So that's 53 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 4: that's what I've learned.

I 61 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: mean the surname may still have good point. 62 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: The kids may have had run of the house and 63 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: gone a bit nuts. So yeah, you have all of 64 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:02,640 Speaker 1: that going on. 65 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean it's just that point in the 66 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 2: year where we're starting to see the swell starting to 67 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 2: gain that momentum, final throws of the the uh, the 68 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 2: summer season and all those vacations whatever you bring up. 69 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 2: CC Sabathia, because we got the trade deadline is Thursday 70 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 2: as well. I think one of my favorite trade deadline 71 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: acquisitions in the history of man was when CC Sabathia 72 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 2: showed up in Milwaukee and was like Iron Man every Thursday, 73 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 2: every fourth day, throwing one hundred and twenty pitches. 74 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: Just give me the damn ball. I'm gonna will us 75 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: to greatness. 76 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 4: The plan was for him and Ben Sheets to carry 77 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 4: the Brewers' pitching load down the stretch, and then, unfortunately 78 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 4: for Sheets, he got hurt and it was all Sabbathia. 79 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 4: Every third day it was Sabbathia. But the great thing 80 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 4: about it is everybody knew it. Everybody knew what was 81 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 4: at stake, and everybody knew that he wasn't coming back 82 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 4: next year. So it was just all right, let's let's 83 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 4: ride it out, let's do this. And it was pretty magical. 84 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 4: And it's one of those unique stints that you have 85 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 4: that it was only there a couple months, but you'll 86 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 4: remember it. 87 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: Forever because of what transpired. 88 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's those two trade deadline things. 89 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 2: And for me being a Chicago kid, remembering when Rick 90 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 2: Sutcliffe showed up and had that ridiculous run I think 91 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 2: he was sixteen and one with the Cubs in eighty 92 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: four with the run they had, and then Sabbathia that 93 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 2: year used up like a running back on an expiring contract, 94 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 2: every third day, just keep it going, and it became 95 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 2: part of his legend that leads us to today and 96 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 2: his induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame. 97 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 4: And this is the interesting part is now with the 98 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 4: expanded playoffs, Mike, there's different things at stake in Major 99 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 4: League Baseball. But at that time in two thousand and eight, 100 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: the Brewers hadn't been to the playoffs since they went 101 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 4: to the World Series in nineteen eighty two, So it 102 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 4: was just getting to the playoffs was the was the deal. 103 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 4: And it's funny I was even thinking about this morning 104 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 4: and just thinking back on baseball history of how we 105 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 4: looked at the Cubs and how we looked at the 106 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 4: Red Sox with like the Red Sox going to the 107 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 4: World Series wasn't a thing, like they had to win 108 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 4: it because of what happened in eighty six and obviously 109 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 4: they were there in the nineteen seventies, but so then 110 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 4: when that curse ended in two thousand and four, but 111 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 4: even the Cubs just like making the World Series in 112 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 4: twenty sixteen, would have been something. They end up winning 113 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 4: it and then everything is off the board. But there 114 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 4: are so many levels of baseball that I remember in 115 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 4: growing up, and for the Brewers that year was just like, 116 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 4: let's just make the playoffs. Now it's a little bit easier, 117 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 4: more spots for teams to get in, but that's what 118 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 4: was at stake In two thousand and eight. They lost 119 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 4: to the Phillies in the divisional round and that was that, 120 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 4: but still made for a fun final two months of 121 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 4: the season, and I think a lot of teams are 122 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 4: looking for that as that trade deadline near see. 123 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: If they can find lightning in the bottle. 124 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 2: We'll see if the Brewers are active in the marketplace 125 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 2: as well as they battled the Cubs atop the division. 126 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 2: Lots of fun as the week go on. We'll keep 127 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 2: an eye on that. But a name you need to 128 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 2: know Mischkel Raznatovich. Good job, Yeah, I practice Mischkel. 129 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 1: It's the summer now of Lebron James. 130 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: You didn't think he was going to go quietly into 131 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 2: the good night after accepting and opting into a deal 132 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: of nearly fifty three million dollars, did you? 133 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 6: No? 134 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: No, no, no. Mark Stein, who joins us on the network. 135 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 2: I know on the Doug Gottlieb show, you guys have 136 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 2: done to time and Jason Smith and I regular visits 137 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 2: with him on the Steinline on his substack, saying, quote, 138 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 2: Lebron James has genuine curiosity about playing for the Mavericks. 139 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 2: Now it's something we've theorized about, right. He's got a 140 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 2: couple of his old running buddies there, Kyrie Irving coming 141 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: back from injury, Anthony Davis, and then clearly after the 142 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 2: Luka donchis trade anything you can do in the front office, 143 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: Nico Harrison or whatever to make yourself look better and 144 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 2: try to push things over the top. Now that Cooper 145 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: flags arrive, you're gonna do it. And I gotta say 146 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 2: I will. I don't drink much anymore, Dan, I would 147 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 2: pop a forty if this were to come to bear, 148 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 2: just to sit and be entertained by the potential chaos 149 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 2: that would unfold. We'd start setting over unders of how 150 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 2: many games the three of those guys would be able 151 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 2: to play together, how quickly there'd be discord, but all 152 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 2: of it as soon as like if all Lebron James 153 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: had to do was not opt into this deal and 154 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: just say, you know, I have a free agent, I'm 155 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 2: gonna go where I want and instead, well you take 156 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 2: your cash. And now it creates all sorts of issues 157 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: in terms of finding a trade partner, which means this 158 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: just gets to jes State out there for a while. 159 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 2: But it's another great example of all the rest of 160 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: the NBA's run and fine, Luca's building his little team 161 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 2: here Marcus Smart and everybody else saying, yeah, Luca reached 162 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 2: out DeAndre Ay and yeah, Luca reached out you know, 163 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 2: the summer of Luca. So Lebron not going quietly into 164 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 2: the good night, was on a boat and I had 165 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 2: to do a triple check trying to figure out who 166 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 2: the hell some of the principles were, because at first 167 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 2: I thought it was Dean Norris who played Hank Schrader 168 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 2: on Breaking Bad, or maybe it was Steve Bolmer sitting. 169 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,679 Speaker 1: In there in that red red outfit. 170 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: But instead we're talking about being overseas and planning for 171 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 2: the summer ahead. 172 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 4: And that uh that that figure it was. It was 173 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 4: Misko good, thank you for that, the agent for Nikolaokch. 174 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 4: Now there's a couple of things at play here. So 175 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 4: there's the mark Stein report about Dallas, And then there's 176 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 4: now you're wondering does Lebron want to go to Denver? 177 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 4: I mean, we've seen Denver kind of shake up the 178 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 4: Apple Tree by you know, kicking out Michael Malone and 179 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 4: Calvin Booth at the end of the regular season, and 180 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 4: Dave Adelman's now the full time head coach, but they've 181 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 4: moved off of Michael Porter junior, so they're kind of 182 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 4: trying to change things up, like would you pair would 183 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 4: you pair him when the cold in Denver in fall 184 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 4: of twenty twenty six, Maybe maybe, maybe that's a possibility. 185 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 4: I don't think that Denver would have been a possibility 186 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 4: for Lebron, but this picture that was posted on social 187 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 4: media opens it up as well. And then there's there's 188 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 4: the fact that there was a report about six months 189 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 4: ago and Worldwide WOB ended up putting this out about 190 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 4: I don't know, last night about eight o'clock that there 191 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 4: was this league that was touted to be a competitor 192 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 4: to the NBA. There was going to be a worldwide 193 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 4: league of six maybe six men's teams, six women's teams. 194 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 4: They would travel the world, and it feels like a 195 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 4: very Honestly, it feels like a very Saudi public investment 196 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 4: fund backed venture. 197 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 3: Like they've got all the money in the world. 198 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 4: Let's throw all the money at the big stars that 199 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 4: may not want to do or may not want to 200 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 4: play in the NBA anymore. 201 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 3: Want a limited thing, but get a whole bunch of money. 202 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 4: It looks like golf looks like what Chris Gionnaldo Christianna 203 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 4: Ronaldo is doing now, so like it would fit like 204 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 4: in that thing. 205 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 3: So now you have that. 206 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 4: Because Lebron's been in Europe over these past couple of weeks, 207 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 4: which is his excuse probably why he hasn't spoken with 208 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 4: Marcus Smarter DeAndre Ayton. There are so many different ways 209 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 4: that this can go. But the funny thing is, Mike, 210 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 4: none of it is Lakers twenty twenty five, Like, none 211 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 4: of this is yeah, has nothing to do with the 212 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 4: Lakers or what is coming up for next season. It 213 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 4: is everything after the point, he wants to cash his 214 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 4: check and move on. And we wondered on how things 215 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 4: would be able to survive considering how active Lebron was 216 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 4: in sending out messages when he opted into his contract. 217 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 4: The whole golfing thing, the Welcome Home at playing in Cleveland. 218 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 4: The pictures with the Calves. Now this is almost seeming 219 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 4: like a little subtle attack. Now you have the Lebron 220 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 4: would be interested in going to Dallas. You've got this 221 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 4: picture being taken like there's just none of it has 222 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 4: anything to do with the Lakers, and I find it fasting. 223 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 4: I think it would be if you went to the 224 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 4: Mavericks Miike. I think that it would be horrendous for Dallas. 225 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 4: I do not know why you would want to do 226 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 4: such a thing because it changes the dynamic of everything. 227 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 4: It truly does with all of your pieces, and we 228 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: can get more into it. 229 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 2: How much should they hate Cooper flag would be the question? 230 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 2: Oh right, yeah, here, let's build with three guys, come 231 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 2: on average age? 232 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: What about thirty eight. 233 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 2: And a half when you just had Lebron's in and 234 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 2: let's bring this guy in where I think they're moderately 235 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 2: interesting as currently constructed. Yes, it's a crowded Western Conference, 236 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 2: but if they were to do a trade Dan, I mean, 237 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 2: there's so many pieces that would have to come back 238 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 2: to make salaries matchup in the lunacy that is the 239 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: NBA at this point, like Lakers aren't buying him out 240 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: unless he wants to get back every dime of the 241 00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 2: fifty two million, which isn't going to happen. He wouldn't 242 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 2: have opted in at all. So it becomes this long 243 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 2: drawn out thing. And to your point, it's typical Lebron 244 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 2: like it is the well here, let me let you theorize. 245 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 2: To read good old Mishko's line from Instagram quote, the 246 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: summer of twenty five is the perfect time to make 247 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 2: big plans for the fall of twenty twenty six. And 248 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 2: since you've mentioned the league right, six men, six women, 249 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 2: the WNBA, potential for the labor dislorge kind of interesting 250 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,959 Speaker 2: in the background. 251 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 1: So I mean it all plays. 252 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 3: I think all of. 253 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 4: That could be in play for that big picture sort 254 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 4: of deal as you look at life after the NBA. 255 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 4: And Maverick Carter was reportedly a part of this group, 256 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 4: which Maverick Carter is in this picture. Interestingly enough, you 257 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 4: didn't have to include him in the picture. You could 258 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 4: have just had Lebron and Jokicic's agent. 259 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm on a boat, right, just go full step 260 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 2: others I'm on a boat and leave it. 261 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 3: Let's be real. You could have just had Maverick Carter 262 00:12:58,760 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 3: and Yo'll ketch his agent. 263 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 4: It could have been those two like eating in the Yes, 264 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 4: absolutely like it was framed, so all three of them 265 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 4: are are in the picture, and there's just a lot 266 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 4: of different options. You're right about, Dallas, it would be 267 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 4: a disaster. There wouldn't be You can think of a 268 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 4: worse teammate to put next to Cooper Flag than Lebron 269 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 4: James right now, truly like it wouldn't. Then you have 270 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 4: Anthony Davis. It's not like they were besties when they 271 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 4: were in Los Angeles, but let's make it work here. 272 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 3: Excuse me? 273 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, by the end all of that, anything we've heard 274 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 2: from the people that are embedded and have been around 275 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 2: the team that it was frosty and they didn't have 276 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 2: you know, after Anthony Davis got shipped away, all those speculation. 277 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: Of how much did Lebron know, did he not know? Whatever? Else? 278 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 2: And you know, only the their text messages would reveal. 279 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:52,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, and reveal all of that. 280 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 4: And then you have Kyrie Irving who's trying to come 281 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 4: back from his injury. So now you're going to rush 282 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 4: in aging Kyrie Irving back. How's that gonna work for 283 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 4: a guy? Who's already always deals with injuries in his 284 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 4: career anyway, and has logged an enormous amount of minutes 285 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 4: and trying to fill the gaps that the Mavericks had. 286 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 3: It is a recipe for disaster. 287 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 4: Lebron would be the last teammate I would want to 288 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 4: have for Cooper Flag in Dallas. So if Nico Harrison 289 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 4: does this, I think it could be worse than the 290 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 4: Luca trade, Like if there was something that they were 291 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 4: able to do, I just do not see a fit. 292 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 4: Even if Lebron is interested in going there, I think 293 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 4: it's pure revenge. He wants to get revenge on Luca, 294 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 4: wants to get revenge on Rob Polenka. 295 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 3: Luca had nothing to do with it. 296 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 4: It's just that he happens to just to be Luka 297 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 4: datcch And so Lebron's like, Okay, well I'll go there 298 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 4: and I'll win a title something you didn't do, Luca, 299 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 4: and I'll leave these Lakers lying in the dust with 300 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 4: my wake. Maybe not, maybe that doesn't happen, But I 301 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 4: don't think Plinka really cares what happens to Lebron after 302 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 4: next season. 303 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 2: Well, I mean we've seen it time and again. I mean, 304 00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 2: Lebron is not above Petty. There's a promo line that 305 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 2: I threw out at one point. I don't know if 306 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 2: I co opted it from somebody or whatever, but pettiness 307 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 2: knows no tax bracket. Sure, right, I know, you could 308 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 2: be the poorest guy in the world, you could be 309 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 2: the richest. You could still be petty. And Luca becomes 310 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 2: the guy the face right on the murals and everything else, 311 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 2: as the top guy on the banner any of the 312 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 2: sales and promotional stuff that's going out trying to re 313 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 2: up folks for the crypt coming up for twenty twenty five, 314 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 2: twenty six, and Lebron's now in the background. 315 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: Like I joked about it the other day. 316 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: Of the movie Almost Famous, right, it's about a band 317 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 2: and they're rising up and you got the lead singer. 318 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: It's like, I get people together. 319 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: Well, when they finally put out a T shirt, the 320 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 2: guitarist is front and center and the lead singer he's like. 321 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: I'm one of the fuzzy guys in the back. The 322 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: T shirt is everything. Man, we were supposed to be together. 323 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: You were gonna be the you know, enigmatic to see 324 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: mysterious guitar guy. And I was up front and now it's. 325 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 2: All gone, and he's like, dude, it's a T shirt. 326 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 2: It's like the T shirt's everything. That's Lebron James. Yes, 327 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 2: you're absolutely correct.

Off a beautiful well 402 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 2: i'd call it a centering pass, but across that gets 403 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 2: headed with authority to the back of the net. 404 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: Dan. 405 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 4: Still some match to plays. We're still in the first 406 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 4: half here. This has been really up your alley. I 407 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 4: will admit that I've not been locked into the women's 408 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 4: Euro However, when the men's come around, more interested in 409 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 4: that and so, just like anything like with the women's 410 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 4: World Cup garnering huge interest in the United States, I 411 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 4: feel like this is an opportunity where Euro women's now 412 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 4: from now on will be garnering more interest here. I 413 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 4: think that, and you know ESPN had held the rights 414 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 4: previously to the Men's euro Championships, and they did a 415 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 4: really good job and would get people kind of in 416 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 4: that World Cup mode, you know, in the sandwiched in 417 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 4: between the World Cups. And I think that this event, 418 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 4: because it's been on everywhere for the past month, I 419 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 4: think this is a good start for the Women's euro 420 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 4: to gain traction in the United States because I don't 421 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 4: remember it being that much of a thing in the 422 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 4: past at all. Like this is the first year where 423 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 4: I've felt like it's been like, oh wow, this is 424 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 4: the Women's euro So it's the. 425 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 2: First time that it's been broadcast like this US TV. 426 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 2: They were talking about it a little bit in the 427 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 2: Fox pregame because it is on Big Fox. Yeah, you know, 428 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 2: second screen experience turned down the volume and you know, 429 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 2: crank us up a little bit higher. 430 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: But it's interesting. 431 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 2: Yesterday was a day my daughter's had a bunch of 432 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 2: stuff running around, so I'm getting some work done, which 433 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 2: means in the background it becomes I become a glutton 434 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: for how much media can I consume?

Then the next summer there's the gap, and 493 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 4: then World Cup starts again. So now if this gains traction, 494 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 4: now you've got something like the NFL basically wants you 495 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,639 Speaker 4: to have something every month except June.

England fans 537 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 5: reacting to that goal by Spain at Lucas NCFC posting 538 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 5: and I quote, bloody hell, this defense is shocking unquote 539 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 5: defense by the way, spelled here with a scene not 540 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 5: a test at Shankly disciple posting quote awful defending that 541 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:02,360 Speaker 5: unquote that's a British phrase.

It does fit the 545 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 10: bill of what England's done this entire tournament. Fall behind, 546 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 10: early battle back and then somehow some way find life. 547 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 10: Like Jeff Goldblum told us in Jurassic Park, life finds 548 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 10: a way at Dan Byron Fox where you find Dan, 549 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 10: find me over at Swollendome. Story that we've been following 550 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 10: here and certainly filling the airwaves in Los Angeles. 551 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford and his sore back. 552 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,720 Speaker 2: Now, Sean McVay addressing it yesterday, quote, Matthew's feeling good. 553 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 2: He's had a bit of soortus in his back that 554 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 2: kind of crept up throwing. Feeling good. Not anything that's 555 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 2: necessarily new. It's something he's dealt with before. Back injuries always. 556 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 2: You know, we get the red flag goes up and 557 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 2: we get a bit nervous when we hear this, And 558 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 2: part of it is the way McVeigh had originally termed 559 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 2: it as they were coming into camp and kind of 560 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 2: downplayed it, said, hey, I should have called it a 561 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 2: week to week injury. 562 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: So the goal is still for week one. 563 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 2: So we're talking about the NFC West and fantasy purposes, 564 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 2: but we'll start with the Rams because you have the 565 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 2: curiosity of bringing DeVante Adams in as one of your 566 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 2: top wide receivers. The backup to Matthew Stafford is our 567 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 2: old pal, Jimmy Garoppolo. Yeah, oh, he didn't exactly get 568 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 2: along with we can't play the audio because it's too 569 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 2: expletive driven for FCC compliancy. But that becomes a very 570 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 2: curious thing. If Stafford does have to miss. 571 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 4: Time, well, I'll tell you what just from the Rams portion, 572 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 4: And if I go along and we need to push fantasy, 573 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 4: I'm sorry. I apologize. But when you look at where 574 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 4: the Rams are as a team, I think we tend 575 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 4: to look backwards and we say, this was a team 576 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 4: that was in a snowstorm in the second half against Philadelphia, 577 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 4: that was driving with a chance to meet the Egos 578 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 4: in the divisional playoffs. 579 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 3: This is how close this team could be to a 580 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 3: super Bowl. 581 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 4: And I don't know if they see it that way, 582 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 4: and I sure don't think that they look at Matthew 583 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 4: Stafford as possibly being that way. But Mike the week 584 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 4: to week stuff, I am a true believer in if 585 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 4: stuff isn't going right in the offseason leading into the preseason, 586 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 4: it's probably not going to go right into the regular season. 587 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 4: Some may be happen in stance, some may be just 588 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 4: bad luck, and others are continuous. If we're having Matthew 589 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 4: Stafford back issues at the start of the season, how 590 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 4: in the world are we gonna think that he's gonna 591 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 4: make it through this entire season. And so that's where 592 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 4: I look at the Rams, and there's something that happened 593 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:46,160 Speaker 4: in April that I think that we may slip our mind. 594 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 4: Not that we completely forgot about it, but this is 595 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 4: a Rams team that swung a deal and traded away 596 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 4: their first round pick to get another one next year. 597 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 4: So if this team was truly knocking on the door 598 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 4: of what they thought would be a Super Bowl contending team, 599 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 4: I think that pick has got some value this year. 600 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 4: Now they got a deal that they couldn't refuse, ended 601 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 4: up saying, guess what we'll do the deal with the 602 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 4: Falcons have our first round pick, We'll get your first 603 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 4: round pick next year. So now twenty twenty six, they 604 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 4: got two first round picks. That isn't necessarily Rams like, right, 605 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 4: Like we're used to them going in and going hi, yes. 606 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 3: Yes exactly. 607 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 4: So all of that stuff just adding up and now 608 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 4: this happening and Sean McVay saying that it should have been. 609 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 3: Week to week. 610 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 4: I thought they were going to bought him out a 611 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 4: few years ago, and they completely proved me wrong. But 612 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 4: the signs of what they have done and now with 613 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 4: this injury and how it plays out, I think that's 614 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 4: a bad sign for Rams fans heading into this season. 615 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 4: They won the division last year, there were ten games. Again, 616 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 4: took the Eagles to the you know, so the wire 617 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 4: in that game in Philadelphia. But I don't think that 618 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 4: they viewed themselves as that team that's a super Bowl contender, 619 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 4: and I feel like this season maybe a reset so 620 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 4: then they can really load up in twenty twenty six 621 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 4: with whoever is going to be their quarterback of the future. 622 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: It's the curiosity right the offseason. We heard some rumblings 623 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 2: right when it came to Stafford's status, even going back 624 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 2: to the before their run last year. Go back to 625 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 2: the middle of last season, struggling a bunch of injuries, 626 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 2: Stafford didn't play particularly well and it was easy to 627 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 2: just say, well, this guy was heard or that guy 628 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 2: was heard on the outside, and then they go on 629 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 2: this tremendous run. Well, his numbers were not overwhelming. We've 630 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 2: been worried about his health going on two years, three years, 631 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 2: I mean yes, most of his time in Los Angeles. 632 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 2: Coming into camp, there's always the question of what's going on. 633 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 3: I feel like since the Super Bowl right right, Yeah. 634 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean got his ring, but was beat up 635 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 2: in the process. And ever since, every year it becomes 636 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 2: the all right, how much closer are we to where 637 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 2: that click fizz? And last year to your point, right, 638 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 2: IFFs and butts, you know, maybe a win over Philadelphia, 639 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 2: but it seemed like you were on on some magical 640 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 2: path based on where your regular season. Yes, right, so 641 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 2: you're forgetting all the struggles because the end was great. Yep, exactly, 642 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 2: And that's always a difficult like look in the end 643 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 2: ends justify the means is the most biggest cliche of 644 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 2: at all, but it speaks to the point of, all right, 645 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 2: let's go back and see how you got there, right, 646 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 2: young defense, Great, those guys are all signed on. They're 647 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 2: there for a couple more years, right, Jared Verse and 648 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: all these guys. 649 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 4: Got great way to bounce back from Donald's retirement. Right, 650 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 4: So we thought they'd take a step back here, or 651 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 4: that somehow he would come walking through the door. 652 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 2: We keep hearing about all his hurrg outs or whatever 653 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 2: that somehow, all of a sudden he's tearing the door 654 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 2: off and climbing back into the mix, and he would 655 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: be the savior. Well, it turns out, they didn't need him. 656 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 2: Whatever the inspiration was, the defense rose up and had 657 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 2: their moments. But for Matthew Stafford, Yeah, now you're in 658 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 2: the curiosity I bring up to Jimmy Garoppolo because it's 659 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 2: him and it's Steedson Bennett behind Stafford if he's unavailable, 660 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 2: And that DeVante Adams thing was something truly yeah, incandescent. 661 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,239 Speaker 2: I mean, this is the night you could light up 662 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 2: a sky with that kind of energy, go full monsters, 663 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 2: inc because there's a lot of screaming. 664 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 4: Well, I'll just to your point about Matthew Stafford and 665 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 4: what he did last year when we look back like 666 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 4: we shouldn't just look at that Eagles game and be like, 667 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,479 Speaker 4: oh they were close, because I don't think that's how 668 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 4: the Rams look at it. To your point, in their 669 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 4: five game win streak, did that crazy game against Buffalo. 670 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 3: Where they won forty four to forty two. 671 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 4: They then won at San Francisco twelve six, at the 672 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 4: Jets nineteen nine, and that crazy game against the Cardinals 673 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 4: they won thirteen to nine when with the turnover at. 674 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 3: The goal one for Arizona, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, ended 675 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 3: up maybe winning that game. 676 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 4: Stafford didn't top wasn't higher than one hundred and eighty 677 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 4: nine yards in that game. 678 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 1: Look look at that. 679 00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, that four pack you just laid out not exactly 680 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 2: a bunch of offensive juggernauts right now, that was your 681 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 2: defense doing its thing. But San Francisco by that point, 682 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 2: we're playing a bunch of guys you had never heard of. 683 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 2: And Ricky Pearsall was the guy who'd been shot. Like 684 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 2: that was the only thing you knew about it? Yes, right, 685 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 2: and so like, go on down the line, Arizona and 686 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 2: a team that I think I may be higher on 687 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 2: this year than most, assuming you know that all plays 688 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 2: right as well, I. 689 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 4: Think that there's legitimate concern if you're a Rams fan 690 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 4: on how this has gone, because I just don't see 691 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 4: a way where in your seventeenth season the back problem 692 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 4: goes away. 693 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 2: No chance and no argument there as we look at it, 694 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 2: the Rams are a seven, They're a what about I 695 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 2: think twenty two to one right now. 696 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 4: So the NFC West this year has an easier schedule, 697 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 4: So the forty nine ers end up having the easiest 698 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 4: schedule in the National Football League because they cross over. 699 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 3: Or with the UH with the AFC South. 700 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 4: So what is great about this scenario though for the 701 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 4: not so great for the Rams is they still get 702 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,879 Speaker 4: that first place schedule. So yeah, you get a break 703 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 4: because you get Tennessee, they get Houston in the open ear. 704 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 4: And that's what Sean McVay was saying, like, that's what 705 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 4: we're what we're aiming for. You get the you get 706 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 4: the AFC South, but you're going to get the top 707 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 4: of everyone else, you know, throughout the you know, throughout 708 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,479 Speaker 4: and so that's going to be a little bit more 709 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 4: difficult for the Rams to try to navigate. So and 710 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,760 Speaker 4: and maybe they don't have the room for for for airror. 711 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,840 Speaker 4: This year, they they beat Seattle out for the division 712 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 4: on strength of schedule win percentage, you know, some wacky one. 713 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 4: Now they could have they would have played Week eighteen 714 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 4: if it was worth something. They didn't play Stafford in 715 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 4: that game against Seattle. So maybe the Rams end up 716 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 4: winning that, but it was a you know, a ten 717 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 4: win team that ends up winning the division that I 718 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 4: think they realized that they it is close to the 719 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 4: super Bowl, and when you look at what they've done 720 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,839 Speaker 4: this offseason, I'm not sure that they believe that they 721 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 4: can do it in twenty twenty five and are rather 722 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 4: looking ahead to the post. 723 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford Era. 724 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 2: Cut and print it, la, folks.

And we've got all sorts of 856 00:41:45,840 --> 00:41:49,280 Speaker 2: reporting coming out of the NFL, including a bunch of signings. 857 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 2: Jake Ferguson now thirteen million dollars a year, so Jerry 858 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 2: is sending out memos to players to get contracts signed, 859 00:41:58,080 --> 00:41:59,240 Speaker 2: so we have proof of concept. 860 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:01,879 Speaker 4: They just don't have Micah Parsons name on those that's 861 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 4: that's the only issue. 862 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 2: We'll see if that dance and how long that continues 863 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 2: along the way. We probably more contract talk, I think 864 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 2: across the league than we've had for the first week 865 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 2: of training camp in a while. Right with Terry McLaurin, 866 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 2: Now he's a hold in. Right, he showed up. You 867 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:22,280 Speaker 2: heard the audio Ilo played earlier. 868 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 1: Of the Terry and excitement. 869 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 2: Okay, cool, We'll see because he's been pretty pointed in 870 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:31,439 Speaker 2: some of his comments. We've talked about Shamar Stewart. He 871 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 2: and the Bengals finally settled their differences. He accepted the 872 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 2: language that voided future guarantees in exchange for five hundred 873 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,439 Speaker 2: thousand dollars now, but it's now a precedent that it'll 874 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 2: be curious to see how many other teams try to 875 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 2: adopt similar language to what the Bengals were able to. 876 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 2: And folks were up in arms like that, common sense prevails. 877 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 2: He's betting on himself that he's not going to get 878 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 2: in trouble. He got an extra five hundred thousand dollars now, Okay, 879 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 2: right now, and we move on from there. Still Trey 880 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 2: Hendrickson sitting out there, so you've still got all of 881 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:07,920 Speaker 2: those mechanics of the dollars and cents of football. But 882 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:12,399 Speaker 2: we get football in earnest on Thursday, and I'm starting 883 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 2: to get a little jacked up about it. 884 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:13,759 Speaker 4: Right. 885 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 2: You know, You've got the the NFL network going camp 886 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 2: to camp and giving you storylines and some video, and 887 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 2: I know we grossly over overrate every throw, every interception, 888 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 2: every completion. Right right now, cam Ward might be the 889 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 2: greatest quarterback in the world. 890 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 1: I don't know. 891 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 2: I mean, based on what I've seen on video here, Dan, 892 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 2: I mean he maybe that guy. 893 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,479 Speaker 1: No, and Aaron Rodgers may never complete a pass. 894 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 2: I mean Pat Fryerm threw his hands up and discussed 895 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 2: when he when he checked out, Yes, he did bad 896 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:48,480 Speaker 2: things so in there in Pittsburgh. 897 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 4: So the cam Ward your quarterback couldn't do this is, 898 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 4: you know, is one of the things that I that 899 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:56,319 Speaker 4: I saw on top of it, which, by the way, 900 00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 4: and I don't I don't feel bad for will I 901 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 4: think Will Love has had his opportunity to stay claimed 902 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 4: to the job didn't work out. Now he's got the 903 00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 4: shoulder injury that's going to cost him the rest of 904 00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 4: the season. But there never was a competition, right, and 905 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 4: they just never like they as much as the Titans 906 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 4: tried to make us think that cam Ward was going 907 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 4: to try to earn it, that just never was the 908 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 4: case and it shouldn't have been the case. 909 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,839 Speaker 2: Well, and the fact that he opted for the surgery, right, 910 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 2: there was some speculation of what, you know, well, did 911 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 2: he really need it? 912 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 1: Was it advised? 913 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 2: And we've had that with Christian Wilkins, which is a 914 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:30,839 Speaker 2: whole other kettle of fish we can get into here 915 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,040 Speaker 2: in a second. Is just that you know, it's it's 916 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 2: cam Ward's job.

Right there's 994 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:30,319 Speaker 2: no proving the negative at this point for you. But 995 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,520 Speaker 2: when we look at it, you now have this void 996 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:37,040 Speaker 2: as we get to grievance time, and Christian Wilkins had 997 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,560 Speaker 2: his deal avoided by Pete Carroll and it's something you 998 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:41,640 Speaker 2: and I talked about a little bit earlier in the week. 999 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:42,359 Speaker 1: But for those that. 1000 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 2: Missed it, they avoid the remaining thirty five point two 1001 00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:50,399 Speaker 2: million dollars guaranteed money joined the team a year ago 1002 00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,879 Speaker 2: one hundred million dollars deal. This is huge, played five 1003 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 2: games when against what they were saying in terms of 1004 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 2: charting is getting back up on the field in terms 1005 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 2: of having a surgery which would extend things, but in 1006 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 2: theory get it right to where he'd finish out the 1007 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,840 Speaker 2: rest of the contract. And now we get into a 1008 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 2: larger issue of filing aggrievance with the league. Is I 1009 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 2: want to know who's going to be there to work. 1010 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 2: I mean, the lawyers are still getting paid, buildable hours 1011 00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 2: are going to be there, But for the actual union leadership, 1012 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,399 Speaker 2: it's a very curious time for any of these kinds 1013 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 2: of situations. 1014 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,320 Speaker 4: Now, this is the time for the for the NFL 1015 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 4: and for the teams to take advantage of the players 1016 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 4: because of how weaken the players' association is. And even 1017 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 4: if you know you're talking about JC Tretter going on 1018 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 4: trying to clear his name with the Dan Patrick Show, 1019 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 4: I would say this that it and I think I 1020 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:46,360 Speaker 4: think this is your point as well, like, Okay, you 1021 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 4: were you were a part of it, so you have 1022 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 4: to bear some of the responsibility, right, you brought it in. 1023 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:54,640 Speaker 4: I think that yeah, and I think that there's there's 1024 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 4: also the part is it's so fractured that you have 1025 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 4: guys who are trying to say I didn't know this 1026 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:05,359 Speaker 4: and I didn't know that because of how bad and 1027 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:09,239 Speaker 4: poorly it was being run. However they straighten it out, 1028 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 4: it's not going to help them right now because teams 1029 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,920 Speaker 4: are taking advantage. It's not a surprise that the Raiders 1030 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:17,320 Speaker 4: are moving on from Christian Wilkins after just one season 1031 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 4: when you consider just again the track record of what 1032 00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 4: Pete Carroll has done and when he went to Seattle 1033 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 4: and turned around the Seahawks. I mean, it's just turnover, turnover, turnover. Now, 1034 00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 4: the amount of money and that was guaranteed in the 1035 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:30,320 Speaker 4: contract that he signed. 1036 00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 3: That's what's surprising. 1037 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 4: But a player being let go because they were injured 1038 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 4: and didn't have much availability is not necessarily surprising. 1039 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 3: There then now you're not on the same. 1040 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:43,200 Speaker 4: Page of how rehabs should go, and they're just not 1041 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,359 Speaker 4: going to waste any time and move on. And they 1042 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 4: can do that, And Mike, I don't even know if 1043 00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:50,880 Speaker 4: the Raiders believe that they can they could do it. 1044 00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:53,480 Speaker 4: I just think they're like, well, let's give it a shot. 1045 00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 4: What's the worst that could happen? They end up paying 1046 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,799 Speaker 4: them him the money anyway, and if the union is 1047 00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:02,120 Speaker 4: so weak right now that there really is no leadership, 1048 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 4: then why not give it a shot. We had Jason 1049 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,400 Speaker 4: Cole on Winston night when we were talking about it. 1050 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,520 Speaker 4: So there's no way Wilkins is not going to get 1051 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 4: his money. And I think that the Raiders probably understand that, 1052 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 4: understand that, But the worst that they could be told 1053 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:18,719 Speaker 4: is no, you have to pay him, right, Yeah. 1054 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:20,480 Speaker 2: I mean in the interim, maybe it sets up more 1055 00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 2: guardrails and protocols in terms of specificity of language. It's 1056 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 2: a lesson learned by the PA as they scramble to 1057 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:30,719 Speaker 2: get back, because look, we talked about it the last 1058 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 2: couple of years with Lloyd Owl and Tomorrow Smith, like 1059 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,799 Speaker 2: we've talked about him getting drummed for years. So like 1060 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:41,280 Speaker 2: now it's the question and how many former NFL players 1061 00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,080 Speaker 2: have we had walked through the door that we've done 1062 00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 2: shows with. If they weren't the team representative, they got 1063 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,879 Speaker 2: very sparse information of what the hell was going on 1064 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 2: unless they were truly proactive themselves, right them, their agent, 1065 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 2: their family members, spouses that wanted to make sure they 1066 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 2: were looking out and minding all the mining the fhar 1067 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,120 Speaker 2: as it were, because otherwise it's all going from your 1068 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 2: executive level and meeting with either Demorris Smith or Howell 1069 00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:11,640 Speaker 2: and that group, disseminating to the team reps in their 1070 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:14,399 Speaker 2: meetings and then filtering down and then depending on where 1071 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 2: you're at in your continuum, you care about much different things, 1072 00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 2: which is why anytime they go to the negotiating table, 1073 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:23,720 Speaker 2: it's like that's what they got, That's how they got. 1074 00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:28,239 Speaker 4: You know, this is something that you're way more passionate 1075 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 4: about than I am. But I will say this, I 1076 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 4: have memories, very very faint memories of nineteen eighty two 1077 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:43,040 Speaker 4: and I completely remember nineteen eighty seven. There's people our 1078 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:46,279 Speaker 4: age and older. I'm looking at you, Steve Hartman that 1079 00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:50,120 Speaker 4: remember those work stoppages. Yeah, Mike, So when we had it, 1080 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 4: what fourteen years ago? And was it twenty eleven when 1081 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 4: the lockout happened? Like there was there was football pta 1082 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 4: from those times in the nineteen eighties, so that's twenty 1083 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,120 Speaker 4: five thirty years. You got a goal in your match 1084 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,239 Speaker 4: here at England, just put one on the board. See 1085 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 4: that's what they do. Man, come back kids. But I 1086 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:18,800 Speaker 4: remember when we didn't have football. So as a fan 1087 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 4: this may sound crazy, but the reason I started where 1088 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,879 Speaker 4: I'm saying you're more passionate about this is I see 1089 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 4: a weekend union. I think awesome, no work stoppages at 1090 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,319 Speaker 4: any point in the near future because they are so 1091 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,399 Speaker 4: weak and that there's no So like I'm like, great, 1092 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,320 Speaker 4: I'm gonna have football because I don't as a fan, 1093 00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:40,040 Speaker 4: I don't think that I'm relating to the players. So 1094 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 4: like I see that, I'm like, all right, good. There's 1095 00:53:42,040 --> 00:53:45,720 Speaker 4: no possibility of opt outs unless the owners aren't getting something, 1096 00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:49,360 Speaker 4: and if the owners are happy with things, which it 1097 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:51,600 Speaker 4: seems like they are, then there's not going to be 1098 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 4: any work stoppages. As crazy as that sounds, thirty years later, 1099 00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 4: I am still feeling like, Okay, good, we're not going 1100 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 4: to miss any games. We're not gonna need replacement players. 1101 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:02,759 Speaker 4: To that point. 1102 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,839 Speaker 2: Well, it's funny because you know, when we're talking midweek, right, 1103 00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 2: we'd add the Jerry Jones and Mike Brown, and as 1104 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:11,000 Speaker 2: we talked about it's like they're they're awful confident. They're 1105 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:12,759 Speaker 2: just saying what they want. You can chalk it up 1106 00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:16,359 Speaker 2: to their old guys, right, and they're just gonna say 1107 00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 2: crazy stuff. 1108 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,360 Speaker 1: And Jerry Jones is what he is. Mike Brown normally 1109 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:20,920 Speaker 1: doesn't do a lot of that stuff. 1110 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,880 Speaker 2: So you're you're feeling a little chesty right now if 1111 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:27,000 Speaker 2: you're an owner watching all of this swirl around to 1112 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 2: your point like you've got them, you know, backpedaling a 1113 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 2: little bit, and that fracture, it's going to take time 1114 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:37,120 Speaker 2: to rebuild trust. 1115 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to clear out more guys. 1116 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 3: Yep. 1117 00:54:39,880 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's a it's a shaky spot for the 1118 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 2: players side of things, but certainly as fans. Yeah, those 1119 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,120 Speaker 2: TV deals and everything being structured. Hey, everybody, we've lived 1120 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:54,279 Speaker 2: through NBA lockouts. We've lived through players strike in Major 1121 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 2: League Baseball and and yeah, we've been able to to 1122 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:02,200 Speaker 2: make it through with football. I don't know, there's a 1123 00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 2: younger generation that just has no idea on what it 1124 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,279 Speaker 2: was like in nineteen eighty seven or nineteen eighty two. 1125 00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:11,239 Speaker 2: And you didn't have games for one week in eighty seven, 1126 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,080 Speaker 2: then you had then he had the replacement players after 1127 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,560 Speaker 2: that and lost games at eighty two as well. Weird, 1128 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,400 Speaker 2: weird time Baseball still owes me that exposed White Sox 1129 00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:23,360 Speaker 2: World Series from ninety four.

And then you get to schoobl and 1154 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 2: some others, Bobby wid Junior starting to gain some run 1155 00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:45,239 Speaker 2: and maybe you'll see Raleigh's teammate Julio Rodriguez bump up 1156 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 2: a little bit for cosmetic purposes given his recent run. 1157 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,760 Speaker 2: But cal Raley, a guy already had forty home runs, 1158 00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 2: just a couple off of the record paces that we've 1159 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:57,359 Speaker 2: seen in the past. So fun story that just keeps 1160 00:56:57,360 --> 00:56:57,879 Speaker 2: getting better. 1161 00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:01,319 Speaker 4: Dan, Yeah, absolutely, and a shame for the Yankees, who 1162 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 4: are sitting atop the ale wildcard standings, but it's not 1163 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:08,319 Speaker 4: like they have a lot of breathing room because things 1164 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 4: are tight in the American League. The Mariners, the aforementioned 1165 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:14,000 Speaker 4: Mariners right now in the thick of it as well 1166 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 4: for the wild card, just four games back of the Astros. 1167 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,840 Speaker 4: A lot of that's going to change the shape of 1168 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,240 Speaker 4: this race as well if the Mariners stay there, if 1169 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:24,320 Speaker 4: the Royals continue to make a push. Sure feels like 1170 00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 4: the Tigers are going to win that division despite how 1171 00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 4: bad things have gone for Detroit lately. Kansas City four 1172 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 4: and a half back of the wild card, that they 1173 00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 4: make a push. I will also say this, and I'm sorry, Mike, 1174 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:36,840 Speaker 4: I'm gonna just take ten seconds to pat myself on 1175 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 4: the back. But I told you a week or two ago, 1176 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 4: look out for the Marlins, all right. This team is 1177 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,680 Speaker 4: They're not red hot, they are white hot. They've been 1178 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:53,000 Speaker 4: playing really, really good baseball over this last month or so, 1179 00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:55,680 Speaker 4: one eight out of the last ten. 1180 00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 3: Mike. 1181 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 4: Right now, I know there's a log jam in the 1182 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 4: National League, but just five games out of the wild 1183 00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 4: card in the National League, so I'm going to cash 1184 00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 4: in my chips and congratulate myself as the Marlins go 1185 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:10,160 Speaker 4: for the sweep of my Brewers today in Milwaukee. 1186 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 2: So bittersweet, So take the victory lap, but still hope 1187 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 2: for the they take the l today, no question about it. 1188 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:21,720 Speaker 2: I'm going to my trustee Tankathon. Strength of schedule for 1189 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 2: the stretch run right in the meaty part of the curve. 1190 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 2: Five hundred record for the remaining teams for the Marlins. 1191 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:31,919 Speaker 2: But in that division, that would be fun to see 1192 00:58:31,920 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 2: them rise up because I'll watch my guy melt down 1193 00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,800 Speaker 2: Monday through Friday Jason Smith after he hit back from 1194 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:39,000 Speaker 2: his sojourn. Because I haven't had to talk about the 1195 00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:43,720 Speaker 2: Mets during their six game winning streak, it's been glorious, you. 1196 00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:46,040 Speaker 4: Know, teams like a team like the Marlins was thought 1197 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:49,200 Speaker 4: to be a seller at the deadline. They still maybe 1198 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,480 Speaker 4: they could maybe afford to be You're just not gonna 1199 00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:56,520 Speaker 4: trade any of your your key pa pieces away. But 1200 00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,160 Speaker 4: I think they're gonna They're gonna be interesting. Yeah, Mett's 1201 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 4: getting a little little separation right now. Should see some 1202 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,760 Speaker 4: good divisional races. But it looks like the Brewers and 1203 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 4: Phillies in that wild card are set. Same with the 1204 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:11,640 Speaker 4: Cubs or Mets, depending on how you're going to that 1205 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:16,320 Speaker 4: division sorts out, but beneath that below that should be 1206 00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:17,800 Speaker 4: interesting in the NL as well. 1207 00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, Brian Cashman and company already hard at work making 1208 00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 2: a couple of deals over the last few days. Rosario 1209 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 2: shows up yesterday, so we'll see what happens as that's 1210 00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 2: McMahon showed up and then Homer's in his first bat, 1211 00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:34,560 Speaker 2: so Vince gets himself a skybox in a luxury box 1212 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:35,000 Speaker 2: there at. 1213 00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 1: The Yankee Stadium. 1214 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:38,400 Speaker 2: So all of that to say, it's gonna be an 1215 00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,440 Speaker 2: interesting week because there are so few teams like my 1216 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:44,720 Speaker 2: White Sox that are so desperately lost and out of 1217 00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:49,120 Speaker 2: things that how many sellers do you truly have? Yeah, 1218 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,120 Speaker 2: all right, how many are they? Well, you know, we 1219 00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:55,160 Speaker 2: haven't made the playoffs in X years, so we should 1220 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 2: do this. Even if we know we're gonna get trounced, 1221 00:59:58,760 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 2: we should take our shot. 1222 00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:02,200 Speaker 3: It's fun, you know, like the Diamondbacks team. 1223 01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:04,520 Speaker 4: And the Diamondbacks have been hit with injuries, but they 1224 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 4: have not lived up to what they would have hoped. 1225 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:07,840 Speaker 3: They're sitting there on. 1226 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:09,880 Speaker 4: The same exact spot as the Marlins, and I think 1227 01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 4: we see the Diamondbacks. With Josh Naylor being traded in 1228 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 4: u Henneo Suarez on the block as well, we expect 1229 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 4: him to be dealt. They're in full sale mode in 1230 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 4: Arizona well, a team like the Marlins. Again, I'm not 1231 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 4: saying the Marlins aren't going to sell. I'm just they're 1232 01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 4: all of a sudden in the thick of it. And 1233 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:27,920 Speaker 4: I think for a while people felt that they were 1234 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:29,720 Speaker 4: one of the worst teams in baseball. But they've been 1235 01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:32,000 Speaker 4: anything but that over the last month or so. 1236 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,360 Speaker 2: Catching lightning in the bottle and you were on boarded fast. 1237 01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:39,520 Speaker 2: And they wore those resplendent teal hats like that ultra 1238 01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 2: teal to where you got to put these shades in us. 1239 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 2: It's so bright. All right, let's stir our attention back 1240 01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:48,360 Speaker 2: to the National Football League, shall we and the NFC West. 1241 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,240 Speaker 2: We talked a lot about Matthew Stafford a last hour. 1242 01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:55,120 Speaker 2: If we look at the rankings for other Rams principal 1243 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 2: Stafford currently twenty first on average for the quarterback position, 1244 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:03,040 Speaker 2: coming off of a twenty to eight final run, and 1245 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 2: came up big down the stretch when they needed him, 1246 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 2: But it was more the defense and Kyraen Williams, who's 1247 01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:11,200 Speaker 2: number twelve on your running back board right now in 1248 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:16,720 Speaker 2: PPR leagues wide receiving board, Nikua is fourth, and then 1249 01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:20,439 Speaker 2: you've got Devantae Adams coming in at sixteen right now, 1250 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,680 Speaker 2: Dan and the Adams one is interesting. It brought it 1251 01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:26,640 Speaker 2: up last hour as we were talking about the Stafford 1252 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:28,840 Speaker 2: injury because of suddenly Garoppolos throwing to him. 1253 01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:32,400 Speaker 1: He may just opt out. I got a little bit 1254 01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:34,320 Speaker 1: of a hammy. I'm not going over in the middle here, 1255 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:35,160 Speaker 1: I'm not doing this. 1256 01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:38,640 Speaker 2: But Nikua has become one of the steady as you go, 1257 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 2: and it's just odd that Cooper Cup will be wearing 1258 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 2: a Seahawks uniform. Will get to them in a minute, 1259 01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 2: but you know, it's just those identity, the identification of 1260 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,000 Speaker 2: what the rams have been a bit of a shift. 1261 01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:53,800 Speaker 2: But Nikua for fantasy purposes, no matter who's throwing the ball, 1262 01:01:53,960 --> 01:01:54,760 Speaker 2: has just been nails. 1263 01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:57,920 Speaker 4: Yes, yes, you obviously would want a healthy Matthew Stafford 1264 01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 4: being the one. And it's funny because I just I 1265 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 4: don't think to your point of Nikua being the guy, 1266 01:02:05,600 --> 01:02:08,160 Speaker 4: no matter who's that quarterback, you would think that if 1267 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 4: it had to be Jimmy g for any stretch of 1268 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,720 Speaker 4: the way, he would have the familiarity with Devonte Adams, 1269 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:16,040 Speaker 4: but you bring up the history and the frustration of Adams, 1270 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:18,640 Speaker 4: so then it kind of falls back to Nicula. What 1271 01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 4: I think is also adjesting about the Rams in this 1272 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 4: scenario is Kyen Williams. He's got a contract situation, not 1273 01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:30,200 Speaker 4: holding out, but he's kind of been like Nikoua, a 1274 01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:34,120 Speaker 4: guy that just produces, produces, produces, And maybe you're not 1275 01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:37,080 Speaker 4: paying as much attention to how good he is because 1276 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:40,680 Speaker 4: we're focused on what Saquon Barkley does and other players 1277 01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:44,000 Speaker 4: at the top of their positions. But Karen Williams has 1278 01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 4: been good when he's been available for the Rams, and 1279 01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:51,920 Speaker 4: he flies under the radar because there's also not that 1280 01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:54,120 Speaker 4: we felt that blake Korm was a threat. But you're wondering, 1281 01:02:54,160 --> 01:02:56,880 Speaker 4: Jeesus blake Korm going to have, you know, the opportunity 1282 01:02:56,920 --> 01:03:00,960 Speaker 4: to carve out a role, and it didn't happen as 1283 01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:03,360 Speaker 4: much last year. Maybe at some point as well, but 1284 01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 4: I've always been a fan of Karen Williams. 1285 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:08,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, finished seventh and PPR leagues did not play Week eighteen, 1286 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 2: so he, you know, get the gap is a little 1287 01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:14,080 Speaker 2: wider there for the guys that did you know, because 1288 01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:18,440 Speaker 2: because we learned it's bijan huh. He made sure to 1289 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:20,800 Speaker 2: point that out in an interview as they were doing 1290 01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:24,320 Speaker 2: this round stuff in roundtable stuff with the NFL Network, 1291 01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 2: going camp to camp. 1292 01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:27,000 Speaker 1: Well, so it's no longer be. 1293 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:28,560 Speaker 4: There have been a lot of There have been a 1294 01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 4: lot of guys who say their names are pronounced one way, 1295 01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:33,760 Speaker 4: but if if the masses don't pronounce it that way, 1296 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:35,560 Speaker 4: then you're kind of stuck. 1297 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:36,320 Speaker 1: That's it. 1298 01:03:36,320 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 2: It's like all those words that find their way into 1299 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:40,840 Speaker 2: the dictionary because folks get say it wrong, you know, 1300 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:41,960 Speaker 2: like irregardless. 1301 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:44,720 Speaker 4: I you that's true. That's one of my wife's biggest 1302 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:48,320 Speaker 4: pet peeves. She hates irregardless. My my story that I 1303 01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:51,960 Speaker 4: always tell with names is ray Ma Luga, former USC 1304 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,240 Speaker 4: and Bengals linebacker. When he was at USC. I just 1305 01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:57,040 Speaker 4: went up to him and asked him, as the how 1306 01:03:57,080 --> 01:04:00,160 Speaker 4: do you pronounce your last name? And he said, is 1307 01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 4: that the G is like the N like like you would, 1308 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 4: So it's Mala Luna. Nobody calls him Luna. No, everybody 1309 01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 4: just called them Mala Luga. And that's how it is. 1310 01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:13,120 Speaker 4: Now you have those you know, thievesman thighs, mean sort 1311 01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 4: of deals there end up making a change. But once 1312 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:21,160 Speaker 4: it's it's done, it's done. Even Terrell Owens, people will 1313 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:22,160 Speaker 4: still call him Trello. 1314 01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:27,240 Speaker 2: Sure so there's or they mispronounced Barcelona. 1315 01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,280 Speaker 1: You gotta listen to every show we do. People. Dan 1316 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,880 Speaker 1: was with me during the week that became a thing. 1317 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:34,960 Speaker 3: I don't know what you're talking about. 1318 01:04:34,960 --> 01:04:37,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. God, go find the podcast wherever you 1319 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:37,840 Speaker 1: get your audio. 1320 01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:40,439 Speaker 2: That was the Jason Smith Show with me and Dan 1321 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:44,520 Speaker 2: earlier this week. Now the rest of the Quarterback Run 1322 01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:48,280 Speaker 2: And I mentioned Arizona earlier because I'm curious right coming 1323 01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:51,840 Speaker 2: off of what they did this offseason fortifying the defense. 1324 01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:56,080 Speaker 2: James Connor is still there. You have Trey Benson, Marvin 1325 01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:58,880 Speaker 2: Harrison Junior, and Kyle Like. I'm still a sucker for 1326 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:01,320 Speaker 2: Kyler Murray. Is it just because I'm short? 1327 01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:04,120 Speaker 3: No, well, you're not short, but. 1328 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:10,680 Speaker 4: I think Kyler Murray has that pizazz if you will, 1329 01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:13,640 Speaker 4: even with the knee injury, so I don't think it's 1330 01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:18,560 Speaker 4: just height wise. I really like them. I've really liked 1331 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:22,200 Speaker 4: them for the last couple of years. Jonathan Gannon's intro 1332 01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 4: as the head coach was weird, remember the interaction with 1333 01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:28,760 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I think with Kyler Murray. But what they've 1334 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 4: done on the football field I think has been really solid. 1335 01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 4: I do question about James Connor and how long this 1336 01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 4: can go for As great as Connor has been, he 1337 01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:43,960 Speaker 4: was never better than he was last year. So now 1338 01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:47,440 Speaker 4: eighth year in the league, and he has his most 1339 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:51,880 Speaker 4: games played, most carries, most yards, most touchdowns. So at 1340 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:53,880 Speaker 4: a time where you're thinking he's going to fall back, 1341 01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:56,000 Speaker 4: is this the time where he does it, where he 1342 01:05:56,040 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 4: actually is at the top of his game. 1343 01:05:59,040 --> 01:05:59,800 Speaker 3: I think yes. 1344 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:01,520 Speaker 4: I do you think that Trey Benson is a big 1345 01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:03,960 Speaker 4: part of it, but just as a team like Marmon 1346 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 4: Harrison Junior isn't going to be that absent, as we 1347 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:11,960 Speaker 4: had such high expectations for him last year and it 1348 01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:13,920 Speaker 4: wasn't that he was absent. I just think that we 1349 01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:17,840 Speaker 4: thought sixteen hundred yards twelve touchdowns and that's just not realistic. 1350 01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:22,040 Speaker 4: Trey McBride's magnificent. I love Arizona as a whole. As 1351 01:06:22,040 --> 01:06:24,800 Speaker 4: a team with the defensive changes you mentioned, get. 1352 01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:26,640 Speaker 1: In there and bye bye bye. 1353 01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:29,640 Speaker 2: They're eight and a half win total in the over 1354 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:33,760 Speaker 2: under plus four fifty for the division. Harrison, Michael Wilson 1355 01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:37,080 Speaker 2: had a couple of games last year, mighty intriguing. Zay 1356 01:06:37,200 --> 01:06:40,200 Speaker 2: Jones is there when he's healthy, has been a steady, 1357 01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:44,400 Speaker 2: reliable tertiary ops. And the offensive line's a bit better 1358 01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:47,280 Speaker 2: than it was. Harrison Junior currently being drafted as the 1359 01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:49,040 Speaker 2: twentieth wide receiver. 1360 01:06:49,080 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 4: Overall, I think you're going to get really good value 1361 01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:53,680 Speaker 4: with Marvin Harrison Jr. 1362 01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:57,000 Speaker 2: And if the defense does their work, and that's where 1363 01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 2: I'm pinning my homes right, because they did a lot 1364 01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:00,720 Speaker 2: of work on that side. It's kind of like, Josh, 1365 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:04,040 Speaker 2: what you know, you start looking at where you made 1366 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 2: substantive changes, like they've always been weak in the interior, 1367 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:09,560 Speaker 2: finally fortified. 1368 01:07:10,040 --> 01:07:15,640 Speaker 4: Yes, the draft was heavy defense as well. Walter Nolan, 1369 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:18,880 Speaker 4: I know he's digged up right now. Will Johnson you 1370 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:23,720 Speaker 4: drafted as your second round corner. Yeah, Klass Campbell's back there. 1371 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:27,640 Speaker 4: They did make wholesale changes, but they're all in I think, Mike, 1372 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:30,560 Speaker 4: and then this is a fantasy conversation. I think they 1373 01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:33,120 Speaker 4: have a good chance to win the division because you 1374 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:35,080 Speaker 4: know my thoughts on the Rams, and I think people 1375 01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:37,640 Speaker 4: are overvaluing the forty nine ers because they're the name 1376 01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:40,440 Speaker 4: of them is the forty nine ers. But I actually 1377 01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 4: think that Arizona has a chance to win the NFC West. 1378 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 2: So forty nine ers plus one sixty five Rams plus 1379 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:50,160 Speaker 2: one seventy five Arizona plus four to fifty Seattle at 1380 01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:52,520 Speaker 2: plus five hundred. Let's get to those forty nine ers. 1381 01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:57,000 Speaker 2: Brock Purty currently the tenth quarterback drafted on average. McCaffrey 1382 01:07:57,080 --> 01:08:02,120 Speaker 2: backup as the fourth running back on the consensus rankings 1383 01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:06,600 Speaker 2: to this point. At wide receiver Juwan Jennings wants his 1384 01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 2: new deal. He's thirty ninth. 1385 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:10,960 Speaker 3: At least he showed up. Yeah that just. 1386 01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:15,720 Speaker 2: Like recognizing I haven't made major bank fifty thousand dollars 1387 01:08:15,800 --> 01:08:18,439 Speaker 2: a day, A heads up, yes, and I'm gonna need 1388 01:08:18,479 --> 01:08:21,120 Speaker 2: to do the work anyway, so why not go through 1389 01:08:21,120 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 2: the paces. I'm not gonna get hit, but I'm going 1390 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:24,760 Speaker 2: to go through the paces and be here. 1391 01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:27,679 Speaker 4: And also there's no guarantee that they know about Ricky 1392 01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:30,400 Speaker 4: Piersoll Debo's not there and Brandon and Ayuk's not going 1393 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:31,400 Speaker 4: to be ready for week one. 1394 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:34,160 Speaker 1: Pierceaw forty six, Diyuke forty ninth. 1395 01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:38,160 Speaker 4: So like there's there's like there's that like the forty 1396 01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:40,040 Speaker 4: nine ers need him and he could. 1397 01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,400 Speaker 3: Be in line for a big season. 1398 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,559 Speaker 4: It's why I think, like when we talk about tight Ends, 1399 01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:48,559 Speaker 4: when we you know, talked about who we like, it 1400 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:49,880 Speaker 4: is tight ends, Kittle is. 1401 01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:51,080 Speaker 3: Kittle is top three. 1402 01:08:51,800 --> 01:08:55,080 Speaker 4: I think because of the lack of weapons that San 1403 01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:58,519 Speaker 4: Francisco has for brock perty to throw to right now, 1404 01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:03,000 Speaker 4: and I I for his greatest Kittle can be. I 1405 01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:06,080 Speaker 4: don't look at him as the brock Bauer's trade McBride 1406 01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:09,719 Speaker 4: type because just how physical and what he does blocking. 1407 01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:13,600 Speaker 4: But I think he's so high because there's just not 1408 01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:16,559 Speaker 4: a lot of guaranteed options for San Francisco right now. 1409 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, just the curiosity right as it stands. I mean, 1410 01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:24,639 Speaker 2: it's whatever health we get from McCaffrey and kittle holding 1411 01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 2: up problem is to your point about physicality. Anybody that 1412 01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:30,640 Speaker 2: knows anything about George Kittle, besides the fact that he 1413 01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:33,040 Speaker 2: loves professional wrestling and eventually he is going to be 1414 01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:35,960 Speaker 2: a professional wrestler if his body holds up, is the 1415 01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:38,840 Speaker 2: fact that that dude is one of the elite blockers. 1416 01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:41,680 Speaker 2: Like it's a clinic, yes, but over the course of 1417 01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 2: a seventeen game period, everybody else got hurt last year, 1418 01:09:45,560 --> 01:09:49,679 Speaker 2: he was unscathed. So does the fickle football god's hand 1419 01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 2: go and find out I'm not calling oh no, but 1420 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:54,679 Speaker 2: I mean he's a little longer in the tooth right, 1421 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:57,280 Speaker 2: and everybody else in San Francisco seemed to catch that. 1422 01:09:57,320 --> 01:10:00,920 Speaker 2: But I've been watching the old Final Destinations again because 1423 01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:03,360 Speaker 2: there we saw the last one. So it's all these 1424 01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:05,720 Speaker 2: weird ways people die. But it goes back to like 1425 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:10,040 Speaker 2: a legacy that kind of hangs around this family and 1426 01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 2: group of friends. It's got a fun and then I'll 1427 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:14,519 Speaker 2: go see I know what you did last summer later 1428 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:17,400 Speaker 2: on full review on Letterboxed tomorrow. Let's get to your 1429 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,120 Speaker 2: Seahawks before we get it over to Ilo one last time. 1430 01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 2: Gino's twenty fifth kW three to go back to. 1431 01:10:24,280 --> 01:10:26,040 Speaker 3: Our Donald Donaldson. 1432 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:28,960 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Donald, Why why did I want Geno? I 1433 01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:30,400 Speaker 2: wanted Geno back for you? 1434 01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 3: All right? 1435 01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:34,719 Speaker 1: Sorry? Sorry? Sorry? Yeah, goes a dummy. 1436 01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:40,160 Speaker 3: Hey, I want twenty sixth. So it doesn't make much difference. 1437 01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:42,840 Speaker 2: So we get the rut the wrong thing. 1438 01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:46,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, just that, just that, uh the uh, just at 1439 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 4: a little cheaper price for the For the third straight 1440 01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 4: training camp, Kenneth Walker the third is getting rave reviews. 1441 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:55,440 Speaker 4: And when Kenneth Walker the Third has had his opportunity, 1442 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:56,920 Speaker 4: he's been very, very good. 1443 01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:57,840 Speaker 3: The thing you just. 1444 01:10:57,800 --> 01:11:00,760 Speaker 4: Worry about is injury, which he has been dinged up 1445 01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:03,839 Speaker 4: in his career. Klint kubi X now the offensive coordinator, 1446 01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:07,840 Speaker 4: so you have a change there. They they upgraded their 1447 01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:11,040 Speaker 4: offensive line by drafting Gray's Abel in the first round 1448 01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:14,559 Speaker 4: as their left guard, but in Seattle's fashion, they then 1449 01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:18,120 Speaker 4: didn't do anything else to really address the center position 1450 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,479 Speaker 4: or the right guard position, so there's still questions, but 1451 01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,360 Speaker 4: they go to a new blocking scheme this year. kW 1452 01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:27,920 Speaker 4: three getting rave reviews. Jackson Smith and jigbo We mentioned 1453 01:11:27,960 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 4: earlier than now WR one, he's gone high in a 1454 01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:32,759 Speaker 4: lot of drafts. 1455 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 2: So for twelveth from what I see on on the 1456 01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:41,320 Speaker 2: fantasypros dot Com, so expectations that he and Darnald still 1457 01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:45,160 Speaker 2: feel like an idiot. We'll get it done there and 1458 01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:46,040 Speaker 2: there's a chance to this. 1459 01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:48,600 Speaker 4: So they drafted Elijah Arroyo in the second round the 1460 01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:52,559 Speaker 4: tight end out of Miami and aj Barner was tight 1461 01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:56,280 Speaker 4: end that they drafted a year. I think it was 1462 01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:58,720 Speaker 4: in the twenty twenty four draft. Anyway, Barner's now they're 1463 01:11:58,840 --> 01:12:01,479 Speaker 4: starting tight end, but Arroyo is the one that gets 1464 01:12:01,479 --> 01:12:03,320 Speaker 4: all the glitz and glamour because the second round you 1465 01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:06,360 Speaker 4: see the highlights of what he could be almost reminds 1466 01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:07,880 Speaker 4: me a little of Jimmy Graham. I don't know if 1467 01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:12,800 Speaker 4: it's the you comparison, but Barner could actually maybe have 1468 01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:15,719 Speaker 4: more of a role than Arroyo does, even if Arroyo 1469 01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 4: is thought to be as the shiny new object Mike. 1470 01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:20,840 Speaker 4: But I'm not sure how much you're gonna get value 1471 01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:24,719 Speaker 4: tight end wise. To me, it's just JSN and Kenneth Walker. 1472 01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:24,960 Speaker 3: The thing. 1473 01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:28,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, Arroyo is the guy at twenty eighth on average 1474 01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 2: in early drafts, but yeah, certainly Cooper cups at forty seven. 1475 01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:35,320 Speaker 2: So it's the winging a prayer. A lot of it 1476 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:38,840 Speaker 2: is the how much do you trust that Sam Darnold's 1477 01:12:39,160 --> 01:12:41,439 Speaker 2: performance last year wasn't just the aberration? 1478 01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:43,240 Speaker 3: Sure, I'll tell you two things. 1479 01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:44,640 Speaker 4: See that it's going to be a defensive team, so 1480 01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:46,560 Speaker 4: I don't think you're gonna see tons and tons of 1481 01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:50,040 Speaker 4: points from them. But also you wonder how Jalen Milrow 1482 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,800 Speaker 4: could affect Darnold. Sure, so if you've got packages for 1483 01:12:52,880 --> 01:12:55,760 Speaker 4: Jalen Milroe. In the red zone or in near goal 1484 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:59,640 Speaker 4: line situations, you could see Darnald even tick down on 1485 01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:00,679 Speaker 4: the touch passes. 1486 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:04,120 Speaker 2: Absolute chaos, no question about it.

You can find all the 1607 01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:40,880 Speaker 2: podcasts there. But for the Texans, they now have a 1608 01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:43,880 Speaker 2: bit of a quandary, and that Joe Mixon has an 1609 01:19:43,960 --> 01:19:48,280 Speaker 2: injury that's going to sideline him indefinitely. Here, Dan, So, 1610 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:50,519 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, Nick Chubb, once upon a time, 1611 01:19:50,600 --> 01:19:54,800 Speaker 2: your fantasy superstar, and I mean the collective you out 1612 01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:59,320 Speaker 2: there in fantasyland, four straight thousand yard years last year, 1613 01:19:59,400 --> 01:20:02,519 Speaker 2: relegated to a smaller role, just one hundred and two 1614 01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:04,160 Speaker 2: carries in eight games played. 1615 01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:06,599 Speaker 1: Can he be that guy?

I think it would have worked 1618 01:20:10,280 --> 01:20:13,439 Speaker 4: great for both Mixon and for Nick Chubb to share 1619 01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:20,400 Speaker 4: that workload. Mixon was magnificent last year, much reached expectations 1620 01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:22,360 Speaker 4: that I didn't think that he could reach. But I 1621 01:20:22,400 --> 01:20:25,240 Speaker 4: think they both needed each other again for a Texans 1622 01:20:25,240 --> 01:20:26,800 Speaker 4: offensive line that is not good. 1623 01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:28,679 Speaker 3: Some more bad news for CJ.
