All right, 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:53.360 this is really behind the curtain. Michael Davies is the 0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:58.000 executive producer, and h I think the company's embassy row. 0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:01.120 They produce Good Morning Football. They've done a wonderful job. 0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:06.400 So whenever I see Michael Davies succeed, I get angry. 0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:09.840 I'll take you back many, many, many many years ago 0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:13.200 when there was a show that was just starting out, 0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:16.720 Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Well, guess who was 0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:19.359 the executive producer of Who Wants to be a millionaire 0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:25.359 Michael Davies who calls me out from Bristol, Connecticut when 0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:27.440 I was doing Sports Center and says, I want you 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:29.360 to come out. I got a show I want you 0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:33.560 to do. I fly out. We go to Century City, 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.960 I go to his office. We sit there, we talk. 0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:39.880 We watched game shows from around the world, a lot 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:44.800 of game shows from Japan, and he's just looking for ideas. 0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:48.200 And then I finally said, well what am I doing here? 0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:50.480 He goes, I'm going to give you this show Who 0:03:50.520 --> 0:03:52.760 Wants to be a Millionaire. I just got to tell 0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:56.520 Regis Philbin that I'll get something else for him. So 0:03:56.560 --> 0:04:00.320 I'm thinking, all right, Michael Davies, sounds good, let's be 0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:02.920 a millionaire. Hopefully you're paying me a million to be 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:07.160 on Who Wants to be a Millionaire. I go back home. 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:10.080 I tell him my wife, I'm gonna get this show. 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:14.680 Next thing I know, TV Guide has Regis Philbin on 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:18.159 the cover with Who Wants to be a Millionaire? All right, everybody, 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:24.520 Michael Davies, Yes, I guess who is a millionaire of that? Michael? 0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:27.640 He wants to be a millionim he was, He's got 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:29.640 a lock on it. He's running Jeopardy. Now day, Oh, 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:33.359 I know there's another show. He picked up Jeopardy. He 0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:35.240 had nothing to do in April, he said, take I 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:39.240 was I, of course, was gonna be a replacement for 0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:42.080 Alex Trebec many years ago with the previous head of 0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:47.000 Sony TV. He came back from France. Uh. We met 0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:49.919 in New York and he said, if Alex steps down 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:52.960 and retires that I'm gonna give you the job. You 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:58.839 interested and I said sure. Next thing I know, he 0:04:59.040 --> 0:05:03.240 ended up. Alex Stade, the guy that was gonna hire 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:05.839 me got fired and they brought in somebody else and 0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:14.159 then that was it. Other than that, last night was great. Great, Yeah, Paul, 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:16.560 here's the tougher part. We're in this little group of 0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:18.919 people and there's the people sitting next to us. I 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:21.120 didn't know their names, but they were high end producer 0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:26.159 guys for NBC Sports about six categories in It's Outstanding Team, 0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:29.279 Live Event Special and if some Olympic coverage, these two 0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:31.680 guys and they call them like they get up walk back. 0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:33.800 So for the rest of the night, there's a huge 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:35.800 Emmy in the lap of the gentleman next to me 0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:39.400 just taunting me the whole night. Is that a sports Emmy? 0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:45.839 Or are you just happy to see me and it's gigantic? Yeah? Yeah, eaton? 0:05:47.440 --> 0:05:49.480 Do you want a new poll question or why not? 0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:53.000 It doesn't matter. You know, we're sleep deprived, trying to 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:56.440 keep everybody awake here, Marvin fell asleep on the party 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:59.680 bus last night. Come on, let's go, come on, coverage, 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:03.800 let's go, let's go. Thank you, Mark, What do you 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:05.920 have for me? Seeing a new pole question for me? 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:08.960 All right? Which is more worthy of recognition talking about 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:14.400 one sport or talking about all sorts? I think it's 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:17.880 harder talking about one sport. For how many hours Good 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:20.800 Morning Football is on? They owned two hours or three hours? Yeah, 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:23.880 it's like one and a half with commercials. Oh okay, 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:26.440 what about Good Morning Dan Patrick's show? We change the 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:28.920 name good Morning dan Patrick. We fool some people to 0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:31.560 like to be voting axt year, like, ye know, good morning? Okay, 0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:33.640 good Morning dan Patrick? Yes, Todd, there was a whole 0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:36.000 bunch of awards that were given to three sixty at 0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:37.200 the end of the day, So made do you go 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:40.080 Dan Patrick's Show three sixty to get a couple more votes? Whatever? 0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:42.520 It changes? That seemed like a popular whatever, but see, 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:46.640 I feel like we disappointed the audience. You know, they 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:51.040 live vicariously through us, and I was carrying those hopes, 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:55.120 in those dreams. I was gonna make somebody smile, make 0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:58.960 somebody happy. Yeah. See, Based on social media, I'd say 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:03.320 that our audience is more put it in the sports. 0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:09.360 It was trending. It was trending the reaction our fans 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:13.600 gave to the Sports Emmys, and I went, yes, Now, 0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:17.920 I don't want anybody to get angry, like overly angry, 0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:21.160 but I like that you were hurt as well and 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:25.920 disappointed as well, and so were we.

I don't know if you invited 0:08:17.920 --> 0:08:20.760 Peter Schreger or Kay Adams. I'm going to guess they're 0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:23.160 not going, but we did send you a video just 0:08:23.240 --> 0:08:26.080 to say thank you for having us in your thoughts. 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:32.600 Nick and South Carolina.

You're never 0:09:05.000 --> 0:09:07.560 as funny as you think you are. It's like the 0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:09.400 guy who gets up there and gives you the best 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:12.800 man's speech at a wedding.

Last thing 0:13:23.320 --> 0:13:25.240 about the party bus, I was sitting way in back 0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:27.560 and I put the seatbelt on and it goes across 0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:29.920 your lap and chest.

That's 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:50.280 mb usa dot com, all right, uh, Albert Breer Monday 0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:52.840 Morning Quarterbacks set to join us. A few topics to 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:57.040 dive into. Let me start with Deshaun Watson. The commissioners 0:16:57.080 --> 0:17:00.160 said that they're wrapping up the investigation, then they turn 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:04.120 it over to their disciplinary committee. Are they two separate 0:17:04.160 --> 0:17:06.520 parties where the commissioner is not going to rule on 0:17:06.600 --> 0:17:10.400 Deshaun launchon? Yeah, it goes to the disciplinary committee where 0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:13.200 they make a recommendation to the commissioner and the commissioner 0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:16.480 has to make the final decision. But I mean, I 0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:19.520 every indication you get the commissioner a sort of the 0:17:19.560 --> 0:17:21.600 way that the reason it was done this way was 0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:24.560 because I don't know that the commissioner wants to be judge, 0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:28.680 Jerry and executioner anymore. And I think that this is 0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:30.399 the way that the union wanted it to when they 0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:32.960 were negotiating these things a couple of years ago. So 0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:37.080 you know, that's sort of where it is. They always 0:17:37.119 --> 0:17:39.720 talk to the player, almost always talked to the player last, 0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:43.439 which is that happened last week in Texas. And I 0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:45.920 think the one loose end you want to pay attention 0:17:45.960 --> 0:17:50.280 to here now is there still about a month of 0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:54.520 discovery left, and so they don't really need to make 0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:58.439 a decision before training camp. There's no real urgency to 0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:00.320 do it before training camp. I know some people have 0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:02.879 sort of pointed to this weekend and said, well, you know, 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:05.960 this could be the bad news dump. I just don't 0:18:06.080 --> 0:18:09.680 know that they even though the investigation has, you know, 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:13.359 pretty much wrapped up, I don't know they would want 0:18:13.400 --> 0:18:15.960 to jump the gun if they don't have to at 0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:20.439 this point, because, you know, just knowing that the discovery 0:18:20.440 --> 0:18:22.639 phase is going to be over when we get to 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:26.359 July thirtieth and then July first, they could very easily 0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:29.760 just make their decision with a little bit more information 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:31.680 and a little bit more clarity what's going to come 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:34.120 out in the courts over the course the next couple 0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:36.440 of I mean, maybe the next couple of years. How 0:18:36.440 --> 0:18:39.520 do you think the commissioner factors in two grand juries, 0:18:39.960 --> 0:18:44.320 didn't decide to indict him. Now you have civil cases, 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:51.600 you have twenty two women, Roethlisberger, Ezekiel Elliott. Are they 0:18:51.680 --> 0:18:54.240 going to be sort of the blueprints here of what 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:58.000 the commissioner might do in a situation like this? Yeah, 0:18:58.040 --> 0:18:59.680 I think so. And you know, one of the things 0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:02.520 to pay tention to Dan is, like those two cases 0:19:02.640 --> 0:19:07.320 Zeke and Roethlisberger happened before, there was like a change 0:19:07.320 --> 0:19:09.080 in the way that they do these things, and that 0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:12.639 you know, back then, I don't think they minded preempting 0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:15.480 a court decision. Since then, they've been a lot more 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:19.399 hesitant to to do these sorts of things. They've stubbed 0:19:19.400 --> 0:19:21.879 their toe on numerous occasions getting ahead of the courts, 0:19:21.960 --> 0:19:25.440 Ray Rice, Josh Brown. There are examples of it. And 0:19:25.520 --> 0:19:28.639 so I think in this case, you know, would you 0:19:28.720 --> 0:19:32.640 like to have complete closure on the legal process? Yeah, 0:19:32.720 --> 0:19:35.000 you would. I think it's too high profile a case 0:19:35.040 --> 0:19:36.919 to leave. This is a loose end through the twenty 0:19:36.960 --> 0:19:39.960 twenty two season. So I think what you're going to 0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:43.439 see is they likely suspend him, and I think for 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.240 a significant period of time, and I think the way 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:47.800 this is going to be laid out is that he 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:50.639 was irresponsible and put himself in these situations, whether he 0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:53.480 was guilty or not, he put himself in a position 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:57.119 to embarrass his team, to embarrass the league, which is 0:19:57.280 --> 0:19:59.480 sort of what the verbiage was on Roethlisberger back in 0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:02.720 two thousand and ten. And then I think, because there's 0:20:02.760 --> 0:20:07.640 still you know, the open ended miss of the legal process, 0:20:07.720 --> 0:20:10.840 because the civil you know, the civil case hasn't the 0:20:10.840 --> 0:20:14.760 civil cases haven't run their course, I think the commissioners 0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:17.080 also going to leave open the possibility that he could 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:19.679 add to the punishment if more stuff comes out in 0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:22.800 twenty twenty three. Because again, like and I'm sure you 0:20:22.800 --> 0:20:25.560 guys have been over this, they've come to an agreement. 0:20:25.600 --> 0:20:27.280 The sides have come to an agreement that, you know, 0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:30.560 once training camp starts, they're going to sort of press 0:20:30.640 --> 0:20:33.399 pause on the civil cases and pick it up again 0:20:33.640 --> 0:20:37.960 March first. And so if there's no closure, if there's 0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:40.800 no settlement between now and the beginning of training camp, 0:20:41.520 --> 0:20:43.720 we're not going to have closure on this until twenty 0:20:43.760 --> 0:20:46.640 twenty three. Helped me understand that the owner has had 0:20:46.640 --> 0:20:50.680 an epiphany and now they want to kind of take 0:20:50.720 --> 0:20:54.280 inventory with Daniel Snyder, like like, now you might want 0:20:54.280 --> 0:20:56.080 to vote on whether you want to keep him as 0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:59.159 an owner, Like he's embarrassed the shield. I mean, what 0:20:59.560 --> 0:21:02.359 does he know that's positive for the game and for 0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:06.320 that franchise that now these owners may decide that they 0:21:06.359 --> 0:21:09.920 don't want him in their fraternity anymore. Yeah, I think 0:21:10.160 --> 0:21:13.199 you know it's well, Hey, there's the financial part of it, 0:21:13.240 --> 0:21:15.639 which I mean, there's the whole don't mess with my 0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:19.439 money thing and all of that, And I think, like 0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:22.959 if you pay attention to the way the commissioners talked, 0:21:23.480 --> 0:21:25.760 I think you really saw a change at the Super Bowl. 0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:30.240 He is very, very careful. Roger is about stepping on 0:21:30.280 --> 0:21:32.119 the toes of any of his bosses. And that's what 0:21:32.160 --> 0:21:34.600 the thirty one owners are, right, those are his bosses, 0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:40.080 and he's careful about speaking for them. And the Super 0:21:40.080 --> 0:21:43.760 Bowl he actually detailed the process for voting one of 0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:46.760 them out, you know, And I thought, like to myself, 0:21:46.760 --> 0:21:48.040 when you heard him say that, and I know it 0:21:48.040 --> 0:21:49.680 didn't get a ton of attention, but when you heard 0:21:49.720 --> 0:21:52.439 him say that, there had to be people who signed 0:21:52.440 --> 0:21:54.160 off on that, you know what I mean, Like there 0:21:54.200 --> 0:21:56.280 had to be people who said we're okay with you 0:21:56.359 --> 0:21:59.520 going forward and talking about this publicly, you know, And 0:21:59.520 --> 0:22:03.360 so I think there has been a change in that 0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:06.200 this one thing has led to another has led to another. 0:22:06.960 --> 0:22:10.159 And you know, I still don't think we're at the 0:22:10.160 --> 0:22:13.359 point where they're going to vote him out yet. I 0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:16.359 think what happens with the Mary Joe White investigation is 0:22:16.359 --> 0:22:18.120 going to be pivotal to whether or not we get 0:22:18.119 --> 0:22:21.000 to that point. But they've already sort of broken the 0:22:21.040 --> 0:22:24.760 seal on starting to talk about it, and that's a 0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:29.480 step towards the nuclear option. And I think they're gonna 0:22:29.480 --> 0:22:32.440 be very very careful about pressing that nuclear button because 0:22:32.440 --> 0:22:34.080 of what it means for all of them, the president 0:22:34.119 --> 0:22:37.600 of taking somebody else's team away, the possibility that Snyder 0:22:37.680 --> 0:22:40.000 all of a sudden returns fire on some of the guys, 0:22:40.960 --> 0:22:44.399 What could happen if people are digging through other owners trash. 0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:47.720 But you know, I think a lot of it's going 0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:49.880 to sort of ride on what's in that Mary Joe 0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:53.600 White report and then also like to what level. And 0:22:53.680 --> 0:22:56.600 I know this sounds horrible because you know, you're talking about, 0:22:56.720 --> 0:23:00.240 you know, financially screwing somebody versus some of the way 0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:03.280 worse stuff that happened in that organization. But I do 0:23:03.320 --> 0:23:04.800 think part of this is going to be to what 0:23:04.920 --> 0:23:08.800 level was Daniel Snyder screwing the rest of his partners 0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:13.760 financially talking Albert Breer, senior NFL reporter, lead content strategists 0:23:13.800 --> 0:23:17.720 for the Monday Morning Quarterback a couple other topics here 0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:21.439 to touch on Aaron Donald's situation. I think he has 0:23:21.480 --> 0:23:25.840 what three years fifty five million left, That's right, He's 0:23:25.840 --> 0:23:29.320 looking at these other numbers that people are getting. What 0:23:30.080 --> 0:23:32.159 do you think the future is? And I don't know 0:23:32.200 --> 0:23:35.080 what the RAMS salary camp is to be able to 0:23:35.160 --> 0:23:38.080 do something new for him. But where are we headed 0:23:38.119 --> 0:23:40.239 with the RAMS and Aaron don't Yeah, I mean I 0:23:40.240 --> 0:23:42.760 think like the Aaron Donald, I think Aaron Donald and 0:23:42.840 --> 0:23:45.560
