Remember some gave all and 18 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: it's just one of those things to think about as 19 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: we enjoy the last few days and why we can 20 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I want to say this because 21 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: you know, the open the knicks and every that. I 22 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: want to say, how am I after after yesterday? I'm 23 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: gonna surprise you. I'm good. I'm good because what the 24 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 1: Knicks did was they bought a day. They bought a day, 25 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 1: they bought a game. Right, they didn't do it. They 26 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: bought a game. The series could have ended and instead, okay, 27 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: we bought a game. Now they gotta go get game 28 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: four because down three to one, you see what happens 29 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: down three to one coming back from that. Oh, it's fine, 30 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: but they bought they they bought a day, they bought 31 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:38,279 Speaker 1: a game. 32 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 2: And I'm happy, but I'm not. 33 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: Sitting here with choke gestures with the Pacers blown at 34 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: twenty points. 35 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 2: I will save that if we win the series. But 36 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: I'm not. 37 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: It's they bought a game. They bought a game, they 38 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: bought a day. It's okay, great, you you found a 39 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: way back in a game that made absolutely no sense. 40 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 2: It made no sense. The Knicks won this game. Karl 41 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: Anthony Towns has. 42 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: Four points through three quarters and then he just hits 43 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: for twenty in the fourth, like Brunson. 44 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: Doesn't have a big How did they win there? This game? 45 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: This series makes absolutely no sense. So okay, but that's 46 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 1: a I'm okay, I'm not insane. I mean that was 47 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: insane Jayson Knicks fan. But but now I'm like, okay, 48 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: you know what, we're right on the edge right now. 49 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: Things things aren't going as we thought. But that's basically 50 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: what the Knicks did. They bought a game, and now 51 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: it's all about game four because really you could say, well, 52 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: they won the one, Yeah they could go home. No, 53 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: you don't go home to win three game. You don't 54 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 1: go home and then leave it and come back. Oh yeah, 55 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: we'll just hit fast forward on the button to win 56 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: three games. Doesn't happen that way, doesn't it? 57 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 3: How you go back Game one obviously one that was sol. 58 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: Sol ripping. We don't need to talk about it anymore, 59 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: all of that, but talk about it. 60 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 3: No Game two, close game, you talk about that psychologically 61 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 3: jarring at times, Karl Anthony Towns was either wearing a 62 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 3: cloak of invisibility or he was John Cena and you 63 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 3: didn't see it. Game three for a good chunk of that, 64 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 3: he didn't. We saw shamit check in and a lot 65 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 3: of folks looking around going, Okay, Tibbs has truly lost 66 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 3: his mind. Now the synapses aren't firing, and we got 67 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 3: some craziness because now the guys are getting extra minutes. 68 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 3: Well you get eleven from him, thirteen from right Josh Hart, 69 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 3: who more or less benched himself in all of his comments. 70 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: Between game two and Game three, he comes through with 71 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 3: some of the biggest rebounds where suddenly he's playing like 72 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: he's eight feet tall on stilts. Yeah, rebound after rebound 73 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 3: and big play. And for Karl Anthony Town it's like 74 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 3: someone activated, you hit the switch on the back. Just 75 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 3: be good, Like, how did you as bad? You know, 76 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 3: kind of a thing. I don't know. 77 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: I got four points in the first three quart and 78 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: all of a sudden taking the heat check threes in 79 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. 80 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: I'm saying, how the hell. 81 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 3: Did There's like nine memes of him that came out 82 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 3: of that fourth quarter, some of the passes, some of 83 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 3: the hey look at the words that he's mouthing here 84 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 3: as he's running up and down the court. He got 85 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 3: called for that insane travel. 86 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: And I don't know that I've ever agreed with an 87 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: announcer more than listening to Stanban Gunny just incredilously gone. 88 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: So that was called here? 89 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 3: Why? Yeah, Like on several foul calls like yep, I'm 90 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 3: with you here, Stan, but all. 91 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 1: Don't try to break this series down because it doesn't 92 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: make any It doesn't make it make sense. 93 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 3: Kalen Brunson sitting on the bench and suddenly there's some 94 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 3: activity and the Knicks are playing better basketball comes back in, 95 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 3: helps to finish things off. Six of eighteen from the field. 96 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 3: They're gonna need a better version of him, and he 97 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 3: and Kat are gonna have to figure out what their 98 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 3: problems are. But you bought a day. You bought a 99 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 3: couple of days. And look, the first two games, as 100 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 3: much as they may have been jarring, were close games, right, 101 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 3: gave one away? Okay, fine, you rally, you took one back. 102 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 4: What was it? 103 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: The New York Posts back page was chokes on them. 104 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 2: It's pretty good. 105 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 3: I mean, that's pretty clever. I like that with the 106 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 3: giant picture of cat screaming and losing his mind, which 107 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 3: is great. But now we get back for game four 108 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 3: and let's see what other magic tips can find in 109 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 3: terms of lineup switches and juice that you can get. 110 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 3: McBride gave them a couple of big shots. He also 111 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 3: tried to shoot them out of the game. A couple 112 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 3: of times. Don't try to make the day. 113 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: It makes no sense, It makes absolutely no Shallow May 114 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: showed up, shout May, shouta May. 115 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 5: What you got, Frostburg, I totally that went in a 116 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 5: different direction than I thought it would be. 117 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: What what direction?

You can do that 191 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: when you're playing teams that you have an advantage against 192 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: that are playing well, but a team like Oklahoma City, 193 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: you can't have your best player not show up for 194 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: two of the six or whatever it's going to be. 195 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: And tonight and Edwards in the first half took two shots. 196 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: Man two shots and Edwards two shots, four points in 197 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: the first half of this game.

All of those things are 233 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,079 Speaker 3: fine and exciting, but you need to have a stamp 234 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 3: on this game, right. You can't say, hey, look what 235 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 3: Kat did last night, and I'm gonna do that, but 236 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 3: you know, we'll hang around and then all of a sudden, 237 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 3: I'll have this offensive explosion because. 238 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 2: Guess what, it may not come. 239 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 3: And you're also not a big guy that can go 240 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 3: in and impose your will down low and and force contact, 241 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 3: work through contact and make things happen. For Edwards to 242 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 3: be this passive, it's maddening.

And I would not rip 259 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: Aunt Edwards if his first half was he had four 260 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: points and he was two for twelve from the floor shot. 261 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: You know us, you're the superstar, you're support, You're trying. 262 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 1: He's trying to get into the game.

This 264 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: is where it happens for Shay Gilders Alexander. 265 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 2: What does he do. 266 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to the free throw line because it's 267 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: what I do and this is how I'm going to 268 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,080 Speaker 1: affect the game. I'm gonna slow it down for me. 269 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: If I'm not hitting, I'm gonna play make a little more, 270 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna continue to be the score of my teens. 271 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to the line because that's how that's 272 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: how you do it when your SHOT's not falling. This 273 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: is Ann Edwards like like there's there's possessions on offense 274 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: where I go, where the hell is he?

They always find a way to affect the game. 287 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: And and Edwards had a couple of games in a series 288 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: where Boy really needed more. Boy really needed more, And 289 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: usually those are l's and that's why you wind up 290 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: losing the series. Now again, they're lucky it's this close 291 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 1: because you are getting a big effort from your bench 292 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: and and the threes are falling for the most part. 293 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: But still did I mean, you gotta have this game. 294 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: You gotta have this game.

We have to do a bunch of things. 303 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: We have to So you know, they're reeling looking for 304 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: an answer because they thought we're gonna come in and 305 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 1: roll over though that's what we've done the first two games. 306 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: This way, you come out again, we make sure no 307 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: no hope for you, and we are gonna send you 308 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: back now if your shots aren't falling again, that's one thing, 309 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: but there's one thing of trying to get in the 310 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: game and not doing it and then just just hanging 311 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: out say yeah, I'm good you guys shoot I'm okay. 312 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 3: But again, most of that first half they shot very well. 313 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 3: I mean there was a point where it was, hey, 314 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 3: we're at sixty five percent, but we turned the ball 315 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 3: over ten times, and so you have a deficit you're 316 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 3: looking at.

I tasted the milk. 322 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 2: It was sour. 323 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, we could see a huge streak coming to an 324 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 1: a because my Carolina Hurricanes up to nine over the 325 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: Panthers shock with thirteen minutes left, they could break that 326 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: fifteen game Eastern Conference Final losing street thirteen minutes.

Now, 412 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 1: first things first, are things really not going to work 413 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: out with Aaron Rodgers? 414 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:10,679 Speaker 2: And we're going to be talking about this. 415 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 4: He's a weirdo, so you know, I mean, like, he 416 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 4: sure it could go through. He's sure he could completely 417 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 4: change his mind down the road. Sure he could decide 418 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 4: he wants to hold out for something different or I 419 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 4: don't know, sexy, or something closer to a rainforest or 420 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 4: a jungle or something like that, you know, where he 421 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 4: can get all the get all the medicine man stuff 422 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 4: he needs. I mean, I don't know how you could 423 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 4: feel good about any sort of business arrangement with him. 424 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 4: And yeah, I mean, look, the Falcons, we talked about 425 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 4: this in the past. The Falcons have to get real 426 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 4: about Kirk Cousins and what they're doing. And it's a 427 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 4: salary dumping out a football trade, and that owner to 428 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 4: this point has been unwilling to eat what he'd have 429 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 4: to eat to get back real assets. So he's trying 430 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 4: to have his cake and eat it too. He's saying, 431 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,680 Speaker 4: I want some mine to take all this off my hands, 432 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 4: and I want, you know, I want to get back 433 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 4: what you know, what is commensurate with the contract that 434 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 4: we take Kirk Cousins and people are trying to tell 435 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 4: him that that that's dead money, that that you're not 436 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 4: going to get that. And you know, Sam Donald didn't 437 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 4: get what he thought he was going to get, and 438 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 4: Matt Stafford didn't get what he thought he was going 439 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 4: to get, and you know Field probably didn't get you know, 440 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 4: it was kind of did Okay, Russ definitely didn't get 441 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 4: what Russ thought he was going to get. Aaron Rodgers 442 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 4: is not going to get any close to what Aaron 443 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:36,199 Speaker 4: Rodgers got. And Cousins is more in that you know, 444 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 4: sort of bin of quarterbacks than he is the Purties, 445 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 4: you know, and those guys who didn't get what they want. 446 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 4: So it's an ownership deal. I mean, they could have 447 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,919 Speaker 4: traded him before the draft. They should have traded him 448 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 4: before the draft. But the owner won't eat salary. 449 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: But I gotta I gotta think, though, Jay, that as 450 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 1: time goes on and Cousins is around the team, right 451 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: because now we've had time, Yeah, well we ten our 452 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: time when around the team and they realize, oh this 453 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: really isn't going to work, that's what's going to happen. 454 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: But I think what's killing them now is that, well 455 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: we're still in the off season, where were you know, 456 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: mini camps over waiting for the camp to start. But 457 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 1: once that happens, it's, oh man, where we can't we 458 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 1: can't go forward like this. 459 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 2: This is a real big distract. This is bad for 460 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 2: the team. 461 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 4: Well it's just silly, But I mean, it shouldn't takes 462 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 4: that having to happen for them to be realist about 463 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 4: the situation, you know, Like I I I just think 464 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 4: they've looked, they've been buffoon's about the quarterback position really 465 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 4: since Matt Ryan started going downhill, and now this Penix 466 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 4: thing might have you know, might have bailed them out. 467 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 4: We could also add, you know, they didn't need Psycher 468 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 4: cousins to draft pedic clear that it was obviously a 469 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 4: little weird that owner can't get it right at quarterback. 470 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 4: He gave you know, Matt Ryan one more extension than 471 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 4: he had to, and it's been crazy since then, you know. 472 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 4: I mean, these are the same people that didn't want 473 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 4: to make a phone call to Lamar Jackson because they 474 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 4: had Desert Rider. That's a fact. So yeah, I don't 475 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 4: know how to handicap that because you know, it's when 476 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 4: it's a billionaire who doesn't want to cut out, you know, 477 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 4: five six, seven, eight million dollars off of a contract 478 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 4: to trade it. It's kind of like you're not pregnant 479 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 4: until you are. And the fact that they would need 480 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 4: to see the dysfunction in their quarterback room with their 481 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 4: own eyes to know it exists also seems silly and 482 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 4: myopic to me and shortsighted. But you look, I don't 483 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 4: think he's gonna be there week one, whether that's traded 484 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 4: in the next two weeks to Pittsburgh, or traded right 485 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 4: on the eve of training camp, or traded when somebody 486 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 4: gets hurt somewhere in training camp. It would seem kind 487 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 4: of silly to have that dynamic with the backup making 488 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 4: twenty times more than the starter sitting on the bench 489 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 4: waiting to see if the kid sails. That just doesn't 490 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 4: seem to make a lot of sense. 491 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: Took me a second to recover from the Desmond Ritter 492 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 1: reference there, Jason. 493 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 2: It took me.
