1
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: What is going on, my people, how we're doing um

2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 1: John Middle got this three and out podcast. Welcome back again.

3
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,480

Speaker 1: Nice to eat meet you. As they say on the

Speaker 1: internet business streets, you know when you when you do

6
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: business someone they're like, nice to meet you. Happens a

7
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: lot in the podcasting world because you do a lot

8
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 1: of advertising deals. You never even meet the people, you

9
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 1: just meet them. It's bizarre world we're living in, but

10
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,319
Speaker 1: it is what it is. Uh, got some stuff going on,

11
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: some thoughts on you know, Phil Mickelson had a pretty

12
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: historic weekend. I think there are some parallels some things

13
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: happening in football. There was a long article on ESPN

14
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: dot com about the transfer portal and just you know,

15
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: a bunch of coaches complaining about how college football is

16
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: becoming the wild wild West. It's some thoughts there. There's

17
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: been some rumors about Matt Campbell, the Iowa State coach,

18
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: and did he turn down basically sixty seventy million dollars

19
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: from the Lions. Just kind of why college coaches in general,

20
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: it's never gonna be quite the same with them making

21
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:20,319
Speaker 1: the jump. And then Julio Jones, Aaron Rodgers in Hawaii.

22
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: We'll have a lot of takes, a lot of thoughts.

23
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: Middlecoff mail Bag at John Middlecoff is the Instagram slide

24
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: up in there. I'm probably gonna push this off until

25
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: Friday show. I'm gonna go, uh, taking off this weekend

26

00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: the show. Okay. This weekend there was a historic moment.

37
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,399
Speaker 1: Phil Mickelson and almost fifty one years of age won

38
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: the PGA Championship. It was it was awesome, you know,

39
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: if you're a golf fan, if you're just sports fan,

40
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 1: it was a historic moment and it got me thinking

41
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: whenever there's a major moment I try to think, like,

42
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: how could I relate this the football to the show,

43
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: And there were two things that really jumped out to me.

44
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: And listen, if you go back and you just google

45
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: Phil Mickelson in like the two thousand's and quote unquote

46
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: his prime, he was pretty fat. He looks way different.

47
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: Now he looks like he's in the best shape of

48
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: his life. You have to go back to like the

49
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: nineties when he was just skinny. I've stood next to

50
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: Phild He's like six two and a half. He's tall.

51
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: But you know, in the mid two thousands and probably

52
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: even right until about two thousand ten, he got pretty big.

53
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: He looked like a you know, a former, like a

54
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: baseball play are that just puts on a bunch of weight.

55
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: He didn't look good when you go back and look

56
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: at the pictures when we were living and I didn't

57
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 1: really notice. But now when you see his body, it

58
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: looks dramatically different. And he's obviously one of the greatest

59
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: players ever. So golf, unlike a lot of sports, you

60
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: can do things at fifty that you can't do another sports. Clearly,

61
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: that's still he shattered a record for the oldest guy

62
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: to ever win a major and to me, two things

63
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: this weekend jumped out to me in the tournament that

64
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: I think have some relation to the NFL and just

65
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: pro sports in general. One, I think age we have

66
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: to look at age completely different. And obviously Brady is

67
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: somewhat at an outlier still being an all pro level guy,

68
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: super Bowl champion and basically his mid forties, Like, I

69
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: don't necessarily expect that to happen. But one thing is

70
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: clear with health and wellness and training, and I can

71
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: speak for myself as someone whose weight fluctuates, I can

72
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: go anywhere from like two oh five to one. And

73
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: it's basically I have no problem working out. I've worked

74
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: out for twenty five years. Maybe not that actually didn't

75
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: really work out in high school. When I got to

76
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: college and stop playing sports, I'm like, I need to

77
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: work out, and it's become a routine, and I think

78
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: it actually helps that. You know, I get pretty high

79
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: stress because some you know, uh, it just it helps

80
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 1: me relax. It helps me to balance a little bit.

81
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: I don't do it for big muscles or anything, but

82
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: I I know the benefits of when I do it.

83
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: I like to get a sweat every day. But you

84
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: hear when you're younger, like, you know, the biggest thing

85
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 1: with working out is actually diet is more important than

86
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: you're working out. And when you're young, you're like, I

87
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: can eat anything, and most of us speak for guys.

88
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: I was a pretty dirty eater, and I still have

89
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 1: stretches where I can be. But in two thousand one,

90
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: I know what I'm getting into. I know what's healthy

91
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 1: and what's not. Like my parents generation when they had

92
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: lunch burgers and milkshakes. How you see some of these

93
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 1: famous pictures from like the seventies in the NFL all

94
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: Len Dawson smoking a cigarette with a Coca Cola bottle

95
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: next to him. Some of the famous lines of Kenny

96
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: the Snake Stabler saying I read the playbox by the

97
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 1: light of the jew box, or I read my playbook

98
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: by the light of the jewbox. He wasn't kidding. Now,

99
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: obviously people still go out and people still have a

100
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: good time. But health and wellness led by Tom Brady

101
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: Phil Mickelson has been a guy leading this wellness for

102
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: coffee and has completely transcended his body in a sport

103
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 1: where really Tiger Woods was really way ahead of the

104
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: curve and working out and we're not talking anymore. Like

105
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: when I was a kid in like the early nineties,

106
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 1: when you heard training camp or spring training, most guys

107
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: went I showed up to get into shape. I could

108
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: show up fat and work myself into shape. That no

109
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,280
Speaker 1: longer happens, and guys now spend so much money on

110
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 1: personal chefs, on personal trainers. But I think the food,

111
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: the food is key. The other thing is listen. I

112
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: I've smoked a few cigarettes in my day, never really

113
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: my thing. That was something I was watching. Uh it's

114
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: called Rush. I think it was on Netflix. It was

115
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 1: about the F one. It's a it's a good movie

116
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: that Liam's Hensworth is in it. It's about in the

117
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,119
Speaker 1: seventies F one. They had this one guy named Nicki

118
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: Lauda who eventually became like a famous dude in F

119
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: one as like I think a boss UF one Diehards

120
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: I'm probably Butcher in this. But he had a moment

121
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: where his car burned and he burned himself. Liam Hendricks

122
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: character I think his name is James Hunt, Uh, you know,

123
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: was also the big racer. He's like the Lewis Hamilton's

124
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: of the time. Maybe loud it was, I mean they

125
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 1: were both elite drivers and the number one sponsor back

126
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: then was Marborough. Like that was Marborough when I was

127
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: growing up. Like everyone had in their car, right, cigarette lighters, Uh,

128
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: places to put your ashtrays? Do do cars even have

129
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: ashtrays anymore? So? Now guys he said, he eat burns

130
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: and shakes and smoking cigarettes. Which it wasn't that long

131
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: ago that this happened thirty forty years like that that

132
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: these were people's diets. Hell. When I got hired in

133
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: with the Eagles, we had fast food Friday. Now it

134
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: wasn't like McDonald's and Taco Bell, but it was like sushi, burgers,

135
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: fried chicken like it was just kind of got your

136
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: grob on. And I remember talking to Coachreet a couple

137
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: of years ago, He's like, yeah, we had. We don't

138
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 1: do that in Kansas City because of the premium that's

139
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: put on health. And I think, guys, we had a

140
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: moment right in the late nineties early two thousands when

141
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: steroids and people push the envelope on illegal stuff. I

142
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: think now, guys, whether it shakes, whether whatever they're putting

143
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: in their body, they go above and beyond to not

144
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: only research, but do it for health benefits. It's why

145
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: when you see some of these pictures of like dudes

146
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: from the fifties at that are my age, like thirty six,

147
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: and guys that are thirty six, now we look a

148
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: lot younger. Can you imagine how much younger guys are

149
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: gonna look in thirty years at thirty five then they do.

150
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: Now we just progress with health and training an exercise

151
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: and actually not over exercising, using rest to your benefits.

152
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: Sleep is something we talk about all the time now

153
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: and when you look at the bradies, but it's not

154
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: just him, like Aaron Rodgers just won an m v

155
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: P at thirty seven years old, doesn't look like he's

156
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: slowing down at all. Some of these guys right when,

157
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: like Philip Rivers could have kept playing. He just retired,

158
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: but he could have played Jill he was forty. Drew

159
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: Brees just played due he was forty. But I'm not

160
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 1: even talking just quarterbacks. It's clearly that's one position that

161
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna be able to play a lot longer. I'm

162
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: gonna talk about position players, offensive lineman guys. Obviously, you

163
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: can have freak injuries that are out of your control,

164
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 1: but if you factor in health, you're gonna be able

165
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: to play a lot longer. Lebron James famously like spends

166
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: a couple of million dollars a year on trainers, chefs,

167
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 1: his just his body, and look at him. He's still

168
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: going pretty strong. Eighteen years in that. That would never

169
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: have happened in the nineties. We just didn't have the information,

170
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: and even if we did have the information, they weren't

171
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: powerful enough and people weren't listening. Well, now there is

172
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: no excuse. There is not a human being, whether you're

173
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 1: around pro sports or whether you're just around normal life,

174
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: that doesn't have a pretty good idea, Like, you know,

175
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: I should probably mix in some salads. You know, I

176
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: probably shouldn't need as many sugars. You know, I should

177
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: probably be a little lighter on the carps. Like us,

178
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 1: normal people have a good idea, let alone the people

179
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: at the highest level of professional sports. So I think

180
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 1: we have to start looking and we have kind of gradually,

181
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 1: but Tom has been such an outlier. I think we

182
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: are going to go on an era and we're already

183
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 1: in the middle of it, but it's only gonna get

184
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: more and more extreme. Where guys, even position players are

185
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: playing pretty consistently thirty four, thirty five, thirty six, thirty seven,

186
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: and quarterbacks there might be a large percentage of them

187
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 1: that plays only into their forties. You know, it's just

188
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: that's not gonna be abnormal golf. You're gonna see a

189
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: lot of guys in golf. Like Tiger's body just broke

190
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: down because he lifted too hard, because he trained too hard,

191
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: because he wouldn't listen to anyone about recovery, and and

192
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: he just got too big. He became like a linebacker.

193
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 1: Phil's kind of got the opposite. He dropped like thirty pounds.

194
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 1: He fast. Listen, if you would have told me to

195
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: fast five years ago, I would have laughed in your face.

196
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: I don't need breakfast anymore. It's not because I don't

197
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 1: love breakfast. I love eating Cinel roles. But I know,

198
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: like for me, I feel healthier, I feel more energetic

199
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 1: just when I don't eat breakfast. The other thing that

200
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: really jumped out to me, and I have nothing but

201
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: admiration for human beings that have a lot of money

202
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: and they keep working hard, that have accomplished a lot

203
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 1: and keep the pedal to the metal. Because I think

204
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: a lot of people naturally are pretty ambitious now different ages,

205
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 1: some of our ambition goes for whatever reason, maybe we

206
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: get derailed the wrong word, but we just we change course, right,

207
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: we we get married, we have a family, things change

208
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: in our life. But I think most people from in

209
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: their youth, in their teens, even in their twenties, just

210
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 1: have ambitious goals, and some people pursue those and others

211
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 1: just for whatever reason, can't stay consistent with them. But

212
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 1: I think the passion that we all have when we're young,

213
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: we all ideally would like to keep that forever, right,

214
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: And a lot of people aren't necessarily lucky enough. And

215
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,959
Speaker 1: I hate saying that because in this in this country,

216
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: you get to choose what you what you do. No

217
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 1: one forces you to do anything. When I ever i

218
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 1: hear someone like I don't really like what I do,

219
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: but I can't leave because I'm make it too much money,

220
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: Well that's you problem. You're choosing that you don't have

221
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: to do that. And I listen, like, I've sacrifice quote

222
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: unquote money early on in my career to follow passion,

223
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: to follow what I wanted to do, and like anything, like,

224
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 1: there were times when you're doing something that it becomes work.

225
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 1: It becomes tedious, it becomes hard. That's that's life. But

226
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 1: when you're acting it, when you wake up every day,

227
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,479
Speaker 1: like I've always been a big believer, Like my Mondays

228
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 1: and Fridays and Sundays and Tuesdays, they all kind of

229
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: blend together. I I've always you know, and listen, I

230
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: get it, Like I like the weekend too, but like,

231
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: thank God it's Friday. Like that seems like your life

232
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 1: is a little hollow if that's it. Now, I get it,

233
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: if you're like taking your kids to Disneyland or something.

234
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 1: But if every week you're just working for the weekend

235
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 1: until the weekend, right, you just can't wait to get

236
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,200
Speaker 1: to Friday, it's probably you know, might need a change.

237
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 1: And I think the thing you saw with Phil Mickelson,

238
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 1: who like Tiger Woods, those guys have so much money.

239
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: The way I described him both is the PGA tour

240
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: is full of like their top thirty forty guys all

241
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: flight private. They will never ever go to a commercial

242
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: airline like me or you ever. Again, Phil and Tiger

243
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 1: own their own jet. That's how rich they are. They

244
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: don't they they're not a part of net jets or

245
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: I don't even know any other ones. But obviously rich

246
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,560
Speaker 1: people are in some of these circles with the private

247
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,719
Speaker 1: jet airlines and they pay for like, uh, the equivalent

248
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: what would be a time share right in a jet.

249
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: Those guys have their own. When Phil Mickelson plays at

250
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: Pebble Beach, you know where he sleeps at night, he

251
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: gets in his jet and he flies home to San

252
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: Diego every night Thursday through Sunday and really shows up

253
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 1: on Tuesday. He goes home every night. And if someone

254
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: told me that, you told me the story, who's in

255
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: the kind of the mix in that area? Was like, yeah,

256
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: it's like a forty five minute flight home. It's like

257
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 1: you driving, you know, down to San Jose. What the

258
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: hell is the difference. I'm like, yeah, there is no difference.

259
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: So Phil, money is zero issue to fill, just like

260
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: money is zero issue to Tom, just like money now

261
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: to Lebron. They have unlimited money. Basically in their life,

262
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 1: everything is free. They can basically obtain anything they want

263
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 1: to attain, get their passion in their drive to keep

264
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: doing it, and really just the love of the sport.

265
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: And you see it when you watch him play. And

266
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 1: I was thinking about like the best team in the

267
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: NFL and I'd say the best team in the last

268
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: three years has been the Chiefs. One thing they have

269
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: is like when you watch Mahomes, when you watch Kelsey,

270
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,199
Speaker 1: they just there's a lot of passion when they play. Listen,

271
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: I'm supposed to hate the Dodgers. I'm a big Giants fan,

272
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: even though I don't really like Gabe Kapler, so it's

273
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: in a weird way, I kind of root for them

274
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: to lose, though I like their GM I'm kind of

275
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: in a predicament with my my baseball team. But I've

276
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: really respected the last three or four years of the

277
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: l A Dodgers because whenever I turn on the Dodgers,

278
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: you know what always jumps off the screen. It's like

279
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: these guys like playing baseball. Man, These guys like each other. Obviously,

280
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: Phil his his former caddy Bones, who we spent a

281
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: long time with now works for CBS. His caddie these

282
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: last four years has been his brother. That has to

283
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: be pretty cool, pretty inspirational. You just get to work

284
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: with your brother. Obviously, they're pretty close. There's something to

285
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: be said when you're like close with your teammates, right.

286
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: That's another thing. It always feels like the Chiefs had,

287
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: It's like, you know what, their guys obviously just love

288
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: football because they're good at it, but they really like

289
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: playing with each other. That's one thing Tom's teams all

290
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: he's had in New England. You always felt like these

291
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: guys are just pretty close. Gronk, Edelman, mccordy, just their group,

292
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: all the offensive linemen just like these guys just like

293
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: each other. When you like what you're doing and you're

294
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 1: passionate about what you're doing, even if you're making and listen,

295
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: I can't relate. I've never made thirty forty million dollars

296
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 1: a year, but clearly in throughout the history of time,

297
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: money's all relative. Guys in pro sports have been making

298
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: a lot of money for a long period of time.

299
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 1: The best guys continue to stay great, and they've always

300
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: made a lot of money because most of the best

301
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: guys are really passionate about what they do, and it

302
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: enables you to keep working. I watched some of Phil's

303
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: press conference after he won the tournament. He's like, you know,

304
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 1: this has not been easy. I I had to change

305
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: my diet completely. I had to work harder than I

306
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: ever have. Because I'm older, it takes me longer I

307
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: have to not eat as much. It sucks, but it's

308
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: all worth it. Like, what does Tom always say, if

309
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna beat me, you better be able to dedicate

310
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 1: your life to this, Because that's what I've done. Maybe

311
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: it becomes routine for Tom. Do you think it's fun

312
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 1: for him to eat avocado ice cream? You know, it's

313
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: a lot better than avocado ice cream, cookies and cream,

314
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: mint chocolate chip, chocolate chip cookie. Though I would rather

315
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: eat that than cookies and or than avocado ice cream.

316
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: I would rather just have a cheeseburger than a salad.

317
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: But the people that can discipline because of the passion

318
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: that they have for the sport, like, it's kind of

319
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,479
Speaker 1: changed in the game, and the guys always separate themselves

320
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: that way. And I just think Phil Mickelson serves as

321
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: kind of an example of who's really winning all these

322
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: other sports. The people that are taking their fitness the

323
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: most seriously, the people that are taking their diets the

324
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: most seriously. Now, you can get away with it as

325
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: a younger athlete, especially in football, but a lot of

326
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: guys now teams like are getting older, Like Travis Kelsey

327
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: is no longer a twenty five year old you don't

328
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 1: think that guy puts in a lot of time. You

329
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: can't fake that. We know Tom Brady, but you don't

330
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: think like Rogers is putting in a lot of time.

331
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. We know because he instagrams everything. But it's

332
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: it's not easy to do that. Like it sucks eating healthy.

333
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 1: I mean, it just does. Now you've reaped the rewards.

334
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: But it takes discipline. And I think it's easier to

335
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: be disciplined with whatever you do when you're passionate about it.

336
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: And it's like when I look at the teams that

337
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna bet on this upcoming year, like it's just

338
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: like it's gonna be hard to bet against Brady and

339
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,679
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. Like those two teams, Like how are they

340
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: not gonna be in the mix? All their chipped from

341
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:28,959
Speaker 1: the middle of the table. We know they're all in.

342
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: It's just like the passions there, I mean, the focus

343
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 1: is there, the desires there. Tom we know is completely

344
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,439
Speaker 1: unfazed by winning. He can win a Super Bowl next year.

345
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: He's trying to win it again. And the Chiefs have

346
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: this motivation of like we just got our ask kicked

347
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,120
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. I mean it's first class problems. Right.

348
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: It's most of the people, most people listening right now,

349
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,399
Speaker 1: they would die to for their team to have that issue.

350
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: We would love for our team to lose in the

351
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, right, I mean I saw it with the Nighters.

352
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: It sucked to lose, but it was It was pretty

353
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 1: incredible around these parts. You know, people were pretty excited

354
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 1: school to have a winning team. So just incredible moment

355
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: by Phil Nicholson. I I couldn't get enough of it.

356
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in

358

Speaker 1: Radio dot com and within the I Heart Radio app

359
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: search f s R to listen live. I found myself

360
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 1: doing a little reading today and an article from ESPN

361
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: dot com about the college football landscape. I think this

362
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,479
Speaker 1: also factors in college basketball, but the article was written

363
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: from the view of college football coaches and the problem

364
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 1: that is currently going on. I'm not sure I knew this.

365
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: I thought last year with Corona that everyone got an

366
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: extra year and that this season you were going to

367
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,240
Speaker 1: be allowed to transfer if you wanted to. You didn't

368
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 1: have to be a graduate transfer. You could just leave

369
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 1: and you would not have to sit out a year. Well,

370
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: reading this article, well, it came to my attention. And

371
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: if you're a big college fan, which I know, we

372
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 1: have a lot, and people have to hit me middlecoff

373
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: talk more college football. I love college football. So I

374
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I'm interested in this. You're allowed to transfer.

375
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 1: Now moving forward, what's in your career with zero penalty?

376
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 1: And it has college coaches up in arms. They are

377
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: freaking out, they are not happy, and a lot of

378
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: shenanigans are going on. And David Shaw us the world.

379
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 1: I like David Shaw. He used the word disgusting. Now,

380
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: I don't think the Stanford program really falls under this

381
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: this issue, but it's clearly in college football. And Mac

382
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 1: Brown described it in this article that you used to

383
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: after you beat a team, or you lose, you lose

384
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: to a team, you walk across the field to shake

385
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: your opponent, the opposing coach's hand. He said, Now you

386
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 1: find the guy on the other team that you want

387
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 1: on your team, and you be lyne right to him.

388
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of shady ship going on. Welcome

389
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: to college athletics. Right, college coaches have been leading for

390
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: years was zero repercussion. College programs have been paying guys

391
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 1: a ton of cash for years, no one's really cared.

392
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 1: And listen, I'm pro paying players cash. I have no

393
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: issue with it. It's been happening before I was born.

394
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 1: It still happened to this day. I'm all for it,

395
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 1: but to act and I always laugh when college coaches

396
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 1: kind of get on their moral high horse and act

397
00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: kind of like they're above it all, like we're too

398
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: good for this. Well, let's let's pump the brakes here.

399
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: Here's just a simple reality of life. Things change, things

400
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: progress good or bad. But whatever business you're in, whether

401
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: it's college football, whether it's an internet business, whether it's healthcare,

402
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,239
Speaker 1: things are always going to change and the faster you

403
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 1: adapt to it, the better you'll be. So if I'm

404
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,159
Speaker 1: a college coach, I'm not spending an unlimited amount of

405
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 1: resources on trying to get guys mother programs, but I

406
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: definitely have to embrace it. Now, there's a balance because

407
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: you don't get more spots. Right, If you have twenty

408
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: scholarships on a given year for your recruiting class, you

409
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 1: would technically not give one to a high school kid

410
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 1: and give one to a transfer. That's how it works

411
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: with graduate transfers. You don't get extra scholarships for these

412
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: type players. So there's a thousand plus guys in the

413
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: transfer portal. Right, here's the thing, some programs eventually will

414
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 1: draw a line in the sand. If you're a good

415
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 1: enough player, they'll give you the leeway. They won't yake

416
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,679
Speaker 1: your scholarships. But a top program will go. If you

417
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,439
Speaker 1: go in the transfer portal, there might not be a

418
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 1: seat coming back if you decide not to leave. And

419
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 1: first and foremost, the way I look at it is

420
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: starting with the coaches. It's hard for me to feel

421
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: much sympathy for them. One, they've never made more money

422
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: coaching in college football, which again I believe they deserve

423
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 1: a lot of cash. Their program generates all the money

424
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: for the entire athletic program. And if they're if they're

425
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: winning or successful, you don't even need to be Alabama

426
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 1: if you're just a successful program. Oh, Wisconsin, I mean

427
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: Texas is successful, not for what they want, but it

428
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: wins obviously, Oklahoma, Oregon, Washington. You go around the country, right,

429
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 1: you know, Michigan is furious, like they're still winning eight

430
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: nine games, still generating a lot of money, Georgia, you

431
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 1: name it. We know all the programs those coaches my

432
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: entire life and moving forward, always leave and to act

433
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:36,719
Speaker 1: like that. Some shadiness is going on between coaches calling

434
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: players when they're not supposed to, coaches using runners to

435
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: get two players on other rosters, because that was a

436
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,959
Speaker 1: big thing. David Shaw said that it is and it is.

437
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: It is slimy to talk to a player on while

438
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: he's on another roster, if he's not in the transfer portal,

439
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 1: that is a slimy move. Just like in the NFL,

440
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 1: they have strict rules about being able to talk to

441
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: or even talk about players and other other rosters. That

442
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: does not mean it doesn't go down. You would be

443
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: naive to think it doesn't go down, and you would

444
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: be naive to think before this rule was implemented that

445
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: you could transfer without penalty, that this hasn't taken place before. Also,

446
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 1: some of it's out of your control, and they talked

447
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: about this in the article. A lot of it is

448
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: kids recruiting their friends, and the and the flatter the

449
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 1: country gets in terms of these camps, in terms of

450
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: social media, in terms of if I'm a star player

451
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: from California and you're a star player from Georgia, maybe

452
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: we go on some recruiting visits. When we're juniors in

453
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: high school, we develop a relationship and we become buddies.

454
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 1: Back when I was a kid, if I became friends,

455
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: if I grew up in Sacramento and I became friends

456
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: with a kid from Dallas, how would I stay in

457
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: touch with him? It would be impossible. It would be

458
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: pen pals. Now, we just follow each other on Snapchat, Instagram,

459
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: Twitter or whatever, and we just context. Don stop. It's

460
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,199
Speaker 1: easy communications, really easy. So we develop a bond and

461
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: maybe one day we go to start it off in

462
00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 1: different schools, and then the year two he goes, you

463
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: know what, I don't really like it here. Now I'd

464
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: be the first to say, you gotta be very careful

465
00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 1: about thinking. The grass is always greener on the other side, right,

466
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 1: Because if you're a player at Boise, or you're a

467
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,439
Speaker 1: player at Fresno State, or you're a player at like

468
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,640
Speaker 1: u c F, you know one of the good, uh

469
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 1: nonpower five programs, and then the Power five programs start

470
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 1: calling you. You have to ask yourself, am I for

471
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: sure going to start there? Because this program didn't give

472
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,679
Speaker 1: me the light of day, didn't even they wouldn't pick

473
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,159
Speaker 1: up my phone calls two years ago and now they're changing,

474
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 1: like there is risk involved you get there. Here's the

475
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: other thing. College football and college sports and just sports

476
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 1: in general are very vulnatible. If you transferred to a school,

477
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 1: that coach, unless it's like Nick Saban can't get fired

478
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: at any moment. If the coach is good, he can

479
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 1: go to the pros any moment. Things can change very

480
00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 1: very quickly. But here's what I think the most important thing.

481
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: If I was a coach, or if I was consulting

482
00:24:58,800 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: with a coach, or I had a friend that was

483
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: a head coach, I'd say, if he was freaking out

484
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 1: about this, the number one thing I would focus on

485
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: is to make your program be the most desirable place.

486
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 1: Whether you're at Clemson or whether you're at Iowa, whether

487
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,239
Speaker 1: you're at U C. L A, or whether you're at

488
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 1: Fresno State. Make you're a program once the scholarship because

489
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: you get eighty five scholarships in Division one, it's a

490
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 1: lot of kids that this is a place that guys

491
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: want to be and it's hard. But one thing in

492
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 1: this article, Luke Fickle talked about it. Pittman, the coach

493
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: in Arkansas, talked about it. People are just freaked out

494
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 1: about losing their starters. And this is I mean, Tennessee

495
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: just lost a starting linebacker to Alabama, So it just

496
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 1: it could be any level of program to another program, right,

497
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: But if you're not focused on making every kid in

498
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: that program feel important, and again there's a balance, you're

499
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: not once you get to the program, You're not kissing

500
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: their ass. You're trying to make them better, You're pushing them.

501
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 1: But a guy, a red shirt player, especially at a

502
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 1: power of five program, was probably a pretty highly recruited guy.

503
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 1: So he's not playing for the first time, isn't in

504
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 1: his entire life, right, he's been a star player. Maybe

505
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: he has some second thoughts. We're all human, we're all

506
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 1: especially when we're young, We're gonna think crazy thoughts. You

507
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: have to be for that guy, very You have to

508
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 1: think about that player and try to, you know, grow

509
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 1: the relationship and make it so this is where the

510
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: guy wants to be. Because clearly Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State,

511
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 1: all the good programs do a really good job of that.

512
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 1: I know Chris Peterson when I used to scout at

513
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 1: Boise State did a really good job of that. Then

514
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: he went to Washington. He does a really good job

515
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: of that. Is this perfect? Is this ideal? Of course not.

516
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,359
Speaker 1: If I was a college coach, would this be a

517
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 1: pain in their ass? Yes, because any player at any

518
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 1: moment can transfer. But those are the rules now, and listen.

519
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 1: I don't like a lot of rules. I don't like

520
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 1: a lot of loss, right, I don't like paying taxes.

521
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 1: But certain things in your life you just gotta do.

522
00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: I've heard enough stories now people older than me that

523
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: sold something and they've tried to circumvent like I don't

524
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 1: you know, I just sold this for X number. I

525
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,439
Speaker 1: don't want to pay in taxes. I'm gonna try to

526
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 1: avoid it. Eventually you're gonna have to pay it. So

527
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 1: the easiest thing is just to embrace it, do it,

528
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: and move on. This is part of the world in

529
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 1: college football. Guys are going to transfer. But if you

530
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: make your program the best possible program, when as much

531
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 1: as possible, put all your emphasis into like this is

532
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 1: where you should want to play, develop guys and coach

533
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,199
Speaker 1: them up and make them feel not only wanted, but

534
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 1: most kids worth their salt want to be pushed and

535
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: get better. Then it's not gonna be that big of

536
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 1: a problem. Are you going to lose if you're not

537
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: the biggest program a star player occasionally to a power

538
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: five program? Probably, yes, that's just it's the way the

539
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 1: cookie crumbles. No different than if you were a coach,

540
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: you know what you CF and L s U calls,

541
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? You'd leave to its like

542
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: what happens if the Dallas Cowboys call, you'd leave too.

543
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: So I can't even blame some of these players for going.

544
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 1: Now that doesn't mean always just because you pull the

545
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 1: trigger and go, it's the right decision to be made.

546
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 1: But like things change, you know, back when I remember

547
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 1: growing up, Nebraska was a huge powerhouse. Back then they

548
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: got like unlimited scholarships and they could like stack their team.

549
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 1: And then things change. Recruiting babe became, you know, much

550
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 1: more much more balanced across the country, and they've become

551
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 1: kind of irrelevant for twenty years. Right, So you either

552
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,399
Speaker 1: adapt with the times or you get past you get laughed.

553
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: And I think the coaches to do the best job

554
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: adapting to these transfer rules, which I don't blame them

555
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: for hating them, but you just kind of roll with

556
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: the punches will have the most success. Let's get to

557
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: the NFL stories of Monday, and there are three things

558
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 1: that really stood out to me. I want to start

559
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: with the story I kind of saw this weekend, but

560
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: I read something about it this morning. Albert Rear wrote

561
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: about it and he disputed the claim that the Detroit

562
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 1: Lions had offered the head coach of Iowa State, Matt Campbell,

563
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 1: who the scouting buddies I know that have gone through

564
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: the program really really like him. Impressive guy. He wears

565
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 1: that hat, you know it's he folds it pretty strong.

566
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: He's a football guy. The Lions offered him sixty eight

567
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: million dollars. Now, I don't know if that's true or

568
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 1: not they offered him that much money, but I think

569
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: when you factor in that he's been in the mix

570
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: the last couple of years to get a head coaching

571
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: job in the pros, he kind of feels like Chip

572
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: Kelly seven or eight years ago, Matt Rule a couple

573
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: of years ago, like Lincoln Riley keeps saying, No, he's

574
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: kind of that guy if he wanted a job in

575
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: the NFL, Let's say next year, he would become a

576
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: head coach in the NFL. That I I pretty I'm

577
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: sure of that if he wanted to be a head

578
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: coach this year, he would have gotten a job now.

579
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 1: Brier wrote that he didn't think that the formal offer

580
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: was made despite Spielman. I get, there's there's Rick and

581
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: there's Chris. One guy runs the Vikings, great hair, good GM.

582
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 1: He's a really good GM, the Vikings GM. And then

583
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: his brother football player played for the Lions. Ohio State

584
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: guy been on Fox forever now doesn't run the Lions,

585
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: but he's like above the GM. He answers the owner.

586
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: He's a powerful guy. And here's what the thing with

587
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: college football, and we just talked about clearly the transfer rules.

588
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: There's a pain in the ass dealing with eighteen, nineteen

589
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: twenty year olds. It's it's not fun when you factoring

590
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: also recruiting, which is year round. Now. I know Urban

591
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: Meyer talked about it when he got the Jacks job.

592
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: I can wear you out. I read a long article. Uh.

593
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: Chris Peterson, the former Washington coach and Boys State coach,

594
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: had mentioned earlier fantastic Q and A with Bruce Feldman

595
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: of the Athletic He's just an interesting guy. But one

596
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 1: of the things that wore him down was the recruiting

597
00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 1: talking to fourteen fifteen year old that sucks. The one

598
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 1: thing when I got to the pros from college football,

599
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: it's like, I'm so tired of dealing with high school kids,

600
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 1: Like I want to deal with someone. And I think

601
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: this is why most people aspired at the NFL. I

602
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: pay you to do a service. You can either block

603
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 1: the guy or will cut you, you know, just like

604
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: if I can't coach or get fired. It's it's very

605
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: black and white. It's just it's very it's just pure business.

606
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: We're in college. You can't technically take their scholarship if

607
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: they're academically you know, functional, right, if they're if they're

608
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: not failing out of school, there's nothing really can do.

609
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: You can't cut them because they just suck at football.

610
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: You get very complicated, right, and you're constantly recruiting against

611
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: other people fifteen year old guys you don't even know

612
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 1: they can play yet. But the one thing college football

613
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 1: has really done and the Power five conferences, especially the

614
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,040
Speaker 1: Big Ten, the Big Twelve and the SEC, and it

615
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: gets you factor in the a SEC to mainly Clemson.

616
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: But they pay, and they pay a lot. I think

617
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: a reason if you just look back in history, the

618
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: main reason a lot of college coaches jump to the

619
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: pros wasn't because they didn't like coaching college. I'd imagine

620
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 1: like the eighties in college, if you had a program

621
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: like the you, Florida State, Alabama, USC whatever, even the nineties,

622
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 1: it's a great job, right, the recruiting was much easier,

623
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: but the reason you left was always money because they

624
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: paid way more. Well, why did the Carolina Panthers last

625
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: year have to pay Matt Rules so much money? The

626
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 1: media freak, I can't believe they gave him sixty five million.

627
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: You can't. Baylor was paying him eight. Baylor was paying

628
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 1: him eight. So part of the reason Lincoln Riley, who

629
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: arguably has the best job in America because they don't

630
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 1: fire coaches. Right. Part of the reason Alabama's a great

631
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 1: job is because of Saban, Like they were running through

632
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: coaches before he showed up. Oklahoma is gonna be like

633
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 1: the Steelers of college like that, They're gonna have two

634
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,320
Speaker 1: coaches for like forty years. They also pay a premium

635
00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: you make seven eight nine million dollars. I know people

636
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: who have seen pictures of Lincoln Riley's house in uh

637
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 1: in Norman Oklahoma. Here's pretty badass. You're living like a king.

638
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 1: So if I'm making seven, eight nine million dollars in college,

639
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: that's what the pros pay, right. It's not like I'm Belichicker,

640
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 1: Andy Reid or Sean Payton. I'm not getting twelve million dollars.

641
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 1: Devil makes eight or nine million dollars. Jim Harbaugh, I

642
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 1: think he took a pay cut. Was making huge cash.

643
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: Ryan Day makes a lot of money. Sark makes a

644
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: lot of money. All these programs have large budgets to

645
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 1: to hire coaches, so that used to be their biggest

646
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,479
Speaker 1: point of difference the NFL had, And I don't know

647
00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: whether the Lions hired him or not. I do think

648
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: when you follow if you followed Matt Campbell's career, they

649
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 1: ultimately hired Dan Campbell, So they were they were in

650
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 1: on the Campbells. It was clear what they were looking for.

651
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: They wanted an old school, tough guy, football guy. They

652
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: didn't want this academic elitist in Patricia who was a joke.

653
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: I mean that was one him and Quinn the GM

654
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 1: that was about his embarrassing of like a three year run.

655
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: As you get in the pros, that is really bad

656
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: right for people, for people that had a lot of hype,

657
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 1: Like when Freddie Kitchens was hired, we knew it was

658
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 1: kind of a joke, right, Like when Pat Schrumer was

659
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 1: hired with the Giants, it's like, yeah, we've watched Patrumer

660
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,919
Speaker 1: be a head coach. This is not gonna work. Part

661
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: of Patricia was like, God, he's like this smart Version

662
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 1: Belichick guy. This guy's a genius. And it was an embarrassment.

663
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: So they clearly pivoted the other way. But when a

664
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 1: guy at Iowa State, and this shows you the money

665
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 1: in college football for the coaches is so great, they stay.

666
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: It's one thing to stay, Like it is understandable for

667
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,400
Speaker 1: Lincoln Riley to stay at Oklahoma. He could look himself

668
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 1: in the mirror and I know it hasn't happened yet,

669
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 1: but he can convince himself, I can win a national

670
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: championship here. I can become a legend here. Matt Campbell,

671
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 1: that's not true. I can become a really big deal

672
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 1: in the town, which he is. We can have a

673
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:53,240
Speaker 1: really solid program, which we are. But my ceilings capped.

674
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 1: Anyone at Iowa State historically would not only never turn

675
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: down a pro job that guy would have gone to Texas,

676
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 1: he would have gone to Dallas. You he would have

677
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 1: He would have been gone three years ago. But the

678
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: money now, the Power five, the Big twelve is making

679
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: so much money they can afford to pay guys six

680
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 1: seven eight million dollars living like a king and winning.

681
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:17,720
Speaker 1: He doesn't have to leave, So sixty eight million dollars.

682
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,320
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people. I saw the reaction

683
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:24,040
Speaker 1: on social media. People thought that was insane. It's just

684
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 1: based on what you're making. David Tepper just didn't want

685
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 1: to quote unquote overpay Matt Rule because he liked the guy.

686
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: Because that was his going rate. That's what it cost

687
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 1: to get him to come. He had a job that

688
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: paid a lot. Another story today, Julio Jones, Shannon Sharpe

689
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 1: called him from his television show with Skip Bayliss, and

690
00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,800
Speaker 1: the reaction on social media was like, I can't believe

691
00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,560
Speaker 1: he wouldn't wink Julio Jones. He didn't tell him he

692
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 1: was on live TV. Guys, if we didn't learn one

693
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: thing from the draft and one thing going on now, agents,

694
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: teams and players utilize the media. They used them to

695
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 1: do their bidding. One if you've seen the clip. I

696
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,399
Speaker 1: know Julio kind of played dumb and didn't know what's

697
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: going on. I think he was in on it. I

698
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: think it was an orchestrated thing to leak out that

699
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,720
Speaker 1: I'm gone. Whether he wants out. There were reports today

700
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: that he had been pushing for a trade for a

701
00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,399
Speaker 1: couple of months. Whatever. He just wants this finished. He

702
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: wants to be traded. So like the the the Atlanta

703
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 1: Falcons have been dipping their toes in on this, like

704
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 1: hurry up and pull the trigger, get something done. And

705
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,919
Speaker 1: I think Julio slashes agent today. You Shannon Sharp, knowing

706
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,839
Speaker 1: it would go viral, to hopefully push the envelope here

707
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 1: to get the ball rolling, to get him onto another team.

708
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: You'd have to be naive to think that Shannon Sharp,

709
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: a former Hall of Fame player, randomly would do that

710
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 1: to a guy they're working together. That's the way this

711
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: thing works. That's the way television is. It's entertainment product.

712
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: This isn't journalism died a long time ago. When it

713
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: comes to television. You could argue it's dead too with

714
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 1: other publications, but definitely with television. This entertainment. They know

715
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 1: what they're doing. Julio wants out, the Falcons want to

716
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: move them. We'll just make a trade. What are we

717
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: waiting for? To me, the teams that should be all

718
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 1: over at the Packers should be the number one team.

719
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: We'll get an Aaron Rodgers here in a second, I

720
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,439
Speaker 1: would have traded for Julio Jones a week ago. Middle coff,

721
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 1: What about the salary cap. I've cut some guys. Well,

722
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,400
Speaker 1: let's make some room. Let's figure it out. Salary cap

723
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 1: is a fictional, uh number we that can be moved

724
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,959
Speaker 1: at any moment. It is very, very fluid. The number

725
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 1: could be eighty one day. You get it down to

726
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 1: a hundred fifty and a blink of an eye, you

727
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: can restructure a contract. You can kind of guy boom,

728
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,520
Speaker 1: you got dollars. We see it every year. We see

729
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: it all the time. So when you tell me we

730
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 1: don't have any money, that's bullshit. Give two guys pink slips, well,

731
00:37:55,760 --> 00:38:00,359
Speaker 1: all clear, fifteen million dollars pretty easily. Uh. The other

732
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: and the Colts I think should be all over him.

733
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,759
Speaker 1: I'm telling you the Rams will not hesitate. The Seattle's

734
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 1: always sniffs around on this stuff. I think because those

735
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 1: two teams are in and Kyle's connection to him. I

736
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,879
Speaker 1: would imagine the Niners are sniffing around. He is going

737
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:15,800
Speaker 1: to end up on a good team there. Michael Holly

738
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 1: reported this weekend that the Patriots that he's interested in

739
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 1: playing with Cam. The Patriots are interested. This guy is

740
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 1: gonna get traded in the next couple of weeks. Uh,

741
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,279
Speaker 1: And clearly Julio wants it to be sooner than later.

742
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 1: He's tired of And I don't blame him, Like, stop

743
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 1: talking about me. I'm the best player. Like, I got

744
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 1: news for you. Check out the great players in the

745
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,360
Speaker 1: history of the Falcons. Me and guy talked about it.

746
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: We we put up a video on our YouTube page.

747
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: Check out our YouTube page. I also put all this

748
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 1: stuff on YouTube to John middlecoff uh that the Falcons

749
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame list of great players, Julio Jones the

750
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,959
Speaker 1: best player in the history of the franchise because Matt

751
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: Ryan's not gonna go the Hall of Fame. Julio Jones is.

752
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: They've never had a Hall of Fame or start to

753
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 1: finish on their franchise. Now, Julio is gonna end up

754
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,719
Speaker 1: playing somewhere else. But like guys they recognized or like

755
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: Brett Farve. It's like Icerett far I've played for your

756
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: team for a year as a backup, and then you

757
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 1: traded him. You don't get to claim him, even Dion.

758
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 1: When I think Dion, I think of the Niners and

759
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, not the dirty Birds. Morton Anderson played a

760
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: lot of years for a lot of other teams. Chris Dolmany,

761
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 1: they recognize him like Chris Dolman's a ike. Aaron Rodgers

762
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 1: no show today for quote unquote, I mean it's voluntary,

763
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:29,160
Speaker 1: not mandatory. It's voluntary. But he's in Hawaii hanging out, chilling,

764
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 1: doing some uh. I saw a video that went viral

765
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:34,760
Speaker 1: of him singing karaoke. He just living his good life.

766
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,800
Speaker 1: MVP in the league, worth a hundred couple hundred million dollars.

767
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: Life is good. He was outspoken two years ago or

768
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 1: last year. He doesn't want to do O T S.

769
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 1: Don't blame him the hell O t A S for

770
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. He doesn't need him. So I don't think

771
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: it's that big a deal. Now. I don't really know

772
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: what the endgame is here, because it does not behoove

773
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 1: the Packers to trade Aaron Rodgers because it does not

774
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 1: behoof Goodikins and the floor to trade their meal ticket

775
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 1: for a risk of Jordan's love who we have no

776
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 1: clues any good even they if they were, we were

777
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 1: drinking beers and all of us listening and we got

778
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 1: to talk to them, they would say, we honestly don't know.

779
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: We had We had no offseason last year. Then once

780
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 1: we got to training camp, we had to focus on

781
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 1: the season. He wasn't even our backup quarterback. He needs

782
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: a lot of work. I don't see how they could

783
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 1: say anything else. He was a very talented player coming

784
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 1: out of the draft, heed great physical attributes. Yeah, but

785
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 1: as a player, we've never even seen him in a

786
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,880
Speaker 1: preseason game, let alone an NFL game. I don't even

787
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:40,839
Speaker 1: think he addresses for the games last year. So you

788
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 1: could not trade one of the greatest players in the

789
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,120
Speaker 1: history of the league for a complete unknown. That would

790
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,759
Speaker 1: be insanity. And I also don't think even if the

791
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: Raiders were like, hey, we'll give you three first a

792
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: second in Derek Carr, I even think that's a pretty

793
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:57,160
Speaker 1: big risk, Like you're just gonna trade Aaron Rodgers. To me,

794
00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 1: you are not trading him until training camp and he's

795
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: just refuses the show for weeks on end, and it

796
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 1: creates a huge stick. I am getting into a staring

797
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,800
Speaker 1: contest if I'm the Packers brass and the staring contest

798
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 1: doesn't truly start until training camp. Now, he he would

799
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,279
Speaker 1: get fined I think fifty dollars if he misses the

800
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 1: mandatory mini camp, which fifty grand. Aaron Rodgers probably like

801
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 1: five dollars to mirror you, So not that big a deal. Now,

802
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: what I've read about training camp is, however, it falls

803
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 1: under the cb A given how many years he's been

804
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,840
Speaker 1: in the league. You know, normally for these younger guys

805
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 1: that hold out, they want contract extensions, right the Michael

806
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 1: Thomas is Khalil Mack, Aaron Donald, those type players. You

807
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 1: get fined every day you're not in camp, but they're

808
00:41:42,280 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 1: able to refund you that money when they extend you.

809
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: From what I've read on Aaron Rodgers, that is not

810
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 1: the case. So every day he misses when training camp start,

811
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:55,319
Speaker 1: they will not be able to refund that money. So

812
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 1: I think the number one date for Aaron Rodgers for

813
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 1: this too, Like, is this a real deal or was

814
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,200
Speaker 1: he just kind of in a bad mood and wanted

815
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,720
Speaker 1: to mess with them and through some jabs is training camp,

816
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: which is a couple of months away. Because I I

817
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 1: have a hard time unless they got some historically great

818
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:17,920
Speaker 1: offer of them trading Aaron Rodgers before he really forces

819
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 1: their hands. And even then, like I'm not saying, it

820
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 1: makes him look at the like the bad guy, but

821
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: it does, you know, perception with the fans would you'd

822
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 1: get a little more understanding right now. If you trade him,

823
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,760
Speaker 1: you lose. You lose public perception, you lose on the field,

824
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: at least in training camp. If he hasn't shown up

825
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:40,800
Speaker 1: for three weeks, you go what they all were supposed

826
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,760
Speaker 1: to do, We're just we're just gonna play like Jordan's

827
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 1: love is not ready, he's not showing up. We're just

828
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 1: gonna make a move. At least then you would have

829
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,600
Speaker 1: evidence is the wrong word, but you would just have

830
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 1: some substance behind doing something that's gonna be unpopular. I

831
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 1: I go back and forth because I thought Russell Wilson

832
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 1: was gonna get trad right. I thought, God, you know,

833
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,439
Speaker 1: he's just he's talking a lot. They just truly kind

834
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 1: of are are tired of each other. I was reading

835
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: Pete Carroll to day He's like, yeah, we just water

836
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 1: unto the bridge. We're good to go, like we've just

837
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 1: met in the middle. We helped him out. We got

838
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator, we got him some offensive linemen. We're

839
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,040
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot better. He's good now. It is

840
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:22,319
Speaker 1: what it is like. Damn that changed fast now. The

841
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 1: difference with Seattle than Green Bay. And I've always said

842
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 1: this about Russell's like they've done a pretty good job of,

843
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:32,359
Speaker 1: I don't know, always winning one and two, even though

844
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,759
Speaker 1: it hasn't always worked. They always take big swings. The

845
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 1: Packers never do, like the biggest free agent signing they've had,

846
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,440
Speaker 1: I guess one of the Smith brothers really good, Darius

847
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 1: and Charles Woodson, so two guys in his tenure there,

848
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 1: and I think Charles maybe came a year before he started.

849
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 1: But my point is that they don't always, like every

850
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 1: other year, make big traits. That's not really their style.

851
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 1: Go trade for Julio Jones and you have Julio Jones,

852
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: Davante Adams, Aaron Jones and eight offensive line and just

853
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 1: a great offensive scheme, and go, Aaron, you're not gonna

854
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,360
Speaker 1: show up. You want to go to the fucking Denver Broncos.

855
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 1: You'd rather go to Denver Broncos to play with Davante

856
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 1: Julio and Aaron Jones. I mean, are you serious? You

857
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: you watch how fast the fans turn on him, then

858
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 1: hey we got you, Hula. You want to go to

859
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,320
Speaker 1: the Raiders. You want to go with Jon Gruden. The

860
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 1: guy doesn't want a meaningful game since uh, since like

861
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,399
Speaker 1: George W. Bush was in office. That's that's what you want.

862
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: That's that's the hell You're gonna die on, buddy, That's

863
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 1: what I would do. So I would force his hand

864
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: with a move because then the like most of us

865
00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 1: would be like, what is Aaron doing? He's leaving the

866
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,840
Speaker 1: Packers for who where he wants to go where? I

867
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't want to live in Green Bay either, but he's

868
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 1: lived there for fifteen years actually more right, because he

869
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: had drafted No. Five. Yeah, sixteen years. I understand. I

870
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,320
Speaker 1: would rather live in Denver. I'd rather live in Vegas.

871
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: I'd rather live in l A. Most people listening probably

872
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 1: would as well. But this is just it's a unique profession.

873
00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:00,840
Speaker 1: It's a profession he chose and his team good. I

874
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,400
Speaker 1: would get if they sucked, and like that's miserable. I

875
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 1: understand why NBA players in small markets want to go

876
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 1: to bigger markets. It's like our team is not good.

877
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:09,759
Speaker 1: I don't want to be in this little market. I

878
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: can make way more money there and we can win.

879
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: I get it. I understand why guys want to play

880
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 1: for the Dodgers or the Yankees. It makes sense, like

881
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 1: playing in Tampa. No one shows up and we can

882
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 1: win in Tampa. Right we're staying with the A's, it's

883
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,239
Speaker 1: like we're play in front of empty stadiums. I get it.

884
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 1: And you get paid away more money. He gets paid

885
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:31,359
Speaker 1: to premium and they consistently win. So I've been saying

886
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:32,959
Speaker 1: this over and over. I'm gonna keep beating this drum.

887
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,200
Speaker 1: If find the Green Bay Packers, I trade for Julio

888
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 1: Jones and I just I kind of put the put

889
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 1: the pressure in Aaron's court. Okay, three and out. Obviously

890
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 1: that's the podcast you're listening. But Middlecoff mail bag slide

891
