Speaker 4: I'm not giving the scoring, okay, yeah.

28
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 3: Or playing the walk off. I did play it earlier

29
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 3: for the first I'm a team player.

30
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: And Dodgers played in Milwaukee today, and uh that Stilly's

31
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: wound up shutting out the Giants thirteen to nothing and

32
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 1: just blow it right.

33
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 3: Past it, right past it. That was the positive. Giants

34
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,960
Speaker 3: sucked at home. Okay, all right, you know we still

35
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 3: have a nice lead. Okay there, Giants missed an opportunity there.

36
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: That would have been a great and the Dodgers played

37
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: the safe through in Milwaukee. That was a tight game, and.

38
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 5: The Giants suck and the Giants suck.

39
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: Now back to you, Jason, Okay, that works. That's a

40
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: different that's a very different way. What's trending.

41
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 5: That covers the story of what happened today.

42
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: It covers the story. It's like when I watch It's

43
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: like when I watched The Bear and I just say, hey,

44
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: I didn't watch this week at the Bear. I could

45
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: sum up what happened in less than five seconds. That's

46
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: how boring the show is. Now, I could tell you

47
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: what happened everything in that for in less than five seconds.

48
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 3: I have not gone on that show? Are you telling

49
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:06,920

Speaker 6: Now?

00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: stop and then just stop.

53
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 5: Yeah okay, kind of like Dexter after four seasons?

54
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,639

55
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 3: Season? Was was is that where Rita passed away? The

56

Speaker 3: scene in the bathtub? Was it that season four? There

57
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,080

61
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: and make it through four seasons, it's good. Yeah, no,

62
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 1: it's all. But I'm telling you first two scenes a bear,

63
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 1: it's it's phenomenal. And then it's like it's you know

64
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: when you watch a soap opera and you feel like, boy,

65

Speaker 1: if I miss a month, you don't really miss you

66
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,600

71
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,760

72
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 1: You can it doesn't matter. You don't need to see it.

73
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: I could just tell you in five seconds. Will Poulter

74
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: came back to work and yeah, and since that had

75
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: a heart attack, what else. That's it. That's it. But

76
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: that's all. That's all. That's forty five minutes, because twenty

77
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: five minutes of it is them chopping onions and making

78
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: a dessert, them going wild chef, wild chef, wold chef.

79
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 3: Oh, you're really selling it, that's what it is. You're

80
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 3: really selling it.

81
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: Okay, seasons, two seasons, amazing, amazing, amazing. Wait, but not

82
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: the first not the first show where the first couple

83
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: of seasons are great, and then after it's hey, we're

84
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: kind of out of ideas. All right, let's just uh,

85
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: let's just put a lot of music montages in. Let's

86
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: just run it out and just extend it as far

87
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: as we can. Let's just keep going.

88
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,399
Speaker 3: Don't hate the player, hate the game.

89
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: Speaking of extensions, big news today. If I said to you, hey,

90
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 1: guess who's gonna be the highest paid player in the

91
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: history of the game per year by the end of

92
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: the day today. I'm so excited it. Maybe you would

93
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: have gotten to this person. Maybe not. However, uh Shamsterrania

94
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: just putting this out about a half hour ago. Devin

95
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: Booker has agreed to a two year, one hundred and

96
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: forty five million dollars maximum extension with the Suns through

97
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty nine twenty thirty season. Now, this money

98
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: that he is getting puts him just above Shake Gildess

99
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: Alexander for the richest contract ever Shake Gildess Alexander seventy

100
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: one point two five million dollars a year. And now

101
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: you have Devin Booker who is two more years. Because

102
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: Phoenix is desperate to keep their stars, He's now getting

103
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 1: the most money per year in the history of the NBA,

104
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: history of the league.

105
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 3: I mean, it sounds crazy, but I think Devin Booker

106
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 3: realizes the situation and he's like, all right, we don't

107
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 3: control our draft picks for the next seven years. We're

108
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 3: kind of screwed, but I can make money hang out

109
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 3: here in Phoenix whatever. Clearly he doesn't care about winning.

110
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: He's it's not like the sun Set. You know, he

111
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,359
Speaker 1: made the Sun's game with a bunch of guys and saying, Hey,

112
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: you're gonna pay me now or I'm gonna wreck this

113
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 1: play with me. This is such a crack my knuckles.

114
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: Did you hear me crackles doing that?

115
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 3: Such tough?

116
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been watching watching too many movies like that. Yeah,

117
00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: you come in here, you do. You're gonna give me

118
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: every two million dollars a year, then you're gonna see

119
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: what happens. All right, let's go.

120
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 3: No, you're right. He was not this New York gangster

121
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 3: mob Mooster that came in and took this money. It's

122
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 3: the situation that he is in, and I want to

123
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 3: blame him.

124
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 5: But at the same time, I'm like, what else is

125
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 5: he supposed?

126
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: You wouldn't say no.

127
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 5: I would, I wouldn't say no.

128
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,680
Speaker 1: But the Fox Sports radio say, hey, Monci, here's two years,

129
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 1: one hundred and forty five million dollars.

130
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 3: I would say, I'll take one forty four Give one

131
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 3: million to Jason Smith.

132
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: Oh okay, so that's cool, Thank you.

133
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 3: I got you.

134
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: I only get a million, and I want to get

135
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: it's just a million.

136
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 3: You're the only one that's getting anything.

137
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: Oh, okay, you're getting the rest of it.

138
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:35,679
Speaker 3: Exactly.

139
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 1: That's fine, Exactly.

140
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,599
Speaker 3: I know I hear what you're saying. Says. I'm not

141
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 3: blaming him because in other situations we would be like, oh,

142
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 3: you should probably take a pay cup to make your

143
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 3: team better, Lebron James, you know you should probably take

144
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 3: a pay cup. But for him, I don't think there's

145
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 3: another scenario for him, Like he doesn't want to leave.

146
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 3: They don't want him to leave. The Sons have no

147
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 3: other option. Like you said, we got to keep someone

148
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 3: here because we don't know the future. The future looks

149
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 3: real for the Sons with this Western Conference. They know

150
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 3: they don't need one move, they need twenty seven moves

151
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 3: to all of a sudden be competitive.

152
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 5: So I think they're just.

153
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 3: Like, all right, we're screwed. We'll keep our star. People

154
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 3: will keep coming to see Devin Booker. Devin Booker's like,

155
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 3: all right, I don't have to go anywhere that's cold.

156
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 3: I'll hang out here, make a lot of money, and

157
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 3: see you guys in two years, see where we're at.

158
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: This sounds like, okay, I'd love for us to get divorced,

159
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 1: but we can't. Oh yes, you're the only one working

160
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: right now. I'm you know, I'm not worried. We have

161
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: our you know, our son, we got it. We got

162
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: one kid getting ready to go to college. Our daughter's

163
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: gonna be going in three years. We can't sell the

164
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 1: house because we're underwater on it. So okay, we're just

165
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: gonna have to be together for the next couple of

166
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: years because leaving doesn't help either of us. Yeah, but

167
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: that's perfect. That would be exactly what it is. It's

168
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: exactly what it.

169
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 3: Is that you hit it right on the money.

170
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 5: The house is Bradley Bial right now. The house we

171
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 5: can't house, let's Bradley Beil.

172
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: We have a bad realtor. We can't sell this out. No,

173
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: but look there now it's the Suns, and they have

174
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 1: tried a lot of different things. There's worse things than

175
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: building around Devin Booker. Right, he's one of one of

176
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: only two. He and Giannis are the only guys in

177
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: the last seven years to average over twenty five a

178
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: game every year. So there's worse than building around him. Obviously,

179
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: you give him a lot of money, it's less to

180
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: get other players. But hey, you just got to find

181
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: the right formula. But you know, so here's the money

182
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: for Devin Booker. Now you want to get bigger than

183
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: this for Devin Booker. Right, And this, this is going

184
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: to wind up being my greatest bull prediction that I've

185
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 1: ever made, because two years ago when when Jokic signed

186
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 1: his extension a couple of years ago, and the last

187
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: year he was making sixty two million a year. Right now,

188
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: this this extension that he no longer wants, that he

189
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: wants a new one next year so he can make

190
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: in the eighty like eighty one million a year at

191
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: the end, right by twenty thirty, Okay, by the year

192
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: twenty third, we're twenty twenty five. Right now, in the

193
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: summer twenty twenty five, there will be an NBA player

194
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: making one hundred million dollars a year. Someone's going to

195
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: sign a contract that's going to be for one hundred

196
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: million dollars a year. And again, we talked about this

197
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: last night because Yokicic was, hey, he wants to opt

198
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: out so we can sign a bigger deal next year

199
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: and he would be in the eighties for his final

200
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: he would be in like eighty four million a year

201
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: for the last year or two whatever. It could wind

202
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: up being for him. So now you're talking about a

203
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: year from now, Jokis jumps from seventy two to eighty four.

204
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: So I got four years. I bet it happened before that.

205
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: Devin Booker got seventy two. Man, how many guys in

206
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: league on a I need more money than that. It'll

207
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: probably be Wemby. It'll probably be when because you're talking

208
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: about in five years, there's gonna be somebody who's twenty four,

209
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,559
Speaker 1: twenty five gonna get that kind of money. But someone

210
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars a year. I thought it could

211
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: happen in the NFL too, But you know, now we

212
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 1: see that salaries are being controlled a little bit morech

213
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: we'll get to win a few minutes. So I thought

214
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: maybe a quarterback would get there, but probably not. By then.

215
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: They're growing a little bit more incrementally. But by twenty thirty,

216
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: if Devin Booker's getting seventy two million dollars a year

217
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: now for the last couple of years of his contract extension,

218
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,760
Speaker 1: someone's gonna sign by twenty thirty for one hundred million

219
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 1: dollars a year. Oh ye, one hundred million.

220
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 3: Any I don't even know how to process that, right

221
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 3: now because I think you're on I think you're on it.

222
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 3: I don't think this is that crazy of a take.

223
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 3: It really isn't. And that's the crazy side of it

224
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 3: that this seems like right on par with what we're

225
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 3: gonna see. I was gonna say, maybe even Luka Doncic

226
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 3: could get up there if he continues to do could

227
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 3: get closer.

228
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: He keeps in shape, another couple of good years and

229
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: maybe sure they could be Wamma's.

230
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 3: A great one. That is ridiculous to think about.

231
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 5: So when you put it that way, do you think

232
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 5: the Phoenix Suns were smart and doing this now?

233
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: Well, I always think anybody who wants to see somebody

234
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: you sign a guy early because the contract's just gonna

235
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,959
Speaker 1: get more money. Anybody that doesn't do stuff like this,

236
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 1: you could tell they're scared. So at least Phoenix has

237
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: been aggressive. You could tell Manshpi's a guy. He guy

238
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: opens up his computer every day and see somebody says, oh,

239
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: I didn't know this, Let's go get this guy, Let's

240
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: go spend this money. Right, there's worse owners to have

241
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: the ones that gets scared of stuff and say ooh,

242
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a lot of money and maybe

243
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 1: we can get him on the cheap. If he has

244
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: kind of a down year, it's like, okay, that's just

245
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,679
Speaker 1: not gonna work. So yeah, locking him in now, by

246
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: the time it would come up to he's thirty two

247
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: years old, coming up for the next deal, it would

248
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 1: be more money. It would be a longer time for

249
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 1: more money. So yeah, locking him in for the next

250
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: four years of his prime, which are gonna take him

251
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 1: into thirty two. You're thirty two to thirty three, Okay,

252
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 1: Now you just got to get it right right and

253
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 1: said you have to get it right. Building around him,

254
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 1: they were aggressive. They thought KD was coming. Obviously, Kevin

255
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: Durant hasn't led anybody to anything in six years. I

256
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: could have told you that, but hey, you know, Matti

257
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 1: Spa didn't call me. Bradley Beal's gonna come. Now you're stuck. Okay,

258
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: Now he's got the note trou Okay, that's great. But

259
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: at least they're being aggressive. So I enjoy the aggressiveness

260
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,719
Speaker 1: of it because I'm never gonna fault someone for that.

261
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 1: It's just okay, you want to be able to make

262
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: the right decisions to keep flexibility. But I mean who

263
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: else are you gonna give that money to? Right, Devin

264
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,320
Speaker 1: Booker one of the best pure scorers in the game, Clearly,

265
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,600
Speaker 1: I feel like he's kind of on the Damian Lillard

266
00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 1: path where we're gonna be talking about him and he's

267
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: gonna keep scoring twenty five a game and the Sons

268
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: are gonna keep losing and by the time he gets

269
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: at thirty two to thirty three, we're gonna say the

270
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: same thing with Lillard. Boy, I wish he would get

271
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 1: to another team, right, just like because that was the

272
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: way with Damie Lard, Like, like like a few nights

273
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 1: NBA nights a year he would go for like forty

274
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: five and on the show, we'd go, man, nobody else care.

275
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: No one's gonna be talking about this tomorrow because it's

276
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 1: late at night. It's the Blazers and the Kings or

277
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: the Blazers, and no one's gonna do. Would love Lillard

278
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: to get to another team. That's gonna be the same

279
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: thing for Devin Booker, Boy, he's a bigs would love

280
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 1: to see him get to another team at some point.

281
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:16,720
Speaker 1: That's what we're saying for him.

282
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 3: I totally hear the comparison, although it was I feel

283
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 3: like it was a little different because right now, the

284
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 3: Sun's like, you're I don't expect you to do any

285
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 3: damage in the Western Conference in the next two years.

286
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 3: If I'm being completely honest, You've got to make sense.

287
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: Don't sell them short. Two years maybe maybe ten, maybe

288
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: twelve they think fifteen, Still sell them short.

289
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 3: I feel like with Portland there was a bit of hope,

290
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 3: like they were putting pieces around Damian Lillard, and it's again,

291
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 3: it did not go the way that they thought, but.

292
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,079
Speaker 5: I feel like there was hope. There's no hope with

293
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 5: the Sons right now.

294
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 2: Right now, what.

295
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: Happens next the Sons get a first round pick or

296
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: the Mets get done paying Bobby Benia, Okay, because that's

297
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: twenty thirty five. Okay, that's twenty thirty five. It's gonna

298
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: be It's close.

299
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 3: It's real close. It's close because they don't have all

300
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 3: over their picks for seven years, so it's like it's

301
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,839
Speaker 3: not it's not looking good for them. So it's a

302
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 3: little bit different with the Portland and the Blazer situation

303
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 3: with with Lillard, but it does seem like it's going

304
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: in that direction where it's like he's gonna keep having

305
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 3: a great career. But that's as far as it's gonna go. Yeah,

306
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 3: I mean it seems success is not looking good for him.

307
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: No, it's it's it's always hard, and it's kind of

308
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 1: the philosophy of you want to build a team when

309
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: your quarterback is on a rookie contract, so that's when

310
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: you have the money to be able to pay other players,

311
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: and you know your quarterback's still making money in theory,

312
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: but hey, while Jalen Hurts is on his rookie deal

313
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: or someone else is on their rookie deal, Hey we

314
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: can win now. And that's great. If you don't, okay,

315
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: it gets a little bit tougher because you're paying your

316
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 1: quarterback now, so it's harder to go out and get

317
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: other players. So yeah, it's a lot tougher in the NBA,

318
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: but you have to keep your big players. You can't.

319
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: You can't win in the NBA without stars, you don't.

320
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: You No one wins a championship without at least two superstars. Yeah,

321
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: it doesn't happen anymore that way. That that's kind of

322
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 1: how it goes. And so you saw, hey, you know

323
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: Homegron today with the with the rookie Max that he

324
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: got with the thunder, and now you're talking about Shay Gilders,

325
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: Alexander and chet Holmgren and Williams and you need great players.

326
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 1: So it's it's a catch twenty two. But you gotta spend, man,

327
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: you got you got. If you don't spend, you're gonna

328
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:11,719
Speaker 1: sit there and say, Okay, Greg, you gonna try to

329
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 1: be the little engine that could. Little engines don't do

330
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: it in the NBA.

331
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 3: Yeah you know. Okay, So he is spending money because

332
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 3: they have to for one reason. Sons are spending money

333
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 3: because they have to for another completely different reason.

334
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, but yeah, at.

335
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 3: Least at least you're being aggressive.

336
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: Hey, that's all. It's all good. Yeah, it's all good.

337
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 3: It's better than the alternative.

338
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, this is true. This is true. You wait,

339
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: you wait. By twenty third, you're gonna remember this cop.

340
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,200

Speaker 1: All right, all right, sliding in after dark here on

435
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: Fox Radio. So we had the deaf books money conversation

436
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,320
Speaker 1: a few minutes ago. Now, how about this as far

437
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: as money goes from the NFL, A big story today.

438
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 1: It's weird We're gonna do a big story. I'm gonna

439
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 1: tell you why fans don't care. Is this Kirk Cousins.

440
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: It's not. No, we'll get I know, I I know,

441
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: we talked before the show. We'll get to your discovery

442
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: that Kirk Cousins is overpaid later on. No, we'll get

443
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: to that. It don't start on Matt Ryan. Apparently Pablo Torri,

444
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,200
Speaker 1: who was you know, seen on ESPN for the last

445
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 1: few years, suddenly heast now turning into the new mark

446
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 1: for Nei Ruwata investigative reporter. Uh. That is going to

447
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: blow the lid off of stories, whether we want them

448
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 1: or not. Because you know, we had the whole thing

449
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: about Bill Belichick and Jordan Hudson a few weeks ago,

450
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: and I remember hearing that going, I don't get why

451
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: why is he looking into this? This is just weird.

452
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: There's no crime, there's no anything. It's just weird. Why

453
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,159
Speaker 1: is this taking up all this time? But there is

454
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 1: something else taking up this time, obviously on the Pablo

455
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 1: Tory Finds Out podcast, in which there is evidence now

456
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: that the NFL and senior leaders of the NFL Player

457
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: Associe committed collusion together. There was an agreement between the

458
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: NFL and the NFLPA to limit the restricted guaranteed money

459
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: in player contracts. So basically what happened was everybody got

460
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: mad when Jimmy Hasselm decided, oh we need a quarterback.

461
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: Hey to Sean Watson, you don't want to be here

462
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: at all?

463
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 3: Do you know?

464
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 1: But what if we guaranteed every penny of your contract?

465
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 2: Well then I want to go.

466
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 1: Okay, great, So all of that money guaranteed to a

467
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: guy coming off an awful story and an awful headline,

468
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: and I don't even know what to say at that

469
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: point where how you can redeem anything, where yeah, you

470
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 1: went through all of this, but here's two hundred and

471
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: fifty million dollars guaranteed. So a lot of people were

472
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 1: upset about this, right and now apparently there's evidence that

473
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: both the NFL and the Player Association colluded to keep

474
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 1: the guaranteed money from skyrocketing. So ensuing years, Lamar Jackson,

475
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: Josh Allen Mahomes, all these guys got new contracts, and

476
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 1: so now they can suddenly say, wait a minute, we

477
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 1: could sue the league, we can declare free agent, we

478
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: can do maybe we could do a lot of things.

479
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 1: Because now there's evidence that both sides colluded to keep

480
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: that going. Now there's two takeaways from this right before

481
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 1: one takeawa before you get to why why fans don't care?

482
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 1: Number one is that, man, if I'm a player and

483
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 1: I go, wait a minute, I understand the NFL colluding

484
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: with the owners saying we don't want to keep that,

485
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: we don't want to keep this money. How do you

486
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: keep that from the players. Hey, we're gonna make we're

487
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: gonna take care of you. I get that you have

488
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 1: to work together, there's symbiosis there, but you work for

489
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: the players and you keep this and you keep this

490
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 1: quiet Like this is where you have to just clear

491
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: out everybody leading the NFLPA and find new leadership because

492
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 1: they're supposed to be working for the players and instead, Yeah,

493
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 1: we kind of had this agreement that we're gonna limit

494
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: the guaranteed money and salaries. Wow, I can't believe NFL

495
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: players are they haven't all just stormed three four five

496
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,959
Speaker 1: Park Avenue and said, Okay, something's got to happen, right,

497
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 1: like Frankenstein, they're all with torches at the end, going

498
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 1: throw him down, throw them down. I can't believe that

499
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 1: hasn't happened yet.

500
00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 3: You're not wrong. When I read the story, that's all

501
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 3: I cared about, because you're right, what don't fans care about?

502
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,639
Speaker 3: I don't care or am I surprised that the owners

503
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 3: want this and wanted to control right guaranteed money. But

504
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 3: the NFLPA, huh huh? What else are you colluding? What

505
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 3: else are you hiding? What else have you withheld details

506
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 3: to the players about you? You know, that's what The

507
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 3: next question is? What else have you kept from us?

508
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 3: What else have you not done in our favor when

509
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 3: you were supposed to be fighting for us? Because if not,

510
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 3: then what's the point here? Very it's very disappointing, I'm

511
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 3: sure as a player to read that, but as the owners,

512
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 3: it's like, I'm not surprised about that.

513
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 5: I'm not surprised that the owners are doing this.

514
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 1: All the owners are. I'm sure the owners are mad

515
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 1: they got found out, absolutely mad.

516
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 5: They not found out that you found out that they

517
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 5: were in on it?

518
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: Yeah now yeah, now everybody, but all the anger is

519
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: really going to wind up going to the NFLPA because

520
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: I think people are got well. Of course, the NFL

521
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: wants to keep salaries down. I'm sure they all taught. Hey,

522
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 1: there's collusion for different times for keeping money down, whether

523
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: it's keeping Colin Kaepernick out of the league, wherever you want, wherever,

524
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,959
Speaker 1: whatever side you come down on that. But to hear

525
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 1: that though the Players Association is doing this is this

526
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: is where like this is like if if you were

527
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: being defended for a crime and at the end the

528
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: lawyer says, hey, I uh, you know you gotta take this. Yeah,

529
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: you gotta take a deal. I'm not I can't get

530
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 1: you off. You got to take a deal. Okay, what

531
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: is it. So you gotta do five years? Oh okay, great,

532
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 1: and then five years go by and you find out

533
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, maybe they're the prosecutor. We just didn't

534
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: want to try the case. We were tired of going

535
00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: on vacation, so we just struck a deal with each

536
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: other that yeah, you were gonna get five years and

537
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:36,919
Speaker 1: that was it, and I wasn't gonna try. I had

538
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: a lot of evidence I could have got I could

539
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: have got you off. Yeah, I got DNA, I had everything. Man,

540
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: you didn't do this. I know you didn't do it,

541
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 1: but boy, it would have been a lot of money

542
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: and waiting for the lab to come in and you know,

543
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 1: we had this vacation book to Egypt with Aaron Rodgers

544
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: and it was such a bit there, so we really

545
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 1: didn't do it. That's that's finding this out. Now you're

546
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: supposed to be working for me, you're supposed to be well, nope,

547
00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: but they're not.

548
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 3: Now they're not and probably making money themselves out of

549
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 3: this deal. That's the other side of it. It's like,

550
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 3: you agreed to this for what perk? What did you

551
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 3: get out of this? Because this is a big deal.

552
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 3: The minute it came out, you knew this was gonna

553
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 3: hit the fan for you.

554
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 5: Not the owners, because again we expect this from the owners.

555
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 3: In a sport where injury can be so high, it's

556
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 3: very different than in other sports. Kind of like you

557
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 3: said in the last hour that you thought maybe in

558
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 3: the NFL one hundred million dollar contract annually could be

559
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 3: a thing, but because of injuries and the demanding physical

560
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 3: toll that this sport takes, it's very different from the NBA.

561
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 3: But none of this is surprising from the owners. Nobody

562
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 3: is now looking at their owners differently. Now they're just

563
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 3: looking at the people they trusted the most differently, and

564
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 3: that's like worst case scenario out of this story.

565
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: Can't trust anybody, can't trust anybody.

566
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 3: And it's like, what did you get out of this?

567
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 3: You didn't just agree to this without getting anything out

568
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 3: of it? So you got the money that was guaranteed

569
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 3: for me?

570
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: Yeah?

571
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:55,160
Speaker 3: Instead? Yeah?

572
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 4: And not.

573
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: The thing is that you're right, what does this open

574
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,360
Speaker 1: the flight door too? Yes?

575
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 5: Because it's not just one.

576
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,120
Speaker 3: When there's one ant, you know, there's not one ant.

577
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,080
Speaker 3: There's hundreds of ants. That's always what I've been told

578
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 3: my mom. But there's one, you know, there's a lot,

579
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 3: so handle it. So there's one here, there's a lot more.

580
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 1: But I don't want to keep looking.

581
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 3: And that's the thing. I don't want to look. No,

582
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 3: keep looking, get that spray out, that raid spray out,

583
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 3: and handle your business.

584
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 1: Yeah. But but they're the red ants. They bite you.

585
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you have to. You got to get out there.

586
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, pants on, No, that's red.

587
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

588
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: You get out there and you kill every ant until

589
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: but I don't want to do it, But you do

590
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 1: it or you're not eating tonight. All right, fine, going

591
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: out to kill the ants. I got them all, mom,

592
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 1: So now the other part of it is this is

593
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 1: one of the biggest reactions I would say of this

594
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: is boy, I can't believe it's not a bigger story, right,

595
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: I said, like, I can't. How is this not a

596
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: bigger story? Like that was a big thing that I

597
00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: saw most of the day on social media? How is this?

598
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,719
Speaker 1: How is this is not a big deal? How more

599
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: people not care about this? And like, you know what,

600
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 1: it's a very inside baseball thing where Okay, we're keeping

601
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 1: salaries down and people understand. I'm not saying people don't

602
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: understand it because certain things, okay, a little too much

603
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 1: for you know, I only have so much ram in

604
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: my head for stories and stuff and what I care

605
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: about what I don't. Okay, But this is a case

606
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 1: where if you ask the average fan, hey, are you

607
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,200
Speaker 1: outraged over this? The average fan is gonna say players

608
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 1: get paid too much? Anyway, what do I care? I mean, really,

609
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: I'm supposed to be upset that Joe Burrow couldn't get

610
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 1: three hundred and ten million and had to settle for

611
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy five million. Right or wrong, People

612
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,719
Speaker 1: don't care. People don't care about that they've done. Players

613
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: have been overpaid since we since we knew what salaries

614
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 1: players were making. I'm short in the forties and the fifties,

615
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 1: if there was sports talk radio and you found out

616
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 1: that players, you know, hey, so and so signed such

617
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: a big contract in baseball, he doesn't have to take

618
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 1: a second job in the off season selling shoes, which

619
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 1: is what a lot of the players did. They would say, oh,

620
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 1: he's overpaid if he has need to work in the

621
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 1: off season. I know guys, their shoes, they were construction.

622
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: They do this, they work in the tax office like that.

623
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 1: I'm sure you would have found fans back then go all,

624
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,239
Speaker 1: this guy's way overpaid. He's getting five hundred dollars a year.

625
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 1: That's way too much money. I mean, fans generally think

626
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 1: athletes are over as much as they love sports, much

627
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: as we love sports. Mostly we care about the money.

628
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 1: And fans care about the money when it comes to

629
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,239
Speaker 1: being able to sign other players, right, I don't care

630
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: what it costs. I want to be able to bring

631
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: in player X, or I want to be able to

632
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 1: have enough money in the salary cap to bring in

633
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 1: an edge rusher, you know, a box safety, a running back, whatever.

634
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,959
Speaker 1: That's where we care about money for but this money, Oh,

635
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: so players couldn't get paid money. You're talking about the

636
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 1: upper one tenth of one percent of players in the

637
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: NFL that have kept salaries down. Because are they really

638
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,160
Speaker 1: talking about keeping salaries down for a guy who's gonna

639
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: sign for two years and four million. No, But it's

640
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,719
Speaker 1: the big top end guys, the big quarterbacks that are

641
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 1: out there that we're going to reset the market. And

642
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 1: I'm sure the owners saw that and said, Okay, here

643
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 1: comes Lamar and Burrow and Mahomes and all, Okay, let's

644
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: make sure we take care this. But generally, yeah, this

645
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 1: is not gonna be something that you're gonna whip fans

646
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: up in a frenzy because that's ninety percent of the

647
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 1: fans are gonna say, hey, I don't care. I don't care.

648
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: And if we were doing the show for the players,

649
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: it'd be different. We do four hours as if it's

650
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: just players listening. But fans, Yeah, I get it. I

651
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: get that fans, because honestly, I have to think about

652
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 1: how much do I care about this? Right? I care

653
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,959
Speaker 1: more about it from the perspective of the people supposed

654
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,400
Speaker 1: to be working for the players, the players associations that yeah,

655
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: we had this agreement that was screwing you. So sorry

656
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 1: about that. That's the part I care about more. But

657
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: the money thing, it's gonna be really hard to make

658
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 1: this to sell. This is Oh look at this story

659
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, there's got to be investigations

660
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 1: in the NFL and people have to lose jobs. That's

661
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:41,400
Speaker 1: not gonna go that way.

662
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

663
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 3: No, it's hard to have sympathy for rich people just

664
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 3: wanting to make more money, right, It's like problems we

665
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 3: don't understand. So it's the rich getting richer, but we

666
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 3: don't have sympathy because, like you said, it's not the

667
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 3: guy coming in that's making a couple of million, it's

668
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 3: the guys that are already making millions. And you you

669
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 3: think there's no more collusion here as to why the

670
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 3: story isn't pushed. You think it's fans not being interested,

671
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 3: and I agree to that, but I also feel like

672
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:12,000
Speaker 3: there's probably people sending messages to those who control the

673
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 3: stories saying, hey, you know, don't write about this, don't

674
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 3: retweet this. You know that's going on as well. Oh yes,

675
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 3: it's being controlled on the media level of those people

676
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 3: who would be tweeting this information.

677
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: Out.

678
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 3: Pablo tweets about things that people aren't talking about, just

679
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 3: like you mentioned the whole thing with Jordan Hudson and

680
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick, Like nobody cared about that. He chose to

681
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 3: dive into.

682
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: That, and so like what is he gonna if he's

683
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 1: gonna uncover something illegal? Or somebody wait, what what do you?

684
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 3: What do you?

685
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: What are you uncovering?

686
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 3: Maybe he was trying to find something new, like oh,

687
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 3: you know spygate point point two. Oh, I don't know.

688
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 4: But here I feel like there is you knew ahead

689
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 4: of time that Jordan Hudson would say, yes, exactly, you

690
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 4: ahead of time, that's what it is.

691
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: Ahead, Yeah, I have the signals down. They had a

692
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,040
Speaker 1: guy filming. Hey, okay, I see that's okay, so she'll

693
00:28:58,040 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 1: say yes if you ask around. So we know ahead

694
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: of time and that's exactly exactly.

695
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 3: But here I do feel like maybe there's just a

696
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 3: bit of a couple of people saying, hey, don't wrung

697
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 3: with the story. Let's just let it die down, let

698
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 3: the players handle it themselves, don't let the public get involved.

699
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is and I'm sure it was. This works

700
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: best for both of our sides. If you do this

701
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: for us. The owners say, we'll do something for you.

702
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 1: We'll make sure this is the case. I mean, I

703
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 1: understand it in theory. I understand it in theory, but

704
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: in the end, what you got to say, Okay, if

705
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: it gets out, and look, the NFL has done a

706
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: pretty good job of keeping things secret that they don't

707
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: want out. But yes, if this gets out, if the

708
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: shield is not protected and this gets out, because it

709
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: always that happens once in a while in every zombie movie.

710
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 1: You think you have a great, great defense, but all

711
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 1: you need is one crazy ass zombie to make it through.

712
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: A one guy to fall asleep or one guy to

713
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: leave and go to the bathroom, and one zombie gets

714
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,000
Speaker 1: through with suddenly, awe, now we got a problem, right

715
00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: like this episode two of the Last of Us. Right

716
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: now we got problems. Now we got all kinds of

717
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: problems because the zombies broke through. Sorry spoiler, Now we've

718
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: got problems. And now Joel's going to pay the ultimate price.

719
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 1: So so there's that. Yeah, but it's a while people

720
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 1: know that by now.

721
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 3: Also spoiler, it's not good here. Yeah.

722
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 1: So I mean, like, if that gets you understand that,

723
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: you could ruin so many things like the is the

724
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: risk versus the reward here of now the players are

725
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: going to say, we need all new elected officials. We

726
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: need to rip up this collective bargaining agreement and get

727
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 1: a new one. That's the first thing I would do

728
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 1: if I was one of the players in charge, I

729
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: would say, we got to rip up this CBA and

730
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: sign a new one because we don't know what else

731
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: is going on. We need a new CBA ratified right now.

732
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 1: Like that's what I think is going to wind up

733
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 1: being the Hey, now, then you suddenly get to a

734
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: oh boy, now you've done it, so I understand that

735
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: was it worth it to keep salaries down for like

736
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: three or four quarterbacks when when this is going to

737
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: be the result?

738
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 3: Well, they didn't know it was going to come out, right,

739
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 3: And that's what the shield, that's the shield is probably

740
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 3: doing just that, trying to control this, keeping it down,

741
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 3: keeping it low so it doesn't more details don't get

742
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 3: out to the public because you know, there's more to it.

743
00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: This is not it.

744
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 3: There's more to the story, more intricate details that we're

745
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 3: probably not gonna know. But the shield wants to protect it.

746
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 3: The shield. If there is a problem now with the

747
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 3: NFLPA and the players. The Shield does not want the

748
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 3: public to know that that is information that we may

749
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 3: not hear unless Pablo decides to dive into it and

750
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 3: finds out more information.

751
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: We jumped into something else, but.

752
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 5: It's damage control almost right. Now, here's this point.

753
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 1: Here's who was dancing with Tom Brady at the Bezo's wedding. No,

754
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,800
Speaker 1: now you look, as Sidney Sweeney was dancing with Brady

755
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 1: then photographed for the Orlando Bloom, We're gonna see where

756
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: we're at. Was she really the person everbody wanted to

757
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 1: talk to? Who else did Brady talk to at the wedding?

758
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 1: Pablo Tory finds out and then.

759
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 3: That would be a great story, and that would be great.

760
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 3: Do you have footage of said Tom Brady with miss Sweeney?

761
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:48,719
Speaker 1: Because I would have loved how to throw a football,

762
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 1: so you.

763
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 2: Hold it like that.

764
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 3: I would have loved to have seen that. I want

765
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 3: to know how much game Tom Brady has.

766
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 1: If you want to flick your wrist like this a

767
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: little bit and then you want to just kind of

768
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:57,880

00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 3: has no game.

771
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: He doesn't need me. He has to walk out, Hey,

772
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 1: that's tom Brady. That's the only game you need.

773
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 3: You need against against Sweeney, you need some games.

774
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,840

775
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: still the only game he needs, the only game. The

776
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: only game she needs is I'm Sydney Sweeney.

777

Speaker 1: than she doesn't care about football.

780
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 3: He's going to be more than that.

781
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,320
Speaker 1: If she still knows who tom Brady is, though, that

782
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 1: doesn't matter.

783
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:26,600

881
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:56,120
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee. It is brooms for the Brewers as they

882
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: sweep the Dodgers for the first time ever. Here in

883
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: mob first sweep of the Dodgers in a series in

884
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: franchise history. They have never swept the a three game

885
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: series in Milwaukee. Even the Dodgers were terrible in some

886
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 1: years ago, they have never swept them until today Brewers

887
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:18,759
Speaker 1: TV on the call for the play of the day

888
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: and the first time it's ever happened. And now the

889
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,320
Speaker 1: Dodgers have lost six in a row. So we have

890
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: to have the conversation we had coming off the three

891
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 1: games sweep at the hands of the Astros. Hey concern

892
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:36,800
Speaker 1: about the Dodgers, right ELLOK. Obviously between the Dodgers and

893
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 1: the Yankees, the two big high profile teams. More concerned

894
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,640
Speaker 1: about the Yankees because they're just not as good the Dodgers.

895
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,280
Speaker 1: This is where I feel. I'm out with the Dodgers

896
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 1: right now. Losing six in a row. Their big thing

897
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 1: is going to be, oh, are they gonna wind up

898
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: with the best record of the National League right making

899
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: the playoffs and being ready to go that That's not

900
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: gonna be the question. But I gotta say I do

901
00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: not fear the Dodgers like I did last year. I

902
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 1: think the average fan I like that Mets fan. I

903
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,359
Speaker 1: don't fear the Dodgers right now. We already beat him

904
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: four out of seven, So okay, just like that. In

905
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,320
Speaker 1: the NLCS, we'll have so it woann to be fantastic.

906
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: So I no longer I don't fear the Dodgers. Yes,

907
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: they have injury issues and they're gonna be getting back

908
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: healthy at some point. But you know, when you're midway

909
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 1: through the season and you're saying, hey, we're hoping to

910
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 1: get healthy, it's kind of what it is, a hope

911
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 1: because if a players have been out for that long,

912
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: who knows how they're gonna come back. Yest, Glasdow came

913
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 1: back today. Any pitch, well, okay, great, but you're clearly

914
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 1: not quite the same team you were a year ago.

915
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: Tani's not having quite the same year. Mookie Betts has

916
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: not been very good. Will Smith has been great right

917
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 1: a catcher, hitting three thirty a phenomenal year. But I

918
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 1: don't fear the Dodgers like I have the last couple

919
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 1: of years. I'm not going into a playoff series thinking

920
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: it's been a great run. Maybe if something happens we

921
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 1: get lucky. No, I'm going in thinking we can win this.

922
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:53,080
Speaker 1: They they are beatable. We can beat the Dodgers in

923
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: a series in the playoffs. It doesn't mean we're going home.

924
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, Chip Chip cheerio over there to I'm Johnson

925
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,760
Speaker 3: Cherif congratulations to him. I completely understand.

926
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: That was very sarcastic. I don't think you really meant

927
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 1: to congratulation.

928
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 3: I hope you got it.

929
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 1: I hope he got it.

930
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:11,280
Speaker 3: Uh, you are not wrong in that feeling, Jason, because

931
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 3: right now, a team like the Dodgers, we're on paper,

932
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 3: no team that has that type of roster should lose

933
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 3: six in a row. So right now, yeah, they look

934
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 3: very normal, very human, and I think last year, for

935
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 3: a second, they did it. There are issues. You're right,

936
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 3: I'm not worried about the Dodgers making the playoffs. No,

937
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 3: they're gonna make the playoffs, that's not the question. But

938
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:38,320
Speaker 3: they these issues are real. I don't know, Muki, you know,

939
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 3: struggling going to shortstop, Like there are plays where he

940
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 3: looks really good and then there are plays where he

941
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 3: doesn't look that great. Port Furthy Freeman has to save

942
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 3: a lot of the balls thrown at his way at

943
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 3: first base, not just from Wookie bets. That is something

944
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 3: that's a real question. They Alsott had none this last

945
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 3: year was our star, and he had a great start

946
00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 3: to the year. He's dipped off.

947
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 5: We want him to come back.

948
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 3: There's a lot of players that we're hoping to come

949
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 3: back to their high potential, but it's a lot. And

950
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 3: then with Shoho Tani, like now you're pitching and you're hitting,

951
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 3: has taken a dip, understandably so and I hate that

952
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 3: the All Star break is actually coming right now, specifically

953
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,279
Speaker 3: for Shoheo Toni. He's trying to get in a rhythm

954
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 3: of pitching and hitting and now you're about to take

955
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 3: a break. So that rhythm is going to take a break,

956
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 3: and that's not great for him.

957
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 4: Uh.

958
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 3: Freddie Freeman right now, he has this whole this whole

959
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 3: month of July has like fifty strikeouts career, He's like

960
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 3: a twenty percent when it comes to strikeouts right now

961
00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 3: fifty percent. Like they're just swinging that stuff. So they

962
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 3: look very normal, very human. You should feel like they're

963
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,920
Speaker 3: not scary. Now, hopefully that is all part of the plan.

964
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 1: And it's you in exactly all sense of security, exactly

965
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: what the trade deadline. Yeah, hopefully that's the thing. At

966
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: the trade deadline, we're gonna get Max.

967
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, now, ye do all those things. But yeah, they

968
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 3: definitely look real human and normal right now with the

969
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 3: sixth game losing streak, first time being

970
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,360
Speaker 5: Swept by the Astro since two thousand and eight at

971
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 5: Dodger Stadium,
