1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure nobody, and I mean nobody on the

3
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,639
Speaker 2: entire earth has gone through life and not said the

4
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 2: phrase life ain't fair, because it's not, and we know that,

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 2: and I don't think it's supposed to be. But I'll

6
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 2: tell you what, Aphram, one of the most unfair things

7
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:26,319
Speaker 2: about life is. I do think if you ask for

8
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 2: the view of a person, like the actual like what

9
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 2: is the right view of that person, the person themselves

10
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 2: has the worst view, Like our view of ourselves has

11
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 2: got to be one of the hardest things in life.

12
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 2: And I find it incredibly relevant today and specifically today,

13
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 2: because my gosh, when is the time? When's the right

14
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 2: time to just not do it anymore? When are you

15
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 2: not good enough anymore? When are you not the right

16
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 2: choice anymore? When are you not the person that the

17
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,919
Speaker 2: world will follow anymore? When is it time to say

18
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: I'm too old to be doing what I'm doing?

19
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 3: I mean, of course I'm talking about Tiger Woods.

20
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,479
Speaker 4: Well, who did you who did you.

21
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 3: Think I was? I was talking about it from.

22
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,199
Speaker 4: The Big bugs, because you can bring in a show

23
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 4: better than anybody I've ever worked with.

24
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 5: I tell you, I mean you, my friend, are gold?

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 3: Hi, buddy, how are you?

26
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 5: I'm good, brother. How you doing?

27
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 3: I'm good? You know, what's your story? Man?

28
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: What's what's like that whole idea of an athlete or

29
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 2: I don't know how about a politician, but but that

30
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: idea of an athlete when it's time to step away,

31
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 2: listening to your own voice, other voices, what was your

32
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 2: story at the end of your career.

33
00:01:55,440 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 4: I was in Detroit in my year twelve, and that's

34
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 4: the first time I didn't play, and it wasn't because.

35
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 5: Of my ability, and it made.

36
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 4: Me start looking at the league differently and the amount

37
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 4: of energy and time that went into preparing for the season,

38
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 4: and then the work that goes in during the season.

39
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 4: There was no payoff after starting ten straight years and

40
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 4: consistently playing for eleven years, year twelve for me was

41
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 4: no longer about my ability, and that was I'm always

42
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 4: talking about Detroit.

43
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 5: That was my twelfth year.

44
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 4: Was in Detroit, and you know, I was led to

45
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 4: believe that I could compete and then end up playing

46
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 4: if I outperformed, which I did because I could still play.

47
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 4: And up upstairs, not even the coaches, I mean, the

48
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 4: coaches were perplexed. Jim Schwartz and Scott Lenihan, my old

49
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 4: line coach, everybody, they were like, what's happening right now?

50
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 4: But they had invested a lot of money in the

51
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 4: year before and the kid planned the right tackle, and

52
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 4: they were like, look, it was just gonna go. It's

53
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 4: what it's gonna be, right, whether you're you know, we

54
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 4: know you're better than them. I mean I was told, hey,

55
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 4: either come push him or push him out the way,

56
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 4: and so that's what I did, and it didn't matter.

57
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 4: And so I started to realize, oh, this is a

58
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 4: different landscape. You gotta remember, seventh round draft pick signing

59
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 4: bonus nineteen thousand dollars, got an opportunity to compete for

60
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 4: a starting job with a five year, a high price

61
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 4: free agent they brought in. That's how I started in

62
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 4: the league. So that was my mindset. My mindset was, oh,

63
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 4: the playing field will be level, and I'll have an

64
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 4: opportunity to compete, and if you can still compete at

65
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 4: a high level better than the person you're competing against,

66
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 4: then you get the job.

67
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 5: Well when that when it.

68
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: Changed, it made me realize, hey, look now I'm just

69
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 4: a seventh round draft pick. No matter what I've done

70
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 4: in my career. So now they're not going to invest

71
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 4: time in me because I'm not going to be here

72
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 4: for five, six seven years. They paid him money to

73
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 4: be here for at least five years, so they aren't

74
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 4: willing to sacrifice one of those years by putting the

75
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 4: best product on the field. And I get that. I

76
00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 4: understand that as a business man, but I couldn't understand

77
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 4: it as a player because I got my start as

78
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 4: someone who competed and won the job fair and square.

79
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 4: And so that's when I knew, do I really want

80
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 4: to commit this level of time and energy for practice? Look,

81
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 4: football is hard, the game is easy. The game is

82
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 4: the payoff. So if you're just practicing. And I told

83
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 4: the story about how me and one of my veteran

84
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 4: linemen were on scout team, John Jensen, I believe he

85
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 4: was in year ten, I was in the year. He

86
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 4: was in year eleven and I was in year twelve,

87
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 4: and both of us were better offensive lineman than the

88
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,839
Speaker 4: tackle at the time, and we turned our Tuesday Thursdays

89
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 4: into our football games. And I just I didn't have it.

90
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 4: I didn't have it in me to go ahead and

91
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 4: bounce around for three four more years doing that. I

92
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 4: could have been a backup because I could have been

93
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 4: a swing tackle. I could play right and left tackle,

94
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 4: which is beyond valuable in the league. I mean, that's

95
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 4: it's real valuable. But I could have done that for

96
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 4: two three more years. I could have got to year fifteen.

97
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 4: It just wasn't in me. I did not want to

98
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 4: be away from life and family and we wanted to

99
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 4: start a family. And you know it, just without the

100
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 4: payoff of playing on Sundays. I'm good. You can go

101
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 4: ahead and have it, Homie. Yeah, yeah, I get that.

102
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 2: Gosh, it's interesting to hear you tell those stories. It's

103
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 2: almost like there's politics in sports.

104
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 5: Why you know what?

105
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 3: Wild?

106
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 5: You know what? How about that?

107
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 3: Keep your politics out of sports? All right? Anyway, I

108
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 3: don't go down that road.

109
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 2: But but but yes, that that I find all of that,

110
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 2: like what you just detailed for every person. That's really

111
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 2: hard because so often, and you're seeing it all over

112
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 2: our sports and our world. Right now, you're seeing these

113
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 2: two things kind of fight with one another, which is

114
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 2: what you want to do and what you should do,

115
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: what you feel like your mind can still do or

116
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,679
Speaker 2: what your body can still do. And like making those

117
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 2: what are considered mature decisions. I mean, they can't be easy,

118
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 2: and I've always defaulted to this.

119
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 3: I don't know how you feel about this.

120
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 2: I feel really bad about myself when I'm watching sports

121
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: on television and sort of barking at somebody, dude, you're done.

122
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 3: Stop playing. Well, hold on a second, Like.

123
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 2: Right, I mean somebody hired this person to play, Somebody

124
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 2: is paying this person. I'm supposed to tell this person

125
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 2: not to take the paycheck that's being offered to them.

126
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,640
Speaker 2: Like We've had that conversation a bunch when it comes

127
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 2: to live golf, Like I'm supposed to tell you not

128
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 2: to take money that's being offered to you.

129
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 3: That just feels out of my place.

130
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: So if we want to just use Tiger Woods as

131
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 2: the example, if we want to use the years that

132
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 2: are coming soon for Lebron and Steph, they're still playing

133
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 2: at a very high level. We did this for a

134
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 2: year or two with Tom Brady before he won another

135
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. We did it to the Warriors before they

136
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 2: won another championship. That's another thing that keeps in my mind,

137
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 2: like sometimes we're wrong.

138
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, there you go.

139
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 2: Now, I know it looked a little bit different, but

140
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 2: so what So I don't know's that's always my default.

141
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 2: I never tell people, hey, it's it's time to step

142
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: away at the same time, like, what's your favorite Michael

143
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 2: Jordan Washington Wizard's memory.

144
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 6: He scored fifty five at the Garden. He did a

145
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 6: wizard he did. I don't even remember that, I think,

146
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 6: so I may have made it up. I don't think

147
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 6: that made it up.

148
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I don't know, man, I don't know.

149
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 4: How do you answer that? What's the right time to

150
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 4: step away? The right time to step away for greatness? Right,

151
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 4: So there's a different categories, different categories, and every athlete

152
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 4: to understand and and and tell you that there are

153
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 4: different categories when it comes to making decisions. Greatness is

154
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 4: hard to walk away from. Now, when you talk about Jordan,

155
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 4: we're talking about all time great. Jordan right now probably

156
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 4: thinks he can come in the league today at his

157
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 4: age and score twenty a game, like his mentality. Tom

158
00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 4: Brady right now, even though he's just retired, probably thinks

159
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 4: he can take any team to the playoffs, right and

160
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 4: have and once you get there, you got a shot

161
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 4: to win it all.

162
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, he is better than half about half.

163
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 2: Right, He's definitely not the worst QB in the league

164
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 2: if he were still playing.

165
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 3: Right.

166
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 4: So what happens with greatness, especially when injury doesn't issue

167
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 4: to usher you out of your prime? Right, Peyton Manning

168
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 4: the next surgeries and all that he couldn't he was

169
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 4: like throwing a wiffle ball in the windstore, right, Like

170
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 4: it just wasn't there. The velocity, the accuracy he had

171
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 4: before injury, it wasn't there. And so when you see

172
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 4: players at the top, Michael Strahan did it, won the

173
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 4: Super Bowl? Walked off? Could he have played three four

174
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 4: more years? Absolutely? Could he been effective?

175
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 3: Yeah?

176
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 5: Sure? But why right?

177
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 4: Look at John Elway, John Alway back to back and

178
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 4: he was like, I'm tapping out. Could he have mudded along,

179
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 4: you know, two three more years? Yeah, of course, But

180
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 4: once you get to a certain point in terms of greatness,

181
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 4: and he's I'm talking football players and Jordan and basketball.

182
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 4: We saw Kobe at the end of his career just

183
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 4: too much, too much to overcome, too much to get

184
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:15,839
Speaker 4: himself ready to play, uh physically. But when you look

185
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 4: at someone like Lebron James, the gifts, the physical gifts

186
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 4: that he has, I mean he didn't miss a game

187
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 4: from from a serious injury for the first I don't

188
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 4: know what, seventeen years of his career forever.

189
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, right, iron man.

190
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 4: But when you still train and you keep yourself fit

191
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 4: and fed like he does, and his frame can hold

192
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 4: all of you know everything he's doing, I mean nothing

193
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 4: about what Lebron did this past season. Are he's doing

194
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 4: on Team USA says, oh this is his last year. Oh,

195
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 4: he's coming to an.

196
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 3: End totally, totally.

197
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 2: And now here's another reason why it's unfair for fans

198
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 2: to yell or Colin Montgomery, if you know that story,

199
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 2: who essentially said all week Tigers should not be playing

200
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 2: in these major championships anymore.

201
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 3: Here's why I think it's always unfair.

202
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you two examples coming up when the

203
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,079
Speaker 2: opposite happened and fans and media didn't like that either.

204
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,800

242
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: People will get all into that, like step down, you're done.

243
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 2: We don't want to see Willie Mays with the Mets,

244
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 2: Jordan with the Wizards, we don't want to see that.

245
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 2: But what happens when a guy leaves one second too soon?

246
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 2: You get mad at that guy too, Barry Sanders Andrew

247
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 2: Luck and I know that some are going to respond

248
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 2: on the Luck thing in particular and be like, come on, man, timing.

249
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 3: You went and did that in the preseason. I get it.

250
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 3: It's a fair response.

251
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 2: However, I'd argue for a lot of people this whole

252
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 2: like if they leave a minute too soon, the argument,

253
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 2: Oh you're leaving your team high and dry, you got

254
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 2: something left in the tank.

255
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 3: You're not built for this.

256
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 2: How exactly is someone supposed to know while you're in it,

257
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 2: what the exact right time to do it is.

258
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 4: It's your you know, it's your inner it's the inner dialogue.

259
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 4: It's the inner dialogue. It's the for Andrew look, in particular,

260
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 4: he just couldn't take the injuries anymore, the beating, Oh

261
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 4: my god. And what people don't realize is he was

262
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 4: about to be on the shelf again after coming off

263
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 4: missing the year. He was about to go back on

264
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 4: the shelf with something that they missdiing a lower leg

265
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 4: injury that they misdiagnosed, which turned into something that was

266
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 4: gonna take some time to and he just couldn't do

267
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 4: mentally coming and dealing with injury, for someone who plays,

268
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 4: dealing with injury at that level and coming back and

269
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 4: having it happen again emotionally, mentally, it it does a

270
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 4: number on you, man, And so you gotta listen to

271
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 4: your inner self. Your inner self is like, I don't

272
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 4: if you don't love it. Get out. There used to

273
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 4: be a time where guys when I came into the league,

274
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 4: most guys were lifers. Right as long as they paying me,

275
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 4: I'm gonna be here. They're gonna have to carry me

276
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 4: out of here. That was a sentiment. Some of those

277
00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 4: very same guys can't walk today, mm hmm, can't sleep, uh,

278
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 4: can't uh you know, function, can't dress themselves. And so

279
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 4: that notion started to change when younger guys, what's my guy? Uh?

280
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 4: Patrick Willis, Yes, he was like one of the best

281
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 4: linebacker in football. Was like, I'm cool. Was it like

282
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 4: seven year seven or something like that. He was just like,

283
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 4: I'm good.

284
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 3: I'll look it up.

285
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 4: But his his teammate, the second or third best linebacker

286
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 4: in the league, Bowman I think it was his name,

287
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,360
Speaker 4: was like, I'm sure this is these are all pro players,

288
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:54,879
Speaker 4: these are all pro guys.

289
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 3: He was like, played eight years and just six six

290
00:17:58,760 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 3: games in the eighth yield.

291
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 4: He's like, I'm good, yeah, and Bowman was he would

292
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 4: three years. He was like, no, I'm good, I'm gonna

293
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 4: go do Something'm gonna be a doctor or whatever it is.

294
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 4: He decided to go do and it was crazy to everybody.

295
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 4: Everybody's oh my god, this is it's not for everybody.

296
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 4: Being a professional athlete is one of the toughest things

297
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 4: you can do on the planet Earth. So just think

298
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 4: about it like this. Less than zero point one percent

299
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 4: of the population could be a professional athlete. Seven and

300
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 4: a half billion people. Less than zero point one percent

301
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 4: of people can be a professional athlete. Even less than

302
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 4: that can last more than five years. Even less than

303
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 4: that can go double digits in the sport. So you

304
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 4: want to talk about being rare and then you're climbing

305
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 4: up into air like I'm in the eight percent, the

306
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,919
Speaker 4: eight percentile of all NFL players to play more than

307
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 4: ten years. Eight percent of the small number that make

308
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 4: it have played double digital. More So, it it the

309
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 4: mental ford to just imagine working in at and t

310
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 4: for you know, twenty years, twenty five years, Right, you

311
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 4: move your way on up. Look, you can do you

312
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 4: can sustain that. But physically and mentally the tohll sports

313
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 4: take on you. It's un it's unrelenting. And so watching

314
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:45,959
Speaker 4: Tiger struggle, we get it. And it's not age for Tiger.

315
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 4: It's the things that have happened off the accidents. Correct,

316
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 4: correct that those are the things when your body turns off.

317
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 4: Not because of the sports, you know, the back and

318
00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 4: all of that. We get it for the torque and

319
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 4: and all of the things that went into to him

320
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 4: being the best golfer in the world for two decades,

321
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 4: but the accidents in all of those things, it's over.

322
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 5: You can't get that back is not coming back.

323
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 3: But he can go.

324
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 5: Play golf on his like he can go. He can

325
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 5: play golf forever.

326
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 4: He can't compete at that level, but you can go

327
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 4: play golf.

328
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:23,360
Speaker 3: Like.

329
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 2: The funny thing is, and I mean two things. One,

330
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 2: you brought up a slew of forty nine or linebackers there,

331
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 2: and the best example of them all is one that

332
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 2: I bet most of our audience doesn't remember and hasn't

333
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 2: heard of. Ten years ago, there was a kid by

334
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,400
Speaker 2: the name of Chris Borland, and he was a rookie

335
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 2: with the forty nine ers, also a linebacker, and he

336
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 2: had a real nice fourteen game stretch. He started eight

337
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,959
Speaker 2: of the games played in fourteen and came in fourth

338
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 2: for ap Defensive Rookie of the Year. And then the

339
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 2: year ended and he went, this is not for me.

340
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:10,199
Speaker 2: For me, I'm gone, And that was that I was

341
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 2: the end of Chris Borland's career. He played one year,

342
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 2: almost almost one Rookie of the Year left.

343
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,679
Speaker 4: If you're I'm telling you, especially football, basketball is different.

344
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 4: Especially football, if you don't love it, it is.

345
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 5: Hard to play. Man. It takes so much out of you.

346
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 4: It the physicality, especially at linebacker, offensive line, defensive line.

347
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 4: We're quarterback to play forever, right, But once you start it,

348
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 4: people don't realize. Our practices are like games in terms

349
00:21:55,400 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 4: of contact. So my practice, I'm having four games a

350
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 4: week in terms of the physicality of what it takes

351
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 4: to get ready to play every week. You know, some

352
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 4: coaches will take the pads off and right they'll be like, hey,

353
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 4: we're gonna we're gonna stop it. You know, we're not

354
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 4: gonna hit and all it. But some coaches didn't. When

355
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:21,800
Speaker 4: we all came in the league, it wouldn't know. Hey man,

356
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,640
Speaker 4: it was keep them shoulder pads on six weeks, double days,

357
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,719
Speaker 4: two practices a day. That's just what it was. Full pads.

358
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 4: So my first four or five years in the league,

359
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 4: that's what it was. When I got to Denver, they

360
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 4: were like, oh no, we don't even practice and shoulder

361
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 4: pads on Fridays.

362
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 5: Man, I was like, wait what.

363
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 4: And then like when we were winning and won a

364
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 4: four game win streak and they were like hat day,

365
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 4: hat day. I'm like, what does hat day mean? That

366
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 4: means on Monday and Thursday, Wednesday and Thursday fight all

367
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 4: week we were in hats.

368
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 5: I said, what.

369
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 4: Those are the types of things that players of the

370
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 4: coaches started doing when the prolonged guys keep him fresh,

371
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,359
Speaker 4: Scott McVeigh, I mean, Sean McVay, I was just no,

372
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 4: no training camp practice, right.

373
00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 2: I don't think Aaron Donald practiced the last nine of

374
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 2: why why great question.

375
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 4: Look, some people, when you say Aaron Donald and you

376
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 4: talk about one of the greats of the greats, some

377
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 4: people don't need practice.

378
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 3: Right.

379
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 4: We got a guy on our team who doesn't need practice.

380
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 4: You can just show up, right, He not in there

381
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 4: practicing what to say or are looking up miscellaneous stats.

382
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 4: He shows up and he plays. And that's one Steven

383
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 4: big play the sager, thank.

384
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 8: You very much, very kind and not quite true.

385
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 3: We played. That's amazing.

386
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 9: We will get to the baseball at a moment, but

387
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 9: I must say what it's going on at Dodger Stadium

388
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 9: right now.

389
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 5: It's amazing.

390
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 9: Show Halo Tani has just launched a home run to

391
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 9: right field. It looked like it went to the parking

392
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 9: lot and went over all of the seats in the pavilion,

393
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 9: which is a very rare thing. People like Willie Stargel

394
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 9: are some of the rare people that have done that

395
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 9: to right field at Dodger State.

396
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 5: One hundred and seventy three feet.

397
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 3: Oh my god.

398
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 9: He had hit one at Colorado granted thin air at

399
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 9: four to seventy six this year, and that record for

400
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 9: the longest homer of the baseball season got broken today.

401
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 5: More on that a moment.

402
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 9: The Dodgers have hit five home runs in five innings

403
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 9: and they're leading Boston sixt to two, and all five

404
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 9: of the long balls are against the starting pitcher for

405
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 9: the Red Sox, Cutter Crawford, who apparently if he has

406
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 9: a cutter, it's not working today. Tay Oscar Hernandez, the

407
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 9: home run derby chant for La hit his twentieth of

408
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 9: the season. Needless to say, there's been a few home

409
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 9: runs in the season for show Hey Otani. Freddy Freeman

410
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 9: had hit his sixteenth of the year. The Otani home

411
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 9: run is his thirtieth of the season. He has seventy RBIs.

412
00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 9: When you were talking to start this hour about some athletes,

413
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 9: should they call it quits? I knew you weren't talking

414
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 9: about Aaron Judge because he had a three run homer

415
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 9: today and is batting three to zho nine. Yes, the

416
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,040
Speaker 9: Yankees lost at home six to four to Tampa Bay.

417
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 9: But Judge, as DH today had two hits in a walk.

418
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 9: The three RBIs thirty five home runs for him. Judge

419
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 9: has eighty nine RBIs. We have a chance that he's

420
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 9: going to be close to one hundred RBIs by the

421
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 9: end of July. It's July twenty first right now, Seattle

422
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 9: beat Houston six to four. Outfielder Julia Rodriguez left today's

423
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,639

428
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 9: Giants hit the longest home run this season. I mentioned

429
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 9: Otani had hit one at Colorado at four to seventy six.

430
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 9: This one estimated to go four hundred and seventy eight

431
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,879
Speaker 9: feet Saint Louis Is six to two winner. Atlanta Braves

432
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 9: second baseman Ozzi Alby's broke his wrist. He could be

433
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 9: out two months after a collision at second base. Braves

434
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 9: placed All Star pitcher Max Freed on the injured list

435
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:14,040

Speaker 2: How about that Oho Tani almost hits one out of

468
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 2: Dodger Stadium as the second longest homer of.

469
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 3: The day in Major League Baseball? What on Earth?

470
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 5: Wowsers?

471
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, course field doesn't count, though, I like, of course, Well,

472
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 2: we had a guy go into the Hall of Fame today,

473
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 2: played his whole career with the Rockies, right, Todd Helton.

474
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 9: His career batting average three sixteen. If you break it down,

475
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 9: and I did, it's of course, to eighty seven on

476
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 9: the road. Three forty five in Colorado was his career

477
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 9: batting average.

478
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 2: I mean, at least two eighty seven is that's good? Yeah,

479
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 2: that's good. It's it's not Hall of Fame, but it's good.

480
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 8: Three forty five would be classified as silly.

481
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 2: I think, ridiculous, ridiculous, Just just like the stadium and

482
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 2: everything that happens when your team visits there.

483
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 3: Those all are qualified for that work.

484
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

485
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 9: Making the hitdeo nomo no hitter there one day just

486
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 9: more amazing as the decades.

487
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 2: Golutely absurd, absolutely absurd. And I actually watched that game

488
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 2: between the Giants and Rockies today and the Giants rookie

489
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 2: pitcher struck out twelve because his curveball was darting all

490
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 2: over the place, Like, how's that even possible? That was

491
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 2: the whole thing, Like, you couldn't throw a curveball there,

492
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 2: and this thing was going twelve to six.

493
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 3: It was crazy, wasn't it.

494
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 8: Darryl Kyle?

495
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 9: They signed with all this free agent money and it's

496
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 9: in Colorado and he couldn't throw a curveball.

497
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 2: They're like, this guy's got a great curveball, we should

498
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 2: sign him. And then did you know.

499
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 3: Whoops?

500
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 2: All right, great, Steff, Steve, thank you very much. Tie

501
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:42,360
Speaker 2: rack dot com Studios, Mark Willard and Ephraim Salaam. Yeah,

502
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 2: we're sitting here talking about the idea of when's the

503
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 2: right time to give it up? And and what about

504
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 2: those who have given it up but then they haven't

505
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 2: really given it up, like they want to come back.

506
00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 2: How would you apply the conversation? We just had to

507
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, who I saw a report is all in

508
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 2: on coaching, not this year but next.

509
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 3: Is he even hirable?

510
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 5: Yeah he's hirable, cod Yeah he is. He is.

511
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 4: And and yes, of course his legacy is linked to

512
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:21,239
Speaker 4: Tom Brady. But the reality of it is they're you know,

513
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 4: just like quarterbacks, right, there are some coaches out there.

514
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 4: Uh you know that that coaching pool is real shallow,

515
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 4: and that's why the turnover is so great every year.

516
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 5: Think about it like this.

517
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 4: On Black Monday is what they call the Monday after

518
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 4: the regular season NFL team, What is the average of

519
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 4: firings that happened that week or prior to that week?

520
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 4: Just on average every year? Now you mean to tell

521
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 4: me it? Somebody get fired every year. Just imagine. I

522
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 4: don't know if we've had a year where no one

523
00:30:57,960 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 4: got fired.

524
00:30:59,400 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 3: Probably not.

525
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 4: So when you think about it like that, yeah, would

526
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 4: you want to bring a Hall of Fame coach in,

527
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 4: especially if you had a quarterback, right, like if you

528
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 4: had a Justin Herbert or you know, a quarterback that

529
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 4: had what it took. Why wouldn't you want to bring

530
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 4: in one of the greatest coaches to ever coach at

531
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 4: that level?

532
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 3: Okay, Devil's advocate.

533
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 2: I guys, yep, because because this way doesn't work with players.

534
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 5: Anymore, right, right? I get that, I understand that.

535
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 2: You know what I mean, And I actually think even

536
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 2: if it did, even if it did work, I'd argue

537
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 2: that the way it worked last time was because something

538
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 2: got built from the ground up. There was a little

539
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 2: bit of luck involved in Tom Brady even being discovered

540
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 2: because of the Drew Bledsoe injury.

541
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 3: And then once it.

542
00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 2: Builds, it's just a parade of players joining an established

543
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 2: win and having no choice but to fit in. Better

544
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 2: do it this way, the Patriot way. You're gonna go

545
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 2: build that again somewhere.

546
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 5: No, you don't have to build that again.

547
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 4: But you know, it is a great coach's job to

548
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 4: understand his team right now. I think what happened with

549
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 4: him in New England was a humbling situation. I think

550
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 4: it was very humbling for him because, yeah, of course

551
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 4: he thought it was him. Of course he thought he

552
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 4: was the main catalyst in the six championships. How could

553
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 4: you not, How could you have that much success and

554
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 4: not believe in yourself to that level? Sure, and so

555
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 4: being humbled puts things in real perspective. Now, what you

556
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 4: do is you don't stay on the same path. If

557
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 4: you get another chance, what you do is you make

558
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 4: adjustments and then you recraft the narrative. And he's smart

559
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 4: enough to do that, and it starts with bringing in

560
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 4: young coaches that can relate to young players, right, who

561
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 4: can sell your way without the gruff.

562
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 5: Right.

563
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 4: Just watching him at the Tom Brady Roast made me

564
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 4: like him more.

565
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's different than his persona.

566
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 4: And and that's what I believe, is he when people

567
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 4: get to see that, you can really like watching that rose,

568
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 4: I was like, okay, you know what I mean, Like,

569
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 4: I can have a root beer with him, just pick

570
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 4: his brain, right, I can sit down and have a

571
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 4: muggle root beer with him.

572
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, he might have something different, but yeah, yeah, you know,

573
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:08,399
Speaker 2: you think what you want.

574
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 4: I don't drink, so I'm gonna get I'm gonna get

575
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,359
Speaker 4: a Bars Barks has bite. I'm gonna get a Barks

576
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 4: root beer. We're gonna see. We can sit down and

577
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 4: chop it up and chop it up. But that you

578
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,359
Speaker 4: got to see a side of him that no one

579
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 4: had got a chance to see, no doubt no. And

580
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:27,120
Speaker 4: I think his knowledge, his vast knowledge, his ability to

581
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 4: make end game adjustments some of the best ever. I

582
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:37,720
Speaker 4: think that's invaluable to some of these teams, especially.

583
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 5: If you have a real quarterback. Invaluable.

584
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 4: I'm gonna simplify the game to you for you and

585
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 4: all you got to do is go out there and perform.

586
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 2: Okay, Mark Willardy from Salam Coming up next. Are there

587
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 2: two athletes that we think are still at the height

588
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 2: of their powers, but actually they're not and and and

589
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 2: we should be having this.

590
00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 3: Conversation maybe already.

591
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,920
Speaker 2: We'll get to that coming up next on Fox Sports Radio.

596
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 2: Okay, Tyrack dot com studios. Mark worth Any from Salam

597
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, we get a little deeper into some

598
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 2: NFL stuff coming up in the next couple hours. I

599
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 2: wanted to ask you this though, and this is gonna

600
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:36,799
Speaker 2: be Devil's advocate again now, because you brought up one

601
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 2: of these names earlier this hour, and you're not wrong.

602
00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 2: And that is is that Lebron James Gifts are so

603
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 2: great that they defy everything. They defy logic, they defy time,

604
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 2: they defy history, all of those things to a lesser degree.

605
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 2: Right now, it feels like they're linked because they're playing

606
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 2: together with Team USA, because they've been the two ratings

607
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 2: drivers in the NBA for the last decade, But Steph Curry,

608
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 2: I feel like to a lesser degree because quite frankly,

609
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,439
Speaker 2: he's just he's not as old, he's not as old,

610
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 2: and obviously physically is a completely different player. Lebron can

611
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:21,439
Speaker 2: just overwhelm people on a basketball court physically.

612
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 5: And he's just smarter than most players.

613
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're obviously both so brilliant, and they've obviously both

614
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:34,399
Speaker 2: passed thirty five. And so my question is when we

615
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 2: look at these two we go I still see the

616
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 2: same thing. They look the same on the court, they

617
00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,480
Speaker 2: both go out there and average their twenty six a night.

618
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:50,920
Speaker 2: They largely look the same. What doesn't look the same

619
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 2: is the standings and the number of wins. I know

620
00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 2: Lebron took his team through a couple of playoff series

621
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 2: last year, not this one that just passed, but the

622
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 2: year before, a year plus ago. I get that, but

623
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 2: he also he had to do it now twice in

624
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 2: a row through the play in tournament. The Warriors were

625
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 2: a sixth seed that just scratched out a seven game

626
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 2: series last year. This year playing tournament team unceremoniously kicked

627
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: in the face in one game Goodbye, Go Home, and

628
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 2: both of them are largely doing it healthy from their

629
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,680
Speaker 2: teammates are healthy, they're healthy.

630
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 4: Well, then that the Lakers weren't healthy. Well, Anthony Davis

631
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 4: was healthy, but the Lakers were not healthy, I think.

632
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 2: Okay, so at the end of the year, I can

633
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 2: point to this guy, that guy, the cores were healthy.

634
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 5: Or that again.

635
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 4: The stars, yes, but as we know, it takes more

636
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 4: than stars to win in today's NBA.

637
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 5: Okay, but like, what are you just making like?

638
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:09,960
Speaker 3: Right?

639
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 2: I mean, are we talking about the Hatchi Morris and

640
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 2: the Vanderbilts of the world, and that means they would

641
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:15,920
Speaker 2: have won the title?

642
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 4: I mean, Cam Redditch Vanderbilt show, Like, those are intricate parts.

643
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 4: Those are three and D guys. That's what you. You

644
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 4: can't win without three and D guys.

645
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 3: Right, And they also wouldn't have won with them. That's

646
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 3: just me.

647
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,560
Speaker 5: But it's not like a real right now.

648
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 2: Well, now, look, I mean the Warriors are are They're

649
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,200
Speaker 2: in the exact same spot, and I think it's fair

650
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 2: to ask these questions. And again, nobody's asking these guys

651
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 2: to walk away. But I do think that sometimes I

652
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:50,320
Speaker 2: wonder if our view of them and our expectations should

653
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 2: get adjusted.

654
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,840
Speaker 3: They're not the same players.

655
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 4: Anymore, of course they're not. But what happens is what

656
00:38:56,719 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 4: Golden State did was absolutely right, right, Golden That's what

657
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 4: the offseason is for, that's what free agency is for.

658
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 4: That's you're supposed to maximize what's left in these tremendous stars.

659
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 4: And that's what Golden State Lakers not so much, but

660
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 4: that's what the Golden State Warriors did. They're bringing in pieces.

661
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:19,919
Speaker 5: Right.

662
00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 4: Tragically, had to let Clay go. He just wasn't doing

663
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:29,040
Speaker 4: it anymore. Hopefully Draymond can keep it together. But what

664
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,879
Speaker 4: they decided to do is we're going to bring in

665
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 4: some real guys who can play, who can play, right,

666
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,399
Speaker 4: got rid of the Chris Paul's that that never thought

667
00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 4: that was gonna work anyway, Right, So they're they're building

668
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:51,760
Speaker 4: out the blueprint to help maximize Steph right because quiet

669
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 4: as kept, Steph can play longer than Lebron, because he's

670
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 4: always gonna be able to shoot, he's always gonna be

671
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 4: able to handle. They're not asking him to guard anybody,

672
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 4: so that game right there, in itself, he can go.

673
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,280
Speaker 4: He can continue to go as long as he's shooting.

674
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:14,440
Speaker 4: He can shoot as long as he has that handle.

675
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:18,280
Speaker 4: He has the handle like he is built to play longer.

676
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 4: So look, the sun is not setting on Golden State.

677
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 5: It's not.

678
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:32,800
Speaker 3: We'll see.

679
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 2: I mean, you're not wrong, You're like that. Everybody's gonna

680
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 2: have to pull a rabbit out of the hat. Now

681
00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 2: you're gonna have to pull a rabbit out of the hat.

682
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 2: And I can't wait to see it. I hope you're right.

683
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 3: All right?

684
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 2: Coming up next, we got to talk about the wide

685
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 2: receiver position.

686
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 3: In the NFL.

687
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 2: On we go, just ending careers right and left, Tiger

688
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 2: and Lebron and Steph and By and all in one day.

689
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 3: Amazing.

690
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 2: We're broadcasting live from the tirec dot Com studios. Tirec

694
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,360
Speaker 2: from I got a question for you. I bet I

695
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 2: know your first answer, and I'm betting it will be

696
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 2: a tongue in cheek sort of answer. But if I

697
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 2: ask you what's the most important position in football, what's

698
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 2: your answer?

699
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 5: Quarterback?

700
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 2: Okay, see I just lost money. Yeah, well that's the

701
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,279
Speaker 2: correct answer. I thought for sure you were going to

702
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 2: say left tackle, though.

703
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, that's a second okay, most important seconds.

704
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 2: Okay, now keep going. If that's second, what's third? Ed rusher,

705
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,760
Speaker 2: edge washer? That's what I thought you'd say. What's fourth?

706
00:41:58,719 --> 00:41:59,879
Speaker 5: Fourth is cornerbacks.

707
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 2: That's exactly what I thought you'd say. This is commensurate

708
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 2: with what coaches have told me for years. You guys

709
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 2: all give the same list. What's fifth?

710
00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 5: Uh? Fifth? In my bigon, well, it'd be linebackers.

711
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:18,400
Speaker 3: Linebackers, all right? What's sixth? All right? What's seventh?

712
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:19,239
Speaker 5: Receivers?

713
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 3: Okay? Why are they being paid so much? Aphram? What

714
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 3: are we.

715
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 5: Doing fantasy football?

716
00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:27,919
Speaker 4: Is? Man?

717
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 5: What are we doing fantasy?

718
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 1: No?

719
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 3: No, for real?

720
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 5: To here?

721
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:33,880
Speaker 3: What's wild?

722
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 2: You know what's wild is is because fantasy football, and

723
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:43,360
Speaker 2: because they are they're flashy and interesting. They went and

724
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 2: got themselves their own documentary, Aphram. Although my favorite part

725
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 2: of the documentary Receivers is that they didn't pick five receivers.

726
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,160
Speaker 3: They picked four receivers and.

727
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 2: A tight end with hair, okay, and a personality, so

728
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 2: I get it. But they went and got themselves a

729
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:12,799
Speaker 2: documentary Second Quarterbacks. That was the first documentary, second documentary,

730
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,800
Speaker 2: wide receivers and it's as if these documentaries are coming

731
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 2: out in order of highest salaries in the NFL. But

732
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 2: what is talked into this documentary? And I don't know

733
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,680
Speaker 2: if you're watching it. Are you watching it at all?

734
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:26,319
Speaker 2: Have you've seen some.

735
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 4: From when you talked about it last week? I put

736
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 4: it on doing our show, so on our breaks, I'm watching.

737
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 3: It, okay? And yeah, how many episodes in are you?

738
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 5: I'm episode eight?

739
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 2: Oh wow, you're now you're you flew right by me? Okay,

740
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 2: all right, so you're watching it. There's all kinds of

741
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:52,200
Speaker 2: underlying themes, and one of them is the tremendous story

742
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 2: that's unfolding about the Las Vegas Raiders franchise. Yes, and

743
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 2: everyone watching it with these very simplistic guys, which is one, ooh,

744
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,040
Speaker 2: it's salacious, it's Vegas and it's the Raiders and Davante

745
00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 2: is outspoken. And then the second part is Jimmy Garoppolo

746
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,320
Speaker 2: has had a truck drive over him in this documentary,

747
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 2: like that's the end of Jimmy. I know he's now

748
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 2: back up in LA But my god, watched this documentary

749
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 2: and you wouldn't hire this guy to carry the quarterback's

750
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:33,960
Speaker 2: towels after watching this documentary. So but tucked into all

751
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 2: of that, I think from is a message. And the

752
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 2: message is the Raiders went out and made a flashy

753
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:47,680
Speaker 2: acquisition and gave him twenty eight million dollars a year,

754
00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 2: and it couldn't score point.

755
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 3: Because all of the other stuff was a mess.

756
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:04,160
Speaker 2: Meantime, for two decades in this league, Tom Brady has

757
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 2: surrounded himself with I don't know who, and that guy

758
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 2: over there that's a wide.

759
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 5: Receiver position, Jolman Johnson.

760
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,879
Speaker 2: The Chiefs went and said, we don't want to pay

761
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,920
Speaker 2: two receivers. Actually, while we're at it, let's not pay

762
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,320
Speaker 2: one and.

763
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 3: One back to back Super Bowls.

764
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:30,840
Speaker 2: Yet we're all running around in circles trying to figure

765
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,320
Speaker 2: out who's next to get.

766
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 3: Thirty million year.

767
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:36,880
Speaker 2: No wonder the forty nine ers are looking at Brandon

768
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 2: Ayuk and going, ah, we got a different idea on

769
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:40,640
Speaker 2: how this is gonna go.

770
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 5: No, I drafted his replacement, So why why?

771
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 3: I thought, that's my question, Why why are we doing this?

772
00:45:53,400 --> 00:46:00,680
Speaker 4: It's the ebbs and flow of things. The teams that

773
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 4: are performing at a high clip have dynamic pass catchers,

774
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 4: right Now, every team is not going to go to

775
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,959
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl. But when you look at the forty

776
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:14,359
Speaker 4: nine ers and you look at de Bo, you look

777
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 4: at you, you look at Kerry Kittle, then you look

778
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:20,800
Speaker 4: at Travis kelcey uh and the Strides. Did Patrick ma

779
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:24,160
Speaker 4: Like I take Patrick Mahomes out because he's an outlier,

780
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:28,759
Speaker 4: he falls into Tom Brady. It doesn't matter, right, it

781
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 4: doesn't matter. Sure, But then you look at like every

782
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,399
Speaker 4: one of those guys in that documentary, I'm in Ross,

783
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 4: Saint Brown, Deebo, Samuels, even Carry Kittles, George George, I

784
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:59,680
Speaker 4: mean Carrie George, George Kittle, and.

785
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 5: DeVante and Justin and Justin Jefferson.

786
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:02,840
Speaker 4: Right, those guys are at the They are the best

787
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:10,160
Speaker 4: of the best. Those guys are legit difference makers. Not

788
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:13,800
Speaker 4: to the extent that they can make a difference without

789
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 4: a quarterback though, And that's the point. If you can

790
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:21,799
Speaker 4: team up a quarterback with one of those guys, you're

791
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 4: going to have success. You're going to make the playoffs,

792
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:28,399
Speaker 4: You're going to have an opportunity to compete, to play

793
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 4: in the Super Bowl. And I think that's why the

794
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 4: price tag is when you when you look at the

795
00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:37,719
Speaker 4: team's paying receivers outside of what the Raiders did. But

796
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 4: the Raiders did it for a reason. They had Derek Carr,

797
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:48,280
Speaker 4: who was Devonte Adams quarterback in college at Fresno State. It, yes,

798
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 4: that's he's not going if he's not there, right, did

799
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:55,840
Speaker 4: they have to pay a little bit extra? Of course,

800
00:47:56,280 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 4: you're taking him away from a Hall of Famer first ballot,

801
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,400
Speaker 4: and you're teaming them up with the guy he loves.

802
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 4: Will sweeten the pot. We're gonna give you what you

803
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 4: want just to get you in the building. You look

804
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 4: at what's happening in Minnesota. When Kirk Cousins went down,

805
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 4: it was like, oh, you know, justin Jefferson, he still

806
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:24,400
Speaker 4: put up numbers with what was this mullin the rookie

807
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:26,760
Speaker 4: Nick Mullen, Nick Mullen, Right.

808
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, there were there, but there was a revolving door

809
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 2: for the Vikings last year.

810
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:30,680
Speaker 3: Right.

811
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 4: So, a best friend to a quarterback who's unsure and

812
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 4: unproven is a dynamic receiver and a dynamic tight end

813
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 4: best friends because they can bail you out when you

814
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:48,799
Speaker 4: got a fifty to fifty ball guy or eighty twenty guy,

815
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:51,839
Speaker 4: meaning it's two players covering them and he still has

816
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,200
Speaker 4: an eighty percent chance to get Andre Johnson was like

817
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:59,520
Speaker 4: that Andre Johnson would Hey man, we first of all

818
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 4: just want to say Andre John's is the only quarterback

819
00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:03,960
Speaker 4: in the National Football League who didn't have a Hall

820
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 4: of Fame quarterback or a Hall of Fame receiver playing

821
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,400
Speaker 4: opposite on him to make the Hall of Fame, just

822
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,439
Speaker 4: to you know, just throw it out there, and I'll

823
00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:18,040
Speaker 4: be in Canton next week, in a week, two weeks,

824
00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 4: a week and half to watch my friend and my

825
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 4: teammate getting shrine into the Hall of Fame.

826
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 3: Love that, Love that.

827
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 5: My guy, love him, one of my best teammates.

828
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 2: Ever, I did not make the point that I made

829
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:38,480
Speaker 2: to say that receivers are not great. They're not important,

830
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,800
Speaker 2: they're not fun to watch, they're not faces of the league.

831
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 2: You mentioned fantasy football. Look, all of these things are true.

832
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 2: What I'm looking for, though, is for this market to

833
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 2: simply settle into the right spot in terms of how

834
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 2: they equate to winning. Because you pointed out or if

835
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 2: you've got some of these guys, those are the teams

836
00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 2: that are are competing for Super Bowls. Well, I'm going

837
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 2: to slightly push back on that. In a couple of

838
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:12,239
Speaker 2: forms number one. It's one thing to pay one guy,

839
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:16,520
Speaker 2: it's another to pay two. The Eagles have paid two,

840
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:22,239
Speaker 2: and their whole thing went sideways last year. The Dolphins

841
00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:26,800
Speaker 2: have paid two. They didn't beat anybody good all year,

842
00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:32,960
Speaker 2: let alone in the playoffs. I could look around the

843
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:38,640
Speaker 2: league at some of these teams that are prioritizing two

844
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,280
Speaker 2: receivers and really.

845
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,319
Speaker 3: Question exactly where.

846
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 2: And some of the teams that really set the bar,

847
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:52,720
Speaker 2: the Chiefs, the Ravens, to a lesser degree, the forty

848
00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:54,919
Speaker 2: nine Ers. They had to pay one two years ago,

849
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,839
Speaker 2: and now they're really bucking at the idea of paying two.

850
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,720
Speaker 2: These teams said, look what the Packers did Green Bay.

851
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,280
Speaker 2: You know, look at their side of the DeVante situation.

852
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:08,480
Speaker 2: They went, Aaron's getting old.

853
00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 3: We're gonna have.

854
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:13,440
Speaker 2: To reboot QB Let's reboot wide receiver. While we're at it.

855
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:16,239
Speaker 2: They got four guys that were all drafted.

856
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:16,880
Speaker 3: In the last two years.

857
00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 2: And guess what they're gonna do when those guys come

858
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:27,439
Speaker 2: up for contract extensions. Don't pay one of them, they'll

859
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 2: pay Maybe they'll pay one of them, although I'd argue

860
00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 2: that number is going to be a lot less because

861
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:34,280
Speaker 2: they're so spread out at that at that position.

862
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 3: That no one's gonna put up fifteen hundred yards.

863
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 4: I'll tell you this, you said it yourself, and you're

864
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:42,839
Speaker 4: not you know, you're not being contrary or anything like that.

865
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,800
Speaker 4: We talked about paying a receiver, not too You can't

866
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:51,440
Speaker 4: be successful and pay two receivers. It's not in the

867
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:56,799
Speaker 4: cards because you don't need two receivers to be that successful.

868
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,719
Speaker 4: That's why Brandon Ayuk is standing on the outside and

869
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:06,240
Speaker 4: look in they are just fine with a young rookie

870
00:52:06,440 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 4: draft pick learning from d Bow and George and and

871
00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 4: and being there with Brock. They don't need two one

872
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:21,800
Speaker 4: hundred million dollar receivers. It's hard to build a team

873
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 4: when you spend two hundred million dollars on pass catchers.

874
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:32,120
Speaker 4: It doesn't work. You're breaking the model. Now, that's not

875
00:52:32,600 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 4: what you do, because now you're taking away from a

876
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:39,200
Speaker 4: d n Now you're taking away from a nose guard

877
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 4: that can stop the run. Now you're taking away from

878
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:44,600
Speaker 4: a corner that can shut down half the field. When

879
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:47,480
Speaker 4: you got two pass catchers, I don't care who your

880
00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:49,799
Speaker 4: quarterback is, you can only throw the ball to one

881
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 4: of them at a time. And so the thing that

882
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,920
Speaker 4: made the Minnesota Vikings great back in ninety eight when

883
00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,480
Speaker 4: they drafted Randy Moss and had Chris Carter.

884
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:01,160
Speaker 5: Over there is.

885
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:05,400
Speaker 4: You had Chris Carter and you're drafted a Hall of

886
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 4: Fame receiver and Randy Moss. That's how you do that.

887
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 4: But guess what, when it had to pay Randy, Chris

888
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:22,400
Speaker 4: was already done. So you the days of stacking the

889
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:27,400
Speaker 4: wide out room with expensive guys, that is the opposite

890
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:31,200
Speaker 4: thing to do because you can't service both of them,

891
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:37,080
Speaker 4: and you're taking away places where that can benefit the team,

892
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:42,240
Speaker 4: where you can put that money on the offensive line,

893
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,319
Speaker 4: or let's give the quarterback time to actually get the

894
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 4: ball to one of them.

895
00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:47,359
Speaker 3: That would be good.

896
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 2: And in that specific situation, they're going to have to

897
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:51,360
Speaker 2: actually pay.

898
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:56,399
Speaker 3: The quarterback too. Yeah, oh yeah, a lot, a lot.

899
00:53:56,719 --> 00:54:03,720
Speaker 2: So this documentary it adjusted my opinion there, and then

900
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:07,040
Speaker 2: that's in the macro and in the micro it sort

901
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:09,760
Speaker 2: of adjusted my opinion on this forty nine er situation

902
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:11,640
Speaker 2: that you're talking about as well. And I have a

903
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:15,799
Speaker 2: very specific question that I value your opinion on this

904
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,560

928
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:32,799
Speaker 2: we're talking about kind of like NFL opinions that have

929
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 2: been sparked off of this Netflix doc Receivers, which I

930
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:39,280
Speaker 2: find really interesting.

931
00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 3: What's up? I'm done with four? You told me about this.

932

00:55:47,040 --> 00:55:50,000
Speaker 2: Because this week we did a little mash up at

934
00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:52,839
Speaker 2: our station here in the Bay Area, and I did

935
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,319
Speaker 2: the morning show. So I was getting up at four

936
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,680
Speaker 2: point thirty in the morning every day and once dinner's done,

937
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,959
Speaker 2: it eight. Dude, I wouldn't have been able to stay

938
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:07,520
Speaker 2: awake for a light show, like, oh my god, nothing

939
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 2: could have kept me awake. So I slow this week,

940
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 2: but I hopped into one last night. I'll be doing

941
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:17,080
Speaker 2: some more tonight after our show. So I'm trying. And

942
00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,200
Speaker 2: I will say, by the way, the quick kind of

943
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:28,000
Speaker 2: the review of it, if you will, Davante's fantastic and

944
00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:32,440
Speaker 2: his miked up moments on the sideline are a highlight.

945
00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:37,799
Speaker 2: Go ahead, no no, no, you go keep going, keep going.

946
00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 2: Kittle is exactly what you'd expect him to be. One

947
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:44,680
Speaker 2: of the most engaging people in the NFL. Debo is awesome.

948
00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:46,760
Speaker 2: That's the cutest kid I've ever seen.

949
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:50,759
Speaker 3: In my life. Like that him as a dad, that's tremendous.

950
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 2: And just watching what these guys went through physically, Justin's

951
00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:59,919
Speaker 2: situation sort of didn't. He's great, but his situation last

952
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 2: year didn't really unfold in a great way because he

953
00:57:02,120 --> 00:57:04,920
Speaker 2: got hurt and then his quarterback got hurt. So I

954
00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:06,880
Speaker 2: have to imagine somewhere along the line there was a

955
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 2: producer of this documentary that went, damn, that's not quite

956
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,680
Speaker 2: how we wanted to go. And then I'm a huge

957
00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:16,680
Speaker 2: fan of aman Ross Saint.

958
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 10: Brown Man, his whole fans, so the whole family, they're

959
00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:25,320
Speaker 10: they're like wild, but he's a little he's just a

960
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:28,600
Speaker 10: little dry in his sort of delivery.

961
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,920
Speaker 2: So that's that's my review of it. But it's really

962
00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:32,560
Speaker 2: good stuff.

963
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:39,440
Speaker 5: I love it. I think it gives great insight into players.

964
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:43,960
Speaker 4: I think you get to really see what those hits

965
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:48,680
Speaker 4: that you see, your favorite, your your favorite point getter

966
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:53,960
Speaker 4: in in in fantasy football. I love it because it

967
00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:58,560
Speaker 4: humanizes I spoke last week at the top of the

968
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:03,080
Speaker 4: show about human eye being humans, right, And I love

969
00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:08,000
Speaker 4: these documentaries because we get so enthralled in the entertainment.

970
00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:09,680
Speaker 5: Aspect of sport.

971
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:14,880
Speaker 4: Are movies our TV that we forget we're actually watching

972
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 4: humans that have wives and children and responsibilities outside of

973
00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:22,040
Speaker 4: their job.

974
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 3: Because that's all it is.

975
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,800
Speaker 5: It's a job. It's a job everybody can't.

976
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,480
Speaker 3: Do, no doubt, but it's a job.

977
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,160
Speaker 2: There's no way for fans to do this, and I

978
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,120
Speaker 2: wouldn't ask for them too. Like, the whole point of

979
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:38,920
Speaker 2: this is it is entertainment, and we're never gonna stop

980
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:44,440
Speaker 2: fans from sitting around screaming at TVs, eating nachos, drinking beer,

981
00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 2: high fiving, and getting frustrated.

982
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:47,440
Speaker 3: That's the deal.

983
00:58:48,320 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 2: Nothing's ever gonna like when you lose your fantasy game

984
00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 2: by one.

985
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:53,560
Speaker 3: Point three points.

986
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:58,160
Speaker 2: I'm not like, who's the person that's gonna be like, well, look,

987
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,720
Speaker 2: we don't know what's going on behind the scenes.

988
00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:05,360
Speaker 3: He might have had a rough week, maybe his mom

989
00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 3: is sick. No one's gonna do that, but it's tremendous

990
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 3: after the fact.

991
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 2: I can remember the primetime game between the Lions and

992
00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:21,000
Speaker 2: the Raiders. I can remember it so well. And we're

993
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:24,680
Speaker 2: watching this game. My son's got Davante on his team.

994
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:28,520
Speaker 2: I've got Aman Rahan mine, and we're just sitting there

995
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:32,400
Speaker 2: like dumb Americans, you know, shoveling food into our faces.

996
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,160
Speaker 3: You know, come on, throw the ball to my guy.

997
00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 3: Little do we know?

998
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:41,200
Speaker 2: Davante is literally having the equivalent of an NFL midlife crisis,

999
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 2: and aman Ra's got hand, foot in mouth disease and

1000
00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:51,080
Speaker 2: has covered his whole body with all kinds of clothing

1001
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 2: and says that when the ball hits his hands it

1002
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 2: feels like needles.

1003
00:59:56,440 --> 01:00:02,240
Speaker 5: I'm just like, holy hell, yeah, man, for a minute.

1004
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 2: It'll make you feel guilty, it really will, because I'm like,

1005
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:08,680
Speaker 2: the nachos are delicious when you throw it to Amen Ra, please,

1006
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:12,520
Speaker 2: I had that little little do you know what's going on?

1007
01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:17,959
Speaker 4: That's the point, yes, right you. It's easy to sit

1008
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:21,760
Speaker 4: and watch. It's it's like, oh, come on, man, do

1009
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:25,000
Speaker 4: this and do that and just de bo right him

1010
01:00:25,240 --> 01:00:27,440
Speaker 4: coming out of that playoff game. Everybody come as a

1011
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 4: playoff game. I mean, goodness, gracious, And the thing I

1012
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 4: really I'm on episode eight and so we just did

1013
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:37,160
Speaker 4: the NFC Championship game.

1014
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:38,520
Speaker 3: Don't spoil it for me.

1015
01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:41,200
Speaker 5: When you know what happens in the NFC Championship game.

1016
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 4: We actually forty nine ers rally and win, and we

1017
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:48,120
Speaker 4: actually talked about some of the decisions. The decisions that

1018
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:51,800
Speaker 4: Dan Campbell made are even worse now.

1019
01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 3: I can't wait to get in there.

1020
01:00:53,720 --> 01:00:58,120
Speaker 5: It's even worse now when you see it like this.

1021
01:00:58,280 --> 01:00:58,440
Speaker 3: Now.

1022
01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:00,120
Speaker 4: I came right, we came right on the air, and

1023
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,360
Speaker 4: we talked about it the next day or whatever that is.

1024
01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:05,400
Speaker 4: I didn't understand. I thought it was the dumbest decisions,

1025
01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:07,880
Speaker 4: two of them. You leave six points on the on

1026
01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:12,440
Speaker 4: the on the field and you lose by three after

1027
01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:13,800
Speaker 4: being up by.

1028
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:16,600
Speaker 3: Seventeen seventeen and a half.

1029
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:20,040
Speaker 4: Yes, right, And so watching it back, I'm like, man,

1030
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:22,880
Speaker 4: this has gotta be one of the idiot. Well, well

1031
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 4: this is how we got here, and this is what

1032
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:28,600
Speaker 4: we're gonna do. Hey man, sometimes your ego and your

1033
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:34,960
Speaker 4: vibrado can choke out your opportunity, and that's exactly what happened.

1034
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,120
Speaker 4: You have to take those points. I'm in ros Saint

1035
01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 4: Brown's dad Mister Universe two times over. Was like, in

1036
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:47,200
Speaker 4: the moment, you gotta take the points. You gotta take

1037
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 4: the points. This is the playoffs. Baby, points are at

1038
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 4: a premium.

1039
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:54,600
Speaker 2: Well, those are the only to me, those are the

1040
01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:58,840
Speaker 2: only people that get to talk. It was that your

1041
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:03,479
Speaker 2: opinion in the moment, mine get yeah, not mine too.

1042
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:06,320
Speaker 2: And again but I was loving it because I'm a

1043
01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:06,919
Speaker 2: forty nine.

1044
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:09,200
Speaker 5: Er, right, you were like, yes, do it. It's thirty four.

1045
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 5: It's courting for it. Absolutely for it.

1046
01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:12,920
Speaker 3: Go for it.

1047
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:13,160
Speaker 2: Dan.

1048
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,920
Speaker 3: I was like, uh, Renee Russo in tin Cup, go

1049
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:21,560
Speaker 3: for it? Who cares? Just whatever? Yeah? Great?

1050
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 2: But uh but no, my opinion in the moment was

1051
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:28,480
Speaker 2: I can't believe he's doing this. But for people that that, yeah,

1052
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:30,680
Speaker 2: we love it, damn goes for it. And then after

1053
01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 2: the game you're like, Damn, it didn't work. Dan's an idiot. No,

1054
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 2: you don't get to do that. You don't get to

1055
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:36,920
Speaker 2: do that. You got it.

1056
01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 4: And that's that's experience, that's knowing the situation. Who knows it.

1057
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:46,360
Speaker 4: This was something think about the history of those two

1058
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:51,960
Speaker 4: bad calls, the opportunity to go to the Super Bowl

1059
01:02:52,920 --> 01:02:55,040
Speaker 4: for the Detroit the Lions.

1060
01:02:56,640 --> 01:02:59,360
Speaker 5: Bro, what is happening.

1061
01:03:00,440 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 3: Looks?

1062
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 4: I know what it feels like because when I played

1063
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:07,960
Speaker 4: in Atlanta and we were playing in Minnesota. Yeah, in

1064
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:15,320
Speaker 4: the NFC Championship game, if we would have decided to

1065
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:20,120
Speaker 4: do this or do two plays and we didn't win.

1066
01:03:21,680 --> 01:03:23,600
Speaker 5: Like that is forever.

1067
01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:28,040
Speaker 3: That's forever. That's forever. There's no guarantee that the Lions

1068
01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:28,920
Speaker 3: are going to get back to it.

1069
01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:34,840
Speaker 4: And it took the Atlanta Falcons what eighteen seventeen years

1070
01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:35,440
Speaker 4: to get.

1071
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:39,080
Speaker 3: Back exactly exactly. Yeah, that might have.

1072
01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:41,920
Speaker 2: Been his only shot, or he might win it all

1073
01:03:41,960 --> 01:03:43,320
Speaker 2: this year, but it might have been his own.

1074
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:44,080
Speaker 3: That could have been.

1075
01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:49,160
Speaker 4: And you have to make decisions based on now or never.

1076
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,640
Speaker 2: It's like us right now, we could go for it.

1077
01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:56,360
Speaker 2: We could keep talking, have the ability to do it.

1078
01:03:56,960 --> 01:04:00,040
Speaker 2: We could just take over and we could do so

1079
01:04:00,120 --> 01:04:01,400
Speaker 2: what has gotten us to this.

1080
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 3: Point in our lives.

1081
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:06,840
Speaker 2: Or we could take the points also known as Steve

1082
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:07,680
Speaker 2: de Sagers.

1083
01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:08,680
Speaker 3: Take the point points.

1084
01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:12,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, take the points. He's gonna he's gonna score. Come on, Steve,

1085
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:13,240
Speaker 2: give us some points.

1086
01:04:13,320 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 5: Always take let's lead.

1087
01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:18,680

1091
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:30,640

Speaker 9: in mind, will still have a.

1201
01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:04,479
Speaker 2: Compare Still not enough, would be my guest. Oh and

1202
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:08,120
Speaker 2: by the way, speaking of you guys, you'll love this.

1203
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:11,840
Speaker 2: We're sitting here talking about receivers. How important are they?

1204
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:13,040
Speaker 3: Right? What are they worth?

1205
01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:16,360
Speaker 2: And I'm sure you both know that one job in

1206
01:10:16,400 --> 01:10:19,280
Speaker 2: sports where the money has been going down, down, down,

1207
01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:24,600
Speaker 2: down is baseball manager. Major League Baseball manager in the

1208
01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:28,639
Speaker 2: age of analytics, has been really lessened, right. I wonder

1209
01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:32,240
Speaker 2: if you saw this story today, Steve, In that Giant's

1210
01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:35,160
Speaker 2: Rockies game, Bob Melvin, the manager of the Giants, got

1211
01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:38,960
Speaker 2: thrown out before the game even started. The umpiring has

1212
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:41,719
Speaker 2: been weird in this series, and so he got into

1213
01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:44,240
Speaker 2: it at home plate when he was given out the

1214
01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:48,320
Speaker 2: lineup card and he got tossed. Now, how important is

1215
01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:52,479
Speaker 2: the manager to a game? Rookie pitcher Hayden bird Song

1216
01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:56,439
Speaker 2: throws six innings, allows just two runs, and strikes out

1217
01:10:56,479 --> 01:11:01,600
Speaker 2: twelve and says after the game he didn't.

1218
01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:01,960
Speaker 3: Even know.

1219
01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:07,439
Speaker 2: That the manager had been injected until he got all

1220
01:11:07,479 --> 01:11:10,519
Speaker 2: the way back into the clubhouse after his outing and

1221
01:11:10,760 --> 01:11:14,400
Speaker 2: was like, what are you doing back here? That's how

1222
01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:15,479
Speaker 2: important the manager is.

1223
01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:17,640
Speaker 5: That It is funny, astounding.

1224
01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:20,160
Speaker 9: And by the way, the manager for the Giants did

1225
01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:22,160
Speaker 9: say afterwards, well, I just talked too much.

1226
01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:23,240
Speaker 4: Too much.

1227
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:26,120
Speaker 9: I went out with the bench coach delivering the lineup card. Hey,

1228
01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:27,479
Speaker 9: i'mpiring's a hard job.

1229
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:28,160
Speaker 8: I'm aware of that.

1230
01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 9: Probably just said too much. Didn't plan, it wasn't choreographed. No,

1231
01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:35,320
Speaker 9: I probably just went too far. But the fact that

1232
01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:39,840
Speaker 9: today's starting pitcher did not know his own manager was no.

1233
01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 9: And the starting pitcher who was there for quite some time.

1234
01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:45,759
Speaker 9: It's not like he was pulled in the second inning here.

1235
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:49,040
Speaker 2: No, through six innings and you would think this is

1236
01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 2: like his fifth major league start. You're thinking'd be looking

1237
01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:55,799
Speaker 2: to the guy for some advice. Am I staying in Yeah.

1238
01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:57,360
Speaker 8: He's getting one hundred pitches.

1239
01:11:57,520 --> 01:12:00,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, Like, what do you think skip? No, not

1240
01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:01,000
Speaker 3: even there.

1241
01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:02,280
Speaker 5: He doesn't know, didn't know.

1242
01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:05,000
Speaker 9: And this is on the day where manager Jim Leland

1243
01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:07,519
Speaker 9: gets into the Hall of Fame and guys, if he's there.

1244
01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 9: I mean, Bobby Cox used to get paid a lot

1245
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:12,679
Speaker 9: and Tommy Lasorta had total control compared to the control

1246
01:12:12,760 --> 01:12:15,880
Speaker 9: Tommy Lesorta head to the control that Dave Roberts has

1247
01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:19,599
Speaker 9: as the Dodgers skipper. Now, I mean it's astoundingly different,

1248
01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,439
Speaker 9: as people found out in the Dodgers postseason runs like

1249
01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:26,200
Speaker 9: five six years ago, when the starter just wasn't allowed

1250
01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:28,280
Speaker 9: to go through the lineup a third time. Who cares

1251
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:30,280
Speaker 9: if he's only gone three and a third, you're out.

1252
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:32,599
Speaker 9: Let's go to the bullpen for the rest of the night.

1253
01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:34,080
Speaker 9: Not the manager's decision.

1254
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:38,040
Speaker 2: Oh man, all right, great stuff, Steve, and I can't

1255
01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:39,600
Speaker 2: wait to hear from you next hour. We're in the

1257
01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:44,200
Speaker 2: human side, which I love, but I didn't get a

1258
01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:48,880
Speaker 2: chance to ask you the very specific wide receiver question

1259
01:12:49,080 --> 01:12:51,519
Speaker 2: that I wanted to ask you, So we'll do that

1260
01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:54,559
Speaker 2: coming up next. We'll get to that w NBA All

1261
01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:57,720
Speaker 2: Star Game at the top of the hour tirek dot

1262
01:12:57,760 --> 01:12:59,840
Speaker 2: Com Studios with me from salam Mark Weather.

1263
01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:01,480
Speaker 3: This is Fox Sports Radio.

1264
01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:04,720
Speaker 2: Well that's appropriate right there, Eric, because I'm watching receivers

1265
01:13:04,720 --> 01:13:07,040
Speaker 2: and I'm like, man, it is my mind playing tricks

1266
01:13:07,080 --> 01:13:10,680
Speaker 2: on me. We're live inthe tire rag dot com studios.

1267
01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:13,880
Speaker 2: That's e from salam My Mark Whether. Here's what I'm saying.

1268
01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:18,280
Speaker 2: Go back to I think it was episode four where

1269
01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:21,679
Speaker 2: they profile that three game losing streak for the forty

1270
01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:22,240
Speaker 2: nine ers.

1271
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:26,880
Speaker 5: They go to, it's more impossible to cope.

1272
01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:27,920
Speaker 3: There you go.

1273
01:13:28,200 --> 01:13:34,000
Speaker 5: I feel like I'm the one that's singing. I'm sorry.

1274
01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:36,439
Speaker 3: I was doing dope.

1275
01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:38,679
Speaker 5: You know. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

1276
01:13:38,920 --> 01:13:44,519
Speaker 2: No, No, you're good. It takes you to a certain place, man. Anyway,

1277
01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:46,360
Speaker 2: Deebo gets hurt in Cleveland.

1278
01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:50,640
Speaker 3: And leaves and they lose, and then turns out he's

1279
01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:51,639
Speaker 3: got a hairline fracture.

1280
01:13:51,720 --> 01:13:54,800
Speaker 2: He misses the next game and they lose, and then

1281
01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:57,800
Speaker 2: they misses the next game and they lose, and then

1282
01:13:57,800 --> 01:13:59,719
Speaker 2: they go to a bye week, and then he comes

1283
01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:01,960
Speaker 2: back and all of a sudden, the Niners look like

1284
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:07,880
Speaker 2: the Niners again, and I'm listening to Shanahan.

1285
01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:09,960
Speaker 5: Fell on the Weekend, Me and Ghetto.

1286
01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:15,720
Speaker 3: It's a good line. It's a good line. I can't

1287
01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:17,719
Speaker 3: turn it off.

1288
01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:21,120
Speaker 2: Turn it off, or the show's over anyway. Now, I'm

1289
01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:25,240
Speaker 2: listening to Party and Shanahan talk about the things that

1290
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:29,639
Speaker 2: Debo does and the way the offense is based around him,

1291
01:14:29,760 --> 01:14:33,320
Speaker 2: things that fans don't see because I Uk is the

1292
01:14:33,400 --> 01:14:36,639
Speaker 2: thirteen hundred and fifty yard receiver and Deebo's the nine

1293
01:14:36,720 --> 01:14:39,479
Speaker 2: hundred yard receiver, and I know that they run the

1294
01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,320
Speaker 2: ball with them and all that stuff. But I'm listening

1295
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:48,320
Speaker 2: to them talk about his importance in terms of stuff

1296
01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:52,280
Speaker 2: that's happening on the field that people don't see. And

1297
01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:56,840
Speaker 2: I'm taking those comments and I'm projecting them into these

1298
01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:03,360
Speaker 2: negotiations that the Niners are having with Brandon Ayuk. And

1299
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:11,640
Speaker 2: I'm wondering because the popular thought has been I Yuk extension,

1300
01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:17,080
Speaker 2: get one more year with Debo, then cut Debo. He's older,

1301
01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:22,400
Speaker 2: he's more injure, he's more injury prone, and you're not gonna,

1302
01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:24,599
Speaker 2: as you detailed, we're not going to be.

1303
01:15:24,640 --> 01:15:27,840
Speaker 3: Paying to You're not going to be paying to receivers.

1304
01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:34,799
Speaker 2: That's been the common thought, and they supposedly shopped both

1305
01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:39,040
Speaker 2: receivers before the draft as well, or at least took calls.

1306
01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:41,599
Speaker 3: I want to know if.

1307
01:15:41,439 --> 01:15:45,920
Speaker 2: You'll debunk this thought right now here on Fox Sports Radio.

1308
01:15:46,080 --> 01:15:47,959
Speaker 3: Which receiver is more.

1309
01:15:47,840 --> 01:15:51,880
Speaker 2: Important to the forty nine ers now and going forward,

1310
01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:52,840
Speaker 2: both Samuels?

1311
01:15:53,040 --> 01:15:53,320
Speaker 3: Why?

1312
01:15:54,160 --> 01:16:01,559
Speaker 4: Because Deebo Samuels is a tempo setter, right, Deebo is

1313
01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:12,839
Speaker 4: a glue guy. People, look, Deebo Samuels will set the tone. Okay,

1314
01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:16,879
Speaker 4: when you have a receiver that can set the tone

1315
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:24,120
Speaker 4: the physicality aspect of the game, and you can put

1316
01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:27,920
Speaker 4: him in a position where there's nothing you can do

1317
01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:33,200
Speaker 4: defensively to take him away. Right, you line Brandon Nayute

1318
01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:37,920
Speaker 4: out there, there's no Debo in the slot. Now, you

1319
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:41,120
Speaker 4: can put a safety over the top, and you can

1320
01:16:41,160 --> 01:16:45,000
Speaker 4: bang Kittle around with the linebacker and uh, you know,

1321
01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:47,960
Speaker 4: a corner or the safety. But when you put Deebo

1322
01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:51,840
Speaker 4: lined up at X and he motions into the backfield,

1323
01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:56,360
Speaker 4: Christian McCaffrey replaces him, deba like what do we do?

1324
01:16:57,160 --> 01:17:03,439
Speaker 4: Who's what's happening? But not only that, when he actually

1325
01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:09,479
Speaker 4: gets the ball in his hands, being able to bring

1326
01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:13,320
Speaker 4: him down and stop him from gaining yards after the

1327
01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:19,720
Speaker 4: catch is an impossible task. So as an offensive coordinator,

1328
01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:22,760
Speaker 4: as an organization, as a head coach, as an ownership,

1329
01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:29,639
Speaker 4: I want the guy that brings more facets to the tap.

1330
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:33,360
Speaker 4: I want the guy who can do more things, who

1331
01:17:33,400 --> 01:17:39,960
Speaker 4: can help us the most period we drafted are us replacement.

1332
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:43,200
Speaker 5: They gonna come.

1333
01:17:43,120 --> 01:17:46,240
Speaker 4: Along, they gonna learn that this is how it goes.

1334
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:52,400
Speaker 4: They didn't draft Debo's replacement. There aren't de bos out there.

1335
01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:58,639
Speaker 4: This is a special, special player who's not just used

1336
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:04,360
Speaker 4: as a receiver. He's used as a wrecking ball, a

1337
01:18:04,439 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 4: wrecking ball. And that's the point. It's just not about

1338
01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:13,439
Speaker 4: him running routes and catching passes. And you watched, as

1339
01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:20,559
Speaker 4: you watch receiver, you understand that more than anything. The fans,

1340
01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 4: everybody when Deebo gets the ball, people stand up and oh,

1341
01:18:32,360 --> 01:18:36,639
Speaker 4: by the way, all you have to do is ask

1342
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:42,720
Speaker 4: brock Party and he'll tell you who he prefers, what

1343
01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:48,400
Speaker 4: makes him more comfortable. Go ahead, just ask him. Yeah,

1344
01:18:48,520 --> 01:18:50,280
Speaker 4: that'll answer your questions right there.

1345
01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:54,040
Speaker 2: Well, and what it appears they're doing is leveraging the

1346
01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:57,160
Speaker 2: fact that Brandon Aiyuk has none of it. He has

1347
01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 2: no leverage, So option A he may well be for

1348
01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:04,000
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers to simply say, because as you said,

1349
01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:06,320
Speaker 2: they drafted his replacement. But you don't want to handle

1350
01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:08,880
Speaker 2: all that pressure to a rookie in a year where

1351
01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:10,880
Speaker 2: they feel like they've got to be a.

1352
01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:11,919
Speaker 3: Super Bowl contender.

1353
01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:15,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you make Brandon play on his fifty year

1354
01:19:15,479 --> 01:19:18,240
Speaker 2: options and then you say goodbye.

1355
01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:21,880
Speaker 3: He he doesn't have any leverage, He has no leverage.

1356
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:24,280
Speaker 2: He has to show up or he's putting tens of

1357
01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:27,640
Speaker 2: millions of dollars in a fireplace.

1358
01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:30,559
Speaker 4: You gotta show up, and you got to show out

1359
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:36,080
Speaker 4: because this is you're you're selling yourself. Yes, because if

1360
01:19:36,120 --> 01:19:38,920
Speaker 4: you sit out, say you just like, forget it, I'm

1361
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:41,439
Speaker 4: gonna sit out, and they go to the super Bowl

1362
01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:47,519
Speaker 4: and win. You just cut whatever you were gonna make

1363
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:49,679
Speaker 4: on an open market in half mm.

1364
01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:53,080
Speaker 5: Hmm, yep, period, yep, yep.

1365
01:19:53,200 --> 01:19:56,439
Speaker 2: And he needs the yep and he's and he needs

1366
01:19:56,479 --> 01:19:59,440
Speaker 2: the year of service, and they've still got the franchise

1367
01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:00,920
Speaker 2: tag to threaten over him.

1368
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:03,240
Speaker 5: I put it on thus that out and you don't

1369
01:20:03,240 --> 01:20:03,760
Speaker 5: get the year.

1370
01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:07,639
Speaker 2: The staircase of leverage that the forty nine ers have over.

1371
01:20:07,479 --> 01:20:09,120
Speaker 3: Brandon Ayuk is high.

1372
01:20:09,520 --> 01:20:12,160
Speaker 2: It is very, very high, which is why he's trying

1373
01:20:12,160 --> 01:20:16,960
Speaker 2: to use TikTok to get people on his side. But yeah,

1374
01:20:17,160 --> 01:20:20,599
Speaker 2: just me venturing a guest is not going to work,

1386
01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:54,880
Speaker 2: every year if you could, But there isn't a Team

1387
01:20:55,040 --> 01:20:58,559
Speaker 2: USA every year, and in the NBA there's never a

1388
01:20:58,600 --> 01:21:02,599
Speaker 2: Team USA is wrapped up and ready to go in

1389

Speaker 2: going huh, because that felt different, even though you can

1393
01:21:16,520 --> 01:21:21,200
Speaker 2: still make the case there's nothing really on the line here.

1394
01:21:22,000 --> 01:21:23,519
Speaker 3: I mean, that's true with a lot.

1395
01:21:23,320 --> 01:21:26,559
Speaker 2: Of sporting events that we sign up to watch and

1396
01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:32,679
Speaker 2: so this yesterday brought forth a little bit of young

1397
01:21:32,800 --> 01:21:40,880
Speaker 2: versus old, new versus establishment, and for whatever reason, it

1398
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:46,280
Speaker 2: brought out the best in the game women's basketball, playing hard,

1399
01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:52,360
Speaker 2: playing like they cared, and I think that's all fans

1400
01:21:52,400 --> 01:21:52,960
Speaker 2: ever need.

1401
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:58,559
Speaker 4: What did you see in this one? First off? It

1402
01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:06,200
Speaker 4: was amazing. It was a great It was a great game,

1403
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:22,400
Speaker 4: unbelievable game, and it demolished the level of excitement that

1404
01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:26,080
Speaker 4: NBA All Star weekend has.

1405
01:22:26,800 --> 01:22:29,360
Speaker 5: Demolished. I'll take that.

1406
01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:34,880
Speaker 4: Those women, they were out there playing ball, man, they

1407
01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:38,920
Speaker 4: enjoyed it. I enjoyed watching it. I watched the entire game.

1408
01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:45,599
Speaker 4: I love seeing Caitlyn Clark out there killing it. It's

1409
01:22:45,640 --> 01:22:48,799
Speaker 4: amazing how many assists you can have when you passing

1410
01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:53,360
Speaker 4: to the best of the best, and they're catching those

1411
01:22:53,400 --> 01:22:57,040
Speaker 4: passes and they're reading, anticipating where the ball is going

1412
01:22:57,120 --> 01:23:00,240
Speaker 4: to be instead of being surprised when it gets there.

1413
01:23:01,560 --> 01:23:06,360
Speaker 4: Love what Angel Reyes did. Love her coming right out

1414
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:13,639
Speaker 4: and battling, you know, Agent Wilson, just going at it,

1415
01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:17,320
Speaker 4: one of her idols, coming right in, getting the offensive rebound,

1416
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:20,560
Speaker 4: getting a put back, having a double double. In the

1417
01:23:20,640 --> 01:23:23,240
Speaker 4: All Star Game, both of those two young rookies were

1418
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:28,320
Speaker 4: flirting with, you know, all time rookie records, and you know,

1419
01:23:28,439 --> 01:23:33,519
Speaker 4: Caitlin was two assists away from the assist record for

1420
01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:39,719
Speaker 4: an All Star game for anybody, and it just was amazing.

1421
01:23:39,800 --> 01:23:45,839
Speaker 4: Team USA, they're great, but that youth and that speed

1422
01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:50,439
Speaker 4: and I can't, I can't talk about the team.

1423
01:23:50,640 --> 01:23:51,599
Speaker 5: What I'm talking about?

1424
01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:51,800
Speaker 3: What?

1425
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,439
Speaker 4: Please help me pronounce her name? I do not want

1426
01:23:54,479 --> 01:24:00,439
Speaker 4: to mess it up. Which one? Now the MVP of

1427
01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:04,800
Speaker 4: the of the game, Steve, what is it you said,

1428
01:24:04,920 --> 01:24:16,960
Speaker 4: turning on Gombowale. She was on fire. I'm talking about

1429
01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:21,400
Speaker 4: she would step back one leg three. You know, she

1430
01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:25,240
Speaker 4: was in a zone and she was in that zone

1431
01:24:25,280 --> 01:24:29,240
Speaker 4: before in twenty twenty one in this very game, this

1432
01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:33,479
Speaker 4: very All Star game, going against Team USA. That was

1433
01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:37,439
Speaker 4: the other time she won MVP of the All Star Game.

1434
01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:43,959
Speaker 4: And it was it was, it was everything. It reminded

1435
01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:47,200
Speaker 4: me of when Kobe went Ham in Philly. It reminded

1436
01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:51,240
Speaker 4: me of when Jordan won Ham. Like back when they

1437
01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:54,960
Speaker 4: used to compete in these games, the Men's All Star Weekend.

1438
01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:56,439
Speaker 5: You can bottle it up and then you can go

1439
01:24:56,439 --> 01:24:57,160
Speaker 5: on and ship it out.

1440
01:24:57,600 --> 01:24:59,400
Speaker 4: Oh god, you can go and ball it up and

1441
01:24:59,439 --> 01:25:02,840
Speaker 4: ship it out from the skills, the dunk, the three

1442
01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:06,840
Speaker 4: point and the game. You can keep it. I would

1443
01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:14,080
Speaker 4: rather them just take a break because it's unwatchable. It began,

1444
01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:16,840
Speaker 4: it began what to be what the Pro Bowl was?

1445
01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:20,720
Speaker 4: What's the point when you put the best players in

1446
01:25:20,760 --> 01:25:25,320
Speaker 4: the world against each other? And so I love the

1447
01:25:25,320 --> 01:25:27,200
Speaker 4: fact that they were out there competing the way they

1448
01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:32,559
Speaker 4: were competing. I love the fact that the pride was there.

1449
01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:36,360
Speaker 4: It was personal, right. I'm sure some of those women

1450
01:25:36,400 --> 01:25:40,200
Speaker 4: who were NBA WNBA All Stars felt that they maybe

1451
01:25:40,320 --> 01:25:45,160
Speaker 4: possibly should have had a spot on the national team.

1452
01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:49,200
Speaker 4: So you get that little edge out there. But it

1453
01:25:49,320 --> 01:25:53,000
Speaker 4: was entertaining. I loved it. I loved it for them.

1454
01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:55,880
Speaker 4: I wonder what type of number it did. I know

1455
01:25:55,960 --> 01:25:58,800
Speaker 4: it was over almost seventeen thousand people in attendance. It

1456
01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:02,880
Speaker 4: was sold out and Phoenix. I love that. And you know,

1457
01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:06,080
Speaker 4: I also love the break that they're gonna have because

1458
01:26:06,080 --> 01:26:08,599
Speaker 4: that means we're gonna get back to some real high

1459
01:26:08,720 --> 01:26:11,120
Speaker 4: level basketball after the Olympics.

1460
01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:16,360
Speaker 2: Would you say, look, I'm trying to look at ratings

1461
01:26:16,439 --> 01:26:19,040
Speaker 2: right now since you brought it up, to see if

1462
01:26:19,080 --> 01:26:26,759
Speaker 2: there's anything out there wm a viewership, tops records. Let's see,

1463
01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:33,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if this is just the All Star Game. Yeah,

1464
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:36,160
Speaker 2: I'm not sure. Let's see Saturday's All Star Game.

1465
01:26:37,800 --> 01:26:38,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1466
01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:43,360
Speaker 2: Anyway, I can't find any rating information yet. But your

1467
01:26:43,479 --> 01:26:45,240
Speaker 2: larger point is an easy one to make. And I

1468
01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:49,519
Speaker 2: said this yesterday on on on Fox Sports Radio when

1469
01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:52,280
Speaker 2: when Carrie and I were hanging out in the morning yesterday.

1470
01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:55,960
Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark is is the Tiger Woods of.

1471
01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:57,800
Speaker 3: The w n b A.

1472
01:26:58,960 --> 01:27:02,080
Speaker 2: She has that the the most underdiscussed story I thought

1473
01:27:02,120 --> 01:27:06,360
Speaker 2: this week was the fact that and it's not official yet,

1474
01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:10,240
Speaker 2: but the word is is that as the NBA does

1475
01:27:10,360 --> 01:27:14,519
Speaker 2: its new TV deal, the WNBA is wrapped up into that.

1476
01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:19,559
Speaker 2: So what portion is the WNBA up until this point?

1477
01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:25,320
Speaker 2: Sixty million per year was the WNBA TV contract. Word

1478
01:27:25,439 --> 01:27:30,559
Speaker 2: is in the new agreement two hundred million dollars per year.

1479
01:27:31,200 --> 01:27:34,160
Speaker 2: And in fact, there are those in WNBA circles that

1480
01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:36,080
Speaker 2: say that's a little low.

1481
01:27:37,520 --> 01:27:41,720
Speaker 5: It should probably be higher. Well, slow down, set it down?

1482
01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:48,040
Speaker 4: Why because we have to has to be sustained.

1483
01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:50,080
Speaker 3: No. Yeah, and I'm not arguing that.

1484
01:27:50,520 --> 01:27:52,439
Speaker 4: Are you going from sixty to two hundred and then

1485
01:27:52,479 --> 01:27:55,360
Speaker 4: you're balking at the two hundred is like whoa because

1486
01:27:55,360 --> 01:27:57,559
Speaker 4: what's going to happen is these salaries are now going

1487
01:27:57,600 --> 01:28:01,759
Speaker 4: to increase, exactly salary. The reason going to increase because

1488
01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:05,760
Speaker 4: viewership is there, the buzz is there, the entertainment values there,

1489
01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:07,080
Speaker 4: which was is amazing.

1490
01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:09,559
Speaker 5: But what you don't want to do is be like,

1491
01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:14,680
Speaker 5: oh no, this is a travesty. Still like that's a

1492
01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:17,559
Speaker 5: and forty million dollar increase.

1493
01:28:18,120 --> 01:28:20,200
Speaker 3: Oh it's yes.

1494
01:28:20,840 --> 01:28:25,040
Speaker 4: So that's why I'm like, hey, let's.

1495
01:28:25,600 --> 01:28:26,280
Speaker 5: What are we doing.

1496
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:33,160
Speaker 2: It's a let's see the sixty one twenty one eighty two,

1497
01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:36,200
Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty percent increase.

1498
01:28:36,320 --> 01:28:40,760
Speaker 3: Do I have that about right? Yes? Yeah, so look, no,

1499
01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:43,200
Speaker 3: I'm with you, and.

1500
01:28:43,720 --> 01:28:47,320
Speaker 2: Look the fighter points of the league and the dollars

1501
01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:50,360
Speaker 2: and cents, that's for someone else to hash out to me.

1502
01:28:50,439 --> 01:28:53,519
Speaker 2: It's more of a general thing for for us to

1503
01:28:53,560 --> 01:28:57,120
Speaker 2: look at, which is it's the same arc of what

1504
01:28:57,320 --> 01:29:01,080
Speaker 2: happened when Tiger came in golf is establishment looked at

1505
01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:07,240
Speaker 2: him and went all right, who's this guy with all

1506
01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:11,360
Speaker 2: the buzz about him? And then he arrived and people

1507
01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:16,679
Speaker 2: really really were interested, and the other players in golf

1508
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:20,760
Speaker 2: were like, stop asking me about Tiger, and ask me

1509
01:29:20,840 --> 01:29:24,120
Speaker 2: about me, because I've been here for a while, and

1510
01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:26,479
Speaker 2: this is big boy golf, and we'll see if he

1511
01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:28,640
Speaker 2: can do it. But I want you to ask me

1512
01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:32,000
Speaker 2: about me because this is real. And then he got

1513
01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:35,160
Speaker 2: to a point where Tiger was like, oh, he is

1514
01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:38,160
Speaker 2: the best thing ever. And so people would still kind of,

1515
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:42,920
Speaker 2: I think quietly roll their eyes, but publicly they would

1516
01:29:42,960 --> 01:29:47,240
Speaker 2: give respect. And then what do they do now? Now

1517
01:29:47,320 --> 01:29:51,400
Speaker 2: you can't find a golfer to know Tiger? Tiger, Tiger's

1518
01:29:51,439 --> 01:29:56,000
Speaker 2: my best friend. Tiger is incredible because Tiger, and what

1519
01:29:56,040 --> 01:29:59,720
Speaker 2: they're basically saying is the third and fourth bedrooms in

1520
01:29:59,760 --> 01:30:04,240
Speaker 2: all of their homes because our because of Tiger.

1521
01:30:05,520 --> 01:30:08,320
Speaker 3: And and so we're going to get there in w

1522
01:30:08,560 --> 01:30:09,439
Speaker 3: n b A as well.

1523
01:30:09,760 --> 01:30:15,560
Speaker 4: Yes, yes we will. And then much deserve, much deserved.

1524
01:30:16,080 --> 01:30:22,240
Speaker 4: Now on the flip side of that, the men's national team,

1525
01:30:22,600 --> 01:30:28,360
Speaker 4: who also had a game uh this weekend air quotes

1526
01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:36,599
Speaker 4: game friendly tune up against South Sudan just really became

1527
01:30:36,600 --> 01:30:47,639
Speaker 4: a country. And when I tell you, they got all

1528
01:30:47,800 --> 01:30:57,920
Speaker 4: they could handle. And then some I said it at

1529
01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:00,679
Speaker 4: the end of the basketball season, going into and going

1530
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:05,640
Speaker 4: when they put the team together, we're going to be

1531
01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:08,439
Speaker 4: in trouble. Does that mean we're not gonna win goal.

1532
01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:13,120
Speaker 4: That's not what I'm talking about. The expectation of a

1533
01:31:13,200 --> 01:31:19,840
Speaker 4: team going undefeated and winning goal is the standard. It's

1534
01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:23,720
Speaker 4: the standard. That's what we're talking about when we talk

1535
01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:30,479
Speaker 4: about our best players in the world going up against

1536
01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:38,080
Speaker 4: everyone else. So our standard is set by the dream

1537
01:31:38,160 --> 01:31:44,240
Speaker 4: team beat everybody by forty cruise to the gold medal.

1538
01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:52,840
Speaker 4: Now we know that the world has caught up and

1539
01:31:52,920 --> 01:31:58,880
Speaker 4: so now it's not that anymore. But the standard is

1540
01:31:59,160 --> 01:32:01,320
Speaker 4: we're not going to give games away. We're not going

1541
01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:06,720
Speaker 4: to lose to anyone, wool play, none of that. But

1542
01:32:06,800 --> 01:32:09,200
Speaker 4: they forgot to tell everybody else that they have to

1543
01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:16,320
Speaker 4: adhere to that because these players who play in the

1544
01:32:16,439 --> 01:32:20,680
Speaker 4: NBA and play against these great players are joining their

1545
01:32:20,720 --> 01:32:27,519
Speaker 4: teams that have been playing together and a good it's

1546
01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:30,760
Speaker 4: about five of those guys from South Sudan who need

1547
01:32:30,800 --> 01:32:34,320
Speaker 4: to be I remember when Gabriel was in Who's at

1548
01:32:34,320 --> 01:32:38,519
Speaker 4: the Lakers. He was at the and every time he

1549
01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:42,879
Speaker 4: came in and did something great, I would just say, African,

1550
01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:47,800
Speaker 4: you got that African blood coursing through your body, man,

1551
01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:51,599
Speaker 4: And I made a joke, like we playing basketball, they

1552
01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:57,200
Speaker 4: playing for freedom. They're playing for the right to represent

1553
01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:01,160
Speaker 4: their country that is war torn. They were saying, they

1554
01:33:01,160 --> 01:33:04,040
Speaker 4: don't even have there are no indoor gyms in the

1555
01:33:04,080 --> 01:33:10,839
Speaker 4: South sident, none to where these practices held.

1556
01:33:10,920 --> 01:33:13,799
Speaker 5: You see what I'm saying. They're playing for something bigger

1557
01:33:13,840 --> 01:33:15,519
Speaker 5: than basketball.

1558
01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:18,000
Speaker 2: Totally, and that's that is something that is baked in

1559
01:33:18,280 --> 01:33:23,880
Speaker 2: I think against these Team USA situations because whether it's

1560
01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:28,200
Speaker 2: the players themselves, the fans, whatever we expect, no matter what,

1561
01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:31,479
Speaker 2: all you got to do is show up. All you

1562
01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:33,320
Speaker 2: have to do is show up. You waltz in there

1563
01:33:33,520 --> 01:33:36,600
Speaker 2: and you're better than everybody. And it's just not true anymore,

1564
01:33:37,680 --> 01:33:41,320
Speaker 2: especially when no matter how talented they are, they they

1565
01:33:41,360 --> 01:33:44,639
Speaker 2: are still just basketball players who are thrown together. They

1566
01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:46,880
Speaker 2: don't have plays, they don't not like that, know, the

1567
01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:51,920
Speaker 2: little idiosyncrasies of one another like it just it doesn't

1568
01:33:51,960 --> 01:33:55,720
Speaker 2: work anymore. I do not expect them to win gold.

1569
01:33:56,880 --> 01:33:59,080
Speaker 5: I do not may better.

1570
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:04,040
Speaker 2: I would be surprised if they did. They better, they

1571
01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:07,000
Speaker 2: better or what they better win goal? I know that

1572
01:34:07,560 --> 01:34:10,200
Speaker 2: or what? Or they need to give some money back.

1573
01:34:11,800 --> 01:34:14,280
Speaker 2: That's what they need to give some money back.

1574
01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:16,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, so we get into that.

1575
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:19,400
Speaker 2: I'd also love to hear if you've got any ideas

1576
01:34:19,760 --> 01:34:24,080
Speaker 2: on how other All Star games, particularly the NBA All

1577
01:34:24,120 --> 01:34:27,560
Speaker 2: Star Game, could find ways to mimic what the WNBA

1578
01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:30,600
Speaker 2: did yesterday. So all of that is ahead with you

1579
01:34:30,680 --> 01:34:34,439
Speaker 2: from salam Mark Willard, Fox Sports Radio. Okay, y'all have

1588
01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:03,960
Speaker 2: there a way to mimic this what the WNBA did

1589
01:35:03,960 --> 01:35:06,960
Speaker 2: with the All Star Game yesterday?

1590
01:35:08,040 --> 01:35:08,320
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1591
01:35:08,560 --> 01:35:14,840
Speaker 2: I mean effort, Well, effort, Okay, what's gonna bring effort?

1592
01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:21,519
Speaker 4: You can't make people give effort. I it has to

1593
01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:26,600
Speaker 4: be important. Everybody so friendly, everybody's so buddy buddy with

1594
01:35:26,720 --> 01:35:30,519
Speaker 4: each other. And I'm not saying that's a bad thing.

1595
01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:33,759
Speaker 4: We need more friends and more love in the world,

1596
01:35:34,360 --> 01:35:39,759
Speaker 4: but when you're competing against each other. The older guys

1597
01:35:40,479 --> 01:35:44,280
Speaker 4: had a situation to where they could turn that off.

1598
01:35:44,760 --> 01:35:49,439
Speaker 4: Magic and Jordan loved each other, but they love competing

1599
01:35:49,479 --> 01:35:54,519
Speaker 4: against each other more Isaiah and Magic Bird and Magic

1600
01:35:56,880 --> 01:36:03,840
Speaker 4: Kareem doctor j All. Yeah, nobody was Barkley Jordan.

1601
01:36:04,960 --> 01:36:05,400
Speaker 5: Clyde.

1602
01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:09,160
Speaker 4: They all respected each other and liked each other, but

1603
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:13,880
Speaker 4: what they wanted to do was they wanted to beat

1604
01:36:13,920 --> 01:36:18,960
Speaker 4: each other all Star game, regular season game, playoff game,

1605
01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:27,040
Speaker 4: pickup game. And a little bit of that is not

1606
01:36:27,120 --> 01:36:31,080
Speaker 4: a little bit. A lot of that is gone. It's

1607
01:36:31,080 --> 01:36:33,400
Speaker 4: all gone. It's just now. It's just.

1608
01:36:35,760 --> 01:36:39,120
Speaker 5: You know, bugattis and summer homes.

1609
01:36:39,400 --> 01:36:43,040
Speaker 2: Well, here's you're right. So here, that's actually the thing

1610
01:36:43,640 --> 01:36:48,479
Speaker 2: I think you could get. You can get people to

1611
01:36:48,640 --> 01:36:55,600
Speaker 2: care based on certain sort of circumstantial factors.

1612
01:36:56,320 --> 01:36:58,920
Speaker 3: And here's the real here's the real deal.

1613
01:37:00,120 --> 01:37:04,719
Speaker 2: WNBA is in a spot where every single woman who

1614
01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:11,360
Speaker 2: is in that league realizes lightning is striking and the

1615
01:37:11,439 --> 01:37:15,960
Speaker 2: time is right now that you have to be playing

1616
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:20,080
Speaker 2: your hardest, entertaining at your most. I mean, my goodness,

1617
01:37:20,080 --> 01:37:24,360
Speaker 2: have you noticed how brilliant so many of them are

1618
01:37:24,880 --> 01:37:26,360
Speaker 2: on social media right now?

1619
01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:30,240
Speaker 3: Just crushing it? And that's by design.

1620
01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:37,759
Speaker 2: Ladies, get out in public, Ladies, be on your Instagram. Yes,

1621
01:37:37,880 --> 01:37:42,559
Speaker 2: I'm sorry if this sounds a certain way like your

1622
01:37:42,640 --> 01:37:45,080
Speaker 2: outfits for your arrivals.

1623
01:37:44,520 --> 01:37:46,800
Speaker 3: At the game, like they get it. You have to

1624
01:37:46,840 --> 01:37:49,920
Speaker 3: play the game. This is actually true in the NBA too,

1625
01:37:49,960 --> 01:37:51,280
Speaker 3: so it's not a sexist thing.

1626
01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:56,360
Speaker 2: Watch Russell Westbrook arrive at a game like that's part

1627
01:37:56,600 --> 01:37:57,800
Speaker 2: of the show.

1628
01:37:59,080 --> 01:38:00,360
Speaker 3: And what's happened.

1629
01:38:00,400 --> 01:38:02,800
Speaker 2: I think with these NBA guys, as you put it

1630
01:38:03,320 --> 01:38:06,479
Speaker 2: just a moment ago, you can't get them to care

1631
01:38:06,520 --> 01:38:10,960
Speaker 2: because they're already made, and in fact, caring in an

1632
01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:12,599
Speaker 2: all star game is too much.

1633
01:38:12,479 --> 01:38:13,040
Speaker 3: Of a risk.

1634
01:38:15,120 --> 01:38:18,400
Speaker 2: The millions of dollars are too great to put on

1635
01:38:18,520 --> 01:38:22,000
Speaker 2: the line and put your body on the line when

1636
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:24,800
Speaker 2: you don't have to. The ladies right now are still

1637
01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:28,400
Speaker 2: trying to achieve the millions of dollars, so they're in

1638
01:38:28,520 --> 01:38:31,720
Speaker 2: go get it mode. The NBA is in we already

1639
01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:35,600
Speaker 2: got it mode. To me, that's the problem. But you

1640
01:38:35,760 --> 01:38:40,160
Speaker 2: still could try to get creative by instead of having

1641
01:38:40,240 --> 01:38:43,000
Speaker 2: all start to, Oh, let's do East versus Weft, let's

1642
01:38:43,000 --> 01:38:47,439
Speaker 2: do Lebron's team versus stepste Yeah, how about if you

1643
01:38:47,520 --> 01:38:49,479
Speaker 2: do that? Okay, that's better?

1644
01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:50,760
Speaker 5: No, that is it?

1645
01:38:51,160 --> 01:38:51,360
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1646
01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:53,839
Speaker 4: You do the USA versus the world?

1647
01:38:54,320 --> 01:38:56,400
Speaker 3: Okay, Yes, I'm watching.

1648
01:38:56,479 --> 01:38:59,120
Speaker 4: You want to talk about compete, that's we're about to

1649
01:38:59,120 --> 01:39:01,240
Speaker 4: go see that right now. We got a root awakening

1650
01:39:01,320 --> 01:39:04,960
Speaker 4: with that friendly against South Sudan. It's the USA versus

1651
01:39:04,960 --> 01:39:10,280
Speaker 4: the world. Now, you're going to take the best players

1652
01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:15,520
Speaker 4: in the NBA and put them all on one team,

1653
01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:20,000
Speaker 4: the best foreign players, put them all on one team

1654
01:39:20,520 --> 01:39:23,640
Speaker 4: and them compete against the All Stars.

1655
01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:24,479
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1656
01:39:24,920 --> 01:39:26,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking at I'm looking at the All Star

1657
01:39:27,040 --> 01:39:30,840
Speaker 2: rosters right now, and I'm trying to think about what

1658
01:39:31,000 --> 01:39:34,960
Speaker 2: the what the rest of the world roster would be.

1659
01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:46,559
Speaker 4: Lukauka Embiid, Jannis shay Yo Kids, Carol Ben Carrow, Ben

1660
01:39:46,640 --> 01:39:49,080
Speaker 4: Carrol Wimbin Yama.

1661
01:39:53,800 --> 01:39:56,080
Speaker 5: I mean it's sure, yeah.

1662
01:39:56,160 --> 01:40:02,559
Speaker 2: Sure, right versus Steph lebron A d Anthony Edwards, Jalen Brown,

1663
01:40:02,640 --> 01:40:08,360
Speaker 2: Jason Tatum, Jalen Bronson, Paul George, Kevin Durant.

1664
01:40:09,840 --> 01:40:12,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, So what's the hold up?

1665
01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:14,920
Speaker 5: Adam Silver doesn't want to do that?

1666
01:40:15,439 --> 01:40:15,839
Speaker 3: Why?

1667
01:40:16,240 --> 01:40:17,400
Speaker 5: Because you get exposed?

1668
01:40:18,080 --> 01:40:19,320
Speaker 3: What do you mean, you get exposed?

1669
01:40:19,840 --> 01:40:24,439
Speaker 4: You realize in front of the world, Oh, we don't

1670
01:40:24,479 --> 01:40:26,920
Speaker 4: have the best players in the world.

1671
01:40:28,160 --> 01:40:31,840
Speaker 2: Oh no, but but but sure you do because they're

1672
01:40:31,840 --> 01:40:33,479
Speaker 2: all in the NBA yeah.

1673
01:40:33,400 --> 01:40:39,240
Speaker 5: But it's different, is it. Yep? It is? Huh, it is.

1674
01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:41,680
Speaker 3: I'm not going to disagree with you.

1675
01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:43,320
Speaker 5: And but I hope because.

1676
01:40:44,560 --> 01:40:48,559
Speaker 4: Even though the money is the way it is because

1677
01:40:48,600 --> 01:40:51,439
Speaker 4: of your TV rights overseas, I mean, that's not coming

1678
01:40:51,479 --> 01:40:55,680
Speaker 4: from They're not getting that TV deal because American viewership.

1679
01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:59,040
Speaker 4: That's we know. That's not the truth. They don't even

1680
01:40:59,120 --> 01:41:00,520
Speaker 4: have Christmas Day anymore.

1681
01:41:00,760 --> 01:41:03,439
Speaker 2: By the way, are you so sure that that, yes, yes,

1682
01:41:03,520 --> 01:41:06,160
Speaker 2: that world team is better it is.

1683
01:41:07,120 --> 01:41:08,960
Speaker 3: Listen to the well, listen to the team.

1684
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:12,839
Speaker 4: I just just let me just throw this out at you. Okay,

1685
01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:21,080
Speaker 4: a team and before South Sudan, the US team had

1686
01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:29,439
Speaker 4: a problem with Australia. Okay, sure, right, and then they

1687
01:41:29,479 --> 01:41:32,080
Speaker 4: played South Sudan and.

1688
01:41:34,160 --> 01:41:35,559
Speaker 5: They were getting ran through.

1689
01:41:36,200 --> 01:41:38,000
Speaker 2: But I don't think this is a like for like

1690
01:41:38,120 --> 01:41:42,040
Speaker 2: comp because those are teams that play together throughout the year.

1691
01:41:42,120 --> 01:41:45,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, but the problem is there may be one or

1692
01:41:45,439 --> 01:41:49,320
Speaker 4: two NBA guys on those teams. You're talking about the

1693
01:41:49,360 --> 01:41:53,720
Speaker 4: best of the NBA all on one team. And oh,

1694
01:41:53,720 --> 01:41:55,760
Speaker 4: by the way, this whole running plays and all that,

1695
01:41:55,920 --> 01:41:58,960
Speaker 4: nobody in the NBA runs plays, and the plays that

1696
01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:03,080
Speaker 4: they do run everybody he runs them. Horn Zipper like

1697
01:42:04,080 --> 01:42:05,719
Speaker 4: they all run the same place.

1698
01:42:06,120 --> 01:42:09,599
Speaker 2: Okay, they do, but continuity in the NBA has also

1699
01:42:09,640 --> 01:42:10,639
Speaker 2: been proven to work.

1700
01:42:10,680 --> 01:42:11,920
Speaker 3: There's a reason for that.

1701
01:42:12,280 --> 01:42:15,599
Speaker 2: Team basketball matters if you're doing it for one game

1702
01:42:16,080 --> 01:42:20,560
Speaker 2: in February and both teams are just thrown together stars.

1703
01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:23,280
Speaker 3: I don't think one's got a big edge over the.

1704
01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:25,599
Speaker 5: Other, do you, Yeah, one wants to win more than

1705
01:42:25,640 --> 01:42:27,800
Speaker 5: the other, and why I know which one that would be.

1706
01:42:28,240 --> 01:42:30,920
Speaker 5: That's an interesting point. I know which one that would be.

1707
01:42:31,720 --> 01:42:35,920
Speaker 4: And the only way to match that is to have

1708
01:42:36,160 --> 01:42:37,360
Speaker 4: pride on the line.

1709
01:42:37,360 --> 01:42:38,439
Speaker 5: It's not about the money.

1710
01:42:39,200 --> 01:42:40,960
Speaker 4: You could be like, oh the wind, the winners of

1711
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:43,400
Speaker 4: the game will get a million domes that just like

1712
01:42:43,479 --> 01:42:44,400
Speaker 4: the play in tournament.

1713
01:42:44,439 --> 01:42:46,640
Speaker 5: That money is nothing.

1714
01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:54,719
Speaker 4: But the pride of basketball of country. That's what matters

1715
01:42:57,479 --> 01:43:00,680
Speaker 4: in your contemporaries that you're going to some of your

1716
01:43:00,680 --> 01:43:03,920
Speaker 4: teammates and you're gonna have to hear about this.

1717
01:43:04,439 --> 01:43:07,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, but they're all from all the countries.

1718
01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:11,080
Speaker 2: Would they really have that pride? It's basically just America

1719
01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:12,560
Speaker 2: versus not America.

1720
01:43:12,720 --> 01:43:17,280
Speaker 5: Yes, in an American sport in America.

1721
01:43:18,040 --> 01:43:22,400
Speaker 2: Well, I mean maybe Adam Silver is not wrong then,

1722
01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:24,559
Speaker 2: because it is just one day and who gives a rip?

1723
01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:29,680
Speaker 4: So, but you asked me, how can we? Yeah, how

1724
01:43:29,720 --> 01:43:33,200
Speaker 4: can we? How can we match what the w NBA did?

1725
01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:37,040
Speaker 4: Those young those NBA all that they all wanted to

1726
01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:41,040
Speaker 4: be on the Olympic team. They weren't chosen, so they

1727
01:43:41,160 --> 01:43:43,960
Speaker 4: ran through the Olympic team. Well, I just to me,

1728
01:43:44,160 --> 01:43:47,600
Speaker 4: you led by two rookies, you can't be scared to

1729
01:43:47,720 --> 01:43:51,559
Speaker 4: share your platform. That's why Steve de Sager comes in

1730
01:43:51,600 --> 01:43:55,160
Speaker 4: here and hangs out for a while every hour. Share

1731
01:43:55,240 --> 01:43:56,080
Speaker 4: the platform.

1732
01:43:56,280 --> 01:43:57,599
Speaker 5: Yes, thank you for leading us.

1733
01:43:57,680 --> 01:44:00,640
Speaker 9: By the way, guys, I saw a stat that's as

1734
01:44:00,720 --> 01:44:05,479
Speaker 9: far as WNBA TV ratings before this season, the last

1735
01:44:05,560 --> 01:44:09,080
Speaker 9: WNBA game that averaged one million viewers was in two

1736
01:44:09,080 --> 01:44:13,960
Speaker 9: thousand and eight, Candae Parker's career debut. Just this week,

1737
01:44:14,000 --> 01:44:16,920
Speaker 9: we had the cable game on Wednesday with Kitlin Clark's team,

1738
01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:19,479
Speaker 9: The Fever against the Dallas Wings. That was one point

1739
01:44:19,560 --> 01:44:22,639
Speaker 9: seven million, which means here as we hit the Olympic break,

1740
01:44:23,840 --> 01:44:26,720
Speaker 9: sixteen games already this season have had at least a

1741
01:44:26,760 --> 01:44:31,919
Speaker 9: million viewers, the most for a full WNBA season, including finals,

1742
01:44:32,920 --> 01:44:35,960
Speaker 9: and fourteen of those sixteen have been Caitlin Clark games.

1743
01:44:36,080 --> 01:44:40,439
Speaker 5: Gated ladies just saying Tiger, Tiger, Tiger.

1744
01:44:40,920 --> 01:44:43,280
Speaker 8: Yes, absolutely, y'all.

1745
01:44:43,479 --> 01:44:45,759
Speaker 9: Well, we had a long home run from sho Heo Todi,

1746
01:44:45,920 --> 01:44:48,280
Speaker 9: thirtieth home run of his season, and the Dodgers beat

1747
01:44:48,320 --> 01:44:51,559
Speaker 9: Boston tonight nine to six. You know, there's such a

1748
01:44:51,560 --> 01:44:54,120
Speaker 9: thing as stat cast in baseball now, which gives you

1749
01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:56,920
Speaker 9: more detailed stats, such as how many feet did that

1750
01:44:57,000 --> 01:45:01,320
Speaker 9: home run travel? What are the three the hardest ballparks

1751
01:45:01,320 --> 01:45:04,280
Speaker 9: in the majors this past decade? Under statcast? To hit

1752
01:45:04,280 --> 01:45:08,120
Speaker 9: a long home run in the answers San Francisco, San Diego,

1753
01:45:08,520 --> 01:45:11,240
Speaker 9: and Dodger Stadium, all three in California.

1754
01:45:12,080 --> 01:45:13,680
Speaker 8: And yet Shoheo.

1755
01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:17,360
Speaker 9: Tani has already hit six home runs at Dodger Stadium

1756
01:45:17,400 --> 01:45:20,240
Speaker 9: this year, going at least four hundred and forty feet each.

1757
01:45:21,080 --> 01:45:24,719
Speaker 9: The one tonight was four hundred and seventy three feet away.

1758
01:45:25,360 --> 01:45:29,360
Speaker 9: It nearly went over the roof in right field. Dodgers

1759
01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:32,519
Speaker 9: win nine to six. Shortstop Miguil Rojas did leave with

1760
01:45:32,640 --> 01:45:35,240
Speaker 9: four armed tightness, and of course Mookie Bets is already

1761
01:45:35,320 --> 01:45:38,040
Speaker 9: out still with the broken wrists. Seattle is tied for

1762
01:45:38,120 --> 01:45:40,880

1764
01:45:44,400 --> 01:45:47,120
Speaker 9: a sprained ankle after a collision with the outfield wall.

1765
01:45:47,400 --> 01:45:50,800
Speaker 9: Atlanta's second baseman, Ozzie Albi's broke his wrist today could

1766
01:45:50,840 --> 01:45:53,320
Speaker 9: be out two months after a collision at second base.

1767
01:45:53,560 --> 01:45:55,920
Speaker 9: Saint Louis was a winner at Atlanta, six to two

1768
01:45:56,320 --> 01:46:00,160
Speaker 9: victories for the Angels and Giants wins for Washington and Milwauk.

1769
01:46:00,520 --> 01:46:03,280
Speaker 9: Tampa Bay was a six to four winner at the Yankees,

1770
01:46:03,280 --> 01:46:06,080
Speaker 9: despite Aaron Judge hitting his thirty fifth home run of

1771
01:46:06,120 --> 01:46:09,160
Speaker 9: the season. By the Way, Giancarlos Stand with his strain hamstring,

1772
01:46:09,240 --> 01:46:11,240
Speaker 9: could return in about a week. He's missed a month

Speaker 9: so far. Philadelphia was a six to nothing winner at Pittsburgh.

Speaker 9: from San Diego State University.

1804
01:47:53,560 --> 01:47:54,840
Speaker 4: Woo woo uh?

1805
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:56,400
Speaker 5: This is six where everywhere.

1806
01:47:56,760 --> 01:47:59,439
Speaker 9: This is the first year since nineteen eighty two that

1807
01:47:59,600 --> 01:48:03,479
Speaker 9: US golfers claimed all four majors in a year. Scheffler

1808
01:48:03,479 --> 01:48:06,439
Speaker 9: won the Masters, Bryson Deshambeau of the US Open. Shoffley

1809
01:48:06,439 --> 01:48:09,200
Speaker 9: took the other two. Well the winner's check at the

1810
01:48:09,240 --> 01:48:12,200
Speaker 9: Open this weekend. It's now up to three point one

1811
01:48:12,320 --> 01:48:15,799
Speaker 9: million dollars. A tie for second place got one point

1812
01:48:15,840 --> 01:48:19,479
Speaker 9: four to four million. Compare that tie for second place

1813
01:48:19,560 --> 01:48:22,760
Speaker 9: money to third place in Live Golf a couple weeks ago,

1814
01:48:23,479 --> 01:48:26,479
Speaker 9: which got more than one point four four million dollars

1815
01:48:26,520 --> 01:48:28,840
Speaker 9: one point five milli in fact, just for a run

1816
01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:32,240
Speaker 9: of the Mill tournament in Spain, not a major, third

1817
01:48:32,240 --> 01:48:35,080
Speaker 9: place money was more than the tie for second gut

1818
01:48:35,120 --> 01:48:38,920
Speaker 9: in Scotland. Today, Live golf returns next weekend in the UK.

1819
01:48:39,400 --> 01:48:42,439
Speaker 9: At their last event in Spain, the winner got the

1820
01:48:42,560 --> 01:48:46,280
Speaker 9: usual four million dollars plus any team bonuses for the weekend.

1821
01:48:46,760 --> 01:48:49,120
Speaker 9: The British Open has the smallest prize person of the

1822
01:48:49,160 --> 01:48:52,360
Speaker 9: four majors, despite increases the past few years. The last

1823
01:48:52,360 --> 01:48:55,720
Speaker 9: comparison is veteran Padrick Harrington had a good weekend. He

1824
01:48:55,760 --> 01:48:59,080
Speaker 9: finished in a tie for twenty second. Patrick Harrington this

1825
01:48:59,160 --> 01:49:02,439
Speaker 9: weekend earned at the British Open about one hundred and

1826
01:49:02,439 --> 01:49:05,960
Speaker 9: fifty thousand dollars. You could get almost one hundred and

1827
01:49:05,960 --> 01:49:08,559
Speaker 9: fifty thousand dollars and live for a tie for thirty

1828
01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:15,080
Speaker 9: fifth place last weekend because Mito Pereira did take home

1829
01:49:15,200 --> 01:49:18,439
Speaker 9: that check for finishing in a tie for thirty fifth

1830
01:49:19,320 --> 01:49:21,240
Speaker 9: compared to the money that you'd have to tie for

1831
01:49:21,280 --> 01:49:24,520
Speaker 9: twenty second at a major today in Scotland.

1832
01:49:24,680 --> 01:49:27,600
Speaker 5: Back to you, good.

1833
01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:34,920
Speaker 3: Lord, good Yeah, I don't know.

1834
01:49:35,000 --> 01:49:38,400
Speaker 2: We're just doing our little part every Sunday e from

1835
01:49:38,920 --> 01:49:44,320
Speaker 2: to try to break down the vitriol and the anger

1836
01:49:44,439 --> 01:49:48,320
Speaker 2: that so many have expressed at live golf.

1837
01:49:48,560 --> 01:49:51,320
Speaker 9: And did you notice why Tiger Woods did not take

1838
01:49:51,439 --> 01:49:54,559
Speaker 9: the Ryder Cup captaincy. By the way, is he's still

1839
01:49:54,600 --> 01:49:58,360
Speaker 9: in negotiations for this supposed Saudi money that's being combined

1840
01:49:58,800 --> 01:50:00,280
Speaker 9: that's not been hammered out yet.

1841
01:50:00,600 --> 01:50:04,720
Speaker 2: I mean, that thing has got to be one of

1842
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:09,759
Speaker 2: the best sort of mysteries in sports, because right remember

1843
01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:13,000
Speaker 2: when it was like, oh, were never they held it

1844
01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:15,160
Speaker 2: it apart, and then all of a sudden, in the

1845
01:50:15,200 --> 01:50:18,120
Speaker 2: middle of the night, the PGA Tour and Live kind

1846
01:50:18,160 --> 01:50:21,280
Speaker 2: of did this agreement and everyone went, oh, Okay, it's

1847
01:50:21,320 --> 01:50:24,000
Speaker 2: going to be unified for next year, and then that

1848
01:50:24,120 --> 01:50:25,720
Speaker 2: was the last we heard of it, and it just

1849
01:50:25,840 --> 01:50:28,479
Speaker 2: was like, it's just still sitting there and I.

1850
01:50:28,479 --> 01:50:33,320
Speaker 3: Don't even know where that's going. No one does.

1851
01:50:33,560 --> 01:50:35,960
Speaker 9: It's supposed to be like a billion dollars up front,

1852
01:50:36,040 --> 01:50:38,160
Speaker 9: and then yeah, we're still waiting.

1853
01:50:39,400 --> 01:50:42,200
Speaker 2: From your right that no one does because Steve says

1854
01:50:42,240 --> 01:50:42,759
Speaker 2: he doesn't.

1855
01:50:42,960 --> 01:50:45,760
Speaker 5: If Steve doesn't know, then no one knows, then no

1856
01:50:45,800 --> 01:50:46,360
Speaker 5: one knows.

1857
01:50:46,520 --> 01:50:47,160
Speaker 3: No one knows.

1858
01:50:47,280 --> 01:50:50,240
Speaker 2: Tiger's probably tuned in somewhere since he's not playing this week.

1859
01:50:50,280 --> 01:50:52,240
Speaker 2: He's like, I wonder what they're going to say at

1860
01:50:52,680 --> 01:50:55,160
Speaker 2: seven thirty Pacific. That's where I get my golf info.

1861
01:50:55,320 --> 01:50:57,120
Speaker 9: You know, the Rder Cup. It's not like it's coming

1862
01:50:57,200 --> 01:50:59,840
Speaker 9: up really soon. And Tiger Wood says I can't take

1863
01:51:00,320 --> 01:51:03,360
Speaker 9: job because I'm still involved with that.

1864
01:51:03,360 --> 01:51:04,439
Speaker 8: That's how long words.

1865
01:51:04,840 --> 01:51:09,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not it's not getting figured out anytime soon

1866
01:51:10,240 --> 01:51:10,599
Speaker 2: at all.

1867
01:51:10,640 --> 01:51:11,040
Speaker 3: All right.

Speaker 2: teams and I'm gonna save them for next. But in

1874
01:51:33,360 --> 01:51:38,759

1875
01:51:39,600 --> 01:51:46,120
Speaker 2: which team currently has the worst quarterback situation? So I'll

1876
01:51:46,160 --> 01:51:49,559
Speaker 2: ask you that we'll unveil the five teams coming up

1877
01:51:49,600 --> 01:51:55,439
Speaker 2: next on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, my dude, it's been

1878
01:51:55,479 --> 01:51:56,920

Speaker 3: For sure.

1880
01:51:57,880 --> 01:52:00,720
Speaker 2: We're in the tire reg dot com studio. That is

1881
01:52:00,760 --> 01:52:05,920
Speaker 2: he from Salaam. I'm Mark Willard, And if my math

1882
01:52:06,040 --> 01:52:11,880
Speaker 2: is correct, from Scott Hansen who does the Red Zone Channel.

1883
01:52:12,200 --> 01:52:19,599
Speaker 3: Yes, he tweeted out yesterday fifty days till.

1884
01:52:21,000 --> 01:52:26,000
Speaker 2: Football, fifty days till the Red Zone Channel fires it up.

1885
01:52:26,040 --> 01:52:29,439
Speaker 2: So if my math is correct, it is now forty

1886
01:52:29,520 --> 01:52:35,120
Speaker 2: nine days until you football.

1887
01:52:35,720 --> 01:52:42,559
Speaker 4: You know what, I always get anxiety around this time

1888
01:52:42,600 --> 01:52:46,600
Speaker 4: of year. Why is that because guys are starting to

1889
01:52:46,680 --> 01:52:47,920
Speaker 4: head to training camp.

1890
01:52:48,400 --> 01:52:51,120
Speaker 3: M h weak for a lot of teams.

1891
01:52:52,800 --> 01:52:58,880
Speaker 5: I did it for so long that it's still in there.

1892
01:52:59,040 --> 01:53:01,160
Speaker 5: I know what that. I know what.

1893
01:53:01,320 --> 01:53:12,720
Speaker 4: This week leading up to camp feels like it's.

1894
01:53:08,880 --> 01:53:15,080
Speaker 5: A combination of excitement and dread.

1895
01:53:18,240 --> 01:53:22,679
Speaker 4: You just got to remember when I did training camp,

1896
01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:24,920
Speaker 4: it meant something different.

1897
01:53:27,560 --> 01:53:30,760
Speaker 5: I knew my first four years. We were in.

1898
01:53:32,920 --> 01:53:34,920
Speaker 4: My first one, my first year in the league, we

1899
01:53:34,920 --> 01:53:36,639
Speaker 4: were in Swane Drew. I didn't know what to expect.

1900
01:53:36,680 --> 01:53:38,880
Speaker 4: It was just I'm just happy to be there. But

1901
01:53:39,040 --> 01:53:41,960
Speaker 4: after that we went up to Furman University in South

1902
01:53:41,960 --> 01:53:46,720
Speaker 4: Carolina and it was probably an average of a you know,

1903
01:53:46,720 --> 01:53:52,360
Speaker 4: one hundred ninety eight humidity, like it was not pleasant.

1904
01:53:52,680 --> 01:53:57,400
Speaker 4: And we stayed in division I don't even what division

1905
01:53:57,479 --> 01:54:03,000
Speaker 4: is Furman Division two dorm right right the just imagine

1906
01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:08,200
Speaker 4: what that is Division two dorms. And it was six

1907
01:54:08,240 --> 01:54:12,040
Speaker 4: weeks of two days. It was aggressive. It was a

1908
01:54:12,080 --> 01:54:15,880
Speaker 4: lot and look receivers and quarterbacks and DB's and they

1909
01:54:15,960 --> 01:54:18,680
Speaker 4: having a good old time out there running routes. You know,

1910
01:54:18,800 --> 01:54:21,320
Speaker 4: nobody's really tackling you. I mean, you get a couple

1911
01:54:21,360 --> 01:54:25,320
Speaker 4: of live periods. But for offensive defensive linemen, linebackers, running backs,

1912
01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:32,800
Speaker 4: it's we're hitting, yeah, all day, one on one's all

1913
01:54:32,840 --> 01:54:35,840
Speaker 4: that in the competition aspects, that's the exciting part. You

1914
01:54:35,880 --> 01:54:38,120
Speaker 4: get to compete in and you're excited to be back

1915
01:54:38,120 --> 01:54:41,120
Speaker 4: and getting ready. The biggest excitement is the big check

1916
01:54:41,160 --> 01:54:42,840
Speaker 4: star coming. You got six weeks and then you start

1917
01:54:42,840 --> 01:54:47,560
Speaker 4: really getting paid. It's that little eleven hundred dollars and

1918
01:54:47,600 --> 01:54:50,440
Speaker 4: twelve hundred dollars stipend a week for training camp that

1919
01:54:50,480 --> 01:54:54,960
Speaker 4: don't really you know, but it would. I just knew,

1920
01:54:55,360 --> 01:54:57,680
Speaker 4: Oh my god, and one week my head is going

1921
01:54:57,760 --> 01:55:01,040
Speaker 4: to be on fire because the helmet. What I started

1922
01:55:01,040 --> 01:55:04,720
Speaker 4: doing later in my career was when I start, as

1923
01:55:04,720 --> 01:55:07,400
Speaker 4: I was running and working out getting in shape ready

1924
01:55:07,400 --> 01:55:10,920
Speaker 4: for training camp, I start wearing my helmet doing it.

1925
01:55:12,800 --> 01:55:16,200
Speaker 4: I start wearing my helmet as I was running and conditioning,

1926
01:55:18,040 --> 01:55:20,520
Speaker 4: you know, starting in June when we got home from

1927
01:55:20,720 --> 01:55:22,680
Speaker 4: you know, mini camps in OT eight, I will wear

1928
01:55:22,720 --> 01:55:27,800
Speaker 4: my helmet because to break it in, because it's one

1929
01:55:27,840 --> 01:55:30,720
Speaker 4: of the toughest things that after that first week of

1930
01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:37,200
Speaker 4: two a days, your forehead is so tender being in

1931
01:55:37,240 --> 01:55:39,600
Speaker 4: the helmet so much and having the contact so much.

1932
01:55:39,840 --> 01:55:44,320
Speaker 4: I mean it's literally like to the touch, literally to

1933
01:55:44,440 --> 01:55:47,919
Speaker 4: the touch, like if you just graze across your forehead,

1934
01:55:47,960 --> 01:55:52,120
Speaker 4: it's excruciating pain. Like, so those types of things, and

1935
01:55:52,200 --> 01:55:55,320
Speaker 4: knowing what that's going to feel, like, how hot it

1936
01:55:55,400 --> 01:55:58,520
Speaker 4: is going to be outside, how just you know, the

1937
01:55:58,560 --> 01:56:01,280
Speaker 4: fights that you're gonna get into with training camp, which

1938
01:56:01,320 --> 01:56:05,440
Speaker 4: happened because you're so tired of going against your own team,

1939
01:56:05,640 --> 01:56:09,040
Speaker 4: and guys and rookies are coming in trying to make

1940
01:56:09,080 --> 01:56:12,960
Speaker 4: the It's just a lot. So it starts to build,

1941
01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:15,080
Speaker 4: it starts to turn. At the time, I didn't know

1942
01:56:15,160 --> 01:56:19,200
Speaker 4: this was anxiety, but it turns into anxiety. And I

1943
01:56:19,400 --> 01:56:22,120
Speaker 4: still as soon as I hear somebody say, and this

1944
01:56:22,160 --> 01:56:25,000
Speaker 4: week so and so on reports to you know, Houston

1945
01:56:25,040 --> 01:56:26,880
Speaker 4: and the Bears have already reported again, I'm just like,

1946
01:56:26,920 --> 01:56:29,200
Speaker 4: oh my god, hall of Fame.

1947
01:56:29,360 --> 01:56:31,160
Speaker 3: Here we go. Hall of Fame game.

1948
01:56:31,320 --> 01:56:35,440
Speaker 5: It just comes back and waves and.

1949
01:56:35,360 --> 01:56:39,480
Speaker 2: I'm just like, oh, it's like it's like mental muscle memory.

1950
01:56:39,720 --> 01:56:41,520
Speaker 5: Yes, it is on you.

1951
01:56:42,120 --> 01:56:42,760
Speaker 3: That's wild.

1952
01:56:43,000 --> 01:56:46,320
Speaker 4: It's it is part of who you are. You do

1953
01:56:46,400 --> 01:56:50,080
Speaker 4: it for so long. I remember my twelfth year, eleven

1954
01:56:50,520 --> 01:56:53,880
Speaker 4: thirteenth year, my last year, and I was just at

1955
01:56:53,920 --> 01:56:55,960
Speaker 4: practice and I was looking through my face mask and

1956
01:56:56,000 --> 01:56:57,640
Speaker 4: I was looking up at the summer, I mean at

1957
01:56:57,960 --> 01:57:04,160
Speaker 4: the sky, and I was like, oh my god, I

1958
01:57:04,200 --> 01:57:06,560
Speaker 4: don't even see the face mask anymore.

1959
01:57:09,960 --> 01:57:10,640
Speaker 5: Think about that.

1960
01:57:11,560 --> 01:57:14,200
Speaker 4: It's like people who wear glasses for so long forget

1961
01:57:14,240 --> 01:57:21,200
Speaker 4: they're wearing glasses. I have a Outlneman face mask on,

1962
01:57:23,240 --> 01:57:25,720
Speaker 4: and it didn't seem like I was looking through anything.

1963
01:57:27,880 --> 01:57:33,320
Speaker 4: I was like, oh my gosh, wow, like you don't

1964
01:57:33,360 --> 01:57:34,400
Speaker 4: even know it anymore.

1965
01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:35,680
Speaker 5: So here I am.

1966
01:57:35,720 --> 01:57:38,760
Speaker 4: And then I just started looking at the world through bars,

1967
01:57:39,880 --> 01:57:44,480
Speaker 4: Like literally, I got a face mask on and I'm

1968
01:57:44,520 --> 01:57:47,560
Speaker 4: just looking at it, and it just it really just

1969
01:57:47,680 --> 01:57:49,960
Speaker 4: I was just like, wow, I didn't I don't even

1970
01:57:50,120 --> 01:57:54,040
Speaker 4: know when I stopped noticing me looking through this face mask,

1971
01:57:56,000 --> 01:57:59,440
Speaker 4: because it had been screeping going for so long. At

1972
01:57:59,440 --> 01:58:01,880
Speaker 4: that point, I have been playing football for you know,

1973
01:58:03,680 --> 01:58:04,839
Speaker 4: twenty plus years.

1974
01:58:05,280 --> 01:58:06,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean.

1975
01:58:08,160 --> 01:58:11,920
Speaker 2: Reason number one hundred eighty two why I didn't play.

1976
01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:13,880
Speaker 2: I mean, we'll start with the like I'm not big

1977
01:58:13,960 --> 01:58:15,560
Speaker 2: enough for good enough for any of those things.

1978
01:58:15,600 --> 01:58:17,800
Speaker 3: Those are reasons number one, two, three, four five. But

1979
01:58:18,720 --> 01:58:20,600
Speaker 3: I don't even know if I had the mentals for it.

1980
01:58:22,080 --> 01:58:25,120
Speaker 2: Hey, before we go want to ask you this, which

1981
01:58:25,160 --> 01:58:30,880
Speaker 2: team has the worst quarterback situation? My multiple choice five

1982
01:58:31,120 --> 01:58:38,160
Speaker 2: are Raiders, Commanders, Brown's, Cardinals.

1983
01:58:38,240 --> 01:58:47,600
Speaker 4: Giants, the Giants. Why you answer that way because Daniel

1984
01:58:47,680 --> 01:58:53,160
Speaker 4: Jones wasn't the leader of the team. The expectations are

1985
01:58:53,200 --> 01:58:58,160
Speaker 4: extremely high in New York and the leader of the

1986
01:58:58,200 --> 01:59:04,200
Speaker 4: team is now playing for your rival. So their quarterback

1987
01:59:04,240 --> 01:59:09,200
Speaker 4: situation is is a rap? This is lose lose.

1988
01:59:11,600 --> 01:59:13,720
Speaker 5: Is and you and you don't have you don't have

1989
01:59:13,760 --> 01:59:16,680
Speaker 5: a star receiver or like what.

1990
01:59:16,640 --> 01:59:18,000
Speaker 3: Do you have? Yeah?

1991
01:59:18,120 --> 01:59:20,240
Speaker 2: I mean, is there not some overlap with the Giants

1992
01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:22,720
Speaker 2: and the Browns? Basically the idea is you paid.

1993
01:59:22,440 --> 01:59:25,200
Speaker 4: Someone, but now you don't know because he can't like

1994
01:59:25,240 --> 01:59:27,200
Speaker 4: it if he does come to get back to form

1995
01:59:27,320 --> 01:59:30,600
Speaker 4: like he can play like he can Jane Jones can't play.

1996
01:59:31,200 --> 01:59:34,840
Speaker 4: There's a difference. But he can't do it. We know

1997
01:59:34,920 --> 01:59:37,280
Speaker 4: he can't do it. They know he can't. They gave

1998
01:59:37,360 --> 01:59:39,600
Speaker 4: him the money. They stuck with him, forty five million

1999
01:59:39,600 --> 01:59:40,520
Speaker 4: dollars a year to do.

2000
01:59:40,600 --> 01:59:43,600
Speaker 3: What to do?

2001
01:59:43,680 --> 01:59:43,760
Speaker 4: What?

2002
01:59:44,480 --> 01:59:45,480
Speaker 3: Yeah?

2003
01:59:45,520 --> 01:59:49,480
