It was a difficult decision, 42 00:01:56,628 --> 00:01:58,788 Speaker 7: but not difficult in a negative way, to be quite 43 00:01:58,828 --> 00:02:01,428 Speaker 7: honest with you. It was difficult in a positive way. 44 00:02:01,468 --> 00:02:04,388 Speaker 7: The decision was difficult because of what they're capable of doing. 45 00:02:04,508 --> 00:02:04,708 Speaker 6: One. 46 00:02:05,868 --> 00:02:09,148 Speaker 7: Decision was difficult because of how they have conducted themselves 47 00:02:09,548 --> 00:02:11,788 Speaker 7: as opposed to the things that they fall shorty in 48 00:02:12,188 --> 00:02:15,188 Speaker 7: in terms of capabilities or negative conduct. 49 00:02:15,668 --> 00:02:17,948 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, listen, I think I came here to 50 00:02:17,948 --> 00:02:20,468 Speaker 5: be a Pittsburgh here to help us win another Super Bowl. 51 00:02:20,508 --> 00:02:22,788 Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's the bottom line. That's that's the focus. 52 00:02:22,908 --> 00:02:24,308 Speaker 4: You know, I'm not going to shurecut it. 53 00:02:24,348 --> 00:02:26,588 Speaker 2: You know, it's you know, I believe in this football team. 54 00:02:27,268 --> 00:02:29,268 Speaker 5: You know, we believe in each other, and we got 55 00:02:29,268 --> 00:02:29,828 Speaker 5: to do the work. 56 00:02:30,148 --> 00:02:32,028 Speaker 4: And that's that's just what it is. And so I'm 57 00:02:32,068 --> 00:02:32,748 Speaker 4: excited about it. 58 00:02:32,748 --> 00:02:34,948 Speaker 5: Man, I'm excited about the challenge. I look forward to, 59 00:02:34,988 --> 00:02:37,708 Speaker 5: I look forward to the obstacles ahead and let's let's get. 60 00:02:37,628 --> 00:02:39,548 Speaker 4: Ready to play the football. 61 00:02:39,868 --> 00:02:41,948 Speaker 3: Leave it to Mike Tomlin to, I think, pick the 62 00:02:41,988 --> 00:02:45,468 Speaker 3: perfect word to describe how this decision went down, and frankly, 63 00:02:45,468 --> 00:02:47,748 Speaker 3: how our conversations have been going. Which is which which 64 00:02:47,788 --> 00:02:51,228 Speaker 3: quarterback is most capable to do this job? Tom, I'm 65 00:02:51,228 --> 00:02:54,388 Speaker 3: sure you've been tapped into not only really the opinions 66 00:02:54,508 --> 00:02:57,548 Speaker 3: of people locally in Pittsburgh, but also then the narrative 67 00:02:57,588 --> 00:03:00,548 Speaker 3: that grew as Justin Field's played mostly in the preseason. 68 00:03:00,828 --> 00:03:02,388 Speaker 3: How did Mike Tomalin get here? What do you think 69 00:03:02,388 --> 00:03:03,068 Speaker 3: about this decision? 70 00:03:03,068 --> 00:03:05,548 Speaker 5: Well, I would go back to the night that the 71 00:03:05,588 --> 00:03:08,908 Speaker 5: news broke of the Justin Fields trade, which remember that 72 00:03:09,028 --> 00:03:11,908 Speaker 5: followed a very unique sequence of events where Russell Wilson 73 00:03:11,988 --> 00:03:15,068 Speaker 5: announces on his social media that he's signing with the Steelers. 74 00:03:15,388 --> 00:03:18,668 Speaker 5: Kenny Pickett basically finds out at that time, Hey, Russ 75 00:03:18,748 --> 00:03:20,948 Speaker 5: is coming in. Pickett thinks he's going to get a 76 00:03:21,028 --> 00:03:23,748 Speaker 5: chance to compete. Then Mike Tomlin tells him, hey, no, 77 00:03:23,868 --> 00:03:26,188 Speaker 5: Russ is in the pole position. Pickett says, you know what, 78 00:03:26,468 --> 00:03:28,548 Speaker 5: I think, I want to go someplace else. That's what 79 00:03:28,668 --> 00:03:31,028 Speaker 5: led to the Justin Fields trade, which broke on a 80 00:03:31,068 --> 00:03:33,668 Speaker 5: Saturday night at the end of free agency week. I 81 00:03:33,708 --> 00:03:35,508 Speaker 5: was out to dinner because you know, sometimes you have 82 00:03:35,548 --> 00:03:37,428 Speaker 5: to go out of your life at Actually I've been 83 00:03:37,428 --> 00:03:39,588 Speaker 5: informed by my wife that I was at dinner that night. 84 00:03:39,948 --> 00:03:43,188 Speaker 5: She will tell you I was not really there, however, 85 00:03:43,748 --> 00:03:47,108 Speaker 5: so immediately Ian Revboord tweets that news. I get on 86 00:03:47,188 --> 00:03:50,108 Speaker 5: my phone and I tweet out this from a very 87 00:03:50,148 --> 00:03:53,868 Speaker 5: plug being source on exactly what the situation was, which 88 00:03:53,908 --> 00:03:56,468 Speaker 5: is is it a competition between Russell Wilson Justin Fields. 89 00:03:56,468 --> 00:03:59,748 Speaker 5: The exact text I got back was, Russ is the start. 90 00:04:00,108 --> 00:04:04,388 Speaker 5: That's March okay, that is March sixteenth. At that point 91 00:04:05,108 --> 00:04:07,188 Speaker 5: was it was very apparent that this is going to 92 00:04:07,228 --> 00:04:09,508 Speaker 5: be a situation where Russell Wilson was gonna have to 93 00:04:09,548 --> 00:04:11,588 Speaker 5: lose the job or Justin Fields was going to have 94 00:04:11,628 --> 00:04:14,668 Speaker 5: to do something incredible to get the job. How does 95 00:04:14,868 --> 00:04:16,668 Speaker 5: Mike Tomlin want to win football games? He wants to 96 00:04:16,708 --> 00:04:19,508 Speaker 5: run the football and play great defense. Get a guy 97 00:04:19,548 --> 00:04:22,748 Speaker 5: in whose experience, and once Mike Tomlin or the Steelers 98 00:04:22,748 --> 00:04:25,868 Speaker 5: in general commit to a plan, generally. 99 00:04:25,468 --> 00:04:26,868 Speaker 2: Speaking, they sick with it. 100 00:04:26,948 --> 00:04:27,948 Speaker 5: That's a good way to put it. 101 00:04:29,108 --> 00:04:32,588 Speaker 8: I liked that we've spent maybe a three dozen segments 102 00:04:32,628 --> 00:04:34,388 Speaker 8: debating this quarterback controversy. 103 00:04:34,628 --> 00:04:36,868 Speaker 4: Pelis comes in five seconds. He's like, this was never 104 00:04:36,908 --> 00:04:38,828 Speaker 4: a thing. Guys, you've been talking about nonsense. You could 105 00:04:38,828 --> 00:04:42,308 Speaker 4: reference my tweet from months ago. You've been wasting your time. Tom. 106 00:04:42,508 --> 00:04:43,708 Speaker 4: That's a power move by you. 107 00:04:44,108 --> 00:04:46,388 Speaker 8: I'm glad we have an answer in this because we 108 00:04:46,428 --> 00:04:49,828 Speaker 8: don't have to do any more segments debating it. I thought, guys, 109 00:04:49,988 --> 00:04:52,748 Speaker 8: I thought we were going to slay another demon when 110 00:04:52,828 --> 00:04:55,108 Speaker 8: Gerrod Meyo was going to tell us the Patriots quarterback. 111 00:04:55,188 --> 00:04:57,628 Speaker 8: But he's like, I know, I'm just not telling you. 112 00:04:57,668 --> 00:04:59,268 Speaker 8: And that was all kinds of fun. Thank you for 113 00:04:59,308 --> 00:05:02,108 Speaker 8: that one, coach. And this is a weird quarterback competition, 114 00:05:02,388 --> 00:05:04,428 Speaker 8: even though Tom to think it was. I actually I 115 00:05:04,548 --> 00:05:06,508 Speaker 8: did think it was because the wild card was that 116 00:05:06,588 --> 00:05:09,428 Speaker 8: Russell Wilson started camp injured, and Justin Fields is really 117 00:05:09,428 --> 00:05:12,828 Speaker 8: athletic and impressive and kind of seductive to a training camp. 118 00:05:13,188 --> 00:05:15,588 Speaker 8: But it's almost like it came down really on the 119 00:05:15,588 --> 00:05:18,748 Speaker 8: field to one throw. One throw in the last preseason 120 00:05:18,828 --> 00:05:21,068 Speaker 8: game that they played, Russ was not out there at all. 121 00:05:21,108 --> 00:05:21,748 Speaker 4: Look at the throw. 122 00:05:21,868 --> 00:05:25,588 Speaker 8: This was a fantastic throw to the near sideline, across 123 00:05:25,628 --> 00:05:28,468 Speaker 8: his body and this is like, oh Man, clean pocket, 124 00:05:28,548 --> 00:05:31,348 Speaker 8: step up, deliver pick in sideline, got. 125 00:05:31,188 --> 00:05:32,388 Speaker 4: It absolutely beautiful. 126 00:05:32,828 --> 00:05:35,468 Speaker 8: Sometimes you can lose the job with one play, and 127 00:05:35,508 --> 00:05:37,468 Speaker 8: I think we saw no Colin through that for the 128 00:05:37,548 --> 00:05:39,948 Speaker 8: Raiders when you threw a pick six. I think sometimes 129 00:05:40,148 --> 00:05:42,628 Speaker 8: you can win a job with one throw, especially when 130 00:05:42,628 --> 00:05:44,148 Speaker 8: you have the resume. 131 00:05:44,228 --> 00:05:46,348 Speaker 4: I'll be at a distant resume for Russell Wilson. 132 00:05:46,548 --> 00:05:47,988 Speaker 8: I was on a record from the get go that 133 00:05:48,028 --> 00:05:50,588 Speaker 8: I really thought Justin Field's was going to steal this job. 134 00:05:51,228 --> 00:05:52,748 Speaker 4: I was wrong. Mike Tomlin knows. 135 00:05:52,988 --> 00:05:54,948 Speaker 8: This is an interesting one though, because as we said 136 00:05:54,948 --> 00:05:58,068 Speaker 8: many times, Russell Wilson has no equity with the Steelers, 137 00:05:58,108 --> 00:05:59,668 Speaker 8: he has no equity with Steelers fans. 138 00:05:59,708 --> 00:06:02,148 Speaker 4: I think he needs to win quickly or it gets ugly. 139 00:06:02,228 --> 00:06:05,028 Speaker 8: He starts week one, I think Justin Field is looming 140 00:06:05,268 --> 00:06:07,668 Speaker 8: and speaking of looming, oc Bar, is it just me 141 00:06:07,828 --> 00:06:10,348 Speaker 8: or is there something different about your smile this morning, 142 00:06:10,468 --> 00:06:12,108 Speaker 8: or like the shine off that head of yours. I 143 00:06:12,108 --> 00:06:14,828 Speaker 8: feel like you've got something here to say about this topic. 144 00:06:14,988 --> 00:06:17,148 Speaker 4: You have a different glow this morning. Oh well, thank you. 145 00:06:17,188 --> 00:06:17,988 Speaker 4: I appreciate it. 146 00:06:18,188 --> 00:06:19,708 Speaker 6: I thought it was the fact that I got nine 147 00:06:19,708 --> 00:06:21,428 Speaker 6: hours of sleep, but you're telling me it. 148 00:06:21,588 --> 00:06:23,068 Speaker 4: Wow. I lied. 149 00:06:23,148 --> 00:06:27,068 Speaker 6: That's total cap right there. But there is a shine 150 00:06:27,108 --> 00:06:29,948 Speaker 6: because I think, if you know, you've been following kind 151 00:06:29,988 --> 00:06:32,668 Speaker 6: of my sentiment and my feelings about this. I've been 152 00:06:32,828 --> 00:06:36,748 Speaker 6: very strong on the fact that this was Russell Wilson's 153 00:06:36,828 --> 00:06:39,948 Speaker 6: job and you guys are just getting to know me. 154 00:06:41,508 --> 00:06:43,468 Speaker 6: One of the things you guys may not know about 155 00:06:43,508 --> 00:06:47,428 Speaker 6: me is that I'm a very big Michael Jackson fan. 156 00:06:48,068 --> 00:06:48,988 Speaker 4: Guess what, Okay? 157 00:06:49,308 --> 00:06:53,708 Speaker 6: Today is Michael Jackson's birthday, and how great is it 158 00:06:53,828 --> 00:06:57,788 Speaker 6: that I nailed this with Russell Wilson and we get 159 00:06:57,788 --> 00:07:01,228 Speaker 6: to celebrate Michael Jackson's birthday on the day that Russell 160 00:07:01,228 --> 00:07:03,988 Speaker 6: Wilson is named the Starter. So I figured I do 161 00:07:03,988 --> 00:07:06,508 Speaker 6: a little something different for you guys today. We're going 162 00:07:06,548 --> 00:07:11,068 Speaker 6: to celebrate in a big way. Oh, I'm headed over there, 163 00:07:11,348 --> 00:07:13,548 Speaker 6: right over here. Can I get a jacket? 164 00:07:13,548 --> 00:07:19,228 Speaker 4: Please? All right? Yeah, we're going. 165 00:07:19,188 --> 00:07:22,388 Speaker 6: Right here, right there. Please, gloves, thank you so much. 166 00:07:23,028 --> 00:07:25,828 Speaker 6: I've got my glove here. I bought this. Now I 167 00:07:25,868 --> 00:07:27,708 Speaker 6: will say that I got this from my son's room 168 00:07:28,428 --> 00:07:32,748 Speaker 6: and I did not try it on. Okay, that's all right, 169 00:07:32,948 --> 00:07:36,068 Speaker 6: and the glove is not you, tom Guess what? But 170 00:07:36,148 --> 00:07:38,468 Speaker 6: I won't quit on this one. Here we go, let's 171 00:07:38,508 --> 00:07:41,428 Speaker 6: roll it. The reason why we're celebrating this is because 172 00:07:41,628 --> 00:07:42,868 Speaker 6: Russell Wilson. 173 00:07:42,588 --> 00:07:43,588 Speaker 4: Has been a thriller. 174 00:07:43,908 --> 00:07:47,308 Speaker 6: His de mind has been greatly exaggerated. So we'd be 175 00:07:47,388 --> 00:07:49,348 Speaker 6: Russell Wilson on that one. But I want to tell 176 00:07:49,388 --> 00:07:53,468 Speaker 6: you the real reason why Mike Tomlin decided that he 177 00:07:53,548 --> 00:07:56,468 Speaker 6: wanted to play Russell Wilson, to have him as the starter, 178 00:07:56,788 --> 00:08:03,028 Speaker 6: because he's danger Russian danger, Russian man. 179 00:08:03,788 --> 00:08:05,308 Speaker 4: Change. 180 00:08:06,548 --> 00:08:09,108 Speaker 6: This is it right here? I love it. I love 181 00:08:09,108 --> 00:08:11,388 Speaker 6: it for the Pittsburgh Steelers. But my last point on 182 00:08:11,428 --> 00:08:15,508 Speaker 6: this was Mike Tomlin. Mike Tomlin knew that his legacy 183 00:08:15,628 --> 00:08:17,548 Speaker 6: is on the line, so he had to do none 184 00:08:17,548 --> 00:08:19,948 Speaker 6: other than look at the. 185 00:08:19,828 --> 00:08:23,588 Speaker 4: Man in the mirror. Where is it? Where is it, 186 00:08:23,668 --> 00:08:27,228 Speaker 4: show him, show him we don't have it. We don't 187 00:08:27,228 --> 00:08:27,508 Speaker 4: have it. 188 00:08:27,628 --> 00:08:30,068 Speaker 6: But he had to look at the man in the mirror. 189 00:08:30,348 --> 00:08:32,268 Speaker 6: That's my point on it. I think I should wear 190 00:08:32,268 --> 00:08:34,028 Speaker 6: this for the rest of the A Bloc. I think 191 00:08:34,068 --> 00:08:35,708 Speaker 6: I'm gonna wear it now it doesn't fit. 192 00:08:36,308 --> 00:08:47,908 Speaker 2: But oh, what if Russell Wilson is bad? 193 00:08:48,588 --> 00:08:52,428 Speaker 4: Nice? I like that. I like that, I like that 194 00:08:53,068 --> 00:08:55,628 Speaker 4: was wrong he's that? What if he is bad? 195 00:08:56,428 --> 00:09:00,028 Speaker 6: Oh, now you're going to be starting something. You're going 196 00:09:00,108 --> 00:09:02,988 Speaker 6: to be starting something. I think we would probably end 197 00:09:03,068 --> 00:09:05,388 Speaker 6: up they'll probably end up starting justin Fhills is probably 198 00:09:05,428 --> 00:09:06,468 Speaker 6: what they'll end up starting. 199 00:09:06,668 --> 00:09:08,308 Speaker 4: How fast could that happen? I wonder? 200 00:09:09,148 --> 00:09:09,428 Speaker 2: I think that. 201 00:09:09,948 --> 00:09:11,988 Speaker 8: Listen, it's not just looking at the man in the mirror. 202 00:09:12,028 --> 00:09:15,388 Speaker 8: It's it's asking him to change his ways, you know 203 00:09:15,428 --> 00:09:16,628 Speaker 8: what I'm saying, Like, there's a whole. 204 00:09:16,468 --> 00:09:18,628 Speaker 4: Second part of that. But ackbar what I love what 205 00:09:18,668 --> 00:09:19,948 Speaker 4: you did there? And I'm dead serious. 206 00:09:20,268 --> 00:09:22,268 Speaker 8: You could have easily just gone back to the vault 207 00:09:22,308 --> 00:09:25,348 Speaker 8: and shown a bunch of vinches Russell Wilson, Seattle Seahawks highlights. 208 00:09:25,548 --> 00:09:28,148 Speaker 8: That's Denver Russell Wilson. That used to be made the 209 00:09:28,188 --> 00:09:31,588 Speaker 8: point that's that's recent Russell Wilson. Now, I don't know 210 00:09:31,788 --> 00:09:34,508 Speaker 8: if if Sean Payton is laughing like Vincent Price at 211 00:09:34,508 --> 00:09:36,428 Speaker 8: the end of the video, but like we'll find out. 212 00:09:36,468 --> 00:09:38,708 Speaker 8: This year he got the starting job he wanted. He 213 00:09:38,748 --> 00:09:40,708 Speaker 8: won the starting job for the Steelers. Unequivocally. 214 00:09:40,828 --> 00:09:43,988 Speaker 6: Yeah, he was a top ten Russian quarterback lash last year, 215 00:09:44,028 --> 00:09:45,908 Speaker 6: the last couple of years with the Denver Broncos. People 216 00:09:46,028 --> 00:09:49,028 Speaker 6: forget about that. They think, Oh, Russell Wilson's getting older. Yes, 217 00:09:49,028 --> 00:09:51,188 Speaker 6: he's getting older, but he's still making things happen. 218 00:09:52,068 --> 00:09:55,508 Speaker 3: Tom is I don't even want to say it's a 219 00:09:55,508 --> 00:09:55,908 Speaker 3: glove on. 220 00:09:55,988 --> 00:09:56,148 Speaker 2: Tom. 221 00:09:56,228 --> 00:09:57,988 Speaker 4: Let's go pretty sure. 222 00:09:59,028 --> 00:10:00,908 Speaker 2: What made you been in here? 223 00:10:02,228 --> 00:10:04,908 Speaker 3: If it's Tom hand? 224 00:10:05,508 --> 00:10:07,588 Speaker 4: Okay? 225 00:10:07,908 --> 00:10:10,348 Speaker 2: Now, actually no, there's something wrong in the glove. There 226 00:10:10,388 --> 00:10:10,628 Speaker 2: we go. 227 00:10:10,788 --> 00:10:12,548 Speaker 4: My son's got it on. 228 00:10:12,988 --> 00:10:16,788 Speaker 5: Oh I would say this with Mike Tomlin. He's pound 229 00:10:16,828 --> 00:10:21,788 Speaker 5: ways to win with everybody he's ever had a quarterback. Essentially, 230 00:10:22,548 --> 00:10:24,588 Speaker 5: this is going to be a very unique type of 231 00:10:24,628 --> 00:10:28,028 Speaker 5: a situation, different vibe, different type of a dynamic here. 232 00:10:28,228 --> 00:10:29,988 Speaker 5: I mean fast to see how it plays out a park. 233 00:10:30,028 --> 00:10:30,508 Speaker 4: Good job. 234 00:10:31,508 --> 00:10:33,348 Speaker 3: I can't take it seriously with that glove on, Tom, 235 00:10:33,868 --> 00:10:35,508 Speaker 3: you know who I can't take seriously in a moment 236 00:10:35,588 --> 00:10:37,708 Speaker 3: like this, is that we have now found out who 237 00:10:37,748 --> 00:10:40,268 Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers starting quarterback is. We're going to Ian 238 00:10:40,348 --> 00:10:44,108 Speaker 3: Rapaport now because the New England Patriots finally and Girod 239 00:10:44,148 --> 00:10:46,708 Speaker 3: Mayo sounds like they have made their decision at QB one. 240 00:10:48,148 --> 00:10:48,508 Speaker 2: They have. 241 00:10:48,948 --> 00:10:52,308 Speaker 9: Sources say Gid Mayo has just informed players in a 242 00:10:52,388 --> 00:10:56,348 Speaker 9: team meeting that Jacoby Brissett is their starting quarterback to 243 00:10:56,428 --> 00:11:00,268 Speaker 9: begin the twenty twenty four season. That means that Drake 244 00:11:00,428 --> 00:11:02,908 Speaker 9: may the number three overall pick, who everyone in New 245 00:11:02,948 --> 00:11:05,388 Speaker 9: England believes is a big time part of the future 246 00:11:05,708 --> 00:11:09,948 Speaker 9: their franchise quarterback, will begin this season as a backup. Now, 247 00:11:10,108 --> 00:11:12,148 Speaker 9: Jordd Mayo has said to me with the media in 248 00:11:12,188 --> 00:11:14,668 Speaker 9: a couple of minutes while likely explain more about his decision, 249 00:11:14,668 --> 00:11:17,828 Speaker 9: but there's so many factors that go into making preset 250 00:11:17,988 --> 00:11:20,628 Speaker 9: the starter to begin with. Now, First of all, we 251 00:11:20,708 --> 00:11:23,668 Speaker 9: talked to Jacoby Brissett in August and he was very 252 00:11:23,788 --> 00:11:26,588 Speaker 9: clear that he believes he is the starter. He believes 253 00:11:26,588 --> 00:11:29,468 Speaker 9: he's the right man not just to mentor Drake Mann 254 00:11:29,508 --> 00:11:31,508 Speaker 9: the other young quarterbacks, but to be the starter of 255 00:11:31,508 --> 00:11:32,028 Speaker 9: this team. 256 00:11:32,428 --> 00:11:33,308 Speaker 4: And then there's so much. 257 00:11:33,348 --> 00:11:35,148 Speaker 9: This team is still trying to figure out so much. 258 00:11:35,148 --> 00:11:37,588 Speaker 9: They're trying to get together the offensive line, what kind 259 00:11:37,628 --> 00:11:40,068 Speaker 9: of weapons do they have? How proficient are they going 260 00:11:40,108 --> 00:11:40,908 Speaker 9: to be on offense? 261 00:11:41,228 --> 00:11:41,788 Speaker 2: It's a lot. 262 00:11:41,828 --> 00:11:44,348 Speaker 9: And if you put a rookie out there right away 263 00:11:44,588 --> 00:11:46,868 Speaker 9: when he might be ready and for sure he has 264 00:11:46,868 --> 00:11:50,508 Speaker 9: shown plenty plenty of flashes in preseason games and in 265 00:11:50,548 --> 00:11:53,348 Speaker 9: training camp, they are clear this is the guy. But 266 00:11:53,388 --> 00:11:55,148 Speaker 9: if we put him out too early, there might be 267 00:11:55,148 --> 00:11:58,268 Speaker 9: a risk of maybe doing something to force him to 268 00:11:58,308 --> 00:12:00,908 Speaker 9: kind of go backwards in his development. Patriots are not 269 00:12:00,948 --> 00:12:02,468 Speaker 9: going to do that. So it is going to be 270 00:12:02,868 --> 00:12:05,908 Speaker 9: Jacoby Brissett, who saw to be a bridge starter. 271 00:12:05,708 --> 00:12:06,268 Speaker 4: In New England. 272 00:12:06,548 --> 00:12:09,268 Speaker 9: He is now starting the twenty twenty four season. 273 00:12:09,388 --> 00:12:11,388 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was back in early August raps sheet, thank 274 00:12:11,428 --> 00:12:14,868 Speaker 3: you that Jacoby Brissett was on ITC with Scott Pully. 275 00:12:14,868 --> 00:12:17,548 Speaker 3: He said, I want to mentor Drake May, but I 276 00:12:17,588 --> 00:12:19,908 Speaker 3: am going to fight for this starting job. I want 277 00:12:19,948 --> 00:12:21,948 Speaker 3: it to be mine for the time that I am here. 278 00:12:22,508 --> 00:12:26,668 Speaker 3: So Tom now a different similar question to what's happening 279 00:12:26,708 --> 00:12:30,428 Speaker 3: in Pittsburgh, which is how long does this scenario go 280 00:12:30,508 --> 00:12:34,068 Speaker 3: on for Jacoby Brissett and was it always his job 281 00:12:34,348 --> 00:12:35,988 Speaker 3: and Drake May was going to have to do something 282 00:12:36,028 --> 00:12:36,668 Speaker 3: more than he showed. 283 00:12:36,788 --> 00:12:39,308 Speaker 5: He got some mixed signals from Drod Mayo in recent 284 00:12:39,388 --> 00:12:42,468 Speaker 5: days where on one hand he's saying that Drake May 285 00:12:42,508 --> 00:12:45,068 Speaker 5: is clearly the second best quarterback on the roster, and 286 00:12:45,108 --> 00:12:48,548 Speaker 5: then the next day says Drake May outplayed Jacoby Brisset. 287 00:12:48,748 --> 00:12:51,908 Speaker 5: Here's the translation as I can best understand it. We 288 00:12:51,948 --> 00:12:54,028 Speaker 5: all can watch the games and see what Drake May 289 00:12:54,108 --> 00:12:55,948 Speaker 5: is doing. You can see the athletic ability, you can 290 00:12:55,948 --> 00:12:58,308 Speaker 5: see the arm you can see all the potential. But 291 00:12:58,348 --> 00:13:01,108 Speaker 5: their plan, their process always going along, was going to 292 00:13:01,148 --> 00:13:04,108 Speaker 5: be make sure that Drake May hits the field at 293 00:13:04,148 --> 00:13:04,708 Speaker 5: the right time. 294 00:13:04,748 --> 00:13:06,508 Speaker 2: They've got an offensive line. 295 00:13:06,348 --> 00:13:08,828 Speaker 5: That's had various stages of uppeaval and they're still trying 296 00:13:08,828 --> 00:13:11,508 Speaker 5: to get that settled. As IIan mentioned here, the wide receivers, 297 00:13:11,508 --> 00:13:13,668 Speaker 5: you don't necessarily have a true number one, maybe not 298 00:13:13,708 --> 00:13:15,748 Speaker 5: even a true number two type of a guy. So 299 00:13:15,788 --> 00:13:17,788 Speaker 5: what's the best environment to put the rookie out there? 300 00:13:17,948 --> 00:13:21,268 Speaker 5: With Jacoby Brissett, He's been there before. He can operate 301 00:13:21,308 --> 00:13:22,948 Speaker 5: the offense, he can get you into the right place. 302 00:13:23,148 --> 00:13:25,868 Speaker 5: Ackbard break May's time is coming. It might be coming 303 00:13:25,988 --> 00:13:28,988 Speaker 5: sooner than later, but to me, not a surprise at all. 304 00:13:28,988 --> 00:13:32,108 Speaker 5: The Jacoby prest, regardless how the preseason looked, starts out 305 00:13:32,148 --> 00:13:32,508 Speaker 5: of the gates. 306 00:13:32,588 --> 00:13:34,828 Speaker 6: Qple, Well, I think it's interesting what you're saying. You know, 307 00:13:35,188 --> 00:13:37,908 Speaker 6: maybe at some point, but if it's at some point 308 00:13:37,988 --> 00:13:41,348 Speaker 6: during the season, why not now is the question. And 309 00:13:41,428 --> 00:13:44,228 Speaker 6: there's been a lot of talk about this offensive line 310 00:13:44,228 --> 00:13:45,628 Speaker 6: and what this offensive. 311 00:13:45,148 --> 00:13:45,948 Speaker 4: Line is going to say. 312 00:13:45,948 --> 00:13:49,068 Speaker 6: Hey, Jacoby, in a nice way, they're saying, Jacoby Brissett 313 00:13:49,188 --> 00:13:50,028 Speaker 6: is a bridge. 314 00:13:50,028 --> 00:13:50,708 Speaker 4: That's an insult. 315 00:13:50,788 --> 00:13:53,948 Speaker 6: First off, is a bridge quarterback saying this is the 316 00:13:53,988 --> 00:13:56,788 Speaker 6: guy that we want, but that offensive line is bad. 317 00:13:56,908 --> 00:13:58,868 Speaker 6: So if the offensive line is bad, we just don't 318 00:13:58,908 --> 00:14:01,868 Speaker 6: want you to be the crash quarterback dummy, just get hit, 319 00:14:02,028 --> 00:14:05,068 Speaker 6: get sacked. I mean, if you look at it, that's right, 320 00:14:05,788 --> 00:14:06,708 Speaker 6: eighteen and thirty. 321 00:14:06,748 --> 00:14:08,588 Speaker 2: I mean paid qu a bitte to do those things. 322 00:14:08,588 --> 00:14:10,188 Speaker 6: I mean, if I'm a quarterback, I don't know how 323 00:14:10,228 --> 00:14:12,388 Speaker 6: I feel about that. But I mean he's been eighteen 324 00:14:12,388 --> 00:14:14,588 Speaker 6: and thirty in his career, Like, I mean, that's not 325 00:14:14,828 --> 00:14:17,268 Speaker 6: an impressive winning number. The last start he had was 326 00:14:17,308 --> 00:14:20,548 Speaker 6: in twenty twenty two, so I don't know I mean, 327 00:14:20,588 --> 00:14:23,068 Speaker 6: I just say, look, take the training wheels off, put 328 00:14:23,108 --> 00:14:25,228 Speaker 6: your guy in there. Like there's only two ways the 329 00:14:25,268 --> 00:14:27,468 Speaker 6: thing is going to go. Either he's gonna tank or 330 00:14:27,508 --> 00:14:30,308 Speaker 6: he's gonna rise. And I believe that Drake May would 331 00:14:30,308 --> 00:14:30,868 Speaker 6: would rise. 332 00:14:31,988 --> 00:14:34,748 Speaker 8: Listen, you guys are right right there. Drake May won 333 00:14:34,788 --> 00:14:38,028 Speaker 8: the job. The Pats offensive line lost it for him. 334 00:14:38,348 --> 00:14:40,348 Speaker 4: He played much better. He's the best player. 335 00:14:40,628 --> 00:14:43,228 Speaker 8: And there's closed door meetings in the Patriots organization are like, 336 00:14:43,388 --> 00:14:44,228 Speaker 8: you can't put this. 337 00:14:44,308 --> 00:14:45,868 Speaker 4: Guy out there. It's a joke. 338 00:14:46,028 --> 00:14:48,228 Speaker 8: It's not just you know, Tom's more eloquent than me. 339 00:14:48,308 --> 00:14:51,148 Speaker 8: Tom says the offensive line has gone through various stages 340 00:14:51,148 --> 00:14:54,788 Speaker 8: of upheaval, and he's rights. The offensive line committed ten 341 00:14:54,948 --> 00:14:57,988 Speaker 8: penalties in the last preseason game in the tune up, 342 00:14:58,068 --> 00:15:00,828 Speaker 8: so to speak. And that's not to mention almost got 343 00:15:00,908 --> 00:15:04,188 Speaker 8: Jacobi Brissett injured in the preseason game in five seconds. 344 00:15:04,868 --> 00:15:07,148 Speaker 4: This is you're right, ockbar o quit. 345 00:15:07,588 --> 00:15:09,868 Speaker 8: He's like, Jacoby, get out there, try to run the offense, 346 00:15:10,268 --> 00:15:12,268 Speaker 8: and man, try to stay up right. 347 00:15:12,308 --> 00:15:14,348 Speaker 4: It's it's like stand there in front of the bill. 348 00:15:14,388 --> 00:15:16,948 Speaker 8: It's like Johnny Knoxville, like, go ahead and hit me 349 00:15:17,028 --> 00:15:18,068 Speaker 8: with the bull for laughs. 350 00:15:18,148 --> 00:15:20,108 Speaker 4: That's what it's gonna be. It's that bad. 351 00:15:20,148 --> 00:15:22,268 Speaker 8: And this is like not to mention the Pats are 352 00:15:22,268 --> 00:15:25,388 Speaker 8: gonna be behind. Their best offensive player was traded. Their 353 00:15:25,388 --> 00:15:28,708 Speaker 8: other best defensive player is not with the team because 354 00:15:28,708 --> 00:15:29,268 Speaker 8: of health reasons. 355 00:15:29,268 --> 00:15:29,988 Speaker 4: They're gonna behind. 356 00:15:30,028 --> 00:15:32,668 Speaker 8: They're gonna throw like I don't want Drake May within 357 00:15:32,748 --> 00:15:35,028 Speaker 8: a square mile of the starting job of that's the 358 00:15:35,068 --> 00:15:38,068 Speaker 8: offensive line, because he's the future and if he can't 359 00:15:38,068 --> 00:15:39,428 Speaker 8: stand up right, they don't have one. 360 00:15:39,468 --> 00:15:41,628 Speaker 4: He won the job, the on line lost it. They're bad. 361 00:15:42,188 --> 00:15:44,188 Speaker 5: I think this is also an important note here, which 362 00:15:44,228 --> 00:15:47,108 Speaker 5: is think of while you learn from past mistakes. Right 363 00:15:47,108 --> 00:15:49,828 Speaker 5: twenty twenty one, they put mac Jones out there immediately. 364 00:15:49,868 --> 00:15:53,748 Speaker 5: Mac Jones actually played pretty well. But these are organizational 365 00:15:53,748 --> 00:15:56,268 Speaker 5: types of decisions. Who now is part of those conversations. 366 00:15:56,308 --> 00:15:59,308 Speaker 5: Elliott Wolf is the director of Scout. He's essentially the GM. 367 00:15:59,548 --> 00:16:01,948 Speaker 5: He came from green Bay. You got Alex van Pell, 368 00:16:02,068 --> 00:16:04,908 Speaker 5: who's the offensive coordinator, was in Green Bay. Alonzo Highsmith's 369 00:16:04,908 --> 00:16:07,548 Speaker 5: in the front office. From green Bay. Their organizational philosophy 370 00:16:07,588 --> 00:16:10,308 Speaker 5: has been get the guy in, give him time to learn. 371 00:16:10,508 --> 00:16:13,268 Speaker 5: That's the best way to bring him along. It is 372 00:16:13,308 --> 00:16:16,228 Speaker 5: a change from the Bill Belichick way of doing things. Here, 373 00:16:16,268 --> 00:16:18,988 Speaker 5: you're seeing that it's stamped in a variety of different ways. 374 00:16:19,108 --> 00:16:20,428 Speaker 5: Quarterback decisions certainly one of them. 375 00:16:20,468 --> 00:16:22,588 Speaker 3: That is good perspective to have. You know who else 376 00:16:22,628 --> 00:16:26,228 Speaker 3: has perspective in the NFL? Marcedes Lewis. Do you guys 377 00:16:26,228 --> 00:16:29,028 Speaker 3: know this guy comes back for season number nineteen? 378 00:16:29,428 --> 00:16:29,748 Speaker 2: Kyle? 379 00:16:29,868 --> 00:16:30,788 Speaker 3: Are you opening up the. 380 00:16:30,748 --> 00:16:31,948 Speaker 2: History book for us? 381 00:16:32,708 --> 00:16:33,788 Speaker 4: Yeah? This is incredible. 382 00:16:33,868 --> 00:16:37,108 Speaker 8: We have to take a moment to pay homage to 383 00:16:37,188 --> 00:16:38,828 Speaker 8: Marsides Lewis, what he's done. 384 00:16:38,988 --> 00:16:40,388 Speaker 4: Do you know what the league was like when he 385 00:16:40,428 --> 00:16:40,788 Speaker 4: answered it? 386 00:16:40,828 --> 00:16:42,108 Speaker 2: Do you know what the world was like? 387 00:16:42,508 --> 00:16:44,708 Speaker 8: I may have some surprise questions for you guys. We 388 00:16:44,788 --> 00:16:46,908 Speaker 8: have to reflect on Marceides. I got all kinds of 389 00:16:46,988 --> 00:16:50,748 Speaker 8: things to say about this. And it's very very late August. 390 00:16:51,068 --> 00:16:53,068 Speaker 8: If you haven't had your fantasy draft yet. 391 00:16:52,908 --> 00:16:56,708 Speaker 4: You're going too soon. We're going to momentarily with. 392 00:16:56,668 --> 00:16:59,548 Speaker 8: A little Good Morning Football twist. We are almost on 393 00:16:59,628 --> 00:17:02,508 Speaker 8: the clock.

We are on Good Morning Football on Thursday morning. 396 00:17:16,028 --> 00:17:19,508 Speaker 8: The NFL kickoff is exactly in one week, and we 397 00:17:19,548 --> 00:17:21,308 Speaker 8: want to take a minute, in fact a few minutes 398 00:17:21,348 --> 00:17:23,428 Speaker 8: to pay respect to someone who's been around for a 399 00:17:23,468 --> 00:17:26,468 Speaker 8: lot of NFL kickoffs. We want to pay huge respect 400 00:17:26,508 --> 00:17:32,548 Speaker 8: to Marcedes Alexis Lewis, tight end for the Chicago Bears 401 00:17:32,628 --> 00:17:37,228 Speaker 8: aka the Big Dogs. Marcedes Lewis is forty years old 402 00:17:37,988 --> 00:17:40,868 Speaker 8: and he just made the Bears final fifty three roster 403 00:17:40,988 --> 00:17:44,548 Speaker 8: to begin his nineteenth season in the NFL. 404 00:17:44,908 --> 00:17:47,588 Speaker 4: Let's give a little perspective to that. He is the 405 00:17:47,668 --> 00:17:49,148 Speaker 4: longest career for a tight. 406 00:17:49,028 --> 00:17:50,068 Speaker 2: End in NFL history. 407 00:17:50,108 --> 00:17:53,628 Speaker 8: According to NFL research, Jason Witten Tony Gonzalez both did 408 00:17:53,708 --> 00:17:57,188 Speaker 8: seventeen seasons. The Big Dog is up to nineteen seasons. 409 00:17:57,468 --> 00:17:59,868 Speaker 8: The only player in the league older than him is 410 00:17:59,908 --> 00:18:01,988 Speaker 8: the guy who just threw that ball, Aaron Rodgers. 411 00:18:01,988 --> 00:18:02,868 Speaker 4: By a matter of months. 412 00:18:02,908 --> 00:18:05,588 Speaker 8: He's the second oldest player in the entire NFL that 413 00:18:05,628 --> 00:18:07,268 Speaker 8: includes kickers and specialists. 414 00:18:07,308 --> 00:18:07,948 Speaker 4: And what's so. 415 00:18:07,868 --> 00:18:11,988 Speaker 8: Interesting about Marcedes' ability to hang in is that this. 416 00:18:11,828 --> 00:18:13,068 Speaker 4: Is what's incredible about it. 417 00:18:13,748 --> 00:18:18,148 Speaker 8: That is Calvin Johnson, Drell Reeves, Joe Thomas, and Patrick Willis. 418 00:18:19,108 --> 00:18:21,468 Speaker 4: All of those guys entered. 419 00:18:21,228 --> 00:18:24,428 Speaker 8: The league, retired and were inducted in the Hall of 420 00:18:24,468 --> 00:18:27,828 Speaker 8: Fame in the whole time that Marcedes Lewis was playing. 421 00:18:28,028 --> 00:18:31,268 Speaker 8: That happened in the entire span of Marcedes lewis career. 422 00:18:31,548 --> 00:18:35,148 Speaker 8: All four of those guys came in, played, retired, inducted 423 00:18:35,188 --> 00:18:35,948 Speaker 8: into the Hall of Fame. 424 00:18:35,988 --> 00:18:37,948 Speaker 4: Thank you with WTF stats. 425 00:18:38,068 --> 00:18:40,388 Speaker 8: The other thing it's amazing is that the last and 426 00:18:40,508 --> 00:18:43,868 Speaker 8: only season that Marceides Lewis even had fifty catches fifty 427 00:18:43,868 --> 00:18:48,588 Speaker 8: receptions was fourteen years ago. His final year with the Packers, 428 00:18:48,708 --> 00:18:52,068 Speaker 8: he had six. Last year with the Bears, he had 429 00:18:52,268 --> 00:18:54,428 Speaker 8: four on five targets. 430 00:18:54,468 --> 00:18:56,068 Speaker 4: That's it. Four catches all year. 431 00:18:56,228 --> 00:18:57,988 Speaker 8: But what he brings to the locker room and to 432 00:18:58,028 --> 00:18:59,828 Speaker 8: the hut own he's a great blocker, and he's big 433 00:18:59,868 --> 00:19:02,028 Speaker 8: and it occasionally he'll catch your red zone touchdown. 434 00:19:02,188 --> 00:19:03,988 Speaker 4: They bring him back, they want him back. 435 00:19:04,028 --> 00:19:06,348 Speaker 8: On the final fifty three I mentioned the Hall of 436 00:19:06,388 --> 00:19:08,708 Speaker 8: Fame careers, it's an incredible thing. We also looked into 437 00:19:08,988 --> 00:19:12,108 Speaker 8: as a tribute to his longevity. When Marcedes entered the 438 00:19:12,188 --> 00:19:16,788 Speaker 8: league out of UCLA via poll, who is the oldest 439 00:19:16,788 --> 00:19:18,268 Speaker 8: teammate he had in the locker room? 440 00:19:18,308 --> 00:19:19,748 Speaker 4: Who is the oldest guy he played with? 441 00:19:19,948 --> 00:19:23,748 Speaker 8: Bring it up his rookie year, he played with this dude, 442 00:19:24,108 --> 00:19:26,108 Speaker 8: Kyle Brady, a fellow tight end. 443 00:19:26,508 --> 00:19:27,548 Speaker 4: So Kyle Brady has. 444 00:19:27,468 --> 00:19:31,828 Speaker 8: Been retired for seventeen years and Marcedes played with him. 445 00:19:32,188 --> 00:19:35,548 Speaker 8: Kyle Brady was born in nineteen seventy two, that's close. 446 00:19:35,308 --> 00:19:37,708 Speaker 4: To the sixties, and Marcedes played with him. 447 00:19:37,828 --> 00:19:40,668 Speaker 8: This is the ninety five draft when this guy came 448 00:19:40,708 --> 00:19:43,348 Speaker 8: into the league and Marcedes played with him, and he's 449 00:19:43,348 --> 00:19:47,708 Speaker 8: still playing. We're at the point where Marcedes Lewis lasts 450 00:19:47,748 --> 00:19:51,148 Speaker 8: longer than a Mercedes Benz, even a top quality when 451 00:19:51,188 --> 00:19:54,708 Speaker 8: it doesn't matter. We're almost twenty years in and just 452 00:19:54,788 --> 00:19:56,668 Speaker 8: till we want to give it a little GMF be twist. 453 00:19:57,148 --> 00:19:59,628 Speaker 8: I want to involve you guys and showing our respect 454 00:19:59,708 --> 00:20:02,028 Speaker 8: for the big dog. And I have some kind of 455 00:20:02,068 --> 00:20:04,988 Speaker 8: which happened. First questions for you going to start off, 456 00:20:05,028 --> 00:20:07,028 Speaker 8: will go around the table. You can take a guess, 457 00:20:07,028 --> 00:20:10,308 Speaker 8: all right, okay, what is older? 458 00:20:11,068 --> 00:20:12,028 Speaker 4: Older? Right now? 459 00:20:12,348 --> 00:20:19,748 Speaker 8: Marcedes Lewis NFL career or the Nintendo Wii system Wii, 460 00:20:19,788 --> 00:20:21,308 Speaker 8: which is older the Nintendo. 461 00:20:21,388 --> 00:20:23,828 Speaker 4: We are Mercedes Lewis, NFL career. What do you think? 462 00:20:23,828 --> 00:20:24,508 Speaker 4: Go round quickly. 463 00:20:25,028 --> 00:20:26,188 Speaker 6: I'm going to start this one. 464 00:20:26,228 --> 00:20:29,108 Speaker 4: I'm going to go the Wei is the Nintendo w 465 00:20:29,308 --> 00:20:29,748 Speaker 4: is older. 466 00:20:30,108 --> 00:20:32,548 Speaker 5: I think it's Marcedes. I didn't get a Wii until 467 00:20:32,548 --> 00:20:33,788 Speaker 5: like twenty ten ish. 468 00:20:33,988 --> 00:20:36,108 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to go Marcedes as well, but I 469 00:20:36,148 --> 00:20:36,988 Speaker 3: think it's pretty close. 470 00:20:38,588 --> 00:20:43,068 Speaker 8: The WE has been around forever, and Marcedes career is longer. 471 00:20:43,188 --> 00:20:45,468 Speaker 4: Sorry, Nintendo. WE Marcedes is longer. 472 00:20:45,468 --> 00:20:49,508 Speaker 8: It came out halfway through Marcedes rookie year. It needed 473 00:20:49,548 --> 00:20:52,588 Speaker 8: a lot of batteries, there were connectivity issues. It was 474 00:20:52,628 --> 00:20:54,228 Speaker 8: fun to have it in your hand and play golf 475 00:20:54,268 --> 00:20:56,508 Speaker 8: and bowling. But Marcedes lewis career is older. 476 00:20:56,588 --> 00:21:00,108 Speaker 4: Number two. What happened first? 477 00:21:00,428 --> 00:21:04,388 Speaker 8: Vince Young beat USC in the Rose Bowl? Or marseies 478 00:21:04,388 --> 00:21:06,868 Speaker 8: Sades Lewis entered the National Football League? 479 00:21:06,868 --> 00:21:07,828 Speaker 4: Which happened first? 480 00:21:09,068 --> 00:21:14,028 Speaker 6: That would be the USC Texas game or Vince Young. 481 00:21:14,268 --> 00:21:16,748 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Marcedes came into the league first. 482 00:21:16,788 --> 00:21:18,988 Speaker 5: I think it's Vince Young. I want to say he 483 00:21:19,068 --> 00:21:21,948 Speaker 5: was the five Rookie of the Year, Kyle. 484 00:21:23,988 --> 00:21:27,148 Speaker 8: Vince Young beat USC first. You are correct, of course, 485 00:21:27,228 --> 00:21:31,548 Speaker 8: this was a massive deal. Unfortunately, when this happened, Marcedes 486 00:21:31,548 --> 00:21:35,228 Speaker 8: and UCLA had just beaten the snot out of Northwestern. 487 00:21:34,548 --> 00:21:35,628 Speaker 4: In the Sun Bowl. 488 00:21:35,908 --> 00:21:39,108 Speaker 8: He would be drafted about four months later, so Vince 489 00:21:39,148 --> 00:21:42,268 Speaker 8: Young beat USC and UCLA in a sense in one 490 00:21:42,308 --> 00:21:44,908 Speaker 8: fell swoop four months before, but the last one. Here's 491 00:21:44,948 --> 00:21:49,028 Speaker 8: the money question. This is final Marcedes jeopardy. What is older? 492 00:21:49,148 --> 00:21:50,348 Speaker 4: My friends? 493 00:21:50,348 --> 00:21:56,388 Speaker 8: Marcedes lewis NFL career or Taylor Swift's first studio album? 494 00:21:56,908 --> 00:21:58,988 Speaker 4: Which is older? 495 00:21:59,068 --> 00:22:00,868 Speaker 5: My kids might be right to miss at home and 496 00:22:00,908 --> 00:22:02,628 Speaker 5: this is going to be problematic. 497 00:22:02,228 --> 00:22:05,068 Speaker 3: I guess, so I want to make sure we understand 498 00:22:05,068 --> 00:22:08,508 Speaker 3: the question correctly. Are you saying that Taylor Swift's first 499 00:22:08,548 --> 00:22:12,068 Speaker 3: studio album came out before Marcedes lose under the league? 500 00:22:12,068 --> 00:22:13,188 Speaker 3: Is that how it's being freezed? 501 00:22:14,548 --> 00:22:15,308 Speaker 4: Which is older? 502 00:22:15,388 --> 00:22:18,988 Speaker 10: The album or Marcedes career? We don't need to split hand. 503 00:22:20,708 --> 00:22:24,068 Speaker 10: We go Mercedes. That's a clean sweep. We want our money, 504 00:22:24,108 --> 00:22:25,668 Speaker 10: give it to us. 505 00:22:25,708 --> 00:22:30,108 Speaker 8: Marcedes Lewis's NFL career is older than Taylor Swift's first album. 506 00:22:30,108 --> 00:22:32,348 Speaker 4: There she is with a surfboard. Here's the deal.
