Right, he comes in, he coaches 330 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: the Mavericks, They trade Luca Right? 331 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 3: Is he really up for that? 332 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 6: Now? 333 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 3: Am I up for whatever? This? 334 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: This craziness is. Even though Cooper Flagg is coming, Am 335 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: I up for this? Because this was really bad? He 336 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't signal he's okay with going unless he's ready to go. 337 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: And if you're the Mavericks, I get how you could say, 338 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 1: we don't want to give you permission, But do you 339 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: really want a guy coaching your team that you don't 340 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: that he doesn't want to be there? Of course not, 341 00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,839 Speaker 1: So you're gonna have to fi. They're gonna figure out 342 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: some kind of trade. It's not gonna be Karl Anthony 343 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: Towns for Jason Kidd, but there's gonna be some kind 344 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: of of maneuvering where the Knick's gonna have to give 345 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: stuff up to get him. But this doesn't happen unless 346 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: the Knicks get Jason Kidd. Jason Kidd doesn't put his 347 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: future coaching future with Dallas at stake unless he knows 348 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: I'm getting to the Kicks. The Knicks don't put this 349 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 1: out there and now this going on unless they know 350 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,839 Speaker 1: they're getting Jason Kidd. This is not like I mean, 351 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,599 Speaker 1: this is a big day. This tells me that the 352 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: Knicks coaching search is basically done and it's just gonna 353 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: be the Knicks and the MAVs haggling over whatever the 354 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: price is, the you know whatever, some kind of deal, 355 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: whatever it's gonna be, that's they're gonna haggle over. But 356 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: now after this happens, this doesn't get this far unless 357 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: it's going to happen. So Jason Kid's gonna be the 358 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: next head coach of then. 359 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 4: Well, the beauty of it, and also it unravels and 360 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 4: solves some of those well heretofore unsolved mysteries in terms 361 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 4: of timing and who knew what and when. As to 362 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 4: the Luca donchen strade, we can always talk about the 363 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 4: Laker part and folks can deny what they knew, what 364 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 4: they didn't know. But from the Maverick side with Jason Kidd, 365 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 4: now it makes more and more sense that he had 366 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 4: no idea any of that was going down because he 367 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 4: took this stiff upper lip and we looked at the roster, 368 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 4: and I was intrigued by it. Like, obviously a lot 369 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 4: of risk in terms of age, health and everything else 370 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 4: when you talk about Kyle and Anthony Davis, and certainly 371 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 4: it bore out that way, But it was a squad 372 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 4: with Clay Thompson as well. They're like, all right, this 373 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 4: could be interesting, and then you win the lottery and 374 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 4: you get Cooper Flagg. But this still floats out. That 375 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 4: means you're still having I want the access to the 376 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 4: months of text messages and transcripts of phone calls of 377 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 4: still fighting that battle months later after Luca was traded away. 378 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 4: So yeah, it certainly lends itself to a all right, 379 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 4: we need we need to break up and peel out 380 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 4: of the driveway. 381 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: Exit out about it, Fresca, Exit Swollen Dome, the Jason 382 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: Smith Show with my best friend Mike Harman. 383 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 3: I'm telling you it did. 384 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: You don't get to this level when a guy has 385 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: a job unless it's gonna happen. May take a little 386 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: bit to figure it out, but Jason Kidd next head 387 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: coach of the next It's happening.

We've kind of 428 00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 5: been crushing it. 429 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 3: So can you add another couple of jobs? I feel 430 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 3: like you're slacking. 431 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 5: Oh touching, I'm looking for Mark. Okay, I'm looking for Mark. 432 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 3: That's Syracuse cheap man, Eyracuse. 433 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 5: Bill just came in today that that alert from the 434 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 5: Burs's office. That's probably a beautiful thing. I was somehow, 435 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 5: I have myself convinced that was on the other side. 436 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 3: Of July for it. 437 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 5: But no, that was today. What are you? 438 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 3: What are you class in ninety ninety six? Right? 439 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 5: I am ninety six ninety six. 440 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 1: So did the letter say, hey, congratulations alumni Jason outay, Hey, 441 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 1: by the way, we need some money. 442 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 5: It doesn't anything. It's just say you get an alert 443 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 5: and it's just going to your mid slice and your 444 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 5: Versus account has been updated. And then you go in 445 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 5: there and you kind of squint and peak with one eye, 446 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 5: and then you look at it, and then you look 447 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 5: at the five twenty nine and what's left of it? 448 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 5: We'll say one of that? 449 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 3: All right? 450 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: So if you were betting now that he's here, Rogers 451 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: is in. He signed one year, thirteen million. Maybe he's engaged, 452 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: maybe he's married, maybe he's not. If I said to you, 453 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: how does this play out this season for the steel is, 454 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: what would you tell me? 455 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 5: I mean, look, he's better than Mason Rudolph. He but 456 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 5: he's not good and he's got no allegiances there whatsoever. 457 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 5: And it's an arranged marriage that he delayed as long 458 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 5: as you possibly could. So I don't think any of 459 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,239 Speaker 5: that bothes particularly well for them now that they are 460 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 5: an established team. This is not the joke ass check. Sorry. So, like, 461 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 5: I don't think it's going to undermine them the way 462 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 5: it did there. You know, Like this is very different 463 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 5: than him knowing that he had Salah under his thumb 464 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 5: from the Gidda up and doing everything he could to 465 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 5: undermine that guy and make that as messy as it 466 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 5: could be. I don't think he's got that sort of 467 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,360 Speaker 5: malson is hard for Mike Tomlin, at least not yet. 468 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 5: It probably it probably accrues pretty quickly with him. But 469 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 5: so like, I don't know, like they're in the hunt 470 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 5: every year and it's a good defense, and like I 471 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 5: don't know, you know, everybody makes the playoffs now or 472 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 5: everybody's you know, pretty much in it unless you're the Jets, 473 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 5: you know, around around Christmas. So I think it'll feel 474 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 5: like a lot of Steelers seasons. I think Mike Tumblin's 475 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 5: going to be very accustomed to this. Like the last 476 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 5: three years of Ben Roethlisberger, it's a lot like this, 477 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 5: A bunch of passes into the slot, you know, five 478 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:39,479 Speaker 5: to twelve yards downfield and a guy kind of patting 479 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 5: his stats at the end of his career, who every 480 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 5: once in a while wi on courk a few throws 481 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 5: to make you remember what was But guys, he does 482 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 5: not want to get hit anymore. He will throw the 483 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 5: ball into the ground in half a second rather than 484 00:20:53,640 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 5: risk anything to do anything of particular, you know, expertise, 485 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 5: what do they do every year? You know, I think 486 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 5: it just will be another Stealers season where they're right 487 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 5: around five hundred. You know, at some point in the season, 488 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 5: maybe they get three or four games up, and then 489 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 5: at some point in the season they'll be, you know, 490 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 5: right around five hundred, and they'll have something to play 491 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 5: for in the final two or three weeks, and that'll 492 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 5: be that they're not going to go anywhere in the playoffs. 493 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 5: Heat there's not going to be a Peyton Manning type 494 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 5: exclamation point towards the end of this guy's season. The 495 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 5: last one of those was his last MVP, which is 496 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 5: further and further in the real review. Maynor because it. 497 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 4: Kind of feels like we're hitting the stage where we 498 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 4: do with the NBA the regular seasons all finding good 499 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 4: What are you doing in January and for Pittsburgh that 500 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 4: hasn't been a lot. 501 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,400 Speaker 3: Know, but it's still a. 502 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 4: Lifetime contract for Mike Tomlin unless he decides to lead, right, 503 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 4: I don't know. 504 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 5: This could bring the whole thing down. Now if this 505 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 5: goes worse than this, if this goes like it did 506 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 5: last year, where we're talking at week ten and it's like, 507 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 5: wait a minute, how could you know Garrett Wilson and 508 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 5: Briest Hall and all these guys have been better with 509 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 5: Zach Wilson than they are you know what I mean 510 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 5: with Anon Rodgers, Like if we hit Defcon five and 511 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,479 Speaker 5: he's ripping people on McAfee and he's taken shots at 512 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 5: ownership and nobody, you know, the rest of the locker 513 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 5: room thinks he's a third and guys individually now are 514 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 5: losing money because of him because you know, they're not 515 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 5: being in position to make place and he's playing favorites 516 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 5: and whoever his lazard becomes, you know, that guy gets 517 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 5: like in the interpersonal politics spell out onto the field. 518 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,120 Speaker 5: Like if that stuff happens, then I think my tom 519 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 5: has cooked because like Tomlin risked his reputation to put 520 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 5: his football operations on hold until the middle of June 521 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 5: for this guy. He basically had his offensive coordinators spinning 522 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 5: his wheels for months waiting for this guy to get 523 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 5: to town. And they bring in that calf, and you know, 524 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 5: most of the offseason, all the way up until mandatory 525 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 5: mini camp, he will have never spent any time around 526 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,239 Speaker 5: the new quarterback. You know, like the whole thing is 527 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 5: pretty messy. Now again, I think we'll play decent enough football, 528 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 5: and they're well enough coached, and they have a defense, 529 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 5: and they have a great special teams and a great 530 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 5: kicker like and the Margins are swimming this league, so 531 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 5: all that probably keeps them afloat. But if it doesn't, 532 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 5: and if he checks out around Thanksgiving, you know, basically 533 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 5: says you could play somebody else. We saw them sick 534 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 5: of getting hurt and kind of starts inferring that on 535 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 5: his Buddy's TV show, then I think ownership is going 536 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 5: to have to look at like Tomlin and be like, 537 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 5: hey man, we told everybody that expectations were raised and 538 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 5: this had to be a different year, and now we 539 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 5: look like a joke. Now we look you know, this 540 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 5: must be what it feels like to wake up and 541 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,959 Speaker 5: be Woody Johnson. Every day. I don't like it, you know, 542 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 5: so do I think he could torpedo? I think he could, 543 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 5: because there's no way you're gonna tell me. Omar Khan 544 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 5: goes into Tomlin's office as as coach. I just got 545 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 5: off the phone at his agents, and look, just give 546 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 5: me two or three more weeks, and I think I 547 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 5: can get him here by Eastern Hey, coach, I know 548 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 5: it's you know, good Friday, and I said, I thought 549 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 5: he'd be here, but but look, just give me another month, 550 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 5: you know what I mean. Pretend you're running a football 551 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 5: team in the interim, and I think I can get 552 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 5: the quarterback here, you know, by by Memorial Day. Oh hey, coach, Look, 553 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,919 Speaker 5: I'm really really like, boy, I think July fourth is 554 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 5: really solid. Like I can solidly tell you you'll have 555 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,199 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers as your quarterback by July fourth? Is that 556 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 5: is that okay with you? Like that's That's not what's 557 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 5: going on here? This is this is five thousand Tomas. No. 558 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: And here's the thing, Jay, is that we talked about 559 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: this last week and and I'm with you. 560 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 3: If this doesn't work for Tomlin, like that's it. 561 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: Like you can only get so many chances to try 562 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: to build a team, you know, when when you're trying 563 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: to pick a quarterback. But what's crazy to me is 564 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 1: that is that he's been okay, hey, with the guys 565 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 1: he's trying to pick, has been justin Fields and Russell 566 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: Wilson and now and now it's waiting for Aaron Rodgers. 567 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 3: Like if you're gonna go down, hey, go swinging. 568 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 5: Hey. 569 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: We spend a lot of money because we believed in 570 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: Sam darl Or we believed in another guy. 571 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 3: Hey, right, that stuff I would get. 572 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: But this is like, hey, I'm okay with potentially getting 573 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: booted out after shopping and the clearance been for a 574 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: quarterback for the last four years. 575 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's kind of odd and like when you look 576 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 5: at how they're built and what their strengths are and 577 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 5: like in the real term, short term, and that's what 578 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 5: we're talking about when we're talking about Ben Roethlisberger three 579 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 5: years after he's already cooked, but we keep running them 580 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 5: out there, and we're talking about the Russell Wilson thing 581 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 5: they tried last year with Fields for one year and 582 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 5: then this it's all about trying to win this next 583 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 5: sleeping game. The best six games fan for me, the 584 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 5: most sustainable, the one that looked like it was on 585 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 5: an up swing, and especially with what the run game was, 586 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 5: Sparks starting to do in the red zone to meet 587 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 5: with the four and two south the field right, remember, 588 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 5: and he just he started to play some of his 589 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 5: best football when they cut his kneecaps off because nobody 590 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 5: other than Mike Tomlin wanted to see Russell Wilson now. 591 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 5: And then that was good for four to six weeks, 592 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 5: and then the wheels fell off, and then unfortunately Field 593 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,880 Speaker 5: got hurt, and then you know, there was no going back. 594 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 5: But like, the odd thing to me is I would 595 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 5: have just brought Fields back. 596 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 7: I mean, that's what I mean. 597 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 5: I would have just gone ahead and said, look, him 598 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 5: and Warren together in the pistol is going to invigorate 599 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 5: our run game. It's going to help our offensive line out. 600 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 5: We're going to be a ball control defense because I 601 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 5: mean a ball control offense, because that's what we need here. 602 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 5: And like he was starting to cut down on the turnovers, 603 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 5: and I think the best thing for them was to 604 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,239 Speaker 5: make you defend the quarterback in the run game, and 605 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 5: now they've gone so far from that. To a guy who, 606 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 5: like I told you we'll just throw it into the 607 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 5: fifth row or throw it into the ground in two points, 608 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 5: you know, two seconds that he doesn't like the way 609 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 5: that play is developing, and he says it might result 610 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 5: in him getting crushed, and I just I coupled with 611 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 5: there's not going to be enough big plays to DK 612 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:18,680 Speaker 5: medcalt to offset the negative runs and the spiked balls, 613 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 5: and I just I just don't buy it. I don't 614 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 5: think like him coming in this late with Arthur Smith. 615 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 5: To me, that's just really like that's a middle singer 616 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 5: to their offensive staff. And if I'm those guys, I'm 617 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 5: not feeling great about this. Whereas you wouldn't have to 618 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 5: put up an a in FBS with with justin Field. 619 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 3: This is true, all right? 620 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 4: Well, now he's Jason's guy there with the New York 621 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 4: Football Jets. 622 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 3: Let's go to another veteran quarterback. 623 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,479 Speaker 4: It looks like Kirk Cousin is going to show up 624 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 4: for mandatory mini camps and and say and try to 625 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 4: shop his wares once again. 626 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 3: I mean, how does this play out? 627 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 4: How uncomfortable thing is going to be for Michael Pennix 628 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 4: and for the folks around that yeah office, he's got to. 629 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 5: Show up Hey, look at me. I'm making more money 630 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 5: than that guy. And if you want me to just 631 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 5: stand here and hold a clip for it, I can. 632 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 5: But I'm not going to violate my contract. I'm not 633 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 5: going to forfeit anything. And yeah, if you think this 634 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 5: is awkward, then you should be getting saw my salary 635 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 5: and get me out of here. I mean, at this point, 636 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 5: I think they've you know, they've undermined themselves in terms 637 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 5: of getting obviously clearly getting something done before we get 638 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 5: to camp. And in the end, they're gonna have to 639 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 5: eat the money that they didn't want to eat to 640 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 5: move them regardless. Now, I'm sure the owners thinking a 641 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 5: couple of quarterbacks get hurt, you know, and contending themes, 642 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 5: and I might, I might have a market, but I 643 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 5: just don't think that these other guys are going to 644 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 5: want to pay the whole the whole salary, you know, 645 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 5: whether it's now or whether it's because they their quarterback 646 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 5: is hurt in August. So I I don't know, man, 647 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 5: I don't I don't see it. And I think he 648 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 5: needed to get ahead of this.

Generations. Hey, this goes back to when 886 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 4: we were kids this all began.

Mentally, if you're Edmonton, 895 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: you got to go on the road. I'm expecting this 896 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 1: series to be three to one going back to Edmonton, 897 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: and well, that's kind of we're seeing it so far 898 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: with the Panthers up five to. 899 00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:35,919 Speaker 4: One, looking a lot like the Knicks. I thought they'd 900 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 4: respond better, but I guess. 901 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,879 Speaker 1: Not nix you, but I tell you it happens when 902 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,359 Speaker 1: when you get broken and the oilers look like they've 903 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: been broken tonight by the Panthers.

Yes, you could criticize 1047 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 1: the Thunder for blowing the lead in Game one, for 1048 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: the Pacers and Halliburton not showing up they need to 1049 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:39,400 Speaker 1: in Game two, but virtually everybody is criticizing ESPN because 1050 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 1: of the broadcast. No one is a fan of the broadcast. 1051 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: And again I didn't really get to see the broad 1052 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,839 Speaker 1: you know, everything Ben until this weekend because Game one 1053 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 1: were on the air. But you see that people talking 1054 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 1: about after going it doesn't feel like the NBA Finals. 1055 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 1: It feels like it's a game in February. There's no 1056 00:46:56,440 --> 00:47:00,359 Speaker 1: real decoration of the court. Well they super imposed, Yeah, well, 1057 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,400 Speaker 1: by no, that's whole thing, right, That's my point. 1058 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:04,239 Speaker 3: So it didn't feel like the five. 1059 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 1: That was a big criticism after game We didn't feel 1060 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:07,759 Speaker 1: like the Final felt like a regular season game. 1061 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 3: The booth is still trying to figure. 1062 00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 1: Out who they are, especially when here's your booth and 1063 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,000 Speaker 1: the rumors Oh yeah, Doris Burke might not be doing 1064 00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 1: this anymore. 1065 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:15,879 Speaker 3: Wait, everybody loved Doris Burke. 1066 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:17,759 Speaker 1: No, no, So now someone who's doing this could be 1067 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:19,759 Speaker 1: a lame duck and could be out right, this is 1068 00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:21,399 Speaker 1: this is bad, right. You don't want you don't want 1069 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,200 Speaker 1: your broadcast criticized. So what happens for Game two? But 1070 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 1: ESPN we're gonna super impose a Larry O'Brien trophy on 1071 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,319 Speaker 1: the court to make it look that way. And that 1072 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:32,439 Speaker 1: got criticism and it's still getting criticism that the booth 1073 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:35,440 Speaker 1: is not great. It doesn't feel like the NBA Finals. Now, 1074 00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,360 Speaker 1: there is part of it being it's Oklahoma City and Indiana. 1075 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 1: It's not Lakers Nicks. It's not the Lakers and the Heat. 1076 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: It's not the Celtics and Warriors. Right, So I get that, 1077 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 1: but I understand the criticism of it. But that's not 1078 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,399 Speaker 1: But I'm gonna take this in a different direction here, 1079 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:53,719 Speaker 1: like why is this? Why is this out there? Like 1080 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 1: why is ESPN getting criticized like this? It's happening because ESPN, 1081 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:04,280 Speaker 1: more than anybody else, listens to all the outside noise 1082 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:07,240 Speaker 1: when it comes to criticism of them as a network 1083 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:10,200 Speaker 1: or the on air product. They listen way too much 1084 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,879 Speaker 1: to what is said on social media, what people say 1085 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:15,879 Speaker 1: on television. It's like there's people's jobs to say, Hey, 1086 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 1: they're saying this on social media. We gotta get away 1087 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:22,319 Speaker 1: from this, right, Like social media hated Chris Berman every 1088 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: time he did, they hate what happened. Chris Berman basically 1089 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,359 Speaker 1: does nothing for ESPN anymore. Right, everybody hated. I don't 1090 00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: like the Monday Night Football booth. I don't like the booth. 1091 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:31,879 Speaker 1: Ratings were fine. I don't like Steve Levy. I don't 1092 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:34,320 Speaker 1: like Jason what happened. We gotta change the book. We 1093 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 1: got to hire other guys. Now, gotta spend a lot 1094 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 1: of money because nobody likes those guys. They spend way 1095 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,600 Speaker 1: too much time listening to what is said on social media. 1096 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 1: And I'm not even getting in the political sense of 1097 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:45,400 Speaker 1: when one person says something about one political party. I 1098 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: just mean as far as what their content is. They 1099 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: are so reactionary to whatever people say on social media. 1100 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:54,839 Speaker 1: And okay, now, so they heard the response after game one, boy, 1101 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,280 Speaker 1: it doesn't feel good. The Larry O'Brien trophy is not there. 1102 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:01,440 Speaker 1: So some executive just said, let's superposed Larry Brian Trophy. 1103 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 1: So let's listen to the people. Lit's listen to the 1104 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,360 Speaker 1: people on Twitter who are saying, oh, it seems so 1105 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,279 Speaker 1: small time where people are not going to watch the 1106 00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 1: finals because of this, Like like you know what, have 1107 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:13,799 Speaker 1: a spine and do and do the best broadcast you can, 1108 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,279 Speaker 1: right for if not every place is perfect? Right now, 1109 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:18,080 Speaker 1: every place is perfect and clearly you know, hey, Fox 1110 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 1: has you know, issues just like you know other places do. 1111 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 1: But I will say this as far as when you know, 1112 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:24,879 Speaker 1: I know, when we do stuff for radio and TV, 1113 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,880 Speaker 1: stuff gets out there, stuff is said, stuff is It 1114 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:29,960 Speaker 1: depends if it's sports wise. Now I'm saying it's staying 1115 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 1: in the sports world. If the sports world stuff is controversial, 1116 00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 1: it's controversial and it's said, and nobody don't back away 1117 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 1: from it. This is now you get away from the 1118 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,560 Speaker 1: sports world, that's a different story, right I'm not saying 1119 00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:43,120 Speaker 1: that stuff away from but you talk about sports because 1120 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:43,840 Speaker 1: that's what we're sticking with. 1121 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 3: And this is the presentation of the finals. ESPN. They 1122 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 3: have always cared way too. 1123 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 1: Much about what what people think who have a dial 1124 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 1: in their hand when they're there trying to you know, 1125 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 1: with focus groups for radio, whether it's focus groups for television, 1126 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 1: they care so much what the ten people in a 1127 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 1: room think, or they care so much what five thousand 1128 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 1: people on Twitter are saying, like it seems like it's 1129 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 1: all look at at the biggest trending topic is ESPN's 1130 00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:11,400 Speaker 1: NBA final. Well no, really, only five thousand people are 1131 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 1: tweeting about that, but it seems big because it's what 1132 00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:16,560 Speaker 1: they More people are tweeting about SGA or something else. 1133 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:20,240 Speaker 1: But let's focus on that. And that's always been ESPN's 1134 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 1: achilles hea. They listen way too much. Right, I'll tell 1135 00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:24,840 Speaker 1: you this story. This is my favorite story of ESPN 1136 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 1: is that they listen to focus groups all the time. 1137 00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:27,880 Speaker 3: Right. 1138 00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 1: They take the shows. They would take our shows playing 1139 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,480 Speaker 1: for folks with ten people.
