I need to quickly remin end everybody 15 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,319 Speaker 1: the Lakers are not dead yet. You know. People try 16 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,679 Speaker 1: to shovel shovel dirt on the grave this week after 17 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: a couple of losses, um, but thankfully Dennis Shrewder returned 18 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 1: to save the day. No, he did not Lebron. You know, Lakers, 19 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: they got it together. They beat Portland last night pretty handily, 20 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: pulled away in the third and fourth quarters for an 21 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: easy win. And um, yeah, Lakers are not gonna be 22 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 1: cratering um deep into the West. I still think, you know, 23 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 1: we could talk about this later, that there is a 24 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: chance they fall to the three four five seed. Um. 25 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: Before we get to Russell Wilson, I will say the 26 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: Lakers had the third easiest schedule in the first half 27 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,759 Speaker 1: of the NBA season. They have now the third most 28 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: difficult schedule in the second half of the season, including 29 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: eight back to backs and you know, thirty six year 30 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: old Lebron eight back to backs. That could get dicey. 31 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: But we're gonna start the show with the NFL because obviously, um, 32 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: when a Super Bowl winning quarterback who is still in 33 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: his prime, and I would a Russell Wilson at thirty 34 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: two is still in his prime when he makes a 35 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: statement that I'm getting sacked too much and I need 36 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: some help. And listen, I just went to the Super 37 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: Bowl and watched Tom Brady, and you know we're not 38 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 1: in contention like that. Like Russell Wilson really popped off 39 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: this week. It was a bit surprising, And I want 40 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 1: to back up a little to the movie The Usual Suspects, 41 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 1: a classic one of my You know, it's difficult to 42 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: rate movies because there's so many genres and um, you know, decades, 43 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: like it's tough to compare an awesome movie in the 44 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: eighties to an awesome movie today. But for whatever reason, 45 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: for me, The Usual Suspects completely holds up. And I 46 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: don't know, you know, the statute of limitations on giving 47 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: a spoiler on a movie that's over twenty years old, 48 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: but I think I'm in the clear. How many years 49 00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: is it? Okay, We're We're fine. If you haven't seen 50 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: The Usual Suspects, maybe you know ear Muffet for a second. 51 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: So in the movie, you know they're trying to figure 52 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 1: out who kais are so say is And there's all 53 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: these bread crumbs throughout. If you watched closely, and if 54 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: you've watched it five or six times like I have, 55 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: you are familiar with a man. I can't believe I 56 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: didn't see that the first time, because my jaw dropped 57 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: in the final end of the movie. It was incredible. 58 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: But there's all these small, tiny hints throughout on repeated 59 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: viewings that you're like, man, you had to see it coming, 60 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: and and very few people that I know, on the 61 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: first viewing saw the ending coming to usual suspects, which 62 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: makes it great. If you start backing up on Russell 63 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: Wilson versus Pete Carroll, you kind of miss a few 64 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: of the bread crumbs, and they were out there, and 65 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: I guess, first you gotta start with the legion of 66 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: Boom versus Russell Wilson. And there was an idea that 67 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: this team thrived and was successful and got to Super 68 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: Bowls because of Richard Sherman, Camp, Chancellor Earl Thomas, and 69 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: they were phenomenal, but there the tiny needling of Russell 70 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: Wilson from those three. Primarily those three really lit a 71 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: fire under Pete Carroll because if you looked at the 72 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: way he coached the Seahawks, it was defense first, we 73 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: want to run the football, and then the legion of 74 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 1: Boom kind of falls apart and Russell Wilson has to 75 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: do everything himself. Of course, I gave the analogy of 76 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: the strongman competition, where a guy ties a rope around 77 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: his waist and he's got to tug a mack truck, 78 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: just gotta get down, really get down on all fours 79 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: and and try to pull a mack truck with a rope. 80 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: And that's been Russell Wilson these last few years. And 81 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: the haters will say, well, it's funny, j since the 82 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: Legion of Boom fell apart, Russ hasn't been to an 83 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: NFC championship since two thousand fourteen. What do you have 84 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: to say about that? Was it Russ or the Legion 85 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: of Boom? And I say, well, again, if you want 86 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,520 Speaker 1: to take the time and look at the advanced stats 87 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: and look at the analytics and nerd out, then Russell 88 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: Wilson is undeniably a top five quarterback in the NFL. 89 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: It's not even close, and he has been over the 90 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: last five years. But the bread crumbs between Pete Carroll 91 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson Russ has wanted to cook forever and Pete 92 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: Carroll has always been like, you know, let's hold off 93 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: on that, let's run the football. And it got frustrating. 94 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: If you watched the Brian Schottenheimer led offense. Of course 95 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: he's gone now. He got dusted because he's not a 96 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: good offensive coordinator. But he took cues from Pete, we're 97 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: gonna run the football. Will let Russ make some plays 98 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: if we're behind, Russ save us. But they never really 99 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: let Russ cook. And finally this past season, Russell Wilson 100 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: is given the green light. Hey, we have no defense, 101 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: we've got injuries. Glory Russ take us to the Promised Land. 102 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: And Russell Wilson was the m v P for the 103 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: first half of the season. But then the bread crumbs started. 104 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 1: Oh he had a bad game against Buffalo, four turnovers. Oh, 105 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: he had three turnovers against the Rams back to back, 106 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: and Pete pulled the rugout from Underham said no more, 107 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 1: we're gonna run the football. And now Russell Wilson after 108 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: I don't know what nearly a decade I guess nine 109 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: years and eight or nine years in Seattle, and he's 110 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 1: ready to move on. And I don't blame him. We guys, 111 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: we did this with Kevin Durant and Lebron I've done 112 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: I've said this about Aaron Rodgers for years. If you're 113 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 1: not happy, get the hell out of there. This idea 114 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: that a quarterback has to stay. Really, why just because 115 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: you were drafted there? Matt Stafford said, guys, we had 116 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: a good run. Can you give me a chance to 117 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 1: win somewhere else? Detroit said, we'll do it. Carson Wentz, 118 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: I'm unhappy being the backup. Trade me. We'll trade you, 119 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz. Deshaun Watson, I want out of here and 120 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: we're not gonna Russell Wilson. I want out of here. 121 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: And what does Seattle do do? They say, no, we're 122 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 1: not trading you. Seattle unbelievably pushes back. They pushed back 123 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: on him this week, and that's when Russ's agent came 124 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: back over the top. Oh yeah, we don't want to 125 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: go were but these are the four teams we'd be 126 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: traded to. Seattle hasn't responded to that one. And guys, listen, 127 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: I know Dallas Cowboy fans. They watched Undisputed a lot. 128 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: They yelled at me all week, and I'm just saying, 129 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: for right now, the Slam dunk Win is Russell Wilson 130 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: to the Cowboys. I mean, it's there's no bones about it. 131 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: If you can get Russell Wilson, you get it. And 132 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: I love this deal. I had Daniel Jeremiah on my 133 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: Straight Fire podcast a couple of weeks ago, and he 134 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: did this experiment on me. That kind of you know, 135 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: made me laugh, he said, Jason, the Texans want three 136 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: or four first round picks for Deshaun Watson, and the 137 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders are saying, oh, four first round picks. I 138 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: don't know. Well, let's look at their four first round 139 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: picks the last few years and what did they have? Nothing? 140 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: You would trade those four guys for Deshaun Watson in 141 00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: a heartbeat. Well, I'm gonna ask Jerry Jones, Jerry, get 142 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: your recent first round picks, look at him. Would you 143 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: take four of those guys and package them for Russell Wilson? 144 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: Of course you would in a heartbeat, Like why would 145 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: you not? I'm at the point, guys where I actually think, 146 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: unless you have a top five pick in the NFL draft, 147 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: first round picks are overrated. Here are dallas Is last 148 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: four first Now I can't obviously mention two thousand nineteen 149 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: because they didn't have a first. Last year's Ceedee Lamb, 150 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: awesome player, five touchdowns. I like him. One day he 151 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: could be a top five, six seven receiver in the NFL. 152 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: They did not have a first. Layton vander esh really 153 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: nice players, played thirty five games. He's been a starter 154 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: almost since he got there, there's been some injuries. He 155 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 1: has one and a half sacks and two picks. He's 156 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: a good player and seen Taco Charlaton Taco. Yeah. Now 157 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: this is where it gets interesting. First round pick of 158 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, number four overall, Ezekiel Elliott, and guys. I 159 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: have to say, since the football season ended, I have 160 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 1: not received more angry notes from people than when I 161 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: said the Cowboys should put Ezekiel Elliott in the package 162 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: for Russell Wilson. And it well, here's the thing. It 163 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: was anger from Seattle fans, and it was anger from 164 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: Dallas fans. Seattle fans, why would we want Ezekiel Elliott? 165 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: He's washed up? Are you kidding me? Ezekiel? Who wants him? 166 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: I said, Zeke turns in July and Gavitt I want 167 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: to remind people with this Carolina Houston Texans dance that 168 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: they're doing, perhaps for Deshaun Watson. I hear people say 169 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: maybe they'll throw Christian McCaffrey in the trade, and it's like, wait, 170 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: so they could put Christian McCaffrey in the trade, but 171 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 1: Dallas can't put Zeke Elliott. But I'm a thousand percent 172 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: on board that The running backs don't really matter unless 173 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: you have a coach who's obsessed with running the football, 174 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: and we've got that in Pete Carroll. Pete Carroll seems 175 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 1: to want a game manager who can hand the ball 176 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: off and win with defense. Chris Carson, Yes, Chris Carson 177 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: has been hurt. He's also a free agent. Carlos Hide 178 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: also a free agent. And again, I'm not saying you 179 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: trade a quarterback and getting running back in return. That's 180 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: not what the deal is about. It's twofold for me. 181 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: I don't want to pay Dak Prescott thirty eight million dollars. 182 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: I don't. Maybe Seattle does. I'm guessing they don't. I'm 183 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: guessing Seattle doesn't want to pay him thirty eight million. 184 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: So if I can say, Jerry, give me two or 185 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: three first and Ezekiel Elliott, is that gonna get it done? 186 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: Does Pete Carroll do that? Now? I know Sneider the 187 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: gm IS is a really sharp guy. And a lot 188 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: of people listening right now are gonna say, who would 189 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: want Ezekiel Elliott? Well? What about this russ Is I 190 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: think on the books for thirty two million this year. 191 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: If Pete Carroll can say, get me a game manager 192 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: for half that who can hand the ball off and 193 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: make the winning make some good place, and then I 194 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: can spend the rest to fortify a defense. I'm on 195 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: the uptick again. Now, can you sell that to your 196 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: fan base? I don't know. I don't know. Seattle fans 197 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: don't seem to love the idea of Zeke Elliott. Listen, 198 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: I'm not out here claiming Zeke Elliott is amazing. He 199 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: is a very good running back. He has been an 200 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: All Pro. He's a dual threat, meaning he can kill 201 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: you on the ground. He's a good pass blocker and 202 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 1: well that would be a triple threat um. And he's 203 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: a good good out of the backfield catching passes. Now, 204 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: if if I'm Seattle and I say, well, okay, well, 205 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: who's my game manager quarterback? I don't know. Ryan Fitzpatrick 206 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 1: has been known to win seven eight nine games? Is 207 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: he your bridge quarterback? Do you take the tenth pick 208 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: and draft a quarterback? Now? Four are probably gonna go 209 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: in the top ten, so you might be out of 210 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: luck there, but you've got options. You could say Jamis 211 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: winston't come on down, We'll pay you thirteen million dollars 212 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: for one season. Prove it. Well, we got Zeke Elliott, 213 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: we have a young DK Metcalf. Remember Jamis thrived in 214 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: Tampa throwing the deep ball to Mike Evans. Could Jamis 215 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: thrive in Seattle throwing the deep ball to DK Metcalf 216 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 1: handing off to Ezekiel Elliott. The offensive line has some issues, 217 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: but are they not going to have issues when Russell 218 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: Wilson comes back to town and he not only you know, 219 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: threw them under the bus, he ran them over. That 220 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: put it in reverse, like he really trashed the offensive line. 221 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: Now I'm not saying they're good, but if I'm Russell Wilson, 222 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: I don't know how I go and look these guys 223 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: in the eye when I basically said, like, we're not 224 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 1: a good team anymore. We don't have play, we don't 225 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: have pieces. I'm sick of getting sacked. Um. I think 226 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: Dallas has to make a move on Russell Russ, Russell Wilson, 227 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: I mean, Gavitt is there. There shouldn't be pushback on this, 228 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: right logically, not from the Dallas side. I think the 229 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: question is will Seattle want whatever Dallas can offer them? 230 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 1: That's where I I question, you know, yeah, and it 231 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: really comes down. You know, Jason Pete Carroll is sixty 232 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: nine years old, he's gonna be seventy soon. Why are 233 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: we listening to what this guy wants to do? You know? 234 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: And there's a that's a great thought. You're gonna fire 235 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll right now and bringing a new coach who's 236 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 1: gonna say, Russ, let's do your thing. Because Russ doing 237 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: his thing does work. Evin, it was very productive early 238 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: last year, which is what I never understood why they 239 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: didn't go back to that after they pulled the reins 240 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: off for us, they went to the ground and pounded 241 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll what he wanted to do. That didn't work, 242 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: and they didn't go back. So I don't know, but 243 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 1: it makes some sense. From Seattle, there's you know, Dak 244 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,839 Speaker 1: Prescott a little bit easier of a quarterback to handle. 245 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: Right now, I think, uh, but if you're Seattle, do 246 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: you want to pay? You know, I don't Dad would 247 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: pay that would probably want to. Right He's gonna cost 248 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: more than Russell Wilson, and he's a lesser quarterback, undeniable. 249 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: That's why it's tough. So I guess, you know, coming 250 00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: up next we you know, we could do honestly three 251 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 1: hours on Russell Wilson and how good he is. Because 252 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: there's a segment of people out there, Yavin, there's people 253 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: out there who don't really think Russ is that good 254 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: of a quarterback. Um A fun stat that I dug 255 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 1: up for undisputed. So, Russell Wilson has led Seattle to 256 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: eight seasons of ten wins eight since he got there. 257 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: Dallas has six ten win seasons this century, Okay. And 258 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear the legion of boom of 259 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: the reason for all the ten win seasons, Folks have 260 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: been gone for like three or four years. Okay. Russell 261 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: Wilson has means so much to that franchise that Seattle 262 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: would not listen to him, that Houston won't listen to 263 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson, that Green Bay won't listen to Aaron Rodgers. 264 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: It's it's stunning, folks. Coming up next year on Fox 265 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, the latest on Deshaun Watson and the Texans. 266 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: They're gonna standoff. I found it funny that zero time 267 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: head coach David Culley sat down with Deshaun Watson and 268 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: tried to like convince him to play, and Deshaun Watson 269 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: is like, Yeah, that not happening. I mean a sixty 270 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: five year old guy who's been around the league for 271 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: a long time, DeShawn Watson, no disrespect colleague. Deshaun Watson 272 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: went to two national title games at Clemson, one one. 273 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: He's been in the playoffs in Houston, I believe three 274 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: or four seasons, or maybe it was two or four 275 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: because of the injury. Um. This idea that you can 276 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 1: sit down a head coach and convinced Deshaun Watson to 277 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 1: say is comical and that just shows what a joke 278 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans are.

And you know, 332 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: he's moving his parents into the house so they'll pay him. 333 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: But I will say, um, you know, I was out 334 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania before we got out to l a In 335 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: There wasn't this idea of onward and upward in Pennsylvania. 336 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: And we were not in the sticks. We were in 337 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: Bucks County, you know, pretty nice suburb of Philadelphia. And 338 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 1: out here, man, everybody is just always thinking what's next. 339 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: How can I level up? Whether it's investments, real estate, um, 340 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: or maybe it's just where I am in life now. 341 00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: But we're getting pitched a lot some interesting stuff, let's 342 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: just say, um. And it is fun Gavin to like 343 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: think about, hey, should we invest X amount here and 344 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: maybe it's a ten x upside here in the next 345 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: five ten years. Um. And that stuff to me is fun. 346 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: And and if you know, to pivot to the NFL, 347 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: if I'm the Carolina Panthers and I'm run by a 348 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: hedge fund billionaire, and you know they like to look 349 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: at distressed assets. That's what the hedge fun guys do. 350 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 1: Okay that you know that's a business. We think we 351 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: can uh buy it, kind of gut it and then 352 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: flip it for a profit. Um, they're looking for edges 353 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: and angles. And somebody um mentioned on social media to 354 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: me that yes, first round picks are overrated. Look at 355 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 1: the Rams, and I had totally forgotten. The Rams are 356 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: basically saying, give us stars. You know, we don't want 357 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: first round picks. We like Aaron Donald, we like Jayla Ramsey. Um, 358 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna give Matt Stafford a shot, and we don't 359 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: care about first round pick. And there is something to that. 360 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 1: And if I'm the Carolina Panthers, I'm on the horn 361 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,400 Speaker 1: with the Houston Texans. Guys. Watson's made it clear he's 362 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: not playing. He's sitting out. He's going to sit out. 363 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: He's not gonna play. Here's three or four first round picks. 364 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: We'll we'll do it. Carolina is interesting. They got out. 365 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: You know, they got a top ten pick. Um, I 366 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,120 Speaker 1: don't know that they'd have any players. I mean, if 367 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: I'm Houston, I guess I would lobby from McCaffrey. And again, 368 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: I'm not a running back guy. However, this is an 369 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: offseason where Houston lost a the best player in franchise 370 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 1: history in J. J. Watt and now be the best 371 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: quarterback they've ever had in Deshaun Watson. So I mean, Gavin, 372 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: who's the face of the Houston Texans right now heading 373 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: in the next season assuming Watson's gone? Oh man, that's it. 374 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 1: On some level, I can see the argument for adding McCaffrey, 375 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: even though, like you know, his contract isn't great, but whatever. 376 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: You need somebody to get people excited to buy tickets, 377 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: right yeah. I mean if you would have to ask 378 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: the Panthers, you know what their defensive tackle depth chart 379 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 1: looks like. I mean, they got one last year in 380 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: the top ten, Derek Brown. They got Brian Burns coming 381 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: off the edge. Like they don't have a ton on defense. 382 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: They have two good young players. Um, but you know 383 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: the other thing you were mentioning in first round picks. 384 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 1: Look at what the Titans are doing with Isaiah Wilson 385 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: after one year, one tough year for that tackle, and 386 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: they're already shipping him out like they're they're looking for 387 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: the guy who said he put out something on social 388 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: media this week about he's done or no, I think 389 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: he was the guy went to Georgia really good offensive tackle. 390 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: Um didn't play a ton this year, and then when 391 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: he did, he wasn't terrific. So they're already trying to 392 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: move on from him, basically admitting their mistake, bad pick. 393 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: And a lot of gms are they're willing to do 394 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 1: that now, and a lot of owners are not worried 395 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: about money anymore because such a crap shoot. I mean, 396 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: unless you're in the top ten, I would have even 397 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 1: narrowed down to top five because we've seen top ten 398 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: and I'm telling you, like again, if you guys have 399 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 1: listened to straight Fire, you know this is not a surprise. 400 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 1: Jail and Waddle and DeVante Smith are awesome college football receivers. 401 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,719 Speaker 1: They're probably gonna do well in the NFL. I'm not 402 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: taking them in the top ten. I'm just not these 403 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 1: small guys, These small receivers, the history says they a 404 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: will get hurt or be They're just not going to 405 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: deliver like they did in college. I mean, Davonte Smith 406 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: is running around opposing secondaries in college like it's a 407 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: high school game. He's just torching them. I don't see 408 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: him doing that in the NFL coming up next year. 409 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,439 Speaker 1: On Fox Sports Radio. He had to Boston, he was 410 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: known as the White Mamba. He's currently a Celtics analyst 411 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 1: NBC Sports Boston. Brian Scalabrini, Brian, how are you man? 412 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: I'm doing well. You guys, I'm great. You know, can't complain. 413 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: You know, it's a pandemic. But I I'm still gonna 414 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: use the word great because I'm a positive guy. Uh 415 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 1: And I think Brian Boston could probably use a little 416 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: positivity right now. Huh. Well, good Wayne. Last night Kimba 417 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: Walker was was awesome. They when they started the game 418 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:59,959 Speaker 1: out down eighteen four. But Kimba, which is really an 419 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: interesting because Kemmam is some time at the beginning of 420 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 1: the year. Kemba doesn't play him back to backs, and 421 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: so the rest of the guys just like they're dragging 422 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: a little bit. And I think a lot of teams 423 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 1: have gone through this, But Kimba looks fresh, and I 424 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: think that's the reason why he was able to sort 425 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: of will the self still win. But you know, it's funny, 426 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: the NBA is all bottled bottled up outside of the 427 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: top three, at least in the Eastern Conference. And if 428 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: they can win these next three games, heading into the break, 429 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 1: There'll be some momentum and then I think all those 430 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: problems that were happening when you're a half game out 431 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 1: of fourth but you're sitting in ninth the people. The 432 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: people team to overreact to ninth, But all you have 433 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: to do is win a couple of games and you'll 434 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: be back up at fourth. All right, Brian Scalabrini, let 435 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: me ask you this. I tried to make this point 436 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: on Undisputed and Chris Broussard and rick Yuker's heads exploded 437 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 1: that the best team to challenge the Brooklyn Nets, because 438 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: of what they can do on the wing defensively, is Boston. 439 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: They are great with when Marcus mort t Helthy, Tatum 440 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 1: and Brown. Philly doesn't have anything like that. Milwaukee doesn't 441 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 1: really have anything like that. I think when Boston's Helsea, 442 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 1: this team is going to make a run. I bought 443 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: them low this week. I don't know if you do 444 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: much gambling, Brian, but their odds to win the East 445 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 1: are not terrible. I think it's plus. But I'm just 446 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: curious your thoughts on the upside of this of this 447 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 1: Boston team that everybody's down on right now. Yeah, I mean, 448 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: so Kimba Walker, Marcus Smart, Brown Tatum, they've only played 449 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: twenty eight minutes together. Um, their bigs are good, Like 450 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: I think they're solid when you talk about Tristan Thompson, 451 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: Daniel Tis. But as of right now, we're halfway through 452 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: the season and they don't necessarily have an identity, and 453 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: I think it's really important to have an identity and 454 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: understand who you are. You think about the Lakers and 455 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: their identity, We'll go with Utah Javing of Miami, who 456 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: also is known to have a pretty good hard playing identity. 457 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: Like the Cellfis haven't bound themselves yet, and you know, 458 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: when you're halfway through the season and you haven't figured 459 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: that out, it does become tough. But injuries coming to play, 460 00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: Kimba Walker, sitting out of back to backs, coming to 461 00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: play markets, you know, in his nbing out pay them 462 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: with COVID, all these things. It's such a weird year. 463 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 1: So I will say this, I don't know where we're 464 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: gonna be at when the fans come back. I don't 465 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: know if we're gonna be at half capacity. I had 466 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: no idea what it's gonna to the fight. When the 467 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 1: playoffs roll around, but I do know that for a 468 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 1: team like Milwaukee, who you mentioned in Boston, like, they 469 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: need those that home court advantage. That's they've relied on 470 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: that for years and years and years. To comments the 471 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: reason why the Celtists have gotten so close to the 472 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: to the NBA Finals, are got to the Eastern Conference Finals. 473 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: They do well in the regular season and it's a 474 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 1: really tough place to play in Boston at that time. 475 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: So I do think they have a chance. But um, 476 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 1: as far as why you took that bed and why 477 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 1: it's one's probably because no one looks at Boston has 478 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 1: a team that has that identity. Interesting, all right, So, Brian, 479 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: I've had this theory for a couple of weeks. Um, 480 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: if you look at the final four teams from the bubble, 481 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: Denver's hovering around five. Miami has been under five d 482 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: much of the season, Boston struggling. The only team that's 483 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: been impervious is the Lakers, but they had the easiest 484 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 1: first half schedule. Do you think there's a bit of 485 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: a bubble hangover shortest off season in the history of sports? Yeah, 486 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 1: I do. I do. And you think of teams like 487 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: the Utah Jazz, who were bouncing in the first round. 488 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: They're playing well. Phoenix Suns, they had a good run 489 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: up into the playoffs, but then they got out of there. 490 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: They didn't make that the playoffs or the play in games, 491 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: so they're having a good season. So yeah, I think 492 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 1: it's even more than just the final four teams. I 493 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: think you didn't even go a little bit past that. 494 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: The Milwaukee Bucks had their their point. They they lost 495 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: five in a row, but then they won, uh four 496 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: of the last five. So you know, like every team 497 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, has hit that that that that bump 498 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: in the road, especially those teams in the bubbles. So 499 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: I do think that those teams just look a little 500 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: bit worn down. I think COVID has something to do 501 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: with it, with you know, when guys are now missing, 502 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: they're missing games at a time, And there's the Celtics 503 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: had the least amount of home games because they had 504 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: like a poor game homestand and three of those games 505 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: got canceled and they even replaced the necessarily a place 506 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: them with home games. So know, it's just there's just 507 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: a lot of things that factor into all that. But well, 508 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: if you're I know what you're looking at, you're laying 509 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: out the talent, like the talent of Denver with Jamal Murray, 510 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: who's not even Allstar. Like, if you saw Jamal Murray 511 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: play last year the bubble, how could you imagine him 512 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 1: not even being an All Star this year? So I 513 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: do think it's has affected uh some guys, and usually 514 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: those top tier players who you know, get that break 515 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: in the off season, get away before they start training again. 516 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,959 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's a little bit different. Anomaly in all 517 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 1: this is Lebron James, who it's been fantastic and you 518 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: know you expect him to be the guy that kind 519 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: of slowed down. Yeah, one more Boston question, Brian, I'm 520 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: a little puzzled that people are going after Brad Stevens 521 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 1: and people aren't shining the spotlight on Danny Angel. I 522 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 1: know he drafted Brown and Tatum, but you know it's 523 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: been pointed out that, uh, you know, Danny Angel at 524 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: Al Horford walk for nothing and Kyrie Irving left for nothing, 525 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: and as of now they haven't gotten anything for Gordon Hayward. 526 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 1: It's tough to walk watch like one of the three 527 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: or four best guys on your team walk out the 528 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: door and get nothing in return. Is anybody talking in 529 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: Boston about Danny Ainge being a bigger issue right now 530 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 1: than Brad Stevens. So you know, in Boston they can't 531 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: get it right, right if you signed Gordon Hayward, No, no, 532 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: just think about it. They signed Gordon Hayward, and everyone's 533 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: mad at Gordon Hayward for signing for a hundred and 534 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: twenty million, and then when he walks away four years later, 535 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 1: when they think that he didn't perform to the level 536 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 1: that he needed to perform to and he signed a 537 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty million, people are upset that he walked. 538 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 1: You gotta pick one in the situation. You know, the 539 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,479 Speaker 1: same thing with Al Horford. People were mad at Al 540 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: Horford for signing for you know, a hundred million, which 541 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: there was a no brainer, but when you think about 542 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: the game changing but out here Al Horper's not worth 543 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: the money, and then all of a sudden he walks 544 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: and you get nothing, and now of a sudden you 545 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: want him back like you can't. You can't play both 546 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: sides right, And that's a I feel like with me, 547 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a problem out here. Like 548 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: I'm pretty consistent, um when it comes to the way 549 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 1: I look at these teams, and I like the team. 550 00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 1: I think they they have a chance to be good. 551 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,719 Speaker 1: I think Brown and Tatum are going to develop into, 552 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: you know, superstar players. And I'm really realistic that being 553 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: a superstar player bringing at night in and night out 554 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: and affecting your team and making guys around you better, 555 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: it's not an easy thing to do. But Kidam is 556 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: twenty three years old, Brown is twenty four years old. Like, 557 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: these guys have like a long ways to go before 558 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: they're that superstar player. I believe in those guys to 559 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: develop into that, but I'm also not annointing them. You know, 560 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: like all NBA players right off the jump, I think 561 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: it takes some time to get there. So I think 562 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: in Boston right now, you know, I think the reason 563 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: why I would say the ownership, management and coaches are 564 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: all on the same page as of right now what 565 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: they're trying to do, and they all know exactly where 566 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: they're at. They don't believe in expectations and all these 567 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: other things that other outside sources put on the Celtics. 568 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: They just know who they are what they are. And 569 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna here and say they're not disappointed. They 570 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 1: are disappointed. They thought the role players would be better, 571 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: and they thought some guys would come in and play better, 572 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: and those guys haven't at this point. So I wonder 573 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: if any typically does not make small moves. I wonder 574 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: if he will make some kind of small moves around 575 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: the trade deadline. Interesting? Alright? Final question on on Celtics 576 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: or former Celtics Kyrie Irving. Um, you know, I don't 577 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: want to go after him and take shots, but this 578 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: is a guy who refused to play with Lebron James 579 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,479 Speaker 1: after winning the title, refused to play for Brad Stevens 580 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: said I'm done here. Go builds a super team in Brooklyn, 581 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: and now he looks to be the third guy. Because 582 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I personally think James Harden is a bunch 583 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: of better player. Um. Any projections down the road on 584 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving, because remember when Kevin Durant comes back, that's 585 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: twenty shots that are going away from everyone else, and 586 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm assuming a lot of gonna go away from Kyrie. 587 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: Any projections on how this works out with Kyrie and 588 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: Harden and Katie. So So, Kyrie is a special offensive 589 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: player and he can he can dominate a lot of 590 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: different ways offensively. I think I think that really the 591 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: only issue is there's two things I think are coming 592 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: into play here. I think Kyrie is really loving not 593 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: playing with fans, not fans like yelling at and not 594 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 1: having to go on the road and these hostile environments 595 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. I really believe that he is um. 596 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: I think that he has really enjoyed this. If you 597 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: go to NBA games right now, I call this healthy game. 598 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: So I get a chance to go the I've never 599 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 1: seen NBA players still relaxed in their environment right now. There. 600 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: Their benches are all spread out. You remember how it 601 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 1: used to be, right you guys like all cramped in 602 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: there and and people telling them to sit down. Like 603 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: the the environment right now in the NBA for players 604 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: is as relaxed as you'll ever see. Now. There are 605 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: moments where you need the fans to help you like 606 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: generate energy. But I think Kyrie is really enjoying. And 607 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: we're a guy who talks about mental health and safe 608 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: space and all this other stuff. I think he's one 609 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: of the guys out there that is enjoying this relaxed 610 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 1: environment where it's like almost like a pickup environment. I 611 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: like I said, it's it's hard to analyze this year 612 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: because I don't have any experience playing without fans. I 613 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 1: had no experience of going to the bubble, so I 614 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: don't know if it turns into what it was before 615 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,239 Speaker 1: where fans are coming back. I have no idea, Like 616 00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: I'm not a health or states the expert on this one, 617 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: but I do think there are a lot of players 618 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: out there that are really enjoying it. I thought Miami 619 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: enjoyed the bubble last year with Duncan Robinson and Tyler 620 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: Hero knocking down shots, and it was a shooter gym, 621 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: the same gym, not traveling all that stuff. So there's 622 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: a lot of things factoring into that. I, like I said, 623 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what the result in the playoffs are 624 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: going to be. But my guess is like Kyrie is 625 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: gonna feel that pressure later on if he has to 626 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: go into a Milwaukee and they and they have a 627 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: sold out crowd, which I have no idea that what 628 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: happened or not. Alright, thirty seconds are less top shot, 629 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: give give the audience your elevator pitch. I am not 630 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: fully sold yet, but it doesn't matter. I'm curious, what 631 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: do you mean you're not fully sold? You think it's 632 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: like a fake, like all this stuff that really yesterday. 633 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll give you my I'll give you my 634 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 1: my point, my point, so I get I get packed. 635 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: I'm always up to get more packed. I'm always trying 636 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: to get more players. I'm collecting players who I like. 637 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: I'm collecting players who I think are going to be 638 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: better than than what people give them credit for. Some 639 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: guys are super hot and and I don't and I 640 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: like him, but I'm like, I'm not going there. You know, 641 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: some guys are like killing and Hayes right now. I 642 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 1: like him a lot. He's not playing with Fort Detroit. 643 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: So I'm trying to load up on guys like that. 644 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 1: I gotta stop you, Chillian Hayes. You're investing real money 645 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 1: in this guy. Yeah, I am. I'm looking. I'm on 646 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: the lookout for it's all. But you said you you 647 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: you bought low on Celtics to win it, all right, 648 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: I'm trying to I'm looking at talent. I'm looking at talent, 649 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: talented players and trying to um like things that guys 650 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: I really like. And first of all, I also like 651 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: this interview. I like Marcus Smart as a player, So 652 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: I want to collect I want to collect players that 653 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: I like.

I'm curious where 701 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,759 Speaker 1: you are On Top Show. Preston made the hard sell. 702 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: Was it two weeks ago or last week? That was 703 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: last week? This week Scalabrini made the cell Yeah, it's 704 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 1: I'll tell you, Jason. I'm leaning towards it, jumping in. 705 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 1: I'm already into crypto, right, I got into some of 706 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: the Robin Hood stuff. I'm kind of into this Top Shot. 707 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:38,280 Speaker 1: I still don't like that we're talking about essentially trading cards, 708 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,919 Speaker 1: but they're not physical. It's a digital thing. I could 709 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 1: screen record, right, and I could I could record a 710 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: gift myself, but but um no, it's very interesting. And 711 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: then the other thing I'm weary of is the aspect 712 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 1: of a league being so behind it? Yes, So so 713 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, I'm texting with some friends about this because 714 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,320 Speaker 1: you know, people are like, hey, this is crazy. Should 715 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,399 Speaker 1: we jump in? And I'm like, I don't know. I mean, 716 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 1: like a couple hundred bucks. Fine, you'll toss in a 717 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 1: couple hundred bucks. But I mean Preston said he he 718 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: owns fiftent I believe of that card. That's what's aft 719 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 1: and he paid some real money for that. Um, I 720 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 1: don't know, man, it you know what it is, though, Jason, 721 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 1: it's hard to feel like you're going to be the 722 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: one left out right. You feel you're worried about missing up. Man, 723 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: I missed the boat on bitcoin. It's up to what 724 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,280 Speaker 1: did you see? It was over fifty then a plunge 725 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 1: and that's back up up. So I'm curious. Is that 726 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: a Wall Street bets? Have you been on there? I've 727 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,439 Speaker 1: been taking a break from that too, so right, I mean, 728 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, I had the morning show this week, so 729 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 1: I didn't. I haven't really looked at the stock park 730 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,279 Speaker 1: a much. I just saw it was down big. But 731 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: why this whole foamo thing? I try not to really 732 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 1: get that you know, it's hard to put your money 733 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: into Foamo, Like I'm missing out and I'm gonna throw 734 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: money into that, you know. Yeah, But like Tesla, do 735 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 1: you want a lot of Tesla? No? Yeah, Wen, Peloton, 736 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:11,320 Speaker 1: Peloton stock that's a fit's something physical, right. I believe 737 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: in Pelton. Like there's chatter out there that Peloton is 738 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: so attractive to say an Apple, because Apple humored the 739 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: music with the Peloton. Everybody who has at Peloton is 740 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: a high net worth individual. Well not everybody, but most people. 741 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,959 Speaker 1: They want to stay physically fit. They're willing to spend 742 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 1: thirty minutes or whatever on a bike. Like if if 743 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: you're if you've got a Peloton, you've probably got some 744 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: money and you're attractive to advertisers. So they're gonna get 745 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: gobbled up eventually. So that's that's a smart bet um Tesla. 746 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: I don't the production just isn't there, and I don't 747 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 1: want to make this a stock market show. But when 748 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: you look at down like top shot, I don't listen. 749 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: I'm not pooh pooing it. People don't yell at me. Yes, 750 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 1: if you want me to throw in five hundred bucks, fine, 751 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: I'll toss in five hundred bucks the Top Shot and 752 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: let's try to make something happen. But I don't have 753 00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: the energy in the bandwidth to be spending a lot 754 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 1: of time watching the market. I don't want to get 755 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: left holding the bag ovn alright, coming up next Fox 756 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, brandon Ingram taking shots at Lebron.

But Friday Night Lights, I mean, Gavin, 817 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 1: this is one of the great I mean, it's incredible, 818 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 1: and you know they watched the first episode. They were 819 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 1: a little sad when Jason Street went down with the paralysis. Um, 820 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 1: but then you know, Matt Saracen comes in and wins 821 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 1: the game. It's like, it's a great show. I think. 822 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 1: I don't know that it's wholesome, but it had some 823 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: good values, but it's it might be a little much 824 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: for elementary school kids because if I remember, there was 825 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 1: some PG thirteen steamy scenes if you will, um on 826 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 1: the show. But yeah, I'm very open to hearing um 827 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 1: what shows you guys are showing your kids now outside 828 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: of like the Nickelodeon, Disney Channel stuff. But we've got 829 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: to get to sports here and actually talk about Brandon 830 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 1: and a guy who um listen, Brandon name is a 831 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: nice player. I don't think he's an all Star this year. 832 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,399 Speaker 1: He was last year and he came out of Duke. 833 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,919 Speaker 1: He was supposed to be incredible, and he's never really 834 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:15,239 Speaker 1: put on weight. His game is nice. You know, he's 835 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 1: putting up solid numbers four, six and five or something 836 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 1: like that. He's having a good year. And somebody asked 837 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:25,800 Speaker 1: him about playing with Zion Williamson. And here is Brandon 838 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,760 Speaker 1: Ingram of the Pelicans, perhaps throwing some shade at Lebron James. 839 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 1: I've never played with a players talented as me. Um 840 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 1: He's a generational talent where you don't know what you're 841 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: gonna get from him every single night, and this is 842 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 1: gonna be something different. It's gonna be something inside of him. 843 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 1: And I like to feed off that, or I like 844 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: to come into the game and be ready because I 845 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: know he's going to be ready. So it's good to 846 00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 1: have another All Star warside me and having the same 847 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 1: mindset as me going into the games. That's going to 848 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 1: just try to be the best player that he can be. 849 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 1: I've never played was a player as talented as me. 850 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:09,719 Speaker 1: Lebron was his teammate for a year. So does that 851 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 1: mean that Lebron's just like above Brandon ingraman Zion, or 852 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 1: does that mean Lebron's not as talented as Brandon Ingle? 853 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 1: Because I looked it up in Lebron average and eight 854 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 1: in his one year with the Lakers, I have him 855 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 1: as the greatest player in NBA history, above Michael Jordan's UM. 856 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 1: And that's not dissing Jordan's UM. I have also said, 857 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,840 Speaker 1: if the game was forty eight minutes to no overtime, 858 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:37,320 Speaker 1: I would have the first forty seven from Lebron in 859 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:41,319 Speaker 1: the final minute from Jordan's Lebron makes his teammates better. 860 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 1: Lebron also trades his teammates, including Brandon Ingle. But listen again, 861 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 1: you don't want to kill Brandon England for this because 862 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:55,800 Speaker 1: maybe he misspoke. Maybe he's just still salty that Lebron 863 00:44:55,880 --> 00:45:00,399 Speaker 1: shipped him FedEx style to New Orleans. But Gavin, to me, 864 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 1: this is clearly another shot at Lebron from another one 865 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:08,280 Speaker 1: of his former teammates, right right. He did not misspeak. 866 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: This was calculated um. The only defense of his comments 867 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,960 Speaker 1: could be the year he spent with Lebron wasn't a 868 00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 1: great Lebron year. He got hurt, he had you know, 869 00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:26,480 Speaker 1: obviously he personally win. After Ingram by getting him the 870 00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 1: hell out of there. So he's got a little chip 871 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,359 Speaker 1: on his shoulder over that. So, you know, you can't 872 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,480 Speaker 1: put too much stock into what people think of someone 873 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 1: when they're at a low moment, Like Lebron was not 874 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 1: super happy that season. I give him a lot of 875 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 1: credit this season because they're going through a tough stretch 876 00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 1: right now and he seems pretty positive. You know. Um, 877 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 1: but no, this was calculated and I think this was 878 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 1: a you know, he feels hurt that. You know, Brandon 879 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,919 Speaker 1: Ingram has been his whole life. He's been the star 880 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 1: wherever he goes. He's the guy. He goes to the 881 00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:00,239 Speaker 1: Lakers and he gets booted out of there. He wants 882 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: to take a shot at him. You know, listen, we 883 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,759 Speaker 1: all have an ego, okay, and you know I I 884 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 1: always try to be authentic with you guys. I just 885 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,319 Speaker 1: feel like you'll know if I'm faking the funk um. 886 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 1: And you know, it's funny. I appreciate Gavin saying this, 887 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 1: but off air, he's like, you know a lot of 888 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 1: people change when they get to California. I feel you're 889 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:20,399 Speaker 1: kind of the same, Jason, And I'm like, yes, that's 890 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 1: not you know, I'm not changing. Um, I have an 891 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: ego when it comes to radio and TV, Like I 892 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 1: think I'm better than a lot of people out there. 893 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 1: You know, if I were hypothetically traded from one network 894 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 1: to the other, what I say, Yeah, like I'm playing 895 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: with the bad guys that are on my level. Now, guys, 896 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 1: you know, do I think I'm a better radio host 897 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 1: or TV personality? Of course I do. I think there's 898 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 1: something wrong with you if you don't. But there is 899 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 1: also an awareness level when it comes to Lebron James, Like, 900 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:55,759 Speaker 1: even if you don't have him as the greatest of 901 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 1: all time, you've certainly got him too or five or 902 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 1: ten or whatever. And he traded you for Anthony Davis 903 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 1: and then he won a championship, Like, I know that's 904 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: gotta hurt personally. That's got to be a ding to 905 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:11,160 Speaker 1: Brandon Ingram's ego. And he's a young, rich guy who's 906 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: immensely talented. Uh, but should they face some reality? Like 907 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 1: I always say, I want complete candor from athletes. I 908 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: want them to be honest. Was this honesty? And and and 909 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:28,759 Speaker 1: now am I taking a shot at Brandon Ingram? I 910 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know. I don't feel like he's 911 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:35,959 Speaker 1: being honest. I even I played in a basketball league 912 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 1: with some guys um from from FS one, and you know, 913 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 1: we were good. I think we lost in the semifinals. 914 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 1: The other team brought in a ringer. Uh. If you 915 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 1: actually listen to the radio tapes, I think I talked 916 00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,399 Speaker 1: about that. I was so angry. You know, we show 917 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,320 Speaker 1: up to play this team, which we had already played, 918 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 1: and you know, we had a little bit of a 919 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 1: scouting report on them, were like, we can hang with him, 920 00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 1: we can beat these guys. They're good. They have one 921 00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 1: player who's awesome. And then they show up and they 922 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,080 Speaker 1: bring in this like six five black guy who played 923 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: in college basketball. It's huge guy, and I'm like, what 924 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 1: what is this? You know, they brought in a ringer. 925 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: This guy could clearly play. He was awesome, and you know, 926 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,719 Speaker 1: they beat us by like four, and you know, we 927 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:13,800 Speaker 1: lost in the semifinals. The reason I remember that game, 928 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,920 Speaker 1: it's because it was on the night of the election 929 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 1: when Hillary lost. We started the game and they're like, oh, 930 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:23,239 Speaker 1: Hillary's dominating, and then like it's halftime, it's like whoa, 931 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,279 Speaker 1: some things are changing, okay, And then after the game 932 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 1: it's like oh my gosh, Hillary lost or Trump and 933 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 1: I'll never forget because we lost the game, and then 934 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 1: the election happens and I'm like, well, this is unforgettable night. Um, 935 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,919 Speaker 1: and I left. I stopped playing with that team because 936 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 1: it was a bit of a drive, you know, and 937 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,240 Speaker 1: the wife wasn't thrilled that I'm driving out and missing 938 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:46,279 Speaker 1: putting the kids to bed. Uh, so I can play basketball. 939 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: And then I was already playing local basketball, so I 940 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: had to drop that league. So you know what happened. 941 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 1: The next year, Chris Brussar joins the team because they 942 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 1: needed a guy, and they win the championship, and of 943 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 1: course Brussard is out here. Well yeah, they added me, 944 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,040 Speaker 1: and now we won the chip and I'm like, well, 945 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 1: first of all, that other team that we lost to, 946 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:07,360 Speaker 1: they weren't even in the league. They had to go 947 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 1: play in a higher league. But at any rate, of course, 948 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 1: I'm telling brus And I'm a better Pascot player than you. 949 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,359 Speaker 1: I don't care that you played high school and you uh, 950 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 1: you know, had some D three offers or whatever. That 951 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,520 Speaker 1: was forty years ago, old man, and I said, let's 952 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: play one on one and then he kind of ducked me, 953 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,359 Speaker 1: and then I couldn't play the one day he could, 954 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 1: and we never got to play. And now he's like, listen, 955 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 1: I'm out of shape. Okay, I haven't played basketball in 956 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:30,839 Speaker 1: a year and a half. I can't I'm not doing it, 957 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,360 Speaker 1: and so we never got to play. But in my head, 958 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 1: even though Brusart played at levels I didn't scored. He 959 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,319 Speaker 1: was like an all city guy in Cleveland or where 960 00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 1: Acron or whatever it was, I still think, yeah, I'm 961 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 1: a better player than you, And that's some ego on me. Now, 962 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,240 Speaker 1: the reality is, if we play and he beats me, boom, 963 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 1: I'll give it to him. So the reality is Brandon 964 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:53,399 Speaker 1: Ingram should see that Lebron got a d and won 965 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 1: the chip, and Lebron was the MVP of the finals, 966 00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:57,919 Speaker 1: and Jana said Lebron was the best player in the league, 967 00:49:57,960 --> 00:49:59,400 Speaker 1: and now Lebron's a leader for the m v P. 968 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:03,759 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just Lebrun was in the m 969 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 1: v P discussion. Up until this week, at thirty six 970 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 1: years old, Brandon Ingram has never been in an m 971 00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 1: VP discussion. The other person betting on himself. And we're 972 00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 1: gonna get back into this later, you know, think about 973 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. Their stories now that he might sit out 974 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 1: next year. The reason he might sit out is because 975 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 1: he knows he's only twenty five years old. He can 976 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:23,440 Speaker 1: come back and still have a Hall of Fame career. 977 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:27,560 Speaker 1: He doesn't need one year, one more year with a 978 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:30,920 Speaker 1: terrible franchise to prove that to his next team. Yeah, 979 00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 1: and let me ask you who's a better player right now? 980 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:40,240 Speaker 1: Brandon Ingram's Zion Zion. Honestly, Zion is unstoppable. He's basically 981 00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: the most dominant interior player in the League's in shack. 982 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: He hasn't even sniffed his prime, played I think fifty 983 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,600 Speaker 1: five career NBA games. He right now, he's top five 984 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,960 Speaker 1: in player efficiency rating because when he touches the ball, 985 00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:57,840 Speaker 1: it's a bucket. He's averaging six and three. And listen, 986 00:50:57,880 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 1: he's not really shooting threes at all, and he can 987 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:04,760 Speaker 1: to shoot him um. But he is an supremely dominant 988 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:08,000 Speaker 1: player on the interior. Last Sunday, they had an incredible 989 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: comeback to beat the Celtics, and with the game on 990 00:51:10,120 --> 00:51:13,440 Speaker 1: the line, they get it to Zion. He drives on 991 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:17,319 Speaker 1: Tristan Thompson, who is a large man. He's six eight, 992 00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 1: probably two fifty. Zion just lowers the shoulder and Tristan 993 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:24,359 Speaker 1: Thompson falls over like he's got hit by a feather. 994 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:29,839 Speaker 1: And I mean Zion Williamson easily scored the game winner there, 995 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 1: or maybe it went to overtime or whatever, but they 996 00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 1: won and Zion was dominant and nobody right now can 997 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,840 Speaker 1: stop him. Nobody. If you guys watched the game, I 998 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 1: think it was Thursday night, Yeah, Thursday night or last night, 999 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:42,239 Speaker 1: one of them. Um, they went toe to toe with 1000 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,600 Speaker 1: the Bucks and Zion was get whatever he wants. Like 1001 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:47,400 Speaker 1: Brandon Ingram is a really good player. I got the 1002 00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:52,120 Speaker 1: numbers now, he's twenty four, five and four. Um, he's 1003 00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:55,919 Speaker 1: a good player. But like I don't, I just don't 1004 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 1: know what a guy is supposed to say there, you 1005 00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: know I I I don't want to go after Brandon 1006 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:05,360 Speaker 1: him because he feels like a nice kid. Um. I 1007 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: I like the Pelicans as a as as an upside team. 1008 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 1: The problem is they just don't have the guard play. 1009 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 1: I don't trust a Lonzo, I don't trust blood so um. 1010 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,839 Speaker 1: I like Josh Hart, but they're just they're just too 1011 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 1: young right now, all right, coming up next year on 1012 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. Um, we'll do a little NFL coming up, 1013 00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,239 Speaker 1: but NBA, I really think there's only one team that 1014 00:52:27,280 --> 00:52:30,280 Speaker 1: can challenge the Brooklyn nets k D not back until 1015 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:33,800 Speaker 1: after the All Star break, but there is one squad 1016 00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,359 Speaker 1: that can. Nobody really agrees with me, but I think 1017 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: you might. That's next year. On Fox Sports Radio, Call 1018 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 1: on Farmers and you could save on your auto insurance. 1019 00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:45,360 Speaker 1: What else are you gonna do with your phone in 1020 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,319 Speaker 1: the next few minutes?

Sam sees what we're talking 1026 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 1: about next and he queues up this song. He's a 1027 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:12,880 Speaker 1: smart guy, Gavin, and I would say I have a 1028 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: little positive thing going on there. It's me Jason McIntyre 1029 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 1: live from the Farmer's Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studios called 1030 00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 1: one eight eight Farmers to switch and you can save 1031 00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 1: a bundle on your auto insurance. I don't know what 1032 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 1: I said with a positive thing going on there? But 1033 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 1: synergy is the word I was looking for, and I 1034 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 1: tried to sell Brian's Scalabrini. We had him on last 1035 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 1: Hour on the idea of the Boston Celtics being undervalued 1036 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 1: UM sixteen and seventeen currently after the win last night 1037 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 1: over Indiana, on the Celtics being the biggest threat to 1038 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:50,160 Speaker 1: the Brooklyn Nets in the East. Tell me if you agree, 1039 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 1: listen to this. Right now, we're halfway through the season 1040 00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,120 Speaker 1: and they don't necessarily have an identity, and I think 1041 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:58,919 Speaker 1: it's really important to have an identity and understand who 1042 00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 1: you are. You think about the way Ers and their identity, 1043 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,759 Speaker 1: like the Cellfis haven't bound themselves yet, and you know, 1044 00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 1: when you're halfway through the season and you haven't figured 1045 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 1: that out, it does become tough. But injuries coming to 1046 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:11,600 Speaker 1: play Kemba Walker, sitting out of back to backs, coming 1047 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:13,879 Speaker 1: to play markets, you know, and his mbing out pay 1048 00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 1: them with COVID, all these things. It's such a weird year. 1049 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 1: So I will say this, I don't know where we're 1050 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,440 Speaker 1: gonna be at when the fans come back. I don't 1051 00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:24,319 Speaker 1: know if we're gonna be at half capacity. Is I 1052 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: had no idea what it's going to the fight when 1053 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:28,960 Speaker 1: the playoffs roll around. But I do know that for 1054 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:32,399 Speaker 1: a team like Milwaukee, who you mentioned in Boston, they 1055 00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,520 Speaker 1: need those that home court advantage. That's Da've relied on 1056 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:40,240 Speaker 1: that for years and years and years. I'll totally agree 1057 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,799 Speaker 1: with him on the home court advantage being key. But 1058 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:48,800 Speaker 1: at the same time, I just think back which team 1059 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 1: gave the Juggernaut Warriors. Was Curry and k D and 1060 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:58,720 Speaker 1: Clay the most trouble? You'd have to say the Cavaliers, right, well, 1061 00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:00,920 Speaker 1: I mean I was gonna say huge rockets pushed him 1062 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 1: to seven. And what did they do? They switched everything right. 1063 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,360 Speaker 1: They were able to match up on the wings with 1064 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:13,319 Speaker 1: the Warriors. They had p J. Tuckers, your small ball guy, 1065 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:15,879 Speaker 1: you had Eric Gordon, you had Chris Paul, James Harden. 1066 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 1: They were switchable on the wings. And the Warriors prevailed 1067 00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:23,640 Speaker 1: in seven, but they won. Um, I just look at Boston, 1068 00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 1: I say, man, Marcus Smart, Tatum, Brown, Kemba, you know, 1069 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 1: to a lesser extent, Grant Williams. Um these guys on 1070 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:39,640 Speaker 1: the wing can hang with hardened Kyrie and Katie. I 1071 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:41,359 Speaker 1: think I don't know if they'll beat them. I would 1072 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,319 Speaker 1: say odd, the odds are against them. But when you 1073 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 1: look at the Sixers, like, who are the wing guys, 1074 00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 1: Tobias Harris not known as a defender, Seth Curry, No, 1075 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 1: but they don't have the wings. The Celtics are really devoid. 1076 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,360 Speaker 1: Like Danny Green's okay, but he's old. Uh. If you 1077 00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 1: want to say matist Tibo, He's a potentially very very 1078 00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:07,960 Speaker 1: good defender. I love Ben Simmons is a wing defender, 1079 00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:12,080 Speaker 1: but all of a sudden offensively then you can't keep up. 1080 00:56:12,320 --> 00:56:14,360 Speaker 1: Ben Simmons doesn't shoot threes. I don't know if you 1081 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:17,520 Speaker 1: can even play Ben Simmons and Thibo because you don't 1082 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,799 Speaker 1: have to respect them as shooters. And that's where it 1083 00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,920 Speaker 1: gets problematic for the Sixers. I really think Boston and 1084 00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 1: again right now, No, but my job is to make 1085 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 1: you think, be interesting, look ahead. And I've said this 1086 00:56:32,239 --> 00:56:37,000 Speaker 1: many times it is almost impossible to predict the future. 1087 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,480 Speaker 1: We're just not good at that as humans. If you 1088 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:46,759 Speaker 1: had told me five years ago, Jason in one, you 1089 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 1: are going to spend a week hosting on Disputed, You're 1090 00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 1: gonna have a daily podcast, you're gonna have a weekend 1091 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 1: radio show. You're gonna write gambling content. Now, five years ago, 1092 00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:57,239 Speaker 1: I would have been like, what first of all, daily podcast? Like, 1093 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,720 Speaker 1: nobody did? I mean the New York Times Daily podcast 1094 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:01,440 Speaker 1: wasn't even out five years ago. Nob we did a 1095 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:05,880 Speaker 1: daily podcast and Undisputed as a show. I don't even 1096 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 1: know if it existed. I think it came out in 1097 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: I had notes to the TV show. Ever, like gambling 1098 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 1: was still kind of viewed as like smoking, like, oh, 1099 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,080 Speaker 1: it's dangerous for your health. Oh, it's so risky, these 1100 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 1: shady characters. Like things changed quickly now in three months 1101 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 1: will change things change for Boston. I think rapidly things 1102 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 1: will be able to change as soon as they get healthy. 1103 00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:35,360 Speaker 1: Scalabrini said it, twenty eight minutes together for their best 1104 00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:40,920 Speaker 1: four players. This is a team that you know, steamrolled 1105 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 1: Philadelphia in the bubble. Now they Philly did not have 1106 00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 1: Ben Simmons obviously big, and they have you know, swapped 1107 00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 1: Josh Richardson out um and they got basically a brand 1108 00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 1: new backcourt with Seth Curry and Danny Green, Joel and 1109 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 1: Beads playing like an m v P. Boston smoked them 1110 00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:00,720 Speaker 1: and Boston now has two bigs, well three if you 1111 00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:04,120 Speaker 1: count Robert Williams, who had a monster night last night. Um, 1112 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 1: they have the bigs too slow, Janice or embiat I 1113 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 1: just again, if Boston doesn't get healthy, they're in deep, 1114 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 1: deep trouble. But other than that, I kind of think 1115 00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:16,120 Speaker 1: they can push the Brooklyn nets a little bit. And 1116 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:19,080 Speaker 1: and you know that first year the Warriors Big three 1117 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 1: got together, they made a run. I think it was 1118 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 1: four and no four no. And then the game one 1119 00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:28,600 Speaker 1: against the Spurs, and I'm going off memory here, they 1120 00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 1: were down like twenty in the third quarter. Zaza steps 1121 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,560 Speaker 1: on Kauai's ankle Kauai lost for the game. Warriors come 1122 00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:38,600 Speaker 1: back and win, sweep the Spurs, and they were gonna 1123 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 1: sweep the Calves. And it's funny because I had gone 1124 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:45,600 Speaker 1: on Cowherd Show and I said, I can tell you 1125 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:47,720 Speaker 1: this with confidence, take it to the bank. The Warriors 1126 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 1: are sweeping Lebron and they win the first two games 1127 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:54,080 Speaker 1: and I'm looking good, and they win game three. Remember 1128 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:57,320 Speaker 1: Kevin Durant came up splash that three in Lebron's eye 1129 00:58:57,320 --> 00:58:59,640 Speaker 1: with like fifty seconds left. It was like, oh three nothing, 1130 00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:02,760 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you I was ready to do a 1131 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:04,640 Speaker 1: victory lab And then of course the Cats hit like 1132 00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:08,919 Speaker 1: three point I think it was in Game four. They win, 1133 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,280 Speaker 1: you know, easily, and I look like an idiot, um 1134 00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 1: and then the Warriors win in in five, so they 1135 00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 1: went twelve and one. I think that was the greatest 1136 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 1: or was it sixteen in one? Gavin, there's three rounds 1137 00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:24,840 Speaker 1: in the West. I'm sorry, Yeah, sixteen in one and 1138 00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:27,320 Speaker 1: it was the greatest postseason run ever, better than any 1139 00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 1: Jordan postseason run. I mean, that Warrior's team was ridiculous. 1140 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:35,000 Speaker 1: I don't see the Nets going anywhere near sixteen and one. 1141 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:37,480 Speaker 1: You know, we don't how we don't even know if 1142 00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving's gonna show up. Let's be real, Let's be honest. 1143 00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:46,040 Speaker 1: There is some instability with Kyrie Irving, uh and the Nets. 1144 00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:48,360 Speaker 1: But there's definitely the favorites that I get that. But 1145 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 1: just keep an eye on the Celtics coming up next year. 1146 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 1: On Fox Sports Radio, will Dallas make a play to 1147 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,760 Speaker 1: Land Russell Wilson? You know, I'm a firm believer they should, 1148 00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:02,640 Speaker 1: But will they he? Uh? He covers the Cowboys. He's 1149 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,280 Speaker 1: gonna be a busy man this week. Just when you think, 1150 01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:09,240 Speaker 1: oh Man, finally a little respite. Michael Gelkin, Cowboys reporter 1151 01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:11,280 Speaker 1: for the Dallas Morning News. Mike, you're gonna be a 1152 01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 1: busy man here, Uh in the next I don't know 1153 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:18,080 Speaker 1: what's seventy two hours? Yeah, you know, dizzy dizzy is 1154 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 1: typical on the Cowboys. Be certainly you're always on dak 1155 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:25,600 Speaker 1: lots and different aspects of fregency. They are coming soon, 1156 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 1: so we'll be busy over here. Any early thoughts on 1157 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:32,120 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones making a move on Russell Wilson. I guess, 1158 01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 1: big picture, do you think give me a percentage chance? 1159 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:36,920 Speaker 1: You think Jerry picks up the phone and makes a 1160 01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:42,520 Speaker 1: good offer today, but today tomorrow maybe already did it. 1161 01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:47,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. Um, you know, I think it's a 1162 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 1: it's a it's a fun story. I think it's an 1163 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 1: Asian driven concoction, um, where he's putting four teams out 1164 01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 1: there very publicly. Uh you know, And I think in 1165 01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:00,480 Speaker 1: a way that some people would say maybe he's the 1166 01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 1: best way to handle things in terms of reflection on 1167 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson to insert yourself into other quarterback situations that 1168 01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:11,240 Speaker 1: are obviously delicate time. But aside from that, the Cowboys 1169 01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:14,480 Speaker 1: have been pretty stets asked about what they think of 1170 01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:17,120 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott. You know, he used their quarterback. They value 1171 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 1: him not only as a player, but as a person 1172 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 1: as a locker room leader. I think it's something that 1173 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:25,919 Speaker 1: unless you're around Dak Prescott regularly, it's difficult to fully 1174 01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:27,840 Speaker 1: appreciate in terms of who he is as a leader 1175 01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 1: and what he means to the organization, what he represents. 1176 01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:32,680 Speaker 1: The way that he comes into the building, how late 1177 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:37,040 Speaker 1: he's there at the building is energy that is effusive. 1178 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:38,920 Speaker 1: The way he engages with his teammates, the way he 1179 01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:40,680 Speaker 1: can connect with the thirty five year old and a 1180 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:44,560 Speaker 1: twenty five year old, all different races and ideologies. Um. 1181 01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:47,800 Speaker 1: He used his magnetic force inside the Cowboys locker room, 1182 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:51,920 Speaker 1: inside the Cowboys organization, inside the Star, and frankly they 1183 01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 1: need more of that internally in their locker room. Um. 1184 01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:59,360 Speaker 1: And so the idea that the Cowboys, while still in 1185 01:01:59,440 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 1: negotiating sations with Dak Prescott here in February, would abandon 1186 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 1: all of that, abandon who Dak Prescott is as as 1187 01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 1: as a player and as a person, and all that 1188 01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:14,480 Speaker 1: he represents. Abandoned that early negotiations relatively in terms of 1189 01:02:14,520 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 1: the two thousand one uh. You know, situation. UM, I 1190 01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:22,120 Speaker 1: think would be it's a total misnomer to represented as 1191 01:02:22,160 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 1: something likely, something worth spending a whole lot of attention on. 1192 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:28,960 Speaker 1: UM that it just um because Russell Wilson's agent mentions 1193 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:32,360 Speaker 1: that Cowboys doesn't mean that Russell Wilson's for the Cowboys today. Interesting. 1194 01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:35,040 Speaker 1: All right, So Mike, that's a strong pushback. Okay, I 1195 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 1: I think there's a discussion here. I'm trying to think, 1196 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 1: like you said, the word negotiations a couple of times, 1197 01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:46,320 Speaker 1: and I'm curious, does this Russell Wilson news help or 1198 01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 1: hurt Dak Prescott in his negotiations or is there no impact? UM? 1199 01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:55,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's part of the backdrop, part 1200 01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,720 Speaker 1: of the distant surrounding landscape. I don't know if it's 1201 01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 1: really at the forefront. UM. I think it just can 1202 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:04,240 Speaker 1: be categorized as to noise, and there's been a lot 1203 01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 1: of noise surrounding uh these discussions. UM. You know, I 1204 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,080 Speaker 1: don't think it's necessarily to your point, but certainly we 1205 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:12,440 Speaker 1: talk about negotiations. UM. It might be a bit of 1206 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:14,920 Speaker 1: a reach to say that it has always been in 1207 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:17,160 Speaker 1: negotiations between the two sides. It's been so much time 1208 01:03:18,120 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 1: a bit of the stand still. Um YEA to call 1209 01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:23,480 Speaker 1: it negotiations would be to suggest that there's been a 1210 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:27,640 Speaker 1: lot of discussion ongoing, and there hasn't always been over 1211 01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:33,240 Speaker 1: the course of this whole trial. But when you look 1212 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,560 Speaker 1: at where we are, which is where in the middle 1213 01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:37,680 Speaker 1: of the franchise that windows still fairly early in it. 1214 01:03:37,760 --> 01:03:40,680 Speaker 1: Until March nine do the Cowboys have to place the 1215 01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:43,680 Speaker 1: franchise tag on Dak Prescott no multi year deal is 1216 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:46,880 Speaker 1: reached by then, And if that scenario arises where there 1217 01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 1: is no multi year deal on marsh Nights, it's it's 1218 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:52,120 Speaker 1: locked in. They will place thirty seven point seven million 1219 01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,840 Speaker 1: dollar franchise tag on Dak Prescott. But here with that 1220 01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 1: deadline still, it's closing in, it's nearing, but it's not 1221 01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 1: it's not there yet. Um As close to that deadline comes, 1222 01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 1: the more these conversations will intensify. And even if the 1223 01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:12,160 Speaker 1: window passes where you know, March nep March ninth comes 1224 01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:14,600 Speaker 1: and goes, and he's been franchise tag, they still can 1225 01:04:14,720 --> 01:04:19,320 Speaker 1: continue long term contract discussions. Um so. And I think 1226 01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:22,360 Speaker 1: it's also important to remember just how much the ball 1227 01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:25,560 Speaker 1: is in Dak Prescott's court, where if the Cowboys wanted 1228 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:28,920 Speaker 1: to trade Dak Prescott today, to say the Houston Texans, 1229 01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:32,200 Speaker 1: they couldn't. They couldn't if they wanted to. He's not 1230 01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:36,440 Speaker 1: under contract when league year starts, which is win trades 1231 01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:39,320 Speaker 1: can be processed as soonest that they can be Um. 1232 01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:41,280 Speaker 1: Right now, he's not under contracts for the two thousand 1233 01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:43,360 Speaker 1: and twenty one season. If they were the franchise back, Um, 1234 01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:45,439 Speaker 1: you have to sign that contract in order to become 1235 01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:48,840 Speaker 1: trade eligible. Um. So Dak would need to sign some 1236 01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:51,320 Speaker 1: sort of contract with the Cowboys to be a franchise 1237 01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:54,520 Speaker 1: tach or otherwise before becoming eligible to be traded. And so, 1238 01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:56,400 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott if he wants to be a Cowboy, if 1239 01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:58,160 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to be a Seahawk, if you is 1240 01:04:58,200 --> 01:05:00,600 Speaker 1: intent on getting this deal done, then forget all this. 1241 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,960 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson talks on arrival. All right? So, Michael, what 1242 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:06,760 Speaker 1: about the aspect that if I just said, you know, 1243 01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson is cheaper than Dak Prescott would be over 1244 01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:13,360 Speaker 1: the next three years. Now, yes, it would cost us 1245 01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 1: several first round draft picks to bring in Russ, but 1246 01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:22,080 Speaker 1: Russ from a salary cap perspective, is cheaper I think 1247 01:05:22,080 --> 01:05:24,560 Speaker 1: it's three years over the next seventy million. According to 1248 01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 1: Pro Football Talk, Dak is I'm sorry, Russ is cheaper 1249 01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:31,720 Speaker 1: than Dak, and I think everybody would agree. Michael Russell 1250 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:34,000 Speaker 1: Wilson is a better quarterback than Dak. He is a 1251 01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 1: little older, but he's only thirty two. We're seeing Tom 1252 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:38,840 Speaker 1: Brady in the Super Bowl at forty four, Like thirty 1253 01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 1: two is not all by any stretch of the imagination. 1254 01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 1: Does Russ being cheaper suddenly become attractive to Jerry Jones? Well, 1255 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 1: I think to say that Russell Wilson is cheaper today 1256 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:50,960 Speaker 1: might not mean that Russell Wilson will be cheaper. You know, 1257 01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 1: for how long would that last? You know, it's obvious 1258 01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 1: that you know, say, for example, Derek Carr, he's cheap 1259 01:05:56,840 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 1: right now for the Raiders, but you think that point, well, 1260 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:04,240 Speaker 1: he's he's a very solid quarterback. But anyway he's he's 1261 01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:06,720 Speaker 1: someone who, um, you know very well can have a 1262 01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 1: contract negotiation that would propel him to be at a 1263 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:11,760 Speaker 1: higher value. So my point is that Russell Wilson, if 1264 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,080 Speaker 1: he might be cheap today, but you know, I don't 1265 01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:17,000 Speaker 1: know the agents thinking upon or does he want a 1266 01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:19,560 Speaker 1: new contract. He would think so because he is wellfully 1267 01:06:19,640 --> 01:06:23,480 Speaker 1: underpaid relative to other NFL quarterbacks of his caliber. So, um, 1268 01:06:23,560 --> 01:06:26,000 Speaker 1: you know, just because Russell Wilson might have a seemingly 1269 01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:31,000 Speaker 1: friendly contract doesn't mean that you aren't trading one difficult 1270 01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:34,920 Speaker 1: negotiation for another difficult negotiation. And if you're going to 1271 01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:37,880 Speaker 1: go ahead and uh, you know, should the farm in 1272 01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,120 Speaker 1: order to acquire a thirty two year old quarterback and 1273 01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:42,160 Speaker 1: multiple first round picks whatever you said that it would 1274 01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:44,720 Speaker 1: represent in terms of what it would take, then what 1275 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:48,439 Speaker 1: what what exactly? You probably want to be certain that 1276 01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:50,440 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson is going to be part of your franchise 1277 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:52,520 Speaker 1: for more than just three seasons. So those are contract 1278 01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:54,920 Speaker 1: negotiations that probably would have to take place prior to 1279 01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:58,040 Speaker 1: even completing the deal. So again, the problem for the 1280 01:06:58,080 --> 01:06:59,600 Speaker 1: Cowboys is, though, how are we going to get the 1281 01:06:59,640 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 1: stack you're taken care of. Let's go ahead and acquire 1282 01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:04,000 Speaker 1: a thirty two year old quarterbacks So I'm five years older, 1283 01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:06,400 Speaker 1: but no doubt accomplished and Profo Bahol of Famer and 1284 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 1: not diminishing at all Russell Wilson. But okay, we're gonna 1285 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,000 Speaker 1: do that, but we're trading potential one one problem for 1286 01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:14,480 Speaker 1: another potential one while losing a bunch of traft picks 1287 01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:17,160 Speaker 1: along the way. If that indeed would be the package, again, 1288 01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:20,160 Speaker 1: I think I think all this is very very pious Sky. 1289 01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:22,240 Speaker 1: I think it's very remote. It would spent a lot 1290 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:24,400 Speaker 1: of time on it. But um, if we're talking about 1291 01:07:24,440 --> 01:07:26,240 Speaker 1: what's probable what I think is going to happen, I 1292 01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 1: don't think it's gonna be Russell Wilson to the Dallas 1293 01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:30,680 Speaker 1: Capitalish alright, Michael Gilkin, Dallas Morning News, Mike, let me 1294 01:07:30,680 --> 01:07:35,160 Speaker 1: ask you this. Watching Jared Goff completely flop after getting 1295 01:07:35,160 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 1: his Monster deal, watching Carson Wentz absolutely flop after getting 1296 01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 1: his Monster deal, both getting traded, do you think that 1297 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 1: has any impact on Dallas's negotiations with that because you 1298 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,280 Speaker 1: could argue, hey man, Golf went to a Super Bowl, 1299 01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:53,120 Speaker 1: Wentz was nearly the m v P. Again it was 1300 01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:57,880 Speaker 1: it's only thirteen games. Um D's done none of those things. No. 1301 01:07:57,960 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 1: I know, Doc has a playoff win and Wentz doesn't. 1302 01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:03,600 Speaker 1: Blah blah, But I just I can't get over the 1303 01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:06,040 Speaker 1: idea of paying thirty seven point seven million on the 1304 01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:09,200 Speaker 1: franchise tag or a five year deal that Jerry wants, 1305 01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:11,520 Speaker 1: and Dax says, no, I want four, like it just 1306 01:08:11,560 --> 01:08:14,000 Speaker 1: seems like too much money to be spending when there's 1307 01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:16,640 Speaker 1: so many holes in the rest of the team. I 1308 01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:18,639 Speaker 1: think you shall be always be aware of certain market 1309 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:22,200 Speaker 1: trends and what's happening elsewhere around the league. Then again, 1310 01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 1: you know, if the Cowboys are really concerned about what 1311 01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:26,720 Speaker 1: was going on around the league, they probably wouldn't have 1312 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:29,920 Speaker 1: paid as much money as they did to Zeke Elliott 1313 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:31,599 Speaker 1: as a running back, when if you look at legal 1314 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:34,200 Speaker 1: trends that those would indicate to you that maybe you 1315 01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:36,679 Speaker 1: shouldn't spend that much money on a running back, however 1316 01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:39,640 Speaker 1: talented he may be. But obviously the Cowboys didn't care 1317 01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:42,400 Speaker 1: about that when signing the Biggiel to the deal that 1318 01:08:42,439 --> 01:08:44,840 Speaker 1: they did, making him at the time, I stay running 1319 01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:46,639 Speaker 1: back in the NFL, and I don't think it's real 1320 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:49,599 Speaker 1: concerned that the Cowboys went on with Jared Goff open 1321 01:08:49,640 --> 01:08:52,040 Speaker 1: on with Carson Wentz, because you know, it's it's about 1322 01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:54,320 Speaker 1: the quarterback that they know. You know, no one knows 1323 01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 1: your quarterback better than the team that has that quarterback, 1324 01:08:57,520 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys are convinced and who Dak Prescott is 1325 01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:03,160 Speaker 1: um you know, you could argue that the A team 1326 01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:07,519 Speaker 1: was overly aggressive when making uh those long term extensions. 1327 01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:10,000 Speaker 1: Certainly on the case of Jared Goff, I mean, what 1328 01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:12,519 Speaker 1: where was he in his career really, in terms of 1329 01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:14,240 Speaker 1: where was he in his development? Really? What had he 1330 01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:18,280 Speaker 1: shown the Rams really at that point they were aggressive 1331 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:21,439 Speaker 1: and there are upside. There's positive to being aggressive. As 1332 01:09:21,439 --> 01:09:23,559 Speaker 1: you're getting on in front of the market, you're locking 1333 01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:27,080 Speaker 1: up a quarterback to a deal that might seem really 1334 01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:29,559 Speaker 1: expensive at the time. But if you're a fast forward 1335 01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:31,879 Speaker 1: in two or three years, when the salary cap continues 1336 01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 1: its projected climb, then suddenly that lucrative contract extension becomes 1337 01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:38,719 Speaker 1: very team savvy to have done so in the past, 1338 01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 1: and so um. You know, in the case as Dak Prescott, 1339 01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:43,280 Speaker 1: the Cowboys have a lot of information. Uh. You know 1340 01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:45,800 Speaker 1: that that's been a part of the team now for 1341 01:09:45,800 --> 01:09:47,800 Speaker 1: for five seasons and even though one of those was 1342 01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:49,800 Speaker 1: abridged because of an ankle injuring weeks five of the 1343 01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:52,160 Speaker 1: last year. But the Cowboys are very very confident they 1344 01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,479 Speaker 1: have all the information that they need in order to 1345 01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:57,519 Speaker 1: make them feel comfortable to make Dak Prescott, Uh, you know, 1346 01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:00,920 Speaker 1: someone who will receive an extremely lucrative contract extension if 1347 01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:03,679 Speaker 1: they can agree to those parameters. Um. But right now, 1348 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:06,840 Speaker 1: obviously it's the negotiation phrases. We'll see what happens. But um, 1349 01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:08,720 Speaker 1: this is the deal that the Cowboys want to get done. 1350 01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 1: And because of the salary cap claimate for two thousand 1351 01:10:12,160 --> 01:10:14,120 Speaker 1: and twenty one, which is one that no one would 1352 01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:18,360 Speaker 1: have expected fully fifteen months ago. Um, you could argue 1353 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:21,479 Speaker 1: that it isn't Dak Prescott and the cowboys best interest 1354 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:24,120 Speaker 1: to get this done. The Cowboys from obvious standpoint with 1355 01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:26,880 Speaker 1: salary cat management, you know, boying at thirty seven point 1356 01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:29,479 Speaker 1: seven million dollar cap hit in two thousand twenty one, 1357 01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:32,360 Speaker 1: answered Dak Prescott to get out in front of this, 1358 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,880 Speaker 1: to understand that by playing under that tag, he really 1359 01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:39,160 Speaker 1: hamstrings and handicaps the Cowboys ability to build a quality 1360 01:10:39,240 --> 01:10:43,240 Speaker 1: roster around him. Get this deal done and help the Cowboys, 1361 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 1: help yourself, help your help your teammates be competitive. In 1362 01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:49,800 Speaker 1: two thousand one, Michael Galkin, Cowboys Reporter, Dallas Morning News. 1363 01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:53,160 Speaker 1: Great stuff.

I could not tell you like a grunge guy. 1404 01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm a guy's hipster. That was quite a scene that 1405 01:13:09,360 --> 01:13:12,720 Speaker 1: the grunge scene. Are you would you call yourself a hipster? No, 1406 01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:17,280 Speaker 1: I don't even hipster. And the hipsters, you know, it's 1407 01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:19,640 Speaker 1: weird to wear like tough jeans, you know, anything like that? 1408 01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:25,160 Speaker 1: Is that what hips?

I lived with him, so I 1410 01:13:28,080 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 1: really I'm hip, but I'm not a hipster. You make 1411 01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:33,559 Speaker 1: French press coffee? Is that? Like the guy in Billions, 1412 01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:39,559 Speaker 1: the who doesn't make French press coffee? Time on their hands. 1413 01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:41,720 Speaker 1: You gotta wait a whole four minute. The rest of 1414 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:46,240 Speaker 1: us use you know, kurigs. And then uh, by the way, 1415 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:49,160 Speaker 1: I did have I was remember I dropped coffee for 1416 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:51,840 Speaker 1: the month of October, Sober October, and then you know, 1417 01:13:51,880 --> 01:13:54,600 Speaker 1: I did it pretty well. I didn't obviously have no 1418 01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:57,920 Speaker 1: call no caffeine Halloween, That's what I called it. I 1419 01:13:57,960 --> 01:14:00,080 Speaker 1: like that. Um, did you go through any type to 1420 01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:02,840 Speaker 1: withdrawal when you Oh, yeah, initially there was, but then 1421 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:06,040 Speaker 1: you get through that tough, tough stretch. But I I've improved, 1422 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:07,599 Speaker 1: and I was only doing coffee like two or three 1423 01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,240 Speaker 1: days a week. But for undisputed being there, you know, 1424 01:14:10,320 --> 01:14:13,320 Speaker 1: four thirty am, I was like picking up the coffee 1425 01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:16,200 Speaker 1: at five as soon as Starbucks open, and I realized 1426 01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:20,400 Speaker 1: I had coffee every day this week so far. Okay, 1427 01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:22,760 Speaker 1: next week, I'm not doing it. Two cups, you know, 1428 01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:25,160 Speaker 1: it's just not good for the health factor if you 1429 01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:27,000 Speaker 1: drink like five to six cups. No. No, it's just 1430 01:14:27,040 --> 01:14:29,599 Speaker 1: like the one vent, the big one. It's like six 1431 01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:32,800 Speaker 1: hundred calories of garbage. Well, you don't need calories. You 1432 01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 1: don't need to get all the fluff in the fruit caramel. 1433 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:40,160 Speaker 1: But I get no whipped cream. I'm not a whipping 1434 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:43,519 Speaker 1: kind of guy. Um. Yeah, anyways, I do a splash 1435 01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:46,200 Speaker 1: a half and half. That's it. No sugar, yeah, not 1436 01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:49,240 Speaker 1: non fat milk is definitely the way to go. Um. 1437 01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:52,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. Should we talk about the Jets are coffee? 1438 01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:55,280 Speaker 1: You know, they're kind of the same. No, there's no 1439 01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:58,000 Speaker 1: coffee allowed for the Jets because there's Doug Gottlie a 1440 01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:02,840 Speaker 1: little overrated only for closers, and the Jets don't have 1441 01:15:02,880 --> 01:15:05,920 Speaker 1: any closers. But I will say this, somebody mentioned the 1442 01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:08,559 Speaker 1: nickname to me, like, how are you? I think the 1443 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:11,320 Speaker 1: text just said where are you? On the Mormon mahomes 1444 01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:14,360 Speaker 1: And I had to think for a moment Mormon Mahomes. 1445 01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:16,920 Speaker 1: And then it's Zach Wilson. B y u. That's what 1446 01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:21,120 Speaker 1: they're starting to call him, folks. There's pretty clear separation 1447 01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:22,519 Speaker 1: at this point. At the top of the draft, it's 1448 01:15:22,560 --> 01:15:26,880 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, no no denying, he's number one, and then 1449 01:15:26,960 --> 01:15:30,599 Speaker 1: number two is Zach Wilson a k a. The Mormon Mahomes. 1450 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 1: And you know, coming up next after this show, uh, 1451 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:35,720 Speaker 1: in like an hour and fifteen hour, ten minutes is 1452 01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:41,639 Speaker 1: up on Game with LaVar Arrington, Hushvenzada and um Flexico Burris. 1453 01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:44,000 Speaker 1: They have Little Wayne on today, by the way, not 1454 01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:48,000 Speaker 1: a bad get, guys. Uh. You know, I think who's 1455 01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:50,920 Speaker 1: just probably talked about this, but he's up close and 1456 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:54,080 Speaker 1: personal with Zach Wilson for like the last month. And 1457 01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: I of course, as soon as I see who's in 1458 01:15:55,920 --> 01:15:57,840 Speaker 1: the studio, my God, give me the Zach Wilson latest, 1459 01:15:57,880 --> 01:16:01,719 Speaker 1: you know, and it's all positive. There's some really good 1460 01:16:01,760 --> 01:16:05,000 Speaker 1: stuff about Zach Wilson that I'm I'm hearing it again. 1461 01:16:06,320 --> 01:16:10,360 Speaker 1: You know. I don't want to go overboard gushing because 1462 01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:12,040 Speaker 1: I did that with Sam Donald and it was a wiff. 1463 01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:14,919 Speaker 1: I did that to a lesser extent with Christian Hackenburg 1464 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:17,120 Speaker 1: coming out of Penn State, and that doesn't even qualify 1465 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:20,160 Speaker 1: as a whiff. That's you know, going up swinging at 1466 01:16:20,160 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 1: three pitches way outside of the strike zone and then 1467 01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:25,200 Speaker 1: sit Joe butt down. We'll see you in a month 1468 01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:28,960 Speaker 1: after you return from Triple A. Hackenburgh was, there's a whiff. 1469 01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:35,960 Speaker 1: A lot of it's gonna come down to the coaching. Um, 1470 01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:38,200 Speaker 1: A lot of it's gonna come down to the skill 1471 01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:41,519 Speaker 1: position players. The Jets have had neither for the last 1472 01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:44,320 Speaker 1: couple of years. Where are you out on his size 1473 01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:47,719 Speaker 1: because he's a pretty Yeah, but we're seeing the trend 1474 01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: toward uh, you know, the smaller quarterbacks. Baker Mayfield made 1475 01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 1: the playoffs this year. Uh, he had a very good season. 1476 01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 1: I understanding Kyler Murray that they're comparing him to maybe 1477 01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:01,880 Speaker 1: the second greatest quarterback of all time. So again, what 1478 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,840 Speaker 1: I'm saying is Zach Wilson, is he gonna be the 1479 01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:08,599 Speaker 1: homes I mean, just look at him, like, I just 1480 01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:10,959 Speaker 1: don't know. I think it's some of the twitch ability, 1481 01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:14,880 Speaker 1: the angles from which he can make passes. Um. What 1482 01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 1: about the thing about never being a captain or do 1483 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 1: you worry about Yeah, we might need to say that 1484 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:24,400 Speaker 1: for next hour. That's a brag. I was often captain 1485 01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:26,920 Speaker 1: of some of my youth sports teams because I am 1486 01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:29,839 Speaker 1: like kind of a vocal leader. I know that shocking 1487 01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:31,680 Speaker 1: because I like to talk and hear myself talk all 1488 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:33,519 Speaker 1: the time. But we'll talk about that next hour. That's 1489 01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:35,599 Speaker 1: a good topic. But coming up next year on Fox 1490 01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:40,759 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, Russell Wilson our number three here on Fox 1491 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:45,400 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, Ladies and gentlemen, it's me Jason McIntyre coming 1492 01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:48,960 Speaker 1: to you live from the Farmer's Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studios. 1493 01:17:49,400 --> 01:17:53,439 Speaker 1: Call one at eight Farmers to switch and you could 1494 01:17:53,400 --> 01:17:56,360 Speaker 1: save big on your auto insurance. It's really the best 1495 01:17:56,360 --> 01:17:58,360 Speaker 1: thing that you could do with your phone. In the 1496 01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:01,839 Speaker 1: next few minutes, called a eight Farmers and start saving. 1497 01:18:01,880 --> 01:18:09,719 Speaker 1: Today we are college basketball tipping off around the country 1498 01:18:10,400 --> 01:18:15,920 Speaker 1: and Tennessee and Auburn seems to be quasi marquee game. Now, 1499 01:18:15,960 --> 01:18:18,759 Speaker 1: I will say this, the machine, you guys know college 1500 01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:22,439 Speaker 1: basketball picks. I put them on the Instagram stories. Um. 1501 01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:24,559 Speaker 1: The machine picks came in about twenty minutes ago and 1502 01:18:24,560 --> 01:18:26,920 Speaker 1: I started looking at him like okay, And the first 1503 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:29,599 Speaker 1: pick was Auburn getting seven and a half and I 1504 01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:34,760 Speaker 1: was gonna bet it, and within thirty seconds, Auburn announces 1505 01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:39,120 Speaker 1: its best player, Shariff Cooper, is out today. He's not playing. 1506 01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:40,439 Speaker 1: I don't know why. I don't know if it's an 1507 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:43,000 Speaker 1: injury or what. But Sharief Cooper out. So I'm not 1508 01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:45,640 Speaker 1: gonna bet Auburn. I I didn't bet Auburn. Now I 1509 01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:49,920 Speaker 1: will watch the game flow and U if Auburn happens 1510 01:18:49,960 --> 01:18:51,879 Speaker 1: to take an early lead, then maybe I get Tennessee 1511 01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:53,719 Speaker 1: it's some value at lesser than seven and a half, 1512 01:18:53,760 --> 01:18:58,000 Speaker 1: but no college basketball underway. And I did write a 1513 01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:02,759 Speaker 1: piece for Fox Sports this week about the five best 1514 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 1: value bets in the nca Tournament excluding the undefeated teams 1515 01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:13,680 Speaker 1: Gonzaga and Baylor both undefeated. I was Sam, You're all 1516 01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 1: guys had kind of a rough week. They had. They 1517 01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:20,000 Speaker 1: had an up and down week. Yeah, they had some highs, 1518 01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:23,200 Speaker 1: some lows. Luca Garza became IOWA was all time leading scorer, 1519 01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:27,320 Speaker 1: and then they get smoked by the Michigan Wolverine. Indeed, 1520 01:19:27,360 --> 01:19:30,680 Speaker 1: Michigan looking Michigan. It's Michigan and everyone else in the 1521 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:33,679 Speaker 1: Big ten. So Michigan maybe put him in your final four. 1522 01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 1: They're on that they're on that value list now, I 1523 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 1: think they were plus sixty. Well they also took like 1524 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:41,439 Speaker 1: three weeks off for COVID, right, yeah, that was actually 1525 01:19:41,479 --> 01:19:44,439 Speaker 1: a state issued shutdown. So what do you make of 1526 01:19:44,479 --> 01:19:48,200 Speaker 1: a big kid, the seven footer Hunter Dickinson. Yeah, he 1527 01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:51,920 Speaker 1: guarded Luca guards are very well. Um. He he looks 1528 01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:53,759 Speaker 1: like a very good player. He's already averaging like fifteen 1529 01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:56,120 Speaker 1: a game. So yeah, it's weird because he's not a 1530 01:19:56,200 --> 01:19:58,799 Speaker 1: pro prospect, not much of one. I mean the freshman. 1531 01:19:58,920 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, he's a seven in one. What is two 1532 01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:04,600 Speaker 1: fifty's it's a big guy, big boy. He's like a 1533 01:20:04,680 --> 01:20:09,120 Speaker 1: back to the basket kind of guy. So, uh, we'll see. Yeah, 1534 01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:11,920 Speaker 1: I do like Michigan chances to win. Then I'll put 1535 01:20:11,920 --> 01:20:15,840 Speaker 1: some other picks on on the I g stories later on. 1536 01:20:16,120 --> 01:20:20,960 Speaker 1: I did bet Illinois and uh, I forgot the other one, 1537 01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:23,040 Speaker 1: but it's on there. Anyways, let's go back to the 1538 01:20:23,080 --> 01:20:25,759 Speaker 1: NFL before we get to Russell Wilson. I just quickly 1539 01:20:26,160 --> 01:20:28,919 Speaker 1: Gavin mentioned it. We were talking about the Mormon mahomes 1540 01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:31,920 Speaker 1: Zack Wilson, and Gavin's like, well, what about him not 1541 01:20:31,960 --> 01:20:34,559 Speaker 1: being a captain? And I had heard that and I 1542 01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:36,640 Speaker 1: decided let me look into it a little bit, so 1543 01:20:36,760 --> 01:20:39,360 Speaker 1: b y you as we know, a little strange. Um, 1544 01:20:39,400 --> 01:20:41,720 Speaker 1: they do some things differently. They have captains, but they 1545 01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:45,800 Speaker 1: also have what's called a leadership council. He was on 1546 01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:52,400 Speaker 1: the leadership council, but he wasn't necessarily a captain. I know. 1547 01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:54,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Gavin, this is a weird year with COVID. 1548 01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,320 Speaker 1: I'm just asking you because it's one of those things 1549 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:00,800 Speaker 1: that reminds me a lot of the Justin Herbert thing. Look, 1550 01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:03,320 Speaker 1: I'm a Charger fan. I am the last person that 1551 01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:06,200 Speaker 1: will ever criticize a player coming out of the draft 1552 01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:08,760 Speaker 1: as he's not a leader guy. He's not a you know, 1553 01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:11,160 Speaker 1: raw rod. That was the knock on Herbert. And then 1554 01:21:11,200 --> 01:21:13,679 Speaker 1: look at him on the field. You know what works 1555 01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:18,439 Speaker 1: as leadership your play? You know, I'm just throwing it out. 1556 01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:21,120 Speaker 1: There's a major talking point about Zach Wilson, which is weird. 1557 01:21:21,479 --> 01:21:23,679 Speaker 1: The guy went to by U. You don't usually think 1558 01:21:23,680 --> 01:21:27,880 Speaker 1: of B y U players as problem people, right, um, 1559 01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:30,160 Speaker 1: but no, Zach Wilson definitely has the talent. I just 1560 01:21:30,439 --> 01:21:32,679 Speaker 1: I do look at him a little bit of like 1561 01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:36,720 Speaker 1: not saying he's Johnny Manziel, but he is undersized. He's 1562 01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:39,760 Speaker 1: not not that you can't be Russell Wilson or some 1563 01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:42,320 Speaker 1: of these other guys, but a man, I hate that 1564 01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:46,839 Speaker 1: nickname because again you're comparing him to someone who's probably 1565 01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:49,559 Speaker 1: already a Hall of Famer after just a few years 1566 01:21:49,600 --> 01:21:54,240 Speaker 1: in the It's weird. He you know, wasn't great as 1567 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:57,160 Speaker 1: a freshman, had some injuries as a sophomore, and the 1568 01:21:57,200 --> 01:22:01,280 Speaker 1: injuries always concern you, um, a shoulder and a thumb. 1569 01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:04,000 Speaker 1: But then he had because of the injuries, you know, 1570 01:22:04,040 --> 01:22:07,760 Speaker 1: other quarterbacks like made moves. So he had to win 1571 01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 1: the starting job last last year. He didn't go in like, 1572 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:15,120 Speaker 1: oh it's his. He had to beat out two other guys. 1573 01:22:15,160 --> 01:22:17,280 Speaker 1: He did beat them out, and then, fully healthy, he 1574 01:22:17,320 --> 01:22:22,479 Speaker 1: was supremely dominant and hence the nickname Mormon Mahomes and 1575 01:22:22,520 --> 01:22:25,920 Speaker 1: some of these throws he's making, and I mean, Gavitt, 1576 01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:30,040 Speaker 1: It's funny. This whole NFL draft process starts out as 1577 01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:32,880 Speaker 1: we love everybody, we love everybody, and then you get 1578 01:22:32,920 --> 01:22:35,679 Speaker 1: closer and it's like, okay, how can we pick apart guys? 1579 01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:38,880 Speaker 1: And I think Justin Fields is going to get a big, 1580 01:22:38,920 --> 01:22:41,840 Speaker 1: big treatment of picking apart. Uh. As we get closer 1581 01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:44,160 Speaker 1: to the draft and you don't know how much of 1582 01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:46,840 Speaker 1: it is smoke and mirrors. I mean, it's funny. Russell 1583 01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:49,519 Speaker 1: Wilson huge talking point this week is he gonna get traded. 1584 01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:52,360 Speaker 1: He said he'll go to Chicago or Dallas, and then 1585 01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:55,400 Speaker 1: you know you mentioned, well, yeah, I would take him 1586 01:22:55,400 --> 01:22:59,040 Speaker 1: over Doc boy New Orleans. Oh my gosh, they don't 1587 01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:01,160 Speaker 1: lose a b if they go from Drew Brees to 1588 01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:07,479 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Chicago Defense and Ross. They could like people 1589 01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,479 Speaker 1: start then picking apart Russell Wilson. I mean, which just silly, 1590 01:23:11,320 --> 01:23:14,880 Speaker 1: like this this narrative that like we can just pick 1591 01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:20,439 Speaker 1: apart anybody. You guys do realize anybody can be picked apart. 1592 01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:24,120 Speaker 1: I mean I was on a show where Greg Jennings 1593 01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:26,920 Speaker 1: said this week and hopefully the up on game guys 1594 01:23:26,960 --> 01:23:30,120 Speaker 1: can ask him about it. Oh yeah, teams have solved 1595 01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:33,160 Speaker 1: Mahomes and the Chiefs because of the Super Bowl. I 1596 01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:36,519 Speaker 1: was like, what one freaking game and now all of 1597 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:39,360 Speaker 1: a sudden, people solved the Homes and the Chiefs kind 1598 01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:41,519 Speaker 1: of hurt that he was missing his left tackle and 1599 01:23:41,680 --> 01:23:43,960 Speaker 1: his right tackle in the Super Bowl kind of a 1600 01:23:43,960 --> 01:23:46,680 Speaker 1: big deal. They had done well without the right, but 1601 01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:49,160 Speaker 1: then you tressed in the left and it's like, holy cow. 1602 01:23:49,520 --> 01:23:56,000 Speaker 1: Jack Barrett dominated that game. JPP dominated that game. Patrick 1603 01:23:56,040 --> 01:23:58,720 Speaker 1: Mahomes was running for his life. This idea that we 1604 01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:01,080 Speaker 1: just want to pick people apart. It's it's the typical 1605 01:24:01,160 --> 01:24:04,680 Speaker 1: sports cycle. We build them up, we tear them down. 1606 01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:07,679 Speaker 1: We see it in entertainment to Britney Spears. I haven't 1607 01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:11,000 Speaker 1: seen the documentary, um, but I was working at US 1608 01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:14,120 Speaker 1: Weekly back in the day when Brittany had her meltdown. 1609 01:24:16,600 --> 01:24:21,599 Speaker 1: It was a little bizarre. Once they hit the top, 1610 01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:24,439 Speaker 1: people are always looking at Oh, definitely listen. This is 1611 01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:27,479 Speaker 1: I mean, it's sad, but that's what we do. The 1612 01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:30,519 Speaker 1: build up, you get the clicks, you get the attention to, 1613 01:24:30,520 --> 01:24:32,960 Speaker 1: you get everything. And then the tear down. Same deal. 1614 01:24:33,040 --> 01:24:35,920 Speaker 1: People just can't stop talking about it, and they want 1615 01:24:35,920 --> 01:24:39,960 Speaker 1: to just pile on. Remember Carson Wentz, Kevin was like 1616 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:41,840 Speaker 1: MVP of the league in his second year. This guy's 1617 01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 1: gonna take over. Carson Wentz is now gage. Remember the 1618 01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:48,880 Speaker 1: narrative on him was that the Browns screwed up by 1619 01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:53,000 Speaker 1: taking Baker Mayfield trade. And look at that now now 1620 01:24:53,080 --> 01:24:55,320 Speaker 1: you go, I'd rather have Baker Mayfield at least the 1621 01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:58,600 Speaker 1: starting warning playoff games. This is Sam Donald. The New 1622 01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:01,519 Speaker 1: York media built him up and they haven't totally torn 1623 01:25:01,560 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 1: him down yet. Um. And he's actually going to be 1624 01:25:03,960 --> 01:25:05,439 Speaker 1: one of those where there's going to be a build up, 1625 01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:08,240 Speaker 1: tear down, build up again when he lands in San 1626 01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:13,200 Speaker 1: fran or wherever he lands. Um. Even Ben Roethlisberger. I mean, listen, 1627 01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:17,519 Speaker 1: everybody gets a Tiger Woods big time. I mean, people 1628 01:25:17,560 --> 01:25:20,160 Speaker 1: loved him, loved him, and now Tiger Tiger Woods. I mean, 1629 01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:23,599 Speaker 1: did you see the CNN clip Gavin of the guy saying, well, hey, 1630 01:25:23,640 --> 01:25:25,639 Speaker 1: this is what happens when you're popping pills or pink. 1631 01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:27,559 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if they fired the guy, 1632 01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,920 Speaker 1: but it was like, oh my gosh, and they didn't 1633 01:25:29,920 --> 01:25:32,160 Speaker 1: you The information wasn't even out there. It was like 1634 01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:36,640 Speaker 1: Tiger Woods car accident, broken leg, shattered ankle, blah blah blah. 1635 01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:39,000 Speaker 1: And then this guy just gets out his jumped to 1636 01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:43,800 Speaker 1: conclusions Matt and leaps all the way to well, yeah, 1637 01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:46,800 Speaker 1: pain killers. It's like he couldn't just get it in 1638 01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:49,040 Speaker 1: a car, Yes, thank you. He couldn't just get in 1639 01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:53,080 Speaker 1: a car and flip it. Um. But the tear down 1640 01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:56,960 Speaker 1: man By the way also to others in the fighting world, 1641 01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:03,320 Speaker 1: Rhonda Rousing McGregor man, both of them, they enjoyed the 1642 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:07,120 Speaker 1: height of of the UFC fighter that we've never seen. 1643 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:10,799 Speaker 1: And then the tear down was quick and and listen 1644 01:26:10,920 --> 01:26:14,559 Speaker 1: on some level, like you understand where people are coming from. Man, 1645 01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:17,600 Speaker 1: if I'm gonna, if I'm gonna gush about you and 1646 01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:20,560 Speaker 1: say you're the greatest and blah blah blah blah blah, 1647 01:26:20,600 --> 01:26:22,679 Speaker 1: well then I can also say you stink and you're terrible. 1648 01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:25,240 Speaker 1: It's kind of harsh, which, by the way, is kind 1649 01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:27,920 Speaker 1: of what happens to Lebron where with the political thing, 1650 01:26:28,560 --> 01:26:31,679 Speaker 1: it's like people are grasping at straws to tear at him. 1651 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:35,839 Speaker 1: So if you enter a realm that is not your forte, 1652 01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:40,880 Speaker 1: the political realm is vicious like and you don't and 1653 01:26:40,920 --> 01:26:44,679 Speaker 1: when you don't have all the information because you shouldn't. 1654 01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:47,400 Speaker 1: You are not a politician. That's not your life's work. 1655 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:50,559 Speaker 1: People will definitely look to to find fallacies and what 1656 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:53,240 Speaker 1: you're saying, um not to go to into politics. But 1657 01:26:53,479 --> 01:26:57,040 Speaker 1: the Bill Clinton build up was incredible, and I don't 1658 01:26:57,040 --> 01:27:00,360 Speaker 1: know that they necessarily tore him down, but Hillary has 1659 01:27:00,400 --> 01:27:02,840 Speaker 1: been I mean, I read a story where Hillary has 1660 01:27:02,880 --> 01:27:04,960 Speaker 1: just been I mean basically they've been coming after for 1661 01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:07,760 Speaker 1: like two decades. I don't listen, I'm not going deep 1662 01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:11,519 Speaker 1: into that one. But the venom on the tear down 1663 01:27:11,640 --> 01:27:14,040 Speaker 1: is always stronger because you could just unload, you know, 1664 01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:16,439 Speaker 1: and it's on some level it is kind of messed up. 1665 01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:19,040 Speaker 1: I would like to hear LaVar Arrington's take because remember, 1666 01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:21,479 Speaker 1: coming out of Penn State, I mean, this guy was 1667 01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:24,559 Speaker 1: supposed to be Lawrence Taylor. He admitted that. You know, 1668 01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:26,479 Speaker 1: people were comparing him saying he can have that kind 1669 01:27:26,479 --> 01:27:28,400 Speaker 1: of impact on a game, and he had a good, 1670 01:27:28,520 --> 01:27:31,439 Speaker 1: good NFL career, but then you know, when the injuries start, 1671 01:27:32,040 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 1: they come after him and listen, you've got to be 1672 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:37,439 Speaker 1: mentally strong. And that's why I say you can never 1673 01:27:37,520 --> 01:27:41,160 Speaker 1: get too high and never get too low. You've gotta 1674 01:27:41,240 --> 01:27:45,840 Speaker 1: stay even keel. When people are showering the accolades on 1675 01:27:45,960 --> 01:27:49,000 Speaker 1: you and they're throwing the rose petals at your feet, 1676 01:27:49,479 --> 01:27:53,800 Speaker 1: just keep some perspective that on the way down they're 1677 01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:56,960 Speaker 1: gonna just throw throw feces at you. Like that's how 1678 01:27:57,040 --> 01:27:59,320 Speaker 1: that's how bad it is. People want to pile on 1679 01:27:59,520 --> 01:28:02,760 Speaker 1: and was it nobody really cares. But on my own 1680 01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:06,160 Speaker 1: personal level, I definitely saw it. When I had started 1681 01:28:06,160 --> 01:28:10,679 Speaker 1: the website right, people really liked it, and as soon 1682 01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:14,639 Speaker 1: as I got to FS one, the venom came out. 1683 01:28:14,920 --> 01:28:17,800 Speaker 1: It was like people who had said good things about 1684 01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:19,080 Speaker 1: me in the past, all of a sudden we're like, 1685 01:28:19,080 --> 01:28:21,759 Speaker 1: what this guy's getting a TV, this guy is getting 1686 01:28:21,760 --> 01:28:24,040 Speaker 1: a radio? Oh is this guy? What has this guy done? 1687 01:28:24,760 --> 01:28:26,800 Speaker 1: And then of course, you know, given who I was 1688 01:28:26,840 --> 01:28:30,720 Speaker 1: working with, one of the guys in particular, people just 1689 01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:33,559 Speaker 1: went after him. So I was collateral damage and this 1690 01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:37,040 Speaker 1: is this is what happens. You can never get too excited. 1691 01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:42,040 Speaker 1: You know, Uh, my podcast Straight Fire, Gavin does some 1692 01:28:42,080 --> 01:28:44,160 Speaker 1: stuff on it. Rob You guys know him. Rob g 1693 01:28:44,320 --> 01:28:49,000 Speaker 1: produces um uh the Odd Couple, and you know we 1694 01:28:49,080 --> 01:28:51,960 Speaker 1: are always talking about the numbers. The numbers matter. And 1695 01:28:53,200 --> 01:28:55,760 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, I'm sure Gavin, you know, the the 1696 01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:59,800 Speaker 1: Cam Newton slash Steph Curry topic from this week went 1697 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:03,040 Speaker 1: monster on on downloads. It was like out of the 1698 01:29:03,040 --> 01:29:04,880 Speaker 1: blue that we don't know what did it. And I'm 1699 01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:06,840 Speaker 1: not gonna sit here and be like, people love my 1700 01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:10,200 Speaker 1: Cam Newton take, people love my Curry take? Yes, that 1701 01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:13,000 Speaker 1: is a victory. I matter, like, you can't do that. 1702 01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:17,000 Speaker 1: It was I think one of the biggest podcast we've had, 1703 01:29:17,600 --> 01:29:20,800 Speaker 1: and it's like, I can't go over the moon. That's great, 1704 01:29:21,080 --> 01:29:22,960 Speaker 1: all right, let's see what colonels we could take from 1705 01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:28,559 Speaker 1: that onto the next one. And like I enjoy that 1706 01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:32,360 Speaker 1: mindset of Okay, what's next, what's next? UM. I heard 1707 01:29:32,360 --> 01:29:34,640 Speaker 1: a quote from a guy named Bob Pittman. Some of 1708 01:29:34,680 --> 01:29:37,320 Speaker 1: you may be familiar with him. Uh, I heart radio, 1709 01:29:37,880 --> 01:29:43,200 Speaker 1: UM six Flags Great Adventure, UH started MTV. He said, 1710 01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:47,040 Speaker 1: you know, life is not really about wins and losses. 1711 01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:51,160 Speaker 1: It's stepping stones, you know. Um, you get to a job, 1712 01:29:51,160 --> 01:29:53,400 Speaker 1: you do good, great, don't just sit there and get 1713 01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:55,320 Speaker 1: pat on the back. That's a stepping stone to the 1714 01:29:55,400 --> 01:29:58,080 Speaker 1: next thing. Your next thing stinks, you're awful. Hey, it's 1715 01:29:58,080 --> 01:30:00,559 Speaker 1: a learning experience. You moved to the next one. You 1716 01:30:00,640 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 1: can't get too caught up in anything. And it's really 1717 01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:09,400 Speaker 1: a good life lesson because these days, nobody's staying anywhere 1718 01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:12,400 Speaker 1: in the same job forever, you know. I mean, I 1719 01:30:12,400 --> 01:30:14,160 Speaker 1: don't know about you, Gavin or Sam, but I know 1720 01:30:14,280 --> 01:30:18,960 Speaker 1: my dad got to the government, um when I guess 1721 01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:23,760 Speaker 1: he was maybe forty three or whatever and ended up 1722 01:30:23,800 --> 01:30:27,320 Speaker 1: staying there. Chili retired like twenty five years, and my 1723 01:30:27,400 --> 01:30:29,960 Speaker 1: buddy's dad's same deal. You get a job, you stay 1724 01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:33,160 Speaker 1: there thirty years. That's just not the case anymore. Everything 1725 01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:35,840 Speaker 1: is a stepping stone. You get somewhere and hopefully they 1726 01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:38,080 Speaker 1: treat you with respect and you liked them, and you 1727 01:30:38,160 --> 01:30:41,000 Speaker 1: keep moving up the charts. If not, you gotta go 1728 01:30:41,040 --> 01:30:45,000 Speaker 1: somewhere else. But you know this idea that Russell Wilson 1729 01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:48,799 Speaker 1: should automatically just stay in Seattle forever because they drafted 1730 01:30:48,840 --> 01:30:51,479 Speaker 1: him and he want a Super Bowl and he lost 1731 01:30:51,479 --> 01:30:55,840 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Ah, I don't necessarily think that's the case. 1732 01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:57,720 Speaker 1: And I think some of it comes back to the 1733 01:30:57,760 --> 01:31:01,640 Speaker 1: player empowerment that guys like Lebron and k D and 1734 01:31:01,640 --> 01:31:05,360 Speaker 1: they got the venom for leaving. Lebron, I mean, everybody 1735 01:31:05,439 --> 01:31:07,679 Speaker 1: killed him for coming l A. When's the title. People 1736 01:31:07,760 --> 01:31:11,679 Speaker 1: just massacred Kevin Durant for going to the Warriors. It's 1737 01:31:11,680 --> 01:31:15,439 Speaker 1: two titles, two NBA m vps. Like, I think, you 1738 01:31:15,520 --> 01:31:17,839 Speaker 1: gotta just do what you feel is right. You shouldn't 1739 01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:20,599 Speaker 1: just stay somewhere because they drafted you. If I'm Russell Wilson, 1740 01:31:22,200 --> 01:31:24,040 Speaker 1: I don't know why he's putting Chicago on that list. 1741 01:31:24,320 --> 01:31:26,040 Speaker 1: I don't really see the attraction there. You want to 1742 01:31:26,040 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 1: go in a division with Aaron Rodgers, But imagine Gavin 1743 01:31:29,160 --> 01:31:32,479 Speaker 1: leaving the NFC West, which I think is the best 1744 01:31:32,520 --> 01:31:36,240 Speaker 1: division in the conference. It's stacked, and then you go 1745 01:31:36,360 --> 01:31:39,920 Speaker 1: to the NFC Least, which is a joke where the 1746 01:31:40,160 --> 01:31:43,120 Speaker 1: seven and nine Washington Football Club made the playoffs, and 1747 01:31:43,200 --> 01:31:47,160 Speaker 1: as of now, Washington's going into the post seeds to 1748 01:31:47,240 --> 01:31:52,080 Speaker 1: the season with a quarterback battle between Kyle Allen and 1749 01:31:52,120 --> 01:31:55,920 Speaker 1: Taylor Heineke. If Russell Wilson gets the Cowboys, they're the 1750 01:31:55,960 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 1: favorites in the NFC East. And here's audio from Michael Gelkin. 1751 01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:03,720 Speaker 1: We talked to him last hour about the chances of 1752 01:32:03,840 --> 01:32:06,800 Speaker 1: Russ getting to Dallas. Give me a percentage chance. You 1753 01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:08,599 Speaker 1: think Jerry picks up the phone and makes a good 1754 01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:11,519 Speaker 1: offer less. No, I think it's a it's a it's 1755 01:32:11,560 --> 01:32:14,439 Speaker 1: a fun story. I think it's an Asian driven concoction. 1756 01:32:15,120 --> 01:32:18,360 Speaker 1: The Cowboys have been pretty seats asked about what they 1757 01:32:18,360 --> 01:32:21,639 Speaker 1: think of Dak Prescott. He used their quarterback. They valued 1758 01:32:21,720 --> 01:32:23,719 Speaker 1: him not only as a player, but as a person, 1759 01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:26,759 Speaker 1: as a locker room leader. It's difficult to fully appreciate 1760 01:32:26,760 --> 01:32:28,200 Speaker 1: in terms of who he is as a leader and 1761 01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:31,599 Speaker 1: what he means to the organization, what he represents, and frankly, 1762 01:32:31,640 --> 01:32:34,920 Speaker 1: they need more of that. And so the idea that 1763 01:32:35,040 --> 01:32:39,920 Speaker 1: the Cowboys, while still in negotiations with Dak Prescott here 1764 01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:45,240 Speaker 1: in February, would abandon all of that early negotiations relatively 1765 01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:48,479 Speaker 1: in terms of the two thousand one situation, I think 1766 01:32:48,479 --> 01:32:51,519 Speaker 1: would be it's a total misnomer to represented as something likely, 1767 01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:53,880 Speaker 1: something worth spend a whole lot of attention on. Because 1768 01:32:53,960 --> 01:32:56,559 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's agent mentions the Cowboys doesn't mean that Russell 1769 01:32:56,560 --> 01:33:01,160 Speaker 1: Wilson's for the Cowboys Today. It's fun. This an NFL 1770 01:33:01,320 --> 01:33:04,559 Speaker 1: offseason shaping up to be one of the fun one 1771 01:33:04,560 --> 01:33:08,720 Speaker 1: of the most fun of my lifetime. It is I mean, 1772 01:33:10,040 --> 01:33:14,759 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford franchise quarterback, top fifteen guy, traded Carson Wentz 1773 01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 1: bad year, but you gotta I mean, you got a 1774 01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:22,280 Speaker 1: massive extension traded um. Deshaun Watson will see Russell Wilson 1775 01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:26,320 Speaker 1: will see coming up next year on Fox Sports Radio. 1776 01:33:26,800 --> 01:33:30,599 Speaker 1: We're gonna quickly go to the NBA. We actually haven't 1777 01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:32,200 Speaker 1: done a lot on Lebron is he still the m 1778 01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:35,320 Speaker 1: v P. Are the Lakers find now because they finally 1779 01:33:35,360 --> 01:33:37,519 Speaker 1: want a game? What about the paper clips?

I always say, m 1790 01:34:10,360 --> 01:34:13,400 Speaker 1: I see from z Wagner. Is that Moe Wagner's brother? 1791 01:34:14,200 --> 01:34:19,479 Speaker 1: It is? Oh? Yes, So they got Wagner and the 1792 01:34:19,760 --> 01:34:25,160 Speaker 1: big kid, uh Dickinson. Yeah, and they have this guy Livers. 1793 01:34:25,439 --> 01:34:27,639 Speaker 1: They have a bunch of yea. Their their guards are seniors, 1794 01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:30,240 Speaker 1: are very good with the ball. Their only loss was 1795 01:34:30,240 --> 01:34:32,919 Speaker 1: to Minnesota. I did way too oh nice play by Indiana. 1796 01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:36,840 Speaker 1: I did way too much research. Um, because you know, listen, 1797 01:34:36,840 --> 01:34:39,640 Speaker 1: when I'm betting my money, Uh, I need to do 1798 01:34:39,640 --> 01:34:44,040 Speaker 1: as much research as possible. Um, they were missing one 1799 01:34:44,040 --> 01:34:46,000 Speaker 1: of their two starting guards and their only loss of 1800 01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:49,640 Speaker 1: the season, they got destroyed. Yeah, they got waxed. They 1801 01:34:49,840 --> 01:34:53,080 Speaker 1: that's also it's the barn. It's Minneapolis is a tough 1802 01:34:53,280 --> 01:34:56,160 Speaker 1: but they already beat Minnesota by like twenty so you know, 1803 01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:57,920 Speaker 1: it was kind of an office. I think the guard 1804 01:34:57,920 --> 01:35:00,960 Speaker 1: they were missing was her best defender. UM. Interesting Auburn 1805 01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:05,520 Speaker 1: without Shariff Cooper currently leading Tennessee. So going the opposite 1806 01:35:05,520 --> 01:35:08,519 Speaker 1: of what I thought. Now there is I don't know 1807 01:35:08,560 --> 01:35:11,880 Speaker 1: what it's called, but this idea that when the opponent's 1808 01:35:11,960 --> 01:35:16,800 Speaker 1: best players out, everybody on the other teams like, oh great, 1809 01:35:16,800 --> 01:35:18,880 Speaker 1: we don't have to face that guy. They not let 1810 01:35:18,880 --> 01:35:20,800 Speaker 1: down their guard, but they don't play to the level 1811 01:35:21,160 --> 01:35:23,080 Speaker 1: you see a lot in the NFL when X players 1812 01:35:23,160 --> 01:35:25,320 Speaker 1: ruled out. You're like, oh, that's huge, that's a game changer. 1813 01:35:26,120 --> 01:35:28,080 Speaker 1: And then in the game it doesn't really matter unless 1814 01:35:28,120 --> 01:35:30,160 Speaker 1: it's one of the like a left tackle or an 1815 01:35:30,240 --> 01:35:34,880 Speaker 1: edge rusher. UM. But I do wonder if there there 1816 01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:37,360 Speaker 1: was some of that with Michigan, because if that's the case, 1817 01:35:37,400 --> 01:35:41,719 Speaker 1: I was sam, then they're basically an undefeated team. Yeah, 1818 01:35:41,800 --> 01:35:46,240 Speaker 1: and they're there. They are a few games behind schedule 1819 01:35:46,280 --> 01:35:48,800 Speaker 1: because of that's shutdown, and so you know, if they 1820 01:35:48,840 --> 01:35:52,000 Speaker 1: had played their full schedule, I mean, they're they're one 1821 01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:54,639 Speaker 1: of the best teams. I wonder, how the hell there's 1822 01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:58,719 Speaker 1: never been this many undefeated teams late in the season 1823 01:35:58,720 --> 01:36:01,479 Speaker 1: in college basketball, at least to my knowledge. There's maybe 1824 01:36:01,560 --> 01:36:05,639 Speaker 1: usually like a Wichita State, um St. Joe's with Jamir 1825 01:36:05,720 --> 01:36:10,040 Speaker 1: Nelson and Delante West. We have two, I mean maybe three. 1826 01:36:10,320 --> 01:36:13,200 Speaker 1: There's like a maybe still a mid major I can't 1827 01:36:13,200 --> 01:36:16,639 Speaker 1: remember really, like it was some tea. Yeah they listened 1828 01:36:16,680 --> 01:36:18,719 Speaker 1: him off a few weeks ago, but it's Baylor, Gonzaga. 1829 01:36:18,760 --> 01:36:20,599 Speaker 1: And there may be a mid major that's undefeated right now, 1830 01:36:20,720 --> 01:36:23,360 Speaker 1: there's only two or three. Shout out to my JM. 1831 01:36:23,439 --> 01:36:26,320 Speaker 1: You Dukes who are playing some of their best ball. 1832 01:36:26,320 --> 01:36:28,599 Speaker 1: They've got a shot at the n c A Tournament. Um, 1833 01:36:28,640 --> 01:36:32,679 Speaker 1: they've had one trip in the last twenty five years. 1834 01:36:33,360 --> 01:36:37,519 Speaker 1: And um, before I got there, JM, you got to 1835 01:36:37,520 --> 01:36:41,080 Speaker 1: the tournament, they had a guy. Um his name was 1836 01:36:41,160 --> 01:36:47,080 Speaker 1: Kent Coluco, like a New Jersey undersized white guard who 1837 01:36:47,160 --> 01:36:49,560 Speaker 1: was just a incredible shooter, like six four, and he 1838 01:36:49,640 --> 01:36:51,200 Speaker 1: made a shot at the Buzzer to send them to 1839 01:36:51,200 --> 01:36:54,080 Speaker 1: the tournament. And of course that guy's a legend. Was 1840 01:36:54,120 --> 01:36:58,559 Speaker 1: his sister ended up coming to JMU. She also a legend. 1841 01:36:58,720 --> 01:37:02,040 Speaker 1: Not for sports though, Let's just say she was pretty 1842 01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:06,120 Speaker 1: memorable at any rate. Zaga and Baylor are your two 1843 01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:10,439 Speaker 1: teams that are under UM Texas Texas Tech is happening 1844 01:37:10,520 --> 01:37:13,000 Speaker 1: right now. You know, it's weird. Are there fans at 1845 01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:14,960 Speaker 1: some of these games? It looks like it. I can't 1846 01:37:14,960 --> 01:37:17,479 Speaker 1: really tell because of the cardboard cutouts in the stands. 1847 01:37:17,479 --> 01:37:20,040 Speaker 1: You know, it's just weird. It looks like there are. 1848 01:37:20,120 --> 01:37:23,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you see plenty of stuff on social media 1849 01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:26,240 Speaker 1: about people being at games, especially NBA games. What about 1850 01:37:26,280 --> 01:37:29,840 Speaker 1: the NBA, there's plenty of game I know people that 1851 01:37:29,880 --> 01:37:32,519 Speaker 1: have been to games really yeah in Houston. Yeah, So 1852 01:37:32,560 --> 01:37:35,200 Speaker 1: what do what do they say? Are there are people 1853 01:37:35,200 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 1: wearing masks? Do they have temperature checks? Yea, And there's 1854 01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:40,040 Speaker 1: there's temperature checks in some cases. I think there's even 1855 01:37:40,040 --> 01:37:44,400 Speaker 1: COVID tests. UM. I think Isaac might have something on that. 1856 01:37:44,520 --> 01:37:47,439 Speaker 1: We actually have audio from a fan who attended a 1857 01:37:47,520 --> 01:37:51,559 Speaker 1: recent NBA game. Jason, I don't have Initially with Lebron, 1858 01:37:51,600 --> 01:37:55,640 Speaker 1: I don't give Lebron anyway, NBA fan of the year, right, 1859 01:37:55,680 --> 01:38:00,760 Speaker 1: there was always throwing some shade at Lebron's yea, oh 1860 01:38:00,840 --> 01:38:03,840 Speaker 1: is that that? That's that cougar from Atlanta courtside Karen. 1861 01:38:04,280 --> 01:38:05,920 Speaker 1: I actually don't think she was at old. I know 1862 01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:09,120 Speaker 1: that's the funny thing. She looks like a cougar with 1863 01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:12,840 Speaker 1: the guy she's with us like six years. Yeah. Um, 1864 01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:15,479 Speaker 1: that's a good, good call, Isaac, nicely done. You know 1865 01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:20,120 Speaker 1: somebody keeps mentioning you on social media, Ralphie boy I get. 1866 01:38:20,160 --> 01:38:23,080 Speaker 1: I assume that's Ralph Irvan right. No, it's a different, 1867 01:38:23,920 --> 01:38:29,639 Speaker 1: very very appreciative controversy. There is some controversy to figure 1868 01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:32,719 Speaker 1: out who that person is. Kevin Durant Burner, no doubt 1869 01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:41,280 Speaker 1: you guys just blew up a spot. Um bro speaking 1870 01:38:41,320 --> 01:38:44,519 Speaker 1: of Lebron. Um, who's your m VP leader right now? 1871 01:38:44,760 --> 01:38:47,280 Speaker 1: Gavin in the NBA, I know it's February there still 1872 01:38:47,280 --> 01:38:51,639 Speaker 1: like for maybe like thirty seven thirty five games left. 1873 01:38:53,080 --> 01:38:55,160 Speaker 1: I saw disputed this week, so I know how this 1874 01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:58,120 Speaker 1: is going to go down for you. But Joel and 1875 01:39:00,120 --> 01:39:03,880 Speaker 1: right now asked me last week it would have been Lebron, 1876 01:39:04,640 --> 01:39:06,559 Speaker 1: and the week before that it might have been Damian Lillard, 1877 01:39:06,840 --> 01:39:09,080 Speaker 1: and the week before that it might have been one person. 1878 01:39:09,160 --> 01:39:13,599 Speaker 1: It will not be this year. Let me ask you this, 1879 01:39:13,720 --> 01:39:16,040 Speaker 1: is there a dark horse chance that James Harden steals 1880 01:39:16,040 --> 01:39:19,400 Speaker 1: the MVP? Yeah, I do. I would have him almost 1881 01:39:19,439 --> 01:39:21,880 Speaker 1: third right now. Then, now he's only played a handful 1882 01:39:21,880 --> 01:39:23,880 Speaker 1: of games in Brooklyn, but the Nets are half a 1883 01:39:23,920 --> 01:39:27,679 Speaker 1: game behind the Sixers, and again looking to the future, 1884 01:39:27,760 --> 01:39:32,559 Speaker 1: trying to project it is a fool's Errand however, Brooklyn 1885 01:39:32,600 --> 01:39:35,080 Speaker 1: Nets have seven back to backs in the second half 1886 01:39:35,080 --> 01:39:37,960 Speaker 1: of the season. We know Embids already missed six games, 1887 01:39:38,320 --> 01:39:41,960 Speaker 1: He's gonna miss more. They're not going to get the 1888 01:39:42,040 --> 01:39:45,160 Speaker 1: number one. Sixers are not. Brooklyn will get it unless, 1889 01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:48,840 Speaker 1: like every unless the big threes all are injured. Um 1890 01:39:48,880 --> 01:39:51,360 Speaker 1: So now you're looking at Brooklyn. Brooklyn is gonna have 1891 01:39:51,880 --> 01:39:53,400 Speaker 1: the best record in the East. They will not have 1892 01:39:53,439 --> 01:39:55,800 Speaker 1: the league's best record. That will belong to Utah, which 1893 01:39:55,840 --> 01:39:58,479 Speaker 1: is just mostly murdering teams right now, I mean, they're 1894 01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:02,439 Speaker 1: built for the regular season, and if the Nets have 1895 01:40:02,479 --> 01:40:05,839 Speaker 1: the best record in the East, if James Harden continues 1896 01:40:05,880 --> 01:40:09,800 Speaker 1: to put up these monster numbers, I think he could 1897 01:40:09,840 --> 01:40:12,240 Speaker 1: sneak in. Now it's gonna he's gonna need help and 1898 01:40:12,280 --> 01:40:13,840 Speaker 1: be he's gonna have to miss, you know, a bunch 1899 01:40:13,840 --> 01:40:16,040 Speaker 1: of games and Lebron and the Lakers are gonna have 1900 01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:17,840 Speaker 1: to slide a little bit and Harden could steal it. 1901 01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:20,720 Speaker 1: And and I just want to put this out there 1902 01:40:20,720 --> 01:40:24,559 Speaker 1: before we go to break. I mentioned life is not 1903 01:40:24,600 --> 01:40:29,360 Speaker 1: about success or failure, but it's stepping stones. And the 1904 01:40:29,439 --> 01:40:33,840 Speaker 1: reality is James Harden looked like a jerk at the 1905 01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:36,479 Speaker 1: end of his Houston tenure. That's a reality. But he 1906 01:40:36,680 --> 01:40:39,120 Speaker 1: needed to do that to get the hell out of Dodge. 1907 01:40:40,560 --> 01:40:43,680 Speaker 1: He needed to And now look at the situation he's in. 1908 01:40:44,479 --> 01:40:47,200 Speaker 1: The kid Um who was part of the Harden trade, 1909 01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:49,280 Speaker 1: Christian Would, Oh no, no, they got him in free agency. 1910 01:40:49,280 --> 01:40:52,320 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Christian Would is now hurt. The Rockets have 1911 01:40:52,400 --> 01:40:54,519 Speaker 1: lost like nine of eleven or something. They're one of 1912 01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:57,599 Speaker 1: the worst teams in the West. Harden is now one 1913 01:40:57,600 --> 01:40:59,600 Speaker 1: of the best teams in the East with k D. 1914 01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:04,080 Speaker 1: Things are working out with Kyrie. Like it had to happen. 1915 01:41:04,160 --> 01:41:06,760 Speaker 1: Harden had to leave. It had to be ugly, and 1916 01:41:06,800 --> 01:41:10,240 Speaker 1: now he's thriving. So like I don't know, it was 1917 01:41:10,280 --> 01:41:12,719 Speaker 1: clearly held against Harden when it came to All Star voting, 1918 01:41:13,160 --> 01:41:15,720 Speaker 1: and I do wonder if some of these high and 1919 01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:19,880 Speaker 1: mighty media members of the NBA, Gavin knows they're all very, very, 1920 01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:22,839 Speaker 1: very left leaning, are they going to hold it against 1921 01:41:22,840 --> 01:41:26,400 Speaker 1: Harden that he forced his way out of Houston and 1922 01:41:26,439 --> 01:41:28,280 Speaker 1: refused to vote for him for m v P. I 1923 01:41:28,320 --> 01:41:30,439 Speaker 1: do wonder if that will come up because the media 1924 01:41:30,560 --> 01:41:32,320 Speaker 1: votes for it, you know that, and they do love 1925 01:41:32,400 --> 01:41:37,400 Speaker 1: narratives to the media always finds a narrative to run with. Yeah, um, 1926 01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:39,679 Speaker 1: I I disagree with one thing he said. You said 1927 01:41:39,680 --> 01:41:41,960 Speaker 1: it had to be ugly with Harden, I don't think so. 1928 01:41:42,800 --> 01:41:45,519 Speaker 1: He needed to force his way out, and that is 1929 01:41:45,800 --> 01:41:48,719 Speaker 1: really opening a dialogue with with the front office of Hey, 1930 01:41:48,840 --> 01:41:51,120 Speaker 1: I want out. This is what I've now. He can 1931 01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:53,520 Speaker 1: be wrong on that, and we know that that franchise 1932 01:41:53,600 --> 01:41:56,559 Speaker 1: bent over backwards for years. They did whatever he wanted 1933 01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:59,280 Speaker 1: to keep him there, um, and he screwed them over. 1934 01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:02,559 Speaker 1: But he did have to be breaking COVID protocols, going 1935 01:42:02,600 --> 01:42:05,560 Speaker 1: to strip clubs, doing all the ridiculous things he was 1936 01:42:05,600 --> 01:42:08,400 Speaker 1: supporting a friend, Gavin, That's what I tried to tell 1937 01:42:08,439 --> 01:42:10,040 Speaker 1: my wife last time I went to a strip club. 1938 01:42:10,400 --> 01:42:12,479 Speaker 1: I'm supporting my friend. It was a big night for her. 1939 01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:16,920 Speaker 1: I needed to be there for I do not have 1940 01:42:17,040 --> 01:42:20,280 Speaker 1: any strip of friends. I have not a little while. 1941 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:22,920 Speaker 1: Um at any rate, let me get all the topic 1942 01:42:22,960 --> 01:42:25,160 Speaker 1: before I get in some trouble. So my plan for 1943 01:42:25,160 --> 01:42:28,679 Speaker 1: the afternoon is to get on top shot um. Although 1944 01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:31,519 Speaker 1: I guess talking about her on air somebody um was 1945 01:42:31,560 --> 01:42:33,880 Speaker 1: listening Who's a friend and texted like, oh, you don't 1946 01:42:33,880 --> 01:42:35,479 Speaker 1: even need to get on today. They don't give out 1947 01:42:35,479 --> 01:42:38,320 Speaker 1: good packs on Saturday, Like, well, what are we doing here, Gavin? 1948 01:42:38,320 --> 01:42:40,240 Speaker 1: Come on? This sounds it just seems like a bunch 1949 01:42:40,280 --> 01:42:45,160 Speaker 1: of yeah malarkey? Can I say that? Um, I wanted 1950 01:42:45,200 --> 01:42:48,759 Speaker 1: to end game bet on Tennessee here they're down against Auburn. 1951 01:42:48,960 --> 01:42:51,759 Speaker 1: I wanted to end game bet on Michigan. But um, 1952 01:42:51,840 --> 01:42:54,200 Speaker 1: let's just say. I have multiple websites I gamble through, 1953 01:42:54,439 --> 01:42:56,920 Speaker 1: and um, all of them seem very slow today. I 1954 01:42:56,920 --> 01:42:59,840 Speaker 1: guess there's not a lot going on in America, so 1955 01:42:59,880 --> 01:43:02,640 Speaker 1: iybody wants to gamble, which is smart. Hey I just 1956 01:43:02,680 --> 01:43:06,040 Speaker 1: saw this, Um, Gavin, it's not on the books. You 1957 01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:09,760 Speaker 1: have no idea what I'm about to say. But Jeremy 1958 01:43:09,960 --> 01:43:14,760 Speaker 1: Lynn is now claiming he was called coronavirus during a 1959 01:43:14,800 --> 01:43:19,360 Speaker 1: G League game. What I saw that headline? Now, it 1960 01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:22,479 Speaker 1: was just old. No, I mean it's very new. I 1961 01:43:22,560 --> 01:43:25,719 Speaker 1: know that G League is investigating it. So Jeremy Lynn's 1962 01:43:25,760 --> 01:43:28,320 Speaker 1: playing in the g leaue Jeremy Lynn, of course, Lyn 1963 01:43:28,479 --> 01:43:31,320 Speaker 1: sanity in New York. Um back in the day before 1964 01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:33,880 Speaker 1: Carmelo Anthony was like, I've had enough of this and 1965 01:43:34,000 --> 01:43:37,200 Speaker 1: got him shipped out of town. So he's not going 1966 01:43:37,280 --> 01:43:40,639 Speaker 1: to name the player. He's not into naming or shaming. 1967 01:43:40,960 --> 01:43:46,240 Speaker 1: But someone called him coronavirus because he's Asian, and um, 1968 01:43:46,280 --> 01:43:49,320 Speaker 1: a lot of people think, I do think that's admirable 1969 01:43:49,400 --> 01:43:53,240 Speaker 1: of him. You think I bring it up, Well, I 1970 01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:56,040 Speaker 1: don't know what situation where it came up. I don't 1971 01:43:56,080 --> 01:44:00,760 Speaker 1: know how that happened. He apparently said it on a podcast. 1972 01:44:00,800 --> 01:44:03,960 Speaker 1: I guess, Oh no, I'm sorry. In a Facebook post 1973 01:44:04,360 --> 01:44:08,760 Speaker 1: on Thursday, Jeremy Lynn mentioned, you know, somebody called him coronavirus. 1974 01:44:08,760 --> 01:44:11,879 Speaker 1: On All I'm saying is, I think in the culture 1975 01:44:11,920 --> 01:44:14,760 Speaker 1: we're in right now where if you name someone, that 1976 01:44:14,840 --> 01:44:17,400 Speaker 1: person is getting docks or death threats and all these, 1977 01:44:17,439 --> 01:44:19,559 Speaker 1: you know, maybe it is a good thing not to 1978 01:44:20,200 --> 01:44:23,519 Speaker 1: isolate the person. But that's a good point. Yeah, this 1979 01:44:23,520 --> 01:44:28,240 Speaker 1: this whole culture we have now of Um, no one's 1980 01:44:28,280 --> 01:44:31,400 Speaker 1: allowed to do anything wrong, like you know, the the 1981 01:44:31,479 --> 01:44:34,080 Speaker 1: utmost extreme will come for you. And now the counter 1982 01:44:34,160 --> 01:44:35,519 Speaker 1: to that, of course, Gavin is well, what do you 1983 01:44:35,560 --> 01:44:36,960 Speaker 1: want to do wrong? You want to say something, go 1984 01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:40,120 Speaker 1: ahead say it. Look if you if you talked to 1985 01:44:40,200 --> 01:44:42,120 Speaker 1: Ben Wallace, I'm sure a lot of guys, you know, 1986 01:44:42,200 --> 01:44:44,080 Speaker 1: back in the day, we're saying a lot of things 1987 01:44:44,120 --> 01:44:48,120 Speaker 1: that that I'm just saying, like trash talk does cross 1988 01:44:48,160 --> 01:44:51,280 Speaker 1: the line. Yeah, I mean the Cam Newton video for 1989 01:44:51,400 --> 01:44:54,080 Speaker 1: Sheed Wallace. I'm sorry. Ben wall is a great defender though, Yeah, 1990 01:44:54,080 --> 01:44:59,240 Speaker 1: I'm sorry half ju the Cam Newton video. We didn't 1991 01:44:59,240 --> 01:45:03,440 Speaker 1: get a chance to really dive into it here. Um 1992 01:45:03,479 --> 01:45:08,120 Speaker 1: that young punk pop it off. Um, And you know, 1993 01:45:08,240 --> 01:45:10,679 Speaker 1: just telling Cam Newton you're a free agent, you wash, 1994 01:45:10,840 --> 01:45:14,840 Speaker 1: nobody wants you, blah blah blah. That was troubling to me. 1995 01:45:14,920 --> 01:45:18,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, yeah, And that's that's I think 1996 01:45:18,479 --> 01:45:21,840 Speaker 1: stems from social media nowadays, what kids do for cloud 1997 01:45:21,960 --> 01:45:25,280 Speaker 1: to to to make themselves get a name, and they 1998 01:45:25,280 --> 01:45:29,120 Speaker 1: can try to take advantage of you know, like the 1999 01:45:29,160 --> 01:45:31,400 Speaker 1: fact that a former m V p a guy that 2000 01:45:31,439 --> 01:45:33,280 Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl? Is that your camp and 2001 01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:35,559 Speaker 1: you're not just learning from him, you're taking time to 2002 01:45:35,600 --> 01:45:39,960 Speaker 1: trash him like insanity. But you know it's weird. LaVar 2003 01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:42,960 Speaker 1: Arrington again from Undisputed, he's up next here on up 2004 01:45:42,960 --> 01:45:46,960 Speaker 1: on Game they got loew Wayne coming up, um LaVar 2005 01:45:47,680 --> 01:45:50,240 Speaker 1: and Greg Jennings. Yes, LaVar Arrington tried to make the 2006 01:45:50,280 --> 01:45:52,960 Speaker 1: case that that's the culture in seven on seven. It's 2007 01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:57,160 Speaker 1: just trash talk. People just pop off to everybody. And 2008 01:45:57,280 --> 01:45:59,960 Speaker 1: and I was gonna say, okay, so Tom Brady show 2009 01:46:00,080 --> 01:46:01,880 Speaker 1: up at a seven on seven, do you think he's 2010 01:46:01,880 --> 01:46:04,559 Speaker 1: getting this treatment? Are people saying this about Tom? Or 2011 01:46:04,600 --> 01:46:06,680 Speaker 1: well he wanted super Bowl? If Pat Mahomes shows up, 2012 01:46:06,680 --> 01:46:08,559 Speaker 1: are they saying, Oh, you got crushed in the super Bowl? 2013 01:46:08,600 --> 01:46:11,160 Speaker 1: You suck, You're nothing? Is that the culture? Is that 2014 01:46:11,200 --> 01:46:13,439 Speaker 1: a culture that to be proud of? And I didn't 2015 01:46:13,439 --> 01:46:15,439 Speaker 1: want to go after Lamar tr but you know, maybe 2016 01:46:15,479 --> 01:46:17,800 Speaker 1: he could talk about it more like that's not right. 2017 01:46:18,040 --> 01:46:20,439 Speaker 1: That maybe the culture, but that's not right. And it's 2018 01:46:20,479 --> 01:46:22,479 Speaker 1: on LaVar and some of these other guys to change 2019 01:46:22,479 --> 01:46:25,400 Speaker 1: that crap because that is not getting these kids anywhere. 2020 01:46:26,000 --> 01:46:28,280 Speaker 1: And you know, I told you. I think I told 2021 01:46:28,280 --> 01:46:32,559 Speaker 1: the story on my podcast Straight Fire. Like me and 2022 01:46:32,640 --> 01:46:34,479 Speaker 1: some I used to have some best friends in the 2023 01:46:34,680 --> 01:46:37,080 Speaker 1: middle elementary school and I kind of pulled away from 2024 01:46:37,080 --> 01:46:39,120 Speaker 1: them when I went to middle school got some new friends, 2025 01:46:39,760 --> 01:46:41,840 Speaker 1: and my old friends and I were like kind of 2026 01:46:41,880 --> 01:46:44,160 Speaker 1: butting heads or whatever. So one night I had to 2027 01:46:44,160 --> 01:46:46,519 Speaker 1: sleep over with my buddies and we stuck out of 2028 01:46:46,520 --> 01:46:49,080 Speaker 1: the house and tepeed and egged my old friend's house. 2029 01:46:49,680 --> 01:46:52,120 Speaker 1: That's not cool, right, but we did it. You know, 2030 01:46:52,320 --> 01:46:55,320 Speaker 1: kids do we punks? And of course, like you know, 2031 01:46:55,800 --> 01:46:58,200 Speaker 1: I guess one of the idiot friends of mine, like 2032 01:46:58,320 --> 01:47:00,360 Speaker 1: was bragging about it, and it got back to the 2033 01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:02,559 Speaker 1: kid and his mom called my mom. It was like, 2034 01:47:02,600 --> 01:47:05,200 Speaker 1: your son tp to egg my house? What the bleep? 2035 01:47:06,240 --> 01:47:08,840 Speaker 1: And my parents brought me to their front door and 2036 01:47:08,840 --> 01:47:14,840 Speaker 1: I had to apologize, and I got a ton of trouble. Um. 2037 01:47:14,880 --> 01:47:18,280 Speaker 1: I don't know that that exists now. Like nobody's being 2038 01:47:18,320 --> 01:47:20,919 Speaker 1: held accountable. We know it online. Nobody's being held accountable 2039 01:47:20,960 --> 01:47:24,439 Speaker 1: for anything. It's a parent's job to really step in 2040 01:47:25,000 --> 01:47:29,479 Speaker 1: and say that ain't right. And yeah, well I do 2041 01:47:29,560 --> 01:47:32,960 Speaker 1: think that kid came out and apology apologized. I mean, 2042 01:47:34,080 --> 01:47:36,320 Speaker 1: kids are going to be kids. Right. The problem is 2043 01:47:36,360 --> 01:47:41,320 Speaker 1: that we have a culture now that kind of rewards them. Right, 2044 01:47:41,479 --> 01:47:43,960 Speaker 1: remember that Jake Paul, Logan Paul stuff a lot of 2045 01:47:44,000 --> 01:47:50,080 Speaker 1: what they've done to become So hold on, hold on there, 2046 01:47:51,240 --> 01:47:55,040 Speaker 1: Jake Paul and Logan Paul. Are they two different? I 2047 01:47:55,080 --> 01:47:57,680 Speaker 1: know one of them fought Nate Robinson. Yeah, well that's 2048 01:47:57,720 --> 01:48:00,160 Speaker 1: what they're doing now. But in the past, what they 2049 01:48:00,160 --> 01:48:02,599 Speaker 1: were doing was a lot of YouTube videos and they 2050 01:48:02,600 --> 01:48:07,040 Speaker 1: were awarded for like just whatever. Remember Ashton Carlture back 2051 01:48:07,080 --> 01:48:09,639 Speaker 1: in the day had punked. Now that is a pretty 2052 01:48:09,720 --> 01:48:12,400 Speaker 1: tame version of what we're talking about. Yeah, that was 2053 01:48:12,439 --> 01:48:16,240 Speaker 1: all for fun. Came out, cranks, jackass. You know, that 2054 01:48:16,320 --> 01:48:19,280 Speaker 1: was hurt people. This is next level. This is like 2055 01:48:19,880 --> 01:48:22,400 Speaker 1: um doing things for cloud, you know. And that's sad. 2056 01:48:23,240 --> 01:48:25,559 Speaker 1: And I made a point to show my kids video 2057 01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:27,800 Speaker 1: and I say, I'm just telling you right now, if 2058 01:48:28,120 --> 01:48:31,760 Speaker 1: you guys do any crap like this, you're in deep 2059 01:48:31,800 --> 01:48:34,120 Speaker 1: deep you know that's not gonna fly. That. Like, I 2060 01:48:34,120 --> 01:48:36,040 Speaker 1: don't want to raise my kids with that. I don't 2061 01:48:36,080 --> 01:48:39,719 Speaker 1: care if that's the culture. Gavin exactly, And and listen, 2062 01:48:40,120 --> 01:48:43,240 Speaker 1: I would almost say you need to say to LaVar, like, hey, man, 2063 01:48:44,280 --> 01:48:46,400 Speaker 1: Jason was going hard at you, saying that it doesn't 2064 01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:48,479 Speaker 1: matter that that's the culture, Like that's not that doesn't 2065 01:48:48,479 --> 01:48:51,120 Speaker 1: make it That doesn't make it right. If something is 2066 01:48:51,200 --> 01:48:53,960 Speaker 1: homophobic or racist or sexist, it doesn't make it right 2067 01:48:54,160 --> 01:48:56,679 Speaker 1: because that's the culture. Yeah, I don't, and I'm sure 2068 01:48:56,680 --> 01:48:58,600 Speaker 1: there's a lot of young people being like Jason just 2069 01:48:58,840 --> 01:49:02,280 Speaker 1: all funny duddy man. Okay, fine, but on some level, 2070 01:49:02,360 --> 01:49:05,720 Speaker 1: like the way you're raised, like Gavin's parents raised him 2071 01:49:05,760 --> 01:49:08,840 Speaker 1: a certain way, Iowa, Sam's parents raised him. My parents 2072 01:49:08,880 --> 01:49:14,000 Speaker 1: raised me like that stuff. Over years, you become an 2073 01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:16,240 Speaker 1: adult and you grow up and if your parents aren't 2074 01:49:16,280 --> 01:49:18,400 Speaker 1: locking you down and saying that ain't cool, and you 2075 01:49:18,479 --> 01:49:20,160 Speaker 1: keep that up, keep that up, like what are you 2076 01:49:20,200 --> 01:49:22,120 Speaker 1: going to be at thirty five or forty? I think 2077 01:49:22,120 --> 01:49:24,639 Speaker 1: that young man has learned his his lessons. We're talking 2078 01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:27,360 Speaker 1: about a week later he's I'm sure, Yes, I'm sure 2079 01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:30,519 Speaker 1: he has. Because there's also something we've forgotten as a society, 2080 01:49:30,520 --> 01:49:35,360 Speaker 1: and that's mercy and forgiveness. We remember, but I mean 2081 01:49:35,360 --> 01:49:39,720 Speaker 1: not only we need as a culture society, we have 2082 01:49:39,800 --> 01:49:42,880 Speaker 1: to just forgive people and have a little mercy, you know, 2083 01:49:43,120 --> 01:49:45,200 Speaker 1: because it's brutal. This is a teenager. He's screwed up. 2084 01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:46,920 Speaker 1: He should not have a cruise. It's like the guy 2085 01:49:47,240 --> 01:49:50,120 Speaker 1: who was the kid, Dante difen Genzo from Villanova. Remember, 2086 01:49:50,200 --> 01:49:52,559 Speaker 1: like he's scoring thirty points in the National Title game 2087 01:49:52,720 --> 01:49:57,799 Speaker 1: and somebody dug up some old tweeks Josh Allen, Josh 2088 01:49:57,840 --> 01:50:01,519 Speaker 1: Hayter the All Star Game, he had a picture. Yeah, 2089 01:50:01,840 --> 01:50:04,400 Speaker 1: that does an excuse. You know, they're ignorant words of 2090 01:50:04,400 --> 01:50:06,880 Speaker 1: the past. But you were a kid. Sure your brain 2091 01:50:06,920 --> 01:50:09,160 Speaker 1: is still developing. I'm sure that that young man. Listen, 2092 01:50:09,200 --> 01:50:12,040 Speaker 1: let's leave the killed. My point wasn't I didn't want 2093 01:50:12,080 --> 01:50:14,000 Speaker 1: to hope it didn't come across killing the kid. I 2094 01:50:14,040 --> 01:50:17,040 Speaker 1: was more focused on the culture at large that I 2095 01:50:17,080 --> 01:50:19,519 Speaker 1: just don't think that stuff is acceptable, you know, I don't. 2096 01:50:19,560 --> 01:50:21,920 Speaker 1: I don't think it's good. The main thing, though, two, 2097 01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:24,240 Speaker 1: is like you can't hold people to a standard of 2098 01:50:24,479 --> 01:50:27,439 Speaker 1: like what you did when you were thirteen. And it's 2099 01:50:27,479 --> 01:50:30,479 Speaker 1: the same thing with the historical stuff of their trying 2100 01:50:30,520 --> 01:50:33,599 Speaker 1: to hold Thomas Jefferson and George Washington to today's standards. 2101 01:50:33,640 --> 01:50:36,320 Speaker 1: Did I see something about an Abraham Lincoln they were 2102 01:50:37,160 --> 01:50:39,120 Speaker 1: I don't. I had to stop looking at the headline 2103 01:50:39,120 --> 01:50:41,200 Speaker 1: and read half of it and I would like remove 2104 01:50:41,280 --> 01:50:43,840 Speaker 1: Abraham Lincoln something, And I was like, are you what 2105 01:50:43,880 --> 01:50:45,720 Speaker 1: are we doing that? I'm not clicking is I'm not 2106 01:50:45,760 --> 01:50:48,360 Speaker 1: even reading it? What was it? By the way, I 2107 01:50:48,600 --> 01:50:50,840 Speaker 1: don't want to get into that, but it's just you 2108 01:50:50,920 --> 01:50:55,400 Speaker 1: cannot hold people in the past two standards of today 2109 01:50:55,439 --> 01:50:58,720 Speaker 1: because the values have changed. Okay, we've grown as a country. Yeah, 2110 01:50:59,280 --> 01:51:01,720 Speaker 1: And it's the same same thing with a thirteen year 2111 01:51:01,760 --> 01:51:05,040 Speaker 1: old on the sideline yelling at cam Newton when he's 2112 01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:07,400 Speaker 1: twenty one. He should be able to get a job 2113 01:51:07,439 --> 01:51:11,160 Speaker 1: out of college, not you know, he shouldn't be canceled 2114 01:51:11,240 --> 01:51:14,040 Speaker 1: because of what he did in a viral video seven 2115 01:51:14,120 --> 01:51:16,120 Speaker 1: years ago.

No, no, no, I'm saying 2146 01:53:03,200 --> 01:53:07,320 Speaker 1: Little Wayne signed Drake. Yeah. I wouldn't say he discovered him. 2147 01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:09,920 Speaker 1: I know there was an infamous bidding war or Drake, 2148 01:53:10,040 --> 01:53:12,280 Speaker 1: but loew Wayne came out on top, the guy who 2149 01:53:13,200 --> 01:53:18,120 Speaker 1: pivoted from what Nickelodeon was on Degrassi.

Nowadays, Drake would have been 2152 01:53:23,800 --> 01:53:27,799 Speaker 1: in trouble for taking the role of a handicapped person, 2153 01:53:28,680 --> 01:53:30,599 Speaker 1: right because he was in a wheelchair in the show, 2154 01:53:30,880 --> 01:53:33,760 Speaker 1: was he Yeah, this was before my time.

That would have been a controversy. That was 2157 01:53:38,120 --> 01:53:41,120 Speaker 1: not a controversy at the time. He was just a 2158 01:53:41,200 --> 01:53:45,360 Speaker 1: kid actor.

Women are just 2164 01:54:00,360 --> 01:54:03,400 Speaker 1: like clamoring to meet me something along those lines and 2165 01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:05,720 Speaker 1: no laughter. Come on, I thought you guys would like that. 2166 01:54:05,840 --> 01:54:09,160 Speaker 1: Um the Ballers theme song. That show just got me 2167 01:54:09,280 --> 01:54:12,880 Speaker 1: amped at the beginning. Um, like the theme song that 2168 01:54:12,960 --> 01:54:15,320 Speaker 1: cuts it just it was a cool show. It's like 2169 01:54:15,479 --> 01:54:19,040 Speaker 1: Entourage was a cool show. Um, Ballers was a cool show. Now. 2170 01:54:19,080 --> 01:54:20,840 Speaker 1: I know you can't really say that stuff on social 2171 01:54:20,840 --> 01:54:23,000 Speaker 1: media because of all the soft losers on there who 2172 01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:26,080 Speaker 1: were like, oh, Entourage sucked, that show was so stupid. 2173 01:54:26,120 --> 01:54:30,000 Speaker 1: Like that show was amazing. Stop Entourage was incredible and 2174 01:54:30,040 --> 01:54:32,400 Speaker 1: Ballers because I mean the theme song led to it. 2175 01:54:32,440 --> 01:54:41,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, here it is makes you want to lift 2176 01:54:41,280 --> 01:54:43,600 Speaker 1: weights and work out.
