1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 2: After months, maybe even years of speculation, finally it happened.

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 2: After constantly hearing Max Crosby's gonna get traded, Who's Max

4
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 2: Crosby gonna get traded too, it finally happened. Max Crosby

5
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 2: is headed to the Baltimore Ravens. What's it mean for everybody?

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 2: How are we feeling about it?

7
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 3: Honestly? How am I feeling about it?

8
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 2: As I sitting here with the Max Crosby side jersey

9
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: right behind my head.

10
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 3: It's Bucket fits on Fox Sports Radio. He's buck rising up,

11
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 3: Jason fitz buck. I've been waiting all day for this

12
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 3: moment where we get to talk about it because my

13
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 3: buddy Max Crosby gets traded from my beloved Raiders to

14
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 3: the Baltimore Ravens. I'm sitting here with the Raiders jersey

15
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 3: behind me, realizing it is the end of an era,

16
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 3: and this is one of those rare moments where man

17
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 3: like I feel a million different guys' ways.

18
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest, I'm sitting here saying it makes sense.

19
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 2: You and I've talked about why. I think it was

20
00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 2: kind of a win win the Raiders pick up two

21
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,640
Speaker 2: first round draft pick for a team that's nowhere near

22
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 2: ready to compete. It just stinks when you constant, really

23
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 2: constantly realize that your favorite team, even when they get

24
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: good players, A can't win with them and B can't

25
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: hold on to them. It's sort of a reminder of

26
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 2: why certain teams have it and certain teams don't.

27
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 3: And no matter how.

28
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: We parse it out, at some point, I think Max

29
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: is a winner. He can go win some Super Bowls.

30
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 2: The rest of it, We're gonna have to see how

31
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 2: it plays out. But today is one of those tough

32
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 2: days for fans as they sit there and realize, man,

33
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 2: my favorite team is nowhere near competing, even with one

34
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 2: of the best players in the league, having spent several

35
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 2: years trying to change the culture.

36
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 4: There two things.

37
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 5: One, I'll put it before the court, Mary Mack being

38
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 5: the court, my buddy Max Crosby.

39
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 4: Fine or no fine.

40
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 5: I think it's important context cause I'm not asking you,

41
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 5: not asking you each your whatever you're eating, whatever you're

42
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 5: shoveling in your face, as we do live right across

43
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 5: the nation.

44
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 4: Whatever whatever it is that.

45
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 5: You can't be bothered to wait until before or after

46
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 5: the show.

47
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 3: I'm emotionally eating here Buck emotionally, I.

48
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 4: Went into a bar city eating.

49
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 3: I went into a.

50
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: Bar today and I was immediately like a buddy walked

51
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 2: up in the bar and said, man, I was laughing

52
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 2: out loud yesterday you making fun of your co host

53
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: wearing just a robe. So I don't want to hear

54
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 2: anything about professionalism because you barely got dressed for two

55
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 2: pros and a cup of Joe yesterday morning.

56
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 3: Just because you're wearing a shirt.

57
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 2: Today doesn't mean you get to call me out when

58
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 2: I'm trying to shovel in some good nutrition.

59
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 5: I was just trying to Also, who's to say that

60
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 5: I have pants on today? As we do the radio

61
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 5: show in the world middle of.

62
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 4: The afternoon, Mary Mack fine or no fine?

63
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 3: She's giving no fine, no fine?

64
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: Mary Max showing up to work in just a dude

65
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: to Bide's robe with your chest air popping out while

66
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 2: you're facetiming with your co host and nobody sure if

67
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: you're wearing underwear or not, but you certainly look like

68
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 2: you just had an all night er with.

69
00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 3: Somebody that you probably don't know their last name. Is

70
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 3: that fine or not?

71
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 4: A fine?

72
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 2: Mary Max completely out on the show. Mary mackis decided

73
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 2: she's she's done, she's done with both of us. She's

74
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 2: done this, Buck, this is what's happening.

75
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 3: Not so now that we've determined, not a fine from

76
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 3: me with Max Cross. It's fine. It's a fine. Oh

77
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 3: I'm getting fine.

78
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,519
Speaker 4: It's not a fine me.

79
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 3: I want to go put my parfae in the fridge.

80
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 2: It's a fine both the Yuh, Okay, we're both fine.

81
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 4: I mean, I was just giving my part in the

82
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,680
Speaker 4: fridge show just started.

83
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: I'm just I'm just giving context here, Bluck. How we

84
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 2: How should I feel right now?

85
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 4: Well, no, I'm not going to tell you how you

86
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 4: should feel. I mean, that's rich.

87
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 5: I don't care how you feel. No, I of course

88
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 5: I care about, uh, your fragile emotional state, because again

89
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 5: I'm I'm just happy to see you eating food in

90
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 5: front of us for once, as opposed to, you know,

91
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 5: whatever ridiculous starvation diet you've been on these past I

92
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 5: don't know, two years.

93
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 4: I am.

94
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 5: I view this a bit, as you know, it's kind

95
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 5: of like a relationship type of situation where you've been

96
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,119
Speaker 5: on the fence about whether or not you should break

97
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 5: up with this particular person, and finally there comes a

98
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 5: moment where you get the closure of Okay, it's just

99
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 5: now over. It's finally over. We can both move on.

100
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 5: Everybody can, you know, go their separate ways. But one

101
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 5: side is going to be left in a worse situation

102
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 5: than the other depending on who made the decision. Now,

103
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 5: if you're a Raiders fan, your organization made the decision

104
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 5: to trade him away. Trade Max Crosby to the Baltimore Ravens.

105
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 5: I don't like the trade for the Ravens, though, I

106
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 5: don't like it much at all.

107
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:42,719
Speaker 4: Two first round picks.

108
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 5: They've never traded a first for anybody, much less two

109
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 5: first round picks. And I'm not down on the player

110
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 5: that Max Crosby is, but just objectively as a football

111
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 5: fan and somebody who has seen Max Crosby play in

112
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 5: person covered games that Max Crosby has played in. Because

113
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 5: of the nature of my job covering the Tennessee Titans,

114
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 5: I was just in Las Vegas and watching him whoop

115
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,599
Speaker 5: some ass in a game that was really had nothing

116
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 5: else to be featured except for Max Crosby and Jeffrey Simmons.

117
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 5: I think that for Baltimore this is very uncharacteristic, and

118
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 5: maybe it is the thing that sets them over the top.

119
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 4: But they need those first round picks. And this is

120
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 4: not an.

121
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 5: Organization that does a move like this. Ever, they regenerate

122
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 5: their roster organically through the draft. They don't make big

123
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 5: splash moves like I mean Derek Henry.

124
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 4: I guess it is a big splash move. But even

125
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 4: then he was a thirty year.

126
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 5: Old running back that the world looked around and said,

127
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 5: how much longer can he keep doing this? Except Derek

128
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 5: is half man, half amazing. Is the fate does the

129
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 5: great Mike Keith once coined him. So that's a little

130
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 5: bit of a different scenario. I just I don't think

131
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 5: that this makes a lot of sense for Baltimore. If

132
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 5: that makes you feel any better, I think you want

133
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 5: the trade.

134
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 2: Look, I think here's the hardest part about it. When

135
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 2: you're treated for draft picks, the Raiders get two first rounders.

136
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 3: I watched John Gruden get.

137
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 2: Traded from the Raiders for draft picks, and those traft

138
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 2: picks became nothing. I watched Khalil Mack get traded from

139
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 2: the Raiders and those draft picks became nothing. I've watched

140
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 2: multiple trades where draft picks are the incentive, And as

141
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 2: you and I have talked a lot about, I want

142
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 2: to remind you most of us listening, if your team sucks,

143
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 2: part of the reason they suck is because they are

144
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 2: inherently bad at the draft, right, So, you know, getting

145
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 2: draft picks for a team that's bad because they don't

146
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 2: draft well doesn't feel particularly hopeful. But I do think

147
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,239
Speaker 2: there is hope in this. I think sometimes the toughest

148
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 2: thing to do in life is to look in the

149
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 2: mirror and realize that things aren't where they need to be.

150
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 2: And to me what the Raiders are finally admitting after

151
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 2: years of trying all these different ways to work around rebuild,

152
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 2: to work around the concept of a rebuild, to work

153
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 2: around this partial rebuild for everything that they always try

154
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 2: to do, to maintain some level of.

155
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,599
Speaker 3: You know, commitment to excellence that I grew up hearing.

156
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 2: I said, when Kubiak was hired, the one thing I

157
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 2: finally wanted to hear from a coach wasn't We're going

158
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: to bring back the greatness of the Raiders. It was, man,

159
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 2: do we have a lot of work to do? And

160
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 2: I think what's happened since Kubiak has been brought in.

161
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 2: Is that he and John Spytech, the head the general

162
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 2: manager of the Raiders, have finally acknowledged this team stinks.

163
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: And when you look at it through the lens of hey,

164
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 2: this is a multi year rebuild. What I see as

165
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 2: Max as twenty nine years old, and I've told you before,

166
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 2: as we've talked about this, even the prospect of him

167
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 2: being traded, I think the Raiders acknowledge that this is

168
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 2: a three year rebuild at least, right, so if everything

169
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: breaks right this year, this is a five or six

170
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 2: win football team with the quarterback that you hope is

171
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 2: the answer in Fernando Mendoza. And next year you hope

172
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: you get to eight or nine wins, and the year

173
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 2: after that you hope you're really in this pocket where

174
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 2: you are finally contending. That's a reasonable look at I

175
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 2: think what they're trying to build when you do that

176
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 2: with Max Crosby, by the time you get to the

177
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 2: point that you're contending, he's thirty two years old and

178
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 2: may or may not have as much left in the tank,

179
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 2: may not have I think what the Raiders did here

180
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 2: was they finally admitted they have looked in the mirror

181
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 2: and this is a three year and once you acknowledge

182
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 2: three years behind rebuild, and I know that's a long

183
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 2: time for everybody, but once you acknowledge three years as

184
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 2: a rebuild, now two first round picks this year, two

185
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 2: first round picks next year, and a ton of cap

186
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 2: space to spend, you would hope on young players that

187
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 2: you're going to try and develop. If those exist, it

188
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 2: does give you some at least idea. I think the

189
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 2: organization is finally looking in the mirror and saying, man,

190
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 2: I'm fat, and there's nothing that's going to make me

191
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 2: not fat quickly. I'm just going to have to do

192
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 2: the right things over and over and over again for

193
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 2: the next couple of years to get not fat. I

194
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: think that that's a message that the Raiders are sending you,

195
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 2: which is, I think, honestly the right one.

196
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,680
Speaker 4: Are we giving people three years to rebuild anymore?

197
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 5: Because it doesn't feel like that, like maybe that's something

198
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 5: that ownership says, But as somebody who covers a team

199
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,359
Speaker 5: that likes to, you know, fire people at will basically

200
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 5: on and I wouldn't say quite on a whim, like

201
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 5: there have been reasons each time somebody in Tennessee has

202
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 5: gotten fired. But you know, it's just kind of just

203
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 5: a weird carousel of who done it type of situations.

204
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 5: Where are you to blame for the fact that we

205
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 5: suck or is this person to blame? And you've got

206
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 5: people actively working against the interest of other people within

207
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 5: the building, and you create a Game and Thrones type environment.

208
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 5: I'm already reading stuff about the Raiders from Mike Silver. Now,

209
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 5: you did well on two pros when we were on

210
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 5: yesterday morning. By the way, we will be back on

211
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 5: two pros and a cup of Joe on Monday morning.

212
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 4: Because you just can't get enough of us around here. Apparently,

213
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 4: let's go. Yeah.

214
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 5: I think that in terms of Mark Davis, how do

215
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 5: you I don't know, do you trust him to commit

216
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 5: to it?

217
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 4: Is?

218
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 5: What is the feeling on Mark Davis's ownership Because he

219
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 5: gets good marks in the player's poll that the NFLPA does,

220
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 5: the player report cards or the team report cards. I

221
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 5: guess he typically gets good marks, but so does Amy

222
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 5: Adam Strunk. And that doesn't mean that they're good at

223
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 5: their respective jobs in terms of being an NFL owner

224
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 5: vision maker whose influence impacts every level of their respective organizations.

225
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 5: Just because you're a nice person and easy to be around.

226
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 5: Doesn't mean that you tend to make good decisions. He

227
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 5: is famous for not making good decisions.

228
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 2: I think Mark Davis in this current since he really

229
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 2: became the owner, I think he's had a lot of

230
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 2: James Dolan like qualities to him. Remember James Dolan for

231
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 2: the Knicks seemed to be involved until he wasn't involved,

232
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 2: and then he hired Phil Jackson because Phil Jackson was

233
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 2: a big name and a legend that was going to

234
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 2: come in. Then he supposedly let Phil take over, but

235
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 2: Phil really wasn't all that into it, and maybe Dolan

236
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 2: was interfering, and we don't know. Like, I think Mark

237
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 2: Davis is sort of that, like he wants to have

238
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 2: this six degrees of separation. Not my fault, guys, I

239
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,439
Speaker 2: don't really know football. I just hire people that do,

240
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 2: and he makes bad hires repeatedly. Here's the thing, Do

241
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 2: I know if it's.

242
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 3: Going to work? Do I trust Mark Davis to give

243
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 3: it time? No? But if he doesn't, does anything change?

244
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 2: If they just go into this year's draft with Mark

245
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 2: with the things the way they've been and Max Crosby

246
00:10:58,360 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 2: comes out and has the greatest season of his career.

247
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 2: As I told you yesterday and I will remind everybody,

248
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 2: I watched a season a couple of years ago where

249
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 2: Max was one of the league leaders in sacks, Josh

250
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 2: Jacobs led the league in rushing, and Devonte Adams had

251
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 2: a thousand yards receiving. And in that same season where

252
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 2: they all three did that at once, the Raiders won

253
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 2: six games. So like, this team sucks, this organization sucks

254
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 2: every single year. The Raiders are bad. What's going to

255
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 2: break that? I think at some point, you gotta get

256
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 2: a little bit lucky. Like I don't think that the

257
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 2: Houston Texans finally figured out how to have smart ownership

258
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 2: or a smart front office. I think the Houston Texans

259
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 2: finally got lucky in a year where they hired somebody

260
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 2: to become their head coach that aligned with a young

261
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 2: quarterback that had a historic rookie season, and everybody said,

262
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 2: oh my god, the Texans turned it around, right, Like

263
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 2: I think it's curious that Sean McDermott took over the Bills,

264
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 2: who at the time hadn't won anything in forever and

265
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 2: were dormant that it was McDermott brilliant. Was Josh Allen

266
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 2: a savior or did they get a little bit lucky

267
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 2: at the right time with all of it coming together.

268
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 2: I think at some point you just got a look

269
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 2: in the mirror and say, man, we saw and so

270
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 2: do I trust Mark Davis to give it three years?

271
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 3: No?

272
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 2: But I have looked at the rookie record of every

273
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 2: single starting quarterback that was drafted number one overall since

274
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 2: two thousand and the only one that has had a

275
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 2: winning record in the rookie season as a starter was

276
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 2: Andrew Luck. Every other quarterback drafted first overall has.

277
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 3: Had a.

278
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 2: Either eight hundred or five hundred record, I should say,

279
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 2: or less in their first year as a starter. So

280
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 2: what's that tell us? That tells us more than likely

281
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 2: the Raiders this year will be incredibly happy if they

282
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 2: win six or seven games, Like, that's more than likely

283
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 2: you're gonna get the six or seven wins, and next

284
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 2: year you hope that six or seven becomes eight or nine,

285
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 2: and then you like, that's just real it. Does patients exist?

286
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 4: No?

287
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 3: But is that the real answer? Yeah?

288
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 2: I think I don't think there's anything the Raiders can

289
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 2: do at this point this season to be competitive this year.

290
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,000
Speaker 5: As someone who covers a team, that most recently drafted

291
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 5: the last number one overall pick in the NFL draft.

292
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 5: You are adorable for thinking you're going to be able

293
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 5: to get to close to six or seven wins. You're right,

294
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 5: and my guy, listen, I won all the good things

295
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 5: in the world for my guy.

296
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 4: Fri Nanda Mendoza's in Indiana, Lum.

297
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 5: He has brought me the only source of sports happiness

298
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 5: that I think I've had basically since Christian Watford hit

299
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 5: the shot over Anthony Davis to knock off Number one Kentucky. Okay,

300
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 5: so I'm actively pulling for your Las Vegas Raiders. But Buddy,

301
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,079
Speaker 5: I saw that team play and they beat the Titans

302
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 5: last year, which is not in a kind of Pelt

303
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 5: on the wall type of situation. But my god, neither

304
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 5: team deserved to win that game.

305
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 3: And that's why the Crosby tray continues to make sense.

306
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 3: I believe this is a long, multi year rebuild.

307
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 2: Now, the question is what do you do with positional

308
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,959
Speaker 2: value and what positions actually can turn around a team

309
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 2: that sucks.

310
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 3: We'll answer that question for you next. He's Buck Rising.

311
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 3: I'm Jason fitzbuckin fits hanging out with you on Fox Sports.

Speaker 3: on not in on screen, but she is in on

329
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 3: scary movie which looks hysterical.

330
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 2: Maybe we can drag buck to that. I we did

331
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 2: to see Bride yesterday, The Bride, which is the new

332
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 2: Maggie Jillenhole Frankenstein movie, and like, I don't think I

333
00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 2: was smart enough for it. I'll be the first to

334
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 2: admit that there were times that I was very confused

335
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: watching and I was like, I'm not smart enough for

336
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 2: this movie.

337
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 3: Very art house like film sort of deep movie. But

338
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 3: I gotta give him credit. We always say Hollywood doesn't

339
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 3: do it anything new.

340
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 2: Original of the Bride is very original in the way

341
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 2: that it's portrayed and like even though it's a Frankenstein story,

342
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 2: it's a very interesting, interesting movie. See there are new,

343
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 2: great things happening. Even though Buck won't go see the

344

357
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 2: I needed to go to a movie yesterday to distract

358
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 2: myself from Max Crosby being traded.

359
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 3: In the amount of text I was getting about it.

360
00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 3: You raise a question.

361
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 2: We were talking a little bit about sort of having

362
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: the understanding of where your team is. And this is

363
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 2: what gets kind of interesting to me because we talked

364
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 2: about this a little with two pros, and I went back.

365
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 3: And looked at it.

366
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 2: If you go into last season and you take a

367
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 2: look at the execs, coaches, and scouts that talked to

368
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: Jeremy Fowler in July of twenty twenty five, they ranked

369
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 2: the top ten edge rushers for twenty twenty five for

370
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 2: going into last season. Who was perceived to be the

371
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 2: top ten? Quickly, I'll run through some of these names.

372
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 2: Miles Garrett number one didn't make the playoffs.

373
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 3: TJ.

374
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 2: Watt number two didn't make the playoffs. Michael Parsons number

375
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 2: three didn't make the playoffs. Injury, I realized that Match

376
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 2: Crosby number four didn't make the playoffs. Nick Bosa didn't

377
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 2: play enough to make any impact of the San Francisco

378
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 2: forty nine ers. Trey Hendrickson, now going to be a

379
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 2: free agent, didn't make the playoffs. Aiden Hutchinson for the

380
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 2: Lions didn't make the playoffs. You gotta get all the

381
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 2: way down to Will Anderson Junior for the Houston Texans,

382
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 2: who was ranked number eight coming into last year to

383
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 2: even find an edge rusher going into last season perceived

384
00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 2: to be one of the best that actually made the playoffs.

385
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 3: This is what's wild to.

386
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 2: Me because I get this concept book, but if your

387
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,679
Speaker 2: team sucks, you need great players. The problem is so

388
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 2: many great edge rushers, particularly don't actually equal win.

389
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 3: So I don't know what, dude, I'm.

390
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 2: Not gonna sit here and pretend the Raiders are better

391
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:15,920
Speaker 2: without Max Crosby. I just think, did they get a

392
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,120
Speaker 2: Max Crosby the entirety of his career and not win

393
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 2: a damn thing because one person doesn't win you football games?

394
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:23,280
Speaker 4: Well, it's j J.

395
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 5: Watt without Deshaun or after Deshaun fell off, right, that's

396
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 5: just kind of what it became, or all these different

397
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 5: you know, I mean, how many different TJ. Yates years

398
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 5: did we have, not Matt Cassel, who was the other one,

399
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 5: Matt shaub right for the Texans before. I mean, shab

400
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 5: had some good years, but then I think led the

401
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 5: set a record for like the most games with the

402
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 5: most consecutive games of the pick six or something ridiculous

403
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 5: once towards the tail end of his career. So yeah,

404
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 5: I mean it is it comes back down to a

405
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 5: team building philosophy and can one player really make a

406
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 5: difference in the NFL in the scope of things.

407
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's a player can make a difference.

408
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 5: In a specific situation, But then you have to be

409
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 5: able to capitalize on whatever it is that player did.

410
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 4: Right.

411
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 5: If Max Crosby stripsacks a quarterback, recovers a fumble, you

412
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 5: still have to be able to punch it in or

413
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 5: put yourself in field goal position to be able to

414
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:19,719
Speaker 5: capitalize on that.

415
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 4: Otherwise you know it's.

416
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 5: For not so for Max. He goes to a situation

417
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 5: where he has an offense. We'll see what happens with Lamar, right.

418
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 5: I mean, they've got some questions to answer in Baltimore

419
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 5: as far as are they going to be able to

420
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 5: get an extension done with Lamar Jackson because their cap

421
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 5: situation is not very favorable.

422
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 4: They have a lot of.

423
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 5: Different offensive line things to figure out at this point

424
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 5: in time, with their center Tyler Lindebaumer or their former

425
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 5: center set to make I don't know, only twenty two

426
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 5: million dollars on the open market this coming off season,

427
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 5: and that offensive line unit wasn't all that great to

428
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 5: begin with, so now you have to continue to try

429
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 5: and supplement that to prolong, you know, to support Lamar

430
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 5: Jackson and Derek Henry is he reaches the tail end

431
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 5: of his career.

432
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 4: I think Derek is.

433
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 5: I think Derek has two more years on an extension

434
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 5: at this point in time. But you know, at some

435
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 5: point it's going to have to be it's gonna have

436
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 5: to be a better version of what we saw last

437
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 5: year because the Ravens were not right on a number

438
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,959
Speaker 5: of fronts. Max Crosby satisfies a huge need for them.

439
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 5: As far as a top tier pass rusher. When's the

440
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 5: last time they've had a pass rusher like anywhere close

441
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,879
Speaker 5: to in the ballpark of Max Crosby, I can't. Suggs

442
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 5: was an incredible player, and I don't know if he's

443
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 5: Hall of Fame caliber or anything like that, but Terrell

444
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 5: Suggs that wasn't He's not what Max Crosby is as

445
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,439
Speaker 5: a player, Right, We're talking about very different things. They

446
00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 5: always did that in terms of how they were able

447
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 5: to platoon guys at the best versions of those Ravens defenses,

448
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,639
Speaker 5: and even then it was more about just suffocating you,

449
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 5: making you, snuffing out the run. Making the opposing offense

450
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 5: one dimensional and then you can pin your ears back

451
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 5: in pass rush as you see. But they've always done

452
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 5: it with like the Paul Kruegers of the world, and

453
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 5: pronell McFee and Courtney Upshell right, these are not like

454
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 5: top end guys that they've been able to make it work.

455
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 5: I know that those three names that I named are

456
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 5: from Raven's teams long ago, but still you understand my point.

457
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 5: So for Vegas now there becomes the question of all right,

458
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 5: you've relegated yourself to the idea that this is a

459
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 5: long term rebuild, and by long term we mean ballpark

460
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 5: three years. If John Spytech gets three years, Clint Kubiak

461
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 5: obviously will be starting after one year of John Spytech

462
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,199
Speaker 5: being on the job. The second part of this is

463
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 5: how do you support for Nando Mendoza immediately, which there's

464
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 5: another Raiders transaction that we haven't gotten to just yet.

465
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 5: FITZI and I wonder if we should save the Geno

466
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:51,119
Speaker 5: Smith talk for after the update, because I am very

467
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 5: confused by their release outright release of Geno Smith at

468
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 5: thirty four years old. Understanding Geno was not good last year,

469
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 5: but with a number one over pick coming in a

470
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 5: quarterback that you have said your intentions are not to

471
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 5: start him right away. Why the hell would you let

472
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 5: a quality backup quarterback who may not think he's a

473
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 5: backup quarterback, but at this point in his career should

474
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 5: probably be thinking that way.

475
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 4: Why the hell would you let Gino Smith go.

476
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 3: I have an answer for you.

477
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 2: We'll let Martin catch you up on the scoreboard first,

478
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 2: and then we'll figure out what exactly they're doing at

479
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 2: that quarterback position and if Gino has any value, what's

480
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:25,120
Speaker 2: going on on the score.

481
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 6: So in the NBA, four minutes left in the first quarter,

482
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 6: the Pistons lead the Nets twenty three to seventeen. Four

483
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,880
Speaker 6: minutes left the first quarter for the seventy six ers

484
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 6: and Hawks Philadelphia up twenty four to twenty Tyrese Maxi

485
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 6: with ten early points. We saw the Magic beat the

486
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 6: Timberwolves earlier today one nineteen to ninety two, Palo Bancaro

487
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 6: with a twenty five point fifteen rebound double double, Anthony

488
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 6: Average with thirty four points, and men's Kyleo's basketball with

489
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 6: twenty seconds left in the game, Florida by the five

490
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 6: point lead over Kentucky eighty two to seventy seven, fifth

491
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,640
Speaker 6: ranked Gators in the lead, trying to close them out

492
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 6: with Kentucky in the second half, so I scored them

493
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 6: by forty five to thirty three.

494
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 4: We have one big.

495
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 6: Upset today with Amarquette upsetting fourth ranked Yukon sixty eight

496
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 6: to sixty two.

497
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 3: Dan Hurley getting ejected.

498
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 6: In the final second of the game after bumping into

499
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 6: a referee. In the NFL, the Packers have traded defensive

500
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 6: tackle Colby Wooden to the Colts for Zaire Franklin, the

501
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 6: linebacker who led the NFL in tackles.

502
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 4: In twenty twenty four.

503
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 6: The forty nine Ers and kickie kicker Eddie Pinero have

504
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 6: agreed to a four year deal. Connor McGovern and the

505
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 6: Bills have agreed to a four year, fifty two million

506
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 6: dollar contract thirty two over that guaranteed. The Brandon Aubrey

507
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 6: and the Cowboys not able to come to an agreement

508
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:42,640
Speaker 6: on the long term deal.

509
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,159
Speaker 4: So that's a free agent tender.

510
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 6: The team's gonna slap on the kicker for the twenty

511
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 6: twenty sixth league year.

512
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 4: It's five point seven million one.

513
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 6: If they have teams have an opportunity to offer him

514
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 6: a contract Cowboys can match it. If they don't, they'll

515
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 6: get a second round pick. And Rams cornerback Darius Williams

516
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 6: has retired after eight NFL seasons.

517
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 4: Fellas back to you.

518
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 3: He's Buck Rising, I'm Jason Fitz Buck and Fitz hanging

519
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,399
Speaker 3: out with the on Fox Sports Radio The Big News.

520
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 3: Obviously they came in last night, Max Crossby being traded

521
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 3: and Buck, you just raised a question about what all

522
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 3: that means, because we understand that the Raiders at this

523
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 3: point are in a complete rebuild. They now get two

524
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 3: first round picks this year that they have Theirs plus Baltimore's.

525
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 2: Baltimore's was fourteenth. They also will own two first round

526
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 2: picks in next year's draft, Theirs and whatever Baltimore ends

527
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 2: up having, which, if you're the Ravens, you believe is

528
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 2: now going to be a very low pick in the

529
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 2: first round because you believe Max is gonna make you

530
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 2: a super Bowl caliber defense. Understanding that you raised this

531
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 2: a good question here where Gino Smith is going to

532
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 2: be released by the team, and the question is why,

533
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 2: because Spytech has said that he doesn't believe a quarterbacks

534
00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,360
Speaker 2: should have to play right away. I don't think that

535
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 2: that's wrong. I just think two things here. One klik

536
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 2: Kobiac remember was the offensive coordinator that came into Seattle

537
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 2: last year and looked around and said.

538
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 3: Nope, we'd rather have Sam Darnold.

539
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 2: So now he comes over to this offense and says, nope,

540
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 2: have insert name of quarterback here. The other part of

541
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 2: it is, I think the team understands Number one, they're

542
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 2: not going to be particularly good, so they're not worried

543
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 2: about a quarterback. They can win them games. They're worried

544
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 2: about quarterback, they can be mentoring. I think what we're

545
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 2: gonna see because the Raiders have a ton of cap

546
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 2: space and interesting to the minutia that people don't care about.

547
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 2: The Raiders have a ton of obligation to spend money

548
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 2: to hit the salary cap floor, which has factored out

549
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 2: every three years, so this minutia. But they are going

550
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 2: to have to spend money. So now they're letting Gino walk.

551
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:31,679
Speaker 2: What are they going to spend money on. It's not

552
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 2: going to be a quarterback.

553
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 3: I think they're going to spend a ton of money

554
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 3: on offensive linemen that are twenty six, twenty seven and younger.

555
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,959
Speaker 3: So young offensive linemen, they believe that they can get

556
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 3: They're gonna get them all for three year contracts. They're

557
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 3: going to frontload those contracts, and then they're comfortable letting

558
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 3: Geno go and bringing in Kirk if they can get

559
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 3: Kirk or really anybody like I think the Raiders are

560
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 3: telling you, we don't care if we start a backup

561
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,880
Speaker 3: for half the season. We're not gonna win games anyway.

562
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 2: We just want to get the offensive line better for

563
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 2: Ashton Genty and for Fernando whenever he's ready to actually

564
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 2: get in the game.

565
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,199
Speaker 5: Well, it's not like Gino was winning you games. I

566
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 5: just why, So, why is Geno Smith not mentor type?

567
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,639
Speaker 5: Like everything that I've heard, I mean, since you know

568
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 5: that one practice squad linebacker broke his jaw with the

569
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 5: Jets because Geno owed him money or something like that

570
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 5: one hundred years ago. Everything that we've heard and seen,

571
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 5: And I would defer to you again because you pay

572
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 5: far closer attention to the Las Vegas Raiders than your

573
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 5: average person is a fan of the team. Since when

574
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 5: is Geno Smith not good mentor guy? Also, since when

575
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 5: is Geno Smith good enough to win you football games?

576
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 5: Given what the Raiders are doing right, now with the

577
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,160
Speaker 5: number one overall pick, Like, I don't think that Geno

578
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 5: all of a sudden, at thirty four years old, is

579
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 5: going to turn it back on like we've already written

580
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 5: him off for once, right and with the whole you

581
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 5: know they wrote me off, I didn't write back type deal.

582
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 5: I'm not thinking. I just don't understand if if you

583
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 5: have somebody who can serve in that role, Like, isn't

584
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 5: it the job of the coach and the coach can

585
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 5: do what he wants here? Right, They're not under on

586
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 5: any obligation to keep Geno Smith, But it just seems

587
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 5: like change for the sake of change, because Clint Kubiak

588
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 5: doesn't think that Gino Smith.

589
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 4: Works for his system or whatever. I don't know.

590
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 5: That's not a good excuse to me to get rid

591
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 5: of a quality backup quarterback. Well, I think it's figure

592
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 5: it out. You're the offensive genius, Fay, you figure it out.

593
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 3: Well.

594
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 2: Number one, you want to be running the same offense

595
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 2: for Fernando, and you're one that you'll be running for

596
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 2: Fernando in year two, so you don't want to have

597
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 2: to make a ton of adjustments to that. But number two,

598
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 2: I'm not sure Gino really wants to be somewhere where

599
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 2: he's about to be dead man walking. He still believes

600
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 2: he can be a high quality starting quarterback. He believes

601
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 2: he's going to go somewhere and get a three year deal. Right,

602
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,160
Speaker 2: So I'm not sure Gino wants to be around all

603
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 2: of that. And if he doesn't want to be around all.

604
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 5: Which is fine, by the way, Yeah, if it's if

605
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,479
Speaker 5: it's what makes sense for both sides, then I'm you know,

606
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 5: I'm making much ado about nothing. But if like Gino

607
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 5: wanted to stay there for the opportunity to compete, let

608
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 5: Geno Smith stay there.

609
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, And there was a at least enough of a

610
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 2: rub between the fans and Gino that I don't know

611
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 2: that like you never listen to the fans. Take it that,

612
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 2: But anytime you're starting quarterbacks out here flipping off the

613
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,120
Speaker 2: fans at a home game, that's just a tough look

614
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 2: to bring back. Sometimes for a player that's about to

615
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 2: just hit, you know they're going to hit a wall

616
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,360
Speaker 2: of not being particularly good. And I think you're Titans Camp,

617
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 2: by the way, And for anyone that doesn't know Buck

618
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 2: covers the Titans in Nashville, I think the Titans.

619
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 3: Are a real reminder.

620
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 2: I mean, for as many times as we say this,

621
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 2: I'll continue to echo it. Look at the teams that

622
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,199
Speaker 2: are consistently bad, consistently bad. So we're talking about the Raiders,

623
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 2: the Titans, the Jets, the Browns, like teams that never

624
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,679
Speaker 2: win football games, over and over and over again. I

625
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 2: think at some point you look at it and you say, man,

626
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 2: what's the one thing that turns all that around? And

627
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,880
Speaker 2: the real answer, for most teams, the thing that seems

628
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 2: to turn you around the fastest is getting it right

629
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 2: at the quarterback and head coach.

630
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 3: Combo, I don't think it's one or the other. I

631
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 3: think it's both.

632
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,199
Speaker 2: I think you gotta have the right quarterback that speaks

633
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 2: the right language, for the right coach that speaks the

634
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 2: right language, and they got to have this like eighties

635
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 2: wrestling tag team duo, this sinner that works together. So

636
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 2: if you're the Raiders, part of what you're looking at

637
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 2: now is we're putting everybody on the same clock. Like

638
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 2: you mentioned, it's year two for Spy Tech in Vegas,

639
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 2: which is fair, but it's year one for Kubiak and Fernando,

640
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 2: which we believe is how it's going to go at

641
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:15,960
Speaker 2: the beginning of the draft, so it's really going to

642
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 2: be and this is year one of spy tech having control,

643
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 2: because most people will tell you Pete.

644
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 3: Carroll had a lot of control last year.

645
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,120
Speaker 2: So I think what you're seeing is a year one

646
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 2: movement to hear towards we don't care what the past

647
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 2: has been, we don't care about any of the things

648
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 2: that have lingered over this organization.

649
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 3: We're going to start fresh. I think moving Max even

650
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 3: is part of that.

651
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 2: It's just a part of cleaning house to get some

652
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 2: sort of freshness in the entire building. Now, that to

653
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 2: me is part of why I keep stressing I think

654
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 2: this is a multi year like.

655
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 3: Look.

656
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 2: The Patriots, I think are the outlier. The Patriots going

657
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 2: out spending a ton of money, having it work, playing

658
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 2: a really easy schedule with the coach that was managed.

659
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 2: They managed to come in and really get the pulse

660
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 2: of this thing right away with no learning curve and

661
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 2: an offensive coordinator that's not hirable.

662
00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 3: Anywhere else as a head coach. And now goes back

663
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 3: to what he did brilliantly.

664
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 2: Like that's all stuff that had to go on the

665
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 2: pot at once and come out perfectly I think most teams,

666
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 2: it just doesn't work that easily.

667
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 3: Even Washington.

668
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 2: Washington had a one year turn right where they became

669
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 2: huge and then all of a sudden they sucked again.

670
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 2: Sustainable greatness, I think for most of these bad teams,

671
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 2: when you've had, like the Raiders have had fifteen starting

672
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 2: quarterbacks in the last whatever ten years, I think it

673
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 2: just is going to take a full reset, repush on everything.

674
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,680
Speaker 2: So there is just an element of get everybody out

675
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 2: the door that you think in any way, shape or

676
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 2: form isn't part of your future, and just start building

677
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 2: for three years from now.

678
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 5: No, I just watched the team that I covered do

679
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 5: the exact same thing. I mean, you know, save Jeffrey

680
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 5: Simmons basically, and that's because jeff is, I don't know,

681
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 5: twenty eight and coming off a year where he's the

682
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 5: best defensive tackle in football, And if you were to

683
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 5: trade jeff for draft picks, then you would have to

684
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,200
Speaker 5: figure out how to replace.

685
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 4: Maybe you your first round pick that you get back

686
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 4: for Jeffrey.

687
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 5: Could eventually become two thirds of the player that Jeffrey

688
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 5: Simmons is. Right now, I'm not saying that Max Crosby

689
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 5: isn't the same caliber of player. But I do think

690
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 5: that there's at least some logic to try and to

691
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 5: cash in on it. If somebody offered the Titans two

692
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 5: first round picks for Jeff, I have to imagine that

693
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 5: they would have at least had to think about it

694
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 5: a little harder. No matter how much the player continues

695
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 5: to bang the drum on, No, I want to be here.

696
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 4: I want to be here for the turnaround.

697
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 5: I want to help build this place back up after

698
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 5: I've you know, I was good, and they were good

699
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 5: for a period of time and then they've fallen on

700
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 5: hard times basically for the last four seasons. There is

701
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 5: some level of how difficult is each individual player that

702
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 5: we're talking about here to replace where there's just on

703
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 5: a roster with not that many good football players, whether

704
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 5: you're talking about the Raiders of the Titans or any

705
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 5: of these teams who are in this situation.

706
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 3: And that's why, like the honest rebuild answer for most

707
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 3: teams is just you got to hit it right in

708
00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 3: the draft over and over, Like when's the last time

709
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 3: you saw the Titans and you finished the draft coverage

710
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 3: that we all have to do right, You finished the

711
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 3: draft coverage and you said, my god, what a home

712
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 3: run draft for the.

713
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 5: Titans twenty nineteen. Okay, and Jeffers Simmons, AJ Brown. They

714
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 5: drafted a guard that ended up starting for them in

715
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 5: the third round of money Hooker's starting safety still here.

716
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 5: Like they hit on every pick but one. He was

717
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 5: a pass rusher out of Georgia and I can't remember

718
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 5: his name.

719
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 3: Right when it's been that many years now, we have

720
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 3: such a like that's the realist indicator of why the

721
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 3: Titans suck, if you just start stacking, like, look, the

722
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 3: Browns last year had an epic draft. The Browns had

723
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 3: a Hall of It. This's what I constantly tell people.

724
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 3: A former GM told me years.

725
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 2: Ago that a home run Hall of Fame caliber draft

726
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 2: is getting five or six quality news starters on your team.

727
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 2: Five or six that's a oh my god offseason, as

728
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 2: off season a whole, not a draft and an off season.

729
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 2: So between the free agency and the draft, five or

730
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 2: six high quality starters is a Hall of Fame offseason.

731
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 2: Now ask yourself, like, look at your favorite team and

732
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 2: ask yourself, how many players starting from my favorite team

733
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 2: would actually start on a playoff team.

734
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 3: I do this exercise all the time. If you look

735
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 3: at the Raiders as a Raiders fan, if I had

736
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 3: to ask myself how many of these players would actually.

737
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 2: Start on an elite football team, the answer to that

738
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 2: now is maybe Ashton gent Brock, Powers, maybe Colton Miller

739
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 2: maybe so like three, three at the most. So that

740
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 2: means my favorite team needs nineteen new starters. If six

741
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 2: new starters is a Hall of Fame level offseason, that

742
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 2: tells you that my front office of my favorite team

743
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 2: would have to put together three straight Hall of Fame

744
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 2: level off seasons just to make my team competitive.

745
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 3: That's why most teams that suck continually suck, because it's

746
00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 3: just a long process of getting everything right over and

747
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 3: over and over again, and nobody can no It's.

748
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 4: It's completely fair. I think. I think that you have

749
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 4: the right mindset.

750
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 5: You have come you have come to terms with the

751
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 5: situation that your favorite football team is getting ready to

752
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 5: put you through yet again. I just hated for Raiders

753
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 5: fans because it feels like they are doing this, you know,

754
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 5: with regular ready basically the last two decades.

755
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 2: This is the bad teams in the NFL do this

756
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,960
Speaker 2: all the time, all right, from the from the from

757
00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 2: the drama on the field, do the drama off the field.

758
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 2: Somebody got hacked and Instagram may never be the same.

759
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 3: Because of it. We'll tell you about it next. He's

760
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 3: Buck Rising. I'm Jason Fitz, Bucking Fits on Fox Sports Radio.

761
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

762
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 2: Bucking Fits hanging out with you on Fox Sports Radio.

763
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 2: He's Buck Rising. I'm Jason Fitz. We'll get you updated

764
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 2: on some big college basketball going down in just a

765
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,959
Speaker 2: few minutes. But, uh, we got hacking? Do we we

766
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 2: have hacking? Maybe we have some interesting social media going on, Buck.

767
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 2: And this one comes in the form of, like, let

768
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 2: us all be this lucky. Let us all be so

769
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 2: lucky in our lives that if we're ever unlucky enough

770
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 2: to get hacked, that when we get hacked, it's absolutely

771
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 2: going to be the best, nicest, most glowing moment you've

772
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:14,760
Speaker 2: ever seen. Because Rashaun Kerry NFL player went to social media,

773
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,800
Speaker 2: at least it appeared on Instagram for a very thoughtful

774
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:19,800
Speaker 2: What appeared on Instagram, Like I had a picture of

775
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,760
Speaker 2: him as a player and his goodbye statement to the Packers,

776
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 2: like it was a beautifully written I'm out, thank you

777
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 2: for my time statement that went to Instagram and then

778
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 2: was deleted shortly after, only to then have Rashan turn

779
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 2: around and tell.

780
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 3: Everybody he was hacked.

781
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 2: Like buck I cannot imagine that I finally get the

782
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 2: pass code to hock it and to hack it to

783
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 2: Buck Rising's Instagram account, and what I do is I

784
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 2: go to it and I don't, like, I don't slide

785
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 2: into anybody's DMS.

786
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 3: I don't go out there.

787
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 2: I don't, you know, photoshop you in a robe and

788
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 2: put it out there for the world to see.

789
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 4: No, insteadir e fact.

790
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 2: Instead no, I write a heartfelt thank you and put

791
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 2: up a glowing picture of you, like what a.

792
00:34:59,640 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 4: Way to be.

793
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 5: Well the last I mean, there have obviously been situations

794
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 5: where an athlete or somebody of some level of import

795
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,720
Speaker 5: has said they've been hacked when something on their social

796
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 5: media has gone awry. But the last one that I remember,

797
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,280
Speaker 5: like at least in the world of the NFL, of note,

798
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 5: was Laramie Tunsel. You remember how crazy that was on

799
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 5: Draft night where somebody posted a picture of him in

800
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 5: that weed gas mask on Draft night and then, if

801
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:37,439
Speaker 5: I'm not mistaken, also posted text conversations between I want

802
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 5: to say it was his father in Hugh Freeze about

803
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 5: you know, some at the time before name, image and

804
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 5: likeness was put into place, some improper benefits type of

805
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 5: situation like actively trying to undermine this person, and that

806
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 5: you know that was of a very nefarious nature and

807
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 5: did cause him to drop on draft night. But Rashan

808
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 5: Gary's situation, there was some reason to believe that the

809
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,879
Speaker 5: Packers could do it because if my math is right,

810
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 5: they could save eleven million dollars if they were to

811
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 5: move on from Rashaun Gary.

812
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:11,879
Speaker 4: And he's twenty eight years old.

813
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,320
Speaker 5: He's been the subject of trade talks for a while

814
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 5: according to a lot of the league insiders, and there

815
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 5: would be a sizable amount of dead money if they

816
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 5: were to move him at this point in time. But like,

817
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 5: this is a good player. Was I think a lot

818
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 5: of people were surprised to see the news. In fact,

819
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 5: we were talking about it on the local show and

820
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 5: again to remind people that I covered the Tennessee Titans

821
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 5: who were in need of a pass rusher this offseason,

822
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 5: I said, he immediately jumps to the top of my

823
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 5: list in terms of free agent players that I would want.

824
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 5: And how much better does the free agency pool look

825
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 5: after some of these cap casualties than it did after

826
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 5: we got through the first round of franchise tag stuff

827
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 5: and things of that nature. Right that it raised the

828
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 5: profile of the players that were going to be available immediately,

829
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 5: and I thought that Rashan Gary should.

830
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 4: Be at the top of many teams lists.

831
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:04,360
Speaker 5: And then for that it was leaked or not leaked,

832
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 5: but given to a lot of different people, both Green

833
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 5: Bay media and national insiders that his instagram was hacked.

834
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 5: But like, who is going to take the time to

835
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 5: come up with a thoughtful goodbye post from Rashan Gary

836
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 5: on his own Instagram? That's what I'm saying. Like it was,

837
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 5: there was nothing inflammatory about it. There was nothing you know,

838
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 5: that would do something to to troll or cause harm

839
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,840
Speaker 5: to the reputation or the image of Rashon Gary.

840
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 4: No, it's just a it's a good bipost. So he

841
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 4: had one. I don't we we don't have like a sound.

842
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 5: Or imaging to connote reckless speculation on my part, But

843
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 5: let me just say that I'm going to recklessly speculate

844
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 5: and say that he fired off a post that he

845
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 5: then was informed No, this is not the direction that

846
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,359
Speaker 5: we're heading with you bud, you may want to take

847
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 5: that down.

848
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 4: And then instead of saying yeah, my bad, my bad, guys,

849
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 4: that one's on.

850
00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,799
Speaker 5: Me, little little little trigger happy there, he decided to

851
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 5: go with the narrative that even if you did get hacked,

852
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,439
Speaker 5: nobody's gonna believe you, right, Like, we've had too many

853
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,800
Speaker 5: people cry wolf on the hacked thing at this point

854
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 5: to actually buy off on somebody getting hacked.

855
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 2: Like, if somebody's gonna get hacked, I would think it

856
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 2: would look a lot more like Ryan Rossilo's Instagram looked

857
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,759
Speaker 2: a few weeks ago. Then it would with Rashan coming

858
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 2: into it, like and and I don't even know if

859
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 2: Racillo got hacked, Like I think when I think, when

860
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 2: I think hacked, I think something just eye opening where

861
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 2: you look at it, You're like, IM, that's I'm just saying,

862
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,720
Speaker 2: like a thoughtful, well worded thank you to the city

863
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,800
Speaker 2: that drafted you with an on to my next adventure

864
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 2: sort of thing. To me, I immediately read as the

865
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 2: team told his agent, Hey, if we can't get this reworked,

866
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 2: if we can't figure out some money stuff, we're gonna

867
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 2: cut you or we're gonna trade you. And then he

868
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:55,440
Speaker 2: puts that out and all of a sudden, then the

869
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 2: phone start ringing. They're like, well, wait a minute, don't

870
00:38:57,960 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 2: don't cut him.

871
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 3: We can give you some trade value, like if he

872
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 3: gets traded over the course of the next several days.

873
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 3: It still screams to me that he was telling us

874
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 3: all what the plan was before the plan was.

875
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,320
Speaker 2: Actually the plan, right, Like it's just what a dreamy

876
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,839
Speaker 2: situation to be in Buck, where it's like, oh, I.

877
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 3: Got hacked, but you know what, it's okay.

878
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 2: I got hacked by somebody that wanted to make sure

879
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 2: I look like just a great overall dude.

880
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,440
Speaker 3: Like I love the idea of Buck going into my

881
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 3: Instagram to hack it and then be like, you know

882
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 3: what I want to do.

883
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 2: I want to make sure he looks like he's an

884
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:30,840
Speaker 2: awesome guy that has his stuff together all the right things.

885
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 2: That's never never ever gonna happen.

886
00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 5: Uh.

887
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 2: All right, it's a big day in college basketball for

888
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 2: two teams, and one coach will tell you about it.

889
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 3: Next. Buck Rising Jason fitzbucking Fits on Fox Sports Radio.

890
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

891
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,839
Speaker 2: Usually when we're sitting on our day like today where

892
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 2: you have Duke North Carolina it's all anybody's thinking about.

893
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 3: It's all anybody's talking about. You spend a.

894
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 2: Week hearing about the matchup, you spend a week hearing

895
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 2: about rivalry, reminded that it's the greatest rivalry in college

896
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 2: basketball and one of the greatest rivalries in sports.

897
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 3: And now, even as we sit here with the.

898
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 2: Game going on, Duke ranked number one North Carolina, a

899
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 2: top twenty team trying to sweep the Blue Devils, it

900
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 2: just feels like some of the magic maybe isn't there.

901
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,840
Speaker 2: Bucking Fitz, Buck Rising, Jason fitz hanging out with you

902
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio.

903
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 3: And Buck, I don't know what it is because you

904
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:27,759
Speaker 3: and I talk a lot about the fact that we

905
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 3: love college basketball.

906
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 2: This has been a big Saturday. We'll get to Hurley

907
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 2: in just a second. This has been a big Saturday

908
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 2: for college basketball in general, and seeding is just going

909
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 2: to be wild. There is actually something on the line

910
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 2: in this Duke North Carolina game above beyond just the

911
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,439
Speaker 2: bragging rights of Duke North North Carolina. Duke is trying

912
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,040
Speaker 2: to secure the number one overall seed in a year

913
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 2: the tournament that looks wild. They're the number one team

914
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 2: in the land and it's a weirdly quiet number one

915
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 2: for Duke, and they're taking on a North Carolina team

916
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,400
Speaker 2: that certainly wants to try and play their way up

917
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:01,959
Speaker 2: into the three seed four seed range and not find

918
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 2: themselves in the five seed range.

919
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 3: So, like there's a lot on the line.

920
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 2: For this and I just don't feel like it has

921
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,280
Speaker 2: the same level of sizzle if I lost my mind.

922
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:12,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.

923
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 5: I mean, if you talk to anybody who's following college

924
00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 5: basketball even since the NFL season ended, right, Duke North

925
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,720
Speaker 5: Carolina is always going to have some level of hatred.

926
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 5: And maybe it's just because there are a lot of

927
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 5: Duke and North Carolina basketball fans just in the general populace,

928
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:37,360
Speaker 5: whether they're from or went to either of these institutions, Like,

929
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,799
Speaker 5: there are enough people that have a rooting interest in

930
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 5: this game. Whether you consider that to be you know,

931
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 5: real fandom or not. You know, that's a different conversation

932
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:45,239
Speaker 5: for another day.

933
00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,960
Speaker 4: I feel like in my part of the world, here.

934
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:51,080
Speaker 5: In the Southeast, I feel like there's been plenty of dialogue,

935
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 5: plenty of interest about this game, especially to see how

936
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 5: North Carolina continues to try and do this without Caleb Wilson.

937
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 5: So to prior to today's game. Tonight's game, he had

938
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 5: missed the previous six. He's now been ruled out for

939
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 5: the season. Their star freshman, he's going to have surgery

940
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,760
Speaker 5: on Or has already had the surgery on a broken

941
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 5: right thumb that he has sustained during a practice. So

942
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 5: they have been without him since February tenth. They are

943
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 5: going to try and put up a fight at Cameron Indoor.

944
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 5: Are putting up a fight against Duke at Cameron Indoor. Duke,

945
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 5: I mean, you can't beat Michigan the way that they

946
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,239
Speaker 5: did on a neutral court in Washington a couple of

947
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 5: weekends ago and be a quiet.

948
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 4: One seed fits. I'm just going to disagree with you there.

949
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 3: It's maybe it's just because not one.

950
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,560
Speaker 4: Seed but number one overall team.

951
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,720
Speaker 2: Maybe it's because I'm so used to just the vitual

952
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 2: that comes to Duke and between the players. Understanding the

953
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 2: players don't play for four years anymore, so the ability

954
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 2: to fall in hate instead of fall in love with

955
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,800
Speaker 2: guys like Christian Laitner or JJ Reddick seems it seems

956
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 2: a little different right now. I think maybe it's just

957
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 2: because I'm used to people having such fiery opinion about

958
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:02,799
Speaker 2: duke one way or the other. And this duke team

959
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 2: is I think you and I have discussed a little bit,

960
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 2: is almost likable. Like John Shire's ability to just step

961
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 2: in and take over for Coach K has taken some

962
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 2: of the edge of hatred, it feels like for some

963
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 2: people off And maybe that's in fairness because I'm living,

964
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 2: you know, twenty minutes from Yukon, which has become the

965
00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:21,279
Speaker 2: new villain in college basketball, and Danny Hurley certainly didn't

966
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 2: do anything to help himself in that conversation today. So

967
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,840
Speaker 2: maybe because I feel the sort of way that Hurley

968
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,840
Speaker 2: is perceived in Yukon is perceived, maybe it feels like I'm.

969
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 3: In that bubble.

970
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 2: I just feel like usually when we start talking about

971
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,760
Speaker 2: duke number one duke, there is just such a loud

972
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 2: conversation about it, and you know, I don't know if

973
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,319
Speaker 2: it's a sports calendar. I don't know if it's if

974
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,879
Speaker 2: it's all these things combined. Maybe it's just maybe I'm

975
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,320
Speaker 2: just lost on it. I just feel like a Coach

976
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 2: K team that had your usual duke villains, that was

977
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 2: number one in the land taking on Yukon would have

978
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 2: been just this explosive. It'd be this explosive thing that

979
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:59,479
Speaker 2: we're talking about going into the tournament. And certainly even

980
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,520
Speaker 2: when took down Michigan whatever that was last week, watching

981
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 2: that game, it felt like most people believed Michigan would

982
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 2: win that game. There wasn't this big like Duke moment,

983
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:10,560
Speaker 2: even for them ascending to number one.

984
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,919
Speaker 3: There wasn't a man, we all got it wrong with Duke.

985
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 2: Like, it just feels like Duke is just a normal

986
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,799
Speaker 2: basketball team this year, which is fine for any of

987
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 2: the brand.

988
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 3: This is not what I'm used to for Duke.

989
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you and I touched on this on Monday.

990
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 5: For people who didn't hear it on two Pros and

991
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 5: a Cupature when Fitzy and I were filling in, well,

992
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 5: I guess that was just yesterday morning, and then we'll

993
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 5: be back on on Monday morning for those of you

994
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 5: who want to hang out with us again for a

995
00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,919
Speaker 5: couple hours in the morning and you drive. I think

996
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 5: that in the absence like not every Duke team has

997
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 5: had a villain player, right, so when they did not

998
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,520
Speaker 5: have villain players, who was the villain? Ssski? Well, there's

999
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,760
Speaker 5: plenty of people who don't like Czski. No matter, especially

1000
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 5: when you when you win at the rate that Duke

1001
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,960
Speaker 5: and Coach K did. When you have the level of success,

1002
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 5: it's hard for you to be viewed favorably. And then

1003
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 5: you know, Coach K has some personality stuff that rubs

1004
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 5: people the wrong way in certain moments, especially North Carolina fans.

1005
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,839
Speaker 5: Shire hasn't really had that. I think there was among them.

1006
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 5: There was a disgruntled North Carolina fan in our building

1007
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 5: on Friday that brought up to me the different ways

1008
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 5: that he has found to hate John Shire, which I

1009
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,959
Speaker 5: think to be you know, kind of difficult and trying

1010
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 5: to manifest things. I guess there was a court storming situation.

1011
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 5: There was a court storming situation.

1012
00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 3: In North Carolina. His coach got punched, right.

1013
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, and people are looking for you know, there's

1014
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 5: cameras everywhere, right, there's phones everywhere, phones with high quality

1015
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,080
Speaker 5: cameras and things like that. Nobody can find evidence, apparently,

1016
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,840
Speaker 5: according to the North the disgruntled North Carolina fan of

1017
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 5: this thing actually happening. So it's just he's just sitting there,

1018
00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 5: you know, huffing and puffing on. John Shire's just making

1019
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:46,719
Speaker 5: us up this cent and again it's like, okay, now

1020
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,320
Speaker 5: you guys are just looking for things to try and

1021
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 5: hate this, and I'm fine with it because I think

1022
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:55,280
Speaker 5: hate is good in sports. I love when there is hatred,

1023
00:45:55,360 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 5: legitimate hatred and rivalries. Obviously not advocating for like or

1024
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 5: that kind of that kind of stuff, but you know,

1025
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 5: I hate Perdue, I hate Kentucky. Those are Indiana basketballs,

1026
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 5: I mean, theoretically greatest rivals, but Indiana basketball hasn't been

1027
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,719
Speaker 5: good enough to have rivalries against either of those programs

1028
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 5: in the last couple of years. So you know, you

1029
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,160
Speaker 5: get to a certain point with those kind of teams

1030
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 5: where those rivalries lose juice if one side of the

1031
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,960
Speaker 5: rivalry isn't doing their job. But in this particular case,

1032
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:27,839
Speaker 5: if Duke wins the national championship next year and John

1033
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,640
Speaker 5: Shire and all these different players that you're talking about,

1034
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:34,240
Speaker 5: Boozer and people that you know, people that are looked

1035
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 5: at differently than previous years in the history of this program,

1036
00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:40,280
Speaker 5: if they win the national championship, people will be gunning

1037
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:42,720
Speaker 5: for People will find ways to hate them. John Shiro

1038
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:45,800
Speaker 5: will continue to be covered heavily. Not like there's a

1039
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:48,719
Speaker 5: lack of media coverage for Duke basketball at any point

1040
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,400
Speaker 5: and no matter who the coaches. But yeah, I mean,

1041
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 5: if they're in the spotlight long enough, people will start

1042
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 5: to hate them. They just haven't really been in the

1043
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 5: spotlight like that just yet. This is their moment. Now

1044
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 5: we all just sit around and wait for their villain

1045
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:01,799
Speaker 5: turn at some point.

1046
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you're right about that, that every moment

1047
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,200
Speaker 2: of greatness is met with the villain turn, which Yukon

1048
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 2: has felt.

1049
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,200
Speaker 3: We mentioned Dan Hurley. He was ejected with less.

1050
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,839
Speaker 2: Than a second left. They then put a second back

1051
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 2: on the clock in a loss. Huskies lose sixty eight

1052
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 2: sixty two to Marquette. Now a little context here. It

1053
00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 2: was a one bucket game. It was right down to

1054
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 2: the wire. There was an opportunity for Yukon to tie it.

1055
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,040
Speaker 3: There was a drive to the lane. No foul was called,

1056
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:35,600
Speaker 3: and Hurley hated it. Hurley absolutely, he believed that Silas

1057
00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:39,279
Speaker 3: Tamari was fouled. He hated it, and he got right

1058
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 3: in the official's face. And at least it looked like

1059
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,360
Speaker 3: on the review that he bumped into the official.

1060
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 2: He says he never bumped into him. The replay seemed

1061
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,880
Speaker 2: to be a little bit questionable. It looks like he

1062
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 2: bumped into him from some of the screenshots. Hurley, of course,

1063
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,880
Speaker 2: responding to that, said quote, you could screenshot whatever you

1064
00:47:57,920 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 2: want a screenshot.

1065
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:00,680
Speaker 3: I don't feel like I made any con with John.

1066
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 3: I don't believe I did. This is the usual, Like

1067
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:05,359
Speaker 3: I mean, you will talk about heros in villains. There's

1068
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 3: no doubt that Hurley obviously loves being the villain for Yukon.

1069
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 3: It's exhausting. It just wears me out. I'm so tired

1070
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 3: of it. It didn't help his team.

1071
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 2: A technical was called on him in that process that

1072
00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 2: obviously they were going to lose the game either way.

1073
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,880
Speaker 2: But I love that even in that moment afterwards, there

1074
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:22,800
Speaker 2: wasn't I need to be better, I need to control

1075
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:23,879
Speaker 2: my temper better.

1076
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 4: No.

1077
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 3: His first thing to say is, you can screenshot whatever

1078
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 3: you wants screenshot. I don't make any contact with John.

1079
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 3: Like he's just curly being the petulant child that he is.

1080
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:38,520
Speaker 4: I enjoy it, I really do.

1081
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 5: Like. I love the way that he goes at refs.

1082
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:42,759
Speaker 5: I love the way that he you know, I enjoy

1083
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 5: the sideline antics. Now if he was doing it in

1084
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,760
Speaker 5: a game against the team that I root for, maybe

1085
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,399
Speaker 5: I would feel a little less and obviously if he's

1086
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 5: doing it's it's far easier to look at him and

1087
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:56,760
Speaker 5: say petulant child when he's losing as a higher seed

1088
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:59,120
Speaker 5: where Marquette upsets them as the number four seed in

1089
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,399
Speaker 5: the Big East regular season.

1090
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 4: Finale, So uh they are?

1091
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,320
Speaker 5: I keep saying seed ranked team number four ranked, Yukon.

1092
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 5: Not a great way to end the season heading into

1093
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 5: conference tournament play, which is gonna be a lot of

1094
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,400
Speaker 5: fun in a couple of different conferences. I don't know

1095
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 5: what it's gonna look like down here in Nashville for

1096
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 5: the SEC tournament. I'm gonna be doing my show locally

1097
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 5: here from that all through I guess Wednesday through Friday,

1098
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 5: in the middle of free agency. It's going to be

1099
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 5: a bit chaotic. But I don't know. I mean, Hurley,

1100
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:32,120
Speaker 5: do you do you want him to be?

1101
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 4: Do we want people to be conciliatory? Conciliatory? Like?

1102
00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 5: What do you as a fan gain from seeing a

1103
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 5: humbled and you know, hat in hand if he wore

1104
00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:47,439
Speaker 5: hats Danny Hurley, Like, I don't. I don't think that

1105
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:50,239
Speaker 5: that's that's who you want that guy to be?

1106
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 4: Right?

1107
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:53,319
Speaker 5: There have to be villains in sports, don't There for

1108
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 5: the for for there to be the kind of emotion

1109
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:58,800
Speaker 5: that's required. It can't all be happy, feel good, sportsmanship,

1110
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,080
Speaker 5: all these different things. And I'm not saying the lack

1111
00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:02,960
Speaker 5: sportsmanship or anything like that. I don't think this is

1112
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 5: a moment that lacks sportsmanship. I think he probably I mean,

1113
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 5: in an honest moment. If if after he cools down

1114
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,279
Speaker 5: a little bit, does he think, you know, differently of

1115
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 5: the situation after the factor, Maybe somebody shows him something

1116
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 5: that it's a different angle than what he thinks in

1117
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 5: real time, and maybe he changes his tune the next

1118
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 5: time he's in front.

1119
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,759
Speaker 4: Of the media. I don't know. Maybe he doesn't. I don't.

1120
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 5: I don't really want him humble. I don't want to

1121
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:29,400
Speaker 5: humble Danny Hurley like that. That sucks. I want him loud,

1122
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:31,880
Speaker 5: I want him petulant. I want him screaming at people.

1123
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:35,800
Speaker 5: I want somebody in sports that gives it a little

1124
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 5: extra juice. And he does that. He fills that role.

1125
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 5: He plays that role as well as anybody on any

1126
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 5: sideline in America, regardless of sports.

1127
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Fine, but then don't act like you

1128
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,719
Speaker 3: are just the victim. This man acts like he is

1129
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 3: the one.

1130
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:55,279
Speaker 5: He is in the middle of it, in the heat

1131
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:58,319
Speaker 5: of the moment, though, like when all of these things happen,

1132
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 5: I hate postgame immediate post press conferences. Okay, and you

1133
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,800
Speaker 5: know NFL is different than in college basketball, is different

1134
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:08,040
Speaker 5: than NBA whatever, But like I hate postgame press conferences

1135
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,839
Speaker 5: as somebody who regularly does postgame press conferences, because I'm

1136
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 5: asking a coach about stuff they haven't seen or stuff

1137
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 5: they don't have access to when I have seven thousand

1138
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 5: different angles of things and much better perspective on it,

1139
00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:21,800
Speaker 5: and they don't have those perspectives or those different points

1140
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 5: of view until the Monday when we do the recap

1141
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,840
Speaker 5: press conference. Like, the postgame press conference is one of

1142
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:30,440
Speaker 5: the most fundamentally useless things in the world. Other than

1143
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,839
Speaker 5: there's there does tend to be a little bit more

1144
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:35,600
Speaker 5: raw emotion if he thinks that something happened in game

1145
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:39,080
Speaker 5: or didn't happen in game, that you know, after the fact,

1146
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,279
Speaker 5: he realizes, oh, yeah, I was just caught up. There's

1147
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:43,560
Speaker 5: a million things flying around me at that point in time,

1148
00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:45,759
Speaker 5: and I did the thing that I said I didn't do.

1149
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 4: I'm not mad at Danny Hurley about that, no.

1150
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:50,759
Speaker 2: But the next time I hear Danny Hurley issue an

1151
00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:52,759
Speaker 2: apology in front of a microphone will be the first

1152
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 2: time I've heard Danny Hurley issue an apology in front

1153
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,359
Speaker 2: of a microphone. And even in this instance, when they

1154
00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 2: were asked if he expected to be suspended, he said no,

1155
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,200
Speaker 2: he didn't make contact, and then said, I've been ejected before.

1156
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,120
Speaker 2: I've I've been back out there. It's not my first rodeo.

1157
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 2: That's the problem. Like, no matter how many times they

1158
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 2: eject him, no matter how many things he screams, no

1159
00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:12,879
Speaker 2: matter how much he cries over and over and over

1160
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 2: again to everybody that will possibly listen, he just keeps

1161
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:18,719
Speaker 2: coming back and doing it, and we let him get

1162
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,360
Speaker 2: away with the The man makes eight point three million dollars

1163
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,920
Speaker 2: per year. He is the highest paid educator in the

1164
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 2: state of Connecticut. We can argue all day long how

1165
00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 2: much educating he's actually doing. All I'm saying is that

1166
00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,359
Speaker 2: if you stand up in front of a team of

1167
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 2: college athletes and tell them that they need to act

1168
00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 2: a certain way because they have Yukon on their chest,

1169
00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 2: then you need to do the same damn thing when

1170
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:40,920
Speaker 2: you are the head coach of that basketball team. And

1171
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:43,120
Speaker 2: I'm saying that knowing full well that we are on

1172
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:45,720
Speaker 2: in Hartford. One of our affiliates is on in Hartford.

1173
00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,040
Speaker 2: I live twenty minutes from this. Every time I say

1174
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,440
Speaker 2: something about Yukon, somebody tweets me with you don't really understand.

1175
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 4: Now.

1176
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:54,239
Speaker 2: I understand better than everybody because I listen to this

1177
00:52:54,440 --> 00:52:58,480
Speaker 2: jackass over and over and over again every single week

1178
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:03,360
Speaker 2: act exactly like this. It's exhausting. The whole world doesn't

1179
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:05,960
Speaker 2: have it out for you, and if they do, you

1180
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 2: might want to look in the mirror and figure out

1181
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,879
Speaker 2: why you're part of the problem, because you are part

1182
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,360
Speaker 2: of the problem. Like I get it. Heroes and villains

1183
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,359
Speaker 2: are good for sports, and it's good for what we do.

1184
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:19,680
Speaker 2: It's just exhausting listening to It's like listening to my

1185
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 2: passive aggressive mom every time she wants to be passive aggressive.

1186
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,319
Speaker 2: Just say we do damn chest Pam, Just say it,

1187
00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 2: we do chest Hurley all right, like and say it

1188
00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 2: once and then move on.

1189
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:32,440
Speaker 3: Good God, Like the guy just wears me out.

1190
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 4: I'm sorry.

1191
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,200
Speaker 3: I love Yukon basketball. Living in this neighborhood, it's great.

1192
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,440
Speaker 3: Hurley is just too much. He's buck rising. I'm Jason Fitz.

1193
00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:43,520
Speaker 2: Now that I've equated a very successful basketball coach to

1194
00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,400
Speaker 2: might not so successful Mom, Yes, go ahead.

1195
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:45,920
Speaker 4: Buck Well.

1196
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 5: I was just going to say, I don't know how

1197
00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:50,400
Speaker 5: many more comedically better names you could have used than Pam.

1198
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 5: And what I will tell you with my chest is

1199
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,120

1209

Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. Still haven't talked him into frozen grapes.

1212
00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 2: Frozen grapes are delicious? Why are we being fined? How

1213
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 2: am I possibly being fine?

1214
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:42,479
Speaker 4: Uh? Not way, sweetheart, That's all.

1215
00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:44,560
Speaker 3: Mine being fined for? What am I being fined for?

Speaker 3: Frozen marriage?

1217
00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:48,439
Speaker 4: Tell him what you just told me before you turned

1218
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 4: on microphones.

1219
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 3: Let's go.

1220
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 6: My thing is, every time I hear these rejoins, I

1221
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:53,360
Speaker 6: just hear something new to hate on.

1222
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 3: And I finally caught the Porsche controlled part. I don't

1223
00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:59,359
Speaker 3: know why I never heard that part till now. Yeah,

1224
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,040
Speaker 3: portion control, because I'm not a monster here. I'm measure

00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,440
Speaker 3: my macros. I measure my macros here. No it's not

1226
00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:07,319
Speaker 3: I'm disciplined. I am disciplined. I am trying to get

1227
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:08,560
Speaker 3: my abs to have abs.

1228
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:11,040
Speaker 2: I can't just go willy nilly when I've got you know,

1229
00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:13,719
Speaker 2: twenty milligrams and edibles in my system. If I don't

1230
00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,080
Speaker 2: have these Porscha controlled, I'm gonna eat the entire bag

1231
00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 2: of grapes the next day.

1232
00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:19,000
Speaker 3: Porsa controlled.

Speaker 2: Yeah, I pre measure my grapes, pre measure my grapes,

1235
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 2: put them in a little baggies, pre measured when I

1236
00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:24,640
Speaker 2: freeze them.

1237
00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:26,919
Speaker 3: That is that way. I just go in, I pull

1238
00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:28,640
Speaker 3: out a little baggy, pull out a little.

1239
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 2: Baggy of snacks, and I know that I will not

1240
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,520
Speaker 2: over indulge, like I know right now that I have

1241
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:33,720
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty seven.

1242
00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:34,759
Speaker 3: Calories left for the day.

Speaker 2: I'm going to enjoy those with a rice crispy treat

1244
00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:38,680
Speaker 2: and a few frozen grapes.

1245
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:41,840
Speaker 3: That's That's what that's called. Discipline. People.

1246
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:44,200
Speaker 5: My fat ass just got up in the middle of

1247
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 5: that commercial break, walk to the vending machine and got

1248
00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 5: a snickers.

1249
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,239
Speaker 4: Oh my god, what kind of you know?

1250
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:54,880
Speaker 5: The beautiful part of this is I will let you

1251
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:56,239
Speaker 5: get to whatever you want to get to here in

1252
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 5: just a second, FITZI I uh am supposed to be

1253
00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:02,440
Speaker 5: the show. Okay, like this is, and it's not just

1254
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 5: not supposed to be. I am okay like that is

1255
00:56:05,239 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 5: a title that I've had my entire life. I'm a snob.

1256
00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:11,080
Speaker 5: I'm the latest, and I'm good with it. Like self

1257
00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:14,319
Speaker 5: awareness is key. The best advice I've ever been given

1258
00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:18,240
Speaker 5: in any in any facet of life is the sooner

1259
00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:21,120
Speaker 5: that you could admit you're a d bag, the easier

1260
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:21,960
Speaker 5: life becomes.

1261
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:24,200
Speaker 4: And I know that I am okay and it's freeing.

1262
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:25,000
Speaker 4: I love it.

1263
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 5: It makes me very very happy, and I'm happy to

1264
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 5: tell anybody that I come across, Yes, I'm that guy,

1265
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:34,880
Speaker 5: except when I sit across from you. Okay, because you

1266
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:39,359
Speaker 5: you are under some kind of impression that you are

1267
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:45,040
Speaker 5: not equally as snooty as I am. But the person

1268
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:49,040
Speaker 5: who talks publicly about counting their macros and how many

1269
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:51,400
Speaker 5: calories they have for the rest of the day and

1270
00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,919
Speaker 5: portion controlled and all these things, it's okay to do them.

1271
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:55,800
Speaker 4: We don't have to hear about it. It's okay.

1272
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,719
Speaker 5: Also, how many you you say abs on top of

1273
00:56:58,719 --> 00:56:59,759
Speaker 5: your wraps, how many abs you have?

1274
00:56:59,840 --> 00:56:59,960
Speaker 4: Right?

1275
00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 3: I got one? I've got one?

1276
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 4: App is like a weird growth.

1277
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:06,440
Speaker 3: I mean, that's the funny thing.

1278
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:09,319
Speaker 2: Is like, like, I've worked my ass off tiressly for

1279
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,280
Speaker 2: two years at this point, almost two years. May seventeenth

1280
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 2: will be two years of absolute dedication and work.

1281
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 3: And if we if Buck and I walked in together,

1282
00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:18,880
Speaker 3: nobody would.

1283
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,720
Speaker 2: Be like, oh yeah, one of these guys is a sacrificing

1284
00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:21,560
Speaker 2: and the other guy isn't.

1285
00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:24,680
Speaker 3: Like I completely acknowledge this. I am trying so hard.

1286
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:26,440
Speaker 3: But when you get you know, I mean, come on, man,

1287
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 3: like I'm gonna be for what it's worth. I'm gonna

1288
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:30,720
Speaker 3: be forty nine in a couple of months. I gets

1289
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 3: tougher at my age, am to just to cut these things.

1290
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:35,800
Speaker 3: I know I look good for my age. I'm not

1291
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:36,600
Speaker 3: gonna lie about that.

1292
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:39,880
Speaker 2: But like it gets tougher and tougher as you get

1293
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,400
Speaker 2: to this pot to see and like I keep thinking

1294
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:44,280
Speaker 2: that I'm gonna be happy with wherever I end up,

1295
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 2: and then.

1296
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 3: Wherever I end up, I don't quite have the apps

1297
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,400
Speaker 3: and want yet. No, I'm just done. I set out

1298
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:48,760
Speaker 3: for a goal.

1299
00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,760
Speaker 2: I'm very goal oriented book, so if my goal is

1300
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:54,280
Speaker 2: to get ABS, I refuse to stop short of that.

1301
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 2: But I may at some point soon have to give up.

1302
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,080
Speaker 2: I may just have to decide that God looked at

1303
00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:01,040
Speaker 2: me and said, not you've that, Jesus, you don't get

1304
00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:04,280
Speaker 2: the apps, like I will say, though, I saw I

1305
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:07,640
Speaker 2: saw somebodies from ESPN the other day at a minor

1306
00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 2: league hockey game, and I haven't seen some of them

1307
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 2: in several years.

1308
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:12,960
Speaker 3: And the first thing that a couple of them said is,

1309
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:14,760
Speaker 3: oh my god, you got Jack, dude. This is the

1310
00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:15,760
Speaker 3: best thing you could tell me.

1311
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:18,720
Speaker 2: Is because at least like people notice some small difference

1312
00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 2: when I haven't seen them in a minute.

1313
00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:21,880
Speaker 3: But I'm telling you buck, like I really do. Like

1314
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:23,880
Speaker 3: it's it's a nightmare. If I walk into a room

1315
00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:27,720
Speaker 3: and I see people haven't seen for years, and nobody says, wow, God,

1316
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:29,680
Speaker 3: have you been in the gym? Like at this point,

1317
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:31,439
Speaker 3: if that doesn't happen, I might as well just crawl

1318
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:33,280
Speaker 3: into my bed and sleep for three days because I'm

1319
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 3: just sad.

1320
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:35,840
Speaker 5: When's the last time you and I have been in

1321
00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 5: the same place in person? Was that Super Bowl? Two

1322
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:39,240
Speaker 5: super bowls ago in New Orleans?

1323
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:41,560
Speaker 3: New Orleans?

1324
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:42,440
Speaker 4: Was last year?

1325
00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,480
Speaker 3: Not this super Bowl? But yeah, yeah super bowls A.

1326
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, yes, okay, So the when when we all get

1327
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:49,640
Speaker 5: together as a show in LA, because I'm going to

1328
00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 5: be in LA at whatever point the NFL puts out

1329
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,400
Speaker 5: the schedule for the year. The Titans will play at

1330
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:58,200
Speaker 5: Los Angeles this year. So we're gonna make FITZI schlept

1331
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:01,160
Speaker 5: from Connecticut to Los Angeles so we can all be together.

1332
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:05,040
Speaker 5: We have to the three of us, Ian and Mary

1333
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 5: and myself. We all have to commit to the bit

1334
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:09,640
Speaker 5: that none of us will compliment Jackson fits on his

1335
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:10,480
Speaker 5: physical appearance.

1336
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 3: You know what, here's the thing.

1337
00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:14,480
Speaker 2: By the time, now that I have that date, like

1338
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,840

1343
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:25,480

01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:44,360
Speaker 6: The Magic Lead beat the Timberwolves one, nineteen to ninety two,

1400
01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:48,160
Speaker 6: Palo Bancaro with twenty five points and fifteen rebounds. Anthony

1401
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,360
Speaker 6: Edwards had thirty four points, and college basketball had a

1402
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:55,920
Speaker 6: major upset. Marquette beat the fourth length Yukon Husky's sixty

1403
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 6: eight to sixty two, Dan Hurley getting ejected in the

1404
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:01,480
Speaker 6: final second of the game for bumping into an official.

1405
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 6: The Ravens have resigned backup quarterback Tyler Huntley, Packers trading

1406
01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,040
Speaker 6: defensive tackle Kolby Wooden to the Colster Ziar Franklin, a

1407
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:12,400
Speaker 6: linebacker forty nine Ers and kicker Eddie Pinero agree to

1408
01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:15,480
Speaker 6: a four year contract. The Eagles make defensive tackle j

1409
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 6: Jordan Davis the highest paid no tackle in the league,

1410
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:21,760
Speaker 6: on a three year extension. Connor McGovern and the Bills

1411
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,160
Speaker 6: have agreed to a new four year contract extension to

1412
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:28,000
Speaker 6: keep the middle of their offensive line intact. Rams cornerback

1413
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:31,840
Speaker 6: Darius Williams retired after eight seasons, and Cowboys have not

1414
01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:34,040
Speaker 6: been able to come to an agreement with a long

1415
01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:37,360
Speaker 6: term contract extension for Brandon Aubrey, so the team has

1416
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:41,160
Speaker 6: moved to a restricted free agent tender worth five point

1417
01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 6: seven million, and that if the team can match it,

1418
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 6: and Cowboys have opportunity to match that, and if they don't,

1419
01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 6: they'll get a second round pick. And you know, I

1420
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,360
Speaker 6: was trying to come up with a joke, but I

1421
01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:58,720
Speaker 6: got nothing. I really got nothing. I really am I

1422
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:00,320
Speaker 6: don't know. I was host to host show in a

1423
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 6: half an hour. I'm totally distracted right now.

1424
01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:05,800
Speaker 3: I've got to be sitting there wide eyed.

1425
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:09,280
Speaker 4: I got to recap thinking about body pudding.

1426
01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:12,920
Speaker 3: It's going to be all for the rest of it.

1427
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 3: I'm not in my life contemplated this before. And now

1428
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:18,200
Speaker 3: I have so many questions, none of which I should

1429
01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:18,880
Speaker 3: ask back to you.

1430
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:22,160
Speaker 2: Nilla wafers are always the answer. He's buck Rising. I'm

1431
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:24,160
Speaker 2: Jason fitz Bucket Fish Human.

1432
01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:33,200
Speaker 3: Sports. Welcome to the Last ever bucket fits on. I

1433
01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:36,080
Speaker 3: got scared there for a thank you so much, thank you,

1434
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:37,200
Speaker 3: thank you so so much.

1435
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:41,280
Speaker 2: All Right, So I've had an epiphany, not about body pudding,

1436
01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:43,800
Speaker 2: but about the NFL. Uh And I can't believe I've

1437
01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 2: had this epiphany, but it finally hit me. I said

1438
01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:47,120
Speaker 2: something to you a couple of days ago that I

1439
01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:50,720
Speaker 2: think applies to more than just quarterbacks. We were talking

1440
01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 2: about whether quarterbacks need to lift up talent or talent

1441
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:55,600
Speaker 2: needs to lift up quarterbacks, and I mentioned at the

1442
01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:57,760
Speaker 2: time it's a little like a teeter totter or a seesaw,

1443
01:03:57,840 --> 01:03:59,960
Speaker 2: depending on where you grew up. Like in the beginning,

1444
01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:02,280
Speaker 2: I think you have to surround a bunch of a

1445
01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:04,760
Speaker 2: bunch of talent around that young quarterback, and that talent

1446
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,680
Speaker 2: is really the weight, and then over the years, the

1447
01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 2: quarterback becomes the weight and they lift everybody else up.

1448
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,320
Speaker 2: I feel like that's the same thing with draft picks,

1449
01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:15,480
Speaker 2: because earlier I said, how do you get great You

1450
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:18,400
Speaker 2: nail it with the draft over and over and over again.

1451
01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:20,560
Speaker 2: And if you nail it with the draft, and I'm

1452
01:04:20,600 --> 01:04:24,120
Speaker 2: not talking just about first rounders, I'm talking about second, third, fourth, fifth,

1453
01:04:24,400 --> 01:04:27,680
Speaker 2: If you just consistently nail it with the draft and

1454
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:32,720
Speaker 2: development and depth. Then it provides the opportunity eventually when

1455
01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 2: you're really good, to say f them picks. And so

1456
01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 2: often what we see, like the Raiders get two first

1457
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:41,320
Speaker 2: rounders for back Scrosby. Well, in theory, you know, hopefully

1458
01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:43,120
Speaker 2: they don't blow it with these first rounders. It could

1459
01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,200
Speaker 2: be a real opportunity to reset, but realistically most teams

1460
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:49,040
Speaker 2: suck don't do well with those. The opposite of it

1461
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,760
Speaker 2: is the Rams have drafted so well as an organization,

1462
01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,120
Speaker 2: not just at the first round they've traded their draft pick,

1463
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:56,200
Speaker 2: notine in the last ten years, right, but the rest

1464
01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:58,600
Speaker 2: of the draft they've nailed. They've nailed so much of

1465
01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:02,720
Speaker 2: how to put together their and then they continually aggressively

1466
01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:06,240
Speaker 2: trade high draft picks for young talent they can still

1467
01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 2: get a few years out of that they still believe in.

1468
01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:10,600
Speaker 2: So Trent McDuffie gets traded to the Rams, and the

1469
01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:12,840
Speaker 2: whole time I just keep thinking, well, of course, this

1470
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:15,480
Speaker 2: makes sense because they are at a spot where the

1471
01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:17,880
Speaker 2: majority of their fifty three is good. Like the same

1472
01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:20,640
Speaker 2: exercise we talked about earlier, if you ask yourself, how

1473
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:21,200
Speaker 2: many of these.

1474
01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:23,760
Speaker 3: Players would start on a playoff caliber football team. The

1475
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:26,040
Speaker 3: answer for the Rams buck is a bunch, and when

1476
01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,920
Speaker 3: that's the answer, then you can be more aggressive. Like

1477
01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:31,400
Speaker 3: part of the reason you didn't love the Ravens trade

1478
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 3: was they have a lot of holes. The Rams don't

1479
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:35,680
Speaker 3: have a lot of holes. So while they're in a

1480
01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:38,520
Speaker 3: Super Bowl now window, saying FM picks is actually a

1481
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:40,760
Speaker 3: really smart strategy because of where they are in their

1482
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:43,600
Speaker 3: window and where they are with their total roster today.

1483
01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:48,440
Speaker 5: Well, this was a fact. It's not a stat but

1484
01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:50,680
Speaker 5: a fact that was given to me on the local show.

1485
01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:53,480
Speaker 5: I guess at some point within the last two weeks.

1486
01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:55,320
Speaker 5: I can't remember if it was while we were a

1487
01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 5: combiner or this past week with all the information flying around,

1488
01:05:58,640 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 5: I guess it would have been this week because we

1489
01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:01,600
Speaker 5: were talking about the McDuffie trade. It happened while we

1490
01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:04,440
Speaker 5: were live on the air here in Nashville. Do you

1491
01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:07,040
Speaker 5: know who has made the most draft picks of any

1492
01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:08,360
Speaker 5: team in the last ten years.

1493
01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:11,520
Speaker 3: I'm going to guess, because you're asking me, the Rams

1494
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 3: are going to be the.

1495
01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:14,240
Speaker 4: End, it's the Rams. It's the Rams.

1496
01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:17,680
Speaker 5: Shout out Robert Walsh for finding that fact. They are

1497
01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:20,240
Speaker 5: not actually a bleep them picks team. They are a

1498
01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:25,040
Speaker 5: bleep them first round picks team. They are eating feasting

1499
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:29,440
Speaker 5: in fact less Need and his staff in the bulk

1500
01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 5: of the draft. On Day two and Day three, they

1501
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:37,400
Speaker 5: are hitting on cost effective, starting caliber players across the board. Now, listen,

1502
01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:43,080
Speaker 5: everything is cyclical, especially in an inexact science like the draft.

1503
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:46,080
Speaker 5: So is that a sustainable way for them to continue

1504
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:49,000
Speaker 5: to operate For them, it seems to be with a

1505
01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:50,320
Speaker 5: decade of a sample size.

1506
01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:52,240
Speaker 4: The idea that they've made more picks than.

1507
01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:55,600
Speaker 5: Any other NFL team in the last decade, despite everybody

1508
01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 5: thinking that they just trade picks away at will, is

1509
01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 5: one of the easiest things.

1510
01:07:00,680 --> 01:07:02,680
Speaker 4: It was mind blowing for me to hear that earlier

1511
01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:03,160
Speaker 4: this week.

1512
01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:06,600
Speaker 5: So to their credit, they have enough confidence in the

1513
01:07:06,680 --> 01:07:09,200
Speaker 5: rest of their system and their staff and their process.

1514
01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:13,160
Speaker 5: However you want to describe this to make sure that, yeah,

1515
01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 5: the first round pick is the thing that shiny and

1516
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:17,120
Speaker 5: bright and everybody thinks is going to be the thing

1517
01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:18,280
Speaker 5: that changes the.

1518
01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:21,920
Speaker 4: Entire future of your team in the draft. But instead

1519
01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:23,720
Speaker 4: of leaving that up to fate.

1520
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:27,919
Speaker 5: And using our high variance risk situation on a first

1521
01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:30,240
Speaker 5: round draft pick that may be a good player. It

1522
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,520
Speaker 5: may not be a good player depending on what the

1523
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,040
Speaker 5: hit rate, the average first round hit rate is for

1524
01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:38,000
Speaker 5: NFL teams. We're going to use those first round picks

1525
01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:44,800
Speaker 5: to buy essentially quality, proven starters in the NFL and

1526
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 5: then just bank on the fact that we know what we're.

1527
01:07:47,120 --> 01:07:49,520
Speaker 4: Doing better than just about any other team.

1528
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:52,760
Speaker 5: You might debate the merits of that, but I think

1529
01:07:52,800 --> 01:07:54,960
Speaker 5: their track record speaks for itself that we're going to

1530
01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:56,200
Speaker 5: be able to get this done on Day two and

1531
01:07:56,320 --> 01:07:58,760
Speaker 5: Day three, and the first round pick isn't anything, but

1532
01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:02,200
Speaker 5: you know, a shiny where you do have more opportunities

1533
01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:05,920
Speaker 5: to take chances on an Anthony Richardson type situation.

1534
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,680
Speaker 4: I know that's an extreme example of that.

1535
01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:11,040
Speaker 5: Not everybody's drafting, Like Taylor Green is not going to

1536
01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:13,800
Speaker 5: be a first round draft pick, the Arkansas quarterback who

1537
01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:17,000
Speaker 5: has some of the freaky athletic characteristics at least as

1538
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:20,120
Speaker 5: far as the combine testing goes, as Anthony Richardson did.

1539
01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 5: But still, you understand my point. They don't need the

1540
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:25,719
Speaker 5: first round picks because they're using them in more viable ways,

1541
01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:28,559
Speaker 5: in a more exact way than just about any other

1542
01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:29,240
Speaker 5: team in the sport.

1543
01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:32,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, and That's the interesting part about it is that

1544
01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 2: so often we talk about the coaches, and we talk

1545
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:41,120
Speaker 2: about the quarterbacks. But to me, there are a handful

1546
01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:44,920
Speaker 2: of gms or team runners, whatever that might be, that

1547
01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 2: are just better than everybody. A few years ago, field

1548
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:49,800
Speaker 2: Yates tweeted out when the Chiefs were in their second

1549
01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 2: second straight when they won their second straight Super Bowl,

1550
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:55,240
Speaker 2: field Yates tweeted out the success of the Kansas City

1551
01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:57,640
Speaker 2: Draft in second, third, fourth, and fifth round picks over

1552
01:08:57,720 --> 01:08:59,519
Speaker 2: the course of a five year period, and all but

1553
01:08:59,640 --> 01:09:02,640
Speaker 2: one player at the time from those drafts that was

1554
01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:05,880
Speaker 2: picked second, third, fourth, and fifth was on the Chiefs roster.

1555
01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:09,000
Speaker 2: That buck speaks to what you're talking about. Like Les's

1556
01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:11,320
Speaker 2: need is a cheat code, Howie Roseman is a cheat code,

1557
01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:13,280
Speaker 2: not just for the way that they acquire players, but

1558
01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:15,280
Speaker 2: for the way that they utilize the draft. It's one

1559
01:09:15,320 --> 01:09:17,240
Speaker 2: of the craziest things to me that in a sport,

1560
01:09:17,560 --> 01:09:19,599
Speaker 2: in a league where there is no cap for how

1561
01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:22,280
Speaker 2: much you can pay a front office person, I genuinely

1562
01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:24,599
Speaker 2: don't understand. Like, if Mark Davis really wanted to turn

1563
01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:26,880
Speaker 2: around my beloved Raiders, the first thing he could have

1564
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:29,000
Speaker 2: done years ago was just gone to Howie Roseman and said,

1565
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:31,559
Speaker 2: I'll give you a hundred million dollars, like there's got

1566
01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:32,559
Speaker 2: to everybody has a price.

1567
01:09:32,640 --> 01:09:34,880
Speaker 3: Million dollar man, straight up, I'll give you whatever it takes.

1568
01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:37,479
Speaker 3: If I'm a team that sucks, I'm going to less

1569
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 3: need and I'm saying, hey, how much you want, what's

1570
01:09:40,400 --> 01:09:40,880
Speaker 3: the dream?

1571
01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:43,040
Speaker 2: I'll pay you more than we pay anybody in the

1572
01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:46,439
Speaker 2: history of this organization. I'll make you the part owner

1573
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:47,000
Speaker 2: if I have to.

1574
01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:49,479
Speaker 3: I want you to come on to this team and

1575
01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:52,040
Speaker 3: do with this team, to this team that you've done

1576
01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:55,040
Speaker 3: with the Rams, because certainly the Rams are in a

1577
01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:56,880
Speaker 3: window right now with Stafford, and let's see how it

1578
01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:58,200
Speaker 3: looks when they don't have Stafford.

1579
01:09:58,240 --> 01:09:59,960
Speaker 2: They're going to have to figure out their quarterback future.

1580
01:10:00,439 --> 01:10:02,600
Speaker 2: But I love the way they're handling all of this,

1581
01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:06,640
Speaker 2: and it's about being strategically aggressive. Like we're going to

1582
01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:09,240
Speaker 2: question for a long time whether or not the Colts.

1583
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,960
Speaker 3: Were correctly strategically aggressive in acquiring Sauce Gardner because we

1584
01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:15,240
Speaker 3: don't really know if Daniel Jones is the quarterback for

1585
01:10:15,280 --> 01:10:17,519
Speaker 3: the future. I'm not sure if this season goes off

1586
01:10:17,560 --> 01:10:19,600
Speaker 3: the rails they don't get something worked out positive with

1587
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:22,360
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones and they suck. Is stichen gonna be one

1588
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:23,320
Speaker 3: foot out to do? I don't know.

1589
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:27,160
Speaker 2: There's so many stability questions with them, it doesn't necessarily

1590
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:30,240
Speaker 2: make sense right now to know if they were being aggressive.

1591
01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:32,680
Speaker 3: The Rams don't have any of those stability questions. The

1592
01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:34,639
Speaker 3: Eagles don't have any of those stability questions.

1593
01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:38,120
Speaker 2: So like we all understand where stability comes in those organizations,

1594
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:41,720
Speaker 2: and that gives you the opportunity to be particularly aggressive.

1595
01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:44,840
Speaker 5: Speaking of things that are unstable. If you missed any

1596
01:10:44,880 --> 01:10:46,120
Speaker 5: of today's show, you'll want to.

1600
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:55,880

01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:58,920

Speaker 5: Alex in our podcast.

1611
01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:23,240
Speaker 4: It's fine. I'm not mad at anybody. I'm just lashing

1612
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:23,879
Speaker 4: out recklessly.

1613
01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:24,519
Speaker 3: Okay.

1614
01:11:24,680 --> 01:11:26,200
Speaker 2: I mean, at the end of the day, if that,

1615
01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:29,240
Speaker 2: if that protects us from our own nill away for

1616
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:31,920
Speaker 2: content that's probably not the mighty better. I mean, that

1617
01:11:32,120 --> 01:11:33,760
Speaker 2: might be better at this point. He might just be

1618
01:11:33,880 --> 01:11:37,439
Speaker 2: my making smart career decisions. From the first time hearing

1619
01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:40,840
Speaker 2: of this, Oh oh yeah, oh oh Mary, how's that

1620
01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 2: not a fine? He went to a microphone to call

1621
01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:46,280
Speaker 2: out the producer without saying anything to the producer first.

1622
01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:49,720
Speaker 3: That seems like that's a bad teammate. Fine, who are you?

1623
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:57,320
Speaker 3: I'm trying to question your authority in here. I'm the

1624
01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:58,200
Speaker 3: body pudding man.

1625
01:11:59,200 --> 01:12:01,679
Speaker 2: All right, you know what, it's time for the single

1626
01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:04,800
Speaker 2: greatest game show in the history of sports talcer God,

1627
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:07,639
Speaker 2: would you rather coming up next to Bucking Fits? Bucks

1628
01:12:07,640 --> 01:12:09,960
Speaker 2: still getting fined somehow someway? Would you rather coming up

1629
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:16,439
Speaker 2: next on Fox Sports Radio? Nope, it's Bucking Fits hanging

1630
01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:18,960
Speaker 2: out with you on Fox Sports Radio. He's Buck Rising.

1631
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:23,120
Speaker 2: I'm Jason Fitz. Saturday night. We'll be back with you,

1632
01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:24,960
Speaker 2: by the way, Monday morning. We're in for two pros

1633
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:26,760
Speaker 2: and a cup of Joe the two of us will

1634
01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:28,080
Speaker 2: be hanging out getting your morning set.

1635
01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:29,439
Speaker 3: So don't forget.

1636
01:12:29,640 --> 01:12:32,599
Speaker 2: NFL Free Agent Legal Tampering starts at noon on Monday,

1637
01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:34,639
Speaker 2: so we'll have plenty of time to break that down.

1638
01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,040
Speaker 2: What you think we're not going to get invited after after,

1639
01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:38,800
Speaker 2: you know, body putting, I.

1640
01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:39,759
Speaker 4: Think that would be wise.

1641
01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:43,200
Speaker 5: I think I think Brady and Levarr and Jonas would

1642
01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:45,840
Speaker 5: be like, you know, maybe maybe maybe think about something again.

1643
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:47,639
Speaker 3: I'm going to call an audible on this one.

1644
01:12:47,760 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 4: Let me have someone else in.

1645
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:51,400
Speaker 5: There, like you know what, Like, no, I'm not going

1646
01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:54,120
Speaker 5: to be dragged down by you and your body pudding. Okay, Like,

1647
01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:58,200
Speaker 5: let me let me do this and then you we will.

1648
01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:00,640
Speaker 5: This may be the part where we this may be

1649
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:02,439
Speaker 5: the point where we part ways, you and ire.

1650
01:13:02,520 --> 01:13:05,000
Speaker 2: I mean, here's the thing, like like Brady is too

1651
01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:08,519
Speaker 2: pretty for body pudding, LeVar is too cool for body pudding.

1652
01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:10,880
Speaker 2: So then it would have to definitely go to Jonas,

1653
01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:13,639
Speaker 2: Like Jonas is gonna be the sorry buddy, like Jonas

1654
01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:14,680
Speaker 2: is in, Jonas.

1655
01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:16,720
Speaker 3: Is gonna be the body putting. Like that's it. That's it,

1656
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:19,439
Speaker 3: That's where that's where we are. We'll be in for

1657
01:13:19,520 --> 01:13:21,120
Speaker 3: the three of them. And uh, we'll see.

1658
01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:24,040
Speaker 2: Like, I can't guarantee you I can't guarantee you that

1659
01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:26,800
Speaker 2: I won't bring body pudding, and I can't guarantee you

1660
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:28,799
Speaker 2: that Buck will actually wear clothes because it gets.

1661
01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:31,080
Speaker 3: Really weird when he's up that early. That's what happened.

1662
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:33,080
Speaker 3: So that's a dangerous combination.

1663
01:13:33,160 --> 01:13:34,720
Speaker 2: It's time for the single greatest gape show in the

1664
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:35,920
Speaker 2: history of sports talk radio.

1665
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:43,639
Speaker 3: Though it is time right now for what you rather there.

1666
01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:51,000
Speaker 4: Guys, don't think I have to or fix it.

1667
01:13:52,760 --> 01:13:54,960
Speaker 3: I meany We got there eventually, Yeah, it was.

1668
01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:57,400
Speaker 10: It was all right the second two words. We're in line,

1669
01:13:57,439 --> 01:13:59,479
Speaker 10: but it's always you just need that first word to

1670
01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:00,960
Speaker 10: kind of like established things.

1671
01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:09,280
Speaker 4: Blondond, I'm sorry, who's running the show? Back there? You two? Okay?

1672
01:14:09,920 --> 01:14:11,240
Speaker 3: What does that say about you? How about?

1673
01:14:11,240 --> 01:14:13,720
Speaker 4: How does it feel to be attached to all this? Wow?

1674
01:14:13,720 --> 01:14:19,120
Speaker 3: Wow, I can't look at that. You need to talk

1675
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:22,400
Speaker 3: to your therapist about displacement. Go ahead, go ahead, give

1676
01:14:22,479 --> 01:14:23,599
Speaker 3: us a give us what you got here.

1677
01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:27,280
Speaker 4: You talked about therapists.

1678
01:14:29,479 --> 01:14:32,920
Speaker 10: Okay, So would you rather be locked in an empty

1679
01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:36,960
Speaker 10: room without any windows, clocks, or human contact for an

1680
01:14:37,160 --> 01:14:40,400
Speaker 10: entire year? But you get one hundred million dollars at

1681
01:14:40,439 --> 01:14:42,360
Speaker 10: the end of it, or would.

1682
01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:43,160
Speaker 3: You rather not do that?

1683
01:14:44,600 --> 01:14:46,960
Speaker 4: I'd rather not do that. That sounds awful.

1684
01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:48,599
Speaker 3: Okay. Is there a price tag?

1685
01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:48,840
Speaker 4: Though?

1686
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:48,920
Speaker 1: Like?

1687
01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:51,840
Speaker 10: Is there? Because I struggled with how much money the

1688
01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 10: prize should be? The like, if it was a trillion dollars,

1689
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:54,439
Speaker 10: would you do it?

1690
01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:56,280
Speaker 1: No?

1691
01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:58,920
Speaker 5: I don't think I would. That sounds like like the

1692
01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:01,479
Speaker 5: hell you would be ever warped. I mean a year

1693
01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:06,360
Speaker 5: in total isolation, you would be a totally different person.

1694
01:15:06,439 --> 01:15:08,000
Speaker 5: On the other side of that. What good would the

1695
01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:12,400
Speaker 5: money be? But you would you would? Yeah, Okay, it's

1696
01:15:12,520 --> 01:15:16,040
Speaker 5: what that is. One of the perfect encapsulations of money

1697
01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:19,040
Speaker 5: does not buy happiness, all right, Like, I don't know.

1698
01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:20,000
Speaker 4: Maybe I'm stubborn.

1699
01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:22,960
Speaker 5: Maybe people would think I'm insane for saying no to

1700
01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:24,759
Speaker 5: any amount of money. But there is not an amount

1701
01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:26,280
Speaker 5: of money you could put in front of me to

1702
01:15:26,360 --> 01:15:27,160
Speaker 5: make me want.

1703
01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:27,360
Speaker 4: To do that.

1704
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:29,840
Speaker 3: I'll take it. I'll take all of it. I'll take

1705
01:15:29,840 --> 01:15:30,519
Speaker 3: one hundred million.

1706
01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:33,360
Speaker 4: I mean, associopath look like.

1707
01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:36,799
Speaker 3: So it's funny because, especially when you first start in Abandon,

1708
01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:38,560
Speaker 3: you have to do West coastuff. You just have to

1709
01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:40,719
Speaker 3: ride in the tour bus. The whole time. So sometimes

1710
01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:42,720
Speaker 3: you're on the bus for twenty four hours to day

1711
01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:44,840
Speaker 3: four or five days in a row, and everybody ever

1712
01:15:44,920 --> 01:15:47,200
Speaker 3: toured with always got so antsy by day three or

1713
01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:49,040
Speaker 3: four of Like I can't move off this bus, and

1714
01:15:49,080 --> 01:15:51,920
Speaker 3: I'm like, what are we complaining about? Like, I just

1715
01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:55,639
Speaker 3: I don't I sit still fine in those situations when

1716
01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:57,479
Speaker 3: I know that there's an end game towards all of it,

1717
01:15:57,600 --> 01:16:00,400
Speaker 3: Like I'd need to be able to shower and shave

1718
01:16:00,479 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 3: and things like that, so why I still feel human

1719
01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:02,960
Speaker 3: during the process.

1720
01:16:03,040 --> 01:16:06,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, like and ideally if you gave me some books,

1721
01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:08,479
Speaker 2: that'd be nice. But yeah, if one hundred million dollars

1722
01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:09,799
Speaker 2: at the end of three hundred and sixty.

1723
01:16:09,640 --> 01:16:11,760
Speaker 3: Five days, I'm disciplined, baby, I'll take that one hundred

1724
01:16:11,800 --> 01:16:13,840
Speaker 3: million dollars crazy or not, I'll lop some of that

1725
01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:16,400
Speaker 3: off for the therapy I'll need afterwards, and then boom.

1726
01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:18,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm gonna go to Abtha and take all

1727
01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:22,639
Speaker 3: the pills I'm in one hundred percent, one hundred million dollars. Woo, No, Marcus,

1728
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:23,519
Speaker 3: rustle the hell out of it.

1729
01:16:23,560 --> 01:16:25,760
Speaker 2: But come on, what I mean, I'm just saying, I'm

1730
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:28,000
Speaker 2: gonna party my way through one hundred million dollars afterwards,

1731
01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:30,519
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'll take all the money, all right.

1732
01:16:33,479 --> 01:16:35,920
Speaker 4: Yes, we knew if he was unhanded, if the last

1733
01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:37,480
Speaker 4: hour of the show did not already.

1734
01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:41,040
Speaker 10: Tell us this, okay, would you rather be okay? Another

1735
01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,920
Speaker 10: another thing about being trapped? Would you rather be trapped

1736
01:16:43,920 --> 01:16:46,800
Speaker 10: in a spacious capsule way out and outer space or

1737
01:16:46,840 --> 01:16:47,040
Speaker 10: at the.

1738
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:52,280
Speaker 3: Bottom of the ocean spaces capsule and outer space?

1739
01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:54,479
Speaker 2: Because at least then I feel like I feel like

1740
01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:56,559
Speaker 2: the whole time, I'd be thinking that the ocean's going

1741
01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:58,680
Speaker 2: to collapse. Whatever I'm in in the ocean, then I'm

1742
01:16:58,680 --> 01:17:00,439
Speaker 2: gonna drown to death. And that sounds so scary.

1743
01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:03,280
Speaker 4: Are you watching? Are you on like a prison movie

1744
01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:04,800
Speaker 4: kick or something like that? What's going on?

1745
01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:07,400
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, Ian? What are we working through here?

1746
01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:07,679
Speaker 4: Buddy?

1747
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:09,800
Speaker 3: I don't even know. I don't even know. These just

1748
01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:13,280
Speaker 3: came to me today again concerns.

1749
01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:16,519
Speaker 10: You use a good mixture of chat, GPT and just

1750
01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:20,479
Speaker 10: like brain power here, this was a brain power.

1751
01:17:20,280 --> 01:17:23,360
Speaker 5: One, not something that I would claim is brain power.

1752
01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:26,240
Speaker 5: But I will also take the I will take the

1753
01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:29,879
Speaker 5: Martian experience. You can send me to the spacious capsule

1754
01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:31,880
Speaker 5: and out of space, I don't know. There is something

1755
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:37,000
Speaker 5: specifically claustrophobic about the ocean and the darkness of the

1756
01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:38,160
Speaker 5: depths of the ocean.

1757
01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:38,680
Speaker 4: I don't want that.

1758
01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:43,559
Speaker 3: Oh, I got news for you about space. It's dark. Yeah,

1759
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:44,800
Speaker 3: but I'm in a cap if I'm in the big

1760
01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:46,679
Speaker 3: I'm in a capsule. Do I have lights in the capsule?

1761
01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:49,720
Speaker 3: Like maybe a lava lamp? Yeah, you can have a

1762
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:52,880
Speaker 3: lava lamp. Okay, and I'm good. You want to get

1763
01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:53,439
Speaker 3: us another one?

1764
01:17:53,479 --> 01:17:54,519

01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:56,760
Speaker 3: Oh, that's all. That's all. That's all I wanted.

1766
01:17:56,880 --> 01:17:57,200
Speaker 4: Was it was?

1767
01:17:57,280 --> 01:17:59,439
Speaker 3: It was the lava lap gives one more.

1768
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:04,839
Speaker 4: Wheel? Was buffering?

1769
01:18:05,960 --> 01:18:06,240
Speaker 3: All right?

1770
01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:09,160
Speaker 10: Would you rather be able to get your energy through

1771
01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:12,760
Speaker 10: photosynthesis instead of eating, or be able to get eight

1772
01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:15,240
Speaker 10: hours worth of rest and recharge in just a five

1773
01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:15,800
Speaker 10: minute nap?

1774
01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:20,280
Speaker 4: Oh? That the ladder? I because I'm a terrible sleeper anyway.

1775
01:18:20,439 --> 01:18:23,920
Speaker 5: Like, if I can get five consecutive hours of sleep

1776
01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:26,120
Speaker 5: in any one night, I'm having a good day. So

1777
01:18:26,240 --> 01:18:28,200
Speaker 5: if I could, if I could feel like I got

1778
01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:31,760
Speaker 5: eight hours and five minutes photosynthesis. You have to have sun.

1779
01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:33,920
Speaker 5: Like FITZI hasn't seen the sun in six months. He

1780
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:35,519
Speaker 5: lives in Connecticut. It sounds awful.

01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:45,240
Speaker 3: would take the I don't I love the idea having

1784

Speaker 3: that much time. I'd have twenty three hours, I'd have

1785
01:18:47,640 --> 01:18:49,479
Speaker 3: almost twenty four hours, So I'm in for that. That's
