00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 2: Oh they're not in yet. No?

26
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 3: Well yeah, hey, wonder what sounded like? I have zero education,

27
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:38,880

00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:39,840

30
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 3: I think my intro sound is stupid, but whatever, they

31
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 3: sound like a.

32
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 2: Freaking meat head, not a meat heead?

33
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 4: Why do I feel like Joras didn't get his song?

34
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: And again no, I did send it over and uh

35
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: and recent Ricky was not in, so yeah, I'll make

36
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: sure to have it him by Friday.

37
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 3: You want to know the problem, you should hit Veto

38
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 3: like I don't know the other fella in no disrespect.

39
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 5: But.

40
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 4: Every time Ricky gets it done every time.

41
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why I take every long. That's why I

42
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 2: take long.

43
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 4: I switched mine up more than anyone, and Ricky's always

44
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 4: who I gets.

45
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, yours is always the worst. You're going to

46
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 3: switch yours up? I'd be you know, Let's take a poll.

47
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 3: Let's take a poll on Twitter. Who has the worst song?

48
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 3: Traditionally on the show, I don't.

49
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: Think it would you.

50
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even bother putting my name on the pole.

51
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: Nobody's going to vote for that.

52
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, one of you guys put something else on the poles.

53
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,600

Speaker 1: I'm hearing reports that Brady Quinn might have gone a

67
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: real deep, real deep to research and come up with

68
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:29,960

00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 6: I mean, I'll tell you guys right off the top,

71
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 6: there's only one way I know how to do it. Okay,

72
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 6: I do it hard, I do it fast, I get

73
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 6: it one shot, one shot, Wow, and I can't and

74
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 6: whatever the results are, I have to live with them. Wow,

75
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 6: Because like I kind of came back after this one,

76
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 6: I was like, oh man, is that really how I

77
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 6: feel like it's going to play out? But it does

78
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 6: provide you some instant insight into these schedules and what's

79
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 6: going to happen for some of these teams, Like you

80
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 6: kind of come away going all right, that team's got

81
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 6: a lot harder schedule than I thought they were going

82
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 6: to have, Like I kind of I know, the roster

83
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 6: is good, and then you start kind of going through

84
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 6: You're like.

85
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 4: All right, man, they don't really have a buy till then,

86
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 4: and you know they got like a string of road

87
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 4: games or whatever. It is.

88
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 6: Like it's it's a good activity, man. I would tell

89
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 6: anyone to do it. I tell people all the time.

90
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 6: It's called playoff Predictors dot com. You can go do it.

91
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 6: It's fun to do. But yeah, I did it for

92
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 6: every single game, not like LeVar, who couldn't even name

93
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 6: you last year who won the FC South in or

94
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 6: second for that matter.

95
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 3: Apparently, any sight on our our intro sound because that

96
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 3: sounds like I don't know anything and I'm saying I

97
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 3: don't know anything, and I'm looking at what you did

98
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 3: last year. Honestly, black care less. I pick them right,

99
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 3: I pick them straight. You know, that's hard to pick

100
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 3: the FC South at them, but I guess I a

101
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: FC South didn't even count whatever.

102
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: Whatever.

103
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, if it's up to you, you just dissolved the

104
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,279
Speaker 1: entire division. Like nobody comes.

105
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 2: I mean, it wouldn't be a horrible idea.

106
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,719
Speaker 3: Or the NFC South, I mean, either one, it wouldn't

107
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: be a horrible idea. There's one team that that represents

108
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 3: it at one point time, you know, could be Houston

109
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 3: at one at a point in time, could be Tampa

110
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 3: at a point time in the n FC like, but

111
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 3: the rest of them, it's like, all.

112
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 2: Right, you know, it's been a while, it's been a while.

113
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 3: The Saints come on, So we're gonna hammer out the Titans.

114
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: Uh throughout the course of.

115
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 3: Are they even in that they don't even though the

116
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 3: Titans Jacksonville?

117
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, there you go.

118
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: So we are out. We're going to hammer out those

119
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: picks throughout the course of the show. We're gonna on

120
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: some of the first hour, the second hour, the third hour.

121
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 1: Can we just discuss for a short time what the

122
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: f is going on with Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers.

123
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: Because this is another quote unquote bombshell that was dropped

124
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 1: by Pablo Torre, who has got a knack for this thing.

125
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 1: He was the one who came up with the collusion evidence.

126
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: He's the one who scouted out where Bill Belichick was

127
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 1: doing the Walk of Shame in Nantucket. Like he does

128
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,919
Speaker 1: this investigative stuff and breaks down, you know, stories that

129
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,919
Speaker 1: pop up in the world of sports. And apparently Kawhi

130
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: Leonard took a twenty eight million dollar payment for a

131
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: no show job to circumvent the NBA salary cap from

132
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: the Clippers.

133
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 2: There was a.

134
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: Company was that went bankrupt afterwards, and so the thought is, well,

135
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: to try and get him a little bit more cash.

136
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: We'll just you know, this is the way we'll do it.

137
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: This is the way we'll come up with the monies

138
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 1: to get that done. And so Pablo Torre, after the

139
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: report dropped yesterday morning, was on the Dan Patrick Show,

140
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: which you can hear on many of these Fox Sports

141
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 1: radio affiliates, and he broke it down.

142
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 7: You may recall how in twenty nineteen, the NBA investigated

143
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 7: the signing of Kawhi Leonard by the Clippers. This was

144
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 7: the Uncle Dennis story, him asking for all the sweeteners,

145
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 7: the side deals. This was the Lakers, the Raptors, very mad,

146
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 7: lots of teams, very mad. NBA investigates says this is

147
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 7: a cardinal sin. Salary caps are convention, but they find nothing.

148
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 7: This is a story that started because of a company

149
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 7: called Aspiration, which no one really remembers in fairness, but

150
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 7: they had signed some of the most famous people in

151
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 7: the world to be endorsers. All people who endorsed this

152
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 7: climate change company that planted trees to zero out your

153
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 7: carbon footprint, like good guys, only for those same good

154
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 7: guys to have since been embroiled in what has been

155
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 7: a concurrent Department of Justice and SEC investigations that have

156
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 7: resulted in guilty please by one of the co founders

157
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 7: of the company, and Steve Baumber in this story put

158
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 7: in fifty million dollars of his own money into Aspiration.

159
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 7: Here's the punchline. The endorser deal that was the biggest

160
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 7: the Aspiration signed given all those A List avengers, happened

161
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 7: to be Kawhi Leonard twenty eight million dollars, more than

162
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 7: four times the rest of the celebrity roster combined. And

163
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 7: the kicker, you might argue, is that he didn't do anything.

164
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 7: It was a no show job, did nothing, was an

165
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,239
Speaker 7: obligated to do anything, which you can explain if you want,

166
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 7: but the point being it was a secret deal that

167
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 7: no one knew about until now.

168
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 1: So there you go, and there's the uh.

169
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 4: Well, I think you have to in order to make

170
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 4: this fair. And this is part of the.

171
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 6: Tough, tough thing I have with like Paula tole Toy

172
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 6: has done a great job with a lot of his investigations,

173
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 6: but he's only providing you, like one side of the story,

174
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 6: and in particular in this one where he does find

175
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,199
Speaker 6: some things and he's able to provide this very tantalizing

176
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 6: story that you know, I kind of look at it

177
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 6: and sit there and see David Sampson, by the way,

178
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 6: who ran the Marlins, really smart, you know, business mind

179
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 6: who's kind of sitting there looking at as a part

180
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 6: of it, and I think you can draw a conclusion like, yeah,

181
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 6: could this have been fraudulent? Could this have been a

182
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 6: way to circumvent the salary cap?

183
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 4: Sure?

184
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 6: Well, let me read you Mark Cuban's response. I'm on

185
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 6: team Balmer, Well, you might think he's going to be right.

186
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 6: He had owned the Dallas Mavericks and majority share and

187
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 6: until he sold it.

188
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 4: As much as I wish, they circumvented the salary cap, Steve,

189
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 4: isn't that dumb? All right?

190
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 6: If he did try to feed Kale money knowing what

191
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 6: was at stake for him personally and his team, do

192
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 6: you think he would let that company go bankrupt knowing

193
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 6: all creditors would be visible to the world. So let's

194
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 6: just stop there for a second. He put fifty million

195
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 6: into this, right, it's a lot of money. I don't

196
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 6: care how much money you have, fifty million into it's

197
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 6: a lot of money. Kawhi was only getting paid seventy

198
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 6: year from that, so twenty eight million, So the other

199
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 6: twenty two million, he's just throw it, just throwing away apparently.

200
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 4: Now this was all in an effort.

201
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 6: If you go back and look at what aspiration was

202
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 6: to be able to, you know, set their carbon footprint,

203
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 6: and it would kind of make you feel better about,

204
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 6: you know, some of your business operations, et cetera. But

205
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 6: the point is is that it kind of starts to

206
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 6: look a little bit fishy then of like, all right, yeah,

207
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 6: maybe he wanted to pay him seven million additionally a

208
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 6: year and get him that extra twenty eight million, but

209
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 6: then he just blowed the other twenty two purely just

210
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 6: to be able to get Kawhi Leonard.

211
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 4: Maybe, I don't know, maybe not.

212
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 6: It feels like you'd want to pay him the entire

213
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 6: fifty million or find some way of structuring that way.

214
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 6: Cuba goes on to say they got scammed by Aspiration,

215
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 6: along with many others crimes from which they pleaded guilty

216
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 6: last week, which is true, like a lot of these

217
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 6: people pleaded guilty to and if that's the case, like

218
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 6: they're all taking the fall, then just so Steve Baumer

219
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 6: and the Clippers could be able to sign Kawhi Leonard,

220
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 6: like everyone's set up to take the fall for him.

221
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,319
Speaker 6: I mean, they did a three hundred million dollar sponship

222
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 6: deal with the Clippers in twenty twenty one. That's a

223
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 6: huge deal. The better the team does, the more value

224
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 6: sponsorship has. Actually makes perfect sense. Cuban says that if

225
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 6: they stole money from investors and want the Clippers to succeed,

226
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 6: why not give the stolen money to help keep their

227
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 6: best player. Also makes a lot of sense, so That's

228
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 6: the hard part about this is Pabloatore does this report,

229
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,560
Speaker 6: it's tantalizing, everyone runs with it, and yet the populatory

230
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 6: ever reached out to Steve Balmer get his side of it.

231
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 6: Isn't that part of what journalism is. You hear both

232
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 6: sides of the story. You present the facts, and let

233
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 6: people who read it then determine what's true and what's not.

234
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: I mean, at least they got the NBA.

235
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 2: In the news mean brutal for me.

236
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 3: God, I'm glad y'all love this topic. I mean, god, dang,

237
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 3: I mean, it's interesting listening to you talk about it.

238
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 2: But well, the reason.

239
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 4: There you go.

240
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 6: But the reason is there's there's so many ramifications for

241
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 6: this because like in the NBA, for example, the president

242
00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 6: was set back when the Minnesota Timberwolves this in two

243
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 6: thousand and with Joe Schmidt Joe Smith, and they took

244
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 6: away five first round picks, which, by the way, the

245
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 6: Clippers won't even have how many first round picks? Not

246
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 6: sure what they do. They find the team three point

247
00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 6: five million dollars and they avoided the contract, So that

248
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 6: is tampering.

249
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 3: It's like tampering or fraud. What would what would we

250
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 3: call it, well fraud, you.

251
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 4: Call it fraudule have you won. It's just it goes

252
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 4: against the CBA.

253
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 6: Right because you've got a union, you've got a collective

254
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,319
Speaker 6: bargain agreement that's been agreed upon, and really for more

255
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 6: the ownership side, you know, they want things to be

256
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 6: fair and on the up up and have a level

257
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 6: playing field. And they have a soft cap for a

258
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 6: reason because if you go over it, right, you end

259
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 6: up paying a luxury tax. So there's all sorts of

260
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 6: you know, reasons why this matters. But what makes it

261
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 6: really interesting is then you apply it to like college football.

262
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 6: Right now, college football is slowly moving towards a world

263
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 6: where you have a salary cap in essence, right, we

264
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 6: have the house NCAA settlement that allows now every school

265
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 6: to pay out their student athletes, in particular football x

266
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 6: amount of dollars of the twenty two million or twenty

267
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 6: million roughly somewhere in that ballpark.

268
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 4: Right.

269
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 6: So the interesting thing about it is that the NCAA

270
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 6: and really all parties involved that that have created the

271
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 6: College Sports Commission, the CSC, they are supposed to because

272
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 6: now collectives are still able to exist, players are still

273
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 6: able to go and get their anile deals. They were

274
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 6: able to actually go and look at all those deals

275
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 6: to try to provide some sort of transparency and make

276
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 6: sure everything's on the up and up, and they can

277
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 6: determine whether or not those deals are deemed worthy, like

278
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 6: if the athletes are being paid market value, if they

279
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 6: fall up in the guidelines of what's been put forth

280
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 6: in the House NCAA settlement, what becomes really interesting is

281
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 6: who's to say the CSC knows like.

282
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 4: What's market value or even argue that.

283
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 6: And typically when you have a union with one side,

284
00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 6: you know you could take those things up or their

285
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 6: negotiated within a collective bargain agreement.

286
00:13:58,280 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 4: The problem is that we don't have any of that

287
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 4: college football.

288
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 6: So if you were to apply this situation, should someone

289
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 6: ever say, hey, Penn Station have got that recruit, they

290
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 6: probably gave.

291
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 4: Him, you know, a two million dollar, you know nil deal.

292
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 6: Like if they end up saying that the player can't

293
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 6: do the deal, the College Sports Commission, he's just gonna

294
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 6: come right back out and sue and say, yeah, you guys,

295
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 6: let's go to court.

296
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 4: Let's figure this out, and he's probably gonna win.

297
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 6: So that's that's what makes this really interesting, is you're

298
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 6: saying something right now that it's not just interesting from

299
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 6: the NBA and the fact that they're even in the

300
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 6: news and how this's all worked out, it's also interesting

301
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 6: and how it impacts other sports and where other sports

302
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 6: are at and their evolution of becoming a professional sport

303
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 6: like college football that's inching their way there.

304
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 3: So it's about figuring out managing engaging loopholes loopholers.

305
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 2: Is that what I take from it.

306
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 4: Which is kind of what always the business has been.

307
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 3: There's always been, right, But that's what this is, is somebody

308
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 3: finding a loophole to you pay more to be more

309
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 3: enticing to the player.

310
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 4: Is sure?

311
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 6: I mean the problem in this case, well, the Clippers

312
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 6: did this in order to be able to pay Kawi

313
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 6: more than what some of the other suitors would be

314
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 6: able to pay him. What's interesting about it, like I said, though,

315
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 6: is like I don't know how you stop or how

316
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 6: you look at this if you're Steve Bomber and.

317
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 4: Say, yeah, like he became a part of the Clippers,

318
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 4: Bomber owns the Clippers.

319
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 6: But at the same time Bomber just essentially wasted twenty

320
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,400
Speaker 6: two million dollars even if that was what he was

321
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 6: trying to do in helping out Kawhi Leonard. And also

322
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 6: to Mark Cuban's first point, like, no one, no one's

323
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 6: dumb enough who's in that world at that level to

324
00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 6: do something that becomes public And he had to have

325
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 6: known that if he was going to invest his money

326
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 6: with an organization and company who'd be basically were a

327
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,479
Speaker 6: bunch of scammers who pled guilty.

328
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 4: To all this.

329
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 6: That you know it was going to be eventually become

330
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 6: public and all that. Like, I'm sure that wasn't the intent.

331
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 6: Maybe Pablo Toya would say in response to this, maybe

332
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 6: he'd say, well, yeah, that wasn't Bomber's intent. He didn't

333
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 6: think they'd go bankrupt, so he thought no one would

334
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 6: ever know. But it looks a little fishy right on

335
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 6: both sides of it. And that's why you wish Pablo

336
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 6: toy would have had more from bombers side of things.

337
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: And also, you know he's gonna spend twenty two million

338
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: dollars for this, and on top of that, if he

339
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: gets popped, it's seven and a half million dollars in fines.

340
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: It's a loss of draft picks. I think they void

341
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: Kauwhai's contract, like it's going to cripple the organization for

342
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 1: all this to do business with somebody on a shady level.

343
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: It just so, Yeah, I think Mark Cuban makes a

344
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: lot of sense. They're supposed to have some sort of

345
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: you know, an interview or something. I think they agreed

346
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: to to go over a pablotory and Mark Cuban. But yeah, nonetheless,

347
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: and also how many how many other owners around sports

348
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: you know, are looking at this going, well, hopefully they're

349
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: want to start taking let's.

350
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 4: All peel back the curtain if you guys really want

351
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 4: to go there. I mean, we can talk about Tom Brady.

352
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 4: We could talk about all the.

353
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 6: Accusations that people used to make during the years where

354
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 6: he would take quote unquote team friendly deals. And there

355
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 6: was always a thought that Robert Craft and Tom Brady

356
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,640
Speaker 6: had gotten in more real estate.

357
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 4: Deals, more involved that were under the table, deals.

358
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 6: That had gone on for you know, two decades, where

359
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,479
Speaker 6: there was a common thought that that's how they were

360
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 6: getting it done. Deals that weren't just in this country deals,

361
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 6: international deals. There are deals in Brazil, like there's all

362
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 6: sorts of different things that you know, I mean, Let's

363
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 6: just put it this way. Because let's say you have

364
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 6: equity in a company and maybe they maybe just to

365
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 6: be Tom Brady, right, someone's going to give you equity

366
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 6: to use your name like this. Maybe it's it's a

367
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:49,479
Speaker 6: company that does real estate in Brazil, hypothetically speaking, And

368
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 6: if you've got a partial portion of this company, you

369
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 6: haven't put any money in, right, So you're kind of

370
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 6: playing with house money, right, because you haven't done anything

371
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 6: so far. And let's just say that you in order

372
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 6: to you know, sign a contract that's not the market rate,

373
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 6: or or you're allowing the team to sign you at

374
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 6: a discount. Let's say you're like, yeah, okay, that's fine,

375
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 6: but in exchange, I want you to invest into this

376
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 6: real estate deal. And so if you're getting a percentage

377
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 6: of the equity from that deal, maybe you're even getting

378
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 6: a networking fee and they're getting some you know, a

379
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 6: one percent of whatever you're able to raise as the sponsor,

380
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 6: you know you're getting something back in return that's real

381
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 6: money in a deal like that. So it granted all

382
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 6: hypotheticals that I'm presenting you, but ways you could go

383
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 6: about doing it where there's not as much of a

384
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 6: money trail directly to the athlete, but through another company

385
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 6: where he would be getting paid out. Does that make sense?

386
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes a ton of sense. It's just a lot,

387
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 2: just a lot.

388
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 6: But yeah, it's the lengths that teams go to in

389
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 6: order to find ways of operating in the gray.

390
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 5: Yeah.

391
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: How bad do you want it? All right?

392
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:54,239
Speaker 2: Got?

393
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 3: I mean everybody wants it pretty badly. I'm assuming some

394
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 3: people want it more more than others.

395
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 4: Maybe not Alabama, you know later a lot more back

396
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 4: in the day.

397
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:09,760

00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000

Speaker 1: Listen? So sometimes I make a bad pick, but at

465
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: least I own it and if the go sideways, that's

466
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: not on me, that's on the people that didn't perform.

Speaker 4: Johnah SAIDAM winning last year?

471
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: All right?

472
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 2: So I got him this year?

473
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 8: Lee?

474
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 2: Lee?

475
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,199
Speaker 1: How do we want to do this? You are the

476
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:22,199
Speaker 1: quarterback of our picks? So how how should we?

477
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 10: Uh?

478
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: I think spend that?

479
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 11: I think we got to just let uh let the

480
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,880
Speaker 11: dog off the leash and let Brady give his game

481
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 11: by game of the AFC.

482
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 4: Let's go. We're going yea NFC division by division.

483
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 6: I could do this quick, all right? Do we have

484
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 6: any intro music? We just you know braw Dog in

485
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 6: this jumping right?

486
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, raw talking?

487
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:46,159
Speaker 3: All right.

488
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 6: Let me start off at the AFC West with my

489
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,400
Speaker 6: number one over old seed.

490
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 4: It's the whole to thee.

491
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 6: At fourteen and three out of the Kansasity Chiefs, not

492
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 6: only winning the AFC West, but the number one over,

493
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 6: I'll see going five and one in the division, and

494
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 6: I've got the Chargers going ten and seven. They do

495
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 6: make it in as the sixth seed, though a wildcard

496
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 6: seed nonetheless five hundred division, but the Chargers of the

497
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 6: other team that makes in that division at ten and seven,

498
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 6: Broncos at seven and ten, Raiders at six at eleven.

499
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 6: Both Broncos and Raiders had tougher schedules than I could recall,

500
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,400
Speaker 6: because I do think the Broncos could be a little

501
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 6: bit better.

502
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 4: Than that this year.

503
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 6: However, That's what I've got for the AFC West, for

504
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,280
Speaker 6: the AFC North, a team that really pushed Kansas City

505
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 6: for the number one overall spot. Or the Cincinnati Bengals

506
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,719
Speaker 6: thirteen and four. Yes, for all the d bags out

507
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 6: there that think I don't like the Bengals or I

508
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 6: don't think this, or that, you know, they're a really

509
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 6: good football team. I think they could win a Super Bowl.

510
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 6: So hang on to the rest of the predictions. I've

511
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 6: got them winning the AFC North at thirteen and four,

512
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 6: beating out Baltimore at twelve and five. Mind you, Pittsburgh Steelers,

513
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 6: they go nine and seven. They do not make the playoffs,

514
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 6: which I don't feel good about that prediction.

515
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 4: However, that's how it worked out. We do it once.

516
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 4: You don't get to go back and make changes.

517
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 6: Brown's at five and twelve, which I think hits. They're

518
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 6: over in some books, but still not quite good enough.

519
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 6: Moving on to the AFC East, Bills leading the way

520
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 6: at twelve and five. They have a much more difficult

521
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 6: schedule than I'd realize. This number doesn't look good to me.

522
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,400
Speaker 6: I think they should be closer to fourteen and three,

523
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 6: but I got I'm at twelve and five. They still

524
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 6: win the AFC East, and the Patriots at ten and

525
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 6: seven they get the final wild card spots. Meanwhile, Dolphins

526
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 6: at seven and ten, Jets at six and eleven, and

527
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 6: finally the AFC South. Only one team makes it from

528
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 6: the playoffs from the AFC South, and it's the Jaguars

529
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 6: via a tiebreaker Liam Cohnan his first year, they win.

530
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 4: A tiebreaker over the Texans.

531
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 6: The Texans go ten and seven, the Jaguars go ten

532
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 6: and seven. However, it's the Jaguars that move on the

533
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 6: Titans of five and twelve and the Colts at four

534
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 6: and thirteen.

535
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 4: That is my AFC picture.

536
00:24:57,600 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 2: How about that?

537
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 1: Who's next?

538
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 11: All right, Jonas, give us your AFC picks.

539
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 1: All right, let's fire it off, all right. In the

540
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 1: AFC East, I've got the Buffalo Bills winning the division.

541
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: Stick around if you think they're gonna make a run

542
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl like Pete Prisco things, because listen,

543
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 1: Matt hard knock curse is a real thing. They were featured.

544
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 1: It might be a problem. I've got the Patriots finishing

545
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 1: second in that division, followed by the Dolphins and the

546
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 1: Jets bringing up the rear. That is your AFC East.

547
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,359
Speaker 1: Over in the North, this one I struggled with. I

548
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: struggled with both Norths. In the AFC North, I've got

549
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 1: the Bengals winning the division. I've got the Baltimore Ravens

550
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: finishing second, and then I've got Pittsburgh finishing third, followed

551
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: by the Cleveland Browns, who I think is not a

552
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,359
Speaker 1: stunner based on how that whole offseason has gone for them.

553
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,239
Speaker 1: Over in the AFC South, Lebar's favorite division, I've got

554
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: the Houston Texans finishing one, follow by the Jaguars, the Colts,

555
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: and the Titans. In the AFC West, the Bolts back

556
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 1: the Chargers will be winning that division yet again. I'll

557
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: spin the chamber one more time see if I can

558
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 1: get it right this year. But I've got the Chargers

559
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,360
Speaker 1: winning the AFC West, followed by the Kansas City Chiefs,

560
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: the Broncos, and the Raiders. That'll be your AFC picks

561
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 1: over there. What's wrong with my.

562
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,679
Speaker 3: Picksmar Well, because a lot of them match mine and

563
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 3: I don't like agreeing with you.

564
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 2: You guys must hit in bed together, I mean on

565
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 2: these picks. Damn you know dogs here too.

566
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 11: Yeah, bring it home.

567
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 6: By the way, I don't know how the hell I

568
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 6: said Pittsburgh. What I say nine ten and seven, I

569
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 6: don't know. I was reading a different teams schedule, So

570
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 6: I'm sorry about that Textedly, I'm not sure he's gonna

571
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 6: get it.

572
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 3: But that's why I'm not even going to get into

573
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 3: doing what you did. I'm gonna go with what Jonas did.

574
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,679
Speaker 3: I'm not giving any any records or anything like that.

575
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 3: I'm just going to give who I felt is going

576
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 3: to do it finish where they're going to finish.

577
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 2: I'll start with the North.

578
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 3: I do have Cincinnati a top of the AFC North.

579
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,479
Speaker 3: I do believe they will start quicker this year. And

580
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 3: they'll be a much better team for longer. This year

581
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 3: just depends on the health of Joe Burrow. In my estimation,

582
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 3: I got them one, Baltimore two, Pittsburgh rounding it out

583
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 3: at three. And yes, the Cleveland Brown's kicking the can

584
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 3: at four down the street. I wonder what that means

585
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 3: for Stefanski and company. In the East of the AFC. Yes,

586
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 3: New England. I have New England at the bottom, all

587
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 3: the way at the bottom, even though I love the

588
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 3: Mad Mike Rabela, think they're going to be way down there.

589
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,760
Speaker 3: And well, I think that the New York Jets won't

590
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 3: be far off from them, but they will be able

591
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 3: to see the New England Patriots easier than the well

592
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 3: the number one team, which I'll get to in one second,

593
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 3: but I guess you'll know because the runner up are

594
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 3: the Fins. Yeah, the Miami Dolphins. I got the mat

595
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 3: number two, and that means that Buffalo is going to

596
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 3: win the AFC East, and I think it will be

597
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 3: by a long shot. So moving to the South, Yes,

598
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,880
Speaker 3: I feel like this is the DQ not the BQ prediction,

599
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 3: But this is the disqualified predictions part of the conference

600
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 3: or part of the Division. I got the Texans winning it.

601
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 3: I think they'll have It's interesting. They had a good

602
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 3: year last year, just didn't feel like they had a

603
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 3: good year. I don't know why, but they did, finishing

604
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,199
Speaker 3: double digits of wins and they did make it to

605
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:36,919
Speaker 3: the playoffs.

606
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 2: I think they'll be better this year. So I got

607
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 2: the Texans winning it.

608
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 3: I don't know why I put the Jags at too,

609
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 3: because I feel like Tennessee or Indiana could possibly knock

610
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 3: them off. I guess we could say they have more

611
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 3: of what you would call stability at the quarterbacks position,

612
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 3: so I'll put the Mats second.

613
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 2: I got Tennessee. Like I said, they could go either way.

614
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 3: Between Tennessee and Indiana or the j if I'm being

615
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 3: honest in my estimation. But I got Tennessee at three

616
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 3: and I got Indy at four. I think the indecision

617
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 3: at quarterback, well maybe not in decision, but I don't

618
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 3: know the quarterback situation, and Indy I just I don't

619
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 3: trust it, so I feel like that might be a

620
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,479
Speaker 3: reason why they struggle. So I got them coming in

621
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 3: at fourth. The West. I think KSE is due for

622
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:28,479
Speaker 3: a down moment, not a down year, So for a

623
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 3: down moment, I'll have them finishing behind the Chargers, which

624
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 3: I think they're going to be on the rise. I

625
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 3: just think hardball led teams after they get a little

626
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 3: bit of time in his scheme and in what he's

627
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 3: got going on, he just doesn't miss. And I think

628
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 3: that he's got what he needs. I think he's got

629
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 3: the confidence of Herbert, and he's got a he's got

630
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 3: this a nice supporting cast. They're going to run the

631
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 3: ball down people, just shove it down people's throats, just

632
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 3: force it down their throats, choking them out almost so

633
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 3: to speak, unless they don't have a gag reflex. But

634
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 3: I digress. I think that the Chargers will be number

635
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:08,120
Speaker 3: one and Case will be number two. I think Denver

636
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 3: will be competitive, I really do. I think this will

637
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 3: be a very very competitive year for the West. Outside

638
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 3: of the lonely number four Las Vegas Raiders, they won't

639
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 3: be competitive, but I think the other three teams will be.

640
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 4: Eh.

641
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 2: There you go. That's my AFC picks.

642
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 1: Which was the which division was the most difficult to

643
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: pick in the AFC? For you guys like I would

644
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: you say you struggled with.

645
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 6: If I'm being honest, I would say the AFC East,

646
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 6: AFC South, because you know, it's hard to pick a

647
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 6: lot of losses for teams because you're like, man, I

648
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 6: just picked.

649
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 4: The loss the last four games for that team, you know.

650
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,479
Speaker 6: But you know, there's a lot of things I look

651
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 6: at the buys, you know, home game advantage, so a

652
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 6: little you know stats for you. Between the nineteen seventies,

653
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 6: roughly nineteen seventeen twenty ten, home teams had a up

654
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 6: to sixty percent advantage, like sixty percent of the time

655
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 6: the home team's won. Since twenty nineteen, it's been closed

656
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 6: to like fifty two to fifty three percent. So when

657
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 6: I do these, obviously I try to factor some of

658
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 6: that in. If I'm like a little bit not sure

659
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 6: what I'm thinking about this matchup or whatever the case,

660
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 6: maybe I'll just kind of lean on more of a

661
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 6: home team in homefield advantage. But that's jodled over the

662
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 6: last six years, which is kind of interesting when you

663
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 6: look at it.

664
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 3: I say to North, Jonas, and I say the North

665
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 3: because I'm with it. I do not have an idea

666
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 3: of what Pittsburgh can be. Pittsburgh could actually sneak up

667
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,719
Speaker 3: on people and be the one that ends up on

668
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 3: top of.

669
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 4: Even though you've been against Rogers like the entire.

670
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's what I'm saying. I don't I'm not.

671
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 3: I'm not blind to the fact that they could possibly

672
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 3: be a competitive team more so than what I think.

673
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 3: I just think there's too many questions marks to make

674
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 3: that type of commitment.

675
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 6: So here's why it was somewhat easy for me, is

676
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 6: I feel like Sincinnian and Baltimore anny playoff teams, So

677
00:31:58,360 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 6: I know one of those two is going to win

678
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 6: it the way the schedule worked out, having to be

679
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 6: sincey the way I did it, and then I think

680
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 6: Cleveland would be somewhere in the bottom. So yeah, I

681
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 6: didn't know where Pittsburgh would end up. But at ten

682
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 6: and seven, I look at that and just say, okay,

683
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 6: Like that's that comes down to, like their schedule, who

684
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 6: they beat, who they didn't, which is interesting because like

685
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 6: ten and seven is a good record, and if it

686
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 6: does work out that way where they go ten and seven,

687
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 6: they don't make it. I'm not sure you make of things.

688
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 6: I'm not sure if Rogers comes back for another year,

689
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 6: maybe he does, maybe he doesn't.

690
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 3: Kind of find that all interesting, So I don't know

691
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 3: who's going to be one, two or three. That I

692
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 3: gave my prediction of what I think it will be.

693
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 3: I just don't know who will be one, two and three.

694
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 2: It could be. Also, it's such a musical chairs if

695
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 2: you have no idea.

696
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: I also struggled. I'm not crazy about taking the Chargers

697
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: with the Slater injury. They've got a running back who

698
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 1: you know, almost blew his face off at a fireworks

699
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: show and fourth of July like, I'm not that seems.

700
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 3: Can I give you a little bit of color there?

701
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 3: Can I give you something some optim And.

702
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,880
Speaker 1: I'm a big believer in the Super Bowl hangover. I

703
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: know that the Chiefs it doesn't apply to them or

704
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 1: the Patriots of the past number of number of years.

705
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: But I just wonder if you know age some other factors.

706
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 3: So when had Harball is always at his best when

707
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 3: there's some drama going on, think about that's right.

708
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 4: He wasn't even there in happy value last year and they.

709
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 3: Still always at his best when the drama he uses

710
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 3: that he uses that drama as like super fuel.

711
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 2: I'm just saying.

712
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 4: He's not wrong.

713
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,840
Speaker 6: Plus, I mean, justin coming from LaVar would know like

714
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 6: Penn state has not being Michigan in a while, so

715
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 6: it's been.

716
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 2: A long time.

717
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 1: Plus he got justin Herbert, you know, walking around playing

718
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: board games, drinking wine with that rocket ship Madison Beer.

719
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's still going on, but just

720
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 1: feels like.

721
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 6: It's you can't keep saying her name. It's only gonna

722
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 6: trigger lead immediately gon a liquor store, Like the whole name?

723
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 6: Why do you say the whole name like that?

724
00:33:58,640 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: What am I supped?

725
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 2: Saying? Just the way they.

726
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 3: Said it was a little bit ta bit creepy though,

727
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 3: Like I don't know beer, No, not the way you

728
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 3: just said it. When you said it, when it was

729
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 3: justin Herbert's Matt Madison Beer or whatever her name is,

730
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 3: you said it a little differently.

731
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: That's her name. I don't know what to tell you.

732
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: I thought Petros had a fair breakdown of her.

733
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:21,799
Speaker 2: You know, what was it?

734
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 1: She had a time where she was shopped in another aisle?

735
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 2: What was it?

736
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: What was it she was? That's correct, there were there's

00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 5: When that great twenty year era ended. It was always

783
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:47,359
Speaker 5: my intention to commission a statue for both Tommy and

784
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 5: Bill when their respective careers were over playing and coaching,

785
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 5: and when Bill's coaching career ends, we look forward to

786
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 5: sitting down with him and having as that you may

787
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 5: be right next to Tommy.

788
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 1: Was that Larry Merchant? Tommy, he's got a got a

789
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 1: Larry Merchant cadence going on.

790
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,719
Speaker 3: We want to sit down with him next to them

791
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 3: and make sure that we commission that. You think a

792
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,920
Speaker 3: statue next to Tommy.

793
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 1: I don't think Belichick is interested in, you know, getting

794
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: a statue or man, we're getting a celebration from Robert.

795
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,400
Speaker 2: Last time he was ever successful whoa.

796
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: The way, the way that relationship sort of dwindled towards

797
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,880
Speaker 1: the end, and since then the comments since then, I

798
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 1: don't think. I don't think that'll be happening anytime.

799
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 10: Could he could Robert Craft put up a statue of Bill,

800
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 10: Belichick said, I don't want there to be a statue.

801
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, I think when they use your uh,

802
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 6: your name in your face everything, yeah, I think it.

803
00:37:58,800 --> 00:37:59,320
Speaker 4: He could say no.

804
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: Say no to him might make it awkward if he's

805
00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: not there during the unveiling.

806
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,759
Speaker 2: Of it, though, why would he not be there?

807
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,919
Speaker 1: Jonas because they don't get along and don't like each other.

808
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:15,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's still his legacy, Jonas, Like, you cannot

809
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 3: like somebody, but they had great success together that that's

810
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,280
Speaker 3: not disqualified Jonas.

811
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:23,359
Speaker 1: Okay, well, then I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll

812
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: call every ax I ever knew that I didn't get

813
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,839
Speaker 1: along with afterwards, and we'll celebrate our anniversary again.

814
00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 2: I mean, what are you talking about?

815
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: That makes sense?

816
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 3: There was no success in that relationship. That's why they're

817
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 3: your ex.

818
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,839
Speaker 4: Oh boy, you guys are great.

819
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 3: That's ridiculous. Jonas is a horrible Uh. It was a

820
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:44,839
Speaker 3: good point by Jonas, though. I would like to see

821
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 3: that play itself out. I would like to see it,

822
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 3: but not for comparison's sake. I just would like to

823
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 3: see it. First of all, I'd like to see what
