1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL podcast has plenty of armed talent.

2
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast.

3
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 1: My name is Dan Hansas, coming to you from a

4
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: stadium overflowing with heroes Mark Sessler, Chris Wesley, and Greg Rosenthalt.

5
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 1: What is up boys? Armed talent? One of my least

6
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: favorite little combine words I could think of something that

7
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 1: are less pleasant. It's like he's got some great writing

8
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: Talent's got some great uh hosting talent. Give me a

9
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: breaking How else would you like to encompass all that

10
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,559
Speaker 1: goes into armtown. Just go back and look at my

11
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 1: answer from when we had the same convo two years

12
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: ago on and Around. I think a little later in

13
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: today's show. We spoke with Daniel Jeremiah yesterday and you'll

14
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: hear that interview and he uses some the equivalent of

15
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: corporate jargon, uh, some buzzwords and describing a workout that

16
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 1: he had personally witnessed. And there's some arm talent talk

17
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 1: in that discussion. And I had a lot of stuff

18
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: to square away and and talk about um an address

19
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 1: with Move the Sticks, and it was, as always pretty contentious.

20
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: And now DJ has offended Greg with his with you

21
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: guys both showed professionalism, anger, fluid hips. It was it

22
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: was fantastic. Um. Yes, this is our second show of

23
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 1: the week from Indianapolis at the NFL Scouting Combine the

24
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: Underwear Olympics as they're known by some will kick off.

25
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: A little phrasing is annoying. Should we get rid of that?

26
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: That's gone? It's gone, sober um. That will kick off

27
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: later in the week. We're on airplanes tomorrow. We're here

28
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: as we always are to cover kind of the NFL

00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: news side of things, and we're gonna get into that

30
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: some headlines from around the league. But this today's show

31
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: is a good one because we got a lot of guests,

32
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: a lot of good stuff. As I said, move the

Speaker 1: of NFL Network. Good dude and highly knowledgeable and plugged in.

36
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk to him about what's going on with

37
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: the c b A talks uh speaking of contentious and

38
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,919

Speaker 1: and then we'll close the show out with a little

41
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: bit of Connie Fox. She's gonna come up to the

42
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: suite here at lucas Oil Stadium and we're gonna listen

43
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: to the final um entries for the contest, the Connie

44
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 1: Fox theme song. So that is fun. I can't wait

45
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: for that. But before we do any of that, I

46
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: was gonna throw out to news, but actually I want

47
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: to address our our show on Tuesday. Mark promised that

48
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: the robe that you wore, uh during Tuesday's show, Yes,

49
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: a bathrobe. A bathrobe. You promise you'd walk from Lucasile

50
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 1: Stadium back to our hotel in that robe. And you

51
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: were true to your word, and and we were by

52
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: your side the whole way back, and it did catch

53
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: the eye of one notable league figure, Greg You had that,

54
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,440
Speaker 1: that's true, and we all sort of forgot about it immediately.

55
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,519
Speaker 1: Mark is so comfortable in his own skin when he's

56
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: in that robe that everyone just forgot about it. No

57
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: one seemed to have noticed. But as we were getting

58
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: closer to our hotel, it's about a ten minute walk,

59
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: we were almost done with it. I did notice a

60
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: group of forty Niners personnel and John Lynch, their general

61
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: manager just like staring us down and West you noticed

62
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: it too, and I like okay, and then I like

63
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: looked down because I was just like, okay, this is weird.

64
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: We just made eye contact. That's enough. Look back up,

65
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: still staring, Look back down, look back up, still staring.

66
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: And it took me a while to realize it was

67
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: it was a quadruple stare down take that he was doing.

68
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: And then I, oh, of course he's staring at Mark

69
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: well you naturally, I don't know if everyone does, but

70
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, maybe he recognizes us. No, and he

71
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: recognizes He's just like, why is a grown man walking

72
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: through this hotel lobby in a bathroom? Yeah, I've learned

73
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: to use the combine. You know, we're here for three

74
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: or four days as an exercise in a bridge burning

75
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: like if I you know, we're we live in California.

76
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: Things went south with our show. Maybe float up north

77
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: and worked for the forty niners in some capacity will

78
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: not be happening on anymore. You could cross that off.

79
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: You're that guy in the hallway according to him. Yeah,

80
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: for a second, I did that. Oh maybe he knows

81
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 1: the podcast. And then we had our annual st Elmo steakhouse.

82
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 1: It's not about the meat. It's about the meat. And

83
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: that was a great time, Ricky, do you have a

84
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 1: good time with us? Yeah, it was awesome, Greg. The

85
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 1: night ended very it was a celebration. I think we

86
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 1: all had a really good time time. And I think

87
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: that's where we leave it. I think so too. Yeah,

88
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 1: we're all great. Everything was great to a nice so

89
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: rare to hear Erica like lost for words are just short, borderline,

90
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,799
Speaker 1: sheepish no, no, no. I just think that a moment

91
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 1: like we shared together is is best among friends time capsule.

92
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: Yeah you know, I mean you know. And we went

93
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: to a nice tavern after a place I find during well,

94
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: it's like almost like what it's it's wanting to be.

95
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: I didn't see anyone needing steak there. I saw everyone

96
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 1: turns right. It's it's like flooded with sort of indie

97
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,799
Speaker 1: based groupies slash harpies trying to talk to like gms

98
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: and coaches and celebrities, you know, and not us a

99
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: lot of journals And I won't say who the coach

100
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: is just because I don't want to be a jerk.

101
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: And this guy has already got thrown under the bus

102
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: in his career and I'm not going to be another

103
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: president to do it. But he was with him buddy.

104
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: He rolled in late, it was probably after midnight. Um,

105
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: he had a bud heavy and his friend had a

106
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 1: beer too, and this head coach was just standing at

107
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: the periphery of this crowded bar. And I just think

108
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: I couldn't stopped looking at this coach because I was like,

109
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: you're a head coach man. You're supposed to be owning

110
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 1: the town. Like remember the legends of Indian apples of

111
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 1: combine with guys like Rex Ryan holding court at the

112
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: shake shack, Like these guys are larger than life figures

113
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: that have many entourages. I saw this one particular head

114
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 1: coach just alone with his buddy, waiting for somebody to

115
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: talk to him, and it actually broke my heart a

116
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: little bit. Why why couldn't he if he had just

117
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: been having a good time with his buddy and not

118
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: even thinking any of these things. I don't know. I

119
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: just didn't love it. I just didn't love it. And

120
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: I will not say who it is same coach, though

121
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: I think we can say this that removed that we

122
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: talked about on Wednesday show that removed the dip out

123
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: of his mouth with his bare hands, so he was

124
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: a of the tobacco. There is a previous event we

125
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 1: were at where I barged into a group of coaches

126
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: with a beer in my hand, I believe, and I

127
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: have to narrow that down. Well, I'm not gonna say

128
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: who it was, but this man was among him and

129
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 1: I thought this he could and with one hand crushed

130
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: my entire skull and just silenced me. And he could

131
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: not have been nicer. So you know, I'm not given

132
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: the a t n subredd subreddit enough hints, you guys

133
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: try to figure it out from there. All right, let's

134
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: get to it. The defense, defenses get you to the championship.

135
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: The quarterbacks win championships. And I definitely feel doc is

136
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: is that quarterback? Here we go. Mike McCarthy's back, you know,

137
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: is it a little bit kind of like, uh, Mike

138
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: McCarthy's back. I'm happy the guys back in the league.

139
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: And he's getting paid nicely and he has one of

140
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 1: the best gigs in in the football world, but not

141
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: the most charismatic figure. And today he spoke and one

142
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 1: of the last few coaches um at his press conference

143
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 1: and didn't say much about the Cowboys. But that's just

144
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: a little snapshot into the fiery charisma of one. Mike McCarthy,

145
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: head co to the Dallas Cowboys. Once told me, if

146
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: he was not a football coach in life, what would

147
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: he be a construction worker? And I think these sweeping

148
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: generalizations about offense and defense, I think we should keep

149
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: him in the nineteen sixties where they belong. It's also

150
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: kind of a weird statement that loyal it take you

151
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl, but only in the Super Bowl

152
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: with the quarterback win. It's just so weird sort of.

153
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: I guess he has a ring. I don't know. It's

154
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: like basing it on your own experience. And that's it.

155
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: That was was kind of true of the two ten packers.

156
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,480
Speaker 1: I'll give them that, yeah, but they needed Aaron Rodgers think.

157
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: Speaking of quarterbacks who hoped to play in the Super Bowl,

158
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, he is the big uh name. A lot

159
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: of people that are in the know believe he will

160
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 1: be the number one pick the L s U Heisman

161
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 1: Trophy winner to the Cincinnati Bengals. We talked about it

162
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: last week. There had been some speculation and maybe West

163
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: you in it. Out maybe people reading too much into

164
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: some things that the young man said. And he was

165
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: asked about, you know, with the draft coming up, are

166
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: you somebody that would potentially throw up a roadblock allah

167
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: Eli Manning if he wasn't happy going to a certain

168
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: team like the Cincinnati Bengals. Here's what Joe Burrow said,

169
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: do you have any reservations about playing for the Cincinnati Bengals.

170
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: I'll play whoever for for whoever drafts. I mean, you know,

171
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: I'm I'm just not going to be presumptuous about, you

172
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: know what, what they want to do. It's the draft.

173
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 1: You guys have been covering it for a long time.

174
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: You never know what's gonna happen. So that should put

175
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: to bed any lingering questions about whether Burrow would go

176
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 1: to Cincinnati if they do indeed take him as their

177
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 1: quarterback of the future. That was a pretty simple yes

178
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,199
Speaker 1: or no answer, and the answer was yes. I'll me

179
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: even pressed him on it and he's like, I'm not

180
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 1: gonna not play. So he he was clear about a

181
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: good job by us, uh, noting that people were probably

182
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,599
Speaker 1: making a mountain out of a moholl that was a

183
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: media a generated story. In the end, isn't there another

184
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: angle and I know this kind of happened with with

185
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield and the Brown Sam Donald and Jets. Is

186
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: there's another career path where you go and you change

187
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 1: a franchise that's been ultra moribund for decades and decades

188
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: and and become the player that's that Cincinnati will never

189
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: view in it and the Lebron James type level. Or

190
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: you go to Cincinnati and the Bengals change Joe Burrow.

191
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: I mean that that can happen too, because I can't

192
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: think of a team from coaching staff on down with

193
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: more questions right now. I have no idea who The

194
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: Bengals quarterback press conferences at the Combine used to be

195
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: such a big deal, especially when it was in the

196
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,839
Speaker 1: old location. I remember like a lot of heat on

197
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: the Cam Newton year for instance, like how's he going

198
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: to handle himself? We're not too sure about this guy.

199
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: Then it's like he aced the press. All that stuff

200
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: is kind of silly. With all that said, watching Joe

201
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: Burrow and I watched the Big Chunk, he just seems

202
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: like the Bengals fan base is just gonna absolutely love him. Yes,

203
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,439
Speaker 1: it's like a cool, easy confidence, not letting things bother him.

204
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: I just sort of love it. He's custom made for

205
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,719
Speaker 1: Cincinnati with his personality. I mean he has that, he's

206
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: sort of a blue collar guy, but he also has

207
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: a little bit of um, a little yea in a

208
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: good way. I'll just play Devil's advocate. Is it possible

209
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: that he said what he needed to say at this event? Absolutely,

210
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 1: and he might not. He might still because he holds cards,

211
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: and he might play cards still. I'll play Devil's advocate.

212
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: But we could ask Mike Garafo that later um and

213
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 1: in maybe Hill have an idea. But I do believe

214
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: that people just took what he said um incorrectly because

215
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 1: when he was talking about leverage, he really was talking.

216
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: I believe his reason was what he needs to do

217
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: during this pre draft process. He has the leverage to

218
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: not work out here. He has the leverage to pick

219
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: and choose the teams that come to him. He doesn't

220
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: have to work out for fifty teams. He doesn't have

221
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: to work out here in Indianapolis. He that I really

222
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: believe that is what he what he intended, and people

223
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: just thunderstood. And to Mark's point, my inclination being from

224
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: Cincinnati and following the Bengals pretty closely for so many years,

225
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: is that they'll end up ruining this guy. But it's

226
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: not really fair. I mean, they don't say that they

227
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: didn't ruin Carson Palm or Chemo von Olhoffen shredded his

228
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 1: knee when they had one of the best offenses in

229
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 1: the NFL, and that's not the Bengals fault. But then

230
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,040
Speaker 1: you look, but they ruined the relationship after they ruined

231
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,839
Speaker 1: Yeah right, you look at how his career ended with

232
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 1: the Bengals. Much of the organization is different. At the

233
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: top of the chain. It is not Joe Burrow could

234
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: he bring you back to Cincinnati? Is a Bengals fan

235
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: West just checking in? I like to check in, you know,

236
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: I like to check I understand that. But you can't

237
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 1: manufacture love if nothing hasn't done going if nothing else,

238
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 1: if he provides an entertaining style of play, maybe the

239
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 1: Bengals could at least be a team you enjoy watching

240
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,719
Speaker 1: again and not rooting against. There have been times when

241
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 1: I've enjoyed watching the Bengals on game pairs. Um more

242
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: good news for us, because I know your family members

243
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: or many of them are Bengals fans, so that I

244
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 1: love how you always go to the you know, uh

245
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: yeah you yeah, you've you've turned your back on your brothers.

246
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 1: My brothers don't root for the Bengals. Mark Maski of

247
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:17,839
Speaker 1: the Washington Post reported on Tuesday that NFL teams are

248
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 1: strongly against renewing the instant replay rule making past interference reviewable.

249
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: On the Competition Committee's offseason survey, twenty one team said

250
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 1: they're not in favor of making the rule permanent, to

251
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: eight teams that said they're in favor of making it permanent.

252
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 1: As you may remember, when this rule went into effect

253
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 1: after the Saints got screwed the New Orleans screw job,

254
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: costing him a spot in Super Bowl fifty three, they

255
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: put in the rule, uh that you could um throw

256
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,319
Speaker 1: a flag for past interference. However, it was a one

257
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: year trial balloon, and now the time has come to

258
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: decide whether to make it a permanent rule or walk

259
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: away and see it as a somewhat noble failure. It

260
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 1: made the product worse. To me, it's that simple. It's

261
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 1: it's kind of an embarrassment if they walk away. I

262
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: do think that the Competition Committee will try hard to

263
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: improve the rule and get support to vote on a

264
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: new replay rule, because I don't think they just want

265
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: to give up. But it sounds like this rule the

266
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 1: way they did it is not coming back. They're gonna

267
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: have to tweak it and try to convince owners to

268
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: try it a different way. But they were tweaking in

269
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: the middle of the season, so they've already done at

270
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: least one tweak in a way, the rules in September

271
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: should be the same as the rules in January. At

272
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: least the NFL is acting flexibly about this, where we

273
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: can have these surveys and make changes until you get

274
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: it right. Because it I know the XFL, like, let's

275
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: say the thing melts down in a year or two

276
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: and it's gone. But you are you are looking at

277
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: a competitive league where they're saying, we're going to make

278
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 1: everything that troubles the NFL, We're gonna use it to

279
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: show our strengths. We're gonna be hyper flexible. Um, you know,

280
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: take some age old installed rules and just blow them

281
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: up in the NFL needs to make sure their product

282
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: is perfect and past interference has been a devil for

283
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: season after season and other news. By the way, do

284
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: you think our listeners can hear the person that's speaking loudly?

285
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: No way, Ricky, can you go knock some pets? There's

286
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: another podcast right next. Yeah, yeah, but who has better numbers?

287
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: You think, like who should actually be talking and who

288
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: should be just listening? I think they're interviewing Jordan Palmer

289
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: right now. Right, Well, so I guess that we attempted

290
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: to get so we were we were outmoded. This we

291
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,760
Speaker 1: never put in a form. I let me keep it down.

292
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: But are you trying to say that as if like

293
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: that's a huge get. No, I'm just saying I'm not

294
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 1: going to go knock skulls. All right, let's move on.

295
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. Oh, Acre, you had such a tough season

296
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen, and how do you get better? Well,

297
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: you got a new coaching staff that's good, and you

298
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: wipe away all the hype and build up that seemed

299
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 1: to work against the Browns. Will you? Also, you know,

300
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: your figure maybe a little bit plumb? Since it turns

301
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: out NFL Networks Ian Rappaport reports that Brown's quarterback Baker

302
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 1: Mayfield plans to be slimmer and faster. In rapp report

303
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: added that Mayfield put on some weight last year to

304
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: bulk up, and he lost some quickness. So we know, West,

305
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: you talk about it a lot, uh where the league's going.

306
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: Your quarterbacks gotta be able to move make plays off

307
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: what is it off schedule? Off schedule plays and maybe Baker,

308
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: did you notice that mark with that he wasn't able

309
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 1: to make some of the plays he made as a

310
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: rookie off schedule and instead of being dragged down in

311
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: the backfield. I mean, I think that absolutely was apparent

312
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: from the opening week Titans loss, where a combination a

313
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: combination of pass pressure and general uh guideless less they

314
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: they the whole offense seemed to lack a map um

315
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 1: from week one to the end of the year, and

316
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield's UH performance was lesser than year one in

317
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: every single category. And it's it kind of worries me

318
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 1: because I'd say he's one more ultra mediocre season away

319
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 1: from a lot of big questions being asked again in

320
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 1: Cleveland at that position that said, uh, you know, I

321
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 1: remember when Russell Wilson shed some weight and became more

322
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,239
Speaker 1: lie than able to move quicker and it helped him

323
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: have an uptick season. I think Baker Mayfield was a

324
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 1: combination of not quite um taking his role as seriously

325
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: as someone like a Tom Brady would last year, combined

326
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 1: with a team in chaos that on a weekly basis

327
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: did not put him in a great position to succeed.

328
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: So that's that's the kind of thing you could say,

329
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: bounce campaign potentially if all these things go right. But

330
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: a lot more question marks surround Baker Mayfield than I

331
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: ever could have imagined when we were talking about him

332
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: a year ago. Little Ruben esque. He didn't. He didn't

333
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: get big with muscle. He just kind of looks like

334
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: like Dan. You saw him at some of the Super Bowl, right, yeah,

335
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: at a one of those parties, and he does strike you.

336
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:23,879
Speaker 1: That's the one thing we all know, and it was

337
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,840
Speaker 1: maybe the only major knock on him coming out of

338
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: college was his size. That he's not a big guy

339
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 1: and he's not tall. Um, he just looked strikingly norm core.

340
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 1: Is that what I said earlier today, which is you

341
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: could describe you know, he looked like, uh like in

342
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: a sea of people at that party, looked like any

343
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: other guy. And covering our league or this league, excuse me,

344
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 1: covering this league, quarterbacks do not look like average people.

345
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: So what he has to work on, I guess is

346
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 1: just carving that body up a little bit, getting a

347
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,679
Speaker 1: little shredded and maybe taking in a little maybe like

348
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: Ben Roethlisberger, not a beautiful body, but he has carved

349
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,120
Speaker 1: out of a like a grassy mountain. Mayfield is never

350
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: gonna be a guy that's gonna easily see over his

351
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: line and things like that. So he needs, I would think,

352
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 1: everything else. He's got to check all the boxes physically,

353
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: get that bod tight. We have to do that too, Marke.

354
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: What I It's one of the only traits that I

355
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: share with any professional quarterback in this case with Baker Mayfield,

356
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,200
Speaker 1: is the body needs some work. We this is this

357
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: is this is body season now, um get it. Get

358
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: me out of this snow and outside, getting back to

359
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,400
Speaker 1: l A, getting on the streets. Out of the season.

360
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 1: You get past the super Bowl, and then you get

361
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: past the combine, and then you can start working on

362
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 1: a little self care a little bit and uh, paying

363
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: a little bit more attention to what you eat. You know,

364
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 1: you exercise a little bit more. This is something I

365
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: usually have my best bod moments from really post combine

366
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: until about September and then things start rolling downhill. So

367
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:59,720
Speaker 1: it's it's bod season. Well, very similar to the track

368
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: record like Eric man Jeanie had as. If you use

369
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: that offseason to only indulge in the US you know,

370
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: the sweeter things, your next football season will see you

371
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: looking like early period Rex Ryan Um. All right, moving

372
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: on to a how do you pronounced his last namegain?

373
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: What did we come down with the congo viola? Right? Nice,

374
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to it for now. Uh. He continues

375
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 1: to be on the right track physically. He had that

376
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: terrible hip injury that ended his college career in Alabama prematurely.

377
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 1: There was concerned at the time that it could be

378
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,120
Speaker 1: a type of injury that could really um hamper him

379
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:45,640
Speaker 1: and cost him dearly as a prospect. Well, everything we're

380
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,919
Speaker 1: hearing back is that his m R eyes are clean,

381
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: and he is a guy that once he goes through,

382
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,879
Speaker 1: assuming he goes through the pre draft process and the

383
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 1: workouts and you know what, he's not working out here right, No,

384
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:07,199
Speaker 1: but he will have I assume the pro day. Uh,

385
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: if his body is able to do that in time,

386
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:13,400
Speaker 1: and then if that alleviates fears about him physically he's

387
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 1: going to be a guy you think is a top

388
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 1: ten pick, and um, it led me to just check

389
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: in on the draft board and I just want to

390
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 1: see that. I want to check out this top ten.

391
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: Let's look at it with two uh potentially healthy and

392
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 1: looking like a guy who's gonna be hoping to have

393
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: a pro day. April ninth, April ninth. Okay, Mark, what

394
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:36,679
Speaker 1: have we learned? He's going top three? Right, he's a quarterback. Well,

395
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 1: you have Cincinnati at one, and let's say that's where

396
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: Burrow goes. You have the Redskins at two. Now they

397
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 1: are playing coy and saying, you know, we're open for

398
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 1: business potentially. But this Chase young guy, everything we're hearing

399
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,199
Speaker 1: is that he's a potential generational edge talent. But I

400
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 1: think in a perfect world, like the most perfect world,

401
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: you know, they who knows you, maybe they could trade

402
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: the three like San Francisco did and they tricked uh

403
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: old Chicago. I'm giving up some extra pick work out, uh,

404
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 1: but let's say they stay put and take young uh three.

405
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 1: The Lions. We've talked about them. They seem like a

406
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 1: team that could absolutely uh do business. And a team

407
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,199
Speaker 1: trades into that spot and perhaps takes to h and

408
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: then you're seeing some mocks. I just saw buckys uh

409
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 1: latest mock. Um he has to ago into the Dolphins

410
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: at five, which would be kind of funny because all

411
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: the handwringing and all the bearing of the Dolphins, which

412
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: was they kind of earned that very job. Um, But

413
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,479
Speaker 1: they might end up not having a historically bad season

414
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: and getting the guy they wanted all along, or wanted

415
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 1: you know, last September. It could work out that way,

416
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: well if you so. The medicals on to have been

417
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: very positive, and let's say the next couple of months

418
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 1: just we're glowing in terms of his workouts and everything else.

419
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 1: Are we putting it at zero percent chance that the

420
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 1: Bengals would ever be wooed into the to U scenario?

421
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: Is it zero? Is it? We're just clocking Burrow to him?

422
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 1: No questions asked. I agree with you you should ask

423
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 1: the question, because I don't think you should ask the question.

424
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,479
Speaker 1: The Bengal is an unpredictable franchise. Did anybody see Joe

425
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: Burrow's hands nine inches? What a disgrace? I mean, we

426
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,959
Speaker 1: got Mike Garafola just walked in the room. What if

427
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 1: what if we just extend this convo. We asked that

428
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: question to Mike and get that whole thing going. Oh,

429
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: it's got a head site out of all right, he's

430
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: got the headset on. Now we could ask him hand size,

431
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: be honest, it doesn't say, it doesn't change how we

432
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: feel about you. Seven inches, seven quarter? I don't know.

433
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,199
Speaker 1: I'm curious myself. How long is an iPhone eight plus?

434
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: Because I'm more than that. We gotta figure this out.

435
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,399
Speaker 1: We should you know what we should measure bill? A

436
00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: dollar bill? It's six inches right, it pulls out itsny

437
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 1: But that was just a show of power. You'll take

438
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: out a single. I'm all out of hund TV guy,

439
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 1: I take out my twenties. I'm all out of hundreds

440
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: of inches over there? Did did? Did you introduce me

441
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 1: to people? Know? Yeah? I guess this is Mike Garret

442
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 1: follow gentlemen, So I'm six inches and a thumb. Okay,

443
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: You've really learned a lot about podcasting and hosting as

444
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,160

445
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,040

449
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,199
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of responsibility falls on you. Excuse me,

00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: it's it's the rap Sheet has Friends podcast with the

451
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 1: question mark. All right, Mike, thank you for joining us.

452
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: You're plugged in, you get it. And we we have

453
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 1: to what we were just talking some quarterback stuff, um

454
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,439
Speaker 1: with obviously the draft and everything. We'll start We'll start

455
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: with where do you want to start? Mark? Well, I

456
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: think we were talking about to uh and you know,

457
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 1: the medicals look great, and if you were to have

458
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 1: a glowing lead up to the draft, is there any

459
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 1: percentage chance, based on what you're hearing from these big

460
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 1: wigs all over the place, that the Bengals could ever

461
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,120
Speaker 1: you know, move off the Joe Burrow fascination and even

462
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:20,360
Speaker 1: contemplate taking to it first. Overall, I would think not um,

463
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: as someone explained to me uh this morning, and not

464
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 1: really someone in the Bengals decision making process, but close

465
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: enough said that, Uh yeah, no one with the last

466
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: name Brown uh said if we don't take Burrow, they're

467
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,360
Speaker 1: going to burn the stadium down basically, um and and

468
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 1: I mean might be doing them a favor. It didn't

469
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: sound like, yeah, it didn't. They're they're not that kind

470
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: of a fan base. I don't think so. I think

471
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 1: that that was a bit overstated. Have you seen the

472
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,479
Speaker 1: beer cans they threw on Ben Roethlisberger's lifeless body when

473
00:25:55,520 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 1: they're yes, uh yeah. And I remember a certain pep

474
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: talk by one Sandwich at one point to let's let's

475
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: listen to that. Yeah. Well, the next person that sees

476
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: me anybody, well anything onto this field, point them out

477
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 1: getting out of here. You don't let it Cleveland. Um.

478
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: So uh yeah, so, uh, you know, I I think

479
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: it's a very very very small percentage chance. And the

480
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 1: thing with ta is he's my friend contractually, he's my

481
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:32,439
Speaker 1: friend Ian rappaport Um, and he's the only friends he has.

482
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: And he's reported a lot of a lot of glowing

483
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: medical things on toa UM, which is great, but it's

484
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 1: still it's still gonna be a thing. It's whoever winds

485
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: up taking to a is taking a risk at some point,

486
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 1: a medical risk. But at least if you're the Redskins

487
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:54,639
Speaker 1: and Ron Rivera spoke uh Wednesday today, you know that

488
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 1: they're open for business at number two. It does raise

489
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 1: the you know, possibility that some one is more likely

490
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: to give up a huge offer forget about going to

491
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: three to get to UH at two with the Redskins. Yeah,

492
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 1: And um, I think Rivera is playing the game. I

493
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 1: think if they truly, honestly we're gonna go quarterback, you

494
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't know about it. It's like getting whacked by the mob.

495
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,199
Speaker 1: You'd never hear anything. It's Tony soprano, if the if

496
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,959
Speaker 1: the if the Redskins, we're gonna go quarterback. If the Redskins,

497
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:24,880
Speaker 1: We're gonna go quarterback. Yeah. So the fact that they're

498
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: doing it now is is the whole Hey, anybody want

499
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 1: to play? And and Rivera was asked about, you know,

500
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 1: is there a fallback scenario here uh for you where

501
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 1: you would trade out of that spot? And he paused

502
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: and said, yeah, but it's probably not very realistic. Um.

503
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: So I think that he's playing the game in a

504
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: number of ways. I don't think they wind up with

505
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: Chase Young. Um. But it also gives you a little

506
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,360
Speaker 1: bit of a kick in in the pants if you're

507
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 1: Dwayne Haskins. Um to know that. And and there's a

508
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: lot of that going on around the league right now

509
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: with Mike Mayock saying, you know, if we can get

510
00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: better at quarterback, we'll get better. We like Derek car

511
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,919
Speaker 1: a lot. Um. There's a lot of motivational employees, certainly

512
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,160
Speaker 1: in Tampa Bay right now, a lot of pants kicking. Yeah,

513
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,879
Speaker 1: oh yeah, kicking him um. And and the thing with

514
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 1: Haskins and I got killed for this last year. I said,

515
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 1: you know, there's there's talk about he's got to get

516
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: in that playbook more, he's got to be in the

517
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: facility more. He's gotta do. Doug Williams last week comes

518
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 1: out and says, if I'm Dwayne Haskins, I gotta be

519
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:22,959
Speaker 1: in that billy, he better be there until they kick

520
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: him out of there number one. Uh. And then you

521
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,479
Speaker 1: got Rivera today talking about how great it's been so

522
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: far for him to show up at the facility, make

523
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 1: his rounds and see Dwayne Haskins in the weight room,

524
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: see Dwyne Haskins uh in the meeting. Now, granted, Rivera

525
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,080
Speaker 1: wasn't there last year, but it's clear that he knows

526
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 1: what the reputation is and what Haskins needs to do

527
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: here in this offseason. Less selfies, more grinding. Yeah, that

528
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: was subtle. Score settline by you going back to kind

529
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 1: of point out, it's that as as as Rap Report,

530
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 1: way too many Rap Report references. But as Rap Report

531
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 1: likes to say, the mean streets of Scoop Town, there

532
00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 1: are rules and there are um it is it is

533
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 1: ever seen Scoopytown. The population what like thirty Maybe I

534
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 1: I've written down here nicest insider question mark because I

535
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 1: kind of view a lot of these guys very cutthroat.

536
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 1: They'd probably uh take each other out if they were

537
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: given a chance. You've always struck me as a kinder person,

538
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: but I'm questioning to degree, well, I feel like my

539
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 1: cover has been blown in the last minute here. So

540
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: it's it's it's more it's more of a subtle, uh

541
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 1: twisting of the knife, and they don't forget that I

542
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: said this, lady and there. Well, there's some things that

543
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: I tend to carry with me and some things that

544
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: I just kind of go whatever. But but nothing bothers

545
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: me more than the guy that goes well. As I

546
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: reported months ago, as I told you, how about the

547
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: guy when like news happens and then he's like well,

548
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 1: I wrote this article two and a half years ago

549
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 1: about how good this linebacker group is like, Hey, no

550
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: one cares about your old article. What's funny a little bit.

551
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 1: What's funny is is I saw the opposite recently. I

552
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: saw a guy. Let me see if I remember remember

553
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 1: the details of it. So I said something about, what

554
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 1: the hell was it? Oh? It was DK Metcalf, and

555
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 1: I said, I will never understand why DK Metcalf went

556
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: as low as he did. And another reporter who shall

557
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: remain name this is a friend of mine, basically came

558
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: after me and was like, well, you're forgetting it. This

559
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: and this and this and this, and I'm thinking he's

560
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: telling on himself. He's so I went back and found

561
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: stuff that he had written saying that DK Metcalf probably

562
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: not his own opinion, but people he talked to around

563
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: the league. And I'm thinking, you dummy, you're telling on yourself.

564
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: Nobody's sitting there saying, oh, well, this guy wrote all

565
00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: this stuff before because nobody remembers. So I that was

566
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 1: the opposite of it. I feel like that was not

567
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: very productive of that person. But I love him and

568
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: I'll buy him a beer later. That's not rap. Okay,

569
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: let's suck c b A because you are a good

570
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: point guy on this and I think, as we've talked

571
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: about on this show, it is in the best senships

572
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 1: of everyone from fans the media UH that this gets done.

573
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: But will it get done? We shall see, because player

574
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: representatives voted to send a new deal UH that's already

575
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: been approved by the owners that includes a seventeen game

576
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,080
Speaker 1: season to the full union membership. You need a simple

577
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: majority of some two thousand players UH to accept the

578
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: agreement for it to go into effect this year. Now.

579
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: We've been seeing bubbling up today on Twitter players that

580
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 1: are against this deal saying it's got to be a

581
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: negative vote and a no vote. And Russell Wilson, we

582
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 1: saw that's a prominent name, and then we saw one

583
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 1: of the pouncy boys, Marquise was it. Uh. Here's let's

584
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: listen in on a video message he put out on

585
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: social let's count the beliefs, its vote, that the leaders

586
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: there look it out for the best of the players.

587
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 1: If y'all want my vote, the pounds of twins vote

588
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: note and if any player or any one of our teams,

589
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: if y'all hurt for money or anything while we go

590
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: through this lock out, call us man. We got way

591
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: any more money than what they have back in the days.

592
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: We ain't gotta worry about that. All the events on

593
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: each team, stand up up, stand up show, these guys

594
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,719
Speaker 1: do we care about them? Man? I care about all

595
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: you young players, and I love you guys a dolt.

596
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna let you all down. Trust and believe

597
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 1: they're trying to sign a bullish tess deal. Just something.

598
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: Sitting at president could go around the smile and say,

599
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 1: I got something done. You didn't get done twelve, but

600
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: should there have been thirteen? Because ass made it through there.

601
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if you noticed that. Fair point. We

602
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 1: allow us on this program, not a kindler, gentler pouncy

603
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: brother offering help to other players. I hear the sailors,

604
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, I do find it interesting that his plan

605
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 1: is for the veterans to float the younger guys. They'll

606
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: see how that goes. Sustain it something you they should

607
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: all go straight to the pouncy brothers. So so let's

608
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 1: let's review the tape here. So Paltsy's counterproposal was, oh wait,

609
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: that's right. There was nothing in their substance. Uh And

610
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: and don't worry, young guys, the older guys are gonna

611
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 1: take care of you. I I just I don't. I

612
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 1: don't see the logic that that's gonna But it might not.

613
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: It might not pass if the player representatives only voted

614
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 1: seventeen fourteen in favor. So all you need is a majority,

615
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: and that you know, in that group of people it

616
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 1: was a slight majority. It seems like it's going to

617
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: be a close vote. It's very interesting because the initial

618
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 1: knee jerk reaction was this thing is gonna get past.

619
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: There's gonna be no problem once you go to the majority.

620
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 1: These guys are gonna be like, alright, so we get

621
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 1: to keep playing football and we get a little bit

622
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: more money. Cool vote yes, blah blah blah whatever. But

623
00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 1: a lot of times now these guys might be influenced

624
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: by what they're saying. Oh well, if Russell Wilson's against it,

625
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: if Aaron Rodgers is against it, Uh, if J. J.

626
00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: Watts against it, Oh, maybe I should be against it

627
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: because it's kind of they they figured that these guys

628
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 1: are a little bit more plugged in. I will say this. Look,

629
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: the NFL p A went to this, and I don't

630
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: want to get too deep into the weeds aase nothing

631
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: makes people's eyes rolling their heads more than revenue splits um.

632
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:08,320
Speaker 1: But the p A went into this with the intention

633
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 1: and this is what you hear from the league of

634
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 1: really working for the lower end of their pay scale.

635
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:17,680
Speaker 1: I've heard estimates of anywhere from of guys in the league.

636
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 1: Players are either rookie deals or minimum salary deals. So

637
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: guys in the lower end of the pay scale, and

638
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 1: they're gonna get the low end, is gonna get like

639
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,720
Speaker 1: a ninety dollar pay bump on the minimum salary. Now,

640
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 1: I had an agent say, oh big, what they got

641
00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 1: ninety more for That's a lot of money to that guy, okay, espeah,

642
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: I mean, do the math on it, right, And and

643
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 1: on top of that, he's gonna get other escalators that

644
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: don't exist now in the current there's basically gonna be

645
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 1: more money for that guy. So if he really does

646
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: look at what's coming his way, I would think you're

647
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 1: gonna have many more yes votes than no votes from

648
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 1: those guys, and that that should make this thing easily pass.

649
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 1: And I just you know, I know there's also there's

650
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 1: that I've read stuff ab out you know, the TV

651
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: deal pending, the like that contract, the Trump election. You

652
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 1: want to get this thing done sooner than later. But

653
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: is there any scenario where we get like a nineteen

654
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,720
Speaker 1: month hold out and while you're in front of Park Avenue,

655
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: I'm at like a semester at sea doing something that

656
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 1: I wanted. They don't offer that for men of your age. Yeah,

657
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:23,479
Speaker 1: the last time in school. Yeah, he's this kind of like, hey,

658
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: Princeton undergrads, what's going on you? You could study abroad,

659
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 1: but it's a different there's there's a never mind. Um,

660
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: the uh, last time this happened inven I got married. Um,

661
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,240
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that's gonna happen again. It's always possible.

662
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 1: I never know when I'm gonna come home and the

663
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 1: locks are gonna be changed. Uh. It was great. It

664
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 1: was very convenient for me because we got married in March.

665
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: We went on we actually went on two honeymoons. Now

666
00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 1: really sounding really boogie, I'm sorry, but it's pertinent to

667
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: the story though. We go away on one honeymoon. I

668
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 1: come back, I said, actually has friends podcasting, not a

669
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 1: lot of listeners, but a lot of money. A lot

670
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 1: of money. Well, let me let me calculate what we've

671
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 1: what we got last week off of that? Oh, it's

672
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: a zero from the week before. Um so, uh, it

673
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: was great because I kept leaving and coming back and

674
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,800
Speaker 1: saying what happened. Nothing didn't miss any because I was

675
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 1: just I was just I wasn't covering the league. I

676
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,319
Speaker 1: was covering one team. That would be different now. I

677
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 1: don't want to stand on a corner, is what I'm saying.

678
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 1: I'm glad that you want to do the Albert Beer memorial.

679
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 1: So the great so Albert Brier, love him to death. Uh,

680
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: stands on the street corner for six months, comes back

681
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 1: and gets these. Once the lockout was settled, there's all

682
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: of a sudden these tweets like he may have been trending.

683
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: I don't even know if we knew trending back then,

684
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: he may have been trending on Twitter because people were like, oh,

685
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,720
Speaker 1: fantastic job, Albert Brier is so great. Whatever. And Steve

686
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:49,760
Speaker 1: POLITTI my colleague at the time at the Star Ledger,

687
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 1: tweets out and I'll never forget this tweet. I actually

688
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: went and found it a couple of days ago and

689
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:55,399
Speaker 1: send it to him. Uh. He tweets out, I'm sorry,

690
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 1: did I miss something? Did Albert Brier just come back

691
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: from the front lines of Afghanistan. I'm like, dude, that

692
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 1: was harsh, but actually kind of funny, and I just

693
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 1: found it in the center again. I said, hopefully you're

694
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 1: not tweeting this about me in a year we get

695
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 1: the hot summer. Well that that's the uh, the thing

696
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: about this negotiate everyone's paying attention to on a day

697
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 1: by day basis, but compared to last time around or

698
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 1: almost any time around, it's done and their way ahead

699
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 1: of schedule. It really isn't something that probably needs to

700
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 1: be overly stressed about because so much has been agreed

701
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 1: to the players who are upset about it. I mean

702
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 1: they're upset with the union who's been working like hard

703
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: and kind of getting there, you know, good points into

704
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 1: the deal as much as they can for six months.

705
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 1: They've been negotiating this deal. It's their deal. But what

706
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 1: have those players, those dissenters been doing for the last

707
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 1: six football playing football? So they kind of came in

708
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: and we're like, all right, cool, where were what about

709
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: this thing that we were talking about back then? Yeah,

710
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 1: well that that didn't fly. Well what about this? What

711
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 1: about the you know? So they feel like yeah, and

712
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: and and and saying well we got to go back.

713
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 1: No, no no, no, we we already talked about that. You

714
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 1: guys were like your podcast this, these are volunteer jobs,

715
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 1: these team leaders. Yeah, yeah, thank you for reminding me.

716
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: Percentage percentage chance by three years from now cler with

717
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: the hammer drop seventeen game season percentage. There's no way

718
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 1: it doesn't happen, No way, no way, all right, and

719
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: it and it benefits it benefits the players. I mean,

720
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: is one more game really going to take that much

721
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: off of them? More wear and tear and those kind

722
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,520
Speaker 1: of things. I don't think basically, you can't get to

723
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: be the only number that works. That's what Like, there's

724
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,720
Speaker 1: this idea that that seventeen is too brutal for the players,

725
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: But how did sixteen get to be the only number?

726
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 1: But that used to be ten years from now when

727
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,359
Speaker 1: there's another when there's another CBA bargaining, it's like, how

728
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 1: stupid is it that we did an odd number? We

729
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 1: gotta go to eighteen? Yeah, yeah, And I mean, of

730
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 1: course that was the whole idea. I mean, it's basically

731
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 1: like losing in the wild card round every single year.

732
00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 1: You are the Marvin Lewis Bengals. The entire NFL is

733
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: the Marvin Lewis Bengal. It's like the Patriots have been

734
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 1: playing a twenty game season every every single year. Somebody

735
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 1: called Marvin and calculate what all those games took off

736
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: of his his his coaching took off his life. Really,

737
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 1: why don't we figure it all out? Contact Bengals fans

738
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 1: and see how many Yeah, Marvin Lewis took off the

739
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 1: um Mike, you've said it all. I mean, you're a

740
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,720
Speaker 1: busy man, and still you made it up to Sweet

741
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 1: thirteen A slash B. That's all we got. I think

742
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: I'm in b if I lead back, I'm in b

743
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: if I sit forward. I'm in it while you're here

744
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: A quick one, like, just give us which teams do

745
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,360
Speaker 1: you think are gonna go bananas in free agency? So

746
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 1: I just want to know this. Yeah, but I see

747
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: I say Seahawks, But if they resigned you debbian Clownie

748
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 1: and jarn Reid, that doesn't really count, right because it's

749
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 1: like Eagles. Maybe maybe I could see the Eagles being aggressive.

750
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 1: I don't see the Cults being that aggressive. I could

751
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 1: be wrong about as Rivers going there, uh today about that,

752
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 1: it's it's gonna happen, Rivers to the cults. I'm not

753
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 1: sure about the source. But put me down for no. Yeah,

754
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: put me down for no. Okay, interesting, I'll see if

755
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 1: I can come back with the info on who I

756
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be to us first. Oh, they're getting

757
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:22,719
Speaker 1: someone out pure yeah yeah, well yeah, somebody, somebody's got

758
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: to do. You have a one wild like QB carousel

759
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,879
Speaker 1: prediction or thing that you think could happen that one

760
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 1: wild one? I see wild would be Brady winding up

761
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,840
Speaker 1: somewhere other than New England to me um one wild

762
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 1: one Teddy Bridgewater and Tampa. Maybe is that wild? But

763
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,919
Speaker 1: that's good? I like it. Nothing about moving on, nothing

764
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:46,239
Speaker 1: about Teddy as wild. And the Chargers can't honestly be

765
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,200
Speaker 1: going with Tyrod Tiller. They they've got to have something

766
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:50,839
Speaker 1: up there sleep Tyrod and Justin Herbert Maybe you know,

767
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 1: all of a sudden makes a little sense, right Mike Garfolo.

768
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: He is, of course NFL Network reporter extraordinaire, also the

769
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:04,279
Speaker 1: co host of g MFB Weekend with Colleen Wolf, who

770
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 1: is in the background. That's her. I never knew Colleen

771
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,239
Speaker 1: to be a wool girl. It's a big one, big

772
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 1: woo girl. Uh, Mike, thank you for joining us, and

773
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 1: come on again just in the future we love happen.

774
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:19,560
Speaker 1: How about a free agency special? Will make that happen? Alright,

775
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 1: Mike Garretfolo. All right, there he goes, Mike Garretfolo. Always good, uh,

776
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:28,759
Speaker 1: info with Mike, and before we throw it, to move

777
00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 1: the sticks, to settle some scores and and do a

778
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: little um Joe Burrow talk. And it's a nice conversation

779
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,399
Speaker 1: with Mike. We do need to do something. We had

780
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:42,839
Speaker 1: teased a Peter Schrager Mark Cessler update on yesterday's show,

781
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:44,919
Speaker 1: but we didn't get around to it. So I think

782
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: we none of us know, um what happened between you

783
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: and Pete when apparently cross paths here in Indianapolis. But

784
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: just a reminder that last week Mark put out his

785
00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 1: NFL media Personality Power rankings, and three members of Good

786
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: Morning Football were on that list. Connor or who sadly

787
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 1: fell ill with the flu this week and could not

788
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,799
Speaker 1: make it out to indian couldn't join us at stake night,

789
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 1: or Nicky Blaine's crushing uh. And it also, of course

790
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: Atlanta Journal Constitutions legendary beat scribe Orlando led Better. All right,

791
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,840
Speaker 1: Pete not on the list, and it made waves and

792
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,360
Speaker 1: social you saw people you know tagging him uh, and

793
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 1: it seemed like the start of a potential beef. Well

794
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 1: and some people you know, correctly or incorrectly, it's up

795
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 1: to you to decide. Noted how how upset mark you

796
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 1: know was that he was not the most respected member

797
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: of the Around the NFL podcast according to Stranger, and

798
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 1: it seemed like a very one to one response. Well,

799
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 1: so that was what happened. Well, that's the last time

800
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: that I saw Peter Schrieger was was out poolside and

801
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 1: I asked the question to him, which one of us well,

802
00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:58,439
Speaker 1: and I did not like the answer at all because

803
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,320
Speaker 1: it was it was formulated because answer and uh. And

804
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: then you asked again the next time he was on

805
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 1: the show about a month and a half, right, and

806
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:07,960
Speaker 1: that was my phone No, that no, in that incident.

807
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,479
Speaker 1: He so he gave a review of our on air

808
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: network show and I had created and put a lot

809
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 1: of heart and time into a little two minute did

810
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,400
Speaker 1: he called Operation Dirt Nap And he explained it basically

811
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,800
Speaker 1: said he was watching on airplane, no idea what was happening.

812
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 1: That's how he described part A part beat so I

813
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: have not seen him since this heats bubbled up, and

814
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 1: you know, it was raining a couple of days here

815
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: that the sun refuses to come out into the sky

816
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,799
Speaker 1: in this city. I don't sure what the deal is there.

817
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: But I'm getting into an elevator, got into an elevator

818
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: in our hotel, and um, you know, it's one of

819
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 1: those scenarios where I can hear someone rushing towards the

820
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 1: elevator door as it's shutting clothes and slam clothes, and

821
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,400
Speaker 1: as you know, with about three or four inches, I

822
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 1: see the form of Peter Schraeger trying to get into

823
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 1: my elevator holding an umbrowa lah. And so he's a

824
00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:05,280
Speaker 1: big guy. He's probably got you by about I guess

825
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: maybe less. I don't want to. I'm not gonna over

826
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 1: sell that. But and so you know, my first inclination is,

827
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: had it been anyone else, I need to immediately open

828
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: that door. And and so but it's you know, it

829
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,479
Speaker 1: is Peter Schreeger. And that was a very awkward moment

830
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 1: because we made eye contact and I don't know what

831
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: he knows about this so called feud that we're in.

832
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 1: So well, no, so that I'm looking at the l

833
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 1: of the bank of buttons on the elevator, and there's

834
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 1: like six hundred of them, and I'm like waging war

835
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 1: with this thing, and finally find the one that has

836
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,360
Speaker 1: the two arrows going in opposite direction so that the

837
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:42,239
Speaker 1: door opens, and then Schreeger is standing there and we

838
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 1: look at each other. There's no one else on the elevator.

839
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: He comes in and you know, he's coming in from

840
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 1: out of the rain, and he's like, Hey, what is this?

841
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:52,920
Speaker 1: Uh good to see it, but what is going on

842
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 1: with this this feud? This thing I'm caring about the Terrys,

843
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 1: Like I haven't listened to the show in quite some time.

844
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:00,319
Speaker 1: I believe we're the words. You know, he didn't mean

845
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,839
Speaker 1: it in a malicious sense the way that we believe. Yeah,

846
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,600
Speaker 1: he was. He was out of the loop and so

847
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 1: at your piece, right, And so I tried to explain

848
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: to him. I said, listen, you know, uh, Peter, and

849
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 1: it's like I could not get to the eighth floor

850
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 1: quick enough for me to get out of the elevator,

851
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 1: and I, you know, and I'm saying to him, things

852
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:20,399
Speaker 1: are fine, it's absolutely It's just it's dust in the wind. Uh,

853
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 1: you know, there's you go. Did you play it as

854
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 1: a you told him it was a manufactured joke, or

855
00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:26,799
Speaker 1: did you tell the truth that it actually comes from

856
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 1: a very real place. I don't want to like sit

857
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,279
Speaker 1: in a feud with someone, so I viewed it as

858
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,960
Speaker 1: a chance to kind of reconnect um if if we've

859
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 1: ever been connected, and to try to yeah, bury the

860
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 1: hatch for like the thirty seven seconds before the door

861
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 1: opens and very efficient elevator. Well, and I had to move.

862
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 1: So the door opens and as I get out on

863
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 1: my eighth floor and I'm turning around and the doors

864
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,200
Speaker 1: closing on his face. I don't know what came out

865
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 1: of mouth. I just said, love you, bro, And I

866
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: walked back to my room and I was that was

867
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 1: just an incredibly awkward meeting. But he couldn't have been nicer.

868
00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 1: So I I will say that my Internally, I'm feeling

869
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 1: a little bit because you know what else, you now

870
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: have it totally off balance because I love you, bro,

871
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 1: I love you, Bro. He's like, where is where is

872
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 1: this guy coming from? Well, and sometimes I feel that

873
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,400
Speaker 1: with you, So imagine somebody that doesn't know you as well,

874
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,319
Speaker 1: totally discombobulating. I have an update on my own. I

875
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 1: randomly shared an elevator with Peter Schraeger. This guy just

876
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 1: hanging out with the elevator, but he cradled you like

877
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 1: a baby. I'd imagine it was eight floors. I'm on

878
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 1: the same floor as Mark. Uh no cradle line. Um.

879
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:37,240
Speaker 1: But he did ask hey, what he asked similarly? Um?

880
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:39,600
Speaker 1: I think he was trying to just see what where

881
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,840
Speaker 1: did it come from? Or was it? Was it in

882
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 1: fun or were you actually Pizz's radar? And uh, I

883
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 1: did mention the genesis of it that you know it

884
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 1: came from when you know he had asked that question

885
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 1: and as you were spooning on the floor of the elevator,

886
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:55,879
Speaker 1: and he's like, well, I didn't do any power he's

887
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,920
Speaker 1: He's like, I didn't rank him, uh last or anything

888
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,399
Speaker 1: like that. It's you know where I ran. Couldn't wait

889
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:03,600
Speaker 1: to give the context to Pete again. You remember when

890
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 1: they asked, like who you respecting most? And you said

891
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 1: me without even a beat? Remember that? Remember that? Remember that?

892
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,839
Speaker 1: Remember that? Remember that. Actually I don't even know if

893
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:14,719
Speaker 1: I walked through all this. It was a very It

894
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 1: was about a ten second ride, so there wasn't there

895
00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 1: wasn't too much to it, and uh, yeah that I

896
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:22,439
Speaker 1: said it was all it was all just in good

897
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 1: fun and uh and uh, you know, having having a

898
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: little fun. I find it odd in an annoying sense

899
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:32,040
Speaker 1: that we both were in solo elevator rides and you

900
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 1: had the chance to reframe history. No, I I I

901
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 1: watched it. I thought, I thought, I mean even more so.

902
00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 1: He always said, no, it was all in in silly fun.

903
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 1: The only reason Dan and I don't have Peter Schrager

904
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,200
Speaker 1: elevator stories is because Greg nipped it in the bud.

905
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 1: He would have been there today waiting for me to

906
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:53,520
Speaker 1: figure out what was going on. And I do feel again,

907
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,719
Speaker 1: as host of the show, I do feel responsibility to

908
00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 1: get Pete on the show to close this loop because

909
00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 1: there just seems to be a little bit more to

910
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 1: address here between Mark and Peter directly. So I'm gonna

911
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 1: effort towards that with my producer Erica. Love you Bro,

912
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 1: I love you Bro. Alright, let's get to it. We

913
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: spoke with Daniel Jeremiah yesterday. Here it is all right. Here.

914
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 1: We are at Lucas Oil Stadium in a very spacious

915
00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 1: suite because we are with the Shield, and we are

916
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:27,560
Speaker 1: with the man of the hour, the guy who basically

917
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:32,799
Speaker 1: once it's Danny Jeremiah Draft season. The the ego is

918
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 1: just out of control. And I'm gonna get to that

919
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: in a minute. But first, as the host of the show,

920
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,960
Speaker 1: let me introduce Daniel Jeremiah a k move the sticks

921
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,680
Speaker 1: to be around the NFL podcast. Well, first of all,

922
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,080
Speaker 1: it's nice to see that assessor dressed up for the occasion.

923
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:49,879
Speaker 1: So that's really welcoming. You know, I feel like you're

924
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 1: stepping up your game when you come on the big

925
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,880
Speaker 1: A T N pod And well, and part of that

926
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 1: is in your appearance. And this is this it's it's

927
00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:59,040
Speaker 1: challenging on You probably already know everything that we don't

928
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,240
Speaker 1: about this, but the whisp is about moving the combine

929
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:05,400
Speaker 1: away from Indianapolis. Are untenable to me because it's a

930
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,839
Speaker 1: tunnel system that connects us. I could walk right over

931
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,000
Speaker 1: from the room wearing the bathrobe from the room. Mark

932
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 1: has hit the level of madness where he is, yes,

933
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 1: wearing a bathrobe in public. And I imagine this is

934
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,319
Speaker 1: something that will stay on tonight at st Elmo and

935
00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 1: maybe for the rest of the week. It's like my

936
00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 1: new Luke like look heading into my fifties and beyond

937
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 1: the way you The way you can make that work, though,

938
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,840
Speaker 1: is you can get like some velcrow with Miyagi, do karate,

939
00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 1: and just every hotel you go to you just use

940
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 1: that robe, slap that thing on the back, and they

941
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 1: think you're on. You got your g on, You're on

942
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:36,880
Speaker 1: your way to a tournament. You're an idea man. I

943
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 1: like it, Daniel Jeremiah. You you and I as always

944
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 1: have an issue, and this one I want to get

945
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,520
Speaker 1: to because we're gonna get into some combine talk like

946
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:50,439
Speaker 1: Dan doesn't even look at you. We're gonna get into

947
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 1: all that. But I just want to start with how

948
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,319
Speaker 1: this trip began, which was, let's just say what it

949
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,400
Speaker 1: was like a very bad foot. We got off on

950
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:02,520
Speaker 1: because at L A X I get on the plane

951
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 1: immediately a bad sign. There's no air conditioning on the plane.

952
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:08,359
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a delay. And it turns out we

953
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 1: were sitting on the plane for an hour and a

954
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: half before it took off. But who do I see

955
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,360
Speaker 1: as I get onto the onto the plane right there

956
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:19,320
Speaker 1: in first class, Daniel Jeremiah. And I'm gonna tell you something.

957
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 1: Your agent did a nice job. Your agent got you

958
00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 1: first class booked into your cont written into your contract

959
00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:28,920
Speaker 1: that I have no issue with that. But it was

960
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,960
Speaker 1: the self satisfied smirk that you had as all of

961
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:37,840
Speaker 1: your colleagues me, Charlie, Yuke, David, really just a parade

962
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,319
Speaker 1: of people walked by you, how proud you were of

963
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:42,279
Speaker 1: yourself that you were sitting in the seat, in this

964
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,399
Speaker 1: giant leather chair while the rest of us headed back

965
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:48,839
Speaker 1: to the meat grinder. It's funny because I I don't

966
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,120
Speaker 1: even remember you getting on the plane. But it could

967
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 1: have been. It could have been the flight attendant was

968
00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 1: taking drinks before we before the plane took off. It

969
00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:58,520
Speaker 1: could have been the conversation I was engaged with with

970
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh, who was sitting next to me. I don't recall,

971
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 1: but I really didn't even remember you getting on the plane.

972
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:06,360
Speaker 1: I don't know why you would become in Indianapolis in

973
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 1: the first place for the combine. But then I log on,

974
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,320
Speaker 1: I log on social media, and who's who's lobbing shots

975
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 1: from the bathroom in the back. Well here's the other thing. So,

976
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:21,960
Speaker 1: like I said, there was some type of issue with

977
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:26,120
Speaker 1: the um heating and cooling. So We're sitting on the tarmac,

978
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 1: and this is what Jeremiah does. He's a nice guy

979
00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 1: to your face, but the wheels are always turning. He's

980
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:35,600
Speaker 1: leaning over into the middle of the row talking to

981
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh less Snee, the GM of the RAMS is

982
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,280
Speaker 1: to his right, and he wants me to see him

983
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:47,080
Speaker 1: comfortable with his champagne and his big fluffy chair and

984
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:49,840
Speaker 1: his conversation with one of the great minds of football.

985
00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:52,000
Speaker 1: And you didn't care how long we were sitting on

986
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 1: the tarmacause you felt fun. I did feel comfortable, But

987
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 1: you're not telling the rest of the story because you

988
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,279
Speaker 1: love the tweet. To take your shot, and I did.

989
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:01,800
Speaker 1: I did, made sure we were at a comfortable altitude

990
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: and the fast and seatbelt sign was off, and ventured

991
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: out into the back to say hello to my good

992
00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:07,880
Speaker 1: friend Dan. I can't find him anymore. I'm going up

993
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:09,520
Speaker 1: and down the als and he's been in the bathroom

994
00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 1: for twenty minutes. I don't worry he is. And then

995
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I asked, like Charlie UK and everybody,

996
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:16,759
Speaker 1: I'm like, why I see this guy who's who's asleep

997
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:21,200
Speaker 1: literally with his forehead on the seat that guy like

998
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:25,600
Speaker 1: he really and then dead asleep. And so I did

999
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,799
Speaker 1: what any friend would do. I woke him up and

1000
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:31,240
Speaker 1: said sorry and kept moving up. He was dead asleep

1001
00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:34,200
Speaker 1: like that, and he looks up and go, oh, are

1002
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:35,759
Speaker 1: you sleeping? And he looks at me, and I just

1003
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: kept walking. I struggled to sleep on planes. And it

1004
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,120
Speaker 1: was a harrowing lead up to getting into the air

1005
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 1: for you to wake me up, like you know that?

1006
00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:47,200
Speaker 1: Just again, that was that was cruel. I have to

1007
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:50,480
Speaker 1: s one question. Are you more annoyed that he was

1008
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 1: put into first class to begin with or that you weren't.

1009
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 1: I can't tell if this is a status issue with

1010
00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:58,560
Speaker 1: him or you that it's. First of all, there was

1011
00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:01,080
Speaker 1: only one this is a plane. It was the only

1012
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:04,359
Speaker 1: direct flight from l A to Indianapolis. He was the

1013
00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:08,720
Speaker 1: only NFL media personnel in first class. And I'm talking

1014
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:12,240
Speaker 1: there are higher higher ups in the shadowy league figure

1015
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 1: sector that we're in. Yeah, but I measure higher ups

1016
00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 1: by that paycheck. And we don't have any reporting on this,

1017
00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:21,680
Speaker 1: but we know that an NFL team, we know multiple

1018
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,719
Speaker 1: NFL teams came after this guy a few years ago

1019
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 1: to work in that front office. So it's not business

1020
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:30,920
Speaker 1: because we can I can transition this writers for the

1021
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,959
Speaker 1: combine with this answer, because having been on the road

1022
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:37,000
Speaker 1: as a scout for eight years and having been in

1023
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 1: cars driving straight from Boise, Idaho, back home to southern California,

1024
00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: driving out to El Paso, and then being stuck on

1025
00:53:44,719 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 1: Great Company Southwest flights but in in not necessarily the

1026
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:50,799
Speaker 1: best position on some of those Southwest flights. When I

1027
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,760
Speaker 1: had the first opportunity to redo my contract at the Network,

1028
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,160
Speaker 1: I my agent said, okay, this is kind of what

1029
00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 1: we're looking at it. I said, look, I just want

1030
00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:02,400
Speaker 1: for class. Like, if you can just get first class

1031
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,239
Speaker 1: in the contract, I don't even just you fear the

1032
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:05,880
Speaker 1: rest of it out. But that's that was the one

1033
00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:07,839
Speaker 1: thing I fought from. We're in a labor dispute right now.

1034
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:10,120
Speaker 1: I died on the hill of I will have first

1035
00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:14,440
Speaker 1: class after all those Hampton end stays and uncomfortable drives

1036
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 1: and nothing gets Hampton ends but lovely established of the corporations.

1037
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 1: Are you gonna you know hand little cookies too? Mark?

1038
00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:24,840
Speaker 1: To answer your question, no issues with the first class. Ultimately,

1039
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 1: it was the smart and it was the lean over,

1040
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:30,879
Speaker 1: and hey, look at me so you thought while he

1041
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:34,400
Speaker 1: was speaking to McVeigh, Yeah, he's somewhat paying attention to

1042
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 1: one of the more interesting offensive minds in the league,

1043
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,760
Speaker 1: but he's mostly just thinking about how does this impact

1044
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:43,240
Speaker 1: Dan Hansas. Yeah, I would say I had to pretend

1045
00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 1: that I couldn't hear coach the entire flight, so I

1046
00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: could lean in closer and just look back and over

1047
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:50,880
Speaker 1: my shoulder and not come on, alright, we we should

1048
00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:54,520
Speaker 1: talk some football with you, because, uh, to be serious,

1049
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:57,120
Speaker 1: to be serious for a second, you are one of

1050
00:54:57,160 --> 00:54:59,480
Speaker 1: the biggest names at this event now, which is cool

1051
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,960
Speaker 1: bec as certain people. We've been at the company long

1052
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:07,080
Speaker 1: enough where I remember when Move the Sticks was a

1053
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:09,960
Speaker 1: guy kind of you know, on the rise a little bit.

1054
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:13,239
Speaker 1: But now you've reached this place where people are are

1055
00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:15,440
Speaker 1: seeking you out, they want you at all times, And

1056
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:17,319
Speaker 1: I just want to ask one question, just for we

1057
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:20,680
Speaker 1: get into some prospect talk. Do you think do you

1058
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 1: sense coaches, GMS, other high ranking league personnel some kissing

1059
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:28,400
Speaker 1: up to Daniel Jeremiah at this stage of your career

1060
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,359
Speaker 1: now that you've hit this level. I know I would

1061
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 1: say a lot of that, but I'll tell you there's

1062
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,359
Speaker 1: surreal moments because you know a lot of these guys

1063
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:37,080
Speaker 1: from haven't worked with them in different teams, and you've

1064
00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,440
Speaker 1: got your friends in the league. But it's it's still

1065
00:55:39,600 --> 00:55:41,399
Speaker 1: I can remember this is kind of a weird story

1066
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 1: about three years ago. Down there in that concourse, we

1067
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:46,560
Speaker 1: were in between drills or something. I had a little break,

1068
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:50,040
Speaker 1: so I went to the restroom and uh, Jason Garrett

1069
00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: walked in at the time coach of the Cowboys and

1070
00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:54,719
Speaker 1: said and called me by name, and I just remember being,

1071
00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:56,399
Speaker 1: you know, somebody who grew up was a Cowboy fan

1072
00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:58,279
Speaker 1: growing I was a kid, and I was like the

1073
00:55:58,280 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 1: head coach of the Cowboys. Kind of no, it's just

1074
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 1: it was a weird moment. And then I thought, you know,

1075
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:03,840
Speaker 1: I'm I should probably go to the bathroom. This is

1076
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 1: this is this is really a bizarre situation. But Lapping Daniel, Daniel,

1077
00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:13,120
Speaker 1: we heard this up here. We gotta go, we gotta go.

1078
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:16,000
Speaker 1: You were on Good Morning Football this morning. I checked

1079
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:19,560
Speaker 1: that out. Thought it was interesting because of course Joe

1080
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,719
Speaker 1: Burrow is what everyone is talking about at the quarterback position,

1081
00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:26,240
Speaker 1: and you actually had a chance to to check him out,

1082
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:29,120
Speaker 1: and you, uh, you watched him work out, You spoke

1083
00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:33,000
Speaker 1: with him, and you think this dude is real deal,

1084
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:37,360
Speaker 1: holy field star, potential superstar, right, Well, yeah, he just

1085
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:39,319
Speaker 1: doesn't have a huge arm. Like you say, what's right

1086
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:40,799
Speaker 1: with him? And I can go on the laundry list

1087
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:42,239
Speaker 1: of things that are went right with him. And he's

1088
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 1: got the best pocket awareness of anybody that I've seen,

1089
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 1: just his comfort and feel inside the pocket. He's got

1090
00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:50,560
Speaker 1: this his superpowers, his vision, and they did a nice

1091
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,319
Speaker 1: job and we talked about it of usually just five

1092
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:55,319
Speaker 1: man protection, get everybody out into the route, and this

1093
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,680
Speaker 1: guy can see the entire field, where so much in

1094
00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,400
Speaker 1: college football you depending on the safety if they're in

1095
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,279
Speaker 1: a single higher two high, look you work one side

1096
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:04,239
Speaker 1: or the other. This guy can take a snapshot of

1097
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 1: the whole field and if you have if you have

1098
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 1: a breakdown in coverage, he's gonna find it right now.

1099
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 1: So his his his pocket awareness, his vision, and then

1100
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:14,320
Speaker 1: his ability to accurately throw the football, they're off the

1101
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,480
Speaker 1: charts now, he doesn't. I watched him work out with

1102
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 1: Sam Donald, who's got a little bit stronger arm than him.

1103
00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 1: Josh Allen's got a lot stronger arm than him, who

1104
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 1: was out there's got a huge arm. Kyle Allen was

1105
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:26,120
Speaker 1: out there as well. Um, so he's not gonna, you know,

1106
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:29,000
Speaker 1: to use Jordan Palmer's phrase, he's not a driving range quarterback.

1107
00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 1: You're not gonna go out to the driving range and

1108
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 1: watch his kids throw and be like wow, Buddy said,

1109
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:34,640
Speaker 1: he's gonna shoot sixty eight once once you get on

1110
00:57:34,640 --> 00:57:36,560
Speaker 1: the course, and that's kind of who he is. Well,

1111
00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:39,720
Speaker 1: you know, we we are kind of plug out of

1112
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 1: college football during the season and we're not paying attention.

1113
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 1: So trade us like newbs. When I asked this question

1114
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 1: something like, what's the difference between Henry Ruggs and Jerry Judy.

1115
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:52,400
Speaker 1: So Jerry Judy is a more polished route runner, Um,

1116
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:54,240
Speaker 1: a little bit better in his release, a little bit

1117
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:55,640
Speaker 1: better at the top of his route when he has

1118
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 1: to work and get back downhill. Ruggs is ridiculously explosive.

1119
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:02,080
Speaker 1: He more than lithly gonna be the fastest player here.

1120
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 1: Ruggs got better hands, which is unusual. Normally you marry

1121
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 1: the speed and that those type of guys. Traditionally you

1122
00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:11,320
Speaker 1: sacrifice some of the hands you think of like Phod Perriman,

1123
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 1: some of those type of players. Ted Gin another example.

1124
00:58:13,880 --> 00:58:16,520
Speaker 1: This guy has that level of speed. He dropped one

1125
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 1: ball last year, so he's got great hands. Hes just

1126
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:22,240
Speaker 1: not as refined as a route runner. But you've seen it,

1127
00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:24,040
Speaker 1: you know, you look at Tyreek Hill. That's gonna be

1128
00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 1: the template for him of ways to get him the

1129
00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:29,040
Speaker 1: football right now. And we we had a chance to

1130
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,720
Speaker 1: talk to Chris Ballard earlier today and he was mentioning

1131
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 1: how that was. Tyreek Hill's initial role was the Deebo

1132
00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:38,040
Speaker 1: Samuel role for the forty Niners. It's only grown and

1133
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:40,880
Speaker 1: evolved into him being you know that every down wide receiver,

1134
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 1: run every route on the tree. He's got a Paris

1135
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:44,920
Speaker 1: Campbell who's And I mentioned that to him, and I

1136
00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 1: said that you can use parents in that debo role.

1137
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: You know, I gotta keep him healthy and get him

1138
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:51,520
Speaker 1: out there. But um, to me, that's what you get

1139
00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 1: with rugs. And I said, it's a three man race

1140
00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:55,640
Speaker 1: to be the first receiver. I think everybody's kind of

1141
00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 1: made it a judy versus lamb um. I think when you,

1142
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 1: especially teams with defensive head coaches, will they feel that speed?

1143
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 1: You know? And and I see the Chiefs a couple

1144
00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:07,360
Speaker 1: of times a year and watch them in person, and

1145
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,320
Speaker 1: you obviously you see it on TV. But man, when

1146
00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:11,439
Speaker 1: you're in the stadium with Tyreek kill like you, it's

1147
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 1: just like whoa like you? You feel like his speed

1148
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 1: won them the super Bowl. That third and fifteen plays

1149
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:18,280
Speaker 1: unbelievable play by my home, but gosh, he's open my

1150
00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:20,440
Speaker 1: fifteen yards because he puts the fear of God in

1151
00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:23,240
Speaker 1: the safety and wheels him around. So um, That's why

1152
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 1: I think Rugs is very much in this thing to

1153
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:26,280
Speaker 1: be the first Where do you think the three of

1154
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:29,480
Speaker 1: them go? Ultimately? I think all three of them end

1155
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:31,440
Speaker 1: up going on the top fift team. I would I

1156
00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 1: would feel pretty good about that. Now. The only thing

1157
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 1: you'd say is the teams that need um that haven't

1158
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:40,080
Speaker 1: need to tackle and receiver, they'd be smart to go

1159
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 1: get the tackle now because I think there's a handful

1160
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,000
Speaker 1: of really good tackles. And then after that it starts

1161
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,080
Speaker 1: to drop off. Whereas receiver, second, third round, you're still

1162
00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 1: gonna get quality players you worked in front office is

1163
00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 1: obviously that. Did you see the thing with Judy today

1164
00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:56,040
Speaker 1: with him having the star of David? Is that in

1165
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:59,360
Speaker 1: in uh? And he said it was because the pronunciation

1166
00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:02,320
Speaker 1: of his last is that something that would raise alarm

1167
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,840
Speaker 1: bells ahead of the pre draft process or here at

1168
01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,560
Speaker 1: the combine. I mean, I I just it was just

1169
01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,320
Speaker 1: it was just odd. You know. I don't know how

1170
01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:13,360
Speaker 1: else to say it, but I mean, I don't everything

1171
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 1: I've heard about the kid at school. You know, he's

1172
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:16,640
Speaker 1: a good kid, and it's just kind of a it's

1173
01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 1: an interesting decision. I leave it at that. Um, but

1174
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:22,120
Speaker 1: he's you know, he's character wized. He's supposed to be

1175
01:00:22,960 --> 01:00:27,000
Speaker 1: really solid. Dive deeper into the star of David necklaces

1176
01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:31,080
Speaker 1: deep there. Uh No, it was just it was bizarre.

1177
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:33,040
Speaker 1: I just put it that way. I've never caught me off.

1178
01:00:33,040 --> 01:00:35,080
Speaker 1: I mean, but is that like, is that a question

1179
01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 1: during the combine seventeen minutes or whatever. Yeah, but I

1180
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:43,000
Speaker 1: think there's there's no malice or anything, and it's just

1181
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:47,360
Speaker 1: kind of an innocent, interesting odd choice. Yeah. We all,

1182
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:50,520
Speaker 1: we all make god fashion choices. We've got Mark Cessler

1183
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:55,160
Speaker 1: over here. My son has those shoes too, Ceessler. That

1184
01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:58,680
Speaker 1: was uncalled for. He's a very fashionable sixteen year old boy.

1185
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 1: And I don't want to ask you because I think

1186
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:02,600
Speaker 1: you've noticed I've hit you up a few times because

1187
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:04,880
Speaker 1: I've been doing a little I've been doing a little

1188
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:06,840
Speaker 1: bit of tape study on some of these college players

1189
01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: myself put a few tweets out there, you know, and

1190
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,680
Speaker 1: I one thing that I suffer from even when I watch,

1191
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:13,760
Speaker 1: you know, game pass in the room is it's it's

1192
01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:16,880
Speaker 1: it's a darkened room, a hushed room. Maybe you're watching

1193
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:19,160
Speaker 1: All twenty two as I like to do a lot,

1194
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:21,920
Speaker 1: and suddenly you start to maybe doze off a little bit.

1195
01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:24,600
Speaker 1: Do you would you admit to ever watching some of

1196
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,920
Speaker 1: these distant like Iowa tech Verse, Mississippi, Uh, ladies, you

1197
01:01:29,040 --> 01:01:31,040
Speaker 1: or whatever, and they're playing each other and you're in

1198
01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:33,840
Speaker 1: like quarter three and just thinking, I'm struggling to stay

1199
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 1: awake during this or is it all gripping to you

1200
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 1: all the time? I will go, uh, Usually it gets

1201
01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:41,080
Speaker 1: to the some lineman, especially when you get to down

1202
01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:42,880
Speaker 1: the line linemen, and I like to do them by positions.

1203
01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:45,200
Speaker 1: So when I'm watching these guys, like literally you'll spend

1204
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 1: three days watching offensive linemen. So at some point in time,

1205
01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 1: you know, obviously you do the better players early on

1206
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:52,840
Speaker 1: that you know about, so you can go a stretcher.

1207
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:55,400
Speaker 1: You're just seeing crappy player after crappy player after crappy player.

1208
01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 1: So I will go second screen and I will go

1209
01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,160
Speaker 1: like on a like a YouTube rabbit hole of you

1210
01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:03,400
Speaker 1: know stuff. So I've just got this going on and

1211
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:05,760
Speaker 1: kind of like keeping an eye over here. Um, you

1212
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 1: can kind of binge wash a show like why You've

1213
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 1: got your lower level of he's got like Joda see

1214
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 1: in the background, you like you know this this year

1215
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:18,120
Speaker 1: what's got me is, yeah, there's nothing wrong Raven Simone.

1216
01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 1: I don't know why you would say that as some

1217
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 1: kind of a cutdown. There's nothing wrong with that show.

1218
01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:26,400
Speaker 1: Wizards of Waverley placement maybe, um, but to me, when

1219
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:30,080
Speaker 1: you when you uh, when I'm watching tape, it's normally

1220
01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:32,680
Speaker 1: I've got the nineties R and B is on Pandora's

1221
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:34,560
Speaker 1: kind of my go to. But this year a lot

1222
01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:36,800
Speaker 1: of people we bought the you guys have a room

1223
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 1: ba Yeah, so I never know, I never asked people

1224
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:42,760
Speaker 1: have them? Yes, yeah, I never know. My wife's gonna

1225
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:45,200
Speaker 1: launch that thing like it's like a spacecraft that takes

1226
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:47,440
Speaker 1: off from its home dock and goes and vacuums your

1227
01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:49,680
Speaker 1: whole house. So a lot of times I'm doing a

1228
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:51,720
Speaker 1: video of a player in that room was going around,

1229
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:53,640
Speaker 1: and so a lot of people on Twitter think I'm

1230
01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:57,400
Speaker 1: vacuuming while I'm watching. I'm not gonna tell if I'm

1231
01:02:57,440 --> 01:03:01,040
Speaker 1: not technically the house, the carpet getting vacuumed, and I'm

1232
01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:03,360
Speaker 1: watching tape. So I'm not going to dispute that. What's

1233
01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:06,440
Speaker 1: like a position group? We're all hearing this is a

1234
01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:09,080
Speaker 1: great wide receiver year. What is the position group that

1235
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:12,320
Speaker 1: if a team is needing a certain position that they're

1236
01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:13,760
Speaker 1: in a little bit of trouble in this draft that

1237
01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:16,120
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of blue chip talent. Well, I

1238
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 1: don't think there's a first round interior offensive lineman. You know,

1239
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,440
Speaker 1: I have I have works from Iowa who played tackle.

1240
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:23,720
Speaker 1: I think he can be an all Pro guard, but

1241
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:25,160
Speaker 1: you know, a lot of teams will have him listed

1242
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:27,000
Speaker 1: as a tackle. So I don't have a you know,

1243
01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:30,200
Speaker 1: top thirty two player that's an interior alignment. So that's

1244
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 1: a little bit thin tight end. I don't have a

1245
01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 1: tight end that's worth a first round pick, which is

1246
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,440
Speaker 1: you know, unusual. So those I think there's decent depth.

1247
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,920
Speaker 1: You get good players, but there's no you know, premier,

1248
01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:42,480
Speaker 1: premier guys. So those would be a couple of positions

1249
01:03:42,520 --> 01:03:44,080
Speaker 1: I'd say a little bit thin, give it. Give us

1250
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:48,240
Speaker 1: a quarterback not to uh or Joe Burrow that you

1251
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:51,280
Speaker 1: like more than more than other people and why and

1252
01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:53,360
Speaker 1: and then maybe someone you don't like that much or

1253
01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:55,760
Speaker 1: that you don't think it's gonna that maybe gets overdrafted

1254
01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 1: their quarterbacks. I actually like a Day three pick. So

1255
01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 1: we're talking now, maybe in like the fifth round. Um,

1256
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:05,040
Speaker 1: his kid named James Morgan out of Florida International. He

1257
01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 1: went down to the East West Game, was the best

1258
01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:09,760
Speaker 1: quarterback down there, which is kind of that second tier

1259
01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:12,320
Speaker 1: All Star game. But he's six four, he's like two,

1260
01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 1: he's got a strong arm. He was playing through a knee,

1261
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:17,840
Speaker 1: so he wasn't totally healthy. Um. But to me, like

1262
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 1: you're trying to find guys with some traits on day

1263
01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:22,040
Speaker 1: three that have a chance to be a starter. Um,

1264
01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:24,120
Speaker 1: he's one of those guys. And then I'm fascinating with

1265
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:26,560
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts to see when he goes. Um, you know,

1266
01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:29,200
Speaker 1: haven't spent time at Alabama, been at Oklahoma. Guys won

1267
01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:31,200
Speaker 1: a lot of football games. He can really move around

1268
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:33,560
Speaker 1: and make plays. He just doesn't really throw with a

1269
01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:36,960
Speaker 1: lot of anticipation. Um, you know, there's some vision things,

1270
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:38,919
Speaker 1: as much as I love Joe Burrow's vision, Like that's

1271
01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:41,600
Speaker 1: an issue with Hurts, But the way the games played

1272
01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:43,160
Speaker 1: right now, where you get a guy that can create

1273
01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:45,160
Speaker 1: some plays with his legs, He's got a strong arm,

1274
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:47,640
Speaker 1: he can make every throw. I could see somebody saying,

1275
01:04:47,640 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 1: you know, we kind of build a little bit around him.

1276
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:51,400
Speaker 1: I was I was talking to a team that's set

1277
01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:53,960
Speaker 1: at the quarterback position, but they were looking at him

1278
01:04:54,040 --> 01:04:57,080
Speaker 1: in that Taysom Hill type of a role. Um. There's

1279
01:04:57,120 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 1: that's the interesting thing, like the copycat players this year.

1280
01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:01,439
Speaker 1: If you're trying to say, like who we're trying to find, Um,

1281
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 1: some people trying to find Taysom Hill. A lot of

1282
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,200
Speaker 1: people trying to focus on that type of a role.

1283
01:05:05,520 --> 01:05:07,360
Speaker 1: And you've got teams trying to find their Deebo Stamuel.

1284
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:09,120
Speaker 1: Somebody can line up in the backfield or be in

1285
01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:12,520
Speaker 1: the slot, and then um, you look on the defensive

1286
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 1: side of the ball. Um. You know, obviously during with

1287
01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:18,280
Speaker 1: Jameson gonna come around very often, but finding those safeties

1288
01:05:18,320 --> 01:05:20,040
Speaker 1: that you could play at linebacker, you know, you can

1289
01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:23,760
Speaker 1: do different things and just um to use McVeigh who

1290
01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:24,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if I told you. I was sitting

1291
01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,760
Speaker 1: next to him in first class, great conversation, and one

1292
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:30,120
Speaker 1: of the things he talked about was, you know when

1293
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:32,320
Speaker 1: they match you personnel wise, like the Ravens are a

1294
01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:35,040
Speaker 1: great example where that you can't be right because with

1295
01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 1: all those tight ends out there, you go big to

1296
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:38,800
Speaker 1: match them, they're gonna split everybody out and there gonn

1297
01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:40,439
Speaker 1: let those tight ends run by you. You go small

1298
01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:41,960
Speaker 1: to cover them, They're gonna bring them in. They're gonna

1299
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:44,120
Speaker 1: run the ball down your throat um. So trying to

1300
01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:46,000
Speaker 1: find those guys that can do those different things is

1301
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:47,720
Speaker 1: what everybodys trying we at the time of year, because

1302
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:49,439
Speaker 1: you're saying, you don't you know a team out there

1303
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:52,439
Speaker 1: trying to find Taysom Hill two point oh where you're

1304
01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:56,040
Speaker 1: just sitting on loads of explosive information where you want

1305
01:05:56,040 --> 01:05:58,080

Speaker 1: the doctor after the thing, so you know you're knocked out.

1325
01:06:56,160 --> 01:06:59,000
Speaker 1: So I get in the car obviously remember that. We

01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:08,240
Speaker 1: You talked to him for ten minutes, And I go,

1330
01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:11,000
Speaker 1: what he's like? He told you what you need to do?

1331
01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:12,720
Speaker 1: But I said, what did I say to him? He goes,

1332
01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:15,160

1335
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:27,240
Speaker 1: with life noing that for months. Um, that's awesome. Let's

1336
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:30,640
Speaker 1: say goodbye to Mr Jeremiah, but before we do, checking

1337
01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:33,320
Speaker 1: in on his an NFL I guess it was a

1338
01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:37,360
Speaker 1: Reddit type thing. Asked me anything conversation. Uh. Someone asked

1339
01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:40,560
Speaker 1: to rank the members of the Around the NFL podcast.

1340
01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:44,320
Speaker 1: This was your response. I've heard Colleen Wolfe is on

1341
01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:47,640
Speaker 1: there a lot, so she's number one. Erica is technically eligible,

1342
01:07:47,920 --> 01:07:51,480
Speaker 1: so she's number two. After that, Westling, Sessler, and the

1343
01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:56,439
Speaker 1: rest would be listed in others. Don't hate it, don't

1344
01:07:56,440 --> 01:08:00,120
Speaker 1: hate find the lie. I mean if I was, if

1345
01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 1: I was Eric or you guys, I would almost be

1346
01:08:02,080 --> 01:08:04,680
Speaker 1: insulted because he's playing this whole game where we know

1347
01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:07,760
Speaker 1: what game he's playing, you know what I mean, I

1348
01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: don't know the two of you. It's sort of this.

1349
01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:14,080
Speaker 1: It's sort of this like you know, reverse psychology thing,

1350
01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:16,680
Speaker 1: so it lets you actually know who he's threatened by,

1351
01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:26,920
Speaker 1: who he you know, respects who. It's very interesting. You

1352
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:28,560
Speaker 1: know what about the other one? Because I got I

1353
01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 1: got two A t N questions in the hour Reddit

1354
01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:33,200
Speaker 1: they to E t N questions, did you see the

1355
01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:35,559
Speaker 1: other one? No, I I missed. I missed it. Actually,

1356
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:38,519
Speaker 1: I think the other one was where would you ran

1357
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:43,080
Speaker 1: Dan Hans in an NFL media draft? Where would you

1358
01:08:43,120 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 1: take him in an NFL media draft? And I said

1359
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 1: I would take him in the first round, and they

1360
01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 1: said really, I said yes, because nothing would bring me

1361
01:08:50,400 --> 01:08:53,840
Speaker 1: more joy than to treat him with some networking Canada.

1362
01:08:54,760 --> 01:08:58,120
Speaker 1: The other shoe drops Daniel Jeremy. You know where to

1363
01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:00,840
Speaker 1: find him. He's that moved the stacks. He has a

1429
01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:08,439
Speaker 1: not something you want to like hear a million times. Well,

1430
01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:11,679
Speaker 1: like now that comment right there, it's like there's someone

1431
01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:15,840
Speaker 1: out there in like Central Tennessee that's spent like twenty

1432
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,360
Speaker 1: five hours putting that together. I mean, their whole heart

1433
01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:20,479
Speaker 1: and soul has been put into it. And Greg just

1434
01:13:20,560 --> 01:13:24,759
Speaker 1: with one like five letters cent five just destroys the person.

1435
01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:26,920
Speaker 1: I mean, it's fine, it was I mean, they're gonna

1436
01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:29,720
Speaker 1: be wondering why they didn't make the finals and what

1437
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:32,799
Speaker 1: they can do to improve for cutting analysis, Hey, Simon

1438
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:34,759
Speaker 1: cow is the engine that makes the show go. Greg's

1439
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:38,040
Speaker 1: got to play that role, alright, somebody's gotta be a

1440
01:13:38,080 --> 01:13:40,479
Speaker 1: bad guy. And uh, I thought it was very nice.

1441
01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:43,519
Speaker 1: Entry don't know if it makes the finals, but thank

1442
01:13:43,560 --> 01:14:00,479
Speaker 1: you to whoever sent that in up next Ricky shot

1443
01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:17,920
Speaker 1: she's got about TV at least one she grew up. Yeah, okay,

1444
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,519
Speaker 1: that was like a little billy jolly it was. I

1445
01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:23,479
Speaker 1: liked it, and it also was here's the only thing

1446
01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:26,599
Speaker 1: that's gonna work against this, gentleman. I know you can't

1447
01:14:26,600 --> 01:14:31,320
Speaker 1: say anything critical. Go ahead. One thing that has surprised

1448
01:14:31,400 --> 01:14:35,200
Speaker 1: me is the level of production. Uh. And a lot

1449
01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:39,000
Speaker 1: of these songs and Alex Mack has gone into making

1450
01:14:39,040 --> 01:14:40,720
Speaker 1: them sound like songs you would almost hear on the

1451
01:14:40,840 --> 01:14:45,160
Speaker 1: radio or from a commercial or radio jingle. And I

1452
01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 1: really love the song structure and the melody and the songwriting,

1453
01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:52,680
Speaker 1: but it didn't have more of a demo feel to it.

1454
01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:57,200
Speaker 1: And what we're looking for is a finished product. Like

1455
01:14:57,240 --> 01:15:00,920
Speaker 1: I would almost say, like, what does that guy? Would

1456
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,439
Speaker 1: he be a guy that I would you know, say, hey,

1457
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:05,400
Speaker 1: do you want to take another crack at it and

1458
01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:08,120
Speaker 1: maybe put some bells and whistles on it and really

1459
01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,720
Speaker 1: produce it. Because I loved the melody I have to

1460
01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:13,479
Speaker 1: it was simple. I wonder if he played the piano

1461
01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:16,479
Speaker 1: himself to do it, like I know the way I

1462
01:15:16,600 --> 01:15:19,880
Speaker 1: mark a good song is doesn't make me bob my

1463
01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:22,599
Speaker 1: head am I am I going with the beat here,

1464
01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:24,760
Speaker 1: and that's what I did with this sound the song.

1465
01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:27,400
Speaker 1: It was a little jaunty, which I liked. I like

1466
01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:30,559
Speaker 1: a jaunty tune and I was a fan. I thought

1467
01:15:30,560 --> 01:15:33,400
Speaker 1: it sounded good. He could make a cleaner one. It

1468
01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 1: also is a little different than the ones that have

1469
01:15:35,400 --> 01:15:39,160
Speaker 1: made our finals. I thought it was delightful. Yeah, I

1470
01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:42,240
Speaker 1: would say I quite enjoy it. Submitted a second one

1471
01:15:42,280 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 1: with it. It was a little bit when we're on

1472
01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:47,360
Speaker 1: these headsets, a little bit raw sound wise, but I

1473
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:49,400
Speaker 1: wanted to take another shot at that. I loved it.

1474
01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:52,080
Speaker 1: Sound like a demo, but a very promising demo. And

1475
01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:55,040
Speaker 1: will that be enough to get that person into the finals?

1476
01:15:55,120 --> 01:16:30,200
Speaker 1: We'll find out. I think so Erica number three that

1477
01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:33,400
Speaker 1: was very produced, very produced, that was very like N E.

1478
01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:38,280
Speaker 1: R D. Like Neptunes early. I was a little mid

1479
01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:41,439
Speaker 1: to late period justin Timberlake there. Sure you pick up

1480
01:16:41,439 --> 01:16:44,759
Speaker 1: on that red same producer shaking her head, are nodding

1481
01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:48,479
Speaker 1: her head. I like that that that that was a

1482
01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:51,000
Speaker 1: fun one. It was a little different though it was

1483
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:53,600
Speaker 1: very different was the second one. The second one I

1484
01:16:53,720 --> 01:16:56,599
Speaker 1: just thought was it was kind of bad, but it

1485
01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:58,479
Speaker 1: was good, like I liked it because it was I

1486
01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:04,080
Speaker 1: feel like Colleen's voice in should count like Trip of Us. Absolutely.

1487
01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:06,680
Speaker 1: I do like to hear the lyrics. I think that's

1488
01:17:06,680 --> 01:17:08,559
Speaker 1: a fun part of it. I couldn't hear it as well. There.

1489
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:10,800
Speaker 1: It was hard to decipher. I like to beat. You

1490
01:17:10,840 --> 01:17:13,200
Speaker 1: couldn't decipher the words as much. It was like a

1491
01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:15,880
Speaker 1: cool and edgier version though, which I liked. I like

1492
01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:21,160
Speaker 1: that we've had problem, but that that is not the

1493
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:26,160
Speaker 1: measure of you as a woman. Don't worry about measure

1494
01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:32,280
Speaker 1: myself as a woman. Um. I have been really impressed.

1495
01:17:32,320 --> 01:17:35,040
Speaker 1: We didn't answer her questions. I'm thinking about it. She

1496
01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:38,360
Speaker 1: kind of got me. Um. I've been really impressed with

1497
01:17:38,400 --> 01:17:45,040
Speaker 1: the varied genres you have, the songs that was produced beautifully. Okay,

1498
01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:47,400
Speaker 1: how many do we have another one? Come on? Okay,

1499
01:17:47,400 --> 01:18:19,160
Speaker 1: go ahead, and next that's that's a little bit of

1500
01:18:19,160 --> 01:18:22,200
Speaker 1: a jazzy element there. That was like a dinner jazz

1501
01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:25,320
Speaker 1: and it had a little bit of a Nina Simon field.

1502
01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 1: I felt like I was in a like underground like

1503
01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:35,360
Speaker 1: jazz lounge. I had to go downstairs. It was red

1504
01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:38,880
Speaker 1: like yes, exactly. I feel like I've inappropriately hushed Greg.

1505
01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:42,240
Speaker 1: Who I something is public this one. Yeah, let's come down.

1506
01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:46,920
Speaker 1: Let's come down with Nina Simone here there was like

1507
01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:50,400
Speaker 1: late you know, yeah, this is like what happened to

1508
01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:56,120
Speaker 1: Nina Simone. Nina Simone. The jazz element though, it speaks

1509
01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:59,880
Speaker 1: to my washed up socialite type routine. And I like that.

1510
01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:02,680
Speaker 1: We gotta get We have to get Greg in like

1511
01:19:02,720 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 1: a skin tight white T shirt where you could see

1512
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:07,960
Speaker 1: his nipples, like Simon Cowell like, we gotta get He's

1513
01:19:07,960 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 1: gotta go full cowl. You know. I have been thinking

1514
01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:16,280
Speaker 1: about getting like years and years of plastic surgery so

1515
01:19:16,360 --> 01:19:18,559
Speaker 1: that I have a like I got a half monster,

1516
01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:23,960
Speaker 1: half man really keep people off balance. All right, that

1517
01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:59,479
Speaker 1: was a interesting one, Conny, and please go aheads wo

1518
01:20:01,439 --> 01:20:03,880
Speaker 1: first eight seconds where maybe some of my favorite stuff.

1519
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:06,439
Speaker 1: Yeah that is was that on the last arcade Fire

1520
01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:10,400
Speaker 1: Up Now. That was that was very Benfolds Benfolds Rocking

1521
01:20:10,479 --> 01:20:14,360
Speaker 1: the Suburbs era. That was great. It started and it

1522
01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:17,200
Speaker 1: felt like something we would be playing at, like a Westlemania.

1523
01:20:17,640 --> 01:20:19,280
Speaker 1: And then it took a little bit of a turn.

1524
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:23,000
Speaker 1: There were some lyrics that seemed to yeah, didn't keep

1525
01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:27,400
Speaker 1: it a little unfinished lyrically, little noisy, but we all

1526
01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:30,200
Speaker 1: got really excited when the first the first seven eight

1527
01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:32,599
Speaker 1: seconds were great. I think it was fun. It made

1528
01:20:32,600 --> 01:20:37,760
Speaker 1: me feel something. Yeah, okay, one more. Alright, Well, let's

1529
01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:39,960
Speaker 1: let's we're gonna go a song by song at this point,

1530
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:51,240
Speaker 1: you know, let's let's see where're at next up. Connie's here,

1531
01:20:53,520 --> 01:21:14,679
Speaker 1: She's gonna piece it all together for us. Finally, Oh

1532
01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:19,080
Speaker 1: I love it is a very um mark. How long

1533
01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:21,240
Speaker 1: did it take you to write that? I want to

1534
01:21:22,040 --> 01:21:23,760
Speaker 1: last night when we were out at this like she

1535
01:21:23,920 --> 01:21:27,040
Speaker 1: she steak bar thing, I at one point talk to

1536
01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:29,800
Speaker 1: Connie and she was just like, I don't do small talk,

1537
01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:31,840
Speaker 1: and you were legit kind of panicking, and like, I

1538
01:21:31,880 --> 01:21:35,760
Speaker 1: think that song kind of captured that great non egotistical

1539
01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:39,280
Speaker 1: essence essence of Connie where it's like awkwardness rules sometimes

1540
01:21:39,280 --> 01:21:41,960
Speaker 1: and that song hit it. I loved that. Yeah, that

1541
01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:46,479
Speaker 1: was that was a finalist, a puzzle mark. You hit

1542
01:21:46,560 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 1: it so well. That was so well put because Colleen's

1543
01:21:50,360 --> 01:21:53,719
Speaker 1: personality was captured within those thirty seconds. The horn coming

1544
01:21:53,760 --> 01:21:56,960
Speaker 1: in with a steak surprise. I mean that was a band. Yeah,

1545
01:21:57,840 --> 01:22:00,880
Speaker 1: sort of had it like an eighties TV theme show vibes,

1546
01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:04,080
Speaker 1: And one thing I understood was that this is an

1547
01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:06,920
Speaker 1: intro to Colleen coming on the show, which I do

1548
01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:09,320
Speaker 1: think is is a plus. It's like some of them,

1549
01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:13,360
Speaker 1: some of them aren't necessary, like here she comes that

1550
01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:15,599
Speaker 1: one did. Yeah, I think we're senting that on straight

1551
01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:18,800
Speaker 1: to the final Yeah, congratulations to whoever that is. Let's

1552
01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:21,240
Speaker 1: listen to one more, one more, there we go. Hold

1553
01:22:21,240 --> 01:22:25,599
Speaker 1: that the wolf outside, it's Fox. Don't look now, boys, box,

1554
01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:28,760
Speaker 1: Oh she's just face up. That work got my boy,

1555
01:22:28,800 --> 01:22:33,880
Speaker 1: I look at the work fake. She wants all the fame,

1556
01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:36,559
Speaker 1: but look at her maid y'all. This girl's fot she

1557
01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:41,200
Speaker 1: ain't no promo and eagle at heart, just like Gonzo Gonzo,

1558
01:22:42,479 --> 01:22:51,640
Speaker 1: He's gonna be gone, Bros. It's cock Fox. Did he

1559
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:55,400
Speaker 1: just put a hit on my husband? Is god? Bro?

1560
01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:57,840
Speaker 1: And then what happened with Fletcher. I think we need

1561
01:22:57,880 --> 01:23:00,800
Speaker 1: to listen to that again. I don't where it's I

1562
01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:03,559
Speaker 1: don't think. I don't everyone there's yeah, there's a few

1563
01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:06,400
Speaker 1: reasons why they probably can't be the one weird listen.

1564
01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:10,400
Speaker 1: Don't look now, boys, it's Connie Box. Oh, she's just

1565
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:13,599
Speaker 1: the face up to network. My boy. I look at

1566
01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:17,800
Speaker 1: the work with another reason. She wants all the fame.

1567
01:23:17,880 --> 01:23:25,880
Speaker 1: But this girl's eagle at heart, just like Bubble Gonzo Gonzo. Yeah,

1568
01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:33,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna being gone. Bronn Box, never hear Cox. It's

1569
01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:38,040
Speaker 1: cot he said, Gonza is gonna be gone. Bro. Then

1570
01:23:38,080 --> 01:23:40,880
Speaker 1: when with the West he gone. If she ever gets

1571
01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:47,000
Speaker 1: with Fletcher Cox, because she's gonna be Cox. Fox, that's amazing,

1572
01:23:48,600 --> 01:23:53,800
Speaker 1: amazing Fox Cox, that would be your name. That had

1573
01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:56,639
Speaker 1: They had a lot going and there's so much great

1574
01:23:56,680 --> 01:23:59,280
Speaker 1: stuff and really packed a lot. If Mark wrote there

1575
01:23:59,280 --> 01:24:01,320
Speaker 1: at the piano one, I think that would have been mine.

1576
01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:05,759
Speaker 1: That was that was great. He had like three unnecessary shots,

1577
01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:08,840
Speaker 1: ended with like a joke sort of. It was great.

1578
01:24:11,360 --> 01:24:17,000
Speaker 1: Suddenly Gonzo was gone. What happened to John John in

1579
01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:20,599
Speaker 1: this scenario? Cox came in and that was it? Huh

1580
01:24:21,439 --> 01:24:25,439
Speaker 1: was out? Well, that makes you a little uncomfortable obviously

1581
01:24:28,479 --> 01:24:31,439
Speaker 1: and things, but I was I think that was very

1582
01:24:31,600 --> 01:24:33,880
Speaker 1: entertaining for this show. It was great that we got

1583
01:24:33,960 --> 01:24:37,600
Speaker 1: it in there. Yeah. Yes, like I said, just just

1584
01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:39,760
Speaker 1: because the song doesn't win doesn't mean they will not

1585
01:24:39,840 --> 01:24:43,040
Speaker 1: show up again down the line, because what people would

1586
01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:44,880
Speaker 1: I have not made clear in the rules is that

1587
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:48,200
Speaker 1: we now have complete ownership of all these songs, so

1588
01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:51,960
Speaker 1: we reserve the rights to play them in perpetuity if

1589
01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:55,720
Speaker 1: we've solved our music issue. Thank you for doing the

1590
01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:59,400
Speaker 1: work for us. Um, all right, so that is the

1591
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:03,120
Speaker 1: anything you heard. We kind of decided that will be

1592
01:25:03,240 --> 01:25:06,280
Speaker 1: the group that will choose from and then maybe we'll

1593
01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:08,880
Speaker 1: have been an arrow narrow down to five finalists. Yeah,

1594
01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:12,559
Speaker 1: it seems fair. And then um Colleen will figure out

1595
01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:15,320
Speaker 1: a date next Friday. Next Friday, you run, I think, so,

1596
01:25:15,520 --> 01:25:18,880
Speaker 1: all right, well we'll figure that off one but which

1597
01:25:19,040 --> 01:25:21,680
Speaker 1: we're not gonna reveal. Let's let's reveal that on for

1598
01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:24,599
Speaker 1: on that show, because it's a great idea that you had,

1599
01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:27,240
Speaker 1: and I think it could be a home run logistically

1600
01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:29,639
Speaker 1: a little tricky, but a home run if we could

1601
01:25:29,640 --> 01:25:33,439
Speaker 1: pull it out. All right, that's it. This is our

1602
01:25:33,560 --> 01:25:36,599
Speaker 1: last Um, well, now we have one more show coming
