If the 76 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: owner doesn't know, and he's frustrated enough to put that 77 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 1: tweet out there, because you don't put a tweet out 78 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: there to maybe frustrate or upset the representation or the 79 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: player you're trying to get. Right, he's not putting that 80 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: out there for Kyle Tucker if if he wants him 81 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: to sign, or thinks he's going to sign, he's put 82 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: that out there because maybe Kyle Tucker's people blew him 83 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: off radio silence. We know he's going to another team, 84 00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: and he's using the Mets' his leverage and the Blue Jays' 85 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: is left as well.

I mean, like I said, Kyle Tucker 102 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: is a good player. I'm okay not paying sixty million 103 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: dollars a year for him. He's now a thumper bat 104 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: in the middle of the Dodger lineup, and the Dodgers 105 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: are gonna roll towards the NLCS again in the World Series. 106 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: That's just how it goes every year.

It's here at the Seahawks, who have 160 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: home field advantage all the red. He's stunk for three 161 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: other teams. He's been good with two teams, I'm okay. 162 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 1: If he's stunk with the Jets and when someplace else 163 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: became a star, I'd be really pissed. But other teams 164 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: showed you that, Hey, it's all about the right system, 165 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: and he was unfortunate to not be in the right 166 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,679 Speaker 1: system for three teams, fortunate for two teams, including the Viking. 167 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: So I am okay with Sam Darnald being this guy 168 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: being good.

Yeah, and they didn't 181 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 4: utilize either of them. How you doing Matt reels. 182 00:07:58,400 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 5: That's more of a worse. 183 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: Fail than they The Jets just failed with one of 184 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:02,239 Speaker 1: those guys. 185 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 5: Well, but but you do them in sequence. 186 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 4: They did it once and failed spectacularly with two guys 187 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 4: in the room. 188 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 3: You were just like, all right, we'll get that next guy. 189 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 4: Sure, yeah, wait, we changed out the GM and the 190 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 4: coach and everything else, and that guy failed and get. 191 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 3: Loan and get line and oh yeah, all those solid. 192 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 4: But with this it's interesting because I was fully expecting 193 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 4: it to start going the other way. Of all the 194 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 4: excuses are built in if he doesn't perform well, that 195 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 4: it was going to become that narrative of oh look 196 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 4: at this, And the fact that there are well wishers 197 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 4: for Sam Darnold means we've really turned the corner and 198 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 4: we're trying to find some positivity in this world. This 199 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 4: is good. Go back to that Jacksonville reporter that everybody hated. 200 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 4: It was like, it's good to have a little feel 201 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 4: good every now and again, isn't it Once in a while. 202 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 4: Where you could just say, damn, I want to see 203 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 4: what this looks like. By the way, he has a 204 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 4: defense that swarms like things I watch on the Nature Channel. Yeah, 205 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 4: I mean, but where the hell that other jackals combined from? 206 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 4: That's that's the way the Seahawk defense rallies to the ball. 207 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 4: But for Sam Donald, I like that there's a little 208 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 4: bit of positivity, And for you it took six degrees 209 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 4: of separation and a lot of miles in between. Maybe 210 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 4: some therapy, maybe an extra sandwich. I don't know, Sam, 211 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 4: You're better. 212 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: He is on the list of he is like so 213 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: low on the list of things I'm upset about as 214 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: a jet fan, Like, I'm not even He's like, does 215 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: he make the top fifty? How don't you think, well, 216 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: maybe the top fifty. Maybe he makes the top fifty. 217 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 5: There's so many. 218 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 4: When I say the term running Man, do you think 219 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 4: of the movie with Glenn Powell or Arnold Schwarzenegger. 220 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 5: I don't even think of Aaron Glenn. 221 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 6: No. 222 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,439 Speaker 5: I think more of the mc hammer dance and doing 223 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 5: the Running Man. You go back to that. 224 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 4: By the way, you mentioned a couple of grease lines 225 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 4: tonight first ever drive in movie at the Santa Monica 226 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 4: Peer grease. 227 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: So now because we did have positivity there, we have 228 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: to we have to bout that was really good because 229 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: the Sam Darnald story, and I just love bringing this 230 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 1: up because it's just it just gets worse and worse. 231 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: Is that I really don't know at this point seeing this, 232 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: I don't know how Kevin O'Connell and Adel Famnsa still 233 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: have jobs in Minnesota. It is fireable to miss on 234 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: a quarterback this badly, Okay, because think about where Sam 235 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: Donald is right now. 236 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 5: Again, we know this, he was in the building. 237 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 1: He had a Pro Bowl year, four thousand yards, thirty 238 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: five touchdowns. He had two downish games at the end 239 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 1: of the year. That used that to say, Nope, can't 240 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: have you. We're stuck with We're gonna go with JJ McCarthy, 241 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: even though we've never seen him play and he's been 242 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: injured all year. We found we figured out the most 243 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: important position and know we're gonna be stubborn as hell 244 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: and kick the other guy out. When we could have 245 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 1: kept Donald for one more year easily and gone to 246 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: Jay and figured out if JJ McCarthy was really any 247 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 1: good or he could have kept Sam Darnald and traded 248 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy and recouped a first round pick. Right, No 249 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: one cares if you're trading away a first round quarterback. 250 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: If you have the quarterback position solved, it doesn't matter. 251 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: But this now has become firable for the Vikings because 252 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: for you GM and your head coach, because this is 253 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: how bad you have biffed it. Now, the team that 254 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: he went to is the number one seed in the 255 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: NFC playoffs and is the favor to get to the 256 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and you blew it because you decided to 257 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: be so stupidly stubborn on a guy that Now at 258 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: the end of the season, the Viking said, we're bringing 259 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: in competition for JJ McCarthy next year. 260 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 5: This is an. 261 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: Epic fail storyline that just gets worse and worse as 262 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: it goes on. All right, and think about it like this, right, 263 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: think about it like this.

Okay, meanwhile, JJ, well, 291 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: JJ was sick, he was hurt. Little carpal tunnel didn't 292 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: sell a house.

We're going 298 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: with JJ because you know, he looks like I can't 299 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: miss guy, and we really like this guy. So you 300 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,559 Speaker 1: want the guy that's never sold a house before. When 301 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: you have a guy right here that boys sold tons 302 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 1: of houses. 303 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 5: You watched him do it. 304 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: You watched him do it in your town for the 305 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: entire year, you would no, no, no, still going with 306 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: that guy who has realtor JJ make that sale. 307 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 5: Nobody does? Nobody? 308 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,719 Speaker 4: Well, I think you do if you start looking at 309 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 4: the dollars spent on Sam Donald relative to other pieces 310 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 4: of the roster puzzle. 311 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 5: And this is. 312 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 4: Where you get to Kevin O'Connell and quarterback whisper talk, 313 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 4: et cetera. Right, and option number three was Daniel Jones, 314 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 4: but it was clear he wanted to start somewhere and 315 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 4: had the opportunity to go to Indianapolis, So that was 316 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 4: really a non starter. 317 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 3: But for the Sam Donald, yeah, we always talked about it. 318 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 4: Right, do the dollar cost averaging first round quarterback, first 319 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 4: year of his d against a guy that has just 320 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 4: shown so well, you franchise him and then see what 321 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 4: you got, or make the trade of McCarthy. It makes sense, certainly, 322 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 4: But they were invested in McCarthy and decided that was 323 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 4: the way they were gonna go and be true to him, 324 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 4: that he wasn't gonna lose the job based on the injury. 325 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 4: It also pushed Sam Darnold out the door. Whether you 326 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 4: identified something in those final couple of games that you 327 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 4: didn't think was solvable, only they know in their clandestine 328 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 4: meetings with ownership and everything else.

Oh, 788 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 1: it's great this story for the most part for us, 789 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: for sports fans, Eh, you expect it to be at. 790 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:14,800 Speaker 5: The lower levels. 791 00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 1: It's easier to approach players at this point, it's easier 792 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 1: to affect games that aren't on the radar screen. And 793 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: what's going on is what is happening, is what should 794 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 1: be going on. Hey, investigation, it's found out and we 795 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:28,959 Speaker 1: bust the ring wide open. 796 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 5: Right. 797 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: So it's good that we still see stories like this 798 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:33,919 Speaker 1: because you want you know, Yes, is it a bad 799 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 1: headline that you see them, Yes, But it's also good 800 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 1: knowing that what they're doing is working and you are 801 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 1: busting whether it's prop bets or anything else. You're seeing this, right, 802 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 1: But is this really affecting college basketball? 803 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 5: No? Not really. 804 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 1: You need the bigger schools. You need the bigger schools 805 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: that we watch that are that would be a big thing. 806 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: Tournament games potentially were were fixed, you know, big conference 807 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: games that potentially. 808 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 5: On the level. 809 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: But we don't have any of that, right because again 810 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,399 Speaker 1: that's police at a really really high level. And now 811 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 1: that all that being said, like I could see where 812 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 1: news are, Oh it's big as big, No, it's really 813 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 1: not that big a deal. But if you want to 814 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: deal with it, and really it's it's quite simple. And 815 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: I don't know why the sides aren't working together, the 816 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,399 Speaker 1: gamblers and the schools and everything else. Is that if 817 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: you eliminated prop betting, you would eliminate eighty to eighty 818 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: five percent of all the problems going on with fixing games. 819 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,400 Speaker 1: Because this is what's the easiest thing to do, not 820 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: the most complicate. The most complicated thing is to have 821 00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:35,360 Speaker 1: a guy go six or twenty four from the field 822 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: and be terrible and throw a game where you were 823 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 1: favored by twelve and you lost by three. That's a 824 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 1: really hard thing to do.
