1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:18,759
Speaker 1: The volume. What is going on? Everybody? John middlecop three

2
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 1: and Out podcast. How are we doing everybody? Hopefully you're

3
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: doing great. I'm doing great because I woke up to

4
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: the Eagle story, which was really the talk of the combine.

5
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,480
Speaker 1: Now it is public and out there. We will dive

6
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 1: into that something that broke this afternoon. Poka Nakua has

7
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,519
Speaker 1: checked himself into rehab like Tiger Woods, though his is

8
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: in Malibu. All reports Tiger's like going out of the country.

9
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: A lot of other stuff going on. Kyle Shanahan had

10
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: some thoughts on McVeigh forcing them to go to Australia,

11
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: the running back position making a comeback, And someone had

12
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: asked me because we talked about the coaches photo. We

13
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: talked about the GM photo. They're like, could you break

14
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: down the coaches happy hour at the pool? I said,

15
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 1: can I ever? I've watched that video like fifteen times,

16
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: fascinated by it, had a million thoughts about it, wrote

17
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: some of them down, so we will u We'll do

18
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: a little scattering report on the positioning on the the

19
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 1: booze fest that was going on under the sun at

20
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: a pool. I've actually I've drank at as well. Great

21
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: Billmoher's got a good pool. If you're ever in that

22
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: area and want to have a pool day, even if

23
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: you're not staying there, you can get a day pass.

24
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: I remember gett a day pass for like twenty bucks.

25
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 1: Bars are sweet. You gotta swim up bars. It's it's

26
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 1: a good spot. Highly recommend it. So we'll do that.

27
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 1: We'll have another podcast out tomorrow, and then next week.

28
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: I think the game Plan will probably have a master's

29
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: preview Monday. I'm gonna I'm gonna record a bunch of

30
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: mail bags probably Friday or Saturday for next week. I'm

00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: gonna be in La on next week, not quite sure

00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: on my schedule, so I'm gonna I'm gonna record something

Speaker 1: sure you subscribe to three and Out, you can check

37
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: all these videos out place called Netflix. Appreciate everyone watching.

38
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: And let's just dive right into the Eagle story. Now,

39
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: let's go big picture. I don't think the timing of

40
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 1: this story was random. It's the first thing I thought

41
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: about when I clicked on it, and I read it,

42
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: and I saw pro Football talk. Me and Florio. We

43
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: might not be aligned on everything, but he was thinking

44
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: the same thing. This story drops the day after the

45
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 1: owner's meetings. What happens at the owner's meetings, Siriani is

46
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: obligated to talk how he runs a media session, as

47
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: most general managers do with their local media. There this

48
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: story was not available, at least publicly for any of

49
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: those situations. Now, for those of us that are I

50
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: don't even want to say in the loop because I've

51
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: never I've actually never talked to Howie about Jalen Hurts.

52
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: Never had one conversation with him. Honestly, most of my

53
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,239
Speaker 1: conversations about where he should go eat in a certain

54
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: town or bsing with him about something stupid. But I've

55
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: never discussed Jalen Hurts. So I had no inside information

56
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: from Howie. I don't know Sirianni, but it was well

57
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: established at the combine. And I've admitted to this as

58
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: well that I felt like, you know, your typical media

59
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: guy piling on AJ Brown during the season, and I

60
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: heard some things that obviously AJ's not the easiest guy

61
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: to deal with. Welcome to wide receivers, but when it

62
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: came to like if you pulled that locker room, if

63
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: you said, hey, guys, if we could choose one of

64
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: the two guys, which one would you choose? I heard

65
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: it was unanimously aj Brown. Now, because of the contract,

66
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: they're stuck with Jalen Hurts and it's not easy to

67
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: find another quarter back. But one thing is clear. The

68
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: bat signal was sent out today. And here's what we

69
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: know about the Philadelphia Eagles. Their owner spends a shitload

70
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: of money over the course of like twenty one, twenty two,

71
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: twenty three, and twenty four. I think only Jimmy Haslam,

72
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: which is kind of ironic because they were terrible for

73
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: most of it. They didn't make the playoffs one time

74
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: with Flacco spent more actual cash. Right. We've been talking

75
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 1: a lot about this because a GM was like, John,

76
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: you talk so much about the salary cap, you don't

77
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 1: talk enough about cash that they're two separate things, and

78
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: it separates a lot of these teams. It's like this

79
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: one was the crazy part about like the Belichickian run

80
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: and even the last five or six years with the

81
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 1: New England Patriots. Relative to the rest of the league,

82
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: they don't spend as much cash. Same thing with Jerry Jones.

83
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: You know, certain teams spend more actual of their own

84
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: money relative to the salary cap because you can manipulate

85
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 1: it than others. And Jeffrey Lewie always has. And the

86
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: one thing we know about that offense, it is highly

87
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: paid wide receivers. Offensive Wneman. I mean how he's given

88
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley multiple contracts forever Goddard was making a ton

89
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: of money. I think he's making a little less now

90
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 1: that they resigned him, but that they are paying premiums

91
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: for the group. And they gave Jalen Hurts a five year,

92
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty five million dollar contract. And typically

93
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: when you are a top i don't know, ten twelve

94
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: ish quarterback, the guaranteed money is kind of a fugazi

95
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: cause you're gonna see every fucking penny on the contract.

96
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: You see it all. Dak Prescott has never not seen it.

97
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 1: I'm not even talking about Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson,

98
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: Joe Burrows. I'm talking that next year, the Cousins, the Daks,

99
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: the Jared Goffs, they see every penny guaranteed and non

100
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: so when they signed these enormous contracts. It has to

101
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 1: be a absolute train wreck. Russell Wilson to Watonga bai

102
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: Loa Kyler Murray for teams to eat and get rid

103
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: of you, because one it obviously crippled your cap, which

104
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: is important because then you can't, you know, maneuver other

105
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 1: players underneath. When a guy like Tua's taking up a

106
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 1: ninety nine million dollar dead cap hit or Kyler Murray's

107
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: taking up fifty million, you don't want to do that

108
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 1: next year, Jalen Hurts. Let's just say this year is

109
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,799
Speaker 1: a disaster. Is sixty seven million dollars? I saw someone

110
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: say that's manageable, true, because you could spread it out

111
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: over two years. They don't want to do that. They

112
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 1: just want him to play well. They just want him

113
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: to be a consistent quarterback. The Eagles are cutthroat. They

114
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: are a throwback Bill Walsh. Cut you a year before

115
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 1: you start diminishing instead of waiting a year too late.

116
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: Belichick did it forever. Andy Beside Kelsey has made a

117
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 1: career off doing that because that's what it takes to

118
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: sustain a good organization. And how he did it with

119
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz. They signed him to this massive contract relative

120
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: to the salary cap and the money and the signing

121
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: bonuses at the time. Within a couple of years they

122
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: were pivoting and Jalen Hurts was out of there. It

123
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 1: goes back to the Tom Brady thing with Belichick. Why

124
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: he was always on pins and needles, because even though

125
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 1: he was the greatest quarterback of all time by like

126
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: the mid twenty fifteen, you know tens, by like fifteen

127
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: and sixteen, he had seen all of his friends get

128
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 1: traded or cut that first ten plus years of his career.

129
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: When they rattled off three Super Bowls, they went to

130
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: multiple other you know, in two thousand and seven, in

131
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: twenty eleven and lost. Think of how many high end

132
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: players Hall of famers he saw either drafted, cut, drafted, traded.

133
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: Happened to them all, Logan Mankins, Randy Moss, Mike Vrabel,

134
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: these guys, Wes Welker, they were all discarded. Welcome to

135
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: the NFL. This is some of these stories. When a

136
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: guy in baseball or basketball gets cut, it's like, whoa

137
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: fucking happens every day in football, happens all the time

138
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: with bad organizations, let alone the good ones, because they

139
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: do not tolerate when your play starts going like this,

140
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: and when you leave the league in three and outs,

141
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: you can blame the offensive coordinator. Jeffrey Lowrie's like, we

142
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: fired a couple of these guys. It can't just be them.

143
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: It can't just be aj Brown or Devonte Smith or

144
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 1: the questionable offensive line. And you start talking to people

145
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: like the quarterback frustrated a lot of people. And I

146
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: think the Eagles are doing this as like it's on man,

147
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: either shape up or you shape out. And here's the

148
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: thing about Jalen Hurts. It's not like you know, you

149
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: see some of these stories about something. He's not like

150
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: a bad guy. He is always in shape, he works hard,

151
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: He's extremely serious. But as you could see in there,

152
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: quarterback is a very nuanced situation. They have a lot

153
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: of juice because even if they don't have carte blanche

154
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage, they could if they want,

155
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: they can change a play whenever they want. Think about

156
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson started driving the Seattle Seahawks nuts and for

157
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: a couple of years, like you know, what are we

158
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 1: really gonna say? We're winning? Things are going well. It's

159
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: like we kind of kept our mouths shut and then

160
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: by like twenty eighteen and nineteen, theme started coming out.

161
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, John Snyder was ready to trade him

162
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 1: to the Browns and draft Josh Allen. You're like what

163
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: and then you're like, what's really going on? And it

164
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: turns out he was driving them nuts because it typically

165
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: with a quarterback is about two things. Do you play

166
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: well and what we want you to do? And we

167
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: think you excel at because most guys are not like

168
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers in their prime, like

169
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: could succeed in most schemes, can handle fucking everything. Most

170
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: guys are pretty scheme specific and have specific straits that

171
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: are traits that you need them to excel at. And

172
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: that is Jalen Hurtst throws a really good deep ball,

173
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 1: is a great athlete, is a great scrambler. Well, what

174
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: will he no longer do? He won't run. So Jalen

175
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,679
Speaker 1: Hurts when he became a really good player, was a

176
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 1: dual threat quarterback. Well he's not a dual threat quarterback anymore.

177
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: He's just a passer. And we've seen him as a

178
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: pocket passer. It's not great. And they led the league

179
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: in three and outs like that's not just the play caller,

180
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 1: that's not just the right guard. That's the quarterback who's

181
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: clearly just not great from within the pocket. And I'll

182
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: defend Jalen here in a second, but I think they

183
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: want it to be known of, like this isn't just

184
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: idiot coaches and aj Brown. Some of it's on him.

185
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: And he refuses to go under center, and we've had

186
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: to talk to him like going under center one can

187
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 1: help you out, and two helps our running back out,

188
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: who I don't know, just had one of the greatest

189
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: seasons in the history of the league. And when you

190
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: go go under center and a guy goes, no, what's

191
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: the coach gonna do? What's honestly, what's how we gonna do?

192
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,719
Speaker 1: I'm making fifty to fifty five million dollars, sirih Nick,

193
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: what are you making? Ten? How? What are you making? Ten?

194
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: I five X you. I don't have to listen to you.

195
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: And that's the thing about Jalen is it kind of

196
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: became a little NBA ish like, yeah, I don't know

197
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: I need to listen to anybody. I'll do what I

198
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 1: want to do. I think I know what my strengths

199
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: and weaknesses are, which he clearly doesn't because part of

200
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: his strength is the move. I kept saying in the

201
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: forty nine er game, and listen, I wanted the forty

202
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: nine ers to win. Was like if Jalen just ran

203
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: like fifteen times, they would have no answer. They have

204
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: backup defensive linemen, they have backup line, they have like

205
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 1: seven string linebackers. They had a guy that was like

206
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,679
Speaker 1: out of the league and they ran one if I

207
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 1: remember correctly design quarterback run. It went for like twenty yards.

208
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: Now there's a holding, so was called back. I would

209
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 1: run that play every fucking play. The forty nine ers,

210
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: Robert Tollkind had the greatest game plan of all time.

211
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 1: They would have no shot to stop it. None. They

212
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: didn't have the athletes on the field, but they couldn't

213
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,160
Speaker 1: call it because he wouldn't run it. And so part

214
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: of being a great player is being a great teammate,

215
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: and part of being a great teammate is being good

216
00:11:58,640 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: with the coach, Like what do I need to do?

217
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: And that's what has made Josh Lamar Obviously, Patrick Lick,

218
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 1: what do you need me to do? You need me

219
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,320
Speaker 1: to jump this way, I'll jump this way. You need

220
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: me to run backwards this way. I'll run backwards this way.

221
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and Peyton Manny did it forever. It's like, oh,

222
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 1: you're just gonna allow me to do dump offs and

223
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,199
Speaker 1: wheel rats his entire game. I will do that every

224
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 1: fucking play because it's not about me. It's about how

225
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: do we get the ball down the field, get first downs,

226
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 1: score touchdowns, and win the game. That's the only thing

227
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 1: that matters. And I do think that's pretty clear. And

228
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: this is what I've heard that the money has changed

229
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: the relationship. How could it not, because if you don't

230
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: handle money well and you become that rich and not like,

231
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: well that he's lazy, he doesn't work. He does all

232
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 1: like he's in shape. He tries, but like when it

233
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 1: comes to the scheme, he pushes back against it. And

234
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: here's the one thing that like a lot of other quarterbacks.

235
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan Aaron Rodgers two great examples. Matt ryan Is

236
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: first year with Kyle Shannan and Atalanta did not go well,

237
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: and Aaron Rodgers' first year with Matt Lafleur. They were

238
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: in the NFC Championship game, but anyone who watched that

239
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: team was a little weird and part of it was

240
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: both guys weren't that comfortable turning their back to the defense.

241
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: They didn't like it. Aaron Rodgers liked being in the shotgun,

242
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan liked being in the shotgun, but in that offense,

243
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 1: a lot of the play action is turning your back

244
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: to the defense. And Kyle told Matt like, you have

245
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 1: to do this for this scheme to excel, and you

246
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: will excel. He listened what happened. Matt Ryan won the

247
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 1: MVP and they were up twenty eight to three in

248
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Obviously, Aaron Rodgers, they kind of hybrided it,

249
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: but he went to win multiple MVPs. And one thing

250
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 1: that said in that article is and listen, this goes

251
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: for anybody, most of us human beings. If we try

252
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: something new, if we go a week or two, especially

253
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: in this modern day society, or it's not working, we'll pivot.

254
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: And sometimes you have to think big picture and like,

255
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 1: you got to get worse before you get better. And

256
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: they will try new things. And this is what was reported.

257
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: And if it doesn't go well, Jalen like will refuse

258
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: to do it. And here's the problem this new scheme

259
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 1: hiring Sean Manning, here's the other part I think about

260
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: this article for those of you that haven't ready to

261
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: go check it out on his spin dot com. One

262
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: thing that had to really embarrass Jeffrey Lurry, who has

263
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: spent a boatload of money on this team over the

264
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: course of his ownership. And Howie Roseman, who thinks that

265
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, he's built one of the best teams in

266
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: the league talent wise, especially on offense. They couldn't get

267
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: anyone to take the job. They have a roster with

268
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 1: I mean, multiple offensive linemen that are good under contract,

269
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley, multiple wide receivers, whether they want to keep

270
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: aj or not, he's a big time asset. You know

271
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: that they will draft another wide receiver if need be,

272
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: and more than likely that guy will be good. They

273
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: got firepower on offense and they have an elite defense,

274
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 1: so as an offensive coordinator, it's a pretty good spot.

275
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: Multiple coaches, Shane Steichen and Kellen Moore became head coaches

276
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: off the gig. No one would take the job because

277
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: I say this all the time about football, it's a

278
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 1: lot like high school. Word gets around really fast. Everyone

279
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: knows everybody, and word spread. That's not easy to deal with.

280
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: This guy. He won't listen, and he has his beliefs

281
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: on what should work and not that open minded. And

282
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,080
Speaker 1: I think the Eagles, you know, ended up with Sean Mannon,

283
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: who clearly wasn't their first pick and who knows it

284
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 1: might work. But he's going to run the Kyle Shanahan offense,

285
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: which again is predicated like Rogers like Matt Ryan, on

286
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 1: getting under center and turning your back to the defense, which,

287
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: in fairness to Jalen, if most of your career you

288
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: had been in the shotgun, it wouldn't be you wouldn't

289
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: be that comfortable doing it. But what he's doing currently

290
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: is not only not working, it's a fucking disaster. So

291
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 1: for them to try this, I think they're putting this

292
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 1: out there because I don't know the date the Eagles report,

293
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: but my guess is typically a week or two before

294
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: the draft, so within the next fourteen ish days they

295
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: want it to be known like this is not gonna

296
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: be tolerated anymore. And like, I know, you're making a

297
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: lot of money, but you've seen before we got rid

298
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: of a guy to put you in there. If you

299
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: don't think we will do this again, you're dealing with

300
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: the wrong people because we will not hesitate this organization

301
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 1: fired fucking Andy Reid. We do not care. We will

302
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: get rid of you if you do not produce. And now,

303
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: to me, the pressure is all on Jalen and Sirianni

304
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: because he's got to handle this. He's got this young coordinator.

305
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: And this is where Jeffrey Lurie sings the praises of Sirianni.

306
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Great with people, great handling stuff. This is why this

307
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: job is so intense. This is not an easy place

308
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: to work. That the roster is highly paid. This team

309
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 1: is treated like it's an SEC football team like LSU, Texas,

310
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: Bama George. It's in a fish ball of intensity of football.

311
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: And now you have this issue of Jalen. Not that

312
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 1: he didn't know like these issues, it's all been discussed

313
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: with everybody. You know. This is one of those maybe

314
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: all the public knows. Me and Cowardice have talked about

315
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: this before. This is not something that I didn't really

316
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 1: learn much from it, just because I'm privy. This is

317
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 1: the world I'm in. But I could see Rita God,

318
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 1: I got some issues and this is part of his job.

319
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: And this is where if you wanted to defend sirianni

320
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 1: as one of the top coaches. Basically at every turn,

321
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,679
Speaker 1: he's handled a lot of crap. This is not a

322
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: gig for just random guys that can't handle the pressure.

323
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: It will eat you alive. But also I think they're

324
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: going of If he plays like that again, it could

325
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: be an even bigger disaster and more than likely the

326
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: Giants are gonna be better with John Harball. The Cowboys

327
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: have multiple first round picks. They already beat us last year.

328
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 1: If their defense is just solid, like, they could be

329
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 1: a problem. The Commanders have Jayden Daniels, who had one

330
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: of the great rookie seasons of all time. If he's

331
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: just healthy, they could be a problem. Like this is

332
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 1: not just gonna be as easy of like, even if

333
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: we have a weird season, we're locke to win the division.

334
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: So to me, the bat signal went out to Jalen

335
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: in his camp, like this will not be tolerated anymore.

336
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: So you either do it our way or not at

337
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,360
Speaker 1: our our way anymore, Because it does feel like it's

338
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 1: shaping into the Russell Wilson situation a little bit. And

339
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: you know, Russell was a better player than Jalen Hurts.

340
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: When it started getting weird. He just was. But to me,

341
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 1: Jalen can be a good player again. If he's willing

342
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 1: to go, I'll do whatever it takes to win. And

343
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: his legs are a great attribute for his game. Part

344
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: of what makes Lamar great when he's humming is you

345
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: can do everything. Throw it within the pocket, he could

346
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 1: throw on the movie. He can run. But it's like, bro,

347
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: you know, remember Russell's big things like I'm gonna play

348
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: like Tom Brady. It's like, no, you're not, and he

349
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,919
Speaker 1: never could. And I think I think Jalen kind of

350
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: got in that mode of like that's how I want

351
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 1: to play. Well, it's like you're not good enough to

352
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:09,400
Speaker 1: play like that. Most people aren't so and you specifically

353
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,199
Speaker 1: or not. So we're not doing that anymore. And I

354
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 1: think this was I think they were very strategic about this.

355
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,959
Speaker 1: You know, Jeffrey spoke and he was the opposite, just

356
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 1: praising him left and right. But the contract came up.

357
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 1: They're like, well, what about a contract extension because after

358
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 1: next year it'd be like could they get ahead of it.

359
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 1: He's like no, he's just on the new contract. Like

360
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: right now at contract extension. If you're a betting man.

361
00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: If this keeps getting weird, he will not be the

362
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 1: quarterback for long of the Philadelphia Eagles, which is crazy

363
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,239
Speaker 1: because the guy was just Super Bowl MVP has been

364
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: a starting quarterback in multiple Super Bowls. But isn't that

365
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: the great part about the NFL? And this is how

366
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: fickle the sport is. You could be hoisting the Lombardi

367
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 1: Trophy on a duckboat down Broad Street and two years

368
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: later them saying if you don't improve, we will cut

369
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 1: you or trade you. He will not hesitate to do

370
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: so we've done it before, we'll do it again. And

371
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 1: if you don't believe us, call our bluff because we've

372
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: seen him that they one hundred percent will because I'll

373
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: promise you this. There's really one made man in that organization.

374
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: It's not the quarterback, it's not the coach, it's the

375
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 1: general manager. So I just think that this was something

376
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: they felt like they needed to do. And now this

377
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: scheme running the Shanahan thing, It's one thing I talked

378
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: to a lot of people about at the combine. It's

379
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 1: like that offense is like, you gotta be pretty accurate,

380
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:40,040
Speaker 1: quick decision maker. Jalen's game is much more kind of

381
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: playmaking you know the good His good version is like

382
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: what Deshaun Watson was when he was UH in Houston

383
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: and what Russell was like kind of scramble get without

384
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,240
Speaker 1: the pocket, make plays down the field, throw a good

385
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: deep ball, make plays with your legs. Try to transition

386
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: into something he's not, and that's a good life. Less like,

387
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 1: we all have certain strengths and weaknesses. Most people aren't

388
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: just like super good looking, tall, super smart, great socializer, loving,

389
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 1: empathetic person, great athlete. Can play the piano, can play

390
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,880
Speaker 1: the guitar, can run a company like. Most of us

391
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 1: have one or two really strong strengths. It's no different

392
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 1: with players. Most people are not like you know, Lawrence

393
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: Taylor or Aaron Donald or Trent Williams. Most players in

394
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: the league, even the good ones, have weaknesses, and the

395
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 1: key to making those players excel is to try to

396
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 1: avoid those weaknesses. Right, some guys, some wide receivers like

397
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, never ran that fast. You know what, didn't matter.

398
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 1: You're not asking him to run go routes all day long.

399
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: If you did, it wouldn't really work because's not gonna

400
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 1: get away from anybody. But if you do slants, if

401
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,199
Speaker 1: you do out routes, if you do stuff across the

402
00:21:55,240 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: middle red zone, utilize the guy's talent, and I I

403
00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 1: just think that that's what they're trying to do. And

404
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,719
Speaker 1: they're gonna try to do this with this new scheme

405
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: and I I don't know, it's gonna be fascinating. But

406
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: here's what we know. The Eagles offense will be one

407
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 1: of the biggest stories in terms of a unit next

408
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: year in the NFL. I mean, they're always covered like

409
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: one of the primetime teams because they are. But now

410
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: that this story, now that you can't even hide from it,

411
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: it's it's gonna be It's gonna be fat. I love it.

412
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: It's what I've been saying about Josh Allen and the

413
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: Bills and Joe Brady Mentor and Lamar Jackson. I love it.

414
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: When the pressure goes up to one hundred, that's when

415
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: it's the most fun because sometimes you answer it's like,

416
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: I hate the Lakers. They're one of the only teams

417
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 1: that I truly like, truly hate, yet I gotta respect it.

418
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 1: I mean, they've kind of figured it out. They look fantastic,

419
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: and sometimes like, listen, you play for the Lakers, you

420
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: got Lebron, James J. J. Reddick. Everything became such a

421
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: big deal, right. The pressure is immense. The same thing

422
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: with the New York Knicks, same thing with the New

423
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: York Yankees. Like when Aaron Boone goes to the yard.

424
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 1: It's a little different being the manager of that team

425
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 1: than it is like the Anaheim Angels or the Texas Rangers.

426
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 1: It's a fucking pressure cooker. And that's what it's like

427
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 1: for the Eagles players and coaches. So and listen how

428
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: he's won multiple Super Bowls. His resume surely probably get

429
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 1: him in the Hall of Fame one day, but that's

430
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: how he operates. He's intense. The pressure in that organization.

431
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: Everyone's on pins and needles. And I listen, I talked

432
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: to Jeffrey Leury five times in my entire life, and

433
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: the conversations probably lasted combined less than a minute. Maybe

434
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 1: he likes it like that, Maybe he enjoys that. That's

435
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 1: kind of football culture. Belichick was like that for twenty

436
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: plus years they went to nine Super Bowls and won

437
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: six Saban was like that for fifteen years they won

438
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 1: seven titles. Urban Meyer was like that his entire career.

439
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 1: Bcsutah National Championship Florida and Ohio State. This is not,

440
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: you know, Beer League softball, does not high school soccer.

441
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: This is intense heads roll. You either get it done

442
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 1: or you don't, or they get rid of you. And

443
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: we have some recent examples where guys got rid of quick.

444
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: So the story now that it's public, buckle up. Today's

445
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 1: show is brought to you by our presenting sponsor, hard

00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: college football here, but we got four teams left in

448
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: college basketball. Clearly the big favorite is gonna come out

449
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: of the Arizona Michigan game. But do not sleep on

450
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,119
Speaker 1: Yukon and Dan Hurley. And if you want to bet

00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: stopping zero in the clock moments I've seen all tournament.

Speaker 1: They still pay on hard Rock Bet. They're handing out

457
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,679

475
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: officially checked himself into a rehab facility in Malibu, which

476
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 1: beautiful area right by the water so now we've had

477
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 1: Tiger and Puka. We don't have all the details on Tiger,

478
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:50,239
Speaker 1: but the moment Tiger's car flipped, my first take was

479
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 1: it is inevitable that he is in rehab within the week.

480
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:59,120
Speaker 1: Really for two reasons. One, it's Florida. They're not messing around.

481
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 1: He's already got multiple DUIs who was in a residential area,

482
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: could have killed people. They will drop the hammer. I

483
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 1: don't care how much money you got. So he had

484
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 1: to do that to get ahead of it. Like he

485
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna be at the Master's dinner. He wasn't gonna

486
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: be teeing it up on the par three. That wouldn't

487
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: looked good in the judicial you know, group's eyes. So

488
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 1: like Tiger checking into rehab to me felt like a

489
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: lock just from that standpoint and to just his respectability.

490
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: It's like Tiger, we all know, like you had multiple

491
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: pills in your pocket. No one thinks you're drinking Tito's

492
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 1: and sodas at lunch, Like we know what you're doing

493
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 1: and we want you to get help, bro, But listen,

494
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 1: I'm not I don't have an addictive personality. Been around

495
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,640
Speaker 1: some addicts, known a few that didn't make it, and

496
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 1: if you don't want to get help, it doesn't matter. Obviously,

497
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: in some of these situations, there are a lot of

498
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: people around you that profit off you, and Tiger, unlike Puka,

499
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 1: has way more money billion, well past a billion dollars.

500
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,080
Speaker 1: He got a lot of people on the payroll, and

501
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 1: if those people have a sense of reality, they would

502
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 1: push him that way to try to keep the money

503
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 1: train rolling. Now, who knows, he gets out, maybe gets

504
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 1: rid of some of them. But some of these pukin

505
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 1: Nakua videos and listen, I'd be a hypocrite, like I've

506
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 1: been blacked out my fair share of times. But and listen,

507
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 1: I've tried to avoid Bin's drinking in my late thirties

508
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,240
Speaker 1: early forties. I still like having a few cocktails. When

509
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: you have two, sometimes it leads to four or five.

510
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: So I'd be lying if I said I don't enjoy

511
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 1: drinking when I socialize, I do a lot. Don't love

512
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,679
Speaker 1: the mornings and have had to be a little more

513
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 1: careful because I just I can't function hungover. But I

514
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: do like having cocktails when I am interacting with other

515
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: human beings. But and I've been young, I've done supid

516
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: stuff like many people listening. I'm sure if you were

517
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: a high profile person and people had video cameras on

518
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: you when you were in your early to mid twenties,

519
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 1: it would be something. I got very lucky in college

520
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: and in high school. Mean I started drinking like sophomore

521
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: year high school. There were camera phones didn't exist. We

522
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: had dial up internet, So the iPhone, I don't even

523
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: think came out till well after I graduated college. So

524
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 1: it's easy for a lot of people to talk about

525
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 1: Puka's situation. Many of us could have been caught in

526
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: situations that if a video got out, we would be

527
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: thoroughly embarrassed in something we would want our children never

528
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: to see. But when I was his age, I didn't

529
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: have a Jackson Smith and Jigbit contract on the line.

530
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 1: And when I saw the story today that he checked

531
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: himself into rehab, I went, we's got one hundred million

532
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: dollars plus reasons to figure this thing out. Because the

533
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: videos that had surfaced one from being a pain in

534
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 1: mcvay's ass. With the streamers which listen, that would have

535
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: been something that they could have got past. Right, You're

536
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: just with some people that most people my age. Me

537
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: and Sean are the same age. We don't even know

538
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: who these people are. Couldn't point him out of the lineup.

539
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: I don't even understand what's going on. Honestly, I don't

540
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 1: even give a fuck. But to me, when you get

541
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 1: in situations where you're stumbling outside of cars and then

542
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: the lawsuit comes, I know it gets you know, she

543
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: backs out of it like I don't want to deal

544
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 1: with that. And my best players Matt Stafford, Aaron Donald

545
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 1: now Trent McDuffie. Every night when I am Sean mcvah,

546
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: let's need and I lay my head down on the pillow.

547
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 1: I know the last person I'm ever going to get

548
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: a call about doing something ridiculous or outrageous, something that

549
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: they could control, would be my leaders on my team.

550
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: It would never happen. And with Pooka that couldn't be

551
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: said anymore. And here's what I brought up a couple

552
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 1: quotes from the day that they did the press conference,

553
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 1: Mike McDonald and Jackson Smith and Jigma and John Schneider.

554
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 1: One thing John said is when you go to ownership

555
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: and ask for an investment like this, you have to

556
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: be cognizant of the of who the person is. His

557
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 1: parents did a great job raising him. Mike McDonald. One

558
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 1: of the great things that paints a great picture about

559
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: Jack's means to us being a foundational piece of our

560
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: football team and our organization is we've got a full

561
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 1: house here. This is pretty awesome. I just want to

562
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: emphasize how excited we are he's gonna be here, and

563
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: he's a foundational piece. He's a cornerstone to our team.

564
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: Another quote Mike had is he's a superstar who doesn't

565
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 1: act like one. When you invest these contracts and now

566
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:51,959
Speaker 1: wide receivers, tackles, pass rushers, corners are getting one hundred

567
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 1: plus million dollars guaranteed. They just gave him a thirty

568
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: five million dollar check the day they signed him. Like

569
00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 1: I said, a couple weeks, you know, whenever that direct

570
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: to positive through two week pay periods. They did it

571
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 1: because of the guy. Obviously, he's an elite player and

572
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: has a chance to be a Hall of Fame level guy.

573
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: But they would not have given him that contract if

574
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 1: he was a slap off the field. They just would

575
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: not have. But when you have a guy who is

576
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: everything you want, team captain, leader, tone setter, incredible human being.

577
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: You can't wait to do that. You went, I drafted

578
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: this guy. He's an all pro, Pro Bowl level guy.

579
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: I want to invest in him because my name as

580
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,400
Speaker 1: a general manager, as a coach, I wanted to be

581
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: associated with that guy, Ashean McVay would. It's like to

582
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: be associated with Aaron Donald or Matt Stafford. It's a

583
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: big deal those guys. He's synonymous with those guys. No

584
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: different than you know, Andy Reid, Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes,

585
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 1: Alex Smith, like takes a lot going back to all

586
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: the guys with the Eagles, takes a lot of pride

587
00:32:55,400 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 1: in guys being good guys, good people, and great players.

588
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: And the stuff that was going on with Jack Smith,

589
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 1: Like there was no way on God's green Earth going

590
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: the way it was going. They could give him that money.

591
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 1: It wasn't going to happen. And I would imagine the

592
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 1: Rams told him. I'm not saying they told him to

593
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,239
Speaker 1: go to rehab, but they just said, like, we're not

594
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: having contract extensions with you. It's just not happening. Sometimes

595
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: just business, right. David Mulgeta could called Nick Cassario and

596
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: be like, hey, you know, CJ is going into year

597
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: four one hundred and seventy five million dollars guaranteed, two

598
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: hundred fifty million dollar deal, five year deal. That's kind

599
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: of the going rate for Yeah, buddy, you're gonna need

600
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 1: to call us later, right, And that's just business. That's

601
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 1: not we like the guy or whatever not playing well enough.

602
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: And then you get these situations like Puka, where I've

603
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 1: been watching football for thirty plus years. I love football.

604
00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 1: I've made my living my adult life talking about football literally.

605
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 1: And I told one of my closest friends in the league,

606
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 1: who's a wide receiver coach, We've never seen a player

607
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 1: like him, and he's been doing it a lot longer

608
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: than me. He's a unique dominant. He's one of the

609
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 1: more fun players to watch in the league. And the

610
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 1: Rams who drafted the guy not like not like Jackson

611
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: Smith in the first round, not even second round, like

612
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 1: he was a later round pick. I want to say third.

613
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: I don't want to mess this up, but Pooka Nikua,

614
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: what round was he drafted in? For some reason? I

615
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: want to say fifth, fifth round pick. Pookaa cool is

616
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 1: a fifth round pick for some reason. I think third. Honestly,

617
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: that's even a bigger feather in less need. In mcveigh's cap,

618
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 1: we drafted a guy who in the fifth round that

619
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: his rookie season, he was a pro bowler. His rookie season,

620
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,479
Speaker 1: he was a second team All Pro and last year,

621
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: without a doubt, one hundred and twenty nine catches, seventeen

622
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 1: hundred yards and ten touchdowns, First team All Pro. That's

623
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 1: something you take pride in. Like, think about in life,

624
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: what you take pride in. Right, I just have a

625
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,320
Speaker 1: young son. If he becomes a good person, has success,

626
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,399
Speaker 1: gets a's in the classroom, even though I think about

627
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 1: sometimes like after they teach him to read and write, like,

628
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,399
Speaker 1: what's he gonna learn in school? That's gonna be any

629
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 1: use to him in the world he's going to grow

630
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 1: up in with technology and the ability to literally get

631
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 1: a hold of everything. But that's a conversation for another day.

632
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: But you know, if he hits home run in a

633
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:36,479
Speaker 1: little league, or you know, wins a golf tournament, makes

634
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 1: a tackle in peewee's. When my peewe's were called midgets,

635
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 1: and this was Davis was like a hippie liberal town

636
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: back in the nineties. I would imagine they've renamed that.

637
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 1: But we had midgets, junior midgets before you got to

638
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:58,160
Speaker 1: like JV football. But there's nothing more than you would

639
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: take pride in as a general manager than landing a

640
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:04,959
Speaker 1: fifth round pick and having that guy that's Pete Carroll,

641
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: Richard Sherman, Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch, George Kittle, Like

642
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 1: it doesn't get any better than that fifth, sixth, seventh

643
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: round picks become Pro Bowlers, all pros, Hall of Famers.

644
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: It's one thing. It's like, hey, we drafted U. You know,

645
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: even Patrick Mahomes drafts him in the first round. Trade

646
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,760
Speaker 1: it up to get him. Hope he's good. Caleb Williams,

647
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: like we drafted him number one overall. We drafted this

648
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:33,360
Speaker 1: guy in the fifth round. But I've that video of

649
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: him on the bus. It was like, this is if

650
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 1: I'm less need Like I'm telling his agent, like, you

651
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,399
Speaker 1: guys need to figure it out because this other thing

652
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 1: like this is these are grown ups. This isn't Alabama

653
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 1: football where you get in trouble and nick you have

654
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 1: seven people hold your hands. Most people are not the Eagles.

655
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,400
Speaker 1: We're big doms around. It's like you gotta figure it

656
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: out because if you don't, like, we'll just figure it

657
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: out with someone else who's not gonna be as good

658
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 1: as this guy. But we're not dealing with this, and

659
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,720
Speaker 1: we for damn sure are not talking about him currently,

660
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 1: like they're talking about Jackson Smith, who are kind of

661
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 1: on the same trajectory. Two guys who are due contract

662
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: extensions that had enormous years who were great players, but

663
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 1: one guy's been a lead off the field and the

664
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: other has turned into a major pain in the ass.

665
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 1: So whether he did this on his own, whether people

666
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: pushed him to do this, I don't know, but I

667
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 1: give him credit because if he did not change, it

668
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: was not gonna end well because he wouldn't have stayed

669
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: on the rams for long. It just wasn't gonna happen.

670
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,840
Speaker 1: They wouldn't do it. Look at the guys they invested.

671
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 1: When's the last time they made a mistake with investing

672
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 1: in a bad guy. It's pretty rare. Like they're pretty

673
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: dialed in with the character stuff. It feels like I

674
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 1: think we might have touched on this a little bit.

675
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:55,120
Speaker 1: But Kyle Shanahan yesterday, him and Lafleur were both like

676
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 1: wearing the same suit and Lafloor kind of egged him on.

677
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 1: He's like, hey, floor are oh you know the Rams

678
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: that they wanted these guys to Uh, they wanted to

679
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:09,360
Speaker 1: play the Niners in Australia. I'd never I'd never heard that.

680
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 1: I just assumed the league just wanted to put a

681
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,359
Speaker 1: good game there. And then Kyle's like, oh yeah, they

682
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: they requested us that they wanted they're Australian. There was

683
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,120
Speaker 1: gonna be the Rams Australian home game. They said, we

684
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: want to play the forty nine ers. Kyle's like, of

685
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:26,919
Speaker 1: course they do. We sell out their stadium. I went

686
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:32,839
Speaker 1: to a Rams Niner game at so Far twenty twenty one. Uh,

687
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: it was probably seventy five Niner fans. It was so

688
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 1: loud in there. And as Kyle said, they have to

689
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 1: go on silent count. And here's the thing. When you

690
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,719
Speaker 1: move a lot, like the Rams were in LA, then

691
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 1: they went to Saint Louis and they came back. The

692
00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: Chargers were in San Diego. They come to LA. The

693
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 1: Raiders have gone to LA. They go to Oakland, they

694
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 1: go to Vegas. You're not gonna have a home field advantage.

695
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,720
Speaker 1: The Saint Seattle were my entire life. The Seattle Seahawks

696
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 1: have been in Seattle. My entire life. The forty nine

697
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: Ers have been in the Bay Area my entire life.

698
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 1: The Chicago Bears have been in Chicago. When you just

699
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 1: stay somewhere, your fan base just gonna grow. It becomes

700
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 1: more passionate, especially when you're good. But all these teams

701
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: that move a lot, like what do you think you're getting,

702
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 1: Especially in a place like la which got a million

703
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,879
Speaker 1: teams a lot going on, it's like, yeah, your fan base.

704
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 1: I was at Low's today my dryer that when I

705
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 1: bought this house, we remodeled it, but we left the

706
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: washer and dryer from the previous guy, and you know,

707
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 1: they're probably a ten years plus old, right. I was like,

708
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 1: I'm not buying any washing dryer. They were fine. Well,

709
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: last night the dryer snaps and it was like, I'm

710
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: not paying some guy four or five hundred dollars to

711
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 1: fix it. The dryer's probably not even worth that. So, like,

712
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 1: you know what, We've been talking about it forever. I'm

713
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 1: just gonna go get a new washer and dryer. So

714
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:54,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, you know what, first thing in the morning,

715
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 1: I'll do a little husband duty. I'm gonna fire off

716
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 1: the loas. Sometimes you just feel like a man walking

717
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:03,439
Speaker 1: into Lows. I'm a podcaster, but this is fucking where

718
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: working men show up at seven eight in the morning

719
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,600
Speaker 1: with a coffee in their hand just to get some

720
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 1: stuff to go do work. I'm just buying a washroom

721
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: dryer that I'm gonna pay someone to install and remove mine.

722
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: But that's neither here nor there. So you go in there,

723
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 1: and as I'm walking, you know, you ask the lady

724
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 1: the thing's enormous. I Low's home deeply. Sometimes you go

725
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:26,440
Speaker 1: in there and if you're not used to going in there.

726
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: A lot some of you guys that are in like

727
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 1: construction World or the do the DIY projects, you kind

728
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 1: of know where to go. I don't go there that often,

729
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: so I get in there a little overwhelmed. It's like

730
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 1: where do I even walk? So you just first person

731
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: you see with a vest on, You're like, where is

732
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 1: whatever you're looking for? And they kind of point in

733
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 1: that direction you go. And as I'm walking, there's a

734
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 1: section with these golf carts and they're not like your

735
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,920
Speaker 1: normal golf cart. They're the golf carts that kind of

736
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 1: look like a you know, almost like a mini car.

737
00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: I mean, they got like three rows of seats. They're huge.

738
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,360
Speaker 1: They actually look pretty sweet. If I had a bigger garage,

739
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 1: I honestly i'd probably buy one. But the first one

740
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 1: I see is just a forty nine er logo golf cart.

741
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 1: I'm in North Scottsdale, Arizona, where the Arizona Cardinals are.

742
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 1: They're building a new practic facility in the next couple years.

743
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,080
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be ready in like twenty eight

744
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: is I mean a ten minute bike ride from where

745
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 1: I'm sitting right now. And the forty nine ers stranglehold

746
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 1: on the West coast, specifically southern California and Arizona speaks first.

747
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:31,840
Speaker 1: When they play the Rams and they play the Cardinals,

748
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 1: they are forty nine er home games. So the forty

749
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 1: nine ers have their home games. And then then when

750
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,279
Speaker 1: they play the Cardinals, and when they play the and

751
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 1: they play the Rams, they get two home games. When

752
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:42,680
Speaker 1: they play Seattle Seahawks, and Seattle it is not a

753
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: home game. It is a disadvantage. It is hard. So

754
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 1: it's true road game. And I understand Kyle being like

755
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 1: this sucks, And you know, Sean McVay is not really

756
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 1: complaining about it. You know why, because he goes I

757
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,919
Speaker 1: would rather get on a flight nineteen hours and play

758
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,720
Speaker 1: these guys, even if it's kind of a neutral field.

759
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: Then what I have to deal with. They lost last

760
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:08,439
Speaker 1: year to mac Jones because one advantage of the forty

761
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 1: nine Ers have in these games is the other team

762
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 1: has to go on silent count. And honestly, it's worse

763
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 1: for the Chargers that every time they play the Broncos,

764
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 1: every time they play the Chiefs, every time they play

765
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: the Raiders, every time they play any fan base like

766
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 1: the Vikings, the Bears, any group of people that have

767
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 1: gravitated out, you know, to the southern region of Arizona, Vegas,

768
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:31,240
Speaker 1: in southern California, they're at a huge disadvantage. It sucks.

769
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 1: I don't feel any sympathy though. That's what happens when

770
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 1: you're a nomadic franchise. You New doesn't have that problem,

771
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:42,080
Speaker 1: Chicago Cubs, you do, doesn't have that problem. The New

772
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: York Knicks, the San Franco Giants, the LA Dodgers don't

773
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: fucking move. When you're not moving to different cities, you're

774
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,800
Speaker 1: not crossing state lines, your fan base will be loyal.

775
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,400
Speaker 1: The Steelers, the Packers, the Bear. None of these teams

776
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: deal with it, you know, because they've just been in

777
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 1: the same place forever. But someone actually hit me on

778
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 1: on a DM that said for Fugazi Friday, we'll do

779
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 1: this a day early. This guy must live in Australia.

780
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 1: These tickets to the Rams Niner games are a joke.

781
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 1: Ninety thousand people in Q in the pre sale three

782
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 1: hundred dollars Australia plus. I don't know. That must be

783
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 1: like they have different They must have a different currency

784
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 1: for standing room only tickets, not even a seat GA

785
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: is six hundred plus. I don't know the conversion rates,

786
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 1: but clearly this guy lives there. Think is pretty crazy.

787
00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:43,080
Speaker 1: Not to mention hotels flights to Melbourne are getting skyrocket

788
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,280
Speaker 1: better off grabbing a few bevies and smashing a bucket

789
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 1: of wings with the mates at a local then watching

790
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 1: the game of football on a cricket pitch. So yeah,

791
00:43:56,239 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not behind this Australian game, not

792
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 1: because I didn't even know, or if I was the Rams,

793
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:05,400
Speaker 1: I would do the same thing. I just think this

794
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 1: whole thing is ridiculous. But to now know that the

795
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:11,399
Speaker 1: Rams part of the reason they were begging to play

796
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:14,760
Speaker 1: the forty nine ers is because they get a disadvantage.

797
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 1: Fine is one thing Kyle's gonna have to do is

798
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 1: snap out of it. And even he said, he's like,

799
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,959
Speaker 1: I have till the summer and then once we start

800
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 1: training camp, I will never talk about it again. But

801
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 1: it does suck. Can I tell you about my new

802
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 1: friends Zbiotics. Let's face it, after a late night would drinks,

803
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 1: I want to bounce back, and I want to bounce

804
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,320
Speaker 1: back fast. Ze Biotics is a pre alcohol probiotic drink

805
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,839
Speaker 1: that is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It's been

806
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 1: invented by PhD to tackle rough warnings after drinking. You

807
00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,320
Speaker 1: have one before you start, you have a few cocktails,

808
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,440
Speaker 1: you hydrate during and the pre alcohol produces an enzyme

809
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:02,279
Speaker 1: to break this eye product down. Just remember to make

810
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: pre alcohol your first drink of the night. Drink responsibly

811
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,439
Speaker 1: and you'll feel your best tomorrow. That's why every time

812

Speaker 1: percent off. The other thing I was thinking is I

821
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 1: was watching this show on Netflix where these young chicks

822
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: and dudes date older people. It's like they don't know that.

823
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: It's kind of like love is blind, but they're trying

824
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:52,920
Speaker 1: to set up someone in their twenties with someone in

825
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 1: their fifties or sixties. And I was watching it last

826
00:45:56,680 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 1: night and this girl who's probably like twenty two, two

827
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: twenty three is dating this dude it's like forty, and

828
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 1: she's wearing these tiny little sunglasses. And I looked at Maria.

829
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,840
Speaker 1: We're in bed, and Jack's sleeping last night was one

830
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 1: of his greatest nights of sleep yet. It was like

831
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 1: his Tom Brady moment. Slept from like nine to six

832
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 1: thirty in the morning. It was incredible. If he keeps

833
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 1: that up, I don't even know what I'll do. I'll

834
00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,279
Speaker 1: give him more milk, but oh, I don't give him

835
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 1: any I'd give him littles, but she she creates the milk,

836
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,760
Speaker 1: you know, what I mean. I'll give him a standing

837
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 1: ovation and I go wire a glasses so small and

838
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 1: she's like, that's in. Now. I started thinking think about

839
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:39,920
Speaker 1: younger people, right, if you're twenty, you don't want to

840
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 1: look like people that are forty five. And fashion is

841
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 1: a great example. Like I was cool with the baggy jeans.

842
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 1: I was glad they were gone. Well guess what, they're

843
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 1: not back. It's all anyone wears more women than men.

844
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 1: But it's like, the baggy jeans are back in style.

845
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 1: You know why because things ebb and they flow, so

846
00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:00,200
Speaker 1: you think something's gonna go out. But then all of

847
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,560
Speaker 1: a sudden, little glasses that I used to remember like

848
00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:05,000
Speaker 1: twenty years ago people wearing are kind of coming back.

849
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 1: Baggy jeans are back. That's the way fashion works. Something

850
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 1: is cool, then it's not cool, and then it's cool again.

851
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: And not that long ago, the running backs were jumping

852
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,600
Speaker 1: on zoom and they were it felt like all gonna

853
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:23,200
Speaker 1: strike the NFL, not like with a fist, but just

854
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,160
Speaker 1: like refuse to play because none of them are getting

855
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: paid and getting screwed. Now, last year we had a

856
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 1: five to seven running back. They played a Boise Steak

857
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 1: at drafted six overall this year. It would be shocking

858
00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:37,959
Speaker 1: if Jeremiah Love makes it out of the top five.

859
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:42,840
Speaker 1: I was in the car listening to uh John Eric Sullivan,

860
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 1: who's impressive guy, and they were asking him like, are

861
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,479
Speaker 1: you know you just traded Jalen Waddle? Are you gonna

862
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 1: trade a Chan? He said, not only are we not

863
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,880
Speaker 1: going to trade a Chan, We're talking to his agent.

864
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,560
Speaker 1: We're trying to give him a big extension. We think

865
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 1: he's a foundational piece here. One of the best running

866
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 1: backs in the league. Saquon Barkley got a contract from

867
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:09,320
Speaker 1: Howie and then got an extension the next year. Christian

868
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 1: McCaffrey assigned multiple massive extensions. Alvin Kamara makes a ton.

869
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 1: The running back is back as long as you can

870
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 1: do it all catch and run. But that position, we thought,

871
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:24,839
Speaker 1: oh it was dead. No one's messing with him. It's

872
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:29,200
Speaker 1: all about the quarterback. And now find me a good

873
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 1: Andy Reid, who is probably one of my best habvy

874
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 1: coaches in league history, just gave a running back three

875
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 1: year contract forty five million dollars. The guy had like

876
00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:44,320
Speaker 1: nine good games, great college player, but a little risky.

877
00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:46,040
Speaker 1: But he's like, we need a really good running back.

878
00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker, come on down, eight Chan. I wanted to

879
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,439
Speaker 1: call him ETN, but he said his name was eight Chan.

880
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,640
Speaker 1: Saints gave him a bunch of money. The running back

881
00:48:56,960 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 1: everyone thought was dead. Just shows you football is very

882
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: fickle things that like, obviously you're always gonna need tackles

883
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,480
Speaker 1: and pass rushers. Those are those are never gonna go

884
00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 1: out of, go out of, you know, style. But it

885
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: felt like the running back was just dime a dozen,

886
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:19,239
Speaker 1: find three guys off the street. Not really the case.

887
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,400
Speaker 1: Three years ago, Christian McCaffrey best player forty nine or

888
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Last year in the Super Bowl, didn't win it.

889
00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 1: Last year, two years ago, Saquon Barkley best player on

890
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:35,480
Speaker 1: the Eagles, Super Bowl champion. Last year Kenneth Walker went

891
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 1: on an incredible hot streak and as John Schneider said,

892
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 1: made enormous plays in our big games and got a

893
00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:49,400
Speaker 1: huge contract. After running back matters, always has, always will,

894
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:53,520
Speaker 1: and it's it really matters now. What I wanted to

895
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:59,440
Speaker 1: do before I got out of here is someone had

896
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,760
Speaker 1: had said, you know, you broke down the coach's photo.

897
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:10,040
Speaker 1: You broke down the GM photo. How about you give

898
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 1: some thoughts on the Jay Glazer video on them drinking

899
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:21,719
Speaker 1: at the pool. I've seen pictures of this before. I

900
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:25,759
Speaker 1: didn't know this was an annual thing that as they've

901
00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:29,520
Speaker 1: talked about. Mike Tomlin Glazier put this on. They wanted

902
00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:31,799
Speaker 1: to get all the coaches in the league out for

903
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 1: basically a happy hour. Where I come from happy hour

904
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,399
Speaker 1: starts at about four, This happy hour starts at one. Never

905
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 1: opposed suns Out Pool happy hour going on all four.

906
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:48,280
Speaker 1: It this builtmore hotel where they stay at the first

907
00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:53,240
Speaker 1: long weekend. My wife, she wasn't even technically my girlfriend.

908
00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 1: Then we had on like our third night of just

909
00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 1: having a lot of fun. We like, what are we

910
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:02,919
Speaker 1: gonna do to It's like, you know Arizona, and I wasn't.

911
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:06,319
Speaker 1: This was like twenty twenty one or two. She's like,

912
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 1: you could just go to pools and pay for a

913
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,279
Speaker 1: day pass and they're just sweet. I'm like, that's not

914
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,719
Speaker 1: I didn't really do that in the Bay Area. Why

915
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:16,440
Speaker 1: would you. That doesn't really exist, Like, oh, let's do that.

916
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 1: It's like she's like, it's like twenty bucks, you know, random,

917
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:21,960
Speaker 1: especially like a Sunday, We'll go to this historic hotel

918
00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:24,319
Speaker 1: and you just drink and get food. So we just

919
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 1: went there, got blasted on like a Sunday, I don't

920
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,000
Speaker 1: even know when it was, probably May, and just had

921
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,440
Speaker 1: a good time at the Billbore Hotel exactly at the

922
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,520
Speaker 1: pool where they were. So it was kind of nostalgic

923
00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:39,000
Speaker 1: seeing these guys sitting around. But Jay Glazer just gets

924
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,320
Speaker 1: all these guys together and they just kick it. And

925
00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:44,920
Speaker 1: right when I saw it, like, I had like seven

926
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:48,919
Speaker 1: thoughts and the first thing I thought of, the first

927
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 1: thing you see. I mean, anyone just needs to go

928
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,319
Speaker 1: to Jay Glazer's Twitter, needs to go to his Instagram,

929
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:57,879
Speaker 1: and you can just watch this video. You just see

930
00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 1: Brian Schottenheimer and Robert Sawa just kind of hanging. They're

931
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 1: kind of in no man's land because there's this long table.

932
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,239
Speaker 1: You got a bunch of guys at both ends, and

933
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:12,400
Speaker 1: they're just kind of in the middle, probably making some

934
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:14,760
Speaker 1: small talk, not sure they know each other that well.

935
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,439
Speaker 1: They don't want to dive into other people's conversations. They're

936
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:20,440
Speaker 1: kind of you know, Robert Solid, this good looking bald guy,

937
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 1: gives up a peace sign, but then as he scrolls,

938
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:29,440
Speaker 1: he immediately goes to this crew of Shanahan Matt Ryan

939
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:35,759
Speaker 1: and Lafloor, not Matt Lafleur, but Mike telling them, and

940
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:38,400
Speaker 1: you could hear him say Whisper Rock which is one

941
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 1: of the coolest golf country clubs here, which is where

942
00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 1: all the pro athletes and all the former pro athletes

943
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:46,480
Speaker 1: and all the sticks, all the pro golfers go. It's

944
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,879
Speaker 1: just a cool hay and him telling them about that,

945
00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 1: and you can see Matt Ryan and Kyle holding their

946
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,160
Speaker 1: cocktails just like shaking their head like this place is sweet.

947
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,160
Speaker 1: And then he pans a little bit more. And the

948
00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:01,920
Speaker 1: first guy you see, Dan Campbell, but sitting next to

949
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:06,400
Speaker 1: Dan Campbell is Michael Phelps. And first and like, honestly,

950
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,799
Speaker 1: when I first saw Michael Phelps, I thought it was

951
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:11,200
Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni. But then you do a double take, a

952
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:13,680
Speaker 1: little too skinny for Sirianni. And then Jay Glazer said,

953
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:16,239
Speaker 1: look that's Michael Phelps. I'm like, that's kind of weird,

954
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:19,880
Speaker 1: and then you realize Michael Phelps, Michigan guy. They're probably

955
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,040
Speaker 1: telling stories. And then he pans a little bit more.

956
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 1: I think it's Kurt Menafie is just they're hanging as

957
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:28,759
Speaker 1: well with John Lynch. So what is Dan Campbell and

958
00:53:28,800 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 1: Michael Phelps talking about My guess would be Dan as

959
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:37,319
Speaker 1: fascinated when Michael was training the diet. Look at Dan,

960
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he this dude likes to eat. And you

961
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 1: got John Lynch just chiming, and I can see Dan

962
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 1: Campbell just wanting to know about big hits in like

963
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:46,839
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety six, and Michael Phelps just taking it in

964
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:49,359
Speaker 1: and then he pans a little bit more. And this

965
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 1: is the only time I felt just a little sorry

966
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:54,759
Speaker 1: because I like this guy. I think he's smart. I'm

967
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:57,720
Speaker 1: actually think he's gonna be a good coach. But anytime

968
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,160
Speaker 1: you're the new guy to the group, and that's the

969
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 1: advantage from Michael Floor. His brother's been a head coach forever.

970
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,439
Speaker 1: He's worked with all like seven of these head coaches. Right,

971
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:11,080
Speaker 1: known Kyle for like twenty years. Buddies with Sala just

972
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 1: knows this crew, Kubiak, you got Jeff Haffley. It's kind

973
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,760
Speaker 1: of a no man's land, who's just kind of sitting

974
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:21,560
Speaker 1: by himself, like not probably quite confident enough to just

975
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 1: go kick it with Phelps and Dan Campbell, not quite

976
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,600
Speaker 1: cool enough to just go hang out with McVeigh and

977
00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:31,239
Speaker 1: Sean Payton can't just go like sit there with Matt

978
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:35,399
Speaker 1: Ryan and Kyle Shanahan. So he's kind of doing what

979
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:37,880
Speaker 1: if they put me or you in this situation and

980
00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,680
Speaker 1: they just say, Hey, we're gonna take you to this

981
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 1: drinking situation with all these coaches, it's just gonna be

982
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 1: all the NFL head coaches, kind of the younger, cooler ones.

983
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,399
Speaker 1: Where would you sit. You would kind of just sit

984
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:53,160
Speaker 1: in a weird spot by yourself and probably not talk

985
00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:56,040
Speaker 1: to anybody. That's what Jeff Haffley was doing, just kind

986
00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:58,680
Speaker 1: of sitting there like, God, I hope I win and

987
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:00,239
Speaker 1: I'm pretty good, and these guys like me in a

988
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,439
Speaker 1: couple of years, like I'm in one of these conversations.

989
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,800
Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, you see Sirianni sitting

990
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:10,080
Speaker 1: there too, with Todd Munkin. That's Sirianni's won a super Bowl.

991
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 1: You got Munkin, who's I bet on being one and done?

992
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 1: You got half lou just not trying to ruffle any feathers.

993
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 1: And then Sirianni's sitting there, Who's like, oh, this this

994
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:24,400
Speaker 1: story's coming out about Jalen, I better buckle up. And

995
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:28,239
Speaker 1: then my favorite part of this drinking session of this

996
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:32,560
Speaker 1: is like this is where the young hotshots sit. You

997
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:36,640
Speaker 1: got Joe Brady, You got Sean McVay, who's wearing just

998
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:40,920
Speaker 1: a skin tight blue like probably like Rams undershirt. You

999
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:45,759
Speaker 1: got Liam Cohen, you got Lafloor's hair just perfect. You

1000
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,160
Speaker 1: got Mentor who's not quite that cool, definitely not that

1001
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:51,480
Speaker 1: cool looking, but he's really good at his job, so

1002
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,279
Speaker 1: they kind of invited him over. And you got just

1003
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:58,720
Speaker 1: holding court with just a full crisp beer in his hand,

1004
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,839
Speaker 1: of just talking NonStop. I think he might be wearing

1005
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:05,040
Speaker 1: a Sunday Red shirt. Is Sean Payton, and he is

1006
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:10,239
Speaker 1: just telling stories. Joe Brady's laughing, Laflora's laughing. McVeigh standing there,

1007
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,480
Speaker 1: just waiting when he can tell stories. But I can't

1008
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 1: even imagine what Sean. I mean, Sean Payton just guy

1009
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,399
Speaker 1: likes talk, you know. And honestly, if I was there,

1010
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:22,759
Speaker 1: I would have, if I was half lee, I would

1011
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:26,480
Speaker 1: try to work my way over to Sean Payton just

1012
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:28,560
Speaker 1: so I could listen. Because that's the key. When you're

1013
00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 1: in one of those environments and you're not really supposed

1014
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,759
Speaker 1: to be there, well, maybe you are supposed to be there.

1015
00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:37,600
Speaker 1: But you're not really welcome, right. It's like a club

1016
00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 1: that you're in, but like you haven't really paid the

1017
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,319
Speaker 1: dues yet to sit with where you kind of want

1018
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:46,560
Speaker 1: a one day sitting. You just got to position yourself

1019
00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:49,400
Speaker 1: to kind of the crew that, especially in that situation,

1020
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,319
Speaker 1: is gonna be the most entertaining. So I felt bad

1021
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 1: for Halfley. Hell is that John Harbaugh? Yes, John Harbaugh,

1022
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:59,360
Speaker 1: But Sean Bae. I think it's safe to say that

1023
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:02,840
Speaker 1: Sean Payton is uh, you know, he'd be a great podcaster.

1024
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:11,239
Speaker 1: He likes to talk the volume mm hmm,
