But 63 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: let's get into this show right now, because jay billis 64 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: he out there. 65 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 2: Calling out people for racial. 66 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: Overtones and ran Paul's nil comments. 67 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: Did you guys catch those? Well? 68 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: Jay Billis summed them up and said it's a pretty 69 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 1: clear dog whistle. 70 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 2: We know what that means. Let's get into it. 71 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: So they had the US Senate hearings on the Lumen 72 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: merger between PGA DP World Tour and Saudi Arabia Public 73 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: Investment Fund. 74 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 2: We all know that, and Senator Ram Paul supposed to 75 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: be talking about that, but he he just swerved off 76 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 2: the road a little bit off topic, and he wanted 77 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 2: to address the college athletes that are profiting off the nil. 78 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 2: So he said, many of us love watching amateur athletes 79 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 2: that weren't paid. Now, everybody that plays basketball in college 80 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 2: is going to be driving a Bentley or Rolls Royce. 81 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: I mean we're gonna be seeing rap stars instead of 82 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: basketball stars. 83 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 2: I mean this is crazy. Uh oh, you already know 84 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: where that went. Sous he in the bushes. He is 85 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 2: in the terrain right now. So Paul comparing basketball players 86 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: to rappers. 87 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: That got everybody's attention, and it sounded like it was 88 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: racially charged. 89 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 2: Let's be real. 90 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: So Jay billis want a esp his foremost college basketball 91 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: voices chimed in on this. He was talking to Dan 92 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: Lebertardi said, to be kind, it was racio undertones. It 93 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: was overtones. God dang, I love when people do that 94 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: because you remember you used to be like, man, you 95 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: understand me? And then Cassy used to hit you, mand 96 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: do you overstand? You'd be like what you've been watching? 97 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 1: Do the right thing or something. But I love that 98 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: he went there, and it was a pretty clear dog whistle, 99 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: that's what he says. So I didn't care for it. 100 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: I'm surprised he hasn't been called out on it more 101 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: to date, just like Tommy Tupperville with the ridiculous things 102 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: he said recently, which were basically, are white nationalists racist? 103 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 2: Right? 104 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: And at first he was like Noah, Noah, Noah, and 105 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: then he got pressed enough and he finally admitted, yes, okay, 106 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: that's what that was about. So Billis was unsure why 107 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: Paul hasn't been pressed about the racially charged comments, and said, who. 108 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 2: Cares what the players drive? Why do you care what 109 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 2: the players drive? 110 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: And all the people are talking about the they don't 111 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: like money in college sports, they didn't complain over the 112 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: last forty five and fifty years when revenues have gone 113 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: through the roof and coaches salaries have gone through the roof. 114 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: Strikes me as crazy. 115 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: That so many free market libertarians they're saying, oh, but 116 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: this one segment, no free marketing for you. Everybody else, 117 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: we want the free market, but we don't want that 118 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: for you. Interesting, So it's almost i moral. It's so 119 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: ridiculous that it gets to be im moral that we 120 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: want to restrict college athletes only. 121 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 2: And say, well, they get a scholarship. 122 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: But look at all the non athletes that get scholarships 123 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: and they can make whatever money they want. 124 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: Facts. All right. 125 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: So then Mike Ryan, who's on the Levatar show, said, yeah, 126 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: majority of the college athletes that are going to benefit 127 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: from the nil are minorities. It kind of feels like, 128 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: know your place. We want to keep the power dynamic 129 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: as is. All right, let's talk about this because we're 130 00:05:55,960 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: basically asking a rand Paul's NIO comments races. 131 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 2: All right, let me say this. It's interesting. 132 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 1: The one element that really hit home for me was 133 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: the fact that non athletes get scholarships and are able 134 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: to benefit tremendously off of it. I went to Columbia, 135 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 1: as you guys know who else went to Columbia. Lauren Hill, 136 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: who was the homie. I was a junior. She was 137 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: a freshman. We met day one when she got on 138 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: campus and we talked throughout all the time she was there. 139 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 2: Let me tell you what she had in terms of 140 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 2: journey versus me. 141 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: All right, I'm there. I gotta play all four years, right, 142 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: this is even before the ruler you gotta be over nineteen. 143 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: This is before you gotta play three years. It's just 144 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: you gotta play, right, So I gotta play at Columbia 145 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: all that time. Meanwhile, Lauren Hill could come in, go 146 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,679 Speaker 1: to class, disappear for her forever, go film Sister Act, 147 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: come back, do a Fuji album, Go do Sister Act two, 148 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 1: come back, do another Fuji album, blow up, and never 149 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: go back to school and then probably get an honorary 150 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: degree because you're so damn famous. And I remember talking 151 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: to her like dog, you can just tap out, go 152 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: do what you're destined to do your profession while still 153 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: being in college, and get paid for it and no 154 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: rule violation. 155 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 2: Why me? Why can't I? Now? 156 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if I was good enough to just 157 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: leave to the NFL, but the point is I wasn't 158 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: allowed to leave for the NFL. So that part right 159 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: there obviously hits home. And then it's another part of 160 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: this that's interesting because when you talk about nil and now. 161 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 2: All it's trying to do is. 162 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: Keep pace or catch up to what everyone else is 163 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: doing around the big business of college sports, especially football 164 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: and basketball. 165 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 2: So who gets paid. 166 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: The institutions, right, they get paid through all of the 167 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: broadcasting rights. They get paid obviously in scheduling as well. 168 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: Look when Florida State wants to play Columbia, then guess 169 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: what Columbia gonna get paid, because we ain't putting our 170 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: guys through that unless there's a little bit of that 171 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: scratch that. 172 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 2: Comes along with it. 173 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: So the institutions get paid, right, And then we also 174 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: know how it affects enrollment, how it infects the esteem 175 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: of the university. So therefore they get more people trying 176 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: to come to their institution. It just helps everything, including 177 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: a reputation, all right. So the institution get paid. The 178 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: coaches really get paid. Coaches in college the krim that 179 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: let Crimp surpass the NFL coaches, they getting paid nick 180 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: saving them guys pery. All right, So coaches getting paid, 181 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: institution get paid. Can the players get paid? 182 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 3: No? 183 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 2: No, no, no, okay, can they get a little something? 184 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 2: Here's their stipend? Shut up? 185 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: They got the scholarship is free. And I love when 186 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: they throw the scholarship argument. I was a Nike client. Now, 187 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: I wasn't Lebron, I wasn't Jordan my Paul George. I 188 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 1: ain't get paid by Nike, Bruce Smith did. I didn't 189 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: get paid by Nike. But I was a Nike ambassador, 190 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: Nike client. You know what that meant? 191 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 2: I could give whatever I wanted for free from Nike 192 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 2: because they ain't care. They're like, dog, we give it 193 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 2: to them wholesale. What's before wholesale? Like no sale? 194 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: Why not retail? Not wholesale? Just like, yeah, whatever here? 195 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: And I could just open up the catalog, order whatever, right, 196 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: and then I could go to the Nike store get 197 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: whatever for real. 198 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: I could in my heyday. Yeah, and that's just me. 199 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: You imagine that meant nothing to Nike except oooh, he's 200 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: gonna be an ambassador and broadcast our message. So now 201 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: you looking at these players and they're like, dog, don't 202 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: just give me what y'all can give me that costs 203 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: nothing to you. Give me a little of the skin 204 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: in the game. You're getting the institution, you're getting the coaches. 205 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: Why can't we get it? And let me remind you, 206 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: people are really here to see what we do in product, 207 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: in our labor, in us playing the game. So it's 208 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: a pretty obvious answer to me that the players should 209 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: be benefit off it. 210 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 2: But it's also pretty obvious that Ran Paul I ain't. 211 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: He doesn't like seeing players get paid, which became a 212 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: little too synonymous with black players getting paid in his 213 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: mind where he went wrong. So tell me you agree 214 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: with J Billis that Paul should be pressed more on 215 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: these comments because right now do never shut up? 216 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 2: Sounds like we pressing them as well. Oh man, I 217 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: was bumping from YG. 218 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: Last night, sitting there in the hot tub all sword 219 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: from playing all that damn pickleball. I lost like three 220 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: pounds though it works, And I was saying I'm. 221 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 2: The honey in the club. 222 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: Slang drugs, and I was like, I'm the homey in 223 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: the back stage on the beast thing like attract me. 224 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: I can't even rhyme it, and worst, I can't play 225 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: it around my kids. I've learned this that when you 226 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: have clean versions, they ain't really clean. 227 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 2: One. 228 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what Apple Music is doing with they 229 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: algorithm and they AI, but they don't catch every cursework 230 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: one and they don't define everything as a curse word, 231 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: which should be. 232 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 2: And then the other part is the context. Like we 233 00:10:59,280 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 2: had one there. 234 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: It was like all clean version, right, and I was 235 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: gonna play it before everybody came over cause my kids 236 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 1: out there too, right, And it was like yeah, girl, 237 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: Ben Dover getting the range Rover and I. 238 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,839 Speaker 2: Was like, that's clean. But I don't know if all 239 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 2: my daughters need to know that I'm saying, so it 240 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 2: ain't really clean. So I had to get that off 241 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 2: my chest. All right. 242 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: Now, let's get into the story right now, because Jim 243 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: Trotter had a lot to get off his chest as well. 244 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: Don't catch that transition. It's your boy, all right. 245 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: So he talks about the uncertain future of sports journalism 246 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: and leaving the NFL Network in media, so we know 247 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: who he is. And this past spring his contract wasn't 248 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: renewed by NFL Network and Trotter gained a lot of 249 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: attention national attention for questioning Roger Goodell the god the 250 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: thought about the league's lack of minority hiring, both on 251 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: the field and at NFL media. That was the end 252 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: that a lot of people didn't catch wind though. So 253 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: Trotter has said that he believes good Dell play the 254 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: role in his contract not being reading nude quote. Look, 255 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: I was focused on things that I felt were important. 256 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: I was focused on things that the NFL said were 257 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: important to it, and somewhere along the line, along the way, 258 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: there was a disconnect. The only thing I know is 259 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: that in November they said they expected to bring me back. 260 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: There was no reason to think I wouldn't be brought back. 261 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: It was either the last week in February the first 262 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: week in March. I was told that wasn't necessarily the 263 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 1: case anymore. 264 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 2: Hmm. 265 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: Only they could speak to why they took the actions 266 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: that they did, all right, So we caught that when 267 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: that happened in real time. Now, we didn't know that 268 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: they were gonna bring him back or not. We just 269 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: heard like, whoa, Jim Trotter's not coming back. Wow, that's interesting, 270 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: especially when you know that he talks a lot in 271 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,599 Speaker 1: alignment of what is going on with the hiring process 272 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: with minorities, and then they're gonna let him minority go. 273 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: Who is esteemed like it's not like he's a bad reporter, 274 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 1: people don't like him, et cetera. 275 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 2: But hey, let's talk a little more about it. 276 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: So he wrote a column recently about the diversity in 277 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 1: the XFL. If you got a watching as opposed to 278 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: the NFL, we know we're watching. That an example of 279 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: something he couldn't have done at his previous job, he said, 280 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: I will probably guess that every story situation is unique, 281 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: but I would say there's a strong likelihood I could 282 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: not have written it in that way. If the NFL 283 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 1: holds itself up to be about diversity, equity, and inclusion 284 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: and we're not seeing that on the field, and yet 285 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,599 Speaker 1: we are seeing it in the EXFL. 286 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 2: To me, that's news. 287 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: And the fact that coaches feel like they have to 288 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 1: leave the NFL to get these type opportunities also is 289 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 1: reflective of a problem in the NFL. For me, it's 290 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: about shining a light where I see an issue. Pure 291 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:39,719 Speaker 1: journalists right. 292 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 2: Here, Huh. 293 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: Sounded like a purist, right, He just like, I'm going 294 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: to the story. I don't give a damn of the 295 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 1: consequences or what's the resistance? All right, So his expectations 296 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 1: when he joined the NFL media this is pretty interesting, y'all. 297 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 2: We're gonna fly. We're gonna fly through this. 298 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: Before leaving the ESPN, I told him they knew when 299 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: I interviewed for the job. I said to them, let's 300 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: not waste each other's time. If our vision align, that's okay, 301 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: you go your way, I'll go mind damn he flowing 302 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,319 Speaker 1: up in there, he pop over there, ryman. I told 303 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: them there were three things I wanted to focus on. 304 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: Number one with social activism or player activism. Number two 305 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: wanted to humanize the players. Number three wanted to focus 306 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: on issues and trends within the league. I told them 307 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: that's something you're interested in, great, we can proceed. If not, 308 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: there's no need for us to waste each other time. 309 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: They told me those were things they were interested in. 310 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: Now here's the pushback on that. Even though all of 311 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: that sounds amazing, they're running a network. NFL network is 312 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: a little different in terms of the entertainment scope. Supposed 313 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: to lean a little heavier on the exposure and educational side, 314 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: right Like you're exposing us to training camp, you're exposing 315 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: us to behind the scenes. You have all the access 316 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: of the NFL, right because you are the NFL. And 317 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: at the same time, we're supposed to learn from that, 318 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,479 Speaker 1: not necessarily see debate shows. 319 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: And stuff like that. 320 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: On the NFL network, right, but they still do lean 321 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: into entertainment, so history, the man's sounded like they were 322 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: a little even more heavy towards education than maybe even 323 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: the NFL Network was raising their hand for I don't know. 324 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: Here's a question, if you could add a conversation with 325 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: Goodell about improving the number of minority coaches, what kind 326 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: of questions would you ask as far as minority coaches. Look, 327 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: the league office has done pretty much all they can 328 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: as it relates to trying to level the playing field. 329 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: That's interesting. The problem here is ownership. 330 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: To owners decide that they want black faces to be 331 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: the face of their franchises, there's not much else the 332 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: league office can do. Man, I swear I've said that. 333 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: I swear I've thought that in the terms of like, yo, 334 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: the NFL is really on a try mission to get 335 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: some diversity on the sidelines. And I'm not talking about 336 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: the players who ain't playing. 337 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 2: And I was like, dog, people don't get that. But look, 338 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 2: I also talked to players. I was a player rep. 339 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: And players will go on air and complain about some 340 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: of the resources we didn't have, and I literally were like, 341 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: here's the hotline, here's the number here's the email to 342 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: exactly what you said, we don't have, but you haven't 343 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: taken the time to figure that out. 344 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 2: So it's just interesting. 345 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: Sometimes there's a huge divide between what's really happening and 346 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: what is really being said, and I don't like when 347 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: that gets out. 348 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 2: So that was interesting by him. 349 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: Here's another one in the NFL offering teams compiscatory draft 350 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: picks if they lose a minority staff member to a 351 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: head coach a general manager job. Is that a good idea? 352 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: I think it's shameful that you have to incentivize the 353 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: hiring of minority coaches. If you were to do blind 354 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: resumes with minority coaches and the non minority coaches and 355 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: ask people who are the most qualified in cearchain situations, 356 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: think you would find they would choose the resumes of 357 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: a minority coach. But unfortunately jobs aren't going to these 358 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: individuals WHOA. 359 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 2: I love that. 360 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: It is shameful that you got to be like, I 361 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 1: give you a popsicle if you hire you black coach, Like, oh, 362 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: it's just like, look, I don't have anything in common 363 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: with these coaches that are trying to go out there 364 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: except the same skin color, right, the same ethnicity, background, whatever, 365 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 1: but I don't have anything in common with them. But 366 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 1: I would say this is kind of sad, like it 367 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: would feel like dog. They take in my kind and 368 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: the only way that they're gonna accept it on the 369 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: sidelines as a head coach in the face is if 370 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: you give them a popsicle. In addition to the opportunity, 371 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: that does feel sad. I'm with Jim Trotter on that 372 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: here's something this was dope. Does this mean that nothing 373 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: more can be done to change the minds of owners. 374 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: I'm not in the business of changing hearts and minds. 375 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: All I asked is that you hire the most qualified 376 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: person round of applause, period, and it's not that hard 377 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: to see who's the most qualified or in certain situations, 378 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: As I wrote, Brandon Staley, that's the coach of my Chargers, 379 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 1: So this might hurt. Got a head coach in job 380 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 1: five years after leaving a small college football program and 381 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: only one year of coordinating. 382 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 2: The experience interesting. 383 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: Eric b Enemy been offensive coordinator for a team that's 384 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 1: gone to three of the last four Super Bowls, has 385 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: an MVP quarterback and a Super Bowl MVP quarterback. 386 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 2: So how is it that he can't get a job. 387 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 1: Ah wow, Now not going into the weeds of that 388 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: one on high level paper topic sentence, you know, summary. Yeah, 389 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: he has a tremendous point on the decline in state 390 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: of sports journalism. It's disappointing. There are a lot of 391 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: talented people who are out of work through no fault 392 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,199 Speaker 1: of their own. I pray that they land on their 393 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,439 Speaker 1: feet and they're in better situations going forward. It's sad, 394 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 1: but it's reflective of where the industry is going. Haha, 395 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: let's talk about that. Where the industry is going. Just 396 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: went to a conference where all those vcs and all 397 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: of those executives and tech gurus were saying, we're all 398 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: going to a place where everyone is a creator and 399 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 1: everything is a channel, like kind of how YouTube is, 400 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: but deluxe to the point where all you guys are creators. 401 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 2: Do you have Instagram? Do you have followers? Do you 402 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 2: have followers that are not just close family and friends? 403 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 2: You are now a creator? Even you know you think, 404 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 2: all right, and is it public? You're like sharing your world. 405 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: Let'll get a little Betsy finally get the summer assault 406 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 1: in gymnastics, and somebody else likes it that you don't know. 407 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: Welcome to the world, and you are part of this 408 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 1: process where everything as we know it traditionally linear is 409 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: being fractured. So now bigger and bigger and bigger names 410 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: are gonna be creators and creators. Now, ain't nobody gonna 411 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 1: be bigger than the mister beasts, but we all on 412 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: pursuit to try and be that dude. All right, So man, 413 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: this is interesting. Do you think the NFL is going 414 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: through all the measures necessary and has done enough to 415 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: address the diversity, equality and inclusion? Do you think Trotter's 416 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 1: contract not getting renewed was unfair and Goodell's fault. Let 417 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 1: me just say this about this whole situation in summation 418 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: that nothing's gonna be perfect, but we all see some 419 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: of the real huge obstacles and issues when it comes 420 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: to what we were just talking about with college athletes 421 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: not getting paid, and then a lot of times it 422 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: leans into a racial conversation sometimes necessarily, and then the 423 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: same thing on the sidelines with the NFL. However, let's 424 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: be careful because there is not equality on that football 425 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: field either. So that's when I always push back, like y'all, 426 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: y'all won't equality where on the field, it ain't that, 427 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: whether you want to say racially, it's not that fifty 428 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 1: some player, fifty percent of the players are black, seventy 429 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: some percent of color minority. Not equal on the sidelines 430 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 1: a whole different animal. Right, Well, how many head coaches 431 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: are black? 432 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 2: Now? Two? I don't know, crazy, right, But it's not 433 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 2: equal on the field. But that's okay. It's not equal 434 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 2: on the sideline. That's not okay. 435 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: Now, we gotta make those conversations equal, right, make them 436 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: have the same energy. Friday swagg Away gonna be either 437 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: this best selling book, gonna be these playing cards, or 438 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: it's gonna be this jersey straight out of Jersey. 439 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 2: Blah Ti Ti ton, Time for some action. Where is 440 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 2: that from? Y'all know what it is? Oh, got love 441 00:20:59,440 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 2: for you guys. 442 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: Also, you gotta go into the community section to the 443 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: comment exact. 444 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 2: Day in time. We are going over one hundred k ac. 445 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,479 Speaker 1: I said Monday, and I met next Monday, not today, 446 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: two twenty seven pm. Let's see what your guess is. 447 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: All right, let's not guess about this situation. Let's get 448 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: real definitive. By Mike Martz and his latest rent on 449 00:21:23,359 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson summer calling their racism. But in this world 450 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: today everything seems like racism. 451 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 2: College my daddy. 452 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: See this is why I always be like, man, y'all, 453 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: y'all mustn't talk to y'all parents or grandparents. 454 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 2: I don't know. 455 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,959 Speaker 1: Mama and daddy was at home. Boy, my daddy used 456 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: to pick cotton for a summer for a dollar. I like, Daddy, 457 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 1: a dollar. 458 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 2: I was like, that was just to get away and 459 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 2: not call it slavery because I'm like. 460 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: Oh, you pack all that kind for a whole summer. 461 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: You got a dollar. You're like, yeah, I got a dollar. 462 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: I was like a dollar a month, dollar week, dollar 463 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: a day. He was like, no, a dollar. I was like, Daddy, 464 00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: do you know He's like no, But it was only 465 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: a god dag whoa I mean real segregation. Like my 466 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 1: dad was like, no, you ain't going on that side 467 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,360 Speaker 1: of the street. But my dad was born nineteen forty seven, 468 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: grew up in Texas. All right, so let's talk about 469 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: this and see where we're going with it. So Mike Martz, 470 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: he had his recent analysis of Lamar Jackson the Great Quarterback, 471 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: but this is not the first time he went in 472 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: on Lamar Jackson with some harsh criticism. This time he 473 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: extended beyond being a non believer in Jackson with comments 474 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: that some suggests had that racially tense undertone. 475 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 2: What is that? 476 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:39,199 Speaker 1: I don't know how good Jackson is at processing things, 477 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: and that's the key. How quick can you process, read, 478 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,199 Speaker 1: and react. I don't know if he has that. Okay, 479 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: let me stop right here, because if that's all we're 480 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: gonna run with, let me just give you. 481 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 2: Some reflection, some reflection points. 482 00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 1: Not sure why that is racially charged that exclusively. 483 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 2: Now. 484 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: I know where people go with it, because they go 485 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: back to the past when that was said predominantly about 486 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: the black quarterback. But we're in the present right now, 487 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 1: and in the present you could say that about Lamar 488 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: Jackson if you want. But guess who they do say 489 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: it about as well. Carson Wentz, Baker Mayfield. Good lord. 490 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I know, I've said it five times and 491 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 1: it hurt it ten times. 492 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 2: Like yo. 493 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 1: The reason Carson Wentz take all them sacks and begin hurt. 494 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 1: He ain't processing it very well. Baker Mayfield, he ain't 495 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: processing it very well. So I understand the birth of 496 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: this was for the black quarterback in general, but specifically 497 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: now it's for any quarterback that can't process it. 498 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 2: That's the way I see it. 499 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: You guys tell me different or agree, all right, So 500 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 1: this sort of valuation of black quarterbacks, we know, suggests 501 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: the lack of intelligence to play the position that used 502 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: to be the dog whistle back in the day, right, 503 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: And that revealed the ignorance or even racist some of 504 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: a Scout coach executive. As we talked about march Is 505 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: seventy two, we know he want to Super Bowl with 506 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: the old one, sick witted rams and been out the 507 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: NFL for about a decade coaching in other leagues. So 508 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: it was talked about with Trey Lance as well, and 509 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: he was going against Justin Fields, both first round quarterbacks 510 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: and both black Right and Mars said to Lance, I 511 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: never liked him. I still don't like him. I've never 512 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: seen anything about this kid that was encouraging at all. 513 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: He looked like a fullback looking around a stumble trying 514 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: to run the ball. He's not a quick decision guy. Okay, 515 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: now about Fields, he said, I'm just shocked, shocked at 516 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,360 Speaker 1: the Bears. I don't know if I've ever seen such 517 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: a bad performance from a starting quarterback in his opening 518 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: performance of the season like that. 519 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 2: He was just completely awful quarterback that can't do anything 520 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 2: like that at all. All right, here's the thing. 521 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 1: Whoa how much has Trey Lance showed y' all to 522 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 1: fall in love with him yet? Anybody I don't know 523 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: about to see this is what's happening. It's death by 524 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: a thousand paper cuts. Like all right, Marx, you know 525 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 1: the history of the quarterback position. You know the history 526 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: of the black quarterback. You know what Lamar Jackson had 527 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: to go through just to get drafted, Like people were 528 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: telling him to switch and play running back, which is 529 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: another conversation. 530 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 2: Let's go down that road, right. 531 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: I remember playing with Matt Jones, y'all Remember who Matt 532 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: Jonns y'all remember Matt Jones, six foot six in the 533 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: playing receiver in the league for Jacksonville a few years, 534 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 1: sucking around a four four four three at six six two. 535 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 2: Ten like sick. 536 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: He was an athlete, but he was a quarterback in college. 537 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: Guess what they told him when he was coming out 538 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: the draft, Play receiver. 539 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 2: Guess what he. 540 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: Did, white quarterback, white quarterback, play receiver. So it's like 541 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 1: that Julian Edelman, right, same thing, et cetera. So it's like, 542 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: what we're getting lost in. 543 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 2: Is what used to be in how it is? 544 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: And Mike Martin sounded like, uh, used to be, guy, 545 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: not caring about it is, and still sounded like yoused 546 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: to be. 547 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,360 Speaker 2: But does that make it racially? Ten? Does that make 548 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 2: this racism? All right? 549 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: So we talked about all that, and it was funny 550 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: because of his criticism of fields and lance and we 551 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 1: all know that it was a money game that game 552 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 1: he was talking about, and they barely played in that game. 553 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 2: It was like, what are you talking about? 554 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: So it could be all coincidental for Mike Martz or 555 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: it could be intentional in terms of how he has 556 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: a little more scathing criticism and scouting of the black quarterback. 557 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: But demit, sucker. Coach Kurt Warner straight from the grocery store. 558 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 1: You coach Kurt Runer from the grocery store. And he 559 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: was he was Tilton ninety nine, two thousand, two thousand 560 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: one whatever. 561 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 2: He was Tilton. So I mean, when you're coming from 562 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 2: that vantage point, sometimes it comes down with a heavy hand, 563 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: all right. So I don't like the casual word racism. 564 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: I like it and respect situations when it is really 565 00:26:58,400 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 1: deemed necessary. 566 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 2: So y'all tell me, man of this situation. 567 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: You think Mars's Lamar Jackson comments are racist, you think 568 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: Mars and Trey Lance Justin Field comments a racist. 569 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 2: But let me tell you what I'm. 570 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 1: Thinking about it in general, because I'm going through this 571 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 1: right now as I've always went through it in my life, 572 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: but specifically with my foundation, I'm talking to adults the 573 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: youth about not taking ownership of negativity, especially when it's 574 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 1: there to group you, right, and I think a lot 575 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 1: of times groups do. 576 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 2: That, right. 577 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 1: You'll take the general stereotype about you when you're like dog, 578 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: that ain't me or that ain't we. 579 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 2: But that's what y'all are, right. Let me give you 580 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 2: some examples. 581 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 1: So for being black, you know, you hear a lot 582 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 1: of times people almost make it synonymous. Oh, we got 583 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 1: to help those poor kids. So then you got imagery 584 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: that comes with that, and you think black, even though 585 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: there's more white poor kids than black, but you think 586 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 1: black right hood. It's crazy because in my hood, my hood, 587 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: it was all when I grew up. But guess what 588 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 1: before I got there, who were there all white? And 589 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 1: guess what when I go back now, who's there all Mexicans. 590 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: It's like crazy, right, So it's like, don't own this stuff. Underprivileged, 591 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: underserved you think one group, nah, underprivileges, underprivilege, and let 592 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: me take you if you really want to go.

It's the fact that they 665 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: also they also know that's like, that's like going at 666 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady on the Patriots of the Bucks, Like be 667 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: careful in practice how you touch them right, Like this 668 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: is gonna be live on TV. 669 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 2: I want a debate. I want to debate. Yeay, yay. 670 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: And this is something that led bled into Shannon, like 671 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: they don't they don't discipline Skip over there, not yet 672 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: it ain't happening. 673 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 2: So you go in on Skip Skip don't like it 674 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 2: for whatever reason. 675 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 1: Oh that that gavel, Yeah yeah, that's your head right there, 676 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: so you may win these arguments in these battles, but 677 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna lose that war. That is an interesting point. 678 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 1: I think it's smart for him to have a revolving door. 679 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 1: Guess yeah, particularly ex athletes, some who are on more 680 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: regular than others, hope to see Wiley on there. 681 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 2: Now that ain't happening. 682 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: Man, we got two different like flavors, if you know 683 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. 684 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 2: I think he's a good fit. He's articulate, can debate 685 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 2: with the best of them. But can he talk hoops? 686 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: You gotta be a jack of all trades to do 687 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,719 Speaker 1: undisputed Can Richard Sherman talk hoops? I've not heard him 688 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: ever talk hoops, but look, that's how they pigeonhole you. 689 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: When I first got to Broadcast Network, I talked football, 690 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: third and goal, only talk third and goal. I was like, man, 691 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: first of all, I'm gonna talk about the club, I'm 692 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: gonna talk about the players, I'm gonna talk about the ladies, 693 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: and I ain't gonna talk about third and go.

Why 697 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 1: ask for equal pay if you are not bringing in 698 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: the revenue to deserve it. I just don't understand that 699 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: thinking whether it's from a female perspective or male perspective. 700 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: I'm not a Will Kine fan, but what ESPN did 701 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 1: was superfould.

Social media was not 827 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 3: thrilled with him though, all right, especially on Patriot fans 828 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 3: who were feeling a little spurned that he didn't pick them. 829 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 3: So he sent out a tweet which he has since deleted, 830 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:46,400 Speaker 3: saying to sports experts at an analyst like, you should 831 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 3: be mad at your management, not me. Okay, be mad 832 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 3: at your team, all right, But anyway, what do you 833 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 3: think of d hops moved and it was this a 834 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,840 Speaker 3: good choice for him? And then I have a follow 835 00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:59,719 Speaker 3: up after that about the Titans. 836 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 2: I like the move one. 837 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 1: We don't know what he was offered, so I wouldn't 838 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 1: even respond to people who were pushing back at me. 839 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:10,359 Speaker 2: I'm like, you don't know what they offered me, and 840 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 2: you don't look. 841 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: He may like the quarterback situation, but you don't know 842 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 1: what he's measuring. I do know that playing for Mike 843 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: Rabel my dog, my homie, we came out the same 844 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 1: year is an interesting challenge and a better proposition probably 845 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:27,400 Speaker 1: right now than playing for Bill Belichick. 846 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 2: That coaching staff is all over the place. 847 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,359 Speaker 1: They go out there without even having coordinators who call 848 00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 1: the plays. 849 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 2: I don't know. 850 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: Somebody will like, you know what I mean, And I 851 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 1: love me some Belichick. That's the goat of all coaches. 852 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 1: That said, Matt Jones and weird old coaching staffs, moves 853 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: and and I don't know what they offered, So I 854 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 1: like it there, Tennessee has been in the thick of things. 855 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,719 Speaker 1: Maybe this is a difference maker, but they you know, 856 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: they did this with Julio Jones, several other big receivers, 857 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: Andre Johnson right at the end. 858 00:41:58,440 --> 00:41:59,840 Speaker 2: Like it's kind of how they go. 859 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: It's like it's the last layover before final destination, which 860 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 1: is retirement. So hopefully it works out better for d 861 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,919 Speaker 1: Hop because he's still got more two past than that two. 862 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 863 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:12,919 Speaker 3: See, part of me was hoping, men, if we could 864 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 3: just see d Hop with a good quarterback again. I mean, man, 865 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 3: I would have loved to see him with Patrick Mahomes 866 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:22,400 Speaker 3: Jalen Hurtz, and that's what everyone was clamoring for. But 867 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 3: instead we got to settle for Ryan Tannehill, who I 868 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 3: don't know how much he's got left at this point. 869 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 3: He was a little hurt last year. But this leads 870 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,479 Speaker 3: me to the Titans. Okay, what are they doing? Because 871 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 3: I don't think anyone knows. It seemed like prior to 872 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 3: the season, you know, into the draft and everything, it 873 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 3: seemed like they were heading into a rebuild. They were 874 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 3: even considering offloading Derrick Henry and Ryan Tannehill for that matter. 875 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 3: But he's got an albatrosso of a contract. So now 876 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 3: they go out and sign d Hop, So what are 877 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 3: they doing? And then also, if you were willing to 878 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 3: pay that money, right, if you're willing to pay that 879 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 3: money the receiver, why didn't you sign AJ Brown long term? 880 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 3: You know, thank you by so thank you so much Titans. 881 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, why you know, well, Mark one one, you 882 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: gotta be uh, you gotta speculate and you gotta always 883 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 1: understand that there's more to it than you know. You 884 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: don't know how aj Brown was in Tennessee and people like, no, 885 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 1: he's amazing in Philly. 886 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,840 Speaker 2: I was like, you didn't answer the question how was 887 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 2: he in Tennessee? 888 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 1: Because it could have been a wake up call to 889 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 1: get traded out of there. And now all of a 890 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,120 Speaker 1: sudden he tight, you know what I mean, that's happened. Also, 891 00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 1: what he was asking for and then what he was 892 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,800 Speaker 1: asking for is too much for Tennessee, but it's fine 893 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,359 Speaker 1: for d Hop. You see what I'm saying, Like, we 894 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: don't make proper analogies. Most things that people actually make 895 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: analogies are not analogolous, right, They just they they actually 896 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 1: think they answered the question because. 897 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 2: They say, look, at him. Now, I was like, but 898 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 2: that ain't him, then, you know what I mean? 899 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 1: So I think that the hop basically said, look, the 900 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 1: team that won't me got Matt Jones at quarterback and 901 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill at quarterback. Which one would I want to 902 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 1: ride with? I would ride with Ryan Tannehill as well. 903 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: I would ride with Tennessee more than I would New England. 904 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,319 Speaker 1: And then if they're gonna offer comparable or more so, 905 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,680 Speaker 1: then everybody's like, oh, why ain't you pick New England? 906 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 2: Man? 907 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: Tom Brady, ain't there for like what you're talking about? 908 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,280 Speaker 1: You you're talking about New England. You talking about Old England. 909 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 1: I'm talking about New England. And so I just think 910 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 1: that we got to keep it leveling. 911 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 2: That what are they doing. They're doing what thirty one 912 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 2: other teams are doing. Gonna lose this year, one winner, 913 00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 2: rest of yaard look good, tried it got close, Oh 914 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 2: my god, almost like that's the game. Thirty one losers 915 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,879 Speaker 2: in different levels and one winner. So that's what they're 916 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 2: doing when everybody else is doing the other thirty. 917 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 3: So, I mean, do you think that they bridge the 918 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 3: gap with the Jags? Let's say, like, do you think 919 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,800 Speaker 3: they'll be competitive in a division, a possible playoff team again, 920 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,720 Speaker 3: because they kind of sort of fell off a little 921 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 3: bit last year. But they, I mean two years ago 922 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 3: they were a number one seed. Correct me if I'm wrong. 923 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,680 Speaker 3: So I mean, yeah, and they just re signed Jeffrey Simmons, 924 00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 3: who's a beast all right, defensive tackle. 925 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're boring me right now, because this is too 926 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 1: much NFL like x's and o's, like even even the 927 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,839 Speaker 1: NFL live right now. Oh man, I'm be sitting there. 928 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:27,960 Speaker 1: I'll be sitting there with with Trey Winger. I'll be 929 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 1: like boring all right, let's talk about something for real, 930 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 1: like because there's no real answer, so it's fun to 931 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 1: have this conjecture. The true, the tevy answer is yes, 932 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,839 Speaker 1: they closed the gap. The real answer is you know 933 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 1: what it is. I don't know, but here we go. 934 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 1: If Derrick Henry still got some juice because he is 935 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,439 Speaker 1: getting a lot of carries and everybody knows the game plan, 936 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: they gonna be something. If it's gonna go where Derrick 937 00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: Carrey takes them, because then that opens it up for Tannehill, 938 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:56,280 Speaker 1: then that opens it up for Hopkins, then that opens 939 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:57,280 Speaker 1: it up for the defense. 940 00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 2: So I hate to put. 941 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:02,319 Speaker 1: All this weight on King, But King Herry is for you, 942 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 1: simple as that. Other than that, close the gap? How 943 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: about this? This is another thing, man? Maybe this is 944 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,399 Speaker 1: interesting because I don't like the angles up to date 945 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 1: all that. 946 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 2: I like this. We don't have to get better. 947 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,359 Speaker 1: Maybe they ain't getting worse, you know what I mean, 948 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 1: Like if you look at Kansas City, you're like, maybe 949 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 1: they ain't worse. So people don't even think like this 950 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 1: in sports, but it's true. Do I gotta get faster 951 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,919 Speaker 1: or does he need to get slower? Sometimes both happen 952 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,440 Speaker 1: and I close the gap. Sometimes I stay still, he 953 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 1: comes to me. Sometimes he stays still, not pass him. 954 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be a lot a myriad of ways 955 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 1: this can go. But I know one way it could go, 956 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 1: and it could go immediately if Derrick Henry is still 957 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 1: King Henry. 958 00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 3: I'm with you on that. I like your answer, okay, 959 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 3: but you know I gotta speak on behalf the people. 960 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 3: So I'm just doing my thing over here. 961 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,360 Speaker 2: But yeah, right, that's all I got for you. 962 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:59,320 Speaker 1: That dude, my dog I appreciated Mikey p went to 963 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 1: NFL on me right there. 964 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 2: Nah, that's love. 965 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 1: I get it, and I'm with it and we all surprised. 966 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 1: And I think that's why we love sports as well, 967 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 1: is because before the game, players and fans, thank you, 968 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 1: Mikey pre looking at the technical directors here, we we 969 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:16,760 Speaker 1: got vacation technical directors. 970 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 2: Michael P. 971 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 1: Got on, Yeah, yeah, yeah, gotta slide out.

Then the game 981 00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,759 Speaker 1: then they kicked that ball off and immediately you know 982 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 1: you lost your money, right, hey, whooping, y'all ass, Same 983 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 1: thing happened with players, y'all.
