1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 2: Our two on this Monday, Best and Worst of the weekend.

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 2: What you saw that you liked you didn't like. I

5
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 2: didn't like the fact that Dylan, on his first day

6
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 2: as a Dan ed showed up late and then he

7
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 2: blamed it on carpooling with a couple of the back

8
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:24,159
Speaker 2: room guys coming up with excuses already, Dylan, welcome to

9
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 2: the show.

10
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 3: It's no an excuse, Dan, It's a reason.

11
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: Fritzi is here, the Minister of humor, Dylan is here.

12
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 2: Marv Pauliers truly. We are en route to Pittsburgh coming

13
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 2: up after the show. Reggie Miller will stop by a

14
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 2: little bit later on today. Fernando Mendoza joins us on

15
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 2: Wednesday morning and got a lot of questions for him.

16
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 2: And I don't know if he's been told that he's

17
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: going to be the number one overall pick, but he

18
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 2: has to play it cool because the NFL says, don't

19
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 2: reveal who you're taking, or if you're going to be

20
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 2: the number one player taken. You don't lead on that

21
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 2: you know anything. But he's already met with Tom Brady,

22
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 2: so I'm assuming if you're going to meet with Tom Brady.

23
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: You're going to be the number one pick in the draft.

24
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 2: But we'll talk to him coming up on Wednesday. And

25
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 2: I know people get upset whenever I bring up the

26
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,400
Speaker 2: comparison to Kirk Cousins, just so happens they go out

27
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 2: and get Kirk Cousins. Well, I'm comparing the styles Kirk

28
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 2: Cousins and Fernando Mendoza. And if I said to you,

29
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 2: Fernando Mendoza is going to have a Kirk Cousins career,

30
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: I would sign up for that. If I'm Fernando Mendoza

31
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: or a Raiders fans, he's played quality football for a

32
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 2: long time. I brought up Joe Flacco. People get upset.

33
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 2: Joe Flacco won an MVP in a Super Bowl. I

34
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: would sign up for that. But you know, everybody thinks

35
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 2: he's Josh Allen, or he's going to be the next

36
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 2: Tom Brady, or he's going to be the next Patrick Mahomes.

37
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 4: He's not.

38
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 2: Now, he might be something that's different we're always looking for. Well,

39
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,119
Speaker 2: he's got to be the next I don't know. He's

40
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 2: not Joe Burrow. I mean even Tom Brady when he

41
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 2: won his first Super Bowl. We still weren't sold on

42
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,920
Speaker 2: the fact that he's a franchise quarterback. Oh you know

43
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: what they won with defense? Okay, Fernando Mendoza.

44
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 4: Will be a great face for that franchise, an unbelievable

45
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 4: poster child. And he says all the right things.

46
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 2: It's like if Russell Wilson and Andrew Luck had a child,

47
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: it would be Fernando Mendoza. He just says all the

48
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 2: right things. He seems to do the right things. He's

49
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 2: a CEO kind of mentality. There, a team first guy,

50
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,239
Speaker 2: and I think it'll be an unbelievable pick for that team,

51
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: provided they serve round him so he can succeed. But

52
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: he'll join us on Wednesday. And the Kirk Cousins move

53
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: I think was made for a couple of reasons. I

54
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 2: think he plays like Kirk Cousins dots. Why not bring

55
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: in Kirk Cousins to help him? And you're thinking long

56
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 2: term here, I'm sure there are other quarterbacks. Now, if

57
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 2: I'm Fernando Mendoza, I want to be compared to Matthew

58
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 2: Stafford because that's that's a Hall of Famer. But there's

59
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: no other arm like that in the NFL. Maybe Josh Allen,

60
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: But you know that's that's an incredible comparison. But we

61
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 2: love to do that. We love to go you know

62
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 2: who he reminds me of? We because if you say

63
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 2: that player, well, I didn't get see him play, who's

64
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 2: he remind you of? And then you say somebody and

65
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 2: you go, oh, okay, And usually that player is usually

66
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 2: really good, a Hall of Famer. But because I said

67
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins Raider, fans get up with that. I'd sign

68
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 2: up for that, Yes, Dylan, yeh.

69
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 3: If I'm Mendoz and you give me Flacco's career in

70
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins career earnings, I'm good.

71
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:19,160
Speaker 2: Yes, Kirk Cousins Hall of Fame, contract business if they

72
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: do a business acumen. Hall of Fame for the NFL.

73
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 2: Darrell Revis is already in as a player, but he

74
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,039
Speaker 2: would be in for contract negotiations as well. It's almost

75
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 2: like you go in Phil Collins can go in for

76
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 2: the band Genesis, but then he goes in as a

77
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,239
Speaker 2: single artist as well.

78
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 4: That's sort of what you know.

79
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 2: Darrell Reeves has Kirk Cousins on a Hall of Fame quarterback,

80
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 2: but he is a Hall of Fame negotiator. All right,

81
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 2: good morning. If you're watching on Peacock, thank you for

82
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 2: downloading the app. We'll talk some football, in particular the

83
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 2: Patriots situation with Albert Breer. He'll join us coming up

84
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 2: in about fifteen or twenty minutes from now, and Reggie Miller.

85
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 2: In the final hour of the program. Webby knocked off

86
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 2: the Blazers last night, game one of the playoff series.

87
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 2: He went for thirty five and the Magic upset the

88
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: top seeded Detroit Pistons, who have lost eleven consecutive home

89
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 2: playoff games. Our stat of the day has always brought

90
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 2: to you by Panini America, the official trading cards at

91
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 2: the Dan Patrick Show, The Dexter Lawrence Deal. A little

92
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 2: bit more to add to that. I was told Joe

93
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 2: Burrow is the one calling the shots in Cincinnati. He's

94
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 2: the one that said, I got to have my two

95
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 2: receivers signed up. He's been saying, you know, you got

96
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 2: to bring you know, Trey Hendricks in. You got a signing,

97
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 2: which they did last year didn't work out. And from

98
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 2: what I'm told, Joe Burrow said to management, you gotta

99
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 2: do something defensively or I'm out of here. I was

100
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: told this this morning by a source who said that

101
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 2: Joe has given them an ultimatum and now I thought

102
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 2: something was off this last season. I said it a

103
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: couple of times. It's weird. I see, you know, Joe

104
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 2: Burrow is like the next Matthew Stafford with the Rams.

105
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 2: It just felt like he's He's just like I am.

106
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 2: I'm trying, I'm playing hurt. We got to a super Bowl.

107
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 2: We're getting further and further away. I got these receivers

108
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:22,599
Speaker 2: who are unbelievable. I'm in my prime. Man.

109
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 4: It feels like he's the.

110
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 2: One saying to management, you got to do something here.

111
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 2: And my source said that this was you gotta do

112
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 2: something defensively or I'm out of here. The Giants have

113
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 2: two first round picks. They have two top ten picks.

114
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 2: They get the tenth pick and the fifth pick. Caleb

115
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 2: Downs is the guy that they really want, whether they

116
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 2: get him at five or they get him at ten.

117
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 2: He's not gonna be available at ten. He's a safety

118
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: at Ohio State. But you might see the Giants go

119
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 2: after two Ohio State players, Sunny Styles and Caleb Downs.

120
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 2: You're going to get two starters like Week one starters,

121
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 2: which following the Giants tradition, you build with defense. Now

122
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 2: you already got your quarterback. You've got a Marque wide receiver.

123
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 2: Cam Scautabou is an interesting running back. But you know,

124
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 2: if you're going to build that defense, yes, you gave

125
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 2: up Dexter Lawrence and that's a winning now kind of player.

126
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 4: Now you're going to.

127
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 2: Bring in some youth with that defense, and it might

128
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 2: be something you know in two years that we look

129
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: at the Giants a whole lot differently with the new

130
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 2: head coach with John Harbaugh. But you know, Joe Burrow

131
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 2: probably saying to management from what I'm told, led to

132
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 2: this with Dexter Lawrence and then the Giants having two

133
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 2: picks in the top ten and Caleb Downs is a player.

134
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: Now you could see a team going after Caleb Downs,

135
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 2: somebody moving up for Caleb Downs. And you get a

136
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 2: lot of the and you got to separate sometimes, like

137
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,239
Speaker 2: somebody's telling me something.

138
00:07:58,240 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 4: Why are they telling me something?

139
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 2: Now that I have people telling me things, and two

140
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 2: of them have no agenda whatsoever. You know, one is

141
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 2: still employed as a scout. So you're trying to go, Okay,

142
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 2: where are we going with this? Why am I being

143
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 2: told this, and you know that's sometimes hard to do.

144
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: Earlier in my career, I didn't know sometimes when you're

145
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 2: getting played, when somebody would say, hey, you know who's

146
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 2: interested in Brandon Roy and I'd be like, ohoh, they

147
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 2: would tell me somebody and be like, oh, okay, Now

148
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 2: you're able to kind of sift through this a little

149
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 2: bit and then see because you know the Jeremiah Love situation,

150
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 2: it feels like there's a whole lot going on here.

151
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 2: You know, Arizona could take him, Titans could take him,

152
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,839
Speaker 2: Commanders could take him. I think he's the best player

153
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 2: in the draft. Now that doesn't mean you draft him

154
00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 2: number one because the Raiders have Ashton Genty. You know,

155
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 2: being a running back, you know you don't take running

156
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 2: backs in the top ten.

157
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 4: But he's different.

158
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: Of all of the players offensively in this draft who

159
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 2: hit home runs. He hits home runs and it's not

160
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 2: even close. But it's a running back. I'm not going

161
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 2: to trade up to get him. But if the Titans

162
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: take him, do they have an offensive line that's ready

163
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 2: for him and that offense? That'd be the only thing

164
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 2: that I would push back on. Is he a Saquon

165
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: Barkley like, well, the Giants were a competitive team when

166
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 2: they took Saquon Barkley. Eli was still a quarterback. And

167
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 2: I did think Saquon Barkley was a good pick for

168
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 2: the Giants.

169
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 4: I did.

170
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 2: I'm on record as saying that I think the Commanders.

171
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 2: If Jeremiah Love is there for the Commanders, I'm like,

172
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 2: oh my god, thank you. But that's a good team

173
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,079
Speaker 2: down year. They can be a playoff team. And now

174
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 2: I've got him. I got Jaden Daniels and I got

175
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 2: Jeremiah Love. I got home run hitters, and not many

176
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,319
Speaker 2: teams have those kind of home run hitters at that age.

177
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 2: But you're hearing it's almost like you're not sure if

178
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,200
Speaker 2: somebody's really interested. They want to let you think they're interested.

179
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 2: Are you interested in trading? Are they saying this they

180
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 2: want to trade down? How much they're going to cost

181
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 2: to move up to four? I don't think Arizona. I

182
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 2: think it would be wrong for Arizona to take Jeremiah Love.

183
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 2: Now that doesn't mean Arizona doesn't do what Arizona sometimes does.

184
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 2: He's a great player, but I think he would be

185
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 2: maybe a good player on an Arizona team. Arizona needs

186
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 2: a lot more. Now, if you can trade out of that,

187
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 2: maybe you get a little bit more than great, That's

188
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 2: what I would do. But Jeremiah Love is not going

189
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,559
Speaker 2: to go past the commanders in my opinion. But you're

190
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,199
Speaker 2: going to get a lot of defensive players. And I

191
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 2: wouldn't be surprised if the Giants have two players from

192
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 2: Ohio State.

193
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, Pauline, it does seem that the next two or

194
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 5: three days, the more reports air quotes you hear, it

195
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 5: seems like bait because like the Arizona Cardinals story that

196
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 5: they're interested in Love, feels like, let's try to drive

197
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 5: the market for someone to go up and get Jeremilah.

198
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know they even talked about Arizona and

199
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 2: Ty Simpson.

200
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 4: Well, you're not taking him that high. He's not a

201
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 4: top five pick.

202
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 2: But if I can get him, I think they have

203
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 2: maybe the thirty fourth pick. If I could get Ty Simpson,

204
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 2: and you believe in Ty Simpsons, then that'd be a

205
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 2: great spot for him. Ty Simpson's going to get a

206
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 2: lot of attention here in the next couple of days.

207
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 2: We don't know what's happening with Aaron Rodgers. I don't

208
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 2: know if Arizona. Or if Pittsburgh says, let's wait until

209
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 2: after the draft and then decide what we're doing with

210
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. If Pittsburgh gets Ty Simpson, then are you

211
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 2: more likely or less likely bring back Aaron Rodgers. It

212
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:07,199
Speaker 2: feels like the Kumbai Ah moment here with McCarthy and

213
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers is here, like, hey, everything's great. Going to

214
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 2: reunite Aaron coming back would be co signing on Mike

215
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 2: McCarthy and they can coexist here. But you know, doesn't

216
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 2: feel like there's anything going on right now. And maybe

217
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh is saying, let's wait, maybe we get Ty Simpson.

218
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 2: What if you don't, But it feels like somebody who's

219
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 2: going to reach for Ty Simpson in the first round.

220
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 2: My friend who's the scout said I don't have a

221
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 2: first round grade on him.

222
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 4: And this is the same guy who said I have a.

223
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 2: First round grade on Jackson Dark and I have him

224
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 2: in the twenties. He was right, but you know, he

225
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 2: said somebody's going to reach for Ty Simpson. I also

226
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 2: saw where Miami Hurricanes they reached out to Ty Simpson

227
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 2: before or he was going to go to the draft,

228
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 2: and they were going to offer him over five million

229
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 2: dollars a year, so he would have been Carson Beck

230
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 2: coming in making five five and a half million dollars.

231
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 6: Yes, Marvin better team the Miami Dolphins or Miami Hurricanes.

232
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go Dolphins. I'll go Dolphins here. Yes.

233
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 5: But if you're the it's getting like that with the

234
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 5: NBA draft and the NFL draft. If Ty Simpson somehow

235
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 5: goes at the first pick of round two, he's taking

236
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 5: a pay cut.

237
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 7: Yeah.

238
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 5: The player Mullins for Yukon who decided to stay, he

239
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 5: will make more money being one year at Yukon than

240
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 5: being the eighteenth pick of the.

241
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 4: Draft next year.

242
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know what he's gonna make at Yukon,

243
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 2: but maybe he's only making three million dollars a year. Yeah,

244
00:13:56,760 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: but I'd be surprised at that because all indications where

245
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 2: Raylan Mullens was coming out and I saw like the

246
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 2: late first round that I saw one maybe in the twenties.

247
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:12,560
Speaker 2: With these mock drafts, they're getting this information too. Now

248
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 2: his dad is actively kind of doing research here, like

249
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 2: where do you see him? You know, projection, and you

250
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 2: know you want to get into the NBA as soon

251
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 2: as possible so you can get to the next contract.

252
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 2: But if you feel like and I'm glad he's staying,

253
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 2: I'm glad he has the option that he gets to stay,

254
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 2: and he does need more work. He needs to know

255
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 2: what it's like to be the number one guy. That's

256
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 2: that's the feeling that he should try to absorb. Going back,

257
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 2: you're going to make your money now you're the guy

258
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 2: who has to step up every single game, yes, Marsh.

259
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, you also don't want to be one of those

260
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 6: guys where you're projected to be the eighteenth pick in

261
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 6: the draft, but guess what you end up being the

262
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 6: twenty ninth pick in the draft and you're playing for

263
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 6: the Greensboro Swarm instead of the Charlotte Hornets.

264
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 5: Yes, Pauli, like AJ debantsa guys like him are going

265
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 5: to go one and done because the money being a

266
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 5: top five pick is is unmatchable by Kansas or Yukon

267
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 5: or BYU. But if you're in that fifteen to twenty

268
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 5: five range, yeah, it's a decision.

269
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 2: Well, how much does the fifteenth pick overall make? Like

270
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: last year, how much did that fifteenth pick make? Because

271
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 2: you know we are seeing players who are going to

272
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: be older going into these drafts, and some of these

273
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 2: jams in the different sports have talked about that they

274
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 2: want a younger player coming in.

275
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 5: Yes, Pauli, the fifteenth pick in the twenty twenty five draft,

276
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 5: signed a four year deal worth twenty two point five

277
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 5: million dollars, so approximately much five point six million a year.

278
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think he's getting that at Connecticut. I mean,

279
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 2: demands had got six million, and he was best player

280
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 2: in the game or one of the two or three

281
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 2: players in the game. But yeah, going back, I was

282
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 2: surprised at that, but I'd be curious what that money

283
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 2: was to keep him there. All right, let's take a break.

284

00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 2: Bengals giving up that tenth pick, getting Dexter Lawrence, and

312
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 2: let's start with the Giants side of this, what do

313
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 2: you like?

314
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 6: Not like?

315
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 8: Well, I mean I liked that they got the tenth pick.

316
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 8: I went back to look this up. The last time

317
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 8: a team got a top ten pick for a veteran

318
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 8: non quarterback clean was twenty one years ago and that

319
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 8: was the Vikings trading Randy Moss to the to the

320
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,360
Speaker 8: Vikings for the seventh pick of seventh rounder in Napoleon Harris.

321
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 8: So they got really good value here. I do know

322
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,479
Speaker 8: that they wanted to hold on to him Dan, so

323
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 8: I know this does hurt for them and that you know,

324
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 8: really it goes back to the combine in twenty twenty five.

325
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,439
Speaker 8: After you know, having a really great year in twenty

326
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 8: four Lawrence wanted to market correction on his contract because

327
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 8: it was three years early.

328
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 7: The Giants didn't want to said that. President months later

329
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 7: they agreed to an incentive package.

330
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,959
Speaker 8: And then they circle back this year and you know,

331
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 8: really they couldn't ever come to an agreement on the

332
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 8: structure of the guarantees that sort of stuff, and so

333
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 8: you know, the Adam Schefter tweet on him putting on

334
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 8: a trade request I think was April sixth. The Bengals

335
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,879
Speaker 8: called them on April seventh and they talked for the

336
00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 8: remainder of that week, and by the end of that

337
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 8: we the tenth pick was on the table.

338
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 7: And so it's just to.

339
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 8: Illustrate to you, like how hard this was for the

340
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 8: Giants despite the great return. They tried for another week

341
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 8: after that to to get something done with Dexter Lawrence

342
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 8: and ultimately they couldn't come to an agreement. So for

343
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 8: the Giants, it's an opportunity to reset.

344
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:20,439
Speaker 5: You know.

345
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 8: Now, I think you're in a position where, you know,

346
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 8: you get a player who wasn't happy with this situation

347
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 8: out the door as you're trying to.

348
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 7: Build a new program.

349
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 8: Program is gonna be really demanding under John Harbaugh, and

350
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 8: you have two of the top ten picks in the

351
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 8: draft and a chance to reset with your types of guys.

352
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 2: The Begels situation here and the Jet Burrow factor because

353
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 2: it Yeah, it is felt like for the last year

354
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 2: there has been like this undercurrent of he he wants helped,

355
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 2: needs help, feels like I don't know, discouraged. Yeah, so

356
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 2: I don't know. And once again this is my source

357
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 2: saying you got to do something here.

358
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 8: Yeah, I had, I had someone, I had a a

359
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 8: GM and another team say to me yesterday and.

360
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,239
Speaker 7: This is like verpaid him. Duke had to do this

361
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 7: for Joe Duke.

362
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 8: Is their their vice president, player of personnel, basically their GM,

363
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 8: Duke Tobin, right, And so you know, like I think

364
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 8: there was there is that urgency, like we have to

365
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 8: compete in the here and the now. But this wasn't

366
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 8: haphazard for them either. You know, this is something that

367
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 8: it was. It was looking at the draft class, it

368
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 8: was looking at the value of the pick, and I

369
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 8: think they were looking at what might be available to

370
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 8: them there at ten. It probably would have been a

371
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 8: kale of Downs or a man Seward Layne. And you

372
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 8: know what they found was, you know, as they did

373
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 8: their simulations, the guys they were picking at ten for

374
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 8: them at least had mid to late first round grades.

375
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 7: That's the sort of draft it is.

376
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 8: So yeah, you're trading the tenth pick, but they didn't

377
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 8: really value it that way this year, and it was

378
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 8: an opportunity to get a guy who can be a

379
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 8: true difference maker for them and a force multiplier. And

380
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 8: so you know, like they felt actively have taken a room,

381
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 8: the defensive tackle room that was a weakness last year

382
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 8: and turned it into one of the strongest in the NFL.

383
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 7: They got Jonathan Allen, who's.

384
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,199
Speaker 8: Coming over from Minnesota, is a great player for a

385
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 8: lot of years in Washington.

386
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 7: You know, they've got TJ. Slayton, who's a good depth piece.

387
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 8: BJ Hill has been a really good player for them,

388
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 8: former teammate of Lawrences from New York. And then Chris Jenkins,

389
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 8: who is the second round pick for them a couple

390
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 8: of years ago. They go five deep at that position now,

391
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 8: and the hope is that that's going to make everyone better.

392
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 8: And the way they viewed it was there's no one

393
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 8: like Dexter Lawrence in this year's draft.

394
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 7: The other thing that I think is sort of interesting

395
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 7: here is.

396
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 8: You know the contract they signed him to a deal

397
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 8: that's effectively a three year, seventy million dollar contract that's

398
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 8: less than twenty four million dollars a year, which you know,

399
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 8: in an environment where Micah Parsons is getting forty six,

400
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,360
Speaker 8: Aiden Hutchinson's getting forty five, Will Anderson is now getting fifty,

401
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 8: that's a relative bargain and recent history shows that guys

402
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 8: at that position do last. Chris Jones is still somebody

403
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 8: team's game plan around. He's going to be thirty two

404
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,439
Speaker 8: years this summer, Aaron Donald was dominant until you know,

405
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 8: he retired at thirty two. So this is a guy

406
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 8: that they feel like they can get three or four

407
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,640
Speaker 8: really good years out of that's going to be better

408
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 8: than what they would have gotten a ten.

409
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 7: And you know somebody that offenses have.

410
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:16,919
Speaker 8: To worry about the minute they break the huddle and

411
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 8: have to game plan for the week ahead.

412
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 2: Can you see a market correction for Miles Garrett if

413
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 2: he looks around and he's like, wait a minute, I

414
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 2: set the sack record and Will Anderson's getting fifty million dollars.

415
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think so sure.

416
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 8: I mean, you know, the crazy thing is that that

417
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 8: Miles Garrett deal was done. I think it's now would

418
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 8: be thirteen months ago he was the first guy to

419
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 8: break forty, first non quarterback to break forty.

420
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 7: They are now seven over that mark.

421
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 8: You know, it just gives you an idea of how

422
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 8: these things are inflating now and and so, you know,

423
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,119
Speaker 8: I think for Miles Garrett it's you know, you're sitting

424
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 8: back and you're saying, I could ask the Browns for

425
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 8: that if I'm ever traded, you know, if they were

426
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 8: looking at trading me at some point, which I would

427
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 8: actually advocate for the Browns looking at.

428
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 7: That at some point.

429
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 8: But the Browns for ever to trade him going to

430
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 8: a new team, that would probably be part of your ask.

431
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 8: He's certainly within his rights to ask for it. Whether

432
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 8: or not he actually does that, I think, you know,

433
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 8: maybe we're at the point in the calendar where the

434
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 8: ship has sailed a little.

435
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 7: Bit on that.

436
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 8: But you know, I don't think the idea of him

437
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 8: asking for something with a with a five at the

438
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,360
Speaker 8: front of it is too far off in the horizon.

439
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 2: Joking Albert Breer, the Monday Morning Quarterback senior NFL reporter.

440
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 4: Let's look at the Patriots situation.

441
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 2: I don't want to do it in a sensationalistic approach

442
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 2: or titillating approach, but I do want to look at

443
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 2: this from the football aspect of what has happened the

444
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 2: New York Post, you know, they report that Robert Kraft

445
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 2: tried to kill the story moving forward, there's the aj

446
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 2: Brown potential trade that we've been talking about for quite

447
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 2: some time. So how do you How do you cover

448
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 2: the Patriots in a grown up manner?

449
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 8: I think you just kind of consider the people involved

450
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 8: and you consider, you know, the situation that they're all in,

451
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 8: and it made me look like I think, you know,

452
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 8: it's something that Mike has to address with his players,

453
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 8: and probably today, like those players are returning for the

454
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 8: off season program today, my guess would be it'd be

455
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 8: one of the first things that he says. And I

456
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 8: don't think that he's gonna, you know, go chapter and

457
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 8: verse through what happened.

458
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,919
Speaker 7: But they have a sign up in every meeting room

459
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 7: in that building.

460
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 8: This has make good decisions on and off the field,

461
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 8: and I think Mike can very easily address this and say,

462
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 8: look like, I'm always asking you guys to be accountable.

463
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 8: I'm always asking you guys to make good decisions on

464
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 8: and off the field, regardless of how you see what

465
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 8: has been in the news over the last two weeks.

466
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,639
Speaker 8: Obviously I made some mistakes, and you know, I'm standing

467
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 8: in front of you willing to admit it to you.

468
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 8: And you know, I think the thing about it is like,

469
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 8: to me, those guys are twenty three, twenty four, twenty five, twenty.

470
00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 7: Six year old guys.

471
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 8: I think they might be texting about this with people

472
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 8: amongst each other, you know, and so like, if you don't.

473
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 7: Address it, it kind of becomes the elephant in the room.

474
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 8: And you know, Mike is one thing that Mike has

475
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,439
Speaker 8: an abundance of is is emotional intelligence.

476
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:15,400
Speaker 7: And he understands.

477
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 8: I think he's you know, really good understanding what makes

478
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,959
Speaker 8: people tick and understanding you know, the ebbs and flows

479
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,919
Speaker 8: the players go through. And so my guess would be

480
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 8: he'll address it right away, He'll you know, take care

481
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 8: of it that way. Now the front of the front

482
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 8: facing part of this, the public part of it, I'm

483
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 8: I'm I'm interested in too, because the longer you let

484
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 8: this go, the more it leaves open the conversation. And

485
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 8: I mean, if the first time he's going to be

486
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,720
Speaker 8: available is after the draft on Thursday night, like they're

487
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,920
Speaker 8: going to be welcoming a first round pick into the building,

488
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 8: and is every question now going to be about you

489
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 8: know what happened in Arizona. I you know, I think

490
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 8: you I think you probably want to say something before then,

491
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 8: So like I just say, like, you know, the way.

492
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 7: I've handled it is you know, I you know.

493
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,919
Speaker 8: I try to I try to be professional in the

494
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 8: way that I talk about it, you know, as many

495
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 8: jokes are out there and everything else on social media,

496
00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 8: and you know, and and and and and how and

497
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 8: how it relates to to football obviously, is is the

498
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 8: primary thing that that that I would be looking at,

499
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 8: and how it relates to my job, and then the

500
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 8: aj Brown thing. I think I think we all have

501
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 8: an idea of where this is going. I think we've

502
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 8: all had an idea of where this is going, you know,

503
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 8: for some time now.

504
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you're trying to deal with this. And

505
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 2: I've been on vacation for the last week. But when

506
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 2: I was on vacation, people wanted to know, you know,

507
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 2: do you know Diana Roussini, she's been on the show.

508
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,919
Speaker 2: I don't know her, but you know she was always

509
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 2: a delight when she was on the show and had

510
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 2: information and energy.

511
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 4: Vrabel I don't know Mike, but you you're.

512
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 2: You're looking at this in a couple of different ways,

513
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 2: and I'm trying to look at this football. But then

514
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 2: You've got to look at this. How does this affect

515
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 2: NFL media moving forward?

516
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 9: Yeah?

517
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 4: Does this have an impact in any way? Yeah?

518
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 8: I mean, well, first of all, I covered Mike as

519
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 8: a player, so I've known Mike for a long long time.

520
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 7: And Diana I first met Diana.

521
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,440
Speaker 8: I was around you know, the Redskins a lot and

522
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 8: the Mike Shanahan and Jay Gruden days, and she was

523
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 8: a local TV reporter and I got to know her then,

524
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:27,400
Speaker 8: So I know, and like both people involved, you know.

525
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 7: I think what it does is it.

526
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 8: Puts more scrutiny on our relationships, you know, And it

527
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,479
Speaker 8: just puts more scrutiny on how we handle and manage

528
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 8: our relationships were regardless of what.

529
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 7: Actually happened in Arizona.

530
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,399
Speaker 8: I'm not saying one way or the other, but you know,

531
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 8: I've thought about this a lot and how and this

532
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 8: is before any of this happened. Like, you know, I've

533
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 8: always sort of felt like, you know, I could be

534
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,439
Speaker 8: seen at a bar with a head coach or a

535
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,320
Speaker 8: general manager of whatever team, and nobody would really think

536
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 8: that was weird. Right, the two of us, by ourselves,

537
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 8: like women in our business, may not have that luxury,

538
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 8: you know, And this probably puts even more scrutiny on

539
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 8: those sorts of things that I view as necessary to

540
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 8: me doing my job, you know. And I tell all

541
00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 8: the people I cover, like I view these as thirty

542
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 8: year relationships. That doesn't mean we're not going to have

543
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 8: ups and downs. That doesn't mean I'm not going to

544
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 8: have to report on stuff that's uncomfortable for you.

545
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,679
Speaker 7: I've had to report on guys I really like being fired.

546
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 8: I've had to report on things that have happened within

547
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 8: the teams where I know the decision makers really well

548
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 8: and it's not going to bode well for them that

549
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,400
Speaker 8: I'm reporting those things. And you try to be as

550
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 8: respectful as you can. And like my guiding light on

551
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 8: it has always been I'm treating these like relationships that

552
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 8: I'm going to have after all of that, you know,

553
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 8: and to build those relationships, Dan, And this is where

554
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,239
Speaker 8: I'm us bring it back around. You know, you have

555
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 8: to get to know these people as you would anyone

556
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 8: else in your life, you know, and so we all

557
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 8: find ways to build relationships with these people.

558
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 7: And you know, it's funny.

559
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 8: I've used this with a I don't want to be

560
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 8: crass about it, but I've used this line with journalism

561
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 8: classes before, because I think, you know, college kids relate

562
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 8: to this. I mean, it's it's sort of like hitting

563
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 8: on a girl, like build a source. Building in the

564
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 8: NFL is sort of like hitting on a girl in

565
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 8: the bar. You know what I mean like, and here's why,

566
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 8: because there's a little awkwardness to it, and the other.

567
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 7: Party knows exactly what you want from them, and.

568
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 8: So you know, you know, so you but you have

569
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 8: to build trust with those as barriers, you know what

570
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 8: I mean, like, and so.

571
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 7: You know, you do you do your best to do that.

572
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 8: And I do think like the result of this, again,

573
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 8: regardless of what actually happened here is is there's more

574
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 8: scrutiny on these sorts of relationships for sure.

575
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've mentioned this before that I got close to

576
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 2: Mark McGuire and Jason Jomby and then I had to

577
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 2: report on Mark McGuire and Jason Jomby, and I think

578
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 2: they had they had a problem. I think it hurt

579
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 2: them that I was saying things. I had to do

580
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 2: my job, and it's it's something that gave me, you know,

581
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 2: a real awakening of you can get close, but you

582
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 2: have to let them know that there's a line of demarcation.

583
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 2: And I don't know if I did that very well

584
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 2: because now I'm reporting on Mark McGuire in front of

585
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 2: Congress and Jason Jealmbie with steroids, and it affected our

586
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 2: relationship from then on.

587
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 7: And there's a job to do, and I've had this.

588
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 7: I've had to explain this to some guys, you know.

589
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 8: I remember, like in two thousand and twenty and sixteen,

590
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 8: I reported on what was happening in the Rams building

591
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 8: and it was a mess. It was, you know, their

592
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 8: first year in LA and the thing was crumbling. And

593
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 8: I remember like one of the things that kind of

594
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 8: came out of that was the people in the building

595
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 8: were referring to it as Rams Junior High, which was

596
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 8: what everybody plucked from that story. And Jeff Fisher wound

597
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 8: up getting fired, you know, two or three days later,

598
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 8: and relationship with Jeff and a ton of other people

599
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 8: in that building, and I had to make those phone

600
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 8: calls ahead of publishing it, like hey, here's what I have,

601
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 8: and there'd be like kind of the awkward oh okay,

602
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 8: you know, and you go through that.

603
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 7: And like you you you know, you know, you.

604
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 8: Know, it's your job to do these things, and what

605
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 8: I what I try to tell them, Dan, like a

606
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 8: lot of times, you know, in the aftermath and sometimes

607
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 8: even ahead of time, is like, look, I know it

608
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 8: sucks that this is going to be out there, but

609
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 8: you would rather have me reporting this story, you know,

610
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 8: in full and responsibly than it getting out there in

611
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 8: some other way. And you know, like I think that

612
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 8: that's the thing that you try to get people to understand,

613
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 8: is you do have a job to do. But if

614
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 8: there's something that's going to get out there that's not great,

615
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 8: and it's going to get out there regardless, the relationship

616
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 8: that you have with the reporter can actually help you

617
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 8: as a subject because now that it's not that that

618
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 8: that story is going to be whitewashed, is that that

619
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 8: story is going to get out there in a more

620
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 8: responsible way than it might otherwise. And you know, I

621
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 8: think that that's again like part of the give and

622
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 8: take when it comes to all of.

623
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 2: This stuff, anything happening prior to Thursday.

624
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 8: I mean, I think if there are trade up situations,

625
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 8: a lot of them are going to happen on the clock.

626
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 8: You know, there are some veteran names floating around out

627
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 8: there that.

628
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 7: I think could be moved.

629
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 8: We talked about the AJA thing that's not going to

630
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 8: happen until after June first.

631
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 4: But if you were going to bet what the Steelers

632
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 4: are going to do.

633
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 8: You know as far as like who that what, like

634
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 8: whether they take a quarterback on Thursday.

635
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 4: Aaron Rodgers situation, right, So.

636
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 8: I think Aaron Rodgers is going to come back. I

637
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 8: but I don't think they have assurances of it. And

638
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 8: I think one thing that helps is last year's situation.

639
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 8: They were in the same spot. I mean, you know,

640
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:05,920
Speaker 8: in May, the quarterback room was Will Howard and Mason Rudolph.

641
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 8: Once again, the quarterback room is Will Howard and Mason Rudolph.

642
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 8: So like, I think the one thing that people don't

643
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 8: know about this is like Aaron has been really respectful

644
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:21,280
Speaker 8: about communicating with people. And last year, from March until

645
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 8: he signed in June, he was on the phone with

646
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,479
Speaker 8: Mike Tomlin every week, and he was talking with Arthur Smith,

647
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 8: who was the offensive coordinator at the time, periodically, and

648
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 8: like he was respectful of what they had to do.

649
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 8: And I would be surprised if he's not doing the

650
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 8: same thing, which is why I think the Steelers have

651
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 8: been relatively.

652
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 7: Content and calm about this whole thing.

653
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 8: And so for Mike McCarthy, I think, you know, keeping

654
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 8: those conversations private.

655
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 7: We all know how Aaron can be.

656
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 8: Keeping those conversations privates the most important thing, and the

657
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 8: same way it was for Mike Tomlin. And you know,

658
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 8: my guess would be we get in Aaron Rodgers back

659
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 8: in twenty twenty sixth and to me, like the tell

660
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 8: here and maybe we don't.

661
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 7: I don't think any final decision has been made.

662
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 8: But to me, the tell is how they doubled down

663
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,879
Speaker 8: on on on on the older core. Again, like this

664
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 8: looked on paper like the year that maybe you would

665
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,760
Speaker 8: you know, you would hit a hard reset instead.

666
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 7: You know, with the older guys.

667
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 8: They have your TJ watch or Cam Hayward's even DK

668
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 8: metcalf is getting a little bit older, you know, Jalen Ramsey,

669
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 8: you're they they they brought in guys like rico'dowell who's

670
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,399
Speaker 8: going into his eighth year at running back. They brought

671
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,240
Speaker 8: in Jamel Deane, a thirty year old corner. They brought

672
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 8: in Michael Pittman, who is you know, on the at

673
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 8: the very end of his twenties.

674
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:42,280
Speaker 7: From the Colts.

675
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 8: So they've done things to double down on the existing core,

676
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 8: which at least makes it looks like they're like they're

677
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:49,879
Speaker 8: like they're planning.

678
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 7: To have a veteran quarterback at the Trader.

679
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 2: If I sent the over under on quarterbacks taken in

680
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 2: the first round at one and a half, I'd go under.

681
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 8: I think it's Mendo Simpson in the second round, and

682
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 8: then maybe not another one until.

683
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 7: The fourth round.

684
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 4: Oh, okay, I think so Simpson.

685
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 8: I think here's the interesting thing with Simpson. So like

686
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 8: I think that there's a there's an optics thing for

687
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 8: the Jets and Cardinals here, Like say, like the Jets

688
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 8: and Cardinals like them, right, And like I think you

689
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:22,720
Speaker 8: have to consider if you trade up to twenty five

690
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 8: or twenty four, twenty whatever it is to get him, Now,

691
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 8: does that take you off the market for a quarterback

692
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 8: in twenty seven whereas if you just take them in

693
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 8: the second round, you can double back and take another

694
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 8: swing next year, you know. Like I think there's there's

695
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 8: a lot of history of that, Like if you look,

696
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 8: you know, in twenty seventeen, the Browns took to Sean

697
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 8: Kaiser from Notre Dame in the second round, came back

698
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 8: the next year and took Baker Mayfield first overall. Same

699
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,760
Speaker 8: thing for the Panthers in twenty ten. They took Jimmy

700
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,799
Speaker 8: Classan in the second round, came back and took Cam

701
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 8: Newton first overall the next year. So I think Ty

702
00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:00,319
Speaker 8: Simpson for someone could be a swing where it's let's

703
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,120
Speaker 8: get him in the building, see what he is for

704
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 8: a year, and maybe it works and then great, we've

705
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:05,480
Speaker 8: got our quarterback.

706
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 7: Or you know, he isn't.

707
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 8: Quite what we want long term, and now we've got

708
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 8: a guy who can be a long term backup for

709
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,399
Speaker 8: him for us, and we take our quarterback next year.

710

744
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 9: liberated himself in a huge way which could be a

745
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 9: problem for the rest of the tour moving forward. And

746
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 9: he was taking a beating for by the way and

747
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:17,920
Speaker 9: held his ground, defeating him, defending the tour and just so,

748
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,120

Speaker 9: Then dude sees his jersey being worn by a little

751
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,680
Speaker 9: girl in the stands, so he takes the ball, motions

752
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 9: it to her, throws the ball. Meanwhile, the ball is

753
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 9: then bought by her brother, who hands the ball to her.

754
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 9: Immediately she gives them the biggest hug. It was awesome, man.

755
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 9: I mean, if that doesn't give you a smile, I

756
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 9: don't know what will. And where's some weekend and goes

757
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,760
Speaker 9: to the NBA. I mean games this week and seemed

758
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 9: like effort was optional. I mean, both the Suns and

759
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 9: the Sixers lose by thirty and then the number one

760
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 9: seed Pistons lose to you know, I mean on their

761
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 9: own floor and never lebie. Most of these games were

762
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 9: done by halftime, no drama, and I mean it was

763
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 9: just not good.

764
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, can you be a bad team and make the playoffs?

765
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 2: I I'm watching the Phoenix Suns and I just state

766
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 2: they're just not threatening. David in Ohio, Hi David, what's
