1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Without question, one of 2 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: the most interesting teams in the NFL this year is 3 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,720 Speaker 1: gonna be Chicago for the second straight year. Everybody's jumping 4 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 1: on the Bears are headed to the playoff bandwagon, and 5 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 1: as we sit here in the middle of summer, just 6 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: sweating our tushes off, waiting to the point that we 7 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: get to actual football content, I found myself amazed. Not 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: that the Bears are going to be interesting going into 9 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 1: the season, not that we have a talking point around 10 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 1: Chicago and what they're gonna look like on the field, 11 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,839 Speaker 1: but that, for wild reasons, the Bears now find themselves 12 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: at the center of the NFL attention cycle for a 13 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: questionable signing, And it just makes me wonder sometimes why 14 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: bad football teams continually make bad football moves. It's Bucking 15 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 1: Fits taking over Fox Sports Radio on a Fox Sports Saturday. 16 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: He's Buck Rising, I'm Jason Fitz We're coming at you 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: live from the Fox Sports Radio studios, and Buck, you know, 18 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: I'm just say GM news doesn't usually make me percolate, 19 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: doesn't usually get me excited, doesn't make my no nose 20 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: say yes yes, But it did when I saw Ryan 21 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 1: Poles get an extension from Chicago Bears. And I'm sitting 22 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: here trying to figure out how a GM that has 23 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,479 Speaker 1: been in charge of a franchise that, to be clear, 24 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: had the first overall pick two consecutive years. They earned 25 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,320 Speaker 1: the first overall pick two consecutive years. They've done nothing 26 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: but lose football games, and last year was an unmitigated 27 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: disaster for the Bears. We haven't even seen the reclamation 28 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: project hit the field yet Chicago rewards a GM that 29 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: still had two years left on his contract with a 30 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: three year contract extension. I can't decide if Bears ownership 31 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: just likes tinkling away cash and so they figured they're 32 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: just going to guarantee more money to somebody that might stick, 33 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: or if Chicago see something the rest of the world 34 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: doesn't see Buck, But to me, at the very least 35 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: was curious. 36 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: I don't know how I could be expected to do 37 00:01:55,360 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: serious NFL general manager analysis When the show opened with 38 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: my make mine no no parts, say yes yes, and 39 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 2: then just the visual that you paided for the audience 40 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 2: of you sweating your tiny, little forty plus year old 41 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 2: pichhe off like I'm sorry that you're smoking panties are 42 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 2: all up in a bunch as we start the show today. 43 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 2: But you know what, the city of Chicago, they should 44 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,679 Speaker 2: have their panties in a bunch today because it's nonsense. 45 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: I know. 46 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 2: We can't cover all things and know all things all 47 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 2: the time at once, which is why you and I, 48 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 2: with the collection of people that we've been able to 49 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 2: bring into our lives, have at least enough of a 50 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: knowledge base to where if you have some questions about 51 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: a certain situation before you decide to tee off, you 52 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 2: can reach out and you can find out what maybe 53 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 2: am I missing here about this circumstance because on paper, 54 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 2: of course, don't make any damn sense at all to 55 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 2: give Ryan Pole's an extension. And so I texted a 56 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 2: friend of mine that covers the Bears, that is a 57 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 2: Chicago native, and just trying to understand what blind spots 58 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 2: I might have about this situation, and not only to 59 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 2: discover fits that people in Chicago are as confused about 60 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 2: this as anybody. This man had two years left on 61 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 2: his deal. General managers don't get more opportunities usually in 62 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,399 Speaker 2: the NFL after they get their first one. We see 63 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 2: retread coaches all the time. We do not see retread 64 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 2: general managers. So, in my tiny little pea brain, I'm 65 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: sitting here, I'm just pondering. With two years left on 66 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: his deal and a non existent track record of success 67 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 2: other than finding a quarterback and a coach who people 68 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 2: believe might turn into something at some point, maybe down 69 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 2: the line, provided that all the things that they need 70 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 2: to get done and have tried to get done in 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 2: the past couple of offseasons, finally, finally, finally, for a 72 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 2: franchise that has cursed at the court position, finally these 73 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 2: things come to fruition. Two years left on his deal? 74 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 2: What the hell is the urgency? What leverage did Ryan 75 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: Poles have here? Wouldn't it all be wouldn't it be 76 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: nice for all of us who work in contract situations 77 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 2: to just, you know, have two years left on your 78 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 2: deal and somebody just shove more money in your face 79 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: and say no, please, don't go anywhere? Where was he 80 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 2: gonna go? Where is the market for Ryan Poles? What 81 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: am I missing about this situation? 82 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, because the other part of it is it's not like, oh, well, 83 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: you know what, he's got two years left on his deal, 84 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 1: but he's gone to the Super Bowl eighteen time. I'm like, 85 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: if this is Howie Roseman, I don't care how many 86 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 1: years he's got left on his deal. You want to 87 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: just keep paying Howie Roseman whatever you want to pay 88 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: Howie Roseman. That makes sense. Okay. We all have a 89 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: friend somewhere that is just the worst in relationships, like 90 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: the most dysfunctional friend day. This is this is that 91 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: guy the Chicago Bears. We all have that one friend 92 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: in our friend sickle And by the way, if you don't, 93 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: then it might be you that you know, is the 94 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: guy that's in a terrible relationship. 95 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 3: With the girl or their partner, whoever they're in a 96 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 3: relationship with. 97 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: They get in an absolute brawl with them where it's 98 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: like that's it, we are done, I'm never speaking to 99 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: you again. And the next day it's like, yeah, ask 100 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 1: to marry me, Like that is what this is. Where 101 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: it's like you are coming off of the worst of 102 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: the worst and you're gonna sit you and be like yeah, 103 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: esst because like, let's remember whatever tools we think that 104 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 1: the Bears have in the shed. Right now, we have 105 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: to acknowledge that Ryan Bols was part of the organization 106 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: that did earn the first overall pick two years in 107 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: a row, even though they traded it the second time. 108 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: He is the head of the regime that decided to 109 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: keep Eberflus for no reason. Like the whole world, anybody 110 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: that didn't have their head firmly planted up there we 111 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: were in last year, knew that Eberflus was a bad idea, 112 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: right like we all saw that. 113 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: So dumb, so dumb. And you know, I I this 114 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: is what I appreciate about about NFL organizations and NFL fans, 115 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 2: And I do think that this is a It's probably 116 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 2: some level of reruns that I'm in whether I've said 117 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 2: this on Fox or with you or on the local 118 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 2: show here in Nashville, or whatever the case may be. 119 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 2: But just because these people make millions of dollars, even 120 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 2: at the highest of high levels in these organizations, that 121 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: don't make them smarter than you. You know what I'm 122 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 2: saying Like this, this is the kind of thing that 123 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: shows even though the Bears have hope and the Bears 124 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 2: have promise, and the Bears have a young quarterback with 125 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 2: an aspiring, potentially potentially right fit type of head coach, 126 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 2: they can still get in their own way and continue 127 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 2: to make the organization bad because you can't trust their 128 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 2: decision making. I mean, Fitzy, I cover the Titans, you're 129 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 2: a fan of the Raiders. We have both been through 130 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 2: varying levels of what the hell are you doing with 131 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 2: the organizations that we spend the vast majority of our 132 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: time talking about, or you know, covering or rooting for 133 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 2: whatever the case may be. No matter who you are, 134 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 2: this is and I'm just I'm Ben Johnson, the new 135 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 2: head coach there. You don't have a pre existing relationship 136 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: with Ryan Poles. So even if you wanted to put 137 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 2: them on the same timeline, it's not like Ben Johnson's 138 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 2: out here banging the table, the new hot young coach 139 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 2: that you just added to yourselse. It's not like he's 140 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 2: banging the table to say no, Ryan Poles and I 141 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: have to be interlocked. We have to be lockstep. I mean, 142 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 2: of course they have to be lockstep, but in terms 143 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: of like their contractual timeline, it is a huge vote 144 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: of confidence in Ryan Poles for what What about the 145 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 2: Bears gives anybody confidence? The Bears best thing going right now. 146 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: And I know this because I cover a team that 147 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 2: just drafted the number one overall pick and is in 148 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 2: a similar situation where they don't expect to be good 149 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty five, but at least they have the 150 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: thing that's going to sue them for the time being. 151 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 2: They have hope. They have the hope of a young quarterback, 152 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: a young promising quarterback, and Chicago has that. Beyond that, 153 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: they don't have Jack. 154 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: To me, it's the timing of it that just makes 155 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: this full on stupid, Like there's just no nice way 156 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: to say that, because with two years left in the deal, 157 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: this is so wildly unnecessary. Again, if you were right, 158 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: if the Bears believe that Ryan Poles is a mastermind 159 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: and he's about to be Howie Roseman in the second right, 160 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: if that's what they truly believe, you got him on 161 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: a contract for two more years. Let it play out. 162 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: Save yourself a little bit of time, save yourself a 163 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: little bit of grief, save yourself a little aggravation. There 164 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: is no salary cap for front office employees, so you 165 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: don't have to worry about getting ahead on a contract. 166 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 3: You just save yourself everything and wait and. 167 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: See how it plays out. Yeah, he got the coach 168 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,559 Speaker 1: that everybody coveted this offseason, combined with the number one 169 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: overall picked that most people did not question a year ago. 170 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: This looks really good for Chicago. But where's the harm 171 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: in just letting it play out. You don't have to 172 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: elope right now. You don't have to turn around and 173 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: suddenly get into this situation with two years left. If 174 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: they're right, all they did was speed up having to 175 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: pay more money, which doesn't really help them in any way, 176 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 1: shape or form. If they're wrong, now all of a 177 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: sudden they got to deal with And you know this 178 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: better than anybody covering the Titans. Ownership spends a bunch 179 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: of money. Oh man. Anytime ownership extends somebody and that 180 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: involves new money on it, they are more hesitant to 181 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: simply pull the plug because it's embarrassing for everybody involved 182 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: that said spend the money. So now, all of a 183 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: sudden that if Ryan Poles and the Bears stink this year, 184 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: are the Bears going to be as quick to move 185 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: off of him, knowing that they just guaranteed a lot 186 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: more money to him one way or the other. I 187 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't want to face that variable if I'm a Bears 188 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: fan right now. 189 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 2: Also, who the hell is running the Bears? Like Virginia 190 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 2: allis mccaski passed away. She's been the longtime matriarch of 191 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: that franchise, and I went down Reddit rabbit holes trying 192 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: to figure out the ownership structure for the Bears. I 193 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 2: tried to look up resources, and like, I know that 194 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 2: there are people running the Bears organization. I know the 195 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 2: McCaskey family has been running the Bear's organization. I understand 196 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 2: that that is a family owned business. It's a bit 197 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 2: of a mom and pop shop, and those things exist 198 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: everywhere in the NFL. But again, like you say, me 199 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: knowing better than most, I cover an organization that had 200 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 2: some in fighting, we'll call it at the top. When 201 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 2: Bud Adams, the long time the founder of the Houston 202 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 2: Oilers then turned Tennessee Titans franchise, passed away and all 203 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 2: his children and family members were trying to figure out 204 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 2: how to divvy up the ownership structure, and the league 205 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: was getting pissed at them because nobody really knew who 206 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 2: was running the Titans, and the Titans were god forsaken 207 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 2: at the time until Amy Adams Strunk, who is now 208 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 2: the controlling owner, stepped in to that role in twenty 209 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,439 Speaker 2: fifteen and has since been the one that at least 210 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 2: you can hold her accountable. You know, the face of 211 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 2: the person making the decisions on this. Bears fans must 212 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 2: be in a total blender about this situation. And I 213 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: got to witness this firsthand because that's who the Titans 214 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 2: opened with last year famously with the Will Levis interception. 215 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 2: I was convinced that was going to be the worst 216 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 2: football player of his career, and then he very quickly 217 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: did it again in Week two on home game against 218 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 2: the Jets. I witnessed Bears fans watching their new first 219 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 2: overall picket quarterback throwing for less than one hundred yards 220 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 2: and basically get bailed out by how stupid the Titans 221 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 2: were in that particular game, with a punt blocked and 222 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: a Will Levis interception that literally gave the game away 223 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 2: on one singular play that you can point to and 224 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: say that's how they lost. They were just getting ready 225 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 2: for another miserable season, Like there was some hype around 226 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 2: it initially, and then when they watched it and they 227 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 2: saw their quarterback running for his life behind an offensive 228 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 2: line constructed by Ryan Poles, that was god awful. And 229 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: I know that they have put in a ton of 230 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: work this offseason, or at least they have made a 231 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: bunch of moves. We'll see if those moves come to 232 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 2: fruition to try and protect the franchise, the literal franchise. 233 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:38,080 Speaker 2: I just witnessed how miserable this person recently made Bears 234 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 2: fans by his inability to construct a competent roster, and 235 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 2: yet with two years left on his deal, we're talking 236 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 2: about him getting an extension when absolutely it's like one 237 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 2: of those things I hate doing internet meme on the 238 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 2: radio type of stuff, but like it's when you see 239 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 2: those tweets and it says, you know, no one colon right, 240 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 2: nobody's talking, nobody's speaking, nobody has uttered a thought into 241 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 2: the universe. And then all of a sudden, followed up 242 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 2: by the Chicago Bears give Ryan Poles multi year extension 243 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 2: based on what nobody asked for this. They surely they 244 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: aren't asking for this. I don't I don't get it. 245 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 2: I just I simply do not get it. This is 246 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 2: how bad teams stay bad. 247 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: And this is the constant conversation we have. What do 248 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: you do when the favorite your favorite team is owned 249 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: by somebody run by somebody day in and day out. 250 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: Operationally handled by somebody that is incompetent at that job. 251 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: That is the like everybody wants to yell about, you know, 252 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: the issues of the league, or yell at Roger Goodell, 253 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 1: or yell at their favorite team's GM or their favorite 254 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: team's coach and their favorite team's quarterback. But what do 255 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: you do when edit's very core, all the way down 256 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: to the real bottom of the issue is your favorite 257 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: team is owned by a bunch of people that are 258 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: incompetent and incapable of actually owning a football team or 259 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 1: a basketball team or hockey like that is where you 260 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: lose your hope.

We got I and 347 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 2: Mary holding it down in Los Angeles and Fitzie was 348 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 2: getting ready to tell us about Kirk Cousins and why 349 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 2: he does not believe that the current Falcons backup quarterback 350 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 2: is going anywhere. But before we do that, I know 351 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 2: you have some thoughts on the ongoing WWE SmackDown event 352 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 2: that's going on in Atlanta right now. I went to 353 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 2: WWE for the first time last night, Fitsie, and for 354 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 2: all the things that I just said about a certain 355 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 2: segment of the population that I was very much in 356 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 2: the middle of last night, respectfully, with all the wrestling fans, 357 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 2: I had the time of my life. I was not 358 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 2: expecting to enjoy that as much as I did. It 359 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 2: was a delightful live event. I don't think I didn't 360 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 2: really appreciate how athletic professional wrestlers actually are until you 361 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 2: see that up close and in person. And we were 362 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 2: sitting fifth row hard camera site, I believe it is 363 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 2: what they call it last night at bridge Stone Arena 364 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 2: here in downtown Nashville, and it was a great deal 365 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: of fun. But you have a personal connection with an 366 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 2: ongoing match right now that's also featuring one of my friends. 367 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, so and this is wild. Like so Buck, I'll 368 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 1: take you back in time a right, Let's go back 369 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: into the time machine of the childhood of one Jason Fitz. 370 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: But this is not therapy. 371 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 3: For once, when I was a kid, Saturday Night's main. 372 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: Event was a really big deal. So my parents are 373 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: big Saturday Night Live fans, so am I. It's ingrained 374 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: in part of my culture. 375 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 2: It's one of my. 376 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: Part of my being. Saturday Night Live is huge. But 377 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: then every once in a while, Saturday Night Live would 378 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: be preempted and instead you would get Saturday Night's main event, 379 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: and it'd be one of the rare. 380 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 3: Times where you would see like Macho Man in Hall 381 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 3: COVID and oother. 382 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 1: People actually wrestle, Like back when I was a kid 383 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 1: on Saturdays on the weekends, they just basically talk to 384 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: each other and then rarely wrestled. But Saturday Night's main 385 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: event was a big deal, So what you saw last 386 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: night was sort of the precursor to what was happening tonight. Peacock. 387 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 1: NBC still does the occasional Saturday Night's main event, so 388 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: they bring it in tonight. And the opening match had 389 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 1: your friend Jelly Roll, who as they just went to commercial, 390 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: was being rolled out of the ring after just being 391 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: a night elated. So Jelly Roll took a big old 392 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: je Jelly Roll was at least at least on camera, 393 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: he was knocked him out, you know. So Jelly rolla 394 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: took one a good buddy of yours. But I want 395 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: to give a shoutout, like I've talked a lot. I 396 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: know it's obnoxious, Like, guys, I realized I talk a 397 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 1: lot about my fitness journey. It's about it's almost as 398 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 1: bad at this point as somebody that's gluten free that 399 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: has to tell you they're gluten. 400 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 3: Very vegan, like you're not really vegan, like unless you 401 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 3: tell everybody you're. 402 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 2: Vegan quickly before you continue on. Should this also? I 403 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 2: leave it up to Ian the independent arbiter arbiter of 404 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: these things. Should every time fits He mentions his fitness journey. 405 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 2: Should that also be a fine before we get to 406 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 2: the thing that we're actually going to find him for 407 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 2: later in the show. 408 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 7: I'm gonna say yes, and we'll also be blowing a 409 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 7: whistle whenever there's a fine. 410 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: So hello, I'm just gonna let you know when I down, 411 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: you can throw the fine at me and dollar bill 412 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: for him, because when I get abs, I'm never wearing 413 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 1: a shirt again. I've worked hard for it. But the 414 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: guy that really has changed my life over the course 415 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: of last year is a Nashville guy named Jeff Black. 416 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: Fine Jeff Jeff Jeff.

Like all I was doing is 522 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 1: human precent Okay, Okay, that's what things are gonna want. 523 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 2: I love that the two of them are on my side, 524 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 2: which is they should not align themselves with me. You 525 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 2: are infinitely nicer and more or generous, and you do 526 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 2: you have your alarm set to go off every time 527 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: towards the end of the show when you disingenuously make 528 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 2: sure that to thank all of the people doing the 529 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 2: very very difficult work back there in Los Angeles. It's 530 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 2: very very hollow. It's just it comes across that way anyway, 531 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 2: But I love that they have a line. 532 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: At the same at the same. 533 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 2: I don't Night and Mary, I don't believe I've mentioned 534 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 2: him once. I believe that has come from the other side. 535 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 4: And why is because he said he's a sovereign nation 536 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 4: and then can't and then admit that he can't spell 537 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 4: sovereign correct. 538 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: I mean, of course I can't spell sovereign. My god, 539 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 1: I'm pretty smart. I mean, look, at least I'm honest 540 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: about where I am with this. I'm just saying, like 541 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: every time your buddy Jelly Roll introduces the band at 542 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: the same time in the show every night, does that 543 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 1: make it disingenuous that he's introducing the band? Okay, I agree, 544 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: these these fines will not stand. You know, Kirk Cousins 545 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: can pay all my fines. That's a fact that he 546 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: can pay all my fines over and over and over again. 547 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 1: But the funny thing is Quarterback is back out for Netflix. 548 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: And I'm not sure who was clamoring for Kirk Cousins 549 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 1: to be a part of this again. Like, I mean, 550 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: I think we all got right, Like we got enough 551 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: vanilla ice cream last year. I'm not sure sure we 552 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 1: needed more of it. Like this is just vanilla bean 553 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: instead of vanilla. But the more I watched this and 554 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: I saw everybody just blown up. Oh what a great 555 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 1: teammate Kirk Cousins was because he took the time to 556 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: call Michael Pennick Junior when Penick Junior was getting the 557 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 1: job and just you know, past the torch blah blah 558 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Who cares? I mean right now today 559 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: is we're going into the Falcons season. I just I 560 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: keep thinking that we are trying so desperately buck to 561 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: make this like some weird thing, and this is really simple. 562 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: The Atlanta Falcons quarterback situation is simple. Michael Pennick Junior 563 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: has only thrown for about seven hundred and fifty yards 564 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: so far as a professional quarterback. They have no idea 565 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: if that's really gonna last through the season. They've already 566 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: paid Kirk Cousins a boatload of guaranteed money that they 567 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: can't get back. There is absolutely no benefit to the 568 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,959 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons for getting rid of Kirk Cousins. 569 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 3: At any point, Pennix could get hurt. Pennix could come. 570 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,400 Speaker 1: Out and turn out to be a flash in the pan. 571 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: They could also send kirk Cousins somewhere else where, he 572 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: suddenly the light goes back on and he's great again. 573 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: All of these things like, no, there is no reward, 574 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: it's only risk, and there is no reason for the 575 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: Falcons to take risks. So as much as people sit 576 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: here and say, well they don't want the locker room 577 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: problem with it, there's never been an indication that Kirk 578 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: Cousins is a locker room problem. A but B even 579 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 1: if he is, if I'm Arthur Blank, the owner of 580 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: the Falcons, I tell him to sit down, shut up 581 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 1: in color in his very expensive books that he can 582 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: buy with all the guaranteed money I give him. I 583 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: don't give a damn about what his attitude towards me 584 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: in the backup is. He's going to be a quarterback 585 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: in that room. 586 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 2: I went at kirk Cousins pretty hard earlier this week 587 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,360 Speaker 2: because I just think it comes off as whiny. Every 588 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 2: time he talks about this. He's asked about it quite 589 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 2: a bit. He's very comfortable offering his opinion on this situation, 590 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 2: and he and he does well to preface, and I 591 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 2: believe it to be genuine when he says this, that 592 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 2: he understands how the league works, and the NFL the 593 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 2: not for long thing. We've all talked about it a 594 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 2: million times over that cliche and Kirk Cousins lost his 595 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 2: job to a quarterback that was drafted with the eighth 596 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 2: overall pick. These things are very natural. What is seen 597 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 2: makes it a little bit more difficult to wrap your 598 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 2: head around. Is like you mentioned the amount of guaranteed 599 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 2: money that the Falcons paid him prior to drafting Michael 600 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 2: Pennix with the eighth overall pick. Somebody called into the 601 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 2: local show Fitzie and asked, me, all right, say you're 602 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 2: hosting your own radio show. You're and I do. It's 603 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 2: got my name on it, and I get to be 604 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 2: the star of the show, like all the things that 605 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 2: a clout monster like me enjoys. But at some point 606 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 2: the radio station then decided, Okay, we think you'd be 607 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 2: better if we took you out of the driver's seat 608 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 2: and we put somebody else in the show to drive 609 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 2: the show for you, but you still get your money. 610 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 2: Would you be okay with that? And I thought that 611 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 2: I would be able to handle something like that. Nobody 612 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 2: else that works on my show thought that I would 613 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 2: be able to handle something like that in stride. It 614 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 2: humanized the kirk Cousins things a little bit because we 615 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 2: all have an example that we could relate that to. 616 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: He is not going to be He's not going to 617 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 2: go anywhere. For all the reasons that you just articulate, 618 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 2: the Falcons want stability in their quarterback room and that 619 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 2: includes kirk Cousins. They want to be able to make 620 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 2: a push for a division that's very winnable, and the 621 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 2: Bucks have been able to handle it. Basically, I think 622 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 2: haven't They won the division every year that Todd Bowles 623 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 2: has been the coach, which is kind of crazy to 624 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 2: think about. And it's not been the toughest of competition, 625 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 2: right Nobody thinks it is of the NFC South as 626 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 2: world beaters. So for all the reasons that you just 627 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 2: correctly articulated, kirk Cousins shouldn't be on another roster, no 628 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 2: matter what the offer is around the trade deadline time, 629 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 2: because somebody's going to get hurt, right, somebody's going to 630 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 2: get hurt. A quarterback's going to get hurt, A team's 631 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 2: going to come sniffing around. Kirk Cousins is viable enough, 632 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 2: depending on the level of contender, that this football team. 633 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 2: Hypothetical football team that experiences a quarterback injury is and 634 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 2: teams are going to come sniffing around kirk Cousins. Teams 635 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 2: have sniffed around kirk Cousin. Now, whether or not the 636 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 2: price is enough to make the Falcons feel like they 637 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: need to make a move here is an entirely different thing. 638 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 2: But I just every time I hear him speak, specifically FITZI, 639 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 2: he just sounds like he is he's having regrets about 640 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:24,880 Speaker 2: taking the money because he seems to want to go 641 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 2: back to Minnesota. I know he hasn't said as much publicly, 642 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 2: and I know his wife's from Atlanta, and I'm sure 643 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 2: that had a big part of the reason to do 644 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,719 Speaker 2: with the fact that his last big contract ended up 645 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 2: being in Atlanta. The whole thing just seems like, all right, 646 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 2: you can complain about this publicly as much as you want, 647 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 2: and you can offer whatever context it is that is 648 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 2: completely humanizing and completely fair, But you still have a 649 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 2: bunch of money to go home and be sad about 650 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 2: it at the end of the day, no matter how 651 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 2: much you might regret your decisions. And the Falcons, if 652 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 2: anybody should have buyer's remorse, it's the Falcons, because they 653 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 2: are the ones who paid him all this guaranteed money 654 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 2: just to take the quarterback, the first round quarterback eighth overall, 655 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 2: in the same offseason that they paid Kirk Cousins. So 656 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 2: if anybody would be complaining about the situation, it should 657 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 2: probably be the. 658 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: Falcons, I mean, and that's all the more reason that 659 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: I don't think Arthur Blank's gonna just just suddenly wash 660 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: away all the guaranteed money he's paid. I mean, very 661 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 1: specifically to your question that your guys asked you. I 662 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: was on morning radio on ESPN five days a week, 663 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, I got a call one 664 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: day and it was like, Okay, we're taking you off 665 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: that show, and now we're putting you on a midday 666 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: show reacting to Steven aclips that I had no interest 667 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 1: in doing, but that's what I was told to do. 668 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: So then I went to a mid day show reacting 669 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: to Steven Aclipse and then what do you know, management changed, 670 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, they're like, hey, we're taking 671 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: you off the midday show that has your name on it, 672 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: and now you're back at night radio where you were 673 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: two years ago. And all of a sudden, I was 674 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 1: on night radio and I had no say in that, 675 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden I went back to 676 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 1: midday radio. Like I worked at a place where where 677 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: you're as behind the curtains for most people entertainment contracts 678 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: in places like ESPN. If you sit there and say, 679 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: oh my god, ESPN should fire this person, I just 680 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: want you to know. Contracts are fully guaranteed, so once 681 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: you sign a contract, you're getting every time of it. 682 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: People don't get fired at ESPN. It doesn't work that way. 683 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: They get bought out basically, so they still get their money. 684 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: I lived all of the things your guys are describing, 685 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: And what did I do every time I went to 686 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: damn work? Because you're paid guaranteed some to work for 687 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: a company with no guarantee that you're going to be 688 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: in the same time slot one day that you are 689 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: the next, that's just real to the business that were 690 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: in hell. I was on a digital show that was 691 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: out with Game Day for a year amazing. We did 692 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: electric work and I was taking off that show for 693 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 1: the next year. Not for anything I did. They just 694 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: put me on a different show. Did I want to 695 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,479 Speaker 1: go to a different show? No, But at the end 696 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 1: of the day. They pay you a guaranteed some not 697 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: to have a guaranteed role. They pay you a guaranteed 698 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: some to be part of an organization. That's what an 699 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: entertainment contract is, right to me, I sit here, look 700 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: at Kirk Cousins, like to answer the question for the 701 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: people on your show, people were guaranteed money, do this 702 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: all the time. Once you were paid. The only thing 703 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: you got is what you were guaranteed to get the 704 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: day you got paid. Everything else, and it's it's you 705 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 1: weren't it or you don't. It's pretty simple on that. 706 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 1: My sympathy for Kirk Cousins is dried up by the 707 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: amount of money he's made. It's simple, yeah, And I 708 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: mean I don't. 709 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 2: I do struggle with some elements of that because money 710 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 2: money doesn't guarantee happiness, as many people in their lives 711 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 2: have found out, and it doesn't solve all the issues, 712 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 2: all the unhappiness that may come from it. But it's 713 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 2: incumbent upon you to figure out the best solution. To 714 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 2: your point, you are a hard worker. You figured it 715 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 2: out even though the circumstance was not ideal for you. 716 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: You understood what the day and I'm not doing this 717 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 2: to you know, blow smoke up you, But you understand 718 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 2: what I'm saying, Like people in these situations do that, 719 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 2: do that in stride. I don't understand why kirk Cousins 720 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 2: is having such a difficult time with the go ahead. 721 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 2: What were you gonna say? 722 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 5: No? 723 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: My My only thing is money doesn't solve anything. But 724 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: the reason that athletes press so hard for guaranteed money 725 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: is because, and this is what agents and athletes will 726 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: always tell you, it's the only guarantee you have. So 727 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: you knew the day you signed the guaranteed one hundred 728 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 1: million dollars deal that the only thing you were guaranteed 729 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:21,839 Speaker 1: was that one hundred million dollars, not a starting role. 730 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: You were just guaranteed one hundred million. And the thought is, 731 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 1: we're gonna make him guarantee us so much money that 732 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,439 Speaker 1: it has to guarantee our role. When that doesn't happen, man, 733 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,919 Speaker 1: that's life, all right, He's buck rising.

It was Dungeons and Dragons 787 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: with a lot of nudity. That's all that show ever was. 788 00:36:59,480 --> 00:36:59,879 Speaker 2: It's fun. 789 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 1: Seems just seems weird that Dungeons and Dragons with a 790 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: ton of nudity became a cultural phenomenon like when I 791 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:05,839 Speaker 1: was a kid. 792 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 2: I feel like that makes all the sense in the world, 793 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:08,840 Speaker 2: to be honest with it. 794 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: Okay, okay that but that it doesn't like one of 795 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 1: us was alive in the eighties and if you played 796 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,280 Speaker 1: like dice like role playing games like Dungeons and Dragons 797 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: in the eighties. I hate to be the one to 798 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 1: break this to the world. You were not popular, like 799 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,359 Speaker 1: that was not something that was Like Stranger Things has 800 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,960 Speaker 1: changed the way we see a whole group of a 801 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: whole sub section of kids in the eighties, Like there 802 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 1: were not kids that were walking around me, like willn't 803 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,400 Speaker 1: you come over with pre Dungeons and Dragons tonight that 804 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: had friends all right, that just wasn't real. So, you know, 805 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 1: it just surprises me a little bit. The Dungeons and 806 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: Dragons with you know, a lot of nudity suddenly became 807 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:42,759 Speaker 1: a cultural phenomenon that everyone's into. 808 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 2: I don't know how many friends Lebron James is gonna 809 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 2: make by exercising a fifty two point six million dollars 810 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 2: player option and then having his buddy Clutch Sports CEO 811 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 2: Rich Paul out here talking to any newsbreaker that will 812 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 2: pay him mind and should pay him mind. Understandably, oh, 813 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 2: that they are not necessarily happy with the situation, even 814 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 2: though they exercise the fifty two point six million dollar 815 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 2: player option to do exactly that for the twenty twenty 816 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 2: five twenty twenty six season. Fifty what's more likely is 817 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 2: Lebron James on the Lakers for the entire upcoming season 818 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 2: or is he playing for another team? 819 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 1: I still think he's playing for the Lakers, because I 820 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: don't see an easy solution to any of this. Like 821 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: to your point, if for all the people like, oh, 822 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 1: he wants to go out and win a championship, okay, well, 823 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: then don't opt in on that contract. Like if you 824 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: just if the only thing that matters is a championship, brother, 825 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 1: then go get you one in Cleveland, or go get 826 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: you one, you know, go join Oklahoma City. Like just 827 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:44,800 Speaker 1: at this point, if you're just wanting to put yourself 828 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 1: in the best situation to win a championship, then take 829 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,240 Speaker 1: the absolute lightest amount of cash that you can possibly 830 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 1: take and go play somewhere else. I just once you 831 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: take the opt in, I think what you think is 832 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: going to happen is that you're Lebron and everybody's going 833 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 1: to sort of coward to that. But what the Lakers 834 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:02,439 Speaker 1: are doing now kind of makes sense. 835 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 3: Like I don't have a heart. 836 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 1: If the Lakers didn't notify you know, Lebron, but they 837 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: did notify Luca of a transaction, I don't care, Like 838 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 1: I just I cannot find the space to need to 839 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 1: give a damn about whether or not the Lakers played 840 00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: the appropriate office politics. 841 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 3: To try and get themselves in on Lebron the right way. 842 00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 1: It's just who cares well. 843 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 2: I do think that he is due a certain level 844 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 2: of respect, right because of who he is and everything 845 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 2: that he's accomplished. 846 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,240 Speaker 1: Two million dollars is that's respect. 847 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 2: It's it's a different version of the Kirk Cousins argument. Right, 848 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 2: that's what the money's for, big boy, if you figure 849 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 2: it out after the fact. But it's it's crazy to 850 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:45,400 Speaker 2: say the fifty two point six million dollars probably doesn't 851 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 2: mean that much to Lebron James, but it kind of 852 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 2: doesn't fits. And especially I just the fact that Rich 853 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 2: Paul went to ESPN immediately to start giving quotes about 854 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 2: what Lebron wants and this, that and the other after 855 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,840 Speaker 2: taking their money. He taking their money and then making 856 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 2: these statements. It's just a really really I just don't 857 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:05,439 Speaker 2: think it's a good look. 858 00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:08,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's also remember brownis there too. 859 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 1: The Lakers have done everything they need to. What NBA 860 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,920 Speaker 1: story should we be talking about. We'll tell you next 861 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:18,839 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio. You're listening to Fox Sports Radio radios. 862 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: Fucking fits on Fox Sports Radio on Fox Sports Saturday. 863 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 1: I'm learning how to talk. Apparently he's Buck rising out 864 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,760 Speaker 1: Jason Fitz hanging out with you tonight. 865 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 2: Buck. 866 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 1: How much do great players actually lead to big wins? 867 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 1: And this is a complicated question, especially in the NFL, 868 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: because all the time we say, well, my team has 869 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: a great this, or that my team has a great 870 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 1: tight end, my team has a great wide receiver, my 871 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,800 Speaker 1: team has a great running back. But the question is 872 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: does any of that really result in the most important thing, 873 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: which is winning the Super Bowl. It is a weird 874 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 1: situation to me because while I acknowledge that you need 875 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: to have a very good roster to win the Super Bowl, 876 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 1: and while I acknowledge that if you don't have a 877 00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 1: quarterback that can at least compete with Patrick Mahomes, which 878 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: is very difficult to do, it's going to be difficult 879 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,760 Speaker 1: to get to a super Bowl outside of that quarterback position. 880 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that it really matters if you've got 881 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 1: the best of the best at any position. And this 882 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 1: all comes because, you know, ESPN is going through their 883 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 1: list of best positions across the board, the best players 884 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 1: at each position, I should say across the board. And 885 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: there was some conversation amongst you know, fans about the 886 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,840 Speaker 1: fact that you were just around tight End University and 887 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 1: right now is the golden era for tight ends, Like 888 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 1: it's just it's unbelievable. 889 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 3: I around tight End University. 890 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,719 Speaker 1: I had the chance to interview Kittle, and I've talked 891 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 1: to Kelsey and Laporta and Brock and we talked to 892 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: all these guys and just seeing you no, no, no, no, 893 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 1: I think it's important context. It's not it's it's it's 894 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 1: context here. When you ask tight ends in the league 895 00:41:57,400 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 1: why it's so important that you have a great tight end, 896 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,359 Speaker 1: they'll tell you because of all of the different things 897 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: that they can do and the different options it gives 898 00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 1: you offensively. But I guess my question is like the 899 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 1: if a site, if ESPN wants to turn around and 900 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 1: decide that the best tight end in the NFL is 901 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 1: brock Powers, does that mean anything? Are you really gonna 902 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 1: win games suddenly because you have the best tight end 903 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,399 Speaker 1: in the NFL? I don't think you do well. 904 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,160 Speaker 2: I think if the Super Bowl taught us, this most 905 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 2: recent Super Bowl taught us anything, it's that you just 906 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 2: you have to have the best well rounded the most 907 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:30,359 Speaker 2: well rounded team. 908 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 5: Right. 909 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 2: The best quarterback in the world is not enough alone 910 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,799 Speaker 2: to win a Super Bowl against an overwhelming pass rush 911 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,280 Speaker 2: and defensive backs that are going to knock his receivers 912 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:40,760 Speaker 2: off kilter and throw the passing game out of rhythm. 913 00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 2: And I think the tight end position is an interesting 914 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 2: case study here. Though, FITZI, because to your point, tight 915 00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 2: End You was here in Nashville. I guess that was 916 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 2: just last week with George Kittle, who lives here in 917 00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:55,880 Speaker 2: the offseason, and Greg Olsen, the retired tight end. Now 918 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:59,359 Speaker 2: is he's is he calling games actively right? 919 00:42:59,400 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 7: No? 920 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 2: Or is he not doing yes? 921 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:01,319 Speaker 7: Yeah? 922 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 2: Okay, he is actively on the number two team. 923 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:05,399 Speaker 1: He's okay, number two broadcasts, don't. 924 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 2: I don't get to see the NFL broadcast because I'm 925 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 2: covering games on Sunday. 926 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 1: So I's by far the best at what he does 927 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 1: and should be number one. But tom Brady's Tom Brady, 928 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 1: and you know, so that means tom Brady's number one 929 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 1: and a number. 930 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 2: Two conversation for another day for sure. But Kittle at 931 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 2: this tight end You thing, and this is courtesy of 932 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 2: ESPN's NFL Live, because tight End You has turned into 933 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 2: a big enough thing and now Taylor Swift is playing 934 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 2: pop up shows at Brooklyn Bowl here in Nashville as 935 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 2: a result, because of course, her relationship with Travis Kelsey. 936 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 2: She must really love him, by the way, if she's 937 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 2: willing to show up to the tight end You stuff 938 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,800 Speaker 2: at this point. But Kittle was on NFL Live talking 939 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 2: about why he believes that his position shocking to know 940 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:48,760 Speaker 2: one that he would have a slide amount of bias 941 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 2: and has also played at a Super Bowl, so his 942 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:52,919 Speaker 2: words do carry Wait, he's I would argue the most 943 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 2: well rounded tight end going right now in professional football 944 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 2: where Rob Gronkowski used to be that. I think George 945 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 2: Kittle is kind of taken in that mantle. This was 946 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,360 Speaker 2: George Kittle on NFL Live at tight End You talking 947 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,400 Speaker 2: about the importance of an elite tight end. 948 00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 9: One of my favorite things to look back on is 949 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 9: if you look at the past, like ten Super Bowl winners, 950 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 9: every team has either a Gronk, a Kelsey, Dallas Goddard, 951 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 9: Like you have an elite tight end playing that makes 952 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:18,440 Speaker 9: place for your threattholes. 953 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, at the playoffs, super Bowl, you have guys that 954 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 2: make plays. 955 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 9: And so I just think, guys, saw you know, Gronk 956 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 9: and the Patriots win all these championships, right, you know, 957 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 9: we need to invest a little bit more time in 958 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 9: these tight ends. 959 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 2: Wait, we get them some more ops. 960 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 9: So I just think's offenses have seen successive other teams 961 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 9: using tight ends so much, and now're like, oh, we're 962 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 9: gonna try using them too, and now you see all 963 00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,879 Speaker 9: these tight ends from every team. 964 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 2: You know, the Ravens have a great tight end room. 965 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,720 Speaker 9: They had what Charlie Colar, Isaiah Likely and Mark Andrew's 966 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:44,840 Speaker 9: like three great tight end and like, so you building 967 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,320 Speaker 9: these rooms of the tight ends. Now you go eleven personnel, 968 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 9: twelve personnel, thirteen, twenty two, all these personnels with multiple tight. 969 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 2: Ends, and that's the best way to play the game. 970 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,440 Speaker 2: I was talking to Jordan Matthews. You might remember him 971 00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,800 Speaker 2: from Vanderbilt FITZI when you were working here locally. He 972 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 2: continues to have an NFL career, but he converted from 973 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 2: wide receiver to tight end. He was a tight end 974 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 2: most recently for the Carolina Panthers. And we were talking 975 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 2: about this on the local show because he had a 976 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 2: Vandy Legend celebrity softball game this weekend that we were 977 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 2: we were promoting. And his point about that not a fine? 978 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:16,839 Speaker 1: Is that not a fine? You just brought up, Jordan 979 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 1: mett Like, that's not a fine. 980 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:23,359 Speaker 2: No, I don't hear a whistle? Do you? Wow? 981 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 7: No? 982 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 2: What? 983 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 7: No? 984 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 1: That's that. Look, there's a reason the coaches have to 985 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,399 Speaker 1: sometimes remind the refs that there's okay, I'm just goodd 986 00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:35,800 Speaker 1: So you were talking to Jordan Matthews. 987 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 2: I was talking to him about the diversity of the 988 00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 2: position that tight end requires, the diversity of skill set 989 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 2: that the tight end position requires because you have to 990 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 2: know everything in their passing game, You have to know 991 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 2: everything in their run game because you are involved one 992 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 2: of the time on every play. If you're a wide 993 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 2: receiver and you don't want to run block, you can. 994 00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 2: You can get away with that in the NFL. Now 995 00:45:57,760 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 2: you have to be really really good at the other 996 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 2: stuff to be able to be able to get away 997 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 2: with that, otherwise you will not last long on a 998 00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 2: professional football roster. But all different kind of body types, 999 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 2: all different kind of specialization tight end is we haven't 1000 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:11,239 Speaker 2: really seen. And I think that's why they try to 1001 00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:16,840 Speaker 2: put the tight end you thing on quarterback lifetime. Specialization 1002 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 2: has become a thing with the quarterback position, wide receiver 1003 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 2: as well. I think that tight end is one of 1004 00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:27,280 Speaker 2: these unique pieces that maybe you don't need an elite 1005 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 2: tight end to get to the super Bowl, but a 1006 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 2: tight end. And I don't think that Dallas Goddard is 1007 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:35,919 Speaker 2: the lead. I think George kill is just being kind 1008 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 2: there and mentioning him even though he is a good 1009 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 2: player at the position and is a Super Bowl champion 1010 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 2: with the Eagles and those things, and he does account 1011 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,760 Speaker 2: for a lot of what they do in both elements 1012 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 2: of their offense. I think it can help set you 1013 00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 2: over the top. I don't think it's quite outright a necessity. 1014 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 2: The Bengals famously in the Zach Taylor Brian Callahan, formerly 1015 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,799 Speaker 2: the current head coach the Titans. He was the OC 1016 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,399 Speaker 2: in Cincinnati before taking the job here in Nashville. Really 1017 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 2: the tight end utilization was not a big part of 1018 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:10,120 Speaker 2: their offense, but they got to a Super Bowl. They 1019 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:12,839 Speaker 2: have Jamar Chase, they have Joe Burrow, they have they 1020 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:14,960 Speaker 2: had a good defense at the time. That defense is 1021 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,759 Speaker 2: since cratered since the twenty twenty one I guess that 1022 00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 2: would have been Super Bowl run. So you can find 1023 00:47:20,160 --> 00:47:22,800 Speaker 2: examples of teams that get to the Super Bowl without 1024 00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 2: having elite tight end play, or that don't maximize their 1025 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:29,160 Speaker 2: tight end utilization within that offense. I just think it 1026 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 2: depends on what your what the rest of your skill 1027 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 2: group looks like. Like Vegas is weird, right, of course, 1028 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 2: brock Bowers is the best player, the best skilled player 1029 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 2: in Las Vegas right prior to Ashton Genty playing an 1030 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 2: NFL snap, we can agree that Brock Bowers is the 1031 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,240 Speaker 2: close third to an elite player that that Las Vegas 1032 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 2: offense has, and it figures to be better because they've 1033 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 2: got legitimate quarterback play now in Gino Smith and Chip 1034 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:54,880 Speaker 2: Kelly is somebody who has had success at the NFL 1035 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 2: level running an offense. Relax over there. We're not talking 1036 00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 2: about your no no parts, although we might be execute 1037 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 2: a successful offense. Is that words hard? Look all of that? 1038 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 1: You're right to me, there's just a there's a glaring 1039 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,319 Speaker 1: thing here and fans get worked up about these lists, 1040 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 1: like who's at the top. Okay, I watched the Raiders 1041 00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 1: team a few years ago when Josh Jacobs led the 1042 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 1: league in rushing and Max Crosby led the league in 1043 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: sacks or a second, I don't remember which, and Devanta 1044 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,279 Speaker 1: Adams had over one thousand yards receiving on a team 1045 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 1: that won six games. Right, Like, so I think this 1046 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,839 Speaker 1: is like Miles Garrett is arguably the best pass rusher 1047 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: in the NFL. The Cleveland Browns do nothing but loose, Like, 1048 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: there's a very simple answer here. If you want to 1049 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 1: win a lot of football games, and you just want 1050 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 1: to guarantee that you're going to win a lot of 1051 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:46,320 Speaker 1: football games. Maybe not a super Bowl, but you're always 1052 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:48,640 Speaker 1: going to be in position to win the super Bowl. 1053 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 3: Then you need to have one of the best offensive 1054 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 3: lines in the NFL. 1055 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 1: I will say that. I will say that, I'll plant 1056 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 1: that flag. You know, the Eagles have one of the 1057 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 1: best offensive lines in the NFL. The Lions have one 1058 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 1: of the best offensive line in the NFL. Like, if 1059 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,880 Speaker 1: you truly just everything else can go to You know what, 1060 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 1: if you have one of the best offensive lines in 1061 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 1: the NFL, you will still find a way to compete. 1062 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: If you don't, then you're gonna be asking your quarterback 1063 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 1: patri Mahomes to be a lifesaver. So I do think 1064 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 1: there's value in having If we were doing an offensive 1065 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 1: line ranking and you told me that this team had 1066 00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,360 Speaker 1: the best offensive line in the league, then yes, I 1067 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: think there's value to that. Every other position who cares, like, yeah, 1068 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson might be the best wide receiver in the 1069 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:30,880 Speaker 1: NFL this year. Okay, that's cool. Like, I don't believe 1070 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,799 Speaker 1: that having the best wide receiver in the NFL makes 1071 00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 1: you a surefire can't miss Super Bowl contender. Like you 1072 00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 1: can have the best corner in the NFL and your 1073 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 1: team still only wins four or five games. Like the 1074 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 1: NFL is just different than every other sport in the 1075 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 1: sense that having a really great player at one position 1076 00:49:47,960 --> 00:49:49,719 Speaker 1: kind of doesn't matter. Like you got to have a 1077 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 1: really good ross. You gotta have Like it's almost like 1078 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,080 Speaker 1: the grading on a curve when we were in school, right, 1079 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,400 Speaker 1: Like you can't have one person that's great and the 1080 00:49:57,440 --> 00:49:59,879 Speaker 1: rest of it be trash, and you can't have a bunch. 1081 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:02,279 Speaker 1: You can't have the opposite. You know, you can't have 1082 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 1: any situation. You've got to find the middle ground on 1083 00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:07,239 Speaker 1: all of this, and if you don't have that, then 1084 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:09,320 Speaker 1: your team's just gonna lose as much football games. 1085 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 7: It is. 1086 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,800 Speaker 2: I mean, quarterback we assign the most importance too, for 1087 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 2: obvious reasons. He's the player that has his hands on 1088 00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 2: the ball on every play that's not special teams related 1089 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 2: or defense related. They are going to impact your football 1090 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 2: team as much as any singular position on the field. 1091 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:32,240 Speaker 2: But as we talked about throughout the course of this segment, 1092 00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:35,800 Speaker 2: there's just so much variance in that sports specifically that 1093 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:38,839 Speaker 2: I don't think that people can speak as definitively as 1094 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,959 Speaker 2: Kittle is there now again, he assigns a higher level 1095 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 2: of importance to the tight end position because obviously, George 1096 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:49,239 Speaker 2: Kittle All Star tight end, somebody who's probably going to 1097 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 2: end up I mean, I don't think there's much disputing 1098 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,239 Speaker 2: that George Kittle will probably be an NFL Hall of 1099 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 2: Famer by the time his career is done, regardless of 1100 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 2: whether he ends up winning a Super Bowl or not. 1101 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:03,279 Speaker 2: But there is so there are so many different things 1102 00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 2: that can happen on a football field. In fact, I 1103 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 2: think it's the least controllable of any of the of 1104 00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 2: any of the sports outcomes that you can have, because 1105 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 2: not only is the ball shaped weird, but you have 1106 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,120 Speaker 2: so many different moving pieces and parts, and injury is 1107 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 2: a one hundred percent factor in any NFL football game. 1108 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:20,760 Speaker 2: You have a one hundred percent chance of getting injured, 1109 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:24,839 Speaker 2: which could completely derail your team's best chances at having 1110 00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 2: any kind of success that season, even if you put 1111 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,879 Speaker 2: together the best version of the roster. If the roster 1112 00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 2: can't stay healthy, it's more often the team that's dragging 1113 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 2: its leg across the finish line at the end of 1114 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 2: the year, not the team that started with the best 1115 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:37,480 Speaker 2: roster when we put these things together at the end 1116 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 2: of training camp in the first week of September. So 1117 00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:46,080 Speaker 2: I wonder, like, what is Vegas's ceiling specifically because we're 1118 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 2: talking about this because of the weekly or rather the 1119 00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:54,320 Speaker 2: annual poll for lack of a better term, that Jeremy 1120 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:58,440 Speaker 2: Faller at ESPN goes about doing with executives, with coaches 1121 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 2: and scouts, and he puts together positional ranking. So he 1122 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,279 Speaker 2: pulls a bunch of people in the NFL, they all 1123 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:06,239 Speaker 2: submit their votes and then they accumulate these votes to 1124 00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:09,040 Speaker 2: put together this list. And brock Bowers, as we mentioned, 1125 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 2: was the number one ranked player the most often out 1126 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:15,959 Speaker 2: of any other player at his position. The lowest ranking 1127 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 2: that brock Bauers got in this year's poll was seven. 1128 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:23,120 Speaker 2: Kittle is two there. But Kittle, I mean brock Bauers 1129 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 2: is not going to give the Las Vegas Raiders the 1130 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 2: best chance at usurping the Kansas City Chiefs, Right, That's 1131 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 2: not what's going to be the thing that undermines the 1132 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 2: dynasty and all of a sudden has Las Vegas winning 1133 00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:39,640 Speaker 2: the AFC West. Right, Yet we don't know what brock 1134 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 2: Bauers is going to be as an NFL pro like, 1135 00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:45,040 Speaker 2: we understand the potential, Whereas I think I look at 1136 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:46,960 Speaker 2: George Kittle and say, no, he could be a difference 1137 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:48,880 Speaker 2: maker in his division given what they have or what 1138 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:51,480 Speaker 2: they don't have on this year's roster as far as 1139 00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:55,280 Speaker 2: influencing the results. So I think it's very, very situationally specific. 1140 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,239 Speaker 1: I think having the best player at a position is 1141 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: like having great icing on a case, Like it's important 1142 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:02,880 Speaker 1: if you want to have incredible cake, but it's not 1143 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 1: like you're a thousand percent right. Brock Bowers last year, 1144 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 1: for point of reference, had an absolutely monster monster year. 1145 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 1: There's no two ways to take that. One and ninety 1146 00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:17,840 Speaker 1: four yards receiving one hundred and twelve catches with the 1147 00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:20,719 Speaker 1: worst quarterback room in the NFL. He did all of 1148 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 1: that almost single handedly last year. That's great. Is that 1149 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:25,600 Speaker 1: gonna help you win a Super Bowl? No, it makes 1150 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:27,160 Speaker 1: team better. You got to have good players to make 1151 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 1: team to win games. You're right that, you know you 1152 00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 1: look at somebody like Sam Laporta third on this list. Okay, 1153 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:35,160 Speaker 1: who cares like that? I guess my biggest thing is 1154 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,439 Speaker 1: fans get so worked up about where their favorite teams 1155 00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:39,840 Speaker 1: are represented on this Sam Laporta has a hell of 1156 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:43,000 Speaker 1: a lot better chance of helping his team win a 1157 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,640 Speaker 1: Super Bowl by being one of the best tight ends 1158 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 1: in the league. Like, as long as you have one 1159 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,799 Speaker 1: of those sorts of players, you're gonna be just fine. 1160 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 1: We'll keep breaking it down because there's a lot to 1161 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 1: what it means for team construction. Plus what should ownership 1162 00:53:57,719 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 1: construction look like in the NFL. One of the most 1163 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 1: amos players recently is not going to own an NFL team. 1164 00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: Is that good or bad? We'll break it down. He's 1165 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 1: Buck Rising. I'm Jason Fitz. We're hanging out with you 1166 00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio. He's Buck Rising. I'm Jason Fitz. 1167 00:54:14,360 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 1: It's Fox Sports Radio. I imagine that Buck Rising is 1168 00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:21,800 Speaker 1: house full of cats that like when he gets home tonight, 1169 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:24,360 Speaker 1: they'll put on little cat bibs and they'll await the 1170 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,480 Speaker 1: little cat food and then Buck will scoop the cat 1171 00:54:27,640 --> 00:54:29,839 Speaker 1: food out to each of them. And in my mind, 1172 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 1: they sit up on an elevated counter, because there's no 1173 00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,279 Speaker 1: way that these cats eat on the floor, and Buck 1174 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:36,760 Speaker 1: will give them the treatment that they so rightfully deserve. 1175 00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:39,520 Speaker 1: And it's probably a mixture of wet and dry food. 1176 00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 1: It's not as simple as any one thing. No, it 1177 00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 1: takes twenty minutes to feed Bucks cats. Tell me I'm wrong. 1178 00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 2: Cat bibs is crazy. I honestly wish that was true. 1179 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 2: Although you want to know what you got most right 1180 00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:02,000 Speaker 2: about that is they eat real like real food. You 1181 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:04,920 Speaker 2: know this. This has become a trend here recently. And 1182 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:07,080 Speaker 2: no free ads, but you see a lot of companies 1183 00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:10,319 Speaker 2: that are advertised advertising the pet owners about feed your 1184 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:13,120 Speaker 2: animals real food. They're not supposed to be just like you. 1185 00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 2: You're not supposed to eat a bunch of processed stuff. 1186 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 2: It's gonna make you feel bad and cause you a 1187 00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 2: bunch of health problems down the road. Same goes for pets. 1188 00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:21,480 Speaker 2: And you know, I mean some people take that more 1189 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:22,319 Speaker 2: seriously than others. 1190 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 1: Uh. 1191 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 2: The cat the cats tonight had mackerel in a little 1192 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:30,760 Speaker 2: bit of uh with a little bit of a pumpkin 1193 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 2: glaze and chunks of cheese in the mackerel pumpkin blazed food. 1194 00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:39,840 Speaker 2: I think they ate a better din out of than 1195 00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 2: I did. 1196 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,520 Speaker 1: Did you make this? Did you make the pumpkin glaze? 1197 00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:43,919 Speaker 1: On the map? 1198 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 2: It comes in a you can you can purchase on 1199 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,239 Speaker 2: you bought you buy it at the store, and and 1200 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 2: it I mean it looks I mean I could it's 1201 00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:55,480 Speaker 2: human quality food. I could probably have made myself a 1202 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:57,440 Speaker 2: plate and enjoyed it with the proper seasoning. 1203 00:55:58,080 --> 00:55:59,960 Speaker 1: I and that is that is elect I will say. 1204 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 1: The dogs always get like they get when I cook. 1205 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 1: They all just sit they sit there and they just 1206 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:08,960 Speaker 1: wait for little pieces. But it's always just vegetables right 1207 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,919 Speaker 1: like like so the amount of times that like green 1208 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:14,360 Speaker 1: animel loves any sort of a pepper, any sort of 1209 00:56:14,360 --> 00:56:16,400 Speaker 1: a pepper or watermelon. So yeah, there's a lot of 1210 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 1: I've got like fancy healthy and I don't I don't 1211 00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:22,960 Speaker 1: have a single dog treat in my house but the 1212 00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 1: dog the tree. Yeah, like I just have never been. 1213 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 1: I'm not a dog treat guy. But they get little 1214 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:29,919 Speaker 1: green peppers and they get a little like a little 1215 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 1: bit of a like when I make chicken, they'll get 1216 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 1: like maybe a little piece of the chicken, and they 1217 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 1: get a little watermelon and like you know, so they 1218 00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 1: get a little fruits and vegetables along the way. That's 1219 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:41,800 Speaker 1: so we're both a little bit boosy with our animal treatment. 1220 00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:45,759 Speaker 2: The latest that's probably so I think him talking about 1221 00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:47,799 Speaker 2: how healthy his dogs eat is a way for him 1222 00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 2: to get around how healthy he eat he eats and 1223 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:52,480 Speaker 2: avoid a fine. But I think that should still be 1224 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,040 Speaker 2: a finablefence. 1225 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 1: Because of the look you were trying to find me 1226 00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 1: out of my my mind here, I don't know what's happening. 1227 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,359 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to You're making it easy, you guys. 1228 00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:06,320 Speaker 7: Remember you On the COVID NFL draft, we had the 1229 00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,960 Speaker 7: image of Cliff Kingsbury sitting in his living home, big 1230 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,719 Speaker 7: empty house. That's what I picture your house as, Buck like, 1231 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 7: you're just surrounded by your cats making it is. 1232 00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:19,960 Speaker 2: I don't. I don't have as nice a pool as 1233 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 2: Cliff does, but same vipes, i'd say. I'd say that's 1234 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,080 Speaker 2: probably I'd go ahead and give myself. 1235 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:27,840 Speaker 6: A scaled down version. But that's just what I picture 1236 00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:29,840 Speaker 6: your life from what you do. 1237 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 2: We we we you know, we enjoy. We enjoy the 1238 00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:37,000 Speaker 2: finer things in life. Nothing wrong with it. Meanwhile, I 1239 00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 2: was I remember that draft very well because I remember 1240 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 2: seeing Cliff's incredible scenery of his home in Arizona at 1241 00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 2: the time when he was the head coach of the Cardinals. 1242 00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 2: During the COVID draft, and then I remember having to 1243 00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:51,160 Speaker 2: ask my Bible on a zoom call if his son 1244 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 2: was pooping in the background of his shot. If you 1245 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 2: guys remember that correctly. 1246 00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:59,080 Speaker 1: That's there's a different different lifestyles. Wait, does Buck Rising 1247 00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 1: have a pool like it might? 1248 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:00,920 Speaker 2: Like? 1249 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 1: Oh, okay, that makes more sense. Okay, that makes more sense. 1250 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 1: I just like the Welshley Arms signed better be up there. 1251 00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:12,440 Speaker 1: That's an SNL reference for I'm just I'm imagining that's 1252 00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:15,200 Speaker 1: where Buck Rising goes. Okay, I gotta get to Eli 1253 00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,600 Speaker 1: Manning here because I'm curious how you feel about this. 1254 00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:21,160 Speaker 1: Eli Manning has said no to an ownership stake in 1255 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 1: the New York Football Giants, and the reasoning being it's 1256 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,080 Speaker 1: too expensive. Now, it's amazing for an athlete to have 1257 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 1: to say it's too expensive, because it shows you, you know, 1258 00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 1: every time there's a strike and we sit here and 1259 00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:33,840 Speaker 1: say the players should hold out against the owners, remind 1260 00:58:33,920 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 1: you that Eli Manning has to look at and say, 1261 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,960 Speaker 1: I can't really afford to buy into the NFL. But 1262 00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 1: I do think that part of me likes this. That 1263 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 1: there's just it's so hard we assume that somebody that 1264 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:49,480 Speaker 1: has had tremendous success in the league is suddenly going 1265 00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:53,080 Speaker 1: to be tremendous in an ownership capacity. And I obviously 1266 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:55,680 Speaker 1: a lot of conversations happened about Brady with the Raiders 1267 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 1: over the course of the last few months, but even 1268 00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 1: go back to you know, John Elway and Elev Roles 1269 00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:03,200 Speaker 1: with the Broncos, and I just sometimes we see these 1270 00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:05,440 Speaker 1: legends and I think, Buck, we're just we assume that 1271 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 1: that legend goes into a new role and it makes 1272 00:59:07,280 --> 00:59:09,920 Speaker 1: them great at everything. But like you said earlier, just 1273 00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:12,400 Speaker 1: because somebody has been so good at something that they 1274 00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:14,960 Speaker 1: can own an NFL team doesn't necessarily mean they're going 1275 00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 1: to be a great NFL owner. And you know, Michael 1276 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 1: Jordan's a great, living, eating, breathing example of man. I 1277 00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:23,640 Speaker 1: don't really want the tainted legacy of bad ownership coming 1278 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 1: on to some players. 1279 00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:25,920 Speaker 3: I kind of like to keep a separation here. 1280 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 2: Oh my god, is there a better example of this 1281 00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 2: than Magic Johnson the Lakers. I mean that that is 1282 00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 2: as public an example of that and Magic, you know, 1283 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 2: Magic is an incredible human being who does a lot 1284 00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:39,960 Speaker 2: of great work and has a lot of high level 1285 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 2: business acumen in a variety of different things. But that 1286 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily equip him for all the different things that 1287 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:47,680 Speaker 2: he was asked to do when he was in an 1288 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 2: advisory role or an executive role with the Lakers. Did 1289 00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:53,560 Speaker 2: you see Eli's quote on this with CNBC? I guess 1290 00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:57,600 Speaker 2: CNBC sport to be specific. Basically, it's too expensive for me. 1291 00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 2: The Giants are valued for what it's worth. It's seven 1292 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,720 Speaker 2: point fi three billion dollars quote. These numbers are getting 1293 01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 2: very big. A one percent stake of something valued at 1294 01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:08,400 Speaker 2: ten billion dollars, it turns into a very big number. 1295 01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:10,160 Speaker 2: I love the Giants, and I think it's deserving of 1296 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 2: that valuation. There will be people that want to go 1297 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 2: for it, and I was kind of along for the ride. 1298 01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:20,600 Speaker 2: I one, do you want to spend that much money 1299 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 2: for a product that sucks? 1300 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:22,200 Speaker 7: Like? 1301 01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 2: I know that they're making money hand over fist in 1302 01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 2: the NFL, and that the valuations of these things are 1303 01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:29,840 Speaker 2: not going down, so it stands to be a reasonable 1304 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:33,120 Speaker 2: investment whether or not the product on the field is good. 1305 01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:37,320 Speaker 2: But I mean, it's it's not just Eli Manning that's 1306 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:40,680 Speaker 2: getting priced out. NFL ownership groups probably if they had 1307 01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:43,840 Speaker 2: to buy back their teams, if one of these mom 1308 01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:47,360 Speaker 2: and pop type situations. You are a Raiders fan, Mark Davis, 1309 01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:49,560 Speaker 2: Amy Adams trunk here in Nashville with the Tennessee Titans, 1310 01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:51,800 Speaker 2: even though she doesn't, I mean, she has a place here, 1311 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 2: but she lives primarily in Houston, where the organization was 1312 01:00:55,920 --> 01:01:01,280 Speaker 2: founded as the Houston Oilers. Local ownerships that were either 1313 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:04,120 Speaker 2: you know, in on the ground level or had it 1314 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 2: passed down through family ties. Private equity is coming into 1315 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 2: these things for a reason. The league is opening the 1316 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 2: door to private equity for a reason. These things are 1317 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:18,320 Speaker 2: too expensive for even the I hesitate to say your 1318 01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:23,280 Speaker 2: everyday average billionaire, but they are becoming too expensive for 1319 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 2: your everyday average billionaire.

Years and 1443 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,200 Speaker 1: they're going to do that because they have more revenue 1444 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,560 Speaker 1: streams with streaming companies and they just keep making more, 1445 01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:19,560 Speaker 1: money which means they're going to renegotiate all of their. 1446 01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:24,360 Speaker 1: Deals the internal expectation within the league from many people 1447 01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:27,280 Speaker 1: is that the salary cap at that point will jump 1448 01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:31,000 Speaker 1: well over five hundred million.

Have 1469 01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:22,479 Speaker 1: so you're going to run out of owners that have 1470 01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:25,880 Speaker 1: the available cash to suddenly put out billions of dollars 1471 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:27,320 Speaker 1: all of the time for guaranteed. 1472 01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:31,120 Speaker 2: Money so in a situation like, that and that's that's 1473 01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:33,519 Speaker 2: the first Time i've ever heard that kind of a. 1474 01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:37,240 Speaker 2: Figure But i'm not in the business of sticker shock 1475 01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:40,719 Speaker 2: anymore when it comes to comes to professional, sports BECAUSE 1476 01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:44,519 Speaker 2: i understand that these things are one of the most 1477 01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:48,719 Speaker 2: valuable commodities that a television network or a streaming service 1478 01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:53,640 Speaker 2: can have because of the guaranteed, audience guaranteed live audiences 1479 01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:56,280 Speaker 2: that come with it in the advertising dollars that are 1480 01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:58,719 Speaker 2: associated with. That SO i guess the question would, become 1481 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:04,600 Speaker 2: would they then pivot in THE nfl to capping a 1482 01:09:04,800 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 2: percentage of the cap on? Positions you know What i'm, Saying, 1483 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:13,760 Speaker 2: like if you have a quarterback that's coming up and 1484 01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:16,759 Speaker 2: you are not in the business of paying that, quarterback 1485 01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:20,280 Speaker 2: let's just say three hundred million, dollars even if it's 1486 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:25,280 Speaker 2: not a fully guaranteed. Contract would the response by the 1487 01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:29,920 Speaker 2: league and buy ownership to make sure that these contracts 1488 01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:33,759 Speaker 2: can't go crazy to specific to the most important positions 1489 01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:37,680 Speaker 2: where wide receivers are making thirty, five defensive tackles are 1490 01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 2: starting to make ballpark twenty five into the thirties at 1491 01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:44,040 Speaker 2: the very very height of the. Position, right we're talking 1492 01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 2: top one percent of the one percent of athletes that 1493 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:51,200 Speaker 2: earn at an elite. LEVEL i just think that they 1494 01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:56,120 Speaker 2: would have to then devise a way to cap the 1495 01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 2: percentage that you can spend on an individual position to 1496 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,479 Speaker 2: make sure that the money does not go absolutely. Crazy, 1497 01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:05,320 Speaker 2: NOW i think The union would obviously push back on 1498 01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:07,720 Speaker 2: that because of one position is more valuable than the, 1499 01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:12,559 Speaker 2: other and It's america's most popular, sport and they're MAKING 1500 01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:15,439 Speaker 2: x amount of dollars on the quarterback and the quarterback 1501 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:18,439 Speaker 2: of the, marquee the quarterbacks of the marquee thing that 1502 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:20,680 Speaker 2: people are coming to see more often than not than 1503 01:10:20,720 --> 01:10:22,719 Speaker 2: they should be able to make whatever the market says 1504 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:24,920 Speaker 2: that they make based on what the television dollars are 1505 01:10:24,960 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 2: associated with that, league with that, team and with that specific. 1506 01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:34,360 Speaker 2: Player BUT i hate to say THAT i understand why 1507 01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:37,640 Speaker 2: ownership would have to do something like.
