I started out my morning 10 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: by being flipped off by a driver double birds, and 11 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: I was thinking, okay, the car was in front of 12 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: me at the light. The light was green. One second, 13 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 1: two seconds, three seconds, double bird And I thought, you 14 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: know what, this is a teaching moment here. Maybe maybe 15 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: this is something that, with the help of Elon Musk, 16 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: maybe I can contribute something to society today. It's rare, 17 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: but maybe how about can you make a horn on 18 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: your car that is a polite horn, as if to say, hey, 19 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: green light, excuse me, yeah, excuse me, exqueeze me, exqueeze me. 20 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: So instead of the it's a hey, that's that's all 21 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: because I thought, you know what, I didn't mean. I 22 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: wasn't blasting on the horn, but you know, you start 23 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: your day. Then I spilled my Starbucks coffee on me. 24 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: That's how I started my day. But every day it's 25 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: the super Bowl in here, and I have to come 26 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: in and I have to, you know, plow forward, move forward, 27 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: can't you know? Dwell on the past. But I thought, okay, 28 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: it's my mistake with the coffee. And I got double 29 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 1: burded by somebody this morning, and I thought, okay, maybe 30 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: just a polite horn. You can have the regular one, 31 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: or you could have just a really nice one, just 32 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: to say, hey, Jimmy Lipper. Green light, yeah da, we 33 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: have some questions on horn etiquette at the journalist. I'd 34 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: like to ask you, okay, the cars in front of 35 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: you with the green light, yeah, you're the second position. Yes, 36 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: the car pauses. How many seconds were you? I even 37 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: counted three seconds? Okay. And during the morning commute people 38 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: are in a hurry, which is fair. Now did you 39 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: one pump the horn? Did you two pump the horn? 40 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: Or did you pump and hold the horn? No? No, 41 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: no, no no, no, pump and hold. It was just a 42 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 1: like but it sounded low. Well tap tap, yes, that's 43 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: that is standard procedure acceptable because if you hold the horn, 44 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: it has a more much more aggressive note. It was 45 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: the volume. See that's the problem. I think when you 46 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: hear the horn, you're like okay, or it's a you're 47 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: like okay, and I I'd like to come up with, hey, okay. 48 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: One more question. The person who double burded you, what 49 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: cup of car was it? Did it look like a 50 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: big person man or woman? It was a man, and 51 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: uh he was in a look like a SUV type. 52 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. Nothing aggressive left kit, no big wing, 53 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 1: no, no no, no, nothing like that. Because then I wouldn't 54 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: have hit the horn right, I would have. I would 55 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: have gone out, got out of my car and gone 56 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: up and say, excuse me, it's a green light. Maybe 57 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: you need to go through that. Yes, yes, time, but 58 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 1: you're at the road rage tide. You didn't feel the 59 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: need to pull up next to him. Whatever. You don't 60 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: know what people are carrying, you hit these horrible stories. 61 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: People are shooting each other because they're all angry on 62 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: the road. You kind of kind of just you know, 63 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: why he gave me the double bird. I'm gonna put 64 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: my life on the line over this cycle that I 65 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: actually laughed when I got the double bird, I thought, 66 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: oh okay, and then I thought, you know what, you know, 67 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: if I could have done it in a more polite way, 68 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 1: I would have done it. So this gentleman took both 69 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,119 Speaker 1: hands off the wheel, went over the shoulder, double bird 70 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: Why he wasn't moving, wow, So he double birded me 71 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: and and I could see it through the rear view 72 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: you know, you know his back window that he was 73 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: double birding me. And then I thought, okay, that's all right, 74 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: And I thought maybe maybe I could come up with 75 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: a horn and if he's listening right now, hey, you 76 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: know I was the guy behind you and I'm trying 77 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: to be better and you need to be better as well. 78 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: And when the lightest green, that's what I wanted to do. 79 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: So you're suggesting on the new car is for twenty 80 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: twenty three, have it incress a horn choice and a 81 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: polite horn choice. Yeah, maybe just something on the I 82 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: don't know, you can get some of these fancy car designers. 83 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: Maybe I'll talk to Mercedes see if they have a 84 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 1: polite I'll even be the voice move please excuse me, 85 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: that's all. Yes. The worst thing though, is if it's 86 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: a long red light then the person in front of 87 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: you is distracted, and finally they turn and you're stuck 88 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: at the red light there at yellow. All of a 89 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 1: sudden they're making up the slow turn and they're stuck 90 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 1: there for another ten minutes. I once had a situation. 91 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: This is pretty very of odd minute. Since you're a media, 92 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: you know when it says no turn on red, you're 93 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: not supposed to turn on red. I think that's why 94 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: they put that up there. And I was sitting there 95 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: once and there's a guy behind me and he's beeping 96 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: at me, like five bump bump bump, and I look 97 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: up and I point to the no turn on red 98 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: sign and he's going burmp purmp pump. So I put 99 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: my car in park and I just sat there and 100 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: there's no way for him around me. And I had 101 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: all the time in the world. I had a leisurely 102 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 1: afternoon planned. It made him way way more upset. Yes, 103 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: don Speaking of traffic, do you ever feel in need. 104 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: I've done this and I've got some bad results. Do 105 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: you ever block that side lane where people try to 106 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 1: cut you. You're in the right land and you're trying 107 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: to get off the exit, and everyone's just going to 108 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: that little right the area where you're only supposed to 109 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: if you're breaking down. Do you do that? I have 110 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,119 Speaker 1: done that. I think I've navigated. So I'm like half 111 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: blocking it because I'm sick of all these people cutting 112 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: me and making it take another fl just to get 113 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: off the exit, which is literally four hundred feet in 114 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 1: front of you. I've done it. I've tried to get 115 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: off when I know that the exit is there, and 116 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: you know, have that whatever the emergency lane there. I've 117 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: tried to do that. And then there's always the guy 118 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: who starts to creep over a little bit, and then 119 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: you just stop and then you have to wait for 120 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: them to move, and then you get off the exit. 121 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 1: But we're getting off track. This is just about a 122 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: polite horn. It's a good story. It's a polite horn, 123 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: double bird. Maybe it's gonna when somebody says, how did 124 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: you come up with the polite horn?

Okay, Paul, I'm 169 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: gonna guess he's the Hall of Famer Troy Aikman in studio. 170 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman, we'll be joining us a studio on Thursday 171 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: the tenth.

Okay, So, Dak Prescott 173 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: is already going to join us a lot of cowboys. 174 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: Prescott's Friday of the eleventh, Aikman's Thursday the tenth, But 175 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: this is Tuesday the eighth. Jerry Jones, great guests, but 176 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: no Stephen Jones. I think you guys know, and you're 177 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: just giving me a hard time. Is it someone that's 178 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 1: been on the show before and we've loved having him on, 179 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: and then we will hotbroken to find out that we 180 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: couldn't have him. Dion Sanders Jon Sanders will be a 181 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: guest on our show. Also not him, Okay, yeah, the 182 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: playmaker Michael Irv there you go. Okay, we love Mike. 183 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: He's going to be with us in the second show. 184 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: He's gonna bring some energy, sure, I will all all right. 185 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: There was a lot of drama surrounding Jim Harball the 186 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: past couple of weeks, and then it was reported that 187 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: he would entertain NFL offers. Then he went to Minnesota 188 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: interview yesterday, National Signing Day. Of course, um, this came 189 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: out this morning a couple of minutes ago. Tom Peliero 190 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 1: from the NFL Network, who has done a great job, 191 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: very underrated. The Vikings met with Jim Harball for nine 192 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: hours yesterday, but the team didn't make an offer, per source, 193 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 1: So Harball returns to ann Arbor. Kevin O'Connell, who's with 194 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: the Rams, is expected to head to Minnesota to be 195 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: their next head coach. And I wasn't or if Harball 196 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: decided to pass on the job. Now we're getting the 197 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: information that I think the Vikings passed on Jim Harball. 198 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: And also there were other reports that Harball went in 199 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: thinking that it was almost like the Vikings had to 200 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: pitch him. Now I don't have any information on this. 201 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: I don't want to talk out of school, but there 202 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 1: are reports that that's what happened. He went in and thought, 203 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: this is slam dunk. I'm gonna get this job. Come 204 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: on ahead and talk to me. Say nice things about 205 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 1: me and I'll be your head coach. And they probably 206 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: went in and went up, all right, Jim, what would 207 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: you do for us? What kind of changes would you make? 208 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: And I think Jim Harball probably thought, oh, okay, I 209 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: gotta win this job here nine hours and then you 210 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: get on your plane, you go back home, and he 211 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 1: act as if nothing ever happened. It's like Ann Arberg goes, Jim, 212 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: where are you been not doing much? You know, well, 213 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: you know, I need a little me time and went 214 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: to Minneapolis. Oh okay this time of the year. Yeah yeah, yeah, 215 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: but hey, I'm all in. And then you know, when 216 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: a coach signs with a school, they put out a 217 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: big presentation like year one of us and Twitter has 218 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:21,319 Speaker 1: their little moment there, pictures there, and Michigan made it 219 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: seem like Jim Harball was joining Michigan as a new hire. 220 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: It's like go blue. It's like, oh, I liken it. 221 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: I call it jet blue. He was on the jet 222 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: and he was leaving Michigan. It's like, I'm jetting blue 223 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: over to Minnesota. Be purple. But Harball, like Harball, has 224 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: had four ten win seasons and they went to the 225 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: final four this year. He beat Ohio State, and you know, 226 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 1: he was one of the Big ten's lowest paid coaches 227 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: last season. But here's the thing, and I think people 228 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: look at this and say, well, Jim's earned the right 229 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: to go talk to an NFL team, and I guess 230 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: he has. I mean, it's really between him and the 231 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: athletic director or president or chancellor at Michigan. But Jim 232 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: got his pay cut because he wasn't performing up to 233 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: the standards that they thought he should be for what 234 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: he was getting paid. And then he has a great 235 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: year and now all of a sudden, you know, Michigan 236 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: stayed with him. They could have fired him. They stayed 237 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: with him, took a pay cut, all right, prove yourself again, 238 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: and he did. He had a wonderful year. But it's 239 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: not like boy, Michigan created this because they cut his pay. Well, 240 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: they could have fired him if they wanted to. But also, 241 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: I still believe if the Dolphins weren't involved with what 242 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: they're involved in right now, that Stephen Ross would probably 243 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: hire Jim Harbell. I truly believe that. But if you're 244 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: looking at the timing of this, it's horrible, and with 245 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: what's going on with the Dolphins, and Stephen Ross says 246 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: that he promises to cooperate with the league. What if 247 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: he said, no, I'm not going to cooperate. Of course 248 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: he's going to cooperate. He's going to defend the integrity 249 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: of the Miami Dolphins and himself. We'll have more on 250 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: this after the break because I have a couple other things, 251 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 1: and I know it's a sensitive subject that Brian Flores 252 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: and what he's accusing these teams of, But I want 253 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: to ask you a couple of questions you the audience 254 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: when we come back about this in fairness too, the 255 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: giants and interviewing and really all teams, all parties and 256 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: really all business. But it feels like what's going on 257 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 1: with Miami and incentivizing somebody to lose, I mean that 258 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: they could be Stephen Ross could be guilty of sports 259 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: bribery because if there's money involved here and you're saying 260 00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: I want you to lose, you're fixing games. And I 261 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: think that is what worries the NFL more than anything, 262 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: because billions of dollars. You know, they'll settle a lawsuit 263 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: maybe with Brian Flores out of court. I don't think 264 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: it would ever get to court. But you know you 265 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: have an owner who's fixing games or wants you to 266 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: lose games on purpose. That's a bigger issue for the NFL. 267 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: And by the way, next week the commissioner speaks, he 268 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: has his State of the Union. Like he has to 269 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: talk once a year. He has to talk. All the 270 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: media's there. It's not like, you know, if this was March, 271 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: you're not. He doesn't have to say anything. He does 272 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: his State of the Union. He stands up there, ask 273 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: me any question you want, and then they're going to 274 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: ask these questions at is going to be some interesting TV. 275 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: All right, we'll take a break here.

It's throwing games both. I mean, you 313 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: are asking your coach to tank, but you're instructing someone 314 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 1: to lose a sporting event. Isn't that throwing a game? Yes? 315 00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: Or is it still? Is it under the tanking ten 316 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: or the throwing game sent? Are they the same thing? 317 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: But are you bribing your coach like the mob would 318 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 1: bribe players to point shave? Right? All right? Like what 319 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: is the difference here? Well, in point shaving, you could 320 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: still win the game. Like let's say your favored by twelve, 321 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: they say win by sex. But you're still bribing right, Well, 322 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 1: how about this. There's some stories about the Brian Flores 323 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: situation that says he was instructed to lose games while 324 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: they were still playoff eligible. You know they weren't like 325 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: out of the playoffs. Mark Cubans told us years ago. 326 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,959 Speaker 1: Once they were not eligible for the playoffs, you do 327 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: everything you can to help your draft position that seems 328 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: more palatable. Stephen Ross promises to cooperate with the NFL 329 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: and defend the integrity of the Miami Dolphins and himself. 330 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 1: So in part his statement called Brian Flores lawsuit falls 331 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: malicious and defamatory, promising to defend his personal integrity as 332 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 1: well as that of the organization. Now he's saying, it's 333 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: completely untrue with regards to the allegations being made by 334 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 1: Brian Flores. I'm a man of honor and integrity and 335 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: cannot let them stand without responding. I welcome the investigation. 336 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 1: I'm eager eager to defend my personal integrity, the integrity 337 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: and values of the entire Miami Dolphins organization from these baseless, unfair, 338 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 1: disparaging claims. According to Chris Mortenson or the mothership, the 339 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: NFL is a statement after the lawsuit came out saying 340 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: that Flora's allegations were without merit, But they said they're 341 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 1: going to investigate. So if it's there without merit, why 342 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 1: are you investigating? Feels like somebody is lying. Here, is 343 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 1: Brian Flores lying, Is Stephen Ross lying? One is completely lying. 344 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 1: It's either did or you didn't. It's not you know, 345 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: Stephen Ross could have said this yesterday. I'll come on, 346 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: I'm joking around with him, you know, like, hey, come on, 347 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 1: why don't you lose some games. I'll pay you. I'll 348 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: pay it, so you could lose some games. Miscommunication took 349 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: it out of context. He went the other way. So 350 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 1: now we're all in, and Brian Flores didn't say, you 351 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: know what, maybe I misremembered or no. It feels like 352 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: he's got some information here. He's got some hard information here. 353 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: And I think, if I'm Steven Ross, if you're the NFL, 354 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: do you want to find what do you want to 355 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: find here when you investigat because normally when you start 356 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: an investigation into your own business, your own house. Okay, 357 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: what is the fallout here if you say, hey, we 358 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: didn't find anything with Stephen Ross? Okay, what if Brian 359 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: Flores says, let me bring in the GM here we 360 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 1: had a conversation about this, or here's a text message, 361 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 1: here's another person who heard this. Whatever it is. Now, 362 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, let's say you bet you were 363 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 1: betting on Dolphins games. Can you have class action lawsuits 364 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: against the Dolphins if they were purposely tanking and you 365 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: could prove it like this is a rabbit hole. If 366 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 1: you go down, who knows what you're going to find, 367 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 1: and you know you do you want to If you 368 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: find something, then you're gonna have to take away his team. 369 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: Like there's a lot of different tentacles attached to this, 370 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: and we're just starting the investigation there. There's also the 371 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: other aspect. And I was told by somebody in the 372 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 1: NFL with the NFL yesterday that yes, the Rooney Rule, 373 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 1: the hiring practices, you know, it's not a perfect system, 374 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 1: but the Stephen Ross situation far more alarming and damning 375 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: for the NFL because of the gambling aspect of it. Now, 376 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: when the Rooney Rule came out established in the early 377 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: two thousands, the teams were told and interviewing for the 378 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: head coaching position a minority applicant must be included, no 379 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: guidelines about the seriousness of the interview. What if the 380 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: giants locked in on Brian Dable but also said, hey, 381 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: we got how many times have you hired somebody? And 382 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 1: let's say there's ten people. The third person who comes 383 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: in you go, oh my god, that person and blew 384 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 1: me away. But you still have to interview the other 385 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 1: people because human resources says you have to interview everybody. Well, 386 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 1: maybe the Giants locked in on Brian Dable, right, Plus 387 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: you don't want to lose him to some other team, 388 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 1: because when Brian Dable after they blew out the Patriots, 389 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: Brian Dable, it was reported, could have his pick of jobs. 390 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: Albert Breer, you know, joined us Monday morning quarterback and 391 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: said that, but you have to go through the process. 392 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: If I'm the Giants want Brian Dable, I'm gonna let 393 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: Brian Dable know you're gonna get the job, but I 394 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: got to go through the interviewing process. It's not perfect. 395 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: I get it, it's sensitive, but you're telling somebody not 396 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: to decide, Like, how can you do that? Hey, don't decide. Well, 397 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna fall in love with somebody, and it might 398 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: be the third candidate, the fifth candidate, maybe it is 399 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: the last candidate, and maybe the Giants just made up 400 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 1: their mind but still wanted to go through the process. 401 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: Had to go through the process and interview Brian Flores. 402 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,719 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's any rule that can prevent 403 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:43,199 Speaker 1: that from you making a decision on hiring somebody. And 404 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 1: maybe that's what happened. Now, I don't agree with the 405 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: Giants when they say, hey, we looked at the resumes 406 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: and you know, we hired the guy who was more qualified. 407 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: That to me is nonsense. Brian Flores three years as 408 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: a head coach, and you know I was keeping his 409 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 1: team in playoff contention. They were winning in spite of 410 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: an owner who wanted him to tank. By all accounts, 411 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 1: a man of principle. And you're telling me, man, Brian 412 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: Dabele can turn out to be a great coach. But 413 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: don't say he's more qualified. You can just say what 414 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: we were looking for, we liked he was the right 415 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 1: fit for us. I mean, but Brian Flores, how do 416 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: we know did you really interview him? Now? How serious 417 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: was that interview? And it's just like the Broncos If 418 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: the Broncos had locked in on Vic Fangio, but they 419 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: still had to do the interview with Brian Flores. And maybe, 420 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: you know, John Elway and company didn't go in there, 421 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: you know, with the thought of let's make this a 422 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,919 Speaker 1: serious interview. I don't know, maybe you had to do it. 423 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: They did it, maybe they didn't do it in a 424 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: professional manner. But once again, the Rooney rule. This is 425 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: what teams were told that there's no guidelines about this 426 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: seriousness of the interview. You hope that it's not a 427 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: faux interview, but there are faux interviews. We've been involved 428 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: in faux interviews. I was involved in a faux interview. 429 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,959 Speaker 1: Found out later that somebody was already going to get something. 430 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:25,120 Speaker 1: You're going okay, But the Rooney rule, the reason why 431 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,239 Speaker 1: I was put in was because of situations like this 432 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: that you just wanted to get an interview and now. 433 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,679 Speaker 1: And they extended it to general managers as well. But 434 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 1: so there's a lot of things going on here. And 435 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: I feel bad for Brian Flores because it felt like 436 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 1: he was a leading candidate. We were surprised he got 437 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: fired in Miami, and then the Bears job came up, 438 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 1: the Saints job came up. You know, he was mentioned 439 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: with two or three other jobs and they're still openings. 440 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: I think the Texans were going to interview him. But 441 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: with everything that's going go on, there's the Dolphins part 442 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:06,360 Speaker 1: of this, and then there's the Rooney rule and labeling 443 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: the giants's racist. I don't I don't know if you 444 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: can label them racist like they made up their mind 445 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 1: with Brian Dabele, and Brian Dabele does have a great resume, 446 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 1: but I don't know. I don't know. I think you 447 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,479 Speaker 1: got to be when you throw that word around, like 448 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: how do you prove that now you have to go 449 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: through all the hirings that you had in the organization, 450 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,360 Speaker 1: or hey, I'm going to prove to you that we're 451 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: not this the history of the organization. I don't know 452 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 1: how you prove that. And once again I asked a 453 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,479 Speaker 1: source yesterday, I said, what does Brian Flores want? And 454 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 1: my source said, I don't know, And we did reach 455 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: out to his people. I didn't want to have his 456 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: attorney on. I wanted to have Brian on. I thought 457 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: Mike Greenberg did a great job yesterday on the Mothership. 458 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: I'd get up, you know, getting the right questions. I 459 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: don't want I don't want the lawyers in there. I 460 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: want to talk to you. That's it, one host, Let 461 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: me talk to you. And I thought Riney did a 462 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 1: great job with that. So it's it's kind of tricky 463 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: with everything that's going on proving this the NFL. Do 464 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: they do a deep dive on this with Stephen Rossum, 465 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: you know, was he really trying to incentivize losing? And 466 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: you know there's a lot attached to it. But you know, 467 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 1: the commissioner, he's gonna meet with the media next week 468 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles and they're gonna be a lot of questions, 469 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 1: and I don't know. I mean, he might say, what's 470 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,439 Speaker 1: an ongoing investigation. I can't really talk about I mean 471 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: there's ways to I've been I've been covering sports for 472 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 1: forty years. I know how this works when somebody doesn't 473 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: want to tell you something and just blame the legal system. 474 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 1: You know, it's an ongoing investigation, and I really can't 475 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: say anything about it right now. Yeah, I always want 476 00:26:58,280 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: to report it to come back date. Well you can. 477 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: Here's a mic in front of you right now. No 478 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: one's actually physically keeping you front. You're the commissioner, you're 479 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: the boss. What a week ahead? Hey, but Jim Harball's 480 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: back at Michigan. What's that? Like? Do you do you 481 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: hold a parade? Like? What do you do when Jim 482 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:21,479 Speaker 1: comes back into town, comes back in the building. Hey Jim, Hey, coach, 483 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: you know, thanks for not getting hired by the Vikings. 484 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:33,679 Speaker 1: Oh man, All right, um, pull questions there Todd We 485 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: also have Should an NFL owner offering coaches money to 486 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:40,280 Speaker 1: tank be forced to sell the team? Absolutely, that's too severe. 487 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 1: Namely Stephen Ross. What should happen to him? If it's 488 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: found that he did these things, then he asked to 489 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: sell the team. He's already denied it completely. If if 490 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: they can prove that he did do this, then he 491 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 1: should have to sell the team. Absolutely? What else? And 492 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: we had one fun one? What are you going to 493 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: do with no football this weekend? Not counting the Pro 494 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: Bowl as a thing. Find other sports to watch, binge 495 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,959 Speaker 1: some Netflix offerings, spend time with the family, do some 496 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 1: handy work, or run errands, lots of napping.

It's his second 555 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 1: year in the league. Didn't make a two point or 556 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: point three rebounds assists add up to twenty two on 557 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: top of everything that was just shed all of that 558 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: that is weird, fabulously wonderful. And he stole your thunder 559 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: on that. Did I had that prepared for one of all? 560 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: Is that going to be the look? We're still gonna 561 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: do it anyway, because there's still there's like ten things here. 562 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 1: He mentioned most of them. But you said you were 563 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 1: worried about your safety or your health or how was 564 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: yell Desmond Dane should have been worried twenty two point 565 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 1: two percent. No, but you were worried yesterday about two 566 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: two two two two. Nothing the dramatic happened. I took 567 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: like a like a vitamin in the evening that I 568 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,479 Speaker 1: almost choked on. I thought I was almost choked out 569 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: because it was in my head the whole day. It's 570 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: like it's like a big calcium pill because I don't 571 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: have a lot of dairies, so I need a supplement. 572 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: And it went down the wrong way. So for a 573 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: few seconds, I don't know two two twenty too, like 574 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: I was gonna die in the kitchen and choked it death. 575 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: But I drank some I took some ginger ale and 576 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 1: I got it down. Yes, Marvin, we gotta get tied 577 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: like some Flintstone's kids or something like that. Next time, 578 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: come on mini football. There calcium than plus D that 579 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: I took, and I just I knew something was gonna happen. 580 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: And I probably if you die, you don't want to 581 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: die because you choked on a calcium terrible. Yeah, Like 582 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 1: that's not the way you go out. Like how did 583 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: he die? Danding there in the kitchen he was taking 584 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: a multivita and it was on two two twenty two, 585 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: just like he said, oh no, not the two two 586 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: twenty two. Let's take a break. Yeah, yeah, you don't 587 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: want a eulogy where you died like like you know, 588 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: he was a lumberjack, he was a tough man, he 589 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: was a man of that. He died taking a multi vitem. 590 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: You never hear that heard he choked on a supplement. O.

Okay, anything interesting last night on the 657 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: road trip? Well, that's a you know, I learned a 658 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: lot about Texas. I could say that the speed limit 659 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 1: is seventy or seventy five pretty much on every road, 660 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 1: which it's interesting because sometimes you're like crossing over three 661 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 1: lanes of traffic to try and make your turn and 662 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: there's all of these trucks flying by. Um, so that 663 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 1: was interesting, an interesting experience. We had some pretty great 664 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 1: barbecue that'll surprise you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I went with 665 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: some sausage a turkey that was really great.

Dude, what is that? 673 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 1: You got some bubble gum or bubble it'sious something so 674 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: uh yeah, that's been in development. Um. We saved a 675 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 1: Matthew McConaughey autobiography for the drive today, just to get 676 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: us in the mood.

Here comes 692 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: that of the day, as dad of the day, that 693 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: of the day, Here comes the stat of the day. 694 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels and David Ziegler have been hired as new 695 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 1: head coach and general manager the Las Vegas Raiders. They 696 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: are the only two current NFL GM head coach combinations 697 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 1: to be former college teammates at none other than my 698 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: alma mater of John Carroll University in Cleveland, Ohio. Another 699 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: fun fact about that team, Nick Cassario Texans GM was 700 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: the quarterback. Thanks and have a great day, No, thank 701 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,880 Speaker 1: thank you? Andy. Yeah, I knew that he went to 702 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 1: John Carroll. I think he was a quarterback and then 703 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 1: became a wide receiver. There, let's see what else do 704 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,959 Speaker 1: we have here, David Louisville, Hey Dave, what's on your mind? 705 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: Hey Dan? Six foot and unfortunate two forty Dan. I 706 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: used to practice employment law before I retired, and I 707 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,760 Speaker 1: had a few friends ask about the lawsuit from Flores 708 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: and you know, I read it, pulled it up, and 709 00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:55,839 Speaker 1: it's a class action lawsuit. I don't know that many 710 00:40:55,880 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 1: people are discussing that. Well, he needs these other coaches 711 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 1: to join him. I'm guessing right, that's right, and getting 712 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 1: a class certified is going to be pretty difficult under 713 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: the facts that he's alleged here. I mean, he's alleged 714 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 1: some pretty specific allegations against teams. He's going to need 715 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 1: people who are similarly situated, and I got to think 716 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: that's going to be hard to find. I mean, I 717 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: understand that the racism is a huge issue with you know, 718 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 1: minority coaches, but that's going to be very very hard 719 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: to find from a from a legal standpoint. Yeah, that's 720 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 1: what I wandered. And I have no legal background, thank you, Dave, 721 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,879 Speaker 1: although I have hired lawyers before, but that's my legal background. Yeah, 722 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 1: trying to prove racism. I think that I think that 723 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: will be difficult. But this is only because of what 724 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: I've read here. Brian Flores has brought a lot of 725 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 1: attention to this. The question is where does it go? 726 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 1: Is there smoking gun here? What is it you have 727 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 1: that you feel that strongly? Because the NFL, and my 728 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 1: source with the NFL said, they're going to turn his 729 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 1: life upside down, Bryan Flores, They're going to that's the 730 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: way it works. If he cites mental anguish from being 731 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,520 Speaker 1: fired or not getting a job, then they're going to 732 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: want to talk to a wife or a girlfriend, or 733 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 1: their job is to win the lawsuit. They don't care 734 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 1: how they do it, but they're going to turn his 735 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: life upside down if it gets to that point. Hugh Jackson, 736 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 1: former Brown's head coach, said he was sort of incentivized 737 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: to lose in Cleveland. At least I think that's what 738 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 1: he's saying. More phone calls, Well, update the poll results, 739 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 1: and our good buddy Ross Tucker will join us as well. 740 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 1: One hour in the books, two more to go on 741 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 1: this Thursday, Dan Patrick show, one more Right and we 742 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 1: close out hour one and it's sleep number.
