We are streaming there. 15 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 2: There's been some speculation, some debate about whether or not 16 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 2: it's a simulcast. I know some people would feel very 17 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 2: strongly about the term simulcast on this show. 18 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 3: Well, we are simulcast. Yeah, I'm with you. 19 00:00:56,600 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 4: No, it's short for simultaneously, way simultaneous. 20 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:02,319 Speaker 1: Look it up. 21 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I'm not the sharpest knife in the 22 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 4: in the drawer. But when you're simulcasting, that means that 23 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 4: you're in multiple places where you can listen to somebody. 24 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 4: So don't get offended like y'all such sissies on on 25 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 4: social media. Ye are can't stand y'all with you? Man 26 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 4: with you go put your face in a hole. 27 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know from time to time it's not the 28 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 2: worst thing in the world. No, not for them. So 29 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 2: from from that over to this, the NBA is back, 30 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 2: all right. The quote unquote second half of the regular 31 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 2: season started last night, got underway with some NBA action 32 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: around the league. We mentioned Amazon Prime at a couple 33 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: of games. You had the Epistons and the Knicks, Celtics 34 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 2: and the Warriors, and so post All Star Break, the 35 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: NBA's back, and the NBA cannot help but find themselves 36 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,919 Speaker 2: in the midst of another problem. They try and figure 37 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: out and they try and fix. I just watch it 38 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: and go. None of it matters in the regular season, 39 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 2: So what's the point. And if we're being honest, the 40 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 2: first round, maybe the second round doesn't matter either. 41 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: Okay, So you got to dig deeper into that for me, 42 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 1: because why doesn't. 43 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: Matter because it's a different season everybody ramps up for 44 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: the postseason, and you're either trying to get to the 45 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 2: draft or you're trying to set yourself up for the 46 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 2: postseason because everybody is judged based on the postseason performance. 47 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 3: The regular season is cool. 48 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: But in order to get to the postseason, you have 49 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: to be successful enough in the regular season. Cool, it 50 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: does matter to it. 51 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 2: Rea, And there's bad games throughout the course of the 52 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 2: regular season, there's players that aren't participating. They can throw 53 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 2: whatever awards they want as part of the reason for 54 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: you to play. And then we get to the postseason 55 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,959 Speaker 2: and we realize, oh, we got to sit through seven 56 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: of these potentially just to get to the conference finals 57 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 2: and the NBA Finals. There's about four teams that can 58 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 2: win a title, and it's most likely going to be Okay, See, 59 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 2: that's what it feels like to me. 60 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 1: Okay, well, that's this year and looking at in a vacuum. 61 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: But I guess my point is, like, what's the difference 62 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: between tanking and then game management or load management. 63 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 3: You're still trying to win. If it's load management. 64 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 4: If you're tanking your purposely, this would be my interpretation 65 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 4: of it, you're purposely trying to lose. So if I'm 66 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,119 Speaker 4: pulling a guy, and how are you doing that by 67 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 4: pulling my better players out of the game. 68 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: And then if you're doing load management, who's not playing 69 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: the game? Your better players are being pulled out of 70 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: a game. But if it's load management, you're pulling them 71 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: out of the game with a strategy of saying, I'm 72 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 1: trying to preserve them for the long haul of a 73 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: long season, so I want them to have as much 74 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: in the tank as they possibly can can have still 75 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 1: be competitive to make the postseason, and then them have enough. 76 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 4: Gas to be able to get through the postseason to 77 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 4: the championship. Whereas I think tanking, you're pulling them out 78 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 4: with the intentions of of losing, Like we want to lose, 79 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 4: that's why we're pulling our better players out. And in fact, 80 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 4: you might even be pulling them out to get rid 81 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 4: of those players too. That's a part of NBA politics 82 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 4: as well. They'll pull you out and. 83 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: Let's like it on tangent. Let's let's stay on this stuck. Okay. 84 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: So here's here's where I would say. What's interesting about 85 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: that is does load management start at the beginning of 86 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: the season. If you have this long term thought. If 87 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: it's a long season, we've got to protect our best players. 88 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: Do they start looking into load management at the beginning 89 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: of the season. 90 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 4: I mean, depending on how old that player is. Andy Helments, 91 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 4: I think it's it's all, it's it audit is yes. 92 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: The answer is a yes. And the reason why bring 93 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: this up is because I think one of the issues 94 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: with the NBA right now is it's a league that 95 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 1: has gotten to the point where someone like Jonas will 96 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: say the regular season is meaningless because nothing matters to 97 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: you get to the playoffs. And that's fair. There's a 98 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: lot of sports leagues that play a lot of games. Baseball, 99 00:04:54,680 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: playoff baseball, even hockey, playoff hockey phenomenal, right, phenomenal regular season. 100 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: All right, they have their their nights, but it's good 101 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: and bad. But the truth of the matter is when 102 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: you have such a long playoff series outside of seating 103 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,119 Speaker 1: for the playoffs, it takes away from what the regular 104 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: season is. I think every single professional sports league battles this. 105 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: So to me, when I'm looking at the NBA issues 106 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: and I think there's more than just the tanking or 107 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: game management, I look at it and say, game management 108 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 1: starts at the beginning of the season or load management. 109 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: Excuse me, because you're looking at the game management. That's 110 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: a new term. I like it, But you're looking at 111 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: it for the extent of the season. Now, if you 112 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: want to say, hey, we're tanking, well, then to me, 113 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: it's an entirely different strategy than load management. Taking is 114 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: like you're getting rid of your best players. So when 115 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: you're talking about, hey, we're trying to set our best 116 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 1: guys for load management and tanking, they ain't there. Like 117 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: you're moving on, you're clearing cap space, you're trying to 118 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: accumulate draft picks, because that's ultimately your capital to either 119 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: go rebuild by getting a star player and building up 120 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: that roster again, or drafting the future and finding a 121 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: player like Cooper Flag or Darren Patterson whoever is in 122 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 1: this outstanding freshman class in college basketball. Now, Like that's 123 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: how you'd go about doing it. So when I look 124 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: at like Adam Silver making tanking this big issue, I 125 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: actually feel like he's missed again because this isn't the 126 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: issue with the NBA. Like how many viral things have 127 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: you seen where we watch guys travel constantly and you're like, 128 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: why don't they call it, like, why can't they call 129 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: the game as it's supposed to be called nowadays, Like 130 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: you have officiating issues, You've got issues with allowing super 131 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: teams to happen amongst these which is plagued and created 132 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: less parody in the league. More than anything else, the 133 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: fact that you're allowing like the multiple all stars, these 134 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 1: power you know, teams to get together, Like that's been 135 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: what's really taking place with the past couple of decades. 136 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: That's changed the parody and competitiveness. All the stars aren't 137 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: spread out there together so again, and these are things 138 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: that like I don't know that you're going to be 139 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: able to fix in one off season, but trying to 140 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: get teams away from tanking, I actually feel like I 141 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: kind of sided with Mark Cuban on this. And I 142 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: don't know if you guys talked about some of the quotes, Yeah, 143 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: we did so, and then if you want to review 144 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: it again, we can talk about this. But but here's 145 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: why I sided with them a little bit. Is if 146 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: if you're a team that decides the tank, who ultimately 147 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: suffers the consequences, well the fans to a degree, but 148 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: more the team, they're the ones who lose revenue. They're 149 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: the ones who lose money. 150 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 4: But they stink exactly what you're tanking because they stink, 151 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 4: so you're already they're already suffering, right, the team is 152 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 4: already suffering. 153 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: They tank. You could look at it in two ways. 154 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: I would actually say that if you stink, then you're 155 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: kind of already there. You don't need a tank because 156 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: you already stink. Teams that tank are teams that are 157 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: are purgatory. They're not one of the top teams that 158 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: win a championship, but they're not one of the worst either, 159 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: because they're already in the mix for getting a lottery 160 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: pick and trying to rebuild. So they're actually more of 161 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: a team that's in the middle of the league, and 162 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: they tank so they get back down to the bottom 163 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: so they can get some of those lottery picks, or 164 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: they can put themselves in a position to be able 165 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: to clear cap space and build it back up. But ultimately, 166 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: the team that suffers the most is the team that's tanking, 167 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: like they're taking that on Like I kind of look 168 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: at it this way, think about real estate, and actually, 169 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: I'll go close to home for you guys. Obviously, there 170 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: was the fires on the Pacific Palisades, Right, Yeah, have 171 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: some of those houses been rebuilt? Oh god, no, no, okay, 172 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: but why have they not been rebuilt? What's so hard 173 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: to obtain in California permitting? It's a form of regulation. 174 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: What Adam Silver's doing, in my mind, is he's actually 175 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: making it harder for these teams that need to rebuild 176 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: and want to try to do a quick flip. He's 177 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: making it harder by creating more regulation around it. So look, 178 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: I understand people may not agree with this, and again 179 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: it doesn't always have the best interests of the fan 180 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: of mine for that season, but long term it does. 181 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: And I think if you look at the essence of 182 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: what Mark Cuban's actually saying is he's bringing up a 183 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: really good point. How many people are priced out now 184 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,439 Speaker 1: from going to games because everything's gotten so damn expensive. 185 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: And that's the reality of just what it is. I mean, 186 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: by by the way, it's not just the NBA. I mean, 187 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: go look at World Cup tickets for the summer. Yeah, 188 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: my goodness. That's that's the part of Cuban's Twitter rant, 189 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: if you want to call it that, that I totally 190 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: agree with. Is the cost for these families to try 191 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: and go to games to buy merchandise. 192 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 3: All that's it's ridiculous. 193 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: And it it feels like it's it. And look, I'll 194 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 1: say this about like going to the Falcons games, and 195 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: I think we did a report on this what Arthur 196 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 1: Blank was hoping to do, and I think I don't 197 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: know if LeVar you were there for the show, we 198 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: were talking about how they've actually kept concession prices low 199 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: for a lot of the families and fans who want 200 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: to go to Falcons games. You know, the ticket prices 201 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: are ticket prices, but it's a great atmosphere. Like chance 202 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: to call a game this year and I told you guys, 203 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: it was like it was live like that. It was 204 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: a wild it was a wild like environment. It was awesome. 205 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: Now the Falcons did win, but like at the end 206 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: of the day, it was a great experience. Like the 207 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: game obviously ended up being, you know, a fun game 208 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: to watch, was kind of close and all that, but 209 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: just I'm thinking to myself, they had a fun time, 210 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: like even though their team then they did a fun time. 211 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: And so there are some teams and franchises that I 212 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: think do it well. But I think Mark Cuban's trying 213 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: to point out something that to me has as much 214 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,599 Speaker 1: to do with it as anything else, and that's the 215 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: fan experience. It's been taken away, and I think there 216 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: is a reality to when I was a young kid 217 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,559 Speaker 1: growing up Washington, Cleveland Calves. Did I go up saying, Oh, 218 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: it's the Calves They're going to beat the Chicago Bulls 219 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: with Michael Jordan, Hell No, But I wanted to go 220 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 1: see them try. They were close, but they were close, 221 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: and look, that was part of it, Like you were 222 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: seeing a team that was competitive that almost got there 223 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: but didn't quite get there. But I would also say this, like, 224 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: if you take away a team's ability to make that decision, 225 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: ultimate is gonna hurt them. In Tank, did the Cleveland 226 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: Cavs ever get Lebron James? I mean Luca basically got 227 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: to the Mavericks because Cuban admitted that was a strategy 228 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: to implement it. I just I feel like, if this 229 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: is the issue that you really want to harp on, 230 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: if you're Adam Silver in the NBA, you're kind of 231 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,839 Speaker 1: missing it. In my opinion, man, issue with your league. 232 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 4: I think that's why it's the fan and I'm gonna 233 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 4: stay I'm gonna stay true to that. I think the 234 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 4: fans suffer when a team tanks. That's who suffers, because 235 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 4: it is about the fan experience. Pro sports sports in 236 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 4: general are our geared towards catering to the family, and 237 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 4: when you tank, and and and the Cleveland cavid Leers, 238 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 4: that's a great example because this was a team that 239 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 4: was that they had talent. I mean they had what 240 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 4: Elo was on that team. 241 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 2: Was on there. 242 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I was also years that you're not remembering 243 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: where they weren't good. Well they I get that, it's Cleveland. 244 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 4: But with that being said, but with that being said, again, 245 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 4: if a team is trying to be competitive, as a fan, 246 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 4: you could still get behind that. You can boo, you 247 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 4: could be upset, but you could still say they came 248 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 4: out and they tried when you're talking about tanking. 249 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: But no, no, be hold on, even the guys if 250 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: they're like this is why this argument never works with 251 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: the NFL. Do the players that are there weeks sixteen, 252 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: seventeen eighteen, if the starters aren't in, are those backups 253 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: going in there saying well, I'm going to land today. 254 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: They would be starting if they weren't. If they weren't. No, no, 255 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: But that's not the point. If you're talking about effort, 256 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: but guys doing all they can, I mean have to, Yeah, 257 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: but that's their livelihood. That's not my focus. My focus 258 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: is I'm going to play the best players to have 259 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: the best opportunity to try to win. If those players 260 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: are available and they're not playing, that's tanking. And if 261 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: you're you have your best players available then for instance, 262 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: but that's tanking slash. You could call it load management, 263 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: whatever you want. And then look again, I like a games. 264 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: It depends on it depends on what your your thought 265 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 1: process is. If you're not saying, god, I'm not saying 266 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: it's ethical, hear me out. I brought up the Pacific 267 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: paliss and the fires on lot for this reason. There's 268 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: people who want to build back their home. They want 269 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: to do it now. They probably have the means and 270 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: capability to do it now, but they're not able to 271 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: so they can't ramp up and start that building process 272 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: to move back into their home to be able to 273 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: you know, start that new life again or build that 274 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 1: new team again, because of overregulation. And that's where I 275 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: feel like you're getting out a little bit. Here is 276 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: it's getting so nuanced. I mean, would you just let 277 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: five bullet points of different ways that they're trying to 278 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: try to curtail tanking. 279 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 2: I think I think this is a clear sign that 280 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 2: Adam Silver and the NBA care more about the TV 281 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 2: partners and the gambling partners than they do the fans. 282 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 2: Because if you cared about the fans the way that 283 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 2: you did, yeah, there would be some sort of an 284 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 2: edict around the league to be like, hey man, make 285 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 2: it more affordable for fans, make it more affordable to this. 286 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,239 Speaker 2: A lot of this was pushed on because they're paranoia 287 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 2: about gambling and players take you know, like what this 288 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 2: guy's resting gambling partners. I wonder if this is on 289 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,719 Speaker 2: the up and up. I think that this is all 290 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 2: about the TV revenue and the gambling revenue. I think 291 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: the fans are third in this in this order, which 292 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: they should be number one exactly. That's the bottom line. 293 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 2: It's a consumer driven industry. 294 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna I'm gonna say some but you're not 295 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: gonna like it that the fans aren't what pays the bills. 296 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: It's the TV media rights. 297 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 4: H but TV rights deals are based off of how 298 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 4: many people are viewing those those commercials exactly. If you 299 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 4: take away the fan, the TV rights don't even matter 300 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 4: like that. 301 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: There's two there's two different experiences because you can say that, right, 302 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: the stadiums can be empty, but if people still watch, 303 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: there's still TV media rights deals. 304 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 4: Well, and first stadium is ticket sales concession. 305 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: Exactly, but people people are still watching. That's why the 306 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: TV media rights deals are what they are. And by 307 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: the way, let me go a step further. What about 308 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: leagues like the w NBA. 309 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 4: I mean, they're supplemented by by the by the NBA. 310 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: There's subst there's subset of the NBA, but there's also 311 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: they're still going for extreme value as far as the 312 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: franchise rights, and they still have TV media rights deel 313 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: that if you look at the economics of it, they 314 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: would say, well, they're not obviously to the viewership of 315 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: the NBA, but someone's watching, and there's clearly not as 316 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 1: many people there in person as there is watching on TV. 317 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 1: It's so based off I understand you want the fans 318 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: to be like first and all this, but that's not 319 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: how these guys are looking at They're looking at like 320 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: a business. 321 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 2: I think there's a difference between the fan that wants 322 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 2: to go to the game and the fan who wants 323 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 2: to watch at home. 324 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: In the sense, by the way, if you're taking you 325 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: have that choice. You don't have to buy the ticket 326 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: if you know the team's tank and which is which 327 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: is not a decision that you make again like it 328 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: happens to the season or you know, going into the seat. 329 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 1: Like the Browns when they adopted that strategy, I don't 330 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: think anyone didn't think that they weren't like they were 331 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: going to be competitive, like they openly kind of admitted 332 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: like what they were kind of doing. 333 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 2: I just think that the product at home has gotten 334 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 2: so good that why would you want to go to 335 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 2: get Like there was a story we did about a 336 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 2: guy who went to every single NFL stadium this year. 337 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 2: He watched a bunch of these games, went to every 338 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 2: single stadium, and my big question was why, Because there's 339 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 2: still something connected to an end person experience. I totally 340 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 2: get it, but I think that the number of people 341 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 2: who fill up a stadium NBA, for example, what eighteen 342 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 2: thousand on a good night, on a really good night 343 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 2: at an NBA game, eighteen thousand if you're up to 344 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 2: the rafters. There's a lot more people to tune in 345 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 2: and out of that game on TV if it's on 346 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 2: team and I think that I think that Adams Silver 347 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 2: with with the TV partnerships, with the gambling paranoia. I 348 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 2: think he looks at that is we'll address the fans 349 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 2: later and hope they stick around. We got to make 350 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 2: sure that things are right on the TV side and 351 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 2: present a better product because more of those people are 352 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 2: watching at home. 353 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: It's just too good now by the way, the players 354 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: will adapt to this, you know, because this isn't This 355 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: is also isn't like a singular issue that just the 356 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: the NBA side is trying to figure out and fix 357 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: with the teams, because load management is a portion of 358 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 1: it being players choice too. I mean, how many NBA 359 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: players have we heard about who want to be you know, 360 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: traded or go to another team because their team held 361 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: them out of games for load management like the Max 362 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 1: Crosby situation in Las Vegas. Have we heard about an 363 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 1: NBA player who was frustrated about the team shutting them 364 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: down for load management? 365 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 2: No, that guy would sign an extension. I don't necessarily 366 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 2: agree with that. I think guys are. 367 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 4: I do think guys are frustrated when they get load 368 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 4: man management, because that's a way of saying, we don't 369 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 4: want this player, and we don't want to play this player. 370 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 4: Load management and in some cases is a reference to 371 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 4: we're not going to play you. We're trying to move you, 372 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 4: and they'll sit you until they're able to move you. 373 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 4: That is true, that's very What would you call okay? 374 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,959 Speaker 4: What would very true? What would you call Lebron this year? 375 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 4: Probably load management because he's very he's very old, very old. 376 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: Elements of that, but there's elements of that with all Stars. 377 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 3: Hold on, hold on, hold on. 378 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 4: That's like, that's example, because. 379 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 3: In LA that's that's okay. I take that example. 380 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: There's other examples of load management for a for a 381 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:50,199 Speaker 1: lot longer than looking at one singular person that's an 382 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: outlier Lebrod, you're combining the two. If you're saying that 383 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: they want to sit him out to move him, that's tanking. 384 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 1: That's not load management. That's not necessarily tanking. 385 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 3: Though, I like, it's not that black and white. 386 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 2: You're your nurturing tone with Lebron, like he's very old, 387 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 2: he's old. 388 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: He is It's like it's like a dog. 389 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 3: That is what it is. 390 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 4: Man I didn't say like a dog, but he is 391 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 4: very old and load management could go a long way 392 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 4: if you're trying to make it to the playoffs and 393 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 4: him have enough guests. 394 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 3: But there are. 395 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: Player there's a lot of guys necessarily the reason why 396 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 1: they do load management with all these players, and it's 397 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,199 Speaker 1: either it's not. If you sit out a guy to 398 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: move him, then clearly you're not necessarily tanking, but you're 399 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: not trying to plan because you're trying to rebuild. 400 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 4: That's well, you're not playing him because you don't want 401 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 4: to play him because for whatever reason that could be 402 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 4: disagreement between away coach and player or GM player or whatever. 403 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: Player has complete control over whether or not they want 404 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: to play. Like if someone came to you and said 405 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 1: you're not playing it for load management, the player can 406 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: be like, f off, I'm gonna go play. 407 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, but they might not play them. They're not going 408 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 4: to play them. He's not going to go into the game. 409 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 4: It's not off, I'm going into the game. 410 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: You can't go into the game. They got to put 411 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: you in the game. They're not going in the game. Okay, 412 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: then here's what you do. He'd follow grievance with with 413 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: his union to the NBA and said they have to 414 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: play them. I'm healthy. I'm telling you about want to play. 415 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: They don't have to play them. You can say they 416 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: don't have to, but there would be a grievance file 417 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 1: if that was the case. You can't force a player 418 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: who's on the roster he's healthy, to not play, like 419 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Look, management, they're in street clothes. 420 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 4: You have there a lot of homies behind the scenes 421 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 4: that know a lot about a lot of things. Ask 422 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 4: them about this topic. That is not true what you're saying. 423 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, sure they can, they can foul a grievance, 424 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 4: but they do not have to play a player. If 425 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 4: they decide that they're going to move on from a player, 426 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 4: I don't care how big his name is, they will 427 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 4: sit him out. They will sit that man out, and 428 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 4: that sports that. 429 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 1: That's okay, LeVar, That's exactly what I'm talking about with 430 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: Max Crosby and the Raiders. He wanted to play. They 431 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: shut him down, They sat him out. 432 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 3: Yep. Yeah, And we don't we still don't know. 433 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: How many players have we heard in the NBA who've 434 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: been seeking a trade and made a big deal about orchestra. 435 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 4: Because it's just very normalized. So you're not going to 436 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 4: hear it as much because it's a normalized practice within 437 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 4: that industry. 438 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 3: That's all I mean. 439 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 1: It is what it is. It is what it is. 440 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't make the rules, not me that 441 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 4: does it, but I do know that for certain that 442 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 4: that is how things are handled at them in the NBA. 443 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 3: That's all I'd say. 444 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 2: It is the Dan Patricks Show here on Fox Sports Radio. 445 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 2: It's LeVar Arrington, Jonas Knox, Brady QUINNI you here on 446 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 2: FSR two pros and a cup of Joe filling in 447 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 2: for Dan and the guys.

And I was thinking about this just 494 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,719 Speaker 2: to make things easier for everybody, all right, just so 495 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 2: we can just like move along with our lives. Why 496 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 2: don't the Dolphins and Cardinals just swap quarterbacks, Like let's 497 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 2: just save everybody the trouble, like you know, the money, 498 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 2: the different like figure out a way to make that work. 499 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: It's the same situation, Like it's basically the same guy, Like, 500 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 2: let's just switch switch quarterbacks here. 501 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:45,439 Speaker 3: And let's make that happen. 502 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 2: And you know what, you know, I think about that 503 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 2: because the drama that happened with the Major League Baseball 504 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 2: Players Association where Tony Clark, the executive director, was given 505 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 2: the boot I had to resign because they found out 506 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 2: that he had hired his sister in law and twenty 507 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 2: twenty three and they were having an inappropriate relationship. And 508 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 2: I'm looking at it, going, oh, on the surface, that 509 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 2: seems really bad. And then Bob Nightingale, who covers Major 510 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 2: League Baseball, was on the Blowtorch and five seventy LA 511 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 2: Sports with Petrous Money this week and he said, yeah, 512 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 2: you know, it's tough to tell him apart. Well, if 513 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 2: that's the case, I mean, what are we doing here, Like, 514 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 2: let's I'm just telling you. So, if it's tough to 515 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 2: tell the difference between Tua and Kyler Murray from a 516 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 2: financial standpoint and a situational standpoint, why don't we just 517 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 2: swap it out and everybody moves on with their lives 518 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 2: and we can focus on the draft and other offseason. 519 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: How does that make the situation better for Arizona. 520 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 3: It doesn't. Miami, it doesn't. You never know, maybe they 521 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 3: get along better. 522 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,879 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, like there was a story back in 523 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,360 Speaker 2: the day, the Yankee swapped wives back in the day, 524 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 2: like two guys swap and listen, one of them went 525 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 2: sideways and he had a problem. The other one they 526 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 2: lived happily every after. 527 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: So you never know. Maybe to it. 528 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 2: Being intrigued by Arizona, he says, you know what, that 529 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 2: brings me to a place that that I feel like 530 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 2: I can I can work with. 531 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 3: And maybe Kyler. 532 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 2: Murray looks at Miami and he goes, all right, let's 533 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 2: give this a spin. I just think at some point, 534 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 2: at some point, we got to get to the bottom 535 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 2: of this stuff. And I find it hard to believe 536 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 2: the Dolphins are just going to cut ties and swallow 537 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 2: ninety nine million dollars in dead cap money, which has 538 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 2: been rumored. 539 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: No one said they're going to They could easily hold 540 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: on to to it for this season, you know, start 541 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: that process of rebuilding, new coach, new general manager, and 542 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 1: move forward. There's no reason like Arizona's looking at Miami like, 543 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: oh wish we had those problems, Let's go ahead and 544 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: bring that guy in here. Why not? That's not what 545 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 1: they want. 546 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 4: They're both available for a reason. I think they've had 547 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 4: an opportunity in a time to show that they can 548 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 4: play football. 549 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 3: I think, and. 550 00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 4: In proper circumstances situations, you could probably justify saying that 551 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 4: both of them could be good again. But I would not. 552 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 4: I would had my bets on that, and I would 553 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 4: not take that type of a chance or that type 554 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 4: of a risk. The swap sounds crazy. For one that 555 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 4: that sounds pretty crazy. But I mean, hey, I just 556 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 4: don't see at this point in time that being that 557 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 4: being a sensible move. I don't Kyler Murray could potentially 558 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 4: make your team a better team. 559 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 3: I just I don't know. 560 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: I don't. 561 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 4: I don't see it being feasible for for that to 562 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 4: be a reasonable swap or extinc. 563 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 2: All Right, so let me ask you as this say, 564 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 2: and if you had to guess right now, serious, Okay, 565 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:51,439 Speaker 2: this is. 566 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: Serious. 567 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 2: I am being serious in this regard. Okay, if you 568 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 2: had to put a number on the win total next 569 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 2: year for the Dolphins and the Cardinals, what would it 570 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 2: be like you had to put it just and Obviously 571 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 2: we don't know the numbers as of yet. 572 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,439 Speaker 1: Because I'll say over under set at five. 573 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 2: And a half, okay for both teams. 574 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 1: Sure, what does it matter? 575 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 3: Now? 576 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 2: If you put Kyler on the Dolphins and on the 577 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 2: cart nothing doesn't change. 578 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 3: See what I'm saying doesn't change. 579 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 1: So what are we doing? But that mean, yeah, so 580 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: why do it? And look at it from this standpoint? 581 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: You just mentioned the dead cap hit that Miami would 582 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: have to take on if they moved on from to it, right, 583 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: ninety nine million? Yeah, with post tune one designation, you 584 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: get spread that out over the course the next two years, 585 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: so you can kind of cut that in half. But 586 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: why if you're Arizona do you want to bring that on? 587 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: I mean, you'd be taking on a contract that's ninety 588 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: nine and then thirty one after so like, oh great, 589 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: we get to go pay a guy fifty some of 590 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: whatever the cap it is for this upcoming season fifty 591 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,719 Speaker 1: plus million. Now we don't necessarily believe in just so 592 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: what so we can help Miami with their problems? I mean, 593 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: the only way that anything would make sense is an 594 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 1: exchange for draft picks, and that's essentially what you'd be doing. 595 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: You'd be taking on a player, his contract, his salary 596 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: to buy draft picks. That's what would be about. 597 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 2: I think we were talking about this last week on 598 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 2: the show, and we agreed that what would make the 599 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 2: most sense from a financial standpoint and where they're at 600 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 2: and what's available in the draft and what's out there, 601 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 2: is if they, you know, both guys stayed where they're at, 602 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 2: and we give this another year, and then if you 603 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 2: decide to move on, you decide to move on, and 604 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 2: it's a better draft class and all that stuffe then 605 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 2: maybe there's more options out there. But everybody keeps saying 606 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 2: that's not happening. It's over. That's not happening, it's over. 607 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 2: We talked to Albert Breer last week when his phone worked, 608 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 2: and everyone keeps saying that's not happening. 609 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: It's over. 610 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 2: The Dolphins are done with Tua Kyler Murray and the 611 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 2: Arizona Cardinals are done. The thing that makes the most 612 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 2: sense is for them to not be done, Like financially 613 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 2: doesn't make sense for them to do that unless this 614 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 2: is the NFL's version of tanking, and the Dolphins and 615 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 2: Cardinals are like, we want one of those guys in 616 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 2: the draft, whether it's CJ. Carr, Dante Moore, you know, 617 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 2: Arch Manning, whoever next year. And this is our version 618 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 2: of tanking. So we need to rid ourselves of anybody 619 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 2: that's going to give us a better chance to win. 620 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 4: Why can't they just be moving on, new coaching staff, 621 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,239 Speaker 4: new new beginning. Why can't it just be moving on? 622 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 2: Why does it have to be a million dollars if 623 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 2: they cut them but it has not worked out them? 624 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 3: But it hasn't worked out. 625 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: I mean I get that it's ninety nine million dollars, 626 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: but it hasn't worked out. So you've gone to You've 627 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 1: gone to a new a new regime. You've gone to 628 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: a new regime. Why why is it such a problem 629 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: to think that they can't If they can't go to 630 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: different direction, A would a different coach, different GM like that, 631 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: that can't work. I know it's a lot of money, 632 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: but why do it just to do it? That's my point, Like, 633 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 1: why are you doing it just to do it? I 634 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: don't get that. I think we talked about this. Maybe 635 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: we could go to the league now will move on 636 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 1: from a head coach rather quick and not to play 637 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: into your hypothetical scenario, but is it and the best 638 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,479 Speaker 1: interest of either quarterback and either team If they do 639 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 1: a swap like this, both quarterbacks and new systems, new environments, 640 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: new personnel around them, you think either of them are 641 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: going to flourish. There's a better chance that Tua staying 642 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: through this year as a Dolphin and Kyler staying in 643 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 1: Arizona through this year as well would both perform better 644 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: having at least more continuity to being in the same 645 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: place organization and personnel that they're throwing to. If you 646 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: want to start over all again with both of them, like, 647 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: that's not a winning formula for me. So if I'm 648 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: a new head coach, I don't know that I'm looking 649 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: at that saying, especially talking to my owner, saying like, yeah, 650 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: this is you know, this is what's in the best 651 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: interest of the Dolphins or Cardinals moving forward, or for 652 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: me as a head coach. I think you'd want to 653 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: have a veteran guy that, granted maybe you don't necessarily 654 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: believe in, make him prove you wrong or make him 655 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: prove you right, you know, however you feel about it. 656 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: But financially, they are getting to a point where they're hamstrung. 657 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 1: And even if they do want to start over. If 658 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,959 Speaker 1: you're saying, oh, they're gonna tank, okay, like you know, 659 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: this would be an instance of that, Like the NFL 660 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: hasn't put in any protective measures. And by the way, 661 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: is that not the faster way. If the Dolphins went 662 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: three and fourteen next season or two and fifteen and 663 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: they have the number one overall pick and they have 664 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: their pick of Dante Moore, CJ. Carr, whoever, archpanning, it's 665 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: probably the fastest way to turn things around. It's gonna 666 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: be hard on the books, but now you've got a 667 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: rookie number one overall pick who's gonna be relati the 668 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 1: cheap for the next three or four years. So not 669 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 1: to like tie back in the tanking conversation with the NBA, 670 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: but that's the fastest way to solve the issue if 671 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: you do want to move on and take that cap hit, 672 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: do a post June one designation and make it not 673 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 1: as burdensome if you're Miami. A little different circumstances for Arizona, 674 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: But like I look at this and just say, I 675 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: don't know why they wouldn't want to see this through, 676 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: at least for this season for both players in both 677 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: scenarios to get to a better financial spot. I mean, 678 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: even with them, it's not like they still couldn't potentially 679 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 1: be in contention for a top pick. 680 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 4: And it's already been discussed with Pete Prisco that you're 681 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 4: not going to get it through free agency. You're not 682 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 4: going to find a guy that's going to make your 683 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 4: team much better than the two that you have. So 684 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 4: it's like, is your alternative of what you're doing going 685 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 4: to make you better in the short term or are 686 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 4: you looking at it being a long term situation. If 687 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 4: it's a long term, then you should give them another go. 688 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,239 Speaker 4: Because of how much money you got to pay, how 689 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 4: much money you got to eat. Nobody's going to take 690 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 4: that nut and crack it. Nobody's that No other team 691 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 4: is going to take those financial nuts and be like, Yeah, 692 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 4: we can bring this guy in and he's going to 693 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 4: be a difference maker for our team. I mean, Kyler 694 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 4: Murray may be a tab bit intriguing, but you got 695 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,319 Speaker 4: to think that the injury is connected to to what 696 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 4: Tua has had in the past, would suggest that that 697 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 4: isn't the way to go. 698 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:30,759 Speaker 1: Can I quickly ask this, like, how many teams are 699 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 1: looking for a new quarterback. Like if you had to 700 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,399 Speaker 1: put up a list, I mean Las Vegas draft number 701 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,479 Speaker 1: one overall, so they'll probably take Mendoza. They've got their guy. 702 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: The rest of the AFC West has their quarterbacks. The 703 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: AFC South, the only one you'd say would be in 704 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 1: question is Daniel Jones coming off an injury in Indianapolis. 705 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: The rest have their quarterbacks. Minnesota, AFC North, same thing, 706 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: but Raiders, Raiders, Jets, Minnesota is the three that would 707 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: come to my mind right off the top of my head. 708 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: Right but the Jets and then the Jets are legitimate one. 709 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: Raiders will solve that with the first overall pick, But 710 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: then you start looking at the rest of them. Minnesota 711 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,760 Speaker 1: that's a question mark. Well the Giants maybe you feel 712 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: like they're good for now, but could be a question mark. 713 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: But you start going through the league. I just I'm 714 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: not even sure how many trade partners there are for 715 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: Kyler too, unless Miami or Arizona's have to pay a 716 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 1: lot of that contract again, probably in exchange for draft 717 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: capital for one of those teams. Like, there's just not 718 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: that many open spots right now for quarterbacks. 719 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 2: It is The Dan Patrick Show here on Fox Sports Radio, 720 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 2: LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox in for Dan and 721 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 2: the guys up next though, Hey speaking to quarterbacks, somebody 722 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 2: who was vilified about a year ago, some revenge and 723 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:42,280 Speaker 2: the good kind. 724 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 3: That's yours here on FSR. 725 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 726 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 5: the nation.

So the Florida Senate passed the Teddy 774 00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 2: Bridgewater Act bill that would allow middle and high school 775 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 2: head coaches to use up to fifteen thousand dollars of 776 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 2: their own funds to support students. 777 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 3: That's pretty cool. 778 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 2: Transportation and Recovery Service loved that nice little happy conclusion 779 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 2: to what happened with Teddy Bridgewater.

None of the coaches 792 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: get paid enough. They didn't. Bigger budgets need bigger everything. 793 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 4: Then you got to pay out money to be able 794 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 4: to do CPR, all these certifications, so they're making money 795 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,120 Speaker 4: off of you as as coaches. 796 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 3: It's kind of crazy. 797 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: Well, Jonas would glidly let anyone do CPR on him. 798 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:14,720 Speaker 1: That's true. 799 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,399 Speaker 2: Mouth the mouth, only with my hands, mind my back 800 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 2: though funky breath, chitling breath,
