Speaker 1: Did you know that sound? Did you prefer that? Did

37
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: you prefer that one of the previous one, which I

38
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 1: think ladder?

39
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with.

40
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 5: You, but the previous, the previous the former was awful

41
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 5: and then you know, so was the ladder. Let's be honest,

42
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 5: but what you do?

43
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 3: You know, it's a little bit of an improvement.

44
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 5: It's not Project Pat Chickenhead. Now that would be something

45
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,679
Speaker 5: and we could all get to. But that that, I mean,

46
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 5: that's a good bit.

47
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 2: You need a gun chicken chicken he What can I

48
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,399
Speaker 2: do for you guys today? What's going on?

49
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: Petros? I got a I didn't know that this was

50
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: a topic of conversation. But some people are trying to

51
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: judge whether or not the Dodgers Padres is a rivalry I.

52
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 5: Think it's a certainly a twenty first century deal, right.

53
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: I mean Max Montsey said that the Giants Dodgers is

54
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: more of a rivalry, that that's a real rivalry, trying

55
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: to see Padres.

56
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 5: I mean, it's like saying, you know, there's rivalries that

57
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 5: last hundreds of years. There's rivalries that go back to

58
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 5: the birth of the sport, kind of like USC Notre Dame,

59
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,679
Speaker 5: something we've been talking about a lot over the last

60
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 5: few years. And there's rivalries that are of interest now

61
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 5: because San Diego has Manny Machado and Tatis and Jackson

62
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 5: Merrill and they're a good baseball team. And the Giants

63
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 5: just won six straight, albeit there playing the Rockies mostly.

64
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 5: But it's a great division. The NL West is an

65
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 5: absolute fireball right now, and it's fun to watch because,

66
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 5: and you know, the talking point from the Dodger people is, well,

67
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 5: the only reason the division is this close is because

68
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,640
Speaker 5: the Dodgers are so beat up and they don't have

69
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 5: any pitching and all of their pitching guys are heard,

70
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 5: and now they're slowly coming back. Blake Smell's working out again,

71
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 5: Toddi's getting ready to pitch, maybe even before the All

72
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 5: star break.

73
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 2: So there's a lot of movement there.

74
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 5: But yeah, I mean people go to the games in

75
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 5: mass The games are all sold out. They're screaming the

76
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 5: entire time. There's a lot of social media buzz and

77
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 5: excitement and action. They meet each other in the playoffs

78
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 5: every year, it seems, and have epic battles and there's

79
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 5: vitriol between the managers between from the last year's playoffs.

80
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 2: There's all kinds of stuff there.

81
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 5: So and Manny Machado remember, used to be a Dodger

82
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 5: and ended up with the Padres signing there so, I

83
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 5: mean they did the crying Kershaw do you remember that?

84
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, from a couple.

85
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 2: Of years ago.

86
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 5: They beat the Dodgers and I don't know why the

87
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 5: Dodgers are so but heard about this, but they did

88
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 5: like a meme of Kershaw crying and they're ringing Mission

89
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 5: mel up on their JumboTron or their big screens. And

90
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 5: there's a lot of meat on the bone between the

91
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 5: Dodgers and the Padres. Now, Kirk Boom, Yeah, does it

92
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 5: go way back to the nineteenth century?

93
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: No?

94
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 5: Does it speak to the expansion to the West coast

95
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 5: of Major League Baseball with the Dodgers and the Giants

96
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 5: leaving Brooklyn and New York respectively, and then those colors

97
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 5: and the orange and blue being replaced and turned into

98
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 5: the New York Mets.

99
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 2: You know, all of that stuff is endless.

100
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,679
Speaker 5: It's a great rivalry. It's Vin Scully, It's Willie Mays,

101
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 5: It's Tommy Lasorda, it's Juan Marishal.

102
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,799
Speaker 2: It's all that stuff.

103
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 5: But there's been a lot of fire and brimstone between

104
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 5: the Dodgers and the Padres for decades. And right now,

105
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 5: the Padres, I know they have some financial issues. The owner,

106
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 5: who was a great owner, passed away, and I'm not

107
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 5: sure what the future is. I know their TV deal

108
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 5: is super weird, like Major League Baseball, and they have

109
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 5: a great TV broadcast and Major League Baseball's in charge

110
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 5: of their TV broadcast. They have like the MLB Mike

111
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 5: Flags and stuff like that. But all that being said,

112
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 5: I think Munsi's right. I mean, the real rivalry, the

113
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 5: one hundred and twenty year old rivalry, is Dodgers versus Giants.

114
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 5: Now this, you know, this can change in a lot

115
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 5: of ways. I mean it changed in the nineties for

116
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 5: Washington and Oregon. Right in the Pac twelve or Pac

117
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 5: ten or pack whatever you wanted to call it. Back then,

118
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 5: it was Washington. Washington State is the Apple cup Oregon

119
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,880
Speaker 5: Oregon State is the Civil War, and those are great

120
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 5: rivalries and everybody gets involved. But in the last twenty

121
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 5: years is the big arrivalry of the Northwest that developed,

122
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 5: that of anger and hatred and Rick Neuheisel doing something.

123
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 5: Is Washington versus Oregon and jealousy over who the blue

124
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 5: blood in the Northwest is and Phil Knight and all that.

125
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 5: So these things can change, but it's Giants. Dodgers is

126
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 5: the West Coast Yankees Red Sox, and you know, yes,

127
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 5: it's great when the Red Sox played in Blue Jays

128
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 5: or whatever. But this is a little I mean, Dodgers

129
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 5: Padres is exciting, but it doesn't have the breadth and

130
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 5: depth of.

131
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 2: The of the history.

132
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: Well I'm just gonna ask you that because it does

133
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: feel like ESPN still tries to churn out Yankees Red

134
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: Sox as if it's you know, twenty years ago and

135
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: you got Pedro Martinez assaulting Don Zimmer.

136
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 5: It's like, well, you know, did he assault Don Zimmer

137
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 5: or did Don Zimmer charge it?

138
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: That's fair? I mean, it's fair.

139
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 5: Scrabbed Don Zimmer by the ear lobes and did a

140
00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 5: little bit of an ola.

141
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: I mean he handle bar his ears.

142
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 2: You know, I want to.

143
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 5: See Don Zimmer go down like that. And then the

144
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 5: worst part was he went down and he didn't get up. No,

145
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 5: you know, he just went He just.

146
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: Dirted it, which was, by the way, that was wild

147
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 1: television back in the day.

148
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 2: Oh, it was awesome.

149
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 5: I mean it was like it was it was like

150
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 5: one of those simulations and AI you see, we're like

151
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 5: brum and sitting in the Oval office and then he

152
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 5: just starts socking some world leader Like that's not real,

153
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 5: you know, but it really happened.

154
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 2: Uh yeah.

155
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 5: But Yankee's Red Sox still means a lot to a

156
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 5: lot of people, you know. I mean, I know ESPN

157
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 5: runs it out like like like Big Noon runs out

158
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 5: Brady Quinn versus Liner and.

159
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 3: Every year.

160
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 5: For that right now, Oh yeah, oh, they're going to

161
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 5: watch the game and go over it again.

162
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 2: At least we're gonna have to listen to Reggie. Yeah.

163
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 5: Anyway, all I'm saying is all I'm saying is these

164
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 5: things are cyclical. But for centuries we've had Yankee's Red

165
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 5: so and Dodgers Giants and all of those great things,

166
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 5: and Dodgers padres is really exciting within the context of

167
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 5: the major League season the last few years. But I

168
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 5: don't know if it has the staying power. If the

169
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 5: Padres have the staying power, then then maybe it will.

170
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 4: Hmm, I'm gonna switch sports on you. You do see that? Okay,

171
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 4: let's see you good with that.

172
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 2: I'm fine. I'm not you know, I'm not really a

173
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 2: baseball expert, believe it or not.

174
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 3: I mean, you sounded like you were all in on it,

175
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 3: you know.

176
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's a testament to how good you

177
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 4: are at the craft that that you've chosen to take on.

178
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 3: You know. So I'm proud of you. The Betros, thank you.

179
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 4: Look, that's that moment where it's like, you know, two

180
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 4: contemporaries that are the same age, you know, compliment one

181
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 4: another because it's like really cool to give a guy,

182
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 4: you know, his props and his just due. Like you're

183
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 4: pretty dope dude at what you do. Anyway, let me

184
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 4: let me let me throw this one out at you.

185
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 4: Let me hurrow this one out at you.

186
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:57,079
Speaker 2: Uh U c l A.

187
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 4: They they were able to get an often to Linemen

188
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:05,719
Speaker 4: that was coincidentally heading to Penn State to flip and

189
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 4: oh no, and yeah, big time, big time, like.

190
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 5: Michael Jordan in the documentary. And I took that personally.

191
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 4: And I took that person I bet you did. Yeah,

192
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,559
Speaker 4: So Johnny, Johnny DJ Jones, he's he's out of Florida,

193
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 4: which is interesting because everybody's recruiting nationally now. And I

194
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 4: know the last time we talked, you're like, listen, they

195
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 4: got to rope off Southern cal and they gotta get

196
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 4: usc that is, has to get the talent that's local.

197
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 4: But I guess my question for you would be seeing

198
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 4: these these types of reports continue to pop up, how

199
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 4: much do you think the NIL is playing a part

200
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 4: in how this goes?

201
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 3: And do you think a team like UCLA, who.

202
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 4: Has historically not been aggressive and active in trying to

203
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 4: help the football team be able to be competitive And

204
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 4: that could be like taken by offensively by some people

205
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 4: who may say that, but it's true, true, but it

206
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 4: is true. They prioritize other things over that, which isn't

207
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 4: a bad thing, but just isn't conducive to them being

208
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 4: a national powerhouse or competitive team to try to win it.

209
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 4: Do you see this becoming the new trend And do

210
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 4: you see teams or schools like a Ucla, you know,

211
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 4: come into the party and say, look, NIL is going

212
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 4: to allow for us to be able to sign bigger

213
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 4: prospects and bigger prospects from around the country.

214
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, it certainly does basketball wise. I mean UCLA

215
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,559
Speaker 5: committed themselves to the NIL basketball wise.

216
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,720
Speaker 2: Some could say they even did that under John.

217
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 5: Wooden when it wasn't legal, but those are different stories

218
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 5: for different times. But yeah, they paid a lot of

219
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 5: money basketball wise, and they were very competitive in the

220
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 5: NIL basketball wise in the last couple of years for

221
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 5: Mick Cronin, and that's made them nationally relevant throughout the

222
00:11:55,240 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 5: basketball season, which is very different obviously from football. We're

223
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 5: talking about UCLA. It's very interesting because you're right, LeVar,

224
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 5: I mean, even when I was playing and afterwards, there

225
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 5: was this big pr push for UCLA to be like,

226
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 5: we have one hundred plus national championships. We have all

227
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 5: these different sports, and that's great, not necessarily a bad thing.

228
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 2: But if you're going to have a very.

229
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 5: Special football program, you have to treat the football program

230
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 5: in a very special way, and they have to be

231
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 5: treated separate from the rest of the sports and I

232
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,199
Speaker 5: think that has been an issue for UCLA for years.

233
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 5: I know for a fact it's what pushed Chip Kelly out.

234
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 5: Now you can think that Chip Kelly underachieved at UCLA.

235
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 5: You can think that he was a weirdo, you can

236
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 5: say that he lost his offensive touch, and maybe all

237
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 5: of those things are true. But it's also true that

238
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 5: he didn't feel as if he got the support necessary

239
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 5: to compete even in the Pac twelve, let alone going into.

240
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,839
Speaker 2: The Big Ten. So all of those things are true.

241
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,440
Speaker 5: Now this offensive lineman that flipped from that we're using

242
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 5: as an example for the discussion. This guy from Florida

243
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 5: that flipped from UCLA to Penn State, Like, when is

244
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 5: this guy gonna.

245
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 3: From Penn State to Ucla?

246
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 2: From Penn State to Ucla to UCLA? When is this

247
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 2: guy allegedly coming to school?

248
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 3: I mean, he's he's next year, he's a twenty six

249
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 3: er exactly.

250
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 2: And this is the same thing with the u USC High.

251
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 5: There's a second the USC High train is like, oh

252
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 5: my god, these guys are coming in twenty twenty six.

253
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 5: Everything's going to change and this is going to be

254
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 5: a great recruiting class in twenty twenty six. And that's

255
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 5: problematic for a few reasons. Number one, if you're a

256
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 5: blue blood or a competitive college football program and Penn

257
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 5: State says, oh we had this guy, Oh we lost

258
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 5: this guy. Okay, well we're Penn State. We gotta keep

259
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 5: on moving on. He might end up coming back. The

260
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 5: point is you can't these guys. I mean, how many freshmen,

261
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 5: even if there's a great freshman class, especially at today's

262
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 5: day and age where teams use the portal to fill

263
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 5: gaps as opposed to playing younger players, how many freshmen,

264
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 5: unless it's Travis Hunter or something, how many freshmen are

265
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 5: really going to contribute to your roster If you have

266
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 5: let's say an eighteen which is very high for today's

267
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 5: day and age, I would imagine like an eighteen person

268
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 5: freshman class.

269
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, how many are going to contribute twenty twenty six?

270
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 2: Like five? Six? Five? Yeah, exactly right, six or five?

271
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 5: And that's going to save you sc football a freshman

272
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 5: class in twenty twenty six.

273
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 2: And then the crazy thing.

274
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 5: Is is is that guy really coming?

275
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 2: You know? It's it's one That's.

276
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 4: Where I thought you were going with it, Like, are

277
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 4: these recruits starting to use this now as a recruiting

278
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 4: a negotiating tool, Like, all right, I don't have any

279
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 4: tensions on going to UCLA or wherever the school may be,

280
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 4: but I must say I'm gonna go here because it

281
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 4: shows that, well, i'll de commit, You're gonna assume that

282
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 4: that decommitting is because of money. I mean, that's just

283
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 4: safe to say that that's what we're going to assume.

284
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 4: So now that opens the door. Say, well, if he'll

285
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 4: de commit from Penn State to go to UCLA, then

286
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 4: if I'm USC or somebody else, it's like, okay, let's

287
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 4: come in with a higher number and we land the.

288
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 3: Top recruit, like by default.

289
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 5: And is it very different with the de committing and

290
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 5: the committing and I'm taking this trip, I'm not taking

291
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 5: this trip. I mean, there is the money part involved,

292
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 5: and that may be a little bit more above the

293
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 5: table negotiation, But honestly, is it very different than when

294
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 5: we were recruited? Right, Guys will commit, they'll de commit,

295
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 5: they'll say they're coming. And another thing like, and I

296
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 5: could say this as a West Coast guy who doesn't

297
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 5: know his elbow from his ass, as a young guy,

298
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 5: you know, It's one thing to live and floor and

299
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 5: be a junior in high school and be like, yeah,

300
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 5: that's right. When I'm done, I'm going to Westwood. I'll

301
00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 5: see you in La, you know, and I'll pack up

302
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 5: the U haul you know, call you know, she going

303
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 5: to UCLA, she'd be trying to party.

304
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 2: I mean, all of those things, you know.

305
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 5: But then when it's actually in practice and you've got

306
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 5: to say goodbye to your mom and your East Coast

307
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 5: lifestyle and you live on the West Coast and not

308
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 5: everybody is into football at UCLA and there's fifteen thousand

309
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 5: people at the game hit the Rose Bowl that fits

310
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 5: one hundred, maybe you feel a little differently about it.

311
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 5: It's it's a fluid situation for these young people, and

312
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 5: I don't I feel badly in a way that recruiting

313
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 5: and it happened, I don't know, twenty five years ago,

314
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 5: maybe more thirty years ago, that college football recruiting and

315
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 5: with the NIL and the transfer portal, I guess it's

316
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 5: not as much of a cottage industry as it was,

317
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 5: but it has become a real cottage industry as far

318
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 5: as following where these young men are identifying, these people

319
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 5: when they're very young, just like your son, LeVar, and

320
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 5: then identifying them and then following where they're going to go.

321
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 5: And it's easy for us to sit here and point

322
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 5: fingers and be like, look at that kid, he transferred,

323
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 5: you know, five times, or he committed five transferring five

324
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 5: times different, but he committed five to five different schools.

325
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 5: He said he was going to do this. He look

326
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 5: at his hat dance, his mom got up and walked out,

327
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 5: And you know, it's really easy to point fingers and

328
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,239
Speaker 5: laugh at people, and really that's our job. But at

329
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 5: the same time, these are really young people, they really are,

330
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 5: and there's a lot of scrutiny on them. It is

331
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 5: a very difficult thing to be told you're a great

332
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 5: football player and you're going to have a great career

333
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 5: when you were a really young person, because you have

334
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 5: no idea what that means or how it's going to

335
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 5: play out. There are so many different variables between you

336
00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,439
Speaker 5: and greatness on the field. And we really do a

337
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 5: disservice to these guys by the way we follow them.

338
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 5: The cat is out of the bag, there's no going back.

339
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 5: But I wish we gave them a little more grace

340
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 5: because it's hard to be young. It's hard to be

341
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 5: young and sit in a room with a college football

342
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,239
Speaker 5: coach you've seen on television your whole life, and that

343
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 5: guy asked you to commit.

344
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 2: What do you say?

345
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 5: You know, I understand why these guys, you know, tell

346
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 5: five teams that they're going to be their girlfriend. It's

347
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 5: a very difficult thing as a young person to say

348
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 5: no to these people that are on your side and

349
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 5: seemingly want you to be part of what they're doing.

350
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,120
Speaker 5: And it's it is kind of interesting. So I try

351
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,719
Speaker 5: to give these guys grace when they commit de commit,

352
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 5: Go here, go there.

353
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 2: I mean, if you really think.

354
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 5: About it, what is modern college football recruiting. I mean,

355
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 5: there's a bunch of guys who preach twenty four to

356
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 5: seven about accountability, about keeping your word, about your commitment

357
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 5: to your teammates, about your commitment to living a good life,

358
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 5: your commitment to being a great son or brother or

359
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,959
Speaker 5: boyfriend or husband or father, all of these different things

360
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 5: the lip service that we hear from college football coaches.

361
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 5: Yet all they do in recruiting is just bend their

362
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 5: legs backwards to get a young person to go back

363
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 5: on their word.

364
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 2: Think about that, I mean that's the you know.

365
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,760
Speaker 5: I mean, we use all these platitudes about being a

366
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 5: great person and accountable and truth, justice in the American

367
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 5: way and put the s on the chest and really,

368
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 5: these guys go in somebody's room and be.

369
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 2: Like, forget what you said to Kirby Smart. Come to

370
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 2: old mess right. You know we're gonna take care of you,

371
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 2: the Kiffins.

372
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: Do do you guys find yourself because I've found myself

373
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 1: getting more and more exhausted by the storyline surrounding college

374
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: football to where it's nil transfer portal college football playoff

375
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 1: twelve team sixteen automatic qualifiers. This conference wants this, this conference,

376
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: And I don't know if it's because I just long

377
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: for simpler times, but I find myself worn out by

378
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: the constant discussion about changes that need to be made,

379
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 1: and I just want to watch the.

380
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 2: Games, do Yeah? And the off season is exhausting, Yeah,

381
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:22,439
Speaker 2: I mean really is.

382
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 1: I just want to get to the games, and.

383
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 5: That's true, and we are all striving to get to

384
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 5: the games. And I guess the NFL and the NBA

385
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:35,120
Speaker 5: have found different ways to entertain people in the off season,

386
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 5: you know, even though nothing actually happens at the draft,

387
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 5: everybody watches like nothing actually happens. There's no real competition

388
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 5: that you know that, that's not why we're watching. But

389
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,400
Speaker 5: and the NBA with their free agency and the way

390
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,719
Speaker 5: that works out and the hot takes from this person

391
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 5: and that person and who said what on a podcast,

392
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:58,360
Speaker 5: that off season is a lot more easily easily digested

393
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 5: than what we have in cage football.

394
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 2: I think it's a good point, Jonas.

395
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 5: But that being said, when the season rolls around and

396
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 5: we have the games, it feels a lot better and

397
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 5: it feels a lot more natural, and it feels like

398
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 5: all is not lost, which is a good thing. But yeah,

399
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:21,480
Speaker 5: the college football post, I mean this the new committee

400
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 5: that's going to really enforce things. You know, it's like

401
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 5: the NCAA is hanging on by this skin. They're like

402
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,919
Speaker 5: the gambling Commission in the song Atlantic City. I mean,

403
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 5: they're barely hanging on. And now they're going to have

404
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 5: some new police siaka please. I mean these stories, I

405
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 5: mean Lincoln Riley trying to wriggle out of the Notre

406
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:46,959
Speaker 5: Dame ro I mean, these off season stories are pathetic

407
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 5: and they are they are unsavory, and you can't say

408
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 5: that they don't hurt the sport. I'm positive that they

409
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 5: hurt the sport. But when the season starts and we

410
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 5: have that going, that's good. I mean, I remember are

411
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 5: calling a game and it was I forget who it was.

412
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 5: Oh it was Washington State Boise State, and it was

413
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 5: a good game, you know, John Mattier versus Ashton Gent.

414
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 5: I mean, that's a hell of a game last year

415
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 5: for star Power and my play by play guy. Because

416
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 5: play by play guys can't help it. They always they

417
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,120
Speaker 5: can't just call the game, you know, they always want

418
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 5: to bring up you know, well, look what's going on

419
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 5: in the Mountain Wars, and you know, and and I

420
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 5: just said, look, I'm glad to be calling a game

421
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 5: where the two teams aren't swing each other.

422
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 1: By the way I think I was watching that.

423
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 5: It's true, right, like you know, I mean, at least

424
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 5: these two teams don't hate each other. They want to

425
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 5: be in the Pac twelve together in a couple of years.

426
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 5: So I mean, and I do feel like we should

427
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 5: dismiss those stories during the season because the season is

428
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,640
Speaker 5: special and we still have that competition and the revealing

429
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 5: of virtue with young men working together, which is what

430
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 5: we like about college football. But but I take your point.

431
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 5: The off sea and is exhausting. And it's like LeVar said,

432
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 5: I mean this kid, I mean, this was a big story.

433
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 5: That offensive lineman that flipped.

434
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 2: There was a big story. That's some tight end, the

435
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 2: tight end from not and modern LA.

436
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 3: That's it's a new day and age.

437
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 5: Man U CLA's greatest on lineman ever is a jow

438
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 5: Wow jay Yo Yeah Ogden who's from way out east,

439
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 5: you know Maryland guy, what Saint Altman's prep. I believe so,

440
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 5: I mean, that's that's h They've gotten a lot of

441
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 5: a lot of UCLA doesn't really build the fence in

442
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 5: LA the way that sc needs to.

443
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 4: But I don't think it's possible for them to do

444
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 4: it unless they brought a big old Brinks truck.

445
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 5: They can even well, the one time they tried to

446
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 5: do it, Carl Drell pulled a few d line types

447
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 5: out of Crenshaw, big kid named Bryce, remember him from Yeah,

448
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 5: and Pete Carroll got so mad he did that whole

449
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 5: gang outreach thing on sixty minutes. Remember he's wearing like

450
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 5: a leather jacket. Next thing in l Patre was like

451
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 5: at Nickerson Gardens and Watts like.

Speaker 2: Hey, what's up? Then that's let's compete. What are you doing?

484
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 4: I saw a funny, funny deal on social yesterday. I

485
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 4: was go aha, ask you did you see the video

486
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 4: on a dude that was telling people why he ended

487
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 4: up having to be a part of a divorce. And

488
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 4: it was because on his birthday, you know, he woke up,

489
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 4: you know, his wife didn't say Happy birthday to him,

490
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 4: kids did say Happy birthday to him. So he went

491
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 4: to you know, went to work upset, bothered, like feeling

492
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 4: a certain type of way underappreciated, undervalued. He goes to

493
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 4: work and nobody says happy birthday to him all day

494
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,880
Speaker 4: at work either, So you're going through where he's like, man,

495
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 4: people really don't care about me. And then he goes

496
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 4: into the office and his boss and supervisor wishes on

497
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 4: a happy birthday, and he's like, oh man, that's it's

498
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 4: really cool. You're the only person that wish me a

499
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 4: happy birthday. He's like, that's, you know, super kind of you.

500
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,399
Speaker 4: She is like, well, you know, it's all good. You know,

501
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 4: would you like to go get lunch? And he's like, yeah,

502
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 4: I go get lunch with you. And so they go

503
00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 4: out and they get some lunch and they're having lunch,

504
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 4: having a good time, and she's like, well, you know,

505
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 4: maybe you want to go hang out at my house

506
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,880
Speaker 4: for a little bit and you know a little little

507
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 4: coffee or whatever. What don't they I mean, hell yeah,

508
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 4: like let's you know, let's go do it. He felt underappreciated, undervalued,

509
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 4: and so he went ahead and did it, you know,

510
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 4: went over there to the house. He's sitting on the couch.

511
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 4: She leaves the room. She's like, listen, I'll be right back.

512
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 4: So she goes into the back room. I'm assuming the bedroom,

513
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 4: but she goes in the back room, comes back out

514
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 4: with all the employees from work, the family from home,

515
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 4: and they threw him a surprise birthday party. Everybody comes

516
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,439
Speaker 4: out and says happy birthday, and he was sitting on

517
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 4: the couch butt naked.

518
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 2: True story.

519
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 3: I saw it on I fell out. I fell out.

520
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 1: Oh god, I was just joint.

521
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 4: Like I said, I actually saved it because it was

522
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 4: so oh my god, it popped.

523
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 1: Up and here and here we are criticizing Stefan Diggs.

524
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You know what I mean?

525
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 3: Could you imagine that?

526
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 4: Man, There's no way there's a serious lapse in your judgment.

527
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 4: You felt underappreciated and somebody was giving you attention, you

528
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 4: went for the cheese.

529
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 3: Could you imagine being the kids?

530
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 2: I mean, there's that.

531
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 3: Dad, What are you doing that?

532
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: I mean it was just his birthday suit.

533
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 4: I mean yeah, you'd have to try to use that one.

534
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 4: I mean how I don't know how you leveraged it

535
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 4: in that moment, but I think that's what you would

536
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 4: have to try to do. You know, it's my birthday.

537
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 2: That's great.

538
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So anyway, hey, listen, it was worth it.

539
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: Now I'm getting so it was worth it.

540
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 2: Good for him.

541
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: Congratulations, that's a way to get out of here.

542
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 3: You go.

543
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: Now it so somebody who's trying to get out of

544
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: having to hear this conversation over and over and over again.

545
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 1: Is one Michael Parson speaking of we Are, and Michael

546
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 1: Parsons is looking to get paid, much like TJ. Watt's

547
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: looking to get paid, much like Trey Hendrickson's looking to

548
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: get paid, except Mike is looking to get paid the

549
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: first time. This is his first big bite at the

550
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: Apple in the NFL. Miles Garrett's getting forty million dollars

551
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 1: in change now at the position. Mike is looking for

552
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 1: that big payday as well too, and he was asked

553
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: about the situation yesterday from the media.

554
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 7: We were talking about how my off season has been,

555
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 7: the training I've been putting in, and he told me I.

556
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 3: Looked pretty good.

557
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 7: So I got excited about that. Actually about the trip

558
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 7: I just went on, and you know, it was pretty

559
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 7: It was a pretty good conversation and obviously just stepping

560
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 7: up in Van leader how much you appreciate them here

561
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 7: and you know, and you know that means a lot

562
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 7: to me.

563
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 2: I hopefully to get a deal done before you go

564
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,120
Speaker 2: to Hoxton. I'm pretty hopeful.

565
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 7: I'm still you know, hanging tight, you like, I understand

566
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 7: it's up to him and he gives the green line

567
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 7: and everything, So hopefully something's done, you know, by next month.

568
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 1: Now that he is Jerry Jones, and I'll pose this

569
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 1: question to you. Do you think Jerry Jones is looking

570
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: around going damn man Brown, Sure are getting a lot

571
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 1: of coverage this offseason with that shirt or Sanders stuff.

572
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 1: You know what, why don't I go ahead and just

573
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 1: let this thing trickle on a little bit longer. Ultimately

574
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: they're going to get a deal done. Dallas always likes

575
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: to wait and they are not averse to having speculation

576
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: and storylines when it comes to guys looking to get

577
00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 1: a contract when training camp rolls around. We saw what

578
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 1: happened with Zeke Elliott, We've seen the Dak Prescott step before.

579
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 1: I wonder if Jerry Jones is like, hey, this is

580
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 1: good for business, all right, We're going to get something

581
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: done here. We know you're going to be ready to

582
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 1: go when it comes time for the season to perform,

583
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: just like you always are and you have been throughout

584
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: the course of your career. Maybe we'll just let this

585
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: one play out a little bit so we've got a

586
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,719
Speaker 1: storyline to kind of bring back some of the coverage

587
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 1: of the Dallas Cowboys this offseason that maybe we haven't

588
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 1: gotten thus far.

589
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 4: I mean, if they paid all these other dudes. Why

590
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 4: would you not pay Michael Parsons. There's no way to

591
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 4: come up with a proper, a proper conclusion to that,

592
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 4: because there is none. There's not one that exists. Jerry

593
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 4: Jones knows that his son knows that the team knows

594
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:50,239
Speaker 4: that Michael Parsons knows that his agent knows that they

595
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 4: all know it. So there's no reason to panic, there's

596
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 4: no reason to create any type of beef or any drama.

597
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 4: And Micah knows that. Micah's a very uberly super intelligent dude.

598
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 4: He's ultra competitive, he's very aware, and so whether they

599
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 4: drag it out or not, I don't think you're going

600
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 4: to hear anything in the media that comes from Michael Parsons. Now,

601
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 4: maybe if it drags out too long, maybe you might

602
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 4: hear something from his agent. But one thing that I'm

603
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 4: pretty certain, if I know him as well as I

604
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 4: believe I know him, You're not going to hear anything

605
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 4: negative come out of his mouth about the situation, because I.

606
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 3: Think he knows.

607
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 4: In the end, it's your work on the field as

608
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,719
Speaker 4: a player that build your value. It's also your works

609
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 4: off the field in the community that uberly built your

610
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 4: value on top of the player, and Michael Parsons has

611
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 4: done a phenomenal job of integrating into the Cowboys community.

612
00:32:55,880 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 4: He has been a very positive contributor and ambassador of

613
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 4: their brand, and those things get rewarded, and they really do.

614
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 4: So I don't see there being any issue with with

615
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 4: him getting his money in the end. So it's just

616
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 4: a matter of time.

617
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: And he's been there. It's not like he's just not

618
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 1: participating in the on field stuff. We've seen players just

619
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: not show up at all. So he's been around. He

620
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 1: talked with the media. He was like, yeah, listen, I'm

621
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: just looking to get a contract done. When he did

622
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: that prank call, that good night call to Brian Schottenheimer,

623
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: you know, one of the one of the things Schottenheimer

624
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 1: said to him say, hey, man, listen, I know you

625
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: know things may be a little awkward right now, but

626
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: it's going to be all good. We'll get this figured out.

627
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 1: I just I don't think there's any shot in hell

628
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: that they don't get a deal done with Micah Parsons.

629
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: I just think this is all part of the Jerry

630
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: Jones method, Like, hey, let it drag on a little bit.

631
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 3: That's fine.

632
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: Like, if we've got to pay, and he said as

633
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 1: much before, if I've got to pay, you know a

634
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: little bit more to get a deal done, and it

635
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: goes on a little longer. So be it like, I'm

636
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 1: not I'm not trying to not get a deal done.

637
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,600
Speaker 1: And I think Michael Parsons, to your point, knows that

638
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 1: they're gonna hammer out a deal at some point here.

639
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 1: But this is the Cowboys offseason. It's every off season,

640
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 1: unlike the Bengals, where you're like, man, I don't know

641
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 1: if they're going to pay any of these guys. I

642
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,319
Speaker 1: never worry about whether or not the Cowboys are going

643
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 1: to get a deal done or pay their players. Ever,

644
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: I'd never thought of a CD Lamb, Dak Prescott, Zeke,

645
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,319
Speaker 1: anybody that's up for a deal, especially ones that have

646
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,919
Speaker 1: been drafted recently. They seemingly always get it done. Never

647
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 1: seems like it's.

648
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 3: Going to get done. It it's going to get done.

649
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 4: And I think he's one of those, you know, and

650
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 4: people were trying to, you know, like make it like, oh,

651
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 4: it's run its course with Michael Parsons. Shut up, No,

652
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 4: it hasn't. It hasn't run any course. You know what

653
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 4: course has been ran his rookie contract. Course, it's come

654
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 4: to an end. Yeah, and now it's time to start

655
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 4: a different course. And that's it. You don't come across

656
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 4: players that can impact the game the way Michael Parsons

657
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 4: does very often. In fact, I think the compare since

658
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 4: comps wise to his stat line is Lawrence Taylor and

659
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:12,240
Speaker 4: Reggie White. Yeah, guys like that. You don't ever you don't.

660
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,719
Speaker 4: You don't ever hear that comparison.

661
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 3: You don't.

662
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:21,959
Speaker 4: Those comparisons are so outlandish for somebody to be able

663
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,560
Speaker 4: to accomplish at that level. It's one thing to get

664
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,480
Speaker 4: compared to those guys coming out of college, but you

665
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:34,400
Speaker 4: being in your first, second, third year of playing, and

666
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 4: those comparisons are still coming based upon the stats that

667
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 4: you're posting. Let me tell you something. I don't care

668
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 4: what team he was on. He's getting paid. If you

669
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 4: want to put a stamp on something that you know

670
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 4: for certain is about to happen, Michael Parsons is going

671
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,359
Speaker 4: to get he Now. I don't know if he gets

672
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 4: more than Miles Garrett, which I doubt he will, But

673
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 4: what if he did, I don't think there'd be one

674
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 4: person that would say that he did it deserve to

675
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 4: get be the highest paid defender in the league.

676
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's younger than him.

677
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 3: Well why wouldn't they way young?

678
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:11,800
Speaker 1: Like, if you're the Cowboys, yeah, get this done. And

679
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,759
Speaker 1: if it means you got to pay a cent more

680
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: than than what Miles Garrett's getting, then pay a cent

681
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 1: more than what Miles Garrett's getting. But get the deal

682
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,880
Speaker 1: done now because the way that pass rushing salaries are

683
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 1: going in the NFL. Like, if you're the Cowboys, you've

684
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 1: got to get it done before TJ. Watts gets done, right,

685
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:29,640
Speaker 1: because that's going to probably reset the market again as

686
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 1: well too.

687
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 3: That's a good question.

688
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 4: If I'm the Cowboys, I'm just playing it the way

689
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 4: that I play it because I already know the number

690
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:40,439
Speaker 4: I'm going to give them.

691
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, and so he's going to get it.

692
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 4: It's just a matter of when he gets it, which

693
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 4: will most likely be closer to training camp.

694
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we're right here at it anyway.

695
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 4: I mean we're only a few weeks away from from

696
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,919
Speaker 4: training camp, you know, starting up. Anyway, he'll he will

697
00:36:57,920 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 4: be a n Oxnar And even if it doesn't get

698
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 4: done by the time training camp starts, it will get done.

699
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 3: Maybe it's a feel good story. At the beginning of camp.

700
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 4: Like you said, why use your ammunition when you can

701
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:10,920
Speaker 4: make it a show?

702
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,160

731
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 1: I'll take the pacers. Sticks, picks, yee, I'll take the

732
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 1: Pacers getting the points, knocks, locks, guys.

733
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 8: I don't know if you saw this. I sent this

734
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 8: in the notes. A young Better, twenty four years old,

735
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 8: put thirteen dollars on a five leg parlay. What he's

736
00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 8: got left is the Oilers and the Thunder winning their

737
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 8: respective championships could pay out to two hundred and seventy

738
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 8: thousand dollars team. He's twenty four. He put thirteen dollars.

739
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 4: All sounds like a Jonas n Yeah, about six dollars off.

740
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 1: I was gonna say he puts.

741
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,320
Speaker 4: Six dollars more down on the bets, right, That's basically

742
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 4: what it was.

743
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 8: He had hit on Liberty, Dodgers, and Eagles to win

744
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,759
Speaker 8: their championships. Now he needs Oilers and thunder. He's gotten

745
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 8: some offers in the six figures, people wanting to buy

746
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 8: his ticket off of him.

747
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,920
Speaker 3: Really, Yeah, he's hedging his bets. He's putting like fifty

748
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 3: thousand dollars to hedges bets.

749
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 4: But uh, that's a smart play. Yeah, he put fifty

750
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 4: thousand dollars on.

751
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 8: Well he's looking at and doing that. Yeah, putting fifty

752
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 8: thousand down to hedges bets.

753
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 1: It's a smart play. Huh.

754
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 4: Although at this point, meaning what meaning if he he

755
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:44,919
Speaker 4: what what does that mean?

756
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 8: Basically betting on I'd say the Florida Panthers or the

757
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 8: Pacers so to speak. So if they win, then he'll

758
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:52,399
Speaker 8: win some money there.

759
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that way, that way, at least he'll win something, Yeah,

760
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 4: he's saying, but that takes away from what his ultimate

761
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 4: pot would be if he just stayed where he is

762
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 4: right headging Yeah, I mean he's going to lose money

763
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:07,439
Speaker 4: regardless one way or the other.

764
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 1: Listen, I just want to win a bet. I'm not

765
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,439
Speaker 1: asking for a lot. I just want to win one

766
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: at anything.

767
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 3: That'd be nice.

768
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 1: And I can't well when you're a loser, you damn

769
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 1: pony bunk.

770
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would go one man, Just kidding,
