Speaker 1: So we're back at it here in our lead this

30
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: hour from New Jersey. We have some serious meat on

31
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: the bone on the bout when it comes to Gang Green.

32
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: I love this story. Now there are days you walk

33
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: into the radio station and you're like, I don't know

34
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 1: about that one. This is not one of those days.

35
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: This is great. This is a finger licking good is

36
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: what it is. So the owner of the NFL team

37
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: in New York that somehow, being in New York still

38
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 1: can't win. This is so good. I help you. Maybe

39
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: you heard about maybe not so. Woody Johnson speaking at

40
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: some NFL like owners get together there, he showed support

41
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: for the embattled head coach who's drowning every week. Aaron

42
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: Glenn doesn't appear to know what the hell he's doing

43
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: as coach in the NFL. The Jets are all in seven.

44
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: But there was a vote of confidence for Aaron Glenn

45
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: from Woody Johnson. However, however, in doing so, what do

46
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: you think happened? That's right, dan Na nay name Woody

47
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: Johnson decided to throw his starting quarterback under the team

48
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: bus of the Jets. And it was magical. It was glorious,

49
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 1: and we've got the audio tape. Listen to Woody Johnson.

50
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: This is an owner of a multi billion dollar NFL

51
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: franchise unloading while defending his coach, unloading on his starting quarterback.

52
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: Tagle is it looks like he's turning around parts of it.

53
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 1: You know, it's hard when you have a quarterback with

54
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: you know, with a rating that we've got, you know,

55
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: I mean, he has the ability, but something just is

56
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: not jiving. But if you any any head coach of

57
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: a quarterback like that, you're going to see similar results

58
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: if you will across the league. You have to play

59
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: consistently at that position, and that's what we're going to

60
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: try to do. Hope we can just complete a pass.

61
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: It would look good. You got to complete some patty.

62
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: You got to convince him that you can do something. Oh,

63
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: it's so great. Something is not jiping. So great? All right,

64
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: Let us discuss where are the Justin Fields truthers out there?

65
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: Then he justin Fooh yeah, we talk about this guy

66
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: a lot because he's a quarterback. We talked football, and

67
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: for years I would do monologues unloading on Justin Fields,

68
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: and I would have some Dingleberry who you just don't

69
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: know what you're talking about? Yeah, that whole thing. So

70
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 1: that's a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the

71
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 1: question did Jets owner Woody Johnson cross the line? Did

72
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: he cross over the rubicon with his criticism of quarterback

73
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: Justin Fields. So on this one, I've got Kowala, Lion King,

74
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: and cool Mint, and we will combine all of these

75
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: things together and we are going to have a pajama party,

76
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: is what we're going to have. So a Woody Johnson.

77
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: I love the fact that he didn't pull any punches.

78
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,799
Speaker 1: Of course, he happens to be the owner that signed

79
00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: off on paying Justin Fields. Hello, you were a mirror

80
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: on the wall. Who's the dumbest of them all? Uh? Yeah?

81
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: So I love that in defending the coach who doesn't

82
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: appear to know what he's doing, he used Justin Fields

83
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: as a punching bag. Buddy, blow, body blow, body blow,

84
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: if he can just complete a pass. One of the

85
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: great lines ever said in my time and talk radio

86
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: by an owner about his quarterback. Imagine it's we're heading

87
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: into week eight in the NFL and the owners like,

88
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: if our quarterback could just complete a pass? Where you

89
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: at Justin Fields? Truthers, who are you gonna blame now?

90
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 2: Right?

91
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: You blame the Bears, bad coaching in Chicago, went to Pittsburgh,

92
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: good coaching didn't work out. Now you're in New York.

93
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: What are you gonna blame the coach again? What's the

94
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 1: move here? Let me go to the bag of excuses

95
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 1: for Justin Fields. That is so great. If that is

96
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 1: not a billboard from Woody Johnson saying I hate my quarterback.

97
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 1: Quarterback blows. I don't know what is. I do not

98
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: know what else that is. It's shocking because it's so abnormal.

99
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: And I've complained about this in ninety nine percent of

100
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: the time. We come in here and we all see

101
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: something that's rather obvious and we get gas you know,

102
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: people gaslight us and they're like, oh, let me tell

103
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: you something. You're you're wrong, what you're it's ridiculous, And

104
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: so it's unusual which stands out. It's man bites dog.

105
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: It's that kind of thing, and it's not wrong though,

106
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 1: it's not wrong at all. Justin Fields has been a

107
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: sixteen car pile up on the interstate. And when you

108
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 1: watch the Jets play and not a Jets fan, I

109
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: know there's a guy in here earlier is a Jets fan, Jason.

110
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,279
Speaker 1: You watch the Jets play and you're not a fan,

111
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: you're a rubbernecker. It's like and even like the we're

112
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,919
Speaker 1: all lookie loser, like, well that's man, that's a really

113
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: bad accident. Oh my god, Oh my goodness. I mean,

114
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: how many ambulances is gonna get a helicopter out here

115
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: and pick the people back to the hospital? How bad

116
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: is it? Justin Fields is the thirtieth ranked passer in

117
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: the NFL. There are thirty two teams that again I

118
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: didn't play in the NFL. I don't think that's particularly good.

119
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 1: Oh you're being too mean. What else? A tied for

120
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: second most sacks in the league. Because he moves. Here's

121
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: the problem with Justin Fields, and we figured this out

122
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: right away with the Bears. He moves like a koala

123
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: bear who's clinging to a eucalyptus tree and just eating

124
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: a nice meal. And that's justin fields. Unfortunately, when you

125
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: watch the NFL game in particular, it's read and react.

126
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: It's hot potato. It's get the ball, get rid of

127
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: the ball quickly, right you find the open player, get

128
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: rid of the ball. Boom. He's like, all right, I'm

129
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: gonna read the defense and then I'm gonna take a

130
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: nice nap. I'm gonna have a nice nap, is what

131
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to do. He's got four passing touchdowns. We're

132
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: almost into week eight in the NFL. He's got four

133
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: passing touchdoes. That's not just bad, this is unwatchable. And

134
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: I loved again, Woody Johnson, Woody Woodpecker loved his honesty there.

135
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: That's the naked truth. It just is. And most people

136
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: that are like, oh, every time the Jets get it. Course,

137
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: I was just talking to something in the hallway about

138
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: the way every time the Jets changed quarterbacks, it's like, oh,

139
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: this is the guy. Oh we got the guy, We

140
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: got the guy. Uh yeah. If you want a guy

141
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: to be in the cockpit of the vomit comet, you've

142
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: got the guy. And if it looks like trash, smells

143
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: like trash, plays like trash, probably trash, probably trash. So

144
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: the Jets have been running a dumb down, caveman offense

145
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: to try to prop up Justin Fields, and it's still

146
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: not working. So you run a rudimentary offense, it's still

147
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: not working. And so yeah, wood he basically said what

148
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,719
Speaker 1: everyone who's watched Justin Fields play quarterback already know. He

149
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: did have like one good game against Pittsburgh. They still lost.

150
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: You've got the rookie head coach, Aaron Glenn who's winless.

151
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: You've got Woody praising him like he's Vince Lombardi. Lombardi

152
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: would have lost, Bill Walsh, Belichick, all these guys would

153
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: have lost. And first Glenn. Again, Glenn hasn't been an

154
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn has not been any better than Justin Fields.

155
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: It's just that Woody Johnson likes him because Aaron Glenn

156
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: played so long ago that he actually was on some

157
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: Jets teams that were halfway decent. Now, as for the

158
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: future free agents that are gonna come to the Jets,

159
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 1: this idea, Wow, no one's gonna want to play for

160
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: the Jets now because Woody Johnson threw his quarterback under

161
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: the team bus. Please please, it's come on. Are you

162
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: really that naive? Are you that gullible? Don't don't do that.

163
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: You offer the most money, you get the player. It's

164
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: not that hard. You offer the money, you get the player.

165
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 1: And Woody Johnson got a little spicy at a presser.

166
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Oh my god. Money always talks. And

167
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: the guys that do want to play in New York,

168
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: it's great. You don't have to worry about having to

169
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: work extra and going to the playoffs and all that.

170
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 1: You play for the Jets of the Giants, and you

171
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 1: don't just don't worry about it. You're good. You don't

172
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 1: have to play football after the season ends in January.

173
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: You have to worry about playing football in the late

174
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: January and February. And that's it. And the Jets. I

175
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: figured it out when I was driving in here. I

176
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: figured out that the Jets might as well be part

177
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: of the Marvel cinematic universe. It's very simple. Like they

178
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: make these Marvel movies now, they don't even care about

179
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: the quality. They all suck, right. It's the same storylines

180
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: we've all seen, just repackaged here. It's just different actors.

181
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: The Jets. It's the same suck. But it's just they

182
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: changed the players and that's it. And the costumes are

183
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: still the same. That they play the Yeah, the cosplay

184
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 1: on the field and all that's still the same. Different

185
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 1: actors now outside of Justin Fields. Turning the page though,

186
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: another spicy hot comment from Woody Johnson. He was on

187
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 1: fight this guy, get a sports talk radio show at

188
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: the Fan in New York. Get Woody Johnson a job

189
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,079
Speaker 1: there in here. So the Jets owner also was asked

190
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: whether or not he had any second thoughts the fact

191
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: that the Jets had Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers wanted to stay there,

192
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: was treated rather rudely by Aaron Glenn, who thought he

193
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 1: was better than everyone else and handpicked Justin Fields as

194
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 1: his quarterback. And now Aaron Rodgers is a top ten

195
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 1: quarterback in Pittsburgh and the Steelers have a good record,

196
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: and so Woody Johnson was asked about that. He's had

197
00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 1: to quote, I have no regrets, he said, he said,

198
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 1: I never look back. You have to look forward in football,

199
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 1: and even when you cut players, they could be a

200
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,200
Speaker 1: Hall of famer. You just never know, he said. But

201
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: Aaron's playing great now He's in a situation that's working

202
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: for him. Close quote. All right, So question on this one.

203
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: What does this say about Woody Johnson's ownership of the Jets.

204
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 1: He's like, not even a little, like, maybe we should

205
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: have kept that guy. He's better than the guy we picked.

206
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,719
Speaker 1: Maybe he should have kept him. So this is the

207
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: never admit you're wrong strategy by Woody Johnson, very popular,

208
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:30,320
Speaker 1: and the never look back mantra is exactly why the

209
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: Jets continue continue to step on the same rake like

210
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: a vaudevillian comedy. And they've been doing that every decade

211
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,839
Speaker 1: of my life. It's fascinating. It's a complete encompetence. And

212
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 1: I would recommend that the Jets study the Lion King.

213
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,599
Speaker 1: I learned as a as a young lad watching The

214
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: Lion King Rafiki taught me that the past can hurt,

215
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: but you can either run from it or learn from it.

216
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: The Jets have chosen that they never want to look back,

217
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: and they have chosen to keep flying and go full

218
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: throttle the other direction right into the tornado, right into

219
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: the tornado, which they don't recommend, and thus is the problem.

220
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 1: So you're supposed to learn from your mistakes. I'm supposed

221
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,679
Speaker 1: to learn from your mistakes and not just powerwash over

222
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 1: them and just scrub a dub dub and use some

223
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,760
Speaker 1: kind of word salad, some corporate word salad thing, and

224
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 1: it's just living in the Bermuda triangle. For quarterbacks. The

225
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: coaches change, the general managers change, the players change, and

226
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: the results are the same. It's where you go if

227
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: your quarterback, you go to die here at the radio station.

228
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: There's a piece of metal that goes into the old

229
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: studio and that is the killing fields for the cockroaches.

230
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 1: That is where they choose to die. They go there

231
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: and they crawl, the little critters and they just die.

232
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: That's where they die. If you're a quarterback to the Jets,

233
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: you go play quarterback for the Jets and you die

234
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: right there. Florham Park is the name of the facility there,

235
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: and that's it. Every quarterback they get, we've turned the corner.

236
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 1: Now this guy will be different. We know the talking

237
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: points because they happen every couple of years when the

238
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: Jets change quarterbacks and the same old fungus grows there.

239
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: Of course, technically nothing grows at the Jets facility other

240
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: than mold, regret and a lot of losing a lot

241
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: of losing. By the way, just for the record, Aaron

242
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: Rodgers and Sam even Sam Darnold are technically top ten

243
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in the NFL, So even when they get a

244
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: guaranteed Hall of Famer, they suck with the Jets. It's

245
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: wo He's really operating a graveyard where you go there

246
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: and that's it. It's perfect for Halloween. It's a haunted

247
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: house with turf, and they share it with the Giants,

248
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: who also have their own misery, their own misery index

249
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: over there. And so you want to turn a star

250
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: into dust, put a Jets logo on their helmet. All

251
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 1: of a sudden they turn to dust. All right, anyway,

252
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: the last word, speaking of Tony to dust, we go

253
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: to Houston. We go to Houston now where Texans coach

254
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: Demico Ryans being called out another pathetic performance by the

255
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: Houston football team. And wonder where all those people that

256
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: were kissing CJ. Stroud's ass are. They're in hiding typical cowards.

257
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: So Demiko Ryans was asked whether or not there will

258
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: be any changes because they suck on offense. He said

259
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 1: he has no plans, no plans to change offensive coordinators

260
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: despite the horrific performance under Nick Kyley, the offensive coordinator

261
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: there in houstonquestion is how do you decode? How do

262
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: you decode? Demiko Ryan's the head coach. They're standing by,

263
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: standing by the Texans offensive coordinator. So this is obviously

264
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: it's coach speak. One oh one from Demiko Rans you

265
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: can go to sports clichede dot com. Now what I

266
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 1: did is I used my cracker Jack Dakoder ring that

267
00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: I got as a child, and it means from Dimico

268
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: that we were stuck with the same crappy quarterback that

269
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: we've had. So please stop asking me about this. I

270
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: feel uncomfortable. It's the corporate corporate mission statement, the corporate

271
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: mission statement, which is not really an answer. It's an

272
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: answer non answer situation that you know, we're all in

273
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: this together. We win as a team and we lose

274
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 1: as a team and all that stuff. And it's like

275
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: something that you would put on some kind of motivational

276
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: sign with an eagle, like a bald eagle, and you

277
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: hang it in the lobby of your building and say,

278
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,400
Speaker 1: all right, this is our motivational message. Meanwhile, the offense

279
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 1: is flatlining like it's an EKG machine. At this is

280
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: so bad. It is and let's talk about the hippopotamus

281
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: in the room. The hippopotamus in the room. The problem

282
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 1: is the quarterback. This is an Okham's razor situation. The

283
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: simplest answer is the proper answer. You don't have to

284
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: dig that deep. They've already changed coordinators in Houston. They've

285
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 1: already done that. Last year, they did that, and they

286
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: can change again. They can make another change. They can

287
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: change the font that they use in the playbook. They

288
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: can burn sage. That'll make Andrea in Berkeley very happy.

289
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: They can burn sage in the locker room. And it's

290
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: not going to matter. It's not gonna matter if CJ.

291
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 1: Stroud is going to play like this. I everyone was

292
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 1: sold on the sizzle, the razzle, dazzle from that rookie season.

293
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:08,160
Speaker 1: Well we're pretty far removed now from the rookie season.

294
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: And c J. Stroud who was billed and they said, hey,

295
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: listen to this guy's the savior. He is a fire

296
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 1: breathing dragon. We heard all that, and you know what

297
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: he's got right now. He is a dragon, but he's

298
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,360
Speaker 1: a drag. He's got dragon breath is what he has,

299
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: and he needs that. He needs that cool mint listering

300
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: because he's got halatosis is what he's got here. And

301
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 1: Stroud has got the same quarterback rating as Justin Fields.

302
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: Keep in mind the owner we just did. I did

303
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 1: ten minutes on the Jets owner, Woody Johnson ripping Justin

304
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 1: Fields for sucking c J. Stroud has the exact same

305
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: quarterback rating as Justin Fields. Hello, the Texans like, okay,

306
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: we can't bench this guy. We got to continue to

307
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: play him and all this stuff and fields of force

308
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 1: was taken out of the last Jets game there and

309
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 1: has just been called out by his owner. That deserves

310
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:06,439
Speaker 1: a gadzooks with a capital G. And last year, remember

311
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: Bobby Slowick slowk the offensive coordinator last year was tossed

312
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,160
Speaker 1: under the team bus there he was running the show. Now,

313
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: last season, the Texans were bad offensive. They averaged twenty

314
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: one point nine points per game, three hundred and twenty

315
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,360
Speaker 1: yards per game. So they said that's not good enough.

316
00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: We've got to get rid of the offensive coordinat they

317
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 1: canned his ass. So they brought in this guy, Nick Kaylee,

318
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,959
Speaker 1: who's got a good reputation. I think he's had stops

319
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: with the Patriots. He's bounced around on the NFL a

320
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: little bit, and how did that go well this year?

321
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 1: What if I told you the Texans are worse in

322
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: both points per game and yards per game. They're averaging

323
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: fewer points per game and they're averaging sixteen yards less

324
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: per game as the crow flies? So is that progress?

325
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 1: Out of what do I know? Just do an overnight show.

326
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,359
Speaker 1: I don't think that's progress. But my god, that is

327
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 1: stagnation and and a side of regression. He's what that

328
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: is there. So instead of taking ownership, said, we've got

329
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: a problem here, Mavie, sit this guy down, take a

330
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: couple steps back. C J Strad reset the old button here. No, no, no,

Speaker 1: and we begin this hour our leads story from Lost Wages, Nevada.

369
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,239
Speaker 1: As we start out with the auctioning block, we are

370
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: now less than two weeks away, less than two weeks

371
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: away from the swap meet ending in the NFL, the

372
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 1: trade deadline, which for most of my life has been

373
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 1: nothing special, nothing special. Lately, it's gotten a little bit better.

374
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: At DeVante Adams traded last year. That was kind of cool.

375
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: Didn't work out for the Jets team making a move

376
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 1: with a name brand player. We've had some other name

377
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 1: brand players traded in recent years. So with that being said,

378
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: the news out of Lost Wages, Nevada, and that is

379
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: where we will begin. If you have not heard yet,

380
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 1: there were rumors bubbling up, bubbling up about the Dallas

381
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:32,359
Speaker 1: Cowboys being on the prowl and they wanted Max Crosby.

382
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 1: They wanted Max Crosby, and they were pursuing Max Crosby

383
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: in a trade. Well, now we have learned that the

384
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: Raiders met with Max Crosby, star edge rusher, and they

385
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: let him know, we are not shopping you, Max, and

386
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: we are not going to trade you. This comes from

387
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: the prob the news service of the NFL state sponsored

388
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: NFL network. They report that the Raiders are not interested,

389
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: we are not interested in moving Max Crosby. He's the

390
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: top player on the Raiders, and Crosby wants to stay

391
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 1: as a loser apparently likes losing, wants to stay with

392
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: the Raiders, enjoys not having to worry about playing in

393
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: the playoffs and things like that. So that is a

394
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question. Does

395
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: this Raiders seal of approval and it's the rubber stamped

396
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 1: it the seal of approval? Does this mean that Max

397
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 1: Crosby is absolutely one thousand percent staying with the Raiders.

398
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: All right, So on this one, I've got Civil War

399
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: four seasons and gift basket, and we will combine all

400
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: of these things together and with the biscuit in the

401
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: basket is what we're going to do. So number one

402
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: got it, gott he So this does not change anything

403
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 1: unless you're naive. Well, the Raiders said they weren't going

404
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,199
Speaker 1: to trade him, and if they said they're not going

405
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 1: to trade him, they're not going to trade him, and

406
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,639
Speaker 1: all that's, oh my god, all the Raiders said, and

407
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 1: all the story was that they leaked. The story that

408
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: was leaked was we aren't shopping Max Crosby. It's not

409
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 1: that if somebody calls us up and is the Godfather offer,

410
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: make him an offer he can't refuse, then all of

411
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:31,360
Speaker 1: a sudden, Max Crosby is changing his laundry and going

412
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: somewhere else. So it's a nice little sentiment to send out.

413
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 1: The Raiders didn't say we're not trading Crosby. They're just

414
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: said we're not trading him unless somebody blows the doors

415
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 1: off the building and wants him traded. The price tags

416
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 1: pretty high. The price tag's pretty high, and that's just

417
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: a sales pitch. It's like, well, we don't want to

418
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: trade this person at all. And so Max Crosby. If

419
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: you keep it real, that's all we do is keep

420
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: it really. The guy is the ethos of the Raiders.

421
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 1: He just is right. He's got the look, he's got

422
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 1: the attitude, he's got the tats, the black hole energy,

423
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 1: all that stuff. When you think of the Raiders, the

424
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: old Raiders, back when they were good, you gotta be old.

425
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: And now think about that. You gotta be like an

426
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 1: old dude to know that the Raiders were good. How

427
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 1: pathetic is that? How much does that suck? That the

428
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: Raiders haven't been relevant in almost an entire generation. They

429
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: don't like the Dallas Cowboys. Cowboys are over a generation.

430
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 1: The Raiders aren't far behind that rich cannon Raider team.

431
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 1: And then, of course we know what happened in the

432
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl there didn't go so well. But back to

433
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: Max Crosby. So Crosby's got the look, he's right out

434
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: of Central Casting, and he's got that whole attitude. However,

435
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 1: if you think about this objectively, if the goal is

436
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 1: to win it, keep in mind that we like to

437
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 1: talk about everyone wants to win Super Bowls. It's an

438
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,840
Speaker 1: ugly secret that not everyone really cares. They just want

439
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: to make a lot of money, and they want to

440
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 1: live in a city they like living in, and they

441
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 1: want to do their time, get in the pension plan

442
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 1: in the NFL, and just be done. So they're not

443
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: really that concerned about winning. But if let's just assume

444
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: Max Crosby is somebody that does want to win. I

445
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: need a win. I want to win. By the time

446
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:25,400
Speaker 1: the Raiders are even remotely relevant, Max Crosby is going

447
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: to be like a Civil War relic, if you know

448
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: what I mean. He's twenty eight, I believe right now, Crosby,

449
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,640
Speaker 1: He's a defensive end, not exactly a long shelf life.

450
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,119
Speaker 1: It's just not This is not a canister of honey

451
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 1: that has an endless shelf life. There's no expiration date. Now,

452
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 1: this is bread. It's fresh bread, not slice bread. It's

453
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 1: fresh bread. And so that's it. And how many double

454
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 1: digit seasons will Max Crosby have four or five years

455
00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 1: from now when the Raiders are actually possibly competitive. And

456
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, let's go back to Tom Brady. Tom Brady's

457
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: little silver and Black side hustle. How's that working out? Burn, Baby, Burn,

458
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 1: It's burning down right in front of our eyes. Thirty

459
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 1: one nothing lost the team quit on Pete Carroll. You

460
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 1: don't lose thirty one nothing if you're trying. And the

461
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: Chiefs called off the dogs earf they called them off.

462
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 1: Could have been worse, could have been worse. So that

463
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: is a gutlass football team. They've quit on their coach.

464
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 1: And that's under Tom Brady. That's under Tom Brady. Everything

465
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,360
Speaker 1: Tom Brady has touched since he got to Vegas has

466
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 1: turned to pooh. It just hands, not Pooh, Richardson, actual pooh.

467
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: From Pete Carroll the coach, the players quit on him,

468
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 1: Gino Smith, the quarterback who sucks. And they thought maybe

469
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 1: Brady thought this was twenty nineteen or something like that

470
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: or twenty twenty two. I don't know, but it's not.

471
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: And so you look at the Raiders right now from

472
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: thirty thousand feet in this guy, and you examine what's

473
00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: going on there, and Brady has pulled off a masterclass.

474
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 1: He doesn't own the majority of the Raiders. He's been

475
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: given the de facto GM title where he's shadow running

476
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: the Raiders, which means if the Raiders are good, Brady

477
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: will get credit. If they're bad, he'll blame other people.

478
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: That spy tech guy, his buddy blame him, but the

479
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 1: Raiders are a great content machine, and Brady's been able

480
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 1: to light the franchise on fire, said Burn, Baby, Burn,

481
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: Like he's got a zippo and a can of gasoline

482
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: and just going for it. And if I'm the Lions,

483
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 1: let me just workshop this. If I'm the Detroit Lions

484
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 1: and I'm Dan Campbell and I'm all about biting knee

485
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 1: caps off and all that stuff every game. You look

486
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: at Crosby, He's a Michigan guy. Didn't go to University

487
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: of Michigan in Michigan State. He went to Eastern Michigan,

488
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 1: which is the ugly redheaded stepchild of the Michigan colleges.

489
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: Bring him back to Michigan. Who says, no, could you

490
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 1: imagine pu Max Crosby and Aiden Hutchinson together and the Lions.

491
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: This is the window of opportunity.

492
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 4: This is it.

493
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 1: This is the time for the Detroit Lions. So who

494
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: cares about first round draft picks? I trade a first

495
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: round draft pick and a conditional draft pick whatever to

496
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 1: get Max Crosby. Who wouldn't. My god, you put those

497
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 1: guys together and it's a championship or bust, And it's

498
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: that way Anyway, if you're a team like the Patriots

499
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:30,959
Speaker 1: and you're like, can we do a combo deal? Can

500
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: we trade for Max Crosby and get your Kobe Myers

501
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 1: and we'll trade you a couple of draft picks and

502
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 1: that'll be that. And you know, for sure, let's do it.

503
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 1: Let's make that happen. And so, by no means, just

504
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 1: because the Patriots said we are not shopping Max Crosby

505
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: doesn't mean he won't be traded. And if you don't

506
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: agree with me, you might want to go back a

507
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 1: few years ago. There was a player named Odell Beckham

508
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 1: and the general manager of the Giants, guy named Dave Gettleman,

509
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: sounds like he should be doing commercials for air conditioning,

510
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: and he said, we're not trading Odell Beckham. And then

511
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 1: they traded Ode Beckham to the Cleveland Browns, and yeah,

512
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 1: that worked out well for everyone involved. Now, speaking of

513
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: Jacoby Myers, but turning the page, but we don't turn

514
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 1: it that far. We keep it close to what we

515
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: were talking about. So Jacoby Myers was asked if he

516
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: still wants to be traded. You might remember before the season,

517
00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: Myers let the world know he was not happy with

518
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: the Raiders. He didn't want to play with Gino Smith,

519
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: although he didn't say that, the implication was that he

520
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: doesn't like playing with Gino Smith, so he wanted out,

521
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: and he was asked to follow up the trade deadlines

522
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: less than two weeks away. All right, you make the call,

523
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: Jacoby Myers, do you still want to be traded? He said?

524
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 1: Two words for sure?

525
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 4: For sure?

526
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 1: Two words? So question, how should the Raiders handle Jacoby

527
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: Myers and his disgust with playing in Vegas? So this

528
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: is not a ballplayer that you must have. Can we

529
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: establish that as like the opening state, Yeah, he's a

530
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: nice player. Once a player goes public like that, very

531
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: rarely does it end nicely. Very rarely does it end nicely.

532
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 1: We all know that. And it sounds like a guy

533
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 1: that's just not engaged. You can't put the toothpaste back

534
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: in the tube, as we like to say in these parts.

535
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 1: You cannot do it. And so if the Raiders, I

536
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 1: guess they can try to coddle him, I wouldn't recommend

537
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: that they can try that. And don't give me the

538
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: fake group, Hug. I do not need the fake group,

539
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 1: Hug I died. Don't you just ship him out. It's

540
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: that's it. It's the four seasons. Bye bye baby from

541
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: the four seasons. And Myers is not a cornerstone. He's not.

542
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: He's a good player, he's a good receiver, he's a

543
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: solid NFL receiver. He's on a bad team. It's not needed.

544
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 1: You don't. It's like, you know, having no money and

545
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 1: eating rob and noodles all the time and spending a

546
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 1: couple grand on golf clubs. You really don't need that.

547
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 1: You really don't need that. You know what I'm saying,

548
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: You just don't. So you're at a fork in the road.

549
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 1: You're at a turning point. And if you're the Raiders,

550
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: you know, it's like again if Jacobe Meyer's running drag

551
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 1: roots from from Geno Smith. Uh, just everything's toxic. You know,

552
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: a team like the Patriots would would give you something

553
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:22,800
Speaker 1: which is not. I'm not the draft pick guy. I'm

554
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 1: the wrong talk show host. If you love draft picks

555
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:26,800
Speaker 1: and you get your pants down because the draft picks,

556
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 1: I'm not that guy. I don't really care about Jeffies.

557
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: But if the guy's not happy, it's like who cares.

558
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: You can suck with him, you can suck without him.

559
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,479
Speaker 1: So it doesn't matter, all right, now final point? Quick right, quick, right,

560
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 1: all right, we go to the NBA. I am told

561
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: by sources close to the situation that the NBA season

562
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: is underway. The flag is up on the NBA season.

563
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 1: And I did watch some of these games. I didn't

564
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: think either one of the games rose to the level

565
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: of a Mallard monologue. So we will tell you the

566
00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: thunder squeezed by the rock it's your classic NBA game

567
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 1: where Houston played really well. Was in control, not in control.

568
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: They had the lead for the first like two and

569
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: a half quarters of the game, and the Rockets worked

570
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: their way back. They went to overtime, and then they

571
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:17,880
Speaker 1: went to another overtime and Shay Jogis Alexander scored twenty

572
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: four points in the fourth quarter and in overtime. We

573
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: are told that is the most points by any NBA

574
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: player in the fourth quarter and overtime in a season

575
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: opener this century. So it's been a minute, it's been

576
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,800
Speaker 1: a minute. How did Kevin Durantu pretty quiet twenty three points?

577
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,840
Speaker 1: He only scored nine points in the second half and

578
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: in the overtimes combined, that's it nine. So nine of

579
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: his twenty three points game in the second half and

580
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: overtime at fourteen and a half time finished with twenty

581
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,760
Speaker 1: three points. I'm told that's not good. And the Golden

582
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 1: State Warriors beating the bad guys. Good job by the

583
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: Warriors that beat the Lakers. Always love when the Lakers lose.

584
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: Good day for basketball fans there when the Lakers lose.

585
00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: Lebron didn't play. He's probably read reading that Malcolm X

586
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:10,240
Speaker 1: book or watching The Godfather, so he didn't play. Jimmy Butler?

587
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:12,719
Speaker 1: Is there anything more entertaining the watching a man stoot

588
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: foul shots sixteen of sixteen from the charity stripe for

589
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler and he got it done from the charity

590
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 1: strip Now Luca had forty three points the Lakers lose.

591
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: How did DeAndre Ayton do? Mid season form? For DeAndre?

592
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,399
Speaker 1: Eighton your classic stat line for DeAndre eaton the guy

593
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:34,320
Speaker 1: that's incompetent at basketball, ten point six rebounds, four turnovers,

594
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 1: no assis and a big LOL for DeAndre Ayton. How

595
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 1: do you know now? The story that did get my

596
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 1: attention If you're watching the NBA, it was on NBC

597
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:50,759
Speaker 1: and also on Peacock the debut of the NBA agreement. Now,

598
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 1: we were told by the Wall Street Journal, that is

599
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 1: a very bougie business newspaper based in Manhattan. The Wall

600
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,200
Speaker 1: Street Journal tell us that some NBC executives are sounding

601
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 1: alarm bells, very dramatically, very concerned that the networks deal

602
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: with the NBA. They're just not even make money. They

603
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 1: give this huge card too incise check to the NBA

604
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,320
Speaker 1: and they're not going to get good ROI return on investment.

605
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question. NBA executives said to

606
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: be unhappy. This was before they even started the games,

607
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 1: said to be unhappy with the NBA deal. Why is

608
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: this being reported as news? That's my question? Why is

609
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: this being reported as news? This is spam, is what

610
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: it is. It's obviously a huge overpay. Even if you

611
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: know nothing about finances, you can't balance your own personal finances.

612
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: We all know, every man, woman and child knows that

613
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: this is the way it works. I remember getting educated

614
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 1: a person that I was friends with in the you know,

615
00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,560
Speaker 1: many years ago. I won't I'll date myself if I say.

616
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: When he's an executive at ABC and they had just

617
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: won the bidding for this massive NFL contract, and I said,

618
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 1: it's going He said, well, we're going to lose money

619
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: on it. We know that, but we're going to get

620
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: people to watch our crappy sitcoms and that's what we're

621
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 1: doing it for. And okay, so you know going in

622
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 1: you're going to lose money. He says. It's called the

623
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: Lost Leader. I said, what's a lost Leader? I said, well,

624
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: you lose money on this, but you think you make

625
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:27,320
Speaker 1: it on the other side. So NBC is paying twenty

626
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 1: seven billion with a capital B twenty seven billion for

627
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:35,880
Speaker 1: the privilege of losing up to one point four billion

628
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: in the early years for their new shiny toy, the NBA.

629
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,240
Speaker 1: This is clearly why Benny versus the pending got canceled

630
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 1: by NBC. They had to pay for the NBA. I'm bitter,

631
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 1: How dare you? I'm bitter, Benny. Spoiler alert. These things

632
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,360
Speaker 1: always work out this way where you lose money on

633
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 1: it always and again, they're not buying basketball. It's being

634
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 1: sold as basketball. They're not buying basketball. They're buying subscriptions

635
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:04,320
Speaker 1: to Peacock and it's a gift basket of hope. They know,

636
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: like all of these businesses, the key is a subscription

637
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,799
Speaker 1: based business because a certain percentage of people will pay

638
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: for a service that is a monthly fee, and they're

639
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: so bad about their finances they will pay it until

640
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: they put them in the grave. They just forget about it.

641
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: And these businesses know a lot of the whole gym model.

642
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: For examples, you pay a monthly fee to go to

643
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 1: the gym, and many people don't go to the gym,

644
00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: but they keep paying for the gym because they like

645
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 1: the idea of going to the gym, Like, well, I

646
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 1: don't want to cancel the gym because maybe I'll get

647
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: my fat ass to the gym, And so you keep

648
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,359
Speaker 1: paying for the gym just on the off chance you're

649
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 1: gonna go work out when you never work out because

650
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 1: you're a fat pig and you don't want to work out.

651
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:51,680
Speaker 1: And I get it. I'm the same way, but that's

652
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: how they get you. And so they know a certain

653
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: percentage of people are gonna sign up for Peacock and

654
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 1: they're not gonna ever watch it doesn't matter. They're gonna

655
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: get a monthly fee. Drip drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip,

656
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 1: money mine made. That's what they're gonna get, so I

657
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: do enjoy the very dramatic reporting. Considering these executives at NBC,

658
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:15,919
Speaker 1: we the same ones that agreed to the giant deal

659
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: in the first place. It's kind of like Woody Johnson

660
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 1: we talked about last night. Woody Johnson is like ripping

661
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: Justin Fields, which is correct. Woody Johnson's absolutely right. Justin

662
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: Fhilds is incompetent, but he also agreed. He signed up

663
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 1: to say yeah, but okay with that ass My quarterback,

664
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: as I'll get by the NBC is like, we'll give

665
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 1: the nbal's money. Now they're like, well, I don't like

666
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: of course. The other argument is you can always find

667
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,719
Speaker 1: people that don't like something. I'm sure you could if

668
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 1: you wanted to write this story, if you're the Wall

669
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 1: Street Journal, you could find a group of NBA executives

670
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: or NBC executives that love the NBA deal, think it's

671
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 1: it's great, it's a slam dunk, but that that's not

672
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: as good a story. It's better to find the people

673
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 1: that are upset, which likely are news people because they

674
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:53,359
Speaker 1: cut the news budget. From what I read in one

675
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,320
Speaker 1: of the trade papers, so they're likely upset about that.

676
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,800
Speaker 1: So don't we pretend to be shocked. Oh I'm so shocked.

677
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 1: Oh my god. That is a sport, the NBA. And

678
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 1: we'll get into it when the playoffs come around. We'll

679
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 1: talk about if there's a good story. I'm not against that.

680
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: It's not my favorite thing. I'm not really excited about it.

681
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,759
Speaker 1: But they've had sagging regular season television ratings for years.

682
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 1: That's been consistent, and so they're not gonna be able

683
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 1: to cover the tab on this. And NBC will pay

684
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,239
Speaker 1: more for the NBA. This is amazing to me. They're

685
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 1: paying more for NBA games on a per game basis

686
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,840
Speaker 1: than the NFL. And NBC's got the Sunday Night, the

687
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: most important game of the weekends on Sunday Night, and

688
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:44,400
Speaker 1: they're paying more to broadcast Oklahoma City. It's like, okay, bonkers, bonkers, bonkers,

689
00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 1: all right? Yeah, the NBA is where your stars rest

690
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 1: during the regular season. They're unengaged. They use load management

691
00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: to rest during the regular season. The ratings do the

692
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 1: dipsy do, and the postseason stretches longer and longer and

693
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: longer and longer than a bad dinner. Part of your

694
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: wife took you to it. You didn't want to go

695
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 1: to and you hate the people you're with, that kind

696
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 1: of thing. Right in the end, In the end, the

697
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,919
Speaker 1: league cashes the check no matter what, whether you watch

698
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: or not. NBC's got to deal with the headaches and

699
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 1: all that. But again, they're trying to get you to subscribe,

700
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: and they know a certain percentage of people are just

701
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: going to subscribe, set it and forget it and pay

702
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: that every month even though they don't use the service.

703
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,400
Speaker 1: And I got to figure out how to get on

704
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 1: that hustle, Like, what can I do to get in

705
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 1: in that hustle? Will you just blindly cut money every month?

706
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: That's the way to do it.

707

712
00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 4: It was imported on Monday that there will be no

713
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 4: change that no changes are expected quote at this time

714
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 4: for the Miami Dolphins. Now before the season, owner Stephen

715
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,239
Speaker 4: Ross intended to give Mike McDaniel the full year before

716
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 4: deciding on the future.

717
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: Then do you think McDaniel will get that whole year?

718
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 4: No?

719
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,879
Speaker 1: And no changes, are expected to coop until they make changes.

720
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 1: They always say, well, no, it's like trades. No, we

721
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,280
Speaker 1: don't expect to make a trade until you make a trade.

722
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 1: Trades are always unexpected. Firings are ut expected. The Dolphins

723
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,279
Speaker 1: sucked to if the only reason McDaniel's there is to

724
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:16,440
Speaker 1: make two a great Tuas had six interceptions the last

725
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: two games. If he throws three interceptions against Atlanta this weekend,

726
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: it's over. Next.

727
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,680

00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 2: No, but he's.

733
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 1: Important for baseball's marketing. He had one amazing game. I

734
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 1: would not have given him the MVP, but they felt

735
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:47,919
Speaker 1: they had no choice.

736
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:50,719
