Everyone got better? Of course, 13 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: everyone drafted the player they wanted to the position they needed. 14 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 2: And hope is restore to your favorite franchise. And also 15 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 2: the NBA Playoffs are here, so. 16 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,760 Speaker 1: We'll hope you take your tongue which is firmly planted 17 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: in your cheek away from there right now, because I 18 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: would love to hear a general manager come out and say, 19 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: you know, I'm really wasn't the please with the with 20 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: the draft, But they'll never say that. Everybody's loving it. 21 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: Everybody thinks data tremendous draft. 22 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 2: Right, of course they did. And I think for the 23 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 2: most part, teams, you know, they got what they needed 24 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 2: to get out of it. You know that that's always 25 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 2: the way it is. Now the question is, you know, 26 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 2: there's gonna be a bust here and there. There's going 27 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 2: to be a team that just didn't do as well, 28 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 2: you know. Hindsight, I would imagine teams are like, yeah, 29 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 2: maybe you should have taken that guy, but you only 30 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 2: they did the work to put the draft boards together 31 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 2: and they're happy about the additions they made. But it's 32 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: very clear. I think that there are teams that are 33 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,559 Speaker 2: much better at th other teams are, and it shows 34 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: in some of the decisions that the teams make on 35 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 2: some of their. 36 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: Personnel, no doubt about that. I have to ask, did 37 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: you watch the entire draft all three days? 38 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 2: I watched Day one, Day two I watched. I So 39 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: Day two was Friday night, I watched, so I did 40 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: radio Friday night, my normal radio slot front and as 41 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 2: I watched Wall, I was doing radio. I did not 42 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 2: watch after I was done with radio, so I didn't 43 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 2: watch the end of the third round. Basically, I paid 44 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 2: attention to who was drafted on my phone. And then 45 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 2: yesterday I was on this radio with Steve Hartman at 46 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 2: the beginning uc ME the middle of the sixth and 47 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: seventh round, so that's what I watched. I was out 48 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 2: my kids baseball for the fourth and fifth round. I 49 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,399 Speaker 2: wasn't to get home cinemata television watching the draft. AFT. Look, 50 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: I've made it very clear about kind of where I'm 51 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: at with the draft. So you know, when when I 52 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 2: was younger and I sort of knew more of the players, 53 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 2: like personally, I was more invested in the back half 54 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 2: of the draft. And now because of all the jobs 55 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 2: that I have covered the Pac twelve conference and you know, 56 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: cover the NFL for Fox Sports, and I do a 57 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 2: lot of gambling for them, and I have this job 58 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 2: and I have other things I do my podcast, I 59 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: have a light, my kids, this is my wife. Look, 60 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 2: I have things to do. I know the top fifty 61 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 2: players pretty well right for the draft. I very prepare 62 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: for the first round for probably most of the second 63 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 2: round for most of the offensive linemen. But like went 64 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 2: against the fourth round Andy, I don't know the cornerback 65 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 2: drafted from Troy, Okay. So like, so I'm not gonna 66 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: pay attention now. Will I read all the draft recaps? Absolutely? 67 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 2: Why familiar rise myself with rosters by time training camp starts. Yes, 68 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 2: I will, But I can't sit by the television and 69 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,119 Speaker 2: watch Steven Rounds not knowing who most of the guys 70 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: are drafted after the second day. 71 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: I'm with you exactly, but I tell you what I 72 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: learned one thing by watching I'd say maybe forty percent 73 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: of the draft. All right? That the top three sports 74 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: in America today after watching this draft are as follows. 75 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: The NFL's number one. College football is number two, and 76 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: the NFL offseason is number three. Gotta be that's it. 77 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: I mean, forget about baseball, forget about soccer, NBA, NHL, 78 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: that's it. Because when I saw that crowd at Union 79 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: Station on TV in Kansas City, I scratched MYA are 80 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: these people? I mean, did they work? Are there? Are 81 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: they a mind? I mean, really traveling to Kansas City 82 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: for to watch a kid walk on the stage? 83 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 2: Hat Well, to be fair, there was a lot of 84 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 2: red in that crowd. 85 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: It was. 86 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 2: It was a fair amount of Chiefs fans, and Chiefs 87 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: fans are very passionate fans, and and you know, Kansas City, 88 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 2: there's not always as much to do as as other places. 89 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 2: I do. I do wonder. I have to think that 90 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: there was I remember someone was drafted by the Colts. 91 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 2: It was Anthony Richardson, and there was just like a 92 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: giant following of Colts fans right in the front. 93 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: Row and right and they had the cheerleaders. 94 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. I have to imagine they just pay some fans 95 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 2: to come right like they like say, is like just 96 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: you know, I don't know if they run a local 97 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 2: contest in Indianapolis and they that has to be something 98 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 2: specifically set up, because I don't you're just not going 99 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 2: to get twelve fans to show up in Indianapolis to 100 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 2: the draft. That feels very cordiyat. But there's a lot 101 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 2: of red there, a lot of Chiefs fans. They're very 102 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 2: passionate football fans, and they're probably like, oh draft, I 103 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 2: mean the drafts in Detroit next year. I imagine it's 104 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 2: a cool if it was in Charlotte, where I live. 105 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 2: You know, I don't think I would take my kids 106 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 2: down there and maybe for a day. I would take 107 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 2: my kids down there and be like, hey guys, this 108 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,799 Speaker 2: is the NFL Draft. I don't know if I would 109 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 2: do that, but I think there's excitement. And again, the 110 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 2: reason why the draft in the NFL offseason is so 111 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 2: such an important part of the sports news and while 112 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 2: we cover it the way we do is the idea 113 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: of hope. Andy, Right, It's it's the sport that gives 114 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 2: you the most hope if you're a fan, because baseball 115 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 2: is a month and okay, how many baseball fans right 116 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 2: now are thinking of themselves, Man, my team has a 117 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: legitimate chance to win the worst Even if you're a 118 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Pirates fan right now you have the best start 119 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: you've had in so many years. How many Pirates fans 120 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 2: are thinking themselves, you know what, We've got a real 121 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: chance to win this thing. Some I guess like probably 122 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 2: not right. If you start like six er on the NFL, 123 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 2: you're like, yeah, we're going to super Bowl, right, Like 124 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 2: there's but the NFL. It gives you so much hope. 125 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: How many TOAMNY fan bases today are looking at their 126 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: draft and think of themselves, we got the missing pieces, right, 127 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 2: we have the players that we need now. Twenty five 128 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 2: of the thirty two fan basis right, Like, that's just 129 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 2: the way it is in the NFL. The hope, the 130 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 2: hope is so grand in the NFL. That's what makes 131 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 2: the off season so big. If you're a Jets fan 132 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,679 Speaker 2: right now, you think you've died and gun into heaven. 133 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 2: You Aaron Rodgers, You're weighing the super Bowl like that. 134 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 2: It doesn't happen in baseball, doesn't happen in basketball, right 135 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 2: So that's why the NFL offseason is so big, is 136 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 2: the hope that it brings your favorite team, that you 137 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: have a chance to win the Super Bowl because one 138 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: or two players can make a difference. It can be 139 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: the you know, when you eleven players on the field, 140 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: but there are certain positions that matter more than others. 141 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 2: Those certain players can make a difference, and that, to me, 142 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 2: is why it's so popular. 143 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: You hit it right on the head. But I think 144 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: there's another fact biggest what makes the sports so popular 145 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: a the gambling aspect. I'm even talking about fantasy football 146 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: because people know the players by playing fantasy football. That's 147 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: number one. But number two, I've always said less is 148 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: more and the fact that it is structured in such 149 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: a manner with that every game means so much and 150 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: they only play seventeen games with baseball. You know, if 151 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: I don't see my team play Team X in April, 152 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: I'll catch them again in July. It's just too long. 153 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: We don't have the time. It's just too many games. 154 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 2: You know. Interesting about it also just you know when 155 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 2: the NFL plays like an a international game, right game 156 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 2: in London, Mexico City a game, and this year they 157 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 2: have two games in Germany, I believe right, the Chiefs 158 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 2: play there, the Patriots play there. It's a big deal. 159 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 2: Like you know about it, you hear about it. There 160 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 2: was a game yesterday in Mexico City, the estents of 161 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: the Giants and the Padres played. I don't know About'm 162 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 2: a Giants fan. I know it. It was existing. So 163 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: I watched a game yesterday in Mexico City and they 164 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 2: scored a thousand runs. Because elevation is seventy three hundred 165 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: feet above sea level, they had at least ten home runs. 166 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 2: But when I went to bed last night, maybe more 167 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 2: by the time I stopped paying attention, and uh it 168 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 2: it like it just there's just not just not as 169 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: much hype around around you know, these kind of individual things, 170 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 2: because as you point out, there's just so many baseball 171 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: there's so much inventory in an NFL. There's seventeen games. Now. 172 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: I imagine they get the eighteen games at some point, 173 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,079 Speaker 2: but every game feels so important. Even yesterday, I was 174 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 2: watching the Organ spring game, right and I'm an Organ fan, 175 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 2: so I'm watching it, but like just seeing some things 176 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: on the field, man, Like I'm like, oh my god, 177 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 2: I came up for the season to start. I saw 178 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 2: a couple of things like the hope. It's the football. 179 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 2: It's what it does, man. Football. There's there's an ability 180 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: to give you that excitement in the off season that 181 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 2: you don't have even in bad you know, fe aout basketball. 182 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 2: You might get yourself a Kawhi letter to Paul George 183 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: and not even make out the first round of the playoffs. 184 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: It's just, you know, it's just you might, you know, 185 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 2: you might be the Bucks and I'm not kinda the 186 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,839 Speaker 2: NFL they don't have as many of those situations where 187 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 2: you're the one seed and and just kind of like 188 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 2: evaporate early in the playoffs. So that's what the NFL does. 189 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 2: The offseason is is so important. Now the off season 190 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,679 Speaker 2: kind of ends today, right, It's not much gonna happen now. 191 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 2: Lamar has signed and Aaron Rodgers is traded. But the 192 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 2: three days that we just had, we just had. It's hope, man, 193 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: it's hope. You're you're Bengals fed. Bengals fans are over 194 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 2: the moon. Pass rusher, cornerback like they filled their needs. 195 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 2: They got offensive line and there I follow a bunch 196 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 2: of them on are they show them my Twitter page 197 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: because I've interacted with with Bengals fans so much over 198 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 2: the last couple of years and like it. It's hope. 199 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 2: Everyone loves the hope right now. 200 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: You're exactly right. And you know, even if baseball wanted 201 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: to try to mimic football, they couldn't. You could not 202 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: do fantasy baseball. No one, no one in the right 203 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 1: line is gonna update their stats on a daily basis. 204 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: You can't do it once a week is fine. The 205 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 1: fantasy football baseball can't do it too much. 206 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, you you just can't. So it was fun to 207 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 2: watch the draft. I think the the overriding kind of 208 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 2: theme of it as usual. It is like the we 209 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 2: know nothing the draft starts as much as as we 210 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 2: think we do. And I think it was I I 211 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 2: believe the credible reports from from a lot of people 212 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 2: that cover the NFL that that the Texans were not 213 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: taking a quarterback at two, like the people that and 214 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: people that that get these things right, we're telling us that. 215 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 2: But in the end, if you if you had said, 216 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 2: Andy the at the end of the Contra ball season, 217 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 2: who were the top two or three players? You would 218 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 2: go Bryce Young, CD Stroud, Will Anderson. Like in the draft, right, 219 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 2: if you were a draft the top, it would go 220 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 2: those three. Guess who went one, two and three in 221 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 2: the And the most logical solution and the most logical 222 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: thing happened where the three best players went one, two 223 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 2: and three. 224 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: We did pretty well, I think on OPI we did 225 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: the top five list week. I think we did rather well. 226 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: I missed a fifth pick on Seattle. I had Tyree Wilson, 227 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 1: the defensive end from Texas dead and they picked Witherspoon 228 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: the cornerback. 229 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that was slightly surprising, I think, but 230 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 2: it makes sense what Seattle wants to do. But for 231 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 2: the most part, the first round, I mean kind of 232 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 2: players that were drafted were all sort of on everyone's radar. 233 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 2: The Will Levis thing, you know, it happens every year, 234 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: someone gets overvalued by the media. 235 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: That if it doesn't happen, and why did he go home? 236 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: That was the thing? I mean, you really, I mean 237 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: a lot of those guys go on. I would stay. 238 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: It's it's a thing in your life. It's one of 239 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 1: those days you'll never forget. Stay hang out there. I 240 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: don't get it. Second day people that call in the 241 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: name up and they just they're not even there. If 242 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: that's wrong, I think it's wrong. 243 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 2: I mean, he might not only brought one suit with him, 244 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 2: and I don't even know if he hadn't close for 245 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,439 Speaker 2: another day, like you know what I mean, Like I 246 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 2: don't even know. I just don't know if he even 247 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 2: had had outfits ready to go. But look, I'm glad 248 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 2: he found a home in Tennessee. He has an opportunity 249 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: to play early there. But again, you know, we there's 250 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 2: so much hype on all these players, and I have 251 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 2: been down on Will Levis. I didn't get it. And 252 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 2: you watch the film and then there's you know, talk 253 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: about kind of you know, maybe some you know wasn't 254 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 2: as much you know, trust in him through the process 255 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 2: of meeting with him in the buildings and whatnot. And 256 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 2: then once you got past the colts at four you know, 257 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 2: there wasn't a team desperate for a quarterback, right You 258 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 2: can make the argument that, you know, the Raiders have 259 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 2: Jimmy Garoppolo, like, they don't need Will Levis right now, 260 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 2: right that even before the Titans drafted him, they have 261 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 2: Ryan Dannel, they have they have a molicules that they 262 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 2: don't need Will Levis, And obviously they draft him in 263 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 2: the second round. And when there's other players on the 264 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 2: board that are great to hire, they go in that direction. 265 00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: So I felt bad for him in the in the 266 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 2: green room a little bit, not as much I think 267 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 2: other people made it look like on social media there's 268 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 2: like a pity party for guy drafted thirty fourth overall. 269 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,599 Speaker 2: But uh it uh, it sucks watching a player go 270 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 2: through that on that moment. 271 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's funny because last year they didn't draft 272 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: the running back in the first round. This year they 273 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 1: drafted too, so they're running back is alive and well, 274 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: but the kid out of Texas, I mean, you had 275 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: to draft him Robinson, I mean, and the guy's like, 276 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: what number eight to Atlanta and that that guy was 277 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 1: touted by by everybody, you know, the greatest player to 278 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: come out of the draft ever so you didn't want 279 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: to let him go. 280 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it I it's just Atlanta. It's just doubling down 281 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:46,319 Speaker 2: on on just trying to run the football. 282 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: They love the run game. 283 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 2: That offensive lineman in the second round, who is who 284 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 2: is a better run blocker than pass protector. The thing 285 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 2: about it is, you know, you look at at the 286 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 2: NFL right now and you think to yourself, well, kind 287 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 2: of what it's not all of play works. And I'm 288 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 2: not saying the run games would disappear forever, and it's 289 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 2: important part of I think your identity is and offense, 290 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: right you need some physicality. There are certainly opportunities and 291 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 2: games to run the football, like there absolutely are, But 292 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 2: when you build your offense around running the football, that's 293 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 2: not winning Super Bowls. It's just not And if you're 294 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: the Falcons, that that process, in my opinion, is just 295 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: not good. It's not a winning process to build your 296 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 2: team around wanting to run the football. So I get it, 297 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 2: you're protecting you on quarterback, but again, what is that? 298 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 2: How far does that get you? Right in the end 299 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 2: of the Super Bowl, Yeah, the Eagles they ran the 300 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: ball great, but what it hurts throw for three hundred yards? 301 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 2: Like you're frow the football man. It's part of the game. 302 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: And to set up your offense around running the football 303 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 2: like Atlanta is doing. 304 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: Well, it shows me maybe no trust in the quarterback. 305 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: But I tell you what, the run game, that's like 306 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty football. You know this the day, the day 307 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: of the running game is gone. It's a passing game. 308 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: That's just the way it is. 309 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and again there is a part of the game. 310 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 2: You have to run the ball. I'm on, I'm not 311 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 2: like anti running the ball ever. You have to run 312 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 2: the football, there's part of But but you can't, in 313 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: my opinion, build your team, your offense around that. 314 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to let the passing game set up 315 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: the run game. In years past was the run game 316 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: that's set up the passing game. It's a different game 317 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: right now. And you know that. I mean, it's all passing. 318 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: That's what it is. I mean. Quote back, I remember 319 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: when when the Miami Dolphins when Dan Marino passed what 320 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: five thousand yards? I mean, he's like almost a godfather 321 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: of the forward pass. No one passed like that back there. Yeah, 322 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: well do Reno was playing. I know, his highlights are awesome, dude, 323 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: he just would take the ball him in l way, 324 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: but like backpedal and then just like throw the ball 325 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: thousand miles an hour to someone. That's awesome. It really 326 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: was Jeff Schwartz. He's the man. We'll talk football most 327 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: of the day today Little NBA.

And before we 355 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: roll on here, I think it's it's rather important. I 356 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: believe to say that Bryce Young, the first pick out 357 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: of the NFL's draft. I love what he had to say. 358 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 1: Said he doesn't believe to be entitled because of being 359 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: the first pick. It doesn't entitle me to anything. And 360 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: I love that. I mean, I don't know the guy, 361 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: but I think that sometimes quotes visuals, You know, you 362 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: could form an opinion on someone by just watching them 363 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: or hearing what they have to say on TV. And 364 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 1: now Bryce Young to me has moved up to a 365 00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,360 Speaker 1: lot of big time for me for what he had 366 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: to say, loved it. 367 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 3: Well. 368 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 2: I think he's always said the right thing, has always 369 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 2: done the right thing. He feels like a really good kid, 370 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 2: and you know he's been a kind of a model 371 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 2: player in Alabama. And you know that's why it's probably 372 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: why the Panthers drafted Hi, right, because when you're drafted 373 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 2: number one overall, when you're drafted number four overall, number 374 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 2: two overall as quarterbacks, you become the face of the franchise, right, 375 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 2: so you become, you know, the player that you know 376 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 2: it is most in front of the podium, the player 377 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 2: the fans most know. And so you know, having those 378 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: those traits, those personality traits, you know, humbleness like you 379 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 2: hear from Bryce Young, there as important and it's probably 380 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 2: reason why you get drafted where you are. If you're 381 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 2: kind of a if you're a bad person like that, 382 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 2: that that does play into your evaluation as a prospect. 383 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 2: And you know that there are there are teams that 384 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 2: will pass on you even if you're immensely talented, because 385 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 2: you might be a bad representative for their program. 386 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about the Philadelphia Eagles, because I can't 387 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 1: believe this. I gotta believe that the rich just get richer. 388 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: They had that Huber Bowl roster coming into the draft, 389 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: and what do they get. They get defensive tackle Jalen Carter, 390 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 1: outside linebacker Nolan Smith Junior, and the Ringo kid, the cornerback. Yeah, 391 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 1: and I think that, you know, look, the Jalen Carter thing. 392 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: There was some pushback by some media people, but I 393 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 1: think Howie Roseman, the general manager, defendant nicely. And you 394 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: know what, I did some research on this guy. Because 395 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: the Eagles, right now, you got to say that all 396 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: the credit goes to this guy. I mean, Roseman led 397 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,919 Speaker 1: them to a Super Bowl appearance in five years, the 398 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,440 Speaker 1: second one in five years, with a different head coach 399 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: and a different quarterback. He becomes the first general manager 400 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: to accomplish that, just nineteen eighty And I did some 401 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: research on this guy. He never stepped on a football field, 402 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: he never worked with a team at any level, and 403 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 1: he did this. He sent hundreds, maybe thousands of letters 404 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: to NFL executives over the course of a couple of 405 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 1: years after he graduated law school at Fordham to get 406 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 1: an interview, and then he finally worked his way up 407 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 1: from the I guess the media department in Philadelphia to 408 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 1: become general manager. What a story. And this guy really 409 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: and truly knows what the hell he's doing. 410 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 2: He does, he has a plan and he gets after it. 411 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 2: And I think that they're a model of example of, 412 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 2: you know, how to kind of build your roster right 413 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 2: and understanding what's important. They only used one one draft 414 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 2: one draft pick in the entire draft of this draft 415 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 2: that was their actual own draft pick, because that's how 416 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 2: much wheeling a deal. And they do and often they 417 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 2: move back and acquire more draft picks, which is always 418 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 2: the right thing. Moving back is never going to be 419 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 2: the wrong thing to do. And they get Jalen Carter. 420 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 2: And it's important to note that Jalen Carter, and I 421 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 2: think the the the off the field concerns and there 422 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 2: are concerns with him that were beyond you know, obviously 423 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 2: some of the things that we heard with the unfortunate 424 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,120 Speaker 2: accident that he that he was in, but there were some, 425 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 2: you know, some concerns about kind of focus, right and 426 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 2: attentiveness kind of in the building and whatnot. But but 427 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 2: everyone had said that Jordan Davis, who was there the 428 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 2: previous year, who's now with the Eagles. Okay, defensive tackle 429 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 2: the Eagles drafted last year from Georgia, was a really 430 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 2: good influence on Jalen Carter. Well guess what then, now 431 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 2: they're back together again. So you have the guy who 432 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 2: got the most at Jalen Carter, right, who was able 433 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 2: to be his mentor back with Jalen Carter. So the 434 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 2: Eagles paired these two guys together, which is a great 435 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 2: thing to do. So I even like it even more 436 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 2: than you have his mentor, like his best friend now 437 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 2: on the same team as him, can show him the 438 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 2: way to be a professional. It's a home run for 439 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 2: the Eagles. They add another pass rusher and Nolan Smith. 440 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 2: You can't have enough pass rushers in the NFL. You're 441 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: trying to play against the Chiefs and you're trying to 442 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 2: bring down Patrick Mahomes. You need as many of those 443 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 2: guys as you can get. And the Eagles are building 444 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 2: their team inside out, right offensive line, defensive line, quarterback, 445 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 2: and kind of going outward. And I think a lot 446 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 2: of teams worry about, how do we build our team 447 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,719 Speaker 2: with the best skills players know inside out, build yourself 448 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 2: inside out, and the Eagles just do that as well 449 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 2: or better than anyone else right now. It's a very 450 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 2: important way to build your roster, and they get it. 451 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 2: And I don't know why more teams don't look at 452 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 2: what they do and say, hey, let's build our team 453 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 2: like this. 454 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: You know what, they never used the term rebuild never. 455 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:16,640 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of teams say, oh, we're gonna 456 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: be rebuilt. We're rebuilding. Stage. By the way, we have 457 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: to mention that they also made that trade with the Lions. 458 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: I got the running back de Andre Swift. I mean, 459 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: look for a couple of picks. But this team right 460 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: now is on the verse of going back to the 461 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I mean really, and they signed their quarterback 462 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: to big time money. He's that guy right now, hurts Yeah. 463 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 2: And you look at well, the NFC is just who 464 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: in the NFC right now? Right with Rogers out of 465 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,639 Speaker 2: the NFC, they're clearly the favorite at the moment, and 466 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: I don't know what would change that right now. So 467 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,200 Speaker 2: they're just a roster. You know, the Niners is probably 468 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 2: the best roster in the NFL, but they don't have 469 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 2: the quarterback right, and the Eagles have a great roster 470 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 2: and they have the quarterback and that makes such a 471 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 2: big difference obviously in the end if you're picking the 472 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 2: you know the NFL champion, and I like the way 473 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 2: they build their team. Man, their impressive team to watch 474 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 2: when it comes to how they handle the draft. 475 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: There you go, Jeff Schwartz, Andy Fern by the way. 476 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: Coming up next on Fox Sports Sunday Live from the 477 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: Tyraq dot com studios.

Okay, let's 526 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 1: talk about this Giannis failure speech in the NBA. The 527 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 1: underdog Miami Heat. They pulled off the upset of the 528 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: NBA basketball season, Bob the other day, Wednesday night, I 529 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: believe it was. They bounced out Milwaukee from the playoffs, 530 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 1: the top seed in Milwaukee. And then Yannis was asked 531 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: at the postgame news conference, was it a failure? And 532 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 1: you know what my feeling was, It was a failure. 533 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: They won a number one seed, they failed to advance. 534 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: But Yanni's kind of you know, most most athletes, I 535 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 1: would think Jeff would walk out and just say that 536 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 1: the hell would you? But he gave him an answer. 537 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:22,959 Speaker 1: You have to respect him for that. It was somewhat 538 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: of a decent answer. But as far as Milwaukee Bucks 539 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,640 Speaker 1: are concerned, I think this season was a failure. 540 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 2: You're absolutely correct, it was a failure. You know, we 541 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,640 Speaker 2: could say, if you asked Jannis was a season of disappointment, 542 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 2: he would have been like, he probably would have said, yeah, 543 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 2: it was. It was just ended in disappointment. Right. But 544 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 2: failure can mean such a harsh It feels much harsher 545 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,920 Speaker 2: to say failure, failure, right, And when you say failure, 546 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 2: it feels like you're attacking the person. Right, You're a failure, Yannis, Right, 547 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 2: And when you say that and obviously his story, He's 548 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,679 Speaker 2: truly not a failure, right, him personally, and a lot 549 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 2: of players obviously who made an n being they're not failures. 550 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 2: And so I think he takes that when you say failure, 551 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 2: he takes that as a shot at him personally, right, 552 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 2: And obviously that's not what the comment was. But failure 553 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 2: in sports and in life, it's all about expectations, right, 554 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 2: And the expectations for the Bucks were to win the 555 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,959 Speaker 2: championship this season, and so you have to judge their 556 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 2: postseason success or lack thereof, based off of that, right. 557 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 2: And so even going further than that, you you lost 558 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 2: the last two games of that series, having double digit 559 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 2: leads in the fourth quarter that you blew, especially a 560 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 2: game at home. You're up sixteen points I believe it was, no, Yeah, 561 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 2: sixteen points heading the fourth quarter one O two eighty six. 562 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: And you scored sixteen points in the fourth quarter at 563 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 2: home in an elimination game and then lost in overtime. 564 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 2: That's a failure, buddy, And I like his speech. I 565 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 2: agree with him, right. You know, some days you win, 566 00:27:55,720 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 2: some days you lose. You keep pushing forward. It's a 567 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 2: great speech about life. But in this specific moment, it 568 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 2: felt if the Kings were to lose tonight to the 569 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 2: to the Warriors, their season is not a failure, right, correct. 570 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 2: It depends on your definition, not your definition, but it 571 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:19,880 Speaker 2: depends on what your expectations are or were heading into 572 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 2: a season or heading into life or anything. But it's 573 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 2: absolutely a failure. And I liked his speech. I was 574 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,439 Speaker 2: not surprised. People were like, yeah, that's yeah, you're right, 575 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 2: jiannest it's not a failure. No, no, it was. It 576 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 2: was a failure. It's okay to say that. But again, 577 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 2: if the if the reporter had asked, I think it 578 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 2: was a very fair question, had asked, hey, was your 579 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 2: season of disappointment? I think he answers that differently. But 580 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 2: when you use the word failure, that tends to feel 581 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 2: very personal, and I imagine in that moment Jannis was upset, 582 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 2: obviously and emotional that they lost the series and the 583 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 2: season was over. I think he took that as a 584 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 2: kind of a personal attack on him, when obviously it wasn't. 585 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: No one would ever accused Giannis of being a failure, 586 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 2: but that the season was Look, you have a job 587 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 2: to do if you're the one seed. I think even if, 588 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 2: even if they get to the Eastern Conference Finals and 589 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 2: lost to the Celtics, you would not call that season 590 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 2: a failure. But in round one to the eighth seed 591 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 2: who barely got in the Miami Heat, barely got in, 592 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 2: it's a failure. 593 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: You're exactly right now. Everything he said I sort of 594 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: agree with. He said there is no failure in sports. 595 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,959 Speaker 1: That's where I stopped, because there are failures in sports, 596 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: and his team was a failure in sports. There's no 597 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: doubt about that. He says. There's good days, there's bad days. Look, 598 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: the Boston Celtics bounced out the Atlanta Hawks. Was it 599 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,719 Speaker 1: a failure of a season for the Hawks. No, No 600 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: one expected that to beat Boston and they were lucky 601 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 1: to even be in the playoffs. So that's the way 602 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: it goes. Yes, there are failures in sports, a lot 603 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: of failures in sports. Look, you've seen it. You probably 604 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: played on some teams that were quote failures. 605 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and again I think what he said about like life, 606 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 2: it's absolutely true. Right, you're gonna have some good days 607 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 2: some bad days as you win and lose. It's certainly 608 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 2: a good lesson for my kids, right, I mean, they're 609 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 2: playing sports, now some days and they play baseball base 610 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 2: spol's hard man, Like, my son's the youngest kid's eight 611 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 2: years old. He's the youngest kid on his baseball team. 612 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 2: There's twelve year old on his team. Like it's just 613 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 2: the weird The league is set up kind of odd 614 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 2: with the ages. Like it's hard man. I tell all 615 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 2: the time, I'm like, yeah, you're gonna have some days 616 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 2: they don't go well, You're gonna have some failure. How 617 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 2: do you respond the next day? I'm with you on 618 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 2: us and everything, he said, But in the end, you're 619 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 2: in pro sports man, and you're the one seed, like 620 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 2: your your job is when you get to the postseason 621 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 2: is to win the championship, and so I you know, 622 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 2: he said, Well, does Michael Jordan consider the nine years 623 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 2: he didn't win a championship of failure? I think if 624 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 2: you're asking him, he'd say yes. I think he would 625 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 2: say absolutely, say yeah. But again, there were some years 626 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 2: when he was he's twenty two years old, Like he's 627 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 2: not supposed to be the championship in twenty two years old. 628 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 2: You know, there are other years he's not the favorite 629 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 2: to the Pistons. The Pistons were the favorite so, like 630 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 2: I said, it just depends on you know, I think 631 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 2: Jordan won all the all you kind of all the 632 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 2: championships where he was the favorite. Okay, yeah, so he 633 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: didn't have failure in those moments. You're honest, you're the 634 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 2: favorite man. You lost at home even in Game five, 635 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 2: that was a complete failure. You guys sixteen point ly 636 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 2: hanging the fourth quarter in an elimination game, and you 637 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:18,479 Speaker 2: let Miami come all the way back and you got 638 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler, who who's an amazing player, one of the 639 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 2: best in the NBA, but you know he's the only 640 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 2: guy who's going to do it, and then they let 641 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 2: him do it every every time he wanted to. So 642 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 2: it was a failure. It's okay. 643 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,239 Speaker 1: If they weren't any failures, coaches wouldn't get fired. I'm 644 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: I'm surprised the Buck coach hasn't gotten fired. 645 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 2: I think he will be at some point. But you 646 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 2: also have to understand when you fire somebody, and you 647 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 2: know this, you have to hire someone better. So you 648 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 2: can't just fire a coach, in my opinion, and then 649 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 2: just oh well, let's just we'll just find someone, and 650 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 2: you got to fire someone with someone's specifically a mind 651 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 2: for for for this job. And so I think the 652 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 2: Bucks are probably I imagine, figuring that part out right 653 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 2: now if they want to go back to it. Actually, 654 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 2: but it was a poorly coach series. The timeout usage 655 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 2: was really bad, terrible, and the Bucks It's okay, man, 656 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 2: they just they failed the end of the season. It's 657 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 2: part of sports. It happens. Doesn't make Jannis a failure. 658 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 2: It doesn't make the individual players on the team of failure. 659 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 2: But as a team, they did not win the championship 660 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 2: when they were supposed to win the championship. 661 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: And what about the Memphis Grizzy is getting bounced up 662 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: by the Lagers. They lost by forty But John Moran, 663 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: he came out and said something after they were dump 664 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 1: by the Lagas Friday nineties, says, I've got to be 665 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: better in my decision making. They off court issues affected 666 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: us as an organization. Credit to him, I mean, I know, 667 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: I was shocked. I mean, that's a big deal for 668 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: him to come out and say that he could have 669 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 1: sold but he didn't. He had a decent playoff but 670 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 1: you know the fact that he was, you know, waving 671 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: a gun allegedly in a nightclub and it was suspended 672 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: five six games. I think the team kind of lost 673 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: their mojo when he was gone. 674 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 2: Oh I don't know if it allegedly. I mean there's 675 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 2: a picture of it. But yeah, I'm glad he's doing better, 676 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 2: you know, mentally, right, a better place than he was, 677 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 2: which I think is good for him heading to the 678 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 2: next season. But yeah, the team I think struggled a 679 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: little bit after that, kind of finding their mojo back again. 680 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 2: But yeah, he needs to go tell Dylan Brooks to 681 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 2: not run his mouth anymore. That would probably help him 682 00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 2: a lot. 683 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 1: But I think Lebron did that. 684 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 2: And and and you know, like dude, like if you 685 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 2: were to run your mouth, you'll be a better basketball player, 686 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 2: especially when you know it's Lebron, Like, just you just 687 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 2: can't do that. And uh, Lakers, Lakers will play the 688 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 2: Warriors and King Warriors, Kings. Who do you got tonight? 689 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 2: Warriors are Kings. 690 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 1: I got the Kings and the games in Sacramento that 691 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 1: you took place to win. 692 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, but look, I just I think everyone's picking the 693 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: Kings tonight. And I was certainly shocked. I think everyone 694 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 2: else was that the Warriors did not that they didn't 695 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 2: even win Game six, but they kind of know showed 696 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 2: they didn't play very well. I just would not count 697 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 2: the Warriors in a must win game. 698 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: Interesting to see that that's such a musty TV game 699 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: really is just sports.

Okay, your biggest surprise 710 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: in the NFL draft, mister Schwartz. 711 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 2: I think the Lions drafting a running back and off 712 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 2: ball linebacker in the first round because everyone kind of 713 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 2: thought they were smarter than that. That was very surprising. 714 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna talk, old lineman, because you are one, 715 00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: all right, so you know all about that Arizona picks 716 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,800 Speaker 1: Paris Johnson, the kid from Ohio State by way of 717 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:14,479 Speaker 1: Princeton High School in Cincinnati, at the number six. Where 718 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: do they play this guy? They have a left tackle 719 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: in Humphrees right. Does he play right tackle? Does he 720 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 1: play inside? 721 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 2: Play right? I think he'll play right tackle. This is 722 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 2: why I would have drafted Peter Skorronski, who I thought 723 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 2: was the best offensive lineman, because Peter Scarrotsky can play 724 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 2: over the line of scrimmage. But yeah, he will presumably 725 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 2: play right tackle for the Cardinals. The Cardinals are setting 726 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 2: up for a major rebuild. If you look at their 727 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 2: draft picks for next year, they have like thirteen of them. 728 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 2: And I think they're setting themselves up to just be 729 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 2: very flexible in the draft next year because there's a 730 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 2: quarterback out of USC who is maybe one of the 731 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,680 Speaker 2: better quarterback process we've seen in many, many moons, and 732 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 2: I think they would like to be flexible enough to 733 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 2: be able to snag Kalla william As if possible. 734 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,760 Speaker 1: All right, there we go the move in the draft 735 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,240 Speaker 1: that you didn't see coming. 736 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 2: Oh, the Texans trading backup for will Anderson Dariel Jeremiah 737 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 2: NFL Network NFL dot Com. He had that in his 738 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 2: funnel mock draft. I guess I didn't. I did not 739 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 2: see his final mock draft, so he he had he 740 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 2: called it, I guess, But I didn't think the Texas 741 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 2: were moving back up to three for will Anderson. 742 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: M M. The shaker pick, Schwartz's shocker pick, the shocker pick. 743 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 2: What was the most shocked by. 744 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 5: Hmm? 745 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 2: The pick that shocked me the most. I mean, you know, 746 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,520 Speaker 2: I mentioned Jamir Gibb for the Lions. I was kind 747 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:48,840 Speaker 2: of like, oh, okay, there was like one that was 748 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 2: like sho It was like so shocking to me. It 749 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 2: was it wasn't a draft where you you really had 750 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 2: a was there one for you? But it wasn't like 751 00:36:57,640 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 2: a It was like a showh my god, he believe 752 00:36:59,560 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 2: they did that. 753 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 1: The only thing that shocked me was Roberts, the owner 754 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 1: of the Colts, was asking the fans who he should 755 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: draft a quarterback. I mean, what was that all about. 756 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I think it was more interaction. Yeah, there 757 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 2: wasn't one that was like shocking, like we're like, oh 758 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 2: my god, Hill they did that didn't go. And I 759 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 2: think one of the most shocking things to me was 760 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,760 Speaker 2: the way that we that people in the draft media 761 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,720 Speaker 2: talk about some of these prospects, like the defensive tackle 762 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:40,360 Speaker 2: uh uh Klaijah Cantsey from Pittsburgh, who people just decided 763 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 2: that he's he's his compass Aaron Donald because he's on 764 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 2: the shorter side of from Pittsburgh. Like besides that, yeah, 765 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,959 Speaker 2: I mean, like no, not at all. You know, would 766 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 2: you compare a player to Aaron Donald? Why would you 767 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 2: ever do that? And there's Aaron Donald's one of one. 768 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 2: You know, Flowers gets drafted by the Ravens all of 769 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 2: a sudden, he's the next Tyreek Hill. It's like, well 770 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 2: do we we slow down for a little bit here on? 771 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 2: Like the comps are out of control. That to me 772 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,320 Speaker 2: was surprising, Like, I just don't like how we compare 773 00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 2: young players to the best players in the NFL. I get, 774 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:10,840 Speaker 2: I get the point of it, right, If you're a 775 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 2: Ravens fan or you're a Bucks fan, you want to 776 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 2: know how this certain player might fit in your in 777 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 2: your your team, but you give that the player unfair expectations. 778 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,400 Speaker 2: Next year, we're gonna see it with Kelen Williams compared 779 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 2: to Pat Mahomes. It's just gonna be unfair for the 780 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,320 Speaker 2: for for Kaid Williams to live up to those expectations. 781 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,880 Speaker 1: You know, I'm glad you brought that up because to 782 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: continue in that vein when someone compares it, compare you 783 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: to a great offensive lineman, what kind of pressure does 784 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,720 Speaker 1: that put on you? Certainly it's a compliment, but really 785 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: and truly, I mean it's pressure where if you don't 786 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: come up to that level, then you'll use the word 787 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 1: that Yanni's used failure, Then then you're a failure. Right. 788 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 2: I surely was never compared to any good offensive lineman 789 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,359 Speaker 2: coming out of college. I think it's just I think 790 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 2: that it you know, players probably used his motivation to 791 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,759 Speaker 2: be that guy. But yeah, I mean it's, uh, we've 792 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 2: seen over the years, you know, main offensive linemen that 793 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 2: have failed. You know, it's a lot of pressure too. 794 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 2: It's pressure anyways, and they might have failed anyways, but 795 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 2: you know, be compared to one of the best, does 796 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:11,200 Speaker 2: it really help? 797 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 1: Right? Okay, now we're gonna talk about some quarterbacks. Your 798 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: take on this Lamar Jackson situation. Basically, he snuck in. 799 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it wasn't a lot of fanfare with his signing, 800 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: but he did sign. 801 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 2: He's gonna be a raven Yeah, the most logical outcome 802 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 2: was this, go back to the Ravens makes the most sense. 803 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 2: I really do think there wasn't a lot of interest 804 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 2: around the NFL to give up two first round picks 805 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:40,439 Speaker 2: and paint Lamar Jackson all this money, and so I'm 806 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 2: I'm happy for both him and in the Ravens. Now 807 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 2: we can move on. 808 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: Okay, last, but not least this Aaron Rodgers now moved 809 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: to the Jets. I'm looking at both rosters on both teams. 810 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: I don't see a substantial increase in talent going to 811 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,240 Speaker 1: the Jets from Green Bay. I think they're very similar 812 00:39:58,239 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 1: in nature. 813 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 2: Bo really we just have a better defense. But they 814 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 2: played just in a much tougher conference. So, you know, congratulations, 815 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:10,879 Speaker 2: Like I just don't, I don't really, I just don't 816 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 2: think that that we're going to end up with, you know, 817 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 2: a super Bowl championship, which is really the only success 818 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 2: for the Jets if we talk about failure, right with Giannis, 819 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,319 Speaker 2: the Jets have to win a super Bowl. That is 820 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 2: that is the reason you brought over Aaron Rodgers. 821 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: It's amazing to me, and I would have stayed in 822 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: the NFC because really, there was no competition there. You 823 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 1: got Minnesota, maybe Detroit coming on a little bit, but 824 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: other than that, there's nothing. Chicago Bears, you'll forget about them. 825 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: And now you got all these AFC clubs don't get it. 826 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,680 Speaker 1: So we'll see what happens with Rogers, but tell me 827 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 1: it isn't So can we see this man back in 828 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 1: the NFL next year? That's next we funny retired. That's 829 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,479 Speaker 1: coming right up. It is Fox Sports Sunday on Fox 830 00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 1: Sports Radio.

Don't forget Denver. 838 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 1: I mean they are like sleeping in the bushes. You know, 839 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: they had a great season, been a top of the 840 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: division most of the season. No one gives them much respect, 841 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,959 Speaker 1: but they gave it to to Phoenix yesterday won twenty 842 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,760 Speaker 1: five one oh seven KD for Phoenix. Had a pretty 843 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: decent game though, twenty nine points, fourteen boards. But Denver 844 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 1: had six guys in double figures yesterday. 845 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,400 Speaker 2: Well, we'll use them respect because the last two postseasons 846 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 2: they didn't they didn't earn it, right, So I think that, 847 00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 2: you know, if they were able to get by Phoenix 848 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 2: office even the Western Conference Finals, they would get their respect, 849 00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 2: but they would not be a favorites in everyone's mind 850 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 2: over the Lakers, let's say, right, so if the Lakers 851 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,919 Speaker 2: will end up, you know, in that position. But yeah, 852 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 2: they dominated the game last night. You know the Suns 853 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 2: again that the depth I think of the Suns plays 854 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 2: a role in a lot of these games. You mentioned 855 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 2: six players for Nuggets in double figures. The Suns play 856 00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:21,240 Speaker 2: like seven guys like they don't have They're not very deep, 857 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 2: and so you know, if they get in a situation 858 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 2: where where the Nuggets are going to be this efficient offensively, 859 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 2: it's gonna be tough for Phoenix to keep up. So 860 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,520 Speaker 2: good Game one for the Nuggets. You know, I would 861 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 2: expect the Sons to bring this back in Game two 862 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:39,400 Speaker 2: and keep it much closer. 863 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,360 Speaker 1: You know, I I love looking at box scores only 864 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,959 Speaker 1: in basketball, not so much baseball, but basketball. I'm looking 865 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,800 Speaker 1: at the box score right now with Denver shot forty 866 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 1: from the fleet from the field, Phoenix shot fifty one percent. 867 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:54,680 Speaker 1: But I think the game was one or lost the 868 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,319 Speaker 1: three point line, you know, because Phoenix shot thirty seven 869 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 1: for twenty three with Denver shot forty three, sixty to 870 00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 1: thirty seven. And then offensive rebounding, I mean Deadver at 871 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:10,760 Speaker 1: sixteen offensive boards as a posts like eight for for Phoenix. 872 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 1: So I think that's where the game was won or 873 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 1: lost if you're looking for Phoenix or Denver. 874 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:19,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and and but look, but often that's where games 875 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 2: are won and lost, right, which in the three point line. Now, 876 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 2: so that that that doesn't surprise me where you know 877 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 2: where we see the woods and losses coming from in 878 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 2: the NBA. But you're right, Look, the Nuggets are the 879 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,720 Speaker 2: one seed for a reason. They're extremely talented. They're healthier 880 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 2: than they have been any point in the in the postseasons, 881 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 2: which is which is obviously very very important when it 882 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 2: comes to handicapping series and how you feel about the 883 00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 2: ability to you know, for team to win or not 884 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 2: but what what's in an NBA Like, it's not a 885 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:54,359 Speaker 2: serious till till the road team wins the game, so uh, 886 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:58,120 Speaker 2: you know they're still you know, the game has the 887 00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,240 Speaker 2: series that's going back to Phoenix. 888 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: Though, oh okay, here's the question. Would it be a 889 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 1: failure if Denver loses this series or is it a 890 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: failure for Phoenix using the term failure that they did. 891 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 2: So I think for I think for either it would 892 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,839 Speaker 2: be right because you're the one seed, if you're if 893 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 2: you're the Nuggets, and how many years are you gonna 894 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 2: you know, be one of the better teams in the 895 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:24,439 Speaker 2: regular season and not win the postseason? Right? I would 896 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 2: imagine that getting to getting to the West Garward's Final 897 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 2: is the minimum for the Nuggets, right right? 898 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 1: And there are one see Phoenix of four seats Maybe 899 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't be much of a failure situation for Phoenix. 900 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:39,719 Speaker 2: But but Phoenix though again like tying it back over 901 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 2: the NFL, like they're like they're they're the Jets now, right, 902 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 2: the Jets on the sting Jets are the Suns now. 903 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 2: You traded for Kevin Durant to win a championship, that's 904 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 2: why you did it? And maybe you did it for 905 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 2: next year. This year was just kind of the appetizer, 906 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:55,839 Speaker 2: the warm up, and next year you get a full 907 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 2: season with Durant and you feel better about your chances. 908 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,320 Speaker 2: But you specifically traded for Kevin Durant to win a 909 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 2: championship and you did it for this season, right, you 910 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:07,839 Speaker 2: did it for this season, And so if you don't 911 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,360 Speaker 2: do that, it's a failure. Do you fail on at 912 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 2: least in year one? This season? You fail on that? 913 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 2: You fail on that trade. 914 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 1: Right, I'm with you. I'm with you on that because 915 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 1: he's like the Aaron Rodgers of Phoenix. Right now, they 916 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: got him too, win it all and we'll see what happens. Okay, 917 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,480 Speaker 1: let's move to the NFL right now, because this story 918 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,920 Speaker 1: made me crazy. He really did, because less than two 919 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:32,920 Speaker 1: months after saying he retired, ab Antonio Brown announces he's 920 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,280 Speaker 1: going to resume his NFL career. He says he plans 921 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 1: to play for the Ravens. He's not even on there 922 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,800 Speaker 1: freaking roster and he wants to play for the Ravens. Okay, 923 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 1: what is the story with this guy? He needs some 924 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 1: help between the ears. I think you know, I'd like 925 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: to see him come back, you know, if he could 926 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: control himself, because he's one hell of a player, and 927 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 1: really and truly him added to that roster, you know 928 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 1: what Odell Beckham Junior and Lamar's back, you know, it 929 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 1: makes him pretty formidable, really does. But I don't see 930 00:45:57,800 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 1: him coming back. 931 00:45:58,520 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 6: Do you? 932 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 2: The NFL? There's zero chance. Why would any team want 933 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 2: to want to put up with Antonio Brown? And I 934 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 2: get how much how much talent there is there, but 935 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 2: is there still that same talent right now that there 936 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 2: was five years ago? I no, I mean I could 937 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 2: say I want to come back to doesn't mean anyone's 938 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 2: gonna sign me. I don't. I just don't think that 939 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 2: we're gonna end up with a situation where any TV 940 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 2: be considers bringing me. The last the last two teams 941 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 2: he's been on, he's left the situations in a very 942 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 2: toxic way. And I can't imagine what the Raiders with 943 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 2: the Raiders, right and then the Jets, like the Raiders 944 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 2: and Bucks, I should say, it's just not it's just 945 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,840 Speaker 2: not gonna happen. It's he's just not gonna pay the 946 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 2: NFL anymore. And that's just is what it is. I mean, 947 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,600 Speaker 2: he end up he cost himself as the back of 948 00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:47,240 Speaker 2: his of his NFL career. 949 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, he hasn't played an NFL game since that he 950 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 1: he took off his jersey I think against when he 951 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 1: was playing for the Buck in his back of twenty 952 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,880 Speaker 1: twenty one. Then Tampa released him. He's gonna be thirty 953 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: five years old. And I don'tkay, what do you say? 954 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:00,879 Speaker 1: I mean, you can't fight for the time. I mean 955 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 1: he has to have slowed down a step with two 956 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,280 Speaker 1: and he hasn't played, so I don't see it happening. 957 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 1: But I think Lamar would want him. I think Lamar 958 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:09,920 Speaker 1: Jackson would would kind of lobby for him, don't you think. 959 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:16,080 Speaker 2: I mean maybe, But the Ravens, you know they brought 960 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:21,759 Speaker 2: Odell in, right, they drafted who they drafted who they 961 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,000 Speaker 2: drafted a wide receiver. This I'm gonna pull up just 962 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 2: to make sure of this. Right, they drafted who they 963 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 2: draft Zay Flowers? Right, draft to Zay Flowers in the 964 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:34,359 Speaker 2: first round. I mean they they they've they've they've added 965 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 2: a wide receiver. Help they're not. The thing about Antonio 966 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:43,279 Speaker 2: Brown is like you just you have to have a 967 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 2: certain type of roster to add a player like that. 968 00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:53,399 Speaker 2: Like when you have Tom Brady's your quarterback. I think 969 00:47:53,440 --> 00:48:00,080 Speaker 2: it's easier with his just the the leadership presence and 970 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 2: how long he's playing in the NFL that you just 971 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 2: trust tom Brady if he says, okay, I'll take care 972 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 2: of Antonio Brown like all the absolutely did, and you say, 973 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 2: all make sure it works, like it's my responsibility to 974 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,400 Speaker 2: make sure this works. And there's only a couple of quarterbacks, 975 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 2: Like I'm not even sure that you would say that 976 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 2: about Pat Mahomes right now, Like if you're the Chiefs, 977 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,760 Speaker 2: would You're not saying Antonio Brown like you just you 978 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:32,839 Speaker 2: even Mahomes said, man, I got this, Like I'm not 979 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:36,319 Speaker 2: sure that you would you would do that. I think 980 00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 2: it's like one quarterback who was like Tom Brady you 981 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 2: would do that with so I think. 982 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:48,600 Speaker 1: Could handle him. Oh boy, No, So. 983 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 2: I think this you just you're just not gonna do it. 984 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,720 Speaker 2: Just it's just it's just the Ravens and the Ravens 985 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 2: are again, the Ravens are a team that you know, 986 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:58,720 Speaker 2: their culture is great, like their their culture is great. 987 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 2: You know, Martin a great job of leading that in 988 00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 2: that organization to do a great job lead the organization. 989 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,160 Speaker 2: But I just you can't play Antonio Brown there. You 990 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 2: just can't do it. 991 00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 1: So we're not going to see him. I'm with you. 992 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 1: I don't think would have seen him the NFL this year. 993 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:17,279 Speaker 2: I really don't know why, why he's why would anyone 994 00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 2: sign him? 995 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,799 Speaker 1: I'm with you, And look, I think his skills are 996 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 1: he wrote it as well. But we talk about quarterbacks 997 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 1: right now. Let's talk about Will Levis. You mentioned early 998 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 1: today but picked thirty three. But at Tennessee Titans, he 999 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:33,640 Speaker 1: was tagged as a first rounder and I don't really 1000 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 1: know what happened. I guess he wasn't needed, but the 1001 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 1: Titans did trade up eight spots to get it. But Tennessee, 1002 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: this team realizes on the running game with Derek Henry. 1003 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 1: But here's the guy you mentioned early on, the kid 1004 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 1: from Northwestern, Peter Scarnsky, the offensive lineman in round one 1005 00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:50,040 Speaker 1: that's got to help the Titans and help their running games. 1006 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 1: And you said he's the best offensive lineman in the draft. 1007 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. I like what the Titans did with their offense. 1008 00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:57,440 Speaker 2: They also brought a Jalen Duncan in the fifth round 1009 00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,920 Speaker 2: from Maryland. I like what they did there. Look the 1010 00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 2: Will Levis thing, I just I don't see it. I'm 1011 00:50:04,920 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 2: a second round draft pick I think is appropriate for 1012 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 2: Will Levis. You know you don't feel as inclined to 1013 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:16,279 Speaker 2: play him right away. If it doesn't work out, you 1014 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:19,520 Speaker 2: haven't wasted a first round draft pick on him. If 1015 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:21,840 Speaker 2: it does work out, you look like a genius. But 1016 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:23,960 Speaker 2: I just don't see it with him, man, I just don't. 1017 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:26,360 Speaker 2: And it's okay, Like you can be a good college player. 1018 00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 2: How many times have we seen great culture ball players, 1019 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:33,080 Speaker 2: good cultureable players, just not good in the NFL? You know, 1020 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:37,959 Speaker 2: I know it seems very This is a very simple take, 1021 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 2: and I know people will push back on it, but 1022 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:44,680 Speaker 2: dude is too muscular to play quarterback, Like how many 1023 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 2: quarterbacks are ripped? Like you have to have some flexibility 1024 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,120 Speaker 2: in your body to play that position. And if you're 1025 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 2: that yoked, you're not going to have the flexibility to 1026 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:01,440 Speaker 2: throw the all the way you want to. You're just not. 1027 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,320 Speaker 2: If that was the case, if it was if if 1028 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 2: there was a if it was a has a way 1029 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:14,799 Speaker 2: the Roy pass, if there was a it was determined 1030 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:20,479 Speaker 2: that being yoked was preferable to play quarterback position, every 1031 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,360 Speaker 2: quarterback would be yoked, right. 1032 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 1: I've never seen a quarterback yoked. I haven't seen the 1033 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:26,840 Speaker 1: muscle bound quarterback. 1034 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:29,560 Speaker 2: Think they're not because they limit your range of motion 1035 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 2: and your flexibility, and I think that stuff matters. It's 1036 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 2: little things like that that when you add the film 1037 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 2: in there, and it all matters. Man, And so you 1038 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:44,799 Speaker 2: put the main in the mayonnaise in the coffee. It's 1039 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 2: just all red flags everywhere, you know. 1040 00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:48,520 Speaker 1: But I think he ended up in a good spot 1041 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 1: because he's going to be behind Ryan Tanne, who's going 1042 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 1: to be thirty five years old and he could take 1043 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 1: over that contract at the end of the year. And 1044 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 1: also he's going to be behind what a twenty four 1045 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 1: year old quarterback on Malik Willis. I don't think he's 1046 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:01,840 Speaker 1: have a problem beating that kid out right. So I 1047 00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get a chance to grow with Tennessee, 1048 00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: I really do. It could be a blessing in disguise for. 1049 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 2: Him, Absolutely, it could be a blessing in the skies 1050 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:17,759 Speaker 2: and it could. But I don't think he's any goods. 1051 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:19,840 Speaker 2: I just don't think he's gonna be a good pro quarterback. 1052 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,800 Speaker 2: So again, I mean blessing. This guy is great. He 1053 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 2: found an organization that he wants to go to. But 1054 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 2: remember the Titans passed on him in the first round, 1055 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,680 Speaker 2: like they could have drafted with eleventh pick overall, and 1056 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 2: they didn't think he was worthy of that pick. And 1057 00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 2: how many times you know or franchise quarterbacks passed on 1058 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 2: by that team and then draft you know, the Ravens 1059 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 2: are a good example, right, who didn't draft Lamar in 1060 00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,719 Speaker 2: the first with their first pick in the first round, 1061 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 2: but the times that chance to draft the franchise quarterback 1062 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 2: at eleven, it passed on Levis Like they were okay 1063 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 2: just passing on him in general, right, Like they were 1064 00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 2: okay with with not having him on their roster, not 1065 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 2: how much say that's how good they thought he was. 1066 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,480 Speaker 2: Now all of a sudden, I'm supposed to believe that 1067 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,400 Speaker 2: they think of him as their two row winning quarterback, 1068 00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:10,320 Speaker 2: a guy they were gonna they were okay with just 1069 00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:13,520 Speaker 2: passing on I know, Yeah, that kind of that. That's 1070 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 2: my skepticism about what he'll be as a pro. 1071 00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, And we we talked about the Ortlanta Falcons love 1072 00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:20,160 Speaker 1: the run game, the run run game first, but I 1073 00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 1: think Mike Rabel is very similar. Yeah, he understands how 1074 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,239 Speaker 1: to run the ball first, but he's a coach that 1075 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 1: plays for his personnel. And when you got to go 1076 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:28,920 Speaker 1: like Derek Henry, you gotta run the football. 1077 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,839 Speaker 2: I could make the case that they shouldn't even drafted him, right, 1078 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 2: Like if you if if if we agree that quarterback 1079 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 2: is the most important position in sports, right and and 1080 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:42,160 Speaker 2: it's it's if you don't have one, there's no chance 1081 00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:46,800 Speaker 2: that you're gonna win. Right. And the Titans had opportunity 1082 00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 2: to eleven to draft Will Levis and they passed. They said, 1083 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 2: you know what, we we can't We're not taking him 1084 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 2: at eleven. We we think that you know, Peter Skronski 1085 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 2: that ackle Northwestern is a better player than Will Levis, 1086 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 2: Then why would you pick him at thirty four? Like 1087 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,359 Speaker 2: if you think it was good enough to be your 1088 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:13,160 Speaker 2: most important player with a higher draft pick, why is 1089 00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 2: he all of a sudden good enough to be your 1090 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,880 Speaker 2: most important player at thirty four? But how are you 1091 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 2: just like you passed on him at eleven, Just pass 1092 00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 2: on him like he's not your guy. Wait for quarterback 1093 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 2: next season. 1094 00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 1: It makes a lot of sense. But you know what, 1095 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think now of an NFL team that 1096 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 1: has won without really a decent quarterback the Giants won 1097 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:35,360 Speaker 1: this year Daniel Jones, and they put a lot of 1098 00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:36,840 Speaker 1: stock on him, But it was the running game they 1099 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:40,240 Speaker 1: really got on there. It really was a se Kwan Barker. 1100 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 2: They also won like eight games by less than a score, 1101 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 2: which is not going to happen this season. 1102 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 1: That's true, that is true. But they did win. But 1103 00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 1: they won. But you know, but again, what did they do? 1104 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 1: They made the playoffs, that won their first playoff game. 1105 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:57,160 Speaker 1: That's basically they really didn't go deep. But I'm trying 1106 00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: to think of a team that over the years did 1107 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:02,080 Speaker 1: not have a blue hip quarterback that has really made 1108 00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 1: some some waves in the. 1109 00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 2: National The forty nine ers, I think would be the 1110 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 2: answer this year. Yeah, I mean, Jimmy Garoppolo has never 1111 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 2: been better than you know, minimum what back some of 1112 00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 2: the twelve best quarterback in the NFL. 1113 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you there. I'm trying to think though, really, 1114 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:23,319 Speaker 1: but the Bears have won in years past. We're just 1115 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,680 Speaker 1: on great defense, right, and then they really had a 1116 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 1: tremendous quarterback. Yeah, the Bears have done it. 1117 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 2: It's fair. 1118 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,160 Speaker 1: I don't remember the Bears even having great receivers or quarterbacks. 1119 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 1: It was like you know when Gail Stairs played for 1120 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,080 Speaker 1: the Bears. That was it and great defenses. 1121 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:41,280 Speaker 2: That Gail Sairs buddy was way before my time. 1122 00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, you know, but still he was there. 1123 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 2: He was there. I know who he is. I'm up 1124 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 2: in my NFL history. 1125 00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 1: I know you are there. You go, all right.

I love it. I mean, you got 1146 00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 1: the box score there, twenty seven hits and San Diego 1147 00:56:58,560 --> 00:56:59,920 Speaker 1: wins twelve to eleven. It's unreal. 1148 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,560 Speaker 2: No, no, that wasn't even the final score. The final 1149 00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 2: score was sixteen eleven. 1150 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:05,240 Speaker 1: I went to pay innings. 1151 00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I went to sleep. It was sixteen to eleven. 1152 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 2: I believe there were I mean see when the home 1153 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 2: runs hit. There were at least ten home runs hit 1154 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 2: in the game. The ball was flying out. The total tonight, 1155 00:57:19,560 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 2: by the way, for the game, I believe is twenty 1156 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,160 Speaker 2: and a half. The over unders twenty and a half 1157 00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 2: for the game. There were let's see, yeah, there were 1158 00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 2: at least ten home There were ten home runs hit yesterday. 1159 00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:32,600 Speaker 1: Well, which tells me that which I never thought about this. 1160 00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 1: You know, they have those minor league teams and a 1161 00:57:34,640 --> 00:57:36,280 Speaker 1: lot of guys are playing in the Mexican League, they 1162 00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,000 Speaker 1: try to bring them up to the bigs. You know 1163 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,240 Speaker 1: those stats in mean English right now, if you're playing 1164 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:40,480 Speaker 1: on that. 1165 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 2: Height, yeah they're not well. Yeah, but a lot of 1166 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 2: times they say that, you know, the Pacific Coast League. 1167 00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 2: I think it is that the Triple A where they 1168 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:54,400 Speaker 2: play the games in like Reno in Vegas. The hitting 1169 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 2: stats in those leagues get a little inflated, and so 1170 00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,600 Speaker 2: the you know, baseball, they generally know that those are 1171 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:02,040 Speaker 2: gonna be a little bit a little bit deflated. 1172 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:03,720 Speaker 1: There all right. Now, Now I'm going to go back 1173 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:05,600 Speaker 1: to the NFL for a second, because I think the 1174 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine it is pulled off. Maybe the 1175 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:10,400 Speaker 1: biggest surprise in the third round of the draft this 1176 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:13,160 Speaker 1: year was Friday Night when they took Michigan kicker Jake 1177 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 1: Moody with the ninety ninth over roll pick, and kickers 1178 00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:19,960 Speaker 1: almost never never drafted that high. The only other kicker 1179 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:21,800 Speaker 1: to be taken to the top one hundred pick is 1180 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:25,400 Speaker 1: Roberto Aguerrio taken fifty ninth, but a Buccaneers back in 1181 00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,920 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. You know what, he was released after that 1182 00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:30,960 Speaker 1: one season. Really, it's amazing why they did that. I 1183 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 1: know they didn't have a pick in the fourth round 1184 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:34,640 Speaker 1: and there were other needs in that ball club, but 1185 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: to get that move, I think that Jake Moody had 1186 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,200 Speaker 1: a decent kicker for sure, but I was really surprised. 1187 00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:44,840 Speaker 2: I mean, the Patriots took a kicker and a punter yesterday. Yeah, 1188 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:49,320 Speaker 2: I mean, it's not surprising because it's Bill Belichick, but 1189 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:52,360 Speaker 2: does feel surprising that, you know, a team decided to 1190 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 2: take both those players, you know, But yeah, I mean, 1191 00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 2: the Niners doing that, especially when they didn't have a 1192 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:00,520 Speaker 2: high draft pick that I had a bunch draft, kind 1193 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 2: of the bottom of the draft. But look, I mean, 1194 00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 2: you know the Niners have with gold they gig Goo, 1195 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:08,680 Speaker 2: they great kicking for so many years. I understand why 1196 00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 2: they feel like that's such an important position for them, 1197 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:15,480 Speaker 2: especially when you know Chinahan is, you know, tends to 1198 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:18,480 Speaker 2: be on the conservative side of coaching. He really does. 1199 00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:22,080 Speaker 2: He prefers field goals over oftentimes going for it. So 1200 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:26,439 Speaker 2: I get why, you know, you kind of he kind 1201 00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 2: of wants a kicker that he can trust. 1202 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 1: And when this guy's a decent kick, because there's no 1203 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,960 Speaker 1: doubt about that, he hit a fifty nine other in 1204 00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 1: Michigan's fifty one forty five lous By. 1205 00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:42,960 Speaker 2: The way, Michigan had a kicker and punter drafted for 1206 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:46,680 Speaker 2: the first time, you know, from the same school, since 1207 00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:48,920 Speaker 2: like Utah did like eight years ago before that, I 1208 00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 2: had never happened before. 1209 00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 1: Wow. I mean, it's just crazy. 1210 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 6: You know. 1211 00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,720 Speaker 1: I'm glad you mentioned the situation with the Patriots because 1212 00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:58,480 Speaker 1: all week long leading up to the draft, they were 1213 00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:01,560 Speaker 1: saying how Bill Bellick and the Patriots were looking to 1214 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 1: maybe trade for a quarterback or draft the quarterback. They 1215 01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,439 Speaker 1: weren't really happy with Mac Jones. What happened, they didn't 1216 01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:09,000 Speaker 1: even touch a quarterback. Really well, maybe they're happy with 1217 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 1: mac Jones. Maybe the reports that we had were non accurate. 1218 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 2: Mack. You believe that at pre draft report might. 1219 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 1: Not be accurate, right, Yeah? Yeah, I mean I don't understand. 1220 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:21,840 Speaker 1: I mean, are you happy with mac Jones? I would 1221 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,200 Speaker 1: have drafted a quarterback? Really well, I. 1222 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:26,440 Speaker 2: Think the question becomes like, okay, so if you have 1223 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:29,680 Speaker 2: Mac Jones, you end up you know, you put it 1224 01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 2: with Bill O'Brien, Okay, and say whatever you want about 1225 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 2: Bill O'Brien. This time in Houston, he can coach offense, 1226 01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 2: Like the Texans as a team were not bad as 1227 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:41,400 Speaker 2: a team when he was there. He was a bad 1228 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 2: general manager and in Alabama obviously the last couple of 1229 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:47,280 Speaker 2: years he can coach offense. I think he will be 1230 01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:49,680 Speaker 2: a good coach for Mac Jones. I think we will 1231 01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:51,880 Speaker 2: see the best version of Mac Jones the next couple 1232 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:54,440 Speaker 2: of years, which is what the Patriots need to see 1233 01:00:54,800 --> 01:00:57,120 Speaker 2: before it might be before deciding to move on. And 1234 01:00:57,160 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 2: that's I think what they're doing. Let's they say, like, look, 1235 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:04,200 Speaker 2: let's get of ourselves the best evaluation we can of 1236 01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 2: of Mac Jones before we decide to move on from him, 1237 01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:10,000 Speaker 2: and let's do it this year or the next year. 1238 01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:12,840 Speaker 2: It's too early to do it. You had Matt Patricia 1239 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:16,040 Speaker 2: and Joe Judges off of coach last year. You need 1240 01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 2: to give a better opportunity to succeed with Bill O'Brien 1241 01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:23,439 Speaker 2: that whatever you just did with with with with Matt 1242 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,280 Speaker 2: Patricia last weekend, as you mean last year. 1243 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:27,439 Speaker 1: You know you know this because you play the game, 1244 01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 1: you were there, you're on the inside. How much is 1245 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 1: it an ego thing where you draft a player and 1246 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:35,960 Speaker 1: the the they don't want to say they failed or 1247 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:37,920 Speaker 1: they got a bad pick that they looked like they lost. 1248 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 1: That was a they'll keep the guy as long as 1249 01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:43,400 Speaker 1: they can to prove to themselves and others, maybe to 1250 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 1: the media as well as their fan base, that that 1251 01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:48,439 Speaker 1: he's okay, you know, we didn't make a mistake. It's 1252 01:01:48,480 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 1: a lot of ego in there. I'm sure, of course there's. 1253 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 2: Ego in this. There's always ego in in in the 1254 01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:58,440 Speaker 2: way that you know, the drafting of players and whatnot. 1255 01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:02,640 Speaker 2: It's it's it's always gonna be that way. But again, 1256 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 2: I think it's too early to move on from mac Jones. 1257 01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 2: You don't. You have to give him a year or 1258 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 2: two with a real host, C and Bill O'Brien and 1259 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 2: then you can decide what to do with them. It's 1260 01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,200 Speaker 2: just too expensive to move on right now, and to me, 1261 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:17,600 Speaker 2: it feels kind of pointless in the moment to do so. 1262 01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:21,480 Speaker 1: You know, and you mentioned this early on, even prior 1263 01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 1: to the draft, that you know, the first round, maybe 1264 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 1: even a little bit in the second round, you're gonna 1265 01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 1: draft needs, and after that you want to basically draft 1266 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:32,320 Speaker 1: the best player available because your need factor may be gone. 1267 01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 1: And I think as far as the forty nine ers 1268 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:36,720 Speaker 1: were concerned they probably needed a free safety with someone 1269 01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:39,280 Speaker 1: in that backfield, and maybe even a tackle, maybe a 1270 01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:42,000 Speaker 1: right tackle, and they just let that go. Would you 1271 01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:45,240 Speaker 1: say that the kicker, this Jake Moody, was the best 1272 01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 1: player available. I don't get it. 1273 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:52,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess for them there was more of a. 1274 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: Need because Robbie Gold is gone, so is it. 1275 01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, again, think about the team needs though, 1276 01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 2: it's something that we like, we as sitting here saying 1277 01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 2: that a team meet. We don't know what they what 1278 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,280 Speaker 2: they think their best. You know, the most important team 1279 01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:10,720 Speaker 2: need is though right as part of it as well, 1280 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:12,680 Speaker 2: Like you know, these teams have their own draft boards. 1281 01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 2: We don't know what they say. And then Iersman thought, hey, man, 1282 01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:18,960 Speaker 2: like this this kid is, this kicker is is such 1283 01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:21,360 Speaker 2: an important part of our future. We we better make 1284 01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:24,360 Speaker 2: sure that we have that that you know, that that 1285 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:27,080 Speaker 2: situation settled. It's possible. 1286 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:30,880 Speaker 1: Amazing, really, I mean I was sort of shocked, but 1287 01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:33,120 Speaker 1: we'll see. I mean, look, a lot of things happened 1288 01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:35,000 Speaker 1: in this draft. A lot of a lot of predictions 1289 01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:37,440 Speaker 1: went out the window. I think people, as you said, 1290 01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,680 Speaker 1: the first four or five picks, we kind of knew, 1291 01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 1: but after that everything was in turmoil. It really was. 1292 01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:44,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think anybody had a great uh 1293 01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:47,480 Speaker 1: mock draft because it was it was impossible to have that. 1294 01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 1: It really was and really the best draft right now, 1295 01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:52,760 Speaker 1: I would have to say, walking away this morning, the 1296 01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:55,280 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles there really were great. 1297 01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:58,120 Speaker 2: They did a great They did a fantastic job. You're 1298 01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:00,440 Speaker 2: absolutely correct on that, you know, and. 1299 01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:02,600 Speaker 1: You got to credit their general manager. I mean, I 1300 01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:04,960 Speaker 1: don't think it's luck this guy knows and I'm shocked 1301 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 1: that this after reading about him. You know, never played 1302 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:09,720 Speaker 1: the game, never worked in a ball coach. 1303 01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:12,080 Speaker 2: You don't. You don't have to play the game to 1304 01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:13,800 Speaker 2: be a good coach or to be a good front 1305 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:14,400 Speaker 2: office person. 1306 01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 1: But what is is it a skill that you have 1307 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:20,560 Speaker 1: that you could see that No, you just you just. 1308 01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 2: You you start to bottom and you learn how to 1309 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:26,440 Speaker 2: build a roster, and you just you get the opportunity 1310 01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:28,000 Speaker 2: to do so, and you you just you stick to 1311 01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:31,480 Speaker 2: your guns.

First round surprises we have with 1376 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 1: the Lions running back Jamar Gibbs. Then they trade their 1377 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:58,000 Speaker 1: running back DeAndre Swift to the Eagles, and look, the 1378 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:00,600 Speaker 1: Eagles have had a hole to fill in the batfields. 1379 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:04,280 Speaker 1: Is Miles Sanders left in free agency. So Harry Roseman, 1380 01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:07,400 Speaker 1: how Howie Roseman basically knows what he's doing. He knew 1381 01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 1: he had to fill that hole. Miles Sanders has gone. 1382 01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:11,440 Speaker 1: What do they do? They get de Andre Swift. It's 1383 01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:13,720 Speaker 1: amazing what they do is plug up the holes and 1384 01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:16,679 Speaker 1: he's now on the Eagles. Eagles never rebuild. They just don't. 1385 01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:20,120 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, because good teams don't have to do that 1386 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:22,799 Speaker 2: because you continue to look, you continually find your weaknesses 1387 01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:26,040 Speaker 2: and you attack those weaknesses via fraigency in the drafts. 1388 01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:29,960 Speaker 2: You never really have a situation where you're like, we 1389 01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:33,400 Speaker 2: need to have sort of this, like you know, this 1390 01:08:33,400 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 2: this time to to reset, to rebuild. And look a 1391 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:38,880 Speaker 2: couple of years ago though, if you do remember that 1392 01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,599 Speaker 2: kind of that transition between the Wentz and and and 1393 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:47,040 Speaker 2: Hurts years was a tat of a reboot. But again, 1394 01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:51,840 Speaker 2: the roster around the quarterbacks was good. It's just the 1395 01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:56,920 Speaker 2: quarterbacks weren't. Weren't weren't those guys And when you have 1396 01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:59,920 Speaker 2: a roster around a poor quarterback, you're not gonna be 1397 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:02,920 Speaker 2: it right, and and the quarterback got fixed, and all 1398 01:09:02,960 --> 01:09:04,160 Speaker 2: of a sudden, boom, here they go. 1399 01:09:04,680 --> 01:09:07,360 Speaker 1: Right, another surprise, I thought, really with the Texas getting 1400 01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:10,439 Speaker 1: back to back picks in the first round, I mean 1401 01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:12,840 Speaker 1: the number two picks C J. Stroud, the quarterback out 1402 01:09:12,840 --> 01:09:14,760 Speaker 1: of Ohio State, and they come right back with Alabama's 1403 01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,080 Speaker 1: Will Anderson Junior, the edge rusher. That was big. 1404 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:20,000 Speaker 2: That was and and you know, everyone said, and you 1405 01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:26,200 Speaker 2: know there's these draft uh these draft uh trade value charts, 1406 01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:29,760 Speaker 2: right the famous, the famous Jimmy Johnson won, and there's 1407 01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:32,439 Speaker 2: been ones that been updated over the years. And after 1408 01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:35,439 Speaker 2: a trade, you know, we'll see on social media especially, 1409 01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:38,680 Speaker 2: hey look there is a here's you know, here's the 1410 01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:42,360 Speaker 2: value of a trade. And and and people said, look, 1411 01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:46,160 Speaker 2: the Texans gave up too much to move up basically 1412 01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:47,920 Speaker 2: three I think it was three spots to move up 1413 01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:53,519 Speaker 2: to three from six. And and and you know they 1414 01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:57,120 Speaker 2: give a first round pick next year. But guys, they 1415 01:09:57,160 --> 01:09:59,680 Speaker 2: have the Browns first round pick next year. They have 1416 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,639 Speaker 2: a the first round pick already, so they have extra 1417 01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:08,120 Speaker 2: assets to use to you get themselves more you know, 1418 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:12,240 Speaker 2: more talent in this draft. So it's to me, it's Okay, 1419 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,479 Speaker 2: to to stretch a little bit, to stretch a little bit, 1420 01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:17,280 Speaker 2: a little bit thin this year, if you have the 1421 01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:21,280 Speaker 2: capital to do next year. So I like what they did. 1422 01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:28,640 Speaker 2: I will, I guess I'll kind of be I'll be 1423 01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 2: found with the aggressive this because you have the opportunity 1424 01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:34,400 Speaker 2: to have a first run pick next year already. 1425 01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:37,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right about that. Now in a round two 1426 01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:40,639 Speaker 1: look at the Joey Port of the cornerback, I was surprised. Look, 1427 01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:43,599 Speaker 1: I'm not a judge of talent, but what I've read, 1428 01:10:43,960 --> 01:10:45,680 Speaker 1: I thought that he'd go a lot high, maybe a 1429 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 1: top fifteen pick. He goes at thirty two to the 1430 01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:51,560 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers, and it allows them to follow in the 1431 01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:53,759 Speaker 1: footsteps of his father, you know. So that's a pretty 1432 01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:56,040 Speaker 1: good deal. And he's going to learn and maybe start 1433 01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 1: against with Patrick Peterson. That's gonna help him too. That 1434 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:01,240 Speaker 1: helps you grow absolutely. 1435 01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 2: And uh, you know, Joey Porter long arms, but I 1436 01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:07,360 Speaker 2: think a little bit stiffer in the hips. So I 1437 01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:08,800 Speaker 2: think that's why he kind of fell to the beginning 1438 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:10,799 Speaker 2: of the second round. It just you it happens instead 1439 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:13,639 Speaker 2: of going first rounding, this goes pick thirty two. It's 1440 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:20,839 Speaker 2: for him though, it's he gets to go one because 1441 01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:23,920 Speaker 2: of the second round status. He's a four year contract, 1442 01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:27,439 Speaker 2: not a five year contract, and so it allows him 1443 01:11:27,479 --> 01:11:28,960 Speaker 2: to hit for agency a year earlier. 1444 01:11:30,360 --> 01:11:33,839 Speaker 1: HM. That's interesting for him. Really is unusual. 1445 01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:39,400 Speaker 2: It's the way the contracts work out. A first round 1446 01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:42,040 Speaker 2: pick has five years, the fifth year is a team 1447 01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:47,680 Speaker 2: option the end, and if you're not a first round pick, 1448 01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:49,120 Speaker 2: you get a four year deal, so you get your 1449 01:11:49,200 --> 01:11:50,320 Speaker 2: year closer Fregency. 1450 01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:54,080 Speaker 1: Interesting, Okay, that's good. You know. I look at the 1451 01:11:54,080 --> 01:11:57,639 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions and they got this safety Brian Branch forty 1452 01:11:57,640 --> 01:12:00,680 Speaker 1: fifth overall. Had a pretty good draft. The Lions had 1453 01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 1: a pretty good draft. They got the quarterback for Tennessee, 1454 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:05,840 Speaker 1: Hendon Hooker, who basically go was injured most of the season, 1455 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:08,000 Speaker 1: but he could come around and become a pretty decent 1456 01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:10,120 Speaker 1: at least back up, maybe get a shot with the 1457 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. They got their running back Gibbs, tight end 1458 01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:16,920 Speaker 1: Sam Laporta, linebacker Jack Campbell, and that they got Branch. 1459 01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:19,599 Speaker 1: So I think that they had a pretty good draft. 1460 01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:22,040 Speaker 1: You could ask obviously the Eagles number one, but I 1461 01:12:22,040 --> 01:12:24,280 Speaker 1: think the Lions may have been a top five draft 1462 01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 1: pick class. 1463 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:28,280 Speaker 2: Except They took the running back and off the ball 1464 01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:30,600 Speaker 2: linebacker in the first round, which are two positions that 1465 01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:33,439 Speaker 2: are not valued in the first round. So they kind 1466 01:12:33,439 --> 01:12:36,000 Speaker 2: of don't pass get you know, they just their process. 1467 01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:36,880 Speaker 2: I don't think was great. 1468 01:12:38,720 --> 01:12:41,800 Speaker 1: Well they got, but I think Branch is gonna have 1469 01:12:42,680 --> 01:12:45,640 Speaker 1: he won't have to go in there instantly and be effective. 1470 01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,439 Speaker 1: I think he won't have a lot of pressure to 1471 01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:51,360 Speaker 1: be a starter instantly. I think he's gonna learn because 1472 01:12:51,360 --> 01:12:54,840 Speaker 1: they got a CJ. Gardener Johnson over there, so I think, yeah, 1473 01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:56,960 Speaker 1: So I think that's a good thing. I know it's 1474 01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:59,880 Speaker 1: funny because the draft quarterbacks, I guess because of the 1475 01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:03,479 Speaker 1: the salaries they make, you have to be instant started 1476 01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:06,280 Speaker 1: when you were quarterback drafted early on, but when you're 1477 01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:10,200 Speaker 1: any other position player, give you time to learn at times. 1478 01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:15,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're a player drafted in the first two 1479 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:18,400 Speaker 2: or three rounds, you're and you're not a quarterback, you're 1480 01:13:18,439 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 2: playing almost immediately. You're not sitting. 1481 01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:24,160 Speaker 1: And that's the way it should be. 1482 01:13:24,680 --> 01:13:28,160 Speaker 2: So like you're you're going like immediately, so there's no 1483 01:13:28,320 --> 01:13:31,639 Speaker 2: like waiting, like you're your day one mini camp. You're 1484 01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:34,800 Speaker 2: getting that starting spot probably or or close to it 1485 01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:35,439 Speaker 2: at one B. 1486 01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:38,360 Speaker 1: Have you seen anything like that. I mean, you were 1487 01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:42,000 Speaker 1: drafted late, so you know, I guess you would just 1488 01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:44,879 Speaker 1: hate to say this kind of thankfully you're on the roster, right. 1489 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:49,120 Speaker 2: I think about it like that at the time, But yeah, 1490 01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:52,439 Speaker 2: I mean I was. I guess I was glad to 1491 01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:55,600 Speaker 2: have an opportunity to you know, to to play in 1492 01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:58,000 Speaker 2: the league and get an opportunity. But I never thought 1493 01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:00,960 Speaker 2: of it other than those terms. I was playing exactly, 1494 01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:03,080 Speaker 2: but I knew that I could be cut at any time, 1495 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:05,639 Speaker 2: like that was always in the back of my mind, right, But. 1496 01:14:05,640 --> 01:14:07,719 Speaker 1: You weren't, And that's great. You had eight good years 1497 01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:10,519 Speaker 1: and that's great. It really is great memories. We'll talk 1498 01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:14,000 Speaker 1: about them someday.

Look. 1675 01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:20,559 Speaker 1: One of them we kind of touched on it early on. 1676 01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:24,679 Speaker 1: Why do players who aren't picked on day one leave. 1677 01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:27,120 Speaker 1: I mean, would you have left if you were a 1678 01:22:27,200 --> 01:22:29,479 Speaker 1: day one, if you were picked to be day one 1679 01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:32,599 Speaker 1: and everybody in the preseason mock drift said that Jess's 1680 01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:34,320 Speaker 1: gonna be day one and you won't pick day one, 1681 01:22:34,320 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 1: would you have left? 1682 01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:40,920 Speaker 2: So I don't know if I would have left. I 1683 01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:44,920 Speaker 2: probably would have stayed. But there were there were a 1684 01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:47,880 Speaker 2: couple of players that there were four, I think four 1685 01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:52,559 Speaker 2: players that were not drafted around one that were invited 1686 01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:58,440 Speaker 2: to UH to Kansas City, Will Levis, Joey Porter Jr. 1687 01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:02,840 Speaker 2: Keon White, and Brian Branch. The only one that came 1688 01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:06,920 Speaker 2: back was Brian Branch, safety from from Alabama, and Brian 1689 01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:10,320 Speaker 2: Branch said after he was drafted, he was drafted forty 1690 01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:13,200 Speaker 2: fifth overall. I said, I'm blessed to be here. Not 1691 01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:15,559 Speaker 2: too many people can do this, To shake the commissioner's hand, 1692 01:23:15,560 --> 01:23:16,680 Speaker 2: to be in front of the fans like that, to 1693 01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:18,880 Speaker 2: the interact with everybody, the vibe consider right now, I'm 1694 01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:24,479 Speaker 2: just happy I participated in that. So I get his 1695 01:23:24,479 --> 01:23:26,240 Speaker 2: point of view, like he waited your entire life for 1696 01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:29,680 Speaker 2: this now. Yeah, Brian Branch was also you know, he 1697 01:23:29,760 --> 01:23:32,040 Speaker 2: was a maybe first round draft pick, Like there was 1698 01:23:32,439 --> 01:23:34,720 Speaker 2: you know, the mock drafts had him like, yeah, maybe 1699 01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:37,040 Speaker 2: the Eagles at thirty take him like he wasn't a 1700 01:23:37,040 --> 01:23:41,000 Speaker 2: guy that was expected to go like will Levis in 1701 01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:45,200 Speaker 2: the top four or five. So I understand him staying around. 1702 01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:47,280 Speaker 2: I'm sure he prepared for the for the for the 1703 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:49,280 Speaker 2: for the idea that I might be here one or 1704 01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:53,800 Speaker 2: two days like that that's a realistic scenario for him. 1705 01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:56,200 Speaker 2: Was that, Yeah, I'm going to be here a couple 1706 01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 2: of days. I'm I'm, I'm you know, I'm, I'm just 1707 01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:01,479 Speaker 2: gonna be a couple of days. It's it's it's gonna happen. 1708 01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:08,200 Speaker 1: But but he was together when he sung to meet 1709 01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:09,840 Speaker 1: the commiss to shake his hand on TV. 1710 01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:15,680 Speaker 2: Why not will Levis. Will Levis was not playing on 1711 01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:18,880 Speaker 2: being there two days. He probably had the one suit 1712 01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:21,840 Speaker 2: he was wearing for the first round for for for 1713 01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:24,680 Speaker 2: the green room, and one suit he had brought with 1714 01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:28,360 Speaker 2: him for his press conference the next day, right, And 1715 01:24:29,880 --> 01:24:33,479 Speaker 2: I was he just did have to be there, and 1716 01:24:33,800 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 2: maybe the embarrassment of it, maybe he didn't want to 1717 01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:38,439 Speaker 2: be sitting there all day again with the camera on him. 1718 01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:39,400 Speaker 2: I get it. 1719 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:41,960 Speaker 1: With every pick that they missed, they went to the 1720 01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:43,920 Speaker 1: green room and showed him with his family and his growth. 1721 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:46,639 Speaker 2: So I understand both sides of it. I understand Brian 1722 01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:48,880 Speaker 2: Branch saying like, look, man, this is a one time 1723 01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:52,080 Speaker 2: time opportunity. I want to experience this. I want to 1724 01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:56,679 Speaker 2: be here in Kansas City. I deserve this. I'm gonna stay. 1725 01:24:57,120 --> 01:24:59,360 Speaker 2: I totally get that. I got the other side of it, 1726 01:24:59,439 --> 01:25:02,640 Speaker 2: saying like, hey man, this is embarrassing for me. I 1727 01:25:03,120 --> 01:25:05,840 Speaker 2: got the cameras in my face. Everyone's every time a 1728 01:25:05,880 --> 01:25:09,680 Speaker 2: pick has made. That's not me. The camera's on me, 1729 01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:11,960 Speaker 2: it's on my family, on me and my I think 1730 01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:14,799 Speaker 2: that was his girlfriend with him, Me and my girlfriend 1731 01:25:14,960 --> 01:25:17,400 Speaker 2: or fiance or wife. I think one of those three. 1732 01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:21,559 Speaker 2: I believe, you know, I'm I'm you know, I'm tired 1733 01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:24,920 Speaker 2: of me being the focus of the telecast. I get 1734 01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:26,879 Speaker 2: his point of view. Now. The other the other players, 1735 01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:29,800 Speaker 2: they weren't right, Brian Branch wasn't the focus of the 1736 01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:33,120 Speaker 2: cameras every time someone else was drafted. So I understand 1737 01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:35,600 Speaker 2: him feeling more comfortable to stay or Kean White or 1738 01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:38,800 Speaker 2: or Joey Porter Jr. So I get both sides of this. 1739 01:25:38,840 --> 01:25:40,280 Speaker 2: We're like, we'll love it. Was like I'm out of here. 1740 01:25:40,360 --> 01:25:44,840 Speaker 2: I'm done going home or branch designed to stay right. 1741 01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:47,280 Speaker 1: And I'd like to know the difference as to when 1742 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:49,200 Speaker 1: you were drafted. Was it back in New York City? 1743 01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:50,080 Speaker 1: Radio City Musical? 1744 01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:50,240 Speaker 6: Ye? 1745 01:25:51,600 --> 01:25:53,120 Speaker 1: So what's the major difference? 1746 01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 2: Well, A, the other difference is obviously, you know, it's 1747 01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:02,160 Speaker 2: it's just now it's even more of a production, like 1748 01:26:02,240 --> 01:26:05,880 Speaker 2: it's a three day event. It wasn't three days back 1749 01:26:05,880 --> 01:26:10,080 Speaker 2: when when my draft, you know, they they had more 1750 01:26:10,160 --> 01:26:12,280 Speaker 2: players went to the draft. I think I think more 1751 01:26:12,320 --> 01:26:15,000 Speaker 2: players now stay home, you know, they don't really need 1752 01:26:15,040 --> 01:26:15,960 Speaker 2: it to be at the draft? 1753 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:18,080 Speaker 1: Is mandatory? Does the NFL? 1754 01:26:18,720 --> 01:26:19,040 Speaker 2: Okay? 1755 01:26:19,080 --> 01:26:21,599 Speaker 1: So so when when these first rounders come out there 1756 01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:24,719 Speaker 1: with their family, there's the NFL pick up the tab? Yeah, 1757 01:26:24,840 --> 01:26:26,000 Speaker 1: when the team picks it up. 1758 01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:31,880 Speaker 2: No, the NFL does you know players? I think also too, 1759 01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:35,320 Speaker 2: it was New York City. I think there was a 1760 01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:37,479 Speaker 2: you know, you wanted to be in Manhattan for this. 1761 01:26:37,720 --> 01:26:39,559 Speaker 2: I don't know if there's the same sense of like, 1762 01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:41,599 Speaker 2: I want to be in Kansas City for the draft. 1763 01:26:42,280 --> 01:26:45,360 Speaker 2: Next year it's in Detroit, Detroit, Yeah, And so I 1764 01:26:45,400 --> 01:26:49,559 Speaker 2: think there's also you know, there's also that thought as well, 1765 01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:55,479 Speaker 2: where you know, again, people wanted to be in New 1766 01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:59,920 Speaker 2: York City.

How shocked. 1787 01:27:56,680 --> 01:27:59,759 Speaker 1: Are you with the crowd response? They said three hundred 1788 01:27:59,760 --> 01:28:02,519 Speaker 1: thous some people. I can't believe that number. Really, I 1789 01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:04,200 Speaker 1: think it was the first day. I think it was 1790 01:28:04,200 --> 01:28:06,640 Speaker 1: that many people. Really, Yeah, And they said they the 1791 01:28:07,400 --> 01:28:11,280 Speaker 1: economy of Kansas City, the Convention of Visitors. Buewer said 1792 01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:15,519 Speaker 1: they they brought like sixteen million dollars into Kansas City. Amazing. 1793 01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:19,080 Speaker 1: I can't believe it. I really can't. 1794 01:28:20,280 --> 01:28:21,760 Speaker 2: It looked like that many people. Again, it was a 1795 01:28:21,760 --> 01:28:25,760 Speaker 2: sea of red Chiefs fans. Man, they're passionate. Again, it's 1796 01:28:25,800 --> 01:28:29,840 Speaker 2: a pretty big deal. Like I'm in Charlotte and I 1797 01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:32,160 Speaker 2: know or you know, the Panthers owner talked about wanting 1798 01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:35,680 Speaker 2: to have the Draft here at some point. You know, 1799 01:28:35,680 --> 01:28:37,360 Speaker 2: they talked about wanting the Super Bowl at some point. 1800 01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:40,519 Speaker 2: They need they're get a new stadium for that to happen. 1801 01:28:40,600 --> 01:28:43,320 Speaker 2: But it'd be a big event. Man. People want to 1802 01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:47,000 Speaker 2: attend these these and again, the draft is you lot 1803 01:28:47,040 --> 01:28:50,320 Speaker 2: sitting and waiting to announce the picks. But there's a 1804 01:28:50,360 --> 01:28:52,240 Speaker 2: lot of things to do with the periphery of the 1805 01:28:52,280 --> 01:28:54,559 Speaker 2: of this event, and I think there's all people want 1806 01:28:54,600 --> 01:28:56,720 Speaker 2: to be I want to say, Hey, I'm at the 1807 01:28:56,800 --> 01:29:00,600 Speaker 2: Draft I'm here at the draft. I'm watching, you know, 1808 01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:04,640 Speaker 2: an event that's that's pretty unique to be part of. 1809 01:29:04,760 --> 01:29:07,519 Speaker 2: And that's why the NFL's the most popular sport in 1810 01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:13,040 Speaker 2: the world, but in our country really is. So then 1811 01:29:13,080 --> 01:29:15,759 Speaker 2: me draft would never get anything like this Baseball draft. 1812 01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:17,400 Speaker 1: The people don't even know what it is. 1813 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:19,760 Speaker 2: You used to be used to be fifty rounds. It's 1814 01:29:19,800 --> 01:29:22,439 Speaker 2: like a five cow change itself. 1815 01:29:23,320 --> 01:29:23,479 Speaker 1: Right. 1816 01:29:23,960 --> 01:29:27,040 Speaker 2: It shows you the support the league has. 1817 01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:29,960 Speaker 1: Right And now, I said coming into this segment, there's 1818 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:31,840 Speaker 1: nothing better than this in the world of sports, in 1819 01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:34,360 Speaker 1: any sport. And that's a game seven, winn will go home, 1820 01:29:34,720 --> 01:29:38,320 Speaker 1: that's basically. And today we have that Golden State Sacramento 1821 01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:42,000 Speaker 1: Game seven in Sacramento, the Aaron Fox, I guess he's 1822 01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:44,840 Speaker 1: playing with that broken finger. And honestly, right now, I 1823 01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:46,519 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of people would like to see 1824 01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:50,120 Speaker 1: the Golden Story Sacramento and the Kings moving on. They 1825 01:29:50,120 --> 01:29:52,840 Speaker 1: could score. They got the NBA's best offense. They beat 1826 01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:55,639 Speaker 1: him badly in Golden State the other night. I was shocked, 1827 01:29:55,680 --> 01:29:57,960 Speaker 1: and you said this earlier, Golden State looked like they 1828 01:29:57,960 --> 01:29:59,360 Speaker 1: were sleepwalking in that game. 1829 01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:04,640 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I was. I was. I was genuinely surprised 1830 01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:07,800 Speaker 2: that the Golden State Warriors lost that game because during 1831 01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:10,439 Speaker 2: this this dynasty run of there, it's just four titles 1832 01:30:10,479 --> 01:30:14,960 Speaker 2: and I think it's eight years now, they would never 1833 01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:18,000 Speaker 2: have lost this game in previous years. I mean, I 1834 01:30:18,040 --> 01:30:19,960 Speaker 2: guess to take that back, they didn't lose the Cavs 1835 01:30:20,000 --> 01:30:22,559 Speaker 2: of three to one, but in other in most years, 1836 01:30:23,320 --> 01:30:26,760 Speaker 2: they're not losing round one to kind of an upstart 1837 01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:29,080 Speaker 2: Kings team, right, a team that hadn't been the playoffs 1838 01:30:29,680 --> 01:30:31,840 Speaker 2: in so many years, and they're doing it at home, 1839 01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:35,320 Speaker 2: where the Warriors even this season, are just so much 1840 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:38,160 Speaker 2: better than they are on the road. And it's not 1841 01:30:38,200 --> 01:30:40,800 Speaker 2: that they lost, it's that they didn't. Really they weren't 1842 01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:44,320 Speaker 2: in the game ever. The Warriors were behind the entire 1843 01:30:44,360 --> 01:30:47,559 Speaker 2: game by double digits, and every time they sort of 1844 01:30:47,560 --> 01:30:49,120 Speaker 2: made it run, and they made a couple runs in 1845 01:30:49,160 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 2: the third quarter, the Kings came right back, you know, 1846 01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,280 Speaker 2: lay up three, lay up up seven, like you know, say, 1847 01:30:55,280 --> 01:30:58,160 Speaker 2: seven points took very quickly, and the Warriors just kind 1848 01:30:58,160 --> 01:31:00,120 Speaker 2: of never gott in a rhythm and the Kings just 1849 01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:02,400 Speaker 2: just just just took it from them. And I think 1850 01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:06,320 Speaker 2: it was pretty shocking because the Warriors have been atrocious 1851 01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:08,519 Speaker 2: on the road. They only have eleven road wins all season. 1852 01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:11,439 Speaker 2: And when they won Game five on the road, and 1853 01:31:11,520 --> 01:31:13,599 Speaker 2: then a lot of the connectional wisdom was like, well, 1854 01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:16,559 Speaker 2: this is over now, right, They're going back home, and 1855 01:31:16,720 --> 01:31:19,040 Speaker 2: the Warriors don't lose these games. They don't lose these 1856 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:21,920 Speaker 2: games at home in Round one to a team like 1857 01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:24,000 Speaker 2: the Kings, and they lost. 1858 01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:27,439 Speaker 1: But I will Sacrament tough at home. They really are. 1859 01:31:27,600 --> 01:31:29,200 Speaker 2: I will caution people on this though. 1860 01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:33,000 Speaker 1: Yeah everyone, it's a point. 1861 01:31:33,040 --> 01:31:35,400 Speaker 2: It's the Kings of everybody, a point and a half 1862 01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:41,920 Speaker 2: is I I know people are going to be inclined 1863 01:31:41,920 --> 01:31:44,599 Speaker 2: to pick the Kings because, as I mentioned, the Warriors 1864 01:31:44,600 --> 01:31:47,200 Speaker 2: are very poor on the road. Whoever they just did, 1865 01:31:47,360 --> 01:31:50,479 Speaker 2: they just won Game five on the road, So you know, 1866 01:31:50,560 --> 01:31:53,240 Speaker 2: the recent sample size would suggests that a very small 1867 01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:55,200 Speaker 2: sample size that you know, they just didn't win a 1868 01:31:55,200 --> 01:31:58,559 Speaker 2: game on the road. But again, they're the champs. They're 1869 01:31:58,600 --> 01:32:02,280 Speaker 2: the champs. They have played in a million game sevens, 1870 01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:06,719 Speaker 2: They're seasons for this, they're ready for this. I would 1871 01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:09,240 Speaker 2: not count them out because they're qute unquote poor on 1872 01:32:09,280 --> 01:32:09,719 Speaker 2: the road. 1873 01:32:10,120 --> 01:32:13,080 Speaker 1: All right, that doesn't mean anything. You're right that doesn't. 1874 01:32:14,400 --> 01:32:17,519 Speaker 2: The war and the Kings, and they very much. They 1875 01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:20,720 Speaker 2: impressed me a lot, you know, in game six, but 1876 01:32:20,760 --> 01:32:24,960 Speaker 2: they have not played a game seven. Right, different atmosphere, 1877 01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:27,840 Speaker 2: different intensity. This game is at home too, that there's 1878 01:32:27,880 --> 01:32:30,519 Speaker 2: gonna be a nervous tension. There's gonna be this tension 1879 01:32:30,560 --> 01:32:33,960 Speaker 2: in the crowd. How do they handle that. It's gonna 1880 01:32:33,960 --> 01:32:36,160 Speaker 2: be of course it's gonna be incredible crowd today, but 1881 01:32:36,320 --> 01:32:40,280 Speaker 2: just the tension of that environment. So I just wouldn't 1882 01:32:40,320 --> 01:32:43,320 Speaker 2: count out to Warriors in this spot. The question is 1883 01:32:43,360 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 2: I think now is like what's the what is what's 1884 01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:49,320 Speaker 2: a better matchup? Is it? Is it Kings Lakers or 1885 01:32:49,360 --> 01:32:50,200 Speaker 2: Warriors Lakers. 1886 01:32:51,920 --> 01:32:54,280 Speaker 1: I'd rather see Warriors lacer You know, it's funny because 1887 01:32:54,320 --> 01:32:56,240 Speaker 1: if you go back and look at the history of sports, 1888 01:32:56,439 --> 01:32:58,720 Speaker 1: they used to have teams that dominated for so long, 1889 01:32:58,760 --> 01:33:02,840 Speaker 1: the Celtics in the NBA, Yankees in baseball, the Montreal Canadians, 1890 01:33:02,840 --> 01:33:04,920 Speaker 1: and the NHL, and you don't see that anymore. And 1891 01:33:04,960 --> 01:33:07,200 Speaker 1: I think maybe it's healthier that you have a team 1892 01:33:07,240 --> 01:33:09,680 Speaker 1: that golden state. Maybe they move aside and let let 1893 01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:12,080 Speaker 1: other teams take their place. Maybe that's better in the 1894 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:12,919 Speaker 1: world of sports. 1895 01:33:14,640 --> 01:33:19,880 Speaker 2: Well, it's interesting. We would you say that, and the 1896 01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:23,320 Speaker 2: TV ratings would say no, the TV ratings would say 1897 01:33:23,320 --> 01:33:26,280 Speaker 2: that we watch dynasties more than we watch individual one offs. 1898 01:33:28,280 --> 01:33:30,120 Speaker 2: The only sport where that seems to not be the 1899 01:33:30,160 --> 01:33:34,040 Speaker 2: case is college football, where it's so regional based that 1900 01:33:34,120 --> 01:33:36,599 Speaker 2: we tend to just like, okay, we're tired of seeing 1901 01:33:36,640 --> 01:33:38,519 Speaker 2: the same SEC team win over and over again. The 1902 01:33:38,600 --> 01:33:42,080 Speaker 2: ratings for the championship games tend to fall down, but 1903 01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:48,519 Speaker 2: most often in football, basketball, baseball, these dynasties have the 1904 01:33:48,560 --> 01:33:53,360 Speaker 2: best players, and we're trying to watch the best players play. 1905 01:33:53,080 --> 01:33:56,000 Speaker 1: And I think market size. I mean, if the NBA 1906 01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:59,040 Speaker 1: executives had their way, they'd rather see Golden State win. 1907 01:33:59,320 --> 01:34:00,960 Speaker 1: They got the start the Bay. 1908 01:34:01,640 --> 01:34:04,920 Speaker 2: Sacramento is technically the Bay Area, but not not not 1909 01:34:04,960 --> 01:34:08,120 Speaker 2: really not really to get you get you get, you know, 1910 01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:12,160 Speaker 2: just go get Oakland to hatee. Oakland's in a tough 1911 01:34:12,160 --> 01:34:14,080 Speaker 2: spot because they're not rooting for the Lakers and they're 1912 01:34:14,080 --> 01:34:19,760 Speaker 2: not roding for the Warriors. It's gonna both teams. Poor Oakland. Man. 1913 01:34:19,880 --> 01:34:22,880 Speaker 2: We had had had three pro teams four years ago 1914 01:34:22,920 --> 01:34:27,880 Speaker 2: and I have zero, and uh, you know, I'm just 1915 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:31,320 Speaker 2: as a Lakers fan I don't know who. I'd rather 1916 01:34:31,439 --> 01:34:34,000 Speaker 2: probably play the Kings. I know the Kings can score 1917 01:34:34,040 --> 01:34:37,840 Speaker 2: a lot. They they're young, energetic. But the Warriors again, 1918 01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:41,760 Speaker 2: like there's a worry in me that they can just 1919 01:34:41,840 --> 01:34:44,120 Speaker 2: you know, Seph Kirry can have that forty point game, right, 1920 01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:47,720 Speaker 2: Clay can have that forty point game. The Kings just 1921 01:34:47,880 --> 01:34:50,639 Speaker 2: I don't think that as reliable right now to do 1922 01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:51,360 Speaker 2: things like that. 1923 01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:53,720 Speaker 1: Well, I think there's a pride factor. I know it 1924 01:34:53,800 --> 01:34:55,840 Speaker 1: sounds stupid, but I think you guys like Curry and 1925 01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:59,360 Speaker 1: Thompson and Draymond, they've they've been even Aaron jol Wiggins. 1926 01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:01,600 Speaker 1: You know, they've been to the postseason. They know what 1927 01:35:01,640 --> 01:35:03,280 Speaker 1: it takes, and you know they don't want to lose 1928 01:35:03,320 --> 01:35:05,000 Speaker 1: that title. They've they've been there, done that, and then 1929 01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:07,880 Speaker 1: they want to keep it, you know. And this pride 1930 01:35:08,040 --> 01:35:10,840 Speaker 1: a lot of pride fact absolutely, you know, and you 1931 01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:13,080 Speaker 1: know you've seen that. You've you've been involved with sports 1932 01:35:13,120 --> 01:35:15,680 Speaker 1: and you know I've seen it with sports teams. But 1933 01:35:16,280 --> 01:35:19,240 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens today. But again, you talk about pride, 1934 01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:21,120 Speaker 1: I mean, no one has shown it even better in 1935 01:35:21,120 --> 01:35:25,080 Speaker 1: these playoffs than Lebron James. Think about that I mean, well, 1936 01:35:25,120 --> 01:35:27,360 Speaker 1: he came to life. He looked like a twenty year old. 1937 01:35:27,439 --> 01:35:29,360 Speaker 1: Though he's been playing in the playoffs. 1938 01:35:30,000 --> 01:35:33,200 Speaker 2: Lebron's had interesting playoffs. You know, he is not he's 1939 01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:36,800 Speaker 2: thirty eight. He's just not going to give you the 1940 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:41,439 Speaker 2: thirty seven, nine and seven games anymore. This is not 1941 01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:44,760 Speaker 2: what he does, right, And I think what we've seen 1942 01:35:44,760 --> 01:35:49,160 Speaker 2: with the Lakers two is, you know, every game there's 1943 01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:53,640 Speaker 2: a different you know, supporting cast member who's going to 1944 01:35:53,720 --> 01:35:56,280 Speaker 2: be kind of the third option. Right, So we know Lebron, 1945 01:35:56,320 --> 01:35:57,680 Speaker 2: we know there's a D and I wish a D 1946 01:35:57,800 --> 01:36:01,240 Speaker 2: would just be way more consistent. Let's just frustrate. You know, 1947 01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:03,559 Speaker 2: guy can average thirty points a game if if he 1948 01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 2: wanted to, right, he just doesn't. But then there's you know, 1949 01:36:06,479 --> 01:36:08,400 Speaker 2: is it the Austin Reeves game? Right? Is it the 1950 01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:10,720 Speaker 2: is it the Hotchemora game? Is it the is it 1951 01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:11,960 Speaker 2: the Dangel Russell game? 1952 01:36:12,040 --> 01:36:12,160 Speaker 6: Right? 1953 01:36:12,160 --> 01:36:14,839 Speaker 2: And we saw in game six Russell at thirty one points. 1954 01:36:15,240 --> 01:36:18,960 Speaker 2: I think we're seeing Lebron early in games trying to 1955 01:36:19,000 --> 01:36:21,880 Speaker 2: figure out who that guy is gonna be. And you know, 1956 01:36:21,920 --> 01:36:25,400 Speaker 2: maybe he's taking less shots, he's expending a little bit 1957 01:36:25,479 --> 01:36:28,240 Speaker 2: less energy trying to, you know, so he can figure 1958 01:36:28,280 --> 01:36:31,120 Speaker 2: out who's going to help him tonight. And so you're 1959 01:36:31,120 --> 01:36:33,920 Speaker 2: not gonna get those thirty five point Lebron games. You're 1960 01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:36,800 Speaker 2: gonna get twenty five points or twenty four points. And 1961 01:36:37,840 --> 01:36:39,880 Speaker 2: that seems to be what's working for him so far 1962 01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:43,120 Speaker 2: in the play and looked to be fair. Anthony Davis 1963 01:36:44,040 --> 01:36:46,960 Speaker 2: was supposed to be the guy that took over for Lebron, like, this. 1964 01:36:46,960 --> 01:36:49,000 Speaker 1: Is why he brought it playoff series. 1965 01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:55,040 Speaker 2: He's playing, well who Ad is? Yeah, he's playing, but 1966 01:36:55,439 --> 01:36:58,559 Speaker 2: he's still like it's just I think he could be 1967 01:36:58,600 --> 01:36:59,280 Speaker 2: so much better. 1968 01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:03,599 Speaker 1: He's giving consistent double digit rebo games too. 1969 01:37:04,560 --> 01:37:06,720 Speaker 2: Lebron was supposed to be aightyes, supposed to be that guy. 1970 01:37:06,760 --> 01:37:09,760 Speaker 2: Where like Lebron at thirty eight, like, hey man, I 1971 01:37:09,800 --> 01:37:11,240 Speaker 2: can still you know, I can still make the game 1972 01:37:11,240 --> 01:37:13,640 Speaker 2: winning shot at game time shot. I can still be 1973 01:37:13,760 --> 01:37:16,800 Speaker 2: that guy, but I need you to be the bellcount 1974 01:37:16,840 --> 01:37:19,519 Speaker 2: for most of the game. And I think Ad has 1975 01:37:19,680 --> 01:37:23,200 Speaker 2: just not been that guy for most of the time 1976 01:37:23,200 --> 01:37:24,000 Speaker 2: they've been together. 1977 01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:27,160 Speaker 1: Right, No, you're right, he's Jeff Schwartz. He's been that 1978 01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:29,240 Speaker 1: guy all the time. And get him on Twitter at 1979 01:37:29,280 --> 01:37:32,400 Speaker 1: Jeff Schwartz GEO F. F. Schwartz at Andy Furman FSR. 1980 01:37:32,520 --> 01:37:34,639 Speaker 1: We'll read him, we'll retweet him. Well bet he yet 1981 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:36,960 Speaker 1: give us a holler at eight seven to seven ninety 1982 01:37:37,040 --> 01:37:39,760 Speaker 1: nine on Fox. That translates to eight seven seven nine 1983 01:37:39,840 --> 01:37:42,080 Speaker 1: nine six sixty three sixty nine. We've got the playing 1984 01:37:42,120 --> 01:37:44,200 Speaker 1: game at the end of this hour. But right now 1985 01:37:44,680 --> 01:37:48,599 Speaker 1: we've got some really good questions on these picks that's next, 1986 01:37:50,280 --> 01:37:53,839 Speaker 1: some really big reaches and they're all yours coming right up. Okay, 1987 01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:56,720 Speaker 1: he is Jeff Schwartz on Andy Furman and we are 1988 01:37:56,920 --> 01:38:00,840 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports Radio from the ti 1989 01:38:00,920 --> 01:38:04,320 Speaker 1: iraq dot Com studios, and a couple of players right here, 1990 01:38:04,360 --> 01:38:08,639 Speaker 1: and one of them is John Michael Schmidts. Okay, and 1991 01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:11,240 Speaker 1: you would know about these guys because they're big guys, 1992 01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:13,879 Speaker 1: and you're a big guy. He's about three hundred pounds 1993 01:38:13,880 --> 01:38:15,960 Speaker 1: sixty four and I gotta believe the giants who picked 1994 01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:19,000 Speaker 1: him at fifty seven on the second round. He's going 1995 01:38:19,040 --> 01:38:21,759 Speaker 1: to start at center like tomorrow out of the University 1996 01:38:21,800 --> 01:38:24,400 Speaker 1: of Minnesota. He can't go wrong. You can't go wrong, 1997 01:38:24,439 --> 01:38:27,120 Speaker 1: you know. The late Paul Brown, the founder of the 1998 01:38:27,160 --> 01:38:30,240 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals, said something very smart. In one of his 1999 01:38:30,280 --> 01:38:33,240 Speaker 1: books that I read, it says it's what's up front 2000 01:38:33,280 --> 01:38:36,360 Speaker 1: that counts because the first player he ever picked in 2001 01:38:36,400 --> 01:38:39,080 Speaker 1: the National Football League when the Bengals were formed, was 2002 01:38:39,120 --> 01:38:40,120 Speaker 1: an offensive center. 2003 01:38:40,880 --> 01:38:43,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, he will be the Giants starter immediately at center. 2004 01:38:43,960 --> 01:38:45,559 Speaker 2: It's a very good draft pick by the Giants. 2005 01:38:45,920 --> 01:38:49,080 Speaker 1: Yes, he's big, and they compare him to the center 2006 01:38:49,120 --> 01:38:53,680 Speaker 1: of the Kansas City Chiefs with Humphrey, which may not 2007 01:38:53,720 --> 01:38:54,080 Speaker 1: be fair. 2008 01:38:54,360 --> 01:38:59,360 Speaker 2: No, that's not the good Combarisson, all right, don't know who. 2009 01:38:59,360 --> 01:39:02,840 Speaker 2: I don't know who that, but that's not what I 2010 01:39:02,880 --> 01:39:05,320 Speaker 2: would I would not compare those two guys. 2011 01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:08,640 Speaker 1: You know, you played the offensive line, and it's somewhat interchangeable, 2012 01:39:08,680 --> 01:39:11,360 Speaker 1: isn't it. You played left side, right side, but the center. 2013 01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:14,559 Speaker 1: Basically he's basically stuck at center. I mean I don't 2014 01:39:14,560 --> 01:39:15,479 Speaker 1: see him playing a guard. 2015 01:39:15,800 --> 01:39:17,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. For the most part, centers are There's a couple 2016 01:39:17,800 --> 01:39:21,479 Speaker 2: of guys like the kid Joe Tipman, who was drafted. 2017 01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:26,120 Speaker 2: Who is he drafted by second round by the Jets. 2018 01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:29,760 Speaker 2: I think, let me make sure here, he's like six 2019 01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:35,639 Speaker 2: six uh yeah, but Jets. Yeah, Joe Tipman, he's huge. 2020 01:39:35,880 --> 01:39:40,800 Speaker 2: He's six six three fifteen. He can play guard. He 2021 01:39:40,840 --> 01:39:44,600 Speaker 2: played guard at Wisconsin as well. I believe tackle. He 2022 01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:48,720 Speaker 2: played all five positions. He might six six is very 2023 01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:51,040 Speaker 2: tall for a center. I could see him playing guard 2024 01:39:51,200 --> 01:39:53,240 Speaker 2: center in the NFL. But most centers are you know, 2025 01:39:53,320 --> 01:39:56,960 Speaker 2: six two sixty three, they're just playing center. Uh. You 2026 01:39:57,000 --> 01:40:01,760 Speaker 2: mentioned Creed Humphries. He's big for a center, and you 2027 01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:05,880 Speaker 2: know he's gonna just play center, like it's just what 2028 01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:08,920 Speaker 2: That's just what he's gonna do because that's what obviously 2029 01:40:08,960 --> 01:40:13,400 Speaker 2: what position he ends up playing. But yeah, there's there's uh, 2030 01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:16,320 Speaker 2: that's it's a bad conferen John Michael Schmidt. 2031 01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:21,599 Speaker 1: Okay, the Lions on pick number sixty eight, the Tennessee 2032 01:40:21,800 --> 01:40:25,479 Speaker 1: Hendon Hooker quarterback. Now, I remember the last July, about 2033 01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:27,760 Speaker 1: a year ago, they were touting this guy as a 2034 01:40:27,800 --> 01:40:30,719 Speaker 1: Heisman winner. He got hurt, he had the ACL deal. Okay, 2035 01:40:31,280 --> 01:40:35,320 Speaker 1: but now I guess he could rest, relax, rehab, get healthier, 2036 01:40:35,520 --> 01:40:39,439 Speaker 1: and be a somewhat successor the Jared Goff down the road. 2037 01:40:39,439 --> 01:40:42,599 Speaker 1: It's low risk, high reward for the Lions right now. 2038 01:40:42,880 --> 01:40:49,920 Speaker 2: Absolutely, you know. I just he's like twenty six, he's 2039 01:40:50,040 --> 01:40:52,880 Speaker 2: old man, come up a knee injury. I don't know 2040 01:40:53,560 --> 01:41:00,160 Speaker 2: he played a very quarterback from the offense at Tennessee. 2041 01:41:01,320 --> 01:41:04,920 Speaker 2: UF you're the Here's the thing about the draft. Where 2042 01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:09,320 Speaker 2: we sit right now, it's very easy for us to 2043 01:41:09,560 --> 01:41:13,560 Speaker 2: look in the future and say, hey, look, Caleb Williams 2044 01:41:15,200 --> 01:41:18,920 Speaker 2: is is uh is there on the horizon, right, he's 2045 01:41:19,040 --> 01:41:24,280 Speaker 2: us He's quarterback, He's there on the horizon. And Drake 2046 01:41:24,320 --> 01:41:27,800 Speaker 2: May North Carolin's quarterback. They're there for next year. And 2047 01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:30,240 Speaker 2: so if you're a team like the Lions or anyone else, 2048 01:41:30,800 --> 01:41:34,080 Speaker 2: you know, maybe you forego to the quarterback this year 2049 01:41:35,120 --> 01:41:38,479 Speaker 2: looking forward to to using draft capital to go get 2050 01:41:38,680 --> 01:41:41,000 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams next year or Drake may next year. Because 2051 01:41:41,160 --> 01:41:44,120 Speaker 2: if the let's say the Cardinals end up at the 2052 01:41:44,120 --> 01:41:45,960 Speaker 2: top of the draft next year, they might not want 2053 01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:48,920 Speaker 2: to move on from Coler Murray. They contractually they might 2054 01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:50,920 Speaker 2: not even be able to move on from from from 2055 01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:53,280 Speaker 2: Coler Murray. So there might be a chance to trade 2056 01:41:53,360 --> 01:41:57,559 Speaker 2: up and get yourself Caleb Williams. So if you're the Lions, 2057 01:41:57,560 --> 01:41:59,799 Speaker 2: you're you're out of that now, right you have Hayden Hooker. 2058 01:42:00,760 --> 01:42:03,120 Speaker 2: But there's we can do that here and say, hey man, 2059 01:42:03,160 --> 01:42:06,680 Speaker 2: maybe the why should have looked ahead next year? That's 2060 01:42:06,680 --> 01:42:08,120 Speaker 2: what I would say. I would say, you know what, 2061 01:42:08,920 --> 01:42:11,960 Speaker 2: don't draft Hayden Hooker, play the year out with Jared Goff, 2062 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:15,080 Speaker 2: and then next year. You know, I think you go 2063 01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:17,160 Speaker 2: for it next year for one of those guys. 2064 01:42:17,560 --> 01:42:19,880 Speaker 1: But then especially the fact that he had the two 2065 01:42:19,920 --> 01:42:22,639 Speaker 1: things going against him, I think they're the ACL tear 2066 01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:25,040 Speaker 1: and also, as you say, he's twenty five going on 2067 01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:30,000 Speaker 1: twenty six. Yeah, yeah, but again he doesn't have to 2068 01:42:30,080 --> 01:42:31,519 Speaker 1: rush to be ready because he's going to be a 2069 01:42:31,560 --> 01:42:37,680 Speaker 1: long term deal. Yeah, So who knows. 2070 01:42:36,080 --> 01:42:39,160 Speaker 2: I was the best? I just don't. I don't really 2071 01:42:39,800 --> 01:42:43,160 Speaker 2: you if you look across suspected in the NFL right now, 2072 01:42:45,360 --> 01:42:52,880 Speaker 2: most franchise quarterbacks, okay, are going to be first round 2073 01:42:52,960 --> 01:42:58,200 Speaker 2: draft picks or high second round draft. 2074 01:42:58,000 --> 01:43:00,320 Speaker 1: Picks, except if they're drafted by the Jets. 2075 01:43:01,560 --> 01:43:03,479 Speaker 2: Well, the Jets right now have a first round draft pick. 2076 01:43:03,479 --> 01:43:04,519 Speaker 2: That's your quarterback in round. 2077 01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:07,000 Speaker 1: I know, but I'm till the years did several years, past. 2078 01:43:07,680 --> 01:43:10,920 Speaker 2: Couple of years. The best quarterbacks in the NFL, like 2079 01:43:10,920 --> 01:43:15,160 Speaker 2: your franchise quarterbacks, the ones that we consider a franchise quarterback, 2080 01:43:15,640 --> 01:43:19,760 Speaker 2: are most often drafted in the first round or high 2081 01:43:19,760 --> 01:43:23,320 Speaker 2: second round. There are exceptions, Russell Wilson's an exception. Cousins, 2082 01:43:23,479 --> 01:43:27,880 Speaker 2: Dak Prescott, I think that's about it. Like brock Pray 2083 01:43:27,920 --> 01:43:30,040 Speaker 2: to me, he's not a franchise quarterback yet he started 2084 01:43:30,040 --> 01:43:34,280 Speaker 2: half a season, and so to think Hayden Hooker is 2085 01:43:34,320 --> 01:43:36,479 Speaker 2: all of a sudden to be a franchise quarterback two 2086 01:43:36,600 --> 01:43:39,320 Speaker 2: or three years from now when he gets healthy is 2087 01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:43,080 Speaker 2: be extreme outwire right. Kirk Cousins wasn't drafted to be 2088 01:43:43,200 --> 01:43:45,120 Speaker 2: the franchise quarterback. That was Robert Griffin the third. He 2089 01:43:45,120 --> 01:43:46,600 Speaker 2: was drafted the same year as RG three. He was 2090 01:43:46,640 --> 01:43:48,840 Speaker 2: not to be a backup. Russell Wilson was drafted to 2091 01:43:48,880 --> 01:43:52,559 Speaker 2: be the backup. They happened to you know, Dak Prescott 2092 01:43:52,600 --> 01:43:55,439 Speaker 2: was drafted to be the backup. They just happened to 2093 01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:58,400 Speaker 2: end up being the starter and being better in a moment. 2094 01:43:59,720 --> 01:44:03,879 Speaker 2: So Haeyter Hooker being this franchise altering quarterback for the Lions, 2095 01:44:04,960 --> 01:44:07,600 Speaker 2: history would tell you probably unlikely. 2096 01:44:08,680 --> 01:44:10,280 Speaker 1: When you do have the guy at sixty eight, I 2097 01:44:10,280 --> 01:44:13,400 Speaker 1: don't think you're looking to see him being your franchise quarterback. 2098 01:44:13,520 --> 01:44:16,120 Speaker 1: I think he's insurance for Jared Goff. That's basically what 2099 01:44:16,200 --> 01:44:16,519 Speaker 1: he is. 2100 01:44:17,080 --> 01:44:19,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's too injured to be insurance. 2101 01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:23,240 Speaker 1: This year, perhaps, I mean, I don't know how healthy is. 2102 01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:26,760 Speaker 2: So the question, are the Lions still in the market 2103 01:44:27,200 --> 01:44:29,000 Speaker 2: for a franchise quarterback next season? 2104 01:44:29,040 --> 01:44:31,600 Speaker 1: In the draft next year, I would say yes, I 2105 01:44:31,640 --> 01:44:32,200 Speaker 1: would say yes. 2106 01:44:32,360 --> 01:44:33,880 Speaker 2: I would say I would say that they look at 2107 01:44:33,920 --> 01:44:36,479 Speaker 2: it as as Hooker takes care of that for that 2108 01:44:36,520 --> 01:44:37,000 Speaker 2: next year. 2109 01:44:37,520 --> 01:44:41,639 Speaker 1: You think, so, yeah, and what if the health factor 2110 01:44:41,680 --> 01:44:43,879 Speaker 1: is a problem because you said the ACA maybe. 2111 01:44:43,680 --> 01:44:45,800 Speaker 2: It is well then and then then you've was to 2112 01:44:45,840 --> 01:44:52,599 Speaker 2: waste their draft back. Yeah, I think this. They look 2113 01:44:52,640 --> 01:44:54,799 Speaker 2: at this as like, he's maybe our future quarterback. 2114 01:44:56,400 --> 01:44:58,400 Speaker 1: I would hope not if I'm a if I'm a 2115 01:44:58,439 --> 01:44:59,559 Speaker 1: Lions fan, I would hope not. 2116 01:44:59,600 --> 01:45:02,280 Speaker 2: But you know what, the White take the watch draft 2117 01:45:02,320 --> 01:45:04,200 Speaker 2: the quarterback in the fifth round or for sixth rounding. 2118 01:45:04,240 --> 01:45:07,000 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, no, you're it's kind of a strange pick. 2119 01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:09,200 Speaker 1: It really was, But we move on.

Yep. 2176 01:48:08,240 --> 01:48:10,559 Speaker 1: Just curious now I know it sounds crazy, but did 2177 01:48:10,600 --> 01:48:12,960 Speaker 1: you keep did you record that? Do you have that 2178 01:48:13,120 --> 01:48:13,600 Speaker 1: tape of that? 2179 01:48:14,760 --> 01:48:15,000 Speaker 2: No? 2180 01:48:15,760 --> 01:48:16,960 Speaker 1: That would be fun, that would be something. 2181 01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:22,960 Speaker 2: So my so, my agents were very honest with me. 2182 01:48:23,040 --> 01:48:25,839 Speaker 2: They had told me that I'd be drafted in rounds 2183 01:48:25,920 --> 01:48:28,160 Speaker 2: four through six, like they did, you know, they didn't 2184 01:48:28,200 --> 01:48:29,559 Speaker 2: kind of you know, they didn't you know. They they 2185 01:48:29,600 --> 01:48:31,760 Speaker 2: didn't sugarcoat it. They didn't tell me oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 2186 01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:34,040 Speaker 2: you know, you'll be drafted in the you know, in 2187 01:48:34,320 --> 01:48:38,120 Speaker 2: the first round. And in my year, the round was 2188 01:48:38,160 --> 01:48:40,200 Speaker 2: two days. The draft was two days. It was round 2189 01:48:40,680 --> 01:48:42,640 Speaker 2: one and two on day one on Saturday, and then 2190 01:48:42,800 --> 01:48:46,400 Speaker 2: rounds three through seven on day two. In two thousand 2191 01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:49,639 Speaker 2: and eight, in around one and two the first day, 2192 01:48:49,880 --> 01:48:51,640 Speaker 2: ten off of the tackles were drafted. I think that's 2193 01:48:51,640 --> 01:48:54,400 Speaker 2: still a record for the most office tackles drafted in 2194 01:48:54,520 --> 01:48:58,479 Speaker 2: UH in the in the first two rounds. So I thought, well, 2195 01:48:58,680 --> 01:49:02,880 Speaker 2: that must mean my time's coming. When actually, and now 2196 01:49:02,880 --> 01:49:04,200 Speaker 2: I've learned that, you know, if there's a run on 2197 01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:07,160 Speaker 2: a position right like like off at a tackle, that 2198 01:49:07,240 --> 01:49:09,160 Speaker 2: means that there's actually gonna probably be a pause on 2199 01:49:09,360 --> 01:49:11,880 Speaker 2: people drafting tackles for like two rounds. It's like the 2200 01:49:11,880 --> 01:49:15,000 Speaker 2: tip of the way it works. So I woke up 2201 01:49:15,000 --> 01:49:17,840 Speaker 2: on Sunday morning on the West Coast and I did 2202 01:49:17,840 --> 01:49:19,280 Speaker 2: not watch the first two rounds. I was at a 2203 01:49:19,280 --> 01:49:23,760 Speaker 2: friends baseball game at Junior College in South California. I 2204 01:49:23,800 --> 01:49:26,080 Speaker 2: woke up at six am and sat in front of 2205 01:49:26,120 --> 01:49:29,599 Speaker 2: the television, and it was a mistake and third round 2206 01:49:29,680 --> 01:49:33,400 Speaker 2: goes by, fourth round, fifth round, sixth round. And you know, 2207 01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:36,880 Speaker 2: at this point I had been getting calls about undrafted 2208 01:49:36,920 --> 01:49:42,320 Speaker 2: free agent opportunities. Yeah yeah, basically, And you know, I 2209 01:49:42,560 --> 01:49:44,280 Speaker 2: had teams had called me and we're like, yeah, we're 2210 01:49:44,280 --> 01:49:46,240 Speaker 2: thinking about drafting you, blah blah blah blah blah. And 2211 01:49:46,320 --> 01:49:50,200 Speaker 2: you realize that's just a sugarcoat you for undractored, fragiant opportunities. 2212 01:49:51,000 --> 01:49:53,599 Speaker 2: And the Panthers called me, and it actually was Brandon Bean, 2213 01:49:53,640 --> 01:49:55,640 Speaker 2: who's now the general manager of the Buffalo Bills. He 2214 01:49:55,680 --> 01:49:57,720 Speaker 2: called me. He was at that point kind of like 2215 01:49:57,800 --> 01:50:01,160 Speaker 2: the not the lowest on total pull of Panthers, but 2216 01:50:01,200 --> 01:50:03,040 Speaker 2: he was sort of the job was to call kind 2217 01:50:03,080 --> 01:50:07,360 Speaker 2: of the lower prospects.

The thing about it is 2252 01:51:41,320 --> 01:51:44,080 Speaker 2: like the draft is not a kid friendly thing to 2253 01:51:44,080 --> 01:51:47,040 Speaker 2: watching television. Like it's just it's just on in the background. Right. 2254 01:51:47,840 --> 01:51:49,519 Speaker 2: And then you know, my son asked me about Bryce 2255 01:51:49,560 --> 01:51:51,360 Speaker 2: Young being drafted because they talked about it. You know, 2256 01:51:51,360 --> 01:51:53,599 Speaker 2: his friends talked about it at school on Friday and whatnot. 2257 01:51:53,680 --> 01:51:57,599 Speaker 2: But it's not really like a sit down with your 2258 01:51:57,640 --> 01:51:59,840 Speaker 2: kids and watch four hours of the draft like it's 2259 01:51:59,880 --> 01:52:04,080 Speaker 2: a it's on the television at the house.

My son has asked me about it before, 2261 01:52:06,760 --> 01:52:09,479 Speaker 2: but you know, we don't sit there and just like 2262 01:52:09,920 --> 01:52:11,680 Speaker 2: obsess over the draft on television. 2263 01:52:12,479 --> 01:52:14,840 Speaker 1: Interesting, all right, Yeah, yeah, we talked about the draft. 2264 01:52:14,880 --> 01:52:18,000 Speaker 1: The New England Patriots. They selected the edge routscher out 2265 01:52:18,040 --> 01:52:21,599 Speaker 1: of Georgia Tech king On White, round two, pick number 2266 01:52:21,640 --> 01:52:25,599 Speaker 1: forty six, second player in the twenty twenty three NFL Draft, 2267 01:52:26,520 --> 01:52:29,320 Speaker 1: and that was the second ma for the Patriots. But really, 2268 01:52:29,320 --> 01:52:31,360 Speaker 1: and truly, and I saw this on TV and now 2269 01:52:31,400 --> 01:52:34,920 Speaker 1: he's getting some negative reaction from White being picked by 2270 01:52:34,960 --> 01:52:39,080 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick and the Patriots. The Patriots former offensive lineman 2271 01:52:39,080 --> 01:52:42,080 Speaker 1: Sebastially of Volmar. He read the pick, and then the 2272 01:52:42,160 --> 01:52:46,240 Speaker 1: broadcast was cut to a view of White and White's family. 2273 01:52:46,280 --> 01:52:49,599 Speaker 1: They were at home, and White's face he didn't look 2274 01:52:49,640 --> 01:52:52,200 Speaker 1: too thrilled and he didn't even smile to show a 2275 01:52:52,200 --> 01:52:56,160 Speaker 1: positive reaction. I mean, really, to me, what was he 2276 01:52:56,240 --> 01:52:59,599 Speaker 1: not happy being drafted by the Patriots? Was he not happy? 2277 01:52:59,800 --> 01:53:00,400 Speaker 6: He was? Guy? 2278 01:53:00,800 --> 01:53:03,679 Speaker 2: Ah, that's a good question. He was a guy who 2279 01:53:03,800 --> 01:53:06,600 Speaker 2: was supposed to be a first round draft. He was 2280 01:53:06,600 --> 01:53:09,160 Speaker 2: one of the guys in the green room, right, and 2281 01:53:09,880 --> 01:53:12,519 Speaker 2: I think he was, well the guys, was bummed that 2282 01:53:12,600 --> 01:53:15,120 Speaker 2: he wasn't drafted as he thought he should be. I'm 2283 01:53:15,120 --> 01:53:17,280 Speaker 2: sure he's pretty excited about being drafted, but I think 2284 01:53:17,320 --> 01:53:18,719 Speaker 2: he thought he was gonna be drafted higher. 2285 01:53:19,200 --> 01:53:20,840 Speaker 1: I guess he was. And you know what I don't 2286 01:53:20,880 --> 01:53:23,200 Speaker 1: think so much is the money situation. I think it's 2287 01:53:23,200 --> 01:53:25,360 Speaker 1: the ego, like I'm better than that. I should have done. 2288 01:53:25,680 --> 01:53:26,960 Speaker 2: Absolutely not the money. It's the ego. 2289 01:53:27,000 --> 01:53:31,240 Speaker 1: Absolutely, yes, exactly right.

About thirteen minutes before the top of the hour, 2295 01:53:48,160 --> 01:53:49,720 Speaker 1: and at the top of the hour, which would be 2296 01:53:49,760 --> 01:53:52,439 Speaker 1: nine am on the East Coast, Dan Byer and Mike 2297 01:53:52,479 --> 01:53:54,400 Speaker 1: Harmon will talk sports with you right here on Fox 2298 01:53:54,439 --> 01:53:57,200 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, and we are live from the tai iraq 2299 01:53:57,320 --> 01:54:00,639 Speaker 1: dot com studios. But right now it's time to play 2300 01:54:00,680 --> 01:54:04,479 Speaker 1: the blame game. Here is ruin me. It's all your fault. No, 2301 01:54:04,800 --> 01:54:11,240 Speaker 1: it's your fault. What is all your fault? Maybe it's 2302 01:54:11,240 --> 01:54:15,840 Speaker 1: everyone's fault. Who the liar? That's why there's the blame game, 2303 01:54:15,880 --> 01:54:19,000 Speaker 1: the blame game. Let's figure out who to blame. The 2304 01:54:19,040 --> 01:54:22,160 Speaker 1: blame game. Yeah, that's blame the big ee. He's in charge, 2305 01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:22,840 Speaker 1: Ethan Miller. 2306 01:54:22,920 --> 01:54:26,080 Speaker 5: Yes, all right, guys, here we go. First blame of 2307 01:54:26,080 --> 01:54:26,400 Speaker 5: the day. 2308 01:54:26,400 --> 01:54:29,639 Speaker 6: The number two seed Memphis Grizzlies lost to the number 2309 01:54:29,680 --> 01:54:33,200 Speaker 6: seven seed the Lakers. Obviously, Memphis was supposed to win 2310 01:54:33,240 --> 01:54:36,480 Speaker 6: this series. So who is the blame for Memphis collapsing 2311 01:54:36,520 --> 01:54:37,440 Speaker 6: and losing the series? 2312 01:54:38,720 --> 01:54:41,800 Speaker 2: Well, like you were the favorite. I believe it's just 2313 01:54:41,840 --> 01:54:46,320 Speaker 2: odd because there was two two. The person blame is 2314 01:54:46,360 --> 01:54:50,280 Speaker 2: Doyling Brooks for just running his mouth when he should have. 2315 01:54:52,720 --> 01:54:55,160 Speaker 1: You know what, I'm gonna take that difference that Dylan Brooks. 2316 01:54:55,480 --> 01:54:58,120 Speaker 1: I think that, yeah, he said some things. I'm not 2317 01:54:58,160 --> 01:54:59,840 Speaker 1: so certain that it hurt the team as much as 2318 01:55:00,320 --> 01:55:04,360 Speaker 1: John Morant was out for a while being suspended. I 2319 01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:07,680 Speaker 1: think that the whole flow of that team was lost. 2320 01:55:07,760 --> 01:55:10,040 Speaker 1: And you know, he even admitted after they got blown 2321 01:55:10,080 --> 01:55:12,280 Speaker 1: out by the Lakers the other night, like, you know, 2322 01:55:12,480 --> 01:55:14,200 Speaker 1: I got to learn to grow up. I really do 2323 01:55:14,360 --> 01:55:16,400 Speaker 1: some of the things I did off the court hurt 2324 01:55:16,400 --> 01:55:18,760 Speaker 1: this ball club. So I'm gonna blame John Morant. 2325 01:55:19,040 --> 01:55:24,120 Speaker 6: Okay, all right, next we got uh oh, this is 2326 01:55:24,160 --> 01:55:24,480 Speaker 6: a good one. 2327 01:55:24,520 --> 01:55:27,160 Speaker 5: You'll like this one, Andy. Yeah. 2328 01:55:27,280 --> 01:55:31,520 Speaker 6: Will Levis fell all the way from the all the 2329 01:55:31,520 --> 01:55:33,560 Speaker 6: way from the first round to the second round. He 2330 01:55:33,640 --> 01:55:35,920 Speaker 6: was the thirty third pick to the Titans. Who's to 2331 01:55:36,000 --> 01:55:39,200 Speaker 6: blame for Will falling all the way down to thirty three. 2332 01:55:39,760 --> 01:55:44,000 Speaker 2: I let the big man go first, his film, like 2333 01:55:44,080 --> 01:55:47,640 Speaker 2: his his player on the field. But this was not 2334 01:55:47,760 --> 01:55:49,880 Speaker 2: too difficult. I mean, you can blame the media all 2335 01:55:49,880 --> 01:55:51,960 Speaker 2: you want for hyping him up, which is certainly possible, 2336 01:55:52,000 --> 01:55:54,280 Speaker 2: and we've seen. Here's the thing, though, is we've seen 2337 01:55:54,360 --> 01:55:59,080 Speaker 2: players like him get drafted much higher than everyone expects, right, 2338 01:55:59,160 --> 01:56:03,960 Speaker 2: mister Bisky's Wilson, and so even a Daniel Jones to 2339 01:56:03,960 --> 01:56:07,800 Speaker 2: to some extent. So we've seen it happen quite often. 2340 01:56:07,800 --> 01:56:10,880 Speaker 2: So I understand the thought of like a guy with 2341 01:56:11,000 --> 01:56:14,520 Speaker 2: maybe not the best skill set on film with you know, 2342 01:56:14,560 --> 01:56:17,360 Speaker 2: with with with with with a big arm and can 2343 01:56:17,440 --> 01:56:18,960 Speaker 2: run a little bit and draft h much harder than 2344 01:56:19,000 --> 01:56:22,080 Speaker 2: he should. But the blame in the end is his 2345 01:56:22,200 --> 01:56:24,120 Speaker 2: film wasn't as good as as it should have been, 2346 01:56:24,160 --> 01:56:25,240 Speaker 2: and that that's who I blame. 2347 01:56:26,000 --> 01:56:27,720 Speaker 1: You know what, I'm gonna go one stuff further, I 2348 01:56:28,000 --> 01:56:31,000 Speaker 1: think that what he did off the playing field was 2349 01:56:31,040 --> 01:56:33,480 Speaker 1: a big factor. When I see that he goes out 2350 01:56:33,520 --> 01:56:36,400 Speaker 1: said he likes mayonnaise and coffee, people think the guy's 2351 01:56:36,400 --> 01:56:39,320 Speaker 1: a wacko. Really, I really believe that hurt him big time. 2352 01:56:39,720 --> 01:56:42,240 Speaker 1: You know, yes, yes, right? And and also you said 2353 01:56:42,240 --> 01:56:46,760 Speaker 1: that he's too muscle bound, maybe he's too to build flexibility. 2354 01:56:47,360 --> 01:56:51,160 Speaker 2: I don't think so. When there are when your film 2355 01:56:51,240 --> 01:56:55,520 Speaker 2: is not perfect, I think that everything else sort of 2356 01:56:55,560 --> 01:56:58,720 Speaker 2: has to be perfect. As a as a big quarterback, 2357 01:56:58,760 --> 01:57:02,280 Speaker 2: prospect and it wasn't with with levels. And that's in 2358 01:57:02,320 --> 01:57:05,320 Speaker 2: the end. What kind of did him in he should do? 2359 01:57:06,080 --> 01:57:07,480 Speaker 1: Well, I didn't do him in. I mean he's gonna 2360 01:57:07,480 --> 01:57:09,520 Speaker 1: he's got drafted. I mean really. 2361 01:57:10,920 --> 01:57:12,120 Speaker 2: Basically be a first round draft pick. 2362 01:57:12,320 --> 01:57:15,320 Speaker 1: How much money did he lose from. 2363 01:57:15,280 --> 01:57:17,320 Speaker 2: Being on a top four draft pick to where he's 2364 01:57:17,320 --> 01:57:17,760 Speaker 2: at now? 2365 01:57:18,120 --> 01:57:20,760 Speaker 1: Yes? Million, three million, four million? 2366 01:57:20,880 --> 01:57:23,440 Speaker 2: Oh no really? 2367 01:57:23,560 --> 01:57:25,960 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. Oh yeah, no, I'd be ticked off too. 2368 01:57:26,640 --> 01:57:29,840 Speaker 1: I would have gone home then too. Yeah. 2369 01:57:29,840 --> 01:57:33,720 Speaker 5: Wow, that's a lot of money, really, is all right? 2370 01:57:33,880 --> 01:57:34,320 Speaker 5: Next one? 2371 01:57:34,800 --> 01:57:35,120 Speaker 1: Yes? 2372 01:57:35,720 --> 01:57:40,320 Speaker 6: Throughout the years, well the most recent years, the sport 2373 01:57:40,400 --> 01:57:43,760 Speaker 6: of boxing has been declining. We don't get the real 2374 01:57:43,840 --> 01:57:46,560 Speaker 6: big heavyweight fights anymore, like every weekend. 2375 01:57:47,160 --> 01:57:50,160 Speaker 5: Well, who's the blame for this? I know it's a 2376 01:57:50,160 --> 01:57:50,680 Speaker 5: little harder. 2377 01:57:50,680 --> 01:57:53,800 Speaker 1: Sorry, Andy, you're trying to say on that more. 2378 01:57:54,520 --> 01:57:56,440 Speaker 5: No, you're a genius, you know, a genius. 2379 01:57:57,160 --> 01:57:58,840 Speaker 1: I'll take this one. I think that when they made 2380 01:57:58,840 --> 01:58:01,920 Speaker 1: the division of the the different divisions of boxing, the 2381 01:58:02,000 --> 01:58:05,080 Speaker 1: World Boxing Championships, there were too many champions. No one 2382 01:58:05,160 --> 01:58:07,880 Speaker 1: knew no one, and I think the pay per view 2383 01:58:08,360 --> 01:58:10,480 Speaker 1: hurt boxing as well. Used to have the Friday night 2384 01:58:10,520 --> 01:58:13,040 Speaker 1: fights years back when I was a kid, like the 2385 01:58:13,080 --> 01:58:15,360 Speaker 1: Friday Night you let fights. I don't know what channel 2386 01:58:15,360 --> 01:58:17,240 Speaker 1: they were, NBC, whatever it may have been. You know, 2387 01:58:17,280 --> 01:58:20,280 Speaker 1: they were more accessible. People could see it. And there's 2388 01:58:20,280 --> 01:58:23,360 Speaker 1: really no true cut champion anymore, so no one's gonna 2389 01:58:23,400 --> 01:58:25,160 Speaker 1: pay for it. And then I want to pay for 2390 01:58:25,200 --> 01:58:27,720 Speaker 1: that stuff. So that really hurt boxing. 2391 01:58:28,960 --> 01:58:33,240 Speaker 2: Very quickly. Will Levis will get about ten ten million 2392 01:58:33,280 --> 01:58:36,800 Speaker 2: dollars kind of where he slaughtered in the second round, 2393 01:58:36,800 --> 01:58:39,200 Speaker 2: he would have gotten thirty six million if he'd been 2394 01:58:39,280 --> 01:58:43,560 Speaker 2: drafted at the fourth took overall, so I'd twenty six 2395 01:58:43,560 --> 01:58:47,600 Speaker 2: million dollars. I've never been a fan of boxing, so 2396 01:58:47,680 --> 01:58:50,440 Speaker 2: I'm not the right person answer this question I have. 2397 01:58:50,960 --> 01:58:52,840 Speaker 2: I just have. It's not something we watched you. 2398 01:58:52,880 --> 01:58:54,760 Speaker 1: Are you passing? You're going to pass on this question. 2399 01:58:55,240 --> 01:58:56,920 Speaker 2: I don't have a great answer for you. I don't. 2400 01:58:57,080 --> 01:58:59,480 Speaker 2: I've never don't. I don't know what. I don't have 2401 01:58:59,520 --> 01:59:01,080 Speaker 2: a great answer. I've never been into boxing. 2402 01:59:01,520 --> 01:59:04,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's why boxing has declined. You answered your 2403 01:59:04,360 --> 01:59:06,920 Speaker 1: own question because the people like you don't follow with 2404 01:59:07,080 --> 01:59:08,360 Speaker 1: That's why I went down the crapper. 2405 01:59:09,400 --> 01:59:13,280 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess so, but like I don't, I 2406 01:59:13,720 --> 01:59:15,440 Speaker 2: but I never watched it as a child, so I 2407 01:59:15,480 --> 01:59:18,160 Speaker 2: don't know. It's like it's my my family. We didn't 2408 01:59:18,160 --> 01:59:20,160 Speaker 2: watch it as a kid very much. I mean, I know, 2409 01:59:21,040 --> 01:59:22,760 Speaker 2: I guess I watched, idn't know. Yeah, we didn't order 2410 01:59:22,760 --> 01:59:24,960 Speaker 2: pay per view fights like it's never been something. 2411 01:59:25,440 --> 01:59:27,520 Speaker 1: And I assume that you and the people you run 2412 01:59:27,600 --> 01:59:30,600 Speaker 1: with your friends, you're inner circle, they don't watch it either. 2413 01:59:30,640 --> 01:59:32,560 Speaker 1: So there's my. 2414 01:59:32,520 --> 01:59:36,520 Speaker 2: Best friend loves boxing wrestling UFC, what my radio co 2415 01:59:36,600 --> 01:59:38,840 Speaker 2: host on my Pack to Hove show.
