What Up Sticks, What's Up? Man, 43 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: you're watching some horse racing. Apparently that's crazy. Bro. 44 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 3: I never thought Chris Jones would be outdone, but this 45 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 3: one clearly puts Chris Jones in an easy second, easy second, 46 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 3: and it's uncomfortable. First, I'll tell you that. You just 47 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 3: see the one I said it to you too, leeve 48 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 3: you see the one that I sent you. It's it's uh, 49 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 3: let's just say. You don't really pay attention to how 50 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 3: obvious it is when you're watching horse racing, but when 51 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 3: you watch regular racing like sprinters racing, and that happens, 52 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 3: it's noticeable. Ohn very uncomfortable. So I didn't make it 53 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 3: all the way through. I didn't make it to the 54 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 3: finish line. I'll tell you that, but it was I 55 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 3: heard it was a valiant effort though. Yeah, you know 56 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 3: he went a hit and still won the race even 57 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 3: though he had a uniform malfunction. 58 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. I believe the name is Chris Robinson, us track 59 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 1: star who did win a race and he want to race. 60 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: I mean he should have won a race. He ran 61 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 3: three legs. I mean, he definitely has horse power. 62 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: He should run the race. Expect guy's got a leg up. 63 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: All the competence the leg up and the foot. I mean, 64 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: that's what he should do. Sorry for having, you know, 65 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: higher expectations for certain people here on this show, Paul Jeeves. 66 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,119 Speaker 1: It just makes you want pause. 67 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 3: It just makes you wonder. How do cats wear anything 68 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 3: but like onesies to run? You can't wear them blue 69 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 3: shorts when you're sprinting, man, when when you've run. Now, 70 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 3: now I just look at it differently. Now for all 71 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 3: these years, you know, he's just like you never paid 72 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 3: it really any mind, but that one forced you to 73 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 3: pay attention to the fact, like you got to pay 74 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: attention to what you're wearing when you're run. 75 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: This is what I wonder because I know that racer, 76 00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: like sprinters, swimmers, they're looking for an edge anyway they 77 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: can get it. And I've always I've always wondered about that, 78 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: Like swimmers will shave their armpits, and they'll shave their bodies. Yeah, 79 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: and the faces and everything. You mean, a little armpit 80 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: hair is gonna be the difference between you and in 81 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 1: a gold or a bronze probably more mental, you. 82 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 2: Know what I mean. 83 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: Like it's all I know is I'm not a gazer. 84 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 3: That's not something that I've ever been into, not not 85 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 3: my deal, not for s's and giggles, not for anything. 86 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: For anything, I'm not a gazer. 87 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 3: But that video that popped up, first of all, just 88 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 3: like the Chris Jones joint, it's just kinda it's like 89 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: seeing road kill.

Okay, geez, that's not mature at all. Former 145 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: Ravens kicker Justin Tucker was suspended for the first ten 146 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: weeks of the regular season after the NFL found he 147 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: violated the league's personal conduct policy.

And you talk to 155 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: certain people in Baltimore and they're like, yeah, this has 156 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 1: been rumblings about this stuff for years and years and 157 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: years that there was allegations and people like whispering about 158 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: and what brought this on? And you know, there was 159 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: Jerry Coleman, who covers the Ravens and Baltimore Sports does 160 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 1: a phenomenal job. Listener to the program, He's fantastic. Jerry 161 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: pointed out that what brought the conversations up was not 162 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: because people thinking, well, you know, did he know these 163 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: were allegations were coming out and that's why he struggled 164 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: last year. No, what brought the topic up was people wondering, God, 165 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: why is he struggling? Maybe he should go back to 166 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: his old ways. Oh wow, And that's what sparked up 167 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: all of the details and the allegations and the revelations 168 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: and the rumors started again, and that's why this became 169 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: a story. So, nonetheless, he gets suspended for the first 170 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 1: ten games of the season. If he were to sign 171 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: with the team, he could attend training camp and play 172 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 1: in preseason games before the suspension starts August twenty sixth. 173 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: He's eligible for reinstatement November eleventh. The NFL says. 174 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 3: They clearly found something that they didn't like in looking 175 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 3: through the information about him, and I don't you know, 176 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 3: it doesn't really mention anything about legal action. I don't 177 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 3: think at this point, I don't think so, yeah, don't. 178 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 3: I don't think I saw that and anything that I've 179 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 3: looked up into this. But if the NFL suspended that 180 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 3: man for such a substantial amount of time, like you 181 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 3: even look at the Deshaun Watson on one game less 182 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 3: and and while Watson settled and maintains his innocence, if 183 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 3: if this was a matter of him getting shook down, 184 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 3: I just don't think the NFL is going to make 185 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 3: it an example of or or create a standard where 186 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 3: its employees can be extorted, because that's what that would be, 187 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 3: is extortion, is what it is. You're dictating what the 188 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 3: working health of of that that employee is by making 189 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 3: these these claims, especially obviously if they were to consider 190 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 3: it to be false claims. So the NFL can't just 191 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 3: be loosely throwing out ten game, you know, multiple multiple 192 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 3: of games of of suspension. If they don't feel like 193 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 3: there's something warranted to issue out because that is a 194 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 3: very very stiff penalty. That's half the season. More so, 195 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 3: it's more than half, but you know what I'm saying, 196 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 3: it's half of the season gone. And so to me, 197 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 3: you don't want to put the league in a situation 198 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 3: where any type of dealings can easily be leveraged by 199 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 3: those who wish to gain from it. All you gotta do, 200 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 3: say this happened, boom, the NFL has to act. You 201 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: gotta believe some type of civil suits are coming now 202 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 3: that you got a suspension from the league. Maybe that 203 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 3: that's a good enough case for a Busby or you know, 204 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 3: another lawyer out there to do a lawsuit against a 205 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 3: collection of lawsuits against Tucker to get a settlement. 206 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: It happened with Deshaun Watson. Don't know how much. 207 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 3: They got out of it, but you gotta believe it's 208 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 3: in the seven figures. You gotta believe it's in the 209 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 3: seventh figures somewhere. 210 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: So yeah, So to. 211 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 3: Me, you don't want if I'm the NFL, you don't 212 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 3: want to just take these these matters lightly, not only 213 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 3: from the standpoint of if it really happened, But imagine 214 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 3: if it didn't happen. Now, you gotta you like that 215 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: fine tooth comb has got to be handled so well 216 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 3: with so much care, because you are in a situation 217 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 3: where the decisions that you make as a governing body 218 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 3: are ultimately going to dictate how things have to be 219 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 3: handled in the future based upon what these guys are 220 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 3: doing in their spare time and how it's being interpreted 221 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 3: by the people who they're spending this time with. 222 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: So, Tucker's representative released the following statement after the NFL 223 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: decision to suspend him for the first ten weeks of 224 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: the season. Quote, we are disappointed with the NFL's decision. 225 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: Justin has always strived to carry himself in a way 226 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: that would make his family and community proud. He stands 227 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: by his previous statements. In order to put this difficult 228 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: episode behind him and get back on the field as 229 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: soon as possible, we've advised Justin to accept this resolution 230 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: and close this metha. Accept the resolution we just code for, Hey, 231 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: we got no shot here be can't we got no shot? 232 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: I mean, we can continue to try and you know, 233 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: deny this and all that, but there's got to be 234 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 1: some decent amount of evidence that would suggest that these 235 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: allegations have some validity to. 236 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 3: Them, which now leads to you better give an agreement 237 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 3: to any of these people that have, you know, make 238 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 3: the claims against you, and get that NDA signed, and 239 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 3: get an agreement signed so you can put it to 240 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 3: bid and move on from it, so there's no further embarrassment, 241 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 3: there's no further coverage because all it does is continue 242 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 3: to damn. It's his brand, but it's collateral damage as well, 243 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 3: because it damages the National Football League's brand as well. 244 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 3: Guilty by association, and the league has to know that, 245 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 3: and they have to understand that these are very delicate situations, 246 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 3: and it's taking place in a time where the delicacy 247 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 3: of handling, you know, things of this nature are at 248 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 3: a high premium. You cannot miss and mess around with 249 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 3: these types of scenarios. And while I say the NFL 250 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 3: is big enough as a brand and as a commodity 251 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 3: to be able to overcome most anything, it's the slow drip. 252 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: It's the chipping away. It's like, wait, hold on, when 253 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 3: I heard one, it was one thing, even if you 254 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 3: made it racial, like there was one he was black racist, Okay, right, 255 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 3: then you could try to make it a justification like 256 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 3: you had one digit human being and whatever it is, 257 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 3: your preconceived notions of how that racial group and particularly 258 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 3: handles things, you can try to get some some closure 259 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 3: on it as a fan. But but Justin Tucker, him, 260 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 3: But Justin Tucker, if that was what you were trying 261 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 3: to run with, and you felt good about it, and 262 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 3: you wanted to create this divide as if you were different, 263 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 3: you were better than what we are lo and behold, 264 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 3: Justin Tucker's not only the one that evened up the field, 265 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 3: but he is a high end high like he's you know, 266 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 3: he's he's a golf damage. That's as high level white 267 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 3: dude as you get in the guy, clean cut looking dude, 268 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 3: put numbers, put a Hall of Fame career. That's the 269 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 3: one that throws you for a loop, like wait, Justin Tucker? 270 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: Yeah no, I mean you know, how how did this happen? Listen? 271 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: I got I gotta tell you. And speaking for my 272 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:05,360 Speaker 1: fellow white people, we were we were just I mean, 273 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 1: he gives us really a bad look because we thought, 274 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: to your point that man, at least we could say 275 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 1: that we at least that's our one up on the 276 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: whole situation, and now everybody's doing it. You know, it's like, 277 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: let's know, it's no longer the racial barriers have been 278 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: completely broken, and now we've got one black. And actually, 279 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,360 Speaker 1: if you think about it, we've been mixing Robert crafts. Oh, 280 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: the whites are up two to one, are up to one. 281 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: So there's the best of seven. Somebody's got to step 282 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: their game up on your head and tang just letting 283 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: you know, I don't think we can compete with that. 284 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 1: When you throw Robert Kraft into the scenario, I think 285 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: that just pushes it out of reach for us to 286 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: be able to outrank you on what we're doing. Just 287 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: saying that's one that y'all got. Y'all got it in state. 288 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: So we've already lost. You've already lost, haven't. 289 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 3: I mean, how many thanks, guys, how many how many 290 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 3: dudes will have to mess up for to quate the 291 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 3: mess up that Robert Craft is. It's man, it's I 292 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 3: mean you put there too, which I don't think there's 293 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 3: Is there a mug shot of Robert Kraft, Probably not 294 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 3: of of Tucker, but maybe a Craft. 295 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: I think he was smoking a cigarette. 296 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 3: Was he really Oh, man, that'd be funny as hell, 297 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,959 Speaker 3: But I just you know, I don't know. 298 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: Man. 299 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 3: It just again, on a more serious note, you can't 300 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 3: take these matters lightly. If you're the NFL, you have 301 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 3: to move in a way that shows that you're distancing 302 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 3: yourself from the person that that is being a degenerate. 303 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 3: Which that did not happen with Kraft, but you know, 304 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 3: that's another topic for another day. But but they did. 305 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 3: They did give a harsh, stiff penalty to Tucker, which 306 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 3: probably will effectively end his career. I would assume, I 307 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 3: don't know that he becomes a little radioactive, so I mean. 308 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: Get another shot. 309 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:01,360 Speaker 3: In fact, oh wait, thought, I mean, well, you did 310 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 3: say he gets another shot, so we know I did 311 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 3: say it his career before he say he gets another shot. 312 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: All right, three teams are out for sure on Justin Tucker. Obviously, 313 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: the Ravens, the Browns, and the Patriots can't do it. 314 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: I mean they probably want to. 315 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 3: The Browns definitely will not catch, and the Patriots can. 316 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 3: The Patriots cannot. 317 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: Okay, we just brought that up. I mean, you couldn't 318 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 1: even bring up robber Craft stuff, you know, at the 319 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: Tom Brady Roast without Tom Brady getting a red ass 320 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: about it. So like, that's so clearly those teams are out. 321 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 1: But look, if he's going to be ready in November 322 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: and there's a team out there with kicking issues and 323 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: we're talking about arguably the greatest kicker of all time, 324 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: at that point, I could see them justifying this stuff 325 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: with look, we understand, we get it. But if you 326 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 1: go back, these allegations were from twenty sixteen, I mean, 327 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: these were a long time ago. He's a different person. 328 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: He's a change man looking for a long time ago. 329 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 3: And it just came out and you just got caught 330 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 3: for it and you got punished for it. 331 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 1: That hits differently with fan bases. It's like, when you 332 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 1: hear something being speculated about, you're tolerant of it. When 333 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: it actually comes out and it's being discussed in the open, 334 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: it's not as tolerable, and it's just a horribly bad look. 335 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 3: The conduct when it goes into that realm of being 336 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:37,400 Speaker 3: inappropriate sexually towards people, it's just never going to land well. 337 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 3: You put your hands on a woman, it's not going 338 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 3: to land well. You you do things against their will, 339 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 3: it's just not going to land well. 340 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 1: It's a it's a full contact sport. 341 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,959 Speaker 3: Dudes are big, they're strong, they come in all different 342 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 3: shapes and sizes and racial backgrounds. There's just too much 343 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 3: connected two and too much at stake for the reputation. 344 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 3: You can't come across as Neanderthals or guys that just 345 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 3: can't handle themselves emotionally, can't control themselves emotionally and physically 346 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 3: when it comes down to the opposite sex or the 347 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 3: same in twenty twenty five, it's just not. 348 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: A good look. 349 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised if we never see him play 350 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 3: on a team again. Who's going Why is it worth 351 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 3: taking a hit, risking the reputation of the team by 352 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 3: bringing him in based off of why he's out in 353 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 3: the first pa. 354 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: Cause I think you're maybe not giving enough credence to 355 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: teams like to win games. And if he's won a 356 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: lot of games for Baltimore, and so I'll ask you this, 357 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: do you believe it's more likely he's brought back in 358 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: season or in the offseason, because I think it's probably 359 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: more likely that teams don't want to deal with the 360 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: distraction that late in the year, and if you're struggling 361 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,959 Speaker 1: at the caseer position. Maybe you make a move, you know, 362 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 1: to sign somebody else that's not going to have as 363 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: much blowback in the year when you've already got turmoil 364 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: at the position and it turns in all sorts of drawings. 365 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 1: I just don't know how there's no blowback. I could 366 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,239 Speaker 1: I could see a team in the off season being like, 367 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: all right, we've got an off season to figure out 368 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: the messaging, deal with all the questionings, deal with a 369 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: whole questioning. 370 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, I know you're going to say it's because they 371 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 3: want to win, but why would you why would you 372 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 3: concern yourself with doing that? It's just to me, I 373 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 3: think the risk reward of bringing in a guy that 374 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 3: brings that type of radio activity to the to the 375 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 3: equation is that's not a touchable that's not a touchable commodity. 376 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 1: Depends on who you ask. 377 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't disagree with you thinking that way, 378 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 3: and I'm sure teams will possibly kick that around, But 379 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 3: you're risking, like again, you make a decision like that, 380 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 3: you're risking the fallout of what it could be and 381 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 3: how do you take that back? 382 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 1: So for remember matt Erizah matte Eriza, who is the 383 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: punter for Kansas City. Now, if you remember those allegations 384 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: that came out when he was at San Diego State, 385 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: I believe he was called the punt God, and all 386 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: of a sudden, these allegations came out I think the 387 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: off season after he was drafted, and nobody would really 388 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: go near him until Kansas City waited for everything to 389 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 1: calm down, and they ended up bringing him back. He's 390 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: too big a name, Justin Tucker. Yeah, it's too big 391 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: a name. I could see it in the off season. 392 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: So that listen, we've we've called our shot. And this 393 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: is not me defending Justin Tucker. I don't want people 394 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: to get to get upset or to get offended. I 395 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:43,120 Speaker 1: just don't get. 396 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 3: I just don't get why you would take the chance 397 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 3: like that is that is such a big deal that 398 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 3: your team could possibly get get canceled, or the GM 399 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 3: could get canceled, or the head coach could get canceled. 400 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 3: And now what if that turns into a thing. I mean, look, 401 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 3: they took Mike Vick back, you know what I mean, 402 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 3: And Mike vic that's against all odds. I mean, you 403 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 3: want to talk about not wanting somebody back in the league, 404 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 3: the fans did not want him back in the league. 405 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: I mean you remember the protests. It was bad. Oh 406 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: my god, people, it. 407 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 3: Was very very I mean it was bad, like you 408 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,399 Speaker 3: would have thought we were in a different time period. 409 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: I actually think if that happened now, maybe he doesn't 410 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: get it out. He can't. He can't. 411 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's too much the social media, the way things 412 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 3: are covered, the way it's circulated. 413 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: Remember Riley Cooper, Yeah, I mean Riley Cooper dropping an 414 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: ND bomb at a concert. And I think he's still 415 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: maintained on the team. And I think he got a 416 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: contract extension. He did, he did, he did. It's not 417 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: a shot, but he didn't last long as that. 418 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 3: Just Yeah, I just don't think you can get away 419 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 3: with those things because if if you sign him, here's 420 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 3: the risk you run if you sign him. 421 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: What comes? 422 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 3: Like you're like, can you imagine how the Browns feel 423 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 3: after really getting involved with Deshaun Watson? Like you gotta 424 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 3: be sitting there, like I got over two hundred million 425 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 3: invested in this man. What's going to happen next? You're 426 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 3: just waking up every morning one of your morning checklists, 427 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 3: questions to yourself in the mirror while you're brushing your 428 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 3: teeth and shaving your neck and all that stuff.

I just don't see it being worth it 437 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:55,959 Speaker 3: for any organization to take that chance. 438 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, well we will, we will.

We'll get into that. 518 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: That'll happen for you. Top of next hour. I was 519 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: thinking about this though, because we've talked about it when 520 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: it comes to training camp and football, and when the 521 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: heat starts to become a problem and you're seeing the 522 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: same player over and over again, whether it's teammate, whether 523 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: it's you know, then you start to see joint practices, 524 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 1: you start to see the fights start to ratchet up, right, 525 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: And I think a lot of that has to do 526 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: with the heat, right, Like, you're just uncomfortable. It's training camp, 527 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: you're tired of it, you need a break, and then 528 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: the fights start to happen. 529 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 3: Well, you're talking about the most competitive people being put 530 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 3: in competitive scenarios playing out every day. Yeah, So when 531 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 3: you're around each other in the locker rooms, you're around 532 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 3: each other in the meeting rooms, you're around each other 533 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 3: on the practice field, you're around each other in the 534 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 3: weight room, you're around each other in the training room. 535 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 3: First of all, the level of key keying that goes 536 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 3: on is ridiculous, Like it's ridiculous how much people pick 537 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 3: with one another and say wild things to one another 538 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 3: or do weird things to want to mak locker room. 539 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 3: Locker room culture is very real, and it can be 540 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 3: fun for some funny for others, and it can be 541 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 3: terrifying for others. And so just depending on what side 542 00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 3: of it you you know, fall on. But I say 543 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 3: all of that to say, when you get out on 544 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 3: the football field, the one thing that football players know, 545 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 3: especially like the more volent ones, they understand that you 546 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 3: get way more grace being able to just live free 547 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 3: on the practice field then you would ever get anywhere else. 548 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 3: You bang somebody, like bang with somebody in the locker room, 549 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 3: you're going to get in trouble. You're probably gonna get fined. 550 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 3: You do it in the all those all those places 551 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 3: I named outside of the practice field, you're going to 552 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 3: get in trouble. But for some strange reason, if you're 553 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 3: on the field and it's during practice and it's within 554 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 3: the spirit of practice, it's just like it's it's it's 555 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 3: no different than the riverside when somebody blows a lag 556 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 3: out or blows up a finger or whatever it may be, 557 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 3: and it's just like, hey, turn it around, sanctioned violence 558 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 3: going you really get you're you're really able to blow 559 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 3: that type of steam off with very little to no 560 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 3: repercussions being connected to it, and it gives the player 561 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 3: it gives the player a false sense of security to 562 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 3: be able to kind of do things that you would 563 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 3: never be able to do in a regular workplace. 564 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: So the reason I bring it up is because I've 565 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: noticed over the past couple of weeks there's been an 566 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: uptick in bench clearing situations a major league beyond like 567 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: you're seeing multiple times over benches are cleared. Nobody's really 568 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: thrown punches yet, but for I mean obvious, didn't intentionally 569 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: throw at somebody, but accidentally hit a player, And you 570 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 1: see the benches clear when it's obvious based on pitch count, 571 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: game situation, you're not trying to hit anybody, it was 572 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: an accident. You're seeing benches clear, you're seeing arguing between 573 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: the dugouts. You saw something before the game. I think 574 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: it was the Angels in the Red Sox a little 575 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: while back. And I just wonder if part of that 576 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: is there's this heat wave going on in the Midwest 577 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: and all across the country where people are getting blasted 578 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: with really hot weather, and I just wonder if baseball 579 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: players are at the point to where they're like, listen, man, 580 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: we just need to get to the All Star break. 581 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: We're tired of this we're tired of seeing the same people. 582 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 1: It's hot as balls. This is a long ash year. 583 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: We play one hundred and sixty two games, and they're 584 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 1: just at the point right now to where everybody just 585 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 1: needs a break. You're just fed up. And it just 586 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: reminds me of when you see training camp. It's usually 587 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 1: about a week or two weeks in that you start 588 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: to see the skirmishes come out, like you start to 589 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: see videos come out. 590 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 3: You get that camp out, you get real irritated, and 591 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,240 Speaker 3: agitations happen way easier. 592 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: Camp aus.
