Or ant the producer? 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:46.120 I found that because you know, I got these things 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:49.400 that I followed that it's just all facts, like we. 0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:51.960 This fact is nobody. 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:54.760 And I was like, well, what do they call themselves? 0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:58.000 Because I'm from Jackson, we called ourselves jack Tonians and 0:02:58.080 --> 0:02:59.800 they call themselves ship Tonians. 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.520 That's so they all would yeah, basically yes. 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:05.320 And then we watched we watched a video about it 0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:07.720 about how like it was based on a latrein and 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:10.760 all this stuff. It's real because like I initially thought, 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:13.040 for those of you watching at home, that it was 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:15.080 a kind of a mispronunciation. 0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:17.640 You thought I did it because it was the Europe Well. 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:21.320 Also you mispronounced yeah, So I thought maybe that's what's 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.920 going on here. And then there's this like professor of 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:28.560 London City and he's got this British accident. He's like shitterton, 0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:30.200 you know, and you're like, okay, that's how they say, 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:30.480 and they. 0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:32.840 Keep stealing the sign that's the whole thing. That's how found. 0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:36.320 Oh really, no, that's how found because anytime they put 0:03:36.360 --> 0:03:39.480 the sign up, somebody steals it. So then they said, 0:03:39.560 --> 0:03:41.520 you know what, they made a big old rock and 0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:43.920 carved the name in the rock because nobody. 0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:48.360 Could pick up a two ton of rock. Yeah, so 0:03:48.400 --> 0:03:49.080 they be on one. 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:51.080 Did you imagine being in like the budget meeting for 0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:53.280 that being like, hey, people keep stealing the signs, and 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.320 it's like, let's just make it really heavy. 0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:56.160 No, No, I'm. 0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:58.080 Probably trying to do them a favor because no one 0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:01.880 wants to ride and say see that sign like welcome to. 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:04.880 No I want to take Like if I had a wife, 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:06.320 I'd be like, let's go vacation. 0:04:07.200 --> 0:04:08.000 Where are we going? 0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:11.760 So that rock is a literal? 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:17.160 Yes is man?

I think Bluefoot is. 0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:00.320 I did a couple so with him before before he 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:03.479 came over to this side, and he's well spoken, so 0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:05.280 you know, he's one of those guys good. It's probably 0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:07.520 gonna add enough to what we already have that make 0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:08.600 us that much more better. 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.760 And so this week you got to leave him alone. 0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:13.880 That's my boy. 0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:16.240 I love. I named him Blue. 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:19.400 He is getting like white backed. Listen, he doesn't look 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:20.599 like a cornerback.

I was 0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:53.320 gonna say, that's the future in the past. It seems 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:53.640 like a. 0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:55.720 Show if you if you want to be a Commanders fan, 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:57.440 I would definitely check.

And I just 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:45.679 wanted to get your quick, high level thought on whether 0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:48.440 or not you think he's actually better than Patrick Mahomes 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:49.800 or not. 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:52.479 I think you got to understand what he was but 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:54.040 he was trying to say. He was trying to say. 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:56.760 He was saying that if he had to compare hisself 0:06:57.040 --> 0:07:01.320 at what he does football player, he would say he's 0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.600 the best in the game, so he would be better. 0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:05.560 That he would be like a Patrick Mahons, better than 0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:08.560 Patrick Mahomes. And you know, and when people, especially today, 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:10.640 when it comes to social media and all the different 0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:13.720 new you know, everybody has a voice now when it 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:16.200 comes to you know, sports and stuff like that of 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:20.560 that nature. They took it and it ran, so I 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:23.440 get it, but it was too much of the Patrick 0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:25.600 Mahons talk than just him saying, hey man, I'm the 0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:28.000 best in the game, the best at flag football. No 0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:29.440 one could do what I do. And I have to 0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:33.040 be honest. When you watch that sport, it's different from 0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:36.360 what we do. Play a couple of times totally different 0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:39.840 ball games. So that's why guys like himself have that 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.560 kind of mantra about what they do because they know, look, 0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:45.040 you guys play tackle football, but over here, you know, 0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:46.400 I'm King of the Hill, you know what I mean. 0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:48.040 So you know, hey, it reminds us. 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:51.600 That reminds us of the game we play every year 0:07:51.680 --> 0:07:54.880 with Congress. Yeah, we played the flag the police officer 0:07:54.960 --> 0:08:00.600 talk smack and the Capitol police abuses us because they 0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:01.440 put me in try. 0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:04.040 We haven't won a game yet. We ain't meet them yet. 0:08:04.120 --> 0:08:06.200 And we ain't meet them yet because they run and 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:09.480 play and they're doing it because they do this weekend 0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:12.640 and week out. I got the I got a guy, 0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:16.800 the congressman from Maine is our quarterback. He's seventy years old. 0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:21.080 He dropping back throwing picks. So I understand what the 0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:23.640 guys trying to say. He said, you know what pro 0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:27.520 football is your life, but this is mine and this 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:28.600 ain't pro football. 0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:31.080 And then this, because I had to talk about. 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:33.240 It on, don't get loud, And at first I snapped, like, 0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:35.920 come on, man, don't do that. Don't disrespect, But then 0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:39.160 I thought about it. He didn't say I can beat 0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:42.200 Patrick Mahomes in the league. He say, I'm basically the 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:46.559 Patrick Mahomes of this flag football, So I give him 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:50.160 that respect. I apologize to you, my brother, and never 0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:52.240 played flag football with a congressman. 0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:54.959 Serious, I was about to say, because I coached. I 0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:57.400 coach high school football, which is tackle football, no mores, 0:08:57.440 --> 0:08:58.840 and even that's a little bit different than the NFL 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:00.920 because the hushes are different. And then I've also coached 0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:03.360 flag football because my son's ten, so coached his team. 0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:07.520 And the way the field spaces in flag football is 0:09:07.679 --> 0:09:10.959 so different and how fast stuff happens because there's no 0:09:11.000 --> 0:09:13.720 offensive line, you're not really taking a drop. It's way 0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:15.800 way different. So I could see why he's saying that 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:17.559 because it's a different I think it's important knowledge it's 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:20.920 a different game. Although I wonder like, because Patrick Mahomes 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:24.320 is such a special thrower of the football, he would. 0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:27.280 Be lightning in a bottle in flag food. 0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:28.679 Because he could touch the field in a way that. 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:31.400 A lot of those guys in the way that it 0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:32.320 works with him. 0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:34.760 And I think that's the thing about Patrick Mahomes is 0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:38.559 like the arm angles, like his arm talent is so good. 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:43.120 Like baseball, he cares, he grabs a football like a 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.520 baseball and desa EVENUZI. 0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:47.439 Yeah, so I think obviously there's a physical skill set 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:49.120 there that he has that I think would be great 0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:50.600 aut But yeah, I get what he's saying. And like, 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:52.760 I think a lot of people just take NFL guys 0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:53.760 to put him in flag football. 0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:57.320 It's not like Kirk Cousins would not be good play. 0:09:57.720 --> 0:10:00.960 But Lamar Jackson crushing maybe. 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:03.080 Lamar Jackson, Tyreek Hill, they like, they would kill it. 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:04.760 Space fighters, space fighters. 0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:07.840 Guys that come maneuver and work their hips and do 0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:10.679 certain things of that nature. You know, they woul kill 0:10:10.720 --> 0:10:11.400 that league because. 0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:12.320 They don't do great worry abou football. 0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:14.000 Yeah, I know, I played a lot growing up, and 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:17.360 I was ain't know so crazy about it. I'm going 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:19.800 to give you a short story when we played. When 0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:22.600 I played the defensive side, I would play either safety 0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:25.280 or the end because the rush, you can rush and 0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:26.880 you're just throwing your hand up in the way and 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:28.600 then now they tuck in trying to run out your 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:32.160 way and you fast. So it's always fun. Man. But 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:34.760 that's why I got it. I get what. I got 0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:37.040 what he was saying different from the door, because it's 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:38.480 just one of those things. He was trying to make 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:41.640 an analogy of a great player, but he just kind of. 0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:42.839 Got got people. 0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:44.040 He take it. 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.679 Yeah, take you something, Jason, you gotta take right. 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:47.240 Yeah. 0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:50.400 So I'm going to compare a different sport here. But 0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:52.640 I used to play softball. You know how you have 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.320 beer league softballs or whatnot. And we had a guy 0:10:55.480 --> 0:11:00.720 join our team who just retired from uh baseball, baseball 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:03.640 but minor league, but high level minor league. And he's like, 0:11:03.760 --> 0:11:06.400 I'll play softball with you guys, And we were like, oh, 0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:07.480 we're going to clean up. 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:07.840 Yeah. 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:10.920 It legitimately took him like two seasons to figure out 0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:13.800 the difference between a softball and a baseball, really, because 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:14.600 all you would do. 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:14.959 Is pop it. 0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:18.200 You would pop it up four hundred feet straight up. Yeah, 0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:21.680 because he just couldn't figure out the timing. You think 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:23.760 it would be easier, but it's not. Now once you 0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:24.360 figured it. 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:25.600 Out, yeah, yeah, watch out. 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:30.680 Oh but they just like tennis. I used to love tennis, 0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:32.400 but my feet won't let me play it no more. 0:11:32.440 --> 0:11:33.079 But then you go. 0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:35.280 Try to pick a ball. Yes, totally different, and it's 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:35.839 it's it's a. 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:38.319 Difference to it where the ball comes. And I think 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:40.360 that's the thing. It's like there are levels to it, 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.400 like college football is different than probably football, right, flag 0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:46.240 football is different. So understanding that nuance, I think makes 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.840 his statement a little bit more clear. All right, So 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:51.480 in addition to flag football conversation, we have real football 0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:53.760 to talk about, right. Obviously, the fifty three man roster 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:56.680 just came out, and we're all really excited about the 0:11:56.679 --> 0:12:00.199 twenty twenty four Washington commanders, and obviously Dan quick and 0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:01.840 and Adam Peters has been very clear that this is 0:12:01.880 --> 0:12:04.760 subject to change. Right, it's lots of Yeah, it's yes, 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:06.720 it's fluid. Maybe it's the word. 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:08.720 Fluid, Yeah, fluid. 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:11.800 You said fluid as if I if you're. 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:16.680 Fluid? What did he say? 0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:22.560 Hey, I know what he said fluid as it because 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:23.880 he was fluent. 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:26.280 Is like it's I'm fluent in a language and I. 0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:28.960 Know it in fluid. Yeah, it's like fluid. 0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:31.240 Yeah, like it's a fluid changing that's. 0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:37.720 What I said. I was like, fluid, but my tongue. 0:12:38.559 --> 0:12:39.880 You didn't do a lot of talking last night. You 0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:40.760 were at the stadium for that. 0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:43.439 Yeah, it was fun fantasy football. 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:46.800 So and so kind of talking about this fluidy, I 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:49.199 thought we should talk about a couple of different tools 0:12:49.200 --> 0:12:51.000 that they've viewed, because I heard, like all these terms 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:53.559 get thrown around, right like, oh, guys on PUP, but 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:56.160 guy's on IR, he's on IR designated a return and 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:58.439 so like what the different things mean, So let's talk 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:01.520 about POP and this a little bit confusing, but PUP 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:05.560 basically you gotta be on the list. 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:07.480 So you actually have to be hurt though. 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:10.079 So you don't, you do, but like there are ways 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:11.720 to fudget. So like what I'd say is like, so 0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:14.880 on cut day right, which was yes, or which was Tuesday? 0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:17.840 Right on cut day, I can either put you to 0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:21.559 i R or cut you, or you make the team, right, 0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:24.240 those are the three avenues. I cannot put you on 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:27.560 the PUP list that day. It has to have to 0:13:27.559 --> 0:13:30.080 be on the list already. And it kind of works 0:13:30.120 --> 0:13:32.560 the same way because it's taking an injured player and 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:36.800 protects them until until week for six weeks, so the 0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:39.599 seventh week they could potentially play, right, that's it. 0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:41.760 You have to already have to be off for six 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:45.600 weeks though, Yes, is on the pup because he's already 0:13:45.679 --> 0:13:50.000 hurt and I didn't know he was hurt Beckham in Miami. 0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.640 Yes, yes, so that's so. And then for us, Felbot 0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:55.400 is on the pup. So he's a guy that is 0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:57.199 not going to count against the roster. He doesn't count 0:13:57.240 --> 0:14:00.000 against the salary cap, but he could come back later 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:00.560 this year. 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:02.720 And I do they get paid? Why they on a puff? 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:05.160 You get paid, yes, and it doesn't count against the rust. 0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:08.960 It doesn't count against the cat cap. Yes, so that's pup. 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:13.560 I are, I can on the day of cuts designate 0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:17.079 you to IR. So a good example that is Jordan McGee, Right, 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:21.160 he was like, maybe he's gonna be healthy, Maybe not right, 0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:23.560 so we put him on IR and he is also 0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:26.360 designated short term I are, which I think is four weeks. 0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:29.760 In the fifth week he could return to play. So 0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:32.840 it's really the same mechanism. But you got to be 0:14:32.880 --> 0:14:33.760 on the thing already. 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:35.920 No, not a question that most of these people who 0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:39.200 listening to this wild acts. If Jordan McGee gets off 0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:42.720 week four ready to play by week five to someone. 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:43.720 We have to release. 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:44.880 Someone have to get released. 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:46.600 Yes, we have to release the same thing with the 0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:49.200 pup too. If if that guy comes off the pup, 0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:50.280 you have a couple of. 0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:52.240 Weeks to make a decision demote that person to the 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:52.960 practice squad. 0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:56.240 Yes, yes, practice squad you can't. 0:14:56.280 --> 0:14:57.960 Well, that's the thing about this is again, this is 0:14:57.960 --> 0:14:59.720 where it gets a little bit complicated. To get a 0:14:59.720 --> 0:15:02.240 guy practice squad, you have to put the you have 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:02.920 to release. 0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:04.440 Them, release them first. 0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:06.560 And yeah, so obviously in the case of Jordan McGee, 0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:08.600 you probably won't want to do that. No, probably would 0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:10.960 move somebody else. But in the short term, let's talk 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:13.680 about the advantage of this gives us. Right, So because 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:16.400 fa about is on the pup, because Jordan McGee's on IR, 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:20.360 that allows you to keep two extra players for six weeks. Right, So, 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:23.240 I don't know, like name your player dominque Campton. 0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:27.120 Maybe come on, if we got seven eight safeties, Yeah, 0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:29.680 it's something, it's something there. 0:15:29.840 --> 0:15:32.760 So that's a way to keep two good football players 0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:35.200 in your program while they're hurt and keep two more. 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.280 So it's it's a good tool to kind of manipulate 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:40.120 and move the roster around. So just want to touch 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:41.960 on that because I know a lot of people ask 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:43.840 me like, what's pup, what's I ar? 0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:44.680 What's I sort? 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:48.440 They're just tools to help you manage the roster around injury, 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:52.120 give you more time. Yes, what is for? Absolutely? So okay, 0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:54.800 So now let's talk about the roster, the actual roster, 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:58.120 and so let's start with this. Is there anybody that 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:01.160 makes you to go wow, like they made the team? 0:16:01.200 --> 0:16:02.800 You're or and Wilson. Let me see what you got. 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:03.400 It's so good. 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:08.840 You look like or Wilson and you and Wilson is great. 0:16:09.360 --> 0:16:12.000 You know my guy, I called him out when we 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:15.400 picked him up as a free agent, a college free 0:16:15.400 --> 0:16:19.560 agent coach and Yank all, dude, it's just with something 0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:20.160 about him. 0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:23.840 Like me myself, I love versat the players. If you 0:16:23.960 --> 0:16:24.480 tell me a. 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:27.880 Guy played quarterback in high school and running back and 0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.400 now he's a tight end, it's tell me he just 0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:33.040 has an insight on how to play this game. So 0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:35.080 I was like to myself, it's gonna be hard to 0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:35.920 cut this guy. 0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:37.320 He's gonna find. 0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:40.840 A way to weasele himself onto this roster because he 0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:42.000 does too many. 0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:44.160 Things good and he has done that. 0:16:44.320 --> 0:16:47.280 I know if we go back three months from I 0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:49.800 mean ago, and you look at his name, coach and 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:51.960 yank Off. Nobody would have picked him to make this team. 0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:57.440 Nobody but me. Like the gym from the Stars, nobody 0:16:57.440 --> 0:16:57.720 but me. 0:16:57.920 --> 0:17:00.240 I think I'm telling to do back and check to take. 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:01.920 But I think we were You and I and Fred. 0:17:01.920 --> 0:17:03.840 We were all very high in culson Yan Cup because 0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:06.160 he was a good athlete who could play special teams. 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:07.639
