If Vancouver, 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:58.480 if they lose tomorrow night to Calgary, then we will 0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:00.280 clinch the Western title. 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:03.560 They'll win the conference title, which is even more important, 0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:04.120 or we. 0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:07.919 Just need one point when it means something, Yes. 0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:12.640 We have another maybe okay, depend if the Rangers win tonight, 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:15.200 they will clinch the President's Trophy. 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.520 But they still would like the conference title, right, and 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:18.520 then that's so. 0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:22.320 They can still which they could still win the conference. 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:28.120 Title if if Vancouver wins, right, So Vancouver, if they 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:32.480 lose against Calgary tomorrow night, then we would take the 0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:33.240 title tomorrow. 0:05:33.360 --> 0:05:36.120 But if that doesn't happen, then Wednesday, we would need 0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:39.359 one point to get the Western Conference. 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:42.000 So we say at one point means one win, Okay, 0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.080 it just would be I want to make sure. 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:47.720 Actually you could go into overtime and earn a point 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.280 in the NHL and without winning. 0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:54.679 Otherwise you're going to be watching load and manage. 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.800 That's the you know, if it's fan night, then they'll 0:05:57.839 --> 0:05:58.640 still make it foul. 0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:03.120 They only have what eighteen guys on the roster. They 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:04.640 can't rest everybody. 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:06.280 Off. 0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:09.880 They can rest in jobs. They'll need to listening to Savannah. 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:13.240 But yeah, Stanley Cup playoffs they start Saturday on the 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:13.720 twenty eeth. 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:15.880 Okay, so we're going to bring it back from Canadian 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:19.320 hockey to the National Football League and the drafts. There 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:22.479 is a Canadian Football League player, Everson that you will 0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:28.440 be interested in. His name is Kuantes Stiggers. He bypassed 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:32.960 playing college football instead he went to the Canadian Football League. 0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:35.920 He played for the Toronto Argonauts and his stock is 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:41.279 rising in this draft. He's a cornerback, cornerback, six foot 0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:43.480 one hundred and ninety seven pound cornerback. 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:47.640 And if you had watched the Shrine Bowl game, here 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:51.960 first two plays he stood out. I don't know if 0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:55.279 he that was enough or maybe he pulled a hamstring 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:59.240 after that, but he went down on the opening kickoff 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:02.680 and made it tackle. And then on the first play 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:06.000 of the game, if I remember correctly, he broke up 0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:07.760 a pass and it was almost. 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:08.240 A pick six. 0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:11.640 So I said, oh, this is the Stiggers guy, and 0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:15.000 I kind of looked into what he was exactly. 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.920 He was originally going to Lane College, and his father 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:22.160 tragically died in a car accident, and so he had 0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:25.440 to help support the family, and so he wound up 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:30.400 in twenty twenty two playing in that indoor fan controlled 0:07:30.520 --> 0:07:34.840 football league streaming league. And then in this past year 0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:38.240 he was with the Toronto Argonauts and was a CFL 0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:42.320 All Star and most outstanding rookie in the league. And 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:44.360 now this is the first year he's eligible for the 0:07:44.520 --> 0:07:47.640 NFL Draft, and so he is one of the guys 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:49.280 there all teams are looking at. 0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:52.160 How far you think he can move up or has moved. 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:55.520 I heard one of the so called draft experts this 0:07:55.680 --> 0:08:00.600 morning say that his stock is rising. Were this supposed 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.160 draft expert who has a junior on the end of 0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:05.440 his name, Uh. 0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:09.480 He's been doing it for forty six years, said that 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:13.000 he's got him as a fourth round pick. Now, okay, 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:14.320 so there you. 0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:15.320 Go, pretty good? 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:16.000 All right? 0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:18.880 What's his name again, Melker? 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:24.680 Oh no, I got you, thank you, Which rends me 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:29.480 speaking of a draft day, this is going back to 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:33.360 the early nineties at Valley Ranch, and we're sitting on 0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:36.959 Draft day or watching the ESPN coverage of mel Kuiper. 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:40.079 Junior comes on. Remember you know Greg Williams from the 0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:46.319 Ticket hard Lined fame now in retirement. If you know him, 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.959 it's even funnier. He says, I got one question, who 0:08:51.040 --> 0:08:52.840 the hell's mel Kuiper Senor. 0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:57.920 Why does he get this lady Kiper? 0:08:59.120 --> 0:09:01.960 All right, So we got a little game we're going 0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:02.840 to play, right, We have a. 0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:04.920 Little game we're going to play today, you guys, okay, 0:09:05.080 --> 0:09:06.880 tell us what the game is, all right? 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:11.400 So obviously draft is top We got. 0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:13.719 Plenty, We got plenty to talk about. This is just 0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:16.719 a preview of what's to come over the course of 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:17.360 the next. 0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:18.160 Hour here exactly. 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:19.079 All right. 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:21.880 So I know there's a lot of needs right now 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:24.240 when it comes to this Cowboys team, and a lot 0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:27.400 of questions is what are the Cowboys going to do 0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:31.480 throughout this draft? And we have a lot of position 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.959 needs we need to address. So I have we said 0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:37.199 a few weeks ago, you know, if Mickey and I 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:40.120 brought a dartboard in here, we can just throw a 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:42.439 dart and land on a position and we'd have a 0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:43.040 need for it. 0:09:43.559 --> 0:09:46.040 So I put together the spin. 0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:48.199 Wheel, the wheel of draft fortune. 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:49.920 Yes, the wheel of draft fortune. 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:50.920 So we're going to spin this. 0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:54.440 It's going to land on a position type and we're 0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:58.440 going to address the need and where we're at currently 0:09:58.520 --> 0:09:59.240 on the team with this. 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:01.440 I love it. Okay, We're going to do that starting 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.160 in the next segment. Okay, starting in the next segment. 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:04.480 We're going to do that. 0:10:05.320 --> 0:10:08.440 I'm going to there's some there's some news this morning 0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:11.839 around the league. Yes, where would you like to start? 0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:15.600 I want to start with Davante or Davonte Smith Smith. 0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:21.800 I'm sorry, Davante Smith Adams. He's into Davante Adams territory 0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:26.720 now with his new contract. Philadelphia Eagles signing Davonte Smith 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:31.400 to a three year, seventy five million dollar contract extension. 0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:34.080 I believe it was fifty one million guarantee and. 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.000 It goes through twenty twenty eight. 0:10:36.360 --> 0:10:39.199 And so that is they picked up his fifth year 0:10:39.240 --> 0:10:42.079 option and then they've extended him three years on top. 0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:46.160 Of that, which averages out to twenty millions. Okay, So 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:51.160 if you add sixteen million to that, yeah, that's pretty 0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:52.080 good chunk. 0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:52.320 Okay. 0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:54.520 So he was in the twenty twenty one draft and 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:57.800 as you'll recall that was the Micah Parsons Draft and 0:10:57.880 --> 0:11:00.240 the Cowboys had the tenth pick in the draft. And 0:11:00.400 --> 0:11:03.439 what happened in that draft, the Philadelphia Eagles traded with 0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:05.800 the Dallas Cowboys to get ahead of the New York 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:08.959 Giants because the word was the Giants were interested in 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:12.920 Devonte Smith, and so then the Eagles took Smith. Cowboys 0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:16.320 dropped down two spots. The Giants wound up trading out 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:20.160 because Davonte Smith was gone. They were looking Lawrence Taylor 0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:22.559 in the face and said, no, we don't want that player, 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:26.319 and they instead they traded out with the Bears, and 0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:30.600 Justin Fields was taken by the Bears, and the Giants 0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:35.559 dropped down to like twenty and took Kadarius Tony. Didn't 0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:38.080 work out so well for them, and the Cowboys stick 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:39.920 next and took Michael Parsons. 0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:41.800 So there's that draft history. 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:45.920 But it is interesting when you look at the numbers 0:11:46.040 --> 0:11:50.360 posted by Davonte Smith in his career now three years 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:54.280 in his career, compare them to CD Lamb's numbers in 0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:58.199 his career so far. All right, so it's a twenty 0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:01.079 five million dollar per year average on that extension for 0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:02.400 Devonte Smith. 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:05.400 We're still going over thirty with CD. 0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:10.360 And that's why the deal hasn't gotten done yet because 0:12:10.360 --> 0:12:15.319 there's no telling what CDs folks are asking for. The 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:20.439 Cowboys know, you know, he was guaranteed. He's guaranteed this 0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:25.839 year eighteen million on the fifth year option. So the 0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:31.359 guarantee has to be probably four times that I would imagine. 0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:34.600 And if you look at the salaries for the top 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:39.240 paid wide receivers, they're going to have to go over 0:12:39.559 --> 0:12:43.040 thirty million dollars a year to be able to get 0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:43.640 him signed. 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:46.000 And CD coming off the season that he had. 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.720 Do you recall, ever, so how many catches CD had 0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:49.640 this past season? 0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:55.319 Eighty one hundred and thirty five? Oh eighty you know what? 0:12:56.640 --> 0:13:00.240 I sat there, you know here we are to put 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:00.840 you on the spot. 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:05.040 Ever, Bro, not to put you on the spot, ever, said, okay, 0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:06.839 because I just threw that curve ball at you. 0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:07.319 No. 0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:14.319 For myself, I knew good and well three months ago. 0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:16.160 I knew good and well that he had one hundred 0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:18.800 and thirty five receptions and led the league. And then 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:21.280 I looked up his numbers today and I went, wow, 0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:24.719 he had one hundred and thirty receptions. I mean It's 0:13:24.760 --> 0:13:28.160 funny because three months passed and you get into doing 0:13:28.240 --> 0:13:31.280 other stuff and whatever, and you forget about exactly what 0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:35.640 was done. He had one hundred and thirty five receptions 0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:38.839 for seventeen hundred and forty nine yards twelve touchdowns. 0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:42.720 With me, the number that took everything was thirty million dollars. 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:45.319 That's what I was looking at. I'll get the catchich, 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:46.079 but that can't. 0:13:45.920 --> 0:13:47.320 Seem like you said. 0:13:47.480 --> 0:13:50.040 He just my god, the one hundred thirty five kids, 0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:52.640 I'm thinking that my guy, thirty million dollars a year, 0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:53.760 and that's what I'm thinking. 0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:54.719 Well, and look at it. 0:13:54.880 --> 0:13:56.679 He's now four years in the league. 0:13:56.920 --> 0:13:59.760 Okay, not to be his agent here, It doesn't take 0:13:59.840 --> 0:14:00.200 much to. 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:03.800 Be his agent with what he's done so far, called Jeria. 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:09.199 Four years in the league, he now has three hundred 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:13.000 and ninety five receptions for fivey one hundred and forty 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:16.800 five yards and thirty two touchdowns. So the oh, let 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:20.760 me just finish this, okay, all right, Michael Irvin, That's 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:21.600 where I was going. 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:23.920 In his career, had seven. 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:27.240 Hundred and fifty receptions for eleven nine hundred four yards 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:31.640 and sixty five touchdowns through four seasons. Ceedee Lamb is 0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:35.800 already halfway to Michael Irvin's numbers in his career. 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:39.640 It's incredible. So he's got the single season franchise record 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:46.960 for receptions and receiving yards already, and he's and actually 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:49.200 close to the Hall of Famer right now. 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:51.480 And if you go back and look at his career 0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:54.400 in college and even in high school down in Houston, 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:56.840 he's put up these numbers forever in his life. I 0:14:56.920 --> 0:14:59.480 bet if you went back to his youth league game 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:02.920 are days in used to he's put up the same time. 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:07.000 I was just thinking when we first signed him, this 0:15:07.240 --> 0:15:10.160 is not what I saw. I saw a good player, 0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:12.160 but this is not what I saw. I didn't think 0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:12.800 he was gonna be this. 0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:15.360 Damn but he was that good in college, I know. 0:15:15.520 --> 0:15:16.760 But that's still God. 0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:20.080 Yeah, guys, it's the posed, it's the NFL. 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:20.360 You know. 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:23.160 You can't just transfer that easily. Well, some people can't. 0:15:23.360 --> 0:15:26.600 And then the thing is is his ability to be 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:30.160 moved all around the offense and run out of the slot. 0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:33.560 It says a lot of other wide receivers, the more 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:36.560 you can do, the more you can do. Because you're 0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:39.800 talking about the guy, excuse me that Dan Bryant could 0:15:39.840 --> 0:15:42.440 have been so much better if he could have done 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.320 if he could have done more than there was more 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:45.920 for him to do. 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:47.480 Yeah, so that he can. 0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:50.560 And the other thing is mentally CD can handle the load, 0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:53.880 you know, or wherever you line him up. 0:15:54.120 --> 0:15:57.600 So what Bill is pointing out with those numbers and 0:15:57.720 --> 0:16:01.880 what he's done. The highest paid wide receiver right now 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:07.920 is Tyreek Hill at thirty million, fifty two guaranteed at signing, 0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:12.920 So you know this has got to exceed that, right 0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:16.120 if you're the agent. But the hang up is and 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:22.360 people need to understand this instead of continuing to criticize 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:26.000 the Cowboys for not having this done and having to 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:29.200 deal with the fact that he may not be here 0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:33.400 in the off season to work out, may not be 0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:39.640 here for OTAs and you know, well two things. One, okay, 0:16:39.920 --> 0:16:45.320 thirty million, But the hang up is is justin Jefferson's 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:48.800 in the same boat. And if you're the agent, who's 0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:53.080 going first, they're playing cat and mouse now, right because 0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:55.800 I don't want to sign my guy first, and then 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:58.440 the other guy gets more and it looks like, oh, 0:16:59.120 --> 0:16:59.920 his club. 0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:04.399 Here's what I learned negotiations. It's just like a player. 0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:11.359 Everson walls. Ronnie Lott did good things, but in different ways, right, 0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:15.680 totally different ways, built differently, think differently, different everything. When 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:18.600 you're talking about players, you're talking about wide receivers, talking 0:17:18.600 --> 0:17:19.320 about salaries. 0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:20.800 There's a way to. 0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:26.080 Reach a goal financially through other means. It doesn't have 0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:30.520 to be just signing bonus or just salary. I remember 0:17:30.760 --> 0:17:33.960 Doug Cosby. I copied him when he did in a 0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:36.399 contract with the Cowboys. He was doing very well and 0:17:36.440 --> 0:17:38.800 they wanted to sign to a good contract. Well, we 0:17:38.880 --> 0:17:42.160 put the newies into the situation and you start doing 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:45.720 other money vehicles, then there's always. 0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:48.520 A way you can brag and say I made more. 0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:50.639 If I'm gonna make thirty million, I want to make 0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:52.919 thirty million in one, thirty million in two. 0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:53.639 Who cares. 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.359 When you're talking about the top ten, there could be 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:59.400 a money vehicle in there, a financial vehicle in there 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:03.760 that could allow you to make money, but not necessarily 0:18:04.640 --> 0:18:05.720 in yearly salary. 0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:06.639 Be like. 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:12.240 Would get his money after he retires. Well, some have 0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:15.640 done that, right, But there's a salary cap here. 0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:16.080 Do that. 0:18:16.160 --> 0:18:18.680 There's a salary cap here that you have to account 0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:18.960 for it. 0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:22.600 And that's the house and that within the salary, right. 0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:28.800 So, but the hang up is is basically Justin Jefferson 0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:33.640 because they're going to compare those two guys same draft, right, 0:18:35.040 --> 0:18:38.240 and they're going to compare number two and number two 0:18:38.480 --> 0:18:42.719 right now, since you mentioned it is Davante Adams at 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:47.359 twenty eight million, Yeah, at twenty eight million. Uh, and 0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:51.840 then next was Cooper Cup twenty six point seven million. 0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:56.480 And to just to hammer home your point on the 0:18:56.640 --> 0:19:00.320 comparison between Ced Lamb and Justin Jefferson, check out their 0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:04.120 stats and how they compare to each other. Justin Jefferson 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:07.840 has three hundred ninety two catches. CD has three hundred 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:12.359 ninety five catches. Justin Jefferson has eight hundred ninety nine 0:19:12.480 --> 0:19:17.439 yards and CD is fifty one forty five. Jefferson has 0:19:17.520 --> 0:19:22.639 thirty touchdowns. CD has thirty two touchdowns. CD has also 0:19:23.119 --> 0:19:26.240 has forty three carries for another three hundred eighteen yards 0:19:26.280 --> 0:19:29.840 and three touchdowns, and Jefferson has only twelve carries twenty 0:19:29.920 --> 0:19:33.199 eight yards in one touchdown. But it's almost identical numbers 0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:35.600 across the board, and so that you can see where 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:40.560 whatever Justin Jefferson is getting, CD says, that's me too. 0:19:40.960 --> 0:19:41.080 Ben. 0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:42.840 They're both three time Pro bowlers. 0:19:43.720 --> 0:19:45.640 So they can't both make the same amount of money. 0:19:45.680 --> 0:19:47.720 Can are they're gonna have to do? 0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:51.200 I mean, who whoever goes first is making less. 0:19:51.040 --> 0:19:54.720 Than the right exactly. And let's fish will buye first. 0:19:54.800 --> 0:20:00.720 And let's point out since the workouts began today strength 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:05.200 and conditioning, it's no big deal. It's three weeks of 0:20:05.359 --> 0:20:08.960 strength and it's not like you're gonna have leverage by 0:20:09.080 --> 0:20:13.359 not showing up to me. I think a player puts 0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:17.600 himself in danger working out on his own compared to 0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:21.200 working out here, because if you work out here and 0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:24.840 get hurt. Their response to the Cowboys are you work 0:20:24.920 --> 0:20:28.320 on your own? You could get put on non football 0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:33.680 injury and if it's you do something serious, they don't 0:20:33.720 --> 0:20:35.280 have to pay you. You're out. 0:20:35.600 --> 0:20:39.400 So crazy, How now they're so restricted in the offseason. Yeah, 0:20:39.440 --> 0:20:43.879 we had thirty five basketball game schedules. 0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:48.120 You know, did they have non football injury back? 0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:48.920 We didn't. 0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:52.800 Even No one ever got hurt playing basketball in those games. 0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:54.920 Not one person got hurt. 0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:57.960 And I did it. We did it for at least 0:20:58.040 --> 0:21:01.639 nine years, and they did it before. I can't. It's crazy. 0:21:01.800 --> 0:21:04.879 So now you see Patrick Mahons, uncle basketball in the 0:21:04.920 --> 0:21:08.320 off season and everyone goes crazy. 0:21:08.280 --> 0:21:09.600 Right in the Chiefs organization. 0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:13.320 The other thing, the other thing I think. 0:21:13.800 --> 0:21:17.720 Patrick duncle basketball. Oh yeah, we see Mike. Could Mica 0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:18.680 does it in celebrity. 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:19.920 Yeah. 0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:22.639 The other thing I was going to point out is 0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:28.520
