Bucky Brooks, Hello, book, 12 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 2: how are you? 13 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 3: I'm good, I'm good. What's going on? Andy? 14 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 2: I couldnot wait to talk to you today because there's 15 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 2: certain things that are bubbling in my mind between my 16 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 2: ears and I have so much more newfound respect for athletes, 17 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 2: particularly football players. I'll tell you what I mean by that. 18 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,639 Speaker 2: Yesterday the Chicago Bears beat the Buffalo Bills in preseason 19 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 2: by thirty three to six. That may have been the 20 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 2: worst thing to possibly happen to the Chicago Bears this year. 21 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 2: And why do I say that you took about a 22 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 2: pressure and expectations. They got the number one pick, the 23 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 2: Heightsmen win the Caleb Williams and the guy just was 24 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 2: he goes four to seven for passing ninety five yards. 25 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: He looked decent and I passed to DJ Moore. You 26 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: would have thought that they won the Super Bowl five 27 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 2: times over. I mean the pressure and the expectations I 28 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 2: wouldn't have been able to live with is going on 29 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 2: in that kid's minds Caleb Williams right now? Am I 30 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,479 Speaker 2: over exaggerating this? Or the expectations right now? On Caleb Williams, 31 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: the way they're talking about him when he's writing about 32 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: him and he only had four of seven, He only 33 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 2: played what twelve snaps something like that? It was crazy 34 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 2: or twenty snaps. I don't know what it was. Expectations 35 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 2: right now can basically eat you up alive. Am I 36 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: crazy or what? 37 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, Expectations are not always a good thing because it 38 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 3: does add pressure, a heightened sense of expectation in terms 39 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 3: of what you're looking for a team. And so for 40 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 3: the Chicago Bears, you talk about number one overall pick, 41 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 3: They've been the hype darlings all preseason in terms of 42 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 3: all season because everyone expects this team to make a 43 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 3: major jump from what they did last year to this year. Look, 44 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,799 Speaker 3: the expectation of Kayler Williams to come in and tear 45 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 3: the league up. All of those things have only escalated 46 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 3: since his debut against the Buffalo Bills. They went up 47 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 3: and down the field. And even though he only led 48 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 3: the team to back to backfield goals and it's two 49 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 3: drives that he was in the way that they played, 50 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 3: the way that they looked, the way that the team 51 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 3: kind of knocked off and blew out the Buffalo Bills 52 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 3: in the preseason game certainly kind of raises the bar 53 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 3: as we get close and closer to the regular season. 54 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: And look, you've been around there, you've been there, you 55 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: played the game, and you're part of it. It's just 56 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 2: something that coaches are happy about. Certainly, you play the 57 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 2: game to win, I don't care if it's preseason or not. 58 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 2: And that's why they put points on the board, because 59 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: you play for a score win. But right now, I mean, 60 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 2: the Bears have created a situation that is even more 61 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 2: pressure laden than it was prior to the draft. I mean, 62 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 2: the fans just say, wow, they beat Buffalo. You know, 63 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: Caleb looked really good, and now they're expected to go 64 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 2: march along playoffs, maybe even deep in the playoffs. It's 65 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 2: a crazy phenomenon, it really is, don't you think. 66 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, it's pretty crazy to think. And they're in 67 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 3: a very very competitive division because the Detroit Lions the 68 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 3: Green Bay Packers aren't going anywhere. They're going to have 69 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 3: to scratch and claw to get to the top of 70 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 3: that division to give themselves a chance to get in. 71 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 3: But I mean, look, the optimism should be there because 72 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 3: the quarterback is legit, like Kayleb Williams was number one 73 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 3: overall pick for a reason when a Heisman two years ago, 74 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: and everyone has said when he plays within himself, meaning 75 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 3: if he's a little more disciplined and patient within the pocket, 76 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 3: he has the ability to be one of the greats 77 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: at the position. But a lot of times he ventures 78 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: or veers off this scription kind of does his own thing. 79 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 3: It's that delicate balance where you want him to be 80 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 3: the gunslinger, but you want him to be the discipline 81 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 3: game manager when need be. So it's just a matter 82 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 3: of him learning how to do that. But if he 83 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 3: does that, it does unlock the Bears offense and gives 84 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 3: them a great chance of doing great things. 85 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 2: Now you've been there and done that, and you've been 86 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 2: around coaches. I mean, certainly if you were to get 87 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: one on one with the coaching establis the Chicago Bears, 88 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 2: you know, they feel good and obviously they want to 89 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 2: go out, they want to win every game they can. 90 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 2: But do they honestly believe what the fans believe with 91 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 2: the expectations? Are they have they bought into that hype 92 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 2: or they just kind of calm things down and say, look, 93 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,239 Speaker 2: just just take it one day at a time. Let's 94 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: make sure our quarterback could develop and play in this league. 95 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 2: How do they handle that? 96 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 3: I think one when you're a coaching staff, what you're 97 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 3: trying to do is you're trying to shield your team 98 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 3: from outside expectations. You hope that your expectations in the 99 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 3: building are much higher than anybody would expect outside the building. 100 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 3: And then you try and keep focus on doing the 101 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 3: little things each day to help the team get to 102 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 3: where it wants to be at the end of the season. 103 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 3: And no matter what it looks like, how will it 104 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 3: starts or how poorly it starts, you want them focus 105 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 3: on just keeping proving it at the end of the day. 106 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 3: At the end of the season, we'll see where it 107 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 3: stacks up. But a lot of it is trying to 108 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 3: keep the team humble and hungry as they pursue to 109 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 3: drink well. 110 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 2: And also, you know, you have a guy like Caleb 111 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 2: Williams who basically you performed decently. You know. I don't 112 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 2: know what kind of a grade you give a guy 113 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 2: after twenty snaps. I mean, I don't know what you do. 114 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 2: But you know, does he go around and say, hey, 115 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 2: it's not as hard as I thought it would be. 116 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 2: You know, obviously I'm going to the NFL. They say 117 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 2: it's a big transition from the college game to the 118 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 2: pro game, you know, and I did pretty good, so 119 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 2: maybe maybe it's not as hard as I thought it 120 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 2: would be. I mean, he's in for a root awakening 121 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: once the season actually starts. I right on that. 122 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: I mean it changes, but it doesn't mean it changes 123 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 3: in a negative way. He may be a rare guy 124 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 3: who the game slows down, he gets it and he's 125 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 3: able to hit the ground running, much like CJ. Stroud 126 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 3: was able to do. After a few slow games at 127 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 3: the start of the season, he settled in and we 128 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 3: saw his talent blossom. Every situation is different because a 129 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 3: lot of it is the environment that you're around, coaching, supporting, cast, 130 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 3: defense that you're playing with. All of those things factored 131 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,119 Speaker 3: into the equation. So for Kayleb Williams, it's about him 132 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 3: playing his game and the Bears helping him play his 133 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 3: game but making sure he has the right stuff around 134 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 3: him and by not asking him to do too much 135 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 3: before he's ready. If they do that, they have a 136 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 3: great chance for him to be a very productive Ricky player. 137 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 3: And if he's productive, this offense hasn't enough talent where 138 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 3: they're gonna win. 139 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm an outsider looking in and I'm saying 140 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: right now they would have been better off losing that game. 141 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 2: Am I crazy for saying that? Because they win the game? 142 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 2: Right now, what it does? The only thing that helps 143 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 2: is ticket sales. I mean, the box office tomorrow morning 144 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 2: will be packed in Chicago saying, hey, we got a 145 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 2: shot right now. Do you see what they did the Buffalo. 146 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,799 Speaker 2: You know, Caleb Williams is great, he's a great player. 147 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 2: If they would have lost that game, you know, the 148 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 2: fan basement, oh always me, here we go again. But 149 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: I think the fact that the only winners yesterday? What 150 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,719 Speaker 2: people are to sell tickets? Am I crazy? 151 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 3: Uh? Yeah? I mean, like certainly they gave them some optimism, 152 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 3: and so if you're the Bears like marketing team, you 153 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 3: sell that, You sell the fact that optimism to hope 154 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 3: that this team is going to be better. They're gonna 155 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 3: be a team that can jump from the bottom to 156 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 3: the top and make some noise happen. You got a quarterback, 157 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 3: you have an offense, this is exciting times in Chicago. 158 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 3: You sell all of those things and then you just 159 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 3: kind of figure out what it looks like. 160 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: All right, you need to talk about winners. Let's talk 161 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: about real winners right now. Winners. I got the gold. 162 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: Let's go to the Olympics and the men's basketball team. 163 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,559 Speaker 2: You know, really and truly, I mean, the big story 164 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 2: would have been if they lost, not not that they won, 165 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 2: because I think they were expected to win and they 166 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 2: should have won. They won ninety eight eighty seven yesterday 167 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 2: over France. That got the gold and hopefully the women 168 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 2: will get the gold today. Yet you know, the big 169 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 2: question in my mind was when they were down seventeen 170 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 2: points to Serbia the other day, where the hell was 171 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: Jason Tatum okay, and I want to know who was personal. 172 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know understand how this guy can't play. 173 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 2: And even the coach, coach Steve Kerr, said, you know, 174 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 2: it was my fault. I was stupid for not putting 175 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 2: him in the lineup. You know, it's the whole big deal. 176 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 2: I don't get it. I mean, I don't understand why 177 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 2: he was on the bench. You're an athlete, you played 178 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 2: the game. I mean, here's a guy who goes on 179 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 2: the Olympic team, the guy who's MVP in the finals 180 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 2: for the Boston Celtics. I get it. It's a great team. 181 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 2: These are the greatest players on earth. You got Curry there, 182 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 2: you got Lebron there, you got Durant there, and they 183 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 2: played great yesterday. But how do you not play Jason Titta? 184 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 2: How does he ride the pine and that game when 185 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 2: you're down seventeen when you need scoring. 186 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I think anyone who watched, not on 187 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 3: the Serby game, but if you watched the France game. 188 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 3: He played against France, and I don't hear the uproar 189 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 3: for people talking about he didn't play enough in the 190 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 3: France game. It's about putting the right pieces in place 191 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 3: to play, and the international game is so much different 192 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 3: than the NBA game, and I respect have a tremendous 193 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 3: amount of respect for Jason Tatum's game and what he is. 194 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 3: But what this team needed. The team needed more role 195 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 3: players to like kind of supplement the stars. And let's 196 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 3: be honest, we didn't expect them to go this way, 197 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 3: but the three best players for USA, Steph Curry, Lebron James, 198 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 3: and Kevin Durant, even at their advanced ages, they were 199 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 3: the ones to get it done, and so you need 200 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 3: to surround them with guys that could do the little things. 201 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 3: And while Jason Tatum is a great one on one 202 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 3: isolation player, he's great within the confines of the Celtics 203 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 3: offense and in the NBA at that moment, on those 204 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 3: stage in the Olympics, he wasn't the perfect fit to 205 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 3: be in the rotation around those guys. And look if 206 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,839 Speaker 3: he comes back in twenty twenty eight, the next time, 207 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 3: the team will be constructed differently, and it may be 208 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 3: built more for him to be the lead player as 209 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 3: opposed to a supporting player, and he may actually play 210 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 3: a better He may play better in a lead role 211 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 3: than a supporting role, and there's nothing wrong with that 212 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: because everybody has different games and different strengths to the game. 213 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 3: But I don't understand the outrage over why Steve Kerr 214 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 3: had to play who he needed to play to have 215 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 3: this team win a gold medal. 216 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 2: No, I hear what you're saying. And obviously a coach 217 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 2: does not have to answer questions like that. He feels 218 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 2: good into the matchup situation and that's what he did. 219 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 2: But after he played, after he did not play against Serbia, 220 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 2: according to reports that he was furious. He walked off 221 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 2: the floor following that win. And get this, his mom, 222 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 2: Now this is embarrassing. I mean, his mom wasn't happy 223 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 2: about it, and she was on X. She posted up 224 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 2: on X for the first time since back since twenty 225 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 2: twenty two. I tell you right now, I don't think 226 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: I'd want my parents to comment about anything I've done 227 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: athletically or any place in the workplace, or even if 228 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 2: I was in school, that I got a grade in school. 229 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 2: I just don't think it's a good thing. I mean, 230 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 2: to have his mom post up on that sort of embarrassing, 231 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 2: don't you think. I mean his mom was saying that she. 232 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 3: Wasn't happy yeah, I mean, I mean it is. And 233 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 3: also this you know what I'm saying, Like, it's kind 234 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 3: of the tough thing for athletes when you play in 235 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 3: an All Star situation, right, so this is nothing more 236 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 3: than like an All Star Game, but on a bigger stage, 237 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 3: bigger platform. Everyone has to sacrifice and everybody can't be 238 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 3: the man in an All Star Game situation. People have 239 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 3: to step back. There's a natural pecking order that emerges 240 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 3: and the hierarchy that we saw Lebron, Steph KD because 241 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 3: when it got down to it and the team really 242 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 3: needed to make plays, the only ones that were really 243 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 3: built for the moments were Lebron, Steph and KD and 244 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 3: those other guys. They came in and they did those things. 245 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 3: But it's different, and Jason Tatum is a young player. 246 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 3: He has to understand like he will have his opportunity. 247 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 3: But look, just like Anthony, David Edwards and some of 248 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 3: these other guys that kind of were rotating through, he'll 249 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 3: get his opportunity. Tyreese Haliburton didn't play in three of 250 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 3: those games. All of these guys are like some of 251 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 3: the best in the world, but when you're on a 252 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 3: team with twelve sometimes you got to make hard decisions 253 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 3: as a coach, and I think Steve kurt made some 254 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 3: hard decisions, but ultimately he got the result that everyone wanted. 255 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 3: The team won another gold medal, and they had to 256 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,079 Speaker 3: do it man in a very gritty fashion. But I 257 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 3: will say this, twenty twenty eight is going to be 258 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 3: harder because the international teams are much better. And if 259 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 3: this is the best that we have right now, when 260 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 3: those guys Steph, KD and Lebron age out, who's going 261 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 3: to be the next set to carry it? Because it 262 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 3: took everything from a group of all time greats to 263 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 3: win it, it's gonna be much difficult. It's gonna be 264 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 3: harder the next summer. 265 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 2: On make a great point because James, Durant and Curry 266 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 2: won't be there in twenty and I'm sure they'll be 267 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 2: in the rocking chair by then. But Kurve, right now, 268 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 2: when you talk about the Olympics and the men's basketball team, 269 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 2: I would have to say this, there's more pressure. There 270 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 2: was more pressure on Steve Kerr than any of the 271 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 2: players because everybody expected them to win. If you lose, well, 272 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 2: this guy was hurt, He wasn't playing well, he missed 273 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 2: a couple of shots, but every blame would have been 274 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 2: on curR the coach. He had four different starting lineups 275 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 2: in the six games of the Olympic team played, but 276 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: basically it was the Big Four. It was James, Durant, 277 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 2: Curry and Joel and beat It and be That was 278 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: the lineup basically that brought them back and the comeback 279 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 2: against Serbia. But I give him a lot of credit 280 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 2: because he did say he quote vote like an idiot 281 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 2: for not playing Tatum in that one game, in that 282 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 2: game against Serbia, so you know, he admitted that. But 283 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 2: I guess he's stuck to his gun saying this is 284 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 2: the lineup, this is the team I need, this is 285 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,080 Speaker 2: the team that I want playing. And obviously it worked 286 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 2: out because they won. So I'm happy they got the gold. 287 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, I think it's a very difficult thing. 288 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 3: And I think anyone who has coached at any level, 289 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 3: wreck ball, anything, sometimes the time gets away from you 290 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 3: right in the heat of the moment. Sometimes you can't 291 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: get to everybody, and you can't coach the game necessarily 292 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 3: to make every player happy. You gotta do what you 293 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 3: gotta do to win the game, and he did that. 294 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 3: They were able to get to win. It is a 295 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 3: very difficult thing that he was trying to navigate. You 296 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 3: hat twelve All Stars, right, I mean twelve of the 297 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 3: best players in the world, and you're trying to get 298 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 3: him in the game, and you're trying to tell someone 299 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 3: who is the man, someone who's a three hundred million 300 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 3: dollar player, Hey man, I got to sit you down. 301 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 3: I got to keep you out the lineup right now. 302 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 3: That's hard for anybody to stomach as a player, and 303 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 3: Jason Tatum will have a hard time. But he also, 304 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 3: like when we talk about team, team requires sacrifice and 305 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 3: if you're really about the team, if you're really about 306 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 3: the gold medal, you got to put your ego to 307 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 3: the side and do what's best for the team. The 308 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 3: true test will be how does Jason Tatum handle this 309 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 3: experience and what does it lead him to do in 310 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 3: the future when it comes to international play and the 311 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 3: national team. Does he pout because he didn't play a 312 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 3: major role this time around, or does he handle it 313 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 3: learn from what Steph kd and Lebron did to guide 314 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 3: this team to the gold medal and then step into 315 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 3: their role in twenty twenty eight and helped the United 316 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 3: States win another gold medal. That will be the key 317 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 3: because if he used it the right way, it can 318 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 3: be a great lesson to help him take his game 319 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 3: to an even higher level. And I know that's hard 320 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: for someone to imagine, who is just coming off of 321 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 3: a dominant performance in the finals where his team won 322 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 3: and he has been celebrated as one of the top 323 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: five or six players in the league. 324 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 2: That's a great point because he was asked about that. 325 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 2: For twenty eighties is where he have to think about it. 326 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 2: He'll be back, he'll play, especially since those big guys 327 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 2: won't be there in twenty eight by one last question, 328 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 2: because I know you ran track at University of North Carolina. 329 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 2: My correct, I think you did? 330 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, yes, yes, I did you know he did? 331 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 2: Noel Liars, Okay, Noel Lyles the American sprinter. He won 332 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 2: a bronze medal and that was in the four by 333 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 2: two hundred I believe that was on third and two 334 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 2: hundred meter and he had one hundred and two degree 335 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 2: temperature at the time, and he tested for COVID. I 336 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 2: want to know this. I want to know like things 337 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 2: that people ask these questions, like really, how don't they 338 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 2: test these guys, you know, prior to a race, if 339 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 2: in fact they're on drug, if they have fever, if 340 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 2: they have COVID, How in the hell did he race 341 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 2: in that race? A with one hundred and two fever 342 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: and B with COVID? I mean, and that's why obviously 343 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 2: he finished with the bronze medal because he should have 344 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 2: won it. That's his game, that's his race, the two 345 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 2: hundred meter. But how do they let him raise? I 346 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 2: don't get it. How did he get by the without 347 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 2: a security but the medical people? 348 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 3: Well, so I don't know because I don't know what 349 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 3: the rules are anymore, like out there out of the 350 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 3: quote unquote pandemic, So I don't know if they changed 351 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 3: the rules again where he had to test and do 352 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 3: all that other stuff like he I mean, did he 353 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 3: test for his own good? Or did he test because 354 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 3: they made all those guys tests? And are their rules 355 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 3: forbidding them from participating? Because if there aren't any rules, 356 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 3: then I mean he's free to kind of do whatever 357 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 3: he wanted to do. When it came to it. It 358 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 3: impacted his play, but his race and performance, but he 359 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 3: was what I would say, also impacted if you're COVID 360 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 3: you have COVID and you already are kind of down 361 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 3: on energy, you probably don't need to do the pre 362 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 3: race theatrics that he did. He an't come out jumping around, 363 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 3: skipping hype man and then at the end of it 364 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 3: get carted off in a wheelchair. And now some of 365 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 3: this because I ran track, Some of this is the 366 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 3: showmanship and the gamesmanship that track athletes exhibit. But man, 367 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 3: if you elected win, if you elect a race, then man, 368 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,959 Speaker 3: you got to put up her shut up, you know, 369 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 3: like you can't then lay around and get carted out 370 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 3: and do all this other stuff that he did after 371 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 3: he lost, Like because to me, he looks he looks silly, 372 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 3: you know, he looks idiotic to put all of that 373 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 3: in a pre race to then lose the way that 374 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 3: he lost after the race. 375 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 2: You know, sometimes it's bravado and sometimes it's just emotion. 376 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 2: I think with him, it's emotion. I give him. 377 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 3: The break. 378 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 2: Was last year he won the one hundred meters World Championship. 379 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 2: He went on a rant then and he went on 380 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 2: the rand about how the NBA says that it's league 381 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 2: is title winners, and he was cold as saying world 382 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 2: champions and this is a direct quote from him. He 383 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 2: says quote world champion of what and that clip went 384 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 2: viral and NBA stars distant on social media, including Team USA. 385 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 2: I would have loved to have been in Paris to 386 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 2: see the relationship between the basketball team Team USA and 387 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 2: obviously him, Noah Lyles and Devin Booker and Kevin Durant 388 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 2: with two of those guys, obviously Durant because he loves 389 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 2: social media. They were dissing this guy just you know, 390 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 2: you gotta calm down just a little bit, and his 391 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: back off just to drop. I love the guy. I 392 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 2: love his athleticism, but maybe it's the emotion I don't know. 393 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's also inauthentic. It's not genuine. So anyone 394 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: watched it, if you have an opportunity to check it, 395 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 3: take a look at the Netflix documentary about the Sprint World, 396 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 3: those guys leading up to it. That's not his natural personality. 397 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 3: He did that to be the face of track. Like 398 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 3: some of those theatrics and emotions and things that he 399 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 3: does is just to command attention so he can be 400 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 3: the face of the sport. It's not who he really is. 401 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 3: And what happens is people get annoyed when you're not 402 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 3: authentic in terms of your performance, your actions, your being. 403 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 3: And that's what's more annoying about Noah laws If like 404 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 3: that's who he is, and people around him, we grew 405 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 3: up with him, knew that he is always kind of 406 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 3: in your face, full of all that bravado. Then you 407 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 3: live with it because we always can deal with someone 408 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 3: who is in our friend's circle who kind of has 409 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 3: that or zips those behaviors. But what you don't like 410 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 3: is someone who really isn't like that, but then they 411 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 3: put on for the cameras, because then it's annoying and 412 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 3: you kind of roll your eyes at him. And that's 413 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 3: why he got the reaction that he got, because most 414 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 3: people would have been sympathetic to him coming down with COVID, 415 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 3: big event, maybe the race of his life, and he's 416 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 3: not able to really do it at one hundred percent. 417 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 3: But because of all the stuff that goes along with 418 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 3: him being him, no one really cared about that.

He said the other day after the practice 464 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 2: and that I think was a joint practice with the 465 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: LA Rams. He said, quote, I don't have a sense 466 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 2: of urgency, all right, And he's going to get seventeen 467 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 2: point nine million this year. CD liber Here's a guy, 468 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 2: basically who had a tremendous year last year. 469 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 3: What did he do? 470 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 2: He led the NFL with one hundred and thirty five 471 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 2: receptions and he ranked second in the league with over 472 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 2: seventeen hundred yards, scoring twelve touchdowns. To me, Bucky Brooks, 473 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 2: to me, the longer he holds out, the more money 474 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 2: Jerry Jones is gonna have to pay as more wide 475 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,360 Speaker 2: receivers get signed. Why is there no urgency for him 476 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 2: to sign this guy? 477 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 3: Look, I can't understand it. It's one of the mysteries 478 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 3: that we have in the league. I don't understand why 479 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 3: Jerry Jones wouldn't sign it. He knows that he needs 480 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 3: his number one receiver. He knows that he needs to 481 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:44,719 Speaker 3: come in, he needs to make sure that he has 482 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 3: the right weapons around Dak Prescott, particularly if they want 483 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 3: to win this year. For him not to be signed already, 484 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 3: to me, is really baffling. I don't I don't understand it. 485 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 3: I'll never understand it. I don't really understand how the 486 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 3: Cowboys go about doing business. I know they like standing 487 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 3: that in the headlines, but this doesn't make any sense. 488 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 3: If I'm Mike McCarthy, if I'm Dak Prescott, I'm just 489 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 3: annoyed because it's another distraction that will prevent them from 490 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 3: doing what they want to do and what they want 491 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 3: to accomplish the season. 492 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 2: You know, you made a great point there, because they 493 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 2: want to be in the public eye. I think he's 494 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 2: gonna wait, wait, wait, Jerry Jones, and then violent if 495 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 2: I he'll break down, He'll sign them, will sign it 496 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 2: for big bucks so the Dallas Cowboys can get some 497 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 2: great notoriety and get the pub that he wants. Because, 498 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 2: let's face it, they may be and they call themselves 499 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 2: America's team. 500 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 3: They are. 501 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 2: I mean, they probably are the most popular team in 502 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 2: the NFL that has done nothing for like twenty five years, right, 503 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 2: But they have done anything since nineteen ninety five that 504 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 2: won a championship back then, right, And I said, remember 505 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 2: night and no, remember twenty nineteen, that's when Ezekiel Elliott 506 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 2: missed all of camp and he held out and he trained. 507 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 2: I think he trained in Mexico that year. So I 508 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 2: mean this is like a review, a preview of a review. 509 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 2: So what happens with guys that play for the Dallas Cowboys. 510 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, like it's another thing in an ideal world. 511 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 3: When you get the training camp, you want all you 512 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,719 Speaker 3: guys there. You want them to get to work because 513 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,959 Speaker 3: so much of being successful is about chemistry and continuity 514 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 3: and being able to put it together and making sure 515 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,719 Speaker 3: all of the pieces of the puzzle fit. And when 516 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,719 Speaker 3: you don't get that, it's annoying. It's tough, you know, 517 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 3: it's tough to overcome that lack of cohesion and the 518 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 3: fact that, look, the Cowboys have known that this was 519 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 3: coming up. They known they needed to get their wide 520 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 3: receiver sign and they haven't done it. It's problematic because 521 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 3: this team cannot play without CD Lamb on the perimeter. 522 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 3: That's just the way they're constructed. They don't have another 523 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 3: viable option as a lead receiver, and if he's not there, 524 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 3: it's gonna be disastrous for the offense. Won't show up 525 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 3: in preseason, and it may not show up in the 526 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 3: early parts of the regular season, but it will show 527 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 3: up when they start to play against some of those 528 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 3: top teams. When you think about the Philadelphia Eagles and 529 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 3: what they have and how they can score points in 530 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 3: a variety of ways with the weapons and the firepower 531 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 3: on the perimeter, the Cowboys can't match that, and it 532 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 3: just puts an a tremendous amount of pressure on the 533 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 3: other parts of their team to have to play at 534 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 3: a high level if Ceedee Lamb is. 535 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 2: Not there, and it really takes one player to kind 536 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 2: of set the mark. And I think it was justin Jefferson, 537 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 2: basically the guy in the Vikings, the receiver who basically 538 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: got it done a four year deal for one hundred 539 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 2: and forty million, and you talk about the Eagles got 540 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 2: Aj Brown three year deal with thirty two mili. So 541 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 2: I mean, this is the money that's out there. And 542 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 2: Cde Lambs stats with one hundred and thirty five receptions 543 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 2: last year, you got to put them up there. But 544 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 2: again we talked about this before. Just because you do 545 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 2: the same job as someone else doesn't mean you're going 546 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 2: to make the same money or more than that person. 547 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 2: That's just the way it is in life, right. I mean, 548 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 2: there are many news anchors on TV and they all 549 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 2: don't get the same amount of money, although they all 550 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 2: do the same job. 551 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's all different. But when you get 552 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 3: to a certain level, right, what happens is the money 553 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 3: is the money, But really the money is a sign 554 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 3: of how much the team values and respects you. And 555 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 3: if you surveyed yourself, surveyed the league, and you believe 556 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 3: that you're the best receiver in the league, you want 557 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 3: to be compensated as such. And with the flurry of 558 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 3: wide receiver deals that have kind of come off to 559 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 3: market over the course of the offseason, Ceedee Lambers patiently 560 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 3: sat and wait and watch the market go up. He's 561 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 3: going to want to be paid at the top of 562 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 3: the food chain. And Jerry Jones and those guys know that. 563 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 3: They understand that, and they have to figure out a 564 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 3: way to not only take care of him, but they 565 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 3: have to take care of Dak Prescott and Michael Parsons. 566 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 3: These are things that you should be proactive about, not reactive. 567 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 3: The Cowboys should have had all this stuff locked down 568 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 3: months ago, and for the quarterback Prescott and some of 569 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 3: the others man, they should have been on this early 570 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 3: so you don't end up in a situation where you 571 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 3: have three players who need to get paid, and three 572 00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 3: players who are going to command instrumented amount amount of 573 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 3: money and they're going to really anchor or be at 574 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,199 Speaker 3: albatross around your neck when it comes to how you 575 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 3: build out your team from a salary cap standpoint. 576 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 2: You're exactly right, Bucket brooks Andy Ferman, Fox Sports on 577 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 2: the have Fox Sports ready and I'll coming up next 578 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 2: on Fox Live from the Tyraq dot com studios.

As he said earlier this week, 642 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 2: he has no reason to apologize, as he continued to 643 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 2: deny having any knowledge of the impermissible scouting operation that 644 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 2: triggered this NCAA investigation of the University of Michigan football 645 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 2: program during that championship run last year. And Bucky, before 646 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 2: we get involved about this deal, if you believe him 647 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 2: or not, let's take a listen to the coach. 648 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 7: Never lie, never cheat, never steal. I was raised with 649 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 7: that lesson. I have raised my family on that lesson. 650 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 7: I have preached that lesson to the teams that I've coached. 651 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 7: No one's perfect if you stumble, you apologize, and you 652 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 7: make it right today. 653 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 3: I do not apologize. 654 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 7: I did not participate, was not aware nor complicit in 655 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 7: those set allegations. So for me, it's back to work, 656 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 7: an attack with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind. 657 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 2: All right, this coach Jim Harba now with the LA charges, 658 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 2: and I would say this, maybe he didn't know, but 659 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 2: as a head coach, I think you're responsible for the 660 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 2: entire program. 661 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 3: Agreed, you are responsible for the entire program. But if 662 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 3: he didn't, I would say, proactively participate in those things. 663 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 3: I do understand why we take such a defined stance. 664 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 3: If Connor Standing's worked and operated on his own, on 665 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 3: his own and did his own thing when it came 666 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 3: to scouting and stealing signs in those things, and Jim 667 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 3: Harborrough did not sign off on that, Yeah, I do 668 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 3: understand him taking the defined stance because even though people 669 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 3: are on your watch and under your command, and you're 670 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 3: responsible for their actions when it comes to his reputation 671 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 3: and character, I do understand him standing up and taking 672 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 3: such a defined stance because you want to protect that 673 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 3: because all you have is your name. 674 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 2: I believe him. I'm a big fan of Jim Habbar. 675 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 2: I like the guy. Maybe I'm biased here. I probably 676 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 2: am biased here, but again, I mean, you're to see 677 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 2: of your operation, you have to know everything that's going 678 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 2: on within the organization. There's so many people that were involved. 679 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 2: It's hard to even fathom that he didn't know what 680 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 2: was going on. But I'm gonna give you that a 681 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 2: benefit of the doubt because he is pretty defiant here. 682 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 2: He's pretty aggressive saying that he didn't know. However, the 683 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 2: University of Michigan right now, they can face level one 684 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 2: NCAA violations and this is like the most serious the 685 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 2: association could levy to any individual. But he's free, and 686 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 2: he's gonna be free for five years. So if he 687 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 2: coaches the charges for five years and comes back to 688 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 2: college football, he's okay. He's free and clears. So the 689 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 2: whole thing is screwy because if Michigan gets hit with this, 690 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 2: he walks away, nothing happens to him, but the program 691 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 2: is hurt. And that's It's just something's wrong there. Don't 692 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 2: you think something something stinks in that whole situation. 693 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 3: Oh, I mean, I mean, like Michigan is left holding 694 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 3: the bag. The University of Michigan is left holding the bag. 695 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 3: And it's not only Jim Harbar, but Sharon Morgat pinched 696 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 3: with some allegations and some violations. Uh, there's some others 697 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 3: within the program who are no longer there who were 698 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 3: sanctioned for their role in this entire thing and some 699 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 3: of the other stuff that they've been done. So yeah, 700 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 3: it leaves a little bit of a smudge on Michigan. 701 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 3: But let's be honest, Mike, We've seen a lot of teams, 702 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 3: a lot of universities, a lot of the top teams 703 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 3: get deemed and pinched for little things around that, and 704 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 3: it doesn't change or diminish like their accomplishments, but it 705 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 3: certainly just kind of puts like that that that cloud, right, 706 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,959 Speaker 3: that cloud of doubt or that that that it just 707 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 3: it just tarnishes what was a wonderful accomplishment for the 708 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 3: Michigan mover raines last year. 709 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 2: No, no doubt, right, and it's gonna be like a 710 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 2: cloud over him, you know, talk about legacy, you know, 711 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 2: throughout his career. I mean, just like as successful as 712 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick was, the one of the greatest, if not 713 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 2: the greatest coach NFL history. You know, the deflate gate 714 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 2: and the scouting opponents. You know, really and truly, I 715 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,719 Speaker 2: don't think that affects his his trophies that he's won, 716 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 2: super Bowls, that he's won. But there are people that 717 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 2: will say that quote he was a cheat, you know, 718 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 2: and you just you can't get rid of that. That's 719 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 2: just one of those things that will follow you, and 720 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 2: it has followed him. They're gonna say, wait, you know 721 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 2: he wanted Stanford. You know, he wanted San Diego State 722 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 2: Universe san Diego. So I said, maybe he did it 723 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 2: back there too. Maybe that's how we won, and that's 724 00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 2: not really fair, but that's what happens. 725 00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 3: That is what happens. But I think for people who 726 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 3: paid attention while he was at Stanford and some of 727 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,919 Speaker 3: those other places, like there was never any there weren't 728 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 3: any allegations of improprieties when it came to that kind 729 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 3: of stuff. Like he's always appeared to be above board. 730 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 3: He found his success in the margins in my mind, 731 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 3: when it came to physicality, toughness in an old school approach. 732 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 3: Now I would say this like signs stealing and the 733 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:54,320 Speaker 3: way that this has been reported, Yeah, like it's ugly 734 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 3: when it comes to them gaining a competitive advantage. There's 735 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 3: some part of like trying to steal signs in game, 736 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 3: that's gamesmanship, but what they did or what they were 737 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 3: alleged to do, like goes beyond that. So I'm looking 738 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 3: forward to all of it coming out. I know the 739 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 3: notice of allegations and all that stuff has come out, 740 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 3: but I'm looking forward to really what kind of make 741 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,919 Speaker 3: Saying says about it all, because he's the one who 742 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 3: knows if he was directed to do the things he 743 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 3: did or if he went out on his own and 744 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 3: did those things in an effort to elevate himself within 745 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 3: the program. 746 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 2: That's the key right there, and it's going to come out, 747 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 2: come out real soon. We'll see what happens. And uh 748 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 2: feel bait for the kids playing football for Michigan if 749 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 2: they get to put on some portbait probation and they 750 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 2: can't go to a tournament this Year's that's what stinks. Really, 751 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 2: that's the bottom line right there. He's Bucky Brooks. I'm 752 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,439 Speaker 2: Andy Furman. We are Fox Sports Sunday and Fox Sports Ready, 753 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 2: how you want answers? You want answers well as Bucky. 754 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:51,399 Speaker 2: It's freaking next as Bucky Right around the corner. Yes, 755 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 2: that's coming right out. He's Bucky Brooks. I'm Andy Firmerwell 756 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday on Fox Sports. Ready and we'll alyve 757 00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 2: from the Tirack dot com studio. So let's get it going. Yes, Bucky, 758 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 2: right now, let's do it. Here we go A. I 759 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 2: want to know, Bucky Brooks, the difference between joint practices 760 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 2: between teams and preseason NFL games, the advantages and disadvantages 761 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 2: between both. 762 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:18,800 Speaker 3: Well, the advantages of joint practices is you get the 763 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 3: increase intensity, you get the physicality, but you get it 764 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 3: in a controlled environment because the coaches control when the 765 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 3: play's over, and so you have an opportunity to run 766 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,320 Speaker 3: all of your team scrimmaging, all of that other stuff, 767 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 3: but your quarterback is not exposed to his because the 768 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 3: quarterback is off limits. The advantages from a team standpoint is, 769 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 3: I get the basically a preseason game intensity, a preseason 770 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:47,800 Speaker 3: game evaluation, without the risk of my quarterback being knocked around. 771 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 3: That's why they favorite the cons is it's practice. It's 772 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 3: still not a quote unquote full game. You get some 773 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 3: of the competitiveness in those things, but it's still not 774 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 3: like the bright lights in the big stage, but it 775 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 3: gives you enough where you can make solid determinations on 776 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 3: your first team, and then it allows you to play 777 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 3: your second and third teamers during the preseason game. 778 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 2: An additional question there on the joint practices, because the 779 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals have two of them this year, with Indianapolis 780 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 2: and with the Chicago Bears. Do they keep score and 781 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 2: is there a clock or what do they do? 782 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,959 Speaker 3: Now, you don't keep scoring. You just go through different situations. 783 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 3: Like so before a period, they will announce, Hey, this 784 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 3: is third down situation. So you go through all the 785 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:33,879 Speaker 3: random third down scenarios. It'd be some third and four 786 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 3: to six yard players, some third and seven plus yard plays, 787 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 3: some third and tens. So you get the work and 788 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 3: it's scripted out in terms of we script out the situation, 789 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 3: but neither team knows exactly what the other team is 790 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:48,320 Speaker 3: going to do. It gives you an opportunity to work, 791 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 3: but it works in a structured fashion as opposed to 792 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 3: the randomness of the game. 793 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 2: As always, I know you'd clear that up for us 794 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 2: because I appreciate that. Now we move on to the Olympics. 795 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 2: I'm gonna talk about break dancing, which is an all sport. 796 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,360 Speaker 2: And I asked you, Bucky Brooks, is breakdancing a sport? 797 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 3: I would say no, but it's in the Olympics, so 798 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 3: I would consider it. I had no idea that there 799 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 3: was a sport until yesterday when someone made mention of it. Yeah, 800 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 3: but it's not something that I would say that I 801 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 3: knew that it was a sport. 802 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: Now. 803 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 2: I saw some of the contestants in breakdancing, and I'm 804 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:27,160 Speaker 2: not I'm the furthest thing from an athlete. I mean know, 805 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 2: I'm coordinated, but I'm not an athlete. And I saw 806 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 2: there was one woman there and I promise you give 807 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 2: me a couple of shots of alcohol. I could have 808 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 2: done what she did, really, I mean it was embarrassing 809 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 2: what she did. She just laid on the floor and 810 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 2: kind of spun around. I could do that. I really can. 811 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 2: And they want to call that breakdancing, that's fine. 812 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 3: You might be able to do it. I don't know 813 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 3: if anyone wants to see it, though, Andy, No, like, 814 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 3: you may be able to do it. I don't doubt 815 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 3: that you can do it, but I don't know if 816 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 3: anyone wants to sign up to see that. 817 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 2: You're exactly right. All right, let's talk about the Olympics. 818 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 2: Now on your mind, maybe the biggest disappointments and the 819 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 2: biggest I guess accomplish. Smith's in your mind. 820 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 8: If the watching the Olympics, the biggest disappointment would be 821 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 8: track and field, the four oar one team, the four 822 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 8: about one hundred relay team not being able to get 823 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 8: it done like that was a huge disappointment. 824 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 3: It continues to trend where they haven't been able to 825 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 3: just take advantage of a sport that they should be 826 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 3: able to dominate. So that's a huge disappointment. I would 827 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 3: say some of my excitement over the course of the Olympics, 828 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 3: I'm really excited about, like the women's four bar one team. 829 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 3: I'm excited about the women's soccer team pulling it off 830 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 3: because that was a bit of redemption after faltering in 831 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 3: the World Cup stage, the women were able to win 832 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 3: a gold medal. It's a new era within women's soccer, 833 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 3: and so they deserve credit for being able to bounce back. 834 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:44,600 Speaker 3: And look, I'm gonna say this, and everyone expected the 835 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 3: basketball team to win, but for them to win the 836 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 3: way they had to win against Serbia and Joker and 837 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 3: Joker being regarded as maybe the best player in the world. 838 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 3: I give them a ton of credit because it's certainly 839 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 3: it's a lot harder with the pressure that we put 840 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,239 Speaker 3: on the dream team to be able to get it 841 00:39:58,280 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 3: done every time. 842 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 2: Well said, Okay, why is baseball not an Olympic sport. 843 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,719 Speaker 2: It's gonna be an Olympic sport in LA in twenty 844 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 2: twenty eight, But why isn't it an Olympic sport. 845 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 3: I don't know. It's been an Olympic sport in the past. 846 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 3: I don't know why it's not one now. But it's, uh, 847 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 3: it's kind of weird to kind of see that not 848 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 3: play out like it should be an Olympic sport. I 849 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 3: would be excited to see it play out. But what 850 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 3: they have to do is they're gonna have to play 851 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 3: the major The MLB guys are gonna have to come 852 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 3: because if not, it's not gonna they're not gonna be 853 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 3: able to win, not gonna be able to get it done. 854 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, there might be a fight about that because they're 855 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 2: gonna have to leave their teams in mid season for 856 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 2: two weeks and that'll be rough. I mean, I'm major 857 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 2: League Baseball. So we'll see what happens there. But I 858 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 2: want to see baseball come back. But we'll do that, 859 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:38,439 Speaker 2: all right, Bucky Brooks, Andy Furman. Year one was good 860 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 2: for some.

I'm gonna tell 875 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 2: you why I love Fridays, because Friday is today that 876 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 2: I get the Bucky Brooks experience. That's today that your 877 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 2: column comes up on NFL dot com. They know Bucky Brooks. 878 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 2: The public knows Bucket Brooks as a player, as a coach, 879 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,480 Speaker 2: as a scout. But on Fridays you're a writer, and 880 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 2: one hell of a writer. You are NFL dot com. 881 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,080 Speaker 2: You go to that website and you look at writers. 882 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 2: You scroll down, you see his beautiful face and you 883 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 2: read what he has to write. And honestly, what you 884 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 2: have written over the last months been tremendous. I don't 885 00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 2: know where your police ideas from with their great a 886 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 2: lot of research and this year, this week he wrote about, 887 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 2: you know, first year coaches in the NFL. And before 888 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 2: we get all that, I'm going to ask you basically, 889 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 2: you know how tough is it to be a rookie coach, 890 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 2: first year coach in the NFL, Because I've seen it firsthand, 891 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 2: not that I have a player, but I've seen it, 892 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 2: you know, from a distance, somewhat of a distance, I guess. 893 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,760 Speaker 2: You know, these new coaches come in and they're challenged 894 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 2: and tested by veteran players. It's tough, it really is. 895 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:25,879 Speaker 3: It is. It is a tough deal. And so you've 896 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 3: got to command of respect and a few different ways 897 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 3: that that respect is earned. It's earned through like your knowledge, 898 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 3: in terms of what you can show them. It makes 899 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 3: sense your teaching ability. You're able to kind of put 900 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 3: the pieces of the puzzle together in a coherent manner 901 00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,840 Speaker 3: where they're like, Okay, that resonates, I can do that, coach. 902 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 3: Or you're accomplished in terms of your expertise, and on 903 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 3: one side of the ball, you come well established with 904 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 3: a great reputation, and as soon as they see you 905 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 3: and meet you, they can tell that you have it 906 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 3: that you have to in fact to help them answer 907 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,760 Speaker 3: the problems that will arise over the course of the game. 908 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 3: And so it's one of those things is that you 909 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 3: know that the relationship that you have to keep nurturing 910 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,480 Speaker 3: and building, and your first time in it, it's not 911 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 3: about the x's and o's. It's really about the connectivity 912 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 3: that you have with the team and then hoping that 913 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 3: because of your connectivity they buy into the x's and 914 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 3: o's that you bring. 915 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 2: How important is it that you must have been a 916 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 2: player prior to becoming a coach in any position, because 917 00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 2: if you're going to tell me how to block on 918 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 2: the line, you never played the game, I'm go home 919 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 2: and send in myself. Scratch my head, what does he know? 920 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 2: He never played the game, He's never been there done that. 921 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 2: So how important is it to be a player? Not 922 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 2: a tremendous player. I mean, you know Bill Belichick, I 923 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 2: guess play he was on a roster, wasn't a great player, 924 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,320 Speaker 2: but he was a great coach, a great defensive coach. 925 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 2: But still, in all I mean, how important is it 926 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 2: to have played the game? 927 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 3: I would say that it's not the most important thing. 928 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 3: I would say that players, particularly in the NFL, they 929 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 3: value you guys that play, but they value it only 930 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 3: as far as you're able to show them how to 931 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 3: become better players. Meaning, if you're a former player, you're 932 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,800 Speaker 3: teaching skills have to be on par with others because 933 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,839 Speaker 3: you still have to be able to show me how 934 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:15,319 Speaker 3: to play at a high level. So you need to 935 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 3: be able to take all of those experiences that you 936 00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 3: may have had as a player and spin them together 937 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 3: and make it very easily digestible for aspiring players to 938 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 3: be able to play really well. So it's not guarantee, 939 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 3: but there's a little bit of respect that you give 940 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 3: because you're in the fraternity. You know how hard it 941 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,439 Speaker 3: is to succeed between the lines, and so players will 942 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,960 Speaker 3: always give those guys respect. But to hold on to 943 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 3: the respect. You better have some knowledge and wisdom and 944 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:41,760 Speaker 3: some instructional ability. 945 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 2: You know, I look at coaching basically pistically the NFL. 946 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,400 Speaker 2: Of course that is somewhat of the pe the principle 947 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 2: in teaching, you could be a tremendous teacher in classroom teacher, 948 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 2: but that will not make you a great principal. You know, 949 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,399 Speaker 2: if you move up from a teacher to a prison, 950 00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 2: you be a great teacher, you relate well with the kids, 951 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,799 Speaker 2: with this students, whatever it may be, and they put 952 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:03,719 Speaker 2: you as an administrator as a principal, you may not 953 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 2: be a great principal. So the same thing that you 954 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 2: can be a great player, you'd be a great line coach. 955 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:11,439 Speaker 2: You could be a great position coach, does not make 956 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 2: you become a great head coach. And you have probably 957 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 2: seen many of those people who have been assistants in 958 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 2: line coaches whatever the back coaches fail as head coaches. 959 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's a different seal set, right. So 960 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 3: you leading a small group as opposed team and tary group, 961 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 3: and being a head coach is so much about organizing, 962 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:33,839 Speaker 3: getting everyone on the same page. And it's not only 963 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,879 Speaker 3: doing that, but it's having division to know where your 964 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:38,640 Speaker 3: team is and where you wanted to go, but to 965 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:41,879 Speaker 3: be able to tell the coaches and the players, here's 966 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 3: how we're going to get there. A lot of what 967 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 3: head coaches have to do is they have to anticipate 968 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 3: problems and solve them ahead of time, so when they 969 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 3: stand in front of the team and something comes up, 970 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 3: they can calmly and coolly say, hey, here's how we're 971 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 3: going to attack it. You spend a lot of your 972 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 3: time thinking about the what ifs as opposed to the 973 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 3: what is right now, and the best coaches have the 974 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 3: ability to really have the answers to the tests when 975 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,359 Speaker 3: they need them, and that's what players want. Players are 976 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 3: looking to the coaches to be problem solvers. When a 977 00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 3: problem comes up, can my head coach solve it so 978 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 3: we can continue to have success. That's what comes down 979 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 3: to and so a lot of your credibility hinges on 980 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:24,399 Speaker 3: your ability to answer those questions in tough contests. 981 00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 2: I remember years ago, Boomer Sias was quarterback in the 982 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals and the quarterback coach was Dana Bible, And 983 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 2: I even looked at it and said to myself, how 984 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 2: could Dana Bible tell Boomers Sias and what to do? 985 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 2: What is he a compliment? What has he done? And 986 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 2: I still today this day believe that there was some 987 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:48,359 Speaker 2: sort of a rift between Bible between Boomer and by 988 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 2: not Bible and Boomer, but Boomer and Bible on my 989 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,839 Speaker 2: way off face and I see I had seen that 990 00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 2: going to practice. I mean, I just the way Boomer 991 00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 2: handled it, the way he kind of looked at him, 992 00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:03,400 Speaker 2: the way he would not listen take direction from him. 993 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:05,439 Speaker 2: Am I off base? And that I just don't think 994 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:10,400 Speaker 2: that Boomer size and respected taking advice from a Dana Bible. 995 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,000 Speaker 3: Maybe without seeing that the situation not being their firsthand. 996 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 3: I mean, there could be something to that, you know. 997 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 3: It just depends on that relationship, but also depends on 998 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 3: the coaching style and how they Dana Bib will treat 999 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:26,200 Speaker 3: Boomer like, I mean, what was that relationship in communication? 1000 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,839 Speaker 3: Like because of the communication is on part, you can 1001 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 3: naturally come to a mutual level of respect where you 1002 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 3: may not be on the same page on everything, but 1003 00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:39,400 Speaker 3: you respect your coach enough that you listen to your 1004 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 3: byebies whish is and you give your best in attempting 1005 00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 3: to do whatever it is he's asking you to do. 1006 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:49,280 Speaker 3: But that comes from relationships, and relationships are more important 1007 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:50,759 Speaker 3: than a lot of the other stuff that we talked 1008 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:51,719 Speaker 3: about when it comes to ball. 1009 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 2: Okay, I went off face a little bit here. I 1010 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:55,879 Speaker 2: went a little bit of tangent here because you wrote 1011 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 2: about this and this is great. This is a great 1012 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 2: stat Six of the past seven years except the year 1013 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 2: twenty twenty one, there's been at least one coach that 1014 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 2: is one of the division title in year one. That is 1015 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 2: a super statistic. I mean unbelieved, it really is. And 1016 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,399 Speaker 2: you ranked I guess the great eight. And we got 1017 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 2: eight coaches that are coming in this year, first year coaches, 1018 00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:20,239 Speaker 2: and we'll start with number eight. So I guess number 1019 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,960 Speaker 2: eight in your mind is the guy that has really 1020 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 2: the least amount of opportunity at least chance to win 1021 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 2: a division title this year. Am I correct with that? 1022 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 3: Well? Yeah, Dave Canalis, like Dave Danallison, here's a tough 1023 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 3: situation in Carolina. He has a former number one overall 1024 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:38,880 Speaker 3: pick in Bryce Young, but Bryce Young overwhelmed last season, 1025 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,360 Speaker 3: so he has to come and repair Bryce Young's confidence 1026 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 3: while building an offense that will support Bryce Young as 1027 00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 3: he's maturing into a franchise quarterback and then they got 1028 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 3: to continue to get good play from their defense. And 1029 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 3: when you look at the roster, it's not one that 1030 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:55,839 Speaker 3: is loaded with talent, but there are some pieces in place, 1031 00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:57,279 Speaker 3: and they've made some moves of the course of the 1032 00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:00,919 Speaker 3: off season under new general manager Dan Morgan. But look, 1033 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 3: no one has any expectation that this team is going 1034 00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:04,759 Speaker 3: to go from worse to first. They're gonna be at 1035 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 3: the top of division when the season ends. 1036 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:12,240 Speaker 2: Okay, you mentioned in your story on Friday that Canal 1037 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 2: has basically helped resurrect the careers of Baker Mayfield and 1038 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,800 Speaker 2: Gino Smith. You know, I have a problem with coaches 1039 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:24,799 Speaker 2: taking credit for a player's success. A player goes out there, 1040 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 2: they practice, they do what they gotta do, and we'll 1041 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 2: see what happens with Bryce Young obviously, and maybe if 1042 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 2: Bryce Young comes around, and I think Bryce Young will 1043 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,879 Speaker 2: do well in the National Football League, But to give 1044 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,920 Speaker 2: a coach credit for Baker Mayfield and Gino Smith and 1045 00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:40,560 Speaker 2: just it bugs me a little bit. I mean, am 1046 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 2: I off based on that a little bit? 1047 00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 3: Because coaches do matter. I mean, it's not just a 1048 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:47,480 Speaker 3: players game. Players don't come over with their own game 1049 00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:49,839 Speaker 3: plans and just do whatever they want to do. A 1050 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 3: good coach puts a player in a position to make plays, 1051 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,400 Speaker 3: they'll evaluate their talent, they'll look at what they can do, 1052 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 3: and they're trying to put them in a situation that 1053 00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 3: always tilts the field in their favor. That's good coaching. 1054 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 3: So the coach is like, when I look at Gino 1055 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:06,239 Speaker 3: Smith and I look at what Baker Mayfield was able 1056 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 3: to accomplish Gino Smith, maybe you could take some issue 1057 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:13,760 Speaker 3: with him being able to say a he elevated Gino, 1058 00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 3: but he was the position coach. He was a quarterback coach, 1059 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 3: but as the offensive coordinator, play caller, he absolutely played 1060 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,480 Speaker 3: a huge role in why Baker Mayfield was successful. 1061 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about your guy right now. Out of 1062 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 2: the University of North Carolina, Drake may Drake made a 1063 00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 2: number three overall picking the draft last year for the 1064 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 2: New England Patriots. He entered the game. The Patriots beat 1065 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,880 Speaker 2: the Carolina Panthers on Thursday night, seventeen to three. He 1066 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,839 Speaker 2: entered the game. It was actually the second series. He 1067 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:42,799 Speaker 2: followed a Jacoby Brissett. He had played seven snaps and 1068 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:45,399 Speaker 2: went down this way three runs, three passes, one full 1069 00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:48,360 Speaker 2: star penalty, two of the passes with screens, the first 1070 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,400 Speaker 2: was a thirteen yardit to Antonio Gibson on third and 1071 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 2: twelve and he finished two three for nineteen yards. Okay, 1072 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:56,840 Speaker 2: why do I bring that up? Because you talk about 1073 00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:00,319 Speaker 2: the coach ranked seventh, and that's the New England Patriots coach, 1074 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 2: first year Gerard Mayo, and he's following a legend, which 1075 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:04,480 Speaker 2: makes it even tougher. 1076 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:08,799 Speaker 3: I think, yeah, it absolutely makes it tougher because no 1077 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,319 Speaker 3: matter what people may have thought about Bill Belichick at 1078 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 3: the end of his senior he'll go down as the 1079 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,239 Speaker 3: greatest of all time based on the way that he 1080 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 3: won and won at a high level. That Patriots dynasty 1081 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:22,320 Speaker 3: was real. Jeremeyo steps into that, but he steps into 1082 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 3: it replacing the legend, even though he was the team 1083 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 3: had fallen off the last few years without a playoff appearance. 1084 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,680 Speaker 3: But he knows what it should look like. He knows 1085 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 3: the plan. He's seen the plan work successfully in New England. 1086 00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 3: He hasn't really been exposed to another plan. He will 1087 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 3: implement that, but try and implement it with his own 1088 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 3: spin on it because of his style. But he can 1089 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 3: be successful. I just don't think he has the talent 1090 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,600 Speaker 3: right now to be successful. But I expect this defense 1091 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,880 Speaker 3: to continue to play lights out like they've been playing, 1092 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,759 Speaker 3: and then the offense will splutter along until the young 1093 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:53,919 Speaker 3: quarterback can figure it out. 1094 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 2: Okay, let's talk about your guy, Drake May. I mean, 1095 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:58,600 Speaker 2: he's gonna be the man, and he's gonna be starting 1096 00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:00,680 Speaker 2: quarterback there. I think he will. He's a quarterback of 1097 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:02,960 Speaker 2: the future. I would think, not your Kobe Prissett. 1098 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 3: I mean, at some point he will be there. I 1099 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:07,360 Speaker 3: don't think there's a rush to put him on the field. 1100 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:11,920 Speaker 3: Elliott Wolfe the general manager for the Patriots, son of 1101 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 3: Ron wolf who Hall of Famer in Green Bay where 1102 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 3: they started the quarterback development system where they would take 1103 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 3: young quarterbacks, draft him and just kind of park him 1104 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,240 Speaker 3: on the bench for a while until they're ready to play. 1105 00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:25,839 Speaker 3: He's seen that, he's seen that work successfully, from Aaron 1106 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,920 Speaker 3: Rodgers to Bredforth, I mean, from Brefort to Aaron Rodgers 1107 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:31,319 Speaker 3: to now Jordan Love. Why wouldn't he try to take 1108 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 3: some of that and just give Drake May as much 1109 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 3: time as his need to acclimate to the league. 1110 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:38,800 Speaker 2: Right, And I think that and maybe I pay you 1111 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 2: off face, but you got to believe that management and 1112 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 2: ownership of the New England Patriots. I don't think they 1113 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 2: expect much this year. I mean, this team probably will 1114 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 2: not make the playoffs again, and I don't think they'll 1115 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:49,279 Speaker 2: be too disappointed. So they're going to give him a 1116 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:50,360 Speaker 2: lot of rope, don't you think. 1117 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know if anybody ever is into the 1118 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 3: league expect him to get creamed. I don't know if 1119 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,239 Speaker 3: any owner that says, oh, it's okay if we go 1120 00:52:57,320 --> 00:53:00,680 Speaker 3: three and fourteen and don't worry about it building stuff. 1121 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 3: The persson is still on to win. You just got 1122 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 3: to figure out how to win with what you have 1123 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,319 Speaker 3: until you can win with what you want and what 1124 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 3: you need to get. 1125 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 2: M hmm, Well, I hear what you, Sam. I mean, 1126 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:12,359 Speaker 2: obviously you want to win, but I think realistically it's 1127 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:13,799 Speaker 2: gonna be tough to win. Although I tell you what 1128 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,560 Speaker 2: I think. Brian Callahan, you ranked the number six as 1129 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:19,319 Speaker 2: the first year coach the Tennessee Titans. I remember him 1130 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 2: well in Cincinnati. I think there's a really good shot 1131 00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 2: that they could do something because they had back to 1132 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:27,720 Speaker 2: back losing seasons, double digit lost seasons for the second 1133 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:30,040 Speaker 2: consecutive year in Tennessee, which is kind of strange, but 1134 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 2: I think they could get it done with Callahan, although 1135 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:37,320 Speaker 2: I still question the second year quarterback Will Levice at quarterback. 1136 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:39,879 Speaker 2: I mean still in all I think that he's got 1137 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,759 Speaker 2: a good staff and that could kind of count the 1138 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 2: rack to talent or lack thereof on that ball club. 1139 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean they have some talent, They have some 1140 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 3: veteran players, but to me, they kind of strike me 1141 00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 3: as an older team and can you get everybody to 1142 00:53:57,760 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 3: get on the same page because some of the guys 1143 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 3: they signed and then lake Quandre Diggs, Jamal Adams. You know, 1144 00:54:03,640 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 3: they brought some of those guys over to kind of help, 1145 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 3: but they're they're building, but they're an older crew, but 1146 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 3: that that experience could help them if they get off 1147 00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:15,920 Speaker 3: to a solid start. But as you said, it all 1148 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 3: comes down to wild Epson. How will he plays. If 1149 00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:19,440 Speaker 3: he plays well, then they gonna have a shot. But 1150 00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 3: if he doesn't, it's gonna be an issue because everyone 1151 00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 3: is depended upon him to make it happen, and you know, 1152 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:30,080 Speaker 3: as he goes, the team will go. 1153 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:34,760 Speaker 2: How much will the loss of Derrick Henry hurt? Because 1154 00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:38,359 Speaker 2: Derrick Henry to me, very similar to maybe said Kwan 1155 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:40,760 Speaker 2: Bokley in New York with the Giants, he was about 1156 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:42,520 Speaker 2: fifty sixty percent of that offense. 1157 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 3: I mean, he's huge part of the offense because they 1158 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 3: ran the football and they were their identity was running 1159 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 3: the ball. How do they get back to that part 1160 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:54,439 Speaker 3: of it? Tony Potler steps in for him, but he's 1161 00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 3: not King Henry, so it looked different. It'd be a 1162 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 3: different type of running game, but it's still going to 1163 00:54:58,320 --> 00:54:59,920 Speaker 3: turn and run the football, all right. 1164 00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:03,760 Speaker 2: So, of these coaches that we talked about right now, 1165 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:06,800 Speaker 2: who do you think has the best chance because this 1166 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:09,880 Speaker 2: some more on your grade eight obviously, but in this 1167 00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,319 Speaker 2: group that we did right now, who do you think 1168 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 2: has the best chance of getting into the play to 1169 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:17,840 Speaker 2: win the division? I mean, obviously playoffs win the division. 1170 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:21,280 Speaker 2: That's two different aims. I said, gonna see. 1171 00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Tennessee potency could have the best shot 1172 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 3: because of those guys we talked about. A team that 1173 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,840 Speaker 3: is more put together. The Titans are more put together 1174 00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 3: than those other teams, and the road to the top 1175 00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:36,200 Speaker 3: it's hard for everybody, but it might be a little 1176 00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:39,280 Speaker 3: They may be able to get busy in this division 1177 00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 3: because they're they're like minded in this division, they may 1178 00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 3: knock each other off, so's it's not a team that 1179 00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:47,440 Speaker 3: wins eleven games to win the division. Maybe ten games. 1180 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:50,319 Speaker 2: All right, we'll continue there. There is Bucky Brooks. I'm 1181 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 2: Andy Furrman.

We'll get to 1191 00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:22,319 Speaker 2: that in just about a minute. It's about twenty two 1192 00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 2: past the hour.

There we go, 1203 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 2: all right, Bucket Brooks. We talk about things off the 1204 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:06,160 Speaker 2: field right now. I'm talking about culture, talking about things like, 1205 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 2: I guess the culture of a team, and maybe you 1206 00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 2: mentioned the vibe. The vibe around the La the Las 1207 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:16,600 Speaker 2: Vegas Raiders last year has changed since Antonio Pierce changed 1208 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:19,120 Speaker 2: the so called culture of the Raiders. All right. They 1209 00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 2: even beat the Kansas City Chiefs. And you said he 1210 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 2: had the Antonio Pierce Mahomes rules. What was the Mahomes 1211 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,320 Speaker 2: rules thing? I kind of missed that. What was that? 1212 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:32,600 Speaker 3: Now? He he went on a podcast and just talked 1213 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:36,720 Speaker 3: about how they defended Patrick Mahomes. It was very similar 1214 00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 3: to the Jordan rules. They want to make sure they 1215 00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 3: got people in his bodies. They want to make sure 1216 00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 3: they hit him when they could. They want to get 1217 00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 3: people into paint to disrupt the rhythm and the timing 1218 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,320 Speaker 3: of the passing game, and so they had a very 1219 00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 3: clear plan for what they wanted to do with them 1220 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:51,760 Speaker 3: and they were successful, Like they beat the Chiefs up 1221 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 3: on Christmas Day, and the Chiefs talked about how that 1222 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 3: win propelled them to the success making them run to 1223 00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:01,560 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. All right, go ahead. So as he 1224 00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:04,400 Speaker 3: knows what he's doing, he is not fearful of the 1225 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 3: rest of the division, and so that gives him a 1226 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 3: lot of confidence. 1227 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 2: All right, And I'm going to go back to what 1228 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:12,240 Speaker 2: you wrote about ap the vibes around the Las Vegas 1229 00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:14,400 Speaker 2: rate has changed since he became the head coach. He 1230 00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 2: was the interim coach last year, and like you got 1231 00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:20,480 Speaker 2: the full time gig in January, and you say culture change? 1232 00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:25,440 Speaker 2: Is that because fear is culture related to fear with 1233 00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:30,040 Speaker 2: players because they say he wants demanding more effort, more toughness, 1234 00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 2: more physicality. To me, that's fear. I remember when Forrest 1235 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 2: Greg coached the Cincinnati Bengals. You could use the term culture, 1236 00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:41,000 Speaker 2: which really wasn't in vogue back then, but it was fear. 1237 00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 2: Those players feared Forrest Greg. 1238 00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 3: They did. I mean, look, I think that's a great comparison, 1239 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:52,120 Speaker 3: but I would say it's not fear. Based. I would say, 1240 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,560 Speaker 3: when you've been exposed to winning, you've been exposed to 1241 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:56,600 Speaker 3: winning at a high level, you know what's required to 1242 00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 3: get it done. So far as Greg played under the 1243 00:58:58,600 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 3: legendary Vince Lombardy, Lombardy would tell you that it's about 1244 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,840 Speaker 3: fitness and the fundamentals that lead to success. A lot 1245 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,520 Speaker 3: of conditioning, a lot of fundamental work. Do it over 1246 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:11,080 Speaker 3: and over again until it's perfect. That's how Forrest Grid 1247 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 3: led to Cincinnati Binals. They went to a super Bowl. 1248 00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:15,560 Speaker 3: They lost, but they went to a super Bowl. When 1249 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 3: you think about Antonio Pears, he played it under Tom Coughlin. 1250 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 3: Tom Coughlin believes in that fitness and fundamentals, fundamentals, fanatical 1251 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 3: about the approach and the preparation. AP has that AP 1252 00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:30,640 Speaker 3: was like one of the leaders of that team. Everyone 1253 00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:33,320 Speaker 3: looks to him. So he certainly has brought that to 1254 00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 3: the Raiders. And when you think about Tom Coughlin being 1255 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:38,360 Speaker 3: around the team a lot, Marvin Lewis been around the 1256 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,960 Speaker 3: team a lot. AP surround himself with head coaches that 1257 00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:44,720 Speaker 3: have orchestrated turnarounds, so he's going to be more demanding, 1258 00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:46,919 Speaker 3: and you can be more demanding and hold your guys 1259 00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:49,960 Speaker 3: accountable without creating fear. You just don't let them get 1260 00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 3: away with the small things. You make them do it 1261 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 3: over until they do it right, and you don't relent 1262 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 3: off of that. That's not fear based, that's just being 1263 00:59:57,520 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 3: very detailed, and ap is very detailed when it comes 1264 01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:01,400 Speaker 3: to what he wants from his team. 1265 01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:04,280 Speaker 2: Okay, and I did mention coming up to the seven cultures. Great, 1266 01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 2: and certainly fear factor is part of culture, but quarterbacking 1267 01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:09,880 Speaker 2: is better. So as good as coach as he is, 1268 01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:12,800 Speaker 2: as much as a detailed guy as Antonio appears, is 1269 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 2: I have a question can he get it done with 1270 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 2: Aidan O'Connell and Gardner Minshew with quarterback? 1271 01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 3: Now, that's to me a question that it's subject for debate, 1272 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:22,680 Speaker 3: because I don't know if those guys are good enough 1273 01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:25,320 Speaker 3: to win at a high level, particularly against Pat Mahomes 1274 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:28,880 Speaker 3: and Justin Herbert in that division. But what you're hoping 1275 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:30,760 Speaker 3: is that the rest of the team is so good 1276 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:33,200 Speaker 3: that maybe you don't need the quarterback to be the 1277 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 3: lead actor. You just need him to be another supporting 1278 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:37,960 Speaker 3: player and they can find a way to get it 1279 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:40,400 Speaker 3: done collectively. But the major question that they have is 1280 01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:41,760 Speaker 3: do Are they good enough at quarter? 1281 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is the question right there. And you talk 1282 01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 2: about culture, it's about turnaround. And you mentioned the term 1283 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,760 Speaker 2: turnaround coach. Maybe there's none better than Jim Harbar. I 1284 01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:52,600 Speaker 2: know he's going through some well, he's not really going 1285 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:54,960 Speaker 2: through some heat. University of Michigan. It's not him. He's 1286 01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 2: clear in fury and he's out there in San Diego 1287 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:02,520 Speaker 2: with the LA Well la the LA Charges now and 1288 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 2: look that team. To me, the Charges over the last 1289 01:01:05,080 --> 01:01:08,640 Speaker 2: three four years has been talented, but very underachieving. You 1290 01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:10,600 Speaker 2: could kind of rest the showard that when they got 1291 01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:13,240 Speaker 2: to the fourth quarter they would blow the lead. They 1292 01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 2: just gave it up all the time. So we'll see 1293 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 2: what he could do now. But why is he such 1294 01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 2: a turnaround coach? I mean, wherever he went he won, 1295 01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 2: as mentioned early on San Diego, So the University of 1296 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 2: Stanford forty nine ers Michigan. Is it magic? Is it luck? 1297 01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 2: How does he get it done? 1298 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:31,360 Speaker 3: Now? 1299 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,120 Speaker 2: Some will come out out of the woodwork and say, 1300 01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:36,480 Speaker 2: well he cheated. No, no, no, he can't do that 1301 01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:38,240 Speaker 2: on the field. You got to get it done on 1302 01:01:38,280 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 2: the field. 1303 01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 3: Old school approached old school methods like some would say man, 1304 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:49,120 Speaker 3: it's kind of like your grandma's oatmeal cookie recipe, like 1305 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 3: it's just tried and true. There's a proven formula that 1306 01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:55,400 Speaker 3: he uses to win games, and that is physicality toughness. 1307 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:57,760 Speaker 3: They're gonna run the football and play great defense, and 1308 01:01:57,760 --> 01:01:59,880 Speaker 3: they're gonna beat you up. And they pride themselves in 1309 01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 3: emerging as the bullies on the block, and their level 1310 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:05,800 Speaker 3: of physicality, their level of toughness can be hard to 1311 01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 3: match an over a four quarter game. They wear people 1312 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 3: down sixty minutes of just getting pummeled over and over 1313 01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:14,560 Speaker 3: again by a team that is relentless. And how they 1314 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:18,120 Speaker 3: approach it, man, that'll beat most teams. And then if 1315 01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:22,320 Speaker 3: they master the part of the game that you can control. Hey, 1316 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:24,800 Speaker 3: let's limit the turnovers. Let's limited number of pre snapped 1317 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:27,200 Speaker 3: penalties we have. Let's make sure everyone knows their assignment. 1318 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 3: Let's not give the opponent anything. Well, now, you really 1319 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:32,880 Speaker 3: put yourself in a position to win, because most teams 1320 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,440 Speaker 3: can't execute at a high enough level to beat the 1321 01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:38,800 Speaker 3: very disciplined and detailed team, and so Harbord has been 1322 01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:40,240 Speaker 3: able to do that, and that's why he's one of 1323 01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:42,760 Speaker 3: the best when it comes to turning it around all right. 1324 01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:45,400 Speaker 2: I mean, you look for big things from the Charges 1325 01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 2: this year, I think, don't you. 1326 01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:52,520 Speaker 3: I do, the injury to Justin Herbert tempers some of 1327 01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:58,040 Speaker 3: that enthusiasmic excitement over them, but no, I still think 1328 01:02:58,040 --> 01:02:59,640 Speaker 3: they have an opportunity to be a pretty good team. 1329 01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:00,560 Speaker 3: All right. 1330 01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 2: I want to go to one of the biggest stories 1331 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 2: I think will be in the National Football League this year. 1332 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:07,720 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm wrong on this, I think it will be though, 1333 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,240 Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels and the new coach of the Washington Commanders, 1334 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:15,800 Speaker 2: dan Quinn. Dan Quinn obviously has been there, done that. Defensively, 1335 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:18,160 Speaker 2: he knows what he's doing. But you talk about high 1336 01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:21,240 Speaker 2: We talked about hyper Earleon Michleb Williams in Chicago. I mean, 1337 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 2: the expectations are going through the roof and he had 1338 01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:26,040 Speaker 2: a decent opening against Buffalo in the preseason, which means 1339 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 2: absolutely nothing, but confidence wise, it probably means something. Jayden 1340 01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 2: Daniels is going to get it done. I mean they're 1341 01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:34,240 Speaker 2: already touting him, as you say, as the front runner 1342 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:36,360 Speaker 2: for the Offensive Rookie of the Year award. So we'll 1343 01:03:36,360 --> 01:03:38,760 Speaker 2: see what happens with the and then look, the good 1344 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:41,160 Speaker 2: news for Washington they're in a fairly weak division. 1345 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 3: I mean, there's good news for Washington. They're in a 1346 01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:48,120 Speaker 3: weak division. They will have an opportunity to get it done. 1347 01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:51,640 Speaker 3: Jaden Daniels did have a nice debut performance. We saw 1348 01:03:51,720 --> 01:03:54,640 Speaker 3: him check down, I throw a deep past the Yommy 1349 01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,880 Speaker 3: Brown down the sideline. This team is good enough because 1350 01:03:57,920 --> 01:03:59,680 Speaker 3: dan Quinn is certainly going to have them competing. He 1351 01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:01,480 Speaker 3: certain is going to work on the chemistry and make 1352 01:04:01,520 --> 01:04:04,000 Speaker 3: sure they're connected as a team. They just need some 1353 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 3: juice at quarterback, and Jadon and Anders can give them 1354 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,440 Speaker 3: as a dual threat quarterback. He has big time speed 1355 01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:12,480 Speaker 3: and home run ability as a runner, but it's really 1356 01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:15,480 Speaker 3: good from the pocket. He's dangerous. You worry about the frame, 1357 01:04:15,600 --> 01:04:16,960 Speaker 3: but there's no doubt he's dangerous. 1358 01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 2: All right. So you like the fact that Washington could 1359 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:23,360 Speaker 2: be a contender this year, maybe not win the division, 1360 01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:24,760 Speaker 2: but at least make the playoffs. 1361 01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:26,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they can be in the mix. And 1362 01:04:26,560 --> 01:04:28,600 Speaker 3: with the Cowboys dealing with the stuffs they're dealing with, 1363 01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:32,040 Speaker 3: oh yeah, who knows. I mean, you can't pencil anybody 1364 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 3: in Philadelphia has a new offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator, 1365 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:38,080 Speaker 3: and so it takes a while for everyone to get 1366 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 3: on the same page. When it comes to that, they 1367 01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:43,160 Speaker 3: have as good a chance as anybody else within that division. 1368 01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:46,920 Speaker 2: Right, He's about defensive minded coaches. You got Mike McDaniel, 1369 01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:49,760 Speaker 2: Mike McDonald right now in Seattle. What is that going 1370 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:52,600 Speaker 2: to do for the offense on that team in Seattle? 1371 01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 2: Because I think with Gino as quarterback, I mean, what's 1372 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:58,080 Speaker 2: gonna happen now, is gonna be a heavy defensive minded 1373 01:04:58,120 --> 01:04:59,400 Speaker 2: team the Seattle Seahawks. 1374 01:05:00,720 --> 01:05:03,360 Speaker 3: I think they will be that. And I think what 1375 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 3: he'll do is he'll keep something the positive from what 1376 01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:09,000 Speaker 3: his predecessor, Pete Carroll has established, but it'll be a 1377 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:13,040 Speaker 3: little more militaristic in terms of the approach. They're gonna 1378 01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:16,919 Speaker 3: be buttoned up in detailed and they gonna play hard 1379 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:19,680 Speaker 3: and do those things Offensively, they may be dynamic because 1380 01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:22,760 Speaker 3: the college coach being grubbed offense coordinator has been elevated 1381 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:24,840 Speaker 3: to take over the Hawks, and so they're trying to 1382 01:05:24,840 --> 01:05:28,600 Speaker 3: push it down the field with Gino Smith attacking. Yeah, 1383 01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:30,720 Speaker 3: but this team can get it done. They can get 1384 01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,520 Speaker 3: it done on defense. It'd be a little different fashion, 1385 01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:35,640 Speaker 3: a little more complexity to what they were doing but 1386 01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 3: they canna play hard, they can play fast, and he's 1387 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:38,960 Speaker 3: gonna make sure they're on the right page. 1388 01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 2: Puckey Brooks. I'm really surprised of this because I you're 1389 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:44,280 Speaker 2: very sky high on the Atlanta Falcons and they're coach 1390 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:47,960 Speaker 2: Rahee Morris. I gotta ask you, why is that You 1391 01:05:48,040 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 2: got Kirk Cousins, who's thirty six, thirty seven years of 1392 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:53,280 Speaker 2: age coming off an injury. I know he's a four 1393 01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:55,960 Speaker 2: thousand yeard passer. He's done that on his resume for 1394 01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:58,280 Speaker 2: like what ten twelve years, whatever it may be. And 1395 01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:00,640 Speaker 2: they got Michael Pennox Jr. And I think the other 1396 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:03,360 Speaker 2: day Cousins came out said he is somewhat concerned of 1397 01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:05,800 Speaker 2: why he even now went to ATLANDA. I mean, the 1398 01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:08,640 Speaker 2: money was great, but he didn't know the situation over 1399 01:06:08,680 --> 01:06:12,200 Speaker 2: there where he's going to be. So if he comes 1400 01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:15,280 Speaker 2: back to form after that, Achilles, maybe it gives him 1401 01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:19,520 Speaker 2: some firepower. But other than that, why so high sky 1402 01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:22,320 Speaker 2: on Raheem Morris and the Atlanta Falcons. 1403 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:26,000 Speaker 3: One, they had the path to the least resistance to 1404 01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:28,880 Speaker 3: win the division. There's not a nominated team within the division, 1405 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:32,480 Speaker 3: the Saints, the Buccaneers to Carolina Panthers. There's not a 1406 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 3: top five team in the division, so you close the 1407 01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:38,600 Speaker 3: gap there too. Offensively, they have firepower and weapons. Drake London, 1408 01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:41,160 Speaker 3: b John Robinson, Kyle Pissed. They have enough to be 1409 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 3: able to score. Kirk Cousins has seven four thousand yeard 1410 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:47,200 Speaker 3: seasons on his resume. Kirk Cousins doesn't need to be 1411 01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:49,520 Speaker 3: anything beyond what he's been in the past, and this 1412 01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:51,560 Speaker 3: team is good enough to put points on the board 1413 01:06:51,560 --> 01:06:53,960 Speaker 3: and move the ball up and down the field. Defensively, 1414 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:57,479 Speaker 3: Rahee Morris and Jimmy Lake have teamed up again. They've 1415 01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:00,760 Speaker 3: been together a lot. I first met him in Tampa. 1416 01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:04,080 Speaker 3: Rahie Morris goes on to have a lot of successes 1417 01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 3: defensive coordinated defensive back coach, wide receiver coach. He comes back, 1418 01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 3: takes all that experience and puts together in Atlanta, and 1419 01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:12,600 Speaker 3: he and Jimmy late because they've worked together, and they 1420 01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:15,320 Speaker 3: worked together last year with the Rams. They can put together. 1421 01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 3: It's solid being but don't break defense. That gives their 1422 01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:20,760 Speaker 3: offense opportunities to win games. I think that the best 1423 01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:22,480 Speaker 3: team in division, which is why I was Bullet showed 1424 01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:24,800 Speaker 3: him as a number one coach too. 1425 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,000 Speaker 2: Well, you're really excited. I mean, if all the coaches 1426 01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 2: we went through, I mean, you're really sky high, as 1427 01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,000 Speaker 2: I say on Raheem Morris and he's out of foul 1428 01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,440 Speaker 2: because you're excited about that team, really off watching. 1429 01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:36,320 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I just I just think he's a 1430 01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:38,240 Speaker 3: good coach. He's taken all the stuff that he learned 1431 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,520 Speaker 3: from the Rams, and he talked about the collaborative effort 1432 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 3: that the RAMS had with Sean McVay and Lefs Sneed. 1433 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:45,960 Speaker 3: He wants to learn from all those things and put 1434 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:48,200 Speaker 3: him in place. Now. There's a lot of controversy over 1435 01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 3: the quarterback situation and Kirk Cousins and why double down 1436 01:07:51,360 --> 01:07:54,680 Speaker 3: and get Michael Pennix. But as he talked about, it's 1437 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 3: the most important position in the game, and we neglect 1438 01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:00,160 Speaker 3: the second position. And even though it's the current and 1439 01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:03,600 Speaker 3: the amount of money paid for both, you know, one 1440 01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:07,560 Speaker 3: hundred million dollars plus for the quarterback, top pick for 1441 01:08:07,640 --> 01:08:10,600 Speaker 3: the second quarterback, that's a lot. But if you secured 1442 01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:13,080 Speaker 3: that position for the next fifteen to twenty years, you're 1443 01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:16,400 Speaker 3: always in play as a title contender. One of the 1444 01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 3: reasons why they're gonna be in play this year is 1445 01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 3: because Kirk Cousins is going to give them a chance 1446 01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:20,599 Speaker 3: to win every game. 1447 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:23,639 Speaker 2: All right, I'm with you. Then I'm gonna follow Landa Falcons. Now, 1448 01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:26,559 Speaker 2: there's no doubt about that. He's Bucket Brooks. I mean 1449 01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:28,760 Speaker 2: the firmerweel Fox Sports on the a Fox Sports Radio. 1450 01:08:28,800 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 2: By the way, one NFL team is in big trouble. 1451 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:33,840 Speaker 2: They really are. There's coming up next live for the 1452 01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:37,599 Speaker 2: Tyraq dot com studios.

I don't make a lot 1519 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:56,960 Speaker 2: of messes, but I'd like to read about them and 1520 01:11:56,960 --> 01:11:59,760 Speaker 2: the New York Jets. They're being sued by an eighty 1521 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:02,479 Speaker 2: one year old rockstar and it could result in the 1522 01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:05,719 Speaker 2: team losing its logo as well as tens of millions 1523 01:12:05,760 --> 01:12:08,880 Speaker 2: of dollars. Get this back in nineteen eighty nineteen seventy three, 1524 01:12:09,280 --> 01:12:12,519 Speaker 2: Jim Pons he left his career as a successful bass 1525 01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:15,559 Speaker 2: player the vocalist to work for the Jets as their 1526 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:19,240 Speaker 2: film and video director. Five years later, the Jets were 1527 01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:22,960 Speaker 2: looking for a redesign, so Pons submitted his logo idea 1528 01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 2: and the front office loved it, so the team used 1529 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:29,120 Speaker 2: it as his primary logo from nineteen seventy eight to 1530 01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:31,680 Speaker 2: nineteen ninety seven, and they used it twice again in 1531 01:12:31,760 --> 01:12:35,479 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three to alternate their uniforms, and then earlier 1532 01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:38,599 Speaker 2: this year, the team announced that they'd be using pons 1533 01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:42,080 Speaker 2: design full time this year, and they even filmed it 1534 01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:44,439 Speaker 2: in a mini documentary with him, in which he told 1535 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:47,800 Speaker 2: the story of this original design. But then get this. 1536 01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:52,720 Speaker 2: Three months later, TMZ revealed that Pons was suing the 1537 01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:57,040 Speaker 2: Jets and the NFL for stealing his logo, claiming that 1538 01:12:57,080 --> 01:13:00,000 Speaker 2: he still owned the original design since it was created 1539 01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:02,920 Speaker 2: out of his original scope of work. Unbelievable. So can 1540 01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:05,439 Speaker 2: you imagine the Jets be going on the field Aaron 1541 01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:08,120 Speaker 2: Rodgers on there with a uniform with no logo on 1542 01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:12,040 Speaker 2: its unbelievable? I mean, who would have funk that stories 1543 01:13:12,080 --> 01:13:14,479 Speaker 2: like this would arise, and who created the logo and 1544 01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:16,519 Speaker 2: he assuing that he wants his logo back. I think 1545 01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:17,120 Speaker 2: it's crazy. 1546 01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:20,719 Speaker 3: Well, I mean it happened. I mean, it's not uncommon, 1547 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:24,479 Speaker 3: like people are always trying to do it. But I mean, 1548 01:13:24,520 --> 01:13:27,080 Speaker 3: if he created a logo and the Jets didn't compensate him, 1549 01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:29,360 Speaker 3: then I mean he has every right to sue. I mean, 1550 01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:31,920 Speaker 3: I think this is something that from a business standpoint, 1551 01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:34,240 Speaker 3: they should have buttoned it up and you know, before 1552 01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 3: he could even get to this standpoint. So for the Jets, 1553 01:13:37,240 --> 01:13:40,000 Speaker 3: it's a situation where they potentially could have egg on 1554 01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:42,400 Speaker 3: their face because they didn't take care of business and 1555 01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:45,720 Speaker 3: just take care of the guy, you know, given what 1556 01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:49,439 Speaker 3: he wanted early years ago. And this probably never comes 1557 01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:50,080 Speaker 3: back up again. 1558 01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:52,559 Speaker 2: I never thought the Jets logo was such a great 1559 01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:54,360 Speaker 2: logo anyway, did you. I mean, what do you think 1560 01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:55,879 Speaker 2: is the best logo in the NFL? 1561 01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:59,240 Speaker 3: H Well, I would say the Jets logo. I thought 1562 01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:00,960 Speaker 3: it was cool, like in the day, like the one 1563 01:14:01,040 --> 01:14:03,040 Speaker 3: the uniform that they're going back to with the white 1564 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:05,800 Speaker 3: face mask and the green h it reminds me of 1565 01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 3: back in the day. When they had Richard Todd. When 1566 01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:10,840 Speaker 3: I was coming up, Richard Todd and Al Tune and 1567 01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:14,360 Speaker 3: Free Mnneil and those guys. I would say, the best 1568 01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:18,160 Speaker 3: logo in the league. You know, it's different because I'm 1569 01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:21,679 Speaker 3: partial to classics. I think the Raiders' uniform and logo 1570 01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:26,639 Speaker 3: is timelessly the Cowboys. Yeah, the Cowboys uniform is that. 1571 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:28,400 Speaker 3: I mean, I understand the love on the street for 1572 01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:30,960 Speaker 3: the Chargers because the powder blues and the lightning bolt 1573 01:14:30,960 --> 01:14:34,639 Speaker 3: and things. So yeah, so I think those things are great. 1574 01:14:34,760 --> 01:14:38,120 Speaker 3: You know, I'm torn because the Denver Broncos are kind 1575 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:41,720 Speaker 3: of flirting with their They have this uniform change, but 1576 01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:45,639 Speaker 3: they have their old school uniform uh in play, which 1577 01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:47,800 Speaker 3: is back when the Orange crushed, when they had Rick 1578 01:14:47,880 --> 01:14:50,760 Speaker 3: Upchurch and called Mecklenburg and those guys. There was the 1579 01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:53,599 Speaker 3: bright orange with the blue helmet and the I would say, 1580 01:14:53,680 --> 01:14:56,439 Speaker 3: kind of like the horse in the middle of the deep. 1581 01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:59,599 Speaker 3: I like that uniform. But they're bringing some of that back, 1582 01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:01,559 Speaker 3: but they had this new stuff. I think a lot 1583 01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:05,040 Speaker 3: of times when teams look back their old uniforms, their 1584 01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 3: original design is their best uniform. 1585 01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,719 Speaker 2: I could you know what I'm with you?

Like Cam Newton trotting into the end zone 1624 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:01,479 Speaker 9: a few years ago. You remember that he was shouting, 1625 01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:04,200 Speaker 9: I'm back.

Uh, Bucky three, Andy two. 1633 01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:27,200 Speaker 9: So it was a close one. Overall score Bucky seventy one, 1634 01:17:27,360 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 9: Andy fifty six, so you actually have closed the gap. 1635 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:31,559 Speaker 9: Since when did we. 1636 01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:33,439 Speaker 2: Start from zero?

We 1637 01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:34,719 Speaker 2: can study when does that happen? 1638 01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:36,080 Speaker 9: I feel like that would have been a good time 1639 01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:39,400 Speaker 9: to do it when Bree stepped in. I don't know. 1640 01:17:39,439 --> 01:17:41,479 Speaker 9: We can talk about this. We can. We can talk 1641 01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:43,679 Speaker 9: about a reset maybe, but Bucky would need a prize 1642 01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:46,280 Speaker 9: because he has won then in that case. But either way, 1643 01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:50,320 Speaker 9: we'll get into this week's lines.

Andy? 1723 01:21:24,720 --> 01:21:26,719 Speaker 2: Everything is good? You know, But there's only one major 1724 01:21:26,800 --> 01:21:29,400 Speaker 2: problem here on this show. What we lack today? We 1725 01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:32,240 Speaker 2: lacked a little controversy. I think controversy is good. See 1726 01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:34,920 Speaker 2: you bring out the best of me. Really, I'm kind 1727 01:21:34,920 --> 01:21:37,439 Speaker 2: of like one of those devil advocate kind of guys 1728 01:21:37,439 --> 01:21:40,880 Speaker 2: of poking and punching and pulling and you know, and 1729 01:21:40,960 --> 01:21:43,920 Speaker 2: you kind of set me straight, you know. I guess 1730 01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:45,960 Speaker 2: it's a good thing, but I kind of miss it. 1731 01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:47,719 Speaker 2: I kind of missed it back. I got a little 1732 01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:50,240 Speaker 2: bit now, I got a little bit now. Are you ready? 1733 01:21:50,280 --> 01:21:53,320 Speaker 2: Because I heard and I read this the other day. 1734 01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:56,479 Speaker 2: Tim Murphy used to coach football at the University of Cincinnati, 1735 01:21:56,560 --> 01:21:59,080 Speaker 2: but then he left and he went to Harvard and 1736 01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:01,720 Speaker 2: it became like, you know, an unbelievable coach. I mean, 1737 01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:04,040 Speaker 2: he just won every year. He won the Ivy League 1738 01:22:04,080 --> 01:22:06,800 Speaker 2: every year at Harvard. And he made a major comment 1739 01:22:06,880 --> 01:22:08,880 Speaker 2: which I read. I want to share with you the 1740 01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:12,800 Speaker 2: major difference between NFL football and college football. Are you 1741 01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:15,519 Speaker 2: ready for this? This is what he did. He says 1742 01:22:15,520 --> 01:22:17,840 Speaker 2: it's simple. The NFL has a two hundred and fifty 1743 01:22:17,880 --> 01:22:21,080 Speaker 2: five million dollars salary cap. Everybody gets the same amount 1744 01:22:21,120 --> 01:22:24,439 Speaker 2: of money, so it is equality and equity. If you're 1745 01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:27,120 Speaker 2: fortunate enough to win a Super Bowl, you don't get 1746 01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:29,479 Speaker 2: the first draft pick, you get the last draft pick. 1747 01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 2: So everybody has a good chance to succeed the way 1748 01:22:32,040 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 2: the system is now in major college football, if you're 1749 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:38,960 Speaker 2: a mid level school and a quality league, let's say 1750 01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:41,960 Speaker 2: the Big Ten for instance, or the SEC. You say 1751 01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:45,080 Speaker 2: you're Purdue and you have a tremendous nine to two season, 1752 01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:47,200 Speaker 2: you go to a bowl game. What do you get 1753 01:22:47,200 --> 01:22:49,840 Speaker 2: for that? All you get is someone's going to clean 1754 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:51,880 Speaker 2: you out of your roster and instead of having to 1755 01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:55,120 Speaker 2: recruit sixteen guys, now you've got to recruit thirty or 1756 01:22:55,160 --> 01:22:58,280 Speaker 2: forty guys. College football is the wild wild West. The 1757 01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:01,240 Speaker 2: rich get richer, and it's a train wreck. If you're 1758 01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:03,439 Speaker 2: a school like Ohio State or Michigan, if you're a 1759 01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:06,759 Speaker 2: school like Alabama or Georgia, you just made it easier 1760 01:23:06,800 --> 01:23:10,000 Speaker 2: to get back to the national championship, not harder. Great point. 1761 01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:12,600 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not trying to be controversial here, but 1762 01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:15,639 Speaker 2: that's just the way it is. I understand the whole 1763 01:23:15,680 --> 01:23:20,640 Speaker 2: situation with the transfer pool and the portal and the 1764 01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:22,920 Speaker 2: anil and all that stuff, but there's gotta be a 1765 01:23:22,960 --> 01:23:25,120 Speaker 2: better way. There's gotta be a better way. He makes 1766 01:23:25,160 --> 01:23:29,080 Speaker 2: a great point because schools like Purdue decent program in 1767 01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:31,639 Speaker 2: a tremendous conference. You have a great year and then 1768 01:23:31,680 --> 01:23:33,840 Speaker 2: look at your roster. Next thing, you know, everybody's gonna 1769 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:35,559 Speaker 2: be in the portal. You're gonna lose those guys. And 1770 01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:38,839 Speaker 2: he says, as coach Murphy says, instead of losing sixteen 1771 01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:41,240 Speaker 2: guys maybe for graduation or whatever, you're gonna have to 1772 01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:43,280 Speaker 2: recruit thirty or forty because they gonna want to go 1773 01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:45,240 Speaker 2: to a bigger and better program. 1774 01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:50,840 Speaker 3: Yeah it's true. I mean, it's definitely true. There guys 1775 01:23:50,840 --> 01:23:53,800 Speaker 3: are certainly hunting and looking for the next best deal, 1776 01:23:53,840 --> 01:23:57,000 Speaker 3: and it makes it very, very tough to maintain your roster. 1777 01:23:57,360 --> 01:24:01,320 Speaker 3: And it's unfortunate that everyone is looking for a better thing. 1778 01:24:01,360 --> 01:24:03,360 Speaker 3: But that's just kind of the way the way it goes. 1779 01:24:03,720 --> 01:24:03,840 Speaker 2: Uh. 1780 01:24:04,320 --> 01:24:08,600 Speaker 3: I think coaches can try and do their best to 1781 01:24:08,640 --> 01:24:10,920 Speaker 3: protect their players and keep their players on the roster, 1782 01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:13,320 Speaker 3: but ultimately, man, you you kind of have to know 1783 01:24:13,400 --> 01:24:16,800 Speaker 3: that if you're one of those teams, and I can't 1784 01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:19,599 Speaker 3: even say A Lord Division, right, I can't even say 1785 01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:24,679 Speaker 3: if you're not a I have you potentially gonna lose 1786 01:24:24,720 --> 01:24:27,600 Speaker 3: your team to one of these other squads. It's just 1787 01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:30,880 Speaker 3: I guess it's the way of doing business in college 1788 01:24:30,880 --> 01:24:31,839 Speaker 3: sports right now. 1789 01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:35,720 Speaker 2: Like you know, just yeah, the best I guess the opportunity. 1790 01:24:36,160 --> 01:24:38,519 Speaker 2: But you know, you turn the radio one and you 1791 01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:42,479 Speaker 2: hear hosts behind the microphone talking about, you know what, 1792 01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:45,599 Speaker 2: the team is going to do, their perspective, and they're 1793 01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:47,799 Speaker 2: gonna win, They're gonna lose the players that have the personnel. 1794 01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:49,760 Speaker 2: I think you've gotta take a step back and take 1795 01:24:49,760 --> 01:24:52,240 Speaker 2: a look at what has happened over the last year 1796 01:24:52,360 --> 01:24:54,960 Speaker 2: or two. I'm looking at Colorado. I have nothing personal 1797 01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:57,280 Speaker 2: against Dean Sanders. I loved that when he was in Cincinnati, 1798 01:24:57,360 --> 01:24:59,000 Speaker 2: when he played for the Cincinnati Reds. I think it's 1799 01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:02,320 Speaker 2: a tremendous athlete. But when he came into Colorado, I 1800 01:25:02,360 --> 01:25:04,040 Speaker 2: gotta take I got to ask you a take on 1801 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:06,400 Speaker 2: the fact that he basically told these players, you're not 1802 01:25:06,439 --> 01:25:08,479 Speaker 2: going to play here, so get lost, get out, and 1803 01:25:08,479 --> 01:25:10,960 Speaker 2: he cleared the roster out just the other day, he 1804 01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:14,000 Speaker 2: had a news conference with the media in Colorado. He 1805 01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:16,320 Speaker 2: wouldn't talk to the local CBS affiliate guy because he 1806 01:25:16,320 --> 01:25:18,880 Speaker 2: said CBS did him wrong because they picked him last 1807 01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:21,120 Speaker 2: in the conference this year. But you know there's national 1808 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,920 Speaker 2: with CBS dot Com, not the local Denver CBS guy 1809 01:25:25,240 --> 01:25:27,720 Speaker 2: for the CBS station. So he just he went off 1810 01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:30,080 Speaker 2: big time in the media when he went crazy. And 1811 01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:33,439 Speaker 2: you know, you don't win like that. You just can't 1812 01:25:33,439 --> 01:25:35,960 Speaker 2: win doing stuff like that. And the transfer portal, and 1813 01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:38,200 Speaker 2: so many questions I have. Why is it that you 1814 01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:39,920 Speaker 2: could put your name in the portal and you have 1815 01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:41,960 Speaker 2: to sit out a year? You know back in the day, 1816 01:25:42,160 --> 01:25:43,559 Speaker 2: and you know it when you went to school, if 1817 01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,160 Speaker 2: you were to transfer from North Carolina to another school, 1818 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:47,960 Speaker 2: you'd have to sit out a year before you could 1819 01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:51,800 Speaker 2: play again. Why and how does this happen and why 1820 01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:54,559 Speaker 2: did it change in that direction? I don't understand it. 1821 01:25:54,680 --> 01:25:56,639 Speaker 2: Maybe you can help me out. Rather than talk about 1822 01:25:56,640 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 2: what teams are going to be great, I want to 1823 01:25:58,439 --> 01:26:02,200 Speaker 2: know how this thing came up. About the evolution of. 1824 01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:05,080 Speaker 3: This, Well, the evolution is you had the greedy people 1825 01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:07,120 Speaker 3: who didn't want to share with the people who were 1826 01:26:07,120 --> 01:26:10,400 Speaker 3: really growing the game, and so the players were not 1827 01:26:10,400 --> 01:26:12,920 Speaker 3: getting the share everyone else was eating off the backs 1828 01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:16,240 Speaker 3: of the players. You had coaches who watched their salaries 1829 01:26:16,560 --> 01:26:19,920 Speaker 3: explode to the point where coaches are making ten million dollars, 1830 01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:23,800 Speaker 3: but you had players who couldn't go get a meal 1831 01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:26,960 Speaker 3: from the training table if it wasn't on the car, 1832 01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:29,120 Speaker 3: because it could be a violation depending on what time 1833 01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:32,719 Speaker 3: of year it was. And so what happened greed undid everything, 1834 01:26:32,840 --> 01:26:36,240 Speaker 3: and then when it went to court, the courts litigated 1835 01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 3: and found that it wasn't fair to the players that 1836 01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:40,840 Speaker 3: were doing all the work that they didn't get a cut. 1837 01:26:40,840 --> 01:26:43,680 Speaker 3: And so if it had been a situation where it 1838 01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:45,479 Speaker 3: could have been the little things back in the day, 1839 01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:48,400 Speaker 3: where they were just more fair and equitable to the players, 1840 01:26:48,439 --> 01:26:51,640 Speaker 3: then you wouldn't see the portal in these things. But 1841 01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:53,360 Speaker 3: I kind of want to talk about because you brought 1842 01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:56,760 Speaker 3: up Deon Sanders and some of the stuff and how 1843 01:26:56,840 --> 01:26:59,920 Speaker 3: he should maybe play nice with the media, even though 1844 01:27:00,040 --> 01:27:02,360 Speaker 3: from the time he is taking the job in Colorado 1845 01:27:02,479 --> 01:27:06,000 Speaker 3: everyone has taken shots at him. I believe that Dion 1846 01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:08,120 Speaker 3: is always going to be a polarizing figure. Right He 1847 01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:10,920 Speaker 3: was polarizing as a player because people say that he 1848 01:27:10,960 --> 01:27:13,400 Speaker 3: shouldn't be so cocky, he shouldn't be arrogant, he should 1849 01:27:13,400 --> 01:27:15,840 Speaker 3: be humble at like he's been there before. But that's 1850 01:27:15,880 --> 01:27:18,639 Speaker 3: not who he is. The bravado is a real part 1851 01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:22,920 Speaker 3: of his personality. That's who he is. And there are 1852 01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:25,720 Speaker 3: other teams who've also lived in the portal. Look at 1853 01:27:25,720 --> 01:27:29,680 Speaker 3: the teams that are just living in the Porter. Alabama 1854 01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:31,639 Speaker 3: has a bunch of players today've taken from the Porter. 1855 01:27:31,800 --> 01:27:34,680 Speaker 3: Georgia as well. There aren't many teams that are at 1856 01:27:34,760 --> 01:27:38,519 Speaker 3: the top that aren't taking transfers. And so it does 1857 01:27:38,560 --> 01:27:42,040 Speaker 3: appear to be a little slighted that when Dion and 1858 01:27:42,120 --> 01:27:45,200 Speaker 3: Colorado lives in the Porter, when he inherited a one 1859 01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 3: and eleven team, a team that won one game, everyone 1860 01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:50,760 Speaker 3: expects him to stay with those same players when that's 1861 01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:53,559 Speaker 3: not a reality in today's sports. So to me, I 1862 01:27:53,600 --> 01:27:56,559 Speaker 3: do understand why he gets annoyed, even though I would 1863 01:27:56,600 --> 01:27:59,160 Speaker 3: tell him that waging a war against the media is 1864 01:27:59,680 --> 01:28:01,519 Speaker 3: a fight that he can't win because the power to 1865 01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:05,479 Speaker 3: pen is always going to win out. But I do 1866 01:28:05,640 --> 01:28:09,000 Speaker 3: understand the frustration that he may see when his program 1867 01:28:09,280 --> 01:28:11,839 Speaker 3: has had a lot a lot of these anonymous sources 1868 01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:14,760 Speaker 3: and players that were in the program talking bad about 1869 01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:18,080 Speaker 3: the program, and we're living in yesteryear as opposed to Hey, 1870 01:28:18,320 --> 01:28:20,920 Speaker 3: he was four and eight last year, attacking for what 1871 01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:23,320 Speaker 3: he is and if that's not good enough, then that's 1872 01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:25,559 Speaker 3: not good enough. But all these stories that continue to 1873 01:28:25,560 --> 01:28:27,320 Speaker 3: come out about it, A lot of it is just 1874 01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:29,479 Speaker 3: clickbait because they know if you talk about Dion, you 1875 01:28:29,479 --> 01:28:31,439 Speaker 3: can talk about you can get a bunch of clicks. 1876 01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:32,280 Speaker 3: You know what. 1877 01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:34,720 Speaker 2: I'm so happy you mentioned that, because you just can't win. 1878 01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:36,720 Speaker 2: You can't win. I mean, you got to suck it 1879 01:28:36,800 --> 01:28:40,360 Speaker 2: up sometimes because now I think the media will have 1880 01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:45,559 Speaker 2: a jaded aspect towards Deon Sanders. Maybe they did before, 1881 01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:48,880 Speaker 2: I don't know, but now they're gonna do everything they 1882 01:28:48,920 --> 01:28:53,120 Speaker 2: can to dig up some dirt and hurt him, especially. 1883 01:28:52,800 --> 01:28:55,360 Speaker 3: If they've they've already, I know, but they've already, they've 1884 01:28:55,360 --> 01:28:57,840 Speaker 3: already done that. Though like it's been, it's been that 1885 01:28:57,960 --> 01:29:01,519 Speaker 3: way from the jump, Like the way that his recruiting 1886 01:29:01,560 --> 01:29:03,639 Speaker 3: practices were, there were other people that run people out. 1887 01:29:03,680 --> 01:29:05,920 Speaker 3: They may not do it as I would say, as 1888 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:07,920 Speaker 3: openly as he did when he told the guys to 1889 01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:10,439 Speaker 3: jump into portal, but they run people out. They're people 1890 01:29:10,439 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 3: that run teams, run players out each and every day, 1891 01:29:14,439 --> 01:29:17,639 Speaker 3: and they move on. It is a professional business now 1892 01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:20,240 Speaker 3: at the collegiate level, and that's how coaches are treating 1893 01:29:20,240 --> 01:29:23,920 Speaker 3: it because they're cutting players basically and forcing them into 1894 01:29:23,920 --> 01:29:26,320 Speaker 3: the portal so they can have that roster for others. 1895 01:29:26,600 --> 01:29:29,200 Speaker 3: He's getting the heat, and I would tell him, because 1896 01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:30,639 Speaker 3: we're friends, I would tell them, hey, man, you can't 1897 01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:35,280 Speaker 3: win this one. By being very divisive and acrimonious or 1898 01:29:36,040 --> 01:29:38,840 Speaker 3: antagonistic to the media, You're only making it worse because 1899 01:29:38,880 --> 01:29:40,400 Speaker 3: more people are going to tune it. And no matter 1900 01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:41,960 Speaker 3: what he says, there are people that are not gonna 1901 01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:43,679 Speaker 3: like him. So he just has to focus on the product, 1902 01:29:43,880 --> 01:29:47,000 Speaker 3: which is winning. I will say this, it's asinine that 1903 01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:49,719 Speaker 3: he was ranked as the second worst coach in that conference. 1904 01:29:49,840 --> 01:29:52,479 Speaker 3: I know anyone who is anyone who has watched him, 1905 01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:56,200 Speaker 3: anyone who has watched them coach. Like, whether you like 1906 01:29:56,439 --> 01:30:00,559 Speaker 3: HPCU Black College Football or not, he dominated at that level. 1907 01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:02,519 Speaker 3: You cannot be a good coach if you don't win 1908 01:30:02,560 --> 01:30:04,880 Speaker 3: to the when you win to the level that he won. 1909 01:30:05,160 --> 01:30:08,000 Speaker 3: So it's disrespectful to him to say that he's the 1910 01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:11,960 Speaker 3: second worst coach in that, like, is really ridiculous that 1911 01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:13,920 Speaker 3: it would be ranked like that. I understand that he 1912 01:30:13,920 --> 01:30:16,679 Speaker 3: can't act and respond like that, but I would say 1913 01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:20,280 Speaker 3: that being the second worst coach in a conference with 1914 01:30:20,320 --> 01:30:23,080 Speaker 3: a bunch of coaches, yeah, that would ignore me too. 1915 01:30:23,640 --> 01:30:25,720 Speaker 2: Well, and you know what, you're exactly right. I mean 1916 01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 2: he was dominant in HBCUs. So these people that haven't 1917 01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:30,600 Speaker 2: done that homework and maybe it was just in a 1918 01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:33,000 Speaker 2: topic because they don't like him, I don't know, But 1919 01:30:33,280 --> 01:30:35,799 Speaker 2: I don't understand why if you do go into portal 1920 01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:39,599 Speaker 2: you could immediately play, maybe because they're doing these kids 1921 01:30:39,640 --> 01:30:41,280 Speaker 2: a favor because they're not going to play on the 1922 01:30:41,280 --> 01:30:43,479 Speaker 2: team that they were kind of told to leave. But 1923 01:30:43,520 --> 01:30:45,240 Speaker 2: I remember back in the day, like when you played, 1924 01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:46,640 Speaker 2: you had to sit out a year before you went 1925 01:30:46,680 --> 01:30:47,599 Speaker 2: to play somewhere else. 1926 01:30:48,520 --> 01:30:50,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's not fair because we don't make coaches 1927 01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:53,240 Speaker 3: sit out a year when they change schools. And a 1928 01:30:53,280 --> 01:30:56,400 Speaker 3: lot of people before they jumped into portal whatever, like 1929 01:30:57,600 --> 01:31:00,000 Speaker 3: they shouldn't do this. You should go to the school 1930 01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:02,840 Speaker 3: because of the school. You should go to the school 1931 01:31:02,840 --> 01:31:06,160 Speaker 3: because the educational opportunities, whatever opportunities that the school presents 1932 01:31:06,439 --> 01:31:09,439 Speaker 3: to help you live a better life down the line. However, 1933 01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:13,519 Speaker 3: most players pick their schools based on the coaches, and 1934 01:31:13,560 --> 01:31:16,599 Speaker 3: the coaches have had free agency the entire time, where 1935 01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:18,439 Speaker 3: they can stay with the player, get them signed, and 1936 01:31:18,479 --> 01:31:21,040 Speaker 3: as soon as the player signs the dotted line, they bounce. 1937 01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:24,240 Speaker 3: That's assistant coaches and head coaches where players should have 1938 01:31:24,280 --> 01:31:27,080 Speaker 3: the same freedoms. If the coach is not there, they 1939 01:31:27,080 --> 01:31:30,080 Speaker 3: should also be given the access to leave, just like 1940 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:34,120 Speaker 3: coaches are given the access to leave and coach right away. 1941 01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:36,040 Speaker 3: So there's no sit up here for coaches, so there 1942 01:31:36,040 --> 01:31:38,080 Speaker 3: shouldn't be a sit up here for players. 1943 01:31:38,640 --> 01:31:41,200 Speaker 2: Right now, I'll go one step further. Let's talk about 1944 01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:43,360 Speaker 2: the Big Twelve Conference because I'm familiar with that. Why 1945 01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:45,800 Speaker 2: because University of Cincinnati's in there? Why do they end 1946 01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:47,800 Speaker 2: up in the Big Twelve? Because it's money. It's a 1947 01:31:47,800 --> 01:31:50,120 Speaker 2: great payday. School's gonna make a lot of money there. 1948 01:31:50,200 --> 01:31:51,920 Speaker 2: But I will tell you right here now, as much 1949 01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:53,920 Speaker 2: as I want to see them do well and win 1950 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:57,400 Speaker 2: in that conference, it's gonna take years. I mean, I 1951 01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:03,680 Speaker 2: don't understand how they could compete financially with nil with alums, 1952 01:32:03,680 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 2: with these other schools, how they can do this do 1953 01:32:07,640 --> 01:32:10,240 Speaker 2: it in the Big twelve. I mean, they were somewhat 1954 01:32:10,280 --> 01:32:13,320 Speaker 2: dominant when they were in a college conference USA because 1955 01:32:13,360 --> 01:32:15,639 Speaker 2: they were a big wig there, a fairly big market, 1956 01:32:15,800 --> 01:32:18,160 Speaker 2: had some money. I don't see, maybe I'm wrong. Help 1957 01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:20,719 Speaker 2: me out here. Can the University of since I compete 1958 01:32:21,080 --> 01:32:23,240 Speaker 2: a year in, year out and be competitive in the 1959 01:32:23,240 --> 01:32:24,400 Speaker 2: Big twelve in football? 1960 01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:29,080 Speaker 3: Maybe down the line. I mean, look, I said, and 1961 01:32:29,160 --> 01:32:33,200 Speaker 3: watched Utah change their recruiting profile and change how they 1962 01:32:33,920 --> 01:32:36,400 Speaker 3: had been able to recruit and compete in the Pac twelve. 1963 01:32:36,920 --> 01:32:38,960 Speaker 3: They were a team that wasn't in the back Pac twelve, 1964 01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:40,880 Speaker 3: but they eventually got better and better and better where 1965 01:32:40,920 --> 01:32:43,040 Speaker 3: they were able to win championships in the Pac twelve. 1966 01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:47,040 Speaker 3: For Cincinnati, it's the same thing. Playing up, as they 1967 01:32:47,080 --> 01:32:49,960 Speaker 3: would say, would give them an opportunity to expand the 1968 01:32:50,080 --> 01:32:53,639 Speaker 3: recruiting base. It would give them a chance to change 1969 01:32:53,720 --> 01:32:56,760 Speaker 3: their profile in terms of how people view them and 1970 01:32:56,800 --> 01:33:00,880 Speaker 3: respect them as like one of those teams in their tops. 1971 01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:03,040 Speaker 3: It may take some time, but they've competed. But remember 1972 01:33:03,080 --> 01:33:04,800 Speaker 3: this is a team that's competed in the playoffs, So 1973 01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:07,360 Speaker 3: they shouldn't feel like the little sister or the stepchild 1974 01:33:07,360 --> 01:33:09,679 Speaker 3: to anybody. It's just a different conference. They're just playing 1975 01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:11,519 Speaker 3: against different teams, but they should be able to compete 1976 01:33:11,520 --> 01:33:12,479 Speaker 3: and compete at a high level. 1977 01:33:12,600 --> 01:33:14,719 Speaker 2: Okay, let's go back to your good friend Deion Sanders, 1978 01:33:14,720 --> 01:33:17,759 Speaker 2: because again, you know, I know the media has taken 1979 01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:20,000 Speaker 2: shots at him, and so maybe it's envy. Maybe I 1980 01:33:20,040 --> 01:33:22,360 Speaker 2: don't know. They don't like his attitude, the bravado, whatever 1981 01:33:22,439 --> 01:33:25,360 Speaker 2: it may be. But he he had some great pub 1982 01:33:25,640 --> 01:33:27,960 Speaker 2: and I last year I remember sixty minutes to two 1983 01:33:28,200 --> 01:33:31,920 Speaker 2: big pieces on him, tremendous pieces. Maybe they made him shine, 1984 01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:34,160 Speaker 2: may mean it looked great. So for him to come 1985 01:33:34,200 --> 01:33:36,760 Speaker 2: back and do that, it just like you say, you 1986 01:33:36,840 --> 01:33:38,840 Speaker 2: can't win. It's not going to help him in the 1987 01:33:38,880 --> 01:33:40,040 Speaker 2: long run. It really won't. 1988 01:33:41,360 --> 01:33:43,040 Speaker 3: No, it won't. It won't help him in the long run. 1989 01:33:43,080 --> 01:33:45,000 Speaker 3: But also know like deand doesn't care, Like he's the 1990 01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:48,360 Speaker 3: same one that DAWs Tim McCarver with water when he 1991 01:33:48,439 --> 01:33:50,240 Speaker 3: was playing for the Atlanta Braids. Based on what Tim 1992 01:33:50,280 --> 01:33:53,639 Speaker 3: McCarver said about him and the World Series, I would 1993 01:33:53,640 --> 01:33:56,240 Speaker 3: say that Dion probably regrets that, and he may eventually 1994 01:33:57,080 --> 01:34:01,920 Speaker 3: regret going at the media hard. But also say this, 1995 01:34:02,360 --> 01:34:05,240 Speaker 3: because we're on this side where we can always attack. 1996 01:34:05,320 --> 01:34:07,720 Speaker 3: And remember, the media stuff has changed. It went from 1997 01:34:07,800 --> 01:34:10,240 Speaker 3: being a we're going to report the stuff to now 1998 01:34:10,280 --> 01:34:12,880 Speaker 3: have an opinion, and that opinion grows louder where everyone 1999 01:34:13,000 --> 01:34:17,160 Speaker 3: is an opinion based columnist that has an opportunity to 2000 01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:19,880 Speaker 3: weigh in loudly on what they think you should or 2001 01:34:19,880 --> 01:34:23,360 Speaker 3: shouldn't be doing. I can understand the annoyance, but you 2002 01:34:23,360 --> 01:34:25,559 Speaker 3: always want to handle yourself with class, and sometimes it 2003 01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:30,080 Speaker 3: does require you to fire back. And look, we'll see 2004 01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:32,920 Speaker 3: if he was just in firing back at CBS and 2005 01:34:32,960 --> 01:34:35,040 Speaker 3: some of the reporters, because I know he attacked the 2006 01:34:35,160 --> 01:34:38,080 Speaker 3: reporter from the Denver Post who's maybe put a bunch 2007 01:34:38,080 --> 01:34:42,679 Speaker 3: of negative things about him. But ultimately, you got to perform. 2008 01:34:42,960 --> 01:34:45,640 Speaker 3: And it's not gonna be easy for them given the 2009 01:34:45,680 --> 01:34:48,240 Speaker 3: schedule and they played North Dakota State right out the gate. 2010 01:34:49,200 --> 01:34:51,600 Speaker 3: It's gonna be a difficult situation. But they got to 2011 01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:53,040 Speaker 3: figure out a way to get it done because that's 2012 01:34:53,040 --> 01:34:54,360 Speaker 3: the only way he's going to shut them. 2013 01:34:54,320 --> 01:34:56,720 Speaker 2: Up, right, And you know what, He's not the first 2014 01:34:56,800 --> 01:34:58,320 Speaker 2: coach and it certainly won't be the last coach that 2015 01:34:58,439 --> 01:35:01,680 Speaker 2: exploded against media. Bill Belichick took a different approach. He 2016 01:35:01,760 --> 01:35:03,679 Speaker 2: just didn't talk to him at all. You know that 2017 01:35:03,680 --> 01:35:05,280 Speaker 2: they said, what do you think of this? When moving 2018 01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:06,840 Speaker 2: on to Cincinnati? That was his answer that. 2019 01:35:08,680 --> 01:35:10,560 Speaker 3: And there's something to that. But like even then, you 2020 01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:13,160 Speaker 3: got to think the only reason why people didn't tear 2021 01:35:13,200 --> 01:35:15,840 Speaker 3: Bill Belichick to shreds is because he won. And then 2022 01:35:15,880 --> 01:35:18,760 Speaker 3: in those final couple of seasons when it didn't go 2023 01:35:18,960 --> 01:35:20,560 Speaker 3: his way in the point, what do we do? We 2024 01:35:20,760 --> 01:35:24,000 Speaker 3: ripped in so you can't win. The power to pin 2025 01:35:24,160 --> 01:35:27,000 Speaker 3: is always superior. The only thing you can control is 2026 01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:29,040 Speaker 3: the performance between the lines. And he has to make 2027 01:35:29,080 --> 01:35:33,080 Speaker 3: sure that his performance between the line is terrific because 2028 01:35:33,880 --> 01:35:36,360 Speaker 3: what has been overshadowed with all the negative stuff of 2029 01:35:36,400 --> 01:35:39,000 Speaker 3: the positive things like the Greade point average, the people 2030 01:35:39,040 --> 01:35:42,599 Speaker 3: that are there, what they've done or whatever. It's just look, man, 2031 01:35:43,040 --> 01:35:45,559 Speaker 3: you're judged ultimately by the wins and losses. They gotta 2032 01:35:45,600 --> 01:35:47,160 Speaker 3: win more and he has to win more. 2033 01:35:47,160 --> 01:35:49,840 Speaker 2: In you two and the late Bob Knight, I mean, 2034 01:35:50,520 --> 01:35:52,400 Speaker 2: I think the media was someone fearful of and they 2035 01:35:52,400 --> 01:35:54,280 Speaker 2: were afraid of Bob Knight. They way were. I mean 2036 01:35:54,280 --> 01:35:55,760 Speaker 2: you go to a news conference, I went to several 2037 01:35:55,800 --> 01:35:57,960 Speaker 2: of them. I mean they were afraid to ask him 2038 01:35:57,960 --> 01:36:00,320 Speaker 2: a question they were afraid of. Talked to Bo night, 2039 01:36:00,320 --> 01:36:02,960 Speaker 2: they really were, and he'd chopped your head off. But 2040 01:36:03,040 --> 01:36:05,720 Speaker 2: again he won, that's the deal. But down the end 2041 01:36:05,760 --> 01:36:07,760 Speaker 2: of the stretch, at the end, and they got him, 2042 01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:08,840 Speaker 2: you know, the media was. 2043 01:36:09,800 --> 01:36:12,080 Speaker 3: They got them. They wait, they wait, they wait, and 2044 01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:15,080 Speaker 3: then it's funny because it's the same circular arc, right, 2045 01:36:15,120 --> 01:36:17,000 Speaker 3: so they drive you out, and then as soon as 2046 01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:20,679 Speaker 3: they drive you out, all of the reflective pieces about 2047 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:23,519 Speaker 3: how wonderful you were right comes right and they get that. 2048 01:36:23,640 --> 01:36:25,720 Speaker 3: Like so it just is one of those things you 2049 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:28,120 Speaker 3: can never win. Like, we're really governing, particularly on the 2050 01:36:28,160 --> 01:36:31,200 Speaker 3: media side, by the power of the click, and so 2051 01:36:31,320 --> 01:36:33,639 Speaker 3: much of what is done now is all about generating 2052 01:36:33,680 --> 01:36:35,719 Speaker 3: clicks and having a lot of attention. And everyone wants 2053 01:36:35,760 --> 01:36:39,720 Speaker 3: to get uh the attention by being outlandish or polarizing. 2054 01:36:39,800 --> 01:36:41,960 Speaker 3: And that's just the way the media business is right now. 2055 01:36:42,320 --> 01:36:46,599 Speaker 2: It's amazing, you're exactly right right about you. You attack them, 2056 01:36:46,640 --> 01:36:48,720 Speaker 2: they'll beat you up, they'll tear you down. And then 2057 01:36:48,760 --> 01:36:51,360 Speaker 2: when you get thrown out of it and basically, and 2058 01:36:51,400 --> 01:36:54,200 Speaker 2: I saw recently with Tom Brenneman, you know Tom brond 2059 01:36:54,240 --> 01:36:57,200 Speaker 2: the announcer, you know what he slip got back. You 2060 01:36:57,320 --> 01:36:58,960 Speaker 2: just got back that all of a sudden. Oh, it's 2061 01:36:59,000 --> 01:37:01,400 Speaker 2: great that he's back. He deserved to be backing of it. 2062 01:37:01,439 --> 01:37:03,080 Speaker 2: But but you were to say people that said that 2063 01:37:03,120 --> 01:37:05,760 Speaker 2: he should have been fired, you know, because what he says, 2064 01:37:05,760 --> 01:37:08,160 Speaker 2: slip of the tongue. I mean, it's an amazing how 2065 01:37:08,160 --> 01:37:10,000 Speaker 2: the cycle goes, right, it's crazy. 2066 01:37:10,960 --> 01:37:13,559 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, the cycle goes And yeah, it took I 2067 01:37:13,560 --> 01:37:16,200 Speaker 3: think Brendan four years before he was back in. Yeah, 2068 01:37:16,360 --> 01:37:20,519 Speaker 3: after the incident, and yeah, like I mean, it's always 2069 01:37:20,640 --> 01:37:22,519 Speaker 3: going to be like that. And Nick Saban has said 2070 01:37:22,520 --> 01:37:25,760 Speaker 3: this about the media whenever a player messes up, like 2071 01:37:25,800 --> 01:37:27,680 Speaker 3: there was always a lot of pressure on him to 2072 01:37:28,120 --> 01:37:29,760 Speaker 3: he when you're gonna throw them out, when you're gonna 2073 01:37:29,760 --> 01:37:32,479 Speaker 3: dismiss this player from the program, And he said, maybe 2074 01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:34,080 Speaker 3: it's best for us to keep the guy in the 2075 01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:37,280 Speaker 3: program so we can help him rehabilitate his image and 2076 01:37:37,320 --> 01:37:41,160 Speaker 3: learn from creating expressions as opposed to dismissing them. Because 2077 01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:44,920 Speaker 3: what happens is, Okay, we go hard, we get the 2078 01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:46,960 Speaker 3: player out of there. Then what we're on to the 2079 01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:49,000 Speaker 3: next story. And so it's really not about the well 2080 01:37:49,040 --> 01:37:52,280 Speaker 3: being of the person that you're talking about it's about 2081 01:37:52,320 --> 01:37:55,640 Speaker 3: like just the media and the lynch mob mentality when 2082 01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:58,000 Speaker 3: it comes to people that mess up or the shortcomings 2083 01:37:58,000 --> 01:37:58,640 Speaker 3: their feelings. 2084 01:37:58,800 --> 01:38:00,639 Speaker 2: But we're not part of the lynch mob all the way. 2085 01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:01,519 Speaker 2: I mean, you and me, I don't. 2086 01:38:01,560 --> 01:38:03,160 Speaker 3: I don't think no. I mean sometimes I can, I 2087 01:38:03,160 --> 01:38:04,519 Speaker 3: can throw a shot every now and then, but I 2088 01:38:04,600 --> 01:38:07,040 Speaker 3: understand it. I understand the role that that that we 2089 01:38:07,200 --> 01:38:10,200 Speaker 3: play in it, and I get that. But sometimes even 2090 01:38:10,240 --> 01:38:12,639 Speaker 3: being on the inside, you can get tired of it. 2091 01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:15,600 Speaker 2: Well, I agree, I think. Look, there's something different to 2092 01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:17,400 Speaker 2: be said by me that if a coach makes a 2093 01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:19,439 Speaker 2: call at the end of the game, and you look 2094 01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:22,599 Speaker 2: in that Super Bowl when Seattle was playing against New England, 2095 01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:24,120 Speaker 2: I mean, that was a silly call and you could 2096 01:38:24,160 --> 01:38:26,679 Speaker 2: criticize that, but you don't have to attack the coach 2097 01:38:26,720 --> 01:38:29,000 Speaker 2: for making that call, but just you question it. That's 2098 01:38:29,360 --> 01:38:32,760 Speaker 2: there's a difference than attacking and questioning. And again with 2099 01:38:32,800 --> 01:38:34,920 Speaker 2: the Deon Sanders thing, I just feel bad because I 2100 01:38:34,960 --> 01:38:37,200 Speaker 2: do like Dan and what he did. He went off 2101 01:38:37,240 --> 01:38:39,639 Speaker 2: of these guys and you know, again, like you say, 2102 01:38:39,680 --> 01:38:42,439 Speaker 2: he doesn't care, but he can't win, and they're gonna 2103 01:38:42,439 --> 01:38:45,479 Speaker 2: they're gonna get him. They will you know. And if 2104 01:38:45,520 --> 01:38:48,080 Speaker 2: he happens to leave Colorado on his own, or they 2105 01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:50,960 Speaker 2: throw him out, whatever happens, they'll say I told you so. 2106 01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:53,120 Speaker 2: And then then it'll resurface somewhere and they'll say what 2107 01:38:53,120 --> 01:38:55,160 Speaker 2: a great coach he was. That's the cyclist, just the 2108 01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:58,519 Speaker 2: way it is. I know. It's if the script is written, 2109 01:38:58,560 --> 01:39:03,880 Speaker 2: that's it, right. He's Brooks for sure, unreal Bucket Brooks 2110 01:39:03,880 --> 01:39:06,080 Speaker 2: on Twitter out ex at Bucket Brooks at Andy Ferman 2111 01:39:06,240 --> 01:39:09,280 Speaker 2: FSR eight seven seven ninety nine one Fox.

Okay, and 2148 01:40:58,360 --> 01:41:00,840 Speaker 2: it may be worse this year, may be tougher, but 2149 01:41:00,920 --> 01:41:02,960 Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna go from worse to first. 2150 01:41:03,080 --> 01:41:04,599 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna have a tough few of people 2151 01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:06,840 Speaker 2: are in and around Cincinnati, God bless them. They think 2152 01:41:06,880 --> 01:41:08,800 Speaker 2: they're going to the super Bowl. I'll be happy if 2153 01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:11,479 Speaker 2: they make the playoffs. Really, they got a new running 2154 01:41:11,520 --> 01:41:13,040 Speaker 2: back in Zach Moss. I don't know if that's an 2155 01:41:13,120 --> 01:41:15,920 Speaker 2: upgrade or not. Chase Brown backing up there in the 2156 01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:18,519 Speaker 2: running back position, I don't know. Joe Mixon's gone. I 2157 01:41:18,520 --> 01:41:20,800 Speaker 2: think that's a loss. Tyler Boyd's gone. I think that's 2158 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:23,360 Speaker 2: a loss. And I watched them last night. They still 2159 01:41:23,360 --> 01:41:26,240 Speaker 2: can't stop the run. I know it's exhibition. Defense is 2160 01:41:26,280 --> 01:41:28,680 Speaker 2: gonna be the Achilles heel of this team. Make a 2161 01:41:28,760 --> 01:41:31,800 Speaker 2: case for my Cincinnati Bengals Bucket Brooks. 2162 01:41:32,520 --> 01:41:34,800 Speaker 3: Look at starts and starts with Joe Burrow. As long 2163 01:41:34,800 --> 01:41:36,040 Speaker 3: as you got Joe Burrow in the mix, you have 2164 01:41:36,040 --> 01:41:38,240 Speaker 3: an opportunity one of the best quarterbacks in the league 2165 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:40,400 Speaker 3: when he is healthy and available to Sincinny Bengals winning. 2166 01:41:40,439 --> 01:41:42,720 Speaker 3: They win at a high clip when you have him 2167 01:41:42,720 --> 01:41:46,320 Speaker 3: and Jamar Chase Anti Higgins, Chase Brown emerging as a 2168 01:41:46,400 --> 01:41:49,000 Speaker 3: running back, and Zach Moss like I mean, they have 2169 01:41:49,200 --> 01:41:52,560 Speaker 3: enough to be able to go after people offensively. Defensively, 2170 01:41:52,640 --> 01:41:54,920 Speaker 3: there's some work that needs to be done, but they've 2171 01:41:54,920 --> 01:41:58,240 Speaker 3: tried to address some of those situations. Geno Stone coming over, 2172 01:41:58,360 --> 01:42:03,040 Speaker 3: bringing some veteran to kind of help the young guys 2173 01:42:03,040 --> 01:42:05,200 Speaker 3: that they were rolling out with. Lou Anamrumo when he 2174 01:42:05,240 --> 01:42:08,559 Speaker 3: has the firepower, he is a really good defensive coordinator. 2175 01:42:08,600 --> 01:42:10,320 Speaker 3: I think they get back on track. But Joe b 2176 01:42:10,920 --> 01:42:12,719 Speaker 3: is really the reason why you can count on them. 2177 01:42:12,760 --> 01:42:14,880 Speaker 3: Whenever he's on the field, they have a chance, and 2178 01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:16,200 Speaker 3: I like their chances. 2179 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:18,479 Speaker 2: I'm glad to hear that. I glad he played last night. 2180 01:42:18,520 --> 01:42:20,280 Speaker 2: He looked decent. He led him to a score in 2181 01:42:20,320 --> 01:42:22,040 Speaker 2: the first quarter, then he sat down the rest of 2182 01:42:22,080 --> 01:42:24,080 Speaker 2: the game. But you know, if he's healthy, You're right, 2183 01:42:24,280 --> 01:42:26,360 Speaker 2: they go as he goes. That's the way it is, 2184 01:42:26,520 --> 01:42:28,640 Speaker 2: all right. I'm going with the Chicago Bears next, and 2185 01:42:28,680 --> 01:42:32,599 Speaker 2: I'm gonna say why they may not go worse to first. 2186 01:42:33,479 --> 01:42:35,320 Speaker 2: And we talked about this at the top of the show. 2187 01:42:35,800 --> 01:42:40,760 Speaker 2: So many unreasonable expectations that come with the first round 2188 01:42:40,840 --> 01:42:43,599 Speaker 2: quarterback draft pick as a heights been winner in Kayleb Williams. 2189 01:42:43,760 --> 01:42:46,559 Speaker 2: The pressure is ridiculous. And after they won last night, 2190 01:42:46,640 --> 01:42:50,160 Speaker 2: well yesterday afternoon against Buffalo, and he looked good, he 2191 01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:54,439 Speaker 2: really did. But it's preseason, it's exhibition. People are salivating already. 2192 01:42:54,479 --> 01:42:57,200 Speaker 2: I just think there's so much pressure there. Yet he's 2193 01:42:57,240 --> 01:43:00,920 Speaker 2: surrounded with some good offensive talent in DJ More, Keenan Allen, 2194 01:43:01,200 --> 01:43:04,400 Speaker 2: the first round pick on Doosey. I just don't think 2195 01:43:04,400 --> 01:43:07,519 Speaker 2: it's gonna happen yet. Give him time to develop, let 2196 01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:10,800 Speaker 2: him breathe. Expectations are crazy. Go ahead, bucket on the 2197 01:43:10,880 --> 01:43:11,799 Speaker 2: Chicago Bears. 2198 01:43:13,600 --> 01:43:15,960 Speaker 3: Chicago Bears a better off of last year. So you 2199 01:43:15,960 --> 01:43:19,200 Speaker 3: think about the way they finished, defense found their stride. 2200 01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:22,320 Speaker 3: Matt Eberflus took over, did a really good job of 2201 01:43:22,320 --> 01:43:25,439 Speaker 3: calling plays and got the defense playing well. Monte Sweat 2202 01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:28,880 Speaker 3: looked like a dominant player in a Bears uniform. So defensively, 2203 01:43:29,160 --> 01:43:31,800 Speaker 3: they're beginning to play the style that he wants. And 2204 01:43:31,920 --> 01:43:34,439 Speaker 3: that's really good because if they played the band but 2205 01:43:34,800 --> 01:43:37,360 Speaker 3: don't break style of defense that he wants, then it's 2206 01:43:37,439 --> 01:43:39,960 Speaker 3: on Caleb Williams and the offense to get going. When 2207 01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:44,200 Speaker 3: I look at the offense, Caleb Williams at quarterback, Kendan Allen, 2208 01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:47,080 Speaker 3: DJ Moore of Romer, Doonzay Hard Trio to stot Cole 2209 01:43:47,160 --> 01:43:49,040 Speaker 3: Comet being able to control the middle of the field 2210 01:43:49,080 --> 01:43:51,880 Speaker 3: as a tight end, DeAndre Swift in the backfield. They're 2211 01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:54,920 Speaker 3: loaded on offense. So offensively, man, if a quarterback, the 2212 01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:58,360 Speaker 3: young quarterback can quickly acclimate to the game, this offense 2213 01:43:58,479 --> 01:44:02,080 Speaker 3: can put up twenty seven to thirty points a game, 2214 01:44:02,320 --> 01:44:05,160 Speaker 3: they're gonna be in the conversation. So I like the Bears. 2215 01:44:05,240 --> 01:44:07,120 Speaker 3: I like what they've done throughout the off season, but 2216 01:44:07,120 --> 01:44:08,679 Speaker 3: it all hinges on the play of the quarterback. 2217 01:44:09,120 --> 01:44:11,240 Speaker 2: All Right, the man has set the stage. The spotlights 2218 01:44:11,240 --> 01:44:13,720 Speaker 2: are on this guy. Jim Harbar, coach of the Los 2219 01:44:13,760 --> 01:44:16,800 Speaker 2: Angeles Chargers. Here's my question here. The last time he 2220 01:44:16,880 --> 01:44:19,120 Speaker 2: coached in an NFL game was like ten years ago. 2221 01:44:20,040 --> 01:44:22,599 Speaker 2: The league has changed. I mean, if you coach your coach, 2222 01:44:22,640 --> 01:44:24,360 Speaker 2: I mean, you know the game and you've told me 2223 01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:26,639 Speaker 2: many a time it's not so much exras and o's 2224 01:44:26,720 --> 01:44:30,120 Speaker 2: is how you develop relationships with players. And apparently from 2225 01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:32,680 Speaker 2: a distance, what I'm seeing and hearing and reading is 2226 01:44:32,720 --> 01:44:36,880 Speaker 2: that he's got these guys like really relisting to him, 2227 01:44:36,920 --> 01:44:40,120 Speaker 2: respecting him, and they got talent. But I just don't 2228 01:44:40,120 --> 01:44:41,880 Speaker 2: know if they could get it done. This team has 2229 01:44:41,920 --> 01:44:44,559 Speaker 2: always been a team that gave away games in the 2230 01:44:44,600 --> 01:44:46,760 Speaker 2: fourth quarter. I hope he can make the difference. I 2231 01:44:46,760 --> 01:44:49,040 Speaker 2: don't know if they can. And again, Herbert's been a 2232 01:44:49,080 --> 01:44:51,200 Speaker 2: little injured. That could be a major factor. So I 2233 01:44:51,240 --> 01:44:54,360 Speaker 2: think there's a question mark there with the LA Chargers. 2234 01:44:55,080 --> 01:44:56,840 Speaker 3: I mean there's a question mark, dear, like you wonder 2235 01:44:57,040 --> 01:44:59,240 Speaker 3: like there's been a bit of a talent Drane, Mike Williams, 2236 01:44:59,280 --> 01:45:02,519 Speaker 3: Kenyon and Allen departed. But this team is gonna be 2237 01:45:02,520 --> 01:45:05,639 Speaker 3: different the Baltimore West. They're gonna run the football. Greg 2238 01:45:05,720 --> 01:45:07,599 Speaker 3: Roman comes over, They're gonna try and get it done 2239 01:45:07,640 --> 01:45:11,639 Speaker 3: with Gus Edwards and JK. Dobbins punishing people between the tackles. 2240 01:45:12,040 --> 01:45:13,920 Speaker 3: Justin Herbert is still there, even though he's dealing with 2241 01:45:13,920 --> 01:45:17,600 Speaker 3: the Liz Frank injury. Can you allow him to be 2242 01:45:18,000 --> 01:45:19,960 Speaker 3: a compliment to what you want to do offensively in 2243 01:45:20,040 --> 01:45:23,000 Speaker 3: terms of running the football, throwing off play action, taking 2244 01:45:23,000 --> 01:45:26,759 Speaker 3: shot Steve to an unheralded cast of playmakers on the perimeter. 2245 01:45:27,080 --> 01:45:30,559 Speaker 3: And then defensively, Jesse Mentor was taking over the defense, 2246 01:45:30,880 --> 01:45:34,280 Speaker 3: maybe being a little more attacking than Brandon Staley, but 2247 01:45:35,560 --> 01:45:38,200 Speaker 3: finding a way to mix in some simulated pressures in 2248 01:45:38,240 --> 01:45:41,920 Speaker 3: those things to allow them to have maximum coverage. Look, 2249 01:45:41,960 --> 01:45:44,000 Speaker 3: it's hard to bet against Harvard. Everywhere he's gone. He's 2250 01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:50,960 Speaker 3: won everywhere San Diego, Sanford, San Francisco, Michigan, while Whitney 2251 01:45:51,040 --> 01:45:53,760 Speaker 3: went in LA.

And I got 2355 01:50:48,000 --> 01:50:50,479 Speaker 2: the proof right here Chris last year and that lead 2356 01:50:50,560 --> 01:50:53,840 Speaker 2: up to that rivalry game between Colorado his school and 2357 01:50:53,920 --> 01:50:57,280 Speaker 2: Colorado State, and that game was last September. The coach 2358 01:50:57,320 --> 01:51:00,679 Speaker 2: of Colorado State, Jay Norvell, took a shot at Deon 2359 01:51:00,800 --> 01:51:03,920 Speaker 2: Sanders and he said, quote when I talked to grownups, 2360 01:51:03,920 --> 01:51:07,080 Speaker 2: he said, I take my hat and glasses off. That's 2361 01:51:07,120 --> 01:51:10,800 Speaker 2: what my mother taught me that that's ridiculous. That's just 2362 01:51:10,920 --> 01:51:13,960 Speaker 2: a below the belt comment that he made to Don 2363 01:51:14,200 --> 01:51:18,320 Speaker 2: because Dillon always wears those glasses, he always wears the sunglass. 2364 01:51:18,320 --> 01:51:21,200 Speaker 2: He always wears a cowboy hat. But the comments did 2365 01:51:21,280 --> 01:51:23,479 Speaker 2: much more than just fuel the tension for the game. 2366 01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:26,360 Speaker 2: And by the way, Colorado and Dion won that game. 2367 01:51:26,439 --> 01:51:28,320 Speaker 2: They beat the Rams forty three to thirty five in 2368 01:51:28,360 --> 01:51:32,799 Speaker 2: double overtime. But they helped launch get this, a multi 2369 01:51:32,880 --> 01:51:39,040 Speaker 2: million dollar viral sunglasses campaign. Unbelievable. The Sanders sunglasses campaign 2370 01:51:39,160 --> 01:51:42,880 Speaker 2: was underway before the comments, obviously, but the CEO of 2371 01:51:43,040 --> 01:51:47,040 Speaker 2: Smaac Entertainment, which represents Sanders in the off the field 2372 01:51:47,040 --> 01:51:49,840 Speaker 2: deals that he has, they teamed up with a Blender's 2373 01:51:49,960 --> 01:51:52,920 Speaker 2: I wear and they were working on his own line, 2374 01:51:53,080 --> 01:51:56,560 Speaker 2: but the product was not slated to launch until last November. 2375 01:51:56,840 --> 01:52:01,240 Speaker 2: But when Novelle attacked Sanders for the indoor unglasses, the 2376 01:52:01,320 --> 01:52:04,440 Speaker 2: company kicked it into the high gear and court. Dion's 2377 01:52:04,479 --> 01:52:07,360 Speaker 2: mom didn't appreciate that too much. This is what the 2378 01:52:07,400 --> 01:52:10,320 Speaker 2: company said just the other day. But when Coach novel 2379 01:52:10,439 --> 01:52:13,599 Speaker 2: decided to take a shot at Dion's mom, we literally said, 2380 01:52:13,760 --> 01:52:16,759 Speaker 2: get the factories going, We're going to launch these glasses 2381 01:52:16,800 --> 01:52:20,280 Speaker 2: this week. And they did, and it's unbelievable. They promoted 2382 01:52:20,280 --> 01:52:23,519 Speaker 2: something between sixty seven thousand and seventy two thousand pre 2383 01:52:23,640 --> 01:52:26,840 Speaker 2: sales in less than a week. Unbelievable. But the coach 2384 01:52:26,840 --> 01:52:28,679 Speaker 2: of Colorado states a schmuck is you got a cut 2385 01:52:28,680 --> 01:52:28,840 Speaker 2: of that? 2386 01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:29,240 Speaker 3: Really? 2387 01:52:29,360 --> 01:52:33,200 Speaker 2: Who was his deal? But who knows? Stop attacking Dion Sanders. 2388 01:52:33,320 --> 01:52:36,800 Speaker 2: You can't win. You can't win, you can't I love it. 2389 01:52:36,960 --> 01:52:39,000 Speaker 3: No, I mean, look, he's a target because he puts 2390 01:52:39,080 --> 01:52:40,680 Speaker 3: himself out there and there's a lot of tension that 2391 01:52:40,720 --> 01:52:42,720 Speaker 3: comes along with it. We saw the Oregon coach Dan 2392 01:52:42,800 --> 01:52:46,000 Speaker 3: Lanning play for the cameras during the game where they 2393 01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:48,560 Speaker 3: were beating Colorado down. We saw the pregame speech and 2394 01:52:48,600 --> 01:52:51,040 Speaker 3: all that other stuff that comes with the territory, high 2395 01:52:51,040 --> 01:52:53,559 Speaker 3: profile coach. You have to understand that Dion has done 2396 01:52:53,560 --> 01:52:55,920 Speaker 3: a lot of talking and so he has to live 2397 01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:57,320 Speaker 3: with it. He has to back it up. You know, 2398 01:52:57,360 --> 01:52:59,479 Speaker 3: the only thing that people really care about did you 2399 01:52:59,520 --> 01:53:01,799 Speaker 3: win it? Did you lose? All that other stuff in between? 2400 01:53:01,800 --> 01:53:04,840 Speaker 3: No one cares when you win. To the victor goes 2401 01:53:04,880 --> 01:53:07,479 Speaker 3: to spoils and so you got to win. If you 2402 01:53:07,479 --> 01:53:08,600 Speaker 3: want to be on the other side of if you 2403 01:53:08,640 --> 01:53:10,240 Speaker 3: want to talk and walk around and do all that, 2404 01:53:10,320 --> 01:53:12,360 Speaker 3: you have to be able to do it. You got 2405 01:53:12,400 --> 01:53:13,880 Speaker 3: to win, and you got to win at high level. 2406 01:53:14,280 --> 01:53:16,519 Speaker 2: You know what, I hear what you're saying, and certainly 2407 01:53:16,520 --> 01:53:20,920 Speaker 2: the bottom line is winning. But people's images, people's opinions 2408 01:53:21,120 --> 01:53:24,120 Speaker 2: are shaped by the images and what people say. Because 2409 01:53:24,200 --> 01:53:28,080 Speaker 2: I don't know coach Norville from Madam mean that a lineup, 2410 01:53:28,120 --> 01:53:30,000 Speaker 2: I couldn't pick them out. I don't like them. I 2411 01:53:30,040 --> 01:53:31,360 Speaker 2: don't like the guy. I don't like what he said 2412 01:53:31,360 --> 01:53:33,840 Speaker 2: about the understandings. I just don't like. There's certain things 2413 01:53:33,960 --> 01:53:36,960 Speaker 2: when you see TV interviews with various players, you read 2414 01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:39,960 Speaker 2: about what they do, you in your mind form an 2415 01:53:39,960 --> 01:53:42,400 Speaker 2: image on how they do it, what they say, how 2416 01:53:42,439 --> 01:53:45,519 Speaker 2: they look, how they represent themselves, and that just it's sad, 2417 01:53:45,600 --> 01:53:47,240 Speaker 2: but that's the way it is. You know, in a 2418 01:53:47,240 --> 01:53:50,120 Speaker 2: little bit of a sound bite on radio, you could 2419 01:53:50,160 --> 01:53:52,320 Speaker 2: form an opinion on an athlete and just just the 2420 01:53:52,320 --> 01:53:52,840 Speaker 2: way it is. 2421 01:53:53,920 --> 01:53:55,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is the way it is, and it's always 2422 01:53:55,360 --> 01:53:56,800 Speaker 3: going to be like that. You have to understand that 2423 01:53:57,720 --> 01:53:59,760 Speaker 3: you got to make sure that you put yourself in 2424 01:53:59,800 --> 01:54:02,160 Speaker 3: a position to take care of your business, and you 2425 01:54:02,200 --> 01:54:04,360 Speaker 3: can control what you can control. With the other stuff 2426 01:54:04,360 --> 01:54:06,960 Speaker 3: you can't really worry about. But if you're doing your best, 2427 01:54:07,040 --> 01:54:08,800 Speaker 3: you're living right, you're doing good things, then you can't 2428 01:54:08,800 --> 01:54:10,840 Speaker 3: worry about all that other stuff. And for Dianna and 2429 01:54:10,840 --> 01:54:14,080 Speaker 3: the people within the program, if they're doing the right stuff, 2430 01:54:14,240 --> 01:54:17,400 Speaker 3: ultimately the light would be put on the good things 2431 01:54:17,439 --> 01:54:18,680 Speaker 3: that they're doing right. 2432 01:54:18,960 --> 01:54:21,960 Speaker 2: Look, I love Pete Rose. Years ago, I worked at 2433 01:54:22,000 --> 01:54:24,200 Speaker 2: a racetrack. I was a PR guy and during the 2434 01:54:24,240 --> 01:54:26,320 Speaker 2: winter months, he would be there every night. I love 2435 01:54:26,600 --> 01:54:28,880 Speaker 2: We got to know each other rather well. And I 2436 01:54:28,920 --> 01:54:31,320 Speaker 2: watched that HBO special about a week or two ago, 2437 01:54:31,920 --> 01:54:34,080 Speaker 2: and I honestly think it didn't put him in a 2438 01:54:34,160 --> 01:54:36,800 Speaker 2: nice light. It wasn't the Pete Rose that I know 2439 01:54:36,840 --> 01:54:39,080 Speaker 2: who was a fun guy, a real funny guy, a 2440 01:54:39,120 --> 01:54:42,400 Speaker 2: friendly guy. He'd stop and sign autogrip to anybody and everybody. 2441 01:54:42,400 --> 01:54:44,880 Speaker 2: And there was one incident in that show on HBO 2442 01:54:45,160 --> 01:54:47,640 Speaker 2: when a female reporter in Philadelphia asked him a question. 2443 01:54:48,240 --> 01:54:50,920 Speaker 2: He came back to celebrate the nineteen eighty World Championship 2444 01:54:51,200 --> 01:54:53,560 Speaker 2: team in Philadelphia. He was there with the guys and 2445 01:54:53,560 --> 01:54:56,000 Speaker 2: some woman reporter came up to him and said, you 2446 01:54:56,040 --> 01:54:58,440 Speaker 2: know what about an alleged incident that you have with 2447 01:54:58,480 --> 01:55:01,880 Speaker 2: a young female years only had to say was that 2448 01:55:02,200 --> 01:55:04,600 Speaker 2: today's not the day and time to talk about that. 2449 01:55:04,840 --> 01:55:07,640 Speaker 2: I'm here to celebrate this event with my fellow teammates. 2450 01:55:07,880 --> 01:55:09,880 Speaker 2: But he went nuts on her and said that was 2451 01:55:09,920 --> 01:55:12,120 Speaker 2: fifty years ago. What do you care about, it's under 2452 01:55:12,160 --> 01:55:15,840 Speaker 2: your business. It was wrong. I understand it. It kind 2453 01:55:15,840 --> 01:55:18,720 Speaker 2: of set him off. But you just can't do that. 2454 01:55:18,840 --> 01:55:22,320 Speaker 2: You just you gotta take a breath before you talk, right, 2455 01:55:22,360 --> 01:55:24,640 Speaker 2: You gotta wait. You gotta wait, you get. 2456 01:55:24,560 --> 01:55:27,400 Speaker 3: A pause, you gotta pause and think, you gotta think. 2457 01:55:27,560 --> 01:55:28,760 Speaker 3: You gotta take your time to think. 2458 01:55:29,120 --> 01:55:30,720 Speaker 2: I need to do that here sometimes too. 2459 01:55:31,080 --> 01:55:31,680 Speaker 3: There you go. 2460 01:55:32,000 --> 01:55:35,080 Speaker 2: All right, he's Bucky Brooks, I'm Andy Furman.

No, it's your fault. 2479 01:56:19,280 --> 01:56:23,040 Speaker 9: What is all your fault? 2480 01:56:24,080 --> 01:56:27,840 Speaker 1: Maybe it's everyone's fault. Who knows he's a liar.

Okay, I'm sorry. Here we go the 2485 01:56:34,600 --> 01:56:36,960 Speaker 2: IMN I man, get it going with the blame gate. 2486 01:56:37,000 --> 01:56:39,720 Speaker 9: All right, let's get the ball rolling. So we'll start 2487 01:56:39,760 --> 01:56:44,960 Speaker 9: with this. The Patriots released veteran wide receiver Juju Smith Schuster, Andy, 2488 01:56:45,000 --> 01:56:45,640 Speaker 9: who do you blame? 2489 01:56:46,040 --> 01:56:48,200 Speaker 2: I tell you what? Though they announced that and they 2490 01:56:48,200 --> 01:56:50,600 Speaker 2: say it's because of a veteran. They want to go 2491 01:56:50,640 --> 01:56:53,800 Speaker 2: to a younger audience or a younger personnel. It's bull, 2492 01:56:54,000 --> 01:56:56,240 Speaker 2: It's money. You got a problem. It's all about money. 2493 01:56:56,280 --> 01:56:59,120 Speaker 2: How do you release Juju Smith Schuster? I love the guy. 2494 01:56:59,280 --> 01:57:01,280 Speaker 2: He could play the game, and they say they don't 2495 01:57:01,280 --> 01:57:03,800 Speaker 2: want it because they want to go younger. Bull, the 2496 01:57:03,880 --> 01:57:05,760 Speaker 2: team can't win. You need a guy, You need a 2497 01:57:05,840 --> 01:57:06,520 Speaker 2: veteran guy. 2498 01:57:07,280 --> 01:57:07,760 Speaker 9: Bucky. 2499 01:57:08,520 --> 01:57:10,200 Speaker 3: I mean, he may need a veteran guy, but he 2500 01:57:10,240 --> 01:57:13,360 Speaker 3: wasn't really productive anymore. Like he had that great rookie 2501 01:57:13,400 --> 01:57:15,600 Speaker 3: season when he played with AB but he's never been 2502 01:57:15,640 --> 01:57:17,960 Speaker 3: the same guy since that point. Last year he had 2503 01:57:18,000 --> 01:57:19,960 Speaker 3: twenty nine catches, only two hundred and sixty yards in 2504 01:57:19,960 --> 01:57:22,520 Speaker 3: a touchdown nine yards per catch. That's not enough to 2505 01:57:22,600 --> 01:57:25,640 Speaker 3: keep him around. I am applauding did New England pages 2506 01:57:25,680 --> 01:57:27,280 Speaker 3: for moving on put the younger guys out there so 2507 01:57:27,320 --> 01:57:29,320 Speaker 3: they can grow with the young quarterback. 2508 01:57:29,240 --> 01:57:33,120 Speaker 9: Boom Sticking to the NFL after it seemed like a 2509 01:57:33,160 --> 01:57:35,880 Speaker 9: trade was inevitable, the forty nine ers in Brandon Ayuk 2510 01:57:35,920 --> 01:57:39,680 Speaker 9: have reopened their contract discussions. Nothing's guaranteed, obviously, but it 2511 01:57:39,720 --> 01:57:42,480 Speaker 9: actually came after Amari Cooper, the Brown receiver, put on 2512 01:57:42,480 --> 01:57:45,280 Speaker 9: his Instagram story quote, I wouldn't be mad you know 2513 01:57:45,360 --> 01:57:47,720 Speaker 9: when he was rumored to be involved in those Niners 2514 01:57:47,760 --> 01:57:50,520 Speaker 9: trade rumors, But Bucky, who do you blame? 2515 01:57:52,040 --> 01:57:54,320 Speaker 3: Look, man, the whole Brandon Ayuk thing just drives me 2516 01:57:54,400 --> 01:57:57,000 Speaker 3: crazy because like the Niners have all the leverage in 2517 01:57:57,040 --> 01:57:59,720 Speaker 3: this situation he's holding in. They need to get it 2518 01:57:59,760 --> 01:58:01,800 Speaker 3: res because right now, what I do is I see 2519 01:58:01,800 --> 01:58:03,880 Speaker 3: a team that has a Super Bowl hangover at some 2520 01:58:03,960 --> 01:58:05,800 Speaker 3: point to nine is and now you've got to agree. 2521 01:58:05,800 --> 01:58:08,000 Speaker 3: He has to figure out what the number is and 2522 01:58:08,040 --> 01:58:09,520 Speaker 3: they just got to meet him there and then just 2523 01:58:09,520 --> 01:58:11,040 Speaker 3: be done with it. If they want him back as 2524 01:58:11,040 --> 01:58:12,600 Speaker 3: the number one, did they need to pay him? 2525 01:58:13,160 --> 01:58:16,800 Speaker 2: Can you please do this behind closed doors. I'm getting 2526 01:58:16,800 --> 01:58:19,520 Speaker 2: a little sick and tired of reading about the forty 2527 01:58:19,640 --> 01:58:22,080 Speaker 2: nine ers and Brandon. I either do it or don't 2528 01:58:22,080 --> 01:58:25,040 Speaker 2: do it. Make up your freaking mind already given the 2529 01:58:25,120 --> 01:58:27,720 Speaker 2: money you don't, I don't understand. And Brandon, if you 2530 01:58:27,720 --> 01:58:30,080 Speaker 2: don't want to play for him, move on. Somebody else 2531 01:58:30,080 --> 01:58:32,880 Speaker 2: will take you. But enough already, it's ugly. I want 2532 01:58:32,920 --> 01:58:37,120 Speaker 2: to read about football and games, not about money and negotiations. 2533 01:58:37,600 --> 01:58:40,800 Speaker 9: All right, Olympics topic here, there is break dancing in 2534 01:58:40,840 --> 01:58:43,440 Speaker 9: the Olympics. As you guys, were talking about earlier. Still 2535 01:58:43,480 --> 01:58:45,640 Speaker 9: no baseball though, So who do you blame? Andy? 2536 01:58:46,400 --> 01:58:48,560 Speaker 2: I blame the United States. I'll tell you why. Because 2537 01:58:48,560 --> 01:58:51,200 Speaker 2: they know they can't compete on the world stage in baseball. 2538 01:58:51,400 --> 01:58:53,880 Speaker 2: They're afraid and the Major League Baseball is going to 2539 01:58:53,920 --> 01:58:56,560 Speaker 2: put some pressure on the US Olympic Committee because they 2540 01:58:56,560 --> 01:58:59,880 Speaker 2: don't want to upset their baseball season in the middle 2541 01:58:59,920 --> 01:59:02,880 Speaker 2: of the summer to take their athletes away to play 2542 01:59:02,880 --> 01:59:06,040 Speaker 2: in the Olympics. So I blame the US of a breakdancing. 2543 01:59:06,240 --> 01:59:08,280 Speaker 2: You know what, though, they probably needed to fill a 2544 01:59:08,360 --> 01:59:12,880 Speaker 2: spot really, because as they in sport, that's for sure, Bucky. 2545 01:59:13,560 --> 01:59:16,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, MLB has to sign off on participation because it's 2546 01:59:16,880 --> 01:59:18,480 Speaker 3: not going to work if you don't allow the Major 2547 01:59:18,560 --> 01:59:21,240 Speaker 3: leaguers to participate. When you look at the World Baseball 2548 01:59:21,240 --> 01:59:23,520 Speaker 3: Class again, all the other teams and how the US 2549 01:59:23,760 --> 01:59:25,880 Speaker 3: has struggled to knock those team off. They're gonna need 2550 01:59:25,880 --> 01:59:28,120 Speaker 3: their best to be able to compete at an Olympic level. 2551 01:59:28,400 --> 01:59:30,360 Speaker 3: So MLB has to get on board to make it happen. 2552 01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:33,440 Speaker 9: Right, This one's kind of funny. Michigan football is under 2553 01:59:33,440 --> 01:59:36,400 Speaker 9: the ear the investigation right now for the illegal recruiting, 2554 01:59:36,880 --> 01:59:40,160 Speaker 9: Yet Michigan has invited former coach Jim Harbaugh as their 2555 01:59:40,160 --> 01:59:43,720 Speaker 9: honorary coach on August thirtieth in their home opener versus 2556 01:59:43,720 --> 01:59:45,560 Speaker 9: Presno State Bucky. Who do you blame? 2557 01:59:46,480 --> 01:59:48,839 Speaker 3: Oh? I like this. This is Shiran Moore and Michigan 2558 01:59:48,880 --> 01:59:51,640 Speaker 3: being petty, petty, petty, and I like the petty. They 2559 01:59:51,640 --> 01:59:55,080 Speaker 3: have done it consistently with Jim Harbaugh. They don't believe 2560 01:59:55,080 --> 01:59:58,040 Speaker 3: that they were doing wrong and so they want to 2561 01:59:58,120 --> 02:00:00,480 Speaker 3: kind of shove their noses in it. So that's where 2562 02:00:00,480 --> 02:00:01,360 Speaker 3: Harbor's coming back. 2563 02:00:02,360 --> 02:00:05,720 Speaker 2: I love this. This is Jim Hawbar and University of 2564 02:00:05,720 --> 02:00:08,360 Speaker 2: Michigan and the coaching staff of the football team giving 2565 02:00:08,360 --> 02:00:11,520 Speaker 2: the middle finger to the NCAA. That's basically what it is. 2566 02:00:11,560 --> 02:00:14,200 Speaker 2: And I love every minute about it because Jim Hawbar, 2567 02:00:14,320 --> 02:00:17,640 Speaker 2: in my mind, was honest and truthful. I love the man. 2568 02:00:17,920 --> 02:00:20,480 Speaker 2: Maybe I'm biased. I said it earlier. I don't think 2569 02:00:20,480 --> 02:00:23,000 Speaker 2: he honestly knew about it. I really don't. I mean, certainly, 2570 02:00:23,040 --> 02:00:25,400 Speaker 2: as head coach of CEO of the program, you have 2571 02:00:25,440 --> 02:00:27,440 Speaker 2: to know what's going on, but I don't think he did. 2572 02:00:27,440 --> 02:00:29,960 Speaker 2: He trusted his staff, So do you know what.
