We all drew names out of a hat 17 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 1: last week before the master started. Brady Quinn drew Tiger 18 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: Woods once, put it back in the hat twice, said 19 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: LaVar folded a second time for Brady because he didn't 20 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: trust any of us to do it, so he let 21 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: var do it.

I never get any 170 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: of this to get paid though, right there you can 171 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: go places and get blood and get paid apparently. But yeah, 172 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: I just do it out of the kind of your 173 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: hardness of my heart. Yeah, okay, give a little plasma, 174 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: good platelets, Yeah, plasma and plate let's give that now. Yeah, 175 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: which sucks because now that now that they know that 176 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: I could give that, they make me do that instead, 177 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: which is like a two hour process instead of the 178 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 1: usual like in and out half hour thing. So do 179 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 1: you go hard alcohol or beer right after you donate blood? Uh? 180 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 1: You know right now, U off of hard alcohol and 181 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: drinking beer. So I guess beer. So like a double IPA, Yes, 182 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: definitely double idea double ipa. Yeah, you get these these 183 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: little drinking think four percenters get out of my face 184 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: here after I've just donated blood. The Golden Brewery nine 185 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 1: point zero A. Yeah, there you go. There he is, folks, 186 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: So you're in good hands if you get blood from 187 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 1: the Aux Lodge. Courtesy of lead to lap blood. That's 188 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: a short the way we got. We gotta start a 189 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: t shirt line. We have to lead the lap blood 190 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,079 Speaker 1: oh Man. Be sure to catch live editions of Two 191 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: Pros and a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LaVar Errington, 192 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: and Jonas Knox week days at six am Eastern three 193 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeart Radio app. 194 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: Speaking of the NFL, we may have ourselves the conclusion 195 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: standing nearby. One of the major storylines in the National 196 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 1: Football League all offseason, Odell Beckham's j is now a 197 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:05,679 Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens, gets a one year deal worth up to 198 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: eighteen million dollars. Now reportedly it's fifteen million dollars guaranteed 199 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: and the other three would be one million more than 200 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 1: what he said he's worth right, Well, he said he 201 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: was worth twenty. He wanted twenty, but he didn't want four. 202 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: He didn't want four. Yeah, so if you split the difference, 203 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: you would have gone twelve. So he did get more 204 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: than you know, what the average would be there, or 205 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: the splitting of the difference would be. And so now 206 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: he's a Baltimore raven And if we all acknowledge that 207 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 1: it's a prove it deal. Why would he choose to 208 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: go to Baltimore and go play for the Ravens unless 209 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: he probably had a pretty good indication that they were 210 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: going to have something figured out at quarterback, meaning something 211 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: like Lamar Jackson for this upcoming season. And so that 212 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: to me leads me to believe that we could be 213 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: also nearing the conclusion of whatever the plan is for 214 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson in this upcoming season with the Baltimore Ravens 215 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: unless something crazy stuff. I'm just happy before alde Odell. 216 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: I mean, he's been through a decent amount in regards 217 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: to injuries, He's been trying to find a home, and 218 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: he's found someone at least to pay him what reportedly 219 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: is what fifteen million with you know, eighteen million potential 220 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: of earnings within withincentives, which is awesome. I mean, good 221 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: for him. I love seeing this for players. I am 222 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: a little curious to see the language of the contract 223 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: because we've we've seen this a few times this offseason. 224 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: Contracts are announced, the contract comes out, it's not what 225 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: was announced. You know, we saw that with Geno Smith. 226 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: It was a who was a four year, initially one 227 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: hundred billion dollar deal, and that's you know, Scheffer and everyone, 228 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: and then it gets reported now it's actually a three 229 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: year deal and it's a seventy seven million. Then you 230 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 1: look at the contract and you're like, oh, it's really 231 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: just a one year deal. The Seahawks can get out 232 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 1: from underneath it if they need to after this season. 233 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: So you've got to be careful sometimes when you hear 234 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: the stuff. This is a one year deal, So there's 235 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 1: not much miss misdirection in regards to the length and 236 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: probably how much he's gonna get paid. It's just are 237 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: they really going to pay him fifteen million fully guaranteed. 238 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,719 Speaker 1: Maybe it's it's an olive branch to Lamar Jackson and saying, look, 239 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 1: we're continuing to build this roster for you. Are you 240 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,599 Speaker 1: in or are you out? And maybe he comes to 241 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: the table or comes to an agreement on the long 242 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 1: term deal that they've provided him. I'm not sure what 243 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 1: the direction is, but it's definitely a good move for 244 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 1: the roster. It's a good move for ldel and and 245 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: probably helps at least in regards to Lamar Jackson getting 246 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 1: him on board and getting him as part of this 247 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: team to say we're trying to do what we can 248 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,719 Speaker 1: man to give you the tools to be successful. You know, 249 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:48,079 Speaker 1: he was obviously on FaceTime with OBJ. I don't know 250 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: exactly what that means in terms of negotiations techniques for 251 00:13:55,760 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 1: Lamar or how it plays out for even Boltimo or 252 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 1: as it applies to Lamar, but I would I would 253 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:08,839 Speaker 1: ultimately offer this if there is no if there's no 254 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: team out there that is showing an aggressive approach or 255 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: of real interest to Lamar Jackson. So I don't know 256 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: what he's getting on his end, but just from the 257 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: reports of it, if it's as cool or not even lukewarm, 258 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: just under lukewarm on measuring and weighing what the opportunity 259 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: is to acquire Lamar Jackson to your team, you have 260 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: to believe at this point Lamar Jackson is coming to 261 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: the realization that it's not going to go the way 262 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: that maybe he had originally hoped that it would go, 263 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: and maybe now there is I mean, for what it's worth. 264 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: I mean, if we're being if we're being one hundred 265 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: percent real, when you hit the open market as unrestricted 266 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: or excuse me, a non exclusive franchise tag player, outside 267 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: of trying to create some extraordinary circumstances like okay, Rasadian 268 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 1: and company colluded with other teams to make sure that 269 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: Lamar has to stay in Baltimore, which I don't believe 270 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: that to be true. And like if guys talk, maybe 271 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: guys talk because that's what they do. I mean, this 272 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 1: is the league. But I don't believe that there was 273 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: a true colluding to keep Lamar from going to another team. 274 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: I do not think that that happened. And so in theory, 275 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: the player in this scenario, when the market speaks and 276 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: it says that you're going to stay with the team 277 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: you're with because nobody is willing to give up the 278 00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: compensation or pay you step into the situation or they 279 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: have to try to pay you what it is that 280 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: you want, you actually should be able to look at 281 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: your franchise and say, I appreciate you guys giving me 282 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: the opportunity to be able to test the market out. 283 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: Let's talk. Like in theory, that should be how this 284 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: goes down. And possibly even with all the things that 285 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: maybe have come out in the media or may have 286 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: been said on Twitter or whatever it may be, you know, 287 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: with the home workout, Jim Agent and all that stuff, 288 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: I think through it all. Through it all, there's the 289 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 1: possibility that the relationship isn't as tainted as maybe people 290 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: may have thought it was originally to be, and that 291 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: there's the possibility that they could come to the table 292 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: in cooler heads will prevail because if they wanted to 293 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: be a holes about it, they could have gone the 294 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: exclusive franchise tag and not given them any opportunity to 295 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: seek out a better deal elsewhere. I don't know that 296 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: that would actually make them look like a holes like me. 297 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 1: That actually might have been you know, more of a 298 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: commitment to him saying look, we're not letting you go anywhere. 299 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: If a team wants to trade for you, that they 300 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: can and we know we can try to do a 301 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: sign and trade of the franchise tag and you can 302 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: go take their long term deal. The problem is is 303 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 1: he would have to be negotiating with other teams under 304 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 1: the exclusive franchise tag. What it would have done is 305 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 1: it would have gave him about twelve million more in 306 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: money's this upcoming season if he doesn't agree to a 307 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: long term deal. And I think the other thing is 308 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: from a negotiating standpoint, you know, now it actually sets 309 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: up for his long term deal, not quite as robust, right, Like, 310 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,239 Speaker 1: if you're twelve million less this year, that means next 311 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: year and you're under the franchise tag, you make one 312 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty percent of what you made the previous year, 313 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: So that second year of the tag is not gonna 314 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: be as big. So that's why it actually it actually 315 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 1: it wasn't a slap in the face to him, but 316 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: I think it was more of you're kind of being unreasonable, 317 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: all right, like teaching your kid a lesson, Like we're 318 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: gonna let you go out there and see what you're 319 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: really worth in the market. And when you find out that, 320 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 1: you know, you're not going to make an offer as 321 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 1: good as what we're going to offer you, good luck 322 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: with that, you know. And and and maybe you should 323 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: come back and sign the long trip of deal that 324 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: we offered you. I just wonder what happens now, Like, well, 325 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: what's the plan now, because and there's been some thought that, well, 326 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: if a team doesn't find the quarterback that they want 327 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: in the draft, maybe they would come back and try 328 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: and look into what it would take to get Lamar Jackson, 329 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: whether it be Indianapolis or one of these other teams 330 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: that is picking sort of outside the time. How much 331 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: time does Lamar have before I have to July. See there, 332 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 1: I mean, he still can can measure in way what 333 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: you're talking about, Jonas. There's nothing wrong with continuing to 334 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: see if something pans out that way. But to me, 335 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. 336 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: But at the same time, if I'm Lamar Jackson, I'm 337 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: like playtime is over. Let's get really serious about trying 338 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 1: to get a deal done. Um, if if I can't 339 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 1: get more than what Deshaun Watson has has received, then 340 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: let me try to get a shorter term contract as 341 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: as Q has mentioned and shows prior to this, and 342 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: let's try to get a short term contract done. That 343 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: that makes me feel happy and motivated about what I 344 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: have going on here and in Baltimore, Because for what 345 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: it's worth, he does have a great situation. I mean 346 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: not sometimes that gets a little lost and all of 347 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: the negotiation conversations that are taking place, but he does 348 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 1: have a very good situation in Baltimore. He is a 349 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: beloved player, probably the most beloved player since ray Lewis 350 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 1: on on that football team. He's probably yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, 351 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: check check check check. Respect, respect, every yeah, but that's 352 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: a little different. But yeah, you're I mean, I'll give 353 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: you that, but every one my apologies, um, but he 354 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: is he is h He's very much that guy to 355 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: to that community. He's very much in a situation where 356 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: one good season he you know, all of this goes away, 357 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: you know, all of the memories become good memories and 358 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: and and you move on from it. But I will 359 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: offer this. I will offer this, guys, because to me, 360 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: the team is not much different than what it was 361 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: this past season. And and I know it may seem 362 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: exciting to get Obj signed and delivered on your team, 363 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,479 Speaker 1: but there are a lot of question marks that are 364 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: surrounding him as a player, and I don't for me, 365 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how much of a rising tide ob 366 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: J to your team, you know, truly represents. Like I 367 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: think it's a splash in terms of it's a recognizable name, 368 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: you know, the potential because we're connected to the sensationalized 369 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: highlights and how polarizing a figure that OBJ is. But 370 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: when you get down to the brass and you know 371 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: tax of what of who Obj is as a player today, 372 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: I don't know that he's moving the gauge towards towards overheating. 373 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: You know that they're going to be hot because they 374 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: have OBJ. Now I don't I don't feel like that's 375 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,199 Speaker 1: the type of signing this was. But I mean, if 376 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: you pair him up with Mark Andrews, like all of 377 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: a sudden, you're looking at them, going Okay, that's that's 378 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: a duo that you could work with. That's something Lamar 379 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 1: Jackson's looking at, going Okay, I could, I could. I 380 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: could work with these guys and we could have production 381 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 1: and we could have forget Roshod Bateman's there too. Yeah, 382 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 1: he's capable. And I just think and also to your 383 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,159 Speaker 1: point when it comes to his situation, if you or 384 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: to list the top five most well run organizations, like 385 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: ones that do it professionally, ones that you know there's 386 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: not a lot of turnover, there's not a isn't Baltimore 387 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 1: right at the top of that list. I mean, John 388 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 1: Harbaugh has been there for years. DA Costa has been 389 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: there for years. Ozzie Knewsom still involved and was there 390 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: for years. Like when you just look at well run organizations, 391 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's going to have a hard time finding another 392 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 1: one that's better than Baltimore in the league. So the 393 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: idea that he's that you know, he's in this tough 394 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: spot and you know they haven't treated him right now. 395 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,719 Speaker 1: I just that whole that whole thing just doesn't has 396 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: never made any sense to me whatsoever, because they've always 397 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: done people sawid Yeah, I agree with that. I mean, 398 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: they're definitely one of the better organizations. And look they've 399 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: they've made us big of a pivot and have done 400 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: it relatively successful as as any organization. Like you went 401 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: from Joe Flacco to Lamar Jackson, I mean, a pure 402 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: pocket passer to a guy who's arguably, next to probably 403 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 1: Michael Vick, the most dynamic quarterback the league has ever seen. 404 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: And they did it mid season. Yeah. Well, I mean 405 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: it didn't fully they didn't fully turn and turn the 406 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: ship until probably after but just the way they transition 407 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: the entire offense, the makeup of the team, I mean 408 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: even how you draft an offensive lineman and what that 409 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,959 Speaker 1: looks like. I mean, they just they've pivoted they were 410 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: they've made it successful to the point where they're a 411 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 1: perennial playoff team. Like they've provided him the players necessary 412 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: to be able to be as successful as he's been 413 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: and that's not taking away anything from what Lamar Jackson 414 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 1: does or it brings to the table, but he's not 415 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: out there doing it all by himself. I mean they've 416 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: they've set this thing up so he could have success. 417 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,879 Speaker 1: There's not many other organizations that would that were willing 418 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: to sign on for that. I mean, remember every team 419 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: passed on him in the first round. He was the 420 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: thirty second pick. It was Baltimore traded back up to 421 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 1: get him, and I think there's there should be some 422 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:59,120 Speaker 1: equity there and once he signs, because he will eventually 423 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: I think signed a long term deal with Baltimore. I 424 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,479 Speaker 1: mean it'll be nine figures and guarantees. I don't care 425 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: if it's not two hundred and thirty one million to 426 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: top to Shaun Watson. If it's one hundred and fifty 427 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 1: million and guarantees, that's a lot of money. Like it's 428 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: hard I think to sign one hundred and fifty million 429 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: dollar deal and sit there and go, yeah, I'm pretty 430 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: upset right now. Should have been should have been paid more, Like, Okay, dude, 431 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: go make go play great the next two years and 432 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: maybe you could come back to the negotiation table when 433 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: you stay healthy and win another MVP and win a 434 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 1: super Bowl, Like I just I think this. Eventually, coolerheads 435 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 1: will prevail, these two will come together. And for those 436 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 1: who may hate on what you just said, like, well, 437 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: he's already got an MVP, he's already played well enough, listen, 438 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: this is where he's at. So accept the reality. Like 439 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: that's life, people like I was, that's life. Accept the 440 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,640 Speaker 1: reality of where you are right now and can take 441 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 1: the circumstances that you have n't make them work for 442 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 1: It could be worse. Cam Newton's got an MVP, he 443 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 1: can't get a job. How about that? So I gotta 444 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: I gotta take on Cam. But that's for another time. 445 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 1: It's like a house, though, right you buy a really 446 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 1: nice house two three years ago, dude, you could sell 447 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: that for way above, way above probably what you build 448 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: your bot it at, because that was what the housing 449 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: market was at. Is the housing market at that right now? 450 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: Hell no, And people who know that probably realize that 451 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: you can't sell your house for as much as you 452 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: could two three years ago. It's whatever it was. Yeah, 453 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: it's a whole different deal right now. So unfortunately for Lamar, Yeah, 454 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: when he won the MVP. If he was going to 455 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: sign an extension, could he have then? Sure would he 456 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: have been able to maximize what that contract looked like 457 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: at that time? Sure that's not right now, It's not 458 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 1: how the past couple of seasons have gone. Be sure 459 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: to catch live editions of Two Pros and a Cup 460 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: of Joe with Brady Quinn, LaVar Errington, and Jonas Knox 461 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: week days at six am Eastern, three am Pacific.

So is 500 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 1: it a foregone conclusion Bryce Young is going to be 501 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: the number one overall pick for the Carolina Panthers. Is 502 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 1: that the most overdramatic tweet we've ever seen it? Well 503 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: done for a top thirty visit? I mean, my god, 504 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: well put together. It's still two and a half weeks 505 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: before the draft starts, and we're acting like, oh, this 506 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: is the next step. Of course, it's the next step. 507 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 1: And also some bad news for Cam Newton, who was 508 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: looking to back up Malik Willis and Ryan Tannehill. Apparently 509 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: will Levis is headed to Nashville. He's going to visit 510 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: with the Titans coming up on Tuesday. So they've been 511 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: a team that some people have looked at as a 512 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: potential trade up candidate. Where number three is Arizona sitting 513 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: there at three, you would have ventured to guess will 514 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: Levis would be there, and then the Indianapolis Colts will 515 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: be jumped again. So maybe Tennessee could make some sense 516 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: and moving up in the draft and looking at Will 517 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: Levis or something like that. Well, whether it's Levis or Richardson, 518 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: you know, both those guys are viewed a little bit 519 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: more as a project. It would make some sense. You 520 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: got Tannehill there, he's in the final year of his deal. 521 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: They could they could learn grow underneath them while he 522 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: plays and and things don't go well, then then you 523 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: put him in, you know, allow them to get some 524 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 1: experience before they head into year or two and see 525 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: where they're at. So that can make a lot of sense. 526 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: But that's a big jump Tennessee's drafting. I believe it 527 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: would eleven. Getting up to eleven and number three, that'd 528 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: be a lot of draft capital because where was San 529 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 1: Francisco when they trade up to take Trey Lance at 530 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: number three? Overall thirteen? Okay, and they were in the 531 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: teams somewhere like that. We can we can double check that, 532 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: but yeah, and just so people understand how that works, 533 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: there used to be an associated value with every single 534 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: one of the picks in the draft. Jimmy Johnson basically 535 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: came up with this chart, and most teams have deviated 536 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: from that to a degree, like they have their own chart, 537 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 1: but some teams still use it as at least a 538 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: frame of reference. So you know, if you're drafting in 539 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 1: number eleven like the Tennessee Titans are, that pick is 540 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: worth X amount and value. And then if you're trying 541 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: to trade up to three, you know that picks worth 542 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: X amount and value. And so the team's sitting at 543 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 1: three Arizona this case, they would be saying to the 544 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans, you have to at least provide us additional 545 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: picks that would equate an add up to the value 546 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: of this third pick or more. Otherwise we're not doing 547 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: the deal. So that's that's essentially how this is always operated. Now, 548 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: when you're moving up for a quarterback, you know, sometimes 549 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 1: you know a team like the Cardinals can get a 550 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: little better deal because they know the Titans with where 551 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: they're at, they're they're desperate to do this. Otherwise they 552 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: would be you know, calling their phone and offering them this. 553 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: So that that's how it works behind the scenes. The 554 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: forty nine ers were at twelve when they trade it 555 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: up to take spot back. Yeah, so Tennessee potentially moving 556 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: up to three, and if you were moving up, you 557 00:30:55,720 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: would take Levis over Anthony Richardson. No, not necessarily. I mean, 558 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: it all depends on what you're looking to accomplish, you know. 559 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: If you're looking to it, you know, to get a 560 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: guy that has the top end value, you know, that's 561 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 1: you know, that's Anthony Richardson. If you're looking at someone 562 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: you feel like, all right, he's got a couple of 563 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: years or experience. I'm not really sure what to make 564 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 1: of last year under rich Scanguerrilla at Kentucky. But hey, 565 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: when when Will Levis was playing under Liam Cohen, he 566 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 1: was bawling and he looked really good. So trying to 567 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: figure all that out. So, by the way, for example, 568 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 1: I've got up one of the draft charts. I don't 569 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 1: know that this one is Jimmy Johnson's, but I think 570 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: it might be. So the third overall pick is worth 571 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: twenty two hundred points and the Titans pick at eleven 572 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: is worth twelve hundred and fifty. So obviously there's a 573 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: gap right of a little less than what a thousand 574 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: points there. So they've got to figure out, if you're Tennessee, 575 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: what are the picks do I have that can help 576 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: equate to the value at least equal to or more 577 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 1: than twenty two hundred? And that's when Arizona starts saying, Okay, 578 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: now you're talking to I mean, now we could potentially 579 00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: get a deal done. Will Levis and Mike Rabele fun 580 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 1: You think they would lift together, those two guys. I 581 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: think they go go throw some iron around before they 582 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: go out the practice. A couple of meat heads just 583 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 1: doing shoulder shrugs with like one tens on their way 584 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: to the meeting room. That would make a lot of 585 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: stun there at one twenty five on Friday. They shrugs 586 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: shrugs really nice. If you use grips or no grips? 587 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: Do you wear gloves? Who wears gloves on us? I'm 588 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: just saying, I'm asking the people. Do I have like 589 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: the CrossFit deals? You know, like you put over your fingers, 590 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Yeah, almost like like finger thongs, 591 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Yeah, it makes sense, So 592 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: you wear gloves. I don't wear gloves because they're not gloves, Like, 593 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: they don't cover my fingers. They just go to where 594 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: you know, how like Q you used to put the 595 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: tape on your your feet, on your hand, and then 596 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: you or they put that like material on your hands 597 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: and then they taped it around your wrists. Ye, it's 598 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: but now they make it so that you can you know, 599 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: it's like can acted to a wrist band. So I 600 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: need wrist support more than than oh that's like I'll rip. 601 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,320 Speaker 1: I'm okay with ripping my my my, you know, finger 602 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: pads up the catalysts parts. Yeah, but I need risk support. 603 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: No no gloves here, man, they call you. Don't wear 604 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 1: anything now either. In your hand they call me mister blister. 605 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: I don't think why I've shook your hand before. It 606 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: is as smooth as baby's. But Brady literally shook my 607 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: hand and said, my god, like, did you have rocks 608 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: in your palm? No? I think it was the exact opposite. 609 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: I was like, did you just lotion your hands? He was, 610 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: what did you do? He was shocked. He asked me 611 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: if I worked it, if I was a mechanic before 612 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 1: I got into radio, So I don't worry about it. 613 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: I don't worry about what I did. I'm telling you, 614 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: bar it's a real deal here. But you know what, 615 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: backs all loosened up now shrugs with one fifteens. And 616 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: it wasn't nine pm or nine on the clock. It 617 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: was more like ten ten oh five when you were 618 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: looking at like my way I was standing, I was 619 00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: more at ten. Yeah, from legs at six back at ten. 620 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: That's how far over I was. It was bad, man. 621 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,400 Speaker 1: I felt really bad, and I felt really old, you know, 622 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: because my kids were sitting there and they were like, 623 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: are you okay, Dad, Dad? Are you okay? And I 624 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine. I was like, 625 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: all right, I'm an old man, Like I really am 626 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 1: an old man. Like I was walking, I had one 627 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 1: hand on my hip and the other one I was 628 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: like grabbing on stuff, you know, like you know how 629 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: you grab stuff to try to like pull yourself forward 630 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,359 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Like I really had an old 631 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: person moment. How was that? Sad? Sounds like an old person? Man? Yeah, 632 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 1: that was real. I threw that ice on it, and 633 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: you got a little decompression and I'm back feel better now. 634 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 1: Did Were you as banged up as Tiger Woods was 635 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: over the weekend? I no. My three legs seemed to 636 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 1: be in good, good, good tap like they I think 637 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:01,320 Speaker 1: theyre I'm able to walk like the elephant. No, that's 638 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,439 Speaker 1: able to move with ease, right now, that's a great point. Yeah, 639 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,760 Speaker 1: it's a really really great point. It is two pros 640 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: and a cup of Joe.

They got players punching each 649 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: other on the bench, and then they got another guy 650 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 1: punching a wall on his way out and breaking his hand. 651 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 1: It just last game of the season in the Minnesota 652 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 1: Timberwolves melted down and now they're going to be at 653 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: the Lakers to take on Lebron and company in the 654 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: playing game.

I don't know. Fee feels a bit unnecessary, 657 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,440 Speaker 1: It feels a little bit too gimmy key for me. 658 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: The way it's all structured. Would you rather than just 659 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 1: play a series and expand the playoffs and the more 660 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 1: of that format, what I would rather them do is 661 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: have the first round of the NBA Playoffs be a 662 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 1: shorter series three games, five games. I mean three games 663 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: would be fantastic, but five games, because I think it 664 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 1: would increase the intensity right off the bat instead of this, Yeah, 665 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,919 Speaker 1: somebody loses game one, big deal, you got another six 666 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 1: to play with. Well, you're still another two. You gotta win. 667 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. We've talked about this, you and 668 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,720 Speaker 1: I have for forever, since we first started working together. 669 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,800 Speaker 1: There's no way that any league is could have reduced 670 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:38,720 Speaker 1: the amount of games they play in the playoffs because 671 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,319 Speaker 1: TV partners know that's where the heavier advertising dollars are, 672 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: that's where the money's at, so they can't afford to 673 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: reduce it. I think these are always like small steps, 674 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: and they have a playing game of eventual expansion. So 675 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I mean, I personally like the sudden 676 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,400 Speaker 1: death field to it. Obviously, you know you've got a 677 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 1: team that you know is on the brink of being eliminated, 678 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 1: and so it makes for better television, it makes for 679 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 1: more drama. The problem is, you know, then you move 680 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,440 Speaker 1: on to these longer series where you don't have that 681 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 1: same sense of urgency, and not only to watch as 682 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 1: a viewer, but obviously as a player. And that is 683 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 1: like one of the other things that you noticed. I 684 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: think in basketball, especially the NBA, more than anything else, 685 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: there will be swings where you know, there's just it's 686 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 1: a blowout, Like a team gets up by twelve or fourteen, 687 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: they pull their starters, they rest them, They're like, all right, 688 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 1: this game's over. There's very few examples of a team 689 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 1: like playing their starters through the fourth quarter if they're 690 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: down by ten or twelve points, which in basketball that's 691 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: not that much. I mean, you you have runs all 692 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 1: the time, and so it does lend itself to have, 693 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 1: you know, some of those issues where you've got a 694 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 1: longer series, you've got guys who are you know, not 695 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: even playing come the fourth quarter because the game's all blowout, 696 00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 1: and you turn that on, you turn it right back off. 697 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's unfortunately, I think what's what's happened 698 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: with the NBA, at least in my opinion, with it, 699 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: It just it hasn't become appointment television these playing games though, 700 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: like they have. Like I actually I like the concept 701 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,799 Speaker 1: um amongst other things. But I think the NBA's really 702 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: gotta They've really got to start looking in the offseason 703 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: at figuring out how to change the game to make 704 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: it more appetizing for the viewer. I mean, I look 705 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 1: at what Baseball has done with the pitch clock, and 706 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: it's awesome. I mean, you might you know, you might 707 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 1: miss a portion of the game if you go get 708 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 1: up to go crab something to eat, come back down, 709 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: sit down, you might have miss an ending by then, 710 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 1: or even if you're sitting at the game, you go 711 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 1: to the bathroom, you come back, you miss an entire ending. 712 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 1: But it's still way more fun the pace if it's great, 713 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 1: I personally like it, and I think the NBA could 714 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 1: use some sort of I don't know, renaissances as far 715 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: as how they use their league. Maybe at elam ending 716 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 1: for the fourth quarter in the regular season every night, 717 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 1: then you've got highlights of a game winning shot, you know, 718 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: as opposed to teams up by twenty it's pretty much 719 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:57,840 Speaker 1: over that be good. Yeah, and look, you know, the 720 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,320 Speaker 1: whole load management thing I think is something you're always 721 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 1: gonna battle when you play that many games. I mean 722 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 1: you see it in baseball sometimes to a degree, right, 723 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 1: guys go on various dls. I mean, I'm not smart 724 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: enough to have an answer for you know how you 725 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 1: overcome that. I just I feel like you've got to 726 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,919 Speaker 1: figure out a way of at least making it more 727 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:21,879 Speaker 1: fun and having it more dramatic ending m at least 728 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 1: in the NBA right now, because I do feel like 729 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,399 Speaker 1: it's trailing mightily behind other professional sports. I mean, get 730 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: rid of guarantee contracts. You only want players to have 731 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 1: to players already have too much control. Look what happened 732 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: to Shaun Watson. He got a guaranteed contract. He sat 733 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: out like six games last year or something. Yeah, so 734 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: it's like, come on, that was load management, no pun 735 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:46,279 Speaker 1: intended load management gets out of control in Cleveland. We're 736 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,399 Speaker 1: gonna know why. Yes, I think it already did. Yeah, 737 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 1: his his load management has been managed for a long time. 738 00:39:53,120 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 1: I think we're already there. Unbelievable by the way. Um 739 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 1: so we let's go ahead now and preview the Dallas. 740 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 1: Say there's load at all, man. Some would say, let's 741 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 1: take as we continue our NBA playoff preview now to 742 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 1: the Dallas Mavericks. Oh, that's right, Dallas is not going 743 00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:19,279 Speaker 1: to be participating this year's playoffs, man oh man. And 744 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: so now there's what is the investigation complete into uh 745 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,239 Speaker 1: what Dallas did on Friday night where they sat five 746 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: players and just bat And the best part is is 747 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: the only reason Luca played at all is because it 748 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 1: was Slovenian Night. And so they all, right, come on, 749 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,959 Speaker 1: I go out there like the tip of the cap. 750 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: And then you got Jason Kid who's having to talk 751 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 1: afterwards about all the decisions the organization's making and all that. 752 00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 1: Just you made a trade to bring in Kyrie Irving, 753 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,800 Speaker 1: it didn't work out well, and now they're in this 754 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: spot where they've got to probably bring him back next 755 00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: year and pay him and try and redo this whole thing. 756 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 1: But if you had Kyrie Irving and Luke on the 757 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 1: same team and you can't even make the play in tournament, 758 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,600 Speaker 1: that is a disaster. And Jerry Jones has got to 759 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 1: be feeling so great about things because now finally there's 760 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 1: a bigger disaster than the Dallas Cowboys have been at 761 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: certain points over the past couple of years and it's 762 00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 1: the Mavericks. So at least they got some company there. 763 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,359 Speaker 1: It's just crazy how they weren't until Kyrie got there, 764 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,359 Speaker 1: and it's just everything fell apart. Man, you think maybe 765 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,399 Speaker 1: it's him, Maybe maybe there's something that Kyrie Irving brings 766 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: to the table that just his problems did they Yeah, 767 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 1: I believe so, Yeah, it's um But where Kyrie just 768 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:40,360 Speaker 1: come from? You know, Brooklyn, you know it's a little Brooklyn. 769 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, the previous team, the Celtics made 770 00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: the playoffs. The previous team before that, the Cleveland Cavaliers 771 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: made the playoffs. It feels like every team, uh, somehow 772 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:53,839 Speaker 1: has figured it out. And by the way, how about 773 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 1: your Calves. Huh the four seed, they're fun to watch man, 774 00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: good defensive team, getting Donovan Mitchell, good efensive team. But 775 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: they've drafted well, they've they've kind of found the right 776 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: pieces to make it work. You know, that's a team 777 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 1: that that'll be a you know, a contender. They'll they'll 778 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 1: definitely be in the mix. But yeah, I mean it's 779 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 1: been awesome since seeing Donovan Mitchell joint. Yeah. So the 780 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: NBA playoffs are here and they should wrap up sometime 781 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 1: by about November.
