Apparently there's always a 54 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: fight between Elon Musk and somebody about Twitter. There's this 55 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: new thing called threads that's out there. There's you know, Instagram, 56 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: and you know TikTok and snapchat and snapface and all 57 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: these other like you know stuff that's at MySpace. It's 58 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: like all these other things that were there in the 59 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: past and are still currently here and everybody fights and everybody. 60 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: But the problem with social media is that it's created 61 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: this illusion, you know, like this illusion that everything is fine. 62 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: You know, there's no there's no happy meeting. There's not 63 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: like a little bit of good news and a little 64 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: bit of bad news. And we'll just split the difference 65 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:32,399 Speaker 1: it's everything's the best or everything's the worst. And it's 66 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: kind of like you go on people's pages and everybody's 67 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: got like some sort of like an Instagram video they're 68 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: putting up. But I get it. If you're promoting work 69 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: or you're promoting something like that, I get all that. 70 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: That's understandable. 71 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 3: You know. 72 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: I do that. I'll send out tweets and links to 73 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: podcasts and things like that promoting the show if you 74 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: want to listen. If you don't want to listen, screw 75 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: you and kiss my ass. We'll double up on that. 76 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: But the point is to promote from a business standpoint, 77 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: I get it. The people though that constantly want to 78 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: put out their highlights, And by highlights, I mean it's 79 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: all the pictures they look great in. You notice nobody 80 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: ever puts the stuff they look bad in, Like, hey, 81 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: I looked awful yesterday. Check this out. You know, I'd 82 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: love to see the b sides of all that stuff. 83 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: Let's see all the recording sessions before you finally settle 84 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 1: on that. Can we see some rough drafts? Please, Let's 85 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 1: get a few of those. But nobody does that. It's 86 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: all an illusion. It's an act. And so when you 87 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 1: see some honesty, some real genuine throwback honesty. It's kind 88 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: of nice. You know, there is something about it. It's 89 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: like seeing a comedy show nowadays. You see a comedy 90 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: show nowadays, and they're joking about stuff that If you 91 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: joke about that anywhere else over the past couple of years, 92 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: oh my god, you will get canceled and you will 93 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: get destroyed. You watch a comedy show now, you're like, oh, 94 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: that's like the old days where you could bust somebody's 95 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: balls or crack a few jokes and not everybody would 96 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: take it per personal. Sometimes you'll get some throwback moments 97 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: and it's kind of nice. You know what a throwback 98 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: relationship is in the NFL? I got one for you. 99 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:17,840 Speaker 1: How about Kirk Cousins and Justin Jefferson throwback relationship the 100 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: good old days where you could just be honest. You know, 101 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: there's no pretend crap going on with Kirk Cousins and 102 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson, not at all. Justin Jefferson recently asked, hey, 103 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: name your top five quarterbacks in the NFL. Patrick Mahomes, 104 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Jalen Hurtz, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen. You know who. 105 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: He didn't name, Kirk Cousins, the guy he plays with, 106 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 1: the guy that he's you know, done some really great 107 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: things with early on in his career. The guy that's 108 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: partly responsible for why Justin Jefferson's going to be the 109 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: highest paid wide receiver very very soon, maybe is the 110 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: best wide receiver in the NFL. Didn't name Kirk Cousins. 111 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: Didn't name that guy. Kirk Cousins not on that list. 112 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 1: You know who? Was okay with that. Kirk Cousins. In fact, 113 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 1: he was asked about it. Spoke with one of our 114 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: Fox Sports radio affiliates, the Yalla Horn of the Twin 115 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: Cities kfan in Minneapolis, had just said, uh, yeah, you listen, 116 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: people have to be honest, you know, share what they think. 117 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell somebody what they need to think. 118 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 1: And you know, we'll see what we can do this year. 119 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: Hopefully I'll be on his list. Totally fine, It's okay, 120 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: he was honest. I'll be honest. Not a problem whatsoever. 121 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: It's kind of nice, right. It reminds you when you 122 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 1: get together with old friends. There's some of those friends 123 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: in your life to where you get together and you 124 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: never missed a beat. It's like you just all of 125 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: a sudden reconnected and it wasn't five or ten years 126 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: since you last saw each other. For a couple of years, 127 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: got families and kids and pulled in different directions. All 128 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you get together and you can just 129 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: have honest conversations and nobody's going to be outraged by it. 130 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: Nobody's going to be offended by it. You're just being honest. 131 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with that, And Justin Jefferson was being honest, 132 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: and there's nothing wrong with that. And the immediate reaction 133 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: from so many people who are so afraid to have 134 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: conversations like that, or spend all of their time with 135 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: their face buried in their phone, scrolling through stuff, liking stuff, 136 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: re editing pictures, adding new filters. The problem is you 137 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: miss out on all of this honesty around you. It's 138 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: right there. You can have honest conversations like this. You 139 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: go on social media. If you were to ask somebody, hey, 140 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: am I on your top five list of best people 141 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: in your life? They'd probably tell you. Some people would say, oh, yes, absolutely, 142 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: and then the other people would say, oh no, not 143 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 1: even not a shot in hell, because those people are 144 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: just miserable. Justin Jeffers said, hey, just just rattle off 145 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: my top five. He mentioned Kirk Cousins after the fact, 146 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: but yeah, that's my top five. And guess what, everybody's 147 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: okay with it. It's a throwback, and it is possible. 148 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: It is possible, believe it or not, to have those 149 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: sorts of conversations to still let those things be a 150 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: part of life. All you gotta do is take the 151 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: time and actually have real conversations, speak to somebody on 152 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: the phone, have real discussions about stuff. And guess what, 153 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: this isn't the first time those guys have done this. 154 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,599 Speaker 1: If you think, well it's Justin Jefferson taking shots to 155 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins, no, no, no, no no. Last year, Justin 156 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: Jefferson got together with some receivers and skilled players with 157 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: the Vikings. They all wanted to get together and work 158 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: out in the offseason. That's like the cool thing, you know, 159 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: That's what everybody does nowadays. Jordan loves doing it in California, right, 160 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: He's got like all the Packers players in California. I 161 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: believe Deshaun Watson got everybody going to some some massage parlor. Probably, 162 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. Listen. I don't know. I don't know 163 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: what Deshaun Watson's schedule is. All right, that's his business. 164 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,199 Speaker 1: It's not my business. And I'm not trying to make 165 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: jokes here or this is serious stuff, right. He wants 166 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: to work out with his teammates. He's gonna go work 167 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: out with his teammates. I would just question how we're 168 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: going to relax afterwards. That would be my question for 169 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. But again I ask follow ups. That's what 170 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: you do in this business. But you see players get together. 171 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: You know, Carson Wenz years ago got everybody together in 172 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: Philadelphia and took him up to North Dakota or wherever 173 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: you know, to Fargo. Apparently he wanted to show everybody, 174 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: you know, let's run some routes and then I'll show 175 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: you where Steve Bushemi got thrown into the woodshiper at 176 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: the end of the movie. It's right there, spoiler alert 177 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,559 Speaker 1: like whatever, like listen, And apparently that didn't work out 178 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: all that great because he's not in Philadelphia or anywhere else. 179 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: But the point is people get together, they do these 180 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: off season workouts and they try and rally the team, 181 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: and everybody get together. So Justin Jefferson last year wanted 182 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: everybody to get together and wanted all the skill position 183 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,439 Speaker 1: players to go. So, of course, he asked Kirk Cousins, 184 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: why wouldn't he It's his quarterback, you know what. Kirk 185 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: Cousins said, Nah, I'm good. No off seasons for family time. 186 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: I want to hang out with my family. That's it. 187 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: I guess who was okay with that. Justin Jefferson said 188 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: it himself. Listen, Kirk's a different guy, likes to be 189 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: with his family in the off season. Not offended by it. 190 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: It's okay, I offered. He declined, no problem, no worries 191 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: in the world. But the issue is you don't get 192 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: that when you live in the fake world. You only 193 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 1: get that in real life. So when I watch Kirk 194 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: Cousins and Justin Jefferson just be brutally honest about each other, 195 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: decline an invitation for an off season gathering, or list 196 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: the top five players at the position, and you're the 197 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: other guy's not on that list. To me, some people 198 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 1: could be outraged by it. Some people could look for drama. 199 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: I don't see any of that. I see brutal honesty. 200 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 1: I see a throwback relationship. And might add a relationship 201 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: that's done pretty damn good thus far in Justin Jefferson's career. 202 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 1: Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio, get me on Twitter at 203 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:16,599 Speaker 1: d Jonas Knox at d Jonas Knox on Twitter, and 204 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: again you can hang out with us as always on 205 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app. So we are gonna have the usuals 206 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 1: for the next couple hours here on Fox Sports Radio. 207 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 1: We're gonna have another edition of Do You Care.

So 243 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna own up to that. I'm gonna be accountable 244 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: for that. Coming up here in a little over ten 245 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: minutes from now on Fox Sports Radio. I would also 246 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: like to just welcome everybody out to what feels like 247 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: the first annual we've all got to deal with the 248 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: potential of bo Saturdays. I just want to let everybody, like, 249 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 1: I don't know anywhere in the country. I was watching 250 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: the Cubs game, the Cubs Red Sox game last night. 251 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: Cubs look great, by the way. I was watching the 252 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: Cubs Red Sox game and the weather was so bad 253 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: and was so awful. It's seventy degrees. People are wearing 254 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: T shirts and shorts in Wrigley Field that the rain 255 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: was coming. It's the old adage in Chicago. If you 256 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: don't like the weather, just wait a minute. So the 257 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,599 Speaker 1: rain started coming in late in the game, like the 258 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: ninth inning, and it was running sideways because the wind 259 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 1: was so bad. But it's seventy degrees, so there was 260 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: thunderstorms in the area and all that stuff, so you know, 261 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 1: the humidity was just out of control, like mosquitoes flying around, 262 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: the size of trash can lids, like it just the 263 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: whole thing's just disturbing. And you've got trash blowing onto 264 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: the field at one point one of a picture for 265 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: the Red Sox picked up a dollar bill that blew 266 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: onto the field. So, you know, some guy was still 267 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: rocking cargo shorts and forgot to, you know, button up 268 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: the little latch on the side of his leg and 269 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: put all his cash in there when he went up 270 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: to go pay for a beer. And next thing you know, 271 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: he's out a dollar because it was all folded up 272 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,720 Speaker 1: a certain way and it blew onto the field. It 273 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: just feels like we're all in this together, and it's 274 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,960 Speaker 1: hot as balls all across the country, is the point 275 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: of the story. So there's usually one of these every 276 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: year that kind of kicks off unofficial got to worry 277 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: about bo season, and it feels like that is the 278 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: launch today. So I'd like to welcome everybody in. If 279 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: you're battling it, if you're dealing with it, you know, 280 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: just make sure you keep your arms too close to 281 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: your body because it's going to create like a swampy 282 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: substance there. You got to let those bad boys air 283 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: out a little bit. Now, not everybody wants to wear 284 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: tank tops or sleeveless shirts, but this is one of 285 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: those days where I feel like we shouldn't judge. Let 286 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: them do what they got to do, because unfortunately everybody's 287 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: dealing with the same issues here Ty Gene trying to 288 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: help people out here on the show and listen if 289 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: you disagree with that again at the Jonas Knocks on Twitter, 290 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: you can disagree all you want. That's fine, call what 291 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: it is. Just speaking for the masses here. All right, 292 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: let's get into this. So we have talked about this 293 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: is one of the every off season the NFL's got this. 294 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's an outcry, if you want 295 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: to call it, because that feels a bit dramatic, But 296 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: there has been a discussion about the running back position, 297 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: and the running back position finds itself in a little 298 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: bit of an interesting spot because you've got two running 299 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 1: backs who haven't sent their franchise tag. You've got Saquon 300 00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: Barkley and you got Josh Jacobs. They haven't signed it, 301 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: and there's a deadline Monday to get a long term 302 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: deal done or else they can't get a long term 303 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: deal done moving forward. Now, why that long term deal 304 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: has a deadline, I'm not quite sure. It feels like 305 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: you should be able to sign a deal whenever you 306 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: want to sign a deal, but that's what was negotiated 307 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: in from the CBA. That's what's in the in the agreement, 308 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: and so this is where we're at. But you've got 309 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 1: a lot of running backs who've been really vocal about 310 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 1: their issues and their complaints with how the position is 311 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: valued and how the position is paid, and all of 312 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: that we can agree on. In fact, Austin Eckler one 313 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: of those guys who was vocal about trying to get 314 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: a better deal done. He got one reworked with the 315 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: Chargers this offseason. But this is a guy who was 316 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: making six million dollars in change, and he's a fantastic player. 317 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: He was great for the Chargers last year. Some would 318 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: argue probably their MVP outside of Justin Herbert. They had 319 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 1: a lot of injuries at wide receiver. Austin Eckler was 320 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 1: a dependable guy, especially out of the backfield catching the ball. 321 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: He was great for the Chargers last year. He was 322 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 1: on with Rich Eyes in this week and he spoke 323 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 1: about his frustrations not only with the pay structure for 324 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: running backs, but also how the position is valued. 325 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 7: If I'm looking at some of the backup receivers out 326 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 7: here that are still making more than me, And that's 327 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 7: going to piss me off, right, I'm a little bit. 328 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 7: I'm like, okay, wait a minute. So you're telling me 329 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 7: these people or the number three receiver is going to 330 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 7: make more than me, and I'm the starter. I'd get 331 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 7: more carries, I touched the ball more, I have more 332 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 7: of an impact. It causes us to question, right, we're 333 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 7: going to fight for that. We're going to fight for Hey, 334 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 7: I'm bringing more value to the team than this person. 335 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 7: I think I should be compensated for that. It seems 336 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 7: like it's about money, But it's about principle, right, It's 337 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 7: about the principle of adding value to a team. It's 338 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 7: going to take something, right, whether some guy stands out again, 339 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 7: whether this year some you know, one of these guys 340 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 7: holds out and get the big contract. But we need 341 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 7: that needle to move to push us over the edge. 342 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 7: Because here's the deal. The salary cap goes out every 343 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 7: single year, right, and so you see new highs and 344 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 7: every single position. And I'm not saying we've had another 345 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 7: Christian McCaffrey type guy who's gonna even you know, blow 346 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 7: up the market and the running back and put a 347 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 7: new high. We've had people that have been close for sure, 348 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,400 Speaker 7: maybe you could justify that there has been, but there's 349 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 7: no one even been close to those contracts, not even close. 350 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: So that was Austin Echler talking with rich Eisen very passionate. Obviously, 351 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: this is something that he's very interested in, being a 352 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: running back, wanting the position to be in a better 353 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 1: spot when it comes to financially and talking about guys 354 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: holding out, so on and so forth. Here's my question, 355 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: what do you do about evolution? Like what can you 356 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: do about it? Like what can you do about advancement 357 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: in technology or advancement in a product? I mean, what 358 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: can you do about it? Like this happens in every 359 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: walk of life. I'm sure when cell phones started coming out, 360 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: there was some guy who ran a pager store somewhere 361 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: in the country who was pounding the table, why are 362 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: we doing this? We're phasing out pagers. These are important. 363 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,199 Speaker 1: If people want to get a hold of somebody, they 364 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: can buzz them on the hip. It goes instantly. And 365 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: then before that it was people that just had home phones, 366 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 1: and then before that It's like we could do this 367 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: all day long. It feels like the discussion with the 368 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: value of the running back. Isn't so much about whether 369 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: or not these guys are getting short changed. It's about 370 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: the reality that evolution has changed the NFL. Wide receivers 371 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: are making more than running backs because wide receivers are 372 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,919 Speaker 1: valued more because they're used more Now. That's like, that's 373 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: not so much a slight on these individual players. Austin 374 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: Eckler's great, He's great, Dalvin Cook's great, Saquon Barkley's great, 375 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs was fantastic last year, Derrick Henry's great. Zeke 376 00:19:56,040 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 1: Elliott had monster years with the Cowboys. But the problem 377 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: isn't so much the position as it stands right now. 378 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: It's the fact that this position is getting left behind 379 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: because of the evolution of the game. It's just advanced. 380 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: Like if you go to some of these youth passing 381 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: leagues and some of these passing tournaments. I remember having 382 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 1: a conversation I've taught. We've talked about this with Brady Quinn, 383 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: LeVar Arrington, I've talked with Bucky Brooks about it. Man, 384 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: if I was a father and my son wanted to 385 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 1: play running back, and he was a younger player, and 386 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: he was coming up the ranks and going to these tournaments. 387 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: I would tell him, if you want to make it 388 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: to the NFL, stop for a couple of reasons. Number one, 389 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: the damage it does to your body. But number two, 390 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 1: there's going to be more opportunities for you if you 391 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 1: learn how to play the wide receiver position, Like if 392 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: you're not a factor out of the backfield catching the ball, like, 393 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: this isn't about the individual player. I don't look at 394 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley and Josh Jacob's not getting paid as so 395 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: much of a slight on the team's not paying them 396 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: because they'll pay wide receivers. They'll pay you know, tight ends. 397 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: They've done it like Darren Waller, you know, ironically was 398 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: a Raider, one of the highest paid tight ends. Now 399 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: he's a Giant. So it's not that they're not willing 400 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: to pay people. It's just that position doesn't have the 401 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 1: value it once did because of the evolution. So whose 402 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 1: fault is that? And if you don't like the franchise tag, listen, 403 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: this is negotiated into the CBA. I mean, why not 404 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: fight for that? How about you know, less time being 405 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: able to smoke weed and more time being able to 406 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,440 Speaker 1: argue against the franchise tag. How about let like, there's 407 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 1: a lot of things that you could argue against that 408 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 1: are currently in the CBA practice times, things like that 409 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: practice a little more, maybe we can we can talk 410 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: about the franchise tag, Like there's things that you can 411 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: do that you can take out of the CBA if 412 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: you really want to go down that road. But to me, 413 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: the biggest issue here is evolution of the game. It's changed, 414 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: it's just it's advanced to a point to where it's 415 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: maybe not necessary. Like there's somebody somewhere who back in 416 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: the day, their job was they built payphones. That was 417 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: their gig. They would go around they would service payphones. 418 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 1: Like here's another one. I was in Vegas recently last weekend, 419 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: and I found myself when I needed a ride somewhere, 420 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: looking up Uber on my phone, going okay, well, I'll 421 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: just get an Uber. And then I realized, wait a second, 422 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 1: there's cabs right outside. Like that's the advancement of technology. 423 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: So I said, okay, well, I'd rather just like help 424 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: out the cab companies because those are local guys that 425 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: are driving. I'd rather help them out. So I just 426 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 1: started taking cabs if I needed to get somewhere. But 427 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 1: this is just the advancement of technology and the advancement 428 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: of the game, and the NFL's advanced to a point 429 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,439 Speaker 1: to where the reason those guys are making more money 430 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: is because there's more value in those guys. So I 431 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: understand the complaint. I love the running back position. If 432 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: you grew up watching football in the late eighties or 433 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 1: early nineties, man, the running back position was king. Even 434 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: before that, if you grew up watching the NFL, the 435 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 1: running back position was king. Talked about this on the 436 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 1: show before. Anybody that's played fantasy football for an extended 437 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 1: amount of time. If you played fantasy football for like ten, twelve, 438 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: fifteen years, whatever it is, remember back in the day 439 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 1: where one of your first picks was always a running 440 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 1: back Ladanian Tomlinson. You know, you could like rattle off 441 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 1: like all of these great like that would be the 442 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: pick back in the if you had the number one 443 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,439 Speaker 1: pick in the draft, everybody wanted la Danian Tomlinson. When's 444 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: the last time you had a fantasy football draft and 445 00:23:54,320 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: a running back went number one overall? Doesn't happen anymore. 446 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: There's a reason for that. It is changed. The evolution 447 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: of the game has gone in a direction away from 448 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: the running backs, and I don't know if there's a 449 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: solution to it other than the fact that these guys 450 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: are just going to continue to be underpaid in the 451 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: eyes of other running backs. And this is just where 452 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: we're at. Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio, get me on 453 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: Twitter at the Jonas Knox at the Jonas Knox on Twitter, 454 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: and again you can hang out with us on the 455 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio app. So coming up, apparently something that's been a 456 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: long standing member of the sports media community, apparently it's 457 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: still here. And I got to own up to a 458 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 1: mistake that I made, So we'll get into that for you. 459 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: But for all the latest from around the world of sports, 460 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 1: it's started over to the one and only. 461 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 2: Nick Kbe what's up, Jonas? Hey, remember when Larry Johnson 462 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 2: was like the best fantasy running back for like a 463 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 2: hot second. 464 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: He was fit, and let me tell you something. The 465 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 1: year that I think he came in and he blew 466 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: up one year and I got him in my fantasy 467 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 1: football league. I did too. I drafted him later on 468 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: and everyone's like, who is this? Why are you taking 469 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: Larry Johnson? Because I think Priest Holmes might have still 470 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 1: been there or something. I forget what the deal was, 471 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: but I remember taking Larry Johnson. The following year he 472 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: went number one overall. 473 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 2: He had twenty touchdowns in two thousand and five and 474 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 2: seventeen in two thousand and six. 475 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: All those Sean Alexander, all those guys, because that position 476 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: and that's what ten, twelve, fifteen years ago. It's just 477 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 1: it's a different game now. Yeah, it's different. 478 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 2: Well, well, talking about running backs, there was some news 479 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 2: last night Joe Mixon, the running back for the Bengals. 480 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 2: He's trying to preserve his job here for a couple 481 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 2: of years. He agreed with Cincinnati on a restructured deal. 482 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 2: He's taken a pay cut of nearly fifty percent over 483 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 2: the next two seasons. He was due to make about 484 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 2: nineteen million or so between this year and next year, 485 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 2: and he took a pay cut that amounts to about 486 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 2: nine million over the next two years. So Mixon trying 487 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 2: to keep his role there, make himself more affordable for Cincinnati. 488 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 2: At Wimbledon, we had an upset here. Marquette Vandrosova is 489 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 2: the Ladies champion. She downed six seed one de Burn 490 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 2: straight sets for her first major title. Vondro's was the 491 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 2: first unseated woman to ever win Wimbledon, just the third 492 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 2: person to do it, joining Boris Becker and gorn Evana Sevitch. 493 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 2: Got the men's final tomorrow with the top two players 494 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 2: in the world Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alkaraz. 495 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: Djokovic will be going for his fifth. 496 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 2: Straight Wimbledon title, eighth overall in Grand Slam title number 497 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 2: twenty four.

Like I normally don't ask them to change 534 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: anything because I just assume somebody's already watching something and 535 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: I don't care. I don't go out to watch TV. 536 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: I just I'd rather go out and just spend some time. 537 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: There's maybe a handful of times that I've asked something 538 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: to be changed because it was annoying me. And one 539 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: of them was a celebrity golf tournament. Here. Why, I 540 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: swear to God, this is a true story.

Find 556 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: something on television that isn't this, because I was so 557 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: bothered by it, and from that moment moving forward, I'm 558 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 1: out on these celebrity golf tournaments. Can't stand it. In fact, 559 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: it made me not want to play golf. Yeah, just 560 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,719 Speaker 1: totally ruined golfer ultimate.

A lot of stuff you've been 573 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: forced for over the past several days in the world 574 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: of sports.

So let me just say this. I was 577 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: under the impression that the Friday news dump was dead, dead, 578 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:21,959 Speaker 1: gone over, finished, didn't exist anymore. And the reason I 579 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 1: say that it wasn't because I was like looking into 580 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: the future and projecting things. 581 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 6: No. 582 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: No, I was trying to make myself feel more important. 583 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: I really was, but I got to be accountable for something. 584 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: It was self involved. It was selfish. I would predict 585 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: that the Friday news dump no longer existed anymore. And 586 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: in fact, I predicted that the Friday news dump wasn't 587 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: effective anymore. I said it for years on this show. 588 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: And the reason I said it was because myself and 589 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 1: the other savages that make up the weekend lineup here 590 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: at Fox Sports Radio, you weren't gonna get anything by us. 591 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: It's murderer's row on this network. You think, just because 592 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 1: the weekdays are over, that all of a sudden, it's 593 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: safe to come out and bury stories on a Friday. No, no, no, no, no, 594 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: not with the lineup of wholigans. Are this network the 595 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: out and out savages who get their hands on these 596 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: stories and chew them up and spin them out and 597 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: spin them all over the nation, all over the country, 598 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: on hundreds of affiliates every single weekend. You think you're 599 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: gonna get anything by us in the coal mines of 600 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 1: sportstock Radio. Not a chance. So years ago, I said, 601 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: the Friday news dump has been ruined by Fox Sports Radio. 602 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: We ruined it. Nothing gets by us because all the 603 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: people that do these weekday shows, you know, like those 604 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: nickel and dime shows, like Two Pros and a Cup 605 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: of Joe and those yahoos in the mornings, you know, 606 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: all those guys then like we get those stories, and 607 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: then they take those stories and they run with them 608 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: after we pass him on. I was wrong, dead wrong, 609 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: not pointing the finger. I'm going to point the thumb. 610 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: A couple weeks ago on this show, I said, listen, nice, 611 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: try nice, try trying to bury this thing on a 612 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: Friday news thinking that you're going to get by us here, No, no, no, 613 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: I'll take it, and in fact I'll take it and 614 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: I'll hand it off to everybody else, and everybody else 615 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: can run with this story. Remember Mark Murphy, the president 616 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: of the Packers a couple of years, a couple of 617 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: weeks ago. You know Mark Murphy, who just he doesn't 618 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: realize that when he's talking that people might actually listen 619 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: or read this stuff that he says. He's got this 620 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: little newsletter he does on the Packers website, and so 621 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: he started talking about Hard Knocks on HBO and basically 622 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: just said, two weeks ago, I look forward to seeing 623 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and all the other former Packers on Hard 624 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: Knocks this upcoming year. I saw it and said, oh, 625 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,719 Speaker 1: way to go. Mark spilled the beans yet again, just 626 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: like he did with your plans with Aaron Rodgers this offseason, 627 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: just like he did the last offseason and the off 628 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: season before. It's every single time you ask Mark Murphy 629 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: a question, he can't help himself. We talked about it 630 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: on this show, and I guess I was the only 631 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: one talking about it. And apparently the Friday news dump 632 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: is still as still an effective strategy because Mark Murphy 633 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 1: wrote about it on a Friday. I got my hands 634 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 1: on it on a Saturday, and then it died and 635 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: then what do you know? This week? What happens well 636 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 1: in the NFL announces that Hard Knocks will be starring 637 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,520 Speaker 1: the New York Jets, and you've got Aaron Rodgers saying 638 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,239 Speaker 1: that it was forced down their throats. This happen two 639 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: weeks ago. You think Mark Murphy's just gonna say, well, 640 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: the Jets are gonna be on Hard Knocks and I 641 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: look forward to seeing all the Packers players because he's 642 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: got bad info. You don't think he knew about this. 643 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: You don't think he wasn't made aware of all this. 644 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: But it went out on a Friday, and I thought, okay, 645 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: here we go. Now we got an announcement. I mean, 646 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 1: way to ruin it, Mark Murphy. We'll have some fun. 647 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: We'll kind of google, you know, weekend at Murphy's. He's back, 648 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 1: blah blah blah haha, ha, everybody have a good time. 649 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 1: It died. Nobody saw it, nobody heard it. And I'm thinking, 650 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: wait a second, we discussed this. I might have even 651 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 1: mentioned it the following Monday, July third, on the Morning show. 652 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: I was working with a loan and I might have 653 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: mentioned it there. And now all of a sudden it 654 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: pops up this week and everyone's like, oh, okay, well, 655 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 1: at least now it's official. What did you think Mark 656 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: Murphy was just going to hand out bad information? He 657 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: was going to write on the team website and the newsletter. 658 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: I look forward to seeing all the former Packers. Do 659 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 1: you think this wasn't the plan all longer? Course it was. 660 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 1: And Robert Sala and all these guys could say, well, 661 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: we didn't want it, and Aaron Rodgers can say, well 662 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 1: was forced down our throat. I got news for you. 663 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: The Jets have been forced down our throats all off 664 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: season so two could play this game. So this is 665 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: what comes with it. But apparently nobody was paying attention, 666 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 1: or at least nobody took it serious at the time. 667 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: When Mark Murphy made this prediction, he called his shot 668 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 1: weeks ago, and just now it's popped up in the 669 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: news cycle and now people are getting their hands on 670 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: it this week. Again I'm wrong, I think corrected. The 671 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: Friday news stump is apparently a real thing. It happened again, 672 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,320 Speaker 1: and it happened two weeks ago. Jonas Knox, Fox Sports 673 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: Radio at the Jonas Knox on Twitter.

We'll explain coming 685 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: up here at a little over ten minutes from now here, 686 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: again from the tire Raq dot Com studios.

Here's some of the big stories 693 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 4: from the last week. But Jonas, the real question is 694 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 4: do you care? 695 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,440 Speaker 1: And for that we turn it over to our executive producer, 696 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: Brandon Truth And to find out what the hell people 697 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 1: have been talking about. 698 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 8: Brandon Jonas, Let's start in Cleveland, Ohio, where yesterday Cleveland's Guardians, 699 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 8: brothers Bo Naylor and josh A. Naylor, homered in the 700 00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 8: same inning yesterday. They actually both had two home runs, 701 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 8: marking the first time brothers have had multi home run 702 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 8: games in MWA history. Jonas, do you care. 703 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: No, I definitely, I don't care. But I will say this, 704 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: whenever I see Josh Naylor, like, there's certain I don't 705 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: know if anybody's like this. I don't know if you're 706 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,760 Speaker 1: like this, Brandon, but what like, there's doesn't it seem 707 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: like certain players no matter when you turn on the 708 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: TV or when you watch a highlight, it's always them homering. Yes, Like, 709 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 1: I don't know what, Like, there's two guys every time 710 00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 1: I turn on the TV or happened a glance, they're 711 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 1: hitting a home run or or they've got an extra 712 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 1: base hit, and it's Josh Naylor and Max Muncy. Every 713 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: time I turn, like, oh, another home run, And then 714 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:42,919 Speaker 1: I look and I go, oh, they're like not even 715 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 1: near the top of the league. And Naylor's had a 716 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: good year. But whenever I think of Josh Naylor, that's 717 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 1: what I think of. I mean, this is great that 718 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 1: him and his brother did this. I mean, that's that's 719 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: super cool. Unfortunately for purposes on this segment, No, I 720 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 1: don't care. 721 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 8: Next, all right, Sabrina I and Escu And yesterday's w 722 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 8: NBA three point cunt test hit thirty seven of forty 723 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 8: three pointers, shattering the NBA record of thirty one set 724 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 8: by Steph Curry. Jonas, do you care? 725 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: Nope? Mere all right?

Jonas, 733 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 8: do you care? 734 00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 1: Yes, because I think everybody else is looking at this 735 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: I and they obviously want to see show Heyo Tani 736 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 1: either move or stay put or the free agency run. 737 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,839 Speaker 1: I don't think he's getting dealt I personally, I look 738 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 1: at it and I go, if I'm the Angels, I 739 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: understand what I could get in return. But if I'm 740 00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: the Angels, I look at it and I go, I 741 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:04,320 Speaker 1: got one of the greatest players talent wise of all time. 742 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:06,919 Speaker 1: I don't know that I'm moving on from this guy, 743 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: and I realize that we've got some other holes to phill, 744 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: but I'd rather take my chances with sho Hey Otani 745 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: and or Mike Trout and then figure it out from there. 746 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 1: I don't know that I'm trading him away. I don't 747 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: think this is something the fan base and again, believe 748 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 1: it or not, and I want to clear this up 749 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 1: so everybody understands there are angels, fans. They exist. I 750 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: swear to God they exist. Okay, that is a true story. 751 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 1: They exist. I don't know if the fan base it's there. Whatever. 752 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 1: Forgive them if they walked away from one of the 753 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: great talents of all time. If you've got the ability 754 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,360 Speaker 1: to sign him, you make it happen in the offseason. 755 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: If he's given you an indication he doesn't plan on 756 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: it no matter what, then we have another conversation to 757 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 1: be had. I just don't see him getting dealt next. 758 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:52,760 Speaker 8: All right, Jimmy Butler has reportedly started dating international pop 759 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 8: stars Shakira Jonas. 760 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: Do you care? 761 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 4: Yeah? 762 00:39:55,760 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: I do. This is great. First of all, congrat to 763 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler. And now this rumor was kind of floated 764 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: out there weeks and weeks ago during the NBA Finals 765 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 1: in the Eastern Conference Finals, but during the playoffs, no doubt. 766 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: And look, I think that the moral of this story 767 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 1: is don't be disrespectful and don't clown people, or don't 768 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: try and make an example of people just to look 769 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: like the cool guy in the middle of a pandemic. 770 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: And let me explain Tom Cruise. And the video got 771 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 1: leaked or the audio got leaked of him airing out 772 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: somebody on the set of some movie he did where 773 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 1: he does his own stunts because he's a weirdo. Tom 774 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 1: Cruise aired out somebody that was on the set because 775 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: they weren't following the quote unquote proper COVID protocols on 776 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 1: set that he demanded everybody follow to do the movie. 777 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 1: And so this video or audio got released of Tom 778 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 1: Cruise just airing this person out, I mean, embarrassing them, 779 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:55,839 Speaker 1: humiliating them. And so it's kind of nice to get 780 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: a little bit of revenge because all these years later, 781 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: Tom Cruise was in hot pursuit of Shakira and she said, no, 782 00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 1: I'm good. I'm not really interested in, you know, like 783 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: having anything to do with a weirdo who likes to 784 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: expose people during a pandemic. So I'm gonna go to 785 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:12,840 Speaker 1: the Jimmy Butler route. So I'm a big fan of 786 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 1: this move. Next. 787 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 8: Jonas Twitter was in an uproar last night as multiple 788 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 8: men were throwing out the hot take that Australian actors 789 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:24,479 Speaker 8: Margot Robbie is quote mid, Jonas, do you care? 790 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 1: No, I don't listen. These people are losers. There's not 791 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: one single one of them who called her mid. That 792 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: would deny entry into club Margot Robbie if she invited 793 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: him in. 794 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 795 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:45,280 Speaker 4: the nation.

So Kyler Murray was talking 835 00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 1: recently about the situation in there his own and you know, 836 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,880 Speaker 1: he's pretty happy about sort of the direction of the organization, 837 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 1: and he's just kind of saying that, you know, he's 838 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: noticed mostly just some of the changes upstairs. You know 839 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 1: that the changes upstairs he felt like, you know, really 840 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: have got the team headed in the right direction and 841 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 1: just was really really happy about all of those changes 842 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:24,800 Speaker 1: there within the Arizona Cardinals. And well, there's just like 843 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 1: like one problem. All of those people that are now 844 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: gone are the same people who are the reason why 845 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:39,839 Speaker 1: you're there and why you got paid, like the front 846 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 1: office guys and the head coach and like that. That's 847 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,640 Speaker 1: like part of the reason why you were the number 848 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 1: one pick and you got paid all that money. And 849 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 1: and again I know the video game clause and the 850 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:55,320 Speaker 1: contract and all that. I know, that's you know what 851 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: was kind of embarrassing and all that, Like, totally on 852 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 1: board with that, I get all that. But if everybody 853 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:05,360 Speaker 1: who believed in you, which led to you being a 854 00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 1: part of the organization are no longer there, don't you 855 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,319 Speaker 1: think the writing might be on the wall that there 856 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 1: could be some changes happening very very soon. And maybe 857 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 1: those aren't the only ones. I mean, let's look at 858 00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 1: it like this, because I was making this point earlier, 859 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 1: like a few weeks ago during the offseason, like if 860 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 1: you just a big picture took a step back, we 861 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: all agree the Arizona Cardinals are going to be awful 862 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 1: this year. If you're a Cardinals fan, I don't think 863 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 1: I'm breaking any news, Like the optimism for your team 864 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 1: going into this season should not be high at all. 865 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:48,279 Speaker 1: And if you just look around and consider where you 866 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 1: were as an organization a couple of years ago, and 867 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 1: how bad that playoff game went against the Rams, and 868 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 1: how bad last season was injuries and all that included. Yes, 869 00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 1: I mean you feel like, well, we've got the quarterback 870 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 1: of the few, but he's coming off an injury and 871 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,840 Speaker 1: all of the people that believed in him were gone. 872 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,839 Speaker 1: And it's not like I'm speaking out of school here, 873 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: the expectations for the Arizona Cardinals are not high. And 874 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 1: the proof is if you look at the season win 875 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 1: totals this upcoming year, the Cardinals are at four and 876 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: a half. Okay, So, like what that tells me is 877 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 1: that the expectation is, well, they're probably going to be 878 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 1: like four and thirteen or maybe five and twelve. And 879 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: if five and twelve is considered an overachievement for your 880 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: football team, that's not great, okay, like just not an 881 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 1: ideal spot. So if you're a four win or five 882 00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 1: win team and you're one of the bottom teams in 883 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: the NFL, it means that you're going to be picking 884 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 1: high atop the draft. And it means that you may 885 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:55,239 Speaker 1: be picking so high in the draft that you're going 886 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:59,399 Speaker 1: to have your pick of whoever is there. And if 887 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 1: you believe enough of the people that are talking around 888 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 1: the scouting world, in the NFL, in the college football world, 889 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 1: everybody's talking about Caleb Williams like he's one of those 890 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence slash John Elway slash Andrew Luck type talents, 891 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:21,520 Speaker 1: can't miss generational. Whoever gets him, you're good to go. 892 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:29,120 Speaker 1: How in the hell if I'm Kyler Murray. Am I 893 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 1: thrilled about the upstairs editions and all of that stuff 894 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 1: when I know all it did was bring me one 895 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,520 Speaker 1: step closer to no longer being the quarterback of the 896 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals, like I would love to know. We've seen 897 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 1: kind of a recent example of this, but it actually 898 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 1: ended up going in the way of the current quarterback. 899 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 1: Like we've seen a recent example in Chicago where the 900 00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:00,840 Speaker 1: Bears had an opportunity to either draft a quarterback number 901 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 1: one overall with the number one pick and move on 902 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,000 Speaker 1: from Justin Fields, or stay with their guy. They've stayed 903 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,840 Speaker 1: with their guy, and there's a lot of optimism in 904 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:15,240 Speaker 1: Justin Fields. I would love to know what the decision 905 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:19,239 Speaker 1: would have been if Caleb Williams was there. Do the 906 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 1: Bears still make that same choice, because I don't know 907 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 1: that they do. That is how highly people are speaking 908 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 1: of Caleb Williams. And so if you're Kyler Murray and 909 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,320 Speaker 1: you're on a bad football team and you've got injury issues, 910 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: and you've got the character stuff that's popped up that 911 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 1: we've talked about on this show before and all of 912 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 1: the other things to go along with it, and on 913 00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:45,280 Speaker 1: top of that, your team now has new decision makers 914 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 1: in charge, a new head coach. It's all new, and 915 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:52,799 Speaker 1: they're looking to turn around the franchise. If that generational 916 00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 1: quarterback talent is sitting there and number one overall and 917 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: you've got an opportunity to take him, how the hell 918 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 1: are you not doing that? So Kyler Murray can be 919 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 1: as optimistic and speak as glowingly about the front office 920 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,640 Speaker 1: as he wants, But if they turn their back on 921 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 1: Steve Kime and Cliff Kingsbury, why the hell wouldn't they 922 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,920 Speaker 1: do the same thing to Kyler Murray. Well, the contract 923 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: and it would cost him a lot. Okay, it's a rebuild, 924 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:24,440 Speaker 1: it's going to cost you some things. But if you 925 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 1: wanted to move on from Kyler Murray because you had 926 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:29,800 Speaker 1: an opportunity to get a guy who's considered the next 927 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,880 Speaker 1: John Elway, the next Andrew Like, why wouldn't you do it? 928 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: So I understand the feeling there. I get why Murray 929 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 1: looks at it and says, oh, you know, I'm happy 930 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 1: with where we're headed, and you know, I feel like 931 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 1: there's been a change in the culture. But dude, like 932 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 1: part of that culture was him, and I've said this 933 00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 1: before I had a comment, and I don't want to 934 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 1: air this guy out because I would I would never 935 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: do that. But somebody who's a teammate of Kyler Murray, 936 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:01,360 Speaker 1: somebody pretty connected with the Arizona Cardinals, and I straight 937 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 1: up asked the guy, said, hey, is he is? He 938 00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 1: like kind of a pain in the ass and he said, yeah, 939 00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 1: loves video games. Like if you play video games, you're cool. 940 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: But that's kind of his thing. He's just I mean, 941 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:18,560 Speaker 1: he's just a different guy. So, like all of those 942 00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:21,319 Speaker 1: changes were made, Kyler Murray was a part of all 943 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 1: those changes, and the reason he's there is because of 944 00:50:24,560 --> 00:50:27,440 Speaker 1: the people who made those choices. So the idea that 945 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:30,080 Speaker 1: everything's safe and now we move on and he's got 946 00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:32,680 Speaker 1: his contract and he's good to go in Arizona, I 947 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: just think we could be looking at the final days 948 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,280 Speaker 1: of Kyler Murray as a quarterback with the Arizona Cardinals. 949 00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 1: And I've said it before, Man, when you hear how 950 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 1: people are talking about Caleb Williams and then we haven't 951 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:45,440 Speaker 1: even mentioned Drake May. If they're sitting at two and 952 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: Drake May's there, if they've got an evaluation on Drake May, 953 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 1: where they go, that's the guy. I mean, we think 954 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:55,200 Speaker 1: that he is just one notch below Caleb Williams. I 955 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 1: think there's a real potential we could see even more 956 00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 1: changes with the Arizona Cardinals. Jonas Knox he or Fox 957 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:03,360 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. By the way, we did talk about earlier 958 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 1: the situation in Minnesota. You talk about a brutally honest 959 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:12,360 Speaker 1: relationship between Kirk Cousins and Justin Jefferson. Justin Jefferson listed 960 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,320 Speaker 1: his top five quarterbacks recently. Kirk Cousins wasn't on the list. 961 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 1: They asked Kirk Cousins about it. He said, hey, listen, 962 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 1: I wanted to be honest. It's fine. And then last year, 963 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson invited kirk Cousins to work out with the 964 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,360 Speaker 1: teammates in the off season, like, hey, let's get together, 965 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,880 Speaker 1: throw the ball around, and kirk Cousins said, nah, good, 966 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 1: all good here hanging out with the family. It's just 967 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: like brutally honest relationship. All right, nobody's offended. It's all good. 968 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 1: We'll still go out and set a bunch of records 969 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 1: and throw for a bunch of yards and you know, 970 00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:43,239 Speaker 1: receptions and touchdowns and all good here. Like it is 971 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:47,719 Speaker 1: It is kind of interesting how we view Kirk Cousins, 972 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,799 Speaker 1: Like I still can't get over that. Like if you 973 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 1: were to just and if you think I'm nuts, if 974 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 1: you were to just go down a list of quarterbacks 975 00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: in the NFC, how many are you, without a shadow 976 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:04,320 Speaker 1: of a doubt taken before you get to Kirk Cousins. 977 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,360 Speaker 1: Like if you just if you did an entire list, 978 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,400 Speaker 1: how many are you doing before you get to Kirk Cousins. 979 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,320 Speaker 1: I mean, are you taking Sam Howell before Kirk Cousins? 980 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:15,759 Speaker 7: No? 981 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 1: Are you taking Daniel Jones before Kirk Cousins. No, I 982 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: wouldn't take anybody else in the NFC North, Justin Jefferson 983 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 1: or Justin Fields is unproven. Jared Goff had a good year, 984 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 1: but I think there's a lot of people who look 985 00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:35,360 Speaker 1: at Jared Goff and may kind of question that. Jordan 986 00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:41,480 Speaker 1: Love unproven, Desmond Ritter, Bryce Young unproven. Maybe Derek Carr 987 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 1: although he hasn't done it in the postseason, like Kirk 988 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 1: Cousins has Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray's injured. Matt Stafford Apparently 989 00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 1: the Rams were trying to trade him, like you gotta 990 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 1: go Gino Smith, Like we're talking about one of the 991 00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 1: top quarterbacks in the NFC. And yes, you could say, well, 992 00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:02,600 Speaker 1: the quarterbacking is down, so that's why he's there. I 993 00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 1: don't care. Give me the top player at his position 994 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:07,719 Speaker 1: at quarterback and a conference and I'll take my chances. 995 00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 1: That's why I still look at the reasoning find getting 996 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:12,919 Speaker 1: rid of Dalvin Cook, and I still scratch my head 997 00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:14,560 Speaker 1: because it feels like there was a little bit of 998 00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 1: a window for Kirk Cousins and the Vikings, and it 999 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 1: feels like the window may have been shut by the 1000 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,719 Speaker 1: Vikings himself.

I 1155 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:24,240 Speaker 3: thought we signed Willie Mays, you know, I mean, and 1156 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:28,040 Speaker 3: just a nonsense from from Jay Cutler who was fifty 1157 01:02:28,080 --> 01:02:33,680 Speaker 3: seven and fifty seven and going through a mediocre fifty 1158 01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:38,840 Speaker 3: seven and fifty seventh career, one playoff appearance, and you 1159 01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:42,560 Speaker 3: know what they gave I think your deal and spent 1160 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:45,160 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighteen million. That was a horrible take. 1161 01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 3: The Tony and the RUSSA can't manage. Let's get paid 1162 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 3: for a Griffoyle. I mean, there's horrible takes every day 1163 01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 3: in the town. There's nothing, there's no rest. Justin Fields 1164 01:02:54,560 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 3: is an MVP, a future MVP er. I mean, the 1165 01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:01,360 Speaker 3: nonsense that you're the rebail of Iago White, Sox rebuilt, 1166 01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 3: We're gonna run it. I would say, you're not, and 1167 01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:06,240 Speaker 3: they don't. What do you know? And then the next thing, 1168 01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:08,720 Speaker 3: you know, we're thirty eight and fifty six, you know. 1169 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:16,560 Speaker 3: So it's just a one mistake, one misread after another. Career. 1170 01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:20,400 Speaker 3: Media people keeping their jobs. They don't work really for 1171 01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 3: the papers anymore or even for some of the stations. 1172 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 3: They work for the teams because if they've left the 1173 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:28,360 Speaker 3: team and they're covering it, they ain't gonna be there 1174 01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:29,760 Speaker 3: for long, at least in this time. 1175 01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:33,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, you almost can't be critical anymore because because you'll 1176 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:36,560 Speaker 1: you'll get you'll get shot down. It's almost like I remember, 1177 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,760 Speaker 1: like if you covered, like I always felt bad for 1178 01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:42,800 Speaker 1: people who covered you know, maybe like an Alabama. If 1179 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:45,680 Speaker 1: you cover Alabama and you write for the TUSCALOUCID times, 1180 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:48,080 Speaker 1: are you right and that and your whole job is 1181 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 1: covering the team. It's difficult to do your job in 1182 01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 1: a way because that's that's the priority, that's the team 1183 01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:56,240 Speaker 1: that's there. 1184 01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:00,960 Speaker 3: The Bears, they're in a one in thirteen with George 1185 01:04:00,960 --> 01:04:03,760 Speaker 3: hallis up there and you're trying to keep your job 1186 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,120 Speaker 3: and he's trying to get rid of of because you're 1187 01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 3: telling the truth. Yeah, this has been going on for decades. 1188 01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:13,920 Speaker 1: And that's why I feel like those gigs are difficult 1189 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 1: the people that can do those and can have the 1190 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:19,840 Speaker 1: relationships with them, because so many people are sensitive now 1191 01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 1: to where if you try and be critical of a 1192 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:24,400 Speaker 1: team or of a player, like they'll just they'll shut 1193 01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:26,480 Speaker 1: you down. You won't get to speak to them you. 1194 01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:28,960 Speaker 3: Want to tell you to them. I'll give you a 1195 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,720 Speaker 3: perfect example. There were guys that could take it. And 1196 01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:35,480 Speaker 3: I was friends with the Mark Race. Hey, legit if 1197 01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:39,560 Speaker 3: you criticized them, Jeremy Ronick, legit. Now they were good players, 1198 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 3: but they made mistakes. Like a Chris Zorich, great guy, 1199 01:04:42,720 --> 01:04:45,240 Speaker 3: he could take the heat. But then the other guys, 1200 01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:48,800 Speaker 3: Brian Cox, Mark Carrier, I mean the list. I got 1201 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,440 Speaker 3: a list that would go around the block, you know 1202 01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:54,760 Speaker 3: what I mean of people that can't take it. So 1203 01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:58,920 Speaker 3: it's just nowadays it's different than it was. But I 1204 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 3: remember when we did our show, we had two hundred 1205 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:04,680 Speaker 3: some affiliates when I weren't on next them at that point, 1206 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:09,560 Speaker 3: but we took he from from schools, from affiliates. So uh, 1207 01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:12,440 Speaker 3: and look at what happened with the Brady recently. With 1208 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:14,560 Speaker 3: you know, you're getting it from your peers because you 1209 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:17,640 Speaker 3: have an opinion about a quarterback that might be accurate. 1210 01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:21,800 Speaker 3: So it's just gotten a little bit crazy where you 1211 01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 3: got to almost holl the line. I'm I'm one of 1212 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:29,160 Speaker 3: the few Justin Field good directors and folks. He's five 1213 01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:30,920 Speaker 3: and twenty five in his career. 1214 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 1: And got that. And here's here's the thing though, that 1215 01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:36,560 Speaker 1: I'll say about you, is that if Justin fields goes 1216 01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:39,439 Speaker 1: out and does have an MVP season, you'd be the first. 1217 01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:42,040 Speaker 1: You'd be the first one to raise your hand and say, 1218 01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:44,920 Speaker 1: all right, I got that one wrong, Like that's there's. 1219 01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:46,400 Speaker 3: One of the Bears. But you know what I would 1220 01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 3: say to him, it's the first one I've gotten wrong, 1221 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:54,520 Speaker 3: because I mean, because from Coupler, even before color do 1222 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:56,600 Speaker 3: you have The worst read I ever had on a 1223 01:05:56,640 --> 01:06:00,120 Speaker 3: Bear quarterback was Kate mcdown. I thought he was going 1224 01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:02,439 Speaker 3: to make it and he didn't. That was my bad 1225 01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:05,960 Speaker 3: read by running back bad read Curtisinus. I thought he 1226 01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:09,120 Speaker 3: was going to be a bulldog, you know, from Penn 1227 01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,720 Speaker 3: State for the Bears. But I mean when it comes 1228 01:06:11,760 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 3: to the quarterback, I have dominated. All I did was 1229 01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:17,160 Speaker 3: say we should have never gotten rid of Grid Truviski 1230 01:06:17,720 --> 01:06:22,560 Speaker 3: twenty nine and twenty one two playoff appearances and we 1231 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:26,520 Speaker 3: go to this. So the nonsense has been going on. 1232 01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:30,080 Speaker 3: We'll see what happens. This is a legit year for him. 1233 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,640 Speaker 3: He's got to win his first DATE games. Not only him, 1234 01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:35,440 Speaker 3: but the Bears got to play the first AI games. 1235 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:38,320 Speaker 3: He's got to show up. He can't go two and six. 1236 01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:40,680 Speaker 3: I think he's going to be on a short niche 1237 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:45,680 Speaker 3: after eight games, Joe, because they decided to take somebody 1238 01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:48,800 Speaker 3: of the new regime to try and stay with Justin Field. 1239 01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:51,560 Speaker 3: But I think the leach will be short now if 1240 01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:53,720 Speaker 3: he goes six and two, like you said, we'll be 1241 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:54,520 Speaker 3: thrown for the kid. 1242 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:58,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. And also if it turns out that Justin Field 1243 01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:01,360 Speaker 1: struggles but Bryce Young light up the league. I mean 1244 01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:04,600 Speaker 1: Ryan Ryan Poles is on notice like that. 1245 01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:07,480 Speaker 3: Like that's not because I mean they got a beating 1246 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:11,160 Speaker 3: because Trubisky. It's not that Trubisky was a bad quarterback 1247 01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:14,960 Speaker 3: because I'm gonna I was here, nobody, no Bead fans 1248 01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:18,680 Speaker 3: or Bear media. So we need Mahomes to be drafted second. 1249 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:23,560 Speaker 3: Nobody nobody wanted Watson. I wanted Watson. But since Mahomes 1250 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:28,160 Speaker 3: took off, all these Bleacher features are sitting out there 1251 01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:31,600 Speaker 3: going we should have taken Mahomes. Nobody at that point 1252 01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:34,080 Speaker 3: from the Bears was going to take Mahomes, and as 1253 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 3: it turned out, Mitch paid the price worth because he 1254 01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:37,720 Speaker 3: couldn't match them. 1255 01:07:37,880 --> 01:07:40,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. It's also like, you know, the one of the 1256 01:07:40,320 --> 01:07:44,200 Speaker 1: comps that I look at, so look to uh, I 1257 01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:46,560 Speaker 1: think TWOA is a good quarterback. I mean the concussion 1258 01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:49,520 Speaker 1: issues are there. But the problem is he was taken 1259 01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:52,040 Speaker 1: in the same draft as Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert, 1260 01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:54,920 Speaker 1: and so no matter what he does, there's gonna be 1261 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:57,640 Speaker 1: the comps that are done to those other two guys. 1262 01:07:57,640 --> 01:08:00,360 Speaker 1: And so no matter what Trubisky did, there's going to 1263 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:03,880 Speaker 1: be Compstatlehomes into Deshaun Watson, and that wasn't fair to Trubisky. 1264 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,720 Speaker 3: I talked to Cole Combe Thatt as my cousin, and 1265 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 3: I talked to good friends with his dad, Frank, and 1266 01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:15,040 Speaker 3: Frank played for the Bears and he played for Purdue. 1267 01:08:15,120 --> 01:08:19,600 Speaker 3: He's a hactive ball player. But he told me Trubisky's 1268 01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:23,280 Speaker 3: mistake wasn't his. He was drafted second. If he was 1269 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:26,280 Speaker 3: drafted eight for ninth, he would have been fine. And 1270 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 3: they go twenty nine to twenty one. It just seems 1271 01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:32,280 Speaker 3: like the media went against them. I mean, I can't understand. 1272 01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:35,360 Speaker 3: You know, people praise Kyler Murray and these other guys, 1273 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:38,559 Speaker 3: not that they don't get some criticism, but I mean 1274 01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:44,160 Speaker 3: even the Garoppolo stuff, you know, where he's been to 1275 01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:48,120 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl and in the finals, and the nonsense. 1276 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:51,960 Speaker 3: You know, let's bring in this trade lance. What is 1277 01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 3: going on with everybody. You have a winning quarterback and 1278 01:08:56,600 --> 01:08:59,280 Speaker 3: you see that. So I just see some bad decisions 1279 01:08:59,320 --> 01:09:02,840 Speaker 3: being made. I will give San Francisco credit. As much 1280 01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:05,320 Speaker 3: as they try to stub their toll, they find somebody 1281 01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:06,559 Speaker 3: that gets the job done. 1282 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,799 Speaker 1: Mike North joining us here on Fox Sports Radio.

And for that we turn 1414 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 1: it over to our executive producer, Brandon True and to 1415 01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:50,640 Speaker 1: find out what the hell we've missed so far in 1416 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:52,799 Speaker 1: the show. Brandon Jonas, there's. 1417 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,679 Speaker 8: A report out right now that Pro Football Focus believes 1418 01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:59,679 Speaker 8: that Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars quarterback could be a legitimate MVP 1419 01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:03,080 Speaker 8: candidate entering twenty twenty three. Now. I looked it up 1420 01:16:03,439 --> 01:16:06,080 Speaker 8: and currently the odds for Lawrence to win the MVP 1421 01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:08,040 Speaker 8: are plus fourteen hundred. 1422 01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:11,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, listen there, he's starting to get some love. I 1423 01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:13,080 Speaker 1: think people look at it and they go, this is 1424 01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 1: a team that's on the rise. They've seemingly only gotten 1425 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,599 Speaker 1: better in the offseason. They've gotten healthier, They've got another 1426 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:23,479 Speaker 1: year of experience. They had playoff experience last year. You're 1427 01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:28,120 Speaker 1: also bringing in Calvin Ridley, America's wide receiver. Who listen. 1428 01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:32,559 Speaker 1: It is interesting every time we talk gambling odds. When 1429 01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:34,639 Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley is a part of the team, That's always 1430 01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 1: a fun topic of conversation. It's fun to see everybody 1431 01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:38,599 Speaker 1: get a little bit weird about it. But I can 1432 01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:42,120 Speaker 1: understand the appeal to Trevor Lawrence. I think people look 1433 01:16:42,120 --> 01:16:43,800 Speaker 1: at him as the next guy who's going to make 1434 01:16:43,800 --> 01:16:47,080 Speaker 1: the leap and become the MVP of the league. I 1435 01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:50,960 Speaker 1: still will take my chances of Aaron Rodgers because if 1436 01:16:50,960 --> 01:16:56,240 Speaker 1: it's all about the story, to me, the difference between 1437 01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 1: the Jets and what they do this year and what 1438 01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:01,040 Speaker 1: they did last year as a Teaho finished last in 1439 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:04,200 Speaker 1: the AFC East are going to be because of Aaron Rodgers. Now, 1440 01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:06,840 Speaker 1: do I believe that he's going to win it? No, 1441 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:09,160 Speaker 1: because I think there are people in the media it's 1442 01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:12,000 Speaker 1: a narrative driven award. I think they're sick of Aaron Rodgers. 1443 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:14,000 Speaker 1: They don't like it. They still hold a grudge about 1444 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:17,160 Speaker 1: the immunization story from a couple of years ago. But 1445 01:17:17,320 --> 01:17:19,640 Speaker 1: for me, if I were voting on it, if the 1446 01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:21,479 Speaker 1: Jets are who a lot of people think they're going 1447 01:17:21,520 --> 01:17:23,480 Speaker 1: to be, it's going to be because of the quarterback 1448 01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 1: that feels like the MVP. What else we got? 1449 01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:30,360 Speaker 8: All right? So, earlier this offseason, the Phoenix Coyotes signed 1450 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:33,760 Speaker 8: Alex Kalchenyak, who actually played for your Pittsford Penguins, at 1451 01:17:33,760 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 8: one point to one year, seven hundred and seventy five 1452 01:17:37,960 --> 01:17:43,000 Speaker 8: thousand dollars contract, and they repeated they reportedly dropped him. 1453 01:17:43,360 --> 01:17:46,519 Speaker 8: They reass seriously. Last week, well it's come out. He 1454 01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:50,400 Speaker 8: was arrested, and he was arrested for crashing a car 1455 01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:53,080 Speaker 8: into a sign. He said that police found him, he 1456 01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:57,280 Speaker 8: was very erratic and aggressive toward officers. He apparently hurled 1457 01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:02,479 Speaker 8: racial slurs at them, and he threatened them, saying he's rushing. 1458 01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:05,280 Speaker 8: By the way. He said to the cops, I'm gonna 1459 01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 8: chop you, your wife, your daughter, one phone call and 1460 01:18:09,040 --> 01:18:12,200 Speaker 8: you're all dead. Your whole family, your bloodline is dead. 1461 01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:15,919 Speaker 1: It's amazing. My favorite part about this story is afterwards 1462 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:18,559 Speaker 1: when he said that he was just joking. That's always good, 1463 01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:20,800 Speaker 1: Like I've been pulled over before. I've actually been pulled 1464 01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:23,559 Speaker 1: over on my way into work where you know, they 1465 01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:25,920 Speaker 1: thought I was driving a little bit too fast. I wasn't. 1466 01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:27,599 Speaker 1: There was a dip in the road on the freeway 1467 01:18:27,640 --> 01:18:29,280 Speaker 1: where I go. I mean, the whole thing. 1468 01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:29,679 Speaker 3: Was a joke. 1469 01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,719 Speaker 1: My point is I've been pulled up.
