15
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 4: jersey that just looks always like actually wearing it with

16
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,120

Speaker 4: You got, the dancers, you got the crop be is doing.

20

Speaker 4: They're doing it big. I gotta give it to them.

21
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 5: Well, this is the thing that the NFL wanted during

22
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 5: the Super Bowl and Los Angeles kind of leaned into it.

23
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: But this is a very Atlanta performance.

24
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 5: Yes, as you said, you may do pre Ludacris, the

25
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 5: Clark Atlanta Marching Band, yep, and several other people, I'm sure.

26
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 4: And for those who don't know, you know, HBCUs you

27
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 4: got it looks like it might be a maybe a

28
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 4: local high clerk.

29
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: Is that Clark?

30
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 4: That's Clark there, So you got Clark, You've got some

31
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 4: other folks, you got to some maybe just higher dancers.

32
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 3: Like it's a full on thing out there.

33
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:36,479
Speaker 5: Uh.

34
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 3: And it looks like a blast.

35
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 4: And so credit them for kind of embracing this and

36
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 4: kind of embracing the Atlanta culture saying this is where

37
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 4: we are, this is you know, this is the flavor

38
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 4: of what you're gonna get.

39
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 3: And I think it's like.

40
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 5: That, And not to be labor the point, but I

41
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 5: think that when you see more and more and more

42
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 5: people complaining about the way games are presented, the way

43
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 5: games are shown, I think that Fox does a really

44
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 5: really good job like of and not to even just

45
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 5: be a company man, but Fox makes game feel important,

46
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 5: Like when you watch this big performance before this game,

47
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 5: it's like.

48
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 3: Oh, this is like the awesome I might have to

49
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 3: watch this. You know what I mean? When you see this,

50
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 3: I have to have.

51
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 5: To check this out the rickwood Field performance before watching that.

52
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 5: I was there watching that performance live at the game,

53
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 5: the Lego season game.

54
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 3: At Rookwood Field.

55
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 5: And when you play a game like baseball, and I

56
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 5: know that generally in this timeslot, words like this are forbidden,

57
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 5: so you have to dump it.

58
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 3: I apologize. I know where you're about to go.

59
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 5: But when you play a game like baseball, the more

60
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 5: event type games you can have, the better because nobody's

61
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 5: tuning in for one sixty two, including rub Pulk.

62
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 3: If it ain't the Yankees, he ain't tuning it. Oops.

63
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 3: Did I say that a loud And.

64
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 5: So the more event you can feel this feels like

65
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 5: just watching this, well watching it with the sound off.

66
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 5: But I was in the same position for two of

67
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 5: these games, so I know it feels way bigger than.

68
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 3: The NBA Finals. So you beat me to it.

69
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 4: We had this conversation on our show, Robin and I

70
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 4: and I said, the NBA is not having a logo

71
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 4: on the floor, and I know it's been some years,

72
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 4: but not having them on the floor, not showing the

73
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 4: intro so much so that what do they do later

74
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 4: in the series, rob G they say, oh, bring the

75
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 4: intros back, bring them back. I'm sorry, my bad, Like,

76
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 4: how are you not making this feel like something?

77
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 3: Make it?

78
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 4: Bring out the intros, bring out the again the trophy

79
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 4: that this the bring I said, performances. I said, dude,

80
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 4: why are they not pregame performances? Why are they not

81
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 4: halftime performing? Maybe not every game, but maybe game one

82
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 4: game something like it. You just feel this should feel

83
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 4: like it matters. And I completely was blown away that

84
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 4: the NBA, of all the leagues would miss that because

85
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 4: historically that was what they're really good at. It was

86
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 4: kind of the hip or they know they have a

87
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 4: younger audience and they had all the hip performances and

88
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 4: tried to be more cool and relevant.

89
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 3: So they're missing it and MLB's doing a great job.

90
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 4: What's eats to this conversation we're about to get into

91
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 4: By the way, Adam kaplan coming up in about twenty

92
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 4: five minutes or so, about forty minutes or so, we're

Speaker 4: version posted right after we get off the air. All right,

107
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 4: So Rob Manfree speaking of MLB, he is defending and

108
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: how he has had to been the rules a little

109
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 4: bit when it comes to selection to a replacement in

110
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 4: the MLB All Star Game. Rob GM come to you

111
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 4: tee us up on this one because I want to

112
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 4: hear where we both are see on the same page

113
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 4: when it comes to Rob manfre his decisions.

114
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 3: Now, Mark, you were here for this day.

115
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 6: But a couple of weeks ago, we had a pretty

116
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 6: strong U two moment debating whether or not it was

117
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 6: fair that Clayton Kershaw got in as a Legends choice

118
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 6: for the All Star Game. Well about a couple days later,

119
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 6: Rob Manfred turned down one on its head, and no

120
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 6: one even cares about Clayton Curst anymore because Brewers rookie

121
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 6: pitcher Jacob Mizerowski, who has only pitched in five MLB

122
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 6: games so far in his young career, was added as

123
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 6: a replacement All Star pitcher for the National League, and

124
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 6: he got a lot of people up in arms, so

125
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,919
Speaker 6: much so that several Philadelphia Phillies players went on record.

126
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 6: This was not anonymous sourcing. This was not let me

127
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,280
Speaker 6: tell a reporter, who's gonna tell someone else. No, they

128
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 6: said themselves that they had a problem with it. Trey

129
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 6: Turner on Miz getting in, what a joke, that's effing terrible,

130
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 6: Nick Castianos, it's turning into the Savannah bananas, right. So

131
00:05:54,720 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 6: it's been a big thing across baseball. So last night a.

132
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 5: Quick point of order, because is there any reason why

133
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 5: it's just Philly's talking out that the Philly gets snubbed

134
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 5: for this.

135
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 6: Well, they had two guys who they believe guys, so

136
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 6: they were the ones who were most public about it.

137
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 6: So last night MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred was asked about

138
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 6: it because it is a controversial decision, and he said,

139
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 6: quote the excitement that was going to be generated the

140
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 6: fanagers and seeing this guy, you know, it's something that

141
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 6: we couldn't ignore. And he added later, do I want

142
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 6: to make it the norm where guys only pitching five

143
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 6: games in or not? I don't, but I believe it

144
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 6: was the right decision here given where we are.

145
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 3: All right, this is an easy one for me.

146
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 4: Rob Manfred is in his sug Night death Row era.

147
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 4: This is where if you recall, Yo, you don't want

148
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 4: to you want this, You want that come to death Row,

149
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 4: come to MLB. And he is feeling himself right now.

150
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 4: And I'll tell you why he's coming off some successes, Martin.

151
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 4: He's coming off. Man, what were we kind of just

152
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 4: say in a moment ago baseball got a little boring?

153
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 3: Right, y'all say it got a little boring? Okay, I

154
00:06:59,360 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 3: understand that.

155
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 4: Bam, get rid of this line shift no, no, no player,

156
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 4: you gonna have to defend. You know you're saying baseball

157

Speaker 4: thing on up. Brouh bitch, baseball's going a little bit

159
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 4: all right. Let me check you see if you've got

160
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 4: what you got, You got guitar, you got any resident

161
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 4: on your hand. He has been cleaning and changing the

162
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 4: game a bit, and I think it's starting to get

163
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 4: some of it is starting to have an impact. We're

164
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 4: starting to feel it. The games are faster, more compelling. Also,

165
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,600
Speaker 4: one of the things if historically said, since I was

166
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 4: doing sports radio, even at the other places, that baseball

167
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 4: loves the ghost of the year's past, Martin, you wouldn't

168
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 4: know who was playing right now cause the first thing

169
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 4: tell me about the game to day ball.

170
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 3: Before I get to.

171
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 4: That, man, let me tell you about Ted Williams, Jo Demagio,

172
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 4: Babe Ruth. Let me tell you about all these old guys,

173
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 4: Willie Mays, Willie Mays, Willie As and Hank Aaron and

174
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 4: just going and on. They always were you like, dude,

175
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 4: But you got some great players right now currently doing

176
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 4: amazing things. And then you watch all Star games. It

177
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 4: was never like what we just watched. It was wheeling

178
00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 4: out guys. And I'm not saying you don't respect then

179
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 4: the past. Absolutely you do that, but you don't solely

180
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 4: do that and baseball was solely living in the past.

181
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 4: So I think Rob Manford is feeling himself that some

182
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 4: of the decisions he has made have worked made the

183
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 4: game more popular. Some of he kind of just looked

184
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 4: into Yankees Dodger's First Time, ain'tyone you fell into that

185
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 4: ended up being compelling series. You got show, Hey, you

186
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 4: got Aaron Judge, you got all these big names, you

187
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 4: got all these all stars that just fell in his lap.

188
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 4: So I think he's continuing with the motim the momentum.

189
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 4: So I think this is a decision. I like what

190
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 4: he said there. He said, look, I'm gonna keep it real.

191
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 4: This is about the fact that this kid throws one

192
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 4: hundred and three hundred and four miles per hour. People

193
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 4: want to see it. I might not do it again.

194
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 4: I hope I don't have to. And mind you, he

195
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 4: made them an offer they shouldn't reviews. He asked a

196
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 4: couple of the pictures. Martine said, Hey, are you gonna

197
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 4: guarantee me any He said, well, no, I just pitched

198
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 4: on Sunday.

199
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 3: I don't think I'll ever then get out. You gonna

200
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 3: do it guarantee any?

201
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 4: Well, no, I don't want to guarantee, because I just

202
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 4: don't then you ain't pitching, And so he is in

203
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 4: his death row, my boss, the Godfather Air right now,

204
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 4: doing what he believes is best for the game, trying

205
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 4: to raise the platform of the game, make the game

206
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 4: hit relevant. And I'm not mad at him because part

207
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 4: of that is you're gonna make mistakes. Part of that

208
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 4: is you're not gonna always get it right, but at

209
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 4: least you're trying, and baseball become stagnant for some time,

210
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 4: hadn't tried things, wasn't switching it up. So I'm not

211
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 4: mad at sug Manfred right now as he's trying to

212
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 4: do some things.

213
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 5: The only beef I have with this for real, I

214
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 5: don't have problem with Suarez and Sanchez missing because to

215
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 5: go on it's like for the Phillies, whole team.

216
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 3: Damn near to go on record, I was like, wait,

217
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 3: let me go that the Ranger. Suarez.

218
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 5: We actually got in a big argument two weeks ago

219
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 5: on these air because I was like, he leads the

220
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 5: major League in era. Doesn't qualify he didn't qualify because

221
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 5: I was like, no, I just saw it.

222
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 3: He has a two ERA.

223
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 5: He's like, he's one of the top five didn't qualify,

224
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 5: not enough, not enough innings pitched to qualify, and it

225
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 5: ended up being a big blowout between me and Muncie.

226
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 3: Uh it was it was long.

227
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 5: I got to put that podcast Chris for Sanchez, he

228
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 5: pitched Star this weekend.

229
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 3: He wasn't gonna be available.

230
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 5: So if you're not gonna be available and you just

231
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 5: want to have like the All Star the All Star ceremonial,

232
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 5: all right, cool whatever, but you gotta be available to go.

233
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 5: My beef with this is like I have a problem

234
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 5: with Jacob Manzerowski over Won Soto, not over Rangers Suarez,

235
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 5: Like I'm I think you've won Soto should be an

236
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 5: All Star hit the first half that he's having, I

237
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 5: know it started out.

238
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 3: Slow, but also the and the final point in the

239
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 3: first point.

240
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 5: To rob you when I was talking about this, we

241
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 5: have already made it is already established in baseball. These

242
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 5: are not the best sixty players. There's one representative from

243
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 5: every team. There's all this so like like Hobby Bayas

244
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 5: is a center fielder for the like crazy, like is

245
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 5: he that?

246
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 7: No?

247
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 5: He's had to be like so some things about this

248
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 5: are gonna be a little off year to year.

249
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 3: Some things about this would be a little weird year

250
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 3: to year.

251
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 5: And if it ends up that Paul Skins has five

252
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 5: All Star Games when he really only had three good

253
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 5: years or something like that, three years of winning, I'm

254
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 5: not gonna cry about it. If it ends up to

255
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 5: Jacob Minzowski ends up being the Brewers All Star for

256
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 5: the next two years and the Brewers are a five

257
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 5: hundred team in the Nano Central, I'm not gonna cry

258
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 5: about that because to.

259
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 3: Me, you're not.

260
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 5: The chances that the Colorado Rockies have one of the

261
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 5: best sixty players in baseball right now. Hard me to believe.

262
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 5: Heart of the sixty, can they get sixty wins? I's saying,

263
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 5: if you're doing our you know, to filling out the

264
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 5: All Star roster, hards me to believe absolutely. And I

265
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 5: want to go to Wa Soto.

266
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 3: I agree.

267
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,319
Speaker 4: We sat here, I don't know a week week and

268
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 4: a half ago, me and Rob talking about that, and

269
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 4: I said, that's the trouble that comes with the money,

270
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 4: because immediately right off the bat you mentioned he started

271
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 4: off slowly. He wasn't where you think he'd be because immediately

272
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 4: we're going to be equated to money. And he had

273
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 4: an amazing. June was probably one of the best players,

274
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 4: and he won the Player of the Month for June,

275
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 4: and then you can still go, well, well he started

276
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 4: off slow, or well he's not doing he should be

277
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 4: number one, number two, number three, and the stats because

278
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,559
Speaker 4: you just simply equated to the money. So Juan Soto

279
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 4: absolutely should have been an All Star, and I think

280
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 4: moving forward he's gonna have to keep that in mind,

281
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 4: that that's the responsibility. That's the challenges I should say

282
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 4: that comes when you sign, you know, three quarters of

283
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 4: a billion dollar deal, is that the expectations are crazy

284
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 4: and you kind of have those moments where maybe you

285
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 4: shouldn't have talked about missing your old boo. Talking about,

286
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 4: you know, missing playing with the Yankees and Judge and

287
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 4: Will is not the same.

288
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 3: I'm not playing with them, but I'm not to cut

289
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 3: you off. Maybe I'm just too big of a football fan.

290
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 5: I listen what to talk about in the media and

291
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 5: what you do on the diamond.

292
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 3: Those are two different things to me. You want to

293
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 3: be immunited to.

294
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 5: Be the number one, the MVP gndidate that I can

295
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 5: rock with you Aaron Rodgers, But like Juan Soto, only

296
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 5: seven players in Major League Baseball history to the All

297
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 5: Star break, recorded at least twenty home runs, seven walks,

298
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 5: fifteen doubles, and ten stolen bases.

299
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 3: Seven players in a history of baseball.

300
00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 5: And he's telling me that the guy that's pitched five

301
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 5: and made five starts or made five appearances is what

302
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 5: we're doing.

303
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 3: That's crazy.

304
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 4: But so the first half of that, I'll reply with,

305
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 4: that's why I go back to the fan perception of

306
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 4: money and what you're doing, especially when you have a

307
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 4: slow start, right, because now you've been covering sports long

308
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 4: enough to know this is one of the worst things

309
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 4: about sports, but it's kind of a fact if you

310
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 4: do something wrong or just this is how you are.

311
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 3: We kind of perceived that forever for you.

312
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 4: For instance, Lebron didn't take some shots or missed a

313
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 4: shot kind of early on its clutch, then he would

314
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 4: want to be very clutch. But in our minds, Lebron

315
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 4: ain't clutch, right because those first few times he either

316
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 4: missed it or he passed it up, or he didn't

317
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 4: shoot it, and we wanted to do so permanently. In

318
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 4: our mind, Lebron ain't clutch, and it happens all the time.

319
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 4: So I think people want so to all this money

320
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 4: starts off slowly, teams not winning a bunch, and I

321
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 4: think people they're not doing what we do, coming in

322
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 4: for a living, checking the stats, checking this what we're

323
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,199
Speaker 4: gonna talk about, having meetings, you know, preparing for a show.

324
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 4: Think they're like, I mean, I know he's been better,

325
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 4: but he ain't been that good. And I think that

326
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 4: just becomes the perception he ain't worth all that money.

327
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 4: You want to talk about perception, I'm sorry, I don't ere.

328
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 5: You know, if I just saw this back to back

329
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 5: plays in this game, Caitlyn Clark got the ball stolen

330
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 5: from her and then turned over the next possession shot

331
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 5: a three over a double team, and it just popped.

332
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 3: She is one for twenty nine.

333
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 5: On three pointers on the road since she's been back,

334
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 5: but she's in three point contest.

335
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 4: I mentioned that when I were Steve said that, I said, dude,

336
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 4: she's shooting twenty nine on this was surely he's less

337
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 4: now twenty nine percent of the season, twenty six percent

338
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 4: since she's been back from injury. And by the way,

339
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 4: I'm glad you mentioned that because it has nothing to

340
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 4: do with the emailbing Rod Mamford but I will say

341
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 4: Caitlyn Clark do got to get some of the smoke

342
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 4: because we will sing her praises, which justifiably so when

343
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 4: she's playing well and she's doing amazing things she does.

344
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 4: Because if anybody else was doing this, if Steph Curry

345
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 4: was one for twenty nine, we'd be going crazy.

346
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 5: And to be honest, Steph Curry could go one for

347
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 5: twenty nine and if you wanted to be in the

348
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,840
Speaker 5: three point Contest, nobody would blink at the All Star break,

349
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, Like.

350
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 3: Depending on how it happened. This is kind of coming.

351
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 5: Up on the All Star break for the WNBA, so

352
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 5: it's kind of going into.

353
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 3: The stretch of it.

354
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 5: But like if it was if Steph Curry started the

355
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 5: first month of the year one for twenty nine from

356
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 5: three by the All Star break, if he wanted to,

357
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 5: he's in the three point Contest.

358
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 3: That's kind of my point with Juan Soto.

359
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 5: It's like, at a certain point, these guys are the

360
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 5: establishment of what your league is. The WNBA is putting

361
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 5: Caitlin Clark in the three point Contest this year, not

362
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 5: because she is one of the best three point shooters

363
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 5: in the League this year.

364
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 3: She is putting it in. It is that it is

365
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 3: a bet on.

366
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,640
Speaker 5: The future of what could happen, you know what I'm saying,

367
00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 5: of what they believe will happen.

368
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 3: I don't know why.

369
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 4: I don't know what Juan Soto has either done or

370
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 4: rod Manford just felt like he needed another pitcher, and

371
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 4: that was kind of the direction I'm gonna go, and

372
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 4: I want to, you know again, put miz in and

373
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 4: so they can see some spectacular for a inning, see

374
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 4: somebody do something different. We'll have guys who can hit,

375
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 4: we'll have guys who can feel, but we won't have

376
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 4: necessarily guys who are throwing one hundred and three hundred

377
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 4: and four miles power.

378
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 3: So maybe that's what he's mixing it up.

379
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 4: And that goes back to my original point that he

380
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 4: is in his death row Sugar Knight.

381
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 3: I'm doing stuff. Hey, Pete Rose, you just die all right?

382
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 4: Y'all can vote him in now if you choose to,

383
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 4: whether you want to get him off the band list,

384
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 4: like I mean, is it is. I'm just making these

385
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 4: gangster decisions. Molding again. Some of it's work sped up,

386
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 4: the game change, the line shift, offenses going fell into

387
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 4: the Dodgers Yankees, the whole Pete Rose thing. So he

388
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 4: is making some of these decisions right now, and this

389
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 4: is being another one, and Wan Soda has to fill

390
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 4: some type of way though. I bet the second half

391
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 4: of the season he's got to go on a tear

392
00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 4: because he's got to feel slighted from both the fan

393
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 4: perspective and then obviously Red Manfred, Rob Manford, or you

394
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 4: could also just say Kelvin, I'm all right, why them

395
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 4: checks cash either way, which, by the way, that was

396
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 4: another thing he didn't have to say, Rob and I

397
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 4: did agree when they asked him by all he feels,

398
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 4: you know how missing the game and he was like, man,

399
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 4: you know almost money I'm missing out of Yeah.

400
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 5: I mean again, he didn't do himself any favors.

401
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 3: Like you gotta know the climate.

402
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 4: People are losing their jobs left and right right now,

403
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,919
Speaker 4: people struggle busting everything's up. Sometimes it's just shows, kay,

404
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 4: They say, yeah, man, I really wanted to represent the

405
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 4: Mets in the city and put them on my back

406
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 4: end and be an All Star game. Bruh, seven hundred mil.

407
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 4: That one hundred and twenty if you were to be

408
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 4: on part of the winning team. You'll be all right, yep,

409
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 4: funny enough.

410
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 5: I had a lot of conversations about one so though

411
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 5: over the last five days with people from the Dominican Republic. Yeah,

412
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 5: fifty fifty to fifty. Really a lot of them are

413
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,400
Speaker 5: Yankees fans too. Oh yeah, yeah, but that just goes

414
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,879
Speaker 5: to show you there's pictures and posters and murals of

415
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 5: Fred Andel Tattis everywhere, right, you know, it's interesting fifty

416
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 5: and again completely anec tootal, not reporting, no, but I

417
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 5: liked it though.

418
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 4: All right, on the way a game, we got Adam

419
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 4: Kaplan coming up in just a little bit. Plus there

420
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 4: is somebody who is playing right now, playing some good

421
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 4: football in San Francisco, but he needs to worry about

422
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 4: that instead of some other things. That's what Martin says.

449
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 4: bottle of the league myself. All right, Rodin, real quick

450
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 4: before we get to Steve here, one's trending. You have

451
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 4: thoughts on Jennings, war receiver for the forty nine Ers.

452
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just Juwan Jennings is in the middle of

453
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 5: the latest edition of the San Francisco forty nine Ers

454
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 5: contract hold Out Shaga.

455
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 3: They do one every year around this time.

456
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 5: It's one of the NFL's favorite movies, but this one,

457
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,160
Speaker 5: And generally I'm with the guys on this, But if

458
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 5: I'm Juwan Jennings, I think it's a little short sighted

459
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 5: to demand to be traded unless you, first of all,

460
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 5: less you know you're getting that new bag from a new.

461
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 3: Team, because.

462
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 5: If you ball out right now, if you have fourteen

463
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 5: good games and nothing no major massive injury, which again risk.

464
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 5: Look at some of this money that these free agent

465
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 5: wide receivers are getting, like when the guy's time to

466
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 5: re up, because guys like Justin Jefferson and so on,

467
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,679
Speaker 5: they're never hitting the open market, Nope. Terry McLaurin is

468
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 5: fighting for his life for a new contract right now,

469
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 5: like and it looks it looks, it looks genuinely sad

470
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 5: in his face that he's not getting it.

471
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 3: Donald A. Wi that was a sad presser for sure.

472
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,439
Speaker 5: And I just think that if Juwan Jennings goes and

473
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 5: has a you know, twelve hundred yard, you know, thirteen

474
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 5: touchdown year, which I think is possible for him, especially

475
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 5: in the San Francisco offense that's getting the Christian McCaffrey back,

476
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,520
Speaker 5: but not the Brandon Ayuk. And like you know what

477
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 5: I'm saying, Like you're gonna be receiver number one, You're

478
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,400
Speaker 5: gonna should be able to maneuver pretty well throughout this

479
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,679
Speaker 5: thing in an NFC West that's up and down. I

480
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 5: think that he stands to make a ton more money

481
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 5: if he plays twelve thirteen more games, whether it be

482
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 5: San Francisco elsewhere.

483
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,399
Speaker 4: I'm with you in theory. I think the only problem

484
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 4: is specifically the sport that he's in. And I think

485
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 4: we've seen where guys get banged up. They use that

486
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 4: against you. Man, You nicked up a little bit, and

487
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,080
Speaker 4: they offer you some money, and it is good money,

488
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 4: but it ain't great money. And you can or you

489
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 4: can be spectacular what you say you want twelve hundred cool,

490
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 4: you want ten touchdowns?

491
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 3: Cool?

492
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 4: You can get t Higgins where they keep just getting

493
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 4: all right, we're gonna franchise you, We gonna franchise you.

494
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 4: And you're sitting up here, putting your health at risk,

495
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 4: balling out and just getting money, which is good money,

496
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 4: but it's not the long term money you're looking for,

497
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 4: so I hear you.

498
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 5: But even still right now, t Higgins is the ninth

499
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 5: ninth paid highest receiver in the NFL after that new contract.

500
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 4: So that was my point when you got to strike

501
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 4: when the irons hot, and I think for him coming

502
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 4: off all almost a thousand yards and then produced very well,

503
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,640
Speaker 4: and as you mentioned, looking like you're gonna be the guy.

504
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,959
Speaker 4: I think going into the season knowing I'm going to

505
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 4: be the guy, and with the risk that come with that,

506
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 4: I think he's like, hit me up now, hit me

507
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:47,400
Speaker 4: some money now.

508
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 3: But that's the challenge, honestly, Martin.

509
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,120

531
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:44,320

532
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 3: How you doing? Guys could have talked to you.

533
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,119
Speaker 9: I just want to let everyone know Dan Byer and

Speaker 9: I will be hosting together on FSR on Sunday at

Speaker 9: twelve eastern, so looking forward to that.

536
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,840
Speaker 3: We ask Gus, you just told everybody good stuff there?

537
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 9: Why not?

538
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 3: All right?

539
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 4: So, Adam, I want to jump into sure somewhere I

540
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 4: didn't expect to jump into. They didn't wake up thinking

541
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 4: I'll be talking about the Jets all of a sudden,

542
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 4: acting like they're the Oklahoma City Thunder just cashing everybody out.

543
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 3: Let's start there for me with the Jets.

544
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,639
Speaker 4: A couple of moves that they made, and more so

545
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,959
Speaker 4: the timing some Starbarck Garrett Wilson, of course, star receiver

546
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 4: there he gets a four year, one hundred and thirty

547
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 4: million dollars deal, ninety guarantee.

548
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 3: You know, it's important to start there, you know, we

549
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 3: at least hit that.

550
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 4: And then you go to Sauce Garden, who's been spectacular

551
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 4: a couple of years into the league, one twenty four year,

552
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 4: one twenty point four, but again eighty five point six

553
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 4: of that guaranteed.

554
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 3: They have done.

555
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 4: Something they normally doesn't do, which is kind of jump

556
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 4: ahead of these guys, taking care guys a little earlier

557
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 4: than they normally would. Obviously, two are their studs on

558
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 4: both sides of the ball there. But what do you

559
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 4: make of the Jets trying to say, hey, we got

560
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 4: justin fields, we got some guys who are really already

561
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 4: here talented.

562
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 3: Let's lock this thing down. What are you making these

563
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 3: moves from the Jets?

564
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 9: All right, So a couple things here. First of all.

565
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 9: An important note on what you're bringing up is that

566
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 9: now is this this coaching staff, but Muji, the GM

567
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 9: Darren Mujie who came from Denver. He didn't draft either

568
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 9: of those players, right, good point, but they identified him

569
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 9: as building box players on offensive defense. And as I

570
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 9: understood it, Garrett Wilson, part of why he wanted to

571
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 9: do this is he he gets he's reunited now with

572
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,199
Speaker 9: Justin Fields, the former teammate at Ohio State. This is

573
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 9: big for him. Now, if they would have signed another quarterback,

574
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 9: you know, could have he waited that that would be speculation.

575
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 9: I don't know that, but I know I've known for

576
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 9: a while that he was really open to getting this

577
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 9: done because he believes that he could grow with a

578
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 9: guy like Fields, who he knows and by the way,

579
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 9: is still pretty young at quarterbacks. So that was big

580
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 9: and soft. Gardner is one of the top corners in

581
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,919
Speaker 9: the league. He becomes the highest paid corner now just

582
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,479
Speaker 9: a little bit in NFL history. It's the way these

583
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 9: things going. And Wilson's thirty two and a half million.

584
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 9: By the way, it's a really good deal and it's

585
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 9: a short term deal, which is smart by him and

586
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,239
Speaker 9: his agent, so he'll be able to you know, in

587
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 9: a couple of years. In three years, if he's doing

588
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 9: really well, you could sign another extension. So it's a

589
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 9: good thing. Man, with all the turnover the Jets had,

590
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 9: firing Joe Douglas, a GM, firing the head coach Robert

591
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 9: Stall in season, I mean, this is a good way

592
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 9: to get things going now.

593
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 5: It seems like the forty nine ers last few years

594
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 5: almost always started getting it going with the offseason with

595
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 5: some contract issues.

596
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 3: Now, Juwan Jennings the most recent edition of this.

597
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 5: But I kind of I'm on the forty nine er

598
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 5: side of this one a bit, Like I feel like

599
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 5: Jawan Jennings has had like one really good year and

600
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,640
Speaker 5: if you put another really good year together here when

601
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 5: you look at some of the numbers, like Chris Godwin

602
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,360
Speaker 5: signing for three years sixty six forty four guaranteed, Stefan

603
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 5: Diggs three years sixty nine million, like, I think Juwan

604
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,919
Speaker 5: Jennings with another good year could be up there with

605
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 5: thirty million dollar receiver for a team in the MANB

606
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:53,879
Speaker 5: San Francisco.

607
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,440
Speaker 9: Yeah, he's a really good player who's been a great

608
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 9: story of development. Seventh round pick of twenty twenty year

609
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 9: did run all that well, tall guy. The tape was good,

610
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 9: but because he was seen as a possession receiver kind

611
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 9: of slow, didn't know how he progressed and every time

612
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 9: he stepped in for the Brandon Ayuku Tour, his ACL

613
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 9: if you remember Ricky Piersoll, unfortunately their first round pick

614
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 9: had the unfortunate issue off the field, which is not

615
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 9: his fault, and so he wasn't ready for the season.

616
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 9: So he got thrown in there, did a great job,

617
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 9: and look they redid his deal a couple of years ago.

618
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 9: He wants more money now. Drew Rosenounce is his agent.

619
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,919
Speaker 9: Drew Rosows just got Jona Smith a new deal or

620
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 9: more money within their trade with the Steelers. So yeah,

621
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,639
Speaker 9: this this is you know, Drew's doing his job. This

622
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 9: one's a little hard to figure out how they they're

623
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 9: going to handle this because Ayuk is making a ton

624
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 9: of money this season, about around twenty seven million right now.

625
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 3: He's coming off.

626
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,359
Speaker 9: ACL reconstruction Piersoll, and this will be his first full season.

627
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 9: They don't run a lot of three receiver sets, so

628
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 9: it's really about, Okay, who are they gonna be the starters?

629
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 9: Depends on Ayuk when he going to be ready. Piersoll's

630
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 9: definitely starting and they really see Jennings guys, to be

631
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 9: honest with this is a really good quality backup. Well

632
00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 9: you're not paying that guy fifteen to twenty million, that's

633
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 9: the way it is. So they're in a kind of

634
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 9: a tough way and they can't afford to trade it

635
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 9: because that on depth. So this is not an easy

636
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 9: situation for the Niners to handle because they never drafted

637
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 9: him to be a starter. It's just that it's kind

638
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,120
Speaker 9: of worked out. He's had to play a lot. So

639
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 9: this one's worth watching. I know he's He's made it

640
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 9: pretty clear if something doesn't get done, he'll probably ask

641
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 9: to be traded.

642
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:33,640
Speaker 3: What do you, Adam, what do you think that's a tough.

643
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 9: Deal man, To be honest with you, it's it's really

644
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 9: they're in a tough spot, the Niners with it.

645
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 5: If heel as a free agent right now, what do

646
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 5: you think the market would would be dictating towards him?

647
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 9: I would say fifteen and eighteen million around there. He's

648
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 9: not a thirty million player, not even close. I mean

649
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,199
Speaker 9: he's a good player though, he really is. He The

650
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 9: knock on him is he's not a burner, right, he's

651
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 9: got goods length and he's been a really hard worker.

652
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 3: He's been very productive.

653
00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 9: It's look the guy wh's the seventh round pick, he's

654
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 9: clearly out upper formed it. But no, he's not that.

655
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 9: He's you know, he's not real explosive. Good player though. Now,

656
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 9: and the other thing is on your question. It also

657
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 9: depends who else is available for agency. But no, he's

658
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 9: not a thirty million player. But now, let's put it

659
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 9: this way, on your question and your point, Let's say

660
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 9: Aiku's not ready for the season. Right, Let's say he

661
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 9: doesn't play a lot this season and Jennings starts thirteen

662
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 9: games and he has over a thousand yards. Now that's

663
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 9: a different story, right, But he's not gonna get there.

664
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 9: They're not planning on that happening. And Ricky Piersoll was

665
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 9: a first round a surprise first round pick last year

666
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,360
Speaker 9: after the extended ay X contract. That and remember they

667
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 9: Deebo last year. That was a surprise with all that.

668
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 4: Hey, he is Adam kaplan on the ID couple myself,

669
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 4: Kevin Washington, Martin Weiss, and for Rob Adam, let me

670
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,479
Speaker 4: go to this one, and I feel like we did

671
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 4: it could have did last week week before TJ. Watt

672
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 4: What the heck is going on in Pittsburgh. They were

673
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 4: held bent on getting Aaron Rodgers. They had note of

674
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 4: the time to figure this thing out with t J. Wattell,

675
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 4: I will get to it. Make sure we get Aaron

676
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 4: Rodgers in the building. Where are we with That was

677
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 4: the latest reading that maybe the latest is that he

678
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 4: wants more years on the deal.

679
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, because he turns thirty one. And look,

680
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 9: he became the highest paid edtrusher at NFL history three

681
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 9: years ago and by the way, he had a hold

682
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 9: in where he was doing very limited work. I expect

683
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 9: that the case if he shows up. I expect that

684
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 9: to be the case until he gets his contract. Now

685
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 9: they've shown a willingness to get this done. The problem

686
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 9: is that he turns thirty one this season, right, he

687
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 9: turns thirty one this fall. You have to be careful,

688
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 9: guys on how much longer you guarantee money past the season.

689
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 9: That's the challenging thing for the Steelers here. And you're right,

690
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 9: they've done a lot. The DK Metcalf deal thirty three

691
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 9: million a season. You mentioned Aaron Rodgers, the acquisition and

692
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 9: then paying Jhono Smith more money, getting Jalen Ramsey in there.

693
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 9: So they've they've done a lot. They want to make

694
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 9: a run over. The Ramsey thing is much more about

695
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 9: the future, not so much of this season. But the

696
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 9: bottom line is they got to have TJ.

697
00:29:58,800 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 3: Watt.

698
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 9: It's as much which I know for fact, they really

699
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 9: like Nick Herbig, who was a draft pick a couple

700
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 9: of years ago. It's been a good story as a

701
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 9: fourth round pick. It's really all about TJ.

702
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 3: Watt.

703
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 9: It's going to be a Hall of Famer, and they

704
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 9: they know they have to work this out. It's it's

705
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 9: not easy. This will be last year. This gonna be

706
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 9: the last deal that he gets done. To figure out

707
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 9: what that looks like in terms of guarantee of money.

708
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 9: When can they get out of it in case, Look, folks,

709
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 9: at thirty three years old, which he turns in two years,

710
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 9: you're typically done playing at edge rush. You gotta be

711
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 9: careful how you structure.

712
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's what they're thinking about right now. And

713
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:32,960
Speaker 4: it's gonna be interesting if he mess around and gets,

714
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 4: you know, on another team. What if he went to

715
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 4: the lines, that'd be amazing. But see he's on understand

716
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 4: though he's under contract. They know that if they if

717
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 4: they would actually trade them and it would be well

718
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 4: more than the first round pick. Where are they going here?

719
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 4: I mean, you try, you want to make a run.

720
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 9: They have not won a playoff game, guys, in nine years,

721
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 9: twenty sixteen.

722
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 4: Which is crazy to think about it because all he

723
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 4: focuses on phone the fact that they either eat by

724
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 4: five hundred or just making into the postseason back of

725
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 4: the postseason win. All Right, Adam, appreciate you as always,

844
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 7: a championship with him, They bought Anthony Davis here. There's

845
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 7: there's no tension here. They were just making sure Luca

846
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 7: felt welcome. Stop trying to divide the locker room because

847
