If we could paint a 54 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: little uh you know, fu man chew on you or something, 55 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: we could say it's your evil brother. You're even a 56 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: twin brother. Yeah, because I'm not growing a mustache as 57 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: never happening. Among the things you'll never go. If I 58 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 1: could take a pill that would allow me to never 59 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: have to shave again, I take it, don't I wouldn't 60 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: care about a lot of the side effects. Side effects 61 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: include death, this memory, your fingers may fall off. Your 62 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: toes can fall off too. Yeah, it's all right though, 63 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: but I will have to shave again. I won't need 64 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: my fingers because I won't have to shave, so I'll 65 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 1: be good. Yeah, I've decided to go without that for 66 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: a few days. As surely coming in silver now, So 67 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, no, no, its betrays me because 68 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 1: otherwise I have a youthful look about me. I've never 69 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 1: wanted to. I can't stand it, can't stand. I want 70 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: to shave all the time. I got it because I 71 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: have that like Homer Simpson five o'clock olock shadow. The 72 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: minute after I'm done shaving, he walks off as the 73 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: shadow is back. Yeah, it's always always there. Sorry, never 74 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: do it? Uh, Now, get you a nice makeup kit. 75 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: We could probably get a sponsor to work with us. Air. 76 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: I got folks that work over a couple of those places. Yeah, okay, 77 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: all right, we'll see if we can pull that off. 78 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: Take a shine, We'll see what we can do here. 79 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: What you do? How about that? Can you make him 80 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: not look like Homer Simpson? Yes, we can do that. 81 00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: Yes for good? Uh sou for five o'clock. Watch this 82 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: is gonna seem weird, but I'm gonna say it, and 83 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: I'm one hundred percent on I'm not. I never lie 84 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: to you, I but I'm one hundred percent honest when 85 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: I say this. It's a bold proclamation when I say, 86 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: when I say ghost, hey, come on, things getting a 87 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: little loose. So honesty, Yeah, it is. It is one 88 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: hundred percent such a lonely word, it is. Yesterday we 89 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: talked about the big trade with the Dolphins and the Steelers, 90 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: and the Steelers decide, hey, we want to go for 91 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,679 Speaker 1: it now, so we'll take John Newsmith and Jalen Ramsey 92 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: to all Pro players. We'll trade you an All Pro 93 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: player who is not happy with us in Micka Fitzpatrick. 94 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: Send him back to the place he was unhappy at 95 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 1: when we traded for me in the first place, and 96 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: I threw to look and for it when he joined 97 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 1: us earlier. Yeah, eventually the TJ. Watt thing gets done. 98 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: It's writing's on the wall. But every day it's not signed, 99 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: you gotta be a little angsty there in the Greater 100 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh area. So the big question coming off this we 101 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: talked about it last night, is you know, I can't 102 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: tell you what the Dolphins are doing I don't because 103 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like they have a plan. I feel 104 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: like part of their front office and ownership has one plan, 105 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: and the head coach and and and Chris Greer and 106 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 1: the rest of the team they have another plan. Because 107 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: their moves just don't make sense. They're not in sync 108 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: with each other. What are they They felt like this 109 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: trade was all about dumping money, right, They didn't want 110 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: to pay John hu Smith, They want to pay Jalen 111 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: Rams any more money. We're gonna dump this money. We're 112 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: gonna get a little bit younger and Mike A. Fitzpatrick. 113 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: So okay, but it felt like, hey, we are completely tanking. 114 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: We're we're gonna get We're not gonna get better because 115 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: this trade did not make them better. We're going to 116 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: just not spend money and tank and and this is 117 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: an awful thing for a team that a year ago 118 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: was up and coming and hey, we're gonna be the 119 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: fastest team in the NFL and watch out. But the 120 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 1: biggest question was, Okay, so they trade John hu Smith, 121 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: who was a top four tight end in the NFL. No, 122 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: we can't use that guy. Whoa but they didn't have 123 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: a tight end on the on the roster to replace him. Right, 124 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: nobody could catch passes, right, Jimmy Cefalo is not gonna 125 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: walk through that door. Well, their next next guy has 126 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: played like eighty five career games, has like seventy catches. 127 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: So strange, I believe. What did the Dolphins do? They 128 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: traded a sixth round pick to the Giants to get 129 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 1: the rights to Darren Waller, who is unretiring to go 130 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 1: play for Miami. Darren Waller okay, uh, And it's a 131 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: kind of a pick swap. They get a conditional seventh 132 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: round pick back. Basically, it's a low round pick. And 133 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: the Dolphins with plenty of good tight ends out there, 134 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: you could go get, right, Cole Comet available, right, perhaps, yeah, 135 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: Michael Mayer available, Like, there's some guys out there. There's 136 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: some dudes out there you can get. But wait a minute, 137 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: these guys you'd have to pay some money too. They'd 138 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: be coming up for money. No, No, let's go get 139 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: Darren Waller, who hasn't been good since twenty twenty. Okay, 140 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: and who was coming off of retirement. He hasn't been 141 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: healthy and hasn't been good in five years and he retired. 142 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: But no, no, this is the guy gonna come out 143 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 1: of retirement catch passes for us? Like, and this is 144 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: what I mean when I say that, You're gonna think 145 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: I'm lying. I feel bad for Dolphins fans. I feel bad. 146 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: I mean as a Jets fan saying this when I 147 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. I love sweeping Dolphins. Dolphins fans, yeah, eh, 148 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: go bye. But no, I feel bad for because they 149 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: have to sit here now in the in the beginning 150 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: of July and go, what are we doing? Are we 151 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: really trying this year that this is this is our thing? 152 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: We're gonna get worse on the field, and not only that, 153 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: we're not gonna even try to get better, because I 154 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: get it if it's well, we don't want to pay 155 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: John hus Smith. So they go get Michael Mayer, who's 156 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: got a couple of years left on his rookie deal. 157 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: Maybe he becomes good, right that I get, right, I 158 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: would get something like that. I'd get going to say, well, 159 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: we like cole Comet a little bit more like I get, 160 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: but saying oh, we're now gonna gonna try to cash 161 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 1: a lottery ticket on Darren Waller, who again hasn't been 162 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: good in five years, has been able to stay on 163 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: the field in five years, has been away from the 164 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: game for a year. Guys usually don't come back after 165 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: they're away from the game for a few months and 166 00:07:58,200 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: are able to play. It's not like he sat up 167 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: because of injury. He was done at the divorce from 168 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: Kelsey Plumb last off season, did his song, taking time, 169 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: all of that stuff. Now he's gonna come out now. 170 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: Now this is where the Dolphins are saying, yes, here's 171 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: a number one tight end. Like, really, I feel bad 172 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: for Dolphins fans because they are punting on the season. 173 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: They're trying to make it look like they're doing something 174 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: when all it is is, hey, we don't want to 175 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: spend money and we're trying to go cheap here at 176 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: tight end where I mean it. I feel bad for 177 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: Dolphins fans. I feel bad for any team that has 178 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: to sit in the time when the last time of 179 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: year where all thirty two teams should be optimistic is 180 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: before you get to training camp, you realize, oh boy, 181 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: this guy stinks, this stinks, this is bad, this is bad. Summer, 182 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: July and August should be a time of great optimism. 183 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: Then when the footballs fly for really, you realize, oh man, 184 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: we stink. I'm looking at the draft, but this is 185 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: that time, and you don't have that, like Dolphins fans. 186 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: A couple of teams don't even have this. And this 187 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: is why I feel bad for you, because I've had 188 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: seasons like this with the Jets when they're like, hey, 189 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 1: forget about this year. We're not even thinking about neck. 190 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: We're talking about like two three years from now. But 191 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: I feel bad because I don't know what the Dolphins 192 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: are doing other than we're not spending money and we're 193 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: in a stasis. We're in some sort of static time 194 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: where I don't know what direction the team wants to go, 195 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 1: and the players and the coach are going in one 196 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,959 Speaker 1: direction and the front office is going in another, and 197 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: you got the GM stuck in the middle. Like this 198 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 1: is just not good for anybody, but specifically, Yeah, I 199 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 1: feel bad for Dolphins fans. I'm being honest, Wow, look 200 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: at you. I mean, obviously it's a difficult spot. You 201 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 1: changed out about half of your defense, Chris Greer making 202 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: some big moves there. And then obviously this trade comes up, 203 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: which had been rumored a while, and John Neus Smith 204 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: monster year what eighty eight catches A year ago? Eight 205 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty yards all of that stuff, and it 206 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: seems like you'd at least got into some level of 207 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: calm with the Tyreek Hills situation, that no longer was 208 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: that an adversarial relationship, and that looked like you were 209 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: getting your time to heal there. See what I did, 210 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: pull it all the way back and trying to get 211 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: Jalen Waddle back on the guy that he was two 212 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 1: years ago, so that you're building with speed to it, 213 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: stayed healthy whatever the taekwon know, whatever they're teaching him 214 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: to do, that he's able to make some plays, and 215 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: that you're gonna go full throttle with Chan as your 216 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: primary running back. And now you just take out a 217 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: huge target, a guy that owned the middle of the 218 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: field for you and kept to it from getting knocked 219 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: on his ass repeatedly. Right, here's your safety valve. Just 220 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: dump it off to Johnny Smith, let him pick up 221 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: the first down, extend drives back things off so that 222 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 1: eight Chan's got some more room to run. I mean 223 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: all of that. You take him out, and Farrell Brown 224 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: was the other guy that was there, right, So strangely 225 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: you decide to move away. You know, you mentioned a 226 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: couple of options. There's a lot of teams that have 227 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: a second, second tight end that you could have gone 228 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: and kicked the door and tried to bring him along 229 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: come that would have cost you a bunch of money. 230 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: Smith eventually did sign with Pittsburgh an extension for twelve 231 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: million dollars. But all of that to say, you've got 232 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: guys who've been in the game, and Darren Waller is 233 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 1: a great story of redemption. We know is arc right, 234 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: the battle with all alcoholism and addiction, the personal trials 235 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: of what went on with Kelsey Plumb. We have fun 236 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: with his music, no question, but all of that, it's 237 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: a great story that doesn't translate into making your team 238 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: a contender. We talk with Locke and Ford and he 239 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:33,239 Speaker 1: immediately just goes, yeah, their last in the division, without hesitation, 240 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,959 Speaker 1: without saying, well, they'll battle either of the Patriots or 241 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: the Jets. Like no, they are hands down the words 242 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: And McDaniel would be the leader on any any board 243 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: for first probably out the door, oh one hundred percent. 244 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: And are you really is to a long term right? 245 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: But that's the thing are you taking to try to 246 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: get a guy next year? Is that? Is that? Is 247 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: that where Greer is trying to do this so that 248 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 1: maybe he gets to hold on to his job and 249 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: you're probably another quarterback and you're saying, hey, someone will 250 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: want to because he's flashed. Look two is a really 251 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: good quarterback. He's got to be in the right system 252 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: where he's not asked to do a lot of things. 253 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: Great physically, but he also has a concussion issues. Like 254 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: I wonder if this is good, this is it for him? 255 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: Then that this So you're setting it up where you 256 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: have a GM thinking, well, I can get another quarterback 257 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 1: in maybe I've got another coach or that McDaniel gets 258 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: to go with another young quarterback. Because think about everybody's 259 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: all salivating about the quarterback class in twenty six, right, 260 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: Arch Manning's the greatest thing I've ever seen. Couldn't beat 261 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: out Quentin Ewers. Oh, by the way, who's the third 262 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: straight quarterback on the Dolphins. Telling you, Man, I feel 263 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: bad for I feel you're paying Dolphins fans. I think 264 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: because I've gone through it. When your team has no 265 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: idea what they're doing in the on the field product 266 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: and off field product are playing tuggle war with each other, 267 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: that's terrible. That's awesome. Though you've been the last place 268 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: team of the FC East and now your Patentos fans 269 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: on the head. Yeah, I know. How wellful is that feel? Though? Yeah, 270 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: there's a little bit of you there A Dolphins smile 271 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,679 Speaker 1: at that came of real bre Dolphins fans.

You know, the 506 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 1: big protecting of Caitlin Clark. She's become a star. Now, 507 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 1: he's got what five hundred thousand more followers on social 508 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: media and after that game against the Sky right, like 509 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: she's she's taking advantage of this opportunity that is out 510 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: there for everyone. Instead of saying, oh, I'm jealous of 511 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark, to say, oh, there's unprecedented attention on the 512 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: w NBA. Let me carve out a niche for myself. Well, 513 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: but she's like those NBC ads back in the day. 514 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: If you missed it in the fall. It's new to 515 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: you because Sophie cunning game ain't new. No, she's been 516 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 1: around a while, but all of a sudden, everybody's like, hey, 517 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,959 Speaker 1: who's Sophy Gunning. But a lot of these players are 518 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 1: new to everybody because they're just paying attention to w 519 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: NBA for the first time. So it's your chance to 520 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: really garner attention, and players are taking advantage of it. 521 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: And I love Sophie cunning him until she said this 522 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: because she's not happy that this is where the w 523 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: NBA is expanding to because she doesn't think anybody in 524 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: the league wants to go play in these cities. Exactly 525 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: it is. It's when lovely, you're just getting more. 526 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 4: And so I get that aspect, but I also think 527 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 4: that you you want to listen to your players too, 528 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 4: like where do they want to play? 529 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: Where are they going to get excited to play? So 530 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 1: why do you think that Miami would have been great? 531 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 4: Like everyone loves Lord. 532 00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: Of Nashville's a meeting. 533 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 4: Here comes amazing opportunity. There's a huge arena downtown that 534 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 4: know it's missing, and I think that the Women's Soccer 535 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 4: League is showing that light people draw, you know, and 536 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 4: so I'm not so sure what the thought process is there. 537 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you also want 538 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: to expect you're not explaining. Are they too fast? 539 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 4: I think that's also another thing that you don't want 540 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 4: teams to totally don't pay it out teams. 541 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: That art And so I just think that I don't 542 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 1: want It's kind. 543 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 4: Of a hard decisiascurge situations. 544 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 1: But man, I don't I don't know how excited you 545 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: are you want to Detroit a since han, Wow, I 546 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: don't know how excited players would be to go to 547 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: Detroit or Cleveland?

Hey, hey, whoa, whoa. 548 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 1: I have vacation in Detroit now I've done it for 549 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 1: mary years and Michigan. Michigan is a great state. There's 550 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 1: lots of fun things to do. There's in every city 551 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 1: that's outside of Detroit. There's places where you, Yeah, you 552 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: don't have to go vacation in downtown Detroit, you know, 553 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 1: not everybody's every when everything is closed and and the 554 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: boudet as a open. But that's any city in the 555 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 1: United States. Must grat dinners. Yeah, you get muskrat dinners, 556 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: go to wine dott casinos, the casinos downtown like this 557 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: is this is such a statement from someone who okay, 558 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: is that she's she's becoming a star, but really understand 559 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: what you're saying. You don't take shots at other cities. 560 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: You don't take shots you play in Indiana. Which was 561 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: a well traveled line today, I thought her best line 562 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: was in the middle of it. She should have stopped. Yeah, 563 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: I mean, we gotta be careful that we don't expand 564 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 1: too aggressively, right, And I think that which I think 565 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: is a brilliant line, right, I think that is a 566 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 1: really good line. They didn't need to come back with 567 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: the shovel and hit Detroit, Cleveland and Seattle. And they 568 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: should listen to the players, yes, because that's what the 569 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: NBA and in the NFL does. Hey, where should we 570 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: put on team like, like, you know again, show me 571 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: you can handle success, right, show me show me you 572 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 1: understand sports and not just say, oh, well, hey, guess 573 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: what the players all say they'd rather go play in Nashville, 574 00:27:58,080 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: So that's what we're gonna expect. Oh, so we can 575 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 1: make that happened. Now we have people that are front 576 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,239 Speaker 1: the money and go up to like this is one 577 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: of those what are you doing what are you doing 578 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 1: when you're when you're taking on other cities that you 579 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: don't be I don't care if you don't like the city, 580 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: that's fine. And I would say this if I didn't 581 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: go vacation in Detroit and I got family lives in 582 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: Ohio too, And you know, my wife, she loves her 583 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: family in Ohio, can't stand the state because she's a 584 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: Michigan fan.

She doesn't want to do that. What 590 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: do you what are you doing? Like? 591 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 4: What? 592 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 1: Why would you possibly say that when it's cities that 593 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: you have to go play in and and it's that 594 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: are never going to forget that that? You know what? 595 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: These are all big market cities, Okay, These are all 596 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: bigger markets than where you play.

These are all play places to go. 599 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: When you say stuff like that, you just sound naive 600 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: and like you don't really understand the business of sports 601 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 1: and how things actually work. And I feel bad because, hey, 602 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: she's taken it avantage of a great situation, and I'm like, hey, 603 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 1: this is what all ed WNBA players should be doing 604 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: instead of worrying about how jealous they are about Caitland 605 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: Clark's success. Hey, let me realize that this is my 606 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: time to shine and my time for people to and 607 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: and time for people to know who I am. And 608 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: so even though I've been in the league for a 609 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: few years, people get who I am. Kelsey Plumb has 610 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: been in the league for a long time. People are 611 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: just starting to get to know who she is. Was 612 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: a leading scorer in college basketball before Caitlyn Clark came 613 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: in and broke the record. When you say something like this, 614 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: I go, come on, I mean, really, you just you really, 615 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: you just sound naive and you don't understand the business 616 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: of sports.

I think of prisons Superman, that's where you've 737 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 1: exiled the worst of the worst, or in the Superman 738 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 1: Supermax for now, now you're suddenly in with a face 739 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:56,760 Speaker 1: off with Castor Troy and uh yeah, okay, the supermax prison. 740 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: But this normally is where it gets really difficult for 741 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: a team to try to sustain winning because, hey, when 742 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,359 Speaker 1: the big star gets paid, there's only so much money 743 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 1: with the salary cap. But for Oklahoma City, because of 744 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:12,439 Speaker 1: the way they have built this team with, yes, they're 745 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 1: gonna wind up losing a couple of people along the way. Right, 746 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: are they gonna keep Williams? They're gonna keep Chet? Is 747 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 1: it gonna keep lou Dort long term? 748 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 4: Right? 749 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: Can they keep Alex Caruso again? If they want to hear, 750 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: they're gonna lose some guys. But they have the money. 751 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: You look at the money they have to spend, and 752 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: they have the first round draft picks where they can 753 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: sustain winning for much lowis why we talked about, Hey, 754 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,800 Speaker 1: this is not just a one moment top of the mountain, like. 755 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: They can sustain winning for a long time because they 756 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: are well positioned because they're not paying a lot of people. 757 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 1: There's no bad contracts there. Yes, some guys you just kicks. 758 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 1: You can't keep everybody. But when you can turn over 759 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 1: and say, okay, if we lose Chet Homegrin in a 760 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: couple of years, whatever, it is, Hey, we can package 761 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: three number one picks, move up and get a guy 762 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 1: we think is gonna be him. And then we got 763 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,919 Speaker 1: a guy in his rookie contract and SGA is twenty 764 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,759 Speaker 1: nine years old and still in his prime, like for 765 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 1: able to do it, Like they've done everything right. And 766 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 1: this is like a model organization when it comes to 767 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: this is how we build for sustained sex. But that's 768 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,719 Speaker 1: the point, right, is that you need that organizational stability. 769 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 1: They know how as it transitions to this new era 770 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 1: of the second April and all these different rules as 771 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 1: to how you have to operate and construct a squad. 772 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 1: Having positioned themselves with seemingly an endless supply of first 773 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 1: round picks, you're always able to do a slow, slow reset, 774 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 1: you know, shuffle a couple of those off like rocks 775 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: at the yard. At shakshak. He's like, yeah, all right, 776 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: we brought in somebody else to replace that guy that 777 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:45,399 Speaker 1: escaped Shake Gildess. Alexander, with this deal, also now has 778 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 1: the highest average annual value contract at seventy one point 779 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 1: twenty five million, besting Sho Hee Otani had seventy million dollars, 780 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 1: and ahead of Jason Tatum sixty two million. He seems 781 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: like a slacker now. Now the other appreciation moment here 782 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: because again we talked about them throughout the NBA Finals. 783 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: This is a model organization with how to build sustained success. 784 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 1: They did it tonight. Jacob deGrom won his fifth consecutive start. 785 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 1: He has now had fourteen straight starts with at least 786 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,840 Speaker 1: five innings and allowing two runs or fewer. That's the 787 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 1: longest streak in the majors. He is now nine and 788 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: two and an era getting down towards two two point 789 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 1: one point three. I mean maybe he and I are 790 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 1: were all on PhD weight loss together, you me and him, 791 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 1: because now he's getting down towards two hundred. This is 792 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: someone who I never would be healthy. I never thought 793 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 1: he'd be able to make twenty starts in a season. 794 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 1: Let let alone what word he's on pace to do 795 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: right now. And this is also to get into the 796 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 1: thick of the Cy Young race. Yes, he's got a 797 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: ways to go, because you have a couple of guys 798 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: in the American League that are absolutely fantastic. But for 799 00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 1: him to be at this level when I never thought 800 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 1: he'd get healthy enough and you hold your breath and 801 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 1: you go out to pitch because you never know what 802 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: de Grom this is some kind of run after really 803 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:02,760 Speaker 1: being away from baseball for so long, including the Rangers 804 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 1: and winning the World Series and de Gram not being 805 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: able to stay in and out of the lineup for 806 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: him being at this level, I mean, this is absolutely insane. 807 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 1: And the only thing that could derail this is he 808 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: could get trade at the deadline because he's owed a 809 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: lot of money and the Raid, Hey, you know, we 810 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,399 Speaker 1: got to strike while the iron's hot. Maybe the Mets 811 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 1: try to trade for him and bring him back and say, hey, Jacob, 812 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: things are gonna work. We need pitchers. But that's the 813 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: only thing that gets in the way of this, because 814 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 1: he has been phenomenal. What's he needed one or two 815 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 1: more wins to match what he had as a total 816 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: to winning a Cy Young Award back in the day, right, 817 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 1: but seventeen starts.
