This is ushering in the post 144 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 4: Lebron James era, even though they got one more shot 145 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 4: to see what they can do together. But at least 146 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 4: we know the direction we're going in the future for 147 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 4: as you know, as a franchise, which is always up 148 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 4: in the air when you lose an all time great 149 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 4: or an all time great retires or moves on. 150 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 2: The plan is key, right, like will it work? Who knows? Right? 151 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 3: No one can know the future Dallas eighteen months ago, 152 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 3: nobody would have thought that this was ever been the case. 153 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 2: Right. If you're in Dallas right now, you're like, wait 154 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 2: a minute, like, my ex looks good. You know what 155 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: I'm saying. So you can't tell what the future holes. 156 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 3: But I think when you look at the first five 157 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 3: years of Lucas career, you see a guy who you 158 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 3: would I'm a betting man, I would bet he'll be 159 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 3: back in the finals. 160 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 2: I would I would. 161 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 3: Bet that he he is a type of guy that 162 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 3: turned your team from average to contending. He's the type 163 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 3: of guy turned your team from terrible to above average, 164 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 3: you know, maybe contented, because that's what the Mavericks were 165 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 3: before they made those trades. Remember the Mavericks traded for 166 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 3: Kyrie Irving and then ended up taking got Derek Lively 167 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 3: and we're like a five hundred team before making those 168 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 3: trades with Washington and Charlotte and getting Daniel Gafford and PJ. Washington, 169 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 3: two guys who were just in NBA Siberia essentially who 170 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,479 Speaker 3: and then got all the way to the finals. 171 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 2: Right, So you saw it like that. 172 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 3: We have proof of concept with Luka doncis here and 173 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,319 Speaker 3: now according to men's health from he. 174 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 2: Started to work out. 175 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 4: Look, I know Luca worked out before, but he. 176 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 2: Didn't work out like this. 177 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 3: As you mature, as expectations rise, then there are different 178 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 3: levels to working out. Now you can work out to 179 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 3: get in shape and be comfortable and come into the 180 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 3: season and be like, I'll really play myself into the 181 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 3: shape I need, or you can go all in something 182 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 3: Lebron has done, something the greats have done. Kobe did it, 183 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 3: Jordan did it, all of the great Kevin Garnett did it. 184 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 3: They come in to the season ready to go because 185 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 3: they want to use that period where everybody's trying to 186 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 3: get themselves in shape. They want to separate themselves and 187 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 3: Luca working out the way he's working out now, new body, 188 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 3: new mentality, new contract. It bowls well for Lakers and 189 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 3: Laker fans alike, because the big knock on him was 190 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 3: he's talented, but you know, is he taking it serious 191 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 3: enough to keep his body healthy? Can he survive a 192 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 3: full season? Or him just coming into training camp and 193 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 3: it's still good training camp still a couple months away, 194 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 3: but him coming into training camp already in shape allows 195 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 3: him to not only you know, start you know, ten 196 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 3: yards ahead of where he normally would start. But it's 197 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 3: a good message for all those guys in the locker room. 198 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 3: It's a message to Lebron James like he's gonna have 199 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 3: a real life running mate who's in it to accomplish 200 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 3: something this year. This isn't a we'll wait and see, 201 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 3: this is I'm in shape. I'm going to be playing 202 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 3: at the highest I've played in and if he if 203 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: he can do that, I mean, he's was twenty eight 204 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 3: points a game, last year twenty eight, seven and eight, 205 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 3: I leave. If we can get a Luca who shows 206 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 3: up ready like that, the Lakers will. 207 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 2: Be tough out. It'll be a tough out. 208 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 3: The thing that I find to be fascinating, and it's 209 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 3: one of the things I don't even know. 210 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 2: Not to say. If it's worth saying out loud, I'm 211 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 2: definitely about to. 212 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 3: But like, if it's worth as a thought exercise, happening, 213 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 3: Luka Doncics gets traded, right, and then Nico Harrison and 214 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 3: the Mavericks go on, I'll turn it like a smear 215 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 3: campaign spin cycle, right, But like, the reality was, the 216 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 3: trade was so the get back for the trade, see, 217 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 3: was so lopsided that everybody nobody stopped to think whether 218 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 3: or not the trade itself was a good idea. It 219 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 3: was how to use trade Luka Dancics for Anthony Davis 220 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 3: and Max Christy without every nobody stopped to stop at 221 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 3: Dante's in that sentence, right, Because if you just had 222 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 3: as a thought exercise, right, like, all right, let's rank 223 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 3: the most tradeable players in the NBA, the least tradeable 224 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 3: Luca Doncas would have been definitely on the least tradable side. 225 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 2: Oh, yes, but I think if you had said. 226 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 3: I'll trade you six first round our five first round 227 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 3: picks and two All Stars for Luka Doncis, right, I 228 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 3: do like hypothetically. 229 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 4: Right, Just yeah, that that may you know, that may 230 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 4: move the needle a little bit. 231 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 2: It just just. 232 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 3: Work with me here, Like, it is not the craziest 233 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 3: thing in the world, because we see guys most of 234 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 3: the time demand trade, right Anthony Davis, for example, when 235 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: he was traded from the Pelicans to the Lakers, that 236 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 3: was what I forget the exact hall. It was like 237 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 3: three starters, several picks like Lonzo Ball, Josh Hart and 238 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 3: h into Toronto now Lights and Braids Brandon. 239 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 2: Right, the three stars, three starters, a bunch of picks. 240 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 3: Right, So let's just say up the anti a bit 241 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 3: because Anthony Davis and Luka Doncis, Luka Doncis I was 242 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 3: better at this point in his career. 243 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 4: Oh, I mean, it's the all NBA players. So you 244 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 4: got to realize the last five years Luka Doncics was 245 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 4: all NBA. You don't first team, right, Okay, So that's 246 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 4: one of the best five players in all of the league. 247 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 3: The better example than is this Jason Tatum had no 248 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 3: obviously not as many all nbas as Luca did early 249 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 3: in his career, but there was a. 250 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 2: Hey should we break these guys up? Hey? Should we? 251 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 3: So trading a guy of this stature, on its face, 252 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 3: isn't that crazy? And I think that if the Luke, 253 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 3: if the Mavericks had never traded Luka Doncic, does he 254 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 3: ever go on this whole revenge toward men's health. 255 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 2: Guess what? I bought kettlebells this offseason? And so do 256 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:46,559 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? 257 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 3: Like it's the sliding door's moment of like if I'm 258 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 3: the Mavericks and I could offer him the super five 259 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 3: year Supermax, It's like I don't want to do that, 260 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 3: and now the Lakers end up getting like motivated, I'm 261 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 3: ready to kick check out my sick fact. I don't 262 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 3: mean the beer Luka Donci. I say this all the time. 263 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 3: One man's trash is another man's treasure. That's just crazy 264 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 3: because I feel like Dallas, if you could hold Nico 265 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 3: Harrison up to a light detective test, like you would 266 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,319 Speaker 3: never say it now because like Slim Charles said in 267 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 3: the wire, if it's a lie, we have to fight 268 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 3: on that lie. And he will fight on that line 269 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 3: now for the rest of his NBA general managing career. 270 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 3: But I think if you really asked to me, be 271 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 3: like man, I wish I could get Luca to have 272 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 3: done just that. 273 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 4: Oh I'm sure they would have wanted a motivated Luca. 274 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 4: But you know, Luca came into the league good. He 275 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 4: came to the league chunky and good and moving at 276 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 4: his own pace. 277 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 2: So that's all he knew. When you come out of 278 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: that bubble of Dallas and you get to a brand 279 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 2: like the Lakers, that light is hot, man, right, That 280 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 2: spotlight is hot every night. 281 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 4: That spotlight is hot. And he hadn't experienced that before, 282 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 4: and so being here and being a part of that 283 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 4: and understanding what that means, but also understanding the responsibility 284 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 4: of being the face of a franchise like the Lakers. Yeah, 285 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 4: that'll motivate you. That'll get you going. It'll get you going, 286 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 4: or to get you going. Absolutely, And we'll talk to 287 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 4: somebody who is in the room.

And an Ephraim, if you're not, if 337 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 3: you don't know, likes to do the show in complete 338 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,879 Speaker 3: and total darkness, vampire stuff. 339 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:37,920 Speaker 9: I give it fifteen minutes. 340 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 2: You're going to no. 341 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,199 Speaker 4: Look, he has this whole portion of the grid on. 342 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 4: It's shining on him. But you know, I like to 343 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 4: have a little mood in here. I'm normally in the 344 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 4: studio by myself. Mark is remote always, and so I 345 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 4: you know, I have my little. 346 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 9: Tripping when I've seen it get darker too. 347 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 10: What what you're talking about, because I had my head 348 00:17:58,880 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 10: down this entire time. 349 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, but this I don't need the spotlight just into 350 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,439 Speaker 3: my eyeball. When he says the spotlight, he means the 351 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 3: light that is overhead attached to the ceiler, otherwise known 352 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 3: as lights. 353 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 2: Speaking of spotlights, let's have a star. 354 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 3: Step up to the stage, Mark Medina, Mark, how are 355 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 3: you doing today, my friend? 356 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 11: I'm doing well. I think you've mistaken me for Luca Dodgers. 357 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 11: That's the star of this weekend. 358 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 359 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 3: I mean well, he's definitely getting paid like it three years, 360 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 3: one hundred and sixty five million dollars. Rob Polinka said, 361 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: and I'm not being hyperbolic. 362 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 2: He said, this is a monu mental moment. 363 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 3: In Lakers history, and also that the best young player 364 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 3: in universe came and joined the Lakers. Were you there 365 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 3: yesterday as the pomping circumstance was all going through. It 366 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 3: feels like it was just a lot of pats on 367 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:52,719 Speaker 3: the backs and high fives. 368 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 11: Yeah. Full disclosure. I wasn't there only because I was 369 00:18:56,119 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 11: doing CBSLA studio duties, but I watched the press conference. 370 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 11: The things that you mentioned I really picked up on 371 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 11: as well. I thought it was also notable that rap 372 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 11: Palinka expressed gratitude to have Luka Doncic with the Lakers, 373 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 11: and that Luca was all about trying to win championships, 374 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 11: and that he expressed optimism that they can win a 375 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 11: championship next season. I think the other thing is that's 376 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 11: of notice who was in attendance. It was almost like 377 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 11: every single teammate of Luka Doncic's was there except for 378 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 11: Lebron James and to a lesser extent, Austin Reeves. So 379 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 11: I thought all those things were very interesting. 380 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 3: Unpacked, I did see by either You're right, it was 381 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 3: all in. 382 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 11: The James family. It was a huge protest maybe. 383 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 2: Their own maybe their own vacation, but as. 384 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 11: Well they I know that they were on vacation, but 385 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 11: we then saw Lebron get back to La train at 386 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 11: a practice facility, but at the Clippers, not the Lakers. 387 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 4: What stay owned by the way now, so just throw 388 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,479 Speaker 4: that out there. Clutch Sports owns that facility now that 389 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 4: the Clippers have moved on. 390 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 2: They just haven't paided. 391 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 4: If Lebron goes to the Clippers, then he gets what 392 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 4: he gets, you know. 393 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 2: But back to the Lakers. 394 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 4: For the layman fan out there, could you explain just 395 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 4: what this means to the franchise in terms of the 396 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 4: future and moving forward, because I know there were some 397 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 4: questions about will he sign the long term deal, will 398 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 4: he wait till the offseason? 399 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 2: Is sign a bigger deal? With him getting that done? 400 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 4: Now, what that signifies for Luca and the Lakers moving forward? 401 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 11: Well, I think there's two things. I mean, I think 402 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,360 Speaker 11: the money part he was going to get paid regardless, 403 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 11: but if he waited a year, he could have gotten 404 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 11: paid more. But he's getting three years, one hundred and 405 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 11: sixty five million. That sets him up to get a 406 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 11: five year extension over three hundred and sixty million and 407 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 11: twenty twenty eight so Luca's going to get paid. I 408 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 11: think the bigger thing what it means for Laker fans 409 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 11: is there's no one uncertainty on whether he's here for 410 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 11: the long term. You know, he had one more year 411 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 11: left on his contract, but in today's NBA, when some 412 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 11: players don't sign an extension as soon as they're eligible, 413 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 11: all of a sudden, you think, okay, does this mean 414 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 11: he wants that? Does he not have any trust in 415 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 11: the front office? Should there be a deal before the 416 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 11: trade deadline? None of that stuff's going to happen. I 417 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 11: think the other thing that also signifies is he has 418 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 11: a lot of trusts in the Lakers' front office, as 419 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,160 Speaker 11: well as how they assembled the roster. Now, Luca Doncics 420 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 11: was partially responsible for this, recruiting players like DeAndre and 421 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 11: Marcus Smart, and I think it also showed that, you know, 422 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 11: Luca is in it to win it. He has optimism 423 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 11: about winning a championship. So did the Lakers. So I 424 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 11: don't put them as championship favorites because that title belongs 425 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 11: to the defending champions, like the Oklahoma City Thunder. And 426 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 11: you know, I think Houston and Denver are more likely 427 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 11: to challenge the Thunder, but the Lakers are right in 428 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 11: that mix. And so you know, even though there's clearly 429 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 11: some divide on how Luca Doncis is doing things versus 430 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 11: Lebron James. I think the Lakers want to win a championship. 431 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 11: It's just a matter of how do they balance that 432 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 11: with their long term prospects. I think given all the circumstances, 433 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 11: this is, you know, as best of a roster as 434 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 11: they could have assembled leaven the next season. 435 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 3: Now, just six months ago, yesterday, Luka Doncis was traded 436 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 3: to LA. Obviously, yesterday signs that massive extension. Talk about 437 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 3: this what happened, And I'll put it like this, six 438 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 3: months ago yesterday when it did an intro press conference, 439 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 3: Luca looked like he was miserable. He looked destraught, looked 440 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 3: very unhappy. Right, I'm not saying he was unhappy to 441 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 3: be in LA. He just looked like despondent. In general, 442 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 3: he didn't look very happy, and I think it had 443 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 3: a lot to do with the shakra be traded and 444 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:53,360 Speaker 3: so on. 445 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 2: You look at the. 446 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 3: One this year, I mean yesterday, it looks like when 447 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 3: they would have the president going in first term and 448 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 3: then after four years later, but the opposite, like he's 449 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 3: you know, he looks like LA has done great for him, 450 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 3: and you hear the reports of him recruiting Marcus Smart 451 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 3: through text message and so on. At what point did 452 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 3: it turn from oh my god, I can't believe it 453 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 3: just got traded to all right, this is home now 454 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 3: I'm going to lock in because there was a It 455 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 3: seems to me there's a clear point of turn. 456 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 11: Yeah, Luca Daccaa said it was basically the first game 457 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 11: he got, you know, a huge warm reception from the Lakers. 458 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 11: I think that you hit on the head that his 459 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 11: first intro press conference, he looked shell shocked, But I think, 460 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 11: in fairness being there had nothing to do with any 461 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 11: misgivings with the Lakers. He's just trying to get over 462 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 11: the fact that this team that guide to the guided 463 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,959 Speaker 11: to the NBA Finals the season before, and was on 464 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 11: the verge of being a franchise player, all of a 465 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 11: sudden traded me and then on my way out poop 466 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 11: pood my conditioning and said, you know, it wasn't worth 467 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 11: the investments. I think that's what he was trying to 468 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 11: get over. Even in real time as he was processing that, 469 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 11: he gushed about the Lakers historical excellence, talked about you know, 470 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 11: Kobe Bryant and all the different luminaries wanting to win championships. 471 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 11: But I think really that first game back he started 472 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 11: embracing being a Laker because of the fan reception. While 473 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 11: there are questions about he and Lebron with, you know, 474 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 11: just the future, I think from a chemistry standpoint, it 475 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 11: was pretty seamless, and so that point on it was 476 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:30,719 Speaker 11: then just about fine tuning things, most notably with his body. 477 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 11: But yesterday he looked stronger, he looked leaner, he looked 478 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 11: a lot happier. And I think this is what's scary. Guys. 479 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 11: He's already made I think six all NBA teams. He 480 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 11: guided Mavericks to the NBA Finals. He's just scratched in 481 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 11: the surface here. I mean, he's already been Top five, 482 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 11: He's an MVP candidate. He's going to just continue to 483 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 11: get better and better and better. And we have to 484 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 11: keep in mind he's still in the prime of his career. 485 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 4: Let me ask you this, and this is a big hypothetical, 486 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 4: but let's just say the Lakers put this thing together, 487 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 4: uh and Lebron James last year with the Lakers, they 488 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 4: make it to the finals, and they win the NBA 489 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 4: championship next year, which I would be elated. I mean 490 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 4: that would that would I almost would give up half 491 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 4: of one of my kids. 492 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: For the just put this on records. 493 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 4: And you know, and Martin gets to have the half 494 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 4: that I'm giving up. Hey, he and Luka Dancic was 495 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 4: the Finals MVP. What would that do to Lebron's legacy? 496 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, it would be fascinating because part of me wonders, 497 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 11: does this think Lebron wants to leave right out on top? 498 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 11: He's made it clear that he's not going to continue 499 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 11: to prolong his career just for the sake of it. 500 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 11: He has to be an all SAR caliber level. And 501 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 11: if he's not Gay's Finals MVP, that's kind of a 502 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 11: signal that you know, this is the best time to leave. 503 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 11: But if he wins a championship, I can't help. But 504 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 11: wonder does he think, you know what, I'll sign at 505 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 11: a relative discount comeback just so I can add the 506 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 11: championship rings. I think, you know, if he doesn't win 507 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 11: finals MVP, it's obvious ammunition for people that you know, 508 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 11: obviously choose Michael Jordanova, Lebron James and the you know, 509 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 11: the discussion is on who is the goat, But it 510 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:29,719 Speaker 11: also helps if he wins a championship, he adapts and 511 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 11: shows that he doesn't worry about whether he's the number 512 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 11: one or number two options. So I think it almost 513 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 11: kind of evens itself out. And then the next question 514 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 11: is does this mean it's his last season? And that's 515 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 11: what makes it very complicated because when you compare with 516 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,479 Speaker 11: Kobe Bryant, I know, covering him in his final years, 517 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,479 Speaker 11: it almost became easier for him to know when it 518 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 11: was his final year because the team wasn't good. He 519 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 11: was having the worst year of his career. He's dealing 520 00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 11: with so many injuries that you know, a month into 521 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 11: the season, he knew, you know what this is going 522 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 11: to be. It that's uff the farewell tour, which is 523 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 11: something that he originally didn't think. Here much different context 524 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 11: because the Lakers have an outside chance to win a 525 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 11: title at least be a playoff contender, and Lebron's playing 526 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 11: all star caliber level, so it's going to be very 527 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 11: fascinating to watch and very unpredictable. 528 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 2: Mark last one. For me, that's kind of the thing 529 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 2: that I question. 530 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 3: There's obviously the Ridge Paul statement, and then Polinka in 531 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 3: the Luca you know parade yesterday going. You know, if 532 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 3: Lebron James chooses to retire a Laker, it was very 533 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 3: if and maybe and not very much. Oh, he'll be 534 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 3: here for sure. Lock it up. Sounds like Renten not buying. 535 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 3: And that's the thing I don't get. Lebron is playing 536 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 3: at an all star level right now. I think you'd 537 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 3: be hard pressed to find. Now, maybe the contract number 538 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 3: is one that you would debate, but you'd be hard 539 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 3: pressed to find ten fifteen better players to put us 540 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 3: alongside of Luka Donci. It's just from a basketball fit 541 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 3: and at forty years old, Yeah, he doesn't play the 542 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 3: same way he did when he was twenty. 543 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 2: Seven, but he's still in a lot better than a 544 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 2: lot of twenty seven year olds. Yeah, what's the deal? Like, 545 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 2: why is this? 546 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 3: Why does it feel like this is a little bit 547 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 3: more than just your average. 548 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 2: Lebron passive aggressiveness this offseason? 549 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 11: Well, I think it's because the nature of Lebron's relationship 550 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 11: with the Lakers, ever since the beginning, has felt more 551 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 11: transactional to anything else. I think the other thing is, 552 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 11: even though Lebron James is a way to play with 553 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 11: Luka Doncic because of where he's at in his career. 554 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 11: The Lakers clearly pivoted that they're making moves in mind 555 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 11: more for what's best for him than what's best for Lebron. 556 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 11: But it doesn't have to be an either or Both 557 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 11: Luca and Lebron want to win a championship next season, 558 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 11: and so they technically both sides have all this upcoming 559 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 11: season to find clarity to those answers. You know, I 560 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 11: think you hit a really good point that even at 561 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 11: his age level, it's hard to find a lot of 562 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 11: players that are better than him. I mean, I would 563 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 11: still say he's top ten in the league, at least 564 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 11: top fifteen, but given where he's at his age, he's 565 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 11: going to be. He's forty now, he's going to be 566 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 11: forty one December thirtieth. Things can change very quickly. There's 567 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 11: tough with father time, So I think by the time 568 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 11: June hits, April hits, maybe even before that, it's going 569 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 11: to be very clear how well Lebron's playing in the 570 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 11: now and what it could be in the future. 571 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the thing. 572 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 3: I get father Time, But Lebron James at this point, 573 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 3: I'm going to he got to show me he can't 574 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 3: play anymore. Mark Medena, we know you still got a 575 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 3: lot of time left in you. So appreciate you coming 576 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 3: on and giving us that insight on the Lakers and everything.

The game was suspended by rain Saturday night 637 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 12: in the first inning, a nearly two and a half 638 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 12: hour rain delay at the start Saturday pick to you. 639 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, that rain was not stopping last night. 640 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 3: When we were watching that delay live and it was 641 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 3: just like they were trying to get it in it. 642 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 2: It was like, no, no, not today. 643 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 8: No. 644 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 12: If they didn't take the teams off the field, the 645 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 12: shortstop would have been swing in the field. At one point, 646 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 12: it was coming down faster than that drying agent was 647 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 12: put down. 648 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 3: Steve was talking about a drying agent. I was like, yeah, 649 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 3: the dry drawing would be the only drying agent possible. 650 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 3: They would have canceled football games in that weather.

Used to be hold out, then they 686 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 3: changed the fines in that CBA, and now you have 687 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,800 Speaker 3: James Cook sitting up in wherever the Bills have camp, 688 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 3: sitting there saying listen, I understand this is a business, 689 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 3: but I'm a business and I'm not taking that field 690 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,240 Speaker 3: until business is handled. 691 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 2: I think. 692 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:45,280 Speaker 4: And you said it right, the new collective Bargaining Agreement. 693 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 4: Before when guys held out, those fines would just be forgiven. 694 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:51,399 Speaker 2: Right. 695 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 4: It's fifty thousand dollars a day for missing mandatory team 696 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:03,720 Speaker 4: functions and that's what training camp is, man, And fifty 697 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,399 Speaker 4: thousand dollars a day adds up. So what you don't 698 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 4: want to do is hold out and incur a two 699 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 4: million dollars fine, I mean, and not have it forgiven 700 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,919 Speaker 4: just off the top of my head. 701 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 3: Now, no one will accuse me of being a mathematician, 702 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 3: but that sounds like a quarter of a million dollars 703 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 3: a week. Yes, yeah, If somebody find me like that, 704 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:30,760 Speaker 3: I just run for the border. 705 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:36,840 Speaker 4: And so you have to find ways to still try 706 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 4: to keep your your your leverage and negotiations as a 707 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 4: player being at home and just hanging out. Remember Ezekiel 708 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 4: Ela was in Cabo, and you know a lot of 709 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,359 Speaker 4: guys just just hang out. That's no longer the case. 710 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 4: So the whole d in is the new thing to do. 711 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 4: Everybody who had a grievance or wanted a new contract 712 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 4: is training camp because it costs real live dollars, not 713 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 4: imaginary dollars anymore. And so guys aren't willing to cough 714 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 4: up that type of money whether they get a new 715 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,280 Speaker 4: deal or not, right because there's a chance you won't 716 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 4: get the deal that you're looking for, but you still 717 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 4: have to pay out for missing that time. So guys 718 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 4: they look, I'm gonna come to work, but I'm not 719 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 4: gonna work. Essentially, I'm gonna show up. I'm gonna punch 720 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 4: the clock, but I'm not gonna put myself in a 721 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:35,959 Speaker 4: position where i can hurt myself and jeopardize my long 722 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:36,760 Speaker 4: term future. 723 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:39,359 Speaker 2: In training camp at least. 724 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 3: Every so often from a reading article like in the 725 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 3: I'm an Apple News subscriber, so I forget I'm not 726 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 3: sure where I read it at May Vanity Fair, The 727 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 3: New Yorker, The Atlantic, something like that. But it'll be 728 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 3: somewhere along in that vein of places. 729 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 2: Right. 730 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 3: And I was reading about this a couple of years ago, 731 00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 3: this concept of quiet quitting, which I was the most outrageous, 732 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 3: ridiculous concept of my entire life. You mean to tell me, 733 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 3: if I am not going above and beyond that my job, 734 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 3: it is now deemed as quitting. 735 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 2: Right. If all I'm doing is. 736 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 3: Going and doing the things that are lifted on the 737 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 3: job duties on the application, I am now deemed as 738 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,240 Speaker 3: a quitter. I hated it. This was wrong with this country. 739 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 3: This is quiet quitting, This is hold in is quiet quitting. 740 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 3: Like I'm not gonna I'm not participating in the drills. 741 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,840 Speaker 3: I will sit here. Like you saw Michael Parson's walking 742 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 3: around with his hoodie on. He's in Oxnard, California. He's 743 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,919 Speaker 3: gotta work real hard to keep that hood on his head. 744 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 3: It's hot out there. 745 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. Like he's like this, I 746 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:44,399 Speaker 2: kind of like the attitude of like, listen. 747 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 3: You will all will jerk me around with my contract 748 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 3: for years, Like Trey Henderson has been fighting for a 749 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 3: new deal, for even the old deal he had to 750 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:56,399 Speaker 3: fight for. 751 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 2: He feels like he should be getting on this one. 752 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 3: Right. Yeah, so I don't necessarily dislike this, but it 753 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 3: feels like something that could just really sew a discontent 754 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 3: in a locker room. 755 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 4: Not because I think the guys in the locker room understand. 756 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 4: That's the one thing that that other players understand when 757 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 4: it comes to players negotiation and the value that that 758 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,760 Speaker 4: player brings to the team. Right, if you're the starter 759 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 4: and you bring a certain level of value at that 760 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 4: spot to your team, and your team feels that they 761 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,840 Speaker 4: need you to win, then they don't have a problem 762 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 4: with the whole in They understand the business of it. 763 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 4: They understand that not all contracts are guaranteed and you 764 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 4: can get hurt permanently on every single play. The you know, 765 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,360 Speaker 4: the percentage of or the chance of you being hurt 766 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 4: on a football player is higher than I believe any 767 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 4: other team sport that has to So they know, they 768 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,400 Speaker 4: know when it's all all said and done, when the 769 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 4: regular season starts, that person will be James will be there, 770 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 4: He'll be available, Trade will be there, He'll be available. 771 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 4: Michael Parsons will be there and be available. And that's 772 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:18,360 Speaker 4: because they understand that. Look, this is when the rubber 773 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 4: meets the road. Like you can posture in the offseason 774 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 4: when there's nothing on the line, but when those games 775 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 4: are on the line, then guys are gonna show up 776 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 4: in their play and they'll play out there last year 777 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 4: of their contract, and they'll play with the mindset of 778 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:34,560 Speaker 4: this is my contract year. I'm going now because you 779 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:37,479 Speaker 4: didn't want to give me what I feel I owed 780 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 4: or what I think I've earned, then I'm gonna make 781 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 4: it impossible for you. 782 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 2: Now. 783 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,720 Speaker 3: So now I'm gonna go try to have a year 784 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 3: where you always talk here, guys in their contract year, 785 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 3: they want to have their best year ever because that 786 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 3: means those numbers go up when it's time for negotiation 787 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 3: in the offseason. 788 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 789 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 3: Absolutely, it's more of a thing you hear about in 790 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 3: the NBA more. I think the contract here true. They 791 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,399 Speaker 3: do have guaranteed money, which is especially now you. 792 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 2: Hear these old player podcasts being like take the money, now, 793 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 2: what are you doing?

They'll probably have 806 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 3: a remake down the line of Jerry's up there long enough. 807 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 3: But he had it before with the Marcus Lawrence and 808 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 3: so on and so forth. Dak Prescott two years ago, 809 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 3: Ceedee Lamb last year, Michael Parsons this year. But you 810 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 3: said something to me in the last segment that I 811 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 3: was like, you know, this is the type of insight 812 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 3: that former athletes, especially the ones that are also also 813 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 3: great at media like yourself, can really truly provide. And 814 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:32,319 Speaker 3: when it was everybody knows that it's a business, right, everybody, 815 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 3: both the players and the coaches and the GA. Everybody 816 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 3: knows that it's a business. And anybody who's not aware 817 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 3: of that or keeping that in mind is just. 818 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 2: Lying to themselves. 819 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:51,759 Speaker 3: And so when Michael Parsons goes full notes app yes 820 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 3: or two days ago whenever it was, he requests the trade, 821 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,479 Speaker 3: and he says, I came to you guys two years 822 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 3: ago when they were up doing it. Everybody knows that 823 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 3: it's a business, right. Everybody knows that is in that 824 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,920 Speaker 3: locker room that if Michael went up there, it's like 825 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 3: essentially approaching two years ago. For a guy on the 826 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 3: Michael Parsons track at that time can be obstensibly viewed 827 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:20,800 Speaker 3: as a pay cut. 828 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 2: Right. 829 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 3: If he plays out his rookie deal, he would be 830 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 3: getting more if everything stayed the same. 831 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 4: No, do you agree with that premise? Is that right 832 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 4: or wrong to you? I just know two years ago 833 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 4: teams very rarely do that. 834 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 2: Now. 835 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:43,760 Speaker 4: Jerry got bitten in the butt by painting someone early 836 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 4: two years prior to having to in Ezekiel Elliott right, 837 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 4: and he didn't improve any year after that, he got worse. 838 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 4: So I can see how Micah's like, hey, I'm on 839 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 4: this trajectory, pay me now, but go ahead. And there 840 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 4: were more pressing deals that needed to be done in 841 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,280 Speaker 4: terms of DAK, in terms of CD before MICHAEH. 842 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 2: Parsons. 843 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 4: So you have to understand, even though it sounds good 844 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 4: that Micah went in there and preemptively told him, hey, 845 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:25,240 Speaker 4: sign me to a longer term deal now and it'll 846 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 4: cost you less. Essentially, they weren't going to do that 847 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 4: because they knew they had them for the next two years, 848 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 4: the next three years, no matter what. 849 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 3: Right, I don't have to pay more for what I 850 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 3: already have right now. 851 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 4: Now, what they should have done, though, is they should 852 00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 4: have paid him towards the end of the season or 853 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:52,359 Speaker 4: at the beginning of the off season, and they would 854 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:55,360 Speaker 4: have set the market, and then everyone else would have, 855 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 4: you know, been beating the market opposed to now them 856 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 4: coming in and the market's been set by TJ. And 857 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 4: now they got a pony up at least a million 858 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 4: more of whatever that number is for TJ. And the 859 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:16,800 Speaker 4: second thing they could have done if they weren't planning 860 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 4: on signing him, is his trade value. 861 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 2: Was through the roof prior to the draft. 862 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 4: They could have got a king's ransom, right, but they 863 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,600 Speaker 4: chose not to do that as well. And so I'm 864 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 4: just scratching my head. And now everybody says, this is 865 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,319 Speaker 4: what Jerry does. He ends up paying his stars no 866 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:42,320 Speaker 4: matter what. But at this point, if you pay three 867 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 4: players that amount of money, you don't have much of 868 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 4: a roster to compete with. So I don't know if 869 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:56,359 Speaker 4: it's about are the Dallas Cowboys looking to compete and 870 00:45:56,480 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 4: a division where Philly has run away with it? And oh, 871 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 4: by the way, there's another team and the Commanders that 872 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 4: is now poised to compete with Philly for that opposed 873 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 4: to Dallas being in the mix. Is Dallas going to 874 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 4: be third or fourth in that division? That's the thing 875 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:29,280 Speaker 4: that this type of negotiation and and and and procrastination 876 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,319 Speaker 4: that Jerry has has has put his team in the 877 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 4: middle of. 878 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,919 Speaker 3: And I definitely think the first and if you look 879 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 3: division wise, Philadelphia is looking down at everything happening below them. 880 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 2: Absolute laughing but laughing. 881 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 4: I mean you got to remember who they played in 882 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:46,399 Speaker 4: the NMC championship game. 883 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:49,839 Speaker 3: Now, I'm not knocking that, but they are definitely looking 884 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 3: down from their ivory tower and being like ha ha ha. 885 00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:54,399 Speaker 2: Right. 886 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:58,839 Speaker 3: So, but to go back to the Micah and Jerry thing, right, 887 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,439 Speaker 3: you go through three years ago or two years ago, 888 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:05,600 Speaker 3: both sides say. Micah says, I want a deal. Jerry 889 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:10,840 Speaker 3: says no. Everybody can understand that. Everybody can understand that. Okay, 890 00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:15,120 Speaker 3: the next year comes. Now we're year four of this. 891 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, and it's like, hey, wait 892 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:20,840 Speaker 3: a minute, Like generally these are when these kind of deals, 893 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 3: when you're top of the market, guys like the Justin 894 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 3: Jefferson's soul ones. These are like when we really start 895 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,360 Speaker 3: to like we're having this conversation earnestly. 896 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,080 Speaker 2: Now, We're not just turning you down regardless. 897 00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 3: Maybe we can come to terms here, maybe we can't, 898 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 3: but like we're gonna have a real conversation here. 899 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 2: For whatever reason, it seems like from that moment to now. 900 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:46,840 Speaker 3: That this one feels different to me, and it feels 901 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 3: different than the DAK negotiations. It feels different than the 902 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:55,359 Speaker 3: CD negotiations because while we all had the feeling that 903 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 3: DAK was gonna get paid, CD was gonna get paid, right, 904 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 3: there was a little melody drama around it, but we 905 00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 3: all kind of had the feeling, and we all again 906 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 3: agree that Michael Parsons probably will get paid when this 907 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 3: is all said and done. It feels to me that 908 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,839 Speaker 3: this is the first time that the Cowboys are in. 909 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 2: The position where this is both your. 910 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:22,720 Speaker 3: Best option and also a top two or three option 911 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,239 Speaker 3: in the league. Right, you paid that because that's the 912 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:28,360 Speaker 3: best quarterback you got and it's gonna be real hard 913 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 3: to find better than him. I like CD, lamb. This 914 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 3: is not a slight to him, but he's the best 915 00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 3: receiver you got. He's not the best receiver in the 916 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:39,640 Speaker 3: league right justin Jefferson, Jabar Chase, they all would like 917 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 3: to have a word, But CED's the best you got. 918 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:45,480 Speaker 3: You're not gonna find any And CD's credit, he is 919 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 3: in the top three four. You're saying you're not gonna 920 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 3: find no better than the CD. Right, you know what 921 00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 3: I'm saying, You can't. You know you're not gonna find 922 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:55,800 Speaker 3: out done the market for it. Michael Parsons is arguably 923 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 3: in the under thirty division the best pass rusher in 924 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:03,279 Speaker 3: the league, right up there with the I think t 925 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 3: wipe up in twenty nine, so under twenty nine to it, Like, 926 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:07,880 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. For that, how does Miles Garrett? 927 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,920 Speaker 3: I think Miles Garrett is thirty Okay, yep, I'll put 928 00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 3: it like this. For the guy goes he's the micl 929 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,759 Speaker 3: what twenty five, twenty six six, He's the best pass 930 00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:18,360 Speaker 3: rusher going into the second contract. Those guys are on 931 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 3: their third deal. 932 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,160 Speaker 9: Mis Garrett is twenty nine, by the way twenty nine. 933 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 9: All right, fex Crosby, I would add, I think he's 934 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 9: in the under twenty eight. 935 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 3: Oh, phrasy like this is fair, this is this is true. 936 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 3: He's the best pass rusher going into his second contract. Yes, 937 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 3: he's the best pass rusher who's in this spot. Yes, right, 938 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 3: that makes sense. Yeah, he's average, you know, well over 939 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 3: twelve sacks a year for the first four years. Fifty 940 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 3: two and a half sacks I think he has in 941 00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:46,240 Speaker 3: four years. So he's on par with those that level 942 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 3: of talent coming off the edge. And to go with 943 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,799 Speaker 3: the idea that it's a business, it makes sense to 944 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,800 Speaker 3: haggle with the Dak Prescott, It makes sense to haggle 945 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 3: with the side Lamb even it to me, don't make 946 00:49:59,040 --> 00:50:01,080 Speaker 3: no sense to haggle with the Michael Parsons. 947 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, but I don't think. I don't think they have 948 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 4: the bandwidth to give Michael what he wants. That's why 949 00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 4: either you sign him early or you trade them, because 950 00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 4: now they can't I don't know if they can afford 951 00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 4: to pay him TJ. Watt money. That's what it's gonna be, right, 952 00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:27,399 Speaker 4: And so I mean that's a steep price tag for 953 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 4: an ed Rusher, and you have so much more money, 954 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 4: so much more of your cap allocated to two other guys. Like, 955 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 4: that's a situation where I liken it to what since 956 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 4: going on in Cincinnati with with Tray they opted to 957 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 4: go offense instead of defense. Now they finally got their 958 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:57,319 Speaker 4: first round draft pick, Stewart signed to a guaranteed four year, 959 00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 4: eighteen million dollar deal. 960 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:03,480 Speaker 2: I believe it is. But you know they're all pro 961 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:06,920 Speaker 2: d n Trey is. 962 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 4: They gave the money to the receivers, right, So if 963 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:19,799 Speaker 4: three guys on the offensive side eating, including smoking Joe 964 00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:27,239 Speaker 4: and so where Cincinnati is a historically cheap franchise, So 965 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 4: even if Joe Burrow comes out like, hey, we need 966 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:33,400 Speaker 4: him pay him his money, at a certain point, ownership 967 00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:35,360 Speaker 4: is gonna be like, I don't know, And I think 968 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 4: there's a little bit of a correlation there with Dallas 969 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 4: unless they know they can't compete in the division for 970 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 4: the next couple of years. If they understand that and 971 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 4: they want to keep Micah and keep them happy, then 972 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:56,319 Speaker 4: they'll do something that really strips away any ability for 973 00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:59,040 Speaker 4: them to compete and build a roster that can compete 974 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 4: in a division that don't get better. But that's the 975 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 4: thing that I and again, as much as my training 976 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 4: camp experience is limited to reading the newspaper, you'll be 977 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,720 Speaker 4: shocked to find out my GM experience is credibly similar. 978 00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:20,240 Speaker 4: But I just don't understand the idea of players as assets, 979 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:22,759 Speaker 4: which is a little bit of an uncomfortable conversation I have. 980 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:29,200 Speaker 4: But if you have, if you know like that last year, 981 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:33,840 Speaker 4: these conversations at the at the you know, the year four, generally, 982 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,759 Speaker 4: when these conversations are starting to happen, you know you 983 00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:38,879 Speaker 4: don't have the bandwidth to give them what you want then, 984 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:40,960 Speaker 4: or at least I put it like this, you should 985 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 4: know that you don't have the bandwidth necessarily give him 986 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:47,200 Speaker 4: what he's looking for in that moment. I just have 987 00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 4: trouble with the idea of like, why is he still 988 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:51,240 Speaker 4: a cowboy? 989 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:53,680 Speaker 3: Why don't you trade him? Why don't you get two 990 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 3: first round picks? Why is that is that just Jerry 991 00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:57,840 Speaker 3: literally asleep at the eighty. 992 00:52:57,719 --> 00:52:58,360 Speaker 2: Year old wheel. 993 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:02,560 Speaker 4: I believe it is, like I said, if they were 994 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:06,439 Speaker 4: unsure about if they were going to do this, then 995 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:10,040 Speaker 4: trading him right before the draft that I mean, that 996 00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:12,799 Speaker 4: would have been an all time high in terms of 997 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:16,799 Speaker 4: value teams would have definitely given up first round draft 998 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 4: picks a couple of them to get a Micah Parsons 999 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 4: on their team, and you missed that window. So now 1000 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:25,840 Speaker 4: you're kind of like in limbo. Now Mica is under contract, 1001 00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:29,239 Speaker 4: he has to play. But say he goes out and 1002 00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 4: has an all Pro year and he leads the league 1003 00:53:32,120 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 4: in sacks, You've just now walked yourself into a situation 1004 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:42,759 Speaker 4: where you almost can't walk away from. And so, like 1005 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 4: I said, if you're okay with just signing the guys 1006 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,120 Speaker 4: that you drafted and the guys that you like, then 1007 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 4: go right ahead. Strain that cap as much as you can, 1008 00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,400 Speaker 4: but you're not going to be able to put a 1009 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,440 Speaker 4: viable competing team around him. 1010 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:02,399 Speaker 3: And the well, you know, you wonder if they're how 1011 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 3: I mean, that's a team prior to last season. I 1012 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 3: think this it's up there with like thirty six regular 1013 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:11,760 Speaker 3: season wins. 1014 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,800 Speaker 2: I think the Chiefs were the only team that had more. 1015 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 3: And like prior to last year, the thirty six regular 1016 00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:19,960 Speaker 3: season wins at the Cowboys that had in the last 1017 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 3: three years twelve and five total and five twelve and 1018 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:24,680 Speaker 3: five and then for five and twelve last year might 1019 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 3: without uh Mike McCarthy's last season, but that to the 1020 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:29,880 Speaker 3: point the ross was talented. 1021 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and even. 1022 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:38,840 Speaker 4: Which is a more glaring thing, the inexperience of the 1023 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:43,560 Speaker 4: new head coach, like, we don't know what this iteration 1024 00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:48,400 Speaker 4: of the Cowboys will look like. So going into a 1025 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 4: season or into training camp with the Micah Parsons thing 1026 00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:56,960 Speaker 4: hanging over, a new regime taking over, who are the 1027 00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys and what are they aspiring to be? 1028 00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:02,760 Speaker 2: Well, the good thing that we know is that Jerry 1029 00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:07,760 Speaker 2: really took his time and really evaluated. 1030 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 3: A ton of possible prospects to go ahead and lock 1031 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:12,200 Speaker 3: up that head coaching job. 1032 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,480 Speaker 2: To make sure he really vetted everybody. 1033 00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 3: You know, he left out of his office, knocked on 1034 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 3: the head coach's door that Mike McCarthy had just left 1035 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,759 Speaker 3: and said, oh, he's not there anymore, locked the next door, 1036 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:25,879 Speaker 3: and then one door down and said, hey, Shoddy. 1037 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 2: What are you doing next year?

However, the fact remains, 1318 01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:34,920 Speaker 3: I did letter in at three or four years in 1319 01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:38,600 Speaker 3: high school, lettered in two sports, one of you know, 1320 01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:41,920 Speaker 3: obviously lettered in track my sophomore year. So I'm sure 1321 01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 3: that Ian, your letter jacket still fits right. 1322 01:09:45,960 --> 01:09:50,679 Speaker 9: No, No, I was not a varsity track or basketball athlete. 1323 01:09:50,720 --> 01:09:53,400 Speaker 9: I was a sailor actually all throughout high school sail 1324 01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:55,240 Speaker 9: what now, Yeah, competitive sailing? 1325 01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:57,120 Speaker 2: Where did you go to high school? 1326 01:09:57,680 --> 01:10:01,519 Speaker 9: Northern California, San Francisco Bay. There did a lot of 1327 01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:02,280 Speaker 9: sailing up there. 1328 01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:06,760 Speaker 2: Okay, a competitive sailor. That is something I've never heard of. 1329 01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:11,200 Speaker 2: How was it? How did that? How'd that go? Fun? 1330 01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:11,960 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1331 01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:14,040 Speaker 9: I haven't done it in a while now because it's uh, 1332 01:10:14,600 --> 01:10:17,280 Speaker 9: not something I felt I wanted to go or maybe 1333 01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:18,400 Speaker 9: even could have gone pro in. 1334 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:20,000 Speaker 2: But can you go pro in? 1335 01:10:20,600 --> 01:10:23,480 Speaker 9: There's the America's Cup, there's the Olympics, there's. 1336 01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:26,439 Speaker 3: There's yeah, like a random you'll see it every so 1337 01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:30,320 Speaker 3: often June July. You turn on ESPN and there's people rowing. 1338 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,680 Speaker 3: I assume they're professional, But is there like, is there 1339 01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 3: a pro rowing league? 1340 01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:35,560 Speaker 9: No? 1341 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:36,080 Speaker 2: Is there? 1342 01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 9: Is it actually recently? I think they did not. I 1343 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,560 Speaker 9: don't know, you know what, I don't know. 1344 01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:43,120 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1345 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,360 Speaker 9: Maybe it is lucrative, maybe it's not. But there actually 1346 01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:49,080 Speaker 9: is a sale GP. I think is like a recent 1347 01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:52,200 Speaker 9: a recent development. There's like a league for it now 1348 01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,160 Speaker 9: and there's teams and I think it's by country. 1349 01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:59,320 Speaker 2: Have you uh, oh, this might end badly if they 1350 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:01,679 Speaker 2: don't know what happened to me. Have you heard about 1351 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:04,639 Speaker 2: these people that tried to row across the Pacific Ocean? 1352 01:11:05,960 --> 01:11:08,919 Speaker 9: I am not They're not done a lot of rowing myself, 1353 01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:14,760 Speaker 9: but I've heard it's super taxing physically, so across the 1354 01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:16,120 Speaker 9: Pacific Ocean. Yeah, I don't know. 1355 01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:20,240 Speaker 2: Yes, this these the McLean Brothers. 1356 01:11:21,080 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 3: They are rolling across the Pacific Ocean to raise money 1357 01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:27,240 Speaker 3: for clean water, and you could track where they are 1358 01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:31,600 Speaker 3: and right now they are they're trying to get to 1359 01:11:31,680 --> 01:11:34,720 Speaker 3: Australia and they're a lot closer to Australia than they 1360 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:35,920 Speaker 3: are the last time I saw them. 1361 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:39,320 Speaker 2: But yeah, look, so they started in South America. 1362 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:43,960 Speaker 3: Oh wow, and what is that Peru? Probably yeah, all right, 1363 01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:48,000 Speaker 3: near Peru, Ecuador. I don't know, forgive me, but you 1364 01:11:48,120 --> 01:11:53,200 Speaker 3: look and they literally have rowed across the globe. So 1365 01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:58,759 Speaker 3: now they are near wherever Port Villa in the Pacific Ocean. 1366 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:01,200 Speaker 3: But they are a lot closer to Australia than it 1367 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 3: used to be. But like these people, they can't sleep. 1368 01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,360 Speaker 3: You know, there's like four people on this boat. They've 1369 01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:07,000 Speaker 3: got to sleep. 1370 01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:09,400 Speaker 2: No, but like they sleep for like the uh I 1371 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:09,920 Speaker 2: listened to. 1372 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:13,280 Speaker 3: Ryan Roussillo did a like an in depth podcast you 1373 01:12:13,320 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 3: could if you google it, did the Dune hits on 1374 01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:18,360 Speaker 3: Good Morning American stuff. They sleep in ships, but they 1375 01:12:18,439 --> 01:12:20,080 Speaker 3: can only sleep for like an hour at a time 1376 01:12:20,120 --> 01:12:21,680 Speaker 3: because they're in this rowboat. They're in the middle of 1377 01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:24,640 Speaker 3: the Pacific Ocean. So it's like, you know, you know, 1378 01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:26,439 Speaker 3: I was sleeping then I hit my head on the 1379 01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:30,799 Speaker 3: ceiling because a wave came. You know, that sounds awful. 1380 01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:33,679 Speaker 3: I mean it doesn't sound like something I'd. 1381 01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:34,719 Speaker 2: Like to do. That sounds awful. 1382 01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:37,640 Speaker 9: Yes, good car. 1383 01:12:37,760 --> 01:12:41,519 Speaker 2: I respect the calls, but I'm gonna have to I'll 1384 01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:43,680 Speaker 2: meet you all over there. Yeah, you know. 1385 01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:47,000 Speaker 3: It kind of reminds me of my thought process generally, 1386 01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:49,800 Speaker 3: when I can choose between a non stop or connecting flight. 1387 01:12:50,360 --> 01:12:52,200 Speaker 3: It's like, when I'm in that connection, would I have 1388 01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:54,920 Speaker 3: paid the difference to skip this? If I'm like I'm 1389 01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:58,639 Speaker 3: sitting in that Charlotte Airport, but I paid seventy five 1390 01:12:58,720 --> 01:13:00,800 Speaker 3: dollars to just be where I want to go, I 1391 01:13:00,840 --> 01:13:02,759 Speaker 3: would have paid a whole lot more than CENTI finalis 1392 01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:06,080 Speaker 3: to not do this. But speaking of paying for what 1393 01:13:06,200 --> 01:13:09,000 Speaker 3: you want, the Washington commanders seem that they do not 1394 01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:11,360 Speaker 3: want to pay Terry McLaurin what he wants. And we 1395 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:13,680 Speaker 3: have these conversations all the time, Oh is he a 1396 01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:17,519 Speaker 3: top five receiver? He's your top ten receiver. We're still 1397 01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:21,960 Speaker 3: workshopping the name of this thing, maybe spin the Wheel, 1398 01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:26,600 Speaker 3: Miss three box, whatever, But we're gonna go through the 1399 01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:30,880 Speaker 3: wide receivers in the NFL and figure out exactly where 1400 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,640 Speaker 3: Scary Terry should be and if that money lines up, 1401 01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:39,760 Speaker 3: we'll do that.

See what 1417 01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:22,760 Speaker 4: I've done there. 1418 01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:29,680 Speaker 3: And we look at Dallas as an organization that, for 1419 01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:33,280 Speaker 3: whatever reason, I'll call it dysfunctional is. 1420 01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:35,439 Speaker 2: A pretty good read. I think you know what I'm saying. 1421 01:14:35,439 --> 01:14:41,960 Speaker 2: They don't necessarily operate in the most efficient way historically. 1422 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:46,439 Speaker 3: Another team in that division that's also been true of 1423 01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:50,280 Speaker 3: is the Washington Commanders, who are now in this debate 1424 01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:53,760 Speaker 3: with Terry McLaurin. Are we sure that you think that 1425 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:57,720 Speaker 3: the Washington Commanders have turned a corner in like their organization, 1426 01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:00,479 Speaker 3: because I know Jadon Daniels was really good last year, 1427 01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:03,040 Speaker 3: and I know there's a lot of conversation about it, 1428 01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:05,080 Speaker 3: but you got to make this move for Deebo and 1429 01:15:05,160 --> 01:15:07,240 Speaker 3: now your wide receiver one from last year is not happy. 1430 01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:10,600 Speaker 4: Well I get that, but they have definitely turned the 1431 01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:13,360 Speaker 4: corner when when you look at new ownership and they 1432 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:18,040 Speaker 4: came in right away, brought in a stable coaching staff. 1433 01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:24,479 Speaker 4: They absolutely hit on the draft and found themselves in 1434 01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:28,840 Speaker 4: the NFC Championship game running up against the division rival. 1435 01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:29,639 Speaker 2: I think. 1436 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:36,000 Speaker 4: The fact that you know so much was put on 1437 01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:40,760 Speaker 4: Jayden Daniel's plate and all he did was is really 1438 01:15:40,880 --> 01:15:45,720 Speaker 4: excel and show why he is one of the top 1439 01:15:45,840 --> 01:15:49,320 Speaker 4: young prospects or the top young players in the league. 1440 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:55,720 Speaker 4: You know, as crazy as it seems, you know their 1441 01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:59,840 Speaker 4: trajectory and their upside is enormous. Now the cliff on 1442 01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:04,320 Speaker 4: the other side of that upside is also prevalent. It 1443 01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:10,120 Speaker 4: likens to c J Stroud and Houston a year prior. 1444 01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:15,240 Speaker 4: But as bad a year as CJ and the Texans had, 1445 01:16:15,439 --> 01:16:19,240 Speaker 4: they still made it the exact same place they did 1446 01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:23,360 Speaker 4: the second round of the playoffs and so and that's 1447 01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:26,640 Speaker 4: what all their weapons being hurt. So in terms of 1448 01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 4: our Washington are the commanders the real deal. I believe 1449 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:33,720 Speaker 4: they're the real deal because I believe Jayden Daniels his 1450 01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:37,720 Speaker 4: approach to the game is the real deal. And he's 1451 01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:42,440 Speaker 4: shown nothing but leadership as a you know, rookie quarterback. 1452 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 4: And normally when you get that level of leadership out 1453 01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:51,679 Speaker 4: the gate, I think Andrew Luck, I think even Russell Wilson. 1454 01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:55,360 Speaker 4: When you look at that level of leadership out the 1455 01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:59,720 Speaker 4: gate as a rookie and that level of success, you 1456 01:16:59,800 --> 01:17:04,880 Speaker 4: know that that kind of paves the way for expectations. 1457 01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:08,000 Speaker 4: Now he's coming into the season with higher expectations, but 1458 01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:10,559 Speaker 4: I don't think any of the expectations for him are 1459 01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:13,280 Speaker 4: higher than what he was able to put on himself 1460 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,000 Speaker 4: when he was coming out. 1461 01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:17,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think too. You look at his mindset, it 1462 01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:18,439 Speaker 2: seems to be. 1463 01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:22,800 Speaker 3: Right as what you'd like it to be. And if 1464 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:25,960 Speaker 3: it's not, I don't mean it's kind of funny. But 1465 01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:28,040 Speaker 3: his mom is right there to get him right back, 1466 01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:30,639 Speaker 3: and we'll get him back in line. I can tell 1467 01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:30,840 Speaker 3: you that. 1468 01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:32,120 Speaker 2: But let's go ahead and do this. 1469 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:35,120 Speaker 3: I personally think that, like top five list, a little 1470 01:17:35,120 --> 01:17:38,479 Speaker 3: overrated at this point.

So all of a sudden, I just get 1641 01:26:17,120 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 3: a big gulp of water, so I realize, you know, 1642 01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:22,799 Speaker 3: first of all. 1643 01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:24,240 Speaker 2: Like who is this guy? Because now I have to 1644 01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:26,320 Speaker 2: kill him? And I was like, oh, he's drowning. 1645 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:30,920 Speaker 3: So I picked this running backsized man up out the 1646 01:26:31,080 --> 01:26:34,560 Speaker 3: water and put him on this rock and I go 1647 01:26:34,760 --> 01:26:35,360 Speaker 3: up and I. 1648 01:26:35,479 --> 01:26:35,920 Speaker 2: Tell you what. 1649 01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:38,920 Speaker 3: He was African of some sort and didn't speak the 1650 01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,719 Speaker 3: best English. And that's the best case for everybody, because 1651 01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:46,760 Speaker 3: I cussed him out, so crazy boy, What. 1652 01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:48,920 Speaker 2: Did I say? Listen?

He's just oh, you know, no. 1654 01:26:52,320 --> 01:26:54,080 Speaker 3: I let it have in Spanish a little bit too, 1655 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:56,120 Speaker 3: because I was he said, oh no, no, no, kind 1656 01:26:56,160 --> 01:26:58,360 Speaker 3: of put his hands up like this. I was like, 1657 01:26:58,439 --> 01:27:02,080 Speaker 3: you bleep and bleep you because he didn't have on 1658 01:27:02,200 --> 01:27:05,120 Speaker 3: a life jacket, and the life jackets was two dollars 1659 01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:08,479 Speaker 3: at the top and man, the last day I said, 1660 01:27:08,479 --> 01:27:11,080 Speaker 3: he walked past, and I said, no, you don't need. 1661 01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:13,000 Speaker 2: To walk past these life jackets no more. You need 1662 01:27:13,080 --> 01:27:15,559 Speaker 2: to buy one. Just lab with you forever. 1663 01:27:15,800 --> 01:27:19,120 Speaker 9: Dipping your toes into other languages while you're cussing them 1664 01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:20,760 Speaker 9: out is so funny, bro. 1665 01:27:20,840 --> 01:27:22,160 Speaker 2: Especially this guy. I'd been there a few day. 1666 01:27:22,680 --> 01:27:25,479 Speaker 3: I'm really really pretty good at Spanish, especially if I've 1667 01:27:25,520 --> 01:27:28,120 Speaker 3: been there for Yeah, I was letting them have it all. 1668 01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:28,599 Speaker 2: Types of ways. 1669 01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:31,080 Speaker 10: That's pretty valid, though, Like I would wear a life 1670 01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:33,760 Speaker 10: jacket a friend of the dr and this is that's 1671 01:27:34,479 --> 01:27:35,200 Speaker 10: that's a no brainer. 1672 01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:37,680 Speaker 3: They saved my life though, I tell you because I 1673 01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:40,840 Speaker 3: if I, if I hadn't had something to bring me 1674 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:42,879 Speaker 3: right back up, I don't. 1675 01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:44,960 Speaker 2: Know if I would have done it, and we might 1676 01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:51,560 Speaker 2: not have been here today. But I am and I 1677 01:27:51,680 --> 01:27:54,400 Speaker 2: don't look like what I've been through, and still I rise. 1678 01:27:56,400 --> 01:27:58,120 Speaker 3: What I was thinking about that it makes me think 1679 01:27:58,200 --> 01:28:01,240 Speaker 3: of the phrase that is is very There's a lot 1680 01:28:01,280 --> 01:28:04,560 Speaker 3: of stupid phrases in football. One of the ones I 1681 01:28:04,680 --> 01:28:08,439 Speaker 3: find to be the stupidest is drinking out of a 1682 01:28:08,520 --> 01:28:09,200 Speaker 3: fire hose. 1683 01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:12,200 Speaker 2: It's like, you know, we're just gonna. 1684 01:28:11,960 --> 01:28:13,960 Speaker 3: Have him drinking out of a fire hose in training camp. 1685 01:28:14,960 --> 01:28:18,800 Speaker 3: It's like, I conceptually I don't get with that. Like 1686 01:28:18,880 --> 01:28:20,799 Speaker 3: I get it we're gonna overload with information. 1687 01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:23,000 Speaker 9: I think it's a good effect of saying gets the 1688 01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:24,439 Speaker 9: point across of what you're trying to say. 1689 01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:29,840 Speaker 3: But I just visibly see Ben Johnson opening up a 1690 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:33,400 Speaker 3: fire hose and Caleb Williams just sitting there like, and 1691 01:28:33,439 --> 01:28:35,760 Speaker 3: it's like, maybe that's why Caleb got his haircut, so 1692 01:28:35,880 --> 01:28:37,720 Speaker 3: that way, just with the water, would you know he'd 1693 01:28:37,720 --> 01:28:41,519 Speaker 3: be more streamlined. But anyway, some of these reports out 1694 01:28:41,520 --> 01:28:44,120 Speaker 3: of Bears camp, right, they want a Bears camp. Ben 1695 01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:46,760 Speaker 3: Jonson gives the offense the boot off the field, right, 1696 01:28:47,560 --> 01:28:50,640 Speaker 3: and happens all the time, and so you hear all 1697 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:56,080 Speaker 3: these back and forth today. If you have any level 1698 01:28:56,120 --> 01:28:59,320 Speaker 3: of social media, the Caleb clickbait is out of control, 1699 01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:03,960 Speaker 3: but the lips are such that it is kind of validated. 1700 01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:06,280 Speaker 3: It looks rough. I'll just say that, it looks. It 1701 01:29:06,360 --> 01:29:09,920 Speaker 3: does not look like everything is up to snuff. Now 1702 01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:12,560 Speaker 3: it is August third, So the benefit is they have 1703 01:29:12,680 --> 01:29:15,160 Speaker 3: at least three or four weeks before it has to 1704 01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 3: be up to snuff, and they're playing in games that matter. 1705 01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:23,160 Speaker 3: But I wanted to hear from Ben Johnson after today's 1706 01:29:24,360 --> 01:29:28,080 Speaker 3: Bears practice, which was family day, so there was a 1707 01:29:28,200 --> 01:29:30,519 Speaker 3: ton only the reasons I say that is there was 1708 01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:33,160 Speaker 3: a ton more cameras there than normal they like at 1709 01:29:33,200 --> 01:29:37,760 Speaker 3: your average practice, saw a lot of Caleb Williams' mistakes. 1710 01:29:37,840 --> 01:29:40,280 Speaker 2: Quote unquote. This is what Ben Johnson had to say 1711 01:29:40,720 --> 01:29:43,360 Speaker 2: about this his team in general after the practice. 1712 01:29:43,479 --> 01:29:45,680 Speaker 15: Execution of the play wasn't what we wanted it to be. 1713 01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:47,960 Speaker 15: And I mean it's it's a credit to the defense. 1714 01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:50,240 Speaker 15: I mean they came out and they can kicked the 1715 01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:54,200 Speaker 15: offense's rear in that drill. So that's what showed up 1716 01:29:54,200 --> 01:29:54,360 Speaker 15: to me. 1717 01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:55,439 Speaker 2: They wanted a little. 1718 01:29:55,240 --> 01:29:59,000 Speaker 3: Bit more in the drill he's talking about. The offense 1719 01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:02,120 Speaker 3: was backed up in their own territory deep, deep, deep. 1720 01:30:03,680 --> 01:30:05,840 Speaker 3: I don't know exactly what yard line, but it was 1721 01:30:05,920 --> 01:30:08,599 Speaker 3: close enough to where the drill resulted in two safeties 1722 01:30:08,640 --> 01:30:12,680 Speaker 3: in an interception like that was the end result of 1723 01:30:12,800 --> 01:30:16,240 Speaker 3: what the drill. So you pull your offense off the 1724 01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:17,080 Speaker 3: field day one. 1725 01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:21,440 Speaker 2: I get that. You'll say you do it all. I'm evaluating. 1726 01:30:21,479 --> 01:30:23,439 Speaker 2: I'm just taking it all in from Ben Johnson. 1727 01:30:23,439 --> 01:30:25,559 Speaker 3: I'm trying to drink all of what the fire Hose 1728 01:30:25,600 --> 01:30:29,000 Speaker 3: has to offer from these press conferences. But what do 1729 01:30:29,120 --> 01:30:32,479 Speaker 3: you expect to see from first year head coach Ben 1730 01:30:32,560 --> 01:30:37,439 Speaker 3: Johnson's second year quarterback Caleb Williams, especially considering some of 1731 01:30:37,520 --> 01:30:39,879 Speaker 3: what first year head coach has said, is that basically 1732 01:30:40,040 --> 01:30:42,479 Speaker 3: this is first year for quarterback two, even though he 1733 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:44,519 Speaker 3: played the first year of his career. 1734 01:30:44,680 --> 01:30:45,760 Speaker 2: In terms of the offense and. 1735 01:30:45,760 --> 01:30:50,040 Speaker 4: Everything, it's a learning process. They're learning each other and 1736 01:30:50,120 --> 01:30:53,240 Speaker 4: it's just not for Caleb. It's mostly centered around Caleb 1737 01:30:53,280 --> 01:30:55,960 Speaker 4: Williams because he is the face of the franchise, but 1738 01:30:56,120 --> 01:31:00,920 Speaker 4: it's also about the entire team they're trying to figure 1739 01:31:00,960 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 4: out Ben Johnson. Ben Johnson is trying to come in 1740 01:31:04,280 --> 01:31:07,320 Speaker 4: and be a part of the change of culture that 1741 01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:10,040 Speaker 4: needs to happen, similar to what Dan Campbell was able 1742 01:31:10,120 --> 01:31:12,400 Speaker 4: to do in Detroit and Ben Johnson being on that 1743 01:31:12,520 --> 01:31:16,360 Speaker 4: staff and understanding what work goes into that and how 1744 01:31:16,479 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 4: difficult that is. 1745 01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:19,080 Speaker 2: You got to remember. 1746 01:31:20,800 --> 01:31:24,400 Speaker 4: Dan Campbell's first year, they were, you know, vying for 1747 01:31:24,560 --> 01:31:27,600 Speaker 4: the first picking the three I think was picking the draft. 1748 01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:30,200 Speaker 3: Three and thirty to the end of it the first year, 1749 01:31:30,320 --> 01:31:32,439 Speaker 3: and then the second year was that nine and eight 1750 01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:35,400 Speaker 3: season where they didn't qualify for the playoffs. But that 1751 01:31:35,560 --> 01:31:38,839 Speaker 3: was the famous Rogers and Cobb walking off of Flambeau 1752 01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:40,160 Speaker 3: Field thinking this may be the. 1753 01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:42,519 Speaker 2: Last time spoiler alert, It wasn't for either. 1754 01:31:42,800 --> 01:31:48,679 Speaker 4: And so I think Ben knows it's going to take 1755 01:31:48,760 --> 01:31:51,400 Speaker 4: some time now. What he doesn't want to do is 1756 01:31:51,479 --> 01:31:55,680 Speaker 4: get into the situation that Caleb was in last year 1757 01:31:55,720 --> 01:31:58,639 Speaker 4: when they drafted him. They were talking playoffs and a shot, 1758 01:31:58,800 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 4: real shot, and they just didn't have things in place 1759 01:32:02,560 --> 01:32:06,000 Speaker 4: as a team to even warrant that. There's so many 1760 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:09,800 Speaker 4: holes all over the place and the team, starting with 1761 01:32:09,920 --> 01:32:12,680 Speaker 4: the leadership. Ben is just coming in and trying to 1762 01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:17,599 Speaker 4: get his quarterback to be the best version of himself 1763 01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:20,800 Speaker 4: in year two and then you'll go from there. Right, 1764 01:32:20,960 --> 01:32:25,640 Speaker 4: So there is a process here, and it's difficult to 1765 01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:28,599 Speaker 4: change regime regimes like that and then have your young 1766 01:32:28,720 --> 01:32:31,599 Speaker 4: quarterback just hit the ground running. 1767 01:32:31,640 --> 01:32:32,760 Speaker 2: Now they will be better. 1768 01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:37,080 Speaker 4: It will be better clock management, time management, better play calls. 1769 01:32:37,960 --> 01:32:43,000 Speaker 4: But the totality of how the team does just doesn't 1770 01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:46,560 Speaker 4: fall on Ben. It's also about that defense. And just 1771 01:32:46,680 --> 01:32:49,400 Speaker 4: like he said, yeah, offense sucked, but the defense had 1772 01:32:49,439 --> 01:32:51,600 Speaker 4: a great period and that's the thing you have to 1773 01:32:51,880 --> 01:32:55,799 Speaker 4: understand as a head coach in practice and training camp practice. 1774 01:32:56,560 --> 01:32:59,080 Speaker 4: If your offense isn't doing what they're supposed to do, 1775 01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:03,519 Speaker 4: that means your defense is one step ahead of them. 1776 01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:06,640 Speaker 4: And as you're building this team to go compete with 1777 01:33:06,760 --> 01:33:10,240 Speaker 4: other teams, that's a positive within the negative all at 1778 01:33:10,280 --> 01:33:10,880 Speaker 4: the same time. 1779 01:33:11,280 --> 01:33:14,439 Speaker 3: And he did actually make reference to that point later 1780 01:33:14,520 --> 01:33:17,080 Speaker 3: on in the press conference, saying that you kind of 1781 01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:19,400 Speaker 3: want it to be that way. One day the offense wins, 1782 01:33:19,439 --> 01:33:22,040 Speaker 3: one day the defense wins. That's the mark of a 1783 01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:26,920 Speaker 3: good team. I do find it fascinating that this is 1784 01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:30,560 Speaker 3: the first time that Ben Johnson. I can't get this 1785 01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:31,800 Speaker 3: out of my head, and I think about it every 1786 01:33:31,840 --> 01:33:36,040 Speaker 3: offseason as we have the turnover that we have, feels 1787 01:33:36,080 --> 01:33:39,799 Speaker 3: like to me, the defensive coordinator's job. Stop the offense, 1788 01:33:39,960 --> 01:33:44,080 Speaker 3: get off the field, limit the penalties, good third down rate, 1789 01:33:44,360 --> 01:33:46,519 Speaker 3: try to force turn put your players in positions to 1790 01:33:46,600 --> 01:33:47,320 Speaker 3: force turnovers. 1791 01:33:47,439 --> 01:33:47,559 Speaker 2: Right. 1792 01:33:47,960 --> 01:33:50,559 Speaker 3: That's basically if you were looking at the job description 1793 01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:52,920 Speaker 3: on indeed dot com for a defensive coordinator, that's what 1794 01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:57,240 Speaker 3: it would be. Offensive coordinator, positive plays, no backwards plays. 1795 01:33:57,439 --> 01:33:59,800 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, Get out of bad first, 1796 01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:03,360 Speaker 3: how quickly can you turn first and fifteen into second 1797 01:34:03,400 --> 01:34:04,840 Speaker 3: and seven right consistently? 1798 01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:05,320 Speaker 2: In that? 1799 01:34:05,680 --> 01:34:08,280 Speaker 3: How often are you avoiding first in fifteen or second 1800 01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:12,200 Speaker 3: and fifteen scoring points, getting first down, staying on the 1801 01:34:12,280 --> 01:34:18,920 Speaker 3: field right. The head coach's job is the only job 1802 01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:20,519 Speaker 3: that's only one word, and it's win. 1803 01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:22,599 Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm saying? 1804 01:34:22,600 --> 01:34:24,840 Speaker 3: That's the only person who has to answer for the 1805 01:34:24,920 --> 01:34:27,439 Speaker 3: wins and the losses as the head coach. It's the 1806 01:34:27,600 --> 01:34:30,880 Speaker 3: only person ultimately who gets these wins and losses on 1807 01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:31,599 Speaker 3: their resume? 1808 01:34:32,280 --> 01:34:35,479 Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean? And when? How win? 1809 01:34:35,720 --> 01:34:39,400 Speaker 3: However, whether you win three to nothing, If you win 1810 01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:43,040 Speaker 3: a seventeen hundred games at a score of three to 1811 01:34:43,120 --> 01:34:45,200 Speaker 3: nothing every game, congratulations, you were the best. 1812 01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:46,559 Speaker 2: Coach of all time, all the fame. Right. 1813 01:34:46,680 --> 01:34:49,160 Speaker 3: If you win fifty seventeen hundred games fifteen to nothing, 1814 01:34:49,240 --> 01:34:52,840 Speaker 3: congratulations are fifty to forty nine, Congratulations, best coach of 1815 01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:53,280 Speaker 3: all time? 1816 01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:55,880 Speaker 2: Because it's about winning you And that's kind of the 1817 01:34:55,920 --> 01:34:57,160 Speaker 2: beauty of this in. 1818 01:34:57,240 --> 01:34:59,639 Speaker 3: This salary cap league and one that we don't really 1819 01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:03,320 Speaker 3: see and other sports, ironically enough, that have more salary 1820 01:35:03,360 --> 01:35:07,720 Speaker 3: cap leeway, is, however, the head coach thinks is the 1821 01:35:07,800 --> 01:35:10,400 Speaker 3: best way to win is generally what you see on 1822 01:35:10,479 --> 01:35:12,760 Speaker 3: the field, right, Like you know, like you see and 1823 01:35:12,800 --> 01:35:14,800 Speaker 3: you see all different types. Some teams run the ball more, 1824 01:35:14,920 --> 01:35:17,960 Speaker 3: some teams throw the ball more. Some teams are value 1825 01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:20,240 Speaker 3: the defensive side of the ball, Moore, somethings value the 1826 01:35:20,280 --> 01:35:21,200 Speaker 3: offensive side of the ball. 1827 01:35:21,280 --> 01:35:21,479 Speaker 9: Moore. 1828 01:35:22,800 --> 01:35:25,200 Speaker 2: I just want to remember, like we. 1829 01:35:25,280 --> 01:35:28,800 Speaker 3: Talked about this earlier, the Eagles playing the Commanders in 1830 01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:31,400 Speaker 3: the NFC Championship game and being like, you know, the 1831 01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:35,679 Speaker 3: Commanders got to that NFC Championship game. I always wonder 1832 01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:37,920 Speaker 3: what it's gonna be like when Ben Johnson has to 1833 01:35:38,040 --> 01:35:43,479 Speaker 3: answer for a game in which where a right tackle 1834 01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:48,400 Speaker 3: drops a first down or a wide receiver throws an interception, 1835 01:35:49,640 --> 01:35:52,479 Speaker 3: because those are the types of things that happened to 1836 01:35:52,520 --> 01:35:57,320 Speaker 3: the Lions under Ben Johnson that he didn't under Dan Campbell. 1837 01:35:57,360 --> 01:36:01,000 Speaker 3: I should say that Dan Campbell was the guy responsible 1838 01:36:01,040 --> 01:36:03,880 Speaker 3: for answering, but Dan Campbell was not the guy calling 1839 01:36:03,960 --> 01:36:04,360 Speaker 3: that play. 1840 01:36:05,479 --> 01:36:08,120 Speaker 2: I want to I just and I'm not Maybe it'll 1841 01:36:08,160 --> 01:36:10,320 Speaker 2: be nothing, maybe it'll be everything. 1842 01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:14,240 Speaker 3: But especially for a team that just felt like they 1843 01:36:14,400 --> 01:36:19,960 Speaker 3: had accountability issues out of their last head coach, I 1844 01:36:20,120 --> 01:36:24,479 Speaker 3: just we're in that honeymoon stage. Now, I just I 1845 01:36:24,560 --> 01:36:27,880 Speaker 3: am excited for that moment to happen, just to see 1846 01:36:27,920 --> 01:36:28,719 Speaker 3: how he reacts. 1847 01:36:30,840 --> 01:36:34,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's one of those situations where when you 1848 01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:37,920 Speaker 4: have coaches who are coordinators, are terrific coordinators, and they 1849 01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:40,639 Speaker 4: become head coaches, all. 1850 01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:41,599 Speaker 2: Eyes are on them as well. 1851 01:36:43,760 --> 01:36:49,120 Speaker 4: Like you said, every time something happens, are you know 1852 01:36:50,280 --> 01:36:53,519 Speaker 4: something bad happens, you lose a close game that the 1853 01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:58,800 Speaker 4: scrutiny in the spotlight is on you. Right, as a coordinator, 1854 01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:02,280 Speaker 4: you talk to the head coach, the head coach goes 1855 01:37:02,320 --> 01:37:03,799 Speaker 4: out and takes the bullets. 1856 01:37:04,280 --> 01:37:07,000 Speaker 2: Yep, Now you're the shield. 1857 01:37:07,920 --> 01:37:10,200 Speaker 4: Do you have to go out and you're have Do 1858 01:37:10,280 --> 01:37:14,200 Speaker 4: you have to be accountable for what happened happens on 1859 01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:16,360 Speaker 4: the on the field wins and losses? 1860 01:37:16,600 --> 01:37:19,080 Speaker 2: Right? You don't want to have a whole year of 1861 01:37:19,200 --> 01:37:21,519 Speaker 2: saying I got to prepare the guys better. It's on me. 1862 01:37:21,720 --> 01:37:24,519 Speaker 4: Like you don't want to go down that road as 1863 01:37:24,600 --> 01:37:27,519 Speaker 4: a as a young, you know, brand new head coach, 1864 01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:31,000 Speaker 4: but you also want to give yourself some leeway. And 1865 01:37:31,120 --> 01:37:34,679 Speaker 4: I know that's you know, an unpopular thing to say 1866 01:37:35,120 --> 01:37:39,080 Speaker 4: in a win now league, but you know it takes 1867 01:37:39,120 --> 01:37:43,439 Speaker 4: a minute to change the culture. I think Caleb Williams 1868 01:37:43,479 --> 01:37:46,400 Speaker 4: has the talent. I think Ben Jones is an excellent 1869 01:37:46,600 --> 01:37:51,840 Speaker 4: offensive coordinator. Is he an excellent head coach? I guess 1870 01:37:51,880 --> 01:37:52,680 Speaker 4: we're gonna find out. 1871 01:37:53,200 --> 01:37:55,280 Speaker 2: We absolutely will find out. 1872 01:37:55,320 --> 01:37:59,639 Speaker 3: And coming up next talking about messing around and finding 1873 01:37:59,680 --> 01:38:04,120 Speaker 3: out one NFL owner just might have met his match. 1874 01:38:04,400 --> 01:38:06,360 Speaker 3: We'll get to that in just a minute. Martin Wis's 1875 01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:12,479 Speaker 3: Ephram Saloon Fox Sports Radio. They say it's never been 1876 01:38:12,560 --> 01:38:15,720 Speaker 3: done before. Maybe that's because nobody ever really tried it. 1877 01:38:16,240 --> 01:38:17,400 Speaker 2: They missed any of today's show. 1878 01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:19,639 Speaker 3: You want to catch the podcast to search Fox Sports 1879 01:38:19,760 --> 01:38:22,519 Speaker 3: Radio wherever you get those podcasts.

You can even provide a 1882 01:38:28,520 --> 01:38:31,160 Speaker 3: review again just hurts Fox Sports Radio wherever you get 1883 01:38:31,160 --> 01:38:34,160 Speaker 3: your podcast, and you'll find today's show posted right after 1884 01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:35,679 Speaker 3: we get off of the air. 1885 01:38:36,360 --> 01:38:36,799 Speaker 2: Ephraim. 1886 01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:42,800 Speaker 3: I saw reports yesterday out of Jacksonville about their scrimmage 1887 01:38:43,400 --> 01:38:47,040 Speaker 3: in which you saw the very honestly kind of reminded 1888 01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:49,920 Speaker 3: me of watching high school football practices in which you 1889 01:38:50,040 --> 01:38:55,160 Speaker 3: saw the starting wide receiver change his jersey and then 1890 01:38:55,280 --> 01:38:58,759 Speaker 3: go to the other side. Of the field and play defense. 1891 01:38:58,840 --> 01:38:58,960 Speaker 2: Now. 1892 01:38:59,080 --> 01:39:02,280 Speaker 3: Deon Sanders said that the way that the Jacksonville Jaguars 1893 01:39:02,920 --> 01:39:05,479 Speaker 3: did this is also analogous to the way that they 1894 01:39:05,560 --> 01:39:07,960 Speaker 3: did at Colorado, where you had your number one offense 1895 01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:11,040 Speaker 3: practice against your number two defense, your number two offense 1896 01:39:11,120 --> 01:39:14,160 Speaker 3: practice against your number one defense. So therefore, Travis Hunter 1897 01:39:14,280 --> 01:39:17,760 Speaker 3: could be essentially in the right place at the same time, 1898 01:39:17,800 --> 01:39:20,400 Speaker 3: because as talented as he is, I don't think he's 1899 01:39:20,400 --> 01:39:22,320 Speaker 3: found a way to be in the same place at 1900 01:39:22,360 --> 01:39:24,960 Speaker 3: the exact same time. What do you think of the 1901 01:39:25,120 --> 01:39:28,000 Speaker 3: plan so far that the Jaguars have for Travis Hunter 1902 01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:31,200 Speaker 3: to implement him into this team, because you can't say 1903 01:39:31,280 --> 01:39:33,000 Speaker 3: him meant to the offense or the defense. 1904 01:39:33,040 --> 01:39:35,240 Speaker 2: It's and the defense. I think it's great. I think 1905 01:39:37,240 --> 01:39:42,440 Speaker 2: just to steal from another sport pitching and hidden. 1906 01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:48,080 Speaker 4: Show Hey and the Dodgers and what the Angels show, Hey, 1907 01:39:48,160 --> 01:39:50,160 Speaker 4: showing the league that you know, I can pitch and 1908 01:39:50,240 --> 01:39:55,200 Speaker 4: I can hit, even though it's frowned upon or are 1909 01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:58,040 Speaker 4: you know, after you become a pitcher, then you specialize 1910 01:39:58,080 --> 01:40:01,120 Speaker 4: in pitching and not so much at the play. But 1911 01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:04,040 Speaker 4: I love the fact that this is the evolution of 1912 01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:09,439 Speaker 4: the athlete. Most athletes, especially in pro sports, focus on 1913 01:40:10,160 --> 01:40:13,200 Speaker 4: and football focus on one aspect of the of the game, 1914 01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:17,360 Speaker 4: which is offensive defense. And I think Travis Hunter is 1915 01:40:17,400 --> 01:40:20,040 Speaker 4: a special individual. He's shown us he could do it 1916 01:40:20,160 --> 01:40:25,800 Speaker 4: in college at a high level consistently. And so I think, 1917 01:40:26,560 --> 01:40:29,400 Speaker 4: you know, as the third pick in the draft, you 1918 01:40:29,520 --> 01:40:32,800 Speaker 4: want to maximize that value or at second pick, second 1919 01:40:32,880 --> 01:40:35,240 Speaker 4: or third pick in the draft, you want to maximize 1920 01:40:35,240 --> 01:40:38,639 Speaker 4: that second pick. You want to maximize that value. Uh 1921 01:40:38,920 --> 01:40:41,080 Speaker 4: and and and let him be great, let him be 1922 01:40:41,200 --> 01:40:46,280 Speaker 4: who he is, and that's a dual uh, starting athlete 1923 01:40:46,640 --> 01:40:51,600 Speaker 4: who can who's capable of starting offensively and defensively and 1924 01:40:51,800 --> 01:40:55,439 Speaker 4: both so and until it becomes a problem for him, 1925 01:40:56,280 --> 01:40:59,640 Speaker 4: then I think it's great for them to explore that 1926 01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:03,560 Speaker 4: because that's what he wants to do, especially when you consider, 1927 01:41:04,240 --> 01:41:06,200 Speaker 4: I mean, that's what he wants to do. But I'm 1928 01:41:06,240 --> 01:41:08,920 Speaker 4: not saying, look, a lot of people want to do 1929 01:41:08,960 --> 01:41:11,400 Speaker 4: a lot, you know what I mean, Like, he's got 1930 01:41:11,520 --> 01:41:15,679 Speaker 4: to be great at both to be able to play 1931 01:41:15,760 --> 01:41:17,960 Speaker 4: both at a high level. I'll and I'll honestly be 1932 01:41:18,960 --> 01:41:20,879 Speaker 4: again the same way, I kind of have the curiosity 1933 01:41:20,920 --> 01:41:23,360 Speaker 4: to see how Ben Jonson's gonna respond when his first 1934 01:41:23,400 --> 01:41:24,360 Speaker 4: trick play doesn't work. 1935 01:41:24,680 --> 01:41:26,840 Speaker 3: I want to know how Jacksonville responds when he has 1936 01:41:26,880 --> 01:41:29,080 Speaker 3: a good wide receiver day or a bad cornerback day 1937 01:41:29,439 --> 01:41:32,439 Speaker 3: or vice versa. Right, like he's locked he locked up. 1938 01:41:33,200 --> 01:41:36,519 Speaker 3: You know, Jamar Chase had three catches for twenty seven yards, 1939 01:41:36,920 --> 01:41:40,160 Speaker 3: but he had three drops, or you know, he had 1940 01:41:40,880 --> 01:41:44,519 Speaker 3: seven for seventy seven and two touchdowns but gave up 1941 01:41:44,560 --> 01:41:47,679 Speaker 3: three touchdowns on the other side. Just interested to see 1942 01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:52,120 Speaker 3: how the response is because James Gladstone, who's younger than me, 1943 01:41:52,640 --> 01:41:54,840 Speaker 3: but speaks with the conviction of a man who has 1944 01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:57,360 Speaker 3: had a lot more success than either one of us 1945 01:41:57,400 --> 01:41:59,920 Speaker 3: have had going into his first job as a GA, 1946 01:42:00,439 --> 01:42:03,000 Speaker 3: and I commend him for it. But this guy's talking like, hey, 1947 01:42:03,600 --> 01:42:07,200 Speaker 3: Travis Hunter can change the calculus of football like that, 1948 01:42:07,320 --> 01:42:08,840 Speaker 3: and that's what they said about like a guy like 1949 01:42:08,920 --> 01:42:11,920 Speaker 3: sho hal Tani And to your point, yeah, but like 1950 01:42:14,720 --> 01:42:18,240 Speaker 3: hitting it makes that the violence of football just makes 1951 01:42:18,280 --> 01:42:21,519 Speaker 3: it to me seem so far fetched on its face. 1952 01:42:21,600 --> 01:42:23,200 Speaker 2: But who am I to say somebody can't do it? 1953 01:42:23,400 --> 01:42:26,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think we saw Dion do it in Spurts, 1954 01:42:27,360 --> 01:42:33,280 Speaker 4: but I think athletic wise, and you know, guys aren't 1955 01:42:33,280 --> 01:42:37,080 Speaker 4: taking hilacious hits and stuff like that anymore. I think 1956 01:42:38,200 --> 01:42:42,040 Speaker 4: he's absolutely right. As a GM, you want to try 1957 01:42:42,120 --> 01:42:46,200 Speaker 4: to maximize your player's talent, and if that's on both 1958 01:42:46,280 --> 01:42:48,280 Speaker 4: sides of the ball, then you have to put your 1959 01:42:48,320 --> 01:42:51,920 Speaker 4: best players out there, especially for a franchise is trying 1960 01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:56,519 Speaker 4: to find a way to garner any type of success, 1961 01:42:57,640 --> 01:43:01,840 Speaker 4: any type of buzz, any type of movement, and I 1962 01:43:02,080 --> 01:43:05,160 Speaker 4: think this is an exciting pick for them and the draft, 1963 01:43:05,280 --> 01:43:07,600 Speaker 4: and I think people want to see just what he 1964 01:43:07,680 --> 01:43:11,400 Speaker 4: can do. And with that alone comes the notoriety in 1965 01:43:11,479 --> 01:43:14,120 Speaker 4: the buzz that a team like Jacksonville needs. 1966 01:43:15,040 --> 01:43:20,559 Speaker 3: Now you mentioned it, it's just like the Dull definitely 1967 01:43:20,640 --> 01:43:22,600 Speaker 3: notoriety in the buzz, and honestly. 1968 01:43:23,840 --> 01:43:26,439 Speaker 2: It's honestly, this is part of the reason why I 1969 01:43:26,600 --> 01:43:28,240 Speaker 2: just up heel back to curtain a little bit. 1970 01:43:28,320 --> 01:43:30,800 Speaker 3: I the day job, I'm producing a lot of the 1971 01:43:30,840 --> 01:43:32,719 Speaker 3: sports TV that you may be watching. 1972 01:43:33,520 --> 01:43:34,679 Speaker 2: This is the reason why. 1973 01:43:35,040 --> 01:43:39,160 Speaker 3: Everybody is focused on the backup quarterback competition in Cleveland. 1974 01:43:39,600 --> 01:43:41,919 Speaker 3: The number one overall pick in the draft was relatively 1975 01:43:42,040 --> 01:43:46,439 Speaker 3: unknown before he walked into Miami and then had the 1976 01:43:46,439 --> 01:43:49,479 Speaker 3: pleasure getting drafted by the Tennessee Titans and the Jacksonville 1977 01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:51,639 Speaker 3: Draft Wars drafted the most interesting player in the draft 1978 01:43:51,680 --> 01:43:55,920 Speaker 3: of Travis Hunter.

It was a huge in 2116 01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:36,080 Speaker 12: conversation last week. 2117 01:50:36,240 --> 01:50:39,559 Speaker 3: And honestly, I wanted Steve's thoughts regardless whether you see 2118 01:50:39,600 --> 01:50:41,240 Speaker 3: the movie or not, because I know you would have. 2119 01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:43,599 Speaker 2: I felt like you would add a figure. I think 2120 01:50:43,640 --> 01:50:44,599 Speaker 2: you'd enjoy it, Steve. 2121 01:50:44,960 --> 01:50:49,479 Speaker 3: I'll say this, Netflix to me specializes what I call 2122 01:50:49,640 --> 01:50:53,240 Speaker 3: laundry movies, Whereas as long as you are doing the 2123 01:50:53,400 --> 01:50:56,800 Speaker 3: laundry or something else as you watch the movie, you 2124 01:50:56,840 --> 01:51:00,560 Speaker 3: will really enjoy it as a laundry movie. Like I 2125 01:51:00,720 --> 01:51:03,400 Speaker 3: was playing the guitar. The entirety of watching Happy Gilmore. 2126 01:51:03,479 --> 01:51:04,280 Speaker 2: I thought it was great. 2127 01:51:04,479 --> 01:51:07,920 Speaker 12: So you're saying not Oscar winners. Is that what you're saying? 2128 01:51:07,960 --> 01:51:10,120 Speaker 2: In in other words, well, the first Happy Gilmore wasn't 2129 01:51:10,160 --> 01:51:11,040 Speaker 2: exactly the Godfather. 2130 01:51:11,360 --> 01:51:13,759 Speaker 12: I'm saying their whole lineup is what you're talking about. 2131 01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:17,360 Speaker 3: I will every so often they got some heat. Every 2132 01:51:17,439 --> 01:51:19,360 Speaker 3: so often they'll have something that was like that was 2133 01:51:19,439 --> 01:51:19,880 Speaker 3: really good. 2134 01:51:20,560 --> 01:51:24,280 Speaker 2: But it's it's kind of like, once you get to 2135 01:51:24,360 --> 01:51:26,040 Speaker 2: week thirteen of Thursday Night. 2136 01:51:25,960 --> 01:51:29,160 Speaker 3: Football, maybe one of the remaining games, it's gonna be 2137 01:51:29,200 --> 01:51:31,719 Speaker 3: a really good one, but we'll watch the rest. 2138 01:51:31,600 --> 01:51:33,640 Speaker 2: Of it just because for completion's sake. I guess I 2139 01:51:33,680 --> 01:51:34,799 Speaker 2: gotta watch Jack wars. 2140 01:51:34,680 --> 01:51:39,479 Speaker 12: Brown and eventually they'll pull out that uniform, so somebody's 2141 01:51:39,520 --> 01:51:42,599 Speaker 12: got to wear all red against a team oh yellow. 2142 01:51:42,800 --> 01:51:46,799 Speaker 12: It's the ketchup versus Mustard matchup on Thursday Night Football. 2143 01:51:47,120 --> 01:51:53,519 Speaker 2: Get into the color rush.

So you 2150 01:52:09,560 --> 01:52:11,679 Speaker 2: really can't see. I'm in my own world. 2151 01:52:11,720 --> 01:52:16,000 Speaker 12: I've created a world as long as good radio is made. 2152 01:52:16,080 --> 01:52:18,160 Speaker 3: You know, I'm not mad at it, but it is 2153 01:52:18,880 --> 01:52:22,400 Speaker 3: slightly disconcerting as as we're coming back into the segment 2154 01:52:22,800 --> 01:52:25,200 Speaker 3: as a co host, the music is playing as well. 2155 01:52:25,400 --> 01:52:27,680 Speaker 3: The Netflix is still playing over here.

There's a golfer four. 2164 01:52:49,320 --> 01:52:52,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, we love it, and Steve is great at it. See, 2165 01:52:53,680 --> 01:52:54,439 Speaker 2: but it does end. 2166 01:52:54,479 --> 01:52:57,360 Speaker 12: In three weeks golf and football begins, and that's that. 2167 01:52:57,800 --> 01:53:00,880 Speaker 2: We got action. I tell you what. 2168 01:53:01,479 --> 01:53:04,840 Speaker 3: In terms of sporting events that I've watched on TV 2169 01:53:05,200 --> 01:53:09,080 Speaker 3: in the last five years, I can't really off the 2170 01:53:09,160 --> 01:53:12,240 Speaker 3: top of my head. Watching Rory McElroy at the Masters 2171 01:53:13,240 --> 01:53:17,120 Speaker 3: was like a top just five viewing experience. There was 2172 01:53:17,160 --> 01:53:19,400 Speaker 3: a career element to that, of course, yeah, and I 2173 01:53:19,960 --> 01:53:23,600 Speaker 3: wasn't I'm not into I am the definition of parachute 2174 01:53:23,640 --> 01:53:27,240 Speaker 3: into golf, by the definition of like it's gotta be 2175 01:53:27,640 --> 01:53:30,519 Speaker 3: I gotta see people tweeting about it Sunday afternoon for 2176 01:53:30,680 --> 01:53:33,080 Speaker 3: me to turn on, you know, but watching him walk 2177 01:53:33,160 --> 01:53:36,320 Speaker 3: down and then the in and outs on eighteen, and 2178 01:53:36,400 --> 01:53:38,599 Speaker 3: then the playoff, and then I forget the guy who 2179 01:53:38,640 --> 01:53:41,639 Speaker 3: at those stay warm, like just in case he gets 2180 01:53:42,000 --> 01:53:43,599 Speaker 3: a shot to beat. 2181 01:53:43,479 --> 01:53:44,320 Speaker 2: Him in the playoff. 2182 01:53:44,439 --> 01:53:48,480 Speaker 9: Jim Nancy's call was just perfect too. McElroy has his masterpiece, 2183 01:53:49,120 --> 01:53:50,760 Speaker 9: so goosebumps. 2184 01:53:50,280 --> 01:53:53,599 Speaker 2: And Washington walking and walked down. I'm like, man, who's 2185 01:53:53,640 --> 01:53:55,439 Speaker 2: cutting onions in here? This is awesome. 2186 01:53:55,640 --> 01:53:59,040 Speaker 12: And golf does generally get good ratings for weekend sports 2187 01:53:59,280 --> 01:54:02,080 Speaker 12: just for the record, of course. Then there's Chargers Lions 2188 01:54:02,160 --> 01:54:05,360 Speaker 12: this week that was over six million viewers to watch 2189 01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:07,840 Speaker 12: backups play an exhibition game. 2190 01:54:08,040 --> 01:54:11,400 Speaker 3: Oh no, Steve, I heard people, you know, reputable people 2191 01:54:11,439 --> 01:54:13,320 Speaker 3: say Trey Lance is not done. 2192 01:54:14,120 --> 01:54:16,160 Speaker 2: He is at his best game in his career. 2193 01:54:17,200 --> 01:54:21,599 Speaker 3: He may have, but still, yeah, I think ultimately he's 2194 01:54:21,680 --> 01:54:25,200 Speaker 3: got talent, will get an opportunity to show that talent 2195 01:54:25,320 --> 01:54:26,200 Speaker 3: and cultivate it. 2196 01:54:26,920 --> 01:54:29,559 Speaker 2: We'll see there's a lot of people with talent. Yeah. 2197 01:54:29,640 --> 01:54:31,960 Speaker 12: Once the NFL goes to a twenty two game schedule. 2198 01:54:32,160 --> 01:54:33,720 Speaker 12: Every quarterback's gonna get hurt. 2199 01:54:33,840 --> 01:54:37,720 Speaker 3: So right that part I said when he got traded 2200 01:54:37,760 --> 01:54:40,160 Speaker 3: to the Cowboys, I'll say it again, it's Trey Lance. 2201 01:54:40,960 --> 01:54:43,440 Speaker 2: Better brush up on that, Saskatchewan because. 2202 01:54:43,280 --> 01:54:48,120 Speaker 3: You're headed to the CFL coming up next though a star? 2203 01:54:48,800 --> 01:54:52,920 Speaker 2: If just gruntled, how will this end? If it does? 2204 01:54:53,200 --> 01:54:55,080 Speaker 2: Is a gift coming to a new team. We'll get 2205 01:54:55,120 --> 01:54:56,840 Speaker 2: to that in just a minute. Martin White's Ephram Saloon, 2206 01:54:56,920 --> 01:54:58,160 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. 2207 01:55:01,600 --> 01:55:04,120 Speaker 3: Martin Wis's Ephram Salaam, coming to you live from the 2208 01:55:04,200 --> 01:55:09,880 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio studio as we keep the seats warm 2209 01:55:10,040 --> 01:55:14,960 Speaker 3: for another twelve minutes or so for Arnie and Plank. 2210 01:55:16,600 --> 01:55:18,840 Speaker 2: That's the show sweeping the nation. Where should they start? 2211 01:55:18,960 --> 01:55:19,120 Speaker 12: Right? 2212 01:55:19,480 --> 01:55:22,920 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying with the revenoumore rundown? Correct? 2213 01:55:23,040 --> 01:55:24,560 Speaker 2: There you go? There you go? 2214 01:55:25,520 --> 01:55:31,720 Speaker 3: Uh, they might start here Ephraim Micah Parsons goes full 2215 01:55:31,800 --> 01:55:35,560 Speaker 3: notes app and asks for a trade. Now, if this 2216 01:55:35,680 --> 01:55:38,920 Speaker 3: plays out like the last two times we've seen just 2217 01:55:39,040 --> 01:55:43,000 Speaker 3: gruntled player versus Jerry Jones, Michael Parsons will be suiting 2218 01:55:43,120 --> 01:55:47,160 Speaker 3: up week one and rushing the pastor for the Dallas Cowboys. 2219 01:55:48,000 --> 01:55:52,240 Speaker 3: But just for a moment, you know, it's the weekend indulgement. 2220 01:55:53,480 --> 01:55:57,640 Speaker 3: Envision a world where Michael Parsons does get traded. Is 2221 01:55:57,760 --> 01:56:00,200 Speaker 3: there a team or what team do you think think 2222 01:56:01,240 --> 01:56:03,480 Speaker 3: he could flip their fortunes. 2223 01:56:06,360 --> 01:56:07,480 Speaker 2: Or is he that type of player? 2224 01:56:07,520 --> 01:56:09,520 Speaker 3: Do you think he's the type of player that you 2225 01:56:09,760 --> 01:56:12,280 Speaker 3: plug in a spot and he can flip a team's fortunes. 2226 01:56:16,880 --> 01:56:23,560 Speaker 2: I think that's a good question. I think if he 2227 01:56:25,880 --> 01:56:29,240 Speaker 2: if he went to Cleveland, Okay, he can flip their 2228 01:56:29,520 --> 01:56:30,520 Speaker 2: their their fortune. 2229 01:56:31,320 --> 01:56:33,600 Speaker 3: So because if you if you went to Cleveland now 2230 01:56:33,960 --> 01:56:37,600 Speaker 3: and played the opposite of let's playing opposite Miles Garrett. 2231 01:56:38,440 --> 01:56:40,480 Speaker 3: So it would be you have Michael on one edge, 2232 01:56:40,920 --> 01:56:43,160 Speaker 3: Miles Garrett on the other one, and this year's number 2233 01:56:43,200 --> 01:56:44,600 Speaker 3: five Picnation Graham in the middle. 2234 01:56:44,680 --> 01:56:47,960 Speaker 2: That's tough. That's tough right there. You still don't have 2235 01:56:47,960 --> 01:56:51,680 Speaker 2: a quarterback. Though. I think if he goes to New York, Okay, 2236 01:56:54,080 --> 01:56:58,680 Speaker 2: play with Burns, Thibodeaux and Pittsburgh Lari So that was 2237 01:56:58,720 --> 01:56:59,280 Speaker 2: to Pittsburgh. 2238 01:57:00,320 --> 01:57:03,720 Speaker 3: That's interesting because that wasn't the team that I think 2239 01:57:03,800 --> 01:57:06,520 Speaker 3: that are like, I think that he is a if 2240 01:57:06,560 --> 01:57:09,320 Speaker 3: you take him and put him on this team, they 2241 01:57:09,480 --> 01:57:12,320 Speaker 3: go from I guess they're slightly their favorites now. 2242 01:57:12,360 --> 01:57:13,480 Speaker 2: I think Vegas is wrong. 2243 01:57:14,440 --> 01:57:18,000 Speaker 3: But if the Buffalo Bills can put a package together 2244 01:57:18,640 --> 01:57:22,960 Speaker 3: and go get Michael Parsons to pair with Josh Allen 2245 01:57:23,440 --> 01:57:27,160 Speaker 3: over the next what's Josh twenty seven, twenty six, pair 2246 01:57:27,240 --> 01:57:30,920 Speaker 3: with him over the next stretch, over the next four years. 2247 01:57:31,040 --> 01:57:32,440 Speaker 2: That's it good. That's good. 2248 01:57:33,080 --> 01:57:36,000 Speaker 3: I mean Josh twenty nine, twenty nine, all right, so cool, 2249 01:57:36,200 --> 01:57:38,440 Speaker 3: next three years. Whatever you think Josh plays till the 2250 01:57:38,840 --> 01:57:41,400 Speaker 3: that's really good. I think Josh probably has at least 2251 01:57:41,480 --> 01:57:44,800 Speaker 3: until thirty two where he's still running in athletic and jumping, 2252 01:57:45,360 --> 01:57:48,160 Speaker 3: you know, jumping over buildings in a single bound type 2253 01:57:48,160 --> 01:57:48,840 Speaker 3: of play. 2254 01:57:48,920 --> 01:57:50,840 Speaker 2: That the style of player that he has. I think 2255 01:57:50,880 --> 01:57:53,120 Speaker 2: he's got at least three more years of that in them. 2256 01:57:54,600 --> 01:57:58,520 Speaker 2: You pair with Micah make Pike, and the Bill's not 2257 01:57:58,640 --> 01:58:02,440 Speaker 2: paying I don't like the Bills are paying anybody like young. 2258 01:58:02,520 --> 01:58:04,040 Speaker 3: I mean, I know they offered a lot of guys 2259 01:58:04,080 --> 01:58:06,040 Speaker 3: on their defensive big deals, but you tag them up 2260 01:58:06,040 --> 01:58:09,560 Speaker 3: there at Greg Russou like, and I thought that would 2261 01:58:09,560 --> 01:58:12,280 Speaker 3: definitely help them get over the hump. And they added 2262 01:58:12,320 --> 01:58:13,400 Speaker 3: Joey Bosa. That's cool. 2263 01:58:13,520 --> 01:58:15,360 Speaker 2: Joey Bosa might have ten sacks, but he might have 2264 01:58:15,480 --> 01:58:16,320 Speaker 2: him in seven games. 2265 01:58:16,440 --> 01:58:18,640 Speaker 9: He's already injured for them, right, Like, I'm not. 2266 01:58:18,720 --> 01:58:22,200 Speaker 3: Expecting Wow, already Joey Bosa to like if he plays 2267 01:58:22,280 --> 01:58:25,040 Speaker 3: ten games, I think that's a win for Buffalo. Right, 2268 01:58:25,120 --> 01:58:27,280 Speaker 3: And you kind of chase this dragon a little bit 2269 01:58:27,400 --> 01:58:30,320 Speaker 3: with von Miller before him, and now you did it 2270 01:58:30,400 --> 01:58:34,040 Speaker 3: for joe Joey Bosa. If I'm Buffalo, if I'm Brandon Bean, 2271 01:58:34,040 --> 01:58:36,640 Speaker 3: I'm picking up the phone. Listen, I'm picking with the 2272 01:58:36,720 --> 01:58:39,840 Speaker 3: twenty seventh pick at best. Anyway, Jerry, what do you want? 2273 01:58:40,400 --> 01:58:43,040 Speaker 2: I gave you two? Wolm. You know what I'm saying, Like, 2274 01:58:43,040 --> 01:58:46,200 Speaker 2: what are we talking about here? What are we doing? If? 2275 01:58:47,800 --> 01:58:50,600 Speaker 3: When the Chiefs won the Super Bowl against Rock Party 2276 01:58:50,680 --> 01:58:55,320 Speaker 3: and the Niners, Mahomes played well. Not taking anything away 2277 01:58:55,360 --> 01:58:58,880 Speaker 3: from it, they'll play if you drill it down. That 2278 01:58:59,040 --> 01:59:02,240 Speaker 3: won the Super Bowl was Chris Jones rushing brock Perty 2279 01:59:02,320 --> 01:59:05,800 Speaker 3: off the spot all day. That's the play that won 2280 01:59:05,960 --> 01:59:09,920 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. When Matthew Stafford and Cooper Cup went 2281 01:59:10,040 --> 01:59:13,520 Speaker 3: to the Super Bowl against Joe Burrow, offense play well. 2282 01:59:13,600 --> 01:59:16,360 Speaker 3: Cooper Cup played well. The play that won the Super 2283 01:59:16,400 --> 01:59:21,080 Speaker 3: Bowl was Aaron Donald tackling Joe Burrow because if he hadn't, 2284 01:59:21,160 --> 01:59:22,960 Speaker 3: Jamar Chase was wide open and I had to be 2285 01:59:23,120 --> 01:59:27,200 Speaker 3: a couple thousand dollars rich because I bettled Cincinnati, like 2286 01:59:28,400 --> 01:59:32,200 Speaker 3: you know, and just hell Buffalo, go back to Buffalo. 2287 01:59:32,400 --> 01:59:38,080 Speaker 3: If Chris Jones doesn't push Deon Thawkens into Josh Allen 2288 01:59:38,160 --> 01:59:41,440 Speaker 3: an AFT Championship game, forcing Allen to miss that deep throw, 2289 01:59:43,600 --> 01:59:46,280 Speaker 3: we might be having a whole different conversation about who's 2290 01:59:46,320 --> 01:59:48,480 Speaker 3: the real face of the league or who's the Kings? 2291 01:59:48,640 --> 01:59:50,240 Speaker 2: Right, you know what I'm saying, who's the Kings of THEFC. 2292 01:59:50,280 --> 01:59:54,360 Speaker 4: He'd be a whole different story. That's a great point, seriously, 2293 01:59:54,600 --> 02:00:04,400 Speaker 4: And in that context, Dalla would be smart to try 2294 02:00:04,440 --> 02:00:06,640 Speaker 4: to get maximum value. I don't know if they can 2295 02:00:06,720 --> 02:00:13,960 Speaker 4: afford him at the number that's out there, but I mean, 2296 02:00:14,120 --> 02:00:18,680 Speaker 4: I don't if even if he stays in Dallas, he'd 2297 02:00:18,800 --> 02:00:24,600 Speaker 4: just be the highest paid d N just playing for 2298 02:00:24,680 --> 02:00:25,080 Speaker 4: the money. 2299 02:00:25,400 --> 02:00:27,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, to your point, like kind of the 2300 02:00:27,520 --> 02:00:29,680 Speaker 3: same thing with Miles Garrett. When Miles Garrett asked for 2301 02:00:29,720 --> 02:00:31,920 Speaker 3: the trade. There's a concept of like, ooh, are we 2302 02:00:32,000 --> 02:00:35,040 Speaker 3: gonna see Miles Garrett in playoff? Games shortly after we 2303 02:00:35,120 --> 02:00:38,160 Speaker 3: found out the answers no right, and we've seen Mike 2304 02:00:38,320 --> 02:00:39,480 Speaker 3: in a few playoff games. 2305 02:00:40,120 --> 02:00:40,480 Speaker 2: But like 2306 02:00:42,160 --> 02:00:45,400 Speaker 3: If I had to bet, I think the Cowboys aren't 2307 02:00:45,480 --> 02:00:49,480 Speaker 3: dancing this postseason if I had to bet, Whereas Michael 2308 02:00:49,520 --> 02:00:53,280 Speaker 3: Parsons will not be making plays in the playoffs because 2309 02:00:53,320 --> 02:00:55,680 Speaker 3: Dallas will be sitting at home, just like I'll be 2310 02:00:56,160 --> 02:00:58,680 Speaker 3: listening to Plank and Arnie coming up next.
