Speaker 2: can you get me one of those putters? He goes,

24
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 2: what putters? I said, the Happy Gilmore to putters. I said,

25
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 2: Calloway's putting these out. He goes, I don't know anything

26
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: about it. I go, you're Happy Gilmore. And so next

27
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: thing I know, I've got a Happy go More to

Speaker 3: Yeah.

00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,279
Speaker 4: See shape like a hockey stick on them. Yeah, bottom,

31
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 4: that's great. Yeah, it's a pretty sharp look.

32
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 5: It's great.

33
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 2: But now thank you to Calloway or Happy Gilmore or

00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: Sandler who sent that to me. All Right, we have

35
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 2: a play of the day, poll question, stat of the Day,

36
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 2: all of that forthcoming. I don't really have a direction

37
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 2: with my compass here today. I don't know if there's

38
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,559
Speaker 2: anything that's really right off the bat. You know, we're

39
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 2: still trying to figure out. We're work shopping what is

40
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 2: the lead story today. I'm trying to hold off on

41
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 2: Michah Parsons and Jerry Jones, although it's getting a little

42
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 2: more interesting. Jane Slater did a really good job NFL

43
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 2: Network Cowboys reporter talking to Jerry Jones, and we were

44
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 2: learning about a handshake deal that he had with Micah Parsons.

45
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 2: There's one problem with this, And Mike Florio of Pro

46
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: Football Talk, he pointed this out a couple of days ago.

47
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 2: Owners and players aren't supposed to negotiate contracts. You are

48
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 2: supposed to go through an agent who is certified by

49
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 2: the NFL Players Association. Well, Jerry's been doing this for

50
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 2: a long long time and nobody called him on it.

51
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 2: But now he's saying at a handshake agreement with Michael

52
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 2: Parsons and then all of a sudden he doesn't have

53
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 2: a handshake agreement. Here is Jane Slater talking to Jerry

54
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: Jones about how he does business.

55
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 6: So how would you describe a deal getting, so to speak,

56
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 6: done and then walked away from.

57
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,239
Speaker 7: I bought the Dallas Cowboys with a handshake. Took about

58
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 7: thirty seconds, and I gave the numbers, shook hands. The

59
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,519
Speaker 7: details we worked out later. As a matter of fact,

60
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 7: one of the details involved a lot of money and

61
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,839
Speaker 7: we had to flip a coin over that. But the

62
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 7: fundamental I'm buying and you're going to sell it to

63
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 7: me for that range, that's done and those are done

64
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 7: with eye contact and handshake.

65
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 8: So is there it just so you understand why.

66
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 7: The way that I communicate with people that I negotiate with.

67
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 5: So let's leave it at that.

68
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 7: There is no question that in the case of a

69
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 7: player or contract, you have to have it in writing.

70
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 3: All parties do.

71
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 7: We have a contract in writing, Yet we're still talking

72
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 7: about renegotiating it.

73
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 3: So so much for that.

74
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: Okay, once again, you have to go through an agent.

75
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 2: I don't know what happened, you know, forty years ago

76
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 2: when he bought the Cowboys, when I don't know, did

77
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: you write it down on a napkin?

78
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 3: I don't know.

79
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 2: Here's our number and there's your number, and that's not

80
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: an official deal. Just so you know, a handshake agreement

81
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 2: is not going to hold up. Maybe, Michael Parson said,

82
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 2: and I've been in negotiations before where you get somebody

83
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 2: who kind of.

84
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 3: Gives you the vagaries.

85
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 2: You know, it's kind of gray area, like yeah, you know,

86
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 2: how about yeah, let me think about it.

87
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 3: I'll get back to you.

88
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 2: That doesn't mean now I can shake your hand when

89
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: I leave. That doesn't mean I'm shaking your hand in

90
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 2: agreeing to you. It's let me talk to people. I mean,

91
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 2: that's why you have an agent. Jerry doesn't like dealing

92
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 2: with agents, and then he didn't know Michaeh Parson's agent's name,

93
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 2: or it acted like he didn't a couple of weeks ago. Okay,

94
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 2: he does know who he is, because he's negotiated a

95
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: contract with him with another member of the Dallas Cowboys.

96
00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 2: But Jerry handshake agreement and Michaeh Parson is kind of

97
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 2: renegging on that deal that you agreed to. I'd like

98
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 2: to hear Michael Parson's portion of this, but you know,

99
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 2: to Michaeh Parson's credit, he hasn't said much. He's just like, hey,

100
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get this done, and we're not going

101
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 2: to get this done now you can trade me. That's

102
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 2: really all we've heard from him. I don't know what

103
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 2: the deal is. I know where they're probably going to

104
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 2: land and it's probably going to be forty two million

105
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 2: dollars a year. And is he going to be available

106
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 2: week one? Jerry didn't think so, and he said, yeah,

107
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 2: this is urgent.

108
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 5: Okay.

109
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 2: But James Slater asking him about doing his business and

110
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 2: how he does this business, Jerry did talk about Micah's

111
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 2: contract saga, Well, we need to become urgent.

112
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 8: I mean clearly you want him on the field for

113
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 8: against Lenadelphia. I wanted to become urgent that we need

114
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 8: to get some something resolved one way or another that

115
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 8: he's on the field against Philadelphia.

116
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 7: Again, your definition of urgent is not necessarily I don't

117
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 7: get believe he gave a definition of urgent.

118
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 5: Okay, and so I'll stay urgent.

119
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 8: Any competence that he will be on the field good front.

120
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 7: Door again, No, absolutely not. That has to a big

121
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 7: part of that is his decision.

122
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 3: How would I know that. I'm just saying no, but

123
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 3: I'm urgent. Okay.

124
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 2: I'm not sure he understood the question do you think

125
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: he's going to be there week one? And then he

126
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 2: said no. I don't know if he thought, hey, is

127
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 2: there any chance that he won't be there? And I

128
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 2: thought that's where Jerry was answering no, but trying to

129
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 2: sort this out. I still think a deal gets done.

130
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 2: I don't think you're trading him. I haven't heard anybody

131
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 2: say anything about anybody offering anything for Mica Parsons. Now,

132
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 2: if you have that, okay, now we can have a discussion.

133
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 2: It's like Trey Hendricks with the Bengals or Terry mclauren. Now,

134
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 2: I've seen websites where they'll go potential landing spots for well,

135
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 2: Terry McLaurin. I've seen six teams, but that would just

136
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: be because they need a wide receiver. I don't know

137
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 2: if they've offered anything. Micah Parsons, I haven't heard anything

138
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 2: proposed trades. What if the Bears give two first round

139
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 2: picks and a fourth round pick? There's no reporting attached

140
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: to this, And the same with Trey Hendrickson. Has anybody

141
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 2: made an offer to the Bengals, because it doesn't sound

142
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 2: like anybody has. Now, if somebody does, now we can

143
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 2: have a conversation that this is real, that he could

144
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 2: possibly go.

145
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that, you know, Like we spend a

146
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 4: lot of time talking about Jerry Jones is a brilliant businessman.

147
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 4: He's brilliant. He's a genius, so great at business. Obviously

148
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 4: he's very successful at business. Yeah, but he's a genius businessman.

149
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 4: Like Jay, how about how'd you get through the finer

150
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 4: points of getting the Cowboys? We shook hands and flipped

151
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 4: a coin. That's wow. I had no idea that that's

152
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 4: what goes into being such a genius.

153
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 2: We flipped a coin. I can do both of those.

154
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: I can shake your hand and I can flip a coin.

155
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 3: Really you did it. Don't think I could get the

156
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 3: Cowboys with that strategy.

157
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 9: Yes, Paulie, I somewhat respect what Jerry Jones is saying that,

158
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 9: you know, a handshake deal can start a deal. And

159
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 9: if that handshake deal, though, was last March, things have changed.

160
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 9: Things have changed a lot with the defensive end position.

161
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 9: That handshake is no longer apt with with with yeah, Parsons, No,

162
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 9: I'm saying not with Parsons, but with all the other

163
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 9: players who have signed. It changed the entire market. So

164
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 9: that handshake deal does not hold up what it gives

165
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 9: to the agent four months.

166
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 2: But you should have signed him to the contract back

167
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 2: in March exactly. If you do that now you're binded.

168
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 2: You're bound by that. Then then it's different. If I

169
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 2: shake your hand and say, hey, you know what we'll

170
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 2: get back?

171
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 3: I like you shook.

172
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 2: Hands and you agreed and principal something. I got to

173
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: get the paperwork done then, because I know I got

174
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 2: these other defensive players who are going to be signing

175
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 2: for more money right away. It's urgent, he said. He's urgent.

176
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 3: Why didn't you get the paperwork done?

177
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 8: Yeah?

178
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 4: See, well this is why he doesn't like agents, because

179
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 4: it's possible. Michael Parsons was like, man, that's a good deal,

180
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 4: let's sign And the agent said.

181
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 3: What's the rush?

182
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 2: Why don't we just let the season play out. A

183
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 2: general manager wouldn't allow this to happen. A GM would

184
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 2: have said, we'll drop the papers. We're ready to go,

185
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 2: We'll drop the papers.

186
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 3: Yes, right.

187
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 4: Nobody likes middleman, but man, do they come in handy

188
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 4: sometimes with things like this.

189
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 2: But you're required to deal with the agent. You're required

190
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 2: so you can't say, hey, we're kind of loose when

191
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 2: it comes to negotiating contract. But if I decide that

192
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 2: I'm going to cut you, then you know, do I

193
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 2: have to live up to the contract that we signed

194
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: or just a handshake agreement? Like you can't pick and choose.

195
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 2: But the NFL has allowed Jerry to do this for

196
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 2: decades now. He's the most powerful man in the NFL.

197
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 2: But a handshake agreement. I'd have to know more about

198
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 2: this from Michael Parson's perspective, but you know, it's just

199
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 2: the further along this goes, it just becomes like this abyss.

200
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 2: You go in and you're like, I don't know if

201
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,439
Speaker 2: I'll get out anytime soon. And that's why I always

202
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 2: have trepidation when it comes to discussing this. Am I

203
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 2: humored by Jerry Jones? Sometimes? Yes, I am, but not

204
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 2: a good way. It just he should speak less, He

205
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 2: should have his son speak maybe more. But you know

206
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 2: when you give us these colloquialisms and you know, a handshake,

207
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 2: and that's the way we used to do it, and

208
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 2: that's the good old days and that's not the good

209
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 2: old days now. Michael Parsons has an agent. Deal with

210
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 2: the agent. That's when you get something that's official. That's

211
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 2: when you're going to get something on paper, that's gonna

212
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 2: be something where you sign. That's when you have something

213
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 2: that is binding. Yes, tod, I can appreciate.

214
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 10: What Jerry saying as far as eye contact and you know,

215
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,840
Speaker 10: talking directly to one another. But why does it have

216
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 10: to be instead of an agent being present? Why can't

217
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 10: you have both things. We're gonna talk and we're gonna

218
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,679
Speaker 10: look at each other, we're gonna be in the same room.

219
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 10: But I also want to have my attorney. I got

220
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 10: to protect myself. My agent knows legal things in terms that.

221
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 5: I'm not familiar with. That's why he pays him part

222
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 5: of his contract.

223
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,440
Speaker 3: Jerry loves to do this.

224
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 2: Speaking to a former Cowboy yesterday, he loves to be

225
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 2: there and just talk to you.

226
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 5: That's all.

227
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 3: It's just you and me. We'll just talk and he

228
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 3: can convince you.

229
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 2: To maybe take something that you shouldn't take, or less

230
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 2: than you should take, or well we're gonna take now

231
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: the language that was given to me yesterday by a

232
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 2: former cowboy. He's like, Jerry will say, you know, well,

233
00:11:55,800 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 2: we'll worry about that later. You can't do that, not

234
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 2: with something like this. You're talking two hundred million dollars

235
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 2: with Micah Parsons. Probably it can't be. Will take care

236
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 2: of that a little later whenever.

237
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 3: We need to.

238
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 2: Don't worry about that. No, no, no, we got to

239
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 2: worry about all those things. That's part of the problem

240
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:20,440
Speaker 2: with the Cowboys' attention to detail. Maybe that's why you

241
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 2: haven't been back to the super Bowl in thirty years.

242
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 2: Preseason football ramps up coming up tomorrow. Shardor Sanders gets

243
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 2: the start for the Cleveland Browns. I think he's the

244
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 2: only quarterback who's healthy right now he gets the start.

245
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 2: That'll be fun. ESPN is acquiring NFL Network, also Red Zone.

246
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,959
Speaker 3: I go back eight years ago.

247
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 2: The great writer Jim Miller, who wrote the ESPN Book,

248
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 2: reported that ESPN was trying to reestablish a positive relationship

249
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 2: with the NFL. This is eight years ago the network

250
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:05,439
Speaker 2: was gauging whether to abandon the NFL. They were having

251
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 2: a hard time being a business partner, according.

252
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 3: To Jim Miller. Now they're all in.

253
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 2: Everybody's all in on this, and I know, you know,

254
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 2: the journalist in me talks about or would talk about,

255
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 2: or would point out the conflict of interest. But ESPN

256
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 2: can't be any further in bed with the NFL when

257
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 2: it comes to their coverage. Are they going to look

258
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 2: the other way with whatever negative story that comes up?

259
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 2: They've probably already done that. I mean, go back to

260
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 2: when I was there on ESPN Radio and we were

261
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 2: talking about Playmakers, which was a fictional show and it

262
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 2: was about the NFL. The NFL called up and talked

263
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 2: to my boss and said, hey, take it off your network,

264
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 2: and they did. I don't know if anybody's going to

265
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 2: hold the NFL their feet to the fire. I mean,

266
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 2: I'd liked I hope that there's people. Mike Florio is

267
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 2: one of the few people who will challenge the NFL,

268
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 2: and everybody's in bed with the NFL. All networks have

269
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 2: partnerships here. As far as a conflict of interest, I

270
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 2: think that's long gone. I think there's certain things that

271
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 2: you're just not going to cover. I don't know how

272
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 2: deep the ESPN went in on the mess of the

273
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 2: NFL Players Association. I know Florio did, A couple of

274
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 2: people did, but I don't know if you know that's

275
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,440
Speaker 2: we're in the content business. That's what Jimmy Pataro, who

276
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 2: runs ESPN, they're in the content business. Outside the lines

277
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 2: gone with Bob Lee, Jeremy Shapp. I mean you have

278
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 2: a couple of investigative reporters like E sixty is a

279
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 2: monthly magazine type feature. I'm talking about day to day

280
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 2: looking at stories, giving you both sides of the stories.

281
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,120
Speaker 2: And maybe you don't care about it, you know, maybe

282
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 2: you know being a dinosaur. I do because the NFL

283
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 2: should be held accountable for certain things. But the NFL,

284
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 2: I'm sure does not want. Hey, we own part of

285
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 2: you ten percent. Well, the NFL has probably owned a

286
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 2: lot of ESPN for a long period of time. It's

287
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 2: just not official, that's all. But you know, good for

288
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 2: you know, the mother ship getting that partnership. They've they've

289
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 2: done a good job in establishing. I think they get

290
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 2: three more games. You know, they want to get a

291
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 2: Super Bowl red zone. You're going to get that with

292
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 2: Scott Hansen. So I you know, a lot of moving

293
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 2: parts there. It's a big deal and it's been in

294
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 2: the works for it was on again, off again, now

295
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 2: on again for years. They've talked about this because the

296
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 2: owners were worried about NFL Network and now now it's

297
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 2: ESPN's problem. But there's a lot of great people over there.

298
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 2: They just gutted the place that was the disappointing part

299
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 2: of it at a lot of great football people. They

300
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 2: streamlined it. So then they were going to sell it,

301
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 2: and I said, well, ESPN's going to buy it now

302
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 2: ESPN and their reporters and I don't know how you

303
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 2: cross pollinate, but that that happened and it's a big, big,

304
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 2: big deal for certainly ESPN and NFL Network. All right,

305
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 2: let's take a break. We'll settle on a poll question

306
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 2: just getting started here. We're back after this. On the

307
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,240

325
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 2: Good morning, Mike, what's on your mind today?

326
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 8: Yeah?

327
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 11: Hey, good morning guys. Six foot two, nine point six Hey, thanks, So,

328
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,120
Speaker 11: I just wanted to kind of look at this from

329
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 11: the other side. I know this isn't going to be

330
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 11: the popular opinion here. But in that conversation that Jerry

331
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 11: Jones is actually having with Jane Slader, he talks about

332
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,159
Speaker 11: the hand shake stuff and the coin flip stuff, but

333
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 11: at the end he also says, if you hear him,

334
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 11: he says that there is a contract sign like he

335
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 11: says that the player agreements have to be written, and

336
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 11: then he says, we had a written agreement. But so

337
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 11: much for that. So let me ask you, what is

338
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 11: the actual incentive of signing Michael Parsons early to pay

339
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 11: him forty five million dollars a year. I don't I

340
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 11: don't understand you know what the big deal is.

341
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 2: Okay, let's say I signed Michael Parsons back in March.

342
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 2: The number then was thirty four million, So what is

343
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 2: the number now? It's probably going to be at least

344
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,439
Speaker 2: forty two million dollars because Michaeh. Parsons will ask for

345
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 2: more money than TJ want and Miles Garrett. That's where

346
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 2: you signed somebody early. So now I save eight million

347
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 2: dollars and then the next year I would have gotten

348
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 2: him at thirty four Maybe it goes up to thirty five.

349
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 3: Well, maybe it's going.

350
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,240
Speaker 2: To go from forty two to forty three, so it's

351
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 2: another eight million, and then another eight million, and then

352
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 2: maybe another eight million. So if I have the logic

353
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,960
Speaker 2: there of signing him early at thirty four, maybe I'm

354
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 2: saving over thirty million dollars over the lifetime of this

355
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 2: contract here. That's why I would have signed him right away,

356
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 2: knowing that TJ. Watt was going to get paid, Max

357
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,439
Speaker 2: Crosby was going to get paid, Miles Garrett got paid.

358
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 3: You know what the price is going to be?

359
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, PAULI just to play devil's advocate here, because agents

360
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 9: do surptitious things. What if they had a handshake deal

361
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 9: and a light paperwork deal in March and then the

362
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 9: agent said, don't sign it, let it breathe, let other

363
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 9: guys get signed and let the market change, and we'll

364
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 9: wait till August when there's pressure on them to sign

365
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 9: you and we're going to get you that six million

366
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 9: more per season. It's very possible Jerry Jones and Parsons

367
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 9: and his agent had a deal in place six months

368
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 9: ago and the agent said no, no, let the market pay out.

369
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 3: Did some with some official no.

370
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 9: But you know, I mean, like an agreement in place

371
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 9: until it's inked it means nothing. Yes, it's very possible.

372
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 9: The agents saw the te leaves of TJ. Watt and said,

373
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 9: we'll sign after what.

374
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 2: If if he's a and he is a respected agent,

375
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: you know what the market is.

376
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 9: But signing early doesn't help your client. It helps the

377
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:20,600
Speaker 9: next client.

378
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 2: Yes, but if you're Jerry Jones and we have a

379
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 2: handshake agreement, no, let's let's sign the contract right now.

380
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,439
Speaker 2: The agent's doing what the agent's supposed to do, and

381
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 2: let's look down the road. You don't, you don't want

382
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 2: to sign something, and all of a sudden you go,

383
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,160
Speaker 2: I'm making eight million dollars less than TJ.

384
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 3: Watt.

385
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 2: You know, those guys are coming up, and you know

386
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh's going to sign them, and the Raiders are going

387
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 2: to sign Max Crosby. You're next. Why wouldn't you just wait,

388
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 2: wait until they've signed, then you sign?

389
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, Jerry Jones said, we have a contract

390
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 4: in writing it, were still talking about renegotiating it so

391
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 4: so much for that is the rule. Once you write

392
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 4: it down on paper, it has to be signed. Or

393
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 4: can you write it down on paper and then continue

394
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 4: to negotiate. I mean you can be sorry, that somebody

395
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 4: typed it up. But that doesn't mean that you can't

396
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 4: still be like m I want to tweak this.

397
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,359
Speaker 2: I had a contract at ESPN where they just had

398
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,399
Speaker 2: a blank space and then a blank space and blank

399
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 2: space for how much you're getting paid vacation and they

400
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 2: you know, so they just put in the numbers.

401
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 3: The contract's the same, they just put in the numbers.

402
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the case with Michaeh Parsons,

403
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 2: where hey, we got a contract. We may not have

404
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 2: hard numbers in there, but we got a handshake agreement

405
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 2: that this is the general vicinity of where we're going

406
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 2: to land. Micah Parsons agent did the right thing not signing.

407
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 2: But Jerry, if you had an handshake agreement, you don't

408
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 2: let somebody out the door. It's the same thing when

409
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 2: he was buying the Cowboys. Hey you want to sell okay,

410
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 2: handshake agreement. Let's get this done right now. If you've

411
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,719
Speaker 2: ever bought a car, or a house, or you know,

412
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 2: something with a big purchase, you you know, handshake agreement.

413
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 2: Yeah I'm gonna buy it. That doesn't mean anything. Hey,

414
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 2: we gotta you know, we're gonna sell this to you

415
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 2: for one hundred thousand dollars.

416
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 3: All right, all right, it doesn't mean anything.

417
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 2: Hey, we want to sign you for this, okay, handshake agreement,

418
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 2: all right, doesn't mean anything. And Jerry's not supposed to

419
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,880
Speaker 2: be negotiating with Michaeh. Parsons to begin with. All right,

420
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: spending way too much time on this, I apologize. I

421
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 2: do well out of my way to not talk the Cowboys.

422
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 2: But when you start to hear what Jerry's logic is,

423
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 2: and then there's certain things you have to comment on.

424
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 4: Yes, see, well right, you know, going out of your

425
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 4: way to not talk about the Cowboys means not trying

426
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 4: to squeeze them into every show. When there's legitimate stories

427
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 4: happening and interesting things, you absolutely should talk about them. Yes,

428
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 4: But if it's a slow day, I don't tell you, hey,

429
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 4: let's discuss Dax's legacy. I'm not going to do that

430
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:30,919
Speaker 4: to you.

431
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 2: But when it's something that's real that does affect the

432
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 2: rest of the NFL, you know, there's certain topics that

433
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 2: you know should be vetted.

434
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 4: I do think we should talk about Cede lambmoorph, but.

435
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 3: Joe Milton.

436
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,880
Speaker 2: And the legacy of Trey Lance when he was a backup, quarterback,

437
00:23:49,920 --> 00:24:01,479
Speaker 2: and down. Yeah, the red zone situation is great. Scott Hansen, Uh,

438
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 2: you know, I don't think anything changes. You're just you're

439
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 2: you're buying NFL network.

440
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 3: That's all. You won't see the Cowboys on there much.

441
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, their coverage is going to be the same. I

442
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 2: read where somebody was looking at the deal with ESPN

443
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 2: and NFL Network and the NFL. Maybe there's more global

444
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 2: expansion due to ESPN with football.

445
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 3: But I don't.

446
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 2: I mean, you're dealing with a lot of money here,

447
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 2: and uh, I think it's a great deal for ESPN

448
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 2: for the value of ESPN and the NFL networks, you know,

449
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 2: continues to just gobble up it. You know, they're they're

450
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 2: pac man, They're just gobbling up everything. They're they're dominating,

451
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 2: taking over the sports world. Yes, that man.

452
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 4: Is There a lot of questions about that though, at

453
00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 4: least I know for me, Yeah, that is there even

454
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 4: a line anymore between a league, the newsroom and the

455
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 4: marketplace in general? Is does that line even exist in

456
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 4: this instance? There's all kinds of antitrust questions to be asked.

457
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 4: There's if you're a rival broadcaster of ESPN. I know,

458
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,639
Speaker 4: my hand is raised right now, be only interesting.

459
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 3: If you're Fox, Are you going hold on here?

460
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 4: I mean, ethics and journalism is the easiest part of it.

461
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 3: The rest of it is like geez man.

462
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 2: Fox should have bought NFL network, then they could be

463
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 2: best friends with the NFL.

464
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 9: Yes, Paulin the big picture is all these networks have

465
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 9: partnerships with all these different brands and leagues, and there's

466
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 9: no upside to investigate them and bust them and take

467
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 9: them down for the lack of a better phrase, like

468
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 9: a journalistic phrase, and so if there's a story, they

469
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 9: lean against it until they have to cover it, when

470
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 9: it becomes so big that you have to cover something

471
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 9: and there's no way around it. But not initiating coverage,

472
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 9: initiating investigations that doesn't really happen anymore in the network

473
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 9: mill you Oh yeah, okay.

474
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: And I don't know if you the fans even care

475
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 3: that's what they're banking on. I don't know.

476
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 2: I mean I do, But it's just you have to

477
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 2: hold leagues people accountable. I mean, I want to know

478
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 2: what we're watching is real and we're investigating this and

479
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 2: is there a problem there? And what's that mean? And

480
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,199
Speaker 2: I just don't think you can sort of turn a

481
00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 2: blind eye to it. I think you got to be fair.

482
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:39,919
Speaker 2: You got to be fair to what you're covering and

483
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 2: give both sides to this investigative work there, like the

484
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:50,479
Speaker 2: concussion lawsuit if that came up. Now, are they are

485
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 2: the networks really going to do a deep dive on this?

486
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,160
Speaker 3: I don't think so. I would hope they would.

487
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:05,439
Speaker 2: I just don't mean just from experience, they probably wouldn't. Yes, well,

488
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 2: I've been right.

489
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 4: It's not a lot different than the SEC network isn't

490
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 4: going to do a deep dive into corruption in the SEC,

491
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 4: and that's an ESPN property. You know, there is no

492
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 4: any like anyone talking about how journalism is important right

493
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 4: now is joking.

494
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,120
Speaker 2: And maybe you know the last journalist is Pablo Torre.

495
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 2: He's on an island, but he's doing investigative work. I

496
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 2: appreciate it. Well, granted it's Belichick and his girlfriend, but

497
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 2: he's still doing He's still asking questions and hopefully I'll

498
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 2: continue to do so for the next two and a

499
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 2: half years. Where you just asked the questions that need

500
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 2: to be asked. It's probably the reason why the Commissioner

501
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:53,640
Speaker 2: of the NFL hasn't been on this show for over

502
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 2: a decade. There's no upside for him to come on

503
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 2: and answer questions. I mean, I'll still be fair to

504
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 2: him and fair, you know, to the office. But there's

505
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 2: certain things that you know, you asked questions, Rob Manfred

506
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 2: Adam Silver, come on. It's not always easy questions, but

507
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 2: I'll continue we continue to ask.

508
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 9: Yeah, Paulie, this reminds me of the NCAA offices over

509
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 9: the past twenty five years, where they rarely investigate anybody

510
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 9: or initiate investigations like a Yahoo investigation of Reggie Bush,

511
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 9: and USC has to fall in their lap for them

512
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 9: to enforce it.

513
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 12: Yea.

514
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,879
Speaker 9: It's like, why would they be in the business of

515
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 9: taking down USC or Alabama or any Notre Dame or

516
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 9: anybody that's not good for business.

517
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 2: We did more investigative work on Reggie Bush's heisman. We

518
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 2: found the heisman. They couldn't find his heisman. All of

519
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 2: a sudden, I said to Pauline, find Reggie Bush's heisman.

520
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:53,719
Speaker 3: It took him three days.

521
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 9: It's under a desk in an office in San Diego.

522
00:28:59,480 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 8: Yeah.

523
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Uh, James in Texas, Hi, James, what's on your

524
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 2: mind today?

525
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 13: Hey, brother, how are you doing?

526
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 14: Man?

527
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 3: Good?

528
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 13: Hey, I just wanted to weigh in on this Michael

529
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 13: Parsons agent saying that's going on right now. His agent

530
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 13: was fired by Tie Higgins because of the negotiations going

531
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 13: so poorly. And he's also responsible for the Deshaun Watson contract,

532
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 13: which is the worst contract ever done in you know,

533
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 13: NFL history. So is it possible that he's more to

534
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:32,520
Speaker 13: blame for this than.

535
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 2: Well, wait a minute, did he get the contract from

536
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 2: the Cleveland Browns for Deshaun Watson?

537
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 7: Oh?

538
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 13: For sure.

539
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's one of the greatest contracts in NFL history.

540
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 3: James.

541
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 13: For Deshaun Watson.

542
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 3: Sure, but that's what it represents. He represents his client.

543
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 13: But does it also like almost enforced Jerry Jones's stance

544
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 13: of maybe.

545
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 2: This guy you you still have to deal with his agent, James,

546
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 2: whether you think he's you know, incapable of doing a

547
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 2: deal you're supposed to. You're bound by dealing with agents

548
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 2: in these situations. But I can't criticize the deal he

549
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 2: got for Deshaun Watson. I mean, it's crazy they got

550
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 2: it all guaranteed.

551
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 3: Blame the Browns.

552
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,080
Speaker 2: It's one of the best deals in sports history for

553
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 2: the client.

554
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 3: But thank you for the phone call. Yeah, I'm not blaming.

555
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 2: I mean, do I like it for the NFL or

556
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 2: the Browns or what it means?

557
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 3: No, I don't.

558
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 2: But Cleveland had to give him an offer that he

559
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 2: couldn't refuse. Jerry needs to give Michael Parsons, an agent

560
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 2: his agent, an offer he can't refuse. Bruce in Washington,

561
00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 2: Good morning, Bruce. What's on your mind today?

562
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 12: Gory dan A. Last week he read a short letter

563
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 12: about rating Todd for forty minutes.

564
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 3: Yes, I'm that guy.

565
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 11: I'm that guy.

566
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 12: I'm the one who wrote the letter. I just wanted

567
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 12: to let you know indeed, I am a fan. You

568
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 12: questioned whether or not I was the writer was a fan? Yes,

569
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 12: I am a fan. I just want you to know that.

570
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 3: All right, Well, thank you, Bruce.

571
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 2: And he wrote a letter and said that he wasn't

572
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 2: going to listen, and I berated Todd for forty minutes.

573
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 3: Is that right, Bruce? Is that kind of the context

574
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 3: of the letter.

575
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 14: I don't think.

576
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 12: I don't think I said I wasn't going to listen.

577
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 12: I listen every day. I just think you're a big

578
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 12: proponent of content. What you should be. And I just

579
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 12: think laying on Todd so thick is not good radio.

580
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 12: That's that's all. That's all I wanted you to know.

581
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 3: All right, Well, thank you, Bruce.

582
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 5: God And that was a good signal. Usually I would

583
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 5: have got disconnected and hung up on.

584
00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 3: Like a little while ago to the end. I did.

585
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:04,239
Speaker 3: I tried. I tried to motion to Marvin hang up.

586
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 5: There's a little wink between the time.

587
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:10,520
Speaker 2: Fine, Hey, Bruce, Bruce has an opinion, and I'd respect that.

588
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 2: I'll listen to it. I mean, I don't agree with it.

589
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 5: You don't have to your show. Just one man's opinion. Yeah,

590
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 5: the right opinion. But that's great. You don't have to

591
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 5: go with it.

592
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know if it was forty minutes that

593
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 3: i'd be rated you.

594
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 5: I think it was more like thirty three and a half.

595
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because my over under is usually around thirty

596
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 2: you know, when I start to be Rachel.

597
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 5: That's about it.

598
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 2: That's about right, all right, all right, how about we

00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 2: Get a free estimate today. Uh oh, better get Maco.

621
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 2: I'm looking at the client list of Micah Parson's agent,

622
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 2: Jordan Love, Deshaun Watson, Justin Field, c J. Stroud, Derek Stingley,

623
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 2: Kyle Pitts, Jalen Ramsey. Micah Parsons got a pretty good list.

624
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 3: Here, and.

625
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 2: He did get Deshaun Watson that deal. I mean, we

626
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 2: can look at it and say it's a terrible deal.

627
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 2: It's a terrible deal for the Browns. It's not a

628
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,439
Speaker 2: terrible deal for Deshaun Watson and the agent who got

629
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 2: that deal for him. Uh.

630
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,760
Speaker 3: Tom in North Carolina? Hi, Tom, what's on your mind today?

631
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 12: I'm on the DP.

632
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,440
Speaker 14: I'm kind of switch gears from the Cowboys. We we

633
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,720
Speaker 14: still want to talk about ESPN a little bit, bringing

634
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 14: in Bill Belichick u n C. He's having his the

635
00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 14: beginning of the year press conference today at twelve o'clock.

636
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 14: So I was thinking, I was looking at the schedule,

637
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,919
Speaker 14: looking at it. I'm wondering if you're thinking the same

638
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 14: thing I am about. Is it going to be a

639
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 14: circus like atmosphere, kind of like Deon at Colorado? The

640
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 14: Deon opened up against TCU. Bill Belichick's opened up against TCU.

641
00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 14: It's an ESPN standalone game night game, and the next week,

642
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 14: the next week's games on ESPN Plus.

643
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 2: And so oh, they're gonna They're gonna show North Carolina

644
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 2: because of Belichick. But Belichick doesn't have any charisma. Dion's

645
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 2: got that. Dion has the look. Dion's prime Uh, Dion's

646
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 2: son is the quarterback, Travis Hunter is out there. I

647
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,839
Speaker 2: mean you had tune in factor there, and you know

648
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 2: Dion knew how to show up on the sidelines. His look.

649
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 2: Bill doesn't care about that. I mean, we're gonna tune in.

650
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,879
Speaker 2: You're gonna see Belichick a couple of cutaways, and he's

651
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 2: gonna be the same Bill Belichick that you've always you know,

652
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 2: we've seen for decades now. Nothing exciting about him. We're

653
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 2: gonna tune in and see if his team's any good.

654
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 2: You tuned in to watch Dion on the sidelines to

655
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 2: go along with Travis Hunter and Shador. You know, it

656
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 2: was a package that you got. It was something we

657
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 2: had not seen before. And the media and a lot

658
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 2: of members of the media have covered Dion, been teammates

659
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 2: with Eon, have relationships with Dion, and they came in

660
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 2: in a show of support. But this was also a

661
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 2: big ticket item North Carolina. I don't know if they're

662
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 2: any good. Do they have a player who could be

663
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 2: a Heisman candidate or two? Well that's what Dion had

664
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 2: at Colorado. But thanks for the phone call. Colton in Utah, Hi, Colton,

665
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 2: what's on your mind today?

666
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 15: Addie dan Patrick and the Danetz five to eleven, two

667
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 15: twenty five. I just had a quick question about, uh,

668
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:38,280
Speaker 15: this Michael Parsons and Deshaun Watson. Yeah, this, this agent

669
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 15: is getting all these guys these great contracts. But how

670
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:44,800
Speaker 15: many contracts that fell through the cracks? Cracks maybe because

671
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 15: of greed and is it, you know, kind of the

672
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 15: same thing with the nil in college.

673
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 2: I don't think this deal's falling apart because Michael Parsons

674
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 2: wants to be the highest paid non quarterback in the NFL.

675
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 2: I mean, I would be so prized if Jerry is

676
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 2: surprised that Michael Parsons is gonna want that kind of money.

677
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:10,279
Speaker 2: Jerry may in fairness to Jerry and doing it the

678
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 2: old fashioned, old school way, maybe they did agree to

679
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 2: something in principle. I bet I don't know that. I'm

680
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 2: just trying to be fair to both sides. Maybe they

681
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 2: did agree we're gonna we're gonna settle on this five

682
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 2: year deal. Okay, okay, but it's still not real. It's

683
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 2: a conversation you're having and you're supposed to have it

684
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 2: with the agent, and then the market changed. Yeah, And

685
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 2: what I just always keep in the back of my

686
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 2: head with things like this. Is we're talking about a

687
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,879
Speaker 2: league in which you have assigned contract that a team

688
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 2: can just tear up because they don't like it anymore,

689
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 2: and they could just cut people.

690
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 4: You just cut somebody whenever you want out. Well, it's sorry,

691
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 4: you're not working out for us anymore. So this agreement

692
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:53,359
Speaker 4: that we had doesn't work. We're just gonna cut you.

693
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 3: That is that to me.

694
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 4: It stop with all that, all the handshake agreement stuff,

695
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 4: and hey, what about men being men as we look

696
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 4: at each other in the eye.

697
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 3: Get out of here, dude, what are you talking about?

698
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 3: The only thing that matters is the guaranteed money. That's it.

699
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 2: You can talk about a contract and it's potentially worth this.

700
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,359
Speaker 2: I want to know guaranteed money. That's it because after that,

701
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 2: you know, an owner can say, see you you know

702
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 2: that last year, the last two years. See, you don't

703
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:27,720
Speaker 2: care about it. Let's see, Michael in South Bend and Seeton,

704
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,439
Speaker 2: we got to come up with the poll question. Well,

705
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 2: first hour is almost over, so maybe we'll wait till

706
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:32,879
Speaker 2: the second hour.

707
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 3: Wow for our first hour, man, and we breezed through here.

708
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 16: All right, Hey, Mike, Hey Dan, I just want to

709
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 16: follow up on Bruce from Washington. You know, with guys,

710
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:46,640
Speaker 16: we just say it how it is to each other,

711
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 16: and that just means you're life. With girls, everything's fake.

712
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 16: They all act fake to one another.

713
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 14: But you know, as.

714
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 16: Guys, we just we give each other a crap and

715
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 16: that just means you're one of the guys. So Fritzy, congrats,

716
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 16: you're one of the guys. Also, I wanted to pie

717
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 16: in the face bet Notre Dame in the regular season

718
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 16: goes undefeated. I'm I'm a domer. I think they'll win

719
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 16: the Natty, but wanted to see if anyone else would

720
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 16: take up on that bet of they go undefeated in.

721
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 2: The regular anybody want a piece of Michael south Bend

722
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,720
Speaker 2: Notre Dame goes undefeated? Oh, I got two hands up, Paul.

723
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 9: I'm a Notre Dame fan, but they always have a

724
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 9: Marshall Northern Illinois slip up.

725
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 3: Okay, any going to run all right? Seaton?

726
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,960
Speaker 4: I love Notre Dame, but their schedule is if I'm

727
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 4: not mistaken, I think they have a pretty brutal schedule

728
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 4: this year. I don't think that's gonna happen.

729
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 2: All right, So we got two two takers for at

730
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 2: Marvin three four.

731
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:44,239
Speaker 7: Why not.

732
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 5: Paul just convinced me.

733
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 7: Uh.

734
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 3: Bill in South Carolina, Hi Bill.

735
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,760
Speaker 8: Hey, good morning, Dan and gentlemen, how are you doing today?

736
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 3: Good?

737
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 8: Good, Look, I just wanted to try to add a

738
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 8: little context to the my Parsons thing. There was some

739
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,480
Speaker 8: extensive I guess I'm a little disappointed that between everybody there,

740
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 8: you haven't done some research. But there was some extensive

741
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 8: reporting in the Ringer on August the i UH, and

742
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 8: they referred to an ex statement by Micah regarding this

743
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 8: conversation with Jerry Jones back in the spring, and he

744
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,000
Speaker 8: said he did not understand. You know, I don't want

745
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 8: to quote it, but it's easy to find.

746
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 5: You can.

747
00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:35,399
Speaker 8: You can look it up and do some context here.

748
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 8: But he said it, you know, clearly was not a

749
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 8: quote negotiation. And when Micah and his agents tried to

750
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 8: follow up specifically with the Cowboys after that conversation, the

751
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 8: Cowboys went radio silent. So, you know, they Michaeh and

752
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 8: his eight UH and follow up and make whatever they

753
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 8: talked about official if it was good enough, and just

754
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,399
Speaker 8: by you know, quoting Jerry's.

755
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 2: Well, we're only getting Jerry's side of this though, all right,

756
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 2: thank you Bill. Maybe we get the other side of this,

757
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 2: Maybe we don't. One hour of the Books, two more

758
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 2: to goo
