Speaker 2: It's supposed to clear up, you know later Today it

40
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 2: has rained a few hours a day, then it clears up.

41
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 2: Good for the you know, especially the players that's playing

42
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: in the roseball Badma Michigan. They won't have to worry

43
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: about playing in the rain. It's gonna clear up by Monday.

44
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: But what ain't gonna clear up is that relationship between

45
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson and the Denver Brock They're headed for a

46
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,679
Speaker 2: divorce right now. They separated, They just living in the

47
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 2: same house. Divorce is coming shortly. I knew it was

48
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 2: problems when Sean Payton went off on Russell Wilson because

49
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: I had never seen any coach go off on his

50
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 2: quarterback like that, ever on the sideline during the game,

51
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 2: right never. What do you make of what has transpired

52
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: this week? Now, Okay he's been benched, Okay, we're going

53
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 2: to Jared Stidham. Now Russell Wilson comes out and says, oh, yeah,

54
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: they approached me after the Chiefs came taught me. If

55
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 2: I didn't push back my guarantees, they ever gonna bitch me.

56
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 2: What do you make of the situation that's going on

57
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 2: with Denver Broncos and Russell Wilson? Man, When I first

58
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 2: heard that, I was like, wow, Man, I was floored.

59
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: I mean I really was.

60
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 3: And now you know, us as players, like we know

61
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 3: the business, we know the things that go on behind clothes,

62
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 3: going in those walls. And now the public is getting

63
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 3: a sense of how ruthless this business can be. I

64
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 3: don't remember a time where a guy would sign a

65
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 3: contract and the organization and the team would come to

66
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 3: him and tell him if he doesn't renegotiate his contract

67
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 3: from an injury standpoint, we're gonna bench you. So you're

68
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: not going to get your guaranteed money. So basically, Russell

69
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 3: Wilson is a healthy scratch. They are not mathematically out

70
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 3: of the playoffs. So with that being said, they're like, listen,

71
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 3: we don't give a damn about the playoffs, but Russell

72
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 3: Wilson is not going to get his damn money.

73
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 2: Either, right, And that's basically what they've come.

74
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 3: Out and and and and done and said and for

75
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 3: and for John Elway to be a former player and

76
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 3: the general manager of this team, to come to more,

77
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 3: to come to a player, and to understand to know

78
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 3: how hard this game is to play, and we play

79
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 3: it from you know, from a love and passion and

80
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 3: going out there and you know, making money and doing

81
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 3: all the things that we aspire to be. For him

82
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 3: to pull this on Russell Wilson, John Elway, you should

83
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: be ashamed of yourself. He really should be, because now

84
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 3: what you've said to your team, Sean Payton, this organization,

85
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 3: former players, players and everybody on the outside looking, and

86
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 3: you don't even give a damn about the team and

87
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 3: making the playoffs. You're going to scratch Russell Wilson, who

88
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 3: was able to play and he gives you the best

89
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 3: option to win at the quarterback, but that doesn't matter

90
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 3: to you anymore. It's come so much of a business

91
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 3: that you are willing to take money out of this

92
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 3: guy's pocket because I guess you. I guess you think

93
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 3: he's undeserving of it. You guys signed the contract. Never

94
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 3: in your right mind would you say thanks to yourself

95
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 3: as a player like man, well, listen, you know if

96
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 3: I can stay healthy and you know, playoffs sixteen games,

97
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,920
Speaker 3: then you know I'll get my guaranteed money in the offseason.

98
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 3: Not for one second do you think that the team

99
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 3: is going to bench you on purpose so you don't

100
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 3: get paid. And man, that for Russell Wilson to come

101
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 3: out and say, well, he said yesterday a couple of

102
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 3: days ago, that the team came to him and they

103
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 3: told him.

104
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 2: After the Chiefs came. After you beat the Chiefs, if.

105
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 3: You don't renew gains, renegotiate your contract, we're gonna bench

106
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 3: you so you don't get your guaranteed money. And he's

107
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 3: able to play, but you take him out of the game,

108
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 3: you name him. He's not the starting quarterback and the

109
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 3: only way that he cannot get his money is that

110
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 3: he is physically unable to throw a football, and the

111
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 3: only way.

112
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 2: For them to do that is to take him out

113
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: of the game. I remember.

114
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 3: This may have happened, you know, not to this degree,

115
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 3: but I've seen two instances happen with two players who

116
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 3: I have a lot of, you know, having Ration four.

117
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 3: One was Charles Woodson and the other one was Donovan McNabb.

118
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 3: Because I'm saying to myself, you look at these Hall

119
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 3: of Fame worthy gentlemen and where they were in their

120
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 3: career and what they gave to those organizations and to

121
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 3: be able to be let go. Obviously, you know Charles

122
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 3: Woodson going to Green Bay, and obviously you know Donovan McNabb.

123
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 3: I believe he went to Washington after this transpired. But

124
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 3: both of these guys had ten million dollars signing bonuses,

125
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 3: I mean roster bonuses in their contracts in the last

126
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 3: year of their deals ten million dollars and they would

127
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,239
Speaker 3: do this roster bonus in March, and the Oakland Raiders

128
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 3: at the time and the Philadelphia Eagles chose to move

129
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 3: on from Charles Woodson and Donovan McNabb over ten million

130
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 3: dollar roster bonuses. Who guys that you thought would never

131
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 3: leave an organization. If that was one of the instances

132
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 3: that I saw as a player, and I started doing

133
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 3: my contracts different, I didn't receive any roster bonuses, you know,

134
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 3: in my contract after I have seen teams do that

135
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 3: to them, because I'm like, well, damn if they can't

136
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 3: do that to Charles Wilson, Donald May, they can damn

137
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 3: sure do it to me. So I started doing my

138
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 3: contract different moving forward, try to get you know, musch

139
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 3: is my guaranteed money. In the first two or three years,

140
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 3: I never had a roster bonus going into a fourth

141
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,839
Speaker 3: fie of my deal because when I saw that, it's like,

142
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 3: you know what, all that money is figuring into your contract,

143
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,839
Speaker 3: I'm gonna never see it. And that was what I

144
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 3: was afraid of. But now I see this John Elway

145
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 3: You've taken thirty seven million dollars out of this man

146
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 3: pocket from a former player that saying that played the

147
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 3: same position for this organization. Man, he's not John Elway.

148
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 3: It's the gim George pat And let's be honest. What

149
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 3: do you think John Lway is.

150
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 2: Let's be honest. It's Sean Payton. This is called the

151
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 2: what it is, it's Sean Payton. It's Sean Payton. No,

152
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 2: and I don't believe Sean. I don't believe Sean Payton

153
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 2: gets in gets involved with a contract with Russell Wilson

154
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 2: before he even got there. I don't believe it. Sean Payton.

155
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 2: Listen the way. Let me just say this. Russell Wilson

156
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 2: has He's playing good football this year. He played terrible

157
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 2: football last year. But Russell Wilson was never the quarterback

158
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 2: that was going to be the reason you win big.

159
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 2: He wasn't that In Seattle. It was more of a

160
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 2: team effort than it was. Okay, let's get on Russell's

161
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 2: back and he's gonna carry us. Now, when you go

162
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 2: back just just this year, and I'm going back to

163
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 2: when Sean Payton went off on Russell Wilson, it all

164
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 2: makes sense now. But Sean Payton is lucky he chose

165
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 2: the right one. And it's how you know Russell Wilson

166
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 2: is a true professional. Because Sean Payton would have chose

167
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,599
Speaker 2: the wrong one, they would have ended up bad. And

168
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: he knows that. And I'm just bringing the viewers into

169
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 2: how grown men in the locker room, like I don't

170
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 2: play with some dudes that you disrespect them anyway. It

171
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 2: didn't matter who it was, they was putting hands on

172
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 2: you like coaches were scared of guys. Absolutely, And for

173
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 2: him to do that on the sideline and Russell not responded,

174
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 2: knowing what was going on behind closed doors, knowing they

175
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 2: wanted to bench them, knowing he said no. And so

176
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 2: I think that kind of pissed Chempayton off and so

177
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 2: he berated him on the sideline. He lucky it was

178
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson and the type of professional duty was or

179
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 2: that he is because he just sit there and took it.

180
00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:58,200
Speaker 2: So TJ.

181
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 3: So let me ask you this question. If you if

182
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 3: you think Sean Payton made this decision, then why didn't

183
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 3: he put him on the bench after the Kansas City game?

184
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 3: Probably because they won. He could have came out and said,

185
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson's not playing this week. He's not the starting quarterback.

186
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,599
Speaker 3: If Sean Payton was in charge of his decision, it

187
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 3: would have been done way before now, because he makes

188
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 3: the call as a court as the head coach.

189
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 2: He says who's starting, who's not. So it didn't come

190
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 2: from Sean Payton. But Sean Payton is running the show

191
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 2: on that team. We all know that he's running the show.

192
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:44,719
Speaker 2: We know that, like Sean Payton has the power, he

193
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:50,959
Speaker 2: is running that show. And so and I'll get it.

194
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 2: I get it. Maybe Russell Wilson isn't operating the offense

195
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,079
Speaker 2: the way Sean paygne wants. That's fine, football White. He

196
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 2: may not be playing the way Sean Payton expects him

197
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 2: to plan wants him to play. That, that's fine, But

198
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 2: to disrespect him the way that he did on national television, like, yeah,

199
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 2: you're the coach and technically you're our boss when I

200
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 2: say our the players, but it has to be a respect.

201
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 2: I'm telling you. When I saw that, I was like, wow,

202
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 2: Like I don't recall ever seeing that because I know

203
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: some of the players that I've played with, and I

204
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 2: know how crazy these dudes were and I'm like, man,

205
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 2: he lucky he didn't do that to the wrong dude.

206
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,599
Speaker 2: And Sean Payton can be fiery, and you know that

207
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 2: was our generation of coaches. You know, they getting your face,

208
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 2: they yell at you, they cuts you out. And now

209
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 2: we're seeing the generation of coaches that they don't do

210
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 2: those type of things. It's more of a let's work

211
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 2: things out, let's talk type of thing. And so for

212
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson, yeah, they're separated right now. The divorce is

213
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 2: coming very very soon. It's now where can he land

214
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 2: on his feet? What does Jared Stillelm do last year

215
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 2: when the Raiders Jared sidem is like, this just must

216
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: be par for the course for him because the Raider's

217
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 2: benched their carr And if I'm not mistaken, Jared Stillm's

218
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 2: first start was against the forty nine ers and he

219
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 2: went crazy. They lost, but man, he played lights out,

220
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 2: and so if he plays lights out, they're oh, they

221
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 2: should have been bench Russell Wilson. And we're not talking

222
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 2: about you know, Russell Wilson's play here. If Sean Payton

223
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 2: doesn't feel like he's playing football the way I need

224
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 2: my quarterbacks to play, I get it. I'm not removing

225
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 2: any language out my contract, no sir. I'm not pushing

226
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 2: anything back, no sir. As players understand this first and foremost.

227
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 2: At all times, it's a business. At all times. It's

228
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 2: a business because as much as we love football, it's

229
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 2: always a business to them, always, always, So regardless.

230
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 3: Of what happens with the Denver Broncers moving forward, if

231
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 3: Stillham comes out and he's playing off he has two

232
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 3: or three picks in the first quarter, first half, Russell

233
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 3: Wilson does not see the football field for the rest

234
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 3: of the season.

235
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 2: Noah, No, no, no, no, He's not seeing the field

236
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 2: the rest of the season, no chance.

237
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: No.

238
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 2: And it goes to show you and what you what

239
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 2: you just said. They're still mathematically alive for the playoffs.

240
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 2: I've seen and that's what I'm saying. And so these

241
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 2: coaches get up and preach this and preach does it

242
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 2: really matter? Or is it the financial team first team?

243
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 2: First team first? This ain't team first. What about the

244
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 2: rest of the players that roster that feel like Russell

245
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 2: Wilson gives them the best chance? What about those guys?

246
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 2: Is it is it about winning now or is it

247
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 2: about the business? And so what is it. You know

248
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: that that's the thing that people don't take into account.

249
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 2: There's people in that locker room that support Russell Wilson.

250
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 2: And when this came out, I'll be honest with you,

251
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 2: plex I was like, you know, the Broncos, this is

252
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 2: if this is what they want to do, this is fine.

253
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 2: I was okay with it, but now fed out why

254
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 2: it was happening. Yeah, now now I'm not okay with

255
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 2: it now that that's not cool because plex I played

256
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 2: with a guy. When he got cut, the team hired security.

257
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 2: They were scared of him, they were scared to cut them.

258
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,520
Speaker 2: They hired security that when they went and told him

259
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 2: he was being released, security was there present because they

260
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 2: ain't know what he was gonna do. I'm like, and

261
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 2: the but her listening, I don't think they understand, Like,

262
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 2: how out to control some of these dudes be oh,

263
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 2: you're gonna cut me? Oh okay, I'm a tear this

264
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 2: thing up then, And if you're in here, you part

265
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 2: of what's gonna get torn up. And so Russell Wilson

266
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 2: he handled it. Can you imagine being told this and

267
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 2: then you throw an interception in the game. You're like, oh,

268
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 2: that's gonna probably pull me down. Can you imagine what

269
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: was going through his mind? Yeah, because he knew what

270
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 2: was happening behind closed doors.

271
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 3: When I said to listen to his press conference, you know,

272
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 3: I said to myself, you know the way he has

273
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,120
Speaker 3: been playing over the last month and a half of

274
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 3: two months, and him knowing that, him knowing what was

275
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 3: said behind closed doors, have to deal with that day

276
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 3: in and day out from a mental standpoint, and didn't

277
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 3: have to go out and play. Well, You're going to

278
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 3: work every day as a player. You the starting quarterback

279
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 3: on his team, and you don't know on a day

280
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 3: to day basis if you're gonna be benched or not.

281
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 3: Because it's already been brought to your attention.

282
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, it's crazy. We gotta take a break. We

283

Speaker 2: see you next week. But happy New Year early, Happy

316
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 2: New Years from myself in Plexico to everyone listening this

317
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 2: college football playoff. Now, you know, if you're not in

318
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:02,920
Speaker 2: the college football playoff and you're gonna be a first

319
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 2: round pick, the thing to do is opt out, and

320
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 2: so the ball games really don't matter, you know. Let

321
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 2: me ask you this. This is not even on the rundown.

322
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this. Let's be quick with this.

323
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 2: What happens, pleax, when schools are now paying guys in

324
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 2: IL money and they opt out of a bowl game?

325
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 2: How that work? If you getting paid? If they start

326
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 2: allowing the schools to like pay the players, what happens

327
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 2: when the bowl game and they opt out because technically

328
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 2: you're being paid to play. I really don't know.

329
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,399
Speaker 3: I don't know if the little bowl game is considered

330
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 3: another season, but I think that it's actually gonna flip flop.

331
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 3: I think nil, and they're gonna start paying the players

332
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 3: to play in the bowl games. That's what I think

333
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,879
Speaker 3: is going to happen moving forward, just like just that

334
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 3: Marx amount to playing this one game, yep. And these

335
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 3: guys are opting out. If somebody comes to the Marvel

336
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 3: Ranson Jr. And be like, hey man, we're gonna give

337
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 3: you two million dollars of playing this bowl game. Now

338
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 3: everything is starting to change. And I think that's what

339
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 3: we're going to start to see from the NIL as

340
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,400
Speaker 3: far as these players skipping out on bowl games, it's

341
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 3: gonna start going the other way. Maybe maybe by the

342
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 3: sponsors or whoever the game is being helped by, like

343
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,479
Speaker 3: a Chick fil A. Maybe they come and say, hey,

344
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 3: you know what, so and so Kaylen Williams will give you,

345
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 3: you know, five hundred grand or whatever the case may

346
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 3: be to play in this bowl game because they want

347
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 3: the ratings and they want, you know, the revenue from

348
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 3: from their bowl game. So I think that's what that's

349
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 3: what's going to happen. But uh, you know, we've seen

350
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 3: this start to take place over the over the you know,

351
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 3: uh you know recently over the last ten years. You know,

352
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 3: guys that are high draft picks and just not putting

353
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 3: themselves in the harm's way as far as uh, you know,

354
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 3: going to the next level. One two guys that's just

355
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 3: popping popping to my mind. Is I mean you look

356
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 3: at uh, what's my guy's name that want to Alabama? Oh,

357
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 3: Jamison Williams ends upturning this a cl and the bowl

358
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 3: game down in Alabama is a missing basically this hole.

359
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 2: Man, that's crazy if they literally start to pay guys

360
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 2: for one game. But it can happen. I can see

361
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 2: it happening, not for one game, for over the course

362
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 2: of the season. And it can be when you play

363
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 2: in this game, you get this. When you play that game,

364
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 2: you get that type of deal. But it will be

365
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 2: interesting to see once players start to get paid, right,

366
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 2: do we continue to see the opt out now? Because

367
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 2: if you're not in the college football playoff and you're

368
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 2: at a premiere program like Ohio State and you get

369
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,640
Speaker 2: left out, it's like oh White playing a ball game.

370
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 2: So that that will be that would be interesting. I

371
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 2: was just thinking about that.

372
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 3: You say, also, but moving forward now with these nil

373
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 3: deals and these contracts for these players, the bowl game

374
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 3: will bleep implemented into the contract and the nil deal,

375
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,199
Speaker 3: your your deal, your n IL deal or what ever

376
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 3: is voided if you don't play in the bowl game.

377
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 3: So I think that's one of the ways that it's

378
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 3: going to be fixed Offso had.

379
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 2: To be interesting. Now, the first game on New Year's

380
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 2: Michigan Alabama. How's that gonna go with? Who you like?

381
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: You know what?

382
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 2: You Michigan?

383
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 3: This man, I just don't understand it from the player

384
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 3: from the player standpoint, did y'all really hold interviews and say,

385
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 3: we don't understand how Power five team that's undefeated, like

386
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 3: Florida State didn't get into the championship? Really, you don't

387
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 3: care about Florida State. You just don't want to play Alabama.

388
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 3: Everybody's sort of looks on your face when you got

389
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 3: Alabama on TV?

390
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 2: You really want that? Really happy? Were you?

391
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 3: You're number one team in the country and now you're

392
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 3: complaining about Alabama shouldn't even be here?

393
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? Don't do that? And you know what,

394
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 2: I'm a step further.

395
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 3: I think the worst thing that happened can happen in

396
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 3: Michigan in this game on New Year's Day is that

397
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 3: they just get manhandled and it's not going to be

398
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 3: a close game. If you want to make some money,

399
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 3: take the take the take the spread, and take Alabama

400
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:23,719
Speaker 3: money line, because if you give Nick Saban thirty days

401
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 3: to prepare for you for a football game.

402
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 2: You mentioned me, you can forget about it.

403
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 3: And if you're Michigan, every player at Alabama is better

404
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 3: than the player across from him at Michigan athletically, physically, speed,

405
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 3: whatever the case may be. They are going to be

406
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 3: in shock when they play against Alabama and they see

407
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,439
Speaker 3: how physical and how fast these guys that play the Alabama.

408
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 3: They don't go to Alabama to play the Alabama. They

409
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 3: go to Alabama to go to the league. Cats go

410
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 3: to Michigan, they go to play for Michigan. These castes

411
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 3: going to Alabama, they trying to go to the NFL,

412
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,479
Speaker 3: period of point blank. So when you get out there

413
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 3: Monday and you playing against you know these are this

414
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 3: premium talent. Just understand that you're playing against future NFL players.

415
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 2: Hey, well, just so you know, Michigan has future NFL

416
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,280
Speaker 2: players as well. So I'm gonna just let it be

417
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 2: the beating Alabama. Michigan win this game. I'm gonna tell

418
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 2: you what's gonna have. Michigan is so good up front

419
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,120
Speaker 2: on both sides of the ball, but they're a better

420
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 2: team than Alabama. Could barely run the football against Awell.

421
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 2: Did you watch the game? I mean these are id

422
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 2: number one barely run the ball against I because you

423
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 2: know what, Michigan is used to bullying everybody score Melroad

424
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 2: just gonna run around and how they gonna score. It's

425
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 2: the defense of Alabama that's gonna get Michigan so many parkers.

426
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 3: You know what.

427
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 2: If anything under under JJ McCarthy is not a very

428
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 2: accurate quarterback when it comes through on the football, Nick

429
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 2: Saban is not gonna let Michigan just line up and

430
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 2: run the football on it. He's gonna play man and

431
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 2: man press man on the corners. If you eventually, eventually

432
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 2: somebody gonna get open and or it'll be a couple

433
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 2: of big PI calls and tight ends are not going

434
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 2: to be able to get open against these defensive backs.

435
00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 2: I'm telling you.

436
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 3: Right now, they're gonna play man and man the whole

437
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 3: entire game and put eight in the box and take

438
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,719
Speaker 3: away the corn and that running game. And as far

439
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,880
Speaker 3: as that JJ McCarthy running sideline the sideline, Aladama's too fast.

440
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 3: You don't think they that Michigan has a tight end

441
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 3: back in They might have a tight end, but when

442
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 3: it comes to beat Man and man out there there.

443
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 3: I don't think their receivers can Like I just feel

444
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,719
Speaker 3: like Michigan is seeing overlook now.

445
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,719
Speaker 2: And I know you're biased because you know you are Spartan,

446
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 2: and I get I get the buying you.

447
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,399
Speaker 3: I'm telling you what Nick Saban is gonna bring the

448
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 3: Jim Hall ball and this football team. It's gonna be

449
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,440
Speaker 3: a lot of speed and a lot of physicality. And

450
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 3: they are not gonna let Michigan get up there and

451
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 3: run the football down their throat. That is not gonna happen.

452
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 3: They just beat Georgia. Do you think do you think

453
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 3: Michigan can beat Georgia?

454
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 2: Anybody can be beat Alabama beat Yeah, Alabama should have

455
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 2: lost to Auburn. I mean fourth and gold from the

456
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 2: thirty one yard line. That defensive coordinator wouldn't have made

457
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 2: it back to the locker room if I was an

458
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 2: Auburn coach.

459
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 3: B I'm just telling you what's gonna happen way against

460
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 3: these boys on Monday.

461
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 2: They gonna be like I believe, Michigan fast. It is

462
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 2: a better team than Alabama just overall. And you know,

463
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 2: Nick Saban having thirty days to prepare her ball has

464
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 2: thirty days to prepare and so that that goes, that

465
00:26:55,640 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 2: goes both ways. The interesting part is when how much

466
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 2: has Milrow improved in that time, because obviously we've seen

467
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 2: him improve over the course of the season, and so

468
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:15,639
Speaker 2: if he continues to progress, obviously now that gives Alabama

469
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 2: an advantage.

470
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 3: But growing the football is going to be a struggle

471
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 3: for Michigan playing against his defense and man and man comfort.

472
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 3: I'm not so sure of that, But I know what

473
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 3: I'm sure of. We must get Isaac Lowing Crime. We

474
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 3: gotta go to Ilow with the updates.

475
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 4: We got a trade that has just gone down, Fellas.

476
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 4: In the NBA, multiple outlets are reporting that the Toronto

477
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 4: Raptors are trading og Ananobi to the New York Knicks

478
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 4: for RJ. Barrett, a Manuel Quickly and a second round

479
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 4: draft pick. Meanwhile, in college football, at the Peach Bowl,

480
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,920
Speaker 4: we've got number ten Penn State and eleventh ranked Ole

481
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 4: miss tied at three with seven minutes and thirteen seconds

482
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 4: left to play in the first quarter. Last night at

483
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 4: the Cotton Bowl, ninth rank Missouri shut down number seven

484
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 4: Ohio State fourteen to three. They held the Buckeyes to

485
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 4: two hundred three yards of total offense and two out

486
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 4: of fifteen on third downs. In the NFL, the Philadelphia

487
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 4: Eagles have just downgraded linebackers Zach Cunningham and tight end

488
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 4: Albert o'koy Buondam to out for tomorrow's game against Arizona

489
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 4: due to injuries. The Green Bay Packers have downgraded cornerback

490
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,880
Speaker 4: Eric Stokes to out for tomorrow's game against the Minnesota

491
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 4: Vikings due to a hamstring injury. Finally fellas in tennis

492
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 4: today at the Brisbane Open in Australia, a first round

493
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 4: match between former US Open champion Dominic Team and Australia's

494
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 4: James McCabe was interrupted when a poisonous Eastern brown snake,

495
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 4: considered by experts to be the second deadliest snake in

496
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 4: the world, slithered onto the court. The match was temporarily

497
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 4: suspended and tournament officials called on a professional snake catcher

498
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 4: named Lucas Perett, who spoke with nine News in Queensland.

499
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 5: I was literally driving to my other job, but I

500
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 5: put a top down so he'd gone under the top.

501
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 2: He called himself up under there.

502
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,959
Speaker 5: It's obviously trying to keep himself safe, just chilling out,

503
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 5: trying to get away from the big cred.

504
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 2: I think my waffe is a massive tennis fan. We

505
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 2: actually have tickets for next Saturday and Sunday. And when

506
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 2: our textedgo I'm going to pick up a snipe from

507
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 2: the Brisbane International, she went, no way, get me an autograph.

508
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 4: No word yet whether the snake catcher's wife wanted an

509
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 4: autograph from a player or from the snake itself.

510
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:40,960
Speaker 1: Fellas back to you.

511
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 2: WHOA, wow, that's crazy. Well that trade is crazy to

512
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 2: me in the NBA. So we got cuffs that's joining

513
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 2: us last minute. That's what professionals do. Man, y'all need me.

514
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 2: I'm near cuffs. What's going on? Maybe? How you doing?

515
00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 6: Man? Man? We gotta we gotta send o block bus.

516
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 6: The trade going down Toronto and New York man RJ

517
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 6: Barrett in him packing.

518
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,959
Speaker 2: And that he's from Is he from Toronto?

519
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, he's from Canada. He's a Canada kid born and raided.

520
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 6: So I know he's really ecstatic right now to go

521
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 6: back home.

522
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 3: Man.

523
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 6: But I think I think the raptors might have fleeced

524
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 6: the Knicks.

525
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 2: In this trade. They fleeced them, That's what I said.

526
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 6: So Manuel quickly, right, Manuel, quickly who I picked to

527
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 6: be the sixth Man of the Year. It looks like

528
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 6: Austin Reeds is gonna get that, but I think it's

529
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 6: gonna work out well Manuel quickly because he's gonna get

530
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 6: an even bigger role with Toronto. So basically, right now,

531
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 6: you can say the Raptors got back two starters for

532
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 6: a guy that's averaging fifteen points. O g Autonobi like,

533
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 6: I don't really see the math mathing right now, but

534
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 6: we gonna see, man.

535
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 3: Man, the New York Knicks always are doing things that

536
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,200
Speaker 3: don't add up, mathmatic, whatever the case may be. But me,

537
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 3: but me being here man watching RJ Barrett play over

538
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 3: the last month and two month, he just hasn't been

539
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 3: playing well. You know, he's been slumping in as far

540
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 3: as making basket I don't think he had he has

541
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 3: He's had a twenty point game in the last month

542
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 3: and a half or whatever the case may be. And listen,

543
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 3: I just think that they weren't getting enough out of

544
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 3: him that they thought he was going to be in

545
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 3: what year, four, year five? Now, They really kind of

546
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 3: expected RJ to you know, really mature and to being

547
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 3: the NBA All Star caliber player, and he just hasn't

548
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 3: at this point.

549
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 6: You know what the problem is with RJ. Man. I've

550
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 6: always liked the kid. You know, I'm a Duke fan.

551
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 6: He went the Duke, he came up short of Duke.

552
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 6: He's always had the skill set as far as the

553
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,840
Speaker 6: natural physicality and all that. He has the NBA body.

554
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 6: I think the issue with RJ. Barrett is man. He

555
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 6: is just a one hand bandit. He has no right hand.

556
00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 6: He has no right hand, so he's lacking in the

557
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 6: skill development department. But I think he might have a

558
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 6: better role, you know, less pressure, you know, playing in

559
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 6: New York plaques, you played in New York. It's a

560
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 6: different type of microscope. So I think he gonna go

561
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 6: back home to Canada. You know that Canada air gonna

562
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 6: feel familiar to him. And I think he have an

563
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 6: even better situation in Canada with Scottie Barnes. You know,

564
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 6: they got a young team. They still trying to put

565
00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 6: it together. But yeah, RJ Man, he just needed a

566
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 6: clean slate, I think, Man. But like I said, he

567
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 6: a one hand bandit, so you got to work on

568
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 6: that right hand because he can't finish at the backet

569
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 6: with both hands.

570
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 2: And that's hurting him now if you make it that

571
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 2: far to the NBA. And you know, I wonder why

572
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 2: a lot of lefties are dominant to their strong can

573
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 2: over the righties. That's kind of odd. But how and

574
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 2: why would the Knicks give up two starters for og

575
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 2: when he's a great defensive player but he's not much

576
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 2: of a score. Or do they see he can be

577
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 2: a better score, a bigger score if given that type

578
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 2: of role.

579
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think they brought him in for his defense.

580
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 6: Like you said, he moved to puppies. Man. He's one

581
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 6: of the best on ball defenders in the league. Man.

582
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 6: But I think it's another move that gonna happen. And

583
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 6: I'm not saying this trade is gonna happen, but I'm

584
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 6: putting it out there. I think it's time to also

585
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 6: put together a package Julius Randall. We all know he

586
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 6: plays go to hell ball. Sometimes he has tunnel visions.

587
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 6: I think it's time. I would like to see Laurie

588
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 6: Marketing and Utah Jazz. New York Knicks need to hop

589
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 6: on the zoom call because the Garden will love Laurie Marketing.

590
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 6: And I don't think it's gonna I don't think Julius

591
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 6: Randall is that superstar that's gonna help you get the championship.

592
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 6: But I think what's really happening there is Nobody wants

593
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 6: to say this in the media, but the New York

594
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 6: Knicks realize now that they have to build around Jalen Brunton.

595
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 6: Jalen Brunton is a start man.

596
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I mean, I really honest, why that?

597
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 3: But you just looking at you know what obviously, man

598
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 3: Jalen brus has been able to do. Man has been nothing,

599
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 3: you know, less than exceptable because nobody includes myself, but

600
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 3: expecting them he be where he is right now his

601
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 3: career as far as being a start as bat basketball team.

602
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 3: I mean, even with the East of the Way that

603
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:10,960
Speaker 3: it is with Milwaukee and in Philadelphia and Miami, the Knicks,

604
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 3: even with this trade, it still doesn't give them what

605
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:17,720
Speaker 3: they need to be able to compete in the Eastern

606
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,280
Speaker 3: Conference because just like you said, I believe that Julian

607
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 3: needs a fresh stout also, and I don't know where

608
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 3: that's going to be.

609
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 2: But I think.

610
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 6: The fault Lake City plaque. Then on the fault Lake City,

611
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 6: it's night mounds out there. I've been to Park Lake

612
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 6: last All Star. He needs to go out there in Utah,

613
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 6: he averaged. Man, can you imagine Julius Randall and Utah

614
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 6: is a number one option. That's a problem. That's a

615
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 6: problem with Julius on the Knicks where it's Jalen Broughton's team.

616
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 6: Now he's the number one option, and I don't think

617
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,719
Speaker 6: that really sits well with Julius random some night. Some

618
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 6: nights we've seen Julius get thirty five, forty. He's a

619
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 6: he's a good player. I'm not knocking him. I just

620
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 6: think you need a big You need big it's like

621
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 6: sixteen and up that can space the floor. And Laurie marketing.

622
00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 6: I think the New York City crowd the Garden would

623
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 6: love Laurie in New York City. I'm just putting it

624

Speaker 6: out there in the atmosphere.

625
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:12,840
Speaker 2: That will be interesting. But I don't know if you

626
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 2: can win, if Jalen Brunton is your best player. When

Speaker 2: Radio Up on Game will be right back. Welcome back

641
00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 2: in Up on Game Live from the tire rack dot

642
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,360
Speaker 2: Com studios. I'm TJ. Houshman was out alongside Miss the

643
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 2: Plexico burs before I left, was talking second college football

644
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 2: playoff game, number two Washington Huskies versus the number three

645
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 2: Texas Longhorns. How do you see that game going?

646
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 3: You know what, Man, I really don't know. To be

647
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,720
Speaker 3: honest with you, I think Texas is a really good team. Obviously,

648
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 3: I haven't been able to watch Washington a whole lot,

649
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 3: but I did see him see them play about two

650
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 3: or three games this year with Michael Pennix, who I

651
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:47,240
Speaker 3: thought was the who I thought was the Heisman Trophy

652
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 3: winning with with what he was able to do with

653
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 3: this team this year, you know, going under feed down

654
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 3: in thirteen and oero and had none.

655
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 2: They have the chance to win, and that's the championship.

656
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:07,240
Speaker 3: I think the storyline for me is will will Texas

657
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 3: defensively be able to slow down this spread offense. I

658
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,439
Speaker 3: think I think Texas has the better team.

659
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 2: I do.

660
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 3: If I was, you know, uh to say to say

661
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 3: who when this game, I would think Texas. But I

662
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 3: think the one thing that concerns me about this is

663
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 3: that will Texas be able to stop this high powered

664
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 3: offense of Washington? And I think that's what it's going

665
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 3: to come down to. I think, uh, you know, Texas

666
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 3: is the better team. But and I love Texas. I

667
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 3: think yours and what they've been able to do so

668
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 3: keys in and bringing in these group of guys. But uh,

669
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 3: I'm just happy that they got in. I didn't think

670
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 3: they were going to get in, but I think that

671
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 3: won against Alabama, even though they're one lost team, propelled them,

672
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:59,120
Speaker 3: you know, into this uh third spot uh.

673
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 2: Of this college. But I'm going to go Texas.

674
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 3: I think it's going to be a really really close game.

675
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,399
Speaker 3: It may be the most exciting game of the two.

676
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 3: But I think Texas is going to win this game

677
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:11,319
Speaker 3: probably a lot field goal.

678
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 2: This game is so close on paper. Washington's offense is crazy.

679
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,959
Speaker 2: When you look at Michael Pennix possibly in the first round,

680
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:29,280
Speaker 2: Roma Donze probably a top ten pick, Jalen McMillan probably

681
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 2: a second round pick, Jalen Polk probably a second or

682
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 2: third round pick. And so they have NFL guys as

683
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 2: skilled players on offense. When you talk to quarterback in

684
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:46,440
Speaker 2: the three receivers, I don't know what other team has that,

685
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 2: not just in college football long let a long a

686
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 2: college football playoff, Who has that collection of skilled players

687
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,879
Speaker 2: on one team that will probably be drafted fairly high.

688
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,360
Speaker 2: The game's gonna be one or long in the trenches.

689
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 2: Washington's offensive line is good. Texas defensive line if they

690
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:14,399
Speaker 2: can rush four and give you Dub problems, Texas wins

691
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 2: this game. That's gonna be the key because in the

692
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 2: Pac twelve, outside of probably Oregon, who else has a

693
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 2: premier defensive front. And that's just being honest. You know

694
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 2: who else has a premier defensive front that Washington is faced.

695
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:37,839
Speaker 2: And so Texas has a premier defensive line. They can

696
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,439
Speaker 2: rotate guys, they have depth. So to me, that's where

697
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 2: the game will be won or loss. If Texas is

698
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 2: able to pressure Pinnix with four, it's gonna be in

699
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 2: Texas's favor because we Pennix wants to sit in the pocket.

700
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 2: Washington runs a lot of players that take time to develop.

701
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:57,439
Speaker 2: You know, they want to take shots down the field

702
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 2: because they had these big time receivers. And so that

703
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,440
Speaker 2: to me is where the game will be won or lost.

704
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 2: And when when you go with Texas has the ball

705
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 2: in Washington's on defense, if Quinn yours can stay healthy

706
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:15,359
Speaker 2: and finish this game, can the receivers Washington they don't

707
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:18,800
Speaker 2: have a ton of first round picks on defense, and

708
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 2: that doesn't matter, But can they slow them down? Xavier?

709
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 2: You're worthy extremely explosive receiver, a d Mitchell explosive receiver.

710
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 2: Can they slow them down? I like Texas in this game,

711
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 2: but it will To me, the key is can Texas's

712
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:40,760
Speaker 2: defensive front put pressure on Pinnicks If they cannot without Blitz.

713
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,359
Speaker 2: If they cannot and they have to lit Dubb's gonna

714
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 2: win this game. Yeah, And I'm with you, it's this

715
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,800
Speaker 2: can go either way. This can go either way, and

716
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 2: they're just so evenly matched. Texas is so talented, but

717
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 2: Man Washington offensively, I don't know when's the last time

718
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 2: we've seen a team this talented on offense in college football? Like,

719
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 2: very very very interesting. We gotta take a break. First

720
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 2: hour coming
