Uh, looks like he's heading 57 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: elsewhere in We are also going to go through uh 58 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: some reports around the league, UH with our good good 59 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: uh colleague rap sheet rumors round up the rap sheet 60 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: rumors roundup like that. We are also going to debut 61 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: a news segment forgiveness. Forgiveness. Okay, let's fight through with 62 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: the little stay. Um. Forgiveness don't mean the Don Henley banger. 63 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: I love that song though, remember that one? Oh yeah, 64 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: well youve this if you don't love me here did you? 65 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: Were you aware of that song? Greg? No, like most 66 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: of our most of our listeners, that's dated. That's two dates. 67 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: I think that might have been a really ill conceived 68 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: homecoming theme song one of my high school years. Really yeah, 69 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: because it was like one of those years were literally 70 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: no one basically went some council of student council people 71 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 1: decide the song, and no one was happy with their dates, 72 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 1: so we picked a really cynical old song. More evidence, 73 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 1: Gregg that you were born an age thirty two by 74 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: the way, you were like in junior. Like, if that 75 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: means more you've massed your entire childhood based on something 76 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: that you don't want to bring up as an adult. 77 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: I mean, if if that means that I missed that 78 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 1: on the Don Henley catalog, I'm fine. Greg's like our 79 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: Dick Whitman, this whole past as a mystery. Uh. Yes, 80 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: So we will talk about forgiveness. Who do we forgive? 81 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 1: As we Uh? They look forward to a new season, 82 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: and we promised it on Wednesday, we'll hit the mail bag. 83 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: So a lot to get to really exciting before we 84 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: do the news. Uh. Lindsay Fulton, our producer behind the 85 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 1: Glass before Thursday show, had told us that she had, um, 86 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: I don't want to say absent mindedly, but an ex 87 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: boyfriend had invested in bitcoin once upon the time, and 88 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: she told us the way was being explained to us, gentlemen, 89 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: and tell me if I'm off here. Um. Lindsay seemed 90 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: to be thinking it was a coin flip Weather cashing 91 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: in on that bitcoin was gonna make her a millionaire. 92 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: She said that you would probably know by today's show. 93 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: She said she is likely a millionaire. Likely, she said, 94 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: likely she is a millionaire because of the bitcoin that 95 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: she bought ten years ago. All right, so let's not 96 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: throw up behind the glass, Lindsay, are you a millionaire? 97 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: I haven't checked yet find the bitcoin? How is that 98 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 1: on the back burner? First of all, I bought the bitcoin, 99 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: not my ex boyfriend. I bought it, so it's mine. 100 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: Second of all, like I said, it was being used, 101 00:05:55,240 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: He suggested I purchased it for my ex boyfriend suggested 102 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: I purchased the bitcoins for shady internet activity. I think 103 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: you know things that aren't legal in Ohio that are 104 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: legal in California. Okay, so I made like a fake 105 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: email address to buy just so it couldn't get traced 106 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: back to me. And I need to like dig deep 107 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: into where which one of those JUNO or a O 108 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: L email addresses. It's gonna how how are you not 109 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: doing that the second you leave work or during work? 110 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: I wouldn't do anything, she said she I wouldn't eat 111 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: because she's already said she's likely a millionaire, so there's 112 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: no real like rush right now. She's gonna just I 113 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: just have to find it. But to Greg's point, the 114 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: lack of motivation around uncovering this large Jess is I 115 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: find it's a bit puzzling. I would be all over it. 116 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: I have to sit down and really look for it. Yeah, 117 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: well what did you do last night? Actually? I went home. 118 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: I went home and I went to sleep. I was 119 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: working working hard. I went home and I went to sleep. 120 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: I think this bodes well that her, as Mark said, 121 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: her new found large Jess is not going to change her. 122 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: And remember, lindsay, when if it does in into a 123 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: major seven to eight figure um pay out, that we 124 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: were all supportive of you and uh and we love 125 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 1: having you as a producer and uh and honest talk 126 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: here if you do, let's clear, five million, are you 127 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: done as our producer? That's not enough to like not 128 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: work on again? Of course it is. What are you 129 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: talking about? Court? It is I would be gone in 130 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: one second if I had five I would not ever 131 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: walk through the door like Mark would begone if you 132 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: give them five thousand. Yeah, let's what's the number you 133 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: can live off of the number of a five dollar 134 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: bank account for quite a little over under one million 135 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: dollars that you would be gone one million, I would. 136 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: I would set my own terms and say I work 137 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: from home essentially. I occasionally call in for like a 138 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: two minute segment on the pod maybe, and I'll file 139 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: something when I feel like it. If anything above a million, 140 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: nothing that look for work that you know you like 141 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: more than working the rest of us. I have a 142 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: I have frivolous spending habits, you know, I like to exactly, 143 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: so I'd be a little bit worried that it wouldn't last. 144 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: You could buy a the local can't the Yankee candle 145 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: in the mall of America and run that store. That 146 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: could be your job. That was a pretty good store, 147 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: and did stop there I had to pay extra to 148 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: to bring some of the candles back here. I think 149 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: candles just tallow and in a wick. That's a for 150 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: the candle for the Yankee Candle Podcast. All right, let's 151 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: do some news. Good luck, Lindsay, Hey, New York City. 152 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: I'm here, I got the Yankees hat on.

Start with the big big trade 171 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: or the trade that's soon to be. Where are we 172 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: at on this it's it's it's pretty much a done. 173 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 1: Deals rap Sheet reported that the Kansas City Chiefs have 174 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: finally finalized a trade agreement Friday to ship cornerback Marcus 175 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: Peter to the Marcus Peters to the rams Uh. ESPN 176 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: first reported the deal. We don't have the terms of 177 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: the deal as of yet. The rams Uh do not 178 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,719 Speaker 1: own second round pick UH. They sent that way to 179 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: get Sammy Watkins, but they are going to now have 180 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: UH Marcus Peters and Greg will start with you on 181 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: this one, the rams Uh. This feels like a great 182 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: trade and we don't know what they're what they're descending back, 183 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: but for a team that seems very close Los Angeles 184 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: to now get uh upper to your cornerback seems like 185 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: a major win win for them. It's a It's a 186 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: tough one to evaluate the value, especially from the chief side, 187 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: So we'll just have to wait and see on that 188 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: but from the RAMS side, it's such a great marriage 189 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: of player in scheme. You know, some coaches have a 190 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: quarterback friendly or quarterback proof offense. Wade Phillips has a 191 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: cornerback friendly defense. When I did that feature on him 192 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: last year, all the defensive backs talked about that this 193 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: is a defensive back friendly scheme because the ball gets 194 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: out of the quarterback's hands so quickly that leads to 195 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: big time interception totals. It really favors cornerbacks who can 196 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: play man to man defense and who have ball skills. Uh. 197 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: And that's Marcus Peters in a nutshell. No one has 198 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: better ball skills, no one has better instincts in terms 199 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: of going after the ball uh than Marcus Peters. And 200 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: I think he's not gonna have to cover as long 201 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles as he did in Kansas City. And 202 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: I just think he can become a dominant player. And 203 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: it's at a cheap price. I mean, they are paying 204 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: him very little for the two thousand eighteen season, and 205 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: they have his rights for the two thousand nineteen season 206 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: at the fifth year option level, which is another bargain. 207 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 1: So to me, it's a very safe pick up in 208 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: terms of improving their team for the next two years 209 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: one point eight million he's scheduled to earn. Over the 210 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 1: last three years, no cornerback has a lower opposer passer 211 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 1: rating on throws in his direction than Marcus Peters. He 212 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: also has seven more interceptions than any other cornerback over 213 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 1: those three years, and all of that tells me that 214 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: somebody very high up in the Chiefs organization did not 215 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: want to make a decision on his fifth year option 216 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: by may or extend him for big money. I I 217 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: love this by the Rams because it's another example of 218 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: less sneed, who I think a couple of years ago 219 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: on this podcast has another places you kind of wondering 220 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: what the less need experience was going to bring to 221 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: the Rams. Ultimately, aggressive they're gonna lose Treumaine Johnson and 222 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: Cavon Webster is coming off in Achilles tear. So you 223 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 1: needed to address this position, and they've done it within 224 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: the best possible way. I want to know what they've 225 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: given up, though, because it has to be what they've 226 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: given up, because they the Chiefs initially wanted Robert Quinn 227 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: as part of the deal that's not happening. But to 228 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: find out that the forty Niners and Browns also pursued him. 229 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: Pursued this player that the forty Niners and Browns have 230 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: way more if it's a third rounder compared to a 231 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: third rounder from the Chiefs. It's higher in every single category. 232 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: The Browns could have given up way more than you 233 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: think the Rams would have. So I'm wondering what this package. 234 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 1: It's probably pretty aggressive, it must be, to your point, 235 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: and it might include a first round pick, not this year, 236 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: but maybe maybe next year or something like that, or 237 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: or future picks. There are maturity issues of course. If 238 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: you remember back at the meadow Lands earlier last season. 239 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: Are in the middle of last season when he um 240 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: threw a LTI flag into the crowd, left the state, 241 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: left the field, was not ejected, an embarrassing scene. But 242 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: then after that he got suspended a game, which was 243 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 1: a big deal because at that point the Chiefs were 244 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: in tatters, their season seemed like it was going down. 245 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: They still suspended because that's so that tells you how, 246 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,719 Speaker 1: you know, pissed they were at him. Then he came 247 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: back and played at an all pro level the rest 248 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 1: of the season. So it seems like maybe what we 249 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: saw against the Jets and that game, they probably have 250 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: been annoyed by him or have been had their patients 251 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: tested one too many times and they decided to move on. 252 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: If you're the Rams and you say to the Chiefs, 253 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: I really want to steal that happen, give us an 254 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: give me an honest take, if I'm less need on 255 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: what this player's issues are in the locker room, why 256 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: you'd want to give up this player? Do you get 257 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: any sort of an honest answer from the Chiefs? I 258 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: would say absolutely not. There's well, there's no way, there's 259 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 1: no way to really know what he's like. But I 260 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: think to West's point earlier, I think the Chiefs had 261 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,040 Speaker 1: made a decision. They were never gonna make him the 262 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: highest paid cornerback in the league or close to it, 263 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: which is what a long term deal eventually would have 264 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: cost for him. And you have to believe it's because 265 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 1: of his behind the scenes issues, not his play, which 266 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: has sometimes been a little streaky but overall has obviously 267 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: been excellent. Well, one of my hast thought on this 268 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: before the start of the league year, the Chiefs have 269 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: traded their most valuable offensive and defensive players. The A 270 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: F C. West is wide open and this looks like 271 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: it looks like a rebuilding team to me. Pete Peters 272 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: and we should mention was left out in the cold 273 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: by his college team. Washington wanted nothing to do with him. 274 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: It's the only reason even felt to number eighteen. Kind 275 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: of like a Dez Bryant situation where he probably would 276 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 1: have been a top five pick in terms of his talent. 277 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: So that that's now a couple of different teams that 278 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: have given up on him. But I love that the 279 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: Rams are just going for it. The Rams, the Rams. 280 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: Let's make him the team of a t L again 281 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: in two thousand eighteen. Uh, that was that's unprecedented, But 282 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: we can talk about it plenty of time. Let's move 283 00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: on a team in the a f C that a 284 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: of stability is the Jacksonville Jaguars, who of course made 285 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: it all the way to the a f C title game, 286 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: uh last season in the first year together for Doug 287 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: Moron and UM head coach Doug Maron, executive vice president 288 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: Tom Coughlin, and general manager Dave Caldwell. Nice start to that. Uh, 289 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: what do you what do they call it? Not a trifecta, 290 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: a triumbriant, triumvirant, trium britt or triad, whatever it is, 291 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: a trio. I'm just gonna go with those battling nail 292 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: Let's just go trip anyway, the Jags had it out 293 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 1: contract extensions to all three men uh deals that run 294 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: through one uh. So mark the Jags obviously like the 295 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: direction the organization's going and stability is always good. I 296 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: mean these extensions. If everything suddenly uh went south very quickly, 297 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: it's on the owner to pay it. It's not on 298 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: the cap, So extend all you want. But I think 299 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: it's a it's a sign that the Jaguars are saying, 300 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: if you're if you're Tom Coughlin and Doug Maron. It's 301 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: a nod to David Caldwell, who rafted well. I think 302 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: that Gus Bradley did very little with the players that 303 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: he brought on. But the trio of them feel poised 304 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: to go the distance together and it and it should 305 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: snuff out if there were any remaining there were when 306 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: this first, when they first hired Tom Coughlin. Oh, could 307 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: Coughlin at some point get the itch and like replace 308 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: Maron and become the coach. Well that was nonsense very 309 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: shortly into that journey. But at this point. I think 310 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: they're sit They're set to sit down and say, our 311 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: super Bowl window is open. We've got to address the 312 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: quarterback position. But if we do that, who knows. You 313 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: got five years together, and this was a contract I 314 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: think given because unlike most coaches, Maron kind of signed 315 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: a prove it deal as a coach. Just he only 316 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: had a couple of years on his initial contract, less 317 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: than you normally see because he had risen up from 318 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: the interim. It's like it was kind of a prove 319 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: it contract as coaches go. And I'm sure his agent, 320 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: you know, wanted that to be fixed. Now that they 321 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: made the playoffs and you line up all three guys 322 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 1: and a lot of the Caldwell decisions that he made 323 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: helped set up this run that they had on defense. 324 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: The free agency moves some weren't great, but for the 325 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: most part, they did a pretty good job adding players 326 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: two thousand fifteen. Two thousand and sixteen took Kauflin and 327 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: Maron one year to go from a streak of the 328 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: worst record in the NFL to the doorstep of the 329 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. One player that won't be involved going forward, 330 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: by the way, is Chris Ivory. The team cut ties 331 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:22,880 Speaker 1: with the running back you signed a big free agent 332 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: deal a couple of years ago. Every figures to find work, 333 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: but he won't find the same contract. Where is he 334 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: gonna fall in the top one and one free agent? 335 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: Is that the scientists are cooking up? Oh you should 336 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: have seen it Mark downstairs. The scientists saying things that 337 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 1: they couldn't taken back. Uh, fighting over of people like 338 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: Frank Gore? Oh, or does a J. Mccaren go just 339 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: hissing at each other? And I think, while it's distressing 340 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: to say, you understand it's coming from a place of passion. Absolutely, 341 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: it'st This couldn't be more exaggerated or misunderstood. But I 342 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 1: get that because Dan, you know Dan, not man that's 343 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 1: used to conflict just normally. It's not comfortable with it. 344 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: And so he sees two men just having a discussion 345 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: and he doesn't know what to do. Okay, Well that 346 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: felt like a slight projection by Crag. Yeah, I don't 347 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: even know what that was really bad. We can maybe 348 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: dig into that after the show in a private conversation. 349 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: If you're looking for some real conflict, I'll be the 350 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: park lots what I'm saying. We'll talk it out man. 351 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 1: The man or parking lot is is thick with NFL security, 352 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: and maybe take it down to Alonda Drive or maybe 353 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: the cozy. In a fight in the cozy sounds fun. 354 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: They would welcome that, like they've never seen a fight before. 355 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: What were we talking about? Oh so Chris, where's Chris 356 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: Ivory fall? Probably outside the one I won. Maybe he'll 357 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: bump Frank Gore out. Yeah, probably towards the end. Yeah, 358 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: I would. My initial instinct would be not on it 359 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: at all, But then I realized we do have Doug 360 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: Martin and Gore there on there, So I've reased in 361 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: that mix. All right, Now it's time to move on 362 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: to Oh yeah, there's so much news to dig through, 363 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: So let's take a spin around with our rap sheet rumors. 364 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: Round up like a round up, like a cowboy thing. Yeah, 365 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 1: get along, rap sheet rumors, round up, good pivot. All right, 366 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: this is all reports coming from Ian Rappaport or NFL 367 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: Media Insider. Will start with Sammy Watkins. A free agent. 368 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: Rap sheet reported that the Niners, Bears, and Browns all 369 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: teams to watch on Sammy Watkins. Well. This was prompted 370 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: by the report that LaMarcus Joyner will likely draw the 371 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: Rams franchise tag, allowing Sammy Watkins to reach the open market, 372 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: and once he gets their rap sheets said, look at 373 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: the teams that have wide receiver needs forty Niners and 374 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 1: bears Brown's. I've heard them connected to Trail prior Reunion 375 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: again and addition to other things too. But Brown's got 376 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: to spend this money somewhere. Niners feel like they're in 377 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: on everybody. Yeah, I think that's absolutely right. And I 378 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: think if LaMarcus Joiner had been available, if they had 379 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: gone that way and let him go to market. We 380 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: don't know for sure, We're not sure, but that's what 381 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: I think the Niners and Browns would be after him too. 382 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 1: I like that move keeping LaMarcus joyner sneaky cut candidates 383 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins. It does point out that these risky less 384 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: need trades, you know, they don't all work. They gave 385 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: up a second round pick for five yards of Sammy 386 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 1: Watkins trade, they would flat out cut him. I think 387 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: I think that's the possibility because just just watch it. 388 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: Monitor it. Look at Mark, You're talking to some Sparrows. 389 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: It's NFL media insider in his face. I don't think 390 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 1: an I don't think you want to. I don't. I don't. 391 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a beloved character behind the scene. 392 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: You know, this is the rap sheet rumors, round up, 393 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: the Sessler rumors round up. We could do that too, 394 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: right after he's got roughly one point five million followers. 395 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: I think he's got more traction in this. The Titans, 396 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: the Bears, the Panthers, and the Saints teams to teams 397 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 1: to watch on Jarvis Landry, who of course was fran 398 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: chies by the Dolphins this week. And but that doesn't 399 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: mean he's gonna stay with the Dolphins. Could be traded 400 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: all four of those teams? Uh, Greg, which one of 401 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 1: those teams would you like most to see Landry making 402 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: plays with? You know, about like three yards from the 403 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage next year? The Saints really stood out there. 404 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: I'm surprised by that unless they're just in this sort 405 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 1: of all in while Drew Brees is here, let's try 406 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 1: to win the Super Why would it there? And maybe 407 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: maybe that makes sense. I think rap sheet was just 408 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: dot connecting to where he played college ball. You're putting 409 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: this hardcore just like random speculation by the insider. I 410 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: think Ian here's things did inform his speculation, but I 411 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: think that seemed more like you say, is that what 412 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: you're saying was rap sheet actually specifically said played his 413 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,199 Speaker 1: college ball at L s U. It seemed more of 414 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: a Chicago phetograph. Chicago would be interesting. I think they're 415 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: going to spend some money. He would certainly help out 416 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 1: Mitchell Trobiski. I would want the Panthers have the lowest 417 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: amount of cap from of any of those teams. They 418 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: need to make some moves, but there's whispers that they 419 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: want to overhaul their entire wide receiver department. My Titans 420 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: prediction got deep sixed. We had a video hit and 421 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: then moments later they franchise tag On Landry and deep 422 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: sicked my Landry to Nashville and specul that it was 423 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: a bang. Or the Steelers will listen to Mortavis Bryant 424 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: trade offers. This does not feel surprising at all. Brian 425 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 1: has been suspended for an entire year. Off the field. 426 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: Issues seemed to be I don't like to use I 427 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: don't like to throw mal content around. It seems like 428 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: I have an ugly word. Some people that organization might 429 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: label him as such. Well, he wasn't happy. He literally 430 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 1: was a mal content. Just it's kind of a harsh word. 431 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 1: I mean the the Peters trade. Uh, we've been talking 432 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: about the trade tsunami this week, and the Peters trade 433 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 1: was the first water lapping up along the shore people. 434 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: But people better run the tsunami is coming. I mean 435 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick listened to the Niners asked about Tom Brady. 436 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: So I think, yes, it's possible this dealers, who spent 437 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: much of the season trying to get rid of Martavis Bryant, 438 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: would listen to trade offers. I don't know if that's 439 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: a massive leap in logic. House of the rap Sheet 440 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: rumors round up going so far, I like it feels, 441 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: it feels okay. It was like a scene undermined by marks. 442 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: That particular bullet point could use some helps mark rap Sheet, Yeah, 443 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: don't try to cook that up. We're gonna get rap 444 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,360 Speaker 1: Sheet on the show in Indianapolis for another rumors round 445 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: up and we'll straighten everything out. Seahawks more likely to 446 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 1: work out a new deal for Earl Thomas, so, uh, 447 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: you know, maybe slow down. I I already announced months 448 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: ago the Legion of Boom was dead, but now it's 449 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: starting to feel possible that at least Earl Thomas and 450 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: Richard Sherman maybe we'll be back. Does that mean the 451 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: legion of Boom is alive? I don't think so necessarily. 452 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: They were always they still there. They were always the 453 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: two most important. I would say, yeah, he just do 454 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: eight point five million Earl Thomas. They are bottom eating 455 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 1: cap rooms. So it feels like one of these ones 456 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: where you can create some room and give him an 457 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: extra year or two. That maybe means nothing when you 458 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 1: boiled it, boil it down. I think if a team 459 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: really like the Cowboys, wanted to give up a nice 460 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 1: fancy pick for him, they would listen. And that's what 461 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 1: rap Sheet said, that if you're willing to overpay for 462 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 1: Earl Thomas, then it could get done. Richard Sherman's not 463 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 1: going anywhere anytime scene because he's still recovering from an 464 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: achilles injury. Uh opening the kimono. West came up with 465 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: the name of this segment and and really the guts 466 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 1: of it, naving it the rap sheet rumors round up 467 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 1: off his reporting. Let's take it to that just a 468 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: little bit for a second, a shot at our own insider. Well, 469 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: I think it's more rumors season than reporting season when 470 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: it comes to trade interesting want to talk to you 471 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: about that as well. Why why is the right side 472 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: of this table greg and Dan constantly trying to generate 473 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: false heat between Mark West and rap Sheet. We we 474 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: are we are trying to question. We are getting his 475 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 1: inf We spend all day long getting his information out 476 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: on NFL dot com. The aver Broncos don't want a 477 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: trade Emmanuel Sanders. That makes sense. A nice little player 478 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,880 Speaker 1: play ball ten million dollars against the cap this year, 479 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: had some off the field issues, had some drops issues 480 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: last year, turning thirty years old. But rap Sheet says, 481 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: and this is a good point. If the Broncos want 482 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: to bring in a corner a quarterback, don't you need 483 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 1: somebody to catch the ball. They have very little proven 484 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:25,199 Speaker 1: depth behind Sanders and kissing old rap Sheets. Cowboy boots 485 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 1: to West's point, Bennie Fowler, Jordan Leslie, Tim Patrick River, 486 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 1: Craig Craft, Harlos Henderson, Isaiah mckns, and Marius Thomas. That 487 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: is your wide receiver group, So Manuel Sanders, maybe keep 488 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: him around. Remember Craig Craft sounds like a Saturday afternoon 489 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,639 Speaker 1: activity Orleans to copy and paste job. Jordan Leslie is 490 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: not a real person, is he? Craig Craft is a person. 491 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: These are all that, this is their depth chart, this 492 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: is this is really them. Carlos Henderson, who they drafted 493 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 1: the third round. He didn't mention him, but yeah, these 494 00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: are real people. Carlos Henderson was the second third to 495 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 1: last person I mentioned Bills are not planning to cut 496 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor uh in my weekly Good Week, Bad Week 497 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 1: column on NFL dot com. I I take issue with this. 498 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: It's like, after year, think of this as a marriage 499 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: between two lovers, and for years now the Bills have 500 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: been emotionally just the emotional neglect upon Tyrod Taylor, who's 501 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: a perfectly perfectly yeah stepping out basically rubbing, rubbing his 502 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: face in their infidelity. And now instead of just setting 503 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: him free and letting him find true love on his own, 504 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: they are talking about the idea or we're being it's 505 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: being insinuated now that they're going to trade him, which 506 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: is an arranged marriage. So now you're gonna potentially force 507 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: him into a negative situation or a situation where he's 508 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,880 Speaker 1: back to being a backup behind some jamoke like Joe 509 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: Flacco again and it's just like a bad karma on you, 510 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: bad relation karma on you, relationship karma on you. But 511 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: I have a theory. They can't chase after anyone like 512 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. They have needs all over the place despite 513 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: making the playoffs. But how do you get an inexpensive quarterback? 514 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 1: They have two first in two seconds. They are a 515 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: candidate to trade up and get one of these top 516 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: four quarterbacks. In my mind, yeah, and this is just 517 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 1: an advertisement. Please give us a pick for Tyrode? Is 518 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: anyone interested in him? Because no one buys that he's 519 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: gonna be on their team next year? And he doesn't 520 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: control something because he's due eighteen million dollars next year, 521 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 1: so he's not getting traded to be a backup anywhere. 522 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: He only a team that would really really want to 523 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: take on that salary would would go for it. Dan, 524 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: how do you keep the one you love? Treat him right? 525 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 1: You don't? We love is non possessive, pop ended. Wow, 526 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: I love it though, I mean you're right if you yeah, 527 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: if you love someone you need no desire to keep? 528 00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: What is it? What do they say? If you love someone, 529 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: set them free? If they come back to you they're yours. 530 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: That reminds me that since we're talking about Don Henley 531 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,440 Speaker 1: adult contemporary rock, remember that Sting solo song if you 532 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: Love Somebody has set them for absolutely you know that 533 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: one Greg Henley pod Sting who lit up the super 534 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: Bowl pregame show. I don't have lit ups the right word. 535 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 1: The shaggy came out, shaggy out together. Yeah. I didn't 536 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: realize that they are very close friends. It's an unusual 537 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: parent like like Don Henley, a big hit with like 538 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: mid fifties bankers Sting. Sting has roots and scam music, 539 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: which is similar to reggae. Ah, there you go. Greg 540 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 1: hates all people older than him, even if they're six 541 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: or seven months older than you can standing well, No, Greg, 542 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: who wants everyone to know this is like back in 543 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: his Delaware days with his purple hair and mumbling into 544 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: the mic. You're just still counterculture, man. I don't think 545 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: it's counterculture that not base the music design for the man. 546 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: It's like dead Milkman mixtape falling out of his back pocket. 547 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: Henley and staying our counter culture at this point, and 548 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: you know that the the the culture has passed them by. 549 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: Finally a little extra bonus rumors round up this one 550 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: for a little Tom Pellicero Pop, Little Pellicero Pop. Sam 551 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: Bradford depending free agent. He's made over a D fourteen 552 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: million dollars in his career, he doesn't need to work, 553 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 1: but Pellicero says that Sam Bradford quote absolutely wants to 554 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: play in twenty eighteen. What the to me? What I 555 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: got out of this report was Pellicero spoke with Dr 556 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: James Andrews, who went out to clean out a bone 557 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: spur and some cartilage damage in bradford'sknee and said the 558 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: joint itself is sound, ligaments intact, no reason for concerned 559 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: going forward. Why why would there be any concern? You know, 560 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like written, Sam Bradford off, But no, 561 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: I'm not. But I think it would be insane not 562 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: to be concerned, considering they had no idea why he 563 00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: couldn't play football last year and he's had multiple UH surgeries, 564 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: reconspective surgeries.

Both girls 567 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: huge fans of a league of their own. I rewatched 568 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: the film with them. Quite an enjoyable movie, even though 569 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: it's old. Greg, I like that movie. I haven't seen 570 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: it in a long time, but I remember Jimmy. Yeah, 571 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: Jimmy Dugan who played played by Tom Hanks. The manager 572 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: Sam Bradford made me think of it. I have no 573 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: cartilage in my knee. And Curtis Martin's all right, there 574 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: you go, nice rap sheet rumors round up, all right, 575 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: it just happens, alright, moving on, here we go, Greg, 576 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: You're ready forgiveness, baby?

Once it's on 580 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: the paper, though, it's if we were still allowed to 581 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: play music on this podcast, we could call you are 582 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: forgiven from the rushmore So, it would have been nice. 583 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 1: Would have been nice. Thank you, Shadowy league figures. I 584 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: was I was reading Heart. I was like reading a book, 585 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: you know, not to bring bring it down a little bit, 586 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: but you know, it's about sort of end of life. 587 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: Was written by someone who works in a hospice care, 588 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: you know, and and there it's a good one. And 589 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: and they said you know, the most important thing a 590 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,080 Speaker 1: lot of times when you're when you're on your deathbed 591 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: is is forgiveness. You know that you want you want 592 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: to forgive what you know, your children for things you've done, 593 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: or you want their forgiveness, or you want forgiveness of 594 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: your parents or vice versa. It's all. It's all about forgiveness. 595 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: And I thought, let's get ahead of let's get ahead 596 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: of the game. Let's not wait till we were on 597 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 1: our deathbed, and let's let some forgiveness out to the 598 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: football communities. That's because you think that you're forgiving someone else, 599 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: but you're really forgiving your That's that was a lot 600 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: about that. And if you would have listened to the 601 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: or paid tention to the lyrics of forgiveness by Don Henley, 602 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 1: I would argo. He told us about this in nineteen nineties, right, 603 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: He's like, here comes a book from a hospice forty 604 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: years from now. I'm going to drop it to you 605 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: right now. In nine By the way, I'm not sure 606 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: Don Henley came up with the concept of forgiveness either. 607 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: But if we were going to continue to you know, religion, 608 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: going back for if you followed, if you're a fan 609 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: of rock history, and you you know anything about Don Henley, 610 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: maybe not, probably the biggest forgiveness guy out there in 611 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 1: the game right now. So yeah, listen to listen to 612 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: what's what's the phrase? Listen to him? Don't follow us 613 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: that right? All right? Here we go forgiveness comma, and 614 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: I don't mean the Don Henley banger. Everyone, let's go 615 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: around the room. Uh? And and what do you who 616 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: do you forgive? Mark Seesler. Well, when I when Greg, 617 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: you texted this early, and I thought, you know, I 618 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: don't really like I would need to be offended by 619 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: something that happened in the NFL. And for me, my 620 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: honest emotional reaction to nine D nine point nine of 621 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: NFL transactions or actions are just like I'm over it 622 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: by sundown for the most part. But there is one 623 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: no no and I and I didn't respond for a while, 624 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: but then I thought, yes, you know what, that's not true. 625 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: There is one that if you had not come up 626 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 1: with this, I probably would have let it sit there 627 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: for another ten twenty thirty years, save it from your deathbed. Thought, 628 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: I do not want to hang onto this anymore, because 629 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: I honestly have gotten into fights with people over this. 630 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: I remember getting into fight with a with a close 631 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 1: family member long time ago who was a friend of 632 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 1: a team related to all of this, the Baltimore Ravens. 633 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: I need to forgive Art Model. A lot of Browns fans, 634 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: a lot of Browns fans will not agree, and I 635 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: they have to go through their own journey with that. 636 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: I totally get it. But I was thinking about one 637 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: aspect of Art Meldell that I think Browns fans would 638 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: just say, most of them say who cares? But when 639 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 1: I first fell in love with that team and they 640 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: lost the drive and lost the fumble, and they lost 641 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: to the Broncos two years later in a third AFC 642 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: Championship with no name because it was just a wipeout, 643 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: Art Model up in the owner's box, slumped over, depressed, 644 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: his heart bled for the Browns, and that part of 645 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: the that's the one part of that man that I 646 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: can still remember fondly. And not to say too much 647 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 1: more about it, but I have clung onto this and 648 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 1: it's made me annoyed angry with Cleveland's fate ever since, 649 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: especially to watch Art Modele do what he did and 650 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 1: go win a Super Bowl somewhere else. No Browns fan 651 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,240 Speaker 1: needs to be happy about anything that happened to him 652 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: after Cleveland. But to your point, it's affected me more 653 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: than it's affected anyone else. I'm a little tired of it. 654 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 1: How many more years do I need to be How 655 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 1: many more times do I need to cling to some 656 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: football narrative that I had no control over that just 657 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 1: simply didn't go my way? It's I'm over it. So 658 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,240 Speaker 1: I forgive Art Model, I forgave the whole Model family. 659 00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: I want to turn a fresh page and move on. Wow, 660 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: question does this thing Extand to forgiving the city of Baltimore? 661 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: My problem with Baltimore, it's a little bit of a 662 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: different cases. They had it done to them and did 663 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 1: it to someone else. I don't think that's a good 664 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: lesson for anyone but but nine. But almost everyone involved 665 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: in that had nothing to do with the first part 666 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: of it, So I don't I Actually, I'm a Browns fan. 667 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna like the Ravens anymore than Dan likes 668 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: the Bills of the Patriots. But enough with confronting Ravens 669 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: fans at pubs, which I've done multiple times. Just what 670 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,320 Speaker 1: are your action steps that is to release the anchor 671 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: and let it get Save Save the Baltimore forgiveness for 672 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,439 Speaker 1: like season five. If this was a TV show, Mark 673 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: just hit us with a banger of a pilot. It's 674 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 1: gonna get the show picked up. Everyone's gonna say, wow, 675 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: this is something else that's a later beat. And then 676 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 1: now that's a big one, very good. Nice forgiveness. I 677 00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: can't top that. I'm not even sure what I'm gonna 678 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: forgive you. I had like three or four. Yeah, mine, 679 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 1: mine feels like a mole hill cane is very small. 680 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 1: I dumped the Tennessee Titans and really didn't care much 681 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,319 Speaker 1: for Marcus Mariota the rest of the season because the 682 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 1: Titans did something really stupid. They signed a backup quarterback 683 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 1: who for three years has not been able to throw 684 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 1: a football. And every time Matt Castle plays, the field 685 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: shrinks to a ten by ten pit at the line 686 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: of scrimmage because Rashad Jones is safety for the Dolphins, 687 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: goes a hundred miles an hour at the line of 688 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: scrimmage every single drop back from Matt Castle, knowing that 689 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 1: the guy can't throw anymore. Everyone in the league knows 690 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: the guy can't throw it away. Sound like did you 691 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: forgive Matt Castle? Like I'm not, who are your friend? 692 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 1: Segment about forgive? This turned into a hit piece on 693 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 1: Matt Castle, the title, well, I get it because he 694 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: hasn't taken enough. This is part of the process of 695 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,440 Speaker 1: this show. This is part of the process. This is 696 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,399 Speaker 1: cathartic for me. You know, this is why I had 697 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:01,439 Speaker 1: good reasons for dumping that. But this is a new 698 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: regime now with Vrabel coming in new offensive coordinator. If 699 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 1: they cut ties with Matt Castle, I will forgive the Titans. 700 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 1: Well if if Matt that I like it. But if Matt, 701 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: if Matt is out there listening right now, if I 702 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 1: if if, if I'm Matt Castle, and I would be thinking, 703 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 1: what do I gotta do West to get your forgiveness. 704 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: I was a seventh round pick who didn't even get 705 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 1: to play in college. I had a great career. I 706 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: love the game. I've tried to play it as as 707 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: long as I can. Back off me. It's sort of 708 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 1: like how Mark felt about Matt Flynn for for a 709 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: couple of years. He's out there collective millions of dollars 710 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 1: when it's clear he can't throw. Highly annoyed and really 711 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 1: the blame is not on him. It's on that I 712 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: should hope not. I mean, gentlemen, let's not counting other 713 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: people's money. Though. It's not their fault, that their agents. 714 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 1: That's that's what I'm saying. It's not his fault, it's 715 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 1: the Titans fault. If the Titans want to offer me 716 00:37:57,440 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: three millions million dollars a year to throw at ten 717 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: yards beyond line of scrimmage, I can do that. I mean, 718 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: he's made it now. I'm counting it up here. Fourteen 719 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 1: seasons and six different teams for a guy who didn't 720 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 1: throw the ball in college. Well, it's it's only three 721 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: of those years that he's been unable to throw a football. Forgiveness. 722 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:22,240 Speaker 1: That is the sound of forgiveness right there. Um moving, 723 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: moving on, Mike mccagnet, I forgive you for Christian Hackenburg. Okay, 724 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:32,439 Speaker 1: that's good. I the Hackenburg thing was not butt fumble bad, 725 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: but it was the most embarrassing thing to happen to 726 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: the Jets since the butt fumble, and it continues to 727 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 1: be a source of punch lines. And with good reason. 728 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: You drafted a guy in the second round based on 729 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: the fact that he looks like a quarterback in like 730 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 1: a TV movie, which in retrospect, maybe that was not 731 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: the way to go. He'll probably never play a snap, uh, 732 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: certainly for the Jets and probably, let's face it, maybe 733 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 1: ever in the NFL. So if you want to talk 734 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: about burning draft capital a team the Jets that have 735 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: historically been terrible drafting in the second round, so to 736 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:08,280 Speaker 1: find to find someone that stands head and shoulders above 737 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: anyone else in terms of terrible use of a premium 738 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: draft pick, Christian Hackenburg embarrassing, terrible, set the franchise back. 739 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,239 Speaker 1: But now I forgive you, Mike mccagnuet, But there's a cave. 740 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 1: There's a caveat here. There's a caveat We're still going 741 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: to school, and yeah, there's a caveat here. Because it's 742 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: not a free pass. I'm willing to move forward. But 743 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: you are. You are sitting right now, Mr Big Mac, 744 00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 1: on a war chest that after you get rid of 745 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:42,879 Speaker 1: Moe Wilkerson and a couple other floats them flotsam jetsam, um, 746 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: you will have over a hundred million dollars to spend. 747 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,359 Speaker 1: And you have Kirk Cousins, who's on the right side 748 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: of the Dalton scale. And you have the sixth overall 749 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,759 Speaker 1: pick with the opportunity possibly move up if you really 750 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: want to just get me a quarterback. Easier said than done. 751 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 1: But if you come out of this with a with 752 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: a real option that the fan base can get excited about, 753 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:06,640 Speaker 1: I can move past the pact the fact that you 754 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 1: made one of the most disastrous draft picks in the 755 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 1: last ten years. And I will say one thing in 756 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: his defense picking it in the second round was it 757 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: was outrageous. But if the outside of Dak Prescott, which 758 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,720 Speaker 1: everyone's like, oh you know, Team X didn't draft Dak Pescott, 759 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,399 Speaker 1: will we get it? But you look at the other 760 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: like eight quarterbacks taken after Christian Hackenburg, it is a 761 00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: bunch of junk. Outside of maybe Jacoby Brissette, it is 762 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:35,800 Speaker 1: a bunch of junk. So he he had to pick someone. 763 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: But you're right, the Hackenburg narrative has been disastrous because 764 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: he hasn't even seen the field. I think we're I 765 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 1: think we're still learning about forgiveness because you know, when 766 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: you're on your deathbed, I don't know if you can 767 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 1: give caveats with your forgiveness. Well you run out of time. Yeah, 768 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: I mean they can't be with basically, I mean I 769 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 1: should know in about a month. Like even if I 770 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: don't know if this, if they get a rookie quarterback, 771 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: at least get one of these hot shots and let's 772 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: let's fly and see if it works out. But no 773 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 1: more reaching and standing by your your gut instinct and 774 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: all that. Let's go figured out. You have so many choices, Yeah, 775 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: they're all They're all mole hills compared to these, But 776 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: I'll do it. I'll do the one that feels most 777 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:21,960 Speaker 1: personally true, which is that I forgive Drew Bledsoe. And 778 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,879 Speaker 1: this is you know, this is something that probably knowing 779 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,280 Speaker 1: that other than myself would even know. But I've probably 780 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: gone out of my way over the last fifteen years 781 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 1: whenever the subject came up to point out some of 782 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: Drew Bledsoe's uh lesser less admirable character traits during the 783 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,880 Speaker 1: two thousand and one season that people seem to forget about, 784 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: you know, when the Rise of Tom Brady happened. I've 785 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 1: always liked to kind of point that out, like, Okay, hey, 786 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:51,360 Speaker 1: like this this guy that that has been you know, 787 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,879 Speaker 1: kind of somewhat beloved, I guess would have new England area, 788 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:56,399 Speaker 1: like pointing out something past the fact. Now I think 789 00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:00,840 Speaker 1: we're older, we've seen different things. Winery has his winery. 790 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 1: But also maybe I'm maybe I'm older and understand the 791 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 1: dynamics a little better. Things happen in in people's careers. 792 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:11,840 Speaker 1: You know, people are coming up to possibly replace you. 793 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 1: It's a very natural human reaction, maybe to be territorial. 794 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,800 Speaker 1: You're competitive, like that's one of the things that maybe 795 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 1: made you a great athlete in the first place. And 796 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,800 Speaker 1: now I think it's kind of flipped where it's happened 797 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 1: to Tom Brady on some level. Uh. And I certainly 798 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 1: don't hold anything against Tom Brady for being very competitive 799 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 1: and maybe doing some things to the guy below him. 800 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 1: And so I've always held that in my in my 801 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 1: heart that like at this, Drew Bledsoe, he's not He's 802 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 1: not the great guy everyone says. And then that that 803 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 1: was maybe a fault of my own, not of Drew Bledsoe. 804 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: So I forgive you the most tender I've ever heard. 805 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 1: That was pretty that was pretty great. Okay, then I 806 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 1: guess again, and I'll quote the great poet Don Henley. 807 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,319 Speaker 1: I've been trying to get down to the heart of 808 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,400 Speaker 1: the matter. But my will gets weak and my thoughts 809 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 1: seemed to score at her. But I think it's about forgiveness. 810 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 1: Forgiveness even if, even if you don't love me anybody else, 811 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 1: have one nothing where it needs to be said. I 812 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 1: think I'll save him for the next time. We're bringing 813 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: this one back in a couple of months, So give 814 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 1: it for who don't we forgive? Podcast? Can? I? Can? 815 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: I just throw out one more? It's important. I forgive you, 816 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:28,840 Speaker 1: Sean McDonough. Mm hmm. You took unnecessary criticism when you 817 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: replace my boy, my sweet prince Mike Terrico was to 818 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 1: play by play guy on Monday Night Football, and in retrospect, 819 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,919 Speaker 1: that was very unfair. McDonald didn't do anything wrong other 820 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 1: than not be Mike Tarrico, and not many people are. 821 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 1: Mike Terrico was hitting out and Sean was an easy target. 822 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: But now that Jake John Gruden's gone fresh fresh late, 823 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: I hope Sean McDonald is part of the new team. 824 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 1: And um, I like, I like to look at this 825 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 1: as a perfect place, a fresh start for both of us. 826 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 1: So I'm sorry, um, Sean McDonough. And while we're on 827 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,320 Speaker 1: the topic, who do you guys want to replace John Grooted. 828 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,640 Speaker 1: I would. I would swing for the fences on Bruce Arians. 829 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: I like that a lot. I like that it's not 830 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 1: another former quarterback that they're rolling out hoping to get 831 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 1: the next Tony Romo. Arians. We we know that he's 832 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:28,120 Speaker 1: in some cases painfully honest. I think he would. He 833 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 1: has no he's not trying to get back into coaching, 834 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: so he is no. He doesn't try to have to, 835 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,359 Speaker 1: you know, soft sell everything and tell us how great 836 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 1: everyone is for his next big contract four years from now. 837 00:44:37,160 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 1: He just could be honest. I like it. I like 838 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 1: that arians choice just to throw a different name out there, 839 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 1: just to make this room go crazy. How about j 840 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,760 Speaker 1: Coutlor just to make the whole world a little while 841 00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 1: there on Monday night football. I like it. But we 842 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,920 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't. I don't know, but I'd like to. 843 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: I want him to go. He's gonna see gonna go 844 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: back to announcing. Have they talked. I hope he said 845 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,360 Speaker 1: said he would go. I mean think unless it was 846 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:04,080 Speaker 1: always a ruse or he's just waiting to get paid. 847 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:05,759 Speaker 1: But he went through an interview process and now he 848 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: was hired. He was like announced he did some interviews 849 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 1: about it. The one thing I don't think we have 850 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 1: to worry about because he he bombed what essentially served 851 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: as an audition on the first Monday night last year. 852 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna get rexy now. I think 853 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 1: if REXI would have killed it and people were talking 854 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:23,359 Speaker 1: positively about Rex Ryan's doing what was the Niners game 855 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 1: or whatever it was, he would be a real option 856 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:29,640 Speaker 1: for them. But I don't think it's gonna happen. I agree, 857 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:36,520 Speaker 1: all right, before we hit the mailbag, Oh yeah, square Space. 858 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 1: Support for today's show comes from square Space.

A long time 882 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:13,000 Speaker 1: Jets linebacker David Harris announces his retired I'm sorry to 883 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 1: the listeners once again, your hopes are up. You thought 884 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 1: of major A major announced it was coming. If you 885 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 1: don't think I'm just gonna create some sort of item 886 00:47:21,520 --> 00:47:23,759 Speaker 1: of news in every show for the rest of the 887 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 1: off season, you're sorely mistake. And so I'm glad this 888 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 1: actually happened. And if David Harris a great eleven year 889 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: veteran retiring doesn't merit mentioned. Hey, I love the hat Man. 890 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 1: Did you know he was known as the hit man 891 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 1: my Jets? I didn't know. Very nice, Yeah, a really 892 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 1: nice career was durable as hell, was the backbone of 893 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:46,280 Speaker 1: their defense for a decade on some very good Jets 894 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,319 Speaker 1: defenses and the Rex Ryan era. He got old as 895 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 1: happens in football and U he went to the Patriots 896 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 1: to chase a ring, did not ever find a role, 897 00:47:55,239 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 1: and now now he's done. David Harris was a nice 898 00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 1: player though. All right, let's now move to the mail bag. Oh. Yeah, 899 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 1: been a while since we got the bag. Thank you 900 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,920 Speaker 1: the listeners that sent in. As always, there was no 901 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:15,920 Speaker 1: shortage of topics, uh and questions um hashtag a t 902 00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: N mail bag. So let's go through some of them. 903 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:21,200 Speaker 1: Here's a good West. I'll start with you on this one. 904 00:48:21,239 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 1: This one from John Newby at Real Nuby. Am I 905 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 1: crazy for hoping that Vikings avoid Kirk Cousins and just 906 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 1: signed Teddy b and a solid backup injuries aside, don't 907 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 1: they have similar upsides? I like the question, Well, I 908 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 1: think I know where West is going on this. But 909 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:41,040 Speaker 1: that's one thing that seems to be not being discussed 910 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:43,720 Speaker 1: a lot that they have these options in house, the Vikings, 911 00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 1: and yet everyone's saying, go get Kirk Cousins when you 912 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 1: might have it right under your nose. Yes, he's crazy. Sorry, John, 913 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 1: I don't think Teddy Bridgewater is upside is even what 914 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:57,040 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins has done numbers wise for the last three years, 915 00:48:57,040 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 1: when he's been a top five NFL quarterback, and Kirk 916 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:05,399 Speaker 1: Cousins is alone as the only quarterback who consistently gets 917 00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: nailed for being a system guy, I don't ever hear 918 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 1: that anybody with numbers like Kirk Cousins is a system quarterback. 919 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:14,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever heard of any quarterback 920 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 1: who has the numbers of him who has been called 921 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,439 Speaker 1: a system quarterback to the center the extent he has 922 00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:22,680 Speaker 1: been maybe Alex Smith. And Alex Smith does not just 923 00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 1: number he's even comparable this year he did over over 924 00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 1: a forty eight game sample size to be putting up 925 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: over four thousand yards every year around thirty touchdowns and 926 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:36,480 Speaker 1: rate numbers and yards per attempt adjusted yards per attempt 927 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 1: passer rating like Kirk Cousins and be you know, just 928 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 1: kind of way you know, off handedly labeled a system quarterback. 929 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,319 Speaker 1: I don't see Teddy Bridgewater ever playing at that high 930 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 1: of a level. What about Sam Bradford then? What I 931 00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 1: mean they're just or bringing back case kata? Like, why 932 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 1: why should the Vikings definitely blow up the position when 933 00:49:57,120 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 1: they might have the option? Well, they might not have 934 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:00,759 Speaker 1: a choice if they can't sign and Cousins, and I 935 00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:04,239 Speaker 1: think they have good options to bring back then, but 936 00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: I think they they understandably could believe that Cousins is 937 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 1: a far safer bet than any of those three, and 938 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:13,480 Speaker 1: that they have a Super Bowl window to win right 939 00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 1: now while that defense is altogether all right, Next one 940 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: comes from you guys ready, Oh we are George Harold 941 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:31,440 Speaker 1: at George Underscore Harold. What is Justin Tucker's trade value? Well, 942 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 1: how about this? How bright is the sun seven number 943 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 1: one picks over the course of seven years? Why would 944 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 1: they trade him? That's a great question. Why would you 945 00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,320 Speaker 1: trade the best player in the NFL? I have no idea, 946 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 1: But anyway, that's my answer. I have no idea. There's 947 00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:48,640 Speaker 1: no way to compute such a thing. Moving on, Derek 948 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:52,920 Speaker 1: at Derek x v X picking a division from each conference, 949 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 1: which one do you believe will be the strongest and 950 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 1: could potentially produce three playoff teams. I like this one. 951 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:03,840 Speaker 1: Nice job, Derek, three playoff teams. I hate to be 952 00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:06,040 Speaker 1: a sour puss, but wouldn't this be a better question 953 00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:08,600 Speaker 1: to ask after free agency in the draft? Yeah, that's 954 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 1: a fair question. That's where where we are today. I 955 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 1: finally feel like the a f C South could do that. 956 00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:19,080 Speaker 1: You've got Deshaun Watson with the Texans. You've got the Jaguars, 957 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 1: who are super Bowl level team, and you've got the 958 00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 1: Titans that just made the playoffs and won a playoff game. 959 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:26,879 Speaker 1: Yeah I would I would stick with the NFC South 960 00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,520 Speaker 1: who did it last year and they're gonna happen. But 961 00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:32,320 Speaker 1: it's one from each comp. Yeah, for the for the NFC, 962 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:35,800 Speaker 1: just because of the quarterbacks are so stable and strong 963 00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:37,840 Speaker 1: in the NFC South that you like a chance in 964 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,720 Speaker 1: the a f C. I don't like any of those choices, 965 00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,800 Speaker 1: but if I had to choose one, I think I 966 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,600 Speaker 1: would go back to the North and and think maybe 967 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,239 Speaker 1: the Ravens and Bengals get back get back in. I 968 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't feel good about any of those. 969 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 1: I think the exercise shows you the NFC right now 970 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: from where we stand, is A has a much heavier 971 00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 1: crop of top flight teams for sure. Next stuff, Jason 972 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: Stein at Jason A. Stein asks why does college not 973 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:09,160 Speaker 1: just move her production meeting by ten minutes? I've always 974 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:12,720 Speaker 1: had the same it's question. It's it does not involve 975 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 1: just her, but it is. We're talking about ten minutes 976 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:18,440 Speaker 1: of human life. Is she gonna get fired off that 977 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:21,880 Speaker 1: power ranking show? I mean, I feel like she has 978 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,160 Speaker 1: some sway at this point. She's the host. Yeah, there 979 00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 1: is something strange that I don't think any NFL network 980 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:31,879 Speaker 1: meetings ever start at eleven forty, you know what I mean? 981 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 1: Like it always is right on the half hour, and 982 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 1: there are probably ten other people in that room, maybe more. 983 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:41,400 Speaker 1: I have you attended one meeting ever in this building 984 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:45,480 Speaker 1: that would have suffered by being ten minutes shorter, or 985 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 1: they would have suffered by not happening at all. A 986 00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:53,719 Speaker 1: or B. Next up Alex at Mr holbear Mark, I'll 987 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:57,839 Speaker 1: I'll throw this one to you. What's more likely? A little? 988 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 1: What's more likely? What more? I'm gonna modify? Alex is 989 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 1: just a little bit. Uh. The Browns take a QB 990 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 1: at one or sign one of the Vikings qbs. I'm 991 00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 1: gonna make it a little bit more broad. The Browns 992 00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 1: take a QB at one or they don't. I I 993 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:16,960 Speaker 1: think that they It is more likely that they take 994 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 1: a QB at one. That's there's a lot of people 995 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 1: and I'm hearing this on twitever day. Why would you 996 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:25,200 Speaker 1: not take sequon Barkley. It's like, oh, the Browns need 997 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 1: to do this, if they know what they're doing, It's like, okay, 998 00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 1: But then all these same people a month later, when 999 00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 1: the quarterback they didn't take it one is blowing up 1000 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 1: with one of the other three teams are turning into 1001 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 1: uh a star with the Giants. How could Cleveland have 1002 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 1: possibly been so dim to for a once again pass 1003 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:42,799 Speaker 1: on the court. If you don't do it at one, 1004 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna pay the price from a pr angle if 1005 00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 1: you missed the guy. Yeah, I would put my I 1006 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:51,719 Speaker 1: would put my kids non existent college fund on the 1007 00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:55,440 Speaker 1: Browns taking a quarterback at one. I would be really 1008 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:57,319 Speaker 1: shocked if they did the first thing John Dorsey did 1009 00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 1: when he got in the building. Lets send us scouts 1010 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 1: out to start study in the quarterback. Why wouldn't you 1011 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:06,200 Speaker 1: take a quarterback? Brownies? Get your guy. Next up this 1012 00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 1: one from Callum Leslie at Callum Leslie ninety two. What 1013 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:17,080 Speaker 1: are the best and worst beers You've ever drunk?

Well? 1015 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 1: As as I stated on Mark's Bumper's podcast, e'instock from 1016 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 1: Iceland is probably the White Ale is one of my 1017 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 1: favorite beers. Shinerbach. That's up there? Um? Are you referring 1018 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:35,560 Speaker 1: to the heat Light podcast? No, this was a previous 1019 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 1: uh ten to twelve minute bumpers. Yes, go ahead, Sorry, 1020 00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:45,319 Speaker 1: Uh those would be the two top beers. What that 1021 00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 1: Blue Moon? Is that a beer? It's like a Belgian 1022 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:49,799 Speaker 1: beer that they always want to put fruit in, Like 1023 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 1: they'll put like an orange peel or something on the 1024 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:56,400 Speaker 1: side of from that's the worst. That is amazing that 1025 00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 1: you said that, West, because I haven't written right here 1026 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:02,719 Speaker 1: blue Moon the worst beer? Don't add us? Oh that 1027 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:07,080 Speaker 1: shocked top is terrible too. I I I for years 1028 00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: because I know a lot of people that love Blue Moon, 1029 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:11,719 Speaker 1: And to me, I've always said that to me, it 1030 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:14,799 Speaker 1: tastes like salami juice. It tastes like to me, like 1031 00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: decay carrots. Well, yeah, and here's the one thing I'm 1032 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 1: proud of and descriptive again, Blue Moon. Do not throw 1033 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:24,760 Speaker 1: a lawsuit at me. I'm allowed to have an opinion. 1034 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:28,040 Speaker 1: What I've shared, that opinion that it tastes like salami juice. 1035 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 1: I have turned people off the product forever because they 1036 00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,279 Speaker 1: at once say oh my god, you once they link 1037 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:37,799 Speaker 1: and then they get off it too. So now now 1038 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:39,680 Speaker 1: it's just gone. Why what I'm hearing a little bit 1039 00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:41,839 Speaker 1: when I could not agree with more is I don't 1040 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: want any beer where they're putting a lemon or orange 1041 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,920 Speaker 1: slice on top of it. I don't do that. Um, 1042 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 1: I would say, you know, this is a lot a 1043 00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: lot from hanging out with Dan that beer is not 1044 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:55,800 Speaker 1: my first choice when I go out to begin with anymore. 1045 00:55:56,120 --> 00:56:02,359 Speaker 1: But I like um currently Alagash, it's uh. I like 1046 00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:05,439 Speaker 1: Race or five once in a while. UM, I love 1047 00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:08,880 Speaker 1: fat Tire. But beyond that, I don't get that. I 1048 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,399 Speaker 1: don't get that adventurous. There is one type of beer 1049 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:13,440 Speaker 1: that I I'm off of, but I spent a season 1050 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:16,080 Speaker 1: on which was a they had like the grapefruit, like 1051 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 1: the like the very nice. It's not too strong, it's 1052 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 1: a nice little not grapefruit and grape fruit flavored. You're 1053 00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:27,799 Speaker 1: talking about the one with the fish on it. Well, 1054 00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:30,000 Speaker 1: there's more there. I don't know, because there's like some 1055 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 1: balla ballast head that there were like seven or eight 1056 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 1: with this too. Yes, but I'm gonna go more personal experience. 1057 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 1: I think I've had the most fun drinking Abita amber 1058 00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 1: in my life. Oh, I love a bog And I 1059 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 1: think I had the least fun drinking Beck's beer when 1060 00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:49,400 Speaker 1: I was about fourteen or fifteen years old. That was 1061 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 1: terrible warm Beck's beer. In the basement. Yeah, we constantly 1062 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 1: had rolling Rock, which which when you would it was 1063 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: the only beer that we somehow, and you would crack 1064 00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,920 Speaker 1: it open and it's no I had a wonderful times 1065 00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:01,880 Speaker 1: throwing rock back in the days. But you'd open it 1066 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:03,919 Speaker 1: and it it smelled like when you'd open a bag 1067 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 1: of potato chips. That first gustave air that is unforgiving 1068 00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 1: because it's three one bottle which lets the sunshine in 1069 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,359 Speaker 1: and it skunks it out. That's what they say. I've 1070 00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 1: heard that. Uh. And if you ever spot the old 1071 00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 1: zeuser like an airport bar and don't have the option 1072 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 1: to get him a Tito's, uh, get me a Mexican lagger, 1073 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 1: and I will take a line in my Corona or 1074 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:27,520 Speaker 1: my Pacific that's different. In general, I don't like the 1075 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,480 Speaker 1: big giant orange slice on top of a glass of beer. Please, 1076 00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:34,439 Speaker 1: nobody went I p a here. Nicely done, good job, 1077 00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 1: good job, nice talk. Alan rees at Archivists underscore Ale. 1078 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 1: What do you think of Damashek having a speaking part 1079 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:48,240 Speaker 1: in Scorpion? Have you guys heard about this? Yes, yes, yes, 1080 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: it's a true story. Dave has some Hollywood connections, as 1081 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 1: you know. He's in like a celebrity fantasy football league 1082 00:57:55,240 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 1: with John Ham for starters, uh, Dick Whitman himself. Uh. 1083 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 1: But he also has a buddy that's connected to Scorpions somehow, 1084 00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:06,400 Speaker 1: and it led to Check having a cameo, and uh, 1085 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:08,320 Speaker 1: what can I say? I'm torn about it, and I'm 1086 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 1: happy for Shack. I hope it went well he shot 1087 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:15,400 Speaker 1: it last week. I'm torn because the shadowy League figures 1088 00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:18,520 Speaker 1: took Scorpion away from our show. Recurring bit that I 1089 00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:23,320 Speaker 1: quite enjoyed was watching and listening to horrible Scorpion ads 1090 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:26,560 Speaker 1: on Sundays during the NFL season. So I feel like 1091 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 1: I've pushed myself away from the program and having Dave 1092 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 1: enter the fray there. It's a little bit of sweet. Yeah, 1093 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 1: it's complex situation. I can't wait to watch it. I 1094 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: think he should be and he would be great on 1095 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:44,880 Speaker 1: more strange television shows. That's true. John at John likes turtles. 1096 00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:51,439 Speaker 1: If if Andrew Luck was to come back and see 1097 00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 1: I didn't help out Squarespace, but I will help out 1098 00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:56,320 Speaker 1: John with his typo here. If Andrew Luck was to 1099 00:58:56,360 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 1: come back and be healthy, oh, maybe maybe the best 1100 00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 1: way would be to not mention that he had a 1101 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 1: type of at all. If Andrew wait, maybe he didn't 1102 00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:06,360 Speaker 1: have a type of Maybe it's just poorly working. You 1103 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 1: should add John to your forgiveness. If Andrew Luck was 1104 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 1: to come back and healthy anyway, what do the group 1105 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 1: honestly believe the ceiling is for the cults? If lux healthy, 1106 00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: what what is the what? What is indie ceiling? But no, 1107 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 1: I don't. They're one of the teams that I think 1108 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 1: will make about as many moves as any team because 1109 00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 1: they need to, especially on defense. So it's a little 1110 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 1: hard to say right now, but the ceiling is winning 1111 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:34,440 Speaker 1: the division and being a contender, being in the mixing. 1112 00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:38,840 Speaker 1: I think the ceiling is every healthy Andrew lux season 1113 00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:41,560 Speaker 1: where if it's a week ANFC playoff field, they can 1114 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 1: win a game in the playoffs, but they aren't super 1115 00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 1: Bowl count not yet. Tendor eleven wins the ceiling. If 1116 00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:49,440 Speaker 1: Chris Ballard can do his job, maybe in a year 1117 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:55,720 Speaker 1: or two. Uh. This one from bites Choco. Greg. Do 1118 00:59:55,760 --> 01:00:00,840 Speaker 1: you think called Kaepert equal next season? I don't. I 1119 01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,040 Speaker 1: was on the camp where I really expected him to 1120 01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:06,400 Speaker 1: get a job throughout all of last off season up 1121 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:08,640 Speaker 1: into the bitter end, and he was. It sounded like 1122 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,040 Speaker 1: he was pretty close a couple of times. At this point. 1123 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:14,240 Speaker 1: I'd be pleasantly surprised if he got a job. I 1124 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 1: hope he does. I hope that he should. It's crazy 1125 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,760 Speaker 1: that he wouldn't be in the league, at least on 1126 01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 1: some level. I got a bit of a Sessler that 1127 01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:25,480 Speaker 1: he's gonna get signed this year, and it's gonna be 1128 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:28,560 Speaker 1: obviously a huge story. It will have implications that go 1129 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:31,480 Speaker 1: well beyond the NFL and and all that. It will 1130 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 1: be one of the big stories heading into training camp. 1131 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:36,960 Speaker 1: Just as Sessler, you just convinced, I'm backing off. I mean, 1132 01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,440 Speaker 1: he has does he have an active lawsuit against the 1133 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 1: league going right now. The unusual situation. I wonder, I 1134 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,440 Speaker 1: just wonder what team would do that. It's gonna take 1135 01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 1: an owner and in a coach I guess to kind 1136 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 1: of stick their neck. Uh, do a couple more here, 1137 01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:57,160 Speaker 1: Graham Hackney, are the forty Niners nailed on? It sounds 1138 01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:01,400 Speaker 1: like a British term. It's from you, are the forty 1139 01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:04,200 Speaker 1: Niners nailed on as the sexy offseason team and the 1140 01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 1: way the Bucks were last year? If not, which team 1141 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:08,560 Speaker 1: do you think it will be? I think that's a 1142 01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 1: I think that's I think he nailed it, Graham. I 1143 01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 1: think the Niners are that team that everyone's gonna be 1144 01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 1: in love with and are gonna pick to either win 1145 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 1: the NFC West or or be a wild card team. 1146 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 1: Does anybody else want to throw another team out there? Well, 1147 01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:24,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna stick with the Chargers, you know. Speaking of forgiveness, 1148 01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 1: I forgive them for making all my positive predictions over 1149 01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:29,560 Speaker 1: the last two or three years look bad. They're finally 1150 01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:32,520 Speaker 1: going to get it done. I mean that's They're not 1151 01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:33,840 Speaker 1: going to be the track. I don't know how you 1152 01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:36,440 Speaker 1: top what the Niners did over with Jimmy g Over 1153 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 1: the last five games at the season. You set the 1154 01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:43,360 Speaker 1: table perfectly to be a raging hype piece the entire 1155 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:45,280 Speaker 1: off season. Except I don't think it's hype. I think 1156 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:47,800 Speaker 1: that that they've kind of got the right GM, the 1157 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,960 Speaker 1: right coach, and Shanahan is shown that he can quickly 1158 01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:54,400 Speaker 1: build an offense. I think they are that dangerous. I 1159 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,920 Speaker 1: think they are that team. I um. I mentioned Garoppolo 1160 01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:00,400 Speaker 1: and the piece I wrote today and it having a 1161 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,480 Speaker 1: little distance, even a couple of weeks, and I know 1162 01:02:03,560 --> 01:02:06,919 Speaker 1: we all love Garoppolo. It is pretty crazy that as 1163 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:08,840 Speaker 1: of right now, he is the highest paid player in 1164 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 1: NFL history. I know, despite I get it. I get it. 1165 01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 1: He looked great in those games with seven starts, the 1166 01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 1: highest paid player ever um in a per season annual average. 1167 01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 1: The fortnight has went all in on this dude, and 1168 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:26,560 Speaker 1: we'll see if it pays off. Makes much more sensor 1169 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford to be the highest paid player in history. 1170 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:31,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I just think that, like the highest paid 1171 01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:33,560 Speaker 1: player in history is often a guy who's it's gonna 1172 01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:35,200 Speaker 1: be a Kirk Cousins, which doesn't make a lot of 1173 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:36,920 Speaker 1: sense to me. I know, he's top five numbers. I 1174 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:43,760 Speaker 1: don't necessarily consider the quarterback track record as franchise level type. 1175 01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:47,200 Speaker 1: Guys was saying, but highest paid circumstance, and the Niners 1176 01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:50,480 Speaker 1: are basically saying, hey, if this doesn't work, get rid 1177 01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 1: of us all in three years. But we believe enough. 1178 01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:58,680 Speaker 1: I'm with you. Finally, from Thomas Daniellian, can you confirm 1179 01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,440 Speaker 1: whether or not you will be gracing London with your 1180 01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:08,880 Speaker 1: presence during the International series? Parenthetical? Please say yes, clothes parenthetical. 1181 01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:14,320 Speaker 1: We can't confirm it yet now, but we hope. So. 1182 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 1: There's sort of a tractor being pulling us there though, 1183 01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 1: because we are real tight with Sky Sports love them. Um. 1184 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:25,600 Speaker 1: We have seen some changes within the infrastructure here at 1185 01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:28,560 Speaker 1: work that make it a more favorable option. We've got 1186 01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:31,480 Speaker 1: some people inside the building pushing for it, pulling for it. 1187 01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:33,480 Speaker 1: I'm not going to go breaking news here, but I 1188 01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:37,000 Speaker 1: had a direct one on one conversation with a shadowy 1189 01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:39,920 Speaker 1: league figure who assured me that the plan is for 1190 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,840 Speaker 1: us to go to London. We've heard the promises before. 1191 01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 1: That's the only thing I'll say. We are hearing all 1192 01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:51,439 Speaker 1: positive things inside the building, so we can't confirm it, 1193 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:54,080 Speaker 1: but it looks great. It's more of like a rap 1194 01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: sheet level report that this is expected to happen. Interesting 1195 01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:02,360 Speaker 1: there you, I'm interesting. More rapt shade from Mark gets 1196 01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 1: the bottom in Indianapolis.
