Speaker 1: Big week for me. A lot of gambling, uh, some

6
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: other stuff that I'm not gonna talk about here. You

7
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,160
Speaker 1: guys will read it or see about it soon online.

8
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: I haven't been able to respond to a lot of

9
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: questions recently, and um, I do believe I'll start to

10
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: be able to answer those very soon. That being said,

11
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: NFL cut Day always a tough one to read about.

12
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: I did note I'm not gonna go through all the

13
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: big cuts. You know, there was a couple that obviously

14
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: hurt mar Marlon Mack, who I advised my son to

15
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: pick up in fantasy. Not my son, I'm jeez, my

16
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: brother to pick up in fantasy because he had the

17
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: running back. Remember I advised him to get the Washington

18
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,559
Speaker 1: kid who ended up getting shot and now he's gonna

19
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: be out for a while. I told him, Oh, go

20
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: grab Marlon Mack. He's the backup. Marlon Max just got cut.

21
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 1: Jason struggle bus big time, but the big one NFL cuts,

22
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: and I'm only gonna do one because we have a

23
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: great guest coming up, Kevin Clark from the Ring or

24
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: you guys know him. He's been on the pod before.

25
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: The Dallas Cowboys cut Cooper, rushed their backup quarterback and

26
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: go into the season with one quarterback on the roster

27
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 1: and as of right now, one left tackle because Tyron

28
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: Smit's out. That ain't great. If you're a Dallas Cowboys fan,

29
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 1: you've got to be somewhat concerned, perhaps even larger than

30
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: somewhat like legit concern. DA's gonna have to sit in

31
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: the pocket and he could get destroyed back there with

32
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: a makeshift offensive line. Trouble in Dallas. Take a long

33
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: look at the Eagles, take a long look at the Giants.

34
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: Put plenty more on NFL gambling coming up before we

35
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: get to Kevin Clark. Last note, I saw this from

36
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: Mark Stein and m NBA reporter. He used to work

37
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: at ESPN. He then moved on to sub stack where

38
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: he writes like a twice a week, three times a week,

39
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: whatever it is. And Mark Stein had an interesting note

40
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: that Russell Westbrook and Patrick Beverley already been in contact

41
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: since becoming Lakers teammates, and new coach Darvin Am has

42
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 1: told him that there are lineups with Russ and Pat

43
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: Bev side by side. Now that is kind of sort

44
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: of fascinating. And I gotta say, I'm proud of Russell Westbrook.

45
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: He's all grown up, right, He's not taking this. Oh man,

46
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: they're trying to run me out of here? Really are they?

47
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: Or are they trying to get better? Maybe they're trying

48
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: to do both. I don't know. But for Russ to

49
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 1: react this way, assuming mark Stein's report is true, no

50
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 1: reason to believe it isn't. It's a sign of growth

51
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: for Russell Westbrook. Is it not the kids making Now?

52
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: He's not a kid any more. He's a grown man

53
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: with kids. Russell Westbrook is saying, you know what, I'm

54
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: gonna have to do whatever it takes to stick and stay.

55
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you guys at a maybe next week

56
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: about doing whatever it takes to stick and stay. Russell Westbrook,

57
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: you need we need to We need you to set screens, yes, sir.

58
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: We need to just stop shooting bad three pointers, Yes, sir,

59
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: we need to stop dominating the ball. And pounding the

60
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: ball into the into the court with fifty dribbles. Okay,

61
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: we used to play with Patrick Beverley, get along with him.

62
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,399
Speaker 1: I know you guys hate each other going back five, six,

63
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: seven years. Okay, I could do that. Saying it is

64
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: one thing. Can he actually follow up and deliver is another?

65
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: And we'll find out with Russell Westbrook and the Lakers.

66
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: By the way, I did a quick fun exercise where

67
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: I looked at the ten best teams in the NBA,

68
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: and while asking, do you think the Lakers are one

69
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: of the ten best teams in the NBA, think about

70
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 1: this for a second. Just think about this. Boston, Milwaukee, Philly,

71
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: and the Brooklyn Nets are better in the East. Undeniably,

72
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: so are the Lakers a top ten team in the NBA?

73
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: Four teams in the East are better in the West.

74
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: You can't tell me right now that the Lakers are

75
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: better than Phoenix Memphis. Memphis won fifty six games, by

76
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: the way, Golden State defending champs Dallas Denver that's five,

77
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: and the Clippers is six. I'm not even including the

78
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: timber Wolves who added Rudy Gobert. I'm not even including

79
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: the Pelicans, who have a healthy Zion and oh, by

80
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: the way, made the playoffs and pushed, yes, pushed. The

81
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: Suns are the Lakers? What are the ten best teams

82
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: in the NBA? When was the last time a lebron

83
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: led team was not one of the ten, five or

84
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: ten best teams in the league. I dare you to

85
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 1: find that. Hit me up on social media if you can.

86
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: But without further ado, let's get to our great guest,

87
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: Kevin Clark of The Ring or Talking Orlando Magic. No,

88
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 1: mostly in an NBA, mostly NFL, but a little bit

89
00:04:54,640 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: a little bit of NBA. Jason did think he knows

90
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: everything when it comes to sports. I know what sports

91
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: stands want, but for everything he doesn't. He knows a

92
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: guy who does. Let's just say I know a guy

93
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: who knows a guy who knows another guy. All right,

94
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: let's welcome into straight fire. A guy you know pretty well.

95
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: It covered the NFL for a long ass time. I

96
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 1: mean he's been around the block New York Times, No,

97
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal, Wall Street Journal, now with the Ringer

98
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: years at the Journal, No, No, No, ten years covering

99
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: the NFL. Oh ten years covering the NFL. Six years

100
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: of the journal. Jeez um, Well, six plus six is twelve,

101
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 1: isn't it. Kevin Well, I covered the NBA for two years.

102
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: Oh that's Orlando Magic fan, Kevin Clark, welcome in. I

103
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: thought we'd open with the uh, the Coole Anthony situation

104
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: in the backcourt with the Magic. I mean, listen, there's

105
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: a lot brewing that there was an injury to someone.

106
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: I mean it's Orlando. I already forgot who it was. Um, yeah,

107
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,159
Speaker 1: Gary Harris, who was something like four years ago. Um,

108
00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: how are your Magic looking before we get to the

109
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 1: NFL looking? Okay? I mean I think the Chet injury

110
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: kind of changes the entire narrative around the season. And

111
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 1: I think, and then I really wanted to see Chet succeed.

112
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: I wanted to see him play upsibility because I think,

113
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: quite frankly, the floor for him is elite rim defender,

114
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: even if he doesn't add that much weight, right, Um,

115
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: and so I wanted to see him all year. And

116
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: then now I think that it's gonna be kind of

117
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: the Bank Caro Show, Who's gonna win Rookie of the

118
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,119
Speaker 1: Year of bar some thing crazy? Um, So that changes

119
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: the narrative a little bit. You know, I just saw

120
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: something the Magic bands yesterday, We're like, oh, there's some

121
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: workout video of Jonathan Isaac. Yeah, I'm good on that.

122
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 1: I'm actually good. I'm actually good on that. But there's

123
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: a call yeah, Franz Wagner, right, Franz, Yeah, Frands. And

124
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 1: then I mean, if Jalan Stuggs can shoot, that changes

125
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: the narrative. So I'm intrigued to see it. I'm not

126
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: making the futures bets on on Eastern Conference champions the

127
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,479
Speaker 1: next two years, but I think there's something there that

128
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: I just looked this up. Jalen sug from Deep as

129
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 1: a rookie out. I just want to ask the Pala

130
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: bancro like summer beef with the kids from the Hawks, Like, honestly,

131
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: I'm curious. You're on the NFL grind, you're you know,

132
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: you're in Midwestern cities and and how did you take

133
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: this news on the road, Like were you just like shocked?

134
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: And with another NBA player? Um, I looked into it.

135
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: You know, I guess the Murray charge was that that

136
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 1: he's changed since he got to the NBA, which is

137
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: what five months ago? Yeah, yeah, you know it used

138
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: to be about the music. It's like, no, dude, like

139
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: this guy has been good for for his entire love people.

140
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: I'm sure that people in Palla Bancarro's life if no

141
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: one's going to the NBA for a long time. So

142
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: the idea that he's changed, I don't necessarily know about that.

143
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: Maybe he acted a little different a couple of years ago,

144
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know what time about Paula

145
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: ban Carroll's person life. Having said that, I thought it

146
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: was a genius move by Murray to to get in

147
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: the public eye over the summer um and and get

148
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: in to a situation where people are gonna care about Hawks,

149
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: magic games they play. They're in the good, same division

150
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: they're gonna play. Like if you're if you're someone like Murray,

151
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 1: what better way to get people texting about you? What

152
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 1: was that? Late July early August? Like I know, I

153
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: mean most of when I'm on the training camp tour,

154
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: I miss everything, and this is something more. But I'm

155
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: gonna say, but whenever someone like what there's big news,

156
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: like someone passes away and I don't know about it,

157
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: like a celebrity, right, I'll be like, how did that?

158
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: How did I miss that? It's always because it happened

159
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: in like August five and I was on like a

160
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: seven hour drive from from Atlanta to the Charlotte or something,

161
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: and so I can never I never can followed any

162
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,239
Speaker 1: any non NFL news the first week of training camp,

163
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: having said that, all my friends from home were texting

164
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: me about Murray Ban Carroll, all of this is this

165
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 1: is Orlando proper? Or are you more of like a

166
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: oh no, no, no, no for a lot of dales

167
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: down south. So I'm I'm the thing I LeBatard in

168
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 1: Those guys make fun of me sometimes for sometimes not

169
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 1: claiming but like being a Miami adjacent person because I

170
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: went to Versity Miami, and they say all the time,

171
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: I'm not a Miami guy, I'm not a Miami game.

172
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: I'm from Orlando. But I am from Orlando proper. So

173
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: like it's not a lot of closest the closest high

174
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: school to to the arena. Wow, every time I go

175
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,560
Speaker 1: to Orlando. You know, I got a bunch of relatives

176
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: down there. It is a very brown city, um and suburbs,

177
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: like everywhere, I don't see a ton of white people.

178
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: Now I'm going to like, you know, Indian jams as

179
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: I like to call them. Um. But Orlando that must

180
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: have been a different place, you know what, twenty years

181
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: ago when you were growing up. But the thing is

182
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: is that, uh, it's it's growing so fast that it

183
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: changes all the time. UM. And it's really interesting to see, um,

184
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: you know. And that's Florida in general, you know, I

185
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: mean I was, I was, which different neighborhoods, and it's

186
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 1: so amazing to see. As he said, the diversity of it. Um.

187
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 1: The amount of people who speak Spanish is really great.

188
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: I mean, one it's one thing that I actually regret

189
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: not learning to speak Spanish. I think most people will

190
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: grow up they actually in in Miami do um and

191
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: up doing it in a higher clips before in Orlando.

192
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: But it's amazing. I mean, it's different than uh South Florida.

193
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 1: It's more uh just having known what I know, it's

194
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,319
Speaker 1: the more of the Puerto Rican community in Orlando. UM,

195
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 1: where South Florida Cuban um, and then um, some of

196
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: the other South American countries. And it's really amazing to see,

197
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: you know. It's you know, it's the old line. Miami

198
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: is the capital of South America. UM. And I think

199
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: Orlando is even more i'd say diverse as far as

200
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 1: echoes because you're just you're seeing more and more people

201
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: come all the time from different places. It's really issuing place.

202
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: Como said super Bowl, I honestly, I don't know how

203
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: to say super Bowl in Spanish. Fox Sports Radio has

208
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: I read your great piece on Matt Lafloor. This is straight.

209
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: This is gonna be probably the most use I know

210
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: everybody's asking you about this as you do your podcast,

211
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: radio TV tour. I didn't even I never thought of

212
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 1: La Fleur as like a good looking guy. Um, I

213
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 1: know he's well managed, so I mean, I don't think

214
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,439
Speaker 1: of dudes is like good looking. I mean like Brad

215
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 1: Pitt obviously, you know, and some of these other actors.

216
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 1: But I don't think of like football coaches. You know, well,

217
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: I don't think of I didn't think of the Flur

218
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:23,840
Speaker 1: as a good like a football coach. You hear you

219
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: heard all the stories, maybe because it's pro and nobody cares.

220
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: You heard all the stories from Clip King for Texas techts. Oh,

221
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 1: there was a story in the Wall Street Journal about

222
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: how female students were going at a higher clip the

223
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: year he got there, right, And there was some data

224
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:41,680
Speaker 1: around that, right. Um. And there's like, uh, the blindside

225
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: of the book when they talked about how like the

226
00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: Mom's Love Nick Saban, I thought he was a handsome man.

227
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,839
Speaker 1: I think that's where you get the good looking thing

228
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 1: a lot. And it's funny because the guys who wanted

229
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: to talk about Matt being good looking at my story,

230
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: it was the guys who were roasting it. It was

231
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, it was Sean McVeagh, Sean mcveay. We talked

232
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: for two minutes half of it with him roasting Matt

233
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: mcfleur about his haircut and his eyes browsing and all

234
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 1: that stuff. And so I thought that was so, so,

235
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: so funny because I agree with you. For me, it's

236
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: it was never been down a story for the people

237
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: in his life, they love love roasting. Yeah. I also

238
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 1: didn't realize how accomplished he has been. And you're right,

239
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: he's never been within twenty votes of a Coach of

240
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: the Year. And and you kind of swayed me, like

241
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: I kind of like the guy. After reading your story, Kevin,

242
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 1: you have this strange ability because you read a lot

243
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: of positive stories. There's not a lot of negativity coming

244
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: out of the Clark camp. And you know, I read

245
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: this and I'm like, Jeesus, I guess I kind of

246
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 1: like the floor. Now. I never even thought about him.

247
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: He was irrelevant to me because Rogers is so damn good.

248
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 1: But I think he's gonna have to do some actual

249
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,199
Speaker 1: coaching this year, right, we can agree on that, Yeah,

250
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: I mean attention. Because you mentioned the positivity negativity thing.

251
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: I'd say the vast majority of my columns are negative.

252
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: And if I'm coming into a place and I'm talking

253
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 1: about opinion columns, but I'm going into a place and

254
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,199
Speaker 1: saying I'm gonna do the Jets this year, what the

255
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: hell is going on with the Jets? Normally, those strongly,

256
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: strongly worded opinions are going to be typically negative, and

257
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 1: it's going to be different. If I go in and

258
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 1: spend an hour with someone, it's typically not going to

259
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 1: because I think they suck at their job, you know.

260
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: And then that that I think is the difference. If

261
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 1: I'm writing seven thousand words on somebody there's gonna be

262
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: a case that there's gonna be something I'm building up

263
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: a little bit. I did borrow a couple of weeks

264
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 1: ago kind of a similar thing about his pre snap stuff.

265
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: And so I mean, I think that there's Um. I

266
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,559
Speaker 1: think that when I do these stories, it's normally because

267
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: I pick the factors to win the Super Bowl, and

268
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do I wouldn't do a story like this

269
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 1: unless I felt away like that, because you're building a

270
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,719
Speaker 1: case of something going forward. Um. Having said that, I mean,

271
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 1: I think he's I think that if it was so easy,

272
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 1: and I would say seventy of the of the UH

273
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: opinions yesterday were positive about the story You're Angry and

274
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: he saw angry Bears, Vikings, Lions and saying, well, it's

275
00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: obvious because they were like, you can't give La Flew

276
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: any credit. It's all Rogers and say, well, okay, I

277
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 1: I went back to like probably maybe a hundred people.

278
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it was pretty well traffic stories. Maybe a

279
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 1: hundred people out of that group, we're saying, you're a moron.

280
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: You don't know, you know, he eats all Rodgers, And

281
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 1: I was saying, I went back at two of him,

282
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: and I just said, hey, if winning thirteen games, which

283
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 1: the Flour has done every single year he's been a coach,

284
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: was so easy, was so easy? Why didn't Mike McCarthy

285
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: do it in the last seven years he was there?

286
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: And by the way, last night I was walking to

287
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: taking a little walk and I saw Cowboys fans started

288
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: to screen grab that, and I said, yeah, you guys

289
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: should look at that too, because Mike McCarthy can't win

290
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: thirteen games with a great quarterback. So, um, I listen.

291
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: I'm not saying the Flour is is Bill Belichick. I'm

292
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: not saying he's Andy Reid. I'm saying that for that

293
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: environment being there, you sort of get it and he's okay, Well,

294
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers has been unlocked. He's so talented. Were not

295
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: at first of all, not every coach could do that

296
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 1: with Darren Rodgers. Second of all, and there's a lot

297
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: of like coping and wishcasting about Rodgers was like, oh, well,

298
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: if you didn't feel this way, if he didn't treat

299
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: receivers like this or whatever, its well, he does, this

300
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: is how we operate. And so what the package it was?

301
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: They hired a coach who could be in a partnership

302
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: with them almost a little bit. And I made the

303
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: comparison in the story Jason almost a little bit mb

304
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: A sh almost her Ker. I mean, it was just

305
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: a lot of credit there for him. I mean no,

306
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: I just mean in terms of it's going to be

307
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 1: a player let. He wants the superstars to be Rogers Jr. Alexander,

308
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: Kenny Clark, those guys, right, Dante Adams when he was there.

309
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: He wants those guys to lead, and he wants those

310
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: guys to take the credit. That's why I felt there

311
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: was a little bit MBAs little player empowerment type stuff

312
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: because when he builds that playbook, there are probably Jason,

313
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 1: you know NFL coaches, you know football coaches. There are

314
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 1: a lot of coaches that will come and say, okay, Aaron,

315
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: you running my system. Here's what you're going to adapt to.

316
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: What Lafleur did, especially after the first year, was he

317
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: took the things that he loves, you play, action, motion,

318
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: all of that stuff, and he said, hey, Aaron, what

319
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: do you like? What do you not like? But also

320
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 1: what do we keep from McCarthy And that to me

321
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: when we asked her in the league, Sean Sean McVeigh

322
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: said this, Um, Michael Daniel said this in the story

323
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: around the League, those guys are most impressed that they

324
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: were he was able to blend his playbook with Aarons

325
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: and he was able to empower Aaron. I think it's

326
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: I think the easiest thing in the freaking world, j

327
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: Mac would be to lose Aaron Rodgers, right, like, just

328
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: for Aaron Rodgers to be totally out on you, and

329
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: it's never happened. Because of that, I would agree with

330
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 1: most of that. The only issue I have is do

331
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: you think Aaron Rodgers in this piece comes off as

332
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: trying too hard to be cool? Like I don't know

333
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: what happened, Like I like Lafleur in this in the story,

334
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: and I did listen to Summer Rodgers on Rogan. I

335
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: don't know, did you hear any of it or not?

336
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 1: I did? Yeah, I actually so. So this came out,

337
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: this story came out on Monday, and Rogan and Rogers

338
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: came out on Saturday, and all I wanted to do

339
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 1: same thing with Pardon my take was make sure that

340
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: none of the anecdotes in my story were in there.

341
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Same player was Unbusted with

342
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: the Boys last week too, and I did do the

343
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 1: same thing, just make sure like the stuff I had

344
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: it was exclusive, wasn't than any others. But yes, I

345
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 1: did listen to all of those podcasts, including he Just Again.

346
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: And I don't want to go in on Aaron Rodgers.

347
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: This guy is super successful, one of the best ever.

348
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: He just comes off as like trying too cool. I

349
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: don't know if it's awkward or is he trying too

350
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: hard to be cool in interviews. I don't be honest, no, no, no,

351
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: I don't think I then the thing that's trying to

352
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: be too cool. Um. I think that he is extremely

353
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 1: I here's what I think. But I'm not having spoken

354
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: him a hand full of times. Um. I think that

355
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 1: he is extremely careful and calculating about everything he says.

356
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 1: And so you can see the wheel spinning all the time.

357
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: And it's not like you and me right where we're

358
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 1: just gonna say listen, you and I know each other

359
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 1: for a long time. I'm gonna say whatever on this podcast.

360
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: You can say whatever to me. Like he's thinking about,

361
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: you know, a thousand yards downfield all the time. What

362
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: is this person gonna think? What does this person think

363
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,199
Speaker 1: that what is what's going to think? And I'll give

364
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: you I'll give you a great example. When I was

365
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: doing the piece. So the in the piece, I say

366
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: that the last question actked everybody was why does it

367
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: not get enough credit? And Rogers probably thought about it

368
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: for fifteen seconds. I mean, it was just that an

369
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 1: awkward is that an awkward silence wasn't awkward. It was

370
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: more just like, you know, just it wasn't awkward. It

371
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 1: was more just like, Okay, how do I exactly get this?

372
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 1: And then his answer ended up being for humor and

373
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: it was just to roast him more and and so, um,

374
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: I don't think, you know, I think there's probably an

375
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: element of and I don't think either of us can

376
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: figure it out here like he's so famous. I talked

377
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: to a quarterback, so I typically on this on this

378
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: camp tour, talked to pretty much any quarterback confliance. I

379
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 1: ended up talking to about eight of probably when we

380
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: can through the top quarterbacks in the NFL. And I

381
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 1: had one where this guy just would not get to

382
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: where I wanted to go, wasn't giving me anything right,

383
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 1: And um, at least on the topic I wanted to

384
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: I'm starting to a team with Fishal a little later,

385
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: and I was just like, he just really wouldn't go

386
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: there with me. And then guy was saying, listen, it's whatever.

387
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: The date is August four, right, this guy knows if

388
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 1: he gives you anything, it is on a higher on

389
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 1: on first take. The next day, he knows that, and

390
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: he knows that he wants to go this weekend and

391
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: say all right, well, you know, I just want to

392
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: go on the BoatUS weekend whatever. He doesn't have to

393
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: think about getting in that news cingle. And that to

394
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 1: me is an NFL quarterback. Now that's that's not Roger

395
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 1: than somebody else. But it's like that now, you know.

396
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 1: I mean, there are how many times do we see

397
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: you know, your show, um Colin, I mean how many

398
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,199
Speaker 1: times do we see one piece of one thing become

399
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 1: a full day story. And I think the quarterbacks are,

400
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 1: unfortunately for us, for our for for what we do,

401
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 1: are starting to just say okay, I don't want this there,

402
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: I don't want to say, I don't want to stare,

403
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: and they just just either not answer the question or

404
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 1: answering it and in clutiats. I do think I do

405
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 1: think that we've gotten to a point where a lot

406
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 1: of this younger generation of quarterbacks is way more open

407
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: and honest. Mahomes is like this, Josh Allen, It's like

408
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 1: this where they're just bros who will generally answer the question.

409
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 1: I think there was a there was a Tom Brady

410
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: kind of runoff, like he was not Ryan a little bit.

411
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 1: But these guys just don't want to do anything. They

412
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 1: just want to talk to the team. They don't want

413
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,400
Speaker 1: to you know, ever, give you a quote. I give

414
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,880
Speaker 1: me the younger generation. You look at Freakie Baker Mayfield,

415
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: who like will say anything right. We're seeing that today. Um.

416
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: But like, I think that there's a more honest generation.

417
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: I'm starting to worry that they're realizing why the generations

418
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,879
Speaker 1: above them weren't as honest. Yeah, do you think some

419
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: of that is? And again, I only I'm guessing Baker

420
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 1: Mayfield says something about week one, I played basketball or

421
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 1: in the morning and then took a nap um and

422
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: then I you know, I was reading your piece. Uh

423
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: So I didn't see what he said, but I'm assuming

424
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield said something incendiary about Cynthia Cynthia Freeland. Cynthia Freeland,

425
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: who's a Southern reporter on the Panthers games talked to

426
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 1: him and said that so this there's some consternation but

427
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 1: whether or not she should have reported this, but she did,

428
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 1: and I'm on her side on this one that she

429
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: just said, you know, Kayley for week one and he said,

430
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: We're gonna f and destroy them, or I'm gonna and

431
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: destroy them. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk

Speaker 1: We talked about Aaron Rodgers. I don't I know a

436
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 1: lot of people don't care about Baker Mayfield anymore. He

437
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: like led the league in commercials two or three years ago,

438
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 1: and now it's like Baker, He's gonna be a backup correction.

439
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask them up, I'm gonna f them up. Okay.

440
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 1: I wonder do you think and you and I both

441
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: know there are people in sports media who intentionally will

442
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,239
Speaker 1: come out and attack someone that it just comes out

443
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: of left field, like what is this guy doing and

444
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: he's doing it to get attention? Do you think Baker

445
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: is one of those guys? I just want attention. I

446
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: want people talking about me. I want to be in

447
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: the social media scrum. I need that to feed me.

448
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 1: I think it's a little bit of that. I think

449
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 1: I think the attention part of it. I think that

450
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 1: you also this is certainly how maybe it's the guy

451
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: who needs that to pump him up. We see fighters

452
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: all the time. It's you know, or I'm trying to

453
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: or ticket talk as they say, I'm just trying to

454
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,679
Speaker 1: sell tickets, um, something like that. I mean, like I

455
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: was just listening to a just listen to a race

456
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 1: car podcast couple of weeks ago. I mean, there are

457
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:11,679
Speaker 1: these two guys are talking about they used to hit

458
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 1: each other all the time, and afterwards someone say, what

459
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 1: the hell are you guys doing? They say, we're just

460
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: selling T shirts, and it's like that's it, right, Like

461
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 1: sometimes you gotta push it in order to to sell

462
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: the T shirts in order to get people new Baker Mayfield.

463
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: He's not going to be talked about this year at

464
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: all at all. The Panthers. No, I'm saying that the

465
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 1: Panthers are I have a ceiling on them. And the

466
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 1: only way that you're going to get attention in Carolina

467
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 1: is either tearing it up in the field, which may happen.

468
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's some some there's some people

469
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: in Cleveland's orbit who think he was much more banged

470
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: up than we thought. Even with him he wasn't just

471
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: a shoulder with the foot. If he's healthy, he could

472
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 1: be pretty good. But I think in order to get

473
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: the spotlight on him, he's kind of got to talk

474
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 1: like this. He's kind of got to say, here we go.

475
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: He's kind of got to light it up in week one,

476
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: and he does have to f thing f them up

477
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: in week one. Yeah, otherwise the entire national maybe it's

478
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 1: gonna move on and you can't get two years forty

479
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,640
Speaker 1: next year. Yeah, it looks like they have one primetime game,

480
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,399
Speaker 1: and I believe it is a Thursday night clunker against

481
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: the Falcons. So not so zero out. All right, let's

482
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: quickly buzz around the league. I'm gonna ask you random,

483
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 1: random ship and you know, just handle it. However, you

484
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 1: want better team right now in the NFC East Eagles

485
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: or Cowboys Eagles, better roster, better roster, uh, less of

486
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: an absolute tire fire. Um the tients Deviner is a

487
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 1: disaster shows you just before playing and it goes on

488
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 1: right now. Dak Prescott is an incredible quarterback. They don't

489
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: have they don't have the capability to uh protect him,

490
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: and they don't have the cap I mean, like, I

491
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,040
Speaker 1: just hate that roster. I love Dak Prescott. I hate

492
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: that roster. I hate hate the wrong word like McCarthy

493
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: is not gonna make anything better than some of its parts. Um,

494
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: Eagles better roster all day. And they traded for Chauncey

495
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,959
Speaker 1: Gardner today, which I saw that. Yes, yeah, Um, Jets

496
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: go three and oh in the a f C East

497
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: in the preseason. Um something nothing go ahead, to be honest,

498
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 1: absolutely nothing, nothing nothing. You don't even want to lab

499
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,119
Speaker 1: right on the Jets. I mean, by the way, I

500
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 1: want on Zack Wilson, any word on Zach Wilson's He

501
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: was riding a bike over the weekend. And Jets fans

502
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,440
Speaker 1: are optimistic for week two now, well, okay, I mean, no,

503
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 1: it's not as bad as we feared. We saw that.

504
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: And I talked to Michael Flour and Zach excuse me,

505
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 1: and Robert Sala for this. Uh, this is the Flour story. Hum.

506
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 1: They you know, they seemed in good in good spirit.

507
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: I think they're managing. I think that's just the pressure

508
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: is on. I mean, how long can this Jets rebuild take?

509
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 1: I mean how long did Joe doug has been for

510
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: a few years. I think Mike mccagnan getting an extra

511
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 1: year of drafting was one of the worst decisions by

512
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: an ownership group ever, literally ever, because it set them

513
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: back a full year, and then it gets the fan

514
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: base more ants because they're not they don't remember that.

515
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 1: Bekind they got an extra year of drafts in here

516
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 1: saying wait, Joe was hired in what year? There's checking Wikipedia.

517
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: I just think the whole thing. I am optimistic because

518
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: I do think that there's a lot of potential there.

519
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 1: I think Dougs is really smart. I think got really

520
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 1: great value. I think you see that when something like

521
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: the Jamal Adams trade happens. But I just keep looking

522
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: at that roster and saying, Okay, I'm I'm still gonna

523
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 1: be patient, but like wet, we gotta we gotta get there.

524
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 1: I mean, for me, I there's two ways to judge

525
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,719
Speaker 1: gms right. One of them is the decisions that they

526
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,919
Speaker 1: make and the value that they lean. And Joe Douglas

527
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 1: has done a great job with that one of them

528
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: is just the three in front of me. I did

529
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 1: a thing a couple of days weeks ago, we did

530
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,640
Speaker 1: top GMS, and I before we did it, I texted

531
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: like ten people in the league and I said, how

532
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: do you judge GM? How do you judge a GM?

533
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: And one guy said to me, he said, well, first

534
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 1: of all, I only look at first round picks because

535
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: everything else's luck. Everything else is luck. And I thought

536
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 1: that was interestly, what to put if you get a

537
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 1: if you get a Russell Wilson in the third round, well, like,

538
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,479
Speaker 1: that's only because the Eagles passed on them, and then

539
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 1: you know, and the Chiefs pats on that kind of thing. Um.

540
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: But then most people say, I don't care about anything,

541
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: but what's something to do? Three right now? And right

542
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: now with the Jets. That's not good enough, it's not great, Okay, Um,

543
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 1: how do I don't want to frame this that poorly,

544
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: But the forty Niners retaining Jimmy Garoppolo is a lack

545
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: of confidence, is a signal that they don't have that

546
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: much confidence in Trey lance. The way that when Alex

547
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 1: Smith was with the Chiefs and they had Pat Mahomes

548
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,239
Speaker 1: and they watched him for a year. They're like, this

549
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: is our dude. Next year, no matter what the hell

550
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,240
Speaker 1: Alex Smith does. Boom. It feels like that the forty

551
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: niners are not there yet. With tray Lance, it's correct confirmed.

552
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: I mean like the actions speak louder than words. And

553
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: you know when when when yeah, I know bred Farb

554
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: was retiring five times without that they tried to keep

555
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: him on his Aaron Robin's backup. Okay, Um, Alex Smith

556
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 1: thing is is exactly right. Um. I do think that

557
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: the fact that there was an injury and the fact

558
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: that that was time so poorly, I do think that

559
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 1: is there's some excuse making there. But if they really

560
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: believe in tray Lance, they would want him to grow

561
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,919
Speaker 1: upolow out of the building, because what happens if he

562
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: has an absolute stink bomb for the first two weeks

563
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: of the season. Kyle Shanahan with the roster that should

564
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: be in Super Bowl contention, are you kidding me? Like

565
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 1: Bears in week one they'll smash but there's two Okay,

566
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: but there's But that doesn't mean that the trail Lan

567
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: test look good. It's just the preseason. They let me

568
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 1: tell you something, if they win and Trey Lance looks bad,

569
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 1: it might look more likely to go to Jimmy Brock

570
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: because he was saying, man, we're just getting back with

571
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: this kin of our teess. We could win something this year.

572
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: Brutal um. Detroit Lions are do you if they made

573
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: the playoffs? Is that the story in the NFL this year?

574
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,400
Speaker 1: It is? I was there a couple of weeks ago.

575
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: They swear they like Jared Golf, but not I'm not

576
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 1: not He's not gonna be no, no, no, no, he's not.

577
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: Might like his girlfriend. They might like his girlfriend, Um,

578
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: but I don't think that. Let ma explaine it keeps

579
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 1: them from being like a low grade version of the Colts.

580
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: This is the way that somebody explained it to me,

581
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 1: which is that they can roll him over for this year,

582
00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 1: next year until they get their guy. They don't want

583
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: to do anything but take a top pick and say

584
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,639
Speaker 1: this is our guy forever. We're rolling with them, right.

585
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 1: So if they their cost, they've got Jared Golf cost control.

586
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: He didn't enough enough nice things after the fire Anthony Land,

587
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,360
Speaker 1: but they said they can have it. So they're still

588
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 1: figuring out the quarter act position. So it would be

589
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: obviously the story of the NFL. UM if if that

590
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: was that was a playoff team. I don't think it

591
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 1: is yet. I think they have to answer the quarterback position. Um.

592
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: And once it happens, that'll be fine. But I think

593
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: putting quarterback last in a rebuild is always intriguing to me.

594
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: And I'm excited to see where they go with it

595
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 1: because I do think they like the talent that roster.

596
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 1: It's just a matter of do they roll it with c. J. Stroud,

597
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 1: Bryce Young, Will Levice, Tyler Van Dyke next year or

598
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 1: you have to throw in the Miami guy in there. Dude.

599
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: I I just th slow Newsday was a college analyst, um,

600
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 1: and he mentioned Tyler van Dyke second after Will Levis.

601
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: Actually I've been, um, I who's at Desmond Howard? I mean,

602
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: did you see the playoffs that he had? He had

603
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 1: like Pitt in the playoff or something. I mean, it's

604
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: insane anyway, Sorry, go ahead, so I can do I

605
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: can do a sec football talk with you all. No, no, no,

606
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: but we' running out of time. Come on, UM, I

607
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 1: do want to get two more. Go ahead, no, finish.

608
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: The Lions are interesting to me. Golf is not good

609
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: enough to get that team to ten wins. Yeah, not happening.

610
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: Um so Trevor Lawrence, I'm I'm going to Vegas this week.

611
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 1: I would like to bet Trevor Lawrence mostly improved player

612
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: and the Jaguars is at a smart bet, dumb beet,

613
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: am I just I just like it's a great I

614
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 1: think I think two for teams, the Dolphins and the

615
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: Jaguars are going to improve immediately with their offensive coaching staffs.

616
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:50,959
Speaker 1: I mean, Urban Meyer was the worst kind of fel

617
00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: coach maybe in our lifetime. Like think about that. Okay,

618
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 1: I know who's your colleague now and all that stuff.

619
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: We love him, we love him in the college football

620
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 1: role there, but we did not love to has head

621
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: coach of the Jacksonall Jaguars. And so I don't, I don't.

622
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: I don't know where this goes, but I do know

623
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: trefor Lawrence gonna be really good. And he even who

624
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: watched the tapes that he was top fifteen last year

625
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,920
Speaker 1: in spite of all that he didn't have the receivers.

626
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 1: You know, I think he was second in the NFL

627
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: and a stat called uh like perfectly throwing balls into

628
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: coverage or something like basically I didn't even remember what

629
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 1: it was. Basically like you're throwing these balls, but nobody

630
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: was hoping, so it was just like there was nothing

631
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: he could do right there. Pf have had something on that.

632
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 1: So yes, I also like, you know, the I think

633
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,560
Speaker 1: the Dolphins will get better. I think trempor lawrences, um,

634
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: but I do think the Dolphins get better as well.

635
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: All right, we'll wrap up with Bill Belichick and the Patriots.

636
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: I smell a disaster and I asked Seth Wickersham this

637
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: last week because he wrote the big Spygate piece and

638
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 1: and Kevin, if you want some crazy reading, go back

639
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: and read his like two thousand and fourteen piece on

640
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: Spygate ESPN the magazine Insanity, and it all points to

641
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: basically Belichick cheating and bending the rules. So Brady leaves,

642
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: Belichick freaks out, spends all this money, They make the playoffs,

643
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: but lose. They get lose by fifty to Buffalo, and

644
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: now it's looking like they could be a tire fire.

645
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: Like Peter King's calling for seven wins. I will go

646
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: under that. I was like six, when do we start

647
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 1: wondering about Belichick? And I know he's the greatest coach ever,

648
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 1: but let's be real, Belichick zero playoff wins since Brady left.

649
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: There's a chance he's getting old that he may never

650
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 1: win another playoff game. Over under one and a half

651
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: playoff wins for Belichick the rest of his career. I

652
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 1: saw somebody at say that you asked it on every day,

653
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: you said one and a half one a half the

654
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: rest of his career because he got a coach seven

655
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 1: more years, six times. I'm gonna I'm gonna go under, um.

656
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,800
Speaker 1: And the reason I'm gonna go under is I think

657
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a couple of years until those team

658
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: is ready to go. And kind of what I was saying,

659
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick is a much better coach on balance than

660
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 1: than Baffle fleur. Right. But but Matt mcfleur, as I said,

661
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: is the perfect coach for the factors. Bill Belichick is

662
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 1: not the perfect coach for the Patriots. He will not

663
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: be the perfect coach with England Patriots. He was the

664
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 1: perfect coach for a hell of a lot of Patriots teams,

665
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 1: who would be the perfect coach for basically almost any

666
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 1: franchise in the history of football. But I think right

667
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: now I'm getting extremely worried this offensive thing, like the

668
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: whole thing that was maximizing quarterbacks, getting the staff in place,

669
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: getting the line together, getting the weapons together, and going

670
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 1: from there. And it seems like a mac Jones second year.

671
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 1: They're kind of failing him. Dude, Like, I just this

672
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: is so uncharacteristic of Belichick. Either I'm thinking he just

673
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 1: wants to call place and just let let himself cook

674
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: and this man Patricia Joe judge things cover or he

675
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: just really kind of lost it. See brother oh man,

676
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 1: all right, it's Kevin Clark here. Somehow his wife convinced

677
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: him to move in the middle of football seasons. Just

678
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 1: the road just nevertheless, the two my wife's not here

679
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: right now. Like I said, the two biggest arguments I've

680
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: ever had in with my wife both involved moves. It

681
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 1: is a nightmare. It's not fun. I would stretch it

682
00:32:57,680 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: out as long as possible if I were you, like

683
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 1: a week long. Maybe just a couple of items today,

684
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: a couple tomorrow. That sounds good. That's the game plan,

685
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I think so hopefully that's what That's what

686
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: I've learned. And Ken, wait a second, you just said

687
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: I shouldn't move during football season. Now you want me

688
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: to take an entire week. Well, that's the other problem.

689
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: I don't mean it wouldn't be off it on one

690
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 1: day on a Friday. Yeah, what by the way, he's

691
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: doing it late in the season. I'm sure somebody's gonna

692
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 1: get fired that week and it's just gonna be all

693
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 1: hell's breaking loose. Also, Kevin does Slow Newsday, a pretty

694
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 1: funny thing on the internet. I have not appeared on

695
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 1: it yet. I've not been asked to. Maybe one day

696
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: when big enough deal. Kevin has much bigger people than

697
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: me on that. You had, um, who did you have

698
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 1: on there? Recently? That was huge? We had the way

699
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: of Russell Wilson the Super Bowls. We had Russell Wilson.

700
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 1: But the thing was recircling today was Joe Montana who

701
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: came on the Super Bowl and just killed trail lines

702
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: killed him and so and everybody got really mad. And

703
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 1: so last year the Super Bowl, Joe Montana said, do

704
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: not uh, the Niners can't go with with Trey Lance

705
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 1: next year, it has to be Jimmy. I talked to

706
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: the players trades not ready and I got murdered, wow

707
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 1: for even airing this. And so I recirculated today and

708
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,040
Speaker 1: it was Montana ticked off when you did it, or

709
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: he knew what he was doing. Oh, no, he knew

710
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: what he was doing. He was because he was in

711
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 1: the Steve Young Bill Walsh trio. Yeah, no, no, Joe,

712
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: Joe knew what he was doing. He I randomly. It

713
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 1: was like at the end of the area. I was like,

714
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,840
Speaker 1: by the way, how would you fix the Niners? And

715
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 1: he was like, well, you just bring Jimmy Garoppolo back.

716
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,800
Speaker 1: And I was like, okay, cool man. It's funny because

717
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:39,879
Speaker 1: everybody because I kind of look off camera and I

718
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 1: was looking at my colleagues who all like our super

719
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,920
Speaker 1: pro Jimmy or super pro Tray, and I'm just like,

720
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: you hear this guy. It was so funny. Dude, that's good.

721
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: Yeah it listen, it's good. He's a winner. Kevin Clark, Man,

722
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,359
Speaker 1: I'll talk to you soon. Enjoy your football. I'll see you, man,
