But so 41 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: give it a little context here. I just got back 42 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 2: from a vacation where I went up and down the 43 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 2: coast to California. It was wonderful. Thanks for asking. And 44 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: I know you're vacationing or working in California this week. 45 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: I'm not sure what brings you out here.

And then Ryan 49 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 2: Smith here, I don't think he's been outside a ten 50 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: mile radius of Los Angeles and anybody his entire life. 51 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 2: So I just wanted to say, what's the what's the 52 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 2: most kick ass thing about the state of California, or 53 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 2: or what's the NFL camp storyline that has the most 54 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 2: of your attention right now? And why? 55 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: Well, here's what's interesting. I'm glad you had a great 56 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: trip from Central coast to California. It's beautiful area is 57 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take that one and I'll tell you why 58 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: California's not perfect. You know, I was driving in Hollywood 59 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 1: yesterday and hit the brakes. There was a homeless person 60 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: staggering across the Street, you're like man, but but still awesome, right, 61 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: and they've got something for everyone. If you want to 62 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: live in the country, you can live in the country. 63 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: You want to live in the mountains of the mountains, 64 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: on the ocean, ocean, you want the city, can city 65 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: on suburbs, suburbs. There's plenty of great areas and great people. 66 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: And no, it's not crazy affordable, but there are more 67 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: affordable areas. But you also usually get paid more when 68 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: you live in the less affordable area. There's pluses and minuses. 69 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: I think what's funny is how much of the narrative 70 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: is anti California when young people still want to come 71 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: to California. They still put you know, La and SoCal 72 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: on clothes, they sell for teenagers and young college kids, 73 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: and people still eat it up, you know, because it's 74 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: still the California dream. Does it really exist? I don't know. 75 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with that. 76 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 3: I want to I want to vent. 77 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 4: I feel like I vibe on that, just because again 78 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 4: as the transplant, you know, I grew up in the nineties, 79 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 4: grew up in the two thousands, and that was like 80 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 4: the vision of California was still always like, you know, skateboards, 81 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 4: skateboard parks and sun and and Volcom and everything, and 82 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 4: like I even into my thirties, I was like, I 83 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 4: still want to move to California. So when I was 84 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 4: able to secure a scholarship at USC and go there 85 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 4: and get my masters and everything, I took that leap 86 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 4: humble brock. Yeah, a little bit of a humble brag, 87 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 4: But I will take that humble brag that I have 88 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 4: a master's. 89 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: Yes, I a scholarship from USCA. 90 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 3: Honestly, which is very hard to get. I must I 91 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 3: must also break. 92 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: Now we're getting less humble, but still bah ahead. 93 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 3: Either either way. 94 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 4: I've been out here for eight years now and I 95 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 4: would not trade it for anything, just because it is like, 96 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 4: as you say, I live in the San Fernando Valley. 97 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 4: Now I go to like I live among a lot 98 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 4: of people from the Middle East.

Yes, that's how Greek people say it. 113 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 3: I've always said euros in Detroit. I don't know. Maybe 114 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 3: this is just me not knowing how to say words. 115 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: No, no, I'm saying. You know, if you go to Omaha, oh. 116 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, Green Bay they call them gyros. 117 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 3: I see gyros either way. 118 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: The East Coast they call them gyros too.

Is there a bunch of downsides? Was I 124 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 4: just complaining about all the haze in the morning? 125 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: Sure, where's the where's the place that there's all positives? 126 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: Like I was in? I was in the Tri City. 127 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: He's on Monday. Tri Cities of Tennessee. Okay. The Tri 128 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: Cities is Johnson City, Okay, Johnson City, Tennessee, Kingsport, Tennessee, 129 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: and Bristol Tennessee. That's where the Bristol Motor Speedway is. 130 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: It is absolutely stunning and beautiful. And you got the 131 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 1: Smoky Mountains, you're right by the You're right by the 132 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: Cumberland Gap. You know, you got the Appalachian Fair there. 133 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: You got a lot of great things. But Okay, it's 134 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: like if you don't have a family, there ain't a 135 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 1: lot to do other than you still can go hike, 136 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: like Jay Stu likes to, you get all four seasons, 137 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: really temperate. There's no state say tax put like is 138 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: are there the things to do? There are to do 139 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: in California now? And again, it doesn't have to be 140 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: perfect for everybody. So I'm with you. I just think 141 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: we have a tendancy to hyper focus and stuff. Like 142 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 1: they have a big factory in the center of the 143 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: Tri Cities. That's a real thing. You know, it's like 144 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: you're rolling, You're like, man, Kingsport is it's beautiful. It 145 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: is beautiful, But you know there's also a gigantic factory 146 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: which runs the entire town and that's probably pumping pollutants 147 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: into the water. That's what happens there. They make plastics 148 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: there at Eastman, So you know, I mean, there's no 149 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: perfect place. It doesn't exist. Most kick ass thing about California, boy, 150 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: I think it's the cultures. It's just how homogeneous it is. 151 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: That it's so strange for other people to come here 152 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: and to see how many cultures there are. Just like 153 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: it's equally strange. You know the reasons so many kids 154 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: come back to California after going to school for a 155 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: year and get homesick. It's not just the weather and 156 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: the beach, but also they're used to seeing different faces 157 00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: and a lot of times you go to colleges and 158 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 1: that's how it's built. I just you mentioned Giddo's right, 159 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: Like everybody's got a favorite taco place, everybody's got a 160 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: favorite sushi place. You have a favorite ghetto place, like 161 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: there's my favorite Greek place. It just it's just options, 162 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: that's all. It's just options. I think that's the thing 163 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: that I options and all the plurality. What do you think, 164 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: Jase too, what's you favorite part? 165 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 6: Well? 166 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 2: First of us and for listing our academia, I have 167 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 2: what's known as the opposite of a master's degree. I 168 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: have a bachelor's degree from Calstiu Fullerton that's just above 169 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: a what do you call those general degrees from thirteenth 170 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 2: grade GEDs. Yeah, that's just above a GED good enough, 171 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 2: a good enough degree. So this is my observation as 172 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 2: I was traveling driving down the coast of California. It's 173 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 2: amazing to me how much agriculture and I googled it 174 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 2: as as she was drive and I googled it. California 175 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 2: makes up for like eighty percent of the agriculture in 176 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 2: the United States. It makes up for a lot of 177 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:19,199 Speaker 2: the agriculture around the world. There are hundreds and hundreds 178 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: of miles where you don't even see humans, you just 179 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: see crops, you just see landscape, and you know, just 180 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 2: not to get too political, it's amazing to me that 181 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 2: there is a political push to get the people that 182 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:38,239 Speaker 2: farm that land out of the state. Like who exactly 183 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 2: is going to do it? It's incredible, but it's hard 184 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: to like until you actually experience it. All of the land. 185 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: It's hard to like even think about. You know, you 186 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 2: hear these people about talk about, you know, overpopulation, there 187 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 2: are too many people, not enough resources. Travel down the 188 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 2: coast of California just once those highways says that you 189 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 2: would probably change that one I think. 190 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: I think it's a great point. I also think that 191 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: what's what's fascinating is you know you mentioned all the agriculture, right, 192 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 1: who who works in those fields? Correct? Right? What's that? 193 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: What's that going to look like? And like it's just 194 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: it's just very I moved in eighty one, moved to 195 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: California in eighty one, and the neighborhood next to my 196 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: house is is a barrio Bardio Almadina, And so I know, 197 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: you know, it's like if you went and raided there, 198 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: I don't know, half the people would probably be sent home, 199 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: sent to sent to Mexico, even though this has been 200 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: their home for you know, decades. So I think, and 201 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: this is a lot like the discussion we have on 202 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: political discussions for other countries. We don't know the details. 203 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,839 Speaker 1: You don't so many people don't understand California because how 204 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: it's sold in movies and then how it's sold news 205 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: neither are truly accurate. It's not like everywhere you go 206 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: there's a movie star, but it's not also not like 207 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: everywhere you go there's homeless people, rampant crime, and everything's 208 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: crazy expensive. 209 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 4: And you're right, that does feel almost like a bit 210 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 4: of a different nation. After a point too, you consider 211 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 4: the size of the California economy, just how isolated you 212 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 4: you you would know this, but like the Midwest and 213 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 4: the eastern coast of the United States, they all kind 214 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 4: of feel like their own single political entity. Whereas out 215 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 4: in California, this is this has always kind of been 216 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:34,439 Speaker 4: the outpost. 217 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 3: It's always kind. 218 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 4: Of done its own thing for a very long time, 219 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 4: and that culture has always reflected it. 220 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I say it's funny though, Like especially East Coasters, 221 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 2: you know, I have a lot of families coasts that 222 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: are like, you know, they always like they have that 223 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 2: sentiment like California should just be its own state, you know, 224 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,719 Speaker 2: it should just just know you don't want California to 225 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 2: be its own state. California does a lot for this 226 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 2: country economically, Culturally. We might have a bunch of nuts 227 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 2: out here and we're kind of weirdos, but we're way 228 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: ahead of the grade culturally, agriculturally, and financially. So yeah, 229 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 2: I'm not a big fan of our governor. He's been 230 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 2: telling everybody who will listen in recent months that the 231 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: this news of the great what do you call it, 232 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 2: emigration leaving of California is largely untrue, and it just 233 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: makes sense when you take a trip down California. 234 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 4: It's funny because I think we had those stories of 235 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 4: a bunch of Silicon Valley guys all talking about how 236 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 4: they would move to like Austin, Texas. And I think 237 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 4: as of like last year, I started seeing a lot 238 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 4: of stories of those guys coming back realizing how much 239 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 4: they just do not like Austin, Texas. 240 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I look in Austin. Why part of it was 241 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: Austin's changed, you know, And people would say Idaho, same 242 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: thing like California. A bunch California reasons ruin it. I 243 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: get it. I understand. I do think there are people 244 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: that have moved. I know I have friends I've moved. 245 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: I've moved for work, but I've worked. But there is 246 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: it's going to be different. It's going to be different. 247 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: Pick the state and it feels really really different. And 248 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: if you're used to this and this becomes your jam. 249 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: I think the hardest thing is getting in, getting in financially, 250 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: getting into a community, and once you feel like you belong, 251 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 1: you're good. But because there are so many people who 252 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: still are from other areas, I still think it works. Ryan, 253 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: you don't want to any of this and any of this. 254 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 6: Well, to Jason Stewart's point, I'm not from LA. I'm 255 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 6: from San Jose, California. I came down here in nineteen 256 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 6: ninety six for college and I got my bachelor's degree 257 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 6: from cal State Northrich So how about that, yeah, seasun. 258 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 6: I think the best part about where we are right 259 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 6: now is there's always something to do. Yes, you can't 260 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 6: be bored. I mean, where I'm from up north, it's 261 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 6: boring as hell, but down here there's always always a 262 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 6: party going on. You can go to a game, you 263 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 6: can go to a comedy club. It's just always something 264 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 6: on and popping. And that's why I love California. 265 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 4: That's a great point too, because, like I think, especially 266 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 4: LA is always like oh, people are too busy to 267 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 4: like go to games. But like the sports culture here 268 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 4: in LA has been utterly fantastic. Like again, like I 269 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 4: grew up near Detroit, I consider that a massive sports town, 270 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 4: but like, come to LA sometime it's hard to say 271 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 4: this is not a sports down that people do not 272 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 4: love the Lakers, the Clippers, like you can support like 273 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 4: over ten teams here. Like the only regret I have 274 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 4: is that USC and UCLA haven't been good in so 275 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 4: long that nobody's really supporting college teams really like they 276 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 4: used to, like back when you know, Pete Carroll was 277 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 4: on the sideline for USC. But like everyone perfectly comes out. 278 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 4: I've even gone to Chargers games and like you you're 279 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 4: you're a Chargers fan, Doug. You know this, Like that 280 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 4: is still a growing and impotent fan base. And I 281 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 4: think both Rams and the Chargers are finding their foot 282 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 4: in LA and just I think people are trying to 283 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 4: see how long and make sure they'll last. But everyone 284 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 4: is more than happy to come out to football games, 285 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 4: baseball games, basketball games, you name it. 286 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: So we're good. I mean, Jay Stu, You're still not 287 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: down on California even though the Angels are clearly better 288 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: than your Dodgers. I'm kidding. 289 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: The Angels are better than the Dodgers, are a better team, 290 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 2: and the Padres are now tied for first place in 291 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 2: the NL West. But we were told as the trade 292 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 2: deadline came that all these guys coming back from the 293 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: IL work, it's going to be our trade deadline. Interesting 294 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: decision by Andrew Friedman, and Dodger fans are getting more 295 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 2: and more restless. 296 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: Well, they get the Padres get coming up home at 297 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: home this weekend, and then they go to Colorado, tick 298 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: on the Rockies, then back to the Padres, gotta be 299 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: after they finish up with the Angels gotta be pretty 300 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: good this weekend.

Thirty years, okay, 327 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 7: And for some reason, he's just stubborn, man, he just 328 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 7: and then you got his son sitting there talking about 329 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 7: Michael Pauls is like, hey, he gotta want to sign 330 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 7: a contract.

And oh yeah, 337 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: by the way, none of that his bottom line. There's 338 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: a salary cap. They're going to spend it, and they're 339 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: gonna make gobs and gobs of money, and the valuation 340 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: of the team keeps going up. And oh yeah, by 341 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: the way, we learned because the Packers are a publicly 342 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,960 Speaker 1: traded company that everybody got four hundred and fifty thirty 343 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 1: million dollars from the league. I love Denzil, but his 344 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,199 Speaker 1: what they're doing negotiating with Mike Parsons has nothing to 345 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 1: do with his bottom line. Dan and Jeremiah joins us 346 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 1: uh first place, padres fan and your favorite Denzel movie. 347 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 5: Well, I would go to to remember the Titans would 348 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 5: be up there. 349 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: Oh good one. 350 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, in terms of the best like Speen or dialogue, 351 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 5: I would go hunt for Red October in the submarine. 352 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 5: Speech was pretty was pretty out there. 353 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 1: He was he was Crimson Tide. He wasn't unproductive. 354 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 5: Oh sorry, sorry, sorry sorry, Crimson Tie correct correct, correct, 355 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 5: But that speech it is with Gene Hackman, right, is that? 356 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 5: Who's with him there? 357 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: Gene Hackman, Genackman. 358 00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 5: That is an awesome scene where he takes over control 359 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 5: of it of the sub So those of the two 360 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 5: that come to mind. I don't know, I couldn't tell 361 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 5: who was talking in that who else is on there? 362 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 5: But whoever said that incredulously. You think the Cowboys are 363 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 5: worth more than the Yankees. Yes, the Cowboys are worth 364 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 5: four billion dollars more than the Yankees. Like it's not 365 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 5: even close. 366 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: I know, I know for people who don't understand, you know, owners, 367 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: does it really affect them in terms of how much 368 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 1: they pay a player? 369 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 5: No, no, no no. And they have, like you said, 370 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 5: I mean, you can go through their their history with 371 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 5: Jerry there, they've always paid guys. It's and it's there's 372 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 5: been a lot of instances where it's dragged on and 373 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 5: going back to Emmitt Smith for that, but he's he's 374 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 5: never had a problem right in the check. So the 375 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 5: whole thing that like they're cheap, I don't know that 376 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 5: that's necessarily accurate. I mean just recently, look at what 377 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 5: they paid Dak, Look what they paid Ceedee Lamb. Like 378 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,479 Speaker 5: they they're not afraid to come out of the pocket. 379 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 5: It's just Jerry and he even said it as much 380 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 5: like he likes being in the news, he likes them 381 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 5: being a topic of conversation, and it's almost like he's 382 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 5: going to make them just kind of wait for their money. 383 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 5: It's some I don't know if that's a power thing 384 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 5: or what but he eventually pays them. 385 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, he did. He does, shad Or Sanders. You watch 386 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 1: film differently than average Joe. How do you actually look 387 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: when you booked down the film? 388 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was good. I watched it, you know, I 389 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 5: was on the prehaff and post on NFL network, and 390 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 5: then I went back and watched the tape of it 391 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 5: and he was good, like it was. It was fine, 392 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 5: like he there was nothing really different than what I 393 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 5: saw in college, you know, strengths and weaknesses. You know, 394 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 5: he showed some anticipation, made some nice touch throws. There 395 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,959 Speaker 5: were times where he climbed up in the pocket nicely, 396 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,479 Speaker 5: and then there was two examples of where he's drifting 397 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 5: in the pocket and then almost got caught in some 398 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 5: real long negative plays. So I thought he looked like 399 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 5: what we had seen when you know, to me, I 400 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 5: don't know what direction the Browns are going to go 401 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 5: going forward, but I did think he showed enough to 402 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 5: warrant some you know, some more reps. But now he's hurt, 403 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 5: so that's not that's not really going to happen. But 404 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 5: I always cautioned people when you're when you're watching these 405 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 5: competitions play out and You're like, I don't know why 406 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 5: this guy is running with the two's and this guy's 407 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 5: with the THREESU. We are not in we are not 408 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:09,919 Speaker 5: in a room, we are not in a building. We 409 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 5: don't know what you know, one guy, you know has 410 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 5: processed offense wise versus the other guy. You know, there's 411 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 5: so many different other factors that go into it that 412 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 5: you're not going to be privy to by watching, you know, 413 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 5: vanilla football in the preseason. 414 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 1: When a guy is hurt, now, he did put some 415 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: good plays on tape. When a guy is hurt, how 416 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 1: does that affect whether a team keeps him or doesn't 417 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 1: keep him? 418 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, there's ways to stash guys if they're 419 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 5: really really hurt. It doesn't sound like that was this, 420 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:39,239 Speaker 5: but every rep is is very important for everyone in 421 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 5: that quarterback competition save Joe Flacco. Joe Flacco is the 422 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 5: only one of those guys that's got, you know, a 423 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 5: proven track record, and not only that, a proven track 424 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 5: record with this team and this coach. So the other three, 425 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 5: every single rep is extremely valuable, especially in these joint 426 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 5: practices they've been doing with the Eagles. I'll call my 427 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 5: buddies in Philly and so we talk next week. I'll 428 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:00,479 Speaker 5: have a I'll have a better feel for you of 429 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 5: how the Browns looked and what that looked like once 430 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 5: I talked all my guys there, But that was that's 431 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 5: a valuable, valuable opportunity with these practices. 432 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: Stut Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Radio. What'd you 433 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 1: think of James Cook's new contract. He's only three years 434 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: in the league, so there he did a hold in 435 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: and I'm sure you saw that chefter made sure to 436 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,239 Speaker 1: put in the agent's name. So the agents want these 437 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: numbers out there, But what's the reality to how the numbers, 438 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 1: how it all works when you give a guy thirty 439 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: million guaranteed and he's still under contract for two years 440 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: with the fifth year option. 441 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 5: I think at this point in time, where Josh is 442 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 5: in this window, that you kind of lose negotiating power, 443 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 5: you know, when you're right on the doorstep and you're 444 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 5: so close to your goal. I think it's probably, you know, 445 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 5: in the agent's favor to have a team like this, 446 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 5: with a client like this where you can, you know, 447 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 5: kind of put their feet to the fire and play 448 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 5: a game of chicken with them because they're they're so 449 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 5: invested right now and trying to win this thing right 450 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 5: now that you might be able to pull this off. 451 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 5: I don't know that this same strategy works if you're, 452 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,719 Speaker 5: you know, kind of a middle tier team, But I 453 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 5: you know, and I don't even I don't even know 454 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 5: who revers. I haven't seen the articles, I haven't seen 455 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 5: who his agents are. I don't know who they are 456 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 5: off the top of my head. But it's probably a 457 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 5: smart play on their part to realize the window the 458 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 5: bills are in and try and exercise some leverage they 459 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:17,960 Speaker 5: wouldn't have otherwise. 460 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 1: Are do you believe teams are going to change their 461 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: philosophy on signing running backs due to the success of 462 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: some of these older running backs the past couple of years. 463 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 5: Now, I still think that you want guys on, you know, 464 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 5: the front side, and you're going to be leery of 465 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 5: overpaying on the on the back side. I think there's 466 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 5: you have to and with any sport, you know, in 467 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 5: any position, I think you have to recognize who the 468 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 5: exceptions are. Doug and I still think these are just 469 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 5: a couple of exceptions we're talking about. Like I'm I'm 470 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 5: fascinated to see what Christian McAffrey looks like this year, 471 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 5: you know, he's making a lot of money. Last year 472 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 5: wasn't healthy, Like to Hee tried out there for seventeen weeks, 473 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 5: is he you know, going to you know, earn what 474 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 5: what the number he's got on the books looks like 475 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 5: because Saquon obviously crushed it last year. But you know, 476 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 5: and you saw Derrick Henry as well. You know those 477 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 5: But to me, those guys are more of like the 478 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 5: physical exceptions than what's normal. 479 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 1: Stut Gottlieb show here on Fox Sports Radio, Chargers. They 480 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: lose one of the top left tackles the game. Now 481 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: the good news is they can move Joe Alt over. 482 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: The bad news is, well, now you'd lose Joe Alt 483 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: at right tackle. How much does this change what they 484 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: wanted to do? 485 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 5: I mean, I think it hurts, you know, to me, 486 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 5: it shows up on third downs is where you're going 487 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 5: to see it, and you're just gonna have to devote 488 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 5: some help to the right side, you know, with Trey 489 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 5: Pipkins over there. And to be honest, it's no different 490 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 5: than probably twenty of the thirty two teams where you 491 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 5: don't have a right tackle, you feel comfortable leaving out 492 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 5: there on an island, so they're kind of they were 493 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 5: in that select club that could leave those guys alone 494 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 5: with the two tackles, and now that's not the case. 495 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 5: But I don't think any of their goals are out 496 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 5: of reach. I think it just maybe effects on third 497 00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 5: downs given some help over there, and the Chargers have 498 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 5: three tight ends. I think the two sixty five that 499 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 5: basically can function as extra offensive tackles as well. They're huge, 500 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 5: so that that would be, uh, you know something I 501 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 5: would keep an eye on there. 502 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: With them stuck outleap show here on Fox Sports Radio. 503 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: Do you want time to talk some trashy to Jay 504 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 1: Stune now at the Podgers your type the first place? 505 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 5: No, no, no, no, no no. I mean, look, Doug, 506 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 5: I don't I think it's unrealistic the expectations. I mean, 507 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 5: they they only spent one point six billion dollars in 508 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 5: the last two years. You can't expect the Dodgers to 509 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 5: run away from a division when they're just not committed, 510 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 5: you know, to investing in what it takes to win 511 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 5: at the highest level. 512 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: The sad thing is like Jase DU's gotten no retort 513 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: because he's he said he doesn't love the mix of 514 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: this team and what Andrew Friedman's done. 515 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 5: Go ask me this, well, Jase doing this one because 516 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 5: this makes no sense. Mean, look, the Dodgers off full 517 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 5: of readily admit they could still go win the whole 518 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 5: thing and none of this will matter. But when you're 519 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 5: at the trade deadline, really as much as many prospects 520 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 5: as they have, you really were that beholden for those 521 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 5: guys that you would part with some double A players 522 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 5: to go get one of these top end relievers and 523 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 5: almost virtually guarantee yourself another World Series. Like that's insane 524 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 5: to me. 525 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 1: It's I think, equally insane to Jason Stewart, Correct, Jason. 526 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 2: I think that Andrew Friedman he gets cute, you know, 527 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 2: Andrew Friedman. I've always said this, It means more to 528 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 2: Andrew Friedman to win in his cute way than just 529 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 2: to win. He took a World Series team with an 530 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 2: amazing chemistry. A couple of the Glue guys were let go, 531 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 2: and he spent a lot of money on other guys, 532 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 2: and the chemistry isn't there. Something's broken about this team 533 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 2: and the trade deadline strategy of just letting il guys 534 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 2: come back hasn't worked. The Padres did a phenomenal job 535 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 2: at the trade deadline. I don't know where they're getting 536 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 2: all these resources. They're supposed to be going. 537 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 5: Broke, Like Mason Miller is arguably the best reliever in baseball. 538 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 5: He's making six hundred five one undred thousand. What it 539 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 5: cost us was a ton of prospects. But I don't care. 540 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,239 Speaker 5: I mean, I, as a fan of a team, like 541 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 5: a J. Peler, just keeps scouting and scouting and scouting, 542 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 5: and somehow they magically have more prospects every year. But man, 543 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 5: I love the fact that my GM is just going 544 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 5: for it. He's not going to let some twenty year 545 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 5: old kids stand in the way of them trying to 546 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 5: win a championship, and he goes for it. To me, 547 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 5: as a fan of a team, I love his mindset. 548 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: Well, boys, we'll see because there's a big showdown this 549 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: weekend at the Ravine Big and we gotta get through. 550 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 5: And we got to get through the Giants and we're 551 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 5: only up seven to nothing in the third inning. So 552 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 5: you know, I don't want to get ahead of myself 553 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 5: here on today's. 554 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: Game Stut Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sports Tradio, What 555 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,360 Speaker 1: are you hearing about how about Caleb Williams. 556 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 5: I don't know, Doug, if it's if we're just getting 557 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 5: tough love or if there's disappointment. I don't I haven't 558 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 5: had a chance to talk to anybody in the building there, 559 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 5: but it's one of the two. I don't think there's 560 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 5: a third option. 561 00:27:58,600 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: Uh so it's not good. 562 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 5: Well, I mean it's either tough love, like, hey, we're 563 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 5: just gonna make this hard on him, and we're going 564 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 5: to be hard on him and we're confident that this 565 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 5: is the best thing for him and he's actually gonna 566 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,120 Speaker 5: be really, really good, or uh oh, we're wildly disappointed 567 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 5: and now that's you know, that's seeping out. I don't 568 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 5: know which one of those two things it is. 569 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: What are you hearing about? JJ McCarthy. 570 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 5: Up and down? I just have so much belief in 571 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 5: KOC that they can kind of, you know, navigate around that. 572 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 5: I think it's going to be a slow start to 573 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 5: the year though, just no Addison for three games. Jefferson's 574 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,439 Speaker 5: missing a ton of time in terms of getting their 575 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 5: chemistry together. So they got three new offensive linemen. I mean, 576 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 5: I could very easily see people panicking on the Vikings 577 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 5: with a little bit of a slow start, but I 578 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 5: think they'll, you know, they'll have time to get going. 579 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: Okay, last quarterback that I want to know, what you know, 580 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. You know some have said May looks old, 581 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: May looks old. What do you heard? 582 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 5: Not what I've heard? And I know, I know, you know, 583 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 5: I'm always careful with when you talk to guys on 584 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 5: teams and personnel departments starting training camp. It's very optimistic, 585 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 5: you know, for the most part. But I've heard they 586 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 5: the guys I've talked to in Pittsburgh have been very 587 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 5: happy with what they've seen from Aaron and they feel 588 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 5: like they have a chance to have one of the 589 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 5: best defensive It's not the best defense in the league, 590 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 5: and he fit in there. And uh, he's you know, 591 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 5: the fact they're at Latrobe, they go away for training camp. 592 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 5: He's playing cards with the guys, he's engaged with him. 593 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 5: He's you know, they've been very, very, very pleased what 594 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 5: they have so far. 595 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: He's the one and only Daniel Jeremiah. Uh. Six games 596 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: seeing the Dodgers and the Padres over the next week 597 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: and a half.
