John Middlecoff Three and Out Podcast. 14 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: If I sound a little different, it's because I got 15 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: a head cold. The cold has come out of retirement. 16 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: It's like Eric Wettle went away from a couple of 17 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: years and now it's back, and it got me, and 18 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: it got me good.

And um, I also have to do a 27 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: podcast because ultimately I'm a podcaster. That's how we pay 28 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: the bills here. And so we're gonna do a podcast 29 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 1: today three and out.

We've been doing that the 34 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. It's had success, and I think 35 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: we will just separate this mail bag on Friday and 36 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: we'll add it to the weekend. A lot of you guys, 37 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: because I asked I didn't have anything to watch, you 38 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: guys have inundated my my d ms with things to watch. 39 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: I don't even know. I feel like I have seven 40 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: million things to watch now. A lot of you guys 41 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: played the hits, you know, Ozarks and yellow Stones, Like guys, 42 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: I don't live under rock I've watched all those shows. 43 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: I I binge a lot of shows, so any show 44 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 1: that is culturally relevant. Hell, I watched Game of Thrones 45 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: and I'm not even into that type crap, but if 46 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: everyone's watching it, I gotta check it out. I meanly 47 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: just watch for the violence and the nudity, uh, the 48 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: storylines and stuff. I I couldn't. I couldn't fake pretending 49 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: like all these other people that loved it, and I 50 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: know some of you did, but it didn't do it 51 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: for me. But I did enjoy the characters and the 52 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: and again the sex and the violence. But all the 53 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: main shows I've watched. I actually just watched Inventing Anna. 54 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: Uh it's it's a trippy show on Netflix, you know, 55 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: and they claim it's a true story. I I don't, 56 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: you know, it feels like I would imagine the television 57 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: Netflix version made it a pretty big stretch. Jack Reacher 58 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: on Amazon Prime. I you know, I love those type 59 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: just that type stuff. I thought that one was a 60 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: little cheesy. Uh So I watched the carl Icon documentary 61 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: on HBO pretty good. Highly recommend that, highly recommend that. 62 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: Carl Icon Crazy investor kind of Gordon Gecko of Wall Street. Uh, 63 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: you know, googling it and doing some research while I 64 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: was watching it, because I was like, oh, this has 65 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: a lot of parallels. I think they made Wall Street 66 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: kind of after Carl Icon and a couple other guys, 67 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: but he was definitely a main fixture in that and 68 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: uh and yeah, we probably should talk some football. So 69 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: again at John Middlecoff's the Instagram. Also the golf Pod 70 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: you guys have been listening to had a lot going on. 71 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: Greg Norman just released a statement threatening the PGA tour. 72 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: Greg Norman and Phil Nicholson, two guys that are super 73 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: rich are just losing their mind. It's like, you guys 74 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: need to get your ship together. It's not that big 75 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: of a deal. Relax, guys. Maybe the Siddies are coming 76 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: after him. But go lopod at Golpod is the Instagram. Uh, 77 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: so check that out as well. Kay, I wanted to 78 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: start with the breaking news because I think this is 79 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: pretty symbolic of where we're at. I'll never forget and 80 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: I didn't really watch the show as a kid, even 81 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: though it was, you know, probably the biggest show on 82 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: TV at the time. But I vividly remember when they 83 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: came back for the last season, the cast of Friends 84 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: got a million dollars in episode one million dollars in episode, 85 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: and that was a really really big deal. And then obviously, 86 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: over the years, television stars made a ton of money. 87 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: I was reading an article pretty recently that James Gandelfini 88 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: had some knockdown dragouts over his compensation. Some of the 89 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: big stars over the years have made a lot of 90 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: money on TV. We know now with Netflix and Amazon, like, 91 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: you get paid a ton of cash when you do 92 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: shows that are really big and draw a huge audience. 93 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: Makes sense if you're the main character, like you get compensated. 94 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: And this breaking news on I guess it would have 95 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: been Wednesday of this week, and it's it's not official 96 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: as of recording this, but it sure feels like we're 97 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: headed that way. Is that ESPN and Monday Night Football 98 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: is going to sign Troy Aikman for seventeen and a 99 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: half million dollars a year, and I think that's symbolic 100 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: of where the NFL's at to call NFL games. When 101 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: you're a big star like Tony Romo or Troy Aikman, 102 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: the going rate is sixteen to seventeen million dollars a year. 103 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: So basically, I guess those guys do playoffs. Uh, you know, 104 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: it works out to eight thousand dollars a game. Pretty 105 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: pretty good gig if you get it right. Not not 106 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: a bad deal at all. And I think Troy Aikman, 107 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: like you just can't turn down that type money. Like 108 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: what who says no to seventeen and a half a 109 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: million dollars? He got a five year deal. Again, not 110 00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: official yet, but that's basically almost ninety million dollars ours. 111 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: Troy Haman made like fifty five million dollars in his 112 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: playing career now. Obviously playing in the nineties is much 113 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: different now, and fifty five million dollars in the nineties, 114 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: especially playing in Texas, you know it was was a 115 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: shipload of money. But paying someone seventeen and a half 116 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: million dollars to call games like it also makes sense. 117 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: You need a big star on Monday Night football. I 118 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: know Lewis, I worked with Lewis, I worked for Lewis basically. 119 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: But here's the problem with the Monday night booth and 120 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: the last couple of been this way three way boosts 121 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: that they do not work, especially not from major games. 122 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: I need a two man booth. That's the way it works. 123 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: Give me a play by the guy and give me 124 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: an analyst. Give me all Michaels and give me John Madden, 125 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: give me give me pass summer Roll and give me 126 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: John Madden. Give me all Michaels and give me Chris Collinsworth, 127 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: give me Tarrico and give me John Gruden. I can't 128 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: have three guys. We're not we're not. We're not hosting 129 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: a podcast here. We're calling three hours of a prime 130 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: time game. And that just was not working. It was 131 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: not working. And here's the other thing. We've been saying 132 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: it now for five years. They've desperately wanted a big star. 133 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: And if you have a Monday night crew, you would 134 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: not just randomly put Peyton and Eli on your sister 135 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: channel to take away from the rating. That was pretty telling. 136 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: And let's face it, you want to know why they 137 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: did that, because they wanted one of those two guys 138 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 1: to have the job. But you know what, those two 139 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: guys don't have to do because unlike Troy, who made 140 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: fifty five million dollars now, Troy has made a ton 141 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: of money the last twenty years, and Troy clearly likes 142 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: doing this, and this is you know, been a huge 143 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: part of his life. The Mannings on the field made 144 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,559 Speaker 1: a combine like five fifty million dollars off the field. 145 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: Who knows, I mean, Peyton was one of the great 146 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: spokesman's for brands over his playing career. ELI played in 147 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: New York City. Those guys are worth hundreds of millions 148 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: the moment they retire like that, you look in the bank, 149 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of dollars. Now, like most people, you 150 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: don't just leave hundreds of million dollars in the bank. 151 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: They invested. And what has Peyton does? You know from people? 152 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: Some people that I've known, I've heard Peyton has made 153 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: some incredible investments. Obviously some of the ones we know 154 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: about publicly, but ones that you don't know about publicly, 155 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: elite investor. Why because think who he's running with. Peyton 156 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: Manning plays golf at Augusta, like with the most important 157 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: business men in America. Who do you think ELI drafts 158 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: off of He's in that crew. So money, it's not 159 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 1: the same when Troy retired, not that he needed money, 160 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: but he immediately just went back to work like Peyton 161 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,200 Speaker 1: and Eli did not have to do this. And ESPN begged, 162 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: which made sense because if you've got Peyton Eli as 163 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,679 Speaker 1: one of your announcers, I mean, Peyton would have been 164 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: the biggest star in the history of television, at least 165 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: on signing. Now, whether he would have been elite, I 166 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:53,959 Speaker 1: think it's fair to say, you probably would have been. 167 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 1: Troy's good. You know, is Troy John Madden? No? Is Troy? 168 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: You know? I would even say John Gruden kind of 169 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 1: crazy personality, of course not. But Troy is really solid. 170 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: And here's the other thing, he's really famous. One key 171 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: I think with any leak is to keep some of 172 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: your star players surrounding your league, having them involved with 173 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: your leak, having them call games. I mean sometimes I 174 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: turn on the television on Sunday and we complain about 175 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: these broadcasts. It's like, oh my god, who's calling this game? 176 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: This is terrible And I'm not gonna try to throw 177 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: anyone under the bus, but they're you know, the Barber's. 178 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: There's some terrible former players to do some of these games. Now, 179 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: just because you were a famous player. It was a 180 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: little before my time, or at least I don't remember 181 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: watching him. Joe Montana did games, Bill Walshtood games, and 182 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: they weren't good. Just because you're famous doesn't mean you're 183 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 1: gonna be good. But there are some famous guys and 184 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: I said this about Drew Brees and like this ain't 185 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 1: gonna be Drew Brees Lane. Like part of talking for 186 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: a living, you gotta be able to be critical because 187 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: you know who you're talking to, the fan, the consumer, 188 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 1: the guy paying for everything. The most valuable thing the 189 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 1: NFL has right now is our attention, because the most 190 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: valuable thing any of us have in life is time. 191 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 1: Who were willing to give time to? Can someone buy 192 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: your time? Can they offer you a hunder grand to 193 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 1: go to work for him? That's that's pretty valuable. You 194 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: spend a lot of time at work right everything besides 195 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: maybe your wife, someone is doing something for your time 196 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: who you pick and choose to spend time with. And 197 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: one thing is clear when it comes to television. We 198 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 1: spend a lot of freaking time with the National Football League. 199 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: And I listen Monday night football. They had to get 200 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: a big fish. They couldn't keep going like they were 201 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: going three man booth. It's like, whose idea is that 202 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: some of these people, these executives, why the volumes having success? 203 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: Colin is the guy making these decisions. He's been in 204 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: it for twenty thirty years. He's run a couple of 205 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: ideas off me, and I gave him a couple of 206 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 1: ideas like I we I do this. I'm in this deep, 207 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: I'm in the mud here. Some of these executives have 208 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: never spoke a word for their living or you know, 209 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: for a living in their life. Now, some of them 210 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 1: are really good, right, whoever once gave John Madden the job? 211 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: Whoever once gave you know, uh, John Gruden the job. 212 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: But let's face it, ESPN had a circle jerk over 213 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: Rex Ryan. He was gonna be awesome. Rex Ryan fucking sucks. 214 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: Rex Ryan is terrible. Now. I don't watch much ESPN 215 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: at all beside games, but and I tried to avoid 216 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: pregame shows at all costs, but whenever I turned that on, 217 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 1: I go this is He's the worst guy on that crew. 218 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: And I bet when they signed him, everyone of ESPN 219 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: was doing cartwheels like we got Rex Ryan. He's been terrible. 220 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: He's got awful So and listen, I would hang out 221 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: with the Rex, but as a TV personality, and he 222 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: was a really good defensive coach. He's not good on 223 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: television he's just not and he'll be critical, of course 224 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: he will. I mean, he's a guy been talking ship 225 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,319 Speaker 1: his whole life. That's the least of his worries. But 226 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 1: it's just he doesn't bring me. He doesn't do anything 227 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: for me. And here's the other thing. I've been saying 228 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 1: this for a while about Sean McVeigh. Having leverage get 229 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: you more money every single time. And I've been in 230 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: positions where I had no leverage and I got taken 231 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: to the cleaners in the sense of when I worked 232 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: for the Eagles and I got uh the West Coast 233 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 1: job after being a pro scout, I got a five 234 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: thousand dollar bonus. If I would have had three teams 235 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: coming at me, maybe I would have got a bonus. 236 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: We see it all the time in the NFL. When 237 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: these people interview in other places and then they stay, 238 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: they get huge raises. I I didn't have that. I 239 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: was in my twenties, I didn't know anybody, and I 240 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: was happy to make fifty grand or whatever. But when 241 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: I worked in radio, I started gaining some leverage and 242 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: we started having success. You know, as a scout, I 243 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: success like only the GM and Andy knew, like what 244 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: my reports were Once you get in radio, you started 245 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: hitting some rating bonuses, You're like, Okay, they want to 246 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: keep me, it's gonna cost a little bit more. And 247 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: obviously in podcasts we've had success to doing this. I've 248 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: had quote unquote leverage on my side. And again, like 249 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: part of doing business with people, this is a unique 250 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: business that I've involved in. You know, yeah, I viewed 251 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: more as a partnership. So it's it's less about like 252 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: when you work for corporations, you have to have leverage. 253 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: And ultimately I've said this for about Sean McVeigh. He 254 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 1: is the poster guy. He is the face of the franchise, 255 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: not Aaron Donald, not Matt Stafford, not Cooper cup. When 256 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: you think the Los Angeles Rams, you think Sean McVeigh, 257 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: and you think Sophi Stadium. Now, and obviously he just 258 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl and his value he's been a 259 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: two Super Bowls in four years and he's won one. 260 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: Now is he a twenty million dollar coach? He actually 261 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: makes some mistakes in games. He's not always the most 262 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: aggressive on fourth and short and in the NFC Championship game, 263 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: he didn't have any time outs in the fourth quarter. 264 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: That if Jimmy Garoppolo wasn't playing like crap then four 265 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: and I should have won the game. But right now, 266 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: the going rate for guys like Sean McVeigh, and with 267 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: Sean mcveahby great at TV. I don't know, he's never 268 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: done it before, but if I had to bet on him, 269 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: I bet I'd take Sean mcveavor, Drew Brees, I take 270 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: Sean Mcveighvor Rex Ryan. I take Sean mcveighvor Sean Payton. 271 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: But the going right for Sean McVeigh makes like ten 272 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: eleven million dollars right now for the Rams, it's sixteen 273 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: seventeen million dollars. We've just seen the market gets set 274 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: by Tony Romo and Troy Higman. So we know the 275 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: guy that makes the most in the NFL is Bill Belichick, 276 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 1: and unlike I got an argument today on social media, 277 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: like you know these guys, you don't know how much. 278 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: These are not public companies, and unlike players, when it 279 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: comes out like free agencies in a couple of weeks, 280 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: when a guy gets paid, we're gonna know right away, 281 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: right and the money's you know, without guaranteed money, it's 282 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: hard to ever know when a guy immediately gets paid 283 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: how much he's truly making, but the agent always wants 284 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: that out there. Why because the agent wants more clients. 285 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: We're in football. Coaches get very and I don't blame him. 286 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: Insecure is probably the wrong word, but they're just they're 287 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: not trying to put their business out there. He doesn't 288 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: behoove them. It's that this isn't college sports. To let 289 00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: you know. Andy Reid doesn't want everyone to know he 290 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: makes sixty million dollars a year. Sean Payton and Pete 291 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: Carroll aren't banging their chest. You're like, yeah, I just 292 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: sign an eighty million dollar contract right there. It's just 293 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: it's it's very These are not public companies. They don't 294 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: have to disclose this information. But if I'm Sean McVeagh, 295 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: go I want twenty million dollars a year now. Is 296 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: he a twenty million dollar coach? Probably not? Is he 297 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: fourteen or fifty million? Yeah? I mean that's if TV 298 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: didn't exist. He's the face of the franchise for a 299 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: team that just won the Super Bowl, and he's thirty 300 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: six years old, and he's an awesome freaking coach. Some flaws, yeah, 301 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: but most coaches have loss besides, like Bill Belichick, they 302 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: all do right, And I think he's gonna get it. 303 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get it. And I you know, 304 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: this is the type money that, like if stand offered 305 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: him like thirteen million dollars, It's like, hey, Stan, I 306 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: go work for sixteen million dollars in a much easier job. 307 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: So part of the reason this got floated out there 308 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: over the last month is because it's a leverage tool. 309 00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: Leverages on Sean mcvass hide. He's gonna make a load 310 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: of money and one day he's gonna go do TV 311 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: and make a boatload more. And it shows you the 312 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: power of the league right now. You think that you 313 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,360 Speaker 1: think the t n T s paying stand Van Gundi, 314 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: I mean a stand band Gundy is terrible. But to me, 315 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: it's like he's probably making half a million bucks. Do 316 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: you think anyone in baseball is making much of money 317 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: called games? Come on? I mean, geez, what are we 318 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: talking about here?

Aaron Rodgerson. I watched the Pat 353 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: McAfee thing, and listen, he's me and him don't have 354 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: much in common, and listen. There are things like there's 355 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: Tony Robe, Tony Robbins manifest stuff that I I think about. 356 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: I don't actively like try to put it in my 357 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: life all the time. I've never gone on more than 358 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: like a couple of day. Cleans would be strong, but 359 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 1: just a fast and really I can fast for like 360 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: a day and then I get too hungry. Uh what 361 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: that thing that he did that thirteen day cleans. I 362 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: honestly give him respect for doing that, because I I 363 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,119 Speaker 1: wouldn't make it past like day two. And I think 364 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 1: most people listening, no matter what you think of it, 365 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: could not even begin to remotely get close to accomplishing that. Now, 366 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 1: I would say most of us would have no desire 367 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: to do that. But like, he's a different cat. He's 368 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 1: a little out there. But you know what, some of 369 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: the greats at whatever their individual profession are, are a 370 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: little weird. Hell, even Tom Brady, remember when everyone was 371 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: given him ship for pliability and eating avocado ice cream 372 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: and tomatoes and drinking drinking water would help you not 373 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: get sumbered. He said all those things. He doesn't he 374 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,959 Speaker 1: believes those things. I have the TV twelve book in 375 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: my living room. When you open it up, that's what 376 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: he talks about. Elon Musk, who I love, is pretty 377 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: out there. He's a different cat. We've all followed Kanye. 378 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: You watched the Kanye doc. I haven't yet, but I 379 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: actually might do that in the next couple of days. 380 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 1: Kanye is out there, like some people that are really 381 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: talented when you're not that talented and stuff, and you're 382 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: out there, we just think you're a whatchup. Like ultimately 383 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,120 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers a forty million dollar four time m v P. Ultimately, 384 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: Kanye sling a lot albums. He just two an album 385 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 1: he sold like, uh, what was it like two thousand 386 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 1: or whatever? I mean, made millions of dollars on his 387 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: album Elon Musk. I mean it's crazy, but so what 388 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes I'm not normal? How many people listening 389 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 1: do you think? Are you normal? What the hell is normal? 390 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: But the thing when you're a quarterback, the only thing 391 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: that matters, regardless of whether you do thirteen day cleanses, 392 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: whether you're like John Elway and you slam Corona lights, 393 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: you know, whether you're Brett Farve and you're just kind 394 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: of a screw around hick from Mississippi. Do you get 395 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 1: along with your teammates? Do the guys in the locker 396 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: room like you? That is really what matters and say 397 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: what you want? And I give Roger's credit on this, 398 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: the guys in that locker room like him? Now, is 399 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: he a drama queen? Of course he is. Like him 400 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: and Russell Wilson have become very drama centric and whether 401 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: that's ego, whether that's narcissism, because my one pushback and 402 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: I'm not big into Buddhism, but like, hey, Aaron, and 403 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 1: I know he's big into the bootists. Do the Buddhists 404 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: watch you posting all this on social media? Or Buddhists 405 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: big into like public stuff on social media? Because I 406 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 1: didn't think they were. But listen, I mean, you can 407 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: make up. We're we all are hypocrites in some way, 408 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: some form or fashion. I actually think the Green Bay 409 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 1: Packers have a pretty good chance to retain Aaron Rodgers 410 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: and I watched Brian Gudikins. I've been sick, so I 411 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: haven't really been able to sleep. I mean, the last 412 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: couple of nights, I've woken up at midnight and laid 413 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: there until about four am, watched TV, watched YouTube's. I mean, 414 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: it's it's been a weird couple of days for me. 415 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: And last night, about two thirty in the morning, I'm 416 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: just sitting there, wide awake, and I watched Brian Gudikins. 417 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: I didn't watch the whole thing just because I got it. 418 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: I don't care about everything is going on with the 419 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,199 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers, but I was skipping around, and I, 420 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: you know, if we're Colin was right where Colin was wrong. 421 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: I said when this happened over last summer, it was 422 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 1: gonna be very very difficult for Brian Goodkins because they 423 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: don't teach you in Scout school how to manage people 424 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 1: that you either have that or you don't. They don't 425 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: teach you how to deal with people that are not 426 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 1: like you. And listen, I like people not being like me. 427 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: I like people to be different. You know. The social 428 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 1: media wants everyone to be the same. It's it's it's 429 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: why I hate the media. They're all, especially the sports media, 430 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,439 Speaker 1: not if I present of them, all say do and 431 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: think the same way. To me, that's fucking boring. When 432 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 1: you get predictable, I'm out. It's like I want predictability, 433 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: maybe with like my income streams, but like with the 434 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: people I associate with, Like I like some curveballs, I 435 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: like things to keep me on my toes. I don't 436 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 1: want to get I get bored fast, and so dealing 437 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: with unprick unpredictability can be very very difficult. And I 438 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: didn't think just base. I don't know the guy, but 439 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna be very difficult for Goodikins 440 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 1: to handle the situation, just like it would be for 441 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: any young GM to handle the situation. But he deserves 442 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,199 Speaker 1: a standing applause if you're a Green Bay Packer fan. One. 443 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: He gets a lot of credit for hiring the coach 444 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: who Aaron Rodgers clearly loves. If Aaron Rodgers does stay 445 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: and doesn't ask for a trade, a big reason he'd 446 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: be doing that is because of Matt Lafleur and the 447 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: other thing. Roger said this on McAfee show. He said 448 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 1: this on his m v P speech, and Gudakins was like, yeah, 449 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: we've done a lot to quote unquote improve our relationship. 450 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: We've spent a lot of times talking because let's face it, relationships, 451 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,239 Speaker 1: whether they're personal or their professional, they you know, if 452 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: you care about that relationship, it takes some work. And 453 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: sometimes we all can live in our own little bubble 454 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: and not realize the way other people are thinking. And 455 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: Gudakins was forced into it. But once he was forced 456 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: into it, some people might have screwed that up. And 457 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: not only did he not screw it up, he put 458 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: Aaron in a position, the team in a position, with 459 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: everything he did around him and Aaron's very happy with 460 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: him right now, so it's gonna come down to money. 461 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 1: Uh and maybe just the drama of Aaron likes this. 462 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: But I I give a lot of credit to Gudakins 463 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: for figuring this situation aation out and I think everyone's 464 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: you know, Aaron is easy to make fun of when 465 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: he started talking about thirteen day cleanse and puking and 466 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: you know, eating dinner with the Buddhists. You know why 467 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: because most people don't do that and uh, it's listen, 468 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 1: that's not my cup of tea. You won't find me. 469 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: And I would imagine many people listening to this eating 470 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: with Buddhists. But Aeron's into that. You know, some people 471 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: are just into different things. And honestly, that makes you know, 472 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: this country kind of cool. Not everyone has to think 473 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: the same. Another big guy that's just you know, just 474 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: a little bit of a drama queen. I know he 475 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: changed his Instagram and uh put a picture of him 476 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 1: I think when he was in high school. He's from 477 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: the Virginia areas Russell Wilson and unlike Aaron Rodgers, that 478 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 1: kind of laid it on the table, was like, we 479 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,399 Speaker 1: gotta figure it out. This year or I'm gone, I'm 480 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: gonna demand a trade. I'm gonna go, like we all 481 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: kind of know where Aaron's going. He's either gonna say 482 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: I'm coming back to Green Bay or you guys have 483 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: to trade me. And even when you watch gooda can 484 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 1: stock like, if he demands a trade, they're gonna rum. 485 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: They would be kind of screwed because Jordan's loves not 486 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: that good. They'd have to get another quarterback. But that 487 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: situation they're in, this other guy is obsessed. Like, here's 488 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,960 Speaker 1: the one thing I give Aaron Rodgers at this point 489 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: in time, he's not really obsessed with his image. I mean, 490 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,439 Speaker 1: he's talking about some pretty outrageous things. And I'm not 491 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 1: talking about the the COVID stuff. Honestly, it didn't bother 492 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 1: me at all like it did the media. They're like, 493 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: oh my god, It's like yeah whatever. But I'm more 494 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: talking about the stuff that he just told McAfee. Even 495 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: Pat McAfee's face when he told him about eating dinner 496 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: with the Buddhists and the and the cleanse. I mean, 497 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 1: it was just he gave a reaction like we all 498 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: would have. It was it was hard to comprehend, but 499 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson is obsessed with being liked. All he cares 500 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: about is everyone is personal image. Honestly, I think Kindo 501 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: Colin loves him. Fraud's the wrong word. I just think 502 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: he's like a caricature, Like I don't even know if 503 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: he's a real human. I often think this about politicians, 504 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: like are they even real humans? When the cam goes 505 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: off and they just go home and they're sitting there 506 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 1: with their wife or like their brother today, Oh god, 507 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 1: I'm fooling these fucking idiots. These guys don't have any 508 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: clue coming or do they stay in character? Because if 509 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: they stay in character, that's insane, Like you just are 510 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: you guys different species in us? Like does Russell talk 511 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 1: like that? But if Russell wants to get traded and 512 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,400 Speaker 1: it's kind of out there, he's gonna have to demand 513 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: a trade because under no circumstances are John Schneider and 514 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll going to just randomly trade Russell Wilson. That 515 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 1: is not gonna happen. John Schneider is not going to 516 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 1: trade the best draft pick he's ever made, the best 517 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,640 Speaker 1: player in the history of the franchise, just just because 518 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: he can get some picks. Back picks don't mean anything 519 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: when you trade your starting quarterback who's a Pro Bowl 520 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: level guy. Now, if Russell has the stones, if he 521 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: has the balls to not worry about the massaging is 522 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 1: social media image. If he tweeted out or just you know, 523 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: put out a statement through Seattle like I want to 524 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: get traded. I went through schefter, went through rap sheet. 525 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson has told the Seahawks he's demanding a trade, 526 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: then yeah, he could put their feet to the fire. 527 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: He can make things uncomfortable. But is he going to 528 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 1: do that because last year he wanted to do it, 529 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: but he didn't have the stones to do it. He 530 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: kind of dipped his foot into the uh, into the 531 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: shallow and he's like, well, you know, I don't really 532 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,959 Speaker 1: want to go, But if they were going to get 533 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: rid of me, they could trade me to these four places. 534 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 1: Like who talks like that, Like just say you want 535 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: to trade or say you want to stay. And he 536 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 1: played this political standpoint all season long on all these topics, 537 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna be the same thing. It's 538 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:40,199 Speaker 1: just gonna be kind of cloudy. It's not gonna be 539 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: black and white. It's gonna be in this gray area. 540 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, I kind of want to stay, but 541 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: I'll see what they do then maybe I'll push it 542 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: and that at least say this. For Aaron Rodgers at least, 543 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: he's been pretty direct. Last year, He's like, I want 544 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: more input. Boom got more input this year. It's like, 545 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you if I'm gonna stay or go. 546 00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: Russell's you know, as we used to say in the 547 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 1: radio bill, just sitting on the fence, pick a side. 548 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: You're three years old. If you want to stay, they'll 549 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: goal in on you. If you want to force your 550 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: way out, go force your way out because you can 551 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: ultimately these n these NFL quarterbacks kind of like NBA players. 552 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: If Russell Wilson told John Snyder and Pete Carroll I'm 553 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: and he never would because his image, I'm never gonna 554 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: play another down for this franchise. I'm never gonna play 555 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: another down, they would trade him because think of what 556 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: they get. They get like Jalen Hurts and four ones 557 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: and just kind of reset their franchise. Now, they don't 558 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: want to do that. I don't blame them. If I 559 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: was them, I wouldn't want to do that either, but 560 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: if he ultimately wants to go, I'm just tired of 561 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: talking about Russell Wilson's trade potential. He has to ask 562 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: for a trade, and when he truly does, then we 563 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: can talk about it. But until he does, we're just 564 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: gonna talk about I mean, he's the ultimate hypothetical. Uh 565 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:58,360 Speaker 1: some other stories, Schefter said on the PF PFF podcast. 566 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: Did Jimmy Garoppolo, Uh could not get traded? Jimmy Garoppolos 567 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,960 Speaker 1: getting traded, And if he doesn't get traded, the forty 568 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: Niners deserved to get destroyed. They traded three first round 569 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: picks for Trey Lance. They gave him a red shirt 570 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: ear Now, Jimmy Garoppolos had to make twenty seven million dollars. 571 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: You need that money to use to build up your team. 572 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: And the only way for train Lands to get better 573 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: is to play football. You have entire offseason, you have 574 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: an entire training camp. Go sign a cheap veteran like 575 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: a Marcus Mariota and start the Tray Lance era. Now 576 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: I understand Kyle Shanahan going, well, we can only get 577 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: a fifth for Jimmy Garoppolo, why wouldn't we just keep him? 578 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: And the reason you keep them or I mean trade 579 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: them is because you need that money. Having that money 580 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: allows your caps to be bigger and allows you to 581 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: sign more players. So I don't and not Adam Schefter 582 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: you just said he could see it. I cannot see it. 583 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo will be traded in the next ten days, 584 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,959 Speaker 1: would be my guess. I'm recording this maybe a little longer, 585 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 1: maybe the next fourteen days, he will be traded. It'll 586 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 1: be unofficial before the league ear starts. Uh. Florio Mike 587 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,959 Speaker 1: Florio runs Pro football Talk. You ever heard of him. 588 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: He can be kind of annoying on social media, said 589 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: that teams are willing to trade for Deshaun Watson even 590 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: before his civil cases. And and the way that I've 591 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: heard other people talking about this is not a lawyer, 592 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 1: even though I watched some lawyer shows. Actually in inventing 593 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: Anna's kind of a lawyer show is that I guess 594 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: he has to settle or each individual civil case it's 595 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: on its own. Merit Like he can't just make all 596 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: of them go away in one thing. Everyone is an 597 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: individual case. So it's gonna be a pain in his ass. 598 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: I mean, it clearly is. And again I'm not assuming 599 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: guilt or innocence. I got no say, I have no clue. 600 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to stick up for him or not 601 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: stick up for him. I just know that he has 602 00:30:55,640 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: to figure out on a case by case basis. I 603 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: I know me personally, if I was a GM or 604 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: I was a coach, there's no way to know for 605 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: sure that not one of these cases gonna stick. I 606 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: couldn't do it. But I've said before in this podcast, 607 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 1: I'm not naive enough this pro sports, We're not They're 608 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 1: not taking moral high horse stances. And the NFL is 609 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: not the NBA. They're not faking anything. They're trying to 610 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: win football games and print money. So someone will trade 611 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 1: for this guy. And I think it's fair to say that, 612 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: like Jimmy Garoppolo, this guy is going to get traded 613 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: for in before free agency. Now, you know, if you're 614 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: case Ario. The problem is, I do think he loses 615 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: a little leverage with these cases hanging over him. If 616 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: he was just a high character, never been in trouble 617 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 1: like Ultimately, even if he's completely innocent on it this, 618 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: I do red flag him moving forward. He made a 619 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: terrible decision, and it's one thing to like, you know 620 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: your massage therapist, you started hooking up, he started dating 621 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 1: him on the side. He was banging every massage therapist 622 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: and out like that's I'd like my quarterback to have 623 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: some common sense from like, you know, there's a balancing 624 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: act in everything, And to me, Deshaun Watson got a 625 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: little out of pocket on this. And that's assuming he 626 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: did nothing wrong, which I know people in the NFL 627 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: think that he didn't. I've talked to people in the 628 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: NFL who have done their due diligence that believes he 629 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: just used this basically to get laid. Now back to 630 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 1: what I said, how could you as a GM. They're like, hey, 631 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: three ones in a two pull the trigger? Well, what 632 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: if one of these went a little haywire and it's 633 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 1: not gonna go away, and that hangs over your hat, 634 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: your head, and once you get into the situation of 635 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: O T S and training camp, ultimately something comes out 636 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: and you've already traded for him. To me, that'd be 637 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: pretty devastating, but I expect him to get traded.

The 649 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 1: Caleb Williams making over five million dollars I saw on 650 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: my Instagram feed today. Did this real estate like venture 651 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: capitalist firm in southern California is one of his n 652 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: i LS. What does that even mean? They're just funneling 653 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: him cash now. Caleb Williams is unique. I don't think 654 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,479 Speaker 1: a guy coming out of high school would have made 655 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: five million dollars. We saw him played Oklahoma. He's a 656 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: star quarterback. He'll be an NFL star. That would be strong. 657 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 1: He's got a ways to go, but he's an NFL 658 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: level prospect. Me he's a big time college player. He's 659 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 1: you know, he's got to improve when he's young, but 660 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,840 Speaker 1: part of his values he's already played. But that's pretty nuts. 661 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 1: And a couple of people have hit me, what do 662 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: you think about these guys at the n I l 663 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:27,280 Speaker 1: and start getting paid and once they get to the draft. 664 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: If I'm gonna go like top five and I don't 665 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 1: want to go to a team and I've already made 666 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,720 Speaker 1: five ten million dollars, do I have a little juice? 667 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 1: Do I say, you don't what Jacks? Don't draft me? 668 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: I ain't coming there. We're gonna see how this all 669 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 1: shakes out, because wants to start quarterbacks are getting five 670 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,760 Speaker 1: six million dollars. You know USC, Texas, we saw Texas 671 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: A and m Ohio State, some of these programs, like 672 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 1: it was already always a big deal. And you heard 673 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 1: on the underground, you know the big programs back when 674 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: you brown bagged and you still get brown bagged, I 675 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: think you get double you get brown bagged, and you 676 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,959 Speaker 1: get the stuff that's above board. You know, a top 677 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 1: flight guy would get four or five hundred thousand dollars 678 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: in basketball or football. I'm talking an elite guy in 679 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: football because football there's so many Like like a basketball guy, 680 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 1: there's a big difference between five million dollars and four 681 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 1: dollars in cash. You know, hell, I I'll pay taxes 682 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: on five million dollars, right, So it's there's a lot 683 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: of money. It's gonna be interesting if some of these 684 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: guys have the same drive and determination when they're I 685 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 1: can't imagine at nineteen twenty years old, still being in 686 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: college just having I mean do the math, having that 687 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 1: type cash come in. Are they paying your quarterly? I 688 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: mean are they Are they paying you lump sums of 689 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 1: a million dollars? You just get a million dollars in 690 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 1: your account? That would be pretty nuts. I give a 691 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:45,879 Speaker 1: lot of these kids a lot of credit if they're 692 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: able to stay in the straight and narrow, stay focused, 693 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 1: stay war card, go to class, you know, lead a 694 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: somewhat normal life because I don't care who you are. 695 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: You give a nineteen year old five million dollars and 696 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: things get weird fast. At least in the pros, like 697 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 1: in the NBA with a nineteen year he's around other pros, 698 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 1: like ultimately in college Caleb Williams around a lot of 699 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: other guys. They have no money. So at least when 700 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: you're drafted the number one overall pick like Anthony Edwards 701 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 1: one and done well, Karl Anthony Town's a ton of money, d' 702 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: angelo Russell a ton of money. Like other guys on 703 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: his team have more money than him. It's not in college. 704 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 1: Just like this guy is making five million dollars, the 705 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: next highest guy might be making like three grand, and 706 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,280 Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys making zero. It's like, hey, Caleb, 707 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 1: you want to go to dinner on you, buddy, I'm there. 708 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 1: Jordan's Love. Gudikins talked about this. I just don't think 709 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 1: there's a market for Jordan's Love because if you're the Packers, 710 00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 1: it makes no sense to give Jordan Love away. If 711 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:43,879 Speaker 1: someone's like, hey, I'll give you a six round pick 712 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: for Jordan Love, because to me, that's kind of his value. Right. 713 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 1: We saw Gardner Mitschew, who's put much better tape, go 714 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: for a six round pick. Where Jordan's love. I mean, 715 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 1: in the couple of games that we've seen him play. 716 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:55,439 Speaker 1: I guess last year we just saw him play the game. 717 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: I guess it was just the game. He looks like 718 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 1: a major. He just looks like a backup quarterback. And 719 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong with that. Now, ideally you don't want 720 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: to draft in the first round backup quarterbacks. But if 721 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 1: you're the Packers and you have a backup quarterback making 722 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,359 Speaker 1: a couple of million dollars, like, it's a pretty good deal. 723 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: You know him, you like him, just keeme around, Like 724 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 1: to me, George, there's a decent chance that Jordan Love 725 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: just stays on the team for like four or five years, 726 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 1: probably not the fifth year because you're not gonna pick 727 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 1: up a fifth year option, but just on your team 728 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: for four years. Now. Ultimately, it's not the greatest draft 729 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,520 Speaker 1: pick up all time, actually pretty shitty. But you got 730 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: a backup quarterback for four years, you just use your 731 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,720 Speaker 1: first round pick on it. But I do not expect 732 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,760 Speaker 1: Jordan's Love to get traded. I couldn't see any team 733 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: trading anything of value. And if you're the Packers, unless 734 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 1: you've got some value, like I know my backup quarterback, 735 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: I like them. And ultimately, if Aaron goes down, I'm 736 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: probably screwed either way. But at least I have this 737 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 1: guy that we can keep hopefully building up and has 738 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:53,399 Speaker 1: some talent. Uh So, the USFL had a draft. When 739 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: you see the first seven picks of the USFL and 740 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: they're all the quarterbacks. You realize why normal people are 741 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:03,839 Speaker 1: never gonna watch the a F, the XFL, the USFL. 742 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: The reason we watch Alabama in Texas and USC his 743 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 1: star players and star coaches. The reason we watch Bill's 744 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: Chiefs second round of the playoffs is Josh Allen and Mahomes. 745 00:38:18,239 --> 00:38:22,360 Speaker 1: The reason we watched Justin Herbert played Patrick Mahomes, Tom 746 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 1: Brady play Matt Stafford. You need star power these leagues. 747 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 1: Kyle Louletta, who was terrible in the pros, who's not 748 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: a pro quarterback, got drafted number one overall. So once 749 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:36,520 Speaker 1: I see the list of guys like that in half 750 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: of them, I don't even know. I go this league's doomed. 751 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: It's also why the Rock. When the Rock did that, 752 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: I don't even know what he did for the Super 753 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: Bowl right screaming into the microphone with his like burgundy 754 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 1: red and uh. It made sense when a couple of 755 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 1: days later he's a part owner in the XFL and 756 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 1: they're merging with the NFL. I bet the NFL is 757 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: gonna try to pump them some practice squad type guys 758 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 1: and try to help with maybe some young coaches. It's 759 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: a business partnership. That's why The Rock was on the 760 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 1: Super Bowl because it was like, you scratch my back, 761 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 1: I'll scratch your back. We're business partners. I bet the 762 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 1: NFL didn't even need to pay him to do that. 763 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:19,879 Speaker 1: They paid him through partnering with the XFL, and which 764 00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 1: he bought a couple of years ago. And I give 765 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 1: the Rock credit on this one. Buying the XFL doesn't 766 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,640 Speaker 1: make much sense on its own merit, but it does 767 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 1: make it does make sense if you're gonna partner with 768 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: the NFL. And ultimately, can you start getting some of 769 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:37,240 Speaker 1: their practice squad quarterbacks? Can you go, Hey, the Packers 770 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: are playing the Forts. In terms of the XFL teams, 771 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 1: Let's watch their two quarterbacks they both draft in the 772 00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: sixth round. Might get some eyeballs. Hey, the forty Niners 773 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: backup running back who's been on the practical on a 774 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,280 Speaker 1: couple of years is playing the Cowboys. You know, star 775 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 1: middle linebacker who's been a year on the practicequad. Star 776 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: would be strong. But you know what I'm saying, all 777 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,360 Speaker 1: these teams you start associate eating with it. It's like, oh, 778 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: this XFL team has a guy from Seattle as a 779 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 1: guy from the forty Niners as a guy from the Ramps, 780 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: get some eyeballs. That's what you have to do to 781 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: have any of these leagues have a chance. The reason 782 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: the USFL once upon a time had a glimmer of hope, 783 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: guys like Reggie White, Steve Young, and Herchel Walker. They 784 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 1: attempted to have the star power. With no star power, 785 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: you have nothing. With no star power, you have golf 786 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 1: pre Tiger Woods, you know what I mean. That's that's 787 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 1: what two thousand twenty two moving forward is all about, 788 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: and it's really been about in the Internet age. How 789 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,399 Speaker 1: are you going to draw people's attention? Where you draw 790 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 1: people's attention. You're never gonna get the best players in 791 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:40,479 Speaker 1: these second fiddle leagues. But if you can get people 792 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 1: associated with the star franchises, the Steelers guy, the Eagles guy, 793 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: the Cowboys guy, you got, you know, a puncher's chance. 794 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,400 Speaker 1: And you had to partner with the NFL. And the 795 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 1: Rock clearly is a good business man. He's making a 796 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: ton of money and every avenue of his life, and 797 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 1: UH interested to see kind of how that whole thing 798 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,800 Speaker 1: shakes out. I guess, last, but not at least J C. 799 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: Jackson star would be strong but really really good cornerback 800 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 1: for the New England Patriots. Uh is acting like the 801 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: Patriots aren't gonna pay him, Like, yeah, bro, you've been 802 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: watching the Patriots for the last couple of decades. They 803 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 1: usually don't pay a premium for non premiums. You're a 804 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,800 Speaker 1: good player, But I couldn't pay j C. Jackson twenty 805 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,400 Speaker 1: two million dollars a year. And the reality is is 806 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,399 Speaker 1: when you hit free agency, you typically get more because 807 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 1: you get multiple people bidding on you and you have 808 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,400 Speaker 1: a little leverage. J C. Jackson is an above average 809 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:35,879 Speaker 1: corner it's great ball skills, But I couldn't pay him. 810 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: Belichick knows this. Several years ago he paid Stepan Gilmour 811 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 1: peak money and it worked out why because Gilmore was 812 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 1: an elite talent. J C. Jackson is not. But but 813 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 1: j C. Jackson, you watch if Bill lets, some truly 814 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 1: walk is gonna get paid, and he's gonna get a 815 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:56,360 Speaker 1: lot of money, just like you know, some random guard 816 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: who's probably a four million dollar player is gonna hit 817 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,760 Speaker 1: free agency and some these teams with terrible offensive lines 818 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: are gonna give him nine million dollars.
