Maybe because it's lightning McClain day. And watching 52 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: McClain throw is so much fun because nobody in Major 53 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: League Baseball has his stuff. He throws a frisbee for 54 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: a cutter that is just out of this world. He 55 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: is so much fun to watch pitch, like in an 56 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: era when you like to see guys that throw big 57 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: heat and throw certain pitches and the ghost fork has 58 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: become a big thing and draw. But he throws some 59 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: cutter that just floats. And even the Tigers guys were 60 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: amazed today, going they're going, I don't know what that was, 61 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: but it was glowing when it crossed the like, that's 62 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: how wowed they were by Nolan McLain. 63 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 3: No, that's just it. Four straight wins. He's been fantastic. 64 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 3: You know, it's funny if you look to an AI 65 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 3: overview of this game, he's the first Mets pitcher to 66 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 3: win his first four MLB starts since twenty fourteen, when 67 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 3: another pitcher parenthetical who has not yet been named named 68 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 3: from twenty fourteen. Hey, we don't know who he is. 69 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: Yet, I don't know, don't know wich we'd have done. 70 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 3: I love that. Yeah, but but it's exciting, right. You 71 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 3: got two young pictures that that have electrified the world. 72 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 3: You got Juan Soto who after a rough start and 73 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: a lot of bad press, horrible ink, and all the 74 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 3: talkers they're in New York trying to pile up as 75 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 3: fast as they can, all of a sudden they look 76 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 3: up and they look at those numbers, are like, he's 77 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 3: doing things no one he's ever done before. Yeah, yeah, 78 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 3: I just hasn't done it quite quite a long time. 79 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 3: But because of Schwarber, but because of Otani, it gets 80 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 3: pushed to the way. So uh and it's gonna be 81 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 3: overshadowed by these young guys, particularly when they get nineteen 82 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 3: runs of support and all that kind of nonsense. But uh, 83 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 3: Wan Soto having himself the year that you paid all 84 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 3: that money for. 85 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: And listen, if you listen to the odd couple a 86 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: few minutes ago with Rob Parker and Kelvin Washington talked 87 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: about how you know Wan Soto hasn't lived up to expectations. 88 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,840 Speaker 1: There's a reason why I ked Rob Parker's car on 89 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: the way in for the show today. Said, okay, you're 90 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 1: gonna say that, I'm gonna key your car. So his 91 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: car's got a nice little jagged s O t O 92 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: on it, So he's got like that's gonna be awesome. 93 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 3: He said, Yeah, I would have just put a giant 94 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 3: question mark like the Riddler. It's like, I don't understand 95 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: what's he supposed to do. 96 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: I mean, he's like he's gonna in the end, Wan 97 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: Soto's gonna finish in the top five and MVP voting 98 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: in the National League. I'll finish there right, Like he's 99 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 1: gonna fin Yeah, it could be his highest depending on 100 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: how the rest of it he He and Alonso are 101 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: dragging the Mets, the players, whether they want to go 102 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: or not. They're just dragging you and new rookie the 103 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: babes will lead them. Yeah, and McLean has showed up 104 00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: and he's he's at four starts. He's our best pitch. 105 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: He's had forced major league starts. He's our best picture. 106 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 3: Everybody else the day without having a picture of Bruce 107 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 3: Willis in my head though. 108 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: Oh see, I just keep thinking of Lightning McLain, like 109 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 1: lightning mcqueenchow, good chow, good chow. 110 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 3: Either that or Denny McClain.

The latest AP poll came out this week 172 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: and to no surprise, Ohio State number one team in 173 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: the country after beating Texas fourteen to seven last week. 174 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: They ascended number one. Other teams four top ten teams lost. 175 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: They didn't drop all that far, which is good. When 176 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: wasn't a knee jerk reaction to what we saw first 177 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: week of the season. Look, we saw some big games 178 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: and clearly none was bigger on the field we talk 179 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: about in the standings and the rankings than Ohio State 180 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: in Texas. And the funny thing is this is that 181 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: all the attention the last couple of days has been 182 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: on arch Manning, and rightfully so. Right arch Manning and 183 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick are the two stories of college football, and 184 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: arch Manning and his debut and how poorly he played 185 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: and what he has to do and that what he 186 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: has to work on and his arm angles and all 187 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: of that. I get that that was the complete total story. 188 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: Ohio State did not play well. Okay, Ohio State didn't 189 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: play well. Are we sure that Ohio State is good? 190 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: Just saying are we sure? Because we don't know if 191 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: Texas is good? And Ohio State they were just sort 192 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: of hanging around like they didn't do a lot offensively. Yes, 193 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 1: defensively they played, but arch Manning missed a lot of throws. 194 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: It was not a well played game. And I get Look, 195 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: obviously arch Manning is a story, he's the rockstar college football. 196 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: But man Ohio State coming off the championship, I get it. 197 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,559 Speaker 1: But are we sure that they're good? Because they didn't 198 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 1: look that great on Saturday. There's a couple other teams 199 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 1: that look better. And yes it's one week one of 200 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: the season, but all of a sudden, hey here's Ohio 201 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: State number one. You expected a little bit more. If 202 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: they were that good, that'd be more sloppiness in the game, 203 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: be more offense in the game, and there wasn't. And 204 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: Julian saying didn't put up a lot offensively, and it 205 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 1: was just it wasn't a great game to watch when 206 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: we think these are two great teams. So I mean, 207 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: are we sure Ohio State is good? Because I don't 208 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: know that Ohio State is a great team. 209 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 3: I'm gonna put it this way. I'll put it in 210 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 3: terms because we try to grab the sporting world in 211 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 3: a giant hug. I felt like I was watching a 212 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 3: Floyd may Weather fight. 213 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: That he was gonna win. He was holding up the 214 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: other person for a few rounds, and I was gonna win. 215 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 3: But like we're just kind of dancing and watching the 216 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 3: clock tick away, not taking a lot of shots downfield, 217 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 3: not getting really creative and going for the jugular on 218 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 3: either side. Right, Because for Julian saying right, he was 219 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 3: the number one quarterback the year after Arch or two 220 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,079 Speaker 3: years after Arch. Right, So, young guy with a lot 221 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 3: of expectations on I know you had a lot of 222 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 3: attrition both sides. You're losing players to the draft, to 223 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 3: the portal and all that stuff, new bodies whatever, some 224 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 3: of it owing to the you know, play it close, 225 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 3: so don't take a lot of chances to where you 226 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 3: end up getting run out the gym. Now, the fact 227 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 3: that the lack of creativity or taking the points whichever 228 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 3: side you want to go on. In that third quarter 229 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 3: possession where they run the ball four straight times inside 230 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 3: the Ohio State ten and get stuffed, that was one 231 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 3: where I'm just standing there with my you know, shrugging, 232 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 3: going what are we doing? What I mean, absolutely nothing, 233 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 3: no juice and the play calling and certainly the excellence 234 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 3: of execution on the Ohio State side, but all of 235 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 3: that to say we danced and look at what it 236 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 3: costs Texas their number seven. Yeah, I mean, but the 237 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 3: thing is is that, and this is what gets me 238 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 3: about this is that this is Ohio State Texas. This 239 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 3: is a game that hey, both teams need to win 240 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 3: this because this is a if we lose this game, 241 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 3: you only have so many losses till we can't put 242 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: you in the College Football Playoff anymore. This is a game, right, 243 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 3: but this is But you know, Ohio State's got some 244 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 3: tough games this season, So I get that when you're 245 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 3: playing a Tate Michigan for example, right when they go 246 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 3: out and they play New Mexico, I get how vanilla 247 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 3: their offense was. They don't want to put anything on 248 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 3: tape for Oklahoma. Look, and no one's seen outside of coaches, 249 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 3: no one sees more mission games last thirty years, and 250 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 3: I have this. 251 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: Is what they do. They never put anything out there 252 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: until they absolutely have to. It's why when they play 253 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: early in the season they don't blow teams out by 254 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: as much as you think, because they don't put stuff 255 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: out there until they get to their first test. So, yeah, 256 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 1: the offense was a little vanilla, and Bryce Hunter was 257 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: really good, but the offense was vanilla. They didn't really 258 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: do a ton And I get that because, well, we're 259 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 1: gonna win this game, and if we get to a 260 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: point where things are a little loose, we can make 261 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 1: an adjustment. But ohiose Texas, Hey, you got to throw 262 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: it all out there. Because you lose this game, all 263 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 1: of a sudden, well, you only have one more loss, 264 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 1: maybe to the way to get into the playoffs. Two 265 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: more losses, maybe forget it. You're out at three. Three 266 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: is like that line of demarcation where hey, two, you 267 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: should be able to stay in in a Power five conference. 268 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: Three I don't know. So all of a sudden, you're 269 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: one more away and you have a tough schedule. So 270 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: I expected to see more creativity, more stuff, a little 271 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: more of a normal, outside the box, tight game plan. 272 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: And you had Sarkisian at halftime telling arch Manning, hey 273 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: take what the defense gives you, don't you? And and 274 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 1: Ohio State being incredibly conservative unless they don't just don't 275 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 1: trust Julian saying which if they don't trust him, goes 276 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: back to my first point. Are we sure Ohio State 277 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: is a great team? Because man, I don't know about that. 278 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 3: So pay you to say that? 279 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 2: No? 280 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: No, no, I said to Pants. Did Pans pay you? 281 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: They had an extra portion of. 282 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 3: The no no, I need her putting. 283 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: And Ohio State loves me because I said on Friday night, 284 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: what if arch Manning sucks, what does that mean for 285 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: college football? He sucked on Saturday. So you're welcome Ohio States, 286 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: and we give it. We get uh so, yeah, so 287 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 1: they're okay, they want they want. 288 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,439 Speaker 3: House State have like two order thirteen yard they weren't 289 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 3: great like they did or something. You see these other 290 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 3: ones we needed to tate. Yeah, forty yard touchdown mass 291 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 3: that's it. There's your explosiveness. 292 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: But you saw these other teams that were all playing 293 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: top five, you know, two other top ten games, right, 294 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 1: and no, tre Dame still moved the football and looked 295 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 1: okay offensively against a really good Miami team. And Miami 296 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: did the same thing against nore Dame. When we watched 297 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,840 Speaker 1: LSU and Clemson, even though it was seventeen ten, Clemson 298 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: still moved the football. LSU still moved the football. They 299 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: were able to do that. You can't sit here and 300 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: tell me the Texans Ohio States defenses are so good. 301 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: They're replacing so many players. You can't say, well, there 302 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: are two best defense in the country. Of course, I 303 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: got it no Week one. If you have any kind 304 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: of talent offensively, you should be able to exploit the 305 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: defense a little bit. I'm not saying it should have 306 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: been forty one forty, but it should have been a 307 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: little bit. But fourteen to seven, man, it's like, whoa, 308 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: I get that. The next couple of days belonged to 309 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 1: arch Manning. But man, ohast I get they're the champs 310 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: and I get, but are they are? 311 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 3: They really? 312 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,079 Speaker 1: Are they that great? I don't know, man, I mean really, Like, 313 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: that's a tough thing to suddenly say, hey, they're great 314 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 1: because they did not look good. 315 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, but that was ignoring that. But that's the beauty 316 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 3: of the early part of the season, right, because now 317 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 3: if you want to get in on the arch Manning 318 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 3: by low situation right post post draft hype and all 319 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 3: that kind of stuff like we would do for trading 320 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 3: cards of like, hey, he was the prospect everybody wanted, 321 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 3: and then he didn't. He comes up as a bad call, 322 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 3: call up in September, so everybody jumps off his cards 323 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 3: and it's like, all right, he comes back, he adjusts, 324 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 3: he'll be better.

They did everything they could. He also 483 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: talked about, hey, what about this contract agreement between Micah 484 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: Parsons and Jerry Jones, and Mulaghetta said, well, when you're 485 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: a twenty five year old football player and your boss 486 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: was the most powerful person in the NFL calls you in, 487 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? And so all of this 488 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 1: is the power dynamic as well that he got into. 489 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: So seeing this from Michah Parson's side, Okay, you understand, 490 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: this is Michah Parson's side, and we've heard both Jerry 491 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 1: Jones and his version of events. We had a deal 492 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 1: which technically was not illegal for him to do, but 493 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: it's really frowned upon by the NFL. Beyed to go 494 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,360 Speaker 1: shape directly with a player, and you don't know did 495 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: he cross the line. Who knows what happened in that conversation. 496 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: But with this war of what's going on the last 497 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: few days. Clearly the public sentiment is we're anti Jerry Jones. 498 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones screwed this up, and he did because he 499 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: had the best defensive player in the NFL and he 500 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: couldn't sign him to a contract. Well, the interesting part though, 501 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,400 Speaker 1: in the mulaghetti stuff as he enumerated, and a lot 502 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: of it really tracked with things we're theorizing the entire process, 503 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 1: and I believe I used the term the devil's in 504 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: the details right of what the handshake agreement that Jerry 505 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: thought he had with. 506 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 3: Mike or whatever. But it all comes back to a 507 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 3: fifth year is the thing that really ends up blowing 508 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 3: it up right. One more year that would get him 509 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,440 Speaker 3: to free agency and whatever sixty million dollars or whatever 510 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 3: the marketplace would be at that point. But it's just 511 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 3: kind of an interesting all right. Now we're getting the 512 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 3: enumeration in all of this in the PostScript, and it 513 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 3: goes back to what I said with Michael all the 514 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 3: time when he was looking all sad on the sideline, 515 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 3: he wanted to be on it with his guys. 516 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, whether he was laying on a table or eating 517 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: an orange or whatever, he was doing I doesn't want 518 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 1: to do that. 519 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 3: I want to go back to work. 520 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 1: But if you're looking to if I'm saying, who I 521 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 1: believe with everything that went on between Micah parsons side 522 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: and Jerry Jones's side after hearing the stuff today, I'm 523 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 1: gonna believe Michaeh Parsons and his side, because number one, 524 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 1: when Jerry Jones said, hey, we offered Micah Moore guaranteed 525 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: money in this deal. Okay, but how many years did 526 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: you offer? Like it's yeah, that's great, did you have 527 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 1: and and we Lagetta said, hey, yeah, they offered, but 528 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: it was for it was for more years, right, that's 529 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,959 Speaker 1: none of it. This is he's losing forty five million 530 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: dollars in this negotiation. So the fact that that was 531 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones's big trump card and that's all he said, 532 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: that was his big trump card, was we offered more 533 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: guaranteed money. Yeah, but if he did it over less years, 534 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: that's really way less money from Michaeh Parsons. And the 535 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: fact that that's all we heard from Jerry Jones and 536 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: we hear this from Micah Parsons, I'm gonna believe everything 537 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: that went on from Parsons perspective, because if the cowp 538 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: if it really was bad and it was parsons fault, 539 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: Jerry Jones would be singing that from the mountaintops because 540 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,239 Speaker 1: he's not taken blame for anything with this. Remember right 541 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: after the press conference he had it was that we 542 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: had to get better against the run. Oh right, Jerry, Yes, 543 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: you had to get better again, the right, right. He's 544 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: not taking any blame for this negotiation. This is we 545 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: had the player wanted to pay, he didn't want to 546 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 1: be here, made a decision, X, Y and Z, we 547 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: moved on. He would be singing details from the mountaintops 548 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: when all we're getting out of Dallas. Now, what's the 549 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: biggest thing they can say with Parsons being gone? 550 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 3: Eh? Maybe in the locker. 551 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 1: Room he wasn't as well beloved as you thought he was. Right, 552 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: You heard stories that Dak Prescott wasn't a big fan 553 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,719 Speaker 1: of his podcast. Maybe he was a little bit too 554 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: much by himself. You know, they said, sometimes well he 555 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: came in, he didn't come in on time for treatment. 556 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 1: But then you heard other stories that no, he always 557 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,959 Speaker 1: came in early. So all you're hearing out of the 558 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: Cowboys end of this now is nothing business wise, nothing 559 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: from negotiation wise. Was Jerry Jones would again would run 560 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: it up the flag pole and say, look, I'm telling 561 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: you everything went wrong, and all you getting from the 562 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: Cowboys is that, Yeah, yeah, Michael Parsons is a dude. Yeah, 563 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:53,879 Speaker 1: I don't know how much we'll miss him. There was this, 564 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: There was that Okay, yeah, call me this weekend and 565 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: tell me how much you miss him Opening night, Tell 566 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: you gonna miss him terrorizing the quarterback and the Eagles 567 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: looking to him on the line of scrimmage, pointing him 568 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: out before every play. Where is he what is he doing? 569 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: Tell me what you miss him? Meant so the fact 570 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,719 Speaker 1: that what we're getting from the Cowboys, Okay, what's your 571 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 1: perspective from Michael Parsons? Nothing business wise? And the Cowboys 572 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: just insinuating that maybe some people he wasn't their cup 573 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,199 Speaker 1: of tea, not they didn't like the guy, not that 574 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: he was awful, just that, hey, maybe we didn't like 575 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,479 Speaker 1: his podcast, Maybe we didn't like that he was you know, 576 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: he's a little too much of a superstar. Maybe we 577 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 1: didn't like the fact that he went through some antics 578 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: on the sideline, because what but this is part of 579 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: the negotiation. Ezekiel Elliott left camp right this part of 580 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 1: the negotiation. They didn't like that, and I understand that 581 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: because that that wasn't a big thing because it looked 582 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: like Parsons had to have a bit of a hissy 583 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: fit to get what he wanted. But again, this is 584 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: how we wanted to get paid and he did. 585 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 3: So. 586 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: The fact that these are the sides, here's mullagetto with 587 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,959 Speaker 1: all these details about what went on, and there's no 588 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: blowback from the Cowboys, no response that hey, they got 589 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: it wrong. We wanted to give him this this, this 590 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: is what happened. The fact that we're not getting anything 591 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: and we're just getting a this is kind of like 592 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: in the locker room, tells me, Yeah, I'm believing Michah 593 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: Parson's side of it, and it's even more Jerry Jones's 594 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: fault than it was before today. 595 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think it's to relitigate it at 596 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 3: this point, when you'd gone to the wall saying we 597 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 3: thought we had this agreement, right, whatever that conversation was, 598 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 3: Micah with Michael was and Mouligeda even kind of said it, 599 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 3: you know, as you laid out the what's he gonna do, 600 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 3: he's going to nod, he's gonna, you know, listen and whatever. 601 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 3: But he didn't think he had an agreement. But if 602 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 3: you talked in general terms, this is again where you 603 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,719 Speaker 3: can understand. I think from Jerry's point of view that 604 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 3: he thought he had something at least shell of a 605 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 3: deal done and then it was, as Wolagetta said it, 606 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 3: the devil was in the details. All right, let's parse 607 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 3: out these years and guarantees or whatever. But then it 608 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 3: became a sticking point. So to not keep fighting over that, 609 00:27:55,119 --> 00:28:00,120 Speaker 3: I think they've just I'll give Jerry and Steven and 610 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 3: the brain trust in Dallas credit. You're not winning this. 611 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 3: It's like Nico Harrison going, well we got Cooper flag. 612 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: Yeah it's great. That's great. 613 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like you're not winning it, right, and no matter what, 614 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 3: like even if you tried to do the thirty thousand 615 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 3: foot view like we did as the trade went down, 616 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 3: of all right, does this push them in a direction 617 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 3: that's better? If they hadn't picked up the twenty million 618 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 3: dollars a year on Kenny Clark, then that I feel better. 619 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 3: Right If it was however, many trade you know, draft 620 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 3: picks or if you really open this to the market, 621 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 3: because this is where it does look like the other 622 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 3: part of the Mavericks trade of all right, you just 623 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 3: went straight to these guys like that's it, because Mike 624 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 3: could have had other teams he was looking to. I mean, 625 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 3: I'm sure if you really opened it up, would Buffalo 626 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 3: not have come to the table or one of these 627 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 3: other squads with some kind of offer that might have 628 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 3: pushed to a better. 629 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: Prece traded to the AFC getting out of it. So 630 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: you want to play week five when you're gonna be 631 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: zero and four, he's gonna just put the dagger in 632 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: your side. 633 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 3: He comes in and he's terrorizing, like like I never 634 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 3: liked your podcast as he's running out of bounds. 635 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: Like when Grudon traded Khalil mack in every week was 636 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: I can't believe another scoop and score a fumble, a 637 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 1: sack in a return for a touchdown from this guy, 638 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: Like that's what it's gonna be everywhere. I can't believed 639 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:22,959 Speaker 1: another one, and I traded him. Now. 640 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 3: What is curious though, is legitimately that there is concern 641 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 3: about his back, right. That's the part of all of 642 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 3: this that is curious. The second opinion and what's really 643 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 3: going on with him?
