00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 1: up with in the show is about to be on display.

21

25
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 1: Com the way tire buying should be. So look, we

26
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: feel like there's so many NFL stories you can't cover

27
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,279
Speaker 1: them all. So in an effort to cover the ones

28
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: that you may have missed but we did not, we

29
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: came up with Tuesday Morning Quarterback.

30
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: Well, Tuesday, kid, this is Tuesday morning quarterback in the afternoon.

31
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: Mondays can be overwhelming. Tuesdays are getting to whatever we

32
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: didn't get to on Monday. Yeah, this is Tuesday morning

33
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 2: Quarterback in the afternoon.

34
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: Who don't want to go out back in the apter nod?

35
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: You know, Dan, I'm gonna give you a first crack

36
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: at this thing because I know how like you just

37
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: you're watching all this game Sunday, you know, you can

38
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 1: only talk about so many Then Monday we get to

39
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 1: the leads. Whatever there's you have so much that ends

40
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: up on the cutting room floor. What's the one story

41
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: that you most think we have missed collectively as national media,

42
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: and you want.

43
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 3: To get to well, I don't know if it's categorized

44
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 3: as that, but I do think that it needs to

45
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 3: be talked about because we look at the worst teams

46
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 3: in the NFL, as the Jets because they're zero to seven,

47
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 3: or the Titans because they're one and six and fired

48
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 3: their head coach. Something happened on Sunday as I was

49
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 3: watching the early window of games and saw that the

50
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 3: Raiders in the fourth quarter had just three first downs

51
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 3: against the Kansas City Chiefs in their game, and I

52
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 3: just thought, my goodness, that is that is absurd. Kansas

53
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:04,239
Speaker 3: City dominated that game. I saw clip yesterday of Gardner Minshew,

54
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 3: Chiefs backup quarterback taking a knee with two and a

55
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 3: half minutes left in that contest. Why why rub it

56
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 3: in even more? For Andy Reid and then Doug Last night,

57
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 3: when I was doing my I Want Your Flex podcast,

58
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 3: I went I looked at the team stats in that

59
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 3: game just for a second and saw, wait a second,

60
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 3: the Raiders ended up with only three first downs in

61
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 3: that game against Kansas City. Gino Smith had sixty seven

62
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 3: yards passing in that game. They held the ball for

63
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 3: a whopping seventeen minutes and fifty two seconds, completely outclassed

64
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 3: by the Chiefs. But the amazing thing is is I

65
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 3: think the Raiders are one of the three worst teams

66
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 3: in the National Football League and we just aren't talking

67
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 3: about them because of how bad the Jets have been

68
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 3: and the Titans firing their coach, And maybe we're clouded

69
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 3: by a Week one win against the Patriots, which I

70
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 3: think we now look back and say, how in the

71
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 3: world did that happen? But the Pete Carroll era to

72
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 3: try to turn things around is not happening. There is

73
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 3: no ground game with Chip Kelly as their offensive coordinator.

74
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 3: And now if you just wonder have the Raiders has

75
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 3: the game passed Pete Carroll and everybody by like, this

76
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 3: is not the start you would want if you're a

77
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 3: Silver and Black fan, and they do not have hope

78
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 3: on the way aside from brock Bauers hopefully getting healthy

79
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 3: for them.

80
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,239
Speaker 1: Besides that, the show.

81
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 3: Third West, worst point differential in the National Football League.

82
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: The Raiders commitment to excrement, commitment to extra.

83
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 4: Jay Stoo, I think that there is a.

84
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on, hold on, where's your signature? Line.

85
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 4: Okay, well, so hold on, hold on, allow me to

86
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 4: explain to the listener the evolution of my line. The

87
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 4: evolution of my line entails one thing. It entails a

88
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 4: fairly lengthy introduction from Doug. So when Doug starts to

89
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 4: introduce me, I cut him off. But Doug, knowing that

90
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 4: I have an introductory line, goes to me very fast

91
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 4: with these the least amount of words for me to

92
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 4: cut him off on. So now the fund's over. There's

93
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 4: no more fun. So I'm just gonna go along with

94
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 4: my Tuesday Morning quarterback topic.

95
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 2: Doug, I'll take it from here.

96
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 4: Sorry, I had to. Okay, anybody who chose Barkley in

97
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 4: the top five or six picks of their fantasy draft

98
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 4: knows exactly where I'm coming from. Saquon Barkley was a

99
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 4: player that probably won you your fantasy league last season.

100
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 4: Remember he was I think like a second round pick.

101
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 4: Joel Shane chose to let him go to the Eagles

102
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 4: and all that, and became the offensive Player of the

103
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 4: Year and everything else. The stats this year through seven

104
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 4: weeks are astounding, and we're talking about, if you want

105
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 4: to give it contrast, we're talking about a year where

106
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 4: the familiar running backs are having the good seasons. Running back, yeah,

107
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 4: Christian McCaffery. We just saw Jami Gibbs last night. Last

108
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 4: night was awesome, James Cook, Jon Robinson dependable. And then

109
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 4: you throw in randoms like Rico Dowdell and Javonte Williams.

110
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: What's the running back yet? Did you say Swift? I'm sorry.

111
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: With the Bears, he had like one hundred and twenty

112
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: seven yards rushing.

113
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 4: DeAndre Swift is another yeah, But for whatever reason, Saquon

114
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 4: Barkley is not has not joined that collection of running

115
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 4: backs having amazing seasons. You could put the I guess

116
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 4: to blame it. Kevin Patullo. He's the new offensive coordinator

117
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 4: for the Eagles.

118
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: Now listen, hold on, I'm I'm I hate interrupt, but

119
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna interrupt.

120
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 4: Hold on, hold on.

121
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: Do you remember the discussion everyone had. We had a

122
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: little different discussion on the running backs, and at the

123
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: end of the year last year, like, well, clearly the

124
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 1: owners were wrong and these guys are worth it. And

125
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: my whole point was the argument wasn't over paying guys

126
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: for a year. It wasn't really over paying guys for

127
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: two years. It was how much you would pay them

128
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: and for how long. The fight for Saquon Barkley was

129
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: over a second and a third year guaranteed at what amount?

130
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 1: And the Eagles redid his deal in the offseason. And

131
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: now here we are in the second year of what

132
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: would have been a three year deal and he's fallen off.

133
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: That's the problem. It's really hard to be really consistent

134
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: once you get into your late twenties in the NFL. Sorry,

135
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 1: go ahead, Jameson.

136
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 4: But I would say that the old cliche of the

137
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 4: squeaky wheel the oil.

138
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so much.

139
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 4: Real estate, so much oxigen has been taken up over

140
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 4: AJ Brown and his complaints. How do we get aj involved?

141
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 4: And Saquan has been silent the entire time. He's been

142
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 4: a supportive, good teammate. He's the one after games that

143
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 4: talks about winning is all that matters. And just to

144
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 4: give the listener just kind of a look see of

145
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 4: how bad has it been. Of the twenty four running

146
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 4: backs who have at least seventy five carries this season,

147
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 4: Barkley ranks dead last three point three yards of carry.

148
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 4: Barkley averaged five point eight yards of carry just a

149
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,199
Speaker 4: year ago. Last year, he ran for one hundred and

150
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 4: twenty five yards a game this year fifty two. So

151
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 4: if there is an indictment on this offense, I know

152
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 4: AJ Brown gets a lot of the oxygen. Kevin Patulo

153
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 4: needs to find a way to get Saquon Barkley loose,

154
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 4: because I would disagree with Doug on this. It's only

155
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 4: been a year. I don't think that there's been a

156
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:02,559
Speaker 4: massive degrading of talent or speed in just a year.

157
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 4: Something's going on in this offense that isn't just Aj

158
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 4: Brown Oriental.

159
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 3: That is correct. Their offensive line is banged up, played

160
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 3: without Cam Jurggens their center. There's also the Jalen Hurts

161
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 3: question as well, And if I'm a defense and I'm

162
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 3: trying to key on something, I'm keying on Saquon Barkley.

163
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 3: Also from a fantasy football perspective, which I think we

164
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,520
Speaker 3: all have. Jalen Hurts also will take away carry's at

165
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 3: the goal line. So if Saquon isn't breaking away for

166
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 3: eighteen and twenty and fifty yard touchdown runs like he

167
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 3: did last season, then he's not going to be as

168
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 3: effective in the stat column or for your fantasy team.

169
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 3: And he also hasn't been that effective as a receiver

170
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 3: out of the backfield. So it's been a variety of

171
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 3: things that have caused to decline to Saquon Barkley. Then

172
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 3: I don't even think that we can necessarily pin on

173
00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 3: him as being the reason.

174
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 5: Sam Well, I just wanted to add on that the

175
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,679
Speaker 5: the buzzards of the NFL media have moved on from

176
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 5: the passing game of the Eagles to the running game

177
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 5: the Eagles, and every every week there's some kind of

178
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 5: issue and whether they win or lose. But now I

179
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 5: understand what you guys are saying. Their offense is dysfunctional,

180
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 5: and so it's one week, it's something works one week

181
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 5: or all the weeks. I guess the running game in

182
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 5: Saquon Barkley don't work. I rolled these drops in. Can

183
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 5: I just say something because I think that's an interesting point.

184
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 5: Is we sit there and we complain about that your

185
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 5: whole deal at Jason's point of AJ Brown's taking up

186
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 5: so much error in the room and Jalen Hurts and

187
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 5: how we look at him as a quarterback. Is he

188
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,239
Speaker 5: a top five quarterback?

189
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 3: Like they won the Super Bowl because of Saquon, Like

190
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 3: that's the reason why in their offensive line, But last

191
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 3: week against Minnesota. Guess what, both DeVante Smith and aj

192
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 3: Brown over one hundred yards huge games, and you would

193
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 3: think that everything is solved. But to Jason's point, it's

194
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 3: not solved. And now we're just distracted because guess what,

195
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 3: Brandon Graham's coming out of retirement. So when we're talking

196
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 3: about the Eagles, it feels like we're grabbing all of

197
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 3: the wrong points and it should just be like, get

198
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 3: Saquon on track, get your offensive line healthy, and then

199
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 3: maybe you can try to repeat, Sorry, Sam, go.

200
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 1: Ahead, go ahead, Sammy jf some else.

201
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 5: No, I had my own thing, but no, I mean, yeah, well,

202
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 5: just a pivot here. I rolled these drops in after

203
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 5: the Indiana fever really pushed the Las Vegas Aces, who

204
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 5: eventually won the WNB Championship, pushed them to overtime in

205
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 5: Game five of the semi finals. I rolled these drops

206
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 5: in because the Indian nfere would just not go away.

207
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 5: These are from a couple of my favorite movies, Batman

208
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 5: Forever and Austin Powers Too. Why Won't You Die Now?

209
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 5: I'm not wishing violence on anyone here. This is just figurative,

210
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 5: a fun little exercise here. The New England Patriots dominated

211
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 5: the NFL for twenty years, and to quote two face,

212
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 5: why won't you go away? Okay? I often think that

213
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 5: the gods, the cosmos of sports, the gods of deciding

214
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 5: who wins and who loses and who has long you know, dynasties,

215
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 5: that lord works in mysterious ways. I don't understand it,

216
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 5: because the Patriots dominated the NFL for twenty years, and

217
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 5: they were only really down for three seasons, and now

218
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 5: they're back with a head coach who has that twenty

219
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 5: year run DNA woven into his entire structure of how

220
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 5: he does things. And now it looks like the Patriots

221
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 5: are back. Okay, if you have it, twenty years of

222
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 5: dominating and winning what six Super Bowl titles? A lot

223
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 5: of fans, especially fans of really downtrodden organizations like the

224
00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 5: Browns or the Bills, they say, well, why not us?

225
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 5: It's our time? And now it looks like the Bill's

226
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 5: window is closing because the Patriots are back. They're back

227
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 5: on top in the AFC East, and you just have

228
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,959
Speaker 5: to wonder why is it. It's because of good ownership.

229
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 5: As long as Robert Craft is around, it seems like

230
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 5: the Patriots are going to be competitive, but.

231
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: You're really you're giving, You're giving Craft.

232
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 5: I think I think ownership matters a lot. We were

233
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 5: talked about the Eagles. Jeffrey Lowie, I think is one

234
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 5: of the best owners in sports. I think if your

235
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 5: your your owners are really invested and they're really you know,

236
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 5: connected with the team, that they're gonna find reasons and

237
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 5: ways to get your team back on top.

238
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: And I'm help you out here. Sure owners should just

239
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 1: need to hire good people.

240
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 5: Well but yeah, that's not but that that's hard.

241
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: Like like Craft doesn't have anything to do with football,

242
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: and you know, they hired a guy who was completely

243
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,079
Speaker 1: an app last year and you know, with the same quarterback.

244
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: They they they they managed to kind of figure it

245
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: out that.

246
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 3: Though. You know, I will say, the way that Craft

247
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 3: is massaged their down years, though, is really that impressive.

248
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 4: Very impressive.

249
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: Yes, he's been an adult about those massages. Yes.

250
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 5: So the Patriots, I mean, we don't know if they're

251
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 5: going to go on and win the Super Bowl or

252
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 5: what what Mike Rabel's coaching ten year is going to

253
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 5: look like in you know, five seven years.

254
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 1: Their quarterback and they got they're good.

255
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 5: They got a dude and you know, you just you're like,

256
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 5: you know, I will win two Rose Bulls in nineteen fifties,

257
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 5: and then they had twenty years of darkness.

258
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 3: That's the suffering I'm talking about.

259
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 4: And it's not fair. It's not fair that the Patriots are.

260
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 2: Back on top.

261
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 3: I think it's a great point.

262
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 5: Good morning, Hawaii, it's ten fifteen in the morning.

263
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 3: I'll say this. I actually think that they remind me

264
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 3: of when the Yankees when Aaron Judge was a rookie

265
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 3: and you're like, oh, well that could this be a

266
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 3: likable Yankees team? And then like that got over with

267
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 3: really quick. I think that this is a likable Patriots team,

268
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 3: but if they continue to win, that'll probably end up

269
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 3: ending pretty quickly.

270
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: Why Won't You Die? I love that movie? Sam. Do

271
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: you know how much I like the Austin Powers movies?

272
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 6: And not sure I've.

273
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 5: Gathered you do like him because I play you know,

274
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 5: their his drops pretty frequently and youays seem to respond.

275
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 5: So we talk about Austin Powers the franchise quite a

276
00:14:59,200 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 5: bit on this show.

277
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna there's two quarterbacks and they played last night

278
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: and it was a super super ugly game. But I

279
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: don't want to lose sight of of two things. The Texans,

280
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: there's a bunch of stuff work. You know, you have

281
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: a coach who a couple of years ago, I felt like, man,

282
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 1: they found their coat, they found their guy, like he's

283
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: their rable, played their linebacker really good, came from San Francisco,

284
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: immediately made the playoffs. And then you have this quarterback

285
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 1: in CJ. Stroud, who great year at Ohio State. But

286
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: there's some people myself include like is he that good

287
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: or is it they're just so much better than everybody

288
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: they're playing. He was just okay last year and he

289
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: was probably below average last night. Then they got Nick Chubb,

290
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: who's like at twenty nine, I don't know if he's

291
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 1: rushed for more than seventy yards in the game. He

292
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: hasn't broken one hundred in the game. So it's like

293
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 1: all these three things happening where sophomore is slump from

294
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: Stroud is kind of seemingly extended a little bit. There's

295
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: just not the same something from the coaching staff. And

296
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: then you know you're built around this running game and

297
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb, and Nick Chubb is a shell of his

298
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: former self. No, the Texans being mid maybe hasn't been

299
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: discussed enough. And then the other side. Look again, it

300
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: was an ugly football game, ugly ugly. But Sam Donald's

301
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: team is five and two, and for a guy that

302
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 1: has been written off much like his predecessor in Seattle,

303
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: he hadn't written back then, right back. Everyone knows that

304
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: me and uh Daniel Jeremiah and to a slightly lesser extent,

305
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 1: Cowherd huge, Sam Donald fans huge, still holding stock, and

306
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: he's not the star that his stats said he was

307
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,239
Speaker 1: last But he's definitely not a bum, definitely not a bust.

308
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 1: And I think he's plenty good enough to get that

309
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: team to the playoffs. Dan, do you disagree?

310
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 3: I think there'll be a playoff team. I just thought

311
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 3: there were Sam Darnold moments that happened in last night's game.

312
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 3: They do happen a lot worried about.

313
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, they do happen there. It is a real thing,

314
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,239
Speaker 1: and you're you're you're right to say it. I think

315
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:23,679
Speaker 1: he's a better version of what he used to be,

316
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: but he still does regress on some level. That is

317
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:26,920

Speaker 1: the Lebron Lakers. You may have read excerpts of the book,

326
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: which I think most notably I was reading The Ringer.

327
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,239
Speaker 1: They had excerpt and it was over Russell Westbrook and

328
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,959
Speaker 1: what broke down in their relationship. Your own joins us

329
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: now on the Doug Gottlieb Show on Fox Sports Radio.

330
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:10,840
Speaker 1: Good to catch up with your own. Thanks so much

331
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: for your time. Hey Doug, when did you When did

332
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,959
Speaker 1: when's the book start? Like? What is in the chronological

333
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,679
Speaker 1: was it in terms of Lebron before he got to

334
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: the Lakers, when he arrived the Lakers? Where where do

335
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:25,919
Speaker 1: we begin this story?

336
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:26,920
Speaker 2: Yeah?

337
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,159
Speaker 6: We begin? And thanks for having me on the way

338
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 6: I kind of approached it is. I don't think you

339
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 6: can tell the story of Lebron and his tenure of

340
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,919
Speaker 6: the Lakers and what that meant for the team and

341
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 6: specifically Genibus to have a star without telling the history

342
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 6: and story of the Bus family. So, I mean, you

343
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 6: can spend five books just on the Bus family. But

344
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 6: we kind of start with Jerry Buss and speed through

345
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 6: that and the Lakers in the end of the Colbiero

346
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 6: where things were kind of down and the internal drama

347
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,880
Speaker 6: with the Bus family and how the team was desperate

348
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 6: forty lifeline really and Lebron became back.

349
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 1: There's always this thing with Lebron where when he comes in,

350
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: he tries to take over, right, And it was it

351
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: was pat Riley even said like, hey, that was why

352
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: they were happy, supposedly happy to be out of Lebron business.

353
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 1: Was there any discussion about Rich Paul, about their involvement,

354
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: about the decision making within the organization when he came

355
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: aboard when they were pursuing Lebron via free agency?

356
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 6: I mean, so in free agency, the Lakers, but Jeanie

357
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 6: and the Bus family, they were all they rolled out

358
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 6: the red carpet for Clutch and Lebron. But that's very much.

359
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 6: That was very much how Genie Buss was raised in

360
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 6: terms of how to how to run a basketball gap.

361
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 8: Right.

362
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 6: Her father was about stars and we cater to our

363
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 6: stars and it's Hollywood, right, And this is how it goes.

364
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 6: So they very much said that. I mean, it's a

365
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 6: great story. People kind of probably forgot it. But Contagious

366
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 6: Caldwell Pulp, the wig player, he's a Clutch client. He's

367
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,400
Speaker 6: been the year before Lebron gets there, and he has

368
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 6: to serve basically in a halfway house the time for

369
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 6: I'll remember this, you are I forget what was I

370
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 6: don't want to be specific here, Basically the judge, they

371
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 6: forget away for him to play home games right with

372
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 6: the Lakers. Uh and and I practice and just go

373
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 6: sleep somewhere else in the facility in the halfway house

374
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 6: and the and like I think most teams they probably

375
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 6: would not be okay with this, but the Lakers were

376
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,159
Speaker 6: very much they want to Clutch to be happy that.

377
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 6: The interesting part though is after they got him, after

378
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 6: they got Lebron like and it's one of the things

379
00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 6: that was pretty surprising to me is like unpacked the reporting,

380
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 6: the idea that Clutch was running things. I think that

381
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 6: was an overstatement. I mean, you see it the year

382
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 6: two after Luke Waltins fired, Lebron wants the Lakers to

383
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 6: hire TYLERU Tyler would be a perfect candidate for them

384
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 6: at that point, you know, former Laker, which matters to them.

385
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 6: He gets along with Lebron, you know, the coaching obviously

386
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 6: a very good coach, and Lebron makes it very clear

387
00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 6: and he wants TYLERU and the Lakers just wouldn't do

388
00:20:58,800 --> 00:20:59,959
Speaker 6: it because they didn't want to give him a con

389
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 6: track that was they didn't want to pay him what

390
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 6: Tyler's bony should get paid and Lebron you know that

391
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 6: the year two and you know, if Lebron was getting

392
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:08,719
Speaker 6: the thing he wanted, that would have been perfect example

393
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 6: of they would have just thought him instead instead of

394
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 6: Frank Vogel.

395
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's crazy. I remember it was a it was

396
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: a three year deal and he won a four year

397
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: deal and the money wasn't huge, and then Vogel took it.

398
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 1: Tyler got the deal with the Clippers and the rest,

399
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 1: as they say, is history. What about Westbrook right the

400
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: reporting previous to year book? Okay, Iron white'sman joining us

401
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:32,800
Speaker 1: here in the doug Outleap Show. He has written a

402
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: new book that's out and it's the Lakers. It's about

403
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: the Lakers and Lebron James. The book is titled Tanking

404
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: to the Top, a Hollywood ending the Lakers and the

405
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,640
Speaker 1: drama of the dreams and the drama of the Lebron Lakers.

406
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: What about the Westbrook and how they ultimately traded for him,

407
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 1: because again what was reported was whether it was Buddy Healed,

408
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:03,439
Speaker 1: Damar DeRozan, there were others that the front office supposedly wanted,

409
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: but it was Lebron James and Anthony Davis that honed

410
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 1: in on Russell Westbrook. What's the reality based upon your

411
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 1: reporting and that you've been able to write down, So.

412
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 6: The reporter is the reality is they all are part

413
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 6: of it, and they all had a hand in it,

414
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,239
Speaker 6: and then they're all trying to blame each other, right,

415
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 6: that's the CLDR version, Like they basically all came at

416
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 6: it from their own perspective. So after that season, and it's,

417
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 6: by the way, the part and it's interesting and I

418
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 6: think it gets the mistake. The mistake they made, and

419
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,399
Speaker 6: I believe was so they have the bubble year and

420
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 6: they win, and the next year they start off really well, strongly.

421
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 6: They have Shooter and Marcus foul and they start off

422
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 6: stronger than they fall apart. And I think in hindsight,

423
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 6: we've all learned that the act the harder, crazier year

424
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 6: in the NBA was the year after the bubble, right

425
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 6: when games were back in their arenos. But we had

426
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 6: the season like the Lakers had seventy one days between

427
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 6: the end of their championship and the start of the

428
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 6: next season. And I was the year janis one walking.

429
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 6: The things were crazy, guys in and out for COVID

430
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 6: just the season was nuts and the Lakers losing the

431
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 6: first round with a D and Lebron but was getting hurt.

432
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 6: And the mistake was they react to that. They sort

433
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 6: of panic and react. I feel like they have to

434
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 6: and this is Lebron at the front office, right, this

435
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 6: what's happening. They all react instead of saying, you know what,

436
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 6: there was we had no shot. Seventy one days between

437
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 6: the seasons, like we were never gonna win. They decided

438
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 6: they have to go get a third star. Polinka in

439
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 6: the front office want a third star. Lebron wants to

440
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 6: as someone else. They want someone who could help maybe

441
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 6: carry some of the offense the juice. So Lebron holds

442
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 6: up him. Anthony Davis and Jared Dudley start going through

443
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 6: names and Bradley Beals and mar the Rozen are on

444
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,719
Speaker 6: the list Westbrook too. They reach out to Westbrook at

445
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 6: the same time Polinka was in the off front office

446
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 6: talking about how much he wanted a third Scar and

447
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 6: you know the Nets like, let's talk look the Nets

448
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 6: Big three model, we have to beat them, and the

449
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 6: Lakers actually have. So Lebron's talking to Westbrook, the Lakers

450
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 6: start back channeling, talking to Westbrook's agent, and so it's

451
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 6: they're all approaching it from different angles and they end

452
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 6: up getting the trade, goes through it and it gets

453
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 6: completed at an ownership level. Genie Bus ends up executing

454
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 6: it with uh, with the Wizard's owner at that level

455
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 6: to kind of go through some good trade compensation. And

456
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,679
Speaker 6: then it all goes horribly and they all start blaming

457
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 6: each other and telling, you know, say, no they brought

458
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 6: to us, No, they brought it in to us. So

459
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 6: it's that it's just to me, it's kind of telling.

460
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 6: It's kind of emblematic of the whole tenure, in the

461
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 6: whole partnership.

462
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

463
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 2: Uh.

464
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: The the excerpt I read was about Westbrook basically saying

465
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 1: the Bronze of phony right that right the the the

466
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:30,919
Speaker 1: Malcolm X book, what's your favorite part? So many the

467
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 1: Godfather's my favorite movie. What's your favorite line?

468
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 8: Oh?

469
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: So many? You know, all of those things which we

470
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: laugh about the media, and but it is that that's

471
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 1: a real thing in league circles, or at least with

472
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 1: with Westbrook and how we've used him.

473
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 6: For sure. But it was so funny though, because to

474
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 6: me it's funny so seeing that yesterday. So it's a

475
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 6: great story. And you know, the short version is Lebron

476
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,119
Speaker 6: walks out before the Lakers are gonna have Will Smith

477
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 6: come speak to the group because they bring in the

478
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 6: famous people do that, and Lebron walks out out he

479
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:01,880
Speaker 6: doesn't want to be there. He ends up being pulled

480
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 6: back in by Darwin Ham. And then what Wilson has

481
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 6: done and Lebron asks a million questions, is that as

482
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 6: it's happening, Westbrooki is growing furious just watching it and

483
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 6: later says, so a teammate, I hate that takes stuff.

484
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,959
Speaker 6: I I can't stand it right. And there's a picture

485
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 6: you could see a picture of the Lakers posted the

486
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 6: team picture that day of Westbrook of the whole team

487
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 6: with Will Smith, and you can see westbrook'scowling there, just angry,

488
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 6: and he's right the part I found fascinating. And you know,

489
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,880
Speaker 6: I'm in my mentions yesterday because I'm looking, because I'm vain,

490
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 6: obviously I'm gonna check all my mentions and most of

491
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 6: the most of the commentary is like, yeah, team Ross,

492
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 6: go get him Lebronz of phony, Team Ross and you can.

493
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:37,719
Speaker 6: I have no issue with that, And there's plenty of

494
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 6: examples like that. The thing that's wild is the Westbrook

495
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 6: Lakers partnership did not fail because Lebron's a phony. It

496
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 6: failed because Russ played awfully. It was a horrible fit

497
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 6: and and showed no willingness to even attempt to adapt, right.

498
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 6: And it's just to me, it's telling that, for whatever

499
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 6: reason is this Lebron, a lot of fans don't not

500
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 6: only do not connect with him, but they're bothered by him,

501
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 6: and it's hard to fully explain why. And that to me,

502
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 6: it was just interesting seeing that yesterday that like I ad.

503
00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: No Jern, here's what we've We've talked about this a

504
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 1: lot on the show, and Jason, he's lived in Los

505
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 1: Angeles whole life, right, I grew up in southern California.

506
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,199
Speaker 1: So my feeling towards Lebron and how Lakers fancy one.

507
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: It's hard because he wasn't always a rival. He wasn't

508
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: really a rival to Kobe okay, but he was a

509
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:37,399
Speaker 1: star that took up attention from Kobe, and for whatever reason,

510
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: Laker fans view him as a kind of arrival and

511
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: now we got to cheer from. It's a lot like

512
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 1: when the Chargers came to town and they're playing in Carson, Like,

513
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: wait a second, Carson is Raider territory and now the

514
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: Rivals like our home team. That doesn't make sense. That's

515
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: a little bit of it. And I've just always felt

516
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:57,239
Speaker 1: like a lot of the other things he's done, he

517
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 1: was it was one of his first couple of years

518
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: with the Lakers. You know, he get hurt. Then he

519
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,400
Speaker 1: had the wine. Nobody does that when he's on the bench.

520
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 1: There was the time when they had the All Star

521
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 1: Game in Cleveland and he openly talked about going back

522
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 1: to Cleveland to end his careers. Like you're a Laker,

523
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: you don't do No one doesn't want to end their

524
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: career with the Lakers. And and so here's how we

525
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 1: worded it. He plays for the Lakers. It's gonna be

526
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 1: the what the second longest tenure because the combined tenures

527
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: of Cleveland. But no one who's a true Laker fan

528
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: views him as a Laker. He's simply a guy who

529
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 1: played for the Lakers. Does that make sense?

530
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 6: You know it's not. I completely agree. And by the

531
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,439
Speaker 6: way we in the book I write about the Kobe

532
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,119
Speaker 6: Lebron's that kind of me like that there was always

533
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 6: It's not only that he was a challenger. They approached

534
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 6: they approached everything completely differently. So Kobe wasn't leaking and

535
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 6: Kobe didn't understand Lebron like that, Like Kobe wouldn't wind

536
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 6: up with friends Lebron. Does you know Kobe was all

537
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 6: enemies Lebron's buddies, guys on their teams. Lebron has interest

538
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,680
Speaker 6: outside of the basket. Both doesn't mean he takes basketball.

539
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 6: You know, you can't do what he's done for longevity

540
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 6: and not take it seriously. But Kobe was all about basketball,

541
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 6: even the approach on the court, like you know, Kobe

542
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 6: will shoot over three guys, Lebron passed the open guy,

543
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 6: right and even with a Nike I read about this,

544
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 6: they kind of they there was different wings, right, like

545
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:16,800
Speaker 6: if they hung out with different people, were operated by

546
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,719
Speaker 6: different people. So one hundred percent you saw that when

547
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 6: Lebron came and Lakers fans are defacing murals. It's just

548
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 6: so interesting and weird. And the part that what Lebron

549
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 6: was robbed of, the fact that the twenty twenty title

550
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 6: happened in the bubble, would out fans and then there's

551
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 6: no parade. That would change everything because that's an emotional

552
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 6: connection point that could form things and that that did

553
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 6: not exist, and that just and that's where you're right, right,

554
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 6: So the the fact that his high point of the

555
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 6: franchise happened literally in a bubble, it changes history on

556
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 6: that and I do, yeah, it'd be interesting sliding doors

557
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 6: moment if it was like if that's if he went

558
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 6: the title in front of fans and it's a parade,

559
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 6: and I wonder if things are different.

560
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: After best guess is this Lebron's last year?

561
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 6: So my answer is to this, I don't know, but

562
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 6: I genuinely don't think he knows, right. I think that's

563
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 6: what we're kind of seeing now where he's trying to

564
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 6: figure out what he wants to do next. We've seen

565
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 6: it with the contract stuff, and he's clearly not happy

566
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 6: that he's on an expiring contract, and I feel like

567
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 6: he feels a little boxed in because he's gonna want

568
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 6: to do a farewell tour, but he's not going to

569
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 6: do it for some random team, and he wants to

570
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 6: get paid, right. He's big on I don't take pay

571
00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 6: cuts anymore. I think he thinks he represents the player

572
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 6: for us like that. So if it comes down to

573
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 6: the Lakers and Caves, those are, to me are the

574
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 6: only two teams I could see him playing for. And

575
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 6: I genuinely I thought, honestly, I had not just of

576
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 6: the book coming out, and it would have been good

577
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 6: for me. I think, like I thought this was going

578
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 6: to be it. I really did, But I also assumed that,

579
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 6: and I could be wrong. I always assumed that he

580
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 6: would announce his final season before the season started, right

581
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 6: like they would just be a giant farewell tour like that.

582
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 6: And the fact that he hasn't done that yet makes

583
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 6: me think we're getting another year at least. But yeah,

584
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 6: that's my I don't know. I don't know.

585
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,680

Speaker 3: just a second. O. Remember on Sunday when Sean Payton

608
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 3: head Go to the Broncos said this about having to

609
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 3: face Jackson Darts instead of well, Russell Wilson.

610
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 8: You know they found a little spark with that quarterback.

611
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 8: I was talking to John Mayor not too long ago,

612
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 8: and I said, we were hoping that that change would

613
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 8: have happened long long after our game Well.

614
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: Bird Bird, because Russell Wilson was the start in Wait.

615
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson used to be the start in Denver for

616
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 1: Sean Payton to tell or info.

617
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson has responded via social media within the last

618
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 3: ten minutes, posting on x quote classless but not surprised.

619
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 3: Didn't realize you're still bounty hunting fifteen plus years later

620
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 3: through the media. Let's ride in another.

621
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 1: Emoji, Wait he did let's.

622
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 3: Ride hashtag Let's ride.

623
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 1: You know what that makes me think? It makes me

624
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: think of Return of the Jedi, Return of the Jedi.

625
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: Somebody asked the question, why does it make your return?

626
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 3: Why don't you tell us, Doug, why does it remind

627
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 3: you of Return of the Jedi?

628
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: Because the most famous scene in Return of the Jedi

629
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 1: is when Luke takes Darth's mask off, and though most

630
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: of it is mechanical, there still is his father, a

631
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 1: person inside there's a bunch of machines. But so the

632
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: point is that Russell Wilson is a machine. He is

633
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 1: a but deep inside there there is still a person.

634
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: And he goes and he actually makes fun of himself

635
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: when he does hashtag let's ride.

636
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 7: Well more than that, mister, mister, mister, I.

637
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 1: Don't have I don't have a Broncos Country Let's ride.

638
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 3: Yeah we do somewhere. But I do want to point

639
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 3: out that it took Russell Wilson almost forty eight hours

640
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 3: to come up with his comeback. Like I understand you

641
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 3: wouldn't hear it right after the game. We talked about

642
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 3: it yesterday, and I'll never forget the visual of Sean

643
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 3: Payton verbally undressing Russell Wilson on the sideline and Wilson

644
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 3: not doing anything about it, just taking it in. And

645
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 3: we've seen shots of bow Nicks and Sean Payton going

646
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 3: at it on the sideline. And so while Russ feels

647
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 3: that he may have got him back with this one,

648
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 3: it's Tuesday.

649
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: This was Sunday, and he says, like George with jerkstore line,

650
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: can't you can't. I can't sit on it if you

651
00:33:58,280 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 1: had the jerk store line, you gotta go right with it.

652
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 1: Let's run.

653
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 3: You're one of their best sellers. Uh, we all know

654
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 3: Constanza's next line. All right. Speaking of the Jets, it

655
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 3: started out today with Woody Johnson saying this about Aaron

656
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 3: glenn Is, head coach, and then their quarterback justin fields.

657
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 9: It looks like he's turning around parts of it. You know,

658
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 9: it's hard when you have a quarterback with you know,

659
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,839
Speaker 9: with a rating that we've got, you know is I mean,

660
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,760
Speaker 9: he has the ability, but something just is not driving.

661
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 9: But if you look at any any head coach or

662
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,120
Speaker 9: a quarterback like that, you're going to see similar results

663
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,920
Speaker 9: if you across the league. You have to play consistently

664
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 9: at that position, and that's what we're going to try

665
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 9: to do. But we can just complete a pass, it

666
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 9: would look good. You know, you got to you got

667
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 9: to convince them that you could do something.

668
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: If we could just complete a pass. He didn't say,

669
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,280
Speaker 1: you know, sixty percent of our passes, longer passes, shorter passes.

670
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 1: He said, if we could just complete a pass, it,

671
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 1: you know, they might actually take you seriously. Now.

672
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 3: On Sunday, they traveled to Cincinnati to face the Bengals

673
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,279
Speaker 3: and ESPN is reporting that the Jets will make a

674
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 3: quarterback change as Tarrod Taylor would start in place of

675
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 3: Justin Field's fields went six to twelve for forty six

676
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 3: yards and that loss to the Panthers. Taylor came in

677
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 3: when ten to twenty two for one hundred and twenty

678
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 3: six yards was picked off twice.

679
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I still, that's just such an indictment.

680
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 1: And the worst part is, like you said to start

681
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 1: the show, where Okay, so you love Aaron Glenn and

682
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna empower him to pick the next quarterback, whereas

683
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: he picked this quarterback and he stinks. I don't know,

684
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:47,919
Speaker 1: all right.

685
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 3: According to ben Online, they have tracked GEO tagged ex

686
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:56,319

691
00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 3: Seven Ruth states say show Hey Otani is the greatest

692
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 3: of all time, while Willie Mays, Hank, Aaron Barry, Bonds,

693
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 3: and Ted Williams also received votes among states of being

694
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 3: the greatest of all time, but Babe Ruth. Almost half

695
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:37,359
Speaker 3: of the states across the United States, according to geotract

Speaker 3: of all time.

698
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,879
Speaker 1: If that's a fight, you're not going to be able

699
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,839
Speaker 1: to win, right, Like, if you're no matter what show

Speaker 1: more home runs than all every team in Major League

702
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 1: Baseball except for three and whatever. If shoe Otani stays healthy,

703
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 1: I just he's the top ten pitch, he's top ten hitter.

704
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 1: It's like little league stuff. He's that much better than

705
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,839
Speaker 1: the opposition. He's the best I've ever seen. And that's

706
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: the press. May get out there in press.
