Uh, Brie, 25 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: you do have the a quick edit for so a 26 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 2: little bit of a backstory here, just so this makes sense. 27 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 2: LeVar was giving Lee and Lorraine a hard time yesterday 28 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 2: because they are both off today and they are both 29 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 2: in Vancouver because they are going with Coop and are 30 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 2: going to be a part of the Ben mallor meet 31 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 2: and greet up there and to hang out with the listeners, 32 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 2: and so you know, Lee wanted to be a part 33 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 2: of that. A little weird, but hey, is what it is. 34 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 2: He wanted to do. He wanted to take off our 35 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: show and go be a part of that with them 36 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 2: all good. He had vacation days, not a big deal 37 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: at all. LeVar called him out on the air and 38 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 2: it sounded like this. 39 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 3: Yesterday, I have graduation today, right, I've had a very 40 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 3: very busy week. The twins are graduating high school today, right. 41 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 3: And I really was going to take off tomorrow, Like 42 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 3: I was going to take the show off tomorrow going 43 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 3: to I was going to. But now I think to myself, like, 44 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna let you outwork me. I'm not gonna 45 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 3: let Jonas Knox outwork me. So I'm going to come 46 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 3: in and work tomorrow. And I see Loraina in the 47 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 3: hallway and I asked, Lorena, you know how you doing? 48 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 3: What's going on this weekend? She's out of town this weekend? 49 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 3: Oh great, that's great, perfect, Go, I have a great time. 50 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 3: How are you leaving us tomorrow? You can't, you can't 51 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 3: do the show? And then go, that's what I'm saying. 52 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 3: So you're leaving today, You're randomly off tomorrow. You're standing 53 00:02:59,520 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 3: on that. 54 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: I am off tomorrow. No, No, that's not what I 55 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: asked you. 56 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 2: I asked you, are. 57 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 3: You randomly off tomorrow the same day as Lorna? 58 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 2: I don't know what that means, but yes, I am 59 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 2: off tomorrow. And if it turns out, so is LeVar. 60 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: After all, after all that, and by the way, we 61 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 2: saved you, because that was the the abbreviated version of 62 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 2: it all. Job well done by Brie, But it was 63 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 2: a long interrogation and. 64 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: Entire segment you literally spend entire segment chastising Lee for 65 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: choosing to go to Vancouver, which, from all accounts cool 66 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: place to go visit if you get an opportunity to go, 67 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: and why not? And I have no problem with it. 68 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: But for the record, I don't have a problem with 69 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: LeVar being off today. You can't be a gigantic hypocrite 70 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 1: and then be saying, yeah, you don't want to be 71 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: out worked barely, you didn't mind that now, and you 72 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: can't chastise some what else we're taking a day off 73 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: that you want to take off too. Just go. It's 74 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: not a bit deal. 75 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: It was uh, it was very very interesting, uh to 76 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: find out how this whole thing played out. I mean, look, 77 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 2: hopefully he's in Vancouver too, like that would make the 78 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: story even even better. But but nonetheless, I know LeVar 79 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 2: to be Brady Quinn and I taken you all the 80 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 2: way up until nine am Eastern times, six o'clock Pacific, 81 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 2: and look, you know, we were pointing out that it 82 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: is a football Friday here on the show, as much 83 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 2: as we talked about the the Pacers and the Nicks 84 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 2: and what happened last night and New York survives and 85 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 2: they're onto another game six in Indiana. Uh, we did 86 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 2: get some news yesterday, though it did become official yesterday 87 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 2: if people were wondering, so what the hell are we 88 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: going to do? The first couple of weeks of the 89 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: college football season. Oh, don't worry, We've got the answer 90 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 2: just for you, because ladies and gentlemen, we now know 91 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 2: the first three weeks the Big Noon Kickoff schedule has 92 00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 2: at least the first three weeks and the last game 93 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 2: of the season. Yeah, of course, and uh and the 94 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 2: Mountain West Championship game as well too. I saw that's right, championship. 95 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 2: So when when when Hawaii goes to the Mountain West 96 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: Championship game? It should be should be a fun time. 97 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 2: Week one, August thirtieth, a blockbuster Texas at Ohio State 98 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 2: in Columbus at the Horseshoe, the defending national champions against 99 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 2: the Texas Longhorns. Should be a fun ride there. Week 100 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 2: two the Sihawk. We've got Iowa at Iowa State in Ames, 101 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 2: that's September sixth. Week three you go to Evanston, Oregon 102 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 2: at Northwestern on September thirteenth. The first three weeks of 103 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: the college football schedule have been set as far as 104 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 2: the Big Noon Kickoff goes. And my big question is 105 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 2: will the fans in Ames and Evanston both bitch about 106 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: the star time considering it is even an hour earlier 107 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 2: than the fans in Columbus and certain politicians have been 108 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 2: complaining about when it comes to Ohio State. I'm just wondering, 109 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:12,559 Speaker 2: are the star times going to be a problem again 110 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 2: for people? 111 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: Absolutely not. The other game obviously that's marked on the 112 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: schedule that is guaranteed is Ohio State at Michigan playing 113 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 1: up in ann Arbor. We'll see if they can break through, 114 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: but that game traditionally has been and most likely will 115 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 1: be at noon noonkick. You do bring up a good point. 116 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: There's been a lot of people, in particular Ohio State fans, 117 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: even some Penn State fans who've been frustrated with the 118 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: star times for games. Just want't people to understand when 119 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: when Ohio State Texas, which was originally announced as a 120 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: Fox game, that game, the time was not announced, and 121 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 1: there's a reason for that. They didn't announce until yesterday 122 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: because Ohio State and Texas, we all know how monumental 123 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: of a game this is. I mean, just to put 124 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,360 Speaker 1: into perspective, as a team who's the defending national champion 125 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: hosting arguably the toughest maybe best opponent of their entire schedule, 126 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: and every TV network's very cognizant of how important that 127 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: game is and so there was a lot of effort 128 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: to put it into primetime. This isn't like me just 129 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: trying to posture for Fox or anything, because I'll remind 130 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: people our pregame show for Fox has zero to do 131 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: with the start time of games. I know, because we 132 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: show up there people think that, But we did five 133 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: different games last year that were not noon kicks. We 134 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: were at a completely different property for a three point 135 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 1: thirty or a four o'clock kick in a completely different 136 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: part of the country. And we've been two primetime games 137 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: before where we've been there in the morning, four games 138 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: that weren't until night. So I will reiterate we have 139 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: zero to do with the start times of games. This 140 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: is how it worked out the Big ten media rights deal, 141 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: which Fox has handsomely paid two billion dollars to the 142 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: Big Ten four. It's one of the reasons why the 143 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: Big Ten conference makes the most of any of the 144 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: Power four conferences from their TV media rights deal. And 145 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: then obviously CBS and NBC are part of that. There's 146 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: a structured agreement. Fox is at noon, CBS is at 147 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: three thirty, NBC's in primetime. In order to move a 148 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: game that you have selected to a primetime spot, you 149 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: have to work with that network to move it. So 150 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: if I was to say to you hypothetically speaking, there 151 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: was a conversation with NBC and they asked, hey, can 152 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 1: we move this game to primetime? What do you think? 153 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: NBC said Jays. The game then was talked about with 154 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: Texas O House State to be played on Sunday. We're like, hey, 155 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: would you be able to want to play this game 156 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: on Sunday? So the thirty first, not the thirtieth on 157 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: Sunday in primetime. Ohio State was for it, Texas said no, 158 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: which has come out in about a week or so ago. 159 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: That sorted to leak out. So I know there's people 160 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 1: who are frustrated with the start time of the game. 161 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: Every effort was made to put this game in primetime. 162 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: As a former player and now working in this job, 163 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't make any difference to me whether the game's 164 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: at noon or whether it's in primetime. And I understand 165 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: the atmosphere and primetime is what it is for fans 166 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 1: and players. I get that, like we want it to 167 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: be in primetime, we do, but the reality is, per 168 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: the Big Ten Media Rightes Agreement and per the University 169 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: of Texas who didn't want to delay it another day. 170 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: The game couldn't be moved, so there's nothing that we 171 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: can do about that. So Ohio State fans can be 172 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: upset about it. Go talk to your university, Go talk 173 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 1: to the Big Ten conference. This is the deal that 174 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,599 Speaker 1: Kevin Warren signed before he left and went to the 175 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears. So there's a lot of other people who 176 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: are basically pointing the finger. You'd have taken responsibility into 177 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: all this. So that's the tough part about the start 178 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: time for Texas and Ohio State. We'll still be excited 179 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 1: to be there. It's a huge game that doesn't change 180 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: anything for us. 181 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 2: So they had options and this could have been placed elsewhere. 182 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 2: So the idea that you guys are catching the flak 183 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 2: is you're catching the flack for somebody else's ultimately somebody 184 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 2: else's decision. 185 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 1: Sort of. I mean there's options, but their options are 186 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: limited because we have to have again the agreement from 187 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 1: any game you want to move, whether it's CBS or 188 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: NBC into those windows, you have to get that network 189 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: to clear off on it. Because that's part of how 190 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: the media rights deal with structured for the Big Ten 191 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: it's different for the SEC. It's just Disney owns that, 192 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: so they can basically place and put whatever teams they want, 193 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: whatever windows they want because they're controlling all of it 194 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: between ABC and ESPN. I guess, so it's an entirely 195 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: different structure because you're not working within your own network. 196 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: You're working with the other networks. You're competing with, right, 197 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: You're competing with those networks for advertised dollars. Again, there's 198 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 1: a reason why the Big ten gets two billion a year. 199 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: It's because of largely what Fox has built with this 200 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,439 Speaker 1: new window, which until last year was the most watched 201 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: window in college football. Yeah, and so that means that 202 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: you get more advertising dollars. That means that TV network 203 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: can pay you more money for the rights to those games. 204 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 1: So everything else that goes into our athletics program, they're 205 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: getting paid more from Fox and CBS and NBC then 206 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 1: you're seeing from Disney to the SEC. 207 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 2: I guess. The part that I still have a hard 208 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 2: time understanding when it comes to the complaining is it's 209 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 2: not like it's no man's land. Like we're not talking 210 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 2: about you know, PAC twelve after dark. We're not talking 211 00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 2: about Oh, it's you know, Hawaii's playing at eleven fifty 212 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 2: nine pm Eastern time. We're not talking about the Latin 213 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 2: you're it's literally it's a giant window. It's a giant audience. 214 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 2: The numbers have proven so, and yet they're still complaining, Well, 215 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: you don't want to have kickoffs at early, okay, so 216 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 2: what do you do? You want to move all the 217 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 2: way back so you have it so you can get 218 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 2: a bunch of stuff done during the day and then 219 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 2: you can have your game. Like I just I don't 220 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,599 Speaker 2: understand that. And the first guy I think then I 221 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 2: forget his name, the ad at Oklahoma who was complaining 222 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 2: about all these these eleven am start times and these 223 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 2: eleven am you know, local times there. It's like, dude, 224 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: would you rather be playing in a window that was 225 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: seen by less people? 226 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 4: Like? 227 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 2: Would you rather have less people see your program? Like 228 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 2: I don't understand that whole concept, because it feels like 229 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 2: when you guys do go to these places, when you 230 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 2: do go to other places, when you're gonna be in Evanston, 231 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 2: when you're gonna be in ams Man, those people are 232 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 2: fired up for it and there and it's an hour earlier. 233 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: This isn't like and you were on the call for 234 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 2: one of these games. Didn't you call a game at 235 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 2: nine am at the Rose Bowl during COVID like you? 236 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 2: And was that a Sunday nine am game or some 237 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 2: crazy the some weird time like that local time. We're 238 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 2: not talking about nobody watching, no audience whatsoever. You're opening up, 239 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 2: you know, a giant concert and you're the first opening 240 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 2: app with nobody there. The audience is huge, the fans 241 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 2: are there, the eyeballs are there, the attention is there, 242 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 2: the coverage is there. You guys do it up as 243 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 2: well as anybody. I don't get the complaints. I really don't. 244 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't. It doesn't make sense to me. 245 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: It's interesting you brought up the athletic director for Texas 246 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: because he used to be the athletic director for Oklahoma. 247 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: You're referencing Joe becaust to go on. That's right, Yeah, 248 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: who made the comments about the start times. And you know, 249 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: the reality is he's the idea of Texas. It's one 250 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: of the reasons why you know, again he doesn't he 251 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 1: says he doesn't like it, yet he will on the 252 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: road in this case, because apparently they're worried about San 253 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: Jose State, who they play in Week two on September sixth, 254 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: and that's why they don't want to have a short 255 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: week and play on Sunday. Otherwise the game would be 256 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 1: in primetime and it would be going head to head 257 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: versus Notre Dame Miami. So again I understand the frustration 258 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: from Ohio State fans or even other fan bases that, 259 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,319 Speaker 1: for example, like Penn State's already announced I believe their 260 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: white out game this year is versus Oregon. Well, last 261 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: year their white out game was announced that it was 262 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: worth first Washington before the season, but we had Penn 263 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: State Ohio State, and for some reason, like they want 264 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: that to be a whiteout too. Minunderstanding from LeVar, a 265 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: minor standing from other Penn State folks is that they 266 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: have one white out a year. I didn't know we 267 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 1: were doing multiple. So again Fox was looking at trying 268 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: to move it hard too, for a couple of reasons. 269 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: A they had the World Series which was Yankees Dodgers. 270 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: No disrespect to Penn State and Ohio State. You're not 271 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: going to rate higher than a Yankees Dodgers. What would 272 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 1: have been a game six or seven whatever it was 273 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: in that series, even though it didn't make it that 274 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: far so that it was tough to be able to 275 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: adjust the windows for that reason, but also again working 276 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: with the other partnering networks, that also made it difficult. 277 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: So you know, when you look at the grand landscape 278 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: of it, it's not as simple as saying, oh, we 279 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: have this game, what's the row in prime time? And 280 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: that's in part because of the deal that was signed 281 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: by every Big ten school, Ohio State, Penn State included, 282 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: and the TV networks as well. And this is the 283 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: first style of we've really had three different networks, you know, 284 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: cutting into a conference like this in such a major way. 285 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: Usually it's been like a shared between Fox and ESPN, 286 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: who are sharing the rights to like the Big twelve, 287 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: and so you're only working with one other partner going 288 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: back and forth. Now you've got two others that you're 289 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 1: trying to kind of make everyone happy, and it's hard 290 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: sometimes to do so. So again I get the frustration. 291 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: We have zero to do with that for our pregame show. 292 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: So it's just wild, Tony. Any reason to bitch it, 293 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 2: just why And there's nothing, by the way, there's nothing 294 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 2: wrong with having the game that early. One of the 295 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 2: great sporting events you can go to is a Friday 296 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 2: day game at Wrigley Field, one twenty first pitch, you're 297 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 2: out by four o'clock. Got the rest of your day 298 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 2: ahead of you. Come on, man. The game wraps up, 299 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 2: Ohio State picks up another win. It's three thirty three, 300 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 2: forty five in the afternoon in Columbus, and you just 301 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 2: get all your buddies together and you go rent out 302 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 2: of booth at Vaso later on that night in Dublin 303 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 2: and you tear it up for the rest of the night. 304 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: What's the bitch about? And you can watch all the 305 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 2: other games. You can watch all the other games and 306 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 2: enjoy the rest of your day as opposed to having 307 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 2: to gear up. Is it because of the tailgating? Is 308 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 2: because of well, we can't tailgate as long. Sure, you 309 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 2: can't start at midnight. Do what Lee to Lap would do. 310 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 2: It just feels like there's options here. 311 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: Do what LeVar does. Just go all day. It doesn't 312 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: matter when the game starts. You're gonna leave it halftime. 313 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: You needna tail it afterwards. You gonna game the game. 314 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 1: Had it hours ago, you're still off the tailgating. That's 315 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: that's what he does. 316 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 2: Like there's options here, but but the idea that it's like, 317 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 2: oh my god, this is a punishment really, Like, do 318 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 2: you know how many schools would kill for the opportunity 319 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 2: to be seen with that audience, with that many eyeballs 320 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 2: and to have you guys there. How many schools are like, God, 321 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: we'd love to We'd love to be a part of this. Like, look, 322 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 2: they can say whatever they want about Dion and Coach 323 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 2: Prime and the growth and all the popularity. A big 324 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 2: part of that was your guys' presentation of that place, 325 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 2: the beautiful backdrop that like what they like. Texas Tech 326 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 2: put on a show last year. Yet Danny Amandola blowing 327 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,199 Speaker 2: stuff up on set, like like, it's not like you 328 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: guys just going there take over and tear. It's not 329 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,439 Speaker 2: like the Olympic Village and everything's Look, no, you're like 330 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 2: building up and help build up the promotion of a program. 331 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 2: I just the complaints have never It's never made sense 332 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:41,120 Speaker 2: to me, honestly. 333 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: Well, look, I understand it from the standpoint of and 334 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: I mean, look, in many cases, if we're there, it's 335 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: it's a big game, it's a big matchup, and so 336 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: I understand that, especially for Ohio State fans. Because I 337 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 1: was there at the Ohio State Tennessee game. I know 338 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: exactly what that atmosphere looks like at night. I grew 339 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: up going as a kid. I've just went recently, so 340 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: I understand how how electric it may be. And clearly, 341 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: based on how that game went, you'd say this is 342 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: an advantage for us, But there also is an element 343 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: of like, you're still playing Texas at home, and this 344 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 1: will largely be the toughest game that arch Manning plays 345 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 1: up until the playoff, and you could maybe even say 346 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: it'll be the toughest start that Archie Manning ever has 347 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: in his career. You know, some people who have put 348 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: out these projected mock drafts after the twenty twenty five 349 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,959 Speaker 1: season have him as the number one quarterback. He's started 350 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: what three games, and he's played in a handful of others. 351 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: So if you're looking at it from a timing standpoint 352 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: on a young quarterback having to play on the road 353 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 1: versus Ohio State, like this sets up perfectly for you, 354 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: and again a lot of time to prepare before the season, 355 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 1: but for his to cut his teeth Ohio State in Columbus, 356 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 1: it's just a tall task, and I understand how they're 357 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: You know, if you're in a night game atmosphere, you 358 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 1: feel like, well, maybe that gives you an advantage. Like 359 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: I've been in that stadium for night games. I've been 360 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,880 Speaker 1: in that stadiums for a noon games. House stage fans 361 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,479 Speaker 1: show out regardless, it doesn't matter what time it is. 362 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: It just they seem to, you know, think that the 363 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: nighttime gives them a big time advantage. And I've always said, 364 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 1: like night games are fun to plan. They stink to 365 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: wait for. That's one thing I know as a player, 366 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: like I'd much rather play earlier in the day. But again, 367 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 1: I understand the frustration with it. I'm just trying to 368 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: explain to people so they know that it's not like 369 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: purely sitting on Fox. Like they did what they could 370 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: to try to move the game to primetime. It just 371 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 1: it didn't work out that way. There's a lot of 372 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: other moving pieces. 373 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 2: I mean, now we've got to figure out, uh, you know, 374 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 2: which games we're going to be a part of this show. 375 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 2: I mean, you know Oregon Northwestern would be a. 376 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 1: I mean you think Texas, Ohio state that we would 377 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: be able to figure that out. 378 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, the graduates. Right, I mean, it's 379 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 2: there before, That's what I'm saying. 380 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: We've been there before, We've done it before. It makes 381 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: a lot of sense. 382 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: They had a wheel LaVar in on a gurney. 383 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: Never he thought he had he had a legit was 384 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: it an achilles injury or foot injury. Then we just we 385 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 1: I diagnosed gollut pretty quick and he was like, oh, yeah, 386 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: maybe it is that. And sure enough it was just gout. 387 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 2: Yeah I think, And I told him to Yeah, my 388 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 2: my buddy went through the same thing. He said it 389 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 2: was gout like red Scout and like some some issues 390 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:17,400 Speaker 2: like that. So yeah, I mean, well, alcohol, too much alcohol. 391 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: This seems this seems possible, man, Yeah, I mean it 392 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: does seem possible. We'll see if we can get everyone 393 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: everyone there. You know, he's not here today, but it is. 394 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: It is interesting. That was a very NBA S type 395 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: injury for LeVar where there's a lot of drama, the 396 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: whole like wheelchair situation. That's that's true. 397 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 2: I am off tomorrow, thank you. 398 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: He is, Yeah, he is. He's gonna be off for 399 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: a while most likely. But it was interesting that he 400 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: he has this whole wheelchair situation just to find out 401 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: his gout. I haven't known many people who dealt with 402 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: the wheelchair because of gout. Now, maybe I don't know 403 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 1: that many people with gout, But that felt like, I 404 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 1: don't know, kind of felt I was a Paul Pierce 405 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: who got wheeled. Yeah, it kind of felt like that 406 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 1: sort of injury drama behind it. 407 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 2: And he was there, and he was there, We got 408 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 2: to got to hang out the graduates. Yeah, that would 409 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 2: be that would be a full On August thirtieth, we 410 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: got Texas, Ohio State.

Yeah, I 448 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 1: mean obviously the danger of it, how difficult it is. 449 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: So it's it's ashions, it's fun, it's entertaining to see 450 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 1: what that lifestyle would look like.

Speaking of deadliest Catch, somebody who's 469 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 2: catching a lot of heat for their behavior off the 470 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 2: field is one Justin Tucker. Justin Tucker, who was the 471 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 2: formerly the kicker of the Baltimore Ravens. He was recently released. 472 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 2: John Harbass spoke about it, said, well, you know, there's 473 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 2: a little bit more that went into it, but they 474 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 2: keep throwing the old football decision storyline attached to it. 475 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 2: Here was the Ravens head coach explaining why the team 476 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 2: decided to walk away from a potential future Hall of 477 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 2: Famer who might also be a bit of a weirdo. 478 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,239 Speaker 5: It was a complex decision making process, and you know, 479 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 5: I'm a part of it, Eric Sashi, Ozzie Steve is 480 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 5: a big part of those kind of decisions. I mean, 481 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 5: you're talking about, you know, arguably the best kicker in 482 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 5: history of the game, you know, and like we said, 483 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 5: it's multi layered, it's complicated, but you've got it. In 484 00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 5: the end. It all back, it all comes back to 485 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 5: what you have to do to get ready for your 486 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 5: team to play the first game, and I think if 487 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 5: you step back and you take a look at all 488 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 5: the issues and all the ramifications, you can understand that, 489 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 5: you know, we've got to get our football team ready 490 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 5: and we've got to have a kicker ready to go, 491 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 5: and that was the move that we decided to make. 492 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 5: So in that sense, it's a football decision, you know. 493 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,479 Speaker 5: And now we have to spend all of our focus 494 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 5: and our time to get these kickers ready and we've 495 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 5: got a competition going on and get those guys ready 496 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 5: to go make kicks. So's that's all I'm thinking about. 497 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 5: Like from my perspective, it's like, we got to have 498 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 5: a kicker out there making kicks, you know, and what's 499 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 5: the best way to get that done. 500 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 2: He's good, man, he is good. That is a season 501 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 2: vet when it comes to spinning and working it back 502 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 2: into just getting ready for the season. 503 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 1: You know, let's just go ahead and be honest and 504 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: call it out. Is all right? Justin Tucker is a 505 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame kicker, all right. He will go into 506 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, I believe despite what's occurring right 507 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: now off the field. He only made seventy three percent 508 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: of his kicks to put it into context, he hasn't 509 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 1: missed less than eighty two, which was at an earlier 510 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: stage in his career eighty two percent early on. Ever, 511 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: most of his kicking has been above eighty five percent 512 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 1: of his kicks. He was twenty two of thirty last year. 513 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: And this is coming off years where he missed five 514 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: the year before that, sixty year before that, and by 515 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 1: the way, only two back in twenty twenty one. So 516 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: he has been elite. He has been the standard at times. 517 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 1: He's got a long leg as well. When you look 518 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: at you know what he's said. I think he say 519 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 1: the sixty six yard back in that same year in 520 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. I mean, he's been incredible, but he's 521 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 1: gotten to a point where he's no longer playing up 522 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: to that ability. And when you are one of those 523 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: extraordinary talents and you've got some off the field issues 524 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 1: but you start not producing, that's when seems to move 525 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,360 Speaker 1: on from you. It's the dirty truth. People can take 526 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,400 Speaker 1: issue with that, but as long as you're talented enough, 527 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: you'll always have an opportunity despite your transgressions off the field. 528 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 2: We'll keep it in the AFC North. Stop me. If 529 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 2: you've heard this before, somebody with the Bengals is not 530 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 2: happy with their contract. This time it's somebody who's not 531 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 2: actually even officially a member of the Bengals yet, Shamar Stewart. 532 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 2: Apparently there's language in the contract he is still not 533 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 2: shown up to OTAs. It feels like the Bengals are 534 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,959 Speaker 2: always in some sort of a mess. There was a 535 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 2: report that came out from Jeremy Fowler who said that 536 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 2: some people around the league think that Trey Hendrickson could 537 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 2: miss games he's that dead set on wanting to get 538 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: a new deal or being sent elsewhere if the Bengals 539 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 2: do not offer that up. So apparently a team who 540 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 2: swore up and down defense is a priority. We are 541 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 2: not just an offensive team. They've got two potential key 542 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 2: members of their defensive line who are nowhere to be 543 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 2: found when it comes to OTAs and potentially for the season. 544 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: Just so people understand, this is some of the frustration 545 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: that players have when negotiating with teams, in particular with 546 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: the rookie contract. So he hasn't agreed upon terms yet 547 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: and because of that, people are frustrated that he hasn't 548 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: been a part of the rookie mini camp or OTAs. 549 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: He's gotten some pushback on that, but most people, if 550 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: they were in his shoes, would do the same damn thing. 551 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: You're not going to sign a contract unless you feel 552 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 1: comfortable with it. And here's why he doesn't feel comfortable 553 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 1: with it. The Bengals are trying to introduce new language, 554 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: all right. They haven't done this before in any of 555 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: the rookie deals, in particular their first round draft picks. 556 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: They're trying to include a claw that could clause that 557 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 1: could void his future guarantees if he defaults in one year. 558 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: So they're trying to do something that's never been done before. 559 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: Him and his agent are like, wait a second, you 560 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: just drafted you know, first round draft picks in previous drafts. 561 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: This wasn't the case. Why are you doing it now? 562 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: And this is what the owners do. They try to 563 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: you know, pick away and claw away and get back 564 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: little things within some of these contracts because there's not 565 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: as much to negotiate anymore. It's basically been the signing 566 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: bonus and the timing of the signing bonus, an offset language. 567 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: And now we get more owners trying to you know 568 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: again claw and straight back because maybe they don't like 569 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: the rookie draft salary pool. Maybe they don't like the 570 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: structure of a lot of these first round deals that 571 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: are now fully guaranteed, so they're doing all they can 572 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 1: cheap asses to try to make a way of them 573 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: not having to worry about paying him the guaranteed contract 574 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: that he should be receiving based on their own precedent, 575 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: it's the same. I just like people on the outside 576 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: don't understand how cheap rich people are, sometimes in particular owners, 577 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: and instead of siding with the player a guy who's 578 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: going to make the most money ever in his life 579 00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: while playing in the NFL, they'd rather side with the 580 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: They'd rather side with the guy who's got an eight 581 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: hundred nine hundred million dollars in their bank. 582 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 2: Speaking of the defensive line, Joey Bosa is a brand 583 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 2: new member of the Buffalo Bills, and right before OTA's 584 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 2: calf injury popped up, he is expected to be ready 585 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 2: for training camp. But as of right now, a guy 586 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: who's dealt with a ton of injuries, especially over the 587 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 2: past couple of years, Joey Bosa already dealing with one. 588 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 2: I don't know if this is on par with what 589 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson went through last year where he suffered this 590 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 2: calf injury that bled all the way into the season. 591 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 2: But nonetheless brand new home for Joey Bosa, same old 592 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 2: injury story when it comes to him, who just can't 593 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 2: seem to stay healthy over the past couple of years. 594 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: When he is healthy though, he's a Pro Bowl caliber player. 595 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: I think we'd all agree on that, and that's what 596 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 1: Buffalo is hoping to get. The hard part is, I mean, 597 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: he's he started what eighteen games of the course the 598 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: last three years, he just has not been able to 599 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: stay healthy. And I think his last high mark year 600 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 1: where he played every game with twenty twenty one, he 601 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: had ten and a half sacks. But worry out on 602 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: Joey Bosa as far as the impact they're hoping he's 603 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: actually going to have. 604 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 2: He's not even thirty yet, Guys, not even thirty years old. 605 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 2: There was some speculation that he was going to potentially 606 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 2: bookend in San Francisco with his brother. That was kicked 607 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 2: around a little bit, and I think the Bills came 608 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 2: in and offered him a little bit more money and 609 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 2: he said, well, you know, I'd rather go there than 610 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 2: go play with my brother in California, so he is 611 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 2: with the Bills. Hopefully he will be back on the 612 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 2: field at some point, very very soon, because yes, when 613 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 2: he is healthy, I look him and Khalil Mack. That 614 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 2: appeared to be one of the better pass rushing duos 615 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 2: that there was, but it was, much like many things 616 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 2: with the Chargers, just never seemed to get to where 617 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 2: they thought it was going to be. Lastly, here on 618 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 2: this week's edition of the topic roundup something near and 619 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 2: dear to the heart of one Brady Quinn. Apparently the 620 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 2: EACE Sports cover they're going to feature current players, coaches 621 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 2: and others. Is this the College Football twenty five? Because 622 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 2: I'm seeing when it comes to the new College Football 623 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 2: twenty five and the College Football on Fox, folks over 624 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 2: on Instagram made sure to point out all of the 625 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 2: previous players that were on the cover. Apparently we've got 626 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 2: a couple of wide receivers that are getting some love 627 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 2: this year. You are going to get Jeremiah Smith and 628 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 2: why is Ryan Williams of Alabama who's going to be 629 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 2: featured there? So's two stud wide receivers who I think 630 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 2: both just turned fifteen, if I'm not mistaken, are going 631 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 2: to be featured on the cover of EA Sports twenty five. 632 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: Were you big? 633 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 2: Did you ever play with yourself in the game? 634 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: In No, I never played with myself in game. 635 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 2: No I'm saying. I'm saying with the game, I never 636 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 2: did that. I'm saying with. 637 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: Video yet, Yeah, No I didn't. I didn't play the 638 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: video game back then either. It would have been cool. 639 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: I think, looking back on it, I probably should have 640 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: done that more. But it's a neat opportunity for these guys. 641 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: I'm just glad they're able to cash into on the 642 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: sports using their name, image and likeness. Here's what I 643 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: don't understand. Didn't they already come out with some sort 644 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: of cover or was that a promotion for the cover 645 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: of it with like a bunch of people on it. 646 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 647 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: I was like, I know Jeremiah Love was on that, 648 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: Marcus Freeman was on that. I saw them. I know 649 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: Reggie was there on the side. What was that then? 650 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: That's not the cover of the game. 651 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,239 Speaker 2: I don't think so. Yeah, because I saw that as 652 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 2: well too. They had everybody sort of featured there. 653 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you saw Ryan Wilson and Jeremiah Smith too. 654 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: Is a part of that. But look, if you're talking 655 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: if you're going to tell me that those two players 656 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: an be on the cover, very deserving. Jeremiah Smith is 657 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: probably the best player, in my opinion in college football overall, 658 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: if you take out you know position and all that 659 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 1: and you know and how you value position. Ryan Williams 660 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: is right there too. Like, both those guys are incredible talents. 661 00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 2: By the way, would he have gone ahead of t 662 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 2: MAC this year? 663 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: Yes, and both those guys would have. They both would 664 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: have been probably top ten, top five picks, depending on 665 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:08,720 Speaker 1: the need of the team's drafting. 666 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 2: By the way I'm looking at it, I did an 667 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 2: AI search for you in this game in college football 668 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:18,920 Speaker 2: twenty five. Brady Quinn's presence in the game EA Sports 669 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 2: College Football twenty five includes a roster of real life 670 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,319 Speaker 2: college football players, and Brady Quinn, who played at Notre 671 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 2: dameas among them. 672 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: Right, yeah, I think they have past players as a 673 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: part of it. That's usually some of it. How far 674 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: are they to go back? Does it? Say? 675 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,439 Speaker 2: I don't see I'm not a big video game guy, 676 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 2: so not really my cup of tea. But who wouldn't 677 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 2: want to see you and Samarja hooking up again? Breaking 678 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 2: the hearts of UCLA fans back at the back there 679 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 2: in South Bend, and. 680 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: That's always fun. Yeah. I was pretty unstoppable in the 681 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 1: game from what I'm told. 682 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,839 Speaker 2: So it is Two Pros and a Cup of Joe 683 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 2: here on Fox Sports Radio.

We will discuss that for you 707 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 2: here on FSR. Speaking of home games, Justin Field's home 708 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 2: games will be at MetLife Stadium this year. Very interesting 709 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 2: by the way that we are going to eventually see 710 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: Rogers go where Justin Fields and Russell Wilson were, and 711 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,839 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson and Justin Fields go play where Rogers was. 712 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: It's kind of a little bit of a swap there. 713 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 2: Very interesting how it all played out. But apparently Justin 714 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 2: Fields very optimistic looking forward to his time as the 715 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 2: quarterback of the New York Jets, and had this to say, 716 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:42,280 Speaker 2: I think. 717 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 6: I can be great, you know, and that's going to 718 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 6: go for me my whole life, my whole career. So 719 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 6: like I said, you know, I think this guy's a limit, 720 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 6: you know, for this team, for this offense. 721 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: But we do have a long way to go. 722 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 6: Like I said, our offense and defense are new. So 723 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 6: guys are you know, really tuned in and locked in 724 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 6: and trying to get everything down. But think, you know, 725 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 6: once we do, I think this guy's are limit. I mean, 726 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 6: we have, you know, all the guys we need, We 727 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 6: have all the talents, so it's really just going to 728 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,880 Speaker 6: come down to discipline, nection, execution when the games come. 729 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 2: Brady, you know me, the last thing I want to 730 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:14,799 Speaker 2: do is be negative. It's just not my thing. I 731 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 2: don't believe that there is a quarterback alive who can 732 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 2: fix whatever the hell that is with the New York Jets. 733 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 2: I'm convinced, like every everything. 734 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: You don't think even if like Josh Allen or Patrick 735 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: Mahomes or Lamar Jackson went there, like they couldn't they 736 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: couldn't fix that. 737 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 2: I mean within reason, Like those guys aren't going to 738 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 2: become available. By the time they are there, they'll probably 739 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:42,879 Speaker 2: past their prime. I just don't. I don't, I don't 740 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 2: see it. I'm sorry, I can't. Like I wish the 741 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:48,879 Speaker 2: best for him, Like he seems like a great guy. 742 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 2: I'm glad he got you know, a little bit of 743 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,279 Speaker 2: a payday and he's getting a real opportunity there, unlike 744 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 2: he got last year in Pittsburgh really, but I just 745 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:56,920 Speaker 2: I don't see it. I'm sorry. 746 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 1: He's got a lot of upside and I think if 747 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: he keeps continuing as a player, he can give them 748 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: a shot because he does have some dynamic ability. But 749 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 1: there's a lot of things working against some history being 750 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: one of them. But just that organization always seems like 751 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: something goes wrong. It's hard to put your finger on why, 752 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,799 Speaker 1: but it starts with Woody Johnson and it goes down 753 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 1: from there. 754 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 2: That's the why. 755 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:23,400 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, he's been the one consonant throughout all the 756 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: change and ups and downs experienced. But I don't know. 757 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 1: I want to give him a chance. I want to 758 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: give Aaron Glenn a chance. He's a good guy, good coach. 759 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: You hope that this can be maybe the group that. 760 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 2: Turns it around for Jets fans and we'll get to 761 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 2: see Justin Fields versus Aaron Rodgers. When Rogers eventually signs 762 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 2: Week one, that'll be the game Week one Jets Steelers
