean that's legitimate. That's big time big time money like

154
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 2: Romeo Dobbs gets twenty million a year from the Patriots.

155
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 3: And here's the thing, the cap money for him, the

156
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 3: cap is a very real deal. And I'll say I

157
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 3: had a conversation with someone in the league and we

158
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 3: were talking about what was going on, and it was like,

159
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 3: that's why bad teams stay bad, And it's true, going

160
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 3: out and spending like drunken salers.

161
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, well it certainly I think that that it feels

162
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 4: that way, right, that the teams continue to stay bad

163
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 4: because they but one swing or two. I mean you

164
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 4: you mentioned jailn Phllips that the Panthers didn't go that

165
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 4: harder fregency, right, they went hard.

166
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 2: Right when you overpay, now it hampers or what else

167
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 2: you're trying to do from a cap standpoint, right, No,

168
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 2: I'm with I agree with that.

169
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: You know, the overpayment, it's just part of fregency, right,

170
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 4: like you're just gonna if you get there. That's why

171
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 4: I made this case for a long time. Now, you know,

172
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 4: we just don't get the same players in f agency

173
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 4: anymore that we used to get, in my opinion, because

174
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 4: teams just resigned their own guys because it's cheaper. And

175
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 4: just it's just better for I think morale and team

176
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 4: building and everyone. But also too, teams just now trade

177
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 4: for guys, right, If they want a guy like Digit,

178
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 4: going trade for him, They're gonna trade for him.

179
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 3: It's like the Rams get McDon I thought the Rams

180
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 3: had the best Listen, they're ridiculous.

181
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 2: You had McDuffie.

182
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 3: Their only weakness was your secondary and they Watson too,

183
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:45,239
Speaker 3: But you had McDuffie tonight, team, I mean, that's that's ridiculous,

184
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 3: exactly what they needed.

185
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is, And so I I do think that

186
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 4: you know that that's gonna be a fun team the track.

187
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,120
Speaker 2: I mean, the Rams needed one specific thing. They did

188
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: it right.

189
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 4: They're the favor for the Super Bowl now is I

190
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 4: think they should would be? And that was report. Look,

191
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 4: I don't want to be I don't want to be

192
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 4: mean about this. The insider reporting sometimes kind of frustrates me.

193
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 4: There's a couple of people that seem to just stir

194
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 4: the pot a lot. You know, there's a tweet goes

195
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 4: out yesterday. You know the Rams and Patriots are interested

196
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 4: in a J Brown. The Rams part was new right, Only

197
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 4: three hours later the same person was like, ah, never mind,

198
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 4: not Eagles don't want.

199
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 2: To trade A J. Brown anymore.

200
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 4: You know that's kind of felt like you're just engagement farming,

201
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 4: like like what what so that comes out and then

202
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 4: all of a sudden like the Eagles like you know

203
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,079
Speaker 4: that three hours beforehand you decided to put that out there,

204
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 4: and like you just you know some of the stuff.

205
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 2: It's just it's a little frustrating.

206
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 4: When you follow along as much as I think we

207
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 4: all do, Like I just he's not engagement farm.

208
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 2: Please, you have enough followers. You don't need to do that. Well,

209
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 2: you know what it is.

210
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 3: In fairness to some of those people, right, You're got

211
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,079
Speaker 3: you got your trusted sources within the league, and you

212
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 3: got your agents, right, and this is your agents are

213
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 3: trying to drum up something. Oh I know, and you

214
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,719
Speaker 3: know better than I mean, listen, I'm not talking to you.

215
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 3: I'm talking to more of the people and you know

216
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 3: this that agents are trying to jump stuff up and

217
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 3: a lot of times what you're getting is late, right,

218
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 3: like it comes out like the team at all decide

219
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 3: Like I could tell you from an AJ Brown standpoint.

220
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,199
Speaker 2: Because I got the whole story.

221
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 3: That basically they couldn't get how he wasn't going to

222
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 3: get didn't get what he wanted. He wanted the two

223
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 3: ones or something close to that, like he had like

224
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 3: the ad serious talks with New England. New England wanted

225
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 3: to give up one one. It was like a one

226
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 3: in a three. How we wanted next year's one, not

227
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 3: this year's one. This year's one's thirty one next year one.

228
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 3: Next year's one could be a lot higher. And it

229
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 3: just never came to pass. Right Like New England wasn't

230
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 3: going to wasn't going to budge, they weren't going to

231
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 3: go two ones. There was another AFC AFC team that

232
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 3: was kind of interested and talked about, you know, maybe

233
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 3: we give up two ones. Ultimately they never did. They

234
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 3: wanted sweeteners and everything else. And then they went to

235
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 3: A J. Brown earlier in the week and we're like, listen,

236
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 3: we're probably not going to get what we wanted. Like

237
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 3: you know, I know you want out, but listen, you

238
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 3: like it here. I know your issues with the offense.

239
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 3: We have a new oc common We're going to get

240
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 3: Jalen uh more of an effective throwing quarterback to what

241
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 3: you know would shoot you. Let you know, let's you know,

242
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 3: let's let's go for it. Let's go one more shot.

243
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 3: When you're forty million dollar dead cap it, I can't

244
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 3: trade you for anything less than what we need, something

245
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 3: substantive like the two ones or something close to it.

246
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 2: And then AJ agreed good. They had a good conversation

247
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 2: with them, and you know, and then yesterday all that

248
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 2: stuff kind of was out there and he was like,

249
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 2: you know, I thought we were cool, and the team's like, yeah, no,

250
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,440
Speaker 2: we are cool. You're not going anywhere.

251
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 3: So but I think that information filters late late to

252
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 3: the insiders. It's right information like the Rams were interested,

253
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 3: but they were trying to steal them. They weren't offered them.

254
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 3: They weren't offered the Eagles anything close to what they wanted.

255
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 4: That makes sense. The Asian part of it obviously plays

256
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 4: a big role. I mean, look at the reports of

257
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 4: people signing and then in the tweet of them signing

258
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 4: including the agent name, like what what are we doing here?

259
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 4: Like I love my agent death Derek is fantastic, but

260
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 4: I don't tagging him like in the tweet of me

261
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 4: signing somewhere. I think it is odd, but nonetheless, like

262
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 4: a deal negotiated by Jeff Schwartz, I'm like, I mean, okay.

263
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, if you're the agent, you go

264
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 2: of course.

265
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 4: Of course, I mean that's why it's done obviously. I

266
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 4: mean I'm not I don't know why it's done. I

267
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 4: just I find the whole thing interesting. But nonetheless, I

268
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 4: get the idea that things coming late. It's just, you know,

269
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 4: I do wonder with prediction markets and ways to wager

270
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 4: on this stuff. Now you know sort of the ethical

271
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 4: nature of doing that right where.

272
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 2: You know, if I don't even think about that, dude,

273
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 2: like wow.

274
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 4: Right, Like so I told you last week I put

275
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 4: a little tiny bit of money, not a lot on

276
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 4: AJ Brown to uh, to be a patriot. But imagine

277
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 4: yesterday if you read that report from a trust NFL insider,

278
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 4: I'm sure the RAMS took a ton of money yesterday

279
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 4: on on on A J. Brown, Right, And and then

280
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 4: obviously two hours later it's like, oh, never mind, never mind,

281
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 4: I don't it's not they're easily looking to keep them. Again,

282
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 4: it's probably a minuscule amount of money. And I'm not

283
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 4: saying that we have to do everything around making sure

284
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 4: people keep their money. And you know, I'm not one

285
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 4: of those people, right, And it's your money. You feel

286
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 4: free to do what you want with it. If you

287
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 4: want to gamble, you can gamble, right. But but the

288
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 4: fact is, like there there, there is part of that

289
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 4: in my in the back of my mind when I'm like,

290
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, people manipulating the market, are they

291
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 4: trying to make them those extra money?

292
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 2: This way?

293
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 4: There's the thought of that in my head. Maybe I

294
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 4: gambled too much. It's certainly fair as well, but you know,

295
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 4: like that, like I didn't even think of that. It's crazy, right,

296
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 4: Like think about a trust. The NFL inside are put

297
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 4: out right like that, the rams are considering training for

298
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 4: a J.

299
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 2: Brown.

300
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 4: I would imagine that all those markets I can probably

301
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 4: check took a lot of money on the rams and

302
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 4: then three hours later, oops, never mind, never mind.

303
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah. But like but here's the thing just

304
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 2: runs in my head. Sometimes you can't like those prediction markets.

305
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 2: I mean, stuff, stuff falls through all the time. I

306
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 2: know you know better than anybody. And I'm not talking

307
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 2: I'm not directed to view, but real quick, let me

308
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 2: just do this. The thought so much has to happen

309
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 2: right to get a trade done.

310
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's one out of out of the

311
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 3: you know, one hundred conversations that actually bear fruit.

312
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, and you get the draft picks and and

313
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:04,120
Speaker 4: and you pass physical obviously getting back to that quickly, man,

314
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what I remember. Uh I went to uh,

315
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 4: I went to the Giants, right, and I signed this

316
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 4: big contract and I was healthy, so there was no

317
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,679
Speaker 4: need to really do a sense of physical But like

318
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 4: the physical they gave me was like basically uh oh

319
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 4: oh no, you look good, okay done, you know, like

320
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 4: teams can pass you if they want. I was medically fine.

321
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:25,880
Speaker 4: There was no they were going to find aything wrong

322
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 4: with me anyways. But like the idea that like, you know,

323
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 4: these these physicals are like you know, these intense there

324
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 4: they can be as easy as hard as you want

325
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 4: to make them.

326
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 2: These teams can do that. And so it's just so funny.

327
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 2: I had this talk this week about physicals bad and

328
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 2: like the whole just no one has any idea really

329
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 2: how they work. And people say you know things about them,

330
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 2: and it's like that's not that's not it's not how.

331
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,719
Speaker 2: This is not how this business works. But you're right

332
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 2: about the business of of sharing stuff. The agents share stuff,

333
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 2: teams share stuff, and This whole week was just about that.

334
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 3: What was uh what explain people the physical what happens

335
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 3: during the day.

336
00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 4: It depends, It just depends on what on what on

337
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 4: what it is. So like, you know, the combine we're

338
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 4: talking about the comrade, the physical. The combine is the

339
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 4: most intense thing you're going to do your entire career. Right,

340
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,160
Speaker 4: You're gonna get uh your You go to five rooms

341
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 4: with six teams in each room, and they have your

342
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 4: medical records, and they poke and they prod and they

343
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,159
Speaker 4: like they test every body part, you know, like a

344
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 4: physical you would get, you know at a doctor's office

345
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 4: once a year, right, except dad and the heart testing now,

346
00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 4: which is important, right, and so you know, and then

347
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 4: then you get imaging done if you need to write.

348
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 4: When you're at a agent physical, now they have your

349
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 4: medical records from your former team right now. They don't

350
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 4: have that, by the way, until you know, you sign somewhere. Right,

351
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 4: So like let's say let's do Jeneral films for example.

352
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 4: You know, the Panthers don't call the Eagles beforehand and

353
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 4: say hey, give me these medical records. They can't do that,

354
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 4: so you don't have those until now. On a trade

355
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 4: you can do that, and a trade can share information

356
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 4: and you can go to a third party doctor, which

357
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 4: appears Max Crosby did in a situation. But you know,

358
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 4: most physicals are just like when you get traded or

359
00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 4: when you sign as a free agent, they're just like, oh, okay,

360
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 4: you look good.

361
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 2: All right, you're done. Like you know, they have your

362
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 2: medical records right now.

363
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 4: For Max Crosby, obviously they had to get you know,

364
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 4: just had surgery, so you have to get MRI like

365
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 4: you get imaging done. But for most of the physicals,

366
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 4: if you are healthy, if you are healthy, it's it's

367
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,399
Speaker 4: just more of a of an eye check. Oh okay,

368
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 4: you're you're good. I mean, I have your medical records.

369
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 4: They know if you're healthier or not. And so if

370
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 4: you're if you're healthy. Now, if you sign a big

371
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,880
Speaker 4: contract again, they might do a little bit more. If

372
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,400
Speaker 4: you're gonna get paid a ton of money and you've

373
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 4: had a history of a back injury or a knee

374
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 4: injury or shoulder jury, they might do some some imaging. Right,

375
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 4: that's certainly fair to do that if we're gonna pay

376
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 4: you a lot of money. But if you're a healthy player,

377
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 4: if you've been healthy for four years and you sign

378
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 4: a big contract like like like Tred McDuffie's been healthy

379
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 4: his entire career, the Rams probably didn't give him the

380
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 4: same physical max Cross we got from the Ravens. Right,

381
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 4: It's just there's no need to do that if you've

382
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,919
Speaker 4: been healthy your whole career. And so they're just various

383
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 4: team by team, situation by situation. There's no one sort

384
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 4: of uniform physical you get as a player. But if

385
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 4: you're healthy entering your that year, you never ride injury.

386
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 4: They're not spending they're not wasting time on imaging for

387
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 4: you and doing intense blood of work.

388
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 2: You're healthy. Why would they bother doing that? That's right,

389
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 2: that's exactly right. All right, let's take a quick t Oh,

390
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 2: we'll come back. So much to unpack with free agency.

391
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 2: We got a lot of hoops to discuss, all kinds

392
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 2: of stuff. The World Baseball Classic. Oh but I can't

393
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 2: cannot wait for that game tomorrow night. Oh baby, Oh

394
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 2: my god, that's gonna be a great game.

395
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 4: I want I want to talk to the World Baseball Classic.

396
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 4: We get a chance, I got some Yes, I love it,

397
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 4: I love it.

398
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 3: But first before we do that, when we come back,

399
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 3: there's more free agency and perhaps one of the late

400
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 3: signings of the week could have the biggest impact other

401
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 3: than Trent McDuffie, and he's a quarterback. We'll discuss it.

402

431
00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 3: All right, brother, one of the sonnings love and I

432
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 3: just think it's going to work. Is Kyler Murray to

433
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 3: Minnesota goes to a quarterback and a whisperer or.

434
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? So it's interesting, right.

435
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 4: I think it depends on how you feel about JJ

436
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 4: McCarthy because are we Are we done with them?

437
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 2: Are you? Are you done with McCarthy? I never liked him,

438
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 2: So that's just me, okay, easy enough, it's fair because

439
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 2: you know, very simply, if you're done with McCarthy, this

440
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 2: is a good deal in my opinion. If you are

441
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 2: not done with McCarthy, then the deal makes really no

442
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 2: sense if you're Minnesota, right, because Kyler Murray is not

443
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 2: gonna sit behind JJ McCarthy, right, he's not now. It

444
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 2: might be a short term deal, but the fact is

445
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 2: he's better than JJ McCarthy. And he has his faults, absolutely,

446
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 2: but he's better than JJ McCarthy. And so this to

447
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 2: me signals that they're finished with McCarthy, which is a

448
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 2: totally fun essential to make accept.

449
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 4: It feels like, you, you know, six starts like are

450
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:02,880
Speaker 4: we really are we done with that? Are we done

451
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 4: with McCarthy now? And if you are, you are that's

452
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 4: again they fired the general manager. It feels very likely

453
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 4: that this decision was around that, right, that the McCarthy.

454
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 2: Just not the guy.

455
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 4: And you know, you know immediately I played with guys, dude,

456
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 4: I knew immediately right at the young player, get him

457
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 4: in the in the first huddle, and.

458
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,360
Speaker 2: You're like, oh boy, this is not gonna work down.

459
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 4: There's guys, by the way, but there's guys that I

460
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 4: played with as rookie, like I played with I remember

461
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 4: Eric Fisher with the Chiefs.

462
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 2: The left handle first pick.

463
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,400
Speaker 4: Overall means that it was a bad year for the draft.

464
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 4: I mean, Lane wound up being a Hall of Famer

465
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 4: from that early in that class, and he was six

466
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 4: flight Eagles but for the most part, that top of

467
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,120
Speaker 4: that draft was not the best draft in the world.

468
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:42,679
Speaker 4: And then they draft to Eric Fisher. I probably him

469
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 4: was a rookie. I didn't think he'd make it, buddy,

470
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 4: and he did, so you know, he made it. He

471
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 4: was a good football player. So you know, both things

472
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 4: can be true, right. There's times when you use guys

473
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 4: you're just like, this guy just doesn't have it. And

474
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,479
Speaker 4: there's times that guys do have it right eventually, But

475
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 4: for a lot of ninety percent of the time you're like,

476
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 4: a that's not gonna work, and it doesn't work, And so.

477
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 2: There's it's certainly fair to think that they believe it's.

478
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 4: Just not gonna happen. But he also has six starts.

479
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 4: Yeah really, you really don't even know quite yet. But

480
00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,120
Speaker 4: this signals to me that that they know that he's

481
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 4: not their guy and they're trying to find a better answer.

482
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 4: And Colin Murray, look whatever you think about him, and

483
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 4: I think there's things he certainly needs to work on

484
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 4: as a quarterback. No better place to do it than here,

485
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,440
Speaker 4: And I think this is going to be a really

486
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 4: a slam dunk for him and for the Vikings. Think

487
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 4: about the coach, the coordinator, and you know the ability

488
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 4: to you know receivers, the receivers, the offensive line. It

489
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 4: feels like really a very good signing for for both

490
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 4: Murray and the Vikings. Considering the thing about the options

491
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 4: right now, Uh, Malik willis to me, no chance, not

492
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 4: a single I would not spend as much of my

493
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:01,360
Speaker 4: as Dolphins did on him.

494
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 2: I want to. I do want to talk about him

495
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 2: in a few minutes. Yeah, we'll get to.

496
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 4: But you got the best guy on the market, man,

497
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 4: Like what what what a what a what a what

498
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:12,959
Speaker 4: a great option?

499
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 2: Yeah?

500
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know you got koc who's a great quarterback

501
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 3: man and got an offense.

502
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,200
Speaker 2: It just it just works. Listen.

503
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,199
Speaker 3: I never got to McCarthy thing. I like him, Like, like,

504
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 3: I didn't have a problem taking him. I wouldn't taken

505
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,360
Speaker 3: him a high. But to me, you've got to develop them.

506
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 3: And they just handed him the job. And I never

507
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 3: understood that, not with where that team was. That team

508
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 3: had a lot of talent and you just gave him

509
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 3: the job.

510
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 2: And to me, the whole thing was it was faulty

511
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 2: from the start.

512
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,639
Speaker 4: Well, so the thing the only thing that frustrates me

513
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 4: sometimes with these decisions. Is that, Like, if you drop

514
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 4: a quarterback who needs to develop, you have to spend

515
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 4: time to develop him. Like, again, McCarthy might never be good.

516
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 4: I don't know, but the fact is he never got

517
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 4: a chance to be good, right, I mean, Anthony Rickerson

518
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 4: probably was never gonna be good. The fact is he

519
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 4: really never got a chance to be good, right. I mean,

520
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 4: you draft these quarterbacks that need time. We all said

521
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 4: the dat, Okay, this guy needs time to think about

522
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,880
Speaker 4: that draft class. Really, he's the only one that needed time, right,

523
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:25,640
Speaker 4: you know, all the rest of that class had played

524
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 4: a ton of football, had thrown the ball a lot

525
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 4: in college. McCarthy needed time. They drafted a needed time

526
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 4: quarterback and did not give him time. That's frustrates to me.

527
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 4: And there's nothing wrong with getting out of that deal,

528
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 4: which absolutely got out of Murray's gonna be good man,

529
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,199
Speaker 4: I think, Look, is he gonna be you know, the

530
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:46,920
Speaker 4: best of the vision? I don't know, but this is

531
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 4: a think about where the vikings are right now. It's

532
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 4: a pretty good deal for them to get a guy

533
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 4: like Caylin Murray pay him next to nothing. Arizona's on

534
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 4: the hook for most of the money. Bring him in

535
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 4: that offense, bring him in with those weapons and just say, hey, buddy,

536
00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 4: you don't have to do much here, right, You're not

537
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,880
Speaker 4: required to do you know Arizona and Arizona you did

538
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 4: a lot for them. Right here, you want to do

539
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 4: all that, right, We're gonna run the football. We've got

540
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 4: an offensive line, we got weapons for you to throw

541
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,199
Speaker 4: the ball to, we got a defense, Like just just

542
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 4: play within yourself. You can make some special plays every

543
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 4: now and then, but you know, just and I think

544
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,439
Speaker 4: that's gonna unlock up probably a much better version of Calmer.

545
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 3: If he can just do that, he can stick to

546
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 3: the plan, right, and you got I mean, look, it's

547
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 3: on him to dedicate himself. He's gonna have every opportunity.

548
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:33,199
Speaker 3: You're you're in a great situation like this is to

549
00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 3: me when you kind of it's a great career reset

550
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 3: for him. He needed this, right, He's got to get salvaged.

551
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 3: I'll never forget spend a lot of time with Mike

552
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 3: Vic when he came to Philadelphia.

553
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 2: And he was like, man, I wish I knew.

554
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 3: When I first got in the league about how to

555
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 3: play quarterback, and I wish I had Andy Reid as

556
00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 3: my coach.

557
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 2: I mean.

558
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 4: Again, what times earlier. I love, you know, my career

559
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 4: I had and whatnot. But sometimes I look back and

560
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 4: I'm like what Michael Vick said, I'm like, if I

561
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 4: just like had my favorite offensive line coach as a

562
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 4: rookie off my offense line coach in Carolina was was great.

563
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 4: I love Maga Zuo, but you know, my offensive line

564
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 4: coach with the Chiefs was like the best offense I've had.

565
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 4: Just the whole system really worked for me. What he

566
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 4: taught like I would, and you just you don't. I

567
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 4: think the whole time, what if I just like think

568
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 4: get injured every year, I thinks I've gone for my career.

569
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 2: But yeah, we all have that.

570
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 4: And Kyler Murray gets an opportunity in year but six

571
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 4: seven to sort of like reinvent himself, and it's a

572
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 4: it's a it's a it's.

573
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 2: A pretty big you know, plus for.

574
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 4: Him to be able to have this opportunity, now I know,

575
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 4: I yeah, I think it saved his career.

576
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 2: I really do saved his career. And you're he's got

577
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 2: dedicate himself. It's got to do it, all right, So

578
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 2: let's let's would do well. Ext I'd say, we're going

579
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 2: to go through all the teams and kind of look,

580
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 2: take a look at what they did.

581
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 3: We'll continue to segment. Let's go Buffalo. DJ Moore in the.

582
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 2: Big trade and Bradley Chubb got money yesterday. They needed

583
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 2: the edge. What did you think of Buffalo? Man?

584
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 4: It feels like, uh, you know, they're trying to sort

585
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 4: of patch these holes in their roster best they can

586
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 4: because they just haven't drafted well wide receiver and at

587
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 4: a defensive end, right And I know they just haven't

588
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 4: done it. So you try to patch it up through

589
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,719
Speaker 4: free agency, and you talked about overpaying guys. I mean

590
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 4: that's what That's what's happening right now. Right, They're just

591
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 4: it's just it. That's where they are at the moment.

592
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 4: It doesn't feel like they got much better, right, Like

593
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 4: if you think about DJ Moore, dude, I mean, you know,

594
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 4: if you think about like what you know, what you

595
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 4: have to do to get better and to win in

596
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 4: this league. I don't know if they got now bodies wise,

597
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 4: you have more is better than what they've had. How

598
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 4: reliable is he? Look, Chubb is better than what they've had. Again,

599
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 4: how reliable? I mean they tried you know, patching is

600
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 4: over with von Miller once, right, like let's just go

601
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 4: get an older player, not different, I think, different parts

602
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 4: of their careers, but still the idea was the same, right,

603
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 4: And it's just it's just they didn't do all how

604
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 4: much better they got in this you know, they're not

605
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 4: the only team that in the AFC that I didn't

606
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 4: think got much better right now, but with how much

607
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 4: sort of pressure has been on them, with Mahomes being hurt,

608
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,720
Speaker 4: right like in their now division, with with you know,

609
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:43,479
Speaker 4: getting better with the Patriots, this is what happens when

610
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 4: you just don't draft well, right, yeah, this and this

611
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 4: is it. It's it's a good example of this, right.

612
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 4: You look at at the best teams the NFL over

613
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 4: the years, and you look at you know, the Chiefs,

614
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 4: They've drafted very well. The Eagles are drafted well. Look

615
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 4: at what Seattle did, right, They drafted very well.

616
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 2: When they when they keep their picks well.

617
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 4: And it's just by the way, the Rams, by the way,

618
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 4: have drafted very well as well. You know, I'm look

619
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 4: at the at the drafts right now, like you know,

620
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 4: so to twenty twenty four, Keon Coleman Cole Bishop, who

621
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 4: starts for them at safety, Like that's about it. Ray Davis.

622
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 4: Does Dayne Carter play for them? I don't even know.

623
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 4: He's played eleven games in two years, it looks like

624
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 4: but Ray Davis is okay running back? That that that

625
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 4: that's the entire draft. Like who production right now? You know,

626
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 4: twenty twenty three Kincaid who has been good, but I

627
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 4: don't know if he's been like as good as people

628
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 4: thought he might be.

629
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 2: No, Dalson Knox has been just as good. Oh, Cyrus Torrens,

630
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 2: who's the starting guard for them? That's good?

631
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 4: And then that's it, Like a couple four of the

632
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 4: guys don't really play for them. Look at twenty twenty

633
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 4: two Elam James Cook, home run right, Bernard Good, So

634
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 4: like this is a better draft, Shakiir that's a better Bedford.

635
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 4: Like that that's a much better draft than twenty two

636
00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 4: twenty one? Is Russo Spencer Brown the right tackle? You know,

637
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 4: but it's not not just not enough, dudes, epinessa.

638
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 2: It's not enough.

639
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 3: And then they've missed free agency, they have failed and

640
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 3: you know it's the fire McDermott and keep being go figure.

641
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 4: So that's just that's just the way it seems to

642
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 4: be for for them right now. And you know when

643
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 4: you look at like a team like Seattle even this draft,

644
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 4: like think about the draft that so Gray's Abel right guard,

645
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 4: who's emerging as one of the better girls the NFL.

646
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 4: Imn Yori, who's like what second best safety in the NFL.

647
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,719
Speaker 4: Arroyo who's a tight end who's really helped them this year.

648
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 4: It's not number one, but you know, you know, you know,

649
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 4: but that's an impact player right the year before Byron Murphy,

650
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 4: Uh you know, haynes A. J. Bardner is another tight

651
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 4: end man. And the year before that with Witherspoon, JSN,

652
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 4: Derek Hall, sharbon A Bradford.

653
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 3: You could go every good team you look at the draft,

654
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 3: not free agency, think.

655
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 2: About without this.

656
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 4: This is twenty twenty two, Charles Cross left tackle MafA

657
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 4: just got a huge deal, Keth Walker's got a huge deal,

658
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 4: Lucas right tackle Kobe Bryant got a huge deal, Rek

659
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 4: wooland like this is just they hit, you gotta hit

660
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,799
Speaker 4: home runs. Man and and Seettle did that year every

661
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 4: year and Buffalo just hasn't done that. So it's a

662
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 4: whole thing with Buffalo.

663
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:20,080
Speaker 2: It's not just.

664
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 4: One thing, right, It's that they're trying to chase the

665
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,320
Speaker 4: success that you have because they haven't drafted terribly.

666
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 2: Well, all right, let's say.

690
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:14,280
Speaker 3: Five to three, so a little two tight. The bats

691
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 3: still haven't really come alive since the first game. Only

692
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 3: eight hits last night against Canada. And you know that

693
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:29,040
Speaker 3: staff isn't any good. They got the Dominican Republic, which

694
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,800
Speaker 3: pounded Korea ten nothing on Sunday.

695
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,720
Speaker 4: Buddy, Maybe if the USA, you know, took that stick

696
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 4: that's up their butt out a little bit and like

697
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 4: actually had fun playing baseball and looked like they actually

698
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 4: enjoy being in this environment, they hit the ball better.

699
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,919
Speaker 4: You know, there's one team who's having the most fun

700
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 4: of their lives, so that's Dominican Republican. All they're doing

701
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,799
Speaker 4: is hitting monster home runs and scoring ten runs a game,

702
00:36:56,840 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 4: like they're having the time of their lives. And sad

703
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 4: we won't even shake hands with our opponent, which is fine.

704
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,320
Speaker 4: I get oh or tough USA, USA.

705
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 7: Tough guys, I'm not gonna shake the hand of my

706
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 7: own teammates because I'm gonna show how tough we are.

707
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 7: And then I remember every other countries dancing, singing, throwing

708
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,120
Speaker 7: the bat, having the time of their lives, and we're

709
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:17,760
Speaker 7: just uptight.

710
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,399
Speaker 2: Man, have fun, have some.

711
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 3: Fun sports, drink espresso, have some fun, men and have

712
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 3: their Almoni jacket, have some fun.

713
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 4: Sports are fun. You don't have to be the tough

714
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 4: guy each every day. Look, I mean, yo, like we

715
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,799
Speaker 4: had someone a hero, right, someone you know, steal team six,

716
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 4: come and talk to the team before the game. I

717
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:49,879
Speaker 4: don't know like how that applies, but okay, and that's

718
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 4: a you can certainly do that as a motivational tactic.

719
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 4: And the other guys are just dancing and singing and

720
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 4: having a great time in the locker om before the game.

721
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 4: Like maybe that's why we can't hit the baseball, right,

722
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,360
Speaker 4: Like you know, it's just to me, it's about we

723
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,719
Speaker 4: look like we are supposed to win and we're uptight.

724
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:07,319
Speaker 2: And we have this like again, like.

725
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 4: I I I totally understand the tough guy thing. I

726
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 4: get it, but like to not just like shake the

727
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 4: hand or give adapt to like your boy who you

728
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 4: play with all year long. If you're cal Rawley. To me,

729
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,880
Speaker 4: I think that's weird ant man, Like, I think it's odd,

730
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 4: Like he's your teammates, man, Like, hey, bub what's up, bro,

731
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 4: let's go, let's play. Like I think the USA super uptight.

732
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 4: I think they went into this thinking, you know, they

733
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 4: know they're the favorite, slight favorite and Dominican Republic and

734
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 4: it's gonna be a great matchup against Schimes with that lineup.

735
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 4: They got its just like show some fun, dudes, like

736
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 4: you have some fun, man, have some fun. It's it's

737
00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 4: it's a it's a it's an exhibition, and it's it's

738
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 4: it matters right you want to have the crown.

739
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 2: But like, man, we look up tight, buddy. Yeah, yeah,

740
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 2: it's true. You they really are.

741
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 3: Man, They're depressing and it's funny. It's like this is

742
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:11,280
Speaker 3: the world's greatest travel team and there is no flare,

743
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,240
Speaker 3: there's no fun, a lot of pressure.

744
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't disagree with you, buddy.

745
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:21,839
Speaker 4: I've watched Tautis throw his bat and celebrate that home

746
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 4: run there like fifteen hundred times, like he he had

747
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 4: a big home run, which he's been. I wonder the MVP,

748
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 4: he's got to be up there for MVP as he's

749
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 4: had a great. He's he's got a great worlds great

750
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 4: NBC so far, and just have the most fun man

751
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 4: like he big home run through his bat like celebrating

752
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 4: with his boys. No one cares, right because it's it's

753
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,720
Speaker 4: it's it's you know, you have big home run, celebrate

754
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 4: all you want and we're over here just like, Oh

755
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 4: the favorite still o TAWNI, I guess, and I guess

756
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 4: if you're to I mean Otani didn't judge the Tatis.

757
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 4: I mean Tatis has played better. This is more about

758
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 4: I think the odds of who's gonna win the pandemic

759
00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 4: pitching though, I think I feel that score one hundred

760
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 4: runs on them if they if they face each other.

761
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,840
Speaker 2: Uh in the end, So I wish that.

762
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 4: I wish the Dominican and UH in the U s

763
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 4: A were playing for the championship obviously, but they're not.

764
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,879

887
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,520

00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,279
Speaker 2: score the game, right, one of their dads. Yeah.

892
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,960

00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 4: official paper score book. That's like a rule of our side.

894
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 4: So one of the moms volunteered to do that. It's

895
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 4: not you don't have to do it. It's not like

Speaker 3: Wisconsin make it a little bit of a run. Michigan

919
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:30,080
Speaker 3: in the one Big Ten Final semifinal tips off one o'clock, Yeah,

920
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 3: which they're eleven and a half. I kind of like

921
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 3: Wisconsin with the points.

922
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 4: So I don't think we had a great comeback yesterday,

923
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:44,279
Speaker 4: but actually it's a big Winnesday season, and so like that,

924
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 4: the comeback was surprising just in general. And then they

925
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:50,239
Speaker 4: were down I think ten, twelve, fourteen points at some

926
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 4: point in second half, which you know, look, man, college basketball.

927
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:57,120
Speaker 4: To me, it's why it frustrates to me at times

928
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:02,840
Speaker 4: feels a lot like you're just watching to see which

929
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 4: team doesn't have a meltdown.

930
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:06,800
Speaker 2: It's it's it's not.

931
00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,640
Speaker 4: Often about teams playing better, it's about just one team

932
00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:13,799
Speaker 4: just drought. Yeah, and I think in this game was

933
00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:16,720
Speaker 4: actually just Illinois playing much better. But Illinois, I mean Washington,

934
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:19,280
Speaker 4: I mean Wisconsin. They beat Illinois this year, they beat Purdue.

935
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:23,360
Speaker 4: They also be Illinois another time. They beat Michigan already

936
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:27,080
Speaker 4: this season. They you know, they lost close to Nebraska,

937
00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 4: their viable team, you know, Michigan yesterday sort of same thing,

938
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 4: like they were a big at Ohio State and barely

939
00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 4: held on to win that game by four. I it's

940
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:38,840
Speaker 4: I think it's twelve and a half for Wisconsin. I

941
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:41,839
Speaker 4: probably would lean to, uh, what constant covering this guy

942
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 4: on where they win this game? But I think they

943
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:43,880
Speaker 4: cover this game.

944
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you can keep it close The other

945
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:52,840
Speaker 3: early game today is the SEC semi and that's Florida

946
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:54,280
Speaker 3: vander Belt.

947
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:55,840
Speaker 2: Florida's Nancy.

948
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,680
Speaker 3: I mean, that's one of the teams that I like,

949
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:01,840
Speaker 3: you know, depending on what their bracket looks like, with

950
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 3: their road looks like.

951
00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,640
Speaker 2: I like Florida a lot. For good Man, they could score.

952
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 4: I think that you you have to think Florida, especially

953
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 4: when they played yesterday.

954
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,319
Speaker 2: I think it's really impressive. You'll when teams are playing

955
00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,080
Speaker 2: their first game of the tournament, right like Florida yesterday

956
00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,239
Speaker 2: was the first game of the tournament. Katucky had already

957
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,120
Speaker 2: played twice. They'd want to believe two games ready, right, Yeah,

958
00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:27,319
Speaker 2: they'd be LSU and Missouri, and you know, Florida kind

959
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 2: of comes in cold. They play those those those one

960
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 2: seeds get to play earlier day, which I kind of hate,

961
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 2: but I get they get more rest. I guess that's

962
00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 2: why they do it. I think it's I think it

963
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:38,719
Speaker 2: sets up for a failure. You play those guys at

964
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 2: twelve thirty. Yeah, I know, I don't know why they

965
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:43,200
Speaker 2: do it. Yeah, they get what they get three hours

966
00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:45,440
Speaker 2: of extra rest. Like, play them at seven o'clock. Why

967
00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,840
Speaker 2: would you want to play it? Rather or eleven eleven am.

968
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,160
Speaker 2: Eleven am. Why is my nam of Ohio play at

969
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 2: eleven am? Or what are you doing?

970
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 4: I hate it? But they look good yesterday. I think

971
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,360
Speaker 4: that they they probably handle business again today.

972
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:06,560
Speaker 2: It's Vanderbilt. The other SEC semi is Arkansas against Ole

973
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 2: miss Ole, miss on a little bit of a heater

974
00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:18,120
Speaker 2: beat Alabama beat Georgia. Right, you beat Texas?

975
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,840
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, I mean I think a cup's coming for

976
00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 4: them tonight. Thirty seven last night. Yeah, I got a

977
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:30,319
Speaker 4: Arkansas ticket like twenty five to one to win the championship.

978
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 2: That's a good one. You know they have You know,

979
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 2: if you have a guy can get to thirty at night,

980
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,879
Speaker 2: you got a chance right in the postseason, you got

981
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:42,919
Speaker 2: a chance. Oh, I like it as a pizza bet.

982
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:47,000
Speaker 2: That's a good pizza bet. Yeah. The other big ten

983
00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 2: semi is Perdue and Ucla.

984
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 4: You still it has one of the guys got hurt yesterday.

985
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 4: I think we went to see the status of him

986
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:58,080
Speaker 4: before a winning for the Bruins last night. I know,

987
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:02,360
Speaker 4: I think that you still interesting. You know, they're a

988
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 4: team that is super talented, but just didn't play that

989
00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 4: way for a decent part of the season. They could

990
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:12,640
Speaker 4: not win away from home. They got bludgeoned on road games,

991
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:14,600
Speaker 4: and they've been so good at home this season. Obviously

992
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,719
Speaker 4: they're playing this I think it's in Chicago or Indianapolis,

993
00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 4: you know, so they're playing not in the you know,

994
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,600
Speaker 4: the West coast time zone. Seeing them win these games

995
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:23,719
Speaker 4: last couple of days as big because they again they

996
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,120
Speaker 4: they had struggled this season and last year on the road.

997
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 4: They're a team that depending on where they're put in

998
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 4: the first round, I think they're sweet sixteenth. If they're

999
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 4: on the West Coast for the first two games, they're

1000
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:36,400
Speaker 4: gonna be.

1001
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 2: Sweet sixteen team. Like they're they're they're good, dentse good.

1002
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 4: Obviously injury last night, we got to figure out, you

1003
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,960
Speaker 4: know what what uh what what the status is for

1004
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:44,879
Speaker 4: their for their big man.

1005
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:50,399
Speaker 2: But they they're they're a good squad man. They're good squad. Yeah,

1006
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:52,880
Speaker 2: I mean, so much is about to draw right, like

1007
00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:55,880
Speaker 2: you know who you got, So I'll be curious.

1008
00:52:55,920 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 4: I just don't I just don't know if I trust Purdue.

1009
00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 2: What's the line six and a half? It looks like

1010
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 2: m I like Purdue. I like Purdue in that game

1011
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:21,480
Speaker 2: the h then you got to two heavyweights all in

1012
00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:28,959
Speaker 2: the Big twelve final. This is unbelievable. Houston Arizona. That's

1013
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:34,319
Speaker 2: a great, great basketball game, especially after after last night.

1014
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:36,359
Speaker 2: Holy heck a bag what a what a finished last

1015
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:38,880
Speaker 2: night at Arizona game? Should I just can I just

1016
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 2: say something quick? Cyclones, the the the Big ten, a

1017
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:50,440
Speaker 2: Big twelve? What do your your Your glass court was

1018
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:54,400
Speaker 2: a failure? Okay, which I anyone could have figured any court, baby,

1019
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:57,360
Speaker 2: anyone could have figured that out. And then what do

1020
00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:58,759
Speaker 2: you do you you go to a.

1021
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 4: Wood court and you have the same crummy like gray

1022
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:06,400
Speaker 4: and black, boring court, like what I know it was

1023
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,279
Speaker 4: last I think it's last year's court that they just

1024
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,759
Speaker 4: used again. Yeah, but like, can we just have a

1025
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:14,760
Speaker 4: regular basketball court? Why can't things sometimes just be normal?

1026
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 4: Like just put a regular court on.

1027
00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,919
Speaker 2: The yellow t court which is a disaster. Of course

1028
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 2: it was disaster. It's a collide. You're playing class basketball court.

1029
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:32,879
Speaker 2: Of course it was a disaster. Yeah. Yeah, not good.

1030
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:39,279
Speaker 2: Oh my god, it's funny. Well people just try to

1031
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 2: dress everything up. Man, it's hysterical. Uh. And then then

1032
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:47,680
Speaker 2: you go up to the garden. I wish I was

1033
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 2: covering this one. This would be a good one Yukon

1034
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:56,360
Speaker 2: Saint John's. That's a heavyweight for the Big East Final

1035
00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:02,480
Speaker 2: from the Garden. Great one Johnny's at the Guarden. Wow.

1036
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 4: What I love about this again is I enjoy little

1037
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,279
Speaker 4: hatred and they seems to hate each other.

1038
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm beginning with the coaches.

1039
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:20,319
Speaker 4: I love it to no end that they hate each other. Early, great,

1040
00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 4: give me hatred and sports. We talked to this whole time, like,

1041
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:26,280
Speaker 4: give me some emotion, you know, give me some hatred.

1042
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:31,960
Speaker 2: Oh, it's the best, it really is. I mean, it's

1043
00:55:32,080 --> 00:55:37,040
Speaker 2: it's incredible stuff. Man. That's who do you so? Who

1044
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 2: do you like? So they split? Right?

1045
00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:42,799
Speaker 4: You call it one the first and the same times

1046
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:47,800
Speaker 4: one the second. I have that, right, I believe I

1047
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:51,120
Speaker 4: You know I probably lean toward Yukon.

1048
00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 2: Here, Yeah I do too. Probably probably you can't count

1049
00:55:56,719 --> 00:56:02,600
Speaker 2: out the count man Petitah at home. But the guarded

1050
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 2: Oh I know. Well, I mean those two coaches are

1051
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,600
Speaker 2: they can't stay at each other. It's the best. They can't.

1052
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:17,040
Speaker 2: They cannot. Good stuff. That's good. That's two great games.

1053
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,800
Speaker 2: And then and then the Saint John Dukon right here

1054
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:25,320
Speaker 2: on Fox. Wow, great stuff, it's.

1055
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:29,520
Speaker 4: Gonna be great it's gonna be fantastic. It's a great

1056
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:31,759
Speaker 4: day of ball. We got Duke Virginia tonight. Duke is

1057
00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 4: playing through the injuries. Man almost lost the Florida State

1058
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:40,880
Speaker 4: the other night. Making it happen, making plays like so

1059
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 4: there's eleven am today, Okay, they're playing Yale Cornell. Yale

1060
00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:48,680
Speaker 4: is trying to you know, be uh the IVY League

1061
00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:54,240
Speaker 4: representative like why why is that game at eleven am?

1062
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:56,480
Speaker 4: I mean maybe because you want to be on TV now.

1063
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:58,600
Speaker 4: The IVY League tends to play a little earlier games anyways,

1064
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 4: But like, well, you want staggered the games, I guess,

1065
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:04,280
Speaker 4: but that's so eleven and you're you're.

1066
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 2: I mean you got to yourself the game study you

1067
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:09,480
Speaker 2: like all of a sudden.

1068
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 3: I mean, if you're if you're playing any later, I

1069
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,280
Speaker 3: just think you gotta you you got you got Michigan.

1070
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:20,600
Speaker 4: I do like YO to cover that game and at

1071
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,640
Speaker 4: lay in three and a half. By the way, not

1072
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 4: that you know, I lost the Cornell last time and

1073
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 4: they played terribly. I think that that's a decent wager

1074
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 4: there for you, old Yale.

1075
00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:35,280
Speaker 2: Don't forget the America East. Uh eleven eleven am?

1076
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, I just think if you're trying to if

1077
00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:41,280
Speaker 4: you're trying to maximize your best team game in the postseason,

1078
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:43,840
Speaker 4: which you know it's been tough that the mid majors

1079
00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:49,120
Speaker 4: have been like ravaged by by upsets. That's just not again,

1080
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 4: like the best way to get in my opinion, to

1081
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:53,600
Speaker 4: play these early games. You don't I don't look to

1082
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,080
Speaker 4: get the best of of you know, it's not one

1083
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 4: of my Ohio loss.

1084
00:57:56,160 --> 00:58:00,640
Speaker 2: But it also doesn't help you know, show So what

1085
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:04,680
Speaker 2: do you think? I love this, man, this is great something.

1086
00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:07,560
Speaker 3: Tomorrow we'll have a couple of other finals and in

1087
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 3: selection Sunday and we.

1088
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 2: Know the brackets and it's like, yeah, let's go.

1089
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 3: But let me ask you, buddy, because there's a lot

1090
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,400
Speaker 3: of talk about this only as we get ready to

1091
00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 3: start this year's final, this year's NCAA tournament, about expanding

1092
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:27,800
Speaker 3: the tournament's at mating teams.

1093
00:58:28,760 --> 00:58:35,040
Speaker 4: No, no, these bubble teams stinker ready. We don't even

1094
00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:38,120
Speaker 4: more teams. We don't need more teams. We don't need

1095
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 4: more teams than the tournament.

1096
00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:41,080
Speaker 2: Do we want.

1097
00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:45,200
Speaker 4: A seventeen and sixteen team in the tournament? Get out

1098
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:48,200
Speaker 4: of here. No one wants that. I don't know you

1099
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:53,040
Speaker 4: don't think so. No, you can have. Now here's what

1100
00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:55,040
Speaker 4: you can do. If you did it to eighty teams,

1101
00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:57,080
Speaker 4: you would have.

1102
00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 2: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, the first round.

1103
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:14,880
Speaker 3: Ten games apiece. Second round is Saturday, Sunday, Monday. So

1104
00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 3: you're gonna add three days to the tournament. But we

1105
00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:19,320
Speaker 3: already get.

1106
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:21,920
Speaker 2: Three more days of wings and beer.

1107
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:29,720
Speaker 4: I was one year. I went to with some where

1108
00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:31,920
Speaker 4: I was working at. This is like seven years ago now.

1109
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:36,400
Speaker 4: I went to the tournament in Vegas and we sat

1110
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:41,160
Speaker 4: in a booth at the West Gate and one of

1111
00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:46,880
Speaker 4: my colleagues in four days, I think consumed twenty seven

1112
00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:52,600
Speaker 4: vodka red bulls in four days. It would be thirty seven,

1113
00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:55,680
Speaker 4: had a couple more days on everybody. It feels healthy

1114
00:59:56,800 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 4: to have that much alcohol that quickly in that many

1115
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 4: days in a row. But if that's what you would

1116
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:04,160
Speaker 4: like to do, if that's your if that's your, yeah,

1117
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna hold

1118
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:10,120
Speaker 4: you down to that. But does feel like that's not healthy.

1119
01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 2: And I've a red bull.

1120
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 4: Buddy just just like just making bats and pounding vocky

1121
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:19,880
Speaker 4: red bulls, and it didn't feel like the best thing

1122
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:21,440
Speaker 4: for your body. But hey, man, if that's what you

1123
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:23,160
Speaker 4: want to do, you know, be my guest. But my

1124
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 4: point is, like we do. We already get basketball Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

1125
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 4: It's not like we don't feel you know, the women. Yeah,

1126
01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:32,080
Speaker 4: you're playing. I don't like to play in I never

1127
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:33,840
Speaker 4: liked to play. It's dumb, and I hate that they

1128
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:36,920
Speaker 4: call it first call it the first round. It's not

1129
01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,440
Speaker 4: to be the first round. Is the first round on Thursday?

1130
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't like those games. They're not But.

1131
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 4: You're gonna you're gonna adding more of this though. I'm

1132
01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:50,440
Speaker 4: just telling you what's out there. Yeah, I don't. I

1133
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:51,120
Speaker 4: don't like it.

1134
01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm not against it.

1135
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,880
Speaker 3: If I get if I get tense, like you're adding

1136
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:03,120
Speaker 3: two substantive days right like now Tuesday and Wednesdays, the

1137
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 3: two playing games at night.

1138
01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:09,080
Speaker 4: You're giving me full days. To me, it's it's more

1139
01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:15,320
Speaker 4: about the idea that like, you know, I just the

1140
01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:19,360
Speaker 4: tournament should mostly be about trying to find a champion,

1141
01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:23,720
Speaker 4: not not a participation tournament. It feels like it's turn turn.

1142
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 4: You know, you had more teams just to participat like

1143
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:27,240
Speaker 4: you what, you still got.

1144
01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 3: A participation in tournament because you're gonna go. Do you

1145
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 3: still gotta go? Somebody's gonna win it. You're gonna go

1146
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:35,960
Speaker 3: through the gauntlet. Do we need to see Auburn in

1147
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:41,200
Speaker 3: the tournament? Listen, I'm not arguing that. You know, at

1148
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 3: some point, is it go from sixty four to eighty?

1149
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1150
01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:49,920
Speaker 3: I like, I feel it, But I mean, the bottom

1151
01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:52,560
Speaker 3: line is, you're still gotta it's still a gauntlet to

1152
01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 3: go through. You're just doing it. You're not doing it

1153
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:59,680
Speaker 3: for the bubble team. It's not like football, right where

1154
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:04,600
Speaker 3: those teams belong at least like Notre Dame should have

1155
01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 3: been in, Like there are a couple of teams should

1156
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 3: have been in, but we don't.

1157
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:09,960
Speaker 4: Have all the teams that should be in that are

1158
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:11,840
Speaker 4: already in, So we're just adding teams to.

1159
01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:13,920
Speaker 2: I agree, I like, I agree with you.

1160
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:17,560
Speaker 3: Like that's what that's the fundamental difference between where the

1161
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 3: tournament is in basketball and where the playoffs are in football. Football,

1162
01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:25,960
Speaker 3: there's not enough teams that mean, it's true for what

1163
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:28,919
Speaker 3: they want to do. Basketball, there's plenty of teams, yes,

1164
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:32,160
Speaker 3: but all you're doing is expanding the field to make

1165
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:35,640
Speaker 3: it bigger and more of a gauntlet.

1166
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:37,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1167
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:40,320
Speaker 4: I just I've never thought to myself, man, we just

1168
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:40,880
Speaker 4: we just.

1169
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 8: See more teams, all right, speaking of more coming up,

1170
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:52,240

1187
01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:17,400
Speaker 2: It's a good family night.

1188
01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:20,920
Speaker 4: Go out, get my Christmas tree, go to dinner, just

1189
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 4: enjoy before you have a weekend more full of football.

1190
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,520
Speaker 2: I don't want to have to worry about scheduling around

1191
01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:28,360
Speaker 2: when the NFL.

1192
01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 4: Is gonna be on that night. It's just my personal opinion.

1193
01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:33,240
Speaker 4: I don't feel like it's necessary to have football that night.

1194
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:37,280
Speaker 4: I enjoy the family time, I enjoy the preparation for Thanksgiving.

1195
01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:40,960
Speaker 4: I don't feel the need to have to watch football

1196
01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:43,400
Speaker 4: that night. If we watched it for months straight, we're

1197
01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:46,840
Speaker 4: gonna watch Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday as many games we

1198
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 4: can possibly consume. I don't think they need to. I

1199
01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:51,160
Speaker 4: don't think they need a game that night. I mean,

1200
01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:53,640
Speaker 4: you know, that's just I don't think they need game

1201
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:53,960
Speaker 4: that night.

1202
01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:59,600
Speaker 2: All Right, you're killed joy while I kill joy. I

1203
01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:01,520
Speaker 2: watch more up all than anybody. I'm like, I just

1204
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:05,520
Speaker 2: I don't think they need it. I love it more

1205
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:09,840
Speaker 2: more more. I think it's great. It's great.

1206
01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:13,120
Speaker 3: First of all, it's not really a family night than

1207
01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 3: like forens because the family is today Thanksgiving Day.

1208
01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:22,120
Speaker 4: I mean, for for for me, it has been a

1209
01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:24,920
Speaker 4: family knight. That's your tradition. So that's just that's just

1210
01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:29,040
Speaker 4: my person. Yeah, so that's just my person. It can

1235
01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:49,760
Speaker 2: that they'll be football out like on now, I would

1236
01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:53,360
Speaker 2: prefer it not to be a working night for me

1237
01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:57,920
Speaker 2: where it's the Eagles, but I love having the NFL football.

1238
01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:01,680
Speaker 3: So they're gonna do Wednesday night three games on Thursday,

1239
01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:07,360
Speaker 3: and they're gonna add a second Black Friday game. So

1240
01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:12,120
Speaker 3: you're gonna have the eight o'clock you have three o'clock now,

1241
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:12,960
Speaker 3: and you'll have.

1242
01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:18,560
Speaker 2: The eight o'clock Black Black Friday game. You like that. Look,

1243
01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:23,880
Speaker 2: I'm gonna watch the football. I'm gonna watch it, but

1244
01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:33,680
Speaker 2: it's a lot, it's a lot lot. Okay, I'm gonna

1245
01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 2: watch it all right now.

1246
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:39,520
Speaker 3: They're also and then my man Mike Garratfolo from the

1247
01:07:39,600 --> 01:07:43,960
Speaker 3: NFL Network said to me yesterday that they are working

1248
01:07:44,080 --> 01:07:49,440
Speaker 3: on a permanent Christmas Eve slate.

1249
01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:59,439
Speaker 2: That feels again like, see, this thing is a personal charge.

1250
01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:02,439
Speaker 2: I don't like. We don't you know, we're not Christmas people.

1251
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 2: We're Jewish, like I don't. I don't like.

1252
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:05,600
Speaker 4: So like that to me is not a night of

1253
01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:07,440
Speaker 4: family like I would just one night for me, so

1254
01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:10,640
Speaker 4: like sign up for more football, right, you know? But

1255
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:12,680
Speaker 4: but you know, like so it just depends on your

1256
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:14,960
Speaker 4: personal feeling about how you celebrate the holidays, right, so

1257
01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:17,799
Speaker 4: like that's not a thing. Like typically where my family

1258
01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 4: is gone, they go skiing over over Christmas and I'm

1259
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:23,200
Speaker 4: not even with them. So I'm home by myself, me

1260
01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:25,559
Speaker 4: and the dog and my grill and and my and

1261

Speaker 2: You know, you just do it all at home.

1274
01:09:01,520 --> 01:09:01,640
Speaker 4: Man.

1275
01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:07,040
Speaker 2: You don't have order food anymore, do you? Uh? You

01:09:08,479 --> 01:09:15,400
Speaker 2: the hot oil? What do you mean oil? Hot chili oil? Uh?

1278
01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:18,240
Speaker 2: You just because it's not just the chili, the chili

1279
01:09:18,280 --> 01:09:19,280
Speaker 2: pepper and oil.

1280
01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:21,920
Speaker 4: You just put the you just put if you want

1281
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:23,920
Speaker 4: to make chili oil or you just or.

1282
01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:28,200
Speaker 2: You want the Asian chili oil is different. I don't. Yeah,

1283
01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:30,479
Speaker 2: I buy that. It's got a different taste to it.

1284
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,519
Speaker 2: I just buy that. Yeah, we have to use you

1285
01:09:33,560 --> 01:09:35,360
Speaker 2: have to use the right. You use the right. The

1286
01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:37,960
Speaker 2: right chili is obviously. I used to like I could

1287
01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:38,439
Speaker 2: get the chill.

1288
01:09:38,520 --> 01:09:40,559
Speaker 3: I'm a pepper man, So I do the chili and

1289
01:09:40,600 --> 01:09:42,400
Speaker 3: I well, you just put it in and I do

1290
01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:42,920
Speaker 3: the oil.

1291
01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:45,080
Speaker 2: But there's there's a different tages to it.

1292
01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:46,800
Speaker 4: Well, you just I mean the way you do it

1293
01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:49,000
Speaker 4: is you just you just pour hot oil over the

1294
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:52,600
Speaker 4: spices and then you just save you just save it.

1295
01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:58,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, but that's your schedule. You're now Christmas Eves

1296
01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:01,879
Speaker 3: sacred for me. He probably wouldn't wanted to watch football

1297
01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:05,040
Speaker 3: that day. I I do. I host about you know,

1298
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:08,840
Speaker 3: like twenty twenty five people. Depends from year to year.

1299
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:12,120
Speaker 3: I cook a big uh uh. They call it the

1300
01:10:12,160 --> 01:10:15,559
Speaker 3: Seven Fishes, So I do a big seven Fishes party.

1301
01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:20,160
Speaker 3: But there's been times when Christmas Eve's been uh, you know,

1302
01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:23,120
Speaker 3: on a on a weekend. Like a buddy of mine

1303
01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:26,680
Speaker 3: is a big Steelers fan and he comes over every

1304
01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:30,880
Speaker 3: year and they played on it like it was like

1305
01:10:30,920 --> 01:10:35,240
Speaker 3: that Christmas Eve night and I was done cooking around nine.

1306
01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:37,640
Speaker 2: They they my wife put up the desserts.

1307
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 3: CEO's around so, you know, me and him his son,

1308
01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:45,120
Speaker 3: like my father, we wound up watching. We were just

1309
01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:47,160
Speaker 3: kind of locked into the second half of the game,

1310
01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:49,519
Speaker 3: but that was it, and then and then and then.

1311
01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:53,760
Speaker 3: But you're right in that it's it's just an I

1312
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:58,519
Speaker 3: always like I make again, there's a difference between your

1313
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:01,719
Speaker 3: team playing and it being on in the background. Correct,

1314
01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:05,760
Speaker 3: when sports is on, it's comforting for me.

1315
01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:09,479
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a happy place where I can't lie. I

1316
01:11:09,520 --> 01:11:10,200
Speaker 2: agree with that.

1317
01:11:10,439 --> 01:11:13,160
Speaker 4: But again, I feel like I just feel like if

1318
01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:15,360
Speaker 4: there's an NFL game on, because it's my job, Like

1319
01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:18,320
Speaker 4: I just I gotta sort of have it on, right.

1320
01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:20,920
Speaker 4: So there's sometimes some nights where I'm okay with it

1321
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:25,559
Speaker 4: not being on. I'm like, okay, like taking a break

1322
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:28,160
Speaker 4: from like having to watch it. And again, I you know,

1323
01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:32,080
Speaker 4: I I don't really like I like other sports too.

1324
01:11:32,120 --> 01:11:33,760
Speaker 4: I don't really like I don't miss it right now

1325
01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:35,800
Speaker 4: because there's so much basketball on, you know, I'll miss

1326
01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:36,360
Speaker 4: it a little bit.

1327
01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:37,760
Speaker 2: Like I just watch so.

1328
01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:41,600
Speaker 4: Much football between you know, the college football in the

1329
01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 4: NFL that I'm one of those people that like, doesn't

1330
01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 4: it just like I miss I do. I wish it was,

1331
01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:47,720
Speaker 4: but like I'm okay with if it's not on for

1332
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:51,320
Speaker 4: a night. I think people just they just need to

1333
01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:53,519
Speaker 4: have it on all the time. I'm not that type

1334
01:11:53,560 --> 01:11:55,559
Speaker 4: of person. Again, I watch all the football. It's not

1335
01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:55,920
Speaker 4: like I don't.

1336
01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 2: I don't. I know you do, but I'm but.

1337
01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:01,320
Speaker 4: I'm like, but I'm okay to like have a night

1338
01:12:01,479 --> 01:12:04,200
Speaker 4: like you know, nine four Thanksgiving where it's not on

1339
01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:07,080
Speaker 4: you know, the NFL. I don't subscribe to the theory

1340
01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:08,840
Speaker 4: that like they're gonna get too fat and that it

1341
01:12:08,880 --> 01:12:11,599
Speaker 4: gets slaughtered right like the you know, because they choose

1342
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:14,960
Speaker 4: every night to be on television. Obviously there's a lot

1343
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:18,040
Speaker 4: of money involved in that. And with you know, these options,

1344
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:20,920
Speaker 4: you're allowing I think, you know, more ways to get

1345
01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:23,120
Speaker 4: streaming services involved. You might have to have like eight

1346
01:12:23,160 --> 01:12:25,200
Speaker 4: different ways to watch the game next season, who knows,

1347
01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:27,280
Speaker 4: But these are just ways to get more money from

1348
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:31,040
Speaker 4: Netflix and Amazon and and maybe other you know companies

1349
01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:33,360
Speaker 4: to continue you know, the collar cap going up. But

1350
01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 4: I get why they're doing it. I just think it's

1351
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:37,360
Speaker 4: okay to not have every night of the week football on.

1352
01:12:38,720 --> 01:12:41,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like it. I don't think there's anything wrong

1353
01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:42,280
Speaker 2: with it. What do you make?

1354
01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:44,840
Speaker 4: So I'm curious about this, uh this night before this

1355
01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:47,080
Speaker 4: Christmas Eve meal, it's you said, it's just it's just.

1356
01:12:47,040 --> 01:12:53,160
Speaker 2: Fish, right, yeah? Yeah, So what makes exact? Makes seven?

1357
01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:59,200
Speaker 2: Seven different types of fish? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, it varies. Uh.

1358
01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:02,559
Speaker 3: There was an old school way like my grandmother, my

1359
01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:05,920
Speaker 3: mother and like the family that they used to do the.

1360
01:13:05,920 --> 01:13:08,720
Speaker 2: Old school stuff calamari.

1361
01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:13,080
Speaker 3: I do some of them, but I modernized it like

1362
01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:15,960
Speaker 3: my and there's always one pasta dish.

1363
01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:20,240
Speaker 2: So my pasta dish is crabs and spaghetti. Oh it

1364
01:13:20,240 --> 01:13:23,759
Speaker 2: could be it could be shellfish too. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay,

1365
01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:28,160
Speaker 2: yeah yeah. We do a shrimp tray because that's you know,

01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:33,760
Speaker 2: they have to accounts as one. I do smelts. I

1367
01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:42,679
Speaker 2: do a lobster bisk. I do what smelts. Smelts are

1368
01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:43,639
Speaker 2: these little fish?

1369
01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:51,280
Speaker 9: Okay, they're like they're bigger than that. Oh yeah, yeah,

1377
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 2: It sounds like more than seven fishes. Yeah, a lot

1378
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:24,960
Speaker 2: of times we'll go we keep it to seven, but

1379
01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:28,439
Speaker 2: like you know, uh, the worst is like two days later,

1380
01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:31,880
Speaker 2: the still smells like fish. Yeah that's a problem. Yeah,

1381
01:14:32,320 --> 01:14:35,439
Speaker 2: but it's but people love it, like everybody loves It's

1382
01:14:35,439 --> 01:14:38,760
Speaker 2: a big party and it's whatever. It's an Italian thing.

1383
01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:43,280
Speaker 2: It's like good luck for whenever we have crab, we

1384
01:14:43,439 --> 01:14:45,679
Speaker 2: always heat it up. If you want a little heat

1385
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:48,040
Speaker 2: on it on the grill outside, so don't stick the

1386
01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:52,080
Speaker 2: house up. Oh okay, yeah, well I put it in

1387
01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:55,120
Speaker 2: tomato sauce. Yeah, if you cook it obviously on the stove.

1388
01:14:55,160 --> 01:14:55,639
Speaker 2: It's different.

1389
01:14:55,640 --> 01:14:57,200
Speaker 4: But like we just want to have like we order

1390
01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:59,160
Speaker 4: crab boks every now and then, and that they're sort

1391
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 4: of frozen. You have to warm up a little bit,

1392
01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:04,120
Speaker 4: don't it tastes good A little bit, a little look,

1393
01:15:04,160 --> 01:15:04,679
Speaker 4: a little.

1394
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:06,599
Speaker 2: Steam you steam outside.

1395
01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:09,680
Speaker 4: I basically instead of steaming the pot, just do it

1396
01:15:09,680 --> 01:15:12,679
Speaker 4: in the grill. Essentially, I have them like offset, not

1397
01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:15,280
Speaker 4: under the flame, just so they can defrost and like

1398
01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:16,519
Speaker 4: get a little bit of heat on them because it

1399
01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:18,600
Speaker 4: gets a little bit better warm.

1400
01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:20,559
Speaker 2: And I'll do that on the grill. Son stick up

1401
01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:23,479
Speaker 2: the house. But it's one of the great I love crab.

1402

1403
01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:27,200

01:15:35,360 --> 01:15:37,720

Speaker 2: it's he's last.

1456
01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:27,519
Speaker 4: So really, all you need for three chicken wings, we

1457
01:18:27,600 --> 01:18:34,040
Speaker 4: kind of has appetizer, right, that's chicken wings obviously unbreaded fried,

1458
01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:39,800
Speaker 4: unbreaded fried. I I agree with you. You can't do the

1459
01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:43,960
Speaker 4: you can't the breaded wing. I don't like it, dude.

1460
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:46,000
Speaker 4: I was in Buffalo a couple of years back for

1461
01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:49,280
Speaker 4: above Bill's cheese pilafkin. We ate at bar Bill best

1462
01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:51,080
Speaker 4: ones ever had in my life, Buddy, I would eat,

1463
01:18:51,120 --> 01:18:51,639
Speaker 4: I'd eat.

1464
01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:55,560
Speaker 2: Oh my god, wait, what makes him so good? Buffalo?

1465
01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:59,559
Speaker 4: Well, so they're unbreaded and fried, and the sauce is incredible,

1466
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:03,880
Speaker 4: Like it's the perfect blend of a little bit of

1467
01:19:03,880 --> 01:19:06,559
Speaker 4: of heat but like not overwhelming. You like so for

1468
01:19:06,640 --> 01:19:08,720
Speaker 4: me for the way I like. So the older I get,

1469
01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:10,640
Speaker 4: the more kind of spice I like. In general, I

1470
01:19:10,640 --> 01:19:12,880
Speaker 4: think it's maybe just as you get more you know,

1471
01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:14,760
Speaker 4: your palate, it's a little bit better you enjoy. Like

1472
01:19:14,840 --> 01:19:17,200
Speaker 4: as a kid, I never want any spice, but I

1473
01:19:17,240 --> 01:19:20,960
Speaker 4: do like it now. But I don't like spice just

1474
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:24,439
Speaker 4: to overwhelm your palette. I like it as a flavor,

1475
01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:27,160
Speaker 4: right like you you want. I'll give you example, Like

1476
01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:29,720
Speaker 4: I don't like when you go to sushi restaurants and

1477
01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:32,240
Speaker 4: they just give you like the siracha mayonnaise on everything,

1478
01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:34,840
Speaker 4: Like you're like, what why is it? Why do you

1479
01:19:34,840 --> 01:19:37,679
Speaker 4: put siracha on this? It doesn't all you taste is serracchi.

1480
01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:39,439
Speaker 4: You don't taste anything with the sushi. You just you

1481
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:42,479
Speaker 4: always the sierracha. That to me is not what I like.

1482
01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:45,320
Speaker 4: And so these wings and you know, there's some places

1483
01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:47,320
Speaker 4: you go and you get like, you know, buffalo wings and.

1484
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,000
Speaker 2: Just the sauce. It's just like loud and sauce, and

1485
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:51,760
Speaker 2: all you taste is a sauce, you know what I mean?

1486
01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:56,880
Speaker 4: These wings, dude, the flavor is just so good, Like

1487
01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:00,960
Speaker 4: you get the heat of the it doesn't overwhelm you

1488
01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:03,680
Speaker 4: and you get the the christ if they did fry

1489
01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:05,559
Speaker 4: it perfectly, it's it's.

1490
01:20:05,439 --> 01:20:11,000
Speaker 3: Gotta be nothing worse than an underdone wing. So wings

1491
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:13,120
Speaker 3: for me, and then you just have to choose a carb. Right,

1492
01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:15,920
Speaker 3: So like do you want like I love French fries,

1493
01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:20,640
Speaker 3: like I would get French fries. I like nachos, but

1494
01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:22,720
Speaker 3: they have to be done the right way. And that's

1495
01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:25,559
Speaker 3: the problem. You have to you have to when if.

1496
01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:28,240
Speaker 4: You make nachos, they have to be the cheese has

1497
01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:30,720
Speaker 4: to be layered in every layer. So you took you

1498
01:20:30,720 --> 01:20:33,439
Speaker 4: put it, you know, a bed of chips cheese, right,

1499
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:37,520
Speaker 4: a betta chips cheese, A betta chips cheese.

1500
01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:40,559
Speaker 2: A party. The problem is is that a lot of

1501
01:20:40,960 --> 01:20:42,800
Speaker 2: that's an impressive mabe.

1502
01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:45,599
Speaker 4: People just put like cheese on top of the whole thing,

1503
01:20:46,439 --> 01:20:50,400
Speaker 4: and then you don't get so like done correctly. I

1504
01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:53,599
Speaker 4: would take nachos as an advertiser, but they're not done

1505
01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:56,000
Speaker 4: correctly a lot of the times. So all right, so

1506
01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,360
Speaker 4: what do you three? You got wings? I would do

1507
01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:03,800
Speaker 4: some sort of French fry and then oh man, I'd

1508
01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 4: be pretty set there. I could do like a like

1509
01:21:07,439 --> 01:21:10,280
Speaker 4: a I see, I like salty so like if you

Speaker 2: I love this time of the year, Jeff. I mean it's fantastic.

1534
01:22:57,600 --> 01:22:57,760
Speaker 2: You know.

1535
01:22:57,760 --> 01:22:59,479
Speaker 4: What's funny is like when you start talking about this,

1536
01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:02,920
Speaker 4: people say to you, like, oh, thanks for watching college basketball.

1537
01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:04,639
Speaker 2: And I've been watching all year. I just don't tweet

1538
01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:05,200
Speaker 2: about all the time.

1539
01:23:05,200 --> 01:23:06,720
Speaker 4: I would I tweet about the college basketball in the

1540
01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:07,679
Speaker 4: middle of football season.

1541
01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:09,120
Speaker 2: No one cares I have to say about that.

1542
01:23:09,120 --> 01:23:11,479
Speaker 4: I've been watching all year and and I mean, look,

1543
01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:14,760
Speaker 4: I say this a lot. It wasn't true with some

1544
01:23:14,760 --> 01:23:17,000
Speaker 4: of the games yesterday, right Like I think the Arizona

1545
01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:19,599
Speaker 4: Iowa State game definitely didn't did wasn't this. I don't

1546
01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:22,040
Speaker 4: think Oklahoma and Arkansas was like this? But do a

1547
01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:25,280
Speaker 4: lot of these games, man, we're just watching to see

1548
01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:28,800
Speaker 4: which team can bust and which team can just manage

1549
01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:29,960
Speaker 4: to hold on them as well. A lot of these

1550
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:32,240
Speaker 4: games just turn out to be right because it's it's

1551
01:23:32,320 --> 01:23:34,080
Speaker 4: you know, we got you know, the eighteen twenty two

1552
01:23:34,120 --> 01:23:36,160
Speaker 4: year olds playing this game and a lot of pressure.

1553
01:23:36,160 --> 01:23:38,120
Speaker 4: There's a lot of pressure on some of these top

1554
01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:41,000
Speaker 4: seeds and from the smaller conferences and they just wilt. Man,

1555
01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:43,360
Speaker 4: they will. Then some teams rise up. I mean, Saint

1556
01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:46,479
Speaker 4: Louis has looked bad in multiple halves of games this year,

1557
01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:48,200
Speaker 4: and they came all the way back yesterday. I mean,

1558
01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,080
Speaker 4: so there's a lot of good happening during these games,

1559
01:23:51,080 --> 01:23:53,639
Speaker 4: and the better teams are still sort of advancing and surviving.

1560
01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:55,280
Speaker 4: So it'd be a lot of fun to watch today.

1561
01:23:56,360 --> 01:24:02,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, And you know, ultimately, ultimately it's about this tournament

1562
01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:03,800
Speaker 2: and who can win it.

1563
01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:06,639
Speaker 3: And I do think that you guys have a good

1564
01:24:06,760 --> 01:24:09,080
Speaker 3: half dozen teams that can win it. I know j

1565
01:24:09,280 --> 01:24:12,439
Speaker 3: Billis said there were two. It's I think you said

1566
01:24:12,439 --> 01:24:17,439
Speaker 3: Michigan Arizona. But you know, I think there's about a

1567
01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:18,760
Speaker 3: half dozen teams that can win it.

1568
01:24:20,200 --> 01:24:24,320
Speaker 4: So Michigan to me, can obviously win it. Arizona can

1569
01:24:24,360 --> 01:24:27,840
Speaker 4: win it, even although I am concerned with their ability

1570
01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:30,559
Speaker 4: to just they can't. They can't make threes, right, And

1571
01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:33,400
Speaker 4: so you know, let's say you're just you run up

1572
01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:36,120
Speaker 4: against a good defense. I mean, Houston will be Houston's

1573
01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:38,080
Speaker 4: defense is not what it has been in the past,

1574
01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:39,640
Speaker 4: but it'll be curious to see them today, like what

1575
01:24:39,680 --> 01:24:41,360
Speaker 4: if they're just not making their twos, like, are you

1576
01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:42,960
Speaker 4: going to get you know, be able to get some

1577
01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:47,599
Speaker 4: more you know some some you know essentially some threes? Right,

1578
01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:49,080
Speaker 4: like I can you can you win if you can't

1579
01:24:49,080 --> 01:24:51,719
Speaker 4: make threes? It's curious about that. Michigan obviously looks looks

1580
01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:53,559
Speaker 4: good even though you know they're not. I don't think

1581
01:24:53,560 --> 01:24:55,040
Speaker 4: as dominant as they have been.

1582
01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:56,880
Speaker 2: Uh and then Duke, I mean, I don't know why.

1583
01:24:56,920 --> 01:24:58,759
Speaker 4: I guess they're hurt, right, that's the reason why Duke's

1584
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:00,680
Speaker 4: not gonna win or can't win. I think they could

1585
01:25:00,720 --> 01:25:06,200
Speaker 4: certainly win the championship. Look I mentioned earlier, if you

1586
01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:10,760
Speaker 4: have a guy in a cuff that scores thirty at night, Arkansas, concernaly,

1587
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:12,880
Speaker 4: there'd be a long shot. But that they're they're in

1588
01:25:12,960 --> 01:25:18,080
Speaker 4: the discussion. I think right to win. You know, can

1589
01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:20,680
Speaker 4: Florida do it again? Absolutely? The way they've been playing, I.

1590
01:25:21,960 --> 01:25:23,080
Speaker 2: Think Florida's legit.

1591
01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:30,920
Speaker 3: Like honestly, Michigan Florida I think are legitimate. I think Arizona,

1592
01:25:31,160 --> 01:25:36,240
Speaker 3: I think Houston, I think Yukon. I think obviously Duke,

1593
01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:39,880
Speaker 3: I know that they they have injuries, but you know,

1594
01:25:40,400 --> 01:25:40,840
Speaker 3: who'd you go.

1595
01:25:43,400 --> 01:25:46,160
Speaker 2: On Yukon. I like Yukon.

1596
01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:49,080
Speaker 4: Houston and me, I, I you know, they're they're calling

1597
01:25:49,120 --> 01:25:51,519
Speaker 4: card for so many years was you know, was that

1598
01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:53,880
Speaker 4: defense is not as good anymore. I think they still

1599
01:25:53,880 --> 01:25:57,160
Speaker 4: struggle offensively too much for me at times. I it's

1600
01:25:57,160 --> 01:25:59,800
Speaker 4: hard to take teams in my opinion, that just have

1601
01:26:00,720 --> 01:26:06,320
Speaker 4: these moments offensively where they just can't score. And the

1602
01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:09,240
Speaker 4: teams we've mentioned so far, Mischigan does have this problem

1603
01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:11,719
Speaker 4: every now and then. But you look at a team

1604
01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:15,640
Speaker 4: like Florida, a team like Duke and Duke again, they

1605
01:26:15,640 --> 01:26:17,759
Speaker 4: had that first Carolina game where they just didn't score

1606
01:26:17,840 --> 01:26:19,519
Speaker 4: for you know this, they went nine minutes and scored

1607
01:26:19,600 --> 01:26:21,840
Speaker 4: ten points whatever it was. So everyone sort of has

1608
01:26:21,880 --> 01:26:24,000
Speaker 4: a moment every now and then, but the teams we've

1609
01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:26,880
Speaker 4: mentioned score just kind of just don't ever have those

1610
01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:30,320
Speaker 4: big goals, right, And and that to me is super important.

1611
01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:32,320
Speaker 4: You're trying to pick a winner, right because these games

1612
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:34,479
Speaker 4: it's not a best of seven, right, And so it

1613
01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:36,639
Speaker 4: makes this very unique competition where you have an entire

1614
01:26:36,680 --> 01:26:38,720
Speaker 4: season of thirty plus games and it comes down to

1615
01:26:38,720 --> 01:26:42,080
Speaker 4: playing individual games in a playoff format, right. And so

1616
01:26:42,720 --> 01:26:44,599
Speaker 4: you to me, you have the different ways to win

1617
01:26:45,800 --> 01:26:47,960
Speaker 4: in these type of games, and you know, you know,

1618
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:50,680
Speaker 4: can you avoid that really cold streak that they kind

1619
01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:53,080
Speaker 4: of can cost it. We saw that, you know last

1620
01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:54,880
Speaker 4: year with Duke Right, they've had a cold streak out

1621
01:26:54,920 --> 01:26:56,639
Speaker 4: of nowhere and that's the end of their season.

1622
01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:03,840
Speaker 3: I mean, listen, I mean, I think you're right that

1623
01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:06,960
Speaker 3: the lolls make it harder. But actually, man, you get

1624
01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:10,880
Speaker 3: to this tournament, it's guard play man, it's all guard.

1625
01:27:10,560 --> 01:27:13,639
Speaker 2: Plus and veteran. Veteran teams tend to do a lot better.

1626
01:27:13,720 --> 01:27:16,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I mean, I listen, I just I

1627
01:27:16,360 --> 01:27:18,800
Speaker 3: think it's my only point in saying I mean, yeah,

1628
01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:21,880
Speaker 3: there's teams that I like better, and obviously like I

1629
01:27:21,960 --> 01:27:24,840
Speaker 3: like Iowa State, right, I know they lost, but I still,

1630
01:27:24,880 --> 01:27:27,320
Speaker 3: like I was staying, I know Illinois lost, but I

1631
01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:31,080
Speaker 3: like Illinois. I mean, once you get it, who's what's

1632
01:27:31,120 --> 01:27:36,000
Speaker 3: the path? What road do you have? And then let's

1633
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,680
Speaker 3: go right, Like, let's see, like there's I think you've

1634
01:27:38,680 --> 01:27:41,439
Speaker 3: got about a half dozen teams, you know, six to

1635
01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:42,840
Speaker 3: eight teams.

1636
01:27:43,400 --> 01:27:45,080
Speaker 2: That I have a shot at this thing. I think

1637
01:27:45,120 --> 01:27:45,719
Speaker 2: it's that good.

1638
01:27:47,080 --> 01:27:51,000
Speaker 4: I think you're probably on the right track there. It

1639
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:52,840
Speaker 4: wouldn't surprise you if any of the teams you mentioned

1640
01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:56,240
Speaker 4: all one I just I'm not betting. I just I

1641
01:27:56,240 --> 01:27:58,040
Speaker 4: don't think those I won't put money on those teams

1642
01:27:58,080 --> 01:28:00,559
Speaker 4: to win. This feels like a tournament that you know,

1643
01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:04,920
Speaker 4: the top seeds. I'll tell you what's interesting. There were

1644
01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:09,559
Speaker 4: a lot of upsets in the mid major conferences, and

1645
01:28:09,680 --> 01:28:11,840
Speaker 4: a lot of the one seeds that we're gonna be

1646
01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:13,639
Speaker 4: in the tournament are not gonna be in the tournament now.

1647
01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:16,479
Speaker 4: And I think we're gonna have a very very chalky

1648
01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:19,840
Speaker 4: first two rounds. I'm counting around thirty round a third

1649
01:28:19,920 --> 01:28:22,439
Speaker 4: of sixty four and round of thirty two because a

1650
01:28:22,439 --> 01:28:26,400
Speaker 4: lot of these, you know, twelve thirteen seeds, fourteen seeds

1651
01:28:26,400 --> 01:28:29,040
Speaker 4: that had good seasons are not in the tournament anymore.

1652
01:28:29,080 --> 01:28:31,880
Speaker 4: They're being replaced by a sixth seed from a group

1653
01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:35,639
Speaker 4: of five, a mid major in a group of five,

1654
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:40,120
Speaker 4: And I mean, Miami, Oh, I did go it? Make No,

1655
01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:44,559
Speaker 4: they're in. Uh, they're just gonna lose to if they're

1656
01:28:44,560 --> 01:28:45,480
Speaker 4: gonna play.

1657
01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:48,160
Speaker 2: I'm with you. I do think you're right that, but

1658
01:28:48,200 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 2: they should will be a lot of there won't be

1659
01:28:50,560 --> 01:28:53,160
Speaker 2: a lot of upsets. But I think it's gonna be

1660
01:28:53,200 --> 01:28:56,719
Speaker 2: a good tournament. So I mean, do you need the upsets.

1661
01:28:56,800 --> 01:28:58,760
Speaker 4: I don't no, no, no, but I'm saying like, I

1662
01:28:58,840 --> 01:29:01,160
Speaker 4: just think it's gonna be there. If you're putting on

1663
01:29:01,200 --> 01:29:04,840
Speaker 4: your bracket. It's a you know, the teams that would

1664
01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:08,720
Speaker 4: have had a chance to beat a four seed are

1665
01:29:08,720 --> 01:29:11,599
Speaker 4: not the tournament this year because they lost their conference tournament.

1666
01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:16,439
Speaker 4: That's my point. So yeah, just be on the lookout

1667
01:29:16,439 --> 01:29:17,920
Speaker 4: for that when you when you make your bracket. I

1668
01:29:17,920 --> 01:29:21,560
Speaker 4: think it's like, I think all the top four seeds,

1669
01:29:21,960 --> 01:29:24,479
Speaker 4: for the top sixteen teams are going to be pretty

1670
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:26,599
Speaker 4: heavily favored to win a lot of those games you're

1671
01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:28,840
Speaker 4: not going to get, you know, those thirteen seeds that

1672
01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:31,240
Speaker 4: I think are as attractive in previous years.

1673
01:29:31,520 --> 01:29:33,519
Speaker 2: So that's, you know, that's something to watch. I agree.

1674
01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:36,760
Speaker 2: I agree with that. You're right the watch out there,

1675
01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:38,320
Speaker 2: minam Ohio.

1676
01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:40,160
Speaker 4: It would be very funny if they put them against

1677
01:29:40,160 --> 01:29:46,280
Speaker 4: all Burnon like the first four game. Look, I would

1678
01:29:46,360 --> 01:29:50,240
Speaker 4: much rather see a team like that, Minao Ohio.

1679
01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:53,439
Speaker 2: Thirty one and one. Yeah, dude, their numbers aren't great.

1680
01:29:53,439 --> 01:29:54,639
Speaker 2: Those friends is not great.

1681
01:29:55,080 --> 01:29:58,040
Speaker 4: They've had some three overtime wins, they've had seven games

1682
01:29:58,120 --> 01:30:00,000
Speaker 4: with one by five points or least, like you know, whatever,

1683
01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:02,000
Speaker 4: the numbers aren't great, but they won the games, and

1684
01:30:02,120 --> 01:30:03,559
Speaker 4: they won the games in the end, they won the

1685
01:30:03,600 --> 01:30:06,000
Speaker 4: games they had to win in the end. I'd rather

1686
01:30:06,080 --> 01:30:09,400
Speaker 4: see them have a chance, that Alburn have a chance.

1687
01:30:11,600 --> 01:30:15,200
Speaker 4: You see a seven and sixteen seventeen sixteen Auburn team

1688
01:30:15,800 --> 01:30:19,800
Speaker 4: in Miyam, Ohio. If you have a sixty fourteen tournament,

1689
01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:25,080
Speaker 4: had sixty eight teams, now sixty eighteen tournament, give me

1690
01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:29,720
Speaker 4: the Mina of Ohio. Give me the one extra mid

1691
01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:33,759
Speaker 4: major team over the one or two ACC teams SEC

1692
01:30:33,800 --> 01:30:35,439
Speaker 4: teams that to me.

1693
01:30:35,439 --> 01:30:37,880
Speaker 2: Just aren't very good. Yeah, the numbers are going to

1694
01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:38,720
Speaker 2: be better. I get it.

1695
01:30:38,760 --> 01:30:40,320
Speaker 4: I get the numbers being better. They play in a

1696
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:44,240
Speaker 4: better conference, it's true. But I'd rather see those teams

1697
01:30:44,320 --> 01:30:46,879
Speaker 4: get in and have a chance to play in this tournament,

1698
01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:50,080
Speaker 4: to maybe have an upset over a team with Auburn

1699
01:30:50,080 --> 01:30:51,920
Speaker 4: that has no chance to do anything in the tournament.

1700
01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:55,360
Speaker 4: In college football, it's different because you only have twelve teams. Right,

1701
01:30:55,439 --> 01:30:59,280
Speaker 4: A team like Notre Dame who gets left out, who's

1702
01:30:59,320 --> 01:31:02,800
Speaker 4: a legitimate right, but they have legity, has no one's

1703
01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:05,640
Speaker 4: being left out of this tournament that does that has

1704
01:31:05,640 --> 01:31:08,559
Speaker 4: a chance to win a Championship first college football right now.

1705
01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:11,000
Speaker 2: It is likely because the Irish were good enough to all.

1706
01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:14,240
Speaker 3: Birds not beaten any of the top eight schools that

1707
01:31:14,240 --> 01:31:15,479
Speaker 3: I just rapped off.

1708
01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:20,639
Speaker 2: So that's why I'm strongly four my oh, I would

1709
01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:25,320
Speaker 2: be in. I agree, I think you're I think you're

1710
01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:28,599
Speaker 2: spot on with it. I put That's always been my thing,

1711
01:31:28,600 --> 01:31:30,360
Speaker 2: and that's why for the West Coast.

1712
01:31:30,160 --> 01:31:33,719
Speaker 4: Conference teams, put in Gonzaga, you know, Santa Clara and

1713
01:31:33,720 --> 01:31:36,200
Speaker 4: and uh and Saint Mary's, like, put them all in.

1714
01:31:36,280 --> 01:31:41,280
Speaker 4: I'd rather have them in over over Indiana, you know, Stanford.

1715
01:31:41,280 --> 01:31:43,960
Speaker 4: I don't want to see it. You know, we did

1716
01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:46,120
Speaker 4: this last last week. We were looking at bubble teams

1717
01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:50,880
Speaker 4: and we noticed I had to look at like I

1718
01:31:50,920 --> 01:31:53,000
Speaker 4: thought they'd be in the top half of their conference,

1719
01:31:53,360 --> 01:31:55,360
Speaker 4: and like Virginia Tech was like twelve in the a CEC.

1720
01:31:56,400 --> 01:31:59,240
Speaker 2: They're not. No one wants to see that. Come on, no,

1721
01:31:59,520 --> 01:32:03,120
Speaker 2: you mean I have Oh, yep, yep, all right, let's

1722
01:32:03,120 --> 01:32:04,960
Speaker 2: do this. Let's take a kill, Let's take a CEO.

1723
01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:07,320
Speaker 3: But I want to come back with a nice long

1724
01:32:07,439 --> 01:32:11,840
Speaker 3: segment and dive into rapid fire NFL.

1725
01:32:12,320 --> 01:32:14,479

1728
01:32:20,280 --> 01:32:23,920
Speaker 3: to the draft. Let's take a look at each team

1729
01:32:24,280 --> 01:32:28,400
Speaker 3: and then I want you to size them up. All right, Okay,

01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:05,720
Speaker 2: I don't know how they They got, you know, remarkably.

1753
01:34:05,200 --> 01:34:11,200
Speaker 3: Better Dj Moore, Bradley Chubb. Eh, they gave up a

1754
01:34:11,240 --> 01:34:13,760
Speaker 3: two and a five for DJ Moore? What do you

1755
01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:15,320

01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:19,639
Speaker 2: Big U B minus?

1757
01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:25,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, Dolphins go get Malik Willis to be their quarterback.

1758
01:34:25,479 --> 01:34:28,559
Speaker 2: Do you like that? Okay, I'm glad we'll get to

1759
01:34:28,600 --> 01:34:33,000
Speaker 2: this all right. So, Uh.

1760
01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:36,760
Speaker 4: One thing that I I don't understand about NFL, well,

1761
01:34:36,760 --> 01:34:40,000
Speaker 4: I do understand NFL media. It's because you know, they

1762
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:41,800
Speaker 4: have friends in the industry. I don't care. I have

1763
01:34:41,960 --> 01:34:43,759
Speaker 4: enough friends. I don't need to make friends anymore. Everything

1764
01:34:43,840 --> 01:34:46,120
Speaker 4: is the best ever, right, Like this guy has Oh

1765
01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:50,120
Speaker 4: he's so talented, he's great signing blah blah blah. Okay,

1766
01:34:50,560 --> 01:34:55,400
Speaker 4: here's you about Malik Willis. Let's be honest. Okay, if

1767
01:34:55,439 --> 01:34:59,200
Speaker 4: he were good in Miami, he would be the outlier

1768
01:34:59,479 --> 01:35:02,599
Speaker 4: of all our wars of NFL success. Like, I'm gonna

1769
01:35:02,680 --> 01:35:05,320
Speaker 4: lay this out for you, guys. I just listen to this. Okay,

1770
01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:07,840
Speaker 4: he is in his fifth He's going in his fifth

1771
01:35:07,920 --> 01:35:12,400
Speaker 4: year on his third team. He has started six NFL

1772
01:35:12,439 --> 01:35:15,519
Speaker 4: games in his career. Okay, six NFL games in his career.

1773
01:35:17,080 --> 01:35:19,320
Speaker 4: He played for the Tennessee Titans, who of course weren't

1774
01:35:19,360 --> 01:35:21,200
Speaker 4: good when he was there, and the Green Bay Packers.

1775
01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:23,960
Speaker 4: All right, he started three with the Tennessee Titans as

1776
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:26,160
Speaker 4: a rookie and three with the Green Bay Packers over

1777
01:35:26,160 --> 01:35:28,800
Speaker 4: the last two years. And he's entered games at times

1778
01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:30,840
Speaker 4: right as a backup because Jordan Love has gone hurt.

1779
01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:36,320
Speaker 4: He's attempted one hundred and fifty five passes in four seasons. Okay,

1780
01:35:38,840 --> 01:35:40,479
Speaker 4: he's on his third team. As I mentioned, he's a

1781
01:35:40,479 --> 01:35:45,200
Speaker 4: third round draft pick. For him to be good would

1782
01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:49,080
Speaker 4: be stuff of legends think about. And I know people

1783
01:35:49,080 --> 01:35:52,519
Speaker 4: will say, well, how about Sam Darnold he got to

1784
01:35:52,560 --> 01:35:54,640
Speaker 4: his fourth team and was good, or Baker Mayfield in

1785
01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:58,599
Speaker 4: Tampa Bay. And my pushback is always Gino Smith right

1786
01:35:58,760 --> 01:36:02,120
Speaker 4: with the Seahawks. My pushback is always the same thing.

1787
01:36:02,920 --> 01:36:06,680
Speaker 4: Those guys were either first round picks high second round

1788
01:36:06,720 --> 01:36:10,200
Speaker 4: pick in Gino Smith, and had started before they were

1789
01:36:10,439 --> 01:36:15,760
Speaker 4: They played as a starter for multiple years before not

1790
01:36:15,880 --> 01:36:18,639
Speaker 4: falling out of grace and then becoming a starter again

1791
01:36:18,720 --> 01:36:22,960
Speaker 4: somewhere else. Malik Willis has never started. He's never been

1792
01:36:23,040 --> 01:36:26,240
Speaker 4: starting quarterbacks. He's gonna go from attempting one hundred and

1793
01:36:26,280 --> 01:36:27,760
Speaker 4: fifty five pass I'm looking at it right now.

1794
01:36:28,160 --> 01:36:28,519
Speaker 2: Okay.

1795
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:32,200
Speaker 4: Jordan Love last year his quarterbacks fifteen starts, four hundred

1796
01:36:32,240 --> 01:36:34,880
Speaker 4: and thirty nine passes, So he's gonna he's gonna three

1797
01:36:34,960 --> 01:36:37,920
Speaker 4: and a half times passed the ball this season for

1798
01:36:37,960 --> 01:36:45,320
Speaker 4: the Miami Dolphins. Know the NFL is littered with first

1799
01:36:45,360 --> 01:36:49,479
Speaker 4: round picks as franchise guys, and then you know, Jalen

1800
01:36:49,520 --> 01:36:52,200
Speaker 4: Hurts right, like second round pick, middle of the second round,

1801
01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:56,880
Speaker 4: Tyler Schuck middle of the upper second round, Dak Prescott,

1802
01:36:56,960 --> 01:37:00,680
Speaker 4: fourth round party, seventh round. So it's most first round

1803
01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:03,519
Speaker 4: picks right or franchise guys. A couple guys sprinkled in there,

1804
01:37:03,960 --> 01:37:06,120
Speaker 4: but the guys that are sprinkled in there. Dak Prescott

1805
01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:08,879
Speaker 4: started as a rookie. Rock Party started as a rookie.

1806
01:37:09,080 --> 01:37:10,720
Speaker 4: Jale Hurts sat for a little bit, but they got

1807
01:37:10,800 --> 01:37:13,719
Speaker 4: rid of Carson Wentz four, Jalen Hurts right, Tyler Schuck

1808
01:37:13,760 --> 01:37:15,280
Speaker 4: sat a couple games, and like, ah, he's got to

1809
01:37:15,320 --> 01:37:18,200
Speaker 4: start now, Malik Willis did none of those things, right,

1810
01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:21,960
Speaker 4: none of those things. So to put your faith in

1811
01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:27,200
Speaker 4: a guy that through year five has no starts six starts,

1812
01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:30,200
Speaker 4: that's it. I was even looking around in fregency thinking

1813
01:37:30,200 --> 01:37:33,400
Speaker 4: to myself, like, how many other guys were signed by

1814
01:37:33,439 --> 01:37:37,559
Speaker 4: teams that were essentially backups to be starters?

1815
01:37:37,640 --> 01:37:39,559
Speaker 2: Right, there's like one.

1816
01:37:39,479 --> 01:37:43,200
Speaker 4: Like the chief sign of d tackle who kind of

1817
01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:45,960
Speaker 4: started like fifteen games in his career, but he started

1818
01:37:46,000 --> 01:37:47,840
Speaker 4: like ten of them last season, Like he became a

1819
01:37:47,920 --> 01:37:50,639
Speaker 4: starter for the Patriots, like a good defense.

1820
01:37:51,160 --> 01:37:54,200
Speaker 2: This is rare, man. Even I think back to my career.

1821
01:37:54,280 --> 01:37:58,439
Speaker 4: Okay, I was I had when the Giants signed me,

1822
01:37:58,479 --> 01:38:04,160
Speaker 4: I'd started like twenty five ish games over six years,

1823
01:38:04,840 --> 01:38:06,760
Speaker 4: and that was all because of injury. I was a

1824
01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:10,680
Speaker 4: full time starter, got hurt, bounced around, were gained a

1825
01:38:10,720 --> 01:38:12,719
Speaker 4: starting role, and then got signed again.

1826
01:38:13,400 --> 01:38:14,760
Speaker 2: That's not Malik Willis at all.

1827
01:38:15,120 --> 01:38:17,920
Speaker 4: No, No, so, dude, he would be an outlier of

1828
01:38:18,120 --> 01:38:21,800
Speaker 4: NFL history to be good in Miami. And I don't know,

1829
01:38:21,920 --> 01:38:24,800
Speaker 4: we just can't say that always talented. Everyone's talented. It's

1830
01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:27,320
Speaker 4: why they're in the NFL. Everyone has talent. Oh, he's

1831
01:38:27,320 --> 01:38:29,559
Speaker 4: got a big arm, so does every quarterback. I mean,

1832
01:38:29,600 --> 01:38:31,160
Speaker 4: who doesn't have a big arm? You tell me someone

1833
01:38:31,200 --> 01:38:31,720
Speaker 4: who's like who?

1834
01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:34,680
Speaker 2: Really? Too? Okay, too was accurate.

1835
01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:37,720
Speaker 4: That that's a superpower, like who, Everyone has a big arm.

1836
01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:40,080
Speaker 4: There's an NFL. So I just I don't buy this

1837
01:38:40,200 --> 01:38:42,559
Speaker 4: idea that he's gonna be good in Miami. There's no

1838
01:38:42,640 --> 01:38:45,160
Speaker 4: NFL history that he'll be good in Miami. Zero whatsoever.

1839
01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:49,360
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to Patriots. Do you agree with me,

1840
01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:53,720
Speaker 2: by the way, I don't. Here's the thing I do

1841
01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:56,000
Speaker 2: agree in that I think you'd make a great point

1842
01:38:56,760 --> 01:39:02,320
Speaker 2: about games played, like you gotta play more games like

1843
01:39:02,439 --> 01:39:07,799
Speaker 2: you're You're spot on about Baker and you know having

1844
01:39:07,840 --> 01:39:11,640
Speaker 2: when you play that many games, Donald's like when you

1845
01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:16,000
Speaker 2: like Donald played, So when you play like you take lumps,

1846
01:39:16,040 --> 01:39:19,640
Speaker 2: you learn the whole thing. The other thing that that

1847
01:39:19,840 --> 01:39:23,760
Speaker 2: I'm pessimistic about, like because I like his skill sets, right,

1848
01:39:23,840 --> 01:39:26,600
Speaker 2: I do. He was also when he came in for

1849
01:39:26,680 --> 01:39:28,560
Speaker 2: those handful of games, he goes, look out good he

1850
01:39:28,600 --> 01:39:33,040
Speaker 2: played well. He's he's playing in the quarterback friendly offense, right,

1851
01:39:33,120 --> 01:39:38,000
Speaker 2: A really good coach that really understands how to get

1852
01:39:38,040 --> 01:39:42,280
Speaker 2: the most and best out of your quarterback. I'm kind

1853
01:39:42,280 --> 01:39:44,880
Speaker 2: of afraid that he goes down there. I I you know,

1854
01:39:45,160 --> 01:39:46,719
Speaker 2: I don't know what they're how they're going to develop.

1855
01:39:46,800 --> 01:39:51,439
Speaker 4: Just Also, there's also a difference between coming in as

1856
01:39:51,479 --> 01:39:54,120
Speaker 4: a backup and being the full time starter. We see

1857
01:39:54,160 --> 01:39:57,519
Speaker 4: this all the time over every position. Right, when you're

1858
01:39:57,560 --> 01:40:00,960
Speaker 4: asked to be the starter, it's a different life. A

1859
01:40:01,240 --> 01:40:04,960
Speaker 4: you have, you have more responsibility, right. Two, there's more

1860
01:40:05,000 --> 01:40:07,760
Speaker 4: film right like teams, As you get more film on

1861
01:40:07,800 --> 01:40:11,439
Speaker 4: you, you have to adjust. We've never seen how Malik Willis

1862
01:40:12,040 --> 01:40:15,679
Speaker 4: has to adjust to teams having four games of film

1863
01:40:15,720 --> 01:40:16,040
Speaker 4: on him.

1864
01:40:17,040 --> 01:40:20,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, never seen it before. Yeah, yeah, all great, doesn't

1865
01:40:20,720 --> 01:40:22,760
Speaker 2: even know how to do it. He's never done it before. Okay, enough,

1866
01:40:22,800 --> 01:40:24,760
Speaker 2: Milik Willis, go ahead, Sorry, all right.

1867
01:40:24,920 --> 01:40:33,720
Speaker 3: Patriots, their big move was Dobbs, spending eighty million on Dobbs.

1868
01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:36,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, they've only done anything. I'm kind of surprised that

1869
01:40:36,960 --> 01:40:39,080
Speaker 2: Jones they've sort of sat out this this.

1870
01:40:39,360 --> 01:40:41,200
Speaker 4: Pragency, haven't they. Which again, a lot of teams do.

1871
01:40:41,240 --> 01:40:43,920
Speaker 4: I'm not surprised. I think that that's a C signing, don't.

1872
01:40:43,920 --> 01:40:45,679
Speaker 4: I don't know if I love it.

1873
01:40:45,920 --> 01:40:47,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not. I'm not in love with that.

1874
01:40:47,920 --> 01:40:51,679
Speaker 3: Gino Siman goes back to the Jets at a place

1875
01:40:51,720 --> 01:40:54,760
Speaker 3: to franchise tag On Priests Hall.

1876
01:40:56,120 --> 01:41:03,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot you got, you got making Fitzpatrick. Okay,

1877
01:41:03,960 --> 01:41:08,439
Speaker 2: see so f F forty. Some only have a choice.

1878
01:41:08,479 --> 01:41:14,320
Speaker 3: But the Ravens, renigg On the trade uh side Tray

1879
01:41:14,400 --> 01:41:16,280
Speaker 3: he and side Tray Hendrickson.

1880
01:41:16,920 --> 01:41:17,880
Speaker 2: They lost like some.

1881
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:20,080
Speaker 4: Of their players. I mean there's deals at a I

1882
01:41:20,080 --> 01:41:21,320
Speaker 4: think it's a really good deal for them.

1883
01:41:21,439 --> 01:41:23,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just you know, we talked earlier about the

1884
01:41:23,720 --> 01:41:25,439
Speaker 2: Crosby thing. I just think they just they got out

1885
01:41:25,479 --> 01:41:27,200
Speaker 2: of that. They didn't want to They didn't want that,

1886
01:41:27,320 --> 01:41:28,920
Speaker 2: So I mean it is what it is. They allowed

1887
01:41:28,960 --> 01:41:31,880
Speaker 2: to do it when go to get a receiver, I

1888
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:35,320
Speaker 2: mean never I mean, geez.

1889
01:41:37,080 --> 01:41:41,800
Speaker 3: Ma fe three years sixty million in say in Cincinnati.

1890
01:41:43,640 --> 01:41:45,640
Speaker 2: So the thing I'm.

1891
01:41:45,280 --> 01:41:52,120
Speaker 4: Always curious about when guys leave good defenses is are

1892
01:41:52,120 --> 01:41:56,080
Speaker 4: they probably the defense they're in or they you know

1893
01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:59,679
Speaker 4: that that special player, right and you take him out

1894
01:41:59,680 --> 01:42:04,679
Speaker 4: of out of you know, Seattle now and is he

1895
01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:07,160
Speaker 4: going to be the same player in Cincinnatia. I think

1896
01:42:07,200 --> 01:42:10,000
Speaker 4: I think yes, probably Right linebacker tip typically, I think

1897
01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:12,640
Speaker 4: you can carry position to position. But the Bengals just

1898
01:42:12,640 --> 01:42:15,719
Speaker 4: have so much work to do at linebacker over a defense.

1899
01:42:15,720 --> 01:42:18,800
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a signing for them in my opinion. Yeah,

1900
01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:22,880
Speaker 2: and they get Jonathan Allen, they sign him two years,

1901
01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:27,599
Speaker 2: twenty six million. They signed Brian Cook three years forty million.

1902
01:42:29,040 --> 01:42:31,080
Speaker 2: So you got your big kind of safety in the

1903
01:42:31,120 --> 01:42:34,680
Speaker 2: middle of the field. So, I mean they try, and

1904
01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:38,479
Speaker 2: I give him credit for trying. I do give credit

1905
01:42:38,520 --> 01:42:40,040
Speaker 2: for trying. They get it. They get a credit for that.

1906
01:42:40,160 --> 01:42:50,880
Speaker 3: Yes, Cleveland Day trade for Titus Howard, they signed Jenkins.

1907
01:42:51,240 --> 01:42:54,240
Speaker 2: They're trying to fix their line. Yeah, they're a decent

1908
01:42:54,280 --> 01:42:58,120
Speaker 2: job trying to fix their line. I mean that was

1909
01:42:58,160 --> 01:43:01,800
Speaker 2: the main port, the main Their main focus is free

1910
01:43:01,800 --> 01:43:06,760
Speaker 2: agent per which I think was smart. Yes, I'm okay

1911
01:43:06,760 --> 01:43:12,759
Speaker 2: with what they've done so far. Steelers man Rico Dall

1912
01:43:13,680 --> 01:43:21,280
Speaker 2: Michael Pittman. I mean, I don't know, you feel like

1913
01:43:21,280 --> 01:43:23,919
Speaker 2: they're gonna run Aaron Rodgers. They got Brisker. I like Brisker.

1914
01:43:24,200 --> 01:43:29,320
Speaker 2: I don't which I don't love. Yeah, I think you

1915
01:43:29,400 --> 01:43:36,559
Speaker 2: need way more on offense, don't you. Yeah, way more? Uh.

1916
01:43:36,800 --> 01:43:40,200
Speaker 2: Texans they trade for David Montgomery.

1917
01:43:43,400 --> 01:43:51,559
Speaker 4: They I mean, what do you think you need running back?

1918
01:43:51,560 --> 01:43:55,760
Speaker 4: That was healthier offensive line? I think they signed one guy. Right,

1919
01:43:55,800 --> 01:44:00,880
Speaker 4: they signed Braden Smith. I think the Colts they you know,

1920
01:44:01,640 --> 01:44:03,920
Speaker 4: average grade, and I don't feel like they've done terribly much.

1921
01:44:03,920 --> 01:44:06,400
Speaker 4: But again, I mean, look, a lot of teams don't

1922
01:44:06,400 --> 01:44:08,720
Speaker 4: do much effraigency. That's in the first wave. That's just

1923
01:44:08,760 --> 01:44:11,120
Speaker 4: that's what the sport is, right. The best teams typically

1924
01:44:11,120 --> 01:44:11,679
Speaker 4: don't do that.

1925
01:44:14,320 --> 01:44:18,280
Speaker 3: No, the best teams usually resign their own is really

1926
01:44:18,640 --> 01:44:19,760
Speaker 3: when it comes down to.

1927
01:44:20,400 --> 01:44:21,759
Speaker 2: But they had to fix the line.

1928
01:44:21,800 --> 01:44:24,479
Speaker 3: They I mean, their whole thing is that line has

1929
01:44:24,479 --> 01:44:27,120
Speaker 3: been a disaster because the only way you're gonna get,

1930
01:44:27,120 --> 01:44:30,200
Speaker 3: you're gonna survive with the quarterback is if you protect them.

1931
01:44:30,520 --> 01:44:34,240
Speaker 2: Correct. Yes, I did think they overpaid. I love read

1932
01:44:34,280 --> 01:44:38,320
Speaker 2: blanket ship, great kid, but they gave him twenty four

1933
01:44:38,400 --> 01:44:39,679
Speaker 2: million in change.

1934
01:44:42,680 --> 01:44:48,960
Speaker 4: Look, man, again, these deals, the real deal is of

1935
01:44:49,080 --> 01:44:52,640
Speaker 4: course different than the actual numbers. I just see these

1936
01:44:52,720 --> 01:44:54,599
Speaker 4: numbers and it's not really what they get. I'm curious

1937
01:44:54,640 --> 01:45:01,000
Speaker 4: what actual deal is. Yeah, I mean sixteen and it's guaranteed.

1938
01:45:01,960 --> 01:45:03,920
Speaker 4: So two years of this deal is guaranteed.

1939
01:45:04,240 --> 01:45:06,400
Speaker 2: That's not that's not it's not a ton of money.

1940
01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:13,680
Speaker 2: I mean eight million and change. I think so.

1941
01:45:14,240 --> 01:45:20,680
Speaker 3: I was surprised anyway, the Cults re signed Daniel Jones

1942
01:45:22,080 --> 01:45:25,639
Speaker 3: to a two year, eighty eight million dollar deal could

1943
01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:29,720
Speaker 3: be worth up to one hundred and includes more than

1944
01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:34,360
Speaker 3: sixty million guaranteed. Fifty is guaranteed in the first year.

1945
01:45:35,600 --> 01:45:40,680
Speaker 2: And they and they pair that with Alec Pierce becomes

1946
01:45:40,720 --> 01:45:45,960
Speaker 2: the highest paid receiver in football, resetting the market one

1947
01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:50,640
Speaker 2: hundred and sixteen million bucks eighty four million guaranteed.

1948
01:45:52,680 --> 01:45:57,040
Speaker 4: You know, so the general manager has been there nine years,

1949
01:45:57,320 --> 01:46:01,759
Speaker 4: when Chris balisbir nine years? Do you how many times

1950
01:46:01,800 --> 01:46:03,280
Speaker 4: they've been the playoffs in nine years?

1951
01:46:06,080 --> 01:46:12,879
Speaker 2: Go ahead? Was did you take your guess once once? Yeah?

1952
01:46:14,600 --> 01:46:17,360
Speaker 4: I'm just like, is that if Harry Roseman made the

1953
01:46:17,400 --> 01:46:19,280
Speaker 4: playoffs once and nine years, would he keep his job?

1954
01:46:19,479 --> 01:46:20,240
Speaker 2: No, he would not.

1955
01:46:20,840 --> 01:46:29,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't, I don't, okay, peers. So so Daniel Jones,

1956
01:46:29,280 --> 01:46:31,599
Speaker 4: I gave thirty seven million dollars to the Treasures attack, right,

1957
01:46:31,720 --> 01:46:33,559
Speaker 4: And the idea was that, like that was cheaper than

1958
01:46:33,560 --> 01:46:35,800
Speaker 4: the franchise tag And that would have been a one

1959
01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:38,080
Speaker 4: year deal for thirty seven million dollars. And yeah, it

1960
01:46:38,080 --> 01:46:39,920
Speaker 4: would have been thirty seven dollars on the cap. It

1961
01:46:39,920 --> 01:46:42,160
Speaker 4: would have crushed your cap. I get it. So I

1962
01:46:42,200 --> 01:46:44,360
Speaker 4: said they give him a two year deal that essentially

1963
01:46:44,360 --> 01:46:47,360
Speaker 4: guarantees him fifty million dollars instead of thirty seven, right

1964
01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:50,280
Speaker 4: up to sixty million if he's injured he can't play

1965
01:46:50,439 --> 01:46:54,800
Speaker 4: right and then obviously next year he gets the rest

1966
01:46:54,800 --> 01:46:57,360
Speaker 4: of that contract. And really this is the treasure tag

1967
01:46:58,040 --> 01:46:59,160
Speaker 4: plus the franchise tag.

1968
01:46:59,400 --> 01:47:01,160
Speaker 2: He get eighty million for next season.

1969
01:47:02,000 --> 01:47:06,200
Speaker 4: But is Diane Jones off an injury? Like I just

1970
01:47:06,960 --> 01:47:09,040
Speaker 4: pair of Alec Peerce. I don't get what they're doing.

1971
01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:13,960
Speaker 4: You know, Andrew Luck retired nine eight years ago, Like

1972
01:47:14,000 --> 01:47:16,479
Speaker 4: you got to figure out quarterback man Daniel joneses not

1973
01:47:16,720 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 4: is just not the answer. I don't know what the

1974
01:47:19,960 --> 01:47:22,880
Speaker 4: answer is, to be honest with you. But paying them

1975
01:47:22,880 --> 01:47:25,519
Speaker 4: all that money plus Alc Pierce off his best year

1976
01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:29,240
Speaker 4: of an NFL, NFL career, I know they're not making

1977
01:47:29,240 --> 01:47:30,040
Speaker 4: the playoffs this year.

1978
01:47:29,920 --> 01:47:32,320
Speaker 2: Again, I'll tell you that. I'm I'm gonna take there.

1979
01:47:32,320 --> 01:47:35,599
Speaker 2: I'm taking their under for the season, all right, Uh?

1980
01:47:36,680 --> 01:47:44,120
Speaker 3: Titans Juan Dale Robinson seventy eight dollars.

1981
01:47:44,320 --> 01:47:46,840
Speaker 4: What I saw a tweet that was like basically like

1982
01:47:47,760 --> 01:47:51,840
Speaker 4: Robert sala and and and Brian Dable. I'll bring it

1983
01:47:51,880 --> 01:47:53,360
Speaker 4: back all the players that got them fired at their

1984
01:47:53,400 --> 01:47:54,200
Speaker 4: previous jobs.

1985
01:47:55,200 --> 01:47:59,840
Speaker 2: Really, what are you do with Daniel Bellinger?

1986
01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:01,320
Speaker 1: One?

1987
01:48:01,479 --> 01:48:04,519
Speaker 2: Dale Robinson? Man, that's all about who you know in

1988
01:48:04,520 --> 01:48:05,120
Speaker 2: this business, right.

1989
01:48:05,160 --> 01:48:10,200
Speaker 3: They get Franklin Myers three years, sixty three million dollars. Yeah,

1990
01:48:11,160 --> 01:48:15,440
Speaker 3: let'll do something a lot teke tail your three years

1991
01:48:15,479 --> 01:48:16,960
Speaker 3: sixty million.

1992
01:48:16,640 --> 01:48:27,640
Speaker 2: Bucks for a lante. Don't love it, no, man, I'm

1993
01:48:27,640 --> 01:48:28,360
Speaker 2: gonna tell you.

1994
01:48:30,280 --> 01:48:35,720
Speaker 4: All right, broncos they does nothing, zero zero signings.

1995
01:48:36,439 --> 01:48:42,839
Speaker 2: But resigning guys. The only guy that they they resigned everybody. Yeah.

1996
01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:49,200
Speaker 3: Again, I had a uh uh somebody league say it's

1997
01:48:49,240 --> 01:48:52,439
Speaker 3: just fools gold out there, and the best way to

1998
01:48:52,520 --> 01:48:55,960
Speaker 3: do it is pick one player who you think is

1999
01:48:56,040 --> 01:49:02,000
Speaker 3: the difference in building your team, Like the Eagles wing

2000
01:49:02,240 --> 01:49:05,919
Speaker 3: like identified Sae Kwon Barkley all right two years ago

2001
01:49:06,680 --> 01:49:07,559
Speaker 3: and it helped him.

2002
01:49:08,439 --> 01:49:09,639
Speaker 2: Right. The Rams this.

2003
01:49:09,680 --> 01:49:13,160
Speaker 3: Year say why we need we need a cornerback stud

2004
01:49:13,439 --> 01:49:15,400
Speaker 3: in the middle of our secondary It was a problem

2005
01:49:15,479 --> 01:49:15,920
Speaker 3: last year.

2006
01:49:16,320 --> 01:49:19,599
Speaker 2: They get Trent McDuffie and then add Watson too, Just

2007
01:49:19,640 --> 01:49:25,759
Speaker 2: for for grins and giggles. Did Chief sign Kenneth Walker?

2008
01:49:28,040 --> 01:49:30,960
Speaker 4: Yeah? And they also you know they let go like

2009
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:35,560
Speaker 4: their entire second area is gone, right, Yes, I uh

2010
01:49:35,840 --> 01:49:37,760
Speaker 4: I like to sign, and I got a buddy of

2011
01:49:37,760 --> 01:49:39,880
Speaker 4: mine is not too happy about that. Oh, I know,

2012
01:49:40,400 --> 01:49:42,320
Speaker 4: but it's his fault for developing all these guys, to

2013
01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:44,320
Speaker 4: tell me, you know, if he developed if he was

2014
01:49:44,400 --> 01:49:46,519
Speaker 4: worse than his job, he wouldn't wouldn't they wouldn't get

2015
01:49:46,560 --> 01:49:52,800
Speaker 4: rid of asset players. So, h Kenneth Walker interesting. So

2016
01:49:53,080 --> 01:49:56,439
Speaker 4: I was abay this with with my brother, you know,

2017
01:49:56,520 --> 01:49:59,760
Speaker 4: like so I I said, when he signed him, you

2018
01:49:59,760 --> 01:50:01,000
Speaker 4: know I I think the Chiefs are they going to

2019
01:50:01,080 --> 01:50:02,080
Speaker 4: change their offense for him?

2020
01:50:02,120 --> 01:50:02,320
Speaker 2: Right?

2021
01:50:03,040 --> 01:50:05,479
Speaker 4: And my brother made the argument, it's valid that you

2022
01:50:05,520 --> 01:50:08,240
Speaker 4: know any reasons unlikely to do that, which makes sense,

2023
01:50:08,280 --> 01:50:10,640
Speaker 4: which is true. But you know, if you just are

2024
01:50:10,680 --> 01:50:13,080
Speaker 4: able to do what they do now, but add in

2025
01:50:14,000 --> 01:50:16,800
Speaker 4: two explosive runs a game, right, because they have zero

2026
01:50:16,800 --> 01:50:20,840
Speaker 4: explosive runs. You know, if if Isaiah Pacheco needed three yards,

2027
01:50:21,080 --> 01:50:23,400
Speaker 4: he gets you three yards. If he needed six, he

2028
01:50:23,439 --> 01:50:27,400
Speaker 4: gets you three yards. Like the least explosive rushing in

2029
01:50:27,439 --> 01:50:30,240
Speaker 4: the NFL. And Kenth Walker is the most explosive running

2030
01:50:30,240 --> 01:50:32,160
Speaker 4: back in the NFL. He adds that to the offense.

2031
01:50:32,760 --> 01:50:34,400
Speaker 4: I know they overpaid. I know you don't want to

2032
01:50:34,520 --> 01:50:36,599
Speaker 4: pay for running back, but they just need. They need

2033
01:50:36,600 --> 01:50:38,760
Speaker 4: that on offense in the worst way. They overspent because

2034
01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:41,439
Speaker 4: they just failed to have that position stock the way

2035
01:50:41,439 --> 01:50:43,600
Speaker 4: they need to. So I like that side just to

2036
01:50:43,640 --> 01:50:46,320
Speaker 4: give another option for Mahomes coming off that injury, right, Like,

2037
01:50:46,360 --> 01:50:48,240
Speaker 4: that's run the ball a little bit more. But there's

2038
01:50:48,280 --> 01:50:49,519
Speaker 4: a lot of work to be done on that roster.

2039
01:50:49,640 --> 01:50:52,839
Speaker 4: The secondary is now super young, right, and I imagine

2040
01:50:52,840 --> 01:50:55,720
Speaker 4: they add to that secondary again in the draft. They

2041
01:50:55,720 --> 01:51:00,559
Speaker 4: did sign a safety from the Ravens, Travis Kelce is back, uh,

2042
01:51:00,640 --> 01:51:03,000
Speaker 4: but still wid wide receiver is really lacking.

2043
01:51:04,439 --> 01:51:05,519
Speaker 2: They signed Thornton back.

2044
01:51:05,600 --> 01:51:08,320
Speaker 4: I I you know, maybe he's gonna develop into a star,

2045
01:51:08,439 --> 01:51:09,679
Speaker 4: but there's a lot of holes that roster.

2046
01:51:09,760 --> 01:51:09,920
Speaker 2: Still.

2047
01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:12,479
Speaker 4: The ten half win total that's posted for them feels

2048
01:51:12,520 --> 01:51:14,280
Speaker 4: way too high, buddy, way it does.

2049
01:51:14,560 --> 01:51:19,439
Speaker 3: It does Raiders, So they get Crossby have to take

2050
01:51:19,479 --> 01:51:26,360
Speaker 3: Crossby back after spending a lot Jalen Neller Tyler linderbound,

2051
01:51:26,360 --> 01:51:29,599
Speaker 3: which I was gonna get your take on that and

2052
01:51:29,640 --> 01:51:33,160
Speaker 3: that deal. I think it's smart, but they paid for it.

2053
01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:39,519
Speaker 3: Quitty pay goes there to Kobe Dean kway Walker both.

2054
01:51:39,360 --> 01:51:40,920
Speaker 2: Get real money.

2055
01:51:41,600 --> 01:51:48,680
Speaker 3: They acquire Tyron Johnson, so Toron Johnson goes there. What

2056
01:51:48,760 --> 01:51:52,640
Speaker 3: do you what do you think about the Linderboump thing. Know, one,

2057
01:51:52,680 --> 01:51:56,479
Speaker 3: you're gonna get Mendoza and pairing him with his center.

2058
01:51:59,760 --> 01:52:05,800
Speaker 4: So so the Raiders are no datably better right now

2059
01:52:06,040 --> 01:52:08,439
Speaker 4: with the additions they've made on their roster. I'm believe

2060
01:52:08,479 --> 01:52:11,360
Speaker 4: like they just are better football team. The linder Bomb

2061
01:52:11,439 --> 01:52:15,599
Speaker 4: one is interesting. So I think that that NFL history

2062
01:52:15,640 --> 01:52:20,120
Speaker 4: will tell you that you can't have a good quarterback,

2063
01:52:20,479 --> 01:52:23,880
Speaker 4: elite quarterback without a good center. Like think about even

2064
01:52:23,960 --> 01:52:26,320
Speaker 4: just right now, right like, think about the best offenses

2065
01:52:26,320 --> 01:52:29,200
Speaker 4: in the NFL, the best quarterbacks in the NFL, their

2066
01:52:29,240 --> 01:52:31,400
Speaker 4: centers are above average. You just look at the history

2067
01:52:31,400 --> 01:52:35,080
Speaker 4: of the NFL. Right, centers typically stay with the quarterback. Right,

2068
01:52:35,280 --> 01:52:38,479
Speaker 4: it's such an important position. And to have to have

2069
01:52:38,520 --> 01:52:42,000
Speaker 4: that veteran linder Bomb with Mendoza is going to help

2070
01:52:42,040 --> 01:52:42,920
Speaker 4: him so much.

2071
01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:43,679
Speaker 2: Right, he may be.

2072
01:52:43,560 --> 01:52:46,679
Speaker 4: Overpaid, and there's some injury history the question marks there

2073
01:52:46,720 --> 01:52:49,400
Speaker 4: with the neck. I think, but ers had to do it.

2074
01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:52,040
Speaker 4: They needed a veteran center, they need offensive line help.

2075
01:52:52,439 --> 01:52:55,920
Speaker 4: I like what they did. And even again you say yourself,

2076
01:52:55,920 --> 01:52:59,639
Speaker 4: well they got better in frequency and then also.

2077
01:52:59,400 --> 01:53:00,599
Speaker 2: At a Max Carl. It back to the line.

2078
01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:02,960
Speaker 4: But it's a much better team, no doubt about it.

2079
01:53:02,960 --> 01:53:05,479
Speaker 4: It's a much better roster than it was last season.

2080
01:53:06,760 --> 01:53:09,720
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, tight end and center. By the way, tight

2081
01:53:09,800 --> 01:53:11,600
Speaker 4: end and center you can't have. You need either of

2082
01:53:11,640 --> 01:53:13,839
Speaker 4: those to beget an offense.

2083
01:53:14,920 --> 01:53:21,280
Speaker 2: Agreed. You know, it's nuts Charges to do anything offensive

2084
01:53:21,320 --> 01:53:28,080
Speaker 2: line beyond it and strange I think, right, it got strange.

2085
01:53:29,760 --> 01:53:31,320
Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean, they we sat out of

2086
01:53:31,360 --> 01:53:38,559
Speaker 2: their guys. They need a receiver. They got Charlie Kohlar.

2087
01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:46,800
Speaker 2: I actually liked that move. I the Chargers are short

2088
01:53:46,840 --> 01:53:50,559
Speaker 2: of build their offense around in the run game, right, Yeah,

2089
01:53:50,560 --> 01:53:53,320
Speaker 2: but you still need these forget justin Herby, he's the

2090
01:53:53,400 --> 01:53:54,960
Speaker 2: throwing gives them out.

2091
01:53:55,520 --> 01:53:58,240
Speaker 4: Just by the way he is living his best life

2092
01:53:58,280 --> 01:54:01,960
Speaker 4: right now. Yeah, he's just he's out of doubt with

2093
01:54:01,960 --> 01:54:03,840
Speaker 4: his new with his new girlfriend man, and she's like,

2094
01:54:03,840 --> 01:54:09,840
Speaker 4: you know, she's like a uh you know, uh artist, and.

2095
01:54:08,840 --> 01:54:10,960
Speaker 2: He's good for him. I'm it's good.

2096
01:54:11,280 --> 01:54:13,800
Speaker 4: It's so funy because it's so funny because you know,

2097
01:54:13,840 --> 01:54:16,320
Speaker 4: he's just like quiet kids from Eugene who everyone was like,

2098
01:54:16,400 --> 01:54:18,880
Speaker 4: you know, the pre draft stuff was sort of like,

2099
01:54:19,280 --> 01:54:20,960
Speaker 4: you know, I don't know if he has if he

2100
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:22,760
Speaker 4: can be a leader. It's just so quiet now he's

2101
01:54:22,760 --> 01:54:23,560

Speaker 2: I wanted to finish it. Uh.

2117
01:55:23,760 --> 01:55:29,080
Speaker 3: What do you think about the Cowboys? They re signed

2118
01:55:29,120 --> 01:55:32,000
Speaker 3: the Pickens and Javonte Williams is a big deal. They

2119
01:55:32,080 --> 01:55:37,520
Speaker 3: add for that dreadful defense. They add Rashawn Gary, which

2120
01:55:37,640 --> 01:55:38,200
Speaker 3: I don't like.

2121
01:55:38,360 --> 01:55:40,600
Speaker 2: Dude. See, this is the thing about the crossby trade.

2122
01:55:40,640 --> 01:55:41,680
Speaker 2: They probably would have been on the.

2123
01:55:41,600 --> 01:55:45,160
Speaker 4: Crossby Trade if they had known he was available again.

2124
01:55:46,080 --> 01:55:49,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I don't like Gary. He lost weight

2125
01:55:50,280 --> 01:55:54,600
Speaker 2: and you don't have the same power. We tried to

2126
01:55:54,600 --> 01:55:57,920
Speaker 2: get Leaner. I don't know. I don't think they did

2127
01:55:58,040 --> 01:56:04,160
Speaker 2: enough defensively, buddy either. You know, giants get Isaiah likely

2128
01:56:05,520 --> 01:56:11,000
Speaker 2: to play tight and I'm not sure what you think

2129
01:56:11,080 --> 01:56:15,040
Speaker 2: of of what the Giants did. He sort of like Ricard,

2130
01:56:15,440 --> 01:56:17,360
Speaker 2: He's sort of like a guy that you know again,

2131
01:56:17,480 --> 01:56:20,280
Speaker 2: like just doesn't have a ton of reps.

2132
01:56:20,720 --> 01:56:26,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, Eagles just the big thing was they re signed

2133
01:56:26,440 --> 01:56:30,480
Speaker 3: Jordan Davis. They're they're a tough cap spot. I know

2134
01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:33,960
Speaker 3: they're gonna resign Jalen Carter. They're working on a deal

2135
01:56:34,000 --> 01:56:38,480
Speaker 3: for Carter. They're gonna have to pay Cooper dejen quinnyon Mitchell.

2136
01:56:39,240 --> 01:56:42,200
Speaker 2: So they're kind then they really keeping them or what's

2137
01:56:42,200 --> 01:56:44,560
Speaker 2: the deal with that? Yeah, I was told.

2138
01:56:44,800 --> 01:56:48,560
Speaker 3: I was told yesterday that he's here, keeping him for

2139
01:56:48,680 --> 01:56:53,440
Speaker 3: now for the like they expect him to.

2140
01:56:53,520 --> 01:56:56,880
Speaker 2: Be part of the team like that.

2141
01:56:57,000 --> 01:57:01,760
Speaker 9: They've told them, like, you're not going anywhere, okay.

2142
01:57:01,200 --> 01:57:04,960
Speaker 3: So they've talked to him, said hey, you know, and

2143
01:57:05,040 --> 01:57:08,400
Speaker 3: I think he's I think he's okay with it. Look,

2144
01:57:08,440 --> 01:57:09,920
Speaker 3: how you wanted if you're going to get if you

2145
01:57:09,920 --> 01:57:11,600
Speaker 3: were going to trade him, you got to get two

2146
01:57:11,680 --> 01:57:14,360
Speaker 3: ones or slept the close to that, and they weren't

2147
01:57:14,400 --> 01:57:14,800
Speaker 3: getting it.

2148
01:57:14,920 --> 01:57:17,680
Speaker 2: He's a forty million dollar cap hit. Yeah.

2149
01:57:18,040 --> 01:57:21,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know they were trying to do to

2150
01:57:21,440 --> 01:57:23,480
Speaker 3: do it, and they had a couple of teams interested

2151
01:57:23,520 --> 01:57:24,640
Speaker 3: but never got their price.

2152
01:57:26,680 --> 01:57:31,920
Speaker 2: Washington, Do you understand Washington? Not really?

2153
01:57:32,600 --> 01:57:34,600
Speaker 4: I mean, I like the Tunsil. I'll bring Tunzel back.

2154
01:57:34,640 --> 01:57:36,000
Speaker 4: They had to do that, I felt like. But yeah,

2155
01:57:36,000 --> 01:57:37,520
Speaker 4: I don't mean sometimes they feel like a team that

2156
01:57:37,560 --> 01:57:38,840
Speaker 4: doesn't either had a plan last year.

2157
01:57:38,880 --> 01:57:43,320
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know what the plan is now. Yeah,

2158
01:57:43,640 --> 01:57:50,440
Speaker 2: I mean one hundred million for away, Yeah, a lot

2159
01:57:50,480 --> 01:57:55,080
Speaker 2: of money, get buddy, a lot of money. I think

2160
01:57:55,080 --> 01:57:56,640
Speaker 2: the Bears are going to be good.

2161
01:57:58,160 --> 01:58:00,720
Speaker 4: So here's my thing about the Bears this year is

2162
01:58:00,760 --> 01:58:06,240
Speaker 4: that history will tell you that when you win a

2163
01:58:06,280 --> 01:58:07,920
Speaker 4: lot of close games and next year you lose a

2164
01:58:07,960 --> 01:58:11,080
Speaker 4: lot of close games. And that's my concern about them

2165
01:58:11,160 --> 01:58:15,040
Speaker 4: is they won so many games last season at the

2166
01:58:15,160 --> 01:58:18,000
Speaker 4: very end by one score. They won six games in

2167
01:58:18,080 --> 01:58:20,240
Speaker 4: recro season where they were trailing under two minutes left.

2168
01:58:21,560 --> 01:58:26,800
Speaker 4: That's not gonna happen. This season, and so are they

2169
01:58:26,800 --> 01:58:28,360
Speaker 4: going to be that much better? Where they do? They

2170
01:58:28,360 --> 01:58:32,240
Speaker 4: don't play close games? Like what is what? That's that's

2171
01:58:32,320 --> 01:58:34,840
Speaker 4: my that's my issue, that's my concern with them.

2172
01:58:35,000 --> 01:58:37,760
Speaker 3: So I think they're gonna be better. Like if you

2173
01:58:37,760 --> 01:58:40,280
Speaker 3: know who threw their cop is Washington.

2174
01:58:41,120 --> 01:58:45,120
Speaker 2: And Washington stunt last season? Right, but Washington went out

2175
01:58:45,240 --> 01:58:51,600
Speaker 2: and and they tried. They had terrible signings and.

2176
01:58:51,640 --> 01:58:56,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah players, they went forward with younger players last year.

2177
01:58:57,840 --> 01:59:01,440
Speaker 4: I didn't like you like older players last year.

2178
01:59:01,480 --> 01:59:03,680
Speaker 2: Old, right, you're still throwing a d. But the ones

2179
01:59:03,760 --> 01:59:08,640
Speaker 2: they don't got d overpaid for debo, you're still zach Ertz.

2180
01:59:08,760 --> 01:59:10,840
Speaker 2: They got a couple of old guys on one. They

2181
01:59:10,840 --> 01:59:13,560
Speaker 2: had no running game. I hate that. I hate what

2182
01:59:13,640 --> 01:59:18,320
Speaker 2: they do with that roster. Yeah, no, I didn't love it.

2183
01:59:19,800 --> 01:59:22,680
Speaker 2: So I like Chicago, I like, I like. I still

2184
01:59:22,720 --> 01:59:23,560
Speaker 2: like what you're doing.

2185
01:59:24,440 --> 01:59:29,320
Speaker 3: Uh, Detroit, basically just the ads.

2186
01:59:30,120 --> 01:59:34,520
Speaker 2: They had scrugs in the trade. I don't know, you

2187
01:59:34,640 --> 01:59:40,600
Speaker 2: like scrugs. It's fine. They are going to hit to

2188
01:59:40,600 --> 01:59:43,000
Speaker 2: their offense a lot over the years. Now, Tricia, take it,

2189
01:59:43,200 --> 01:59:47,640
Speaker 2: took it, I know, dude, that's that's it. Where do

2190
01:59:47,680 --> 01:59:54,760
Speaker 2: you think about the uh, the Falcons. I mean, look,

2191
01:59:54,800 --> 01:59:59,360
Speaker 2: you re signed most of your guys, right, I like,

2192
01:59:59,600 --> 02:00:04,400
Speaker 2: I like you signed Pitts. What do you what do

2193
02:00:04,440 --> 02:00:07,280
Speaker 2: you think about them? And then they got a little

2194
02:00:07,320 --> 02:00:10,960
Speaker 2: tweaks o Jali, I just don't bring back to kas.

2195
02:00:11,200 --> 02:00:13,600
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't get to John Dotson, but I.

2196
02:00:15,120 --> 02:00:20,520
Speaker 4: Just don't like the the courtback situation for them. Maybe

2197
02:00:20,560 --> 02:00:22,240
Speaker 4: maybe Michael Pennix can be in when they throw the

2198
02:00:22,240 --> 02:00:24,040
Speaker 4: ball outside the numbers and then you bring two into

2199
02:00:24,040 --> 02:00:25,080
Speaker 4: throw into the numbers.

2200
02:00:30,000 --> 02:00:34,200
Speaker 2: No, yeah, you're hey, you're not wrong. I can't do that.

2201
02:00:34,960 --> 02:00:40,920
Speaker 2: You're not wrong, buddy. Ultimately, I think that the team

2202
02:00:41,320 --> 02:00:46,440
Speaker 2: in the NFC that had the best the best week

2203
02:00:47,160 --> 02:00:54,680
Speaker 2: was the Rams. Trent McDuffie, Right, you resigned Cameron Curl,

2204
02:00:55,120 --> 02:00:59,760
Speaker 2: you get Jalen Watson. That's your secondary, that's your that's

2205
02:01:00,080 --> 02:01:02,560
Speaker 2: that's much badage your only week this last year.

2206
02:01:03,960 --> 02:01:09,520
Speaker 4: The Rams essentially got an all Pro player at the

2207
02:01:09,560 --> 02:01:12,520
Speaker 4: most important position that they need to fill for a

2208
02:01:12,520 --> 02:01:14,200
Speaker 4: first round pick for the twenty ninth pick. I mean,

2209
02:01:14,240 --> 02:01:15,120
Speaker 4: you probably could.

2210
02:01:14,880 --> 02:01:19,160
Speaker 2: Ask for a better a better way to make your

2211
02:01:19,160 --> 02:01:20,480
Speaker 2: team better than what they did.

2212
02:01:20,680 --> 02:01:23,280
Speaker 4: It's a great trade for them. Chiefs too, Chiefs needs.

2213
02:01:23,320 --> 02:01:24,920
Speaker 4: I think Chiefs needed to need to do it to

2214
02:01:24,960 --> 02:01:27,200
Speaker 4: the working pay mcduffee found. I think I think it

2215
02:01:27,480 --> 02:01:29,520
Speaker 4: works for both teams. I know your boys angry about it,

2216
02:01:29,560 --> 02:01:32,000
Speaker 4: but like from my perspective, it's a win for both.

2217
02:01:32,800 --> 02:01:35,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, that's good to do for us. Listen,

2218
02:01:35,720 --> 02:01:39,840
Speaker 2: good luck today, yo, thank you. It's gonna be awesome, man,

2219
02:01:39,840 --> 02:01:43,720
Speaker 2: it be fun. Jeff Jeff's daughter at softball seat he's coaching.

2220
02:01:44,160 --> 02:01:46,000
Speaker 2: So everybody have a great week. We
