Speaker 3: Doesn't make any sense.

67
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 4: We're not expanding, not making any grandi of changes to thing.

68
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 4: Do we add another round of playoffs that I'm unaware of?

69
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 3: Oh? Maybe maybe that's what it is.

70
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 4: Because we already eliminated double headers. So it's not like

71
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 4: we're stretching out the season there is it like the

72
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 4: NBA where we got to give extra off days.

73
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 1: We're doing this because Hey, the expansion we talked about

74
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: in realignment's coming way sooner than you think. We're gonna

75
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: do all this in a couple of weeks in December. So, hey,

76
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: we start the season, everything is good.

77
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 4: Let's give you an extra couple of weeks before the

78
00:03:58,120 --> 00:03:59,119
Speaker 4: NFL Draft.

79
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: Every every day, two teams, two teams have TBA next

80
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: to who they're playing and where it's at.

81
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 3: We're going after March Madness by TBA TBA.

82
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: Eventually we're gonna be Look, we've already opened up opening

83
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: night of March Madness. I mean it's we've said for

84
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: a long time that the sports the way sports have

85
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: evolved over the course of the last years. I think

86
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: about this, right, as you get older, as people get

87
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: older in life and you do something you love for

88
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: a living, I don't think you lose the passion for it.

89
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: I think when you get to a point where you say,

90
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: you know, I still love doing what I do, I

91
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: just wish I could do it a little bit less, right,

92
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: And you see that from people that that get into

93
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 1: their sixties and ed you know, yeah, like, hey, I

94
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: used to be the five night a week anchor on

95
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 1: the five o'clock at eleven o'clock TV show. But I've

96
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: been doing this now for twenty five years. So what

97
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 1: do we do on my next contract? Well, You're gonna

98
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: work Monday through Thursday and I'm off every Friday. I

99
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: got that written into my deal. I still love what

100
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: I do, I just want to do it a little

101
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: bit less. And I kind of feel that way with

102
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,840
Speaker 1: sports is that, you know, here we are in twenty

103
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: twenty five. Right, not to have a big, you know,

104
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,799
Speaker 1: discussion about the state of sports, but we're in twenty

105
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: twenty five, and generally we are overserved with the amount

106
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 1: of sports that we get. Right, The NFL season is

107
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: getting longer, the college football season is getting longer, the

108
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: NBA season is stretching out with Batman no less back

109
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: to backs baseball, Baseball is already a six month season.

110
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: Now you're saying we're getting into over six months before

111
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: you to the playoffs, which is another five to six weeks, right,

112
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: so it's a long time. It's all a six months season.

113
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: As then time goes on, we have not sports. We

114
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,599
Speaker 1: used to be an underserved portion of society. Sports runs

115
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: are always underserved. We didn't get to see all the games.

116
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 1: We didn't get to not as many playoff teams got

117
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: to play. The playoffs were shorter. We were underserved. But

118
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: as sports got more and more popular and the big

119
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: four sports, and you want to throw MLS in now,

120
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: the MLS they start beginning of February and they end

121
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: in December, and there's like two weeks off they start

122
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: the season again. It's like it's like an adult bowling league.

123
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: How long is your both? Like my dad was in

124
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: a bowling.

125
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 3: On holidays off my dad.

126
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 1: My dad was in a bowling league once that started

127
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: in March and ended after Thanksgiving. I'm like, Dad, how

128
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: do you dig Beau? I don't go every week? You go, Dad,

129
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: that's that's three quarters in the How do you how

130
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: many weeks that he goes? I don't know, thirty five

131
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 1: thirty six weeks? Skipped him out of trouble, like, how

132
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 1: do you do that?

133
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 3: Right? The length of a NASCAR season.

134
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 1: Right, you know, so as time goes on, Really, we're

135
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 1: not underserved with sports anymore. Sports fans aren't underserved anymore. We,

136
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: if anything, were overserved, right, And look at football right now,

137
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: we have NFL Monday night, Thursday night, Sunday night. As

138
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 1: the season goes on, we get games on Wednesday, games

139
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 1: on Friday. We had games on Saturday. We get all

140
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: the holidays. Like, we're not that way anymore. And yes,

141
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: the general answer to always we play too many games,

142
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: because I don't think there's anybody that thinks all that

143
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: there's too few games, right, there's nobody things we could

144
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 1: think that way, maybe for the NFL because the NFL

145
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: season is really short, it's four months, so I had

146
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: another couple of weeks. But generally, overall, we get as

147
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: much football as we want, We get as many sports

148
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: as we want to. But it's hey, we're not going

149
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: to have less games because it's less money, right, it's

150
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: less money. Players get less money, leads less money. But

151
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: I will tell you this, right, could you think about

152
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 1: this and how early this is from Major League Baseball eventually? Right,

153
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: Eventually one of the sports leagues is going to be

154
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: that guinea pig, and they're gonna say, you know what,

155
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: we are gonna get a better deal. We're gonna be

156
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: able to sell them. We're gonna we're gonna do some

157
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: sort of do analytics and algorithms and say, you know what,

158
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: if we did less games, right, if we had less games,

159
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: we could sell tickets for a little bit more money,

160
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: make it a little bit more of a mussy thing.

161
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: Whereas if I don't go to this game, I'll wait

162
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: to get free tickets from this game, I can go

163
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: to another game. If there's less games, we can make

164
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: more money. If we increase the ticket prices a little bit,

165
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,679
Speaker 1: then we will having regular ticket prices with so many

166
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: seats unsold for a long season. Right, they'll they'll find

167
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: a way to say, hey, look at this algorithm where

168
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: it works for seventy five games in the NBA and

169
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 1: will make more money than we will eighty two games

170
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: because of unsold seats. Or Major League Baseball might be

171
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: the first league to do that. In fact, I think

172
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: if I had to say which one of the four

173
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: sports leagues, it would be Baseball. That might go back

174
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 1: maybe it'll go back to one hundred and fifty four games,

175
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: but there's gonna be some sort there's gonna be an algorithm,

176
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: and there's gonna be some sort of proven analytics where, hey,

177
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: for baseball, instead of eighty two games a year, if

178
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: we go down to seventy five games, we increase ticket

179
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 1: prices for this will make more money and television ratings

180
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: will go up more because there'll be a little bit

181
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 1: less games. There will be some one league will find

182
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 1: a way to say this works with less games, and

183
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: they will do it. We will get at some point

184
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: in the next few years, by twenty thirty twenty thirty five,

185
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: because again we're getting too flush with leagues. It starts

186
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: so much that they're gonna say, hey, this works more

187
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: for us if there are less games, and that will

188
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: fold its way in And for TV partners, you can say, well,

189
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: how's that gonna work for TV? Well, they're just gonna

190
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: sell their their product for a little bit more money. Nationally,

191
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: They'll still sell it for a little bit more money

192
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: to whoever's broadcasting games locally, because stations are still gonna

193
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 1: want this product, right, it's still gonna want it. Just hey,

194
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: you're gonna bid more money for eighty two Mariners games?

195
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: Are you're gonna bid more money for seventy five Mariners

196
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: games than you were for the last one, which eighty

197
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: two Mariners games? Why am I doing that? Don't you

198
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 1: want the product?

199
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 3: Well? Yeah, I do.

200
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: Okay, if you're not gonna pay for it, somebody else

201
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: will and we'll be able to sell it so they'll

202
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: be able to still make that TV money. But it's

203
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: gonna take a league that says, hey, we're looking into

204
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: the analytics and cost of owners and what it means,

205
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: and we're gonna get one league with less games. And

206
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: if MLB expands, that's gonna be the first one where

207
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: they look and say, Okay, if we're expanding out thirty

208
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: two teams, how are we gonna figure this out? Hey,

209
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: we can figure out a pretty good schedule at one

210
00:09:58,800 --> 00:09:59,719
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty four games.

211
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have first brought that up.

212
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: You'll go down to one hundred and forty, Like, if

213
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: you're MLB, right, I'd be okay if you down to

214
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty. I love baseball like I love, love,

215
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,719
Speaker 1: love baseball my whole life. But if you go down

216
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: a little bit, I'm not gonna say I'm not unhappy, right,

217
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: and with all sports like ll be like with with

218
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 1: basketball and hockey, you can do it. Football probably want

219
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 1: to keep it where it is, but it is the

220
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: shortest season, so you don't really need to do that.

221
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 1: But at some point there's gonna be some sort of analytics.

222
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: Some league is gonna say, yeah, we figured out the money. Right,

223
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 1: If you can figure out a way for the Mets

224
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,559
Speaker 1: to say, hey, we're okay giving Bobby Beinie a million

225
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 1: dollars every July first because we made money on it

226
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: all the way back thirty years ago, you're gonna find

227
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: a way to say, hey, less games, we can still

228
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: make as much money, if not more, because of certain

229
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: things we can do.

230
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 4: By the way, congratulations Ken Griffy Junior. You got his

231
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 4: last three plus million dollar check from the Reds. Oh

232
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 4: that's over now, Yeah, it's final.

233
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: Oh really, I love of other guys. Yeah, but I

234
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: like the fact that Ken Griffy was still getting paid.

235
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:01,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, that was much right. Oh, White Sox all

236
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 4: fame and they just did a bobblehead date over the weekend.

237
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: How about that the White Sox paying any of that

238
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: money or no, oh, okay, I'm said, really, I thought

239
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: that Ken Griffy Day was still going.

240
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 4: But anyway that I like the cut of your Jim,

241
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 4: And if you're disappeared tomorrow, it's been good knowing you.

242
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,559
Speaker 1: Okay, sure, okay, Yeah.

243
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 4: Between players, unions, and league officials and advertisers and TV.

244
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,559
Speaker 1: Partners, someone's gonna do it. Some forward think league is

245
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: gonna do it.

246
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 4: Robmanford's talked about it in the realignment and reconfiguration of

247
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 4: things from Major League Baseball that maybe one hundred and

248
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 4: fifty four is the magic number. He's floating that out

249
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 4: there just so it doesn't get, you know, come out

250
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 4: of out of nowhere and shock folks. To your point

251
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 4: about ticket sales, et cetera, Well, we've seen the largest

252
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 4: of the TV deals and what each team walks home with,

253
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 4: right because of the Packers being a public company, public entity.

254
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,959
Speaker 4: We saw that they got four hundred and thirty two

255
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 4: million dollars from the national cut. That's more than operational expenses.

256
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 4: And they're a unique circumstance as well is that the

257
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 4: season ticket waiting list is generational. But all of that say,

258
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 4: baseball might be the spot, particularly if you can't get

259
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 4: to an agreement where you raise the spending floor and

260
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 4: and force the pirates the aforementioned White Sox again. They

261
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 4: took bites at the apple in the past and failed

262
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 4: and then went the other way. And now they're a

263
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 4: bunch of young guys running around that are just straight

264
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 4: out of Double A and Triple A. All fun to watch,

265
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 4: a couple of potential stars there, but eventually they'll need

266
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 4: to get paid. Go to the Rockies, go to some

267
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 4: of these other teams. You got four or five teams

268
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 4: that it's pretty easy to just say, okay, raise the

269
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 4: floor and force them to compete, as opposed to trying

270
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 4: to police the top end of things. Figure out how

271
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 4: you squeeze the middle, you know, like you made your

272
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 4: sandwich and now you're smushing it together in a panini press.

273
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 4: So yeah, I made it about sandwiches. Now I got press,

274
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 4: Now I have your attention. But it's the it's fuzzy math, right.

275
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 4: You know, we've also been as a sports populous underserved

276
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 4: maybe once upon a time, and now that it's the

277
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 4: glut to where everybody complaiins like you know what, you know,

278
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 4: you don't need all two hundred seventy two NFL games.

279
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 4: You know what, don't buy package X, don't buy package

280
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 4: why whatever. Go back to what you once had. You

281
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 4: had the networks and Monday Night football. You had it all,

282
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 4: but now you have your choice. And if you're paralyzed

283
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 4: by choice, like if you see a big menu and

284
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 4: you get something like you go out to eat and

285
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 4: all of a sudden you're at a place that rivals

286
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 4: the cheesecake factory and suddenly you have stage right, Uh,

287
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 4: then then maybe this is not the playing surface for

288
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,559
Speaker 4: you and someone else should be making your decisions. But

289
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 4: in terms of giving back any of that money, like

290
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 4: the algorithm would really need to be fool proof.

291
00:13:59,640 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 5: True.

292
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, again, Like I always say, smart people, they will

293
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: figure something like that. They can figure out it.

294
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 3: They'll figure something out.

295
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: I like your they'll figure it out.

296
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 4: And if it goes to one hundred and twenty two

297
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 4: twenty games, like you say, I will glue lead.

298
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 1: We will cut the games down. We will be able

299
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,839
Speaker 1: to offer a season ticket package at X amount of

300
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 1: money and get more people to buy individual than having

301
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: empty circus. We'll have some sort of giveaway at whatever

302
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: it is. They will figure out an algorithm to make

303
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 1: it work.

304
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 4: By the way Major League Baseball attendance is through the

305
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 4: roof right now, So you know, just just run with it.

306
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: Well, you know what, let's still I think there's lots

307
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: of teams on getaway days, on Thursday Day games and

308
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: Monday Day games where they're like, why are we even playing?

309
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: Why are we play? We got we got five thousand

00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 1: saw a whole bunch of guys. Oh my goodness, this

360
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: guy got cut. We gotta go sign him. The biggest

361
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 1: cut at DJ. The biggest cut cut was clearly Tommy

362
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:20,439
Speaker 1: cut Let's who was cutlet from the Giants earlier today.

363
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:24,879
Speaker 1: Tommy DeVito, the odd quarterback out in New York. They

364
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: weren't keeping four guys. They were keeping Russell Wilson obviously,

365
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: Jackson Dart, Jamis Winston, Tommy Cutlets, Tommy DeVito is out

366
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 1: of work.

367
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 4: First cut is the deepest. Said it hurt his heart. Yeah,

368
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 4: not that he couldn't have seen this coming from a

369
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 4: mile away a local boy. Hey, yeah, it's one thing

370
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 4: to not see the you know, the blitzing cornerback who

371
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 4: flashes late this one.

372
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 1: And look, here's the thing is that he's gonna get

373
00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 1: somewhere because he has shown that sometimes he can get

374
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 1: the job done with a limited ceiling. And that's absolutely

375
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: what you want in a backup quarterback. Right. He's the

376
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: new Gardner Minshew. He's colorful. He can move the team

377
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 1: from time to time. You don't want him to play

378
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: too too much, but if he has to play a

379
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,439
Speaker 1: little bit, you'll be okay because you can move. He

380
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 1: can move the team up and down the field. But

381
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 1: that's it. He's the new Gardner Minshew. Like Gardner Minshew

382
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: has to to give a pair of jorts and a

383
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,679
Speaker 1: mustache him and say, listen, I'm passing down the title

384
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 1: of most popular colorful backup quarterback in the NFL. I

385
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: had my run. It was a great run, Tommy cutlets.

386
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: Now it's you and he hands in the jorts. Maybe

387
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: a pair of ze Cavarricci or something. Here's a jorts

388
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 1: you put him on, Tommy. All right, I'm handing this

389
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 1: off to you.

390
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 4: We go from clipboard Jesus yeah to Gardner Minshew, who

391
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 4: will be on display in Brazil.

392
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 3: Gardner Minshew is way.

393
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: More interesting than clipboard Jesus, way more. He played more

394
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: like Jesus. I know, but do you want to change religions?

395
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,000
Speaker 1: I gotta book that was written by Jesus.

Speaker 1: the nod for something. Hey, I give him the nod

429
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 1: for being someone to carve out such a popular career

430
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 1: just because his nickname was Cutlets and his agent dressed

431
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: like a guy you would expect to be from New

432
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: Jersey who was maybe in the Sopranos, leaning into that hole. Yeah. Hey,

Speaker 1: We don't like the new logo. We're boycotting the Giants. No, no, no,

442
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,399

443
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 1: Cutlets and we're okay. That was a good bit.

444
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 4: Over the course of the day, I think I relived

445
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 4: the entire series through the release of Tommy DeVito.

446
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: A couple of could you movies mixed in Could you

447
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 1: tell the story of Tommy DeVito? In uh in Sopranos

448
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: splot lines like, okay, Tommy DeVito ascends to the starting

449
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:36,360
Speaker 1: quarterback job.

450
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 3: You know, can you do that? Can you like? Can

451
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,919
Speaker 3: you mirror Christopher's rise with Tommy DeVito and then the fall?

452
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 4: I guess Tommy and that restaurant thing is kind of

453
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 4: like what Christopher wanted to be in the.

454
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 1: Movie business, seeing he listened, don't stop believing.

455
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 3: He just like salts his food, looks up at the

456
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 3: end and it cuts the black.

457
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: This is where you get cut, Tommy, This is where

458
00:21:58,600 --> 00:21:59,280

460
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 4: it happen. But no, I mean had a good run, right,

461
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 4: Like like Jeremy Lynn before him. You trade on a

462
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 4: little bit of performance and then the hype and circumstance,

463
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 4: and you know, we got that great story about the

464
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,679

Speaker 5: Yuck.

507
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,919

509
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: puts it on the internet, and then it goes viral,

510
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,200

Speaker 1: someone you don't know. You know, you gotta have game,

514
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,080

00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 3: Makes it extra spicy.

516
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 1: The only the only thing that I will say is this, right,

517
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 1: shoot your shot. Be careful doing it at work because

518
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 1: the one thing, Look, everybody is special, right, men, women

519
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: were all special. If you keep shooting your shot at work, right,

520
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: and it's not working, when you get to the fourth person, right,

521
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 1: like it's like, oh hey, let's go out, Like, well, okay,

00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,399
Speaker 1: gonna go out with you unless you.

525
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, in the workplaces, work is dangerous proposition.

526
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: Went well, yeah, it's a dangerous proposition. Uh, And so

527
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 1: you gotta shoot your shot, right, You got to shoot

528
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 1: your shot, but you got And that's the one thing

529
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: I will say, is that at work? You gotta you

530
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: gotta be careful about it because everybody, everybody's special and

531
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: and uh I knew this when I was I didn't care.

532
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,560
Speaker 4: Okay, you just gave participation trophies to the human pis.

533
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: No, no, look, no, no, everybody everybody spent. You meet

534
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 1: that special someone, you're spent. But I don't feel special

535
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 1: if you've asked out three other people at work and

536
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,679
Speaker 1: now you're asking me, no, I'm not gonna do it.

537
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 3: No, sorry, I was only four thou chart.

538
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 1: That's why you always, and I'm always a big proponent

539
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: of asking someone out early. Rather than than waiting and

540
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: getting in the friend zone to ask someone out, you

541
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: seize that moment. You know they always say high point

542
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: the football, right, high point to touch the football, highest point,

543
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 1: get those hands up, ask that person out at the

544
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,239
Speaker 1: point where the most likely thing they're gonna say is yes,

545
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: or give you their phone number, whatever it is. But

546
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: shoot your shot right. Because on when I was younger, man,

547
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 1: I was the Tony Gwinn of shooting my shot. I

548
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 1: had about a three fifty percent of success rate at

549
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: dates and phone numbers. That means three and a half

550
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: out of every ten. Yes, that means six and a

551
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: half for seven was a no. But okay, I got it.

552
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 3: You know I didn't.

553
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: Okay, right, what am I gonna do? We're not dating

554
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,119
Speaker 1: if I don't ask her out. So what's gonna like

555
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: the Wayne Gretzky line, Right, you miss one hundred percent

556
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: of the shots that you never take. You will miss

557
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 1: one hundred percent of the putts that you leave short

558
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 1: on a golf course. Whatever sports analogy you want, you

559
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 1: want to use, you will not. You will throw incomplete

560
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,160
Speaker 1: one hundred percent of your screen passes, if you're justin fields,

561
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: if you bounce the ball to a wide receiver, all

562
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 1: of these things are true.

563
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 3: I just defaulted.

564
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 4: He was just having a flashback to some but asking

565
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 4: out circumstance.

566
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:00,959
Speaker 2: I was not.

567
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:02,199
Speaker 3: I was then.

568
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: I mean sometimes I'd go three for five. Sometimes I'd

569
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: go oh for four and oh for four and go whoa.

570
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,959
Speaker 1: But like that's okay, you you'll never you never know

571
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: what could happen. So get past that fear. And if

572
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 1: some if if you like someone and and you're talking

573
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 1: to them and you're getting that vibe back, okay, go ahead,

665
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 1: I shot my shot with Pam and when we first

666
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,160

667
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: nine years.

668
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 3: You wrecked that guy nine years? Well, never together again.

673
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: the right people were together in that situation.

674

Speaker 3: little did you stare in his eyes. It's not like.

679
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: Dropped to zero and get with the Hey I'm stealing

00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: your girlfriend. They should know they should have never stayed together.

00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 1: It's one of those things. Yes, we'll say dated on

00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 1: have been the sign, right there, we're together for nine years.

690
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,600

692
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 3: What's a question.

00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 4: How about a fresca at Fox Sports Radio at Swollen Dome.

694
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,600

Speaker 1: How to find out what's trending in the wide world.

701
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: The sports managed going to tell you that the Mets

702
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 1: now have a four game leading the lost column over

703
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,840

00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 1: Dodgers just beat the Reds.

705
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 3: It's Chris Purfett.

706
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 6: Well, you just did my job there, so I guess

707
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:50,840

708
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 3: Good, Just go to the next hurry. You know.

709
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 6: Well, you know what, I'm kind of worried because last

710
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 6: time you talked about Pam on the air when I

711
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 6: was around, she ended up calling in when you were

712
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 6: complaining about how she did laundry.

713
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 3: That we we we still have that discussion.

714
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: I see on the laundry guy, I do the laundry.

715
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: I do the laundry. When she doesn't like, I gotta

716
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 1: do it again.

717
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 6: And this is where this is why I have a

718
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 6: clip of her saying on the phone, you are full

719
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:15,920

00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 1: Tigers weren't very good.

734
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:49,640

748
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 6: but we had some other stories to really talk about,

749
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 6: and hey, you know, not everyone is getting cut. Some

750
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 6: make the roster and make people happy, including preseason star

751
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 6: for the Dallas Cowboys James Houston, who winds up who's

752
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 6: been a bit of a phenomenon for them in the preseason.

753
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,320
Speaker 6: He makes the final fifty three man roster and probably

754
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 6: he was going to see some work here soon, pass

755
00:34:56,840 --> 00:35:00,960

757
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:07,280
Speaker 6: and I will still forever have his throwback Giants Tommy

758

765
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,880

Speaker 1: that plays Eddie Murphy's Party all the time.

779
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 3: That makes us great.

780
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:10,680
Speaker 1: I don't think if Eddie Murphy had a radio show,

781
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 1: they would play Party all the time.

782
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 3: You're probably right.

783
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: Guh, you can't understand it. Why you want to hit me?

784
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:21,760
Speaker 3: I'm Rick James. That's different. It's different.

785
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,919
Speaker 1: He's the producer and wrote this different song.

786
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 3: Different anyway, So go watch the video. Is I get It?

787
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 3: I get It?

788
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: I get it yep. Two different stories involving everybody's favorite

789
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 1: upset NFL superstar Michaeh.

790
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 3: Parsons.

791
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: One involves a trade rumor one involves what his head

792
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: coach said today. Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer said that

793
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 1: he wouldn't get into the specifics of what went on

794
00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 1: when he met with Michah Parsons because he didn't wear

795
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: his jersey laying down on the table during Friday's preseason game,

796
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:05,279
Speaker 1: but he did say he thinks that Parson's going to

797
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: be available opening night against the Eagles budd He did

798
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: say that potentially he could be limited.

799
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 3: In the game.

800
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: Depending on how things go between now and the beginning

801
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: of the season, so it could be limited now. This

802
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,280
Speaker 1: also on the heels of report today on social media

803
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 1: by a guy with a check mark. He's got fifty

804
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 1: thousand followers. It says hey deal on the table with

805
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and Packers for Micah Parsons. Parson's gonna get

806
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,879
Speaker 1: forty five million dollars a year right now. I love this,

807
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: but both of these are actually related. Okay, because we

808
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: told you in the beginning, this is more personal than

809
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 1: anyone wants to think it is. It's it's past the

810
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 1: point of money. This is Jerry Jones and Micah Parsons

811
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 1: and and Micah Parson's agent being at odds publicly with

812
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,439
Speaker 1: insults going back and forth between the sides. This never

813
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: happened with Jerry Jones and anybody else. Michah Parson's made

814
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,959
Speaker 1: it personal early and laying on the table like that's

815
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 1: you know. We talked to Jason Cole early in the show,

816
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 1: and he's been covering football for forty years.

817
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 3: I've never seen a player do that, right.

818
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons wants out the reason this has become a thing,

819
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: Why this trade er. It doesn't matter if this rumor

820
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 1: is true or not.

821
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,319
Speaker 4: I love the write up from from Yahoo Sports. We'll

822
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 4: get to that in a minute.

823
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons is going to get forty or forty five million.

824
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,600
Speaker 1: He's going to get that from his next team. His

825
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 1: next contract is gonna have a two in front of it.

826
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:33,839
Speaker 3: Right.

827
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: If you think it's gonna be oh, it's gonna be

828
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 1: a three year forty million dollars deal. It's gonna be

829
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: a TJ. Watt kind of deal. Not happening. This is

830
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 1: the best defensive player in the NFL. He's getting a

831
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,880
Speaker 1: contract with a two in front. It's gonna be forty

832
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,440
Speaker 1: some million dollars a year. This is what the best

833
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 1: defensive player in the NFL who's twenty four is going

834
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: to get. This is how it goes. So if Jerry

835
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 1: Jones says, well, we thought we had a deal, well

836
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: they didn't obviously because Mike Parsons and his agent thought, well,

837
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,879
Speaker 1: we can get more money than this. Jerry Jones isn't

838
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 1: suddenly gonna go from whatever the deal was to forty

839
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: five million dollars a year. That's not gonna happen. So

840
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: tell me how this ends. Tell me how this ends

841
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 1: with anything other than Parsons being on a different team.

842
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 1: Jerry and Micah Parsons can have the can can can blink,

843
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: can have a staring contest until we think someone's gonna

844
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: blink and I'm gonna I'm gonna Francis, I'm gonna do

845
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 1: all of this. But eventually Michael Parson's gonna leave and

846
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 1: he's not gonna play he's gonna sit out, and Jerry

847
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: Jones gonna have to sit there and say, man, I'm

848
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: losing this negotiation. At some point, Jerry's gonna have to

849
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,000
Speaker 1: sit there and say, now I need the best possible

850
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 1: outcome instead of the best outcome, the and most. The

851
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 1: best possible outcome is I trade Micah Parsons. I get

852
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: a bunch of draft picks. We have money saved up

853
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: to spend on other players. Because that's where this is going.

854
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 1: Micah Parsons is gonna get way more money than Jerry

855
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 1: Jones thinks he's gonna be able to pay him. That's

856
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 1: how this is gonna end.

857
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 4: Try to fight it out. I mean, I'd be curious

858
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 4: to see what kind of numbers were spoken. Is sweet

859
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 4: nothings all those months ago before you know that pesky

860
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 4: agent was gonna get involved, and certainly his history of

861
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 4: holding guys out and contentious negotiations is well established along

862
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 4: the way. I love the speculation on the trade. We'll

863
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,839
Speaker 4: go back to that for a second. The beginning of

864
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 4: this article, and I want to know if it was

865
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,320
Speaker 4: Ai written or actually someone Do you believe in Spuds

866
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 4: Mackenzie wearing an NFL hat.

867
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:32,280
Speaker 3: If you do get excited.

868
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:35,440
Speaker 4: A secret of the NFL source known as Ricky, who

869
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 4: used the images of the aforementioned celebrity dog and his

870
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,359
Speaker 4: Twitter avatars, back at it with a rumor about the

871
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 4: Packers and the Cowboys and a deal.

872
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: That's why it doesn't because because it doesn't matter. But

873
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,800
Speaker 1: you're going, that's the money he's he's gonna get forty.

874
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 3: But that's where we keep getting back to.

875
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,239
Speaker 4: I'd love to see what the actual numbers and what

876
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 4: the guarantees were, because that's really what matters. Right when

877
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 4: we get to it, it's it's a dollar more than

878
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 4: than Hendrickson, and you know that's great, But what's the guarantee?

879
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 3: Right?

880
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 4: Does it get him and make him feel satisfied? And

881
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 4: you're again negotiating with a guy who got a fully

882
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,760
Speaker 4: guaranteed deal for a quarterback. He's the guy that brought

883
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 4: this all in the play, right, Yeah, So don't tell

884
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,879
Speaker 4: me that that isn't in the background of all this

885
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:21,399
Speaker 4: in terms of.

886
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 3: Dealing with him.

887
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 4: But but going forward, like Michael Parsons has always struck

888
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:26,880
Speaker 4: me as the guy that he just wants to be

889
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 4: on the field. So he's the pouting kid there that

890
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 4: it's not necessarily the unhappiness, Like I think the two

891
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 4: can can work in parallel. They cross over obviously in

892
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 4: the end game, but that it's just I want to

893
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 4: be out there.

894
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 1: But eventually he's gonna have to not He's got to

895
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: make that decision that he's got to make that decision

896
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: of I'm not going out there. That's why that's the

897
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,799
Speaker 1: next thing we got to see, which guy longer it's

898
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: Michah Parsons has to say I'm not playing because if

899
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,279
Speaker 1: he still shows up and plays, then why does Jerry

900
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 1: Jones ever have to pay him?

901
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 4: He's gonna pay week three, like Evan Smith showing up

902
00:41:58,920 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 4: all pissed off.

903
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: We have more on this story and more on a

904
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: big positive story on cut
