I think 19 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good day. I hope you're having 20 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: a great summer sad news Ozzy Osbourne dies at the 21 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: age of seventy six. When I say sad, it's anybody 22 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: who dies, it's sad. But as I think Jay stew 23 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: you said, or was it you? Sam? Like a bit 24 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: of an upset. Ozzy Osbourne made it seventy six years right? 25 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: Who was it? Which which one of you two said that? 26 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 2: No, that's definitely my humor, and it is an upset, 27 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 2: Like I remember when we were watching The Osbourne's thinking, 28 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,119 Speaker 2: this guy's only got a couple more months to whip. Yeah, 29 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 2: like twenty six years. 30 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: Yes, there was a certain there was a point there 31 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: where you felt like there was a weekend at Berney's 32 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: taking place right where you're like, gee, they just propping 33 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: him up for this show. But Ozzy Osbourne and I 34 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: thought the point, you know, without trying to make it, 35 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: because I think you left it so that I could 36 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: make it, that you make it. The Osbourne's was a 37 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: bit of a breakthrough show, right. It paved the way 38 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: for the Kardashians. I don't know if the Keeping Up 39 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: with the Kardashians happens or is as is as successful 40 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 1: without the Osborns. Maybe that's for your next pod jays 41 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: too for your next Bachelor lifestyle pod. Good idea, Yeah, 42 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 1: because without the Bachelor and without the Bachelor in Paradise, 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: Love Island has no chance of being as big as 44 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: it's been. Again, more ideas for your podcast. That's what 45 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: I do here. Don't have ideas for my show for 46 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: your podcast. I thought Colin had some some really interesting 47 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: things to say earlier today in regards to Jerry Jones 48 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: and talking about when you try and do try and 49 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: be great at a bunch of things, you end up 50 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: being average at all of them. And he was of 51 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: course specifically responding to Jerry Jones when he was asked 52 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: if he thought he'd ever bring in another guy to 53 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: be the actual gentleman manager. Here was his response yesterday. 54 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,519 Speaker 3: Just because we signed him doesn't mean we're going to 55 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: have him. He was hurt six games last year. Seriously, 56 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: we've signed. 57 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 4: A stepping away as general manager. Ever been even a 58 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 4: momentary consideration for the years? H Yes, momentary, A lot 59 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 4: of moments. 60 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 3: Now we're getting down to it, small fractions of seconds 61 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 3: as you know, you see it. I'm in the Senior bowls. 62 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 3: Combines all of that, all of that melts in two 63 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 3: a real good feeling about where we are so that 64 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 3: I'm not sitting up there throwing darts about a player. 65 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: So there's a couple different parts to it. And I'm 66 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: gonna give you a basketball analogy. You tell me if 67 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: it makes sense. Jase too, Sam, So there are coaches 68 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: in college basketball who other people substitute for. Like I 69 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: know of a really really good coach and he doesn't. 70 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: He doesn't do the subs And I just to me, 71 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: that's well, that's like in pregnance, having somebody else impregnant 72 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: your wife when you're fully capable of doing it, right. 73 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 1: That's that's my thought about it, especially when the former 74 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: the coach is a former player and a really good one, right, 75 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 1: because what you're supposed to bring to the table is 76 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 1: not the relatability, but also, hey, you've been a player, 77 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: so you use that player's intuition. He's been a coach 78 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,119 Speaker 1: for a long time. He's a really good coach. But again, 79 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: it's just interesting allowing other people to do things. Now, 80 00:04:55,480 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 1: when you hear how Jerry Jones explains it, I think 81 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: he tells you the truth without you, without most people 82 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: hearing it. The last part when he's like, you see 83 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: me the Senior Bowl. You see me here, you see 84 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: me there, So we're not just kind of going blind. 85 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: The point is in the NFL, you draft, you let 86 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: your scouts do their job. You have all kinds of layers, 87 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: and you're at the top as the general manager and 88 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: the owner of like a of the pyramid. And the 89 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: point I made about the subbing and the letting somebody 90 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 1: else impregnant your wife is you know, we can all 91 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: tell Jerry Jones what he should do from our perspective 92 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:39,239 Speaker 1: as outsiders. The reality is, if you own the most 93 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: valuable team in professional sports and you want to be 94 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: the genlem manager, you can be the genlem manager. If 95 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: you want to be the quarterback, you give me the quarterback. 96 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: If you want to be the coach, you can be 97 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 1: the coach. Like that's your money, you're allowed to do it. 98 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: That's where the expression owners own, because owners owns. At 99 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: the end of the day, they want to do something, 100 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: they just damn well do it. No problem, problem solved. 101 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: But I I I also think we have a misconception 102 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: or misperception of what actually takes place, is that he's 103 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: not making all these picks on his own. But what 104 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: he can do is they can say, Hey, I like 105 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: this guy. I saw it the Singer Bowl. I like 106 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: that guy. Let's take that guy. It's not to say 107 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: that what the Cowboys are doing is perfect or right. 108 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 1: And I do think there's a certain amount of what 109 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: Colin's saying which is dead to nuts accurate, because it's 110 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: not just the GMing and the marketing, and it's they 111 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: haven't done a good job of hiring the right coaches. 112 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: They become beholden to players who they should let go. 113 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: The drafting at times has been really good, at times 114 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 1: it hasn't. Sometimes they've signed somebody willie Nilly out a 115 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: free agency that didn't make sense. It's all those things 116 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: combined are just coming up short, and so the team 117 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: constantly just comes up short. But all of our opinions 118 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,119 Speaker 1: don't matter because we didn't pay the money. We didn't 119 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: raise the money, pay the money own the Cowboys. We 120 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: weren't owning the Cowboys when they want to call three 121 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: Super Bowls. So Jerry's allowed to do what he's allowed 122 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: to do. If he wants to let somebody else impregnant 123 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: his wife, fine, if he wants to do it, fine. 124 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: In this particular case, he's like I could hire somebody else, 125 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: but I know what I want and I let my 126 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 1: scouts do their job. And the last part is if 127 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: we're being honest, For the most part, the Cowboys has 128 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: done a really good job of their overall talent level. Granted, 129 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: the Eagles have found a way to sort of put 130 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: themselves ahead of everybody else, but up until last year, 131 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: there hasn't been anybody who's like, you know, the Cowboys 132 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: just don't have that much talent. Hasn't been the case. 133 00:07:55,760 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: That hasn't what been what has kept the Cowboys from 134 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,119 Speaker 1: performing in the playoffs. I don't think Dak's that good, 135 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: and I think they're in that little bit quarterback purgatory. 136 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: I do think there are some other decisions they have 137 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: made in terms of re signing players. Ezekiel Elliott that 138 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: wasn't a good contract and it screwed a bunch of 139 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: other things up. So I'm not saying he's perfect, But 140 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: the idea that you bring in a different GM, he 141 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: didn't have to. If you own the team, you want 142 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: to be the GM, and he'd done a good enough job, 143 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: and they've done a good enough job for the last 144 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: fifteen years. He doesn't have to now, Yes, if you 145 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: do too much, something will fall short. And I think 146 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: it's in the coaching hires they make, and in the 147 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: decision at quarterback. They got stuck there. They had Romo, 148 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: he had his flaws in the playoffs, but then he 149 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: was coming back. They stuck with Dak. Dak's been their guy, 150 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: and you do fear letting that guy walk out the 151 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 1: door because finding the next quarterback is so so difficult 152 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: if you don't have one, as opposed, it feels a 153 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: little easier when you do have one. All right, we 154 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: get back on the Cowboys in a second, but I 155 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 1: you know, I look at I look at Jerry, and 156 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: I'm not defending him, but everybody talks about him giving 157 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: up GM duties and talent on that football team has 158 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: not been the problem. Coaching quarterback play, some aging out 159 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: of some guys, and yeah, if being the GM, in 160 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: terms of how you re sign guys, how you structure 161 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: the contracts, what it all looks like. That is on Jerry. 162 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: That is his issue. But that doesn't mean you can't 163 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: hire somebody to help you with those issues while still 164 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: maintaining the kind of overarching theme of being the general manager. 165 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 5: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Doug 166 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 5: Gottlieb Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on 167 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeart Radio app. 168 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: It's Doug Gottlieb Show Fox Sports Radio. So so, reputations 169 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: are really really hard to shed, right, really hard to shed. 170 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: And the Bengals have a reputation of being cheap. Now, 171 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: the Bengals, you go back to when Carson Palmer was 172 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: their quarterback. Remember Carson before he got rolled up on 173 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: by Chemo Van Ohoffen signed the biggest contract in the 174 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: history of the sport. Now Carson retired and then came back, 175 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: not because of how much the Bengals were gonna pay him, 176 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: more so for all the other stuff they were accused 177 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: of being cheap with. You know, Guyston State, a hotel 178 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: near the stadium night before a game, old towels, no indoor, 179 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 1: just the way in which they handled it, and the 180 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: Bengals gets twenty years ago. Bengals have been digging out 181 00:10:53,800 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: from that ever since. Now, they got Burrow Chase, and 182 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: they put together a heck of an offensive lineup. But 183 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: you drafted defensive back in the first round who to 184 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: this point has not showed up in Shamar Stewart and 185 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: the guy who's led you in sacks the past two 186 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 1: years posts a video of him leaving the state of 187 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: Ohio as he's holding out for a bigger contract. Here's 188 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: Mike Brown, the owner of the Bengals, talking about Shamar 189 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 1: Stewart's hold up. 190 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 6: If we get a player who gets involved in something 191 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 6: like that or does something that is just unacceptable, guess what. 192 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 6: I don't want to pay him. I really don't. If 193 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 6: he's sitting in jail, I don't think I ought to 194 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 6: be paying him. And so we say that if he 195 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 6: got involved in conduct detrimental, we'd have the right to 196 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,199 Speaker 6: terminate the guaranteed part for the back years. As agent says, 197 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 6: oh no, you can terminate the guaranteed part only for 198 00:11:54,440 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 6: the remaining part of the year in which the event occurs. Oddly, 199 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 6: something like this has never occurred with us. I don't 200 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 6: think it's going to occur. So we're sitting here arguing 201 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 6: over something that I think is pretty remote, and I 202 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 6: ask myself sometimes why the hell we're doing it. But 203 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 6: we are, and he's doing it too, and at some 204 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 6: point we got to put this stuff behind and just 205 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 6: get him up here and get him so he can 206 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 6: be a contributor. 207 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean like, look at some point, I truly 208 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: believe this. And this relates to the Micah Parsons thing. 209 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: It relates to all this talk about fully guaranteed contracts, 210 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: like so much of this stuff is agent driven, agent driven, 211 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: and what happens is you won't have You're not gonna 212 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: have owners or gms or coaches talk negatively about agents 213 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: because they fear the repercussions of agents going like, now 214 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: you're never gonna get my guy. We have the same 215 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 1: thing in college basketball, right we're dealing with agents and 216 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: if I were, if I were to out agents and 217 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: something I disagree with what they're doing, there is a 218 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: sense of, well, man, now I'm never going to get 219 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: a guy from an agent. 220 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 7: Just not. 221 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: So he won't say it. I will. What Mike Brown's 222 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 1: talking about is this all sufs ridiculous, Like we're not 223 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 1: just going to sign a guy to a contract and 224 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,719 Speaker 1: no matter what he gets paid, nobody does it. We're 225 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: not doing it. If the guy wants to play football, 226 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: we'll see him Monday. It's no different than these The 227 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: idea of having fully guaranteed contracts and off all teams 228 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: would absolutely do fully guaranteed contracts for like two years 229 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: maybe three. They tack on the extra years a little 230 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: bit to protect themselves, but mostly for the agents. They 231 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: can go like, hey, look he signed for two hundred 232 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 1: and fifty million dollars. Like, yeah, it's like a one hundred 233 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: and for three. No, no, it's two fifty. That only 234 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: helps the agent and the agency go. The agent doesn't 235 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: get paid more on it. They only get paid their 236 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: percentage based upon what the player actually brings in, So 237 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: that ain't it. Does it help the team a little 238 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 1: bit because you can do some creative math and hide 239 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: some money from the salary cap, but eventually you're gonna 240 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: have to pay that too. But make no mistake about it. 241 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 1: Hendrickson again, I'm sure he wants too much for too long, 242 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: but he's not going anywhere because they own his rights. 243 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: Even when his contracts up, they can franchise tag him. 244 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: He's not going anywhere. And Shamar Stewart there, you know, 245 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: when you're a first round pick, you got to start 246 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: that clock in order to get to being to being 247 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: having your second contract, and he can't start that clock 248 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: if you're doing if you're working out a text A 249 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: and M and he has no leverage. You know, it's 250 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: floated out there that you go back to the draft, 251 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: and then they found out actually can't go back to 252 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: the draft. All right, stuck Gottlieb Show here on Fox 253 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: Sports Radio, Jayceu, there were rumors that you took yesterday 254 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: off because you just couldn't handle what's happening with the Dodgers. 255 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: No, that's not me. That's not me. I'm not that 256 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 2: kind of fan. I take it personally, but I don't 257 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 2: do that. I face the music, you know, I come in, 258 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 2: I take all the all the bullets. So what do 259 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 2: you got for me? What's uh? What do you hate 260 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 2: most about the Dodgers? 261 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: I don't hate about the Dodgers. I was just saying 262 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: they you know, the Brewers swept them, not once, but twice. 263 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: I just want to know if you're you're doing okay. 264 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 2: I think with Brewers are a better team at this 265 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 2: point than the Dodgers. They're the best team in baseball, 266 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 2: the best right. 267 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: They're on fire. They're they're on fire right now. I 268 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: mean they're just like this is one of those I 269 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: don't know if you say peak too soon, but they 270 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: are peaking. 271 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: Maybe uh, maybe next week wazy talk show producers and 272 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 2: hosts couldn't do the segment Are the Brewers bad for baseball? 273 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 2: Have the Brewers ruined baseball? That's John Middlecoff, Let me 274 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 2: run and get. 275 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: That, okay, Are the Brewers bad for bab Are the 276 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: Brewers bad for baseball?

I'm totally 284 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: butchering it. I met the CEO. Now if feel like 285 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: an idiot, but that's okay.

I said 289 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: this yesterday in regards to Scottie Scheffler winning the Open Championship. 290 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,639 Speaker 1: The Unsuperstar Superstar is one of those things that is relatable, 291 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 1: but it doesn't really help the sport at all, Like 292 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: it's just at all, Like aug shucks, it's just golf. 293 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: It doesn't change who I am. I'm just a guy. Again. Great, 294 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: but doesn't sell the sport the way that support needs 295 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: to be sold. 296 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, I would say it's not apples apples, But I 297 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 7: think he's kind of got like Jokic. You know, anyone 298 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 7: you know, you're a basketball guy through infer you watch, 299 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,359 Speaker 7: You're like, there's one of the greatest players I've ever seen. 300 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 7: But it's like, yeah, I don't really care to do 301 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 7: any media, any marketing. I just I'm out once the 302 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 7: season end. While I'm on the court, I'll give you 303 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,360 Speaker 7: everything I have and I'll mostly if my team's good 304 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 7: enough to dominate. Obviously Scotty controls bulk as an individual sports, 305 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 7: but everything else Nope. I mean of obviously Tiger you know, 306 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 7: I mean in your lifetime, Doug, I mean, will you 307 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 7: say an all time outlier of just anything. I mean, 308 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 7: he's one of the he's one of the most powerful 309 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 7: marketing machines. Where I would say of the last seventy 310 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 7: five years, and that sport especially there's two guys, Arnold 311 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 7: Palmer and Tiger Woods and even a little bit Greg 312 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 7: Norman the Shark that transcend the sport. I mean, that's 313 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 7: what Michael Jordan did, That's what Tom Brady and Faydon 314 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 7: Manning do. That's just not what this guy does. He's probably, 315 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 7: you know, I'm not old enough to remember, like in 316 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 7: the peak, like a Tom Watson type. But there's kind 317 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 7: of a boring aspect to him. And he tells you like, 318 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 7: don't expect anything else. I think even speak. I mean, 319 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 7: all these guys. Now, part of it is some of 320 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 7: these guys are calling off the cliff so they make 321 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 7: so much money off the course. He's like, yeah, we 322 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 7: do all this stuff on the Mondays, and anyone that 323 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 7: can go to YouTube you can watch Tiger put on 324 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 7: those clinics on Mondays because that's where he was making 325 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 7: all of this money. The reason Tiger is a billionaire 326 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 7: is not because of the hundred million dollars he won 327 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 7: on the course. It was all the stuff off the course. 328 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 7: And now you know, you could argue Scotty because the 329 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 7: money is so outrageous. I mean, I think he's made 330 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 7: one hundred million dollars, like the last eighteen months. So 331 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 7: it's like he'd argue, I don't even need to do 332 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 7: that stuff, which I don't want to do anyway. 333 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,479 Speaker 8: But I agree with you, But the sport needs him 334 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 8: to do it, yeah, or they need you know, really, Rory, 335 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 8: you know, I would say Brighton are more in that lane. 336 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 7: Scott, what's face is just he's just not really gonna 337 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 7: be if he hadn't gotten arrested. I mean, we think 338 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 7: he's boring now. I mean that I added at least 339 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 7: some you know, some name recognition to the casual fans. 340 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 1: It's funny if you hadn't gotten arrested, that's it's very funny. 341 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: And he got arrested for literally like nothing. But regardless, 342 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: it's it's just amazing jumping coofs our guest here Doug 343 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: Gottlieb show, Fox Sports Radio, what do you think happens 344 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: with the Bengals? And I bring it up. We were 345 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: talking about Shamar Stewart, like he didn't have the option 346 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: to go back to college. It's got to go there. 347 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: It very much feels agent driven, right, like you're trying 348 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: to change this language in a contract, and Mike Brown's 349 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: just like, I'm not changing the language in the contract. 350 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: How long are we going to how long we gonna 351 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: do this dance? 352 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's kind of confusing. I mean I was reading 353 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,399 Speaker 7: about it last night. It feels like other teams are 354 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 7: doing the same thing that Mike Brown wants to do 355 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 7: around that range. And he's like, I listened, we're talking 356 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 7: about it. This guy goes to prison. Well, this isn't 357 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 7: that complicated here. I think these situations, I think there 358 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 7: are some parallels. Not you know, I'm not paralleling Michaeh 359 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 7: Parsons to the guys in Cincinnati, but both owners in 360 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 7: Cincinnati and in Dallas are essentially the GMS, and you 361 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 7: know they are. You know, Mike Brown usually doesn't talk 362 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 7: as much, but he starts talking. It becomes kind of 363 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 7: a chaotic situation. All these gms now and most of 364 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 7: these owners, most owners never say a peep, never say anything, 365 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 7: and they just go, hey deal. I'll give Jimmy has 366 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 7: Them some credit. Remember when Miles Garrett went to the 367 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 7: Super Bowl and was like, I want to trade and 368 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 7: then Rich Paul was like, we want a meeting, and 369 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 7: Jimmy Hasd's like, talk to the GM, that's his job. 370 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 7: That was it, you know, and I just think that 371 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 7: sometimes these agents, know what would the agents say yesterday 372 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 7: about Dick Tobin and Stewart's situation, He's I got the 373 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 7: above his pay grade. He's not running point on this 374 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 7: like geez. Once he's become public, which doesn't happen as 375 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 7: much anymore, right, because social media becomes so magnified. You 376 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 7: just want to avoid this at all costs. Like negotiations 377 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 7: are hard as they are, but like TJ Watt, I 378 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 7: would imagine that wasn't an easy negotiation behind the scenes, 379 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,120 Speaker 7: but it was behind the scenes. And I think these 380 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 7: situations become so public and becomes so toxic that I 381 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 7: don't know, I don't know how you put the genie 382 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 7: back in the bottle once everyone's just so angry, and 383 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 7: it clearly like it's not like this is Drosenhouse for 384 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 7: Tom Condon. You know, I don't know how well this 385 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 7: guy is first in the NFL landscape as an agent. 386 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,199 Speaker 7: So it feels like it's getting worse before it's going 387 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 7: to get better. 388 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: Stut Gottlieb show here on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, you 389 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: mentioned Jerry Jones. I do think that one thing that's 390 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: interesting that we never bring up is It's like, be 391 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: critical of Jerry Jones for not, you know, signing Micah Parsons, 392 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 1: although he didn't even call him by the rate and 393 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: right name right Michael Parson, so showing his age. But 394 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 1: we don't factor in the very strong likelihood that Parsons 395 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: is asking for a ridiculous contract, and we're only critical 396 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: of Jerry for not signing him to a contract which 397 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: is very likely to be a ridiculous contract. 398 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 7: Yeah, to me, my criticism would be just based on 399 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 7: the way other successful teams do business. Obviously, Jerry is 400 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 7: an outlier given he talks i mean once the season starts, 401 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 7: multiple times a week, the radio show, and then after 402 00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 7: games win or lose. You know, he like all these 403 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 7: situations are difficult. I mean I've seen it with the 404 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 7: forty nine ers held a couple of years ago. Nick 405 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 7: Bosa came down to like the last week before the 406 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 7: season because he was asking for such a lot of 407 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 7: money and they were having tough negotiations. But it's a 408 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 7: pretty standard practice. If you hear a coach or a 409 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,879 Speaker 7: GM asked about the negotiations, they go, yeah, we're just 410 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 7: gonna keep that between the agents and the player. And 411 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 7: I think when Jerry who just does what Jerry does 412 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 7: just creates like what he said. You know, I'm a 413 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 7: newly married guy, and you learn pretty fast, like everything 414 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 7: you think you don't need to say, right, something like 415 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 7: what Jerry said wasn't wrong. Mike Parson's miss games. That's 416 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 7: miss games. We all know that, right, but he just 417 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 7: it kind of strokes the fire. Here's the go thing. 418 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 7: And you know this in recruiting, like most guys, I 419 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 7: think the average age for a guy getting their first 420 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 7: contract right past you know, they've passed the rookie deal, 421 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 7: so of getting an extension, I would say is like 422 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 7: average is twenty four or twenty five years old. So 423 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 7: you are dealing with young men that are highly emotional, 424 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 7: and the agent obviously has his tentacles in him. So 425 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 7: these situations Jerry's just make him worse, and he obviously 426 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 7: makes them really public. It becomes like a you know, 427 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 7: like an NBA headline. But it wouldn't exist if Jerry 428 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 7: didn't talk, which obviously is not going to happen because 429 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 7: it feels like his favorite thing to do is tell 430 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 7: you about everything that's going on. Now. Granted says prerogative 431 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 7: is his team, but I would imagine whenever, and I'm 432 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 7: not rooting for Gerry to go anywhere, but whenever Steven's 433 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 7: in control and the point guy, the Cowboys probably quiet 434 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 7: down a little bit. 435 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 1: Stut Gottlieb show here on Fox Sports Radio. Hey, did 436 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: you know Philip Rivers wasn't retired? 437 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 7: I said that yesterday when I saw the headline, I 438 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,479 Speaker 7: assumed he retired, like back when, like Peyton Manning. Did 439 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 7: I know that he's been gone forever? 440 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 1: We were talking about this before the show. I mean, 441 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: I think he's all a famer, but more than anything, like, 442 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: I just I don't feel cheated by the Philip rivers 443 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: eg experience as a Charger fan, right like, never got 444 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,399 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl. Heck, I don't think they got 445 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 1: to the AFC Championship game. 446 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 7: But I never felt toward against the Patriots. 447 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: Oh that's right. And he played with the torn ACL 448 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: and n LT didn't play and he had a minor neathing. 449 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I mean that's like the ultimate stuff, right Like, 450 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: played in an AFC champions who game with the torn ACL? 451 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: Now he was he was never a good athlete, so 452 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,199 Speaker 1: I'm not sure it really hurt him, but it did 453 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: could not have felt felt good having had a torn 454 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: a cl and then tried to go for a walk 455 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: with my dogs and stepped in a hole. It was 456 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: the greatest pain I ever felt in my life. So yeah, 457 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 1: I do, I actually do feel that. But I never felt, 458 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 1: never felt cheated by the by the by the by 459 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: the Philip Rivers experience well part of it. 460 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 5: You know. 461 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,360 Speaker 7: It was like a golfer. At any moment, he could 462 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 7: hit it out of bounds. I mean he threw some picks, 463 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 7: but he could also have games that would just like 464 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 7: this guy is such a badass. You know. He didn't 465 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,400 Speaker 7: have a great arm, which I think led to some picks, 466 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 7: especially the little Layton games when he was pressing. Uh, 467 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 7: he's kind of like the poor man's Peyton Manning. But 468 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 7: in terms of respect and like hall of fame, to me, 469 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 7: my standards are a little higher I think than most. 470 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 7: You tell me he gets in one day, wouldn't be 471 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,160 Speaker 7: surprised to me. Probably in the hall of really good. 472 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 7: I've always thought, though, Doug, that you know, seeing some 473 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 7: of these guys like Drew Bury is a good example, 474 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 7: awesome guy. If he was your quarterback and you're stoked, right, 475 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 7: he'd probably be an awesome GM or an offensive coordinator. 476 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 7: I just don't think he's great on TV. I think 477 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 7: Philip Rivers, if you put him in like the CBS, 478 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,480 Speaker 7: like just a crew, he would be a star. You know, 479 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 7: his passion, his energy. 480 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I. 481 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 7: Think he would be so good and he would kind 482 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 7: of like what Romo did for his career, but it 483 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 7: even be different. I just think he's a little more likable. 484 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 7: I don't know. I think he'd be awesome. 485 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: You and I, you and I both. I mean, he 486 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,479 Speaker 1: used to we go down there for Chargers camp every year, 487 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 1: and you get done talk with me like, I think 488 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: you might invite me for dinner tonight. You know, he 489 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: just has that warmth and that ability to make it. 490 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: I feel like you're best. 491 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 7: I think he could be John Madden as a player, 492 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 7: you know, kind of that kind of personality. Just I 493 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 7: think he would have been a superstar on TV, which 494 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 7: he made so much money. He's got fifty kids. 495 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if ever well, I think he said 496 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: he wants he loves ball, like his dad was a coach, 497 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: and he wants to coach, so he's like coaching high 498 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: school ball. 499 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 7: And I think it's kid good, right, I mean, I 500 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 7: think it's like fifteen year old or sixteen year. 501 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: Old, one of them has one of them has to 502 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: be good. Just the numbers tell you that one of 503 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: them has to be good, right exactly. I mean they're 504 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: probably not all good. There's got to be one that's 505 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: like now, now he's shaving his tongue with a razor, 506 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: right like multiplicity. Uh, but I don't. 507 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 7: We're gonna we're gonna feel really old.

But like, yeah, 511 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 7: when Philip Rivers or Matt Stafford has a kid that's 512 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 7: like draft eligible, you're gonna be like, oh my god. 513 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well Philip Rivers could have like an entire offense 514 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: be all his kids.

But 523 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: once you get to August, you're starting to get excited 524 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 1: about college football. 525 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 2: Definitely. 526 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 9: And we have ACC media days, big ten media days 527 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 9: coverage on right now, so we're ramping up.

Here, the month is gonna be 530 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 9: over before we know it. And just seeing these coaches 531 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 9: and players representing their teams at these media days, you're like, yep, 532 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 9: college football rider on the. 533 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: It's so weird though, right, Like, okay, so now we 534 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: have a playoff, but the leagues are very different. Some 535 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: you don't play teams you used to playing. You do 536 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: play teams you're not used to playing all the most 537 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: of the teams are brand new. You know, you get 538 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 1: like fifteen padded practices. Then you're playing a game. Now 539 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: you can survive an early season loss, whereas previously you 540 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: couldn't remember they have week zero in week one and 541 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: all that other stuff, like I don't even know which 542 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: week is week zero.

As you and I was, Sam, 573 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 10: we're getting so excited and geeking out about the upcoming 574 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 10: football season.

Yeah it's awesome, yes, yes, but 577 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 10: now now I know when it starts and all that, 578 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 10: so thank you. Now we got the dates. 579 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, top three most relevant. Yes, I'm gonna go. 580 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 10: Ohio State three, Ohio State three, Okay, Yeah. 581 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Bama two and Georgia one. And I'll 582 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,479 Speaker 1: tell you my logic behind Yeah, please do. Georgia went 583 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: back to back national titles. We're a little bit like 584 00:31:58,080 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: we're always kind of late to catch up a little bit. 585 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: And I think that although they were just okay last year, 586 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 1: I mean they're good last year, still made the College 587 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: Fall Playoff. You know they're still okay. I you know 588 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: you went back to back. Tellson Alabama has been the 589 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: most dominant in the last twenty years to fall. Yeah, 590 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: and then Ohio State is right there like one B 591 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 1: with Alabama and they're coming off a national title win. 592 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 9: So those are my three, Doug, I think Steve Sarkisian 593 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 9: and Texas would like a word with you. They have 594 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 9: been quite hot on the recruiting trail. Texas Longhorns honorable mention. 595 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Texas has really been the Dallas Cowboys 596 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: of college football since they were in the National Championship 597 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: game way back when. Obviously, this past year reinvigorated them. 598 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: And because they have what's his name manning a quarterback, 599 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: I think they'll be super relevant this year. But I'm 600 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 1: talking about overall relevance. I'll still go with the other schools. 601 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 10: Interesting. I'm surprised Oregon wasn't mentioned also, even as an 602 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 10: honorable mention for relevancy. 603 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: Or it could be honorable mention if you want honorable mentions. 604 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 10: There's lots of hooray, you're right, we're doing. 605 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: We need a Notre Dame is an honorable mention? 606 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,959 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, yes for the tops, yes, yes, yes, all right, 607 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 10: let's move on here.

Yeah, there's been parody in that 619 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 10: division for like twenty one years. There's been no repeat 620 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 10: division winner, and you got them winning. Okay. 621 00:33:56,640 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: I I could see Washington, but I fear of sophomore 622 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: slump there, so I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go Eagles, 623 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:04,239 Speaker 1: all right, all right? 624 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 10: The division I find very interesting.

Packers won. Wow, Well, 630 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: the Lions lost their coordinators players, Like sure, I think 631 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a refresh year. Bears look 632 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:41,839 Speaker 1: better and looked better at the end of last year. 633 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,320 Speaker 1: But a lot of new pieces, a lot of new stuff. 634 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 1: And you know, I don't know about Vikings at quarterback, 635 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: but other quarterbacks that perform really well. JJ McCarthy is 636 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 1: a rookie. I mean, you got a guy who's quarterback 637 00:34:55,760 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: whispers a head coaching kind of skill. And I know 638 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 1: that the Packers only won one game in division last year. 639 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, uh, but better at wide receiver, better across 640 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 1: the board. And you know, if Jordan loves turn the 641 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 1: ball over less, I think they win more games. 642 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 10: Yeah, all right, all right, I like it. 643 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 7: I like it. 644 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 10: Okay, moving on here, Jimmy Graham announced that he is retiring, 645 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 10: so ranked the top three most well known Saints players. 646 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 10: Saints had a lot of retirees this offseason. 647 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: The top three most well known Saints players.
