Let's 91 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: just run it out and just extend it as far 92 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 1: as we can. Let's just keep going. 93 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 4: Don't hate the player, hate the game. 94 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: Speaking of extensions, big news today. If I said to you. Hey, 95 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: guess who's going to be the highest paid player in 96 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: the history of the game per year by the end 97 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: of the day today. 98 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 7: I'm so excited it. 99 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: Maybe you would have gotten to this person. Maybe not. However, 100 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: uh Shamsterrania just putting this out about a half hour ago. 101 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: Devin Booker has agreed to a two year, one hundred 102 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: and forty five million dollars maximum extension with the Suns 103 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: through the twenty twenty nine twenty thirty season. Now, this 104 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: money that he is getting puts him just above Shake 105 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: Gildess Alexander for the richest contract ever Shake Gildess Alexander 106 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: seventy one point two five million dollars a year. And 107 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: now you have Devin Booker who is getting two more 108 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: years because Phoenix is desperate to keep their stars. He's 109 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: now getting the most money per year in the history 110 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: of the NBA, history of the league. 111 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 5: I mean, it sounds crazy, but I think Devin Booker 112 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 5: realizes the situation and he's like, all right, we don't 113 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 5: control our draft picks for the next seven years. We're 114 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 5: kind of screwed, but I can make money hang out 115 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,719 Speaker 5: here in Phoenix whatever. Clearly he doesn't care about winning. 116 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: He's it's not like the sun Set. You know, he 117 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 1: made the Sun's game. You walk in with a bunch 118 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: of guys and saying, Hey, you're gonna pay me now 119 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: or I'm gonna wreck this place. This is such a 120 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: crack my knuckles. Why did you hear me crack my 121 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: knuckles doing that's tough?

He should be all right, 125 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: let's go. 126 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 4: No, you're right. 127 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 5: He was not this New York gangster mob Mooster that 128 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 5: came in and took this money. It's the situation that 129 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 5: he is in, and I want to blame him. But 130 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 5: at the same time, I'm like, what else is suppused? 131 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: You wouldn't say no. 132 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 4: I would. I wouldn't say no. 133 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: The Fox Sports radio say hey, Monci, here's two years, 134 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty five million dollars. 135 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 4: I would say, I'll take one forty four.

I know, I hear what you're saying. 143 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 5: Says. I'm not blaming him because in other situations we 144 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 5: would be like, oh, you should probably take a pay 145 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 5: cut to make your team better, Lebron James, you know 146 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 5: you should probably take a pay cut. But for him, 147 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 5: I don't think there's another scenario for him, Like he 148 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 5: doesn't want to leave. 149 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 4: They don't want him to leave. The Sons have no 150 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 4: other option. 151 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 5: Like you said, we got to keep someone here because 152 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 5: we don't know the future. The few sure looks real 153 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 5: dark for the Suns with this Western Conference. They know 154 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 5: they don't need one move, they need twenty seven moves 155 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 5: to all of a sudden be competitive. 156 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 4: So I think they're just like, all right, we're screwed. 157 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 5: We'll keep our star. People will keep coming to see 158 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 5: Devin Booker. Devin Booker's like, all. 159 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 4: Right, I don't have to go anywhere that's cold. I'll 160 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 4: hang out here, make a lot of money, and see 161 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 4: you guys in two years see where we're at. 162 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: This sounds like okay, I'd love for us to get divorced, 163 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: but we can't. Yes, you're the only one working right now. 164 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: I'm you know, I'm not worried. We have our you know, 165 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,119 Speaker 1: our son. We got it. We got one kid getting 166 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: ready to go to college. Our daughter's going to be 167 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: going in three years. We can't sell the house because 168 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: we're underwater on it. So okay, we're just gonna have 169 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: to be together for the next couple of years because 170 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: leaving doesn't help either of us. 171 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's perfect. 172 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: That would be exactly what it is. That's exactly what 173 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: it is. That's you hit it right on the money. 174 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 4: The house is Bradley Bial right now. 175 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: The house we can't house. 176 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 4: Let's Bradley Beial. 177 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: We have a bad real tor. He can't sell this 178 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: out now. But look, there's there's no it's the Suns 179 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 1: and they have tried a lot of different things. There's 180 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: worse things than building around Devin Booker. Right, he's one 181 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: of one of only two. He and Giannis are the 182 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: only guys in the last seven years to average over 183 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: twenty five a game every year. So there's worse than 184 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: building around him. Obviously, you give him a lot of 185 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: money it's less to get other players, but hey, you 186 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: just got to find the right formula. But you know, 187 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: so here's the money for Devin Booker. Now you want 188 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: to get bigger than this for Devin Booker. Right, And this, 189 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: this is going to wind up being my greatest bull 190 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: prediction that I've ever made, because two years ago when 191 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: when Jokic signed his extension a couple of years ago, 192 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: and the last year he was making sixty two million 193 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: a year. Right now, this this extension that he no 194 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: longer wants, that he wants a new one next year 195 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: so he can make in the eighty like eighty one 196 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: million a year at the end, right by twenty thirty, okay, 197 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: by the year twenty third, we're twenty twenty five. Right now, 198 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: in the summer twenty twenty five, there will be an 199 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: NBA player making one hundred million dollars a year. Someone's 200 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: going to sign a contract that's going to be four 201 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars a year. And again, we talked 202 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: about this last night because Yo Kicic was, hey, he 203 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: wants to opt out so we can sign a bigger 204 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: deal next year, and he would be in the eighties 205 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: for his final he would be in like eighty four 206 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: million a year for the last year or two whatever 207 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: it could wind up being for him. So now you're 208 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: talking about a year from now, Jokis jumps from seventy 209 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: two to eighty four. So I got four years. I 210 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: bet it happened before that. Devin Booker got seventy two. Man, 211 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: how many guys in the league on a I need more 212 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: money than that. It'll probably be Wemby. It'll probably be 213 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: win because you're talking about in five years, there's gonna 214 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: be somebody who's twenty four twenty five gonna get that 215 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: kind of money. But someone one hundred million dollars a year. 216 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: I thought it could happen in the NFL too, But 217 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: you know, now we see that salaries are being controlled 218 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 1: a little bit morech we'll get to in a few minutes. 219 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: So I thought maybe a quarterback would get there, but 220 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: probably not. By then. They're growing a little bit more incrementally. 221 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: But by twenty thirty, if Devin Booker is getting seventy 222 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: two million dollars a year now for the last couple 223 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: of years of his contract extension, someone's gonna sign by 224 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: twenty thirty for one hundred million dollars a year. Oh 225 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: yehe hundred million. 226 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 5: Anyway, I don't even know how to process that right now, 227 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,559 Speaker 5: because I think you're on I think you're on it. 228 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 5: I don't. 229 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 4: I don't think this is that crazy of a take. 230 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 4: It really isn't. 231 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 5: And that's the crazy side of it, that. 232 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 4: This seems like right on par with what we're gonna see. 233 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 5: I was gonna say, maybe even Luka Doncic could get 234 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 5: up there if he continues to could get closer. 235 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,719 Speaker 1: He keep in shape, another couple of good years and maybe. 236 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 4: Sure, Wamma's a great one. That is ridiculous to think about. 237 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 5: So when you put it that way, do you think 238 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 5: the Phoenix Suns were smart in doing this? 239 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: Now? Well, I always think anybody who wants to see 240 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 1: somebody you sign a guy early because the contract's just 241 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: gonna get more money. Anybody that doesn't do stuff like this, 242 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 1: you could tell they're scared. So at least Phoenix has 243 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: been aggressive. You could talk about managed piece, a guy 244 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: he guys, opens up his computer every day and see 245 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: somebody says, oh, I didn't know this, Let's go get 246 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: this guy, Let's go spend this money. Right, there's worse 247 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 1: owners to have the ones that gets scared of stuff 248 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 1: and say, ooh, I don't know, it's a lot of money, 249 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 1: and maybe we can get him on the cheap. If 250 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: he has kind of a down year, it's like, Okay, 251 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: that's just not gonna work. So yeah, locking him in now, 252 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: by the time would come up to he's thirty two 253 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: years old, coming up for the next deal, it would 254 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: be more money. It would be a longer time for 255 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: more money. So yeah, locking him in for the next 256 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: four years of his prime, which are gonna take him 257 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: into thirty two. You're thirty two to thirty three. Okay, Now, 258 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: you just got to get it right. Right, you said 259 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: you have to get it right. Building around him, they 260 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: were aggressive. They thought KD was coming. Obviously, Kevin Durant 261 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: hasn't led anybody to anything in six years. I could 262 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: have told you that, but hey, you know, Matt just 263 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: Bea didn't call me. Bradley Beal's gonna come. Now you're stuck. Okay, 264 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: Now he's got the no trou Okay, that's great. But 265 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: at least they're being aggressive. So I enjoy the aggressiveness 266 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: of it because I'm never gonna fault someone for that. 267 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: It's just okay, you want to be able to make 268 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: the right decisions, keep flexibility, But I mean, who else 269 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: are you gonna give that money to? Right? Devin Booker 270 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: one of the best pure scorers in the game. Clearly. 271 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: I feel like he's kind of on the Damian Lillard 272 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: path where we're gonna be talking about him and he's 273 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: gonna keep scoring twenty five a game and the Sons 274 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: are gonna keep losing and by the time he gets 275 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: at thirty two to thirty three, we're gonna say the 276 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: same thing with Lillard. Boy, I wish he would get 277 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: to another team, right, just like because that was the 278 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: way with Damian Liard, Like like like a few nights 279 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: NBA Nights year he would go for like forty five 280 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 1: and on the show, we'd go, man, nobody else care. 281 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 1: No one's gonna be talking about this tomorrow because it's 282 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: late at night. It's the Blazers and the Kings or 283 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 1: the Blazers, and no one's gonna do. Would love Lillard 284 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: to get to another team. That's gonna be the same 285 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: thing for Devin Booker, boy, he's a biggs. Would love 286 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: to see him get to another team at some point. 287 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: That's what we're saying for him. 288 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 5: I totally hear the comparison, although it was I feel 289 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 5: like it was a little different because right now, the 290 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 5: Suns like, you're I don't expect you to do any 291 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 5: damage in the Western Conference. 292 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 4: In the next two years. If I'm being completely honest, 293 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 4: you've got to make sense. 294 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: Don't sell them short. Two years, maybe maybe ten, maybe 295 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: twelve fifteen, still sell them short. 296 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 5: I feel like with Portland there was a bit of hope, 297 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 5: like they were putting pieces around Damian Lillard and it's again, 298 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,199 Speaker 5: it did not go the way that they thought, but. 299 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 4: I feel like there was hope. There's no hope with 300 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 4: the Sons right now. 301 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: Right now, what happens next the Sons get a first 302 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: round pick or the Mets get done paying Bobby Benia. Okay, 303 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: because that's twenty thirty five. Okay, that's twenty thirty five. 304 00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 4: It's gonna be. 305 00:11:59,160 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: It's close. 306 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 4: It's real close. 307 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 5: It's close because they don't have control over their picks 308 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 5: for seven years, so it's like it's not it's not 309 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 5: looking good for them. So it's a little bit different 310 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 5: with the Portland and the Blazer situation with with Lillard, 311 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 5: but it does seem like it's going in that direction 312 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 5: where it's like he's gonna keep having a great career, 313 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 5: but that's as far as it's gonna go. 314 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it seems success is not looking good 315 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 4: for him. 316 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: No, it's it's it's always hard, and it's kind of 317 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: the philosophy of you want to build a team when 318 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 1: your quarterback is on a rookie contract, So that's when 319 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: you have the money to be able to pay other players, 320 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: and you know your quarterbacks still making money in theory, 321 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: but hey, while Jalen Hurts is on his rookie deal 322 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 1: or someone else is on their rookie deal, hey we 323 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 1: can win now. And that's great. If you don't, okay, 324 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 1: it gets a little bit tougher because you're paying your 325 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: quarterback now, so it's harder to go out and get 326 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: other players. So yeah, it's a lot tougher in the NBA, 327 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: but you have to keep your big players. You can't. 328 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 1: You can't win in the NBA without stars, you don't. 329 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: You No one wins a championship without at least two superstars. Yeah, 330 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: it doesn't happen anymore that way. That that's kind of 331 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: how it goes.

We're gonna do a big story. I'm gonna 447 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 1: tell you why fans don't care. Is this Kirk Cousins. 448 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 1: It's not. No, we'll get I know, I I know, 449 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: we talked before the show. We'll get to your discovery 450 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: that Kirk Cousins is overpaid later on. No, we'll get 451 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: to that. It'n't get me start on Matt Ryanry. Apparently 452 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: Pablo Torri, who was you know, seen on ESPN for 453 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: the last few years, Suddenly he's now turning into the 454 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: new mark for ne Ruwata investigative reporter. 455 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 3: Uh. 456 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: That is going to blow the lid off the stories, 457 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: whether we want them or not. Because you know, we 458 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: had the whole thing about Bill Belichick and Jordan Hudson 459 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: a few weeks ago, and I remember hearing that going, 460 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: I don't get why why is he looking into this? 461 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 1: This is just weird. There's no crime, there's no anything. 462 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: It's just weird. Why is this taking up all this time? 463 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: But there is something else taking up this time, obviously 464 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: on the Pablo Tory Finds Out podcast, in which there 465 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 1: is evidence now well that the NFL and senior leaders 466 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 1: of the NFL Player Association committed collusion together. There was 467 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: an agreement between the NFL and the NFLPA to limit 468 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: the restricted guaranteed money in player contracts. So basically what 469 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: happened was everybody got mad when Jimmy Hasselm decided, oh 470 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: we need a quarterback. Hey, to Sean Watson, you don't 471 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 1: want to be here at all? Do you know? But 472 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: what if we guaranteed every penny of your contract? Well 473 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: then I want to go. Okay, great, So all of 474 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 1: that money guaranteed to a guy coming off an awful 475 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: story and an awful headline, and I don't even know 476 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: what to say at that point where how you can 477 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: redeem anything? Where yeah, you went through all of this, 478 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 1: but here's two hundred and fifty million dollars guaranteed. So 479 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: a lot of people were upset about this, right and 480 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: now apparently there's evidence that both the NFL and the 481 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: Player Association colluded to keep the guaranteed money from skyrocketing. 482 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: So ensuing years, Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen Mahomes, all these 483 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 1: guys got new contracts, and so now they can suddenly say, 484 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,479 Speaker 1: wait a minute, we could sue the league, we can 485 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: declare free agent, we can do maybe, we can do 486 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: a lot of things, because now there's evidence that both 487 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: sides colluded to keep that going. Now, there's two takeaways 488 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: from this right before one takeawy, before you get to 489 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: why why fans don't care? Number one is that, man, 490 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: if I'm a player and I go, wait a minute, 491 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: I understand the NFL colluding with the owners saying we 492 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: don't want to keep that, we don't want to keep 493 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: this money. How do you keep that from the players. Hey, 494 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: we're gonna make we're gonna take care of you. I 495 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: get that you have to work together, there's symbiosis there, 496 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 1: but you work for the players and you keep this 497 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: and you keep this quiet Like this is where you 498 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: have to just clear out everybody leading the NFLPA and 499 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: find new leadership because they're supposed to be working for 500 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: the players and instead, Yeah, we kind of had this 501 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 1: agreement that we're gonna limit the guaranteed money and salaries. Wow, 502 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: I can't believe NFL players are They haven't all just 503 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 1: storm three four five Park Avenue and said, Okay, something's 504 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: got to happen, right like Frankenstein. They're all with torches 505 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: at the end, going throw them down, throw them down 506 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 1: at I can't believe that hasn't happened yet. 507 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 4: You are not wrong. 508 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,400 Speaker 5: When I read the story, that's all I cared about, 509 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,640 Speaker 5: because you're right, what don't. 510 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 4: Fans care about? I don't care or am I. 511 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 5: Surprised that the owners want this and wanted to control 512 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 5: right guaranteed money. But the NFLPA, huh huh? What else 513 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 5: are you colluding? What else are you hiding? 514 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 4: What else have you withheld details to the players about? 515 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 3: You know? 516 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 5: That's what The next question is, what else have you 517 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 5: kept from us? What else have you not done in 518 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 5: our favor when you were supposed to be fighting for us? 519 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 5: Because if not, then what's the point here? Very it's 520 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 5: very disappointing, I'm sure as a player to read that, 521 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 5: but as the owners, It's like, I'm not surprised about that. 522 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 5: I'm not surprised that the owners are doing this. 523 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: All the owners are. I'm sure the owners are mad. 524 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: They got found out, absolutely mad they found out. 525 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 4: That you found out that they were in on it. 526 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: Yeah now, yeah now everybody, but all the anger is 527 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: really going to wind up going to the NFLPA because 528 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: I think people are got well. Of course NFL wants 529 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: to keep salaries down. I'm sure they all taught. Hey, 530 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: there's collusion for different times for keeping money down, whether 531 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: it keeping Colin Kaepernick out of the league, wherever you want, wherever, 532 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: whatever side you come down on that. But to hear 533 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: that though the players Association is doing this is this 534 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: is where like this is like if if you were 535 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: being defended for a crime and at the end the 536 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,959 Speaker 1: lawyer says, hey, I uh, you know, you gotta take this. 537 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: You gotta take a deal. I'm not I can't get 538 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: you off. You gotta take a deal. Okay, what is it. 539 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,959 Speaker 1: So you gotta do five years? Oh okay, great, and 540 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: then five years go by and you find out oh yeah, yeah, 541 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 1: maybe they're the prosecutor. We just didn't want to try 542 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,679 Speaker 1: the case. We were tired of going on vacation, so 543 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: we just struck a deal with each other that yeah, 544 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: you were gonna get five years, and that was it, 545 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 1: and I wasn't gonna try. I had a lot of 546 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: evidence I could have got I could have got you off. Yeah, 547 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,719 Speaker 1: I got DNA, I had everything. Man, you didn't do this. 548 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 1: I know you didn't do it, but boy, it would 549 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: have been a lot of money and waiting for the 550 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: lab to come in and you know, we had this 551 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 1: vacation book to Egypt with Aaron Rodgers and it was 552 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: such a bit there. We really didn't do it. That's 553 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 1: that's finding this out. Now, you're supposed to be for me, 554 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: you're supposed to be well, nope, but they're not. 555 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 5: No, they're not and probably making money themselves out of 556 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 5: this deal. That's the other side of it. It's like, 557 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 5: you agreed to this for what perk? What did you 558 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 5: get out of this? Because this is a big deal. 559 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 4: The minute it came out, you knew this was gonna 560 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 4: hit the fan. 561 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,479 Speaker 5: For you, not the owners, because again we expect this 562 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 5: from the owners. In a sport where injury can be 563 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 5: so high, it's very different than in other sports. Kind 564 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 5: of like you said in the last hour that you 565 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 5: thought maybe in the NFL one hundred million dollar contract 566 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,199 Speaker 5: annually could be a thing, but because of injuries and 567 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 5: the demanding physical toll that this sport takes, it's very 568 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 5: different from the NBA. But none of this is surprising 569 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 5: from the owners. Nobody is now looking at their owners differently. 570 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 5: Now they're just looking at the people they trusted them 571 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 5: most differently. And that's like worst case scenario out of 572 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 5: this story. 573 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: Can't trust anybody, can't trust anybody. 574 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 4: And it's like, what did you get out of this? 575 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,160 Speaker 5: You didn't just agree to this without getting anything out 576 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 5: of it? So you got the money that was guaranteed 577 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 5: for me? 578 00:23:58,240 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? 579 00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 4: Instead? 580 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, or I'm not. The thing is that we're right. 581 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: What does this open the flag door? 582 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 4: Yes, because it's not just one. 583 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 5: When there's one ant, you know, there's not one ant, 584 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 5: there's hundreds of ants. 585 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 4: That's always what I've been told my mom. But there's one, 586 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 4: you know, there's a lot, so handle it. So there's 587 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 4: one here, there's a lot more. 588 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: But I don't want to keep looking. 589 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 4: And that's the thing. I don't want to look. No, 590 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 4: keep looking. 591 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 5: She get that spray out, that raid spray out and 592 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:27,880 Speaker 5: handle your business. 593 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, but but they're the red ants. They bite you. 594 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you have to. You got to get out there. 595 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, pants on, No, that's red. 596 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. 597 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: You get out there and you kill every ant until 598 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: but I don't want to do it, But you do it, 599 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: or you're not eating tonight. All right, Fine, going out 600 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: to kill the ads. 601 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 4: I got them all, mom. 602 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: So now the other part of it is, this is 603 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: one of the biggest reactions I would say of this 604 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: is boy, I can't believe it's not a bigger story, right, 605 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: I said, like, I can't. How is this not a 606 00:24:58,240 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: bigger story? Like that was a big thing that I 607 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: most of the day on social media? How is this? 608 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: How is this not a big deal? How more people 609 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 1: not care about this? And like, you know what, it's 610 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: a very inside baseball thing where okay, we're keeping salaries 611 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: down and people understand. I'm not saying people don't understand 612 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 1: it because certain things, okay, a little too much where 613 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: you know, I only have so much ram in my 614 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: head for stories and stuff and what I care about 615 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: what I don't. Okay, But this is a case where 616 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: if you ask the average fan, hey, are you outraged 617 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 1: over this? The average fan is gonna say players get 618 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: paid too much? Anyway? What do I care? I mean, really, 619 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: I'm supposed to be upset that Joe Burrow couldn't get 620 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 1: three hundred and ten million and had to settle for 621 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy five million, right or wrong? People 622 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: don't care. People don't care about that they've done. Players 623 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 1: have been overpaid since we since we knew what salaries 624 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: players were making. I'm sure in the forties and the fifties, 625 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,160 Speaker 1: if there was sports talk radio and you found out 626 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: that players, you know, hey, so and so signed such 627 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: a big contract in baseball, he doesn't have to take 628 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: a second job in the offseason selling shoes, which is 629 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 1: what a lot of players today was like, Oh, he's 630 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: overpaid if he has need to work in the off season. 631 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: I know guys, they are shoe salesmen, they were construction 632 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: they do this, they work in the tax office. I'm 633 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: sure you would have found fans back then, all this 634 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: guy's way overpaid. He's getting five hundred dollars a year. 635 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: That's way too much money. I mean, fans generally think 636 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,959 Speaker 1: athletes are over as much as they love sports, much 637 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 1: as we love sports. Mostly we care about the money, 638 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: and fans care about the money when it comes to 639 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 1: being able to sign other players, right, I don't care 640 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: what it costs. I want to be able to bring 641 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: in player X, or I want to be able to 642 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: have enough money in the salary cap to bring in 643 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:37,879 Speaker 1: an edge rusher, you know, a box safety, a running back, whatever, 644 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: that's where we care about money for But this money, Oh, 645 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: so players couldn't get paid money. You're talking about the 646 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: upper one tenth of one percent of players in the 647 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 1: NFL that have kept salaries down. Because are they really 648 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 1: talking about keeping salaries down for a guy who's gonna 649 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 1: sign for two years and four million. No, But it's 650 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,679 Speaker 1: the big top end guys, the big quarterbacks that are 651 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: out there that we're going to reset the market. And 652 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure the owners saw that. Okay, here comes Lamar 653 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 1: and Burrow and Mahomes and all, Okay, let's make sure 654 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: we take care of this. But generally, yeah, this is 655 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 1: not gonna be something that you're gonna whip fans up 656 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 1: in a frenzy because that's ninety percent of the fans 657 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 1: are gonna say, hey, I don't care. I don't care. 658 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: And if we were doing the show for the players, 659 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: it'd be different.

I mean, I understand it 715 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: in theory. I understand it in theory, but in the end, 716 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: what you got to say, Okay, if it gets out, 717 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 1: and look, the NFL has done a pretty good job 718 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: of keeping things secret that they don't want out. But yes, 719 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 1: if this gets out, if the shield is not protected 720 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: and this gets out, because it always that happens once 721 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: in a while in every zombie movie. You think you 722 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: have a great, great defense, but all you need is 723 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: one crazy ass zombie to make it through a one 724 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: guy to fall asleep or one guy to leave and 725 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: go to the bathroom, and one zombie gets through when suddenly, awe, 726 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: now we got a problem, right like episode two of 727 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: the Last of Us.

And now Joel's 730 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: going to pay the ultimate price. So there's so there's that. Yeah, 731 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: but it's a while people know that by now. 732 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 4: Also spoiler it's not good here. 733 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, So I mean, like, if that gets you understand 734 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: that you could ruin so many things, like the is 735 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: the risk versus the reward here of now the players 736 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 1: are going to say, we need all new elected officials. 737 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 1: We need to rip up this collective bargaining agreement and 738 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: get a new one. That's the first thing I would 739 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 1: do if I was one of the players in charge, 740 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: I would say, we got to rip up this CBA 741 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: and sign a new one because we don't know what 742 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: else is going on. We need a new CBA ratified 743 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: right now.

And now the Dodgers have 909 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 1: lost six in a row. So we have to have 910 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,720 Speaker 1: the conversation we had coming off the three games sweep 911 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: at the hands of the Astros. They concerned about the 912 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: Dodgers right e Look obviously between the Dodger and the Yankees, 913 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 1: the two big high profile teams, more concerned about the 914 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: Yankees because they're just not as good the Dodgers. This 915 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,399 Speaker 1: is where I feel. I'm out with the Dodgers right now. 916 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 1: Losing six in a row. Their big thing is going 917 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 1: to be, oh, are they gonna wind up with the 918 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,320 Speaker 1: best record of the National League right making the playoffs 919 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 1: and being ready to go that That's not gonna be 920 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 1: the question. But I gotta say I do not fear 921 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: the Dodgers like I did last year. I think the 922 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: average fan I like that Mets fan I don't fear 923 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,359 Speaker 1: the Dodgers right now. We already beat them four out 924 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 1: of seven, so okay, just like that in the NLCS, 925 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 1: we'll have so it would be fantastic. So I no 926 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 1: longer I don't fear the Dodgers. Yes, they have injury issues, 927 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,239 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be getting back healthy at some point. 928 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 1: But you know, when you're midway through the season and 929 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,919 Speaker 1: you're saying, hey, we're hoping to get healthy, it's kind 930 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: of what it is, a hope because if a players 931 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: have been out for that long, who knows how they're 932 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: gonna come back. Yes, Glasdell came back today. Any pitch, well, okay, great, 933 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 1: but you're clearly not quite the same team you were 934 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: a year ago. Tani's not having quite the same year. 935 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: Mookie Betts has not been very good. Will Smith has 936 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 1: been great, right a catcher hitting three thirty a phenomenal year. 937 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,800 Speaker 1: But I don't fear the Dodgers like I have the 938 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: last couple of years. I'm not going into a playoff 939 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,359 Speaker 1: series thinking it's been a great run. Maybe if something 940 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,799 Speaker 1: happens we get lucky. No, I'm going in thinking we 941 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: can win this. They are they are beatable. We can 942 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: beat the Dodgers in a series in the playoffs. It 943 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: doesn't mean we're going. 944 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, Chip, Chip, cheerio over there to Johnson Cherio, 945 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 5: congratulations to him. 946 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 1: I completely understand that was very sarcastic. I don't think 947 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 1: you really meant to congratulation. 948 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 4: I hope you got it. 949 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: I hope he got it. 950 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 5: You are not wrong in that feeling, Jason, because right now, 951 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 5: a team like the Dodgers, we're on paper, no team 952 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,880 Speaker 5: that has that type of roster should lose six in 953 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 5: a row. So right now, yeah, they look very normal, 954 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 5: very human, and I think last year for a second 955 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:31,920 Speaker 5: they did it. 956 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 4: There are issues. 957 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 5: You're right, I'm not worried about the Dodgers making the playoffs. No, 958 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 5: they're gonna make the playoffs, that's not the question. But 959 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 5: they these issues are real. I don't know, Muki, you know, 960 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 5: struggling going to shortstop, Like there are plays where he 961 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:47,760 Speaker 5: looks really good. 962 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 4: And then there are plays where he doesn't look that great. 963 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,520 Speaker 5: Poor Freddy Freeman has to save a lot of the 964 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 5: balls thrown at his way at first base, not just 965 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 5: from Mookie Bets. That is something that's a real question. 966 00:39:58,120 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 5: They also got had no one this last year was 967 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 5: our star and he had a great start to the year. 968 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 5: He's dipped off. We want him to come back. There's 969 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 5: a lot of players that we're hoping to come back 970 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 5: to their high potential, but it's a lot. And then 971 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 5: with Shoho Tani, like now you're pitching and you're hitting, 972 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 5: has taken a dip, understandably so and I hate that 973 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 5: the All Star break is actually coming right now, specifically 974 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 5: for Shoheo Toni. He's trying to get in a rhythm 975 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 5: of pitching and hitting, and now you're about to take 976 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 5: a break, So that rhythm is going to take a break, 977 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:29,239 Speaker 5: and that's not great for him. 978 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:29,919 Speaker 3: Uh. 979 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 4: Freddie Freeman right now. 980 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 5: He has this whole this whole month of July has 981 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 5: like fifty strikeouts career, He's like a twenty percent when 982 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 5: it comes to strikeouts right now, fifty percent. Like they're 983 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 5: just swinging that stuff. So they look very normal, very human. 984 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 5: You should feel like they're not scary.

So apparently 1008 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: the NFLPA is not working for the players. A big 1009 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 1: bombshell of the story today by Pablo Torri that you 1010 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:03,520 Speaker 1: first brought this to light a couple of weeks ago. 1011 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:08,800 Speaker 1: There was collusion between the NFL and the NFL Players 1012 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: Association to limit guaranteed money to players and contracts. Basically, 1013 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 1: this stemmed from Deshaun Watson getting his entire contract guaranteed 1014 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: and the owners didn't want that. And apparently with all 1015 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,240 Speaker 1: the new contracts coming up of Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson, 1016 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:28,759 Speaker 1: the NFL and the NFLPA worked together to keep the 1017 00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 1: salaries down and these guys signed big contracts in the 1018 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 1: last couple of years, and maybe they could have wound 1019 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 1: up getting more money. I can't believe that this is 1020 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: the nflpa's supposed to work for the players and this. Hey, 1021 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 1: sorry about that, guys. Yeah, we screwed you. We screwed 1022 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 1: you on getting some money. But yeah, we work with 1023 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,240 Speaker 1: the owners on this. Wait what you're supposed to represent 1024 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 1: me against the owners? Nah? 1025 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1026 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,919 Speaker 1: But ah, can you really be mad?

Yeah, we had 1033 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,719 Speaker 1: a really bad couple of days there when when I 1034 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: disappeared and showed up and there was lipstick all over 1035 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: my collars of all my shirts. 1036 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:18,120 Speaker 5: But great, yeah, overall, what what greg would you give me? 1037 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:19,040 Speaker 1: Minus? 1038 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 4: I mean, that's pretty good.

I 1048 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 1: have to say Hall of Fame voter because it's a 1049 00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 1: very serious topic going to talk about here with the NFLPA. 1050 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 1: It is Jason Cole. J Cole, what's happening? Man? 1051 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 3: Oh man? I just feel so good whenever I hear this, 1052 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 3: realizing the Jets will never win, well. 1053 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 2: Oh so bad. 1054 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 1: Maybe maybe I want to sue the NFL. There's collusion 1055 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 1: in keeping the Stets from winning. Maybe there's collusion. 1056 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,279 Speaker 3: Take collision to keep the Jets from winning. That's not 1057 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 3: that doesn't require effort. I mean, come on, just watching 1058 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 3: Woody work is is magic. 1059 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 1: We had Rogers and Adams and Wilson last year we said, 1060 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,799 Speaker 1: I think there's collusion. I didn't think about that. 1061 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 3: Some boy moving along, moving along to more viable subject. 1062 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,160 Speaker 1: To this store today. What'd you make of this today? 1063 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,879 Speaker 3: Oh? I think that the NFL players doociations should clean 1064 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 3: the house, like everybody should be fired, like just like 1065 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 3: burn baby burns, just burn the whole building down. This 1066 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 3: is I mean, this is a serious subject, right, That's. 1067 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:57,800 Speaker 1: Why that's why I introduced you as a Hall of 1068 00:44:57,840 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 1: Same voter, because it's a serious subject. 1069 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 3: This is a this is a very serious subject. When 1070 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:07,919 Speaker 3: you hide the kind of information that they hid from 1071 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 3: their own players, you've done such a you've you've forgotten 1072 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 3: the purpose of why you exist and the fact that 1073 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 3: they hit it for six months and agreed to and 1074 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 3: they're not even defending the logic that they put out 1075 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 3: there of why they why they didn't want to put 1076 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 3: the information out there, like they directly basically admitted you're wrong. 1077 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 3: Because they announced today, Oh, we're filing a grievance against 1078 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 3: we're you know, we're we're we're asking for a redo. Right, 1079 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 3: they're appealing, they're appealing the decision. Well, why don't you 1080 00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 3: appeal it like the first week? Number one? Why number two? 1081 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 3: Why did you agree to keep this secret from your 1082 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:57,120 Speaker 3: own players? Like you went out and found all this 1083 00:45:57,239 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 3: kind of information and granted there said they didn't commit 1084 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:08,799 Speaker 3: collusion technically, but he provided so much damaging evidence. And 1085 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 3: this was so much was gathered and exposed in this 1086 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 3: that that all the agents could have lined up and said, 1087 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 3: we're going to threaten to do things if you don't 1088 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,479 Speaker 3: give us what you want. They would have been the league. 1089 00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 3: We'd have been back teddling so badly from this report 1090 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 3: becoming public that we're talking about not you know, a 1091 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 3: few million dollars, you know, we're talking about hundreds of 1092 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:38,479 Speaker 3: millions of dollars just this year in lock money from 1093 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,720 Speaker 3: lost leverage. Because if you take the top hundred free agents, 1094 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:45,399 Speaker 3: and I think they're probably there's probably somewhere in the area, 1095 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:48,399 Speaker 3: what four hundred free agents every year, right, and some 1096 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 3: of them, you know, get one hundred million dollar deals 1097 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 3: or you know, one hundred and fifteen million dollar deals, 1098 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,319 Speaker 3: and some of them will get you know, three three 1099 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 3: million dollars for one year, but almost all of them 1100 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 3: are struggling to get some kind of guaranteed money in 1101 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 3: those deals, and they and buy and large those deals 1102 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 3: get less than half in guaranteed money. And I know 1103 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 3: that most fans are listening to a strong I don't here. 1104 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 3: Those guys get paid millions to play a game and 1105 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 3: blah blah blah. Right they say that, But like guys 1106 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,280 Speaker 3: put their their bodies on the line in this sport, 1107 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,959 Speaker 3: and the biggest struggle that they have is to get 1108 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 3: the money that they bargained for, and most of them 1109 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 3: don't get even forty or fifty percent of the money 1110 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 3: that they technically have wrapped up in contact and their unions, 1111 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:41,320 Speaker 3: the people who are supposed to fight for them, didn't 1112 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:45,319 Speaker 3: give them ammunition to get more guaranteed money. So this 1113 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 3: to me is again clean house. Everybody in that place 1114 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,800 Speaker 3: should go with no exception. 1115 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 4: But would the Shield allow that? 1116 00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:02,879 Speaker 5: Wouldn't that bring more problems? Meeting that that went down, 1117 00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 5: you know what I mean, Like a meeting that that 1118 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 5: went down because they fired everybody. Wouldn't the Shield want 1119 00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:11,360 Speaker 5: to protect that? 1120 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 3: The League doesn't say over the union. The Shield can do, 1121 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,280 Speaker 3: it can say whatever it wants, but in this case 1122 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 3: the Shield has to shut up because the Shield was 1123 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,720 Speaker 3: if the shield says anything that only adds to the coin, 1124 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 3: that only adds to the damages that could be could 1125 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 3: eventually come on to them if they try to do 1126 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 3: anything that protects this group. I'm just saying that this 1127 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:46,400 Speaker 3: is this is so such an an impeachable offense. This 1128 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 3: is so such malfeasance on such a mactive level. And 1129 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:54,880 Speaker 3: that's why again, this is normally we're talking about cowboy beings, 1130 00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:59,280 Speaker 3: and I know that cowboys beats are Okay, we're talking 1131 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 3: about Jerry Jones and the beekeeper hat, which is very important. Okay, 1132 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:08,480 Speaker 3: I know where that place is right, But at this 1133 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:10,839 Speaker 3: moment in time, when you're talking about an issue, this 1134 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 3: this essential to negotiation, Like everybody has to go like 1135 00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 3: you had it, you had those guys. You have proven 1136 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:26,360 Speaker 3: that those guys were trying to keep you from making 1137 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 3: more money. They were trying to protect their wads. And 1138 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 3: I know that again, their fans were probably like, yeah, 1139 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,640 Speaker 3: those don't deserve the money, and oh they should be 1140 00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 3: able to do that. It's like, no, they shouldn't like that. 1141 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,600 Speaker 3: That's wherest train of trade. Okay, this is against the 1142 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:45,280 Speaker 3: free market economy. It hurts labor. Labor if you really 1143 00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,960 Speaker 3: thought about you would never want it to happen. Okay, 1144 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 3: just because your favorite team doesn't make it a good thing. 1145 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:53,839 Speaker 1: So let me tew Let me throw this out you J. Cole, 1146 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,319 Speaker 1: because I agree, Like we talked about this last hour. Yes, 1147 00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 1: everybody needs to be fired. If you're the NFLPA, can 1148 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 1: you dem and a new CBA? Say now, okay, obviously 1149 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,759 Speaker 1: there's lots of bad stuff. We don't know what was 1150 00:50:05,800 --> 00:50:08,880 Speaker 1: above board beyond unless you really want us dig into this, 1151 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:10,399 Speaker 1: we want a new CBA right now? 1152 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,239 Speaker 3: Well, well you're gonna trust to do it? 1153 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,600 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, yeah, somebody knew that. You don't. You don't 1154 00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 1: have the same people, do it? You bring somebody new 1155 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:20,520 Speaker 1: when to do it? 1156 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,320 Speaker 3: Can you do all sorts of things? You what you 1157 00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,200 Speaker 3: you accuse them of everything you put those guys you put. 1158 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 3: You hold the owners, you hold their feet to the fire. This, 1159 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:36,160 Speaker 3: this union is under the idiotic concepts and part of 1160 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 3: the part of the biggest idiocy of this. 1161 00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 5: And J. C. 1162 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 3: Treader, the former president of the NFLPA, a former player, 1163 00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:46,680 Speaker 3: should answer this question, why did you think it was 1164 00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 3: a good idea to hire a man who was from 1165 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 3: a management based company to run a union that's one 1166 00:50:56,400 --> 00:51:03,160 Speaker 3: essential question, right, you know what, how will it comes 1167 00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 3: from management side? He comes from the ownership side of this, 1168 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 3: of this equation. He's not a union guy, let alone. 1169 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 3: He knows nothing about football, so he doesn't even know 1170 00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 3: what he needs to ask for. He doesn't even understand 1171 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,359 Speaker 3: the concepts that are here. You need to have people 1172 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,800 Speaker 3: who are actually union people. You need to have people 1173 00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 3: who understand football. That's why, you know. The more I 1174 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 3: look back at and I know Gene Upshaw took a 1175 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 3: lot of craft during his time his tenure, that man 1176 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,239 Speaker 3: understood this is how you fight for players. This is 1177 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 3: how you fight for wages. Because the guys who are 1178 00:51:36,480 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 3: the owners are trying to rip off the players less 1179 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 3: and right, and they do it most of the time 1180 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 3: because they're better at getting leverage. And he understand how 1181 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 3: this business works. Okay, and yes, you should fight for 1182 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,440 Speaker 3: a new CBA. You're not really going to get one 1183 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 3: this round, but you should use this as ammunition to 1184 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:57,279 Speaker 3: just make these guys look as bad as possible. Not 1185 00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 3: in front of the fans, because again, the fans don't PAMs, 1186 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 3: just want games. They just want to see games. They 1187 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 3: don't care about it buy and large, but in the court. Yes, 1188 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:12,640 Speaker 3: this is a really bad look if you can somehow 1189 00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:15,879 Speaker 3: get into court, because this is how they won way 1190 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 3: back when in the in the nineties, and they have 1191 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:22,640 Speaker 3: a fair CBA back then. Since then, since twenty eleven, 1192 00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 3: since the since the NFL got out of court and 1193 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:30,840 Speaker 3: successfully got themselves out of court, it's been a lotside CBA. 1194 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,759 Speaker 3: And guess what's happened. The owners have made money hand 1195 00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 3: over fist. I mean, this is what people don't understand 1196 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 3: about the NFL. These aren't businesses anymore where they try 1197 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 3: to make money. These are annuities. These are the you know, 1198 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 3: the people who bought the Denver Bronco has paid you know, 1199 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,800 Speaker 3: six hundred million dollars or whatever that was because it 1200 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:56,719 Speaker 3: was a guaranteed profit. They knew they were going to 1201 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,959 Speaker 3: make money year after year after year with the value 1202 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 3: of the team only going up. That's how good Roger 1203 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 3: Goodell has been at his job. Roger Goodell has been 1204 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,560 Speaker 3: one of the greatest commissioners in the history of of 1205 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 3: all sports. If you think that his job is to 1206 00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:18,160 Speaker 3: work for the owners, okay, because put it this way, 1207 00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 3: he's managed to make Woody Johnson Richard despite how wood 1208 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 3: he runs the Jets. 1209 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,400 Speaker 1: You know, you could have said any other team instead 1210 00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 1: of the Jet. You don't always have to defend to. 1211 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no no. I 1212 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:35,240 Speaker 3: couldn't say any other team. There was no other team 1213 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:38,160 Speaker 3: that I was going to say, not a single other team, 1214 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:42,720 Speaker 3: the only team that I was going to go after. Okay, 1215 00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 3: especially since Harmon you know, decide, you know, and Monty, 1216 00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 3: praise you for putting up with this for how long 1217 00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:55,239 Speaker 3: you've got to put up with this show, you know, 1218 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 3: whatever you had to do to earn your right to 1219 00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 3: be on with this guy. Okay, it for you. Okay, 1220 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 3: But like Harman, I could have gone after the Bears. 1221 00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:08,160 Speaker 3: You know, they're they're certainly you know, they're certainly culpable, 1222 00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,400 Speaker 3: but the Jets are own a special place. So it 1223 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:13,239 Speaker 3: was only going to be the Jets. You knew this. 1224 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 1: Oh, thanks, buddy, I hear you. So you're looking out 1225 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 1: for me, you. 1226 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,920 Speaker 3: Know, no, no, no, no, no, give me these thanks, buddy. 1227 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:23,680 Speaker 3: You know you knew this was coming.
