Speaker 3: Okay, do you.

31
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: Think that AI was used to do the scene where

32
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: they spit in each other's mouth in the locker room?

33
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: Do you think that was that was available back then?

34
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 4: I think that was a real scene. Bro, Damn yeah,

35
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 4: I think it was a real scene.

36
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: I sweart of got him. I was reading for that.

37
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm out and see you guys. Find somebody

38
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: else on the gas.

39
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 3: Hey man. You know.

40
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 4: It was the love of the game. And I had

41
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 4: never heard or seen of anything so stupid, just so stupid.

42
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 4: I had never heard or seen anything like that. I

43
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 4: was in the ninth grade. I was going into my

44
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 4: ninth grade freshman year of high school when that, when

45
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 4: that came came out, and I was just like you know,

46
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 4: I thought the whole movie was super cool, and so

47
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 4: that was one of those signature moments. I don't know why.

48
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 4: And the craziest thing is is when you're younger, you're

49
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 4: so influenced by things like we really was like trying

50
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 4: to do everything. Now, we never spit in each other's mouth.

51
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 4: But I did paint. I did paint a skull on

52
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 4: my face, and I did paint. We were you know,

53
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 4: they were the North Hills Indian So I did paint

54
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 4: an Indian Indian face.

55
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 3: That was pretty good too.

56
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 4: Only problem is the thing that they don't, you know,

57
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 4: make very clear to you, Jonas, is that that paint

58
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 4: runs when you're in a real game and it's not

59
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 4: a movie like when it's the real thing, that paint runs.

60
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 4: So by the third play, I was like, you know,

61
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 4: rubbing my eyes like profusely to get that, Like my

62
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 4: eyes was just getting irritated, is all get out from

63
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 4: the paint, you know. So that was short lived. Had

64
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 4: to wash the paint off of my face and then

65
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 4: we were good to go.

66
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, I remember a junior year going into the

67
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: senior We were doing Hell Week back then, and I

68
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: remember one of the seniors as we were breaking, because

69
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: back then it was the first three days we're just

70
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: conditioning shorts and T shirts. And then the third day

71
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: or the fourth day on Thursday is when you put

72
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: all the pads on you started hitting. And I remember

73
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: we're doing we're getting ready to break on Wednesday, knowing

74
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: that Thursday is going to be the hitting day for

75
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: the first time.

76
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 2: And I remember one of the seniors, guy was such

77
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:23,919
Speaker 2: a douche.

78
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: He just says, hey, man, little piece of advice for

79
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: all you juniors.

80
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 2: Better go home, watch the program later tonight. You show

81
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: up tomorrow, you're gonna.

82
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 3: Get fed up.

83
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 2: It's okay.

84
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: So I didn't watch the program the night before, so

85
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: I didn't watch that. I still remember to this day.

86
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,799
Speaker 1: So I remember I was like, what's he talking about?

87
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: So I didn't watch the program the night before, and

88
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: guess what showed up Thursday and I got fed up.

89
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: I got destroyed, absolutely destroyed. So maybe it's all they do.

90
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: They just like they were seniors they were we were juniors,

91
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: and it was they were just tee and off man.

92
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: They were not they were not kind. So you know,

93
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: it wasn't like I was gonna do anything. I was

106
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 4: Jonas Hell. Yeah, you know, it's it's crazy. I get

107
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 4: horrible anxiety. I have horrible social anxiety, and I was

108
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 4: scared to death standing up there.

109
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 3: But I thought I did pretty good. I pulled it

110
00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 3: off pretty good.

111
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 2: Damn you how did you get over it? How did

112
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 2: you get over it? Uh?

113
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 4: You know it's interesting my mom, I didn't speak very

114
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 4: well growing up, as some people may allude to when

115
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 4: they comment on how the show goes. But if you

116
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 4: could hear how I sounded when I first started speaking

117
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 4: to the uh, to the media. I always tell the

118
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 4: story my mother. My mother took a interview that I

119
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 4: did and we watched it, and she said, do you

120
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 4: like the way you sound?

121
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 3: And I said no, I don't I say, you know?

122
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 4: And I had so many crutch words. Uh, that was

123
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 4: most of my language was crutch words. And clearly I

124
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 4: had a way heavier Pittsburgh accent back then. I know

125
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 4: people hear it now and say he says words funny

126
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 4: and different. Well, it's just a dialect. I worked to

127
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,239
Speaker 4: get through it. But what happened was is my mom said,

128
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 4: every morning before I go to school, come meet me,

129
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 4: and while you're brushing your teeth and stuff like that,

130
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 4: instead of going to the other, you know, the restroom

131
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 4: that me and my brothers use, come to my room,

132
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 4: and when you're brushing your teeth, I'm gonna ask you questions.

133
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 3: You know.

134
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 4: So my mom used to make me look in the

135
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 4: mirror and she would ask me questions. And she would

136
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 4: always say, if you say or well, you know, or

137
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 4: any crutch words, practice stopping. Like every time she'd ask me,

138
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 4: she said how'd you feel about the game today, or

139
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 4: how do you feel about going into the game this week?

140
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 4: And anytime I would say a crutch word, I'd have

141
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:46,679
Speaker 4: to stop. And that process went on for like years.

142
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 4: My mom would ask me questions. I would look in

143
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 4: the mirror to see how I looked, and that was

144
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 4: how I learned to speak better. And so as I

145
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 4: learned to speak better, it made me more confident to

146
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 4: be able to you know, I grew up in the church,

147
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 4: so you understand that in the church. You know, my

148
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 4: father was a deacon, ended up becoming an ordained minister.

149
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 4: So he's a social anxiety dude too, but he would

150
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 4: be able to get up in front of the congregation

151
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 4: and deliver good sermons. And I asked him what worked

152
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 4: for him, and he basically just said, be yourself, you know,

153
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 4: find a way to be so authentically yourself that you

154
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 4: don't feel as though you know the things that you're

155
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 4: doing or the things that you are saying aren't hitting

156
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 4: home with the people. He's like, it's not about if

157
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 4: it's hitting home with the people, it's about how you

158
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 4: feel about the things that you're saying and not really

159
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 4: resonated with me. And that was how I started to

160
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 4: being you know, beginning to have the confidence to be

161
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 4: able to do radio or do television or mc an event,

162
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 4: even though it scares the death out of me. It

163
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 4: scares me to death, but it's still it's still fun

164
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 4: to take on the challenge of being able to do it,

165
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 4: even just talking to people on the street, you know,

166
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 4: going back home, going back to Pittsburgh. I didn't think

167
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 4: so many people would remember, you know, who I am.

168
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 4: I guess I got a distinct look to me, you know,

169
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 4: I got that big windshield wipe or forehead. So I

170
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 4: think people actually recognize, you know, maybe they won't remember

171
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 4: the name, so to speak.

172
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 3: At least this is in my mind.

173
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 4: But a lot of people recognize me, and I always

174
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 4: make it a point to have a conversation with anyone

175
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 4: who recognizes me. Like if you recognize me and you

176
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 4: want to have a conversation, I don't do the whole

177
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 4: you know, hey, good to meet you and keep moving

178
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 4: or you know, okay, thanks, all right, goodbye. You know,

179
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,719
Speaker 4: I want to have an experience, just like they want

180
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 4: to have an experience, because it's always a kick in

181
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 4: the head when somebody recognizes you. It's like I was

182
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 4: so good at something that people chose to acknowledge me

183
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 4: or commit me to memory. Where if they actually see

184
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 4: me out it's like, oh that's LeVar Arrington, which is

185
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,959
Speaker 4: pretty cool to me. So I'd be wanting to hear

186
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 4: what they have to say as well. More so than

187
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 4: what they want to hear me say to them, I'll

188
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 4: be wanting to hear it because I feel like it's

189
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 4: pretty cool when people become a fan of you or

190
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 4: actually thought so much of you that they remember who

191
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 4: you are for good things, not bad things. So that

192
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 4: was how I learned how to talk and speak much

193
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 4: better than what I did, and it gave me the

194
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 4: confidence my mommy. My mom gave me the confidence to

195
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 4: be able to stand up in front of people and talk,

196
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 4: and so I do pretty well.

197
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 3: That's awesome.

198
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: That's actually a good, good method when you get it

199
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 1: broken there, and every time you go and do a

200
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: crutch for it, just stop.

201
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 4: It's crazy because what you don't realize is using crutch

202
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 4: words takes the same amount of time that it does

203
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 4: to just stop and think about what you want to

204
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 4: say next.

205
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 3: It feels like an eternity right you say.

206
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 4: You know or like or these certain things, because you

207
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 4: feel as though the amount of time from your last

208
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 4: word to the next word you're going to say is

209
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 4: so long, But it's really not. Once you realize that,

210
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 4: it's not a whole lot of time that lapses, which,

211
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 4: by the way, if you're speaking and you're being interviewed.

212
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,319
Speaker 4: They want to hear what you have to say, so

213
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 4: they'll wait, you know, if you take a little bit

214
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 4: of time, they'll wait. I'd rather you say I answered,

215
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 4: I speak slowly versus say I speak fast and say

216
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 4: like you know, in so many different crutch words during

217
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 4: the time that I'm speaking. So it was it was

218
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 4: super effective. It did, it did. My mom did an

219
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 4: excellent job, and she was an educator. Three degree educator,

220
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 4: you know, degrees from Central State, degrees from Duquanne University,

221
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 4: very well educated and very very very skilled at teaching.

222
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 4: And she did a great job with teaching me how

223
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 4: to speak. Because if you would have hurt me in

224
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 4: the eighth from from third grade to eighth grade, ninth grade,

225
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 4: if you'd have hurt me speak, you'd have been like, dude,

226
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 4: I had as much Pittsburgh slang as you could possibly

227
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 4: have in terms of speaking.

228
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 1: So also, something your dad mentioned about the be yourself.

229
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: If you're yourself, you got nothing to worry about as

230
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,079
Speaker 1: far as you having stage fright or public speaking or

231
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: anything like that. It's the same thing as tying your shoes.

232
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 1: If it's natural, you don't remember doing it. If you've

233
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 1: done it, so much that just becomes part of the

234
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: day and it becomes natural. You don't remember, Oh you

235
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: tire shoes yesterday. Yeah, but I don't remember.

236
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 2: I just did it. Like once you learn it, it

237
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 2: becomes a natural action. And so when you're.

238
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 4: Talking about such an exhilarating experience when you first learned

239
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 4: out to tie you.

240
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 1: I got arrogant about it too. I went double knots.

241
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 1: I still go double knots just to show people. Okay,

242
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 1: it's the bunny air. Wrap it around my ass. I'm

243
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: doing it twice. I just learned this. Yeah, it's like.

244
00:12:59,200 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 3: Learning how to cook.

245
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 2: What are you gonna make? Grilled cheese? Grilled cheese? My ass?

246
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 3: Watch this, I'm doing double decker broach. Please.

247
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 2: Man, Once you learn how to do it, you just

248
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 2: let it fly.

249
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 1: But yeah, to his point, if it's natural, you don't

250
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 1: think about it, and you're not worried about what the

251
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: reaction is going to be. You just do it because

252
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 1: that's just your natural action at that best.

253
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 3: Right.

254
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 4: So that's right, big mic, big mic, big mic shots

255
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 4: out the big mic.

256
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: It is two pros and a cup of Joey or

257
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. By the way, if you're wondering he

258
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: guys gonna talk about the NBA Finals. No, there was none. Yeah,

259
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: they wanted to wait an extra day. Yeah, we gotta

260
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 1: wait another day. Yeah, and to get a to get

261
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: a game five in the NBA Finals.

262
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 4: So that was a tremendous miss. By the way, I

263
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 4: can't like in my mind, I'm looking at all the

264
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 4: people that are out looking at televisions and sitting around

265
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 4: and celebrating dance like that is the perfect time. That's

266
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 4: the perfect holiday to have a sports event. You're celebrating men.

267
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 4: They're gonna want to do what they want to do.

268
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 4: Most men want to watch sports, even if they're out

269
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 4: to eat. So, which about the way, I had a

270
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 4: burger from the Fieldhouse yesterday here at Top Trees and

271
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,839
Speaker 4: State College, PA. They say it's like the most legendary

272
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 4: signature type of burger you could get in and around

273
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 4: these parts. At least it did not disappoint. It did

274
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 4: And I mean, when I tell you it blows away

275
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 4: that sandwich we had in UH in Arizona.

276
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 2: Is it a smash burger?

277
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 3: It was not a smash burger.

278
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 4: But they take they take like they take chuck, they

279
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 4: take Surlin, they take Uh what else is it. There's

280
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 4: there's like three different types of meat that they take

281
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 4: and they they press them, they escape process them, they

282
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 4: press them and put them together in the morning hand

283
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 4: prepare bro bro. And then they had these these sweet

284
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 4: potato I don't know, it's the devil whatever it is

285
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 4: they put on.

286
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 1: So you're going back from going back from more, aren't you?

287
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: You're gonna go later?

288
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 5: Man?

289
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 4: Look here, I felt myself go up five pounds yesterday

290
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 4: and I knew.

291
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 3: I knew it was going to be a long week.

292
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 3: It's going to be a long week for me.

293
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: Well listen, it's gonna be a fun show here as

Speaker 3: Yes here, the NBA missed Jonas.

Speaker 4: Yeah, they should have been a game yesterday.

299
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: Like you had an opportunity. Man, to your point, everybody's

300
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 1: watching or everybody's hanging out. They're looking for something to

301
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: sink their teeth into, and instead they decide, now we.

302
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 4: Need to watch powerlifting. Yeah, we were sitting there watching

303

Speaker 4: powerlifting take place and got into it too.

304
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: Like da, you're looking for anything to watch?

00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 4: So yeah, I was married to her. How many kilograms?

316
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 1: about to be a fun ride for one team in

317
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: the NFL because things have sparked back up again.

318
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:32,880

325
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: it about twenty minutes from now. One organization in the

326
00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: world of sports might have made another huge mistake we'll

327
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 1: explain who that is again coming up here a little

328
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: over twenty minutes from now.

329
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 2: Right now, though, it is time for the tire Raq

330
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 2: play of.

331
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 6: The day to win the US Open at Oakmont, one

332
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 6: of the hardest, if not the hardest test in major

333
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 6: championship ball.

334
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 2: For the win, JJ Spond ball up and over the ridge.

335
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 2: It's on a very good line. This could go in.

336
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 2: JJ Spon makes sense. It's the biggest balling in his career.

337
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 2: JJ Spon conquers.

338
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 5: Oakbunt and as you're one hundred and twenty fifth US Open.

339
00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:40,159
Speaker 1: Champion PGA Tour Radio on the call, that is your

340
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: tire rack play of the day. For over forty years,

341
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: ti Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires

342
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,439
Speaker 1: for how, what and where they drive, shift fast and

343
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: freeback by free Road has a protection with convenient installation

344
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: options like mobile tire installation tire iraq dot Com the

345
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 1: way tire buying should be.

346
00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 3: Now.

347
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 1: For those of you that maybe aren't familiar with this,

348
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: I think some of the criticism levied by LeVar Arrington

349
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: toward the Bengals organization has just been rude, to be

350
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: honest with you.

351
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 3: But flat out route.

352
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: Flat out rude. But according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN,

353
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 1: the Bengals and Trey Hendrickson have resumed talks on a

354
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 1: contract extension. We got positive signs there, Bar, we got

355
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: positive signs there.

356
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 2: So here we are, middle of June, middle of June.

357
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: We know what he wants. We know what Trey Hendrickson

358
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: is looking for. He wants to be paid. He's been

359
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,199
Speaker 1: asking for it. He is not shown up to and

360
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: participate in any of the off season activities other than

361
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: to show up and have a press conference, basically ripping

362
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 1: the organization and their negotiations. He's subject to a little

363
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 1: over one hundred thousand dollars in fines. But if they're

364
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 1: able to get this worked out and figured out, maybe

365
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: it's a brand new era of Bengals football where a

366
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: disgruntled star gets paid and then we're off and running

367
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: and looking towards the season.

368
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 4: Towards the season, I think it's super important for them

369
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 4: to be able to really put these issues to rest.

370
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 4: Jonas for the simple fact that when you're looking at

371
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 4: the possibilities of what exists for the Cincinnati Bengals, it's

372
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 4: the slow starts that put them behind. So if you

373
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 4: get everybody in, you get your leader in and Hendrickson,

374
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 4: you get your rookie sign and get over this whole.

375
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 4: Whatever the discrepancies on the guarantees, you know, canceled guarantees, whatever,

376
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 4: void of guaranteetees, whatever it is, you get through those things.

377
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 4: You get your two defensive ends in, you shore up

378
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 4: that defensive front, and you prepare yourself for the year

379
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:54,920
Speaker 4: to come.

380
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 3: You got a healthy Joe.

381
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 4: Burrow, you got too happy, uh, too happy receiver that

382
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 4: just got their money and chasing Boyd And so to me,

383
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 4: I really believe the stars are aligning for Cincinnati to

384
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 4: have a productive, really really good year. But you got

385
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 4: to stop playing around with issues like this, especially with

386
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,880
Speaker 4: players like Hendrickson. Now, I will say, you think about it,

387
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 4: he does have more on his contract. He is under contract,

388
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 4: so there's a level of Hendrickson has to be reasonable

389
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 4: as well and what it is that he's doing in

390
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 4: his approach to everything that's taking place. But if they

391
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,359
Speaker 4: can figure that out and they can get everything short

392
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:51,119
Speaker 4: up and just focusing in on football, then Jonas, it

393
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 4: looks like, you know, you take a look at the

394
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 4: Cleveland Browns. I don't know what's going to happen with

395
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:01,719
Speaker 4: the Cleveland Browns. It could be a show of epic

396
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,479
Speaker 4: proportions for the Browns this year. I don't know, they

397
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 4: could be really good this year. I just don't think

398
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 4: anybody knows what the Browns are going to be. But

399
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 4: it's the question mark begs to say, it's an opportunity.

400
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 4: You look at the Pittsburgh Steelers. I feel the same

401
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 4: exact way the question marks actually say there's an opportunity.

402
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 4: You look at the Baltimore Ravens. That is the only

403
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 4: team that you sit there. And if I'm the Cincinnati

404
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 4: Bengals and I say, win against the other two teams,

405
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 4: and we got to figure out how do we get

406
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 4: it done against the Baltimore Ravens.

407
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 3: It's going to be a two.

408
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 4: Horse race in my estimation, and that's.

409
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 3: Who they got to be focused in on.

410
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 4: So it's a golden opportunity for them to get either

411
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 4: a wild card spot or actually even compete for the

412
00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 4: Division and the AFC North. Because I don't believe I'm

413
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,439
Speaker 4: if I'm measuring it in a wig in it based

414
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 4: off of the question marks at the position, both both

415
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 4: quarterback positions in Cleveland and in Pittsburgh are in question,

416
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 4: and that's the position you don't want to have in

417
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 4: question going into a season. So if I'm Cincinnati, make

418
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 4: everything right, get back to just focusing in on football

419
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 4: and get ready for the season.

420
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers reiterated this. I want to say a couple

421
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: of years ago, the last offseason or the year before,

422
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 1: but his point was every year, there's about eight to

423
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 1: twelve teams who are legitimate Super Bowl contenders that you

424
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,280
Speaker 1: look at and go, oh, I could see them winning

425
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl, And there's probably about eight. I would

426
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,479
Speaker 1: put it on the lower portion of his estimate as

427
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 1: far as teams that you look at and go all right, tho,

428
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 1: I could actually see them win a Super Bowl. I

429
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: put Cincinnati on that list. And part of the reason

430
00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: I put Cincinnati on that list is because they do

431
00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: have a franchise quarterback, and they have a franchise quarterback

432
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,719
Speaker 1: who's won big games in the postseason. We've seen it,

433
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,919
Speaker 1: We've seen it happen before. So if you're the Bengals

434
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 1: and you know you're one of those teams on the

435
00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 1: short list, I'm not screwing around, as you laid it

436
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:22,879
Speaker 1: out with altering the window altering the opportunity for the

437
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 1: window to shut alter.

438
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:25,719
Speaker 2: No, this is my chance.

439
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: I've got a real opportunity here to go and win

440
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl.

441
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 2: If this was somebody who was.

442
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: Looking for a new contract and you know, maybe there

443
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 1: were some questions or he was coming off you know,

444
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: injuries or a down year, I could totally get that.

445
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson led the league in sacks, He's done it

446
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,719
Speaker 1: multiple years in a row to be able to produce

447
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: at a high level. He's outplayed his contract by a mile.

448
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: This should be something that they need to get done

449
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 1: and get figured out, because, as you said, when you

450
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 1: start playing around with this, now you're playing around with

451
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: a real opportunity to chase the title. If you are

452
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 1: one of those eight to twelve teams and they are

453
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 1: that are legitimate Super Bowl contenders.

454
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 2: And I just look at it and I.

455
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: Go if I'm the organization and I have a chance

456
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 1: here to do something we've never done in the history

457
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: of the organization. That takes care of a lot of

458
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,639
Speaker 1: problems on the back end. But you've got to invent

459
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,719
Speaker 1: and you've got to invest on the front end in

460
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: order to make that happen. Figure this out, get it

461
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,919
Speaker 1: done and stop jacking around with an opportunity to go

462
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: chase the title and really actually win a super Bowl

463
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 1: this time and not come up short like you have

464
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 1: in years past.

465
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 4: I totally agree, and I think that it ultimately comes

466
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 4: down to trusting what it is that the plan is.

467
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 4: And if the plan is indeed to try to win

468
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 4: a Super Bowl, which would you would assume? The bottom

469
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 4: line is number one on the list and winning a

470
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 4: Super Bowl has to be high in the top five

471
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 4: of things you want to achieve and accomplish as an

472
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,720
Speaker 4: organization in the National Football League. And and so just

473
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 4: assuming that, knowing that rising tides, you know, they raise

474
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 4: all ships, why would you not want to win a

475
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 4: Super Bowl? That makes your team more more investible, more valuable.

476
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 4: It makes the players that are on the team more investible,

477
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 4: more more desirable, and more valuable. It just it's it's

478
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 4: good for business, it's good for everything. If you have

479
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 4: a successful team and they've shown they can be successful,

480
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 4: they do not have questions at the quarterbacks position. Only

481
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 4: question would be can Joe Burrow stay healthy? Can he

482
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 4: stay healthy through the mix of the entire season not

483
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 4: have any major setbacks physically in the in the course

484
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 4: of the season, and if Joe Burrow stays healthy with

485
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 4: the receiving corps that he has, you're going to have

486
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 4: a lot of offense. The biggest question mark outside of

487
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 4: Joe Burrow's arm, which you know obviously that is the

488
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 4: biggest key, But you gotta have a defense. You know,

489
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,120
Speaker 4: you gotta have a defense. You got to be able

490
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:18,399
Speaker 4: to stop other offenses. And that's going to be a

491
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,919
Speaker 4: question mark for the Cincinnati Bengals. If they were to

492
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 4: not have as productive a year as some may be

493
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 4: prognosticating or assuming the type of year they may have,

494
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,359
Speaker 4: it's most likely going to be because they don't have

495
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 4: a defense that is sturdy enough to get through the

496
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:37,160
Speaker 4: AFC North.

497
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: And also, i mean, let's just call what it is.

498
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: They've missed the playoffs last two years. If you're Zach Taylor,

499
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: how many more opportunities are you going to get? I mean,

500
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 1: you missed the playoffs three years in a row, and

501
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow's your starting quarterback, there's going to be real

502
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 1: discussions to be had about whether or not Zach Taylor's

503
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 1: the guy for the job. So he's feeling the heat.

504
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people there that are feeling the

505
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: heat because the clock ticking. And we broke this down

506
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 1: when it was happening because last offseason and going all

507
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: throughout the year, and we were having discussions about it.

508
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 1: It's like, hey man, they've got Jamar Chase, they've got

509
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: T Higgins, and they've got Trey Hendrickson, and it's like,

510
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:18,919
Speaker 1: all right, well if you have to pay two of

511
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 1: the three. And I think a lot of people felt like,

512
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 1: all right, well, you get Jamar Chase done obviously, you

513
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: get Trey Hendrickson done obviously, and if you can make

514
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 1: it work with T Higgins, if you can make it

515
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:34,479
Speaker 1: work with T Higgins, yes, maybe you go in that direction.

516
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 2: Instead. They got both the wide.

517
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: Receivers taken care of and the star defensive players looking

518
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 1: around going what about me?

519
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 2: And they're like, eh, yeah, I don't know.

520
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: It's just like, what like the way that they've handled

521
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 1: this and the way that they've operated is just a

522
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: little strange to me. And I don't know how many

523
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: organizations would have would have decided on paying T Higgins

524
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,679
Speaker 1: and getting that taken care of instead of going the

525
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 1: direction should have Trey Hendrickson.

526
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 3: It's a little strange. Yeah, I said Boyd.

527
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 4: I don't know why I didn't say, Higgins, that's that's

528
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 4: a slip.

529
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 3: I just met Tyler.

530
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:15,160
Speaker 4: Boyd by the way, anyway, Yeah, uh, you know, it's

531
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 4: it's a It's a very valid point. But I will say,

532
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 4: you shored up your offense, and there should be no

533
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,800
Speaker 4: excuses in terms of the product you receive on the

534
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 4: offensive side of the ball.

535
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 3: Now, I would assume.

536
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 4: It's within their strategy and they've tried to maybe rework

537
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 4: it or figure it out how to try to get

538
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 4: hendricks into a place of where he's comfortable and happy

539
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 4: with a contract, but they're comfortable and happy with the

540
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,400
Speaker 4: contract as well. I would assume that's what they're trying

541
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 4: to do right now. I don't believe this is posturing

542
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 4: of any any kind. I think they It would be

543
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 4: ridiculous to think that they don't want Hendrickson back, considering that,

544
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 4: as you mentioned, his output was amazing, top of the league,

545
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 4: and you still didn't have a very good defense. So

546
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 4: you have to hope that the additions that you've made

547
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 4: this offseason are going to go a very long way

548
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 4: in terms of the success of your defense. It has

549
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 4: to be much better than what it was last season.

550
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 4: So I don't think I don't have a problem with

551
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 4: them getting everybody done on offense. And if Hendrickson wants

552
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 4: to have a problem based upon them suring up their offense,

553
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 4: that's something he's got to work on personally. That's a

554
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 4: personal decision for him. He's got to put himself in

555
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 4: the best position to be signable. And the Cincinnati Bengals

556
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 4: have got to take into consideration that this man has

557
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 4: been a very productive player. And this is a totally

558
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 4: discriminate league is all about discrimination, and the discrimination, no,

559
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 4: it really is.

560
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 3: Listen.

561
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 4: I learned that a long time ago. Somebody, a coach,

562
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 4: told me that this is pure discrimination. They discriminate on

563
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 4: how you look, how you're built, what your body fat is,

564
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 4: how fast you run, how high you can jump, how

565
00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 4: you handle blockers, how you catch the ball, how you

566
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:27,480
Speaker 4: throw the ball, your finger size, your finger length. Yeah,

567
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 4: all of that, right. So it's a discriminatory business. And

568
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 4: the one the biggest thing that they discriminate on is production.

569
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 3: The way you're treated and the way.

570
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 4: Things are handled is based off of how productive you are.

571
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 4: It's a production business, and Hendrickson has been productive and

572
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 4: so and knowing that he's been as productive as he's been.

573
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 4: They got to be into they got to be aware

574
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 4: of the fact that you got to compensate production because

575
00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 4: that's what this league is based upon.

576
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 1: And he can't show up right like, he can't cave

577
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 1: at this point with how however, with how hard he's

578
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: come at the organization in what he's asking for and

579
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: what he's demanding, even though he does have that one

580
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: year under contract, he can't cave at this point. He's

581
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 1: got to be locked in, all in on getting a

582
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: new deal or getting traded elsewhere.

583
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 2: Like that's got to happen, Like it's gotta happen.

584
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 4: Well, I would say again, while he outperformed his contract,

585
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 4: he signed the contract, and there's always that caveat. I

586
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 4: know there will always be debates and discussions. Well, he

587
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 4: outplayed his contract, and look at what this guy's getting

588
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 4: paid over here. Look at what this guy's getting paid

589
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 4: over here. You out played your contract, but it is

590
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 4: still indeed a contract. So I don't if if you

591
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,959
Speaker 4: want to call it caving in, you know, I don't know.

592
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 4: I don't know that you call it caving in if

593
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 4: he comes back and he plays, just for the simple

594
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 4: fact that it's his contract. Now he could say he

595
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 4: could take it as far as he wants to take it.

596
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,000
Speaker 4: But do you want to be a sit out? Do

597
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 4: you want to lose money? You know, if they can't

598
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 4: trade you and you're not going to come back, then

599
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 4: now they have the right to find you. And now

600
00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 4: not only are you not making the money you be

601
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 4: making if you had gotten a new contract, but you're

602
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 4: losing money.

603
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 3: So I don't know.

604
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 4: I don't think the right answer is to stay away

605
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 4: if they don't do the contract. I think for what

606
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 4: it is worth, you got to suck it up and

607
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 4: you got to go out there and you got to

608
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 4: play that one year. And just know that at the

609
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 4: end of this one year, this last year of the contract,

610
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 4: I'm preparing to go play for another team.

611
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: Unless they franchise. Unless they franchise, which you know, unless

612
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: they franchise, there could always be that too. It is

642
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:15,480

Speaker 5: The guys are here to bring you in case you

00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 2: And for that we turn it over to our executive

646
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 2: producer Lee.

647
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:24,439
Speaker 3: Lapp.

648
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,320
Speaker 6: Oh good Monday morning, everybody.

649
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 2: Good morning Jonas, Good morning LeVar. Guys.

650
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 6: In case you missed it, it finally happened. The Red

651
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 6: Sox made a blockbuster trade, trading away their designated hitter,

652
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 6: Rafael Devers. Of course, he was lots of controversy this

653
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 6: year when they asked him to move from third base

654
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 6: to first base, said now he's a designated hitter. Now

655
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,800
Speaker 6: they've moved him to San Francisco where he'll likely be

656
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 6: a designated hitter again.

657
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 1: This whole story is hilarious. Yes, the Red Sox had

658
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: this guy playing third base. They go out, they sign

659
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,760
Speaker 1: Alex Bregman. They don't tell him they're signing Alex Bregman,

660
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: who's a third baseman. Then after they signed Bregman to

661
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:09,399
Speaker 1: play third base, they tell their previous third baseman, Rafael Devers, hey,

662
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:13,800
Speaker 1: so you mind playing DH He gets pissed, finally agrees

663
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 1: to it. Then their first baseman goes down with an injury.

664
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 1: They come to Rafael Devers again and say, hey, would

665
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 1: you mind playing first base? He says, nope, maybe our

666
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: front office should do their job. They're like, okay, I

667
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: guess we'll just keep him at DH, and then they

668
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: end up trading him away and they just gave him

669
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: like a ten year contract in twenty twenty three. He's

670
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,879
Speaker 1: a great player, three time All Star, and now they've

671
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: got to move on from him because they committed to

672
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 1: Alex Bregman without sorting through what the potential fallout could

673
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: be if they made the move. And so now once again,

674
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: just like they did Mookie Betts, they traded away a guy,

675
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:58,800
Speaker 1: a superstar potentially in his prime to the NL West

676
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 1: again job by the Boston Red Sox and the people

677
00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: there are there, you go, way to go, socks.

678
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 3: But why wouldn't he want to play first base?

679
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 4: Because it's like that the easiest, that's the easiest position

680
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 4: to play.

681
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 3: He's already got his money, right.

682
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, he already got his money, but he was

683
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 1: pissed that they wanted to switch positions before, So like, hey,

684
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: could you now go to DH and then you'll just

685
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 1: hit we'll take you away from third base. He's like,

686
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: all right, fine, but I'm not happy about it. And

687
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: then they're like, hey, would you mind going to first

688
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: base too?

689
00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 3: Say?

690
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 1: Whoa hold on a second, you You guys should have

691
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: thought this whole thing through. So this was sort of

692
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: his his pushback against the organization for making moves, not

693
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: telling him about it, and then asking him to quote

694
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,879
Speaker 1: unquote cover their ass because they are a guy short

695
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:45,399
Speaker 1: at first pace.

696
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 4: But and I understand, I understand that, But isn't there

697
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 4: something to be said about the idea of your.

698
00:36:57,040 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 3: Getting paid handsomely? Yeah? You a job? Yeah don't you?

699
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:04,479
Speaker 3: I mean, if they're paying him for.

700
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 4: Ten years, and I'm certain it's a whole lot of

701
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 4: money because it's baseball and it's guaranteed, why wouldn't you

702
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 4: just adjust adapt Like why to beef? Why to drama?

703
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 4: That sounds like to me he didn't want to be there, Yes,

704
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 4: what it sounds like?

705
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like the relationship at that point was probably fractured.

706
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 1: The owners tried to talk with him and have a

707
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 1: discussion about it. After he made some comments. They met

708
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 1: with him and then they realized pretty quick, Okay, this

709
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 1: ain't happening. So now he gets traded to the Giants.

710
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: The Giants needed a bat. They've got great pitching there.

711
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 1: They're competing with the Dodgers and the Padres in that division,

712
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:47,879
Speaker 1: and so now they land their dh that they're looking for.

713
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:49,760
Speaker 1: So they've just improved their offense.

714
00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 3: But it's just.

715
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: It's superstar guaranteed money behavior and the fact that it's

716
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: the same organization who moved on from Mookie Bets when

717
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 1: they did. People in Boston are looking around Cohen, come on, man, like,

718
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 1: what are we doing. It's already bad enough that Brad

719
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: Marshan is in the Stanley Cup and might win another

720
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: Stanley Cup final with the way that he's playing, and

721
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 1: he's a former Boston Bruin. The Celtics were eliminated, it's

722
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 1: a difficult time for Boston sports really.

723
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 3: Trump.

724
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, but they they had Big Poppy and all those

725
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,919
Speaker 4: guys and Manny you know, and all those guys. I mean,

726
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 4: you had a hey day and you had Tom Brady

727
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 4: and the Patriots they had a hey Day, and you

728
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:41,080
Speaker 4: had KG and then you had a championship last year

729
00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 4: in basketball for the Celtics.

730
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 3: So they had their their moment.

731
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 4: I mean, you can't have it all, not all the time, Boston,

732
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 4: Like geez, relax, not all the time.

733
00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 3: Let somebody else in the part of the.

734
00:38:56,120 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 1: States winle what else we got in case you missed.

735
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,720
Speaker 6: After five games on the bench with a left quad injury,

736
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 6: Kaitlyn Clark returned to her team, putting up thirty two

737
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 6: points to hand the Liberty their first loss of the season.

738
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 1: Angel injury control. Angel Rees had a triple double. And like,

739
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,280
Speaker 1: you're going to bury the lead with Kaitlyn Clark.

740
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, man, it's just the way.

741
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,240
Speaker 3: What are you erase button? R hit that button?

742
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 1: Yeah?

743
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 6: Racist there it is shame shoot or shoot?

744
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,279
Speaker 2: So Kitlyn Clark's back.

745
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 3: Somebody got to get cancer.

746
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 2: Might shame shame shame.

747
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 1: By the way, how quick, how quick is the w

748
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: NBA gonna screw this up? They've seen a boost in

749
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: the ratings.

750
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 4: They've already they have already screwed it up. Somebody should

751
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,719
Speaker 4: have sat them to down and say have a rivalry.

752
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,839
Speaker 4: But y'all gotta be very very careful in how y'all

753
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 4: do this rivalry thing? Man and and Angel like stay

754
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 4: off of the social media, like please just limit your

755
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 4: social media for now, Like, don't play this victim role.

756
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 4: It's sad because a lot of people are attacking her,

757
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 4: But at the same time, you don't have to continue

758
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 4: to perpetuate at which things you do either. So somebody

759
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 4: needs to sit down and talk to them because basically,

760
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 4: especially Caitlyn Clark, but Angel Rees and Caitlyn Clark rivalry

761
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,400
Speaker 4: so to speak. Air quotes is really something that they

762
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 4: can capitalize off of and they need not mess it up.

763
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:37,439
Speaker 3: And it seems like it's going bad.

764
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, but why would you want to make

765
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 2: more money for the league?

766
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 3: You know who cares about it? I mean, why not

767
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 3: you know
