He want 180 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 4: to go celebrate with his teammates. Now here's what I 181 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 4: will say. He's probably a little pissed off in that 182 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 4: moment about something, right although they want, it's pissed off 183 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 4: about something that taking place in that game. 184 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 3: So I really don't feel like. 185 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 4: Talking to you right now.

To your point, 191 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 4: I didn't think it was a very big deal either. 192 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 3: And then I saw people like, well, you know how 193 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 3: much money you making? How much? 194 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 4: And I'm just like, hmm, if all Justin Herbert wanted 195 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 4: to do his interviews, he don't make that money. So 196 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 4: miss me with the you know how much money you made? 197 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 4: You got to do that? No, no, no, what he 198 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 4: has to do is what he did. He has to 199 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 4: go win football games. And if he win football games, 200 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 4: he makes that money for being a quarterback. 201 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 3: He don't make that that type of money. 202 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 4: Tom Brady makes that type of money for talking about 203 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 4: the game. Just Herbert doesn't make that type of money 204 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 4: for talking about the game. So miss me with the 205 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 4: when people try to act like, oh man, you just 206 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 4: got to do this, and I don't have to do 207 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 4: anything but go play this game. 208 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 3: And as long as I play this game at a 209 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 3: very high level, even. 210 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 4: If I don't do the interviews Mark Shawn Lynch, they 211 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 4: still gonna pay me at a very high level. 212 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 3: So miss me with that. 213 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 2: I was. 214 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: What fills the seats is the talent involved. 215 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: You know, like Justin Herbert is a is a is 216 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 2: a headliner. 217 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: You know that there's nothing throws he made. 218 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: There's a reason why they won, you know, and that's 219 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 2: the reason why they want to interview him. 220 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: When you make big plays, you get big questions. 221 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 4: Exactly, they didn't go interview the third string quarterback. So again, 222 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 4: don't tell me it's it's responsibility and that's why he's paid. 223 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 3: Stop with that.
