Right now. 16 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 3: We got a little little or dervs ride, a little salad, 17 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 3: little preseason action to tide us over, But the real 18 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 3: stuff is right around the corner, my friend. That's a 19 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 3: beautiful thing. 20 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 4: I was thinking yesterday about how much fun I had 21 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 4: watching football this week and how we won't get it 22 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 4: I think until Saturday. Again. I don't think there's any 23 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 4: weekday games in the preseason this week, and so it 24 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 4: made me really sad. I very much enjoyed, Like yesterday, 25 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 4: I wasn't watching the games hardcore, especially the second game. 26 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 4: I just was watching the end of the golf yesterday 27 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 4: and watching baseball and cooking dinner like it just on 28 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 4: the background. I had baseball on my iPad and flipping 29 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 4: back between the end of the FedEx Jude Championship with 30 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 4: Tommy Fleetwood again just can't get home. The poor guy 31 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 4: can't win a tournament. But it was nice to just 32 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 4: be like, oh, you know what, I'm gonna listen to 33 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter of a football game while I make dinner. 34 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 4: That was just very enjoyable. 35 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's very cool. And it's funny too, because I 36 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 3: felt like that too. The NFL did a very good 37 00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 3: job of spacing the preseason games out. Yes, they're like, hey, 38 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 3: here's a couple on Thursday, here's a couple of Friday, 39 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 3: here's a bunch on Saturday, here's two more on Sunday. 40 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 3: And by the time the Sunday games rolled around, the 41 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 3: last one was the Saints at the Chargers. And even 42 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 3: though Tyler Shuck, who's the second round pick. He could 43 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 3: be a week one starter for the Saints. There's just 44 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 3: no juice, you know what I mean. 45 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's also the stadium. They're playing in a dead 46 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 4: stadium in Los Angeles. 47 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's part of it too, But man, I mean 48 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 3: you compare it to Shador Sanders. Chadour is the guy 49 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 3: that is the limelight guy right now. He's the lightning 50 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 3: rod for opinions to be shared far and wide, and 51 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 3: he had a really good debut. It's funny. We talked 52 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 3: about this a little bit yesterday on Countdown Jeff, But 53 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: if you look at Shadoor Sanders and pretty much anybody 54 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 3: else in the draft, Tyler Shock second round pick might 55 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 3: be a week one starter. Cam Ward number one overall 56 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 3: pick going to be a week one starter, and they're 57 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 3: like the oh, by the way stories Compared to Shaduur Sanders, 58 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 3: we all know falls to the fifth round, but he 59 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 3: started the first preseason game, played really well, and it's 60 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 3: just been opinion city all things should Doure Sanders and 61 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 3: every other rookie quarterback is like, you know, page page B, 62 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 3: page D whatever type news in comparison, it's wild. 63 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 4: Well, think think about this that Shadur Sanders and the 64 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 4: Browns were playing at the same time as cam Ward 65 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 4: was playing, right, Yeah, and what game was the national 66 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 4: television game? 67 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 3: It's the Browns. 68 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 4: The Browns game was. 69 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, number the. 70 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 4: Number one pick in the draft, Kim wore I think 71 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 4: he's the least talked about number one pick we've ever 72 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 4: seen in our lifetime. I don't think there's even a 73 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 4: close second. Yeah, he's picked first overall. Now, part of 74 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 4: it is where he went. I mean, the Titans are 75 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 4: not a popular team in America. I'd argue like this 76 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 4: just at the South in general, like that division is 77 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 4: just not a popular division for us to talk about 78 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 4: in our in just the lexicon in the NFL. But 79 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 4: it's still kind of crazy. He was the first pick 80 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,839 Speaker 4: in the draft and Shadur was in the fifth round, 81 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 4: and I get the storyline of Shadur is a lot 82 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,679 Speaker 4: different and that's why he is looked upon that. Plus 83 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 4: he was playing, and it was right they build him 84 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 4: playing most of the game and he did. So, you know, 85 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 4: Kim Warden, I think played just two drives. He looked 86 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 4: better I think on the first drive to mean the 87 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 4: second drive than the first drive. So you know there 88 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 4: was some improvement there, but it just he he is 89 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 4: one of those guys in Sanders that it's just much 90 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 4: must watch television for right now. 91 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's the wild thing is if Shadure was 92 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 3: drafted by the Titans, they would be talked about like crazy. Still, yeah, 93 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,479 Speaker 3: I agree with you. I'm not disagreeing with you. The 94 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 3: Titans they just don't get a whole lot of national love. 95 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 3: They're not one of those, you know, go to type teams. 96 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 3: But man if Shadur went there, they all of a sudden, 97 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. And the Browns. We don't 98 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 3: just talk about the Browns left and right nationally either, 99 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 3: but we do now because of Chaudeur. And it was 100 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 3: a good debut, right. His stats, if you're into that 101 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 3: sort of thing, fourteen for twenty three for one hundred 102 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 3: and thirty eight yards, two touchdown passes, also had four 103 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 3: rushes for nineteen yards. And look, I thought there was 104 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 3: a tweet from Lebron that I actually agreed with Jeff 105 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 3: where he essentially said, I'm paraphrasing He's like, and don't 106 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 3: give me that it's just preseason type stuff, because if 107 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 3: he's stunk it up, everybody would make a big deal 108 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 3: out of it, and there's some truth to that, and 109 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 3: I think for Shadeur in particular, there's a lot more 110 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 3: pressure on him than most quarterbacks making their first start 111 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 3: in the preseason because he knows as well as anybody 112 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 3: that we're looking at every single throw and all the 113 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 3: critics are just waiting to pounce on any mistake. And 114 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 3: he played pretty well. You got to give him his 115 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 3: flowers for that first preseason start. 116 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 4: Okay, so let's talk about the preseason and I'll get 117 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 4: to Sanders all tying together, Brian, Okay, yeah, so the preseason. 118 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 4: I know it's not a judged like this by everyone, 119 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 4: but I could just talk about myself, Okay, the way 120 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 4: I look at the preseason, and I'm not someone you 121 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 4: work with me for a while now, I'm not someone 122 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,919 Speaker 4: that gets very high or very low in either direction. 123 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 4: It's not my personality. I'm just I'm not I'm not 124 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 4: gonna overreact. I'm not gonna, you know, throw out things 125 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,039 Speaker 4: that I don't believe because look, this started with the 126 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 4: discourse was so gross, right, it was the Browns are 127 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 4: setting up standards to fail by playing him, and it 128 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 4: was very lazy and this is where the analysis starts. Right, 129 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 4: it was lazy because they they the people on TV 130 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 4: that wanted this to be this this he was said 131 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 4: to fail, like they expect him to play poorly. Right, 132 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 4: they expected him to play poorly. They're just funny that 133 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 4: the people that support him the most expect him to 134 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 4: play poorly and then in order to get in front 135 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 4: of that to the Browns were sabotaging him because they 136 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 4: weren't They weren't giving him enough practice reps, so they 137 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 4: weren't doing it the right way. Guys, the preseason, this 138 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 4: is the way the preseason works. You have a depth chart. 139 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 4: You play according to the depth chart. When someone's out, 140 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 4: the next person plays. Standers was the next person up 141 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 4: to play. Joe Flacco was too old to play, Kenny 142 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 4: Pickett and Dylan Gabriel were too beat up, I guess 143 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 4: to play. But I'll tell you what. Gabriel has been practicing. 144 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 4: I'm sure he wish you would have played, because now 145 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 4: he's probably getting passing in the depth chart, right and 146 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 4: Sanders now Hopson Sanders have been practicing with the group 147 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 4: of players he was playing with. Sanators didn't get first 148 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 4: team reps. Why would he He's not the starting quarterback, Brian, 149 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 4: he's the backup. Of course he gets backup reps right now, Well, 150 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 4: he was play have earned him the opportunity for more 151 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 4: reps with the Ones, probably, and we don't know that 152 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 4: until we see practice today, right. So it starts in 153 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 4: a place of like of laziness and and and being 154 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 4: disingenuous with those takes, because guess what, the same people 155 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 4: that have those takes were the same people that were 156 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 4: so effusive with their praise, like they didn't say earlier 157 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 4: he was gonna suck right like it's it's just it's 158 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 4: all for show. Okay. I don't operate like that. Okay, 159 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 4: So the way I look at is this is my 160 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 4: my standard is this does it look like it should? 161 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 4: So let me explain what it comes to, just the 162 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 4: easy way to explain this, and they'll get the sanders 163 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 4: in a second. So the Cincinnati Bengals, their first team, 164 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 4: played two drives against the Eagles backups. Okay, their offense, 165 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 4: the Bengals offense went boom boom, boom boom boom down 166 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 4: the field, two touchdowns. Check the check the box looks 167 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 4: like it should, so it should it? 168 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: Right? 169 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 4: The Ones are playing the twos that should happen. On 170 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 4: the flip side, the Bengals defense got gashed by the 171 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 4: Eagles backup offense. Red flag is up? Right? Why is 172 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 4: that happening again? So if you play that center all 173 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 4: through the NFL during this week, you know yesterday your Dolphins, 174 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 4: some your Dolphins, you're the first string offensive line got 175 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,719 Speaker 4: stuffed multiple times on the goal line. That is a 176 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 4: red flag that should not happen against the Bears backups 177 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 4: like that to me is so doesn't look like it should. Right. 178 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 4: If it does, you just check the box and you 179 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 4: move it along. Sanders is a fifth round pick, okay, 180 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 4: who we know is more talented than a fifth round pick. 181 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 4: He was playing with backups against mostly backups, the Pantas 182 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 4: Brothers starters, some Seluck stars a little bit, and he 183 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 4: looked like a player who we already know is better 184 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 4: than the folks he's playing with, and they played that way, 185 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 4: so it looked like it should in my mind, that's 186 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 4: what it should look like for a player that we 187 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 4: all think he'd be a starting quarterback but fell for 188 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 4: reasons that maybe outside of actual football in the field. 189 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 4: So that's his performance was just that it was a 190 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 4: box check for week one. Now in week two, I 191 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 4: don't even know they're playing. Maybe he gets reps with 192 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 4: the ones, or maybe gets reps with you know, against 193 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 4: the one defense the entire for entire multiple drives in 194 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 4: a row. Then we'll judge him off that. But the 195 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 4: same people that got on on on TV on the 196 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 4: radio and told us that he was being screwed by 197 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 4: the Browns were the same people who got up there 198 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 4: and praise his performance, even though that they really were 199 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 4: admitting early on that they thought he would fail. So like, 200 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 4: I just I'm just tired of, like, well, seeing of 201 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 4: these people that are using his situation, which by the way, 202 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 4: is no different than any other fifth round pick. Yeah, 203 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 4: that happened. I saw people you know, well he's a 204 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 4: fifth round pick. Yeah he was. That's over with now. 205 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 4: Now now it's time to judge him based on his 206 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 4: performance on the field. 207 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 3: Well, they're at Philly next week in the preseason, so. 208 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, Philly won't play their starters, but Philly does a 209 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,959 Speaker 4: good job of just being ready to play these preseason games. 210 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, So we'll see if Chadur will definitely get 211 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 3: playing time. We'll see, you know, if he's the starter again. 212 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 3: How they're gonna divide everything up. That's my whole thing 213 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 3: with the being set up to fail. It's all how 214 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 3: you say things, and that's just too much. That's overkill. 215 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 3: If you said something like, hey man, he's in a 216 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 3: rough spot. He's not getting a ton of reps. This 217 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 3: is not ideal. Okay, that's fine, but when you take 218 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 3: it to the he's being set up to fail. That's 219 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 3: what RG three tweeted last week, Shaduur Sanders is being 220 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 3: set up to fail in Cleveland, all right. Stephen A. 221 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 3: Smith said that on first take, Sanders is being set 222 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 3: up to fail. Lewis Riddick didn't exactly say that and 223 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 3: actually clarified it the morning of that preseason game on Friday. 224 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 3: Jeff his comments on Get Up where Chaduur is skating 225 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,199 Speaker 3: uphill right, and he talked about not getting a ton 226 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 3: of reps. 227 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 4: But it's so the problem with this is Lewis knows better, 228 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 4: Like out of all people like Stephen A. Whatever, man, 229 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 4: he's gonna have a Lewis knows better he wasn't getting. 230 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 4: He was getting the same amount of reps everyone else 231 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 4: was getting. And Lewis knows that. He knows how practice goes. 232 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 4: Sanders was getting the same amount of reps as everyone 233 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 4: else in that quarterback room. He wasn't getting less reps. 234 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 4: And then they decided, like, you haven't been practicing at all, 235 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 4: go play. He was getting the same amount of reps 236 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 4: everyone else was getting because that's the way practice works 237 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 4: in the preseason. Well, they frustrates me. It's just nonsense, Like, yeah, 238 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 4: the people that know how this works are the ones 239 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 4: that are just saying that the nonsense stuff just to 240 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 4: make headlines. 241 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 3: Right, Well, that's the thing of if you really break down, 242 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 3: he's being set up to fail that it never made 243 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 3: any sense whatsoever. Is if Cleveland is gonna be happy 244 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 3: if he fails, what are they gained by that? What 245 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 3: do they gain by him failing? They gain absolutely nothing. 246 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 3: Do you think that after Shadur played very well all 247 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 3: things considered against the Panthers, do you think that the 248 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 3: Browns like quietly were like, ah, horrid, man, we're hoping 249 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 3: that he failed, Like they're upset that he played well. 250 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 3: It makes no sense at all when you really break 251 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 3: it down. It was just it was a silly take. 252 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,839 Speaker 3: And I also think this, I get that there were 253 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 3: a lack of reps. I understand. I understand your point too, Jeff, 254 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 3: where you're saying they're being you know, split up among 255 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 3: all these other dudes. But yeah, there was a lack 256 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 3: of reps. But that's not the only thing to consider. 257 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 3: Let's not make the Panthers backup defense out to be 258 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 3: like the eighty. 259 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 4: Inga of reps with When you say lack of reps, 260 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 4: what do you mean lack of reps. 261 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 3: Like lack of first team reps. Not out there with 262 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 3: the first team. 263 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 4: But the first team didn't play. 264 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 3: Okay, fine, but he's still not out there with the 265 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 3: first team. 266 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 4: And because he's the fifth, because he's the four string quarterback. 267 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 3: How many how many teams have five dudes splitting reps 268 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 3: at quarterback? How many teams? They're probably the only team 269 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 3: that has that matter, has four quarterbacks five They there too. 270 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 4: It's not humbly because everyone was hurt. They'll release only 271 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 4: at some point because I only pick it's practicing, right, 272 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 4: he's he's been out. No, Sanders is getting the amount 273 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 4: of reps he should in the preseason in practice. People 274 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 4: are upset because it's not with the first team. Well, 275 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,439 Speaker 4: of course not, he's not the starting quarterback. The starting 276 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 4: quarterback is Joe Flacco. That's what Joe Flacco gets first 277 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 4: team reps. He's the starting quarterback. Like, it's not I 278 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 4: don't get this discussion about lack of reps. It's the 279 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 4: Browns are doing exactly what everyone else does in a 280 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 4: quarterback competition. They're giving everyone reps to you know, you know, 281 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 4: equal to what position on the depth chart they are. 282 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I I just I don't. I don't see. 283 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 3: And that's the thing, Like there was a practice. I'd 284 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,199 Speaker 3: have to get the screenshot. Now, all five of these 285 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 3: dudes split up reps. They posted their stats like it's 286 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 3: a regular season game. 287 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 4: And I agree that it's it's insane that they have 288 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 4: five quarterbacks in the roster. Like I will agree with that, 289 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 4: Like that's not that's not giving enough reps to everyone. 290 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 4: But Santa's just getting the reps. 291 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 3: Here we go, Here you go, here you go, here 292 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 3: you go. So it's August sixth, So what last Wednesday? 293 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 3: I think, Okay, this is ridiculous, but we're really breaking 294 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 3: it down here. So here's the attempts and completions per 295 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 3: quarterback Flacco on this training camp practice last Wednesday. Flaco 296 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 3: eight for thirteen, Sanders four for seven, Picket five for seven, 297 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 3: Gabriel said, and for eight, Huntly two for five. What 298 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 3: other team has five other dudes getting reps in practice 299 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 3: and point them out to me. I'd love to hear it. 300 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 4: So, so if we want to talk about their quarterback 301 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 4: competition and how many and how still it is, I'm 302 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 4: absolutely for that discussion. But he's not getting any less 303 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 4: reps than Gabriel is. And here's the thing. I think 304 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 4: we all agree that he's better than doing Gabriel. I 305 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 4: certainly think he might be doing Gabriel. Yeah, but he 306 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 4: was drafted in in you know, he was drafted in 307 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 4: in the UH in the third round, and sans A 308 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 4: drafted in the fifth round. Like, you can't just give 309 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 4: reps to standards ahead of Gabriel, now, I would argue 310 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 4: you can. Now after what happened like like like I like, 311 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 4: I think Gabriel probably feels like, shoot, I probably trut 312 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 4: have tried to play because he's you know, he might 313 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 4: he might lose that job pretty quickly as a backup 314 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 4: quarterback after what happened, you know, in in the game 315 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 4: on Friday night. So but they're they're getting he's getting 316 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 4: the reps he should be getting now this week. I'm 317 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 4: very curious to see him where he is in the 318 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 4: depth chart. It would be probably not fair to Gabriel 319 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 4: to change the depth chart very much because he hasn't 320 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 4: a chance to play yet. But that's sort of the NFL, though, 321 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 4: like you get hurt. Like there's interesting is you know, 322 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 4: the common is a common thing where people say, like, well, 323 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 4: you can't lose your job injury. Oh no, you can. 324 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 4: You can always use your job injury. But so I 325 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 4: think that that maybe, you know, he might lose some 326 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 4: reps to that because of how well you know, Sanders played, 327 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 4: But I would think probably not yet, but Gabriel. If 328 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 4: Gabriel does not play well against the Eagles, like that's it, 329 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 4: this is over for backup quarter. But I've said all along, 330 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 4: I think I'm still going to be right on this. 331 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 4: You know, there's a competition between Flacco and Kenny Pickett. 332 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 4: The winner is the starter and the loser will be released, 333 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 4: which we can he pick it. And there's obviously a 334 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 4: competition between Gabriel and Standards to see who the backup 335 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 4: is going to be. And I think I think Standard 336 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 4: we'll win that job. I just think Santa it's better 337 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 4: than Gabriel. I mean, he's my guy at Oregon, but 338 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 4: I just think Sanders is better. 339 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 3: All Right, we're off and running.

So there you go it. Hap Baseball 390 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 3: is so weird. Sometimes there are these teams. Obviously, the 391 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 3: Mets are gonna win at some point again, but while 392 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 3: they're in this funk, they're a team. Whatever they do, 393 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 3: they cannot win for a period of time. And that's 394 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 3: where the Mets are right now. 395 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 2: Man. 396 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 3: They cannot get it done. 397 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: Just can't. 398 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 3: Travis Hunter, I'm curious what your thoughts are on Travis Hunter. So, 399 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 3: the two way player for the Jaguars number two overall pick, 400 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 3: played both ways in the preseason game against the Steelers. 401 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 3: He had ten snaps on offense eight snaps on defense. 402 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 3: What do you see this season for Travis Hunter, Like 403 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 3: in terms of I'm gonna use a dirty word here. 404 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 3: It's gets you all crazy. Reps, Jeff, You're like, you're like, 405 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 3: foe your dog off the leash when I say reps here. 406 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 3: But I'm curious what type of workload do you see 407 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 3: from Travis Hunter as the season progressive progresses? How do 408 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 3: they break it down offensively and defensively? In your mind? 409 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 4: Oh? Man, I jeez, do you watch you watch that 410 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 4: game in all the Day the Jaguars steel? Yeah, yeah, 411 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 4: you's tired. He looked playing both sides of the way. 412 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 4: He was breathing heavy. He was like, it's just a 413 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 4: lot of work, man, Yeah, to do both. I would 414 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 4: you rather have Travis Hunter be the best at one 415 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 4: position and then maybe play a little bit of the 416 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 4: other present or haven't be like just good at two positions? Like, 417 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 4: there's just not an you just there's a reason why 418 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 4: this hasn't been done at the level they're trying to 419 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 4: do before NFL history, And of course you know, new talent, 420 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 4: new players can change the way you do things, but 421 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 4: there's a reason why it has not been done before. 422 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 4: It is physically taxing to play one position at a 423 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 4: high level. Let alone two positions at a high level. 424 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 4: And when you when you end up trying to do this, 425 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 4: I think you minimize the ability for him to be 426 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 4: good at at one position. Right, he can be a 427 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 4: great corner or great wide receiver, in my opinion, he 428 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 4: can't be great at both. And is it worth making 429 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 4: him less good essentially at two positions to have him 430 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 4: play both? He is he easy? That is he that 431 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 4: important of a player for you to have to play both. 432 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 4: The easiest way is always to have him be a 433 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 4: full time corner and then fill in an offense as 434 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 4: he did. The other way around is ridiculous to me. 435 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 4: And if I was an offensive coach playing against him 436 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 4: and I saw him come on defense after he played offense, 437 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 4: gets where the ball is going? 438 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:29,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, right to him? 439 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 4: Right, Guess what I'm doing. I'm sending the off I'm 440 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 4: running a screen pass, and I'm sending the offensive lineman 441 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 4: out to go block him. 442 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 3: Well, that's yeah, It's kind of leeds into your point. 443 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 6: Right. 444 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 3: Here is DeVante Adams new Rams receiver. He was on 445 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 3: the Pivot podcast and I thought it was interesting the 446 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 3: way he put it as well. And again, this is 447 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 3: not like hating on the guy, it's not right, like 448 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 3: we're not saying what he can't do, or he's just 449 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 3: being realistic about how taxing it would be to play 450 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 3: both ways at as close to a full time basis 451 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,679 Speaker 3: as possible. Here's Fonte Adams. 452 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,880 Speaker 7: I don't even think it's possible to do for real, 453 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 7: not at a high level and then going there. It's 454 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 7: hard enough to go cover a punt and then and 455 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 7: then be on you. 456 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 4: Know one side, you know, and I didn't. I haven't 457 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 4: done it. 458 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 7: I'm not acting like I'm gonna kick off or punt, 459 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 7: but I can see the dudes, and I know you 460 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 7: know you you got your guys, and you see the 461 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 7: yardage of my yardage over the over the game versus 462 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 7: somebody that starts on the offense and then plays special 463 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 7: teams as well, Like, that's just a lot of mileage, man, 464 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 7: And I don't know how long. I'm not even concerned 465 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 7: so much if he can do it over the course 466 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 7: of a game or a season. It's more like how 467 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 7: long is his career gonna be if he's playing that 468 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 7: many snaps, because you just all you're doing is doubling 469 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 7: your risk for injury one, And I don't wish any 470 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 7: of that on him. I hope that he can play 471 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 7: an injury free season and go ball out, but I 472 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 7: mean it's just the reality. The more you're on the field, Yeah, 473 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 7: I mean, it's already one hundred percent injury guarantee. You know, 474 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 7: once you get out there playing both sides and now 475 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 7: you gotta tackle, you gotta you gotta tackle Derrick Henry 476 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 7: with that frame. 477 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 3: Right Like that's that's asking a ton, Jeff, and I 478 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 3: hadn't thought about it until this morning, really, but I 479 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 3: think I think he's gonna be an asset. I think 480 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 3: Travis Hunter is a very talented special player, but this 481 00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 3: does like class half empty. This lends itself to the 482 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 3: Jags not finding a rhythm. Like think about if they 483 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna start him out on offense primarily, 484 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 3: that's what they're gonna try to do. They're gonna try 485 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 3: to get Trevor Lawrence, you know, another weapon and get 486 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 3: him really jump started. And I think they're gonna find, 487 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 3: like you know, it's probably better, like you just said, 488 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 3: to have him as a full time corner and sort 489 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 3: of moonlight as an offensive guy. So if he starts 490 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 3: off being a starter on offense, I always listed on 491 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 3: the depth chart. If he starts off being a starter 492 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 3: offensively and then they sort of flip that around and 493 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 3: he's a starter defensively and gets a little bit of 494 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 3: time on offense. That lends itself to the offense being like, okay, 495 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 3: you don't have Trevor Travis Hunter anymore now now to 496 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 3: who you know what I mean, Like it could be 497 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 3: a little bit funky to find out his exact role 498 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 3: in all the moving parts around that. 499 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just physically don't know how he can do 500 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 4: both and then mentally, right, so you know, in college, 501 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,719 Speaker 4: we really dig down to what he did in college, 502 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 4: he played man coverage on defense, and he basically lined 503 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 4: up on one side of the field on offense for 504 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 4: a game. Right, it just sort of right. It never 505 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 4: motioned in doing it, just like lined up on one 506 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 4: side and just ran routes from that side, and it 507 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 4: was like a route tree was extensive. It wasn't a 508 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 4: route tree that was crazy. And defensive defensively, he's such 509 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 4: a good corner, you know, just just go out and 510 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 4: go to the guy in front of you, Right, It's 511 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 4: not very hard. That's not the way the NFL is. 512 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 4: So you know, these playbooks. Let's just say you have 513 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 4: a paper playbook still, okay, and everyone's on iPads now, 514 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 4: but you know, college playbook would be fifty pages and 515 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 4: NFL playbooks one hundre fifty pages, So he has to 516 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 4: learn both of those to play offense and defense to 517 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 4: like that again, Like that's why I think, just generally speaking, 518 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 4: it's just way too much for him to do, and 519 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 4: it's unfair to him to have to make him have 520 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 4: to do all this, and unfair to your your point, 521 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 4: unfair to the team and sort of how you prepare 522 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 4: each week to have him have to do this. So 523 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 4: I'm in agreement with basically everyone who's ever played who 524 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 4: has the same thoughts on this, Like it's not it's 525 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 4: not something that benefits everyone. It just it just doesn't. 526 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 4: So I'm curious how long this experiment lasts with him 527 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,239 Speaker 4: doing as much as possible and look and look, they 528 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 4: can still be trying to figure out the best path forward, 529 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 4: which is certainly fair to say, hey man, like we're 530 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 4: just using the preseason as we should for reps to 531 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 4: figure it out. But they gotta figure out pretty soon 532 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 4: because you know, I've got two preseason games left and 533 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 4: the record season starts, Brian, Like, it's not like it's 534 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 4: it's pretty much time to figure it out. 535 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're right here. It's crazy what he did at 536 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 3: Colorado last year. He averaged one hundred and thirteen point 537 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 3: nine snaps per game. Let's just credit fourteen. One hundred 538 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: and fourteen snaps per game is insanity. But this is 539 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:14,719 Speaker 3: the NFL. 540 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 4: You can't do the NFL. It would just ruin. He 541 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 4: would be ruined. His body would break down, he would 542 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 4: get hurt, he wouldn't be as efficient as you need 543 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,239 Speaker 4: him to be those in those big moments. That's why 544 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 4: I think again, like you just you want I think 545 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 4: to me, you want the best of him on one 546 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 4: side of the ball, and that does feel like the 547 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 4: best of him on one side of the ball is 548 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 4: going to end up being on offense. 549 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think sometimes, you know, we always talk about 550 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 3: Miami in September. Jacksonville isn't exactly you know, like Green 551 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 3: Bay or something like that. It's taxing on your body 552 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 3: to play like a one pm Eastern game. 553 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 4: Done it. I played a week one in Jacksonville before 554 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 4: one pm start. Very very warm, Brian, very warm. 555 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 3: Man, incredibly warm. How about his teammate, though, Cam Little. 556 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 3: Some wild and crazy stuff that happened over the weekend. 557 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 3: Cam Little hitting a seventy yard field goal. That is insanity, Jeff. 558 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 3: That would have been the record by four yards. Justin 559 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 3: Tucker has the official record, but just because this was 560 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 3: in preseason, it's not an official record. If it were 561 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 3: in the regular season, it would have beaten it by 562 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 3: four yards. And he had distance despair. I can't believe 563 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 3: he made that look so easy. He kicked it from 564 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 3: his own forty yard line. Didn't even look right. 565 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 4: Kicking has become too easy. It's not a gripe of 566 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 4: mind having the sport. I think to knowledge, it's become 567 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 4: too easy. It was never supposed to be this easy. 568 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 4: And I'm curious this year with the new kickoff rules 569 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 4: and the landing zone all this stuff. Like I do 570 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 4: think there's a chance that we just get more points 571 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 4: this year if you can start the ball to thirty five. 572 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 4: Now after a touchback or forty I think at the 573 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 4: ball like doesn't hit the ground or some or hits 574 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 4: the ground too early. I mean, you're you're twenty five, 575 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 4: twenty yards away from a fifty seven yard field goal, 576 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 4: which feels like nearly automatic. Now it's kind of crazy, 577 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 4: like that's where I've gotten to where that those those 578 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 4: type of you know, kicks feel like something that can 579 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 4: be easily. I do wonder if it changes the way 580 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 4: like you live wager end of games, Like you know, 581 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 4: the team is down three with fifty seconds left. If 582 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 4: they get the ball to thirty five, it's not very 583 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 4: hard to get to the fifty, I mean to forty 584 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 4: yard line to get a decent, decent chance at fifty 585 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 4: seven yard field goal. 586 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,959 Speaker 3: It wasn't that long ago that, say, like a fifty 587 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 3: five yard field goal was like whoa fifty five? And 588 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 3: if you got near sixty, we're talking like, man, you're 589 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 3: a couple of yards away from the record. You know, 590 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 3: that was like sixty yard field goal. For him to 591 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 3: hit his seventy yard field goal is crazy. Even the 592 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 3: Justin Tucker field goal, the record breaker. It hit the 593 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 3: crossbar and trickled over. 594 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 4: Right, and it was also inside in a dome like perfect. Yeah, 595 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 4: you know conditions. I mean, Jacksonville just could do enough 596 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 4: though unfortunately to actually like you know, cover the first half. 597 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 3: But that's what you're focused on. What a way to 598 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 3: win a bet? If he hit a seventy yarder. You're like, 599 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 3: all right, you're almost like, you know, rolling your eyes. 600 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 3: I just need him to hit a seventy yarder and 601 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 3: I can cash this bet. And he hit it, that 602 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 3: would have been a great way. 603 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 4: To win it. I never unfortunate that way. Never, it 604 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 4: never happens. 605 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's the way. It's the way you lose one, right, Like, 606 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 3: all right, I just have to dodge him hitting it. 607 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 3: He he just hit a seventy yarder. I can't believe. Yeah, 608 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 3: normally goes the other way. Uh, this will probably make 609 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 3: you feel old, Jeff. How about former Yankees closer Mariano Rivera. 610 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 3: He tore his achilles during the Yankees Old Timers Day 611 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 3: game on Saturday? That like, how did we get here? 612 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 5: Where? 613 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 3: Mariano Rivera, the greatest closer of all time? Exceptional athlete, 614 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 3: He's tearing his achilles during the Old Timers Day game? 615 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 3: How are we even here? 616 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 4: Man? 617 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 3: This is crazy. We got to suspend time for a second. 618 00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 3: It's going by too fast. 619 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 4: So does everyone Does everyone do old Timers games? 620 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 3: I don't believe so, I don't think so. 621 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 4: Who is that a thing that like Yankees fans want 622 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 4: to go to? Are they just show up to the 623 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 4: show Ye Stadium to watch that. I just didn't know 624 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 4: that was a thing that everyone does. 625 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, some do. Some check it out and you see 626 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 3: the former like Andy Pettitt was playing, Willie Randolph was playing. 627 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 4: I know, I know the play I'm talking about. Like 628 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 4: our fans there like. 629 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 3: Do they Yeah, That's what I'm saying. Like there's some 630 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 3: show up and they're like, oh I get to see 631 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: Andy Pettitt. The'll they'll show up and hang out for 632 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 3: a little bit. Sure. 633 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 4: Interesting. 634 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 3: It's not like, oh, drop everything you're doing like capacity crowd. 635 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 3: But it's just one of the fun things that they do. Yeah, 636 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 3: this is depending on your definition of fun. 637 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 4: You don't play basketball anymore. It's just like that if 638 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 4: I were myself again, my wife would divorce me. I 639 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 4: probably all the injuries in the NFL, and like I 640 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 4: would get so fat if I was. I had achilles 641 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 4: injury for you know, for you know, six months and 642 00:31:57,760 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 4: couldn't couldn't move it all. It's just this is not 643 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 4: worth it to me to do those type of things anymore. 644 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 4: So I feel bad for him because I mean he's 645 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 4: gonna it's not it's not a fun injury. I mean, 646 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 4: you're now you're not way bearing for months at a time, 647 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 4: and it's gonna be you're gonna be just kind of 648 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 4: sitting there and like doing nothing. So I feel bad 649 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 4: that it ended up being the case. He also before 650 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 4: he got hurt, he like ripped a double off. 651 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 3: But if they was on Andy Pettitt, Yeah, Yeah, he's 652 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 3: an awesome athlete. He is, and uh they thought a 653 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 3: lot of people would say he was the best outfielder 654 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 3: in the American League, Like he would just shag fly 655 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 3: balls and he's a tremendous athlete. He actually I think 656 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 3: he tore his a cl you know, shagging fly balls. Yeah, 657 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 3: before his final season. He had to come back from 658 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 3: a torn a cl before his final year because I 659 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 3: think he got hurt in Kansas City doing that. 660 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I very much have enjoyed this eachy row like 661 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 4: run he's on right now. Where Yeah, he obviously, you know, 662 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 4: made the Hall of Fame and he had a Mariner's 663 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 4: I don't inducted in the Hall of Fame. The Meris 664 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 4: Hall of Fame, but they aducted he got to like, 665 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 4: you know, go on the honored him on the field 666 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 4: the other day. Yeah, dude is funny man. 667 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 3: He's hilarious. 668 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 4: He is very funny. 669 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 3: And he was in full uniform throwing out the first pitch. 670 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 3: Did you see that? 671 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 4: I saw? Well, no, I saw the video of him 672 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 4: and Randy Johnson playing catch in the hallway. Oh wow, yeah, 673 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 4: in the clubhouse hallway. I mean, dude obviously loves baseball. 674 00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 4: I think I think his career is underappreciated. Like he 675 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 4: had three thousand American hits and like fifteen hundred hits 676 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 4: in the Japanese League. Like he had a crazy career 677 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 4: of success in both leagues and you know, obviously doesn't count, 678 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 4: but like he had more hits than Pete Rose, I believe, right, first. 679 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:44,719 Speaker 3: Year all together. 680 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, which is an insane thing to even like sort 681 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 4: of throw out there. Yeah, I had more hits and 682 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 4: Pete Rose. They don't always count, but like I just 683 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 4: did you know he was? He was MVP and Rookie 684 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 4: the Year in the same year he missed by a vote. 685 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 4: Obviously famous that year for rookie the year was yeah, 686 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 4: for rookie the year, he asked, you know, he obviously 687 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 4: missed Hall of Fame with one vote. They need to 688 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 4: make Hall of Fame votes public by the way, because 689 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 4: that person has to be shamed obviously. Sure, the way 690 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 4: Baseball does their voting, there's no excuse for him eachro 691 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 4: not to win, not to be any of these players. 692 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 4: Like the way they do their voting. You vote for, 693 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 4: you get a ballot, You get to vote for ten players. 694 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 4: How's Etro not one of the ten players you would 695 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 4: vote for. 696 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 3: That's crazy. 697 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 4: I'm that ballot. 698 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,320 Speaker 3: That's even worse, you know, it's even worse, you know, 699 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:32,400 Speaker 3: to not put him in the top ten. This was 700 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 3: real fast. This was his Hall of Fame induction speech. 701 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 3: This is just gold right here. And to the Miami Molltains. 702 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 6: When you guys colled to offer me a contract for 703 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 6: twenty fifteen, I have never heard all of your team. 704 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 3: Never heard of the Miami Marlins, you know. And then 705 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 3: he had, of course some very nice things to say 706 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 3: about the Miami Marlins. 707 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 4: Do you think he was being serious? 708 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 3: Absolutely? I do you think he was a kid around? 709 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 4: Well? Do you think they had they just changed from 710 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:03,760 Speaker 4: Florida to Miami. 711 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 3: I'm not sure. I don't know what the timeline was, 712 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 3: uh with that they offered him. 713 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 4: You know, he had played baseball that long, hadn't heard 714 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:12,760 Speaker 4: of the Miami Marlins. 715 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 3: I absolutely believe it could have been the case where 716 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 3: he's like, I never heard of you guys. You know 717 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 3: it's each row. You know, he's paid attention to whatever 718 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 3: he's paying attention to. You think, like the Miami Marlins 719 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 3: are you know in his news feed or something for me? 720 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 4: You know he played them. 721 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 3: Ever, well, it's interesting like the where he was in 722 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,400 Speaker 3: his career and you know all that. I don't know. 723 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 3: I just take him by his word. I call bs 724 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 3: on each row. How dare you? 725 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 4: I'm just saying I'd find that to be pretty like. 726 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 4: I don't know. I think it was more of a 727 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 4: joke maybe, but I I mean, look Cravy, I hadn't 728 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,839 Speaker 4: heard of him before. Good. But again, guy loves ball. 729 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 4: We thought all the time about like loving ball. 730 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,319 Speaker 3: He's a ball he loves the ball man, he does. 731 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 4: Yeah. 732 00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:00,080 Speaker 3: So, uh, he got to the Mariners in one and 733 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 3: you know, went to the Yankees in twenty twelve and 734 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 3: then went to the Marlins in twenty fifteen. So yeah, hey, 735 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 3: maybe maybe you're onto something over there. He was forty 736 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,280 Speaker 3: one years old when he went to the Miami Marlins. 737 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 4: Yeah. See, I I think it's a fun of those 738 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 4: fun stories that I think he's just was more of 739 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 4: a joke. Stir. 740 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,839 Speaker 3: Maybe you're true. Maybe that's a way to take all 741 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 3: the fun out of I. You know, you just what 742 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 3: are you gonna tell me about Santa? 743 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:22,360 Speaker 2: Not? 744 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,279 Speaker 3: You know, I don't want to know about all these things. 745 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I want to go what about Santa? 746 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 3: I want to live blindly, you know, thinking these things. 747 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 3: I can't go down that road. Jeff, there my little kids. 748 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 4: I'm going to say, I don't know what you mean 749 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 4: about that. That's right, there's one okay. The other thing 750 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 4: I also like about this is like he obviously speaks 751 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,279 Speaker 4: very good English. Right, It's a little broken, but it's 752 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,320 Speaker 4: it's very good. And I just find it so fascinating 753 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 4: how players who play in the big leads for that 754 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 4: long obviously speak great English but sort of pretend they 755 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 4: don't to the media. 756 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 3: Yeah right, sure, yeah, some do.

There's a new 787 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 3: docu series out called Tarassi that's right about the former 788 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,720 Speaker 3: basketball player Diana Tarassi. It's now out on Prime Video 789 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 3: if you want to check it out. But there's a 790 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 3: little excerpt from this and she's talking about having to 791 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 3: go overseas to play in Russia because she wasn't making 792 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 3: any money playing in the WNBA. This has gotten quite 793 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 3: the reaction, so listen carefully because some people have had 794 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 3: some very critical things to say about it. Here's Diana. 795 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 8: I'm the best player in the world and I have 796 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 8: to go to a communist country to get paid like 797 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 8: a capitalist. One time I came back and I was like, man, 798 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,840 Speaker 8: my parents have just gotten older and I've missed a 799 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 8: big part of it. We weren't making that much money, 800 00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 8: so generational wealth was coming from going to Russia every year. 801 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 8: Now we have to come back home and get paid 802 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 8: nothing to play in a harder league in worse conditions 803 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 8: against the best competition in the world. The janitor at 804 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 8: arena made more than me. 805 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:29,359 Speaker 3: Okay, so briefly, Jason Whitlock, he tweeted out, when you're 806 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 3: the best at something that has little real value, clueless, 807 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 3: so clueless and entitled. And then our own Doug Gottlieb, 808 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 3: he said, Diana Tarossi sounds arrogant, obnoxious, bitter and petty. 809 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 3: Other than that sounded great according to Doug, I guess, but. 810 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 4: I don't know. 811 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:51,040 Speaker 3: Jeff, you tell me. I think it's easy from your 812 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 3: position to look at Diana and say, man, what's all 813 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 3: this very bitter are you telling me? If you're in 814 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 3: the exact same position, you aren't thinking and possibly saying 815 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 3: the same things. You're the best at what you do, 816 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 3: and you got to go over to Russia to make 817 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 3: a buck and you're getting paid nothing. If playing in 818 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 3: the WNBA, you wouldn't think the same thing. I would. 819 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 4: I just think when you look at just any other job, 820 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 4: if you were the best in the in our country 821 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 4: at that job, you're not making seventy thousand dollars right 822 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 4: like that. That's where her anger comes from. Right now now, 823 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,560 Speaker 4: the janitor comment, that's what fired everyone up.
