I'm going out Friday night, 68 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. But but the whole thing 69 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 4: was it's more expensive. I know this sounds crazy, more 70 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 4: expensive for the bags. 71 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: It's more expensive. So I ship it to him, which 72 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: costs you how much costs twenty eight? Ship cost fifty 73 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: to take one way. And remember I'm like making four stops. 74 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: So every every time I take, I go from you know, 75 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: Dallas to DC to Houston to New Orleans. 76 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 4: That's kind of my track. It's gonna cost me at 77 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 4: fifty dollars every time. That's why that's two hundred something 78 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 4: dollars in bag fees.

They didn't think that it 117 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 6: was helpful. They were very upset about what happened during 118 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 6: that meeting.

So this is where it got interesting, right. 127 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: You saw the shirts, you know the ww ED Yeah 128 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: I thought welfare. Yeah, notty lost but money for thirty years? 129 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 3: What do you want? I know? 130 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: So this is where the conversation you get government cheese 131 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: at a ball, Go ahead, stop it. 132 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 3: Government cheese was good for real cheese. That's it, as 133 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 3: only time is good. 134 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: No, this is where it gets complicated, right, because the 135 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: WNBA hasn't made a profit in a general sense of 136 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: making profits for the last for all these years, and 137 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,679 Speaker 1: it's averaging since it started around ten million dollars deficit 138 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: each each year. 139 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 3: That's what it's operating on. 140 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: But when you start to dive deeper into it, more 141 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: so than just the simple math, is where it gets complicated. 142 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: I think the average person, especially on X Instagram threads 143 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: in each site isn't doing the deep dive. 144 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 3: So WNBA players are simply saying this, Rob. 145 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: We are saying most leagues in the NBA, NHL, NBA, NFL, 146 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: they're making around fifty percent of the revenue that comes 147 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: in fifty percent. The WNBA is only making how much 148 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: you think, thirty, no, twenty, no, ten, no nine percent. 149 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: So they're saying, hey, we're only making nine percent, our 150 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: counterparts are making fifty percent of the revenue driven. And 151 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: then somebody was say, well, what revenue and what's going on? Well, 152 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: certain good things have happened in favorable for the league, 153 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: which was gonna be in turn favorable for the players 154 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: who are essentially the product. The league has secured a 155 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: new lucrative two point two billion dollar media rights deal 156 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: to begin in twenty twenty six next year, which is 157 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: expected to significantly increase revenue. So if you don't stand 158 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: on it now, Rob, you know this from business standpoint, 159 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: how am I gonna get it? If I just go 160 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: with the flow, all right, give me nine percent of yet, 161 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,240 Speaker 1: then I'm not gonna get any of that two point 162 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: two billion. But if I say, hey, we got to 163 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: negotiate and go up to you know, two en fifteen 164 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: to twenty twenty five, whatever, however high they can take it. 165 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 1: That's to me what simply, that's just simple good business man. Also, 166 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: the attendance is up twenty six percent, you and I 167 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: have talked about that, twenty three percent. 168 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: Viewership is up. 169 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: And also merchandise, which is huge because you get percentage 170 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: of those sales is up forty percent, nearly half, nearly 171 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: fifty percent. So simply, what they're doing is saying, hey, 172 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: if there is money to be made, which clearly there 173 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: are not to mention two hundred and fifty million dollars 174 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: they're getting for the new the new WNBA teams, a 175 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: new franchise fees that goes to ownership, that's split by ownership. 176 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: That's right, that players don't get that, right, But all 177 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: of this is going into a pot. No, no, but 178 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: that doesn't go into a pot. That's what owners get. 179 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: That's part of why owners they get the expansion fee, 180 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 1: because you're letting somebody in on your right. What I'm 181 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: saying is if you're taking this information, you're saying nobody's 182 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: investing in, not thinking they're going to potentially make money, right, 183 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: you're not allowing new leagues. A new franchise has come 184 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: without the idea of we're gonna make money. And so 185 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: I think what we're seeing is simply them saying we 186 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: want more of what is to come, what is being 187 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: had two point two billion in the media rights deal, 188 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: forty percent, merchandise is up, twenty six percent, attendance is up. 189 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: We want more, And I think that's fair. And the 190 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 1: thing about a protest is it's not comfortable. Usually people 191 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 1: don't like it. You don't like the timing of I 192 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: wish you did it differently, y T shirts? 193 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 3: Why not this? 194 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,359 Speaker 1: That happens whatever you pick at George Floyd to Vietnam 195 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: students against Vietnam War, like, no one's ever gonna like 196 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: when you protest, you're nearling the it's not the time, 197 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: it's not the place. So generally a protest is to 198 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: make you uncomfortable, to draw conversation, to have, you know, 199 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: some type of dialogue about these things. 200 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 3: And that's what they did. 201 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 1: So they got to find a way continue to grow 202 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: the league, continue to allow the lead to become make 203 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: money and become profitable. But I'm not mad at somebody 204 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: trying to say, hey, if more money is coming in, 205 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: our counterparts are get more, why can't we I think 206 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: that's you. I would I mean, I have the mes 207 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: speak for myself. I would advocate for myself as well. 208 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: I totally disagree. And I dare the WNBA players. I 209 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 1: dare you walk out. I dare you to walk out, 210 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: Go ahead and walk out. I double dare you, cause 211 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: despite Caitlin Clark, despite all this stuff, they still lost forty. 212 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:52,319 Speaker 4: Million dollars this past year. There was no bonanza. She's 213 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 4: at her height. 214 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: If you're losing money at her height, how in the 215 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: world going forward? 216 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 3: It ain't going up that orderically. 217 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: You just had the biggest bump and you still lost 218 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: forty million dollars. I dare a union to walk out. 219 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: I dare you players, because it ain't gonna be pretty. 220 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: You can't collect money for thirty years. This ain't some 221 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 1: new league that started and you understand it gonna take 222 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: a little while and make money. They were subsidized by 223 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: the NBA. I know firstthand in Detroit. They didn't want 224 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: the shock the commissioner. They begged them please. 225 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 3: I know. 226 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: Personally that when they were winning no championships, they couldn't 227 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: sell tickets. They could not sell tickets. They're a full 228 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: building because they were giving them away. And all I'm 229 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: saying is you gotta crawl before you walk. And I 230 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 1: understand wanting more, but are you accounting for the thirty 231 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: years a red ink that under normal circumstances you would 232 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: not have had a league? These these football leagues that 233 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: keep starting up, usf ulfl all these things. 234 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 4: Everybody love that. All I'm over told is everybody loves football, right, 235 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 4: why don't those leagues last? 236 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 1: You know, mean those leagues have folded because they don't 237 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: sell They don't sell tickets. 238 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 4: The TV numbers aren't good enough. And you can say 239 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 4: whatever you want. 240 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: Kaylin Clark when she's not playing, the ratings went down 241 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 1: fifty five percent. 242 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 3: Those are facts, not feelings. 243 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 4: When she wasn't gonna announce that she wasn't gonna play 244 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 4: the WNBA, the tickets dropped off the face of the earth. 245 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 4: I'm not saying you're not entitled to money, but it's 246 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 4: based off of what you bring in. Devin Booker's making 247 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 4: gonna make seventy five million dollars a year, not because 248 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 4: they like him, not because he's a man. That's the 249 00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 4: revenue that is brought in right and over time time 250 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 4: that can happen. But come on, man, this is way 251 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,079 Speaker 4: too premature. And if I'm running a w NBA, or 252 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 4: I'm the NBA that owns the w n b A, 253 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 4: I'm not going for the yokie dope because Caitlyn Clark 254 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 4: showed up and now we're gonna there's still plenty of 255 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 4: buildings where six thousand people show up. 256 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:25,319 Speaker 3: Okay, And then that's my point. I hear you twisted, 257 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 3: don't get it twisted. 258 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: I double dare them to walk out because you won't 259 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: have a league. There's no guarantir. There's no guarantee the 260 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: league will sustain another five, ten, twenty years like that. 261 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: No business, I don't care the model. They can be 262 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: a restaurant, it could be a movie theater, it doesn't matter, 263 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: is guaranteed to succeed. That's just business, one on one. 264 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: No business is guaranteed to succeed. That's why I brought 265 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: up the football all. We only won NFL. 266 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 3: They've been NFL. It's only one and I agree with that. 267 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: But when you go back to the only thing if again, 268 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: if you're looking at this, if you're the WNBA, who's 269 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: seeing this growth when you look at the numbers, and 270 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: they're also saying, all right, it took sports leagues decades 271 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,319 Speaker 1: to get viable as well, because when you look at 272 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: the NBA thirty years, the NBA took them forty years 273 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: to make money. Thirty years. Yes, if you look at it, 274 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: they took NBA lost. 275 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 3: Who owned the WNBA? 276 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: Was that outside or did the league subsidize to even 277 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: make that viable. It's what I'm saying. The NBA was 278 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: its own entity. Right, Wait, right, but I'm talking about 279 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: the NBA. I'm saying the NBA didn't make money. They 280 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: lost thirteen million dollars in nineteen eighty. That's the year 281 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: Magic comes in, Berg comes in and then things take 282 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: off and they changed. That was forty years of the NBA. 283 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: They still lost ten thirteen million dollars, which if you 284 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: did the math into twenty twenty five, that'd be forty 285 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: eight million dollars. So all I'm saying is it takes 286 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: some time. 287 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 4: We think what it's the same you think during that 288 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 4: till no, no, no money. Okay, I'm saying, do you 289 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 4: think because I was watching the NBA and I was 290 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 4: going to games, they didn't have four thousand people. 291 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 3: They didn't have five thousand like. The league had. 292 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: A up and down period, There's no doubt about it. 293 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: That was a down period before Birden Magic. Yes, but 294 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: there was some glory times before. But they were making 295 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: like that. No, but they were considering. Teams were considering 296 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: how to get out of it, how to get out 297 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: of business. How they were tired of those teams that 298 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: they weren't making money. So I'm not saying the WN 299 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: be able to ever be the NBA, but I'm saying businesses, no, 300 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: businesses take time. Lost so many business that we now love, 301 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: we don't know the history that it took him twenty 302 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 1: thirty forty years to become profitable. That's why people keep 303 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: investing in these business Even Amazon, it took him a 304 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: decade to have a profitable year. 305 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 3: It just takes time, is all I'm saying. And I 306 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 3: understand why the players, Yeah, I mean it took the 307 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 3: thirty years. 308 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: They have their Messiah and they still lost four Now 309 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: that's why if you negotiate where you have, you you're massigah. 310 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 3: But but you lost. 311 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: If you had if you had a plus on a 312 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: balance sheet, then maybe I'd say, Okay, I saw it. 313 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 4: I saw the future. No, no, we want now, we 314 00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 4: want charter flights. Now we want you start adding all 315 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 4: that that. They didn't have that before. So the losses 316 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 4: were minimal, now they're gigantic forty million. They got plenty 317 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 4: of empty buildings, TV waitings. Let's let's be realistic. I'm 318 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 4: not a This is a supply and demand market, right. 319 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 4: The reason that the Dodgers paid shoel tiny seven hundred million. 320 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: Go look at the stern styles, go to the games. 321 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: Go look at the number on us like two point six. Now, 322 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: just the thing on the news, two point six. They're 323 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: heading toward another four million, four million. 324 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 4: Four million people are going to Dodger games. That's all 325 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 4: I'm saying, Like, like, you can't deny that.

And you see 519 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: what they were being down Dallas is Dallas in right now? 520 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: Jerry is doing Jerry waiting on to sign people. And 521 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: now you gotta disgruntle Michael Parsons. What's going on down there. 522 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 10: In Big d Yeah, I mean Dallas. Dwasings as aggressively 523 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 10: as they've ever done. This is this particular Mic Parsons 524 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 10: situation is really messy. And then you know, I don't 525 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 10: I don't know if you guys played the sound bite 526 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 10: or anything, but Jerry Jones, you know, kind of goes 527 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 10: after Michael Parsons in a weirdly passive aggressive way about 528 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 10: missing games and about stars missing games, and Jones is like, well, 529 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 10: even if I signed Marca Parsons to a long term deal, 530 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 10: you know, there's no guarantee that we're even going to 531 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 10: have him because he's missed I think I think Jones 532 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 10: says six games. Yeah, uh, and it actually Parsons only 533 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 10: missed four. But basically, you know, Jones kind of taking shots, 534 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 10: trying to win the court of public opinion. It's not 535 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 10: working because he's he's lost. In my opinion, he's lost, 536 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,479 Speaker 10: you know, his fastball. Jerry Jones has in terms of, 537 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 10: you know, just being the salesman that he that he 538 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 10: once was. And this situation is it just Dallas has 539 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 10: waited so long. They've they've procrastinated their deals one after 540 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 10: another that they're losing their you know, they're creating ill 541 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 10: will between them and they're ours. And even when they 542 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 10: do get the contract and they pay them exorbitant amount 543 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 10: of money, you know, there's still pension left over from 544 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 10: being mistreated during the contract negotiating process. This is what 545 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 10: Bill Belichick used to do with his players. But you 546 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 10: know what solved it winning a Super Bowl Dallas. Meanwhile, 547 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 10: it has been a mess trying to make the playoffs, 548 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 10: and they're probably going to have just as much problems 549 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 10: in the NFC East this year, which is got the 550 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 10: Eagles and the Commanders. 551 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 3: But don't they Jerry eventually rolls over. 552 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 4: I mean like he did it with the Dak thing, 553 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,199 Speaker 4: you know, like forever, it looks like they didn't have 554 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 4: any real confidence or belief that he was that guy, 555 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden he got a sixty 556 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 4: million dollar contract right before the season started. I don't 557 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 4: understand that. The longer you take, the more it's gonna 558 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 4: cost you. So I just don't I don't get it 559 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 4: at all. What the what the game plan is? If 560 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 4: you're going to keep Michael Parsons, that's one thing. If not, 561 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 4: you could get a haul for him, right, you should 562 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,159 Speaker 4: have traded him. If you don't want to sign a 563 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 4: love well, it's just it's it's mind boggling er. 564 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,719 Speaker 10: I don't understand it either. They did this with Ceedee 565 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 10: Lamb too. You know, he's trying to maybe he's trying 566 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 10: to pinch pennies, he's trying to save himself some guaranteed 567 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 10: millions and try and work, you know, some conditions into detail. 568 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 10: I don't know why he's not just paying the best 569 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 10: defensive player in football maybe with the exception of Miles Garrett. 570 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 10: Why why don't you just pay the guy? You know 571 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,919 Speaker 10: he's going to be a core member of your defense 572 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 10: for forever. And like you said, the time to trade 573 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:30,119 Speaker 10: him was a few months ago, right draft? Probably? Uh, 574 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 10: And so you know, I don't know, I don't like. 575 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 10: I just I rarely like what Jerry Jones is doing. 576 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 10: So I don't I don't feel like I'm giving you 577 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 10: guys something totally unique here. 578 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 3: But no, no, no, I'm in it. 579 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 10: To make any sense. 580 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hard to be for it to be unique 581 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: because we've seen this over and over. Hey, he is 582 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: Henry mckennaugh, Fox Sports, NFL reporter on with the ocouple, 583 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: Rob and I kelvin Washington on a Magic City Monday. 584 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: Let's just stay with owners that kind of do weird stuff. 585 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: Let's go down to Cincinnati. Let's go to the Cincinnati Bengals. 586 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: What the heck is going on there? When you have 587 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: Shamar Stewart their first round edge rusher. They well drafted, 588 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: but haven't been able to sign and he's the last 589 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: first round to not be signed. And this is a 590 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: team where they can't sign Hendrickson, they can sign this 591 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: and they have Joe Burrow coming out saying, Yo, let's 592 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: get things done. 593 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 3: What's going on there? 594 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:23,199 Speaker 10: Yeah, different team, kind of a different problem, but you know, 595 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 10: same storyline of contract problems. Where the Bengals are well 596 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,400 Speaker 10: known to be cheap, they recently started opening up their 597 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 10: pocketbooks for you know, at first, it was kind of 598 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 10: like an expanded scouting staff, Like they used to have 599 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 10: the smallest scouting staff in the NFL. Why because their 600 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 10: ownership group didn't like to pay scouts because it's not 601 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 10: a very public facing role. But as we've seen with 602 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 10: the draft, it's the way to build a super Bowl team. 603 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 10: So they realized that they had to start spending there. 604 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 10: That was where the first ship to fall. And then 605 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 10: we've seen years later, you know, the Bengals spending all 606 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 10: this money on Joe Burrow and now these two receivers. 607 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 10: So there are the precedent is starting to break. Like 608 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 10: it's not quite in the same way that we're talking 609 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 10: about Jerry Jones, just like Madness, is this doing the 610 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 10: same thing over and over again, expecting a different result. 611 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 10: Bengals are starting to turn the side, but they've already 612 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 10: had this really spendy offseason with the receivers. Trey Hendrickson 613 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 10: is trying to get a new deal or try and 614 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 10: get traded, and now you know the sort of tension 615 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 10: around that position. Shamar Stewart is entrenched in trying to 616 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 10: negotiate more money in his rookie deal. The rookie deals 617 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 10: are especially hard for teams and players to agree on 618 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 10: because most of it is already negotiated by the NFL's 619 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 10: collective Bargaining Agreement with the NFLPA. So like the deals 620 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 10: are basically done finefield delivered when players get drafted, but 621 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 10: sometimes players like Schmar Stewart, they want a little bit more. 622 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 10: Maybe it's more guaranteed money, maybe it's bonuses, maybe it's 623 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 10: some thing that they can kind of fiddle with. And 624 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 10: teams don't like to say yes to that sort of 625 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 10: thing because then it creates a whole precedent that either 626 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 10: their next first round pick is going to try and get, 627 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 10: or another pick on another team will then try and 628 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 10: negotiate it, and that owner. Let's say it's the Patriots 629 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 10: is going to call the Bengals and be like, what 630 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 10: the heck, why did you agree to give schmar Stewart 631 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 10: more money? Now we have to figure out how to 632 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 10: do the same thing for our guys. So that's kind 633 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 10: of why there's a log jam there. And add in 634 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 10: the fact that the Bengals don't have the best verification. 635 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 10: They're having this ongoing thing with Trey Hendrickson, and there's 636 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 10: sort of this echo chamber of criticism from the players about, 637 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 10: you know, ownership not getting them the money that they deserve. 638 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 3: Hey, Henry, one last thing. 639 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,719 Speaker 4: I'm being convinced more and more the lines won't make 640 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 4: the playoffs. 641 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 11: Here. 642 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 4: We got another Pro Bowl defensive linemen, but they just 643 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 4: got so many changing parts. A lot of different things 644 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 4: happen year, injuries, you know, it just seemed like a 645 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 4: lot of stuff has happened to them. 646 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 3: Where are you on the Lions? 647 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 4: Because I think that the division is better, I really 648 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 4: believe that, And I think losing two coordinators, we saw 649 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 4: that in Philadelphia. They took a step back before they 650 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 4: went back to the Super Bowl after losing two coordinators. 651 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:23,719 Speaker 10: Sure, yeah, so, I mean, yeah, the coordinator thing, I 652 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 10: think it might even be like under discussed given how 653 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 10: crucial those two guys are. Ben Johnson, we'll see what 654 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 10: he is as a head coach, but he was the 655 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 10: best offensive coordinator in football without a doubt last year. 656 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 10: And Aaron glen Over in New York. Now, I think 657 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 10: that team he's got, he's got his New York right, 658 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 10: so he's got like a big job ahead of him. 659 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 10: But he's a guy that I think can really has 660 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 10: already established a different culture. And that's division is crazy. 661 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 10: I mean, the Vikings, the Packers. 662 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 3: Something's got to bears right, you know what I mean. 663 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying, Like it's it's a better division. 664 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 4: And you got Dan gamble at the hell. 665 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: I listen to neither one of you's.

So here's what I'll say 668 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 10: to side with you now because I'm playing I'm playing 669 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 10: it both ways here, but I have the Lions winning 670 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 10: their division in my postseason prediction. I did a way 671 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 10: too early postseason prediction when the schedule came out a 672 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 10: few months ago, and I picked the Lines to win 673 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 10: the division. But I but here here it is. I 674 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 10: had them losing to the Vikings in the first round, 675 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 10: missing it the Packers missing uh miss. 676 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 11: I know. 677 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 10: I'm sorry. I'm not making I'm making two enemies in 678 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 10: this one. But yeah, the Packers got bumped. They didn't 679 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 10: make the playoffs. I kind of am worried about Jordan 680 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 10: Love going into this year.
