Welcome to another edition of the 3 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: Around the NFL Podcast. My name is Dan Hanzas, joining 4 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,759 Speaker 1: the room filled with heroes, Mark Sessler, Chris Westling, and 5 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: Greg Rosenthal. What is up, boys? Hey Dan, You guys 6 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: might not be aware, but we had a close call yesterday. 7 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: We almost lost one of our own. I was like, wait, 8 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: did the softball team play? But that's tonight. We'll get 9 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 1: to that. To some softball drama that I wanted. This 10 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: West my Consigliari, my Don Zimmer, we were conferring this morning. 11 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: Uh about some drama the softball team. We'll get to that. 12 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: But I think the most pressing issue is that we 13 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: almost lost our dear Erica tempose last night. Uh in 14 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: a what was described to me by Erica, not you 15 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: shouldn't use these words exactly, but it was kind of 16 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: put out there that it was close to a five 17 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: alarm fire in her apartment building that nearly scorched her alive. 18 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: And but she's here, she's alive. I made it. I 19 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: made it up. Woke up at probably like four or 20 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: four fifteen in the morning. My window is open, there's 21 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: a heat wave at the a C going whatever, And 22 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,119 Speaker 1: I was like, why is there like a dump truck 23 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: outside my window at four in the morning. And then 24 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I smelled smoke and I was like, 25 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: oh my god, that's not a dump truck, that's a 26 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 1: fire truck. So I hop so I hop out of bed, 27 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: like fly out of bed, and I'm thinking, maybe I 28 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: left on the stove or oven, like I got home late, 29 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: maybe I forgot to do something. And nothing's on nothing's 30 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 1: on fire in my actual apartment. But outside of my 31 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: this huge window in my kitchen that overlooks really open window, 32 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: and it was just gray with smoke like smoke, and 33 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: it was coming through. So I was like shutting the windows. 34 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: I'm running around and put like and then I go 35 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: out side and they just put some dramatic music under this. 36 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: By the way, did you have the presence of mind 37 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: to hit the hot butt drop with the whimpering man 38 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: in the background. Seriously, it was so warm, it was 39 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: like it was I've never seen anything like it. Smoke 40 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 1: was like bellowing through my wind closed windows. And I 41 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: went outside and the firefighters are there and they were 42 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: spraying their two dumpsters. Yeah, there's like ten hot guys 43 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: just like spraying. Yeah, it's like spraying shirt under Yeah, 44 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: I had like my retainer in. It was like and 45 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: then I woke up and they I think, like like 46 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: either two homeless guys apparently were awake and saw the 47 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: fire and ran to the fire station and rang the 48 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: bell because there is a fire station around here, right. 49 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: But I talked to them. I talked to them this morning, 50 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: and they did say that they ran to the fire 51 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: station to grab the fire. Talk to the vagrants, yeah, 52 00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: this morning hanging around here. Yeah, yeah, people they're still there. Um, 53 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: but they said that the dumpsters were like set on 54 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: fire by who. Well they don't know. Yeah. Um, up 55 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: my entire wall through yeah yeah, couple. Um, all of 56 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: the walls are scorched, My garage doors scorched, my car 57 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: has burned. Marks. Um, it's a total disaster. And now 58 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: my entire apartment reeks of smoke. Well you're moving, so 59 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: it's perfect timing. What are you moving this weekend? Wow? 60 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: It's almost suspicious. Last Yeah, a detective. I mean, I 61 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: don't know what you would gain out of this. It's 62 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: not like you're getting insurance money for an apartment you're renting, 63 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: but the timing is kind of beautiful. Did it see 64 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: you later? Maybe they did it so I don't get 65 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: my security deposit back. One question for you, because I 66 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: once had cut off getting an apartment in Arizona. I 67 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: started to cook rice and beans, fell asleep. In like 68 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: an hour later, there were some massive knocks on my door. 69 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: I opened the door and it was like beefy fireman 70 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: because my apartment was filled with smoke. The rice and 71 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: beans had burnt, but my clothing for the next like 72 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: month smelled like a like a hideous smoker's nightmare, and 73 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: you couldn't get rid of it no matter how much 74 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: you watch or your clothe. Is your clothing a disaster? 75 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 1: At this point, my whole apartment smells like dead trash fire. 76 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: Do you smell like it right now? I mean, I showered. 77 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: Come in here a second. Yeah, okay, I want to 78 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: smell you. Come on, you're serious, I'm serious. I want 79 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: to save you. Smell like fire or a dumps there. 80 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 1: And even if it had nothing to do with the fire, 81 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: you're covered. Smell act a woman. No, you're fine, You're okay, 82 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: you're fine. So that's good. So it didn't catch everything. Yeah, no, 83 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: my my place is fine. But if those homeless guys 84 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: that potentially set it off didn't go get the firefighters, 85 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: then my entire room and everything, like my house it 86 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: was under my garage essentially in my househould have just 87 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: blown the hell out. And to tie this whole thing together, 88 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: one of those homeless men was the guy that lived 89 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: on Greg's front step for um. Alright, good story. I'm 90 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: glad you're okay, Erica. That is scary fire fire bad 91 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: wise man. Well, he wasn't one of the greatest inventions 92 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: in human history. In trouble without fire invention. Somebody had 93 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: to invent it, just like somebody cracked open the first 94 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: oyster and said, let me eat that. That's true. That 95 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: is a brave person? Ever did that? All right? So 96 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: Ricky's alive. She smells fine. I don't know about the 97 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: rest of her wardrobe. Um, Wednesday, show Mark, you wrote 98 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: a banger? How about that? Some of your favorite games? Ever? Wow? 99 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: That takes work, That takes some actual effort. Well, a 100 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: look behind the curtain. It was meant to be ten 101 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: games and I got five in and it was like 102 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: two thousand words long. So I just made it five games. 103 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, now that's that's that's absolutely the strategy of 104 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: of my writing at this point. It's like we there's 105 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: an off season call. It's like, wait, I'm already at words. 106 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: It's like eight takeaways is now five? Like no one 107 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: knows the difference. It's fine, but I vouched for the 108 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 1: five that I included. Good, we're gonna talk about that. 109 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 1: And speaking of takeaways, um, they announced the Hard Knocks team, 110 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders. I wrote a piece for dot Com. 111 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: We'll get to that as well, talking about the Raiders 112 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: on Hard Knocks. But before we do that, let's uh 113 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: take a spin through the news Morgan for all this 114 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: all off, I'm running Fox two thousand and nineteen. It's 115 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 1: called and turned in from Class Range easy as You're like, Morgan, again, 116 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: is it going to Betty? It is sympathy from the 117 00:06:55,279 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: USA plays, but any funtic victory for the USA? Um? Okay. 118 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: So the United States women's soccer team, who are the 119 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: defending World Cup champions UH defeated Thailand yesterday thirteen to nil. Uh. 120 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: And first of all, there was some um pearl clutching 121 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: about running up the score and I'm curious what you 122 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: guys thoughts on that. But more I don't want to 123 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: sound too like, what is a jingoistic but is this 124 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: yet more evidence that? And I know the overseas listeners 125 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: are gonna come after me at this after this. The 126 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: women are so great, We're so tremendous that we are 127 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: dropping thirteen bombs on these teams. If we just canceled 128 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: the NFL, when the NBA and baseball and just funneled 129 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: all of our might into our soccer program, we could 130 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: be doing this damage on the men's side, right, we'd 131 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: be winning World Cups. Right, Yeah, you're nay. I think 132 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: I think it's more about like maybe twenty years from now. Yeah, 133 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it certainly would help. By It's 134 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: it's also like an infrastructure and a tradition and a 135 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: culture which is hard to just kind of like snap 136 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: your fingers and create. It's one of the reasons in 137 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: four years, right no, yeah, but in twenty years, if 138 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: you have children today, we're all funneled into one sport 139 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: and that was the only sport they were playing. It's 140 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: it's one of the reasons why our women are so 141 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: good is because we do have a culture of women's sports, 142 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: which is superior to uh much of the world and 143 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: even interests, I mean people. I think outside the country, 144 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: you have a hard time realizing, like how popular the 145 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: women's national team is. We've got more Twitter followers and 146 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: the men's team, so we like winners. It's a function 147 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: of timeline. At the beginning, Towards the beginning decades of 148 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: most sports, games are less competitive and there are more blowouts. 149 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: But as the sport evolves, and women's soccer came after 150 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: men's soccer, it gets more and more competitive. So I 151 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: think it's more that women's soccer is still relative in 152 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 1: its infancy compared to men's. So I like your idea, 153 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: but at no point where we ever dominated in men's soccer. 154 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: But other we're getting word men's teams were saying, but 155 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: your plan is your it's a long range plan, and 156 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: it's really one of my plan. Well I know, but 157 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: I like it, But it's a vengeance. We're not going 158 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: to sit in this situation where the men's team, which 159 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: didn't even make it last time, spend the next two 160 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: or three decades and start to done. It seems counterproductive though, 161 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: to hurt our basketball and football. I think let's just 162 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: Why don't you just root for the women? I am, 163 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: I am, of course it cares about But you know what, 164 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: I do care about the man. It's an incredible sport, 165 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 1: especially the World Cup, and it's fun and it's cute. 166 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: Like maybe the men will make it through to the 167 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: next round. No, at some point I'd like to see 168 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: the US soccer men's team make a real run in 169 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: the World Cup. I feel like that would set the 170 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: country on fire. As things stand, though, I feel like 171 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 1: we're kind of we have it in our developmental capabilities 172 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: because we have so much talent. Going to other last 173 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: time was embarrassing for the men, right, but but but 174 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: let the women can set the thing on fire, win 175 00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: it again. Just set Erica's dumps from fire instead, which 176 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: is fun. Don't try to turn this into Dan you 177 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: don't care about women. I'm happy about the one. I think. 178 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: I think there's a point to be made there that 179 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: the that the country as a whole does not get 180 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: is not is going to get behind a men's team 181 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: more than the women's team. It's unfortunate, but that's true. 182 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: Like I don't even think imagine if right, no, but 183 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: I mean imagine if Serena Williams was a man like, 184 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: how how big of an icon she would be, uh 185 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: relatively and how much like people would watch it more. 186 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: I think about that all the time because I love 187 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: women's tennis like that, Like if she was, if she 188 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: was a man like, people would be so much more 189 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: into tennis. It's sexist and it's also it is not 190 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,719 Speaker 1: sexist though to say that the Men's World Cup is 191 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: a much bigger deal than the women's World Cup. That's 192 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: all I'm not saying, right, not in not The interest 193 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: level in this country is is pretty similar, I would say, 194 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: but pretty much everywhere at most everywhere else. Well, if 195 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: the men were good here, I don't think it would 196 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: be the same. When the men were playing at the 197 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: garage the one we went to you they were breaking 198 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 1: IRA coats. I don't know if that's happening at the 199 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: garage right now. Just to be honest, interest level, Yeah, 200 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: that's the battle they're fighting. Um, all right, let's get 201 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: into it. Let's get into some news. Cameron Jordan and 202 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: the Saints do business. A new three year deal for 203 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 1: Jordan's um, the second time he's been extended uh and 204 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: by the Saints. He's now signed through thirty thirty years old. UH, 205 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: and this is a guy who has been one of 206 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: the key members of this defense UH for years now. 207 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: And Greg we talked about this. There's been a couple 208 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 1: of different cases this offseason of maybe a new trend 209 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: in the NFL of teams not necessarily needing to take 210 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: care of their best guys. Jordan in this case had 211 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: two years left on his previous extension, but the team 212 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: going to the player and saying, let's make a deal. 213 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: Let's keep this happy marriage happy. And that's how I 214 00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: read this situation. Uh. It's a great marriage, a productive marriage, 215 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: so why not do everything in your power to keep it? Though. 216 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: Absolutely a rare guy that has really gotten better. He 217 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: was good to begin with, a very good NFL player 218 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: to start and he's gotten better basically every year of 219 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: his career. I mean he the last two years have 220 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: been his best two years, and he continually gets better. 221 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 1: They're a team that's in a little bit of has 222 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: some cap issues. I was talking to someone that there's 223 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: in there's a lot of cap rules because the end 224 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 1: of the c b A is happening, and the way 225 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: that you can push money into the future is not 226 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: nearly as easy in as it would be basically every 227 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: other year, because you don't want to be pushing it 228 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: into this nebulous uh non peba area. So I don't 229 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: know if that's part of it too, that they're saving 230 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: some cap money in in the short term by giving 231 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: a guy who deserves it some money. They have a 232 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: stacked defensive line. I mean, we've spent most of this 233 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: podcast up until the last couple of years talking about 234 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: the Saints being a lopsided offensive base team. But when 235 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: you sign one of your defensive core guys, now you're 236 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: probably ejecting him to play into a post Drew Brees era. 237 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: Not to go down that whole wormhole, but you may 238 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: become more of a defensive team at some point, and 239 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: you've got to keep these guys around. But also for me, 240 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: Cam Jordan's you lost mark Ingram, who I think was 241 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: the ultra leader in that locker room, one of the dudes, 242 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: and Cam Jordan's right up there. The only thing that 243 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: he's delaye is the minute he leaves the NFL. I 244 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: think his media career completely takes off in the minute 245 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: that is already beginning. And so it's just when we 246 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: shipped right into that career. He might be here. I 247 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: feel like seems like what seems like one of those 248 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: Highers the last two years. If you remove Aaron Donald 249 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 1: from the conversation, this guy's right there for Defensive Player 250 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: of the Year. He's in the mix. I wonder by 251 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: the way Cameron Jordan's he's entering, I believe is either 252 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: ninth or tenth season. He's signed through three. If he 253 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: actually played through that contract would be thirteen years with 254 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: the Saints. His dad, Steve Jordan's played thirteen year with 255 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: the thirteen years with the Vikings. Has that ever happened before? 256 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: Has ever a father and son had careers that length 257 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: with just one team with the same team. Well, the 258 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: Matthews is certainly and had longevity, but Clay Matthews is 259 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: running Green Bay is now over. That was close, But 260 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I did notice that they're using the 261 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: Jordan's family in some advertisements for the upcoming Shaft movie, 262 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: something to do with like Dad's, like Father's Day, Dad's 263 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: and it's like the Jordan's and Shaft and his dad. 264 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what it all means. That movie also 265 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: looks like a minor disaster to me, but separate a 266 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: separate topic, moving on other money matters, so that the 267 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: Saints pay their stud on D the Jaguars are going 268 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: to do that with their's. Jalen Ramsey um has been 269 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: made aware that the Jaguars do not plan to give 270 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: him an extension this year. The Jaguars corner said Tuesday 271 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,479 Speaker 1: during mini camp he's been told he's not getting that extension. 272 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: He believes that he's outperformed that rookie deal. He's probably right, 273 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: but the Jags are waiting it out. Here's what Ramsey 274 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: told the Florida Times Union. I'm not down about it 275 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: or anything like that. I'm blessed and he's made a 276 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: ton of money. Um, he's gonna make they exercise their 277 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: fifty year option on the former number five pick. He'll 278 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: be He'll make almost fourteen million next year. Uh, he's 279 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: getting paid relative peanuts for his ability this year at 280 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: three point six. It has the talent to be the 281 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: best cornerback in the NFL. And I think if you're 282 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: the Jaguar, as you say, our locker room was a 283 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: disaster in two thousand and eighteen, Let's see if this 284 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 1: guy becomes a leader, the leader that we need on 285 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: defense before we lock him up. I mean there's no reason, 286 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: there's no hurry here. He tweeted. Uh a Dion Sanders 287 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: quote yesterday, I'm asked for so much money they have 288 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 1: to put me on layaway. Those fifth year options, by 289 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: the way, kind of bang the first round picks just 290 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: a tiny bit like if if you could choose whether 291 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: not the purpose of them. Yeah, basically like if you 292 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: if you could choose whether to be like the thirty 293 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: fourth pick in the draft or the thirty first and 294 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: you turn into a star like Michael Thomas, for instance, 295 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: you would rather be the thirty fourth pick because you 296 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: get the free agency quicker. I don't recall growing up 297 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: a bunch of players where they would re up like 298 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: two or three years into their rookie deal. That was 299 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: not a phenomenon back then. Today it certainly is because 300 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: you want to get them earlier than later. The Patriots 301 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: famously did it with Aaron Hernandez and Rob Gronkowski like 302 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: the first day possible that they could work out. One 303 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: of those was one of the was the worst contract 304 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: in NFL history. It's time to talk about the Giants 305 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: quarterback situation. Uh. There has been an assumption made by 306 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: some that Eli Manning will be the starting quarterback of 307 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: the Giants. That's not an assumption. That's what the Giants 308 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: told one week one this year, Week one next year, 309 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: week one the year after that. However, there is the 310 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: reality that the Giants used the sixth overall pick on 311 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, and the head coach Pat Shermer told Tom 312 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 1: Rock of Newsday uh that you know the team tell 313 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: him this, leaving the door open for an actual camp 314 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: battle this summer. Here's what Shermer had to say. He's 315 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: on track with the goal to be ready to play 316 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: on day one, Schrmer said of Jones. The QB stuff 317 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: will be on the front burner for everybody. I get that, 318 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: but he's on track. Schrmer than added, We're gonna play 319 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: the very best player. I know we're dancing around the 320 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: words here, but right now Eli is getting ready to 321 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: have a great year and Daniel is getting ready to play. 322 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: We'll just see what happens. We feel good where Eli is. 323 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 1: He's our starting starting quarterback, and he's got a young 324 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 1: player that we think is going to be an outstanding 325 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: player getting himself ready to play. It all sounds like 326 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: to me that it's just a matter of time, maybe 327 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 1: not week one, but the handwringing unnecessary. Well, the more 328 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: this is a different message from the Giants. This is 329 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: a death the Giants. No, this is the Giants. This 330 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: is what the Giant said. Elis our quarterback. And now 331 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: Shermer is allowed to talk instead of gentleman and Sherman. 332 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a great idea I think for 333 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: professional sports team to put their best team. I also 334 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: think Daniel Jones. You know, we don't put much into O, 335 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 1: T A s and mini camps, but if I'm a 336 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 1: Giants fan, I'd prefer the uh drips and drabs coming 337 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,959 Speaker 1: out of Giants camp about how good Daniel Jones has 338 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: looked versus the opposite which often happens with rookie quarterbacks. 339 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: And you know, Pete Pete Traeger was on Good Morning 340 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 1: Football talking about you know, jones is athleticism, saying he's 341 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 1: becoming a Paul Bunyan esque figure. Like people talking about, 342 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,200 Speaker 1: you know a guy that's in the NBA draft, who 343 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: was that Duke uh talking about how Daniel Jones was 344 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: like an a a U legend duncan over six ten 345 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 1: guys that he's hitting home runs at softball UH games, 346 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: and he's kind of impressing everyone at the Giants camp 347 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 1: just that he's a badass athlete. Which I'd also say, 348 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: this is Pat Shermer's last chance to be a head coach. 349 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: If this doesn't go well, it's not gonna happen again, 350 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: and he would have a different message and desire to 351 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: move on to the young guy and be tied to 352 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: the young guy that everyone's not going to expect the 353 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: world from a year one versus a sinking ship with 354 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 1: Eli Manning that he's going to be blamed for all 355 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: season long. I just think it's a good idea when 356 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: the front office stays out of it and lets the 357 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: coach play his best players, it's not a bad idea. 358 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 1: It's always the writing was on the wall this day. 359 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: They made that pick, and and you could passwords or 360 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 1: look at what the GM is saying about the quarterback 361 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 1: and the veteran and what what the coach is saying 362 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: about the rookie. But it's all it's just a it's 363 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: a countdown right now for a new aeron Giants football. 364 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: But there are situations where GM says, Hey, this is 365 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: what we're doing. We're playing this guy and then the 366 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: coach is not even allowed to open the competition. That 367 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: was my issue with it. You don't see the cardinal saying, yeah, 368 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna start someone else. They're gonna start the guy 369 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 1: they drafted. It's also there is the matter of and 370 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: I know he's not respected very much in this room, 371 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: but Eli Manning is a legend of that franchise. So 372 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: they've been cut two years ago. But that's but see, 373 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: you look at black and white with Eli, but that 374 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: organization has some fuzzy feelings for him. So it just 375 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: makes it a bit of a trickier transition. I think 376 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: the Giants have had a terrible offseason. I'm on but 377 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: I'm on the same page with you guys. But I 378 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: don't I didn't think this is such a black and 379 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: white issue. Um. I get what you're saying, though, was 380 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 1: Ultimately we're on the sage put your best team. It's 381 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 1: a big, wide page and you're both on it, not 382 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: next to which it's one of those remember the old 383 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: printers like little dot matrix. We're on the same role somewhere. 384 00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: Moving on more extension news written This piece written by 385 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: Lakisha wesselingh Wow. By the way, your wife looking banging 386 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 1: in this head shot? Is that appropriate? Can I say 387 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: that you can? I don't think anyone could, but you can. 388 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,879 Speaker 1: She looks great. And you know an our internal u 389 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: NFL media inbox Lakisha who works on the editorial desk, 390 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 1: when she sends out various things during the day. Now 391 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: I keep on seeing like wrestling, posting some new Damna 392 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: Check podcast. I'm like, what is Chris doing. It's like, Oh, 393 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: she should teach a class and like head shot photos 394 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:00,040 Speaker 1: and we should be her students because she really it 395 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: a lot with which that little it's just a small 396 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: little area you got up that box. I wouldn't limit 397 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: it the head shots. I think we could share students 398 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: in several area. Ours could use some work, no doubt anyway. 399 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: Uh Lakisha wrote this piece for dot com Vikings and 400 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: Kyle Rudolph agreed with terms on a four year deal 401 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: UH thirty six million dollar extension. Tom Peal Sero, our 402 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 1: own Tom Pella Sero had this UM Rudolph confirmed weeks 403 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 1: ago that the team had offered him a five year extension. 404 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 1: Both sides are working to get it done. UH keeps 405 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: him in Minnesota. They have the young kid Irv Smith, 406 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:40,120 Speaker 1: great name, who's drafted in the second round, uh in April, 407 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: So that's the kid in the future. But Rudolph who 408 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 1: has had injury issues, But Wes, this is a guy 409 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 1: that has put up the numbers before, and you could 410 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: see a healthy Kyle Rudolph, even a little bit older, 411 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: getting on the same page with Kirk Cousins and making 412 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: some magic. Right. Hasn't missed the game in the last 413 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: four years, and I think he's one of the few 414 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,239 Speaker 1: tight ends in the NFL who is just as at 415 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: depth at blocking as he is at catching. So he's 416 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 1: not gonna blow any fantasy football guys out of the 417 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: water with his production. But I think the Vikings value 418 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 1: him because he can do both things well. The other 419 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: guy they have David Morgan and Tyler Conkin outside of 420 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: your guy, I Smith, those guys were on the field 421 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: for less than eighty passing snaps lesser Rudolph dominated that 422 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: part of their offense. So why would you There was 423 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: rumors they're gonna move on from him and all this 424 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: not this year. If Smith sounds like a respected record 425 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 1: label executive of Capitol Records, Yeah, like a guy that's 426 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: making some deals, has worked with the Eagles and he's 427 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 1: still in the mix or or not the not the team, 428 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 1: the rock band of the seventy or like a creative 429 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: like a high school creative writing teacher whose dreams were 430 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 1: never totally realized, and so he takes out those frustrations 431 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: on some of his students, just like in passive aggressive 432 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: way what they were when they read their story. He 433 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: just you know, yeah, like he's harder on the on 434 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,239 Speaker 1: the ones that are like like more talented, just be like, 435 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: it's not easy out there, you know, like you gotta 436 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: really like even if you like bleed for it, you're 437 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 1: not gonna So what if you appeared in the Iowa 438 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: Journal Review, Hey hey, Mr Smith, Hey call me IRV. 439 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: It's one of those. Yeah, that's the teacher, not the player. 440 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 1: I think this makes Kyle Rudolph one of the wealthiest 441 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: people ever to come out of Elder High School in Cincinnati. Y. Yeah, 442 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: you always wanted distinction like that. Let's move on to 443 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: some camp injury news. Andrew Luck confirmed by Colts coach 444 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: Frank Reich. He'll sit out mini camp. He has a 445 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: calf strain. It's been it's lingered and uh wisely, the 446 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: Colts they're not gonna push push that issue. We just 447 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: came off, you know, a year and a half prior 448 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: to last season of Andrew Luck injury updates and that 449 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: team taking every precaution to make sure Luck was ready 450 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 1: for training camp. And they're doing the same thing here 451 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: under much you know, lower lesser stakes, but wise we 452 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 1: don't need Luck out there right now. And Jimmy Garoppolo, Uh, 453 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: another quarterback news. Uh, he has the knee. He blew 454 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: out his a c L. Last was it November October September? 455 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: It was September. Uh, he has been limited to individual 456 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: drills in minicamp. He is on he is on track 457 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: for training camp, but it is not he's not fully 458 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 1: cleared and all ready to go. But wouldn't be too 459 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: concerned about that. He has running two minute drills in 460 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: their practice. It's a reminder though he's coming off in 461 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: to ourn a c L. You're kind of just like, oh, 462 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: they got Jimmy g back and that's fine, and uh, 463 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 1: he's the guy who's barely started in the NFL. It 464 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 1: was coming off a major reconstructive injury. Last week I 465 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: wrote that um winding, uh double bang or piece and 466 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 1: guessing team m VPS. I went with Garoppolo for the Niners. 467 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: But it's this is a big year for him because 468 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,119 Speaker 1: if another season, you know, God forbid for Jimmy G 469 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: got swallowed up by injuries. Uh, and we're now approaching 470 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: age thirty with not a lot of track record, or 471 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: if he struggles, I wonder, I don't want to say 472 00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't wonder about his job security. But 473 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 1: this is an important year for It's kind of time 474 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 1: for the Jimmy G Show to be put together in full. 475 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: His cap number is over twenty six million for the 476 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: until the year. Like a star quarterback. They need it. Uh. Meanwhile, 477 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: on the throne of Slee's Bill Belichick. Last time we 478 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: heard from Bill, he was canceling Uh the last week 479 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: of practice, which apparently you could do and you have 480 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: eight rings or whatever worked last year. This year, you know, 481 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 1: maybe more concerned. Maybe they should have taken the practices 482 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: and we'll find out come the regular season. That's him 483 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: telling the NFL, you're little non contact rules that you've made, 484 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: have made these offseason o t s the useless well 485 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: you know what else is um? You know, maybe that's 486 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: problematic that they took away the tackling. But you know 487 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,919 Speaker 1: what else is probably problematic. Shooting one of your players 488 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: in the face. Yeah, that's not a positive typical, is it? 489 00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: Is it? Bill Belichick uh shot Kyle Okay, Kyle van 490 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 1: Noy uh in the face, in the face with a 491 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: paintball gun, so not a real gun, but he hit 492 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: van Noy. Here's what Vanoy said, I got hit. I'm 493 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 1: telling you this paintball hit me in the mask and 494 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: the mask hit my tooth and my blank still hurts. 495 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: So more evidence that Bill Belichick now and he's getting older. 496 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: You gotta keep that in mind. Maybe some scrambled eggs 497 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: up there, canceling practice shooting his own players. It just 498 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 1: may be time. It's um making Bill kind of one 499 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: of the guys on a human level. Because the only 500 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: reason we know was Bill van Noy wasn't giving this up. 501 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: He was embarrassed by it. But Dante Hi Tower come 502 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: came and kind of like interrupted the interview and started 503 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: telling him to tell everyone who who got him. It 504 00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: was Bell. It's Mr February to you, Dan, that's I mean, Kyle, know, 505 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: you might as well call Mr February. After after that 506 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: Super Bowl performance that the New nice. Belichick is spending 507 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: an off off season on these tours giving speeches, and 508 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: he claims that High Tower should be referred to as Mr. February. 509 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: I like that, and Van Noisen he's good at the 510 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: shoot him up games. He's playing in a Fortnite pro 511 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: am this weekend, so if Bill can take him out 512 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: in that, who knows. My goal in my house is 513 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 1: to simply keep my two children away from Fortnite. The 514 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 1: minute that that is, We're already too many wormals. I 515 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: you know, you do the thing with your phone where 516 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: you're clearing out videos to make room, And I found 517 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: yesterday the video for all you, Mr Belichick so nice. 518 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: The seconds after they knocked out the Rams in the 519 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,199 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, everyone's hugging each other and a photographer just 520 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: doing his job, trying to get a nice portrait of 521 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: Bill hugging one of his people, and right away Bill 522 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: just shoves the coach he's hugging out of the way 523 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: and slams the photographer with it with an open fist 524 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: or with an open palm, right in the face. And 525 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: just now you could file a complaint. I would assume 526 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: that's not what you'd want to happen. But nothing has heard. 527 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: How close are these photographers are allowed to get to? Well, 528 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: I I hear that side of it. But it was 529 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: like in the biggest moment of you know, another crowning achievement. 530 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: Where that guy is, by the way, the reason there 531 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 1: was no criminal. He's wild. He is under the mass place, 532 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: he's there with he's with the two of them. He 533 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: got a paintball on the face, in the face under 534 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: all right, let's check in with some kickers. Chris Blewett, 535 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 1: who got you know, got never had a chance. Let's 536 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: face it, bad name, it's family name. I don't want 537 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: to s on the Blewett family. But if you're going 538 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 1: to be a place kicker in the NFL, it's one 539 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 1: of those things you just gotta change it. You gotta 540 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 1: ellis Island that thing, you know, and it's gotta gotta 541 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: happen soon because he's not getting younger. The Bears announced 542 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: Wednesday they waved Chris Blewett, one of the three kickers 543 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: in minicamp competing with the job. And it comes on 544 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: what was another dis as for a stay in Chicago 545 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: for their kickers. So blew It, eight, Pinero and Elliott 546 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: Fry all missed kicks from forty two yards back to 547 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: back to back. Matt Age, who's got to be ready 548 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 1: to lose it after practice told reporters, whatever went through 549 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: your mind went through my mind. And again you know, 550 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: and so I'm sorry, Chris Blewett, good luck to you. 551 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: I hope you catch on somewhere else. But again, doesn't 552 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 1: it feel like the Bears are going out of their 553 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: way to promote the dysfunction at this position that essentially 554 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: cost them their season with a double doink? Yeah? He 555 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: had all they had, all these like legends watching it 556 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: or alumni, and first of all was a blocked kick. 557 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: This is reminding me so much of when the Jets 558 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: drafted Mike Nugent because they thought they were just a 559 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: kicker away. Uh And the only thing that stepped in 560 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: their way and herm Edwards this first season was that 561 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: from advancing in the playoffs was Doug Brian missing The 562 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: kicks are not going to be make or break your 563 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: season here. It's like you can't just get back to 564 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 1: that game. Everything over. But I know what you're saying. 565 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I'm saying it's not for the Bears. Dann. 566 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 1: You raise an interesting point if you are, Hey, let's 567 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: say high end high school kicking prodigy. At what point 568 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: in your career do you think about changing your name 569 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: if it's blew it, Like at some point in college. 570 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: After college, you could just do the thing where you 571 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: like go by your middle name. Tom Cruise's middle name 572 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: is Cruise. You know, just happens all they still got 573 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: a last name, So just like officially go by you know, 574 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: or you just tell the team to you. I mean, 575 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: if it's if, you probably don't even need to officially 576 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: change it, just be like, hey, list it this way. 577 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: If you change his name, you know, half a year 578 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,959 Speaker 1: ago to Chris Chicago, you know, he's still on that 579 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: roster because people are loving him and buying jerseys of him. 580 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: There's no way to get you have to move things 581 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 1: like someone with the last name blew it off the 582 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 1: roster as soon as possibly. I just wonder why the 583 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: Naggy and the entire Bear staff is leaning into this 584 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: storyline and making it so public last week. We actually 585 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: didn't get to it last week, but they made it 586 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: be known that they're they're moved last week. I don't 587 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: Maybe it's a show that they're smart and they're trying 588 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: different things. But it's not quite getting over that. They 589 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: were employing what they called augusta silence when the kickers, 590 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: So everyone on the field and on the sideline, the coaches, uh, 591 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: everyone in the vicinity of the kickers, nobody was allowed 592 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: to say a word. How about how about Mitchell Robinsky, 593 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: don't throw the ball to the other team and throw 594 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 1: a little more accurately in your playoffs, because that was 595 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: after that game and was harassed, right, I'm saying he 596 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: had second half, he had a poor game, and he 597 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: put his team in position to win, which it happens 598 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: all the time. Don't give up points at the end, 599 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: you know, It's just like that was a great Everyone 600 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: was like in their right place, Greg getting upset about something, 601 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 1: West firing back at Greg hard, and then Mark looking 602 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: for a reckoning about something he was wronged over. We 603 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: all at the same time it was happening. I was 604 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: just watching the world burn um and separating himself as 605 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: as ratings tumble. Anyway, So we'll see what happens. Now 606 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: it's down to Piniero and Elliott Fry. And by the way, 607 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: Elliot Fry, I don't know, he come up small, small Fry. 608 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: How abounch of some strong names. Well, don't you know 609 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: what what every Bears wants? And I don't Edie, Eddie's 610 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: gonna save the season. I don't think that Doris closed. 611 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: And you know what every Bears fan wants. I know 612 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: Robert May's who's a you know, well known Bears fan 613 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: who does the Ringer podcast. Uh, he wants Robbie Gold. 614 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: Robbie Golds holding out in San Francisco. You bring the 615 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: Gold back home. It makes a lot of sense. We 616 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: we talked about this too. Remember Robbie Gold is building 617 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: a home in Chicago. He sold his home and building 618 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 1: a new one. And uh, he's ready to go there. 619 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 1: And he will sign there in free agency next year, 620 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: mark my words. But for the time being, they know 621 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: what the Niners are saying, Hey, we want one of 622 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: the top five ten kickers in the league on our team. 623 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: If he hates it here, he's gonna put it through 624 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: the uprights for his own well being. What he what 625 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: a he's supposed to do? If just give him to 626 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: the Bears. But Fry five days from now. Uh, he 627 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: got small right Pry on your team. He got cousin 628 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,959 Speaker 1: Eddie got small Fry and he got blew it. You 629 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: know what happened to Gary Cooper? As Tony Soprano once said, Um, 630 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 1: the pride of the Yankees. Guy, Yeah, the men? What 631 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: happened to the men? Where have all the cowboys going? Sometimes? 632 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: I asked that question in the city. By the way, 633 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: where have you gone, Joe? To manage you? Uh, it's 634 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 1: a fair question in the city, all right. Finally in 635 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 1: the news, Yes, the announcement finally came down. HBO, uh 636 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 1: and NFL Films have made it official.

Yes, the Raiders 653 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 1: are the team. UM. I wrote uh on the dot 654 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: com six takeaways. Probably was aiming for ten and then 655 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 1: I got to six and I was like, that's about 656 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: eight and fifty words a lot more than that. No, 657 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: I think, ultimately, uh, this is a good pick. We 658 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 1: We've talked about this on the show. There were there 659 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: were five options that were eligible, meaning they didn't need 660 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: to uh, they didn't need consent from the teams to 661 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,280 Speaker 1: be selected. Uh. You had the Raiders, the Redskins, the Lions, 662 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: the Niners and the Giants. Uh, and the Raiders. They 663 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: just have a lot of good subplot I think chief 664 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: among them is John Gruden year two. Uh. He was 665 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: born for this. They were the cameras of Hard Knocks 666 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: and Gruden. I feel like we're made for each other, 667 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: and you have this world with Gruden. Uh. Mike Mayock 668 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 1: is in the building. And one thing I wrote about 669 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 1: in the piece we'll start here. Uh is that last 670 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 1: year the most exciting um or scandalous part of the 671 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 1: very good Cleveland Brown season was the apparent power struggle 672 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 1: within the coaching staff who was running the show and 673 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,720 Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson saying I drive the bus and Todd Haley 674 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,359 Speaker 1: obviously being um dismissive of Jackson, who had gone one 675 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 1: in thirty one over the previous two years. It all 676 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,760 Speaker 1: plays out a couple of months later they both get fired. 677 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: That will not be the case here. This is John 678 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: Gruden show. Nobody thinks otherwise. So I'll be interested to 679 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: see how a Gruden camp looks, especially after what we 680 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: saw in Cleveland last year. All Right, I'm just annoyed 681 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:02,399 Speaker 1: by John Gruden acting like this is the worst thing 682 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 1: in the world, and how how annoyed he is seemingly 683 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: by it. It's just a little too much like protesting 684 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 1: from a guy who loves attention. But let's let's calm down. 685 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: Let's calm down on like, oh, I don't want to disrupt. 686 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,799 Speaker 1: I don't want this attention on me. Please. Who is 687 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: telling everyone that you're in in in the morning at 688 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 1: three thirty am? In every article it's like yeah, I 689 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: don't mind it. I love Gruden and I love Mike Mayock, 690 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: and I know Mike Mack has kind of it made 691 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,839 Speaker 1: it sound like he doesn't want to be on it either. 692 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know. These guys have gotten where 693 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,480 Speaker 1: they are partly by promoting themselves because they're good at 694 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: what they do and their interesting characters keep it going. 695 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: Not all of them, but a lot of the coaches 696 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: and gms, to Gregg's point, are charismatic guys that like 697 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 1: the camera, that like to be heard, they like to 698 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,800 Speaker 1: be seen, and what what show is better than promoting 699 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: your personal brand? Uh? Than Hard Knocks and then you're 700 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:03,720 Speaker 1: old job p f T. They wrote they were belly aching, 701 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 1: like they wrote a piece saying, oh, there shouldn't be 702 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 1: any Hard Knocks anymore because it's outlived it's usefulness in 703 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 1: the age of social media. And I I saw what 704 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: the angle was that now we're seeing we get to 705 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 1: see things from inside these camps via Instagram and Twitter 706 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: that you wouldn't have seen before. But at the same time, 707 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 1: like just because the teams don't want to do it 708 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,359 Speaker 1: doesn't mean it shouldn't exist. It is actually a fan 709 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: service because it gives you an incredible look behind the 710 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: scenes year after year of these teams, and I learned 711 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: a lot about the Browns last year. Yeah, I totally 712 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: disagree with that take because we never would have known 713 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,720 Speaker 1: some of the fishers and some of the issues inside 714 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: of the Cleveland organization by instagram photos on the field 715 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 1: at training camp. We wouldn't have known any of that. 716 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: And I for me, I think I would I would 717 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: buy that Mike Mayock is not totally into this in 718 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: the sense that get it. Here's the issue though, But 719 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: when you're when you're delivering, you know, a three minute 720 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: spiel about a player that you watch tape on start 721 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 1: say your thing close Now it's it's hundreds of our 722 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: the footage edited in a way that you have no 723 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 1: say over. That's what they do have to say. That 724 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: was what I was gonna say, is they they get 725 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: a lot of say and they can approve and take 726 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: out anything they want. And I think Hugh Jackson and 727 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: the Browns probably regret some of the things that they 728 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 1: left in last night. That was that was kind of 729 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: the worst case scenario I think of what teams are 730 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:19,879 Speaker 1: afraid of when it comes to hard knock. But Mike 731 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 1: Mayock got his job as rich Eyes and pointed out 732 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: in a threat on Twitter last night, uh in the 733 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 1: NFL by going to his his local Philly legend, Steve 734 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: Sable and asking him, how do I get into this business? 735 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:34,319 Speaker 1: And that's what this this Hard Knocks show is all about. 736 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,240 Speaker 1: It's NFL films. It's ultimately shows teams in a very part. 737 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 1: So are you prepared to see Vonte's perfect in a 738 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 1: different light, which which I think is gonna happen, Richie incognito, 739 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: I don't really want to yuck anybody's yum here. The 740 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: Hard Knocks is not my favorite show. Um and the 741 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: Browns were a mystery after watching John Gruden and Mike 742 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 1: Mayock on TV for a decade, I don't really need 743 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 1: to see any more of them. But you saw them 744 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 1: as analysts that now they're being team built like Mike 745 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 1: Mayak and John Gruden. R. I mean, I just don't 746 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,600 Speaker 1: need to They don't contain any mystery for me whatsoever. 747 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 1: I don't find this team to be compelling, but that's 748 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: all I know. What about the fact you guys should 749 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 1: watch it, everybody should have fun watching fair enough, But 750 00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: what about the fact that Cruden is really is back 751 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: up against the wall coming off last season. This isn't 752 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: him compelling in any way perform. I would absolutely enjoy 753 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 1: any one of the thirty two teams. I would find 754 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: it interesting because of because to me, just seen behind 755 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,399 Speaker 1: the scenes of any team is interesting and the way 756 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: they make it is good TV. UM a couple other 757 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: subplots that they'll be sure to be drilling down on. 758 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,839 Speaker 1: I am uh, I see your point, West, But one 759 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: thing I do want to see with Gruden, even if 760 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: you kind of know what his vibe is by this point, 761 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:48,799 Speaker 1: the chucky, the intensity, the ship grin and all that stuff. UM, 762 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:53,760 Speaker 1: I want to see interactions between um, Derek Carr and Gruden, 763 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: who had it was interesting watching that a relationship from 764 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: a far last year. There was some heated sideline exchange 765 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 1: ages and then we went through a draft process where 766 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 1: there seemed to be some flirtation with the idea of 767 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: replacing Car and Derek Carl that we love him and 768 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,359 Speaker 1: he's probably gonna be the m v P this year. 769 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,880 Speaker 1: Uh in the NFL complimenting Derek Car there we go. Um, 770 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: he's a sensitive guy. He's a guy that you know, 771 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,919 Speaker 1: watches things and tracks things. I wonder a chronic QB. 772 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 1: Needler like Bruden, how that plays out with the cameras 773 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 1: on got Antonio Brown in the building incognito? Uh? And 774 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: the team is moving to Vegas. I hope Greg, they're 775 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 1: not going to give us too many of those. Al Right, 776 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: Front Office, Mark Davison Company, road trip to Vegas. Let's 777 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 1: check out the status of the building. But part of 778 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: it is a pr and they're going to want that. 779 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 1: I mean, too many more than one would be too much. 780 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: Although I will hope that Mark Davis is in the 781 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: show as much as possible. If you just wanted to 782 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 1: make it inside now, that's what would make me watch. 783 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: It was just like Hard Knocks Mark Davis. They just 784 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: follow him around for an hour every week and cut. 785 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 1: That showed me up. I couldn't really right about that 786 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,720 Speaker 1: on the website. But what you're saying, everybody knows exactly 787 00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: what you're saying, and I backed that. Give us a 788 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: lot of Mark Davis. Uh. That's what's happening in the news. 789 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: Before we get to Mark's favorite games, um West, we 790 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 1: have some some softball drama the Shield. We're in a 791 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 1: good spot. We're six and two. We are second place, 792 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: second place. The top three teams make the playoffs. Uh. 793 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: We have I believe, four games left. So we have 794 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 1: a big game against Barney's Beanery, another UM six and 795 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 1: two team. And if we win this game tonight, we 796 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,400 Speaker 1: are in the driver's seat to go back to the playoffs. 797 00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 1: And we know what happens when the Shield goes to 798 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: the playoffs. We win, we win. Uh. There is more 799 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: drama though, and UH, and you know what it's It's 800 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 1: just the truth of the matter. With any drama we 801 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 1: dealt with West over the three years, it's happened. It's 802 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 1: a co ed league. It happens with the ladies. It's 803 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,880 Speaker 1: always something popping up with the ladies. And this year 804 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 1: and Erica had on the She's on the team. She 805 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 1: had nothing to do with it. It wasn't her fault, 806 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 1: but she was indirectly right in the middle of one 807 00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 1: of the great controversies Uh in the history of the Shield. Yes, 808 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 1: last week Erica is starting. Were you aware of any 809 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 1: of this? Ricky? Okay, Ricky, I put her in the lineup. 810 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: She was starting in right center field, UH, and batting 811 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 1: UH ninth, And I and I had a backup player. 812 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 1: I won't say the name. But she came up to 813 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: me right before the game started and she said, oh, 814 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:31,840 Speaker 1: who am I up after? And I said, oh, actually, 815 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,920 Speaker 1: Erica is gonna start. She's gonna get a couple of 816 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: bats and play out there, and then you're gonna go in. 817 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: We took the field to start the game, came back 818 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: to the dugout after the top of the first and 819 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: she's gone. Is that what happened? That's why she left. 820 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: She took her ball and went home, took her and uh. 821 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: And then I waited to hear back from her over 822 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 1: a course of days. Just almost shot Ricky there. You know. 823 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,799 Speaker 1: It's like, if I'm bench for Ricky, I'm taking off. 824 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 1: That's a shot. But well, you know, I think Ricky's 825 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: a developing talent in the outfield. I wanted the reason 826 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: she was starting is I wanted to get her innings, 827 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 1: and I was hoping that that would be understood. But 828 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:11,200 Speaker 1: I never heard back from this individual. I sent an 829 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 1: email checking in to see if everything was okay. Didn't 830 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,400 Speaker 1: get a response. So I had to put out a 831 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:20,320 Speaker 1: new starting lineup for tonight's game. And that individual, apparently 832 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 1: so angry about Erica starting, is not in the lineup 833 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: and presumably off the team now in communicado. Yeah, I'm 834 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 1: wait what Because some people just don't check emails or 835 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:34,000 Speaker 1: they get they get buried a little bit. I am 836 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 1: guilty of that. I don't have I don't have this 837 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: individual's number, but uh it was a private email sent 838 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:44,359 Speaker 1: on the NFL server and uh I expected to hear 839 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 1: back from this person in some regards. So there's no 840 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 1: mark as you're a front office uh worker of some 841 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 1: kind for us pro bono. UM, I don't need it. 842 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 1: I'm not looking for any any official move or announcement. 843 00:43:57,960 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: It's just kind of like a weird It's one of 844 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:01,799 Speaker 1: those weird NFL things that pop up where it's just 845 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 1: a lingering issue and we have this lingering drama and 846 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,760 Speaker 1: I don't know quite as the skipper had to resolve 847 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 1: at this point. So I'm just gonna let it just 848 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 1: I think one fix sit, one fix for next year 849 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,319 Speaker 1: from a front office angle, and I put this, uh, 850 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: you know, very very minorly on myself a team phone 851 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: tree so that you can text versus just not having 852 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 1: the number of a key player. But you know what, 853 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,880 Speaker 1: Bill parcels back in the day, trying to get the 854 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 1: Giants to the Super Bowl, had his star player, Lawrence Taylor, 855 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 1: dealing with all sorts of off the field issues, major 856 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 1: drug issues, and that was a big hiccup in his 857 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 1: coaching career, but he handled it. This is your issue 858 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 1: to deal with it. I think this is equally as 859 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 1: large of a scenario too well to overcome. The difference 860 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 1: though is lt is not bad and ninth and splitting innings. 861 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 1: You know, you might the different players have different rules. 862 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady he's a starting quarterback, he has different O 863 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:54,640 Speaker 1: t A rules than I think if they had a 864 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: twenty five year old starting quarterback. So you know, you 865 00:44:57,680 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 1: treat each player as an individual. This is more like 866 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 1: center that vanished to Mexico Super Bowl. There's a bad 867 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 1: Robins vibe to this whole thing. It's a little bit 868 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 1: of a mystery. Everyone a little confused. That's an organizational 869 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 1: that's not just on you, there's it's it's a mystery 870 00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 1: to all. So well, every coach has to deal with 871 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,120 Speaker 1: that tug and pool of what's best for each individual 872 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 1: player versus what's best for the other members on the team. 873 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 1: And in softball it seems to be even more pronounced. 874 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:25,400 Speaker 1: And dan is dealing with that right now in a 875 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 1: big way and reminder why I hung out the Cleats 876 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:29,960 Speaker 1: by the yes and why I will once again after 877 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:33,560 Speaker 1: the season think he's already retiring again. I think the 878 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:35,920 Speaker 1: guys on our team understand what your job is, and 879 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 1: the girls on your team are more like what's good 880 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 1: for me? I just also what that's just crazy and 881 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 1: I hit my best game last week. You played well, 882 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: but you responded like a champion. Your your fielding is 883 00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: not great, but you know what your effort and the 884 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:00,839 Speaker 1: reason why you were out there is because you don't 885 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: get better in the field without the reps. But as 886 00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 1: a hitter, you really you're making strides and that's why 887 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 1: I want to keep you involved with the lineup. But 888 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 1: there just has to be an understanding and everyone pulling 889 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,399 Speaker 1: in the same direction if you really want to build 890 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,840 Speaker 1: a champion. Right well, me and Brassey split reps a 891 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:18,840 Speaker 1: few games ago. You didn't see me leaving crying team player, 892 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 1: So there we are. Was Wow, is this gonna go 893 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: out on the waves? I hope this. Hope she doesn't 894 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: listening to the show, but maybe this will be the 895 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 1: only way to communicate. Well, this is the wake up 896 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 1: call signal. You're handling it through the media. You have 897 00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 1: to take things there. I tried to go one on one. Um, 898 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 1: now I'm going to go through the media. Maybe the 899 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:40,959 Speaker 1: message gets through. I feel like I could get her numbers. 900 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 1: Barney Beanery the best team in the league, because it 901 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: feels like that just sounds like a champions matchup. There 902 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: an old rival of Town Tavern or were like the 903 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 1: Bears in the in the packers or Cheers versus h 904 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 1: what is it? Rexeltil Tavern more imposing than Dollar Dog 905 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 1: Taco could whale. Those guys could rape really well. I guess, 906 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, I guess maybe that. Why should I assume 907 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 1: that if you're if you are employed by Dollar Taco, 908 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 1: you probably play some softball. I don't know what the 909 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,759 Speaker 1: makeup is the workforce. There, I'll stop talking. We're still 910 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 1: waiting for you to attend a game. By the way, 911 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 1: I wait till it gets hot. I mean I I'm 912 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 1: saving up for playoff tickets. So okay, it sounds good, 913 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,280 Speaker 1: very expensive? All right? Mark wrote a banger his favorite 914 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:23,760 Speaker 1: games in the history of your life or the NFL 915 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:26,799 Speaker 1: no my sort of my viewing history as a fan. 916 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 1: You made it cleared, and I might I kind of. 917 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: I find it interesting that this made its way onto 918 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:33,359 Speaker 1: the website, but I don't argue that it did. I'm 919 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 1: glad I enjoyed. It's a bit nebulous. I enjoyed the article, 920 00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,680 Speaker 1: and I enjoyed you pointing out many times, just like 921 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 1: trying to prevent the tweets at you have, like these 922 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 1: are my five games. Well, I know they're not the 923 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 1: best five games in NFL history, you idiots, but these 924 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 1: are the games that I enjoy. And then you're like, 925 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 1: and then when you put the Patriots Browns in two 926 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 1: thousands and you went back to that well and was like, 927 00:47:55,560 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: once again, idiots, you're right because you know how they're 928 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,240 Speaker 1: going to be headlined and sent out over social media. 929 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:05,800 Speaker 1: And it's something like this guy thinks that a regular 930 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:08,800 Speaker 1: season Brown's game by a five and eleven Cleveland squad 931 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,320 Speaker 1: is one of the best five games of his life. 932 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:13,399 Speaker 1: It's your games. Is what looks like about a week 933 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,880 Speaker 1: eleven matchup in between the Browns and Steelers that was 934 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 1: seven final I don't I mean, you should be able 935 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:21,799 Speaker 1: to read the context clues that that is not an 936 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: all time game in the history in the league. That 937 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 1: was the first time I saw them in person, which 938 00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 1: is it was a personal importance. What was that day like, Well, 939 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 1: that was that was my That was It was in Cleveland, 940 00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: and I had been a super obsessed Browns fan, but 941 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:39,120 Speaker 1: only watched them on television from the East Coast. And 942 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 1: the reason I included that game was because as a surprise, 943 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 1: and this is good dad worked by my dad. I 944 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 1: did not know this was going to happen. They basically 945 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 1: took Bingo, took me to the airport and flew me 946 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 1: to Cleveland and it was raining cats and dogs, and 947 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 1: on the way, I realized this is where we're going, 948 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 1: and we're going to a Brown Steelers game, and they 949 00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:59,719 Speaker 1: were in a tight fight to get back to the 950 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 1: play offs. Kozar was their quarterback, and so we stayed 951 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: overnight in this hotel that overlooked the stadium, which to 952 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 1: me was like the most incredible thing I've ever seen 953 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 1: out of any window ever. Walked to the stadium in 954 00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:14,240 Speaker 1: the rain the next day watched them drop a giant 955 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 1: bomb on the I believe Mark Malone led Steelers at 956 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,840 Speaker 1: that time, and that was the good old days, and 957 00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,399 Speaker 1: it was like I had never been to the Dog 958 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 1: pound or anything. So it made my list because you know, 959 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,640 Speaker 1: with as a family, you go on we went skiing 960 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 1: a few times, you go somewhere tropical, and they're like, 961 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 1: weren't those your favorite vacations. I was like, the best 962 00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 1: vacation ever was the two the forty eight hour swing 963 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,360 Speaker 1: to Cleveland, Ohio. That's funny that you it was nineteen 964 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 1: you said, yeah. My first Jet game was October second night. 965 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,800 Speaker 1: It was a game against the Chiefs and it was 966 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 1: a fitting way to start my fandom was a Jets 967 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 1: fan because it was a seventeen seventeen final in a 968 00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: driving downpour in the Meadowlands. Freeman McNeil like fumbled the 969 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 1: ball away when they were in chip Shot territory to 970 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:00,160 Speaker 1: win it. Sort of some heartbreak in there. It was 971 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 1: some misery with the rain and you go home ultimately uh, 972 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 1: kissing your sister essentially with the seventeen seventeen tie. Those 973 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 1: things stick with you. The first experiences absolutely what I 974 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 1: noticed in your piece, which was really well done. The 975 00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 1: football itself, it was just a small part of the experience. 976 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 1: In every one of these games. You had the raucous 977 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:22,000 Speaker 1: atmosphere on Wilsher Boulevard for your first one that made 978 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,880 Speaker 1: it cool for you. Then your father's son dynamic, and 979 00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 1: also your first time seeing the Browns in person. Um 980 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:32,240 Speaker 1: the third thing you know you had. I think people 981 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,759 Speaker 1: of our age we think of Parcels as magical. You 982 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 1: think of Parcels as this guy who was just one 983 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,480 Speaker 1: of the smartest coaches ever. But the difference between him 984 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:44,799 Speaker 1: and Belichick is Parcels humor comes out all the time. 985 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: Totally agree. Uh, Then you had the Lway redemption story, 986 00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 1: plus you go into Camp Jewel and then the last 987 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 1: one Mancini hillis and Rob Ryan slam your boy Belichick. 988 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 1: I used to coach your team. These are all about 989 00:50:57,040 --> 00:51:00,759 Speaker 1: other things going on other than footballs blowouts. I kind 990 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:02,920 Speaker 1: of love blowouts, so I love I love that you 991 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 1: have the Rex Ryan Jets win over the Chargers in 992 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,880 Speaker 1: January two. Can we can we listen to that Sean 993 00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 1: Green running over the Chargers defense, including an Antonio Cremarti, 994 00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 1: a scared Cremarti running away from contact, which was beautiful down. 995 00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 1: There'll be seven dragging head tuck it up. That's why 996 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 1: he's not gonna be caught touchdowns. Cremarti wanted nothing to 997 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:32,759 Speaker 1: do with that. Why did that make your list? That 998 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 1: is a flash forward to Cremarti doing the same thing 999 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:37,680 Speaker 1: against Tim Tebow a few years later when you and 1000 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:39,719 Speaker 1: I watched that game when he wasn't yet. It made 1001 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 1: the list because you know, sometimes when you're when your 1002 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:44,800 Speaker 1: own team is not in the playoffs, you cle you 1003 00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:47,320 Speaker 1: hook onto someone else. And I really love the vibe 1004 00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 1: of Rex Ryan, who came in that year and basically said, 1005 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,399 Speaker 1: you know what, Belichick f you f your rings were 1006 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:55,840 Speaker 1: coming after you. And instead of whet it being another 1007 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,799 Speaker 1: story that doesn't really hold up, they did surge down 1008 00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:00,920 Speaker 1: the stretch and they were a team that won in 1009 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 1: a very unusual way. They ran the ball at two 1010 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:06,280 Speaker 1: at one point in the regular season for two straight 1011 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 1: games of three hundred plus yards, and then they got 1012 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 1: super hot down the stretch in the playoffs and they 1013 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 1: ran the ball thirty nine times on the road against 1014 00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:15,839 Speaker 1: the Chargers, and it was one of It wasn't big 1015 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,879 Speaker 1: long runs. It was like they were just tiring San 1016 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,919 Speaker 1: diego out and then when that when when Sean Green 1017 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:24,800 Speaker 1: bust through for that run, it was like all game 1018 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 1: long they were planning for that. In Sanchez had a 1019 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:28,800 Speaker 1: hundred yards passing It was like they came in and 1020 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:31,040 Speaker 1: they said, this is what we're gonna do. I'm Rex Ryan, 1021 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 1: and they did it. That was ground and pound at 1022 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 1: its finest. But my favorite Green run actually, and one 1023 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 1: of the most memorable plays of the Rex Ryan era 1024 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 1: was fourth and one. Uh, They're up three points of 1025 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 1: like two minutes to play Philip Bridge Rivers. They were 1026 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 1: fourteen and two the the Charges that year, waiting to 1027 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 1: get back on the field, and they Jets have a 1028 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: chance to come, you know, go for the field goal 1029 00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:53,560 Speaker 1: or maybe pin with a punt, and Rex goes, no, 1030 00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:56,759 Speaker 1: I'm sending my running back and my offensive line out 1031 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 1: there to win the game, and they did. That was 1032 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 1: that was Rex at peaks wagger. What about the your 1033 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:05,320 Speaker 1: Brown's Patriots romp in November two thousand ten, because I 1034 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,919 Speaker 1: don't think a lot of people even remember this game, 1035 00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 1: but Tom Brady remembers it. Let's play that clip before 1036 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:13,319 Speaker 1: they'll throw it to him, and he's a very good 1037 00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 1: superant this game that we're out going off. That was 1038 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 1: one of the biggest man handlings I've seen in the 1039 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:34,960 Speaker 1: Belichick era. Absolutely to the point where everyone talks about 1040 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 1: we're on to Cincinnati, but they went out the Patriots 1041 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 1: and won the next ten straight games to close out 1042 00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,759 Speaker 1: that season, because I think this was a throttling that 1043 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 1: woke them up, and it woke me up because the Browns, 1044 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 1: they came out of their bye week. The week before 1045 00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 1: the bye, they had on the road knocked off the 1046 00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 1: world champion Saints, and that was like, how did that happen? 1047 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:56,799 Speaker 1: Because it was a very man genie esque team with 1048 00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:59,959 Speaker 1: not a lot of stars on offensive, guys like Chance 1049 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 1: He's stucky and Josh Cribbs getting snaps at quarterback. But 1050 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: then Peyton Hillis started getting hot, the guy that they 1051 00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 1: basically shipped, Brady Quinn did the Broncos for in return 1052 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:15,919 Speaker 1: for a running back of no name exactly after this though, 1053 00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,960 Speaker 1: this is what helped that happen, And this game, to 1054 00:54:19,080 --> 00:54:22,560 Speaker 1: me gave me one of those false flashes of intense 1055 00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:24,720 Speaker 1: hope where I thought the Browns were turning the corner 1056 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 1: in a major way. In the cult. McCoy despite being 1057 00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 1: like five nine or five ten with a pop gun arm, 1058 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 1: had all the gifts that you wanted. I completely was 1059 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:35,920 Speaker 1: convinced what My son Luke was born days before this, 1060 00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:38,360 Speaker 1: and I thought all the turning points are happening. I 1061 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 1: named my next my next son, Colton, after Calton McCoy 1062 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 1: because of this game. Big mistake, although I loved that 1063 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 1: he's named calling, but this game was such a butt whipping, 1064 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,319 Speaker 1: and I don't you you have to search through years 1065 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 1: and years to look for a Patriots team that was 1066 00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:56,120 Speaker 1: so caught off guard because there was a clip at 1067 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,040 Speaker 1: one point of Tom Brady roaming around the sideline in 1068 00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:01,320 Speaker 1: the third quarter and was sure that they had spiked 1069 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:03,760 Speaker 1: something that he had eaten or drank that day because 1070 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:06,560 Speaker 1: he looked drugged. And they never became unhinged. They never 1071 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 1: had the ball in that game. Hill Us was just 1072 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 1: running back. It's it isn't like pretty much the worst. 1073 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:14,759 Speaker 1: So many of the worst losses one sided losses in 1074 00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:18,320 Speaker 1: the Patriot in the Belichick era are from former Patriots assistants, 1075 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:23,080 Speaker 1: including Variable and the Titans one year ago. Yep, uh, 1076 00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:25,799 Speaker 1: Matt Patricia got him last year right, Yep, he did 1077 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 1: close game either, So check that, check that piece out. 1078 00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:33,520 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler wrote about some other games to their um 1079 00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 1: my favorite NFL games of all time, Colin Brown's triumphs 1080 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:43,800 Speaker 1: among top five. I mean, I guess it's for SEO purposes. 1081 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:45,920 Speaker 1: But do we really need NFL to be in that headline. 1082 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:49,800 Speaker 1: I don't think we do, but someone else clearly believes 1083 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:53,399 Speaker 1: that we absolutely do. Uh. We will be back um 1084 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:57,839 Speaker 1: Friday with another show. UM, so make sure you check 1085 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,040 Speaker 1: that out. Will do some spin around the league like 1086 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:02,840 Speaker 1: we did last week, checking in on camps all the 1087 00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:07,040 Speaker 1: you know, a couple of dozen teams almost uh wrapping 1088 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,280 Speaker 1: up their final O T A s and mandatory mini camps. 1089 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 1: So we'll check in on that, uh and that will 1090 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:15,879 Speaker 1: be uh something to look forward to. I know you're excited. Great, 1091 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:20,359 Speaker 1: I am. It's the best time of year. You won't 1092 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,799 Speaker 1: be at the game tonight, um, so we will will 1093 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:28,000 Speaker 1: keep you up to family. I'm not, I'm not. You know, 1094 00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:30,000 Speaker 1: only if she had not seen at the game last week, 1095 00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:32,280 Speaker 1: none of these problems would be occurring for you right now. 1096 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:34,399 Speaker 1: Well that is true, although it's certainly not on her, 1097 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 1: but the you know, they probably would have been. It 1098 00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 1: would have happened this week as opposed we probably was 1099 00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:42,040 Speaker 1: unavoidably the inevitable. But we'll let you know how the 1100 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 1: shield does, can't. I want to find you know you 1101 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 1: should who's close to this person on the team and 1102 00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 1: get some information West. Do you know I can. I 1103 00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:54,560 Speaker 1: can get some information if you want. Just to be clear, 1104 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:56,879 Speaker 1: the person is safe and sound. We don't even know that. 1105 00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 1: You know, a lot of people had a lot of 1106 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:03,319 Speaker 1: jokes about Barrett Robbins. Ultimately, it was kind of a 1107 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 1: tragic story. It's almost an unsolved mysteries episode. A woman 1108 00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 1: with a white dog shows up to a softball game. 1109 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: We turn around and there's just a fog and she's gone, 1110 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 1: and no one has seen or heard from her since, 1111 00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:20,080 Speaker 1: I mean even more concerning. Nobody pursues her to find 1112 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: out what has happened. It's been some emails the games started. 1113 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 1: They were committed, all right, let's go. Dan Handas signing 1114 00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 1: off for Quiet Storm, the Mailman, the Old Boss, and 1115 00:57:34,200 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 1: Ricky Hollywood behind the Glass, go shill till Friday s
