But luckily for college basketball, March Madness is 41 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: more than just one Sunday. The tournament back in the 42 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: spotlight Tonight you got the play in games. The games 43 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: will feature the number twelve and number sixteen seeds, and 44 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: there's no blue bloods. It's not Kentucky, Duker Kansas. But 45 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: keep in mind the twelfth seed has made a lot 46 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: of noise since the tournament expanded to sixty four teams. 47 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: Number twelve seed has won at least one game in 48 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: twenty one of the last twenty five tournaments, and go 49 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: last year Oregon State made it all the way to 50 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: the Elite eight. So there's a lot of history for 51 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: a double digit seeds. So if you find yourself being 52 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: able to find true TV and you need something to do, 53 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: there's the play in games because you never know, never know, 54 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: could have the start of another Cinderella run. There, Seaton O'Connor. 55 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: What's our poll question today? I'm actually going to throw 56 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: it over to my right for a couple of poll 57 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 1: options today. Too, very funny, Todd Fritz. Okay, well, you 58 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: know what, I gave you the honor the responsibility for 59 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: a poll question a couple of weeks ago, and you 60 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: couldn't handle drop the ball. I just had too much 61 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: going on back here, and I just stressed out and 62 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: I just couldn't deliver. Okay, go ahead, but for now, 63 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: for Nato, tattoos. Junior fractured his wrist on a motorcycle, 64 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: on a motorcycle or on a motorcycle. Okay, that's a 65 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: brewing story to tease from the padres young star making 66 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: a lot of money during the lockout. There's reports that 67 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: he got in a motorcycle wreck, dust up, spill, different words. 68 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: He was asked about it, and he was very vague 69 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: about it. Then he was asked about it how he 70 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: hurt his wrist, which he says was not in the 71 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: motorcycle accident, and he says, well, I heard it during training, 72 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: but he couldn't give a specific time or incidents. I 73 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: think he's had a couple of motorcycles spills. I think 74 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: he might have been asked, how did you hurt your 75 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: wrist in a motor cycle accident and he might have 76 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: said which one. That's not a good sign here. Yes, 77 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: there's also some reports though which one. Yeah. There's also 78 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: some reports though that even if he had been injured, 79 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: he would not have been able to go to team 80 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: doctors or report it due to the lockout, which is 81 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: another thing that urns any rehab or reporting that would 82 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: have happened. Okay, what else do you have time, which 83 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: free agencies more compelling? NFL or MLB, and your choices 84 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: are NFL, NFL or the National Okay, all right, got 85 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: a little theme here, all right? Got it? A little 86 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: snark in the back row, all right, I like it. 87 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: And then one somewhat legitimate one is will you watch 88 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: the first for tonight? Heck yeah? Hell no? Hey got 89 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: a throward. And one that's not all that. I don't 90 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: know if we need to swear. I mean, they're you know, 91 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 1: they're parents are not tagging their kids to school right now. 92 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: That's when I put yes, no, I feel like I 93 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: can do better than that. It's kind of boring, but 94 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: you go blue sometimes you go blue when you when 95 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: you're desperate. You're right, It doesn no need to say 96 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: hell heck yeah, heck no, that's better. Right. You're not 97 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: a fan of Wyoming. I am a fan. I'm gonna 98 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: watch the games. When I fill out my brackets, I 99 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: circle the one that don't count anyway. I try to guess. 100 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: I want to have a perfect bracket, including the first four. Yeah, 101 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: we're not counting the first four in the bracket shop, 102 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: but I kind of guess who's gonna win tonight And 103 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: tomorrow anyway, Yeah, it is all right. Do you have 104 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: any other pole questions? I got no, No, I mean 105 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: any WEE can use Seaton? Uh? Yeah, maybe I have one. 106 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: This one's kind of well, I don't know what it is, 107 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: but in honor of the passing a w w E 108 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: star Scott Hall, we're gonna name this the memorial Scott 109 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: Hall Memorial poll question. The best hall right now? Hall 110 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: and Oates, Anthony, Michael Hall, kids in the hall? Are 111 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: Cineo Hall? Any other halls you want to Seaton Hall? 112 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: Oh man, I think I might have to give the 113 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: poll question back to Paul. I love that you've been 114 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: hanging out with Fritzie too long that that is definitely 115 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 1: a face. I have one more for you then. If 116 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: you don't like that one next season, DiAngelo Hall. There 117 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 1: you go next season, DeShawn Watson, please four and I 118 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,679 Speaker 1: have several options here for you. I have the Browns, 119 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: the Eagles. That's a little spicier there. We'll talk to Florio. 120 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,799 Speaker 1: I guess to Shaun Watson's meeting with the Browns today, 121 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: but I thought he was preparing for his deposition with 122 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: these civil lawsuits, so I don't know how that's working out. 123 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: I guess he can do both. I would think the 124 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: deposition on the civil lawsuits would be more important than 125 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: getting to Cleveland. But how do you think this is 126 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: going over with Baker Mayfield Junior? The third It's like, 127 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: is he going to be at the facility? Are they 128 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: meeting there? Gonna meet at the Rock and Roll Hall 129 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 1: of Fame. The numbers on Aaron Rodgers new contract are 130 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: in let's see, forty two million this season, fifty nine 131 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: point five, one five and twenty twenty three. First two 132 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: years are guaranteed, so that's one hundred million, and then 133 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: the third year forty nine point three and if I 134 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: do quick math here, that's one hundred and fifty million 135 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: dollars over the next three years. First two are fully 136 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: guaranteed at signing. I guess there could be a fourth year, 137 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: but that it looks like they would redo the contract 138 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: if that's the case. So those are the numbers for 139 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. He did come out and say that the 140 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:28,239 Speaker 1: first numbers reported last week were four years, two hundred 141 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: million dollars. The deal includes one hundred fifty three million 142 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: and guaranteed, so it's close what I and Rappaport reported 143 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty three. Well, it's only one hundred 144 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: million guaranteed, one fifty over the next three years. First 145 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: two are fully guaranteed. But in case you were wondering, 146 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: those are the numbers with Aaron Rodgers. More importantly, what 147 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: Stavante Adams getting. Because if I'm Aaron Rodgers, all right, 148 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: I got paid. I certainly want to make sure that 149 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 1: that guy is going to be out there every game. 150 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: For me? Is there money left over for Davante Adams? 151 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 1: Because to me, that's the big key. We talked a 152 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: lot yesterday about Tom Brady coming back, and I you know, 153 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 1: I'm all for this. I don't like to see you know, 154 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: when a legend walks away. If you can play one 155 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: more year, you want to play one more year, you 156 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: know what happens is we'll go, oh my god, I 157 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: don't want to see him out there like it. Don't 158 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: ruin it for us. That's how selfish we are as 159 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: sports fans. Oh, I don't want to see Peyton Manning 160 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: go out like this. I don't want to see Tom Brady. Okay, 161 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: Tom Brady played at an extremely high level last year, 162 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: and you can make a case he was the most 163 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: valuable player. But I started to look just at the 164 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: schedule here, and I think you've got to factor that in. 165 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers has a chance to be the night and 166 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: Shining Armor. Hey, I'm coming back. We're gonna go to 167 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: the super Bowl this year because look at the schedule. 168 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: You know, we play in this division, the NFC North. 169 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna play the AFC East, and we're gonna play 170 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: the NFC East. We got a chance to fatten up 171 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: our win total and we could be hosting the NFC title. Okay, okay, 172 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: And then I'm thinking with Brady, all right, we look 173 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 1: at the NFC South. Carolina needs a quarterback. New Orleans 174 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 1: needs a quarterback. Atlanta has one, but they don't have 175 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: much of anything right now. And you might go, okay, 176 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: you can pick on the wounded in that division, but 177 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: then you start to look at what he has. You 178 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: got a game against the Rams, you got a game 179 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 1: against the Packers, you got a game against Kansas City, 180 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: a game against Cincinnati, so you got some tough games there. 181 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: You got a game at the Steelers. You're gonna play 182 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 1: Buffalo at Buffalo, So you know, this isn't a foregone 183 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: conclusion that you just pencil him in for twelve or 184 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: thirteen wins this year, and you lost a couple of 185 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: your starting lineman. So it's going to be a little 186 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: bit more of a challenge for Tom Brady than it 187 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: is for Aaron Rodgers. And while we're on the topic 188 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: with the schedule and the Steelers, they signed Mitchell Trubisky 189 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 1: to a two year deal. I love that I told 190 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: Paully about it first, you know, because normally Paully is 191 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: on top of these things. He'll be like, this is happening, 192 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,839 Speaker 1: and I send it to Paully, and all of a 193 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: sudden we all responded. I think it's a good deal 194 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: for Pittsburgh because I think Mike Tomlin can coach Mitchell 195 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: Trubisky up because he didn't have that in Chicago. Plus, 196 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 1: imagine this, You play for a coach who didn't want 197 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: you there in Chicago in Matt Nagee. Now you got 198 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: a coach who does want you. And do I think 199 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: he'll be an improvement over Ben from last year? Yes, 200 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: pay better being and you get him a cheap price. 201 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: He is athletic, and I can't help but look at 202 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: his one loss record for a bad team. They made 203 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: the playoffs twice and he made the Pro Bowl. I 204 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: think that he has a chants to be a good quarterback. Yeah, 205 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: eton sounds like us. Somebody might be joining team Mitchell. Um, No, 206 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: I'm not all in like Paul. Yes, I'm great to 207 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: have you on the team down No, no, no, we'd 208 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: love to have a big sportscaster like you on the time. 209 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: I'm unbiased with I'm not saying you're the president of 210 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: the fan club because that's PAULI, but you sure you 211 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: might be wearing the jersey. My job is just to assess. 212 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: My job is to be not have a hot take, 213 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: just to be realistic, be logical, and unbiased. The Mitchburg 214 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: Steelers wait, okay, all right, all right, we got a 215 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 1: T shirt. I think that's a hard Yeah, that's a 216 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: hard fer Whaler. I don't know what the song is 217 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: for the Fitzburg Steelers. Do the Steelers have a song? 218 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: I love the terrible towel back in the day, but 219 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: what is their song? What is the black and Yellow? 220 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: I love Myron Cope, who is awesome. I don't know 221 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: what the song is for the Steelers. Do do football 222 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: pro teams have fight songs? It's burg? You could say 223 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: it better than me. I don't. I don't think ladies 224 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 1: and gentlemen, you're starting quarterback for the mitch Berg Steelers, 225 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: Mitchell True Bisky Junior, their third Yeah, I think we're 226 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 1: ready to go. Let's go people, people. If people could 227 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: only be in here the entire day and the number 228 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: of times that Seaton will go, let's go, and it 229 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 1: could be about sandwiches, it's it could be. Yeah, I 230 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: could say, hey, meatball subs, Dude, now you're talking. Let's 231 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: get them going. Hey, it's snowing outside. Let's go. Here 232 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: we go, Steelers, Here we Go. I think is that 233 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: their fight song? That's one of their old school but 234 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: that's not a fight song. I don't know. Do NFL 235 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: teams have fight songs? Wouldn't the Steelers have some type 236 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: of polka hit, like some type of seventies hold out 237 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: the barrels. Yeah, like the Red Sox have Sweet Caroline, 238 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: But that's just for the seventh inning stretch. That's not 239 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: a fight song, just a song. I don't know. Gosh, 240 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: it been a while since I've been in a arena 241 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: or a football stadium. When you type when you google 242 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: Steeler's theme song, yeah, here we Go comes up, Renegade 243 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: comes up, Black and Yellow comes up, and then then 244 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: the next option, Yeah Steelers Polka, Okay, that's amazing. Yeah, 245 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: Florio I think is a Steeler guy, so he would know. 246 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: He might even know the theme song. So Florio will 247 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: join us. Coming up, we'll talk about Mitchell Trubisky in Pittsburgh. 248 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: But I think the big story is still it's Deshaun 249 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: Watson and could we see him in Cleveland. You know, 250 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: I give credit to Albert Breer Monday Morning Quarterback. For 251 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: a year now, Albert Brier has talked about Deshaun Watson 252 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: ending up in Cleveland. Now, this is what I was 253 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 1: told this morning. And this is the same source who 254 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: told me the Browns were going to take Baker Mayfield 255 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 1: in the draft before anybody else had this same source 256 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: that Houston and doesn't want Baker Mayfield if if they 257 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: trade DeShawn Watson to Cleveland, they like Davis Mills And 258 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: I don't know what happens with Baker Mayfield. Wow, but 259 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: that was what I was told this morning. Yeah, pulling 260 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: what happens to all those progressive ads they probably have 261 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: shot already for next year with his house and the 262 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: garbage and the lights? Does Deshaun Watson take those? Now, 263 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: if I'm Deshaun Watson, I just I go in and 264 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: I play football, I would lay low. I wouldn't, I 265 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't do anything. You know, everybody makes it seem like, hey, 266 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: no criminal charges, Hey, everybody, let's go after DeShawn Watson. Well, 267 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: you still have the civil lawsuits and who knows what's 268 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: going to come out, and you don't even know if 269 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: he could go on the commissioner's exemple is or is 270 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: he going to be punished here? So there's a lot 271 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: that's still attached to Deshaun Watson, you know, even if 272 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: he's not charged criminally, the civil lawsuits here, and is 273 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: that the quarterback you want for your football too? Now? 274 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: I I have to say this though I don't know 275 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: if it's true or not. It's just my opinion. You know, 276 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: your football fan base probably would put up with Deshaun 277 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: Watson off the field. They don't put up with bad 278 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: quarterback play. No. It's like people protested when Michael Vick 279 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: came back. Then Michael Vick played well, and then all 280 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden people kind of slowed their role on that. 281 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: That's just the truth of what I've seen, and do 282 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: I think if Deshaun Watson goes to Cleep wherever he goes, 283 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: if he plays well, somehow the civil lawsuits sort of 284 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: drift away there as far as that stain that may 285 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: be attached to him. All Right, we'll get phone calls 286 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: coming up, settle on our poll question. We got a 287 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: stat of the day, play of the day, anything else. 288 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 1: Oh by the way, and oh by the way, Carl 289 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: Anthony town scored sixty points last night. I'm gonna talk 290 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 1: about Carl Anthony Towns here. The Lakers have lost eight 291 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: of ten. I'm surprising now when they win. Like so, 292 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: if I don't stay up to watch the whole game 293 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: and I wake up in the morning, I'm surprised when 294 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: they win. Now they've dropped eight of ten. Free agency 295 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: has officially begun. The Jags are spending. Chargers have done 296 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: quite well in my opinion, got a great defensive back. 297 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 1: Maybe they got Khalil Mack. You know, with the comeback 298 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: from his surgery that he'll be able to reclaim the greatness. 299 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: So we'll talk florya about free agency. That'll be coming up. 300 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: We're back after this and the Dan Patrick show. Everybody 301 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: in Gulf says we're number one at something, but Odyssey 302 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: can say we're number one. We have the number one 303 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: putter on tour, and nobody can argue that Odyssey the 304 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: number one putter on every major tour. In twenty twenty one, 305 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: number one worldwide wins. There's no argument there, and there's 306 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: been of the last thirty seven majors across PGA, LPGA 307 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: and Champions Tour. Not only did more pros play in 308 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,400 Speaker 1: Odyssey putter in those majors, but more pros won majors 309 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one with an Odyssey putter. Zander Shafley 310 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 1: used the Odyssey putter winning the gold medal.

So it's a classic 313 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 1: blade with the forgiveness of a mallet which doesn't happen 314 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: like that doesn't even make sense, but somehow they've done this. 315 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: You know, the world relies on Odyssey putters when it 316 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: matters the most.

Good luck 334 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 1: with the book there, Mike Dan. I hope that you 335 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: enjoy my final appearance on the program. It's been a 336 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: fun ride. The drone is hovering outside my house as 337 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: I speak. It's locked and loaded. Have you heard from 338 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: anybody in the NFL Home office about your book? Yes, 339 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: I have, and it was when we first started trying 340 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: to get people to buy the book. I was told 341 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: by someone with a very high level position in the 342 00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: NFL that there is a plan to purchase, say, a 343 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 1: supply of them for dissemination and study in the hopes 344 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: of I don't know, improving things or past understanding what 345 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: this idiot in West Virginia is saying about them, But 346 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: apparently there will be a box that is sent to 347 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 1: three forty five Park Avenue at some point, unless the 348 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 1: person was lying to me, which is entirely possible. All right, 349 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: what did Pittsburgh do yesterday? Hey, well, they got a 350 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: placeholder potentially at quarterback. And the irony in all of 351 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 1: this is that five years ago the Bears signed Mike 352 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: Glennon in free agency and we all thought Mike Glennon 353 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: is going to be their quarterback. In twenty seventeen, God 354 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: saved the Bears, and then that was just the cover 355 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: so that they could draft Mitchell Truebisky, now playing the 356 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: role of Mike Glennon in Pittsburgh in twenty twenty two, 357 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 1: potentially is Mitchell Trubisky. Because two years, fourteen million dollars 358 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: for true Bisky. That screams out to me that they've 359 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: got something else in mind. Surely Truebisky isn't the answer, 360 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: and maybe they'll go forward with him. If so, it's 361 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: a great dollar for dollar deal. Sims and I were 362 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: talking about this earlier. Would you rather pay Truebisky seven 363 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: million a year or Kirk Cousins thirty five million a year? 364 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: Is Kirk Cousins five times better than Mitchell Trubisky. No, 365 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: he's not. So it's a great bargain for the Steelers, 366 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: but it gives them the ability if they choose in 367 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: Round one with the twentieth overall pick, to take a 368 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: quarterback if there's a guy there they really like, or 369 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: even trade up. We've seen them trade up for guys 370 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: like Troy Palamalo and sa Antonio Holmes and Devin Bush. 371 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: If there's a guy they really like, they're not going 372 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 1: to tell us. They run a tight ship. They keep 373 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: their cards close to the vest. We didn't know they 374 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: were on Truebisky. That's just an example of how they 375 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: do things. So they may not be done. But the 376 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: good news is if you're a Steeler fan, you don't 377 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 1: have to worry about Mason Rudolph playing quarterback for the 378 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,719 Speaker 1: team this year. I like the move because it doesn't 379 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 1: cost you anything. And maybe if you look at what 380 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: he's done historically, made the Pro Bowl, made the playoffs 381 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: a couple of times, is one lost record. I think 382 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,239 Speaker 1: he's what eight or nine games over five hundred. He 383 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: can be respectable there and he can get coached up. 384 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: Unlike Matt Nagy who didn't like him, you know, he's 385 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: out a coach that will actually coach him up and 386 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: maybe make him better there in Pittsburgh. Well, the challenge 387 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: is always this day. When you have a new coach 388 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: with a player who doesn't fit your system, do you 389 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: say too bad, figure out how to fit my system, 390 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: or do you adjust your system to fit the player. 391 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: Naggie never adjusted the system. He tried to force Truebisky 392 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: to fit it, and ok, they went to the playoffs 393 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: twice with a great defense and a solid supporting cast, 394 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 1: kind of like what he's gonna have in Pittsburgh. So 395 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,479 Speaker 1: if they do have to go forward with the True Bisky, 396 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:32,919 Speaker 1: they're not going to come out and tell us what 397 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: they think of this incoming crop of rookie quarterbacks. If 398 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 1: they decide True Bisky's the guy, they can be as 399 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 1: good as they were last year because true, Bisky right 400 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: now is better than Ben Roethlisberger was last year because 401 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: Roethlisberger was a shell of the guy he used to be. 402 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: He couldn't move, he had to get rid of the 403 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 1: ball very quickly. True Bisky has athleticism, and if you 404 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: adapt your system to suit his strengths and cover up 405 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 1: his weaknesses, he can games for you. Yeah. I agree. 406 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: We normally don't focus on the Jaguars as a positive, 407 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: but it seemed like they had a pretty good day yesterday. 408 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 1: How would you sum up what the Jags did well. 409 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: One way to try to get yourself out of a 410 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: cycle of dysfunction is to spend your way out of it, 411 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: and that's what the Jaguars are trying to do. They 412 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: are using money to buy players to get people to say, hey, 413 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 1: that team really isn't a complete and total mess right now. 414 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: But when you look at the individual players they got, 415 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: it's pretty good. Now. They may have had to overspend. See, 416 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: you want to get to the point where you win 417 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: the ties, where all things equal, players want to come 418 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 1: play for you and someone else has to outbid you 419 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 1: to get that guy. I think the Jaguars right now 420 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: are in that mode where they have to offer more 421 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: than others, But when you look at what they've done offensively, 422 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: they get Brandon Shure, if they had a couple of 423 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: receivers in Christian Kirkins Jones, they have Evan Ingram, who 424 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: I think has more potential than what he's shown with 425 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: the Giants to one year deal. It's nine million. He 426 00:22:57,840 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: gets go back to the market next year and maybe 427 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: if he has a big year. There's just a quiet 428 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,199 Speaker 1: confidence that's emanating from these moves, and these guys are 429 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: choosing to sign on for a team that was a 430 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 1: mess last year. I think they recognize there's potential with 431 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl winning coach in Doug Peterson, a number 432 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,159 Speaker 1: one overall pick in Trevor Lawrence urban Meyer is gone. 433 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: I think that the Jaguars, not that they're going to 434 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: be a playoff contender right away, but who knows. We 435 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 1: wouldn't have said last year the Bengals are going to 436 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: be a playoff contender if we were talking about it 437 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: in March. The Jags loading up on defense here, what 438 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: do you think of the moves? Are Chargers are saying, well, 439 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: all the Chargers, it's incredible. Look, they're competing, not just 440 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,679 Speaker 1: with the other teams in the AFEC West. They're competing 441 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 1: with the other team in their own stadium, the Rams 442 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: of the defending champions the banner, and I don't know 443 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 1: is the Rams banner going to be up when the 444 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: Chargers are playing their home games. Either the banner or 445 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 1: the brackets that the banner hangs on will be there 446 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 1: as a reminder to the Chargers that the Rams are 447 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: the current Kings of the NFL. So they get their 448 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: their answer to Aaron Donald, although Khalil Mack is what 449 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald currently is. Once upon a time, they were 450 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 1: neck and neck best defensive player in the NFL. They 451 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: get their Jalen Ramsey and j. C. Jackson. They're doing 452 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 1: what they have to do. They get some interior defensive 453 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: line help. They gets a Baston Joseph Day to change 454 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: locker rooms in the same stadium. So they are taking 455 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 1: full advantage dan of the fact that this is the 456 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 1: last year that they have Justin Herbert on the slotted 457 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: rookie contract, which allows them to overspend cap dollars in 458 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 1: other areas, because next year they're going to have to 459 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: do that contract with Justin Herbert. This year they can 460 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: go all out to try to become a competitor, a contender, 461 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: a playoff team, maybe a Super Bowl team. Right away, 462 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 1: the numbers on Aaron Rodgers are out, So you got 463 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: two years guaranteed. You're talking three years, one hundred and 464 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: fifty million dollars. What do you do with Davante Adams, Well, 465 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 1: he says he's not going to play under the franchise tag. 466 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: What's he gonna do. Is he gonna sit out all year? 467 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 1: Is he gonna say no to twenty million dollars and 468 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 1: not sit out? It's twenty million dollars for one year 469 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 1: a foot. I think that you have to try to 470 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: figure out a way to get him to take a 471 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: deal that he finds acceptable, and so far they haven't 472 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: been able to bridge that gap. But if you have 473 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 1: to just wait him out, if you just have to 474 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: hope he shows up, I don't know why he wouldn't 475 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: show up. At twenty million dollars, that is a lot 476 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 1: to leave behind, and a year from now they could 477 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: just tag him again. So I think that that, yeah, 478 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,159 Speaker 1: it's going to be a challenge to sign him be 479 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: a long term deal. And one of the problems with 480 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 1: the Packers is they don't like to guarantee money beyond 481 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: the first year of a contract. Well, if you're going 482 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: to get a guy with the franchise tag whose first 483 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: year salary is already guaranteed at twenty million, if you're 484 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: gonna get him to sign a long term deal, you 485 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: better throw that structure out the window. The Steelers did 486 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: it last year with t. J. Watt. The Bengals haven't 487 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,479 Speaker 1: done it yet, and they need to. The Packers are 488 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: going to need to do it with the Vante Adams 489 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: Jordan Love experiment over would you trade him? I would 490 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: probably be inclined to keep him around because his salary 491 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: is so low. He's a lot cheaper than any backup 492 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: you're gonna find. He knows the system. If Aaron Rodgers 493 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 1: gets injured, he can step right in and you never 494 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: know what Rogers is going to do after this year. 495 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: I haven't seen the full details. I want to see 496 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: all of the nuances of this contract to understand how 497 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 1: easy or difficult it will be for Aaron Rodgers to 498 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: retire after one year. I'm curious, is he making a 499 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: two year commendment to the Packers or is it year 500 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: to year. If it's year to year, I need Jordan 501 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: Love there in the event that Aaron Rodgers decides to 502 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: retire after the twenty twenty two season. So I think 503 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: I'll hold onto him for now. And they've got, you know, 504 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 1: they've got some investment in the idea that this guy's 505 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: going to turn into a player. They traded up in 506 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 1: round one to get him. I feel bad for him. 507 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: He's the only one in this drama in Green Bay. 508 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 1: I feel bad for because he's the only one that 509 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: got involuntarily sucked into it by getting drafted by the Packers, 510 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 1: because surely he wouldn't have signed up to be the 511 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: guy who pisses off Aaron Rodgers and sparks multiple MVP 512 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: campaigns from one of the best quarterbacks in the history 513 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: of the game. He's Mike Florio Pro Football Talk Live 514 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: co host, and his new book, Playmakers, is officially out. 515 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's dad said that the media sort of forced 516 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: Tom into retirement here. Wow, do you take credit for that? 517 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 1: Any dude? Shouldn't we take credit for them? Does Tom 518 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: Brady call his wife the media around the house? I mean, 519 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: I feel like it was Gizelle that was pushing and 520 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: pushing him to finally walk away. There were shots of 521 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: her in the suite during that playoff loss to the 522 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 1: Rams when they were down twenty seven to three, and 523 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: she just seemed like somebody who wasn't all that upset 524 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: that they were down, and kind of happy that this 525 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: thing's finally going to be over, and she'd been trying 526 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: for five years to get him to walk away. I 527 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: don't know, I don't understand it. I mean, he started 528 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: talking about coming back six days after he announced his retirement. 529 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: No one pushed him into this. Maybe he needed to say, Okay, 530 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: I retire and now I'm going to take some time 531 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: to think about my decision. And then he decides to unretire. 532 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 1: But if somebody's fault but his own, if he wanted to, 533 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: I mean, it all came out of the blue. Dan. 534 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: He had said all year long he's playing through twenty two. 535 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 1: This idea that he may retire was stunning to me. 536 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 1: It went against everything he had ever said. He's gonna 537 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: play until he's forty five, that's through next year. So 538 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 1: that I don't think anyone was pressuring him or it 539 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: was not a story, it wasn't an issue. It all 540 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: came from him. So I don't buy that at all. 541 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: And you know, get ready because Tom Brady's now Brett 542 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: Farve and it's going to be every year, every year, 543 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: every year until he finally calls it quits. Okay, let's 544 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,439 Speaker 1: recap the bet. You had a bet with Paulie. Now, 545 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you credit. You said Brady was coming back, 546 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: but you said you said that you would bet a 547 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: pie to the face that Brady would be the Week 548 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: one starter in San Francisco. I did Okay, I did 549 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: you lose the bet? Well, I've tried to negotiate something 550 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: with Pollie. I thought he was talking to his lawyers 551 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,560 Speaker 1: about this. I've been waiting to get the facts from 552 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: the law offices of whoever he is hired to come 553 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: to a conclusion here, because I think he was adamant 554 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: on the fact that Brady's not come back. You win 555 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: the bet. I've talked to my people, Dan, and we 556 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: believe our camp believes that we won the bet outright 557 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: and using semantics over smarts. Okay, yeah, seton, Yeah. If 558 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: I could be an impartial observer here, wouldn't we have 559 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: to wait until week one to find out who won 560 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: the bet? Okay? Yes, thank you? Just in in you know, 561 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: effort of fairness here. I think we have to wait 562 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 1: week one to see who's starting. So are you team Florio? Wow? No, 563 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: I'm team I'm team fairness. Fairness. Yes, this is what 564 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: it sounded like a couple of weeks ago. I think 565 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: he's coming back. I just think he's trying to find 566 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: a way out of Tampa. Are you willing to bet 567 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: on that? How much like a pie to the face? Oh, 568 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: part of the face? I mean, pt of the face 569 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: is nothing. It depends. I mean unless it's like, you know, 570 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: an acid pie. No, no, no, don't normal pie of 571 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: your choice. Anybody want to take Florio up on a 572 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: pie to the face Polly Pollio say that Brady does 573 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 1: not not come back. Just the Niners. We're talking right, 574 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: Just the Niners. I'll do it, Okay, so the floor 575 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: wait week one, Niners. If he's on the Niners, who 576 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: takes a part of the face Paully does? Paully does? 577 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:14,760 Speaker 1: And if he's not on the Niners and I take 578 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 1: the part of it, yes, okay, you come on the 579 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: show and maybe your wife can administer or Chris Simms 580 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: can administer. Apply to the that's it, PAULI, that's a 581 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: walk off like Larry Bird and the three point shooting contest. 582 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: He's said, John Namath, super Bowl three, Seaton's right, Seaton's right. 583 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 1: Week one is the trigger here. Paul did say Paully 584 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: did squeeze in just the Niners. Hey, how about this 585 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: the Monday after Week one? You'll pay up if Tom 586 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: Brady is still okay, if he's not on the Niners 587 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: week one, I will pay up then, okay, Yes, Pa, Dan, 588 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: as a winner of the bet, I'd like to suggest 589 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: an option for Mike Floyd. Mike, as we've been doing 590 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: this for a long time with pies to the face, 591 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: I'll prepare this for you as an offer on the 592 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: table now. Or you could take Dan's offer. You could 593 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: have someone anyone you choose, hit you at the pie 594 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: of your choice in the month of March, oh an 595 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: off season pas a pie which is easy, that's easy living. 596 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: Or a lemon meringue pie in September, the heat of 597 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: West Virginia. Lemon merangue. Yes, yes, if I can just 598 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: say the lemon meringue pie as a pie veteran, Yeah, 599 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: that's the one that I had it on my face 600 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: for about five minutes while the segment ended and had 601 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: a sunburn for the next two weeks. It burned the 602 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: crap out of my skin. So I just wanted to 603 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: throw that in there, Mike, Mike, go on an off 604 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: season pie or would you rather roll the dice? And 605 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: we would do that Monday after the first week in 606 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: of NFL. Actually now now now, so the pie would 607 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: be completely of my own recipe, my own choosing it 608 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: can be there. I would have to approve it. I 609 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: would have to approve it well, because the typical pie 610 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: of the face is just a bunch of whip cream 611 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 1: and a pie pan. We like to throw in strawberries 612 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 1: or raspberries or blueberries crusted in there. It has to 613 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 1: be a pie that you can eat. I'll let it 614 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: ride and I'll take the sunburn from the lemon meringue punt. 615 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: By the way, Deshaun Watson, is he going to Cleveland 616 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: today to talk about They're they're going to Houston to 617 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 1: meet him. But Dan, he's got you mentioned. He's going 618 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: to be questioned today for the first time ever about 619 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: these twenty two civil lawsuits by Tony Buzzby, who's going 620 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 1: to be very aggressive and as a lawyer, former lawyer, 621 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: recovering lawyer, escaped lawyer. I'm not comfortable with the idea 622 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 1: that last night Deshaun Watson's meeting with the Saints and Panthers. 623 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: I want him relaxing. I want him getting a good 624 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: night's sleep. He's in for a tough day to day 625 00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 1: of being interrogated for hours about what he did and 626 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 1: didn't do with these people who have sued him for 627 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: sexual misconducts. But I don't want him distracted by his 628 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: next football team. But does he have to answer the questions? 629 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: Can he plead the fifth in a civil lawsuit or 630 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: a deposition? He was cleared on Friday, no criminal charges, 631 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: and his lawyer has said once we get past the 632 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: grand jury, if he's not charged, he will answer the question. 633 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: So he's going to answer the question. It's going to 634 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: be a long day. And is there a video of 635 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: this mike that a thinking be video? There'll be video, 636 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: There'll be a transcript. Now it may not be publicly available, 637 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: but if I'm interested in Deshaun Watson, I'm talking to 638 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 1: his lawyers now saying, look, I want to see this transcript. 639 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: I want to watch this video before I make a 640 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: final decision. And I know of at least one potentially 641 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: interested team that won't do anything until it knows how 642 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: today goes. So I'm not real comfortable with him being 643 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: distracted by this, But the Browns are in. I don't 644 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 1: know how Baker Mayfield is going to feel about it, 645 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: but the Browns are definitely in. And we don't even 646 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: know what the commissioner is going to do. They might 647 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: look at this as time served by him not playing 648 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 1: last year, but I don't know if the commissioner is 649 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: going to factor that in in his potential punishment. Here's 650 00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: what I think the NFL has learned over the year, 651 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: as chronicled buy several of the essays and playmakers, the 652 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: NFL has learned to never do anything until it has 653 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: to right. You can't make a mistake if you don't 654 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: do anything. So there's a chance that they won't do 655 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 1: anything until the civil case is a result. If he 656 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 1: settles them, maybe he gets suspended. If he loses at 657 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: trial on one or more of these claims, maybe he 658 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: gets suspended. But then if he fights them all the 659 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,240 Speaker 1: way through to a verdict and he wins all twenty 660 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,279 Speaker 1: two of these if twenty two boxes are checked in 661 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: his favor on the verdict form, how do you suspend him? Then, 662 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: how do you justify it? He was never charged, he 663 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 1: was never arrested, He was never even found responsible under 664 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,479 Speaker 1: the very low standard of preponderance to the evidence fifty 665 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: one forty nine, actually fifty point one forty nine point nine. 666 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: It's a little bit. No, he's not responsible, So why 667 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: would you suspend him? So the league has learned to wait. 668 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: It won't surprise me if the league does nothing at 669 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 1: all until after the civil cases are gone. But let's 670 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: say he writes a check and it all goes away, 671 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 1: then the commissioner won't punish him. Could now There was 672 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: some belief last year because the Dolphins were willing to 673 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: trade for him. The Dolphins and the Panthers were willing 674 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: to trade for him before the trade deadline. The Panthers 675 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:20,240 Speaker 1: were fine with none of the legal issues being resolved, 676 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: criminal or civil rule. Take him. But he wouldn't wave 677 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: the no trade clause for Carolina last year. He would 678 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: wave it for Miami. Miami owner Stephen Ross won at 679 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,280 Speaker 1: all twenty two cases settled. My understanding is that Dolphins 680 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: believed that he was going to get suspended roughly six 681 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: games if he had settled those cases. So that's what 682 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: Miami believed. Now the NFL keeps the cards close to 683 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 1: the vest I don't know if they just made a guess, 684 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: but I think if he settles, he's far more susceptible. 685 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: I just don't know how you justify suspending him if 686 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,760 Speaker 1: he does fight this all the way and a jury 687 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: decides he didn't do anything that rises to the level 688 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: of violating someone else's rights.

Hey, 738 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: how you doing? Dan? Great? Yeah, So this Desharne Watson 739 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: Cleveland thing doesn't seem to make any sense to me. 740 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes there seems to be this massive disconnect 741 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: between ownership groups and their fan bases. You know, I'm 742 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: not a Cleveland fan, but I do know that they 743 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,799 Speaker 1: are really really passionate, blue collar, hard working people, and 744 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,240 Speaker 1: they seem to really really like and having Grace Baker, 745 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: you know. And whether it's you know, the tough playing 746 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 1: through injury, playing through doubt, the liability of the guy, 747 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: or just the fact that he has seemed to embrace 748 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: playing Cleveland, enjoys being there when a lot of other 749 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 1: guys probably just don't want to go there. You know, 750 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:39,839 Speaker 1: I think the fans recognize, you know, where they're at, 751 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 1: you know, with him over the last few years as 752 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 1: opposed to where they were just a few short years 753 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 1: ago before he got there. And I think they recognize that, 754 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,799 Speaker 1: and I just don't see those same people running out 755 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: to go by to Shaun Watson Jersey. He's given what 756 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: he's going through, and as much as winning is a 757 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 1: part of it, it's not always a guarantee by adding 758 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 1: one guy, those Jersey. These sales, that community outreach, that's 759 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 1: stuffs important too. And I you know that team is 760 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: in such a good place over the last few years, 761 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 1: and it's awesome as a fan of the sport to see. 762 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,840 Speaker 1: I don't know why the ownership group would want to 763 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: do anything to the rail what they have going well, 764 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,879 Speaker 1: you know, Brock and you make some good points here, 765 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: but you're talking about the Brown's ownership. Just start there. 766 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 1: That's the problem. Brown's ownership. Brown's ownership. You know they 767 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: wanted Johnny Manziel, that owner did. But Baker Mayfield's a 768 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: five hundred quarterback and they won six or fourteen games 769 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 1: last year that he started. And yeah, I know he 770 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 1: was injured, but this is an upgrade if you can 771 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 1: get DeShawn Watson. It's like everybody loved Alex Smith with 772 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,560 Speaker 1: Kansas City, right made the Pro Bowl. I think they 773 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: went twelve and four, and then all of a sudden 774 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 1: they saw Patrick Mahomes and they're like, man, Alex, see 775 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:57,240 Speaker 1: you later. You may not love Deshaun Watson off the bat, 776 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 1: but if he can upgrade you and you're starved to 777 00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: win a championship, man, you'll welcome him with open arms. 778 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 1: Andrew and Washington. Hi Andrew, what's on your mind? Good 779 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 1: morning guys, five six, one seventy six.

My worst of the 785 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 1: weekend is tied to that that they drew the Duke 786 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: Blue Devil's my favorite college basketball team for the last 787 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: thirty two years, So celebration and angst.

You keep saying Tom Brady is 801 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,399 Speaker 1: coming back, and sounds like he's coming back. I made 802 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:43,720 Speaker 1: a bet with a friend of mine that Tom Brady 803 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: was retired. The man won Super Bowls than anybody. He's 804 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:48,800 Speaker 1: the greatest player in the world. What does he have 805 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,320 Speaker 1: to play for? What's in his heart? Though? That's what 806 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 1: the thing is, and it burns hard with that guy.
