Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: It is the Dan Patrick Show here Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2: LaVar Arrington, Sandy Quinn, Jonas Knox with you in for
Speaker 2: Dan and the guys here and uh well, not exactly
Speaker 2: the way many people were hoping for that game to
Speaker 2: finish up.
Speaker 3: Last night.
Speaker 2: It was the Nations face off, and I'll say this,
Speaker 2: Q sounds very disappointed.
Speaker 3: It was a bummer. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know about you, LeVar. I wasn't
Speaker 4: rooting for Canada, It's truly not.
Speaker 3: I said they were better than Native Now if it
Speaker 3: was football, is that a ukulele playing? What it sounded like?
Speaker 5: I think so?
Speaker 3: Jesus.
Speaker 6: I mean I would have been ready to cut my
Speaker 6: wrist open if if we played them in like US
Speaker 6: versus Canada and football and we lost.
Speaker 3: But is hockey.
Speaker 4: See that's the difference between you and me. Like I
Speaker 4: would still be feeling that way. And I don't even
Speaker 4: know how to play hockey, but I'd sure as well try.
Speaker 4: I'd be giving it my best effort, falling down, flopping
Speaker 4: around out if.
Speaker 6: I lost, I'd be like, you know what, there's more
Speaker 6: frozen ponds in Canada than there are in the United States,
Speaker 6: and I get it.
Speaker 3: Here's well.
Speaker 4: First off, Canada was the better team last night. For
Speaker 4: anyone who watched, it felt like the US had a
Speaker 4: hard time controlling the puck. It felt like there wasn't
Speaker 4: the same impact as far as the physicality. You know,
Speaker 4: to some degree that the defense held up. But I
Speaker 4: also felt like, and the stats aren't always indicative of this,
Speaker 4: it just felt like when Canada had the opportunities to score,
Speaker 4: they were a bit more legit, They're a bit more
Speaker 4: on net. It was some close calls you maybe want
Speaker 4: to say luck, but there was just moments where if
Speaker 4: you're watching as a fan of the US, you're kind
Speaker 4: of holding on the edge of your seat, being like, okay,
Speaker 4: got by one there, Oh there.
Speaker 5: Was another one.
Speaker 2: Bennington was unbelievable, but you know what was super I
Speaker 2: don't know.
Speaker 4: And overtime was fine, But I'm saying but leading up
Speaker 4: to that point, I thought the US was was better defensively.
Speaker 3: I watched for the first three period.
Speaker 6: First of all, I watched the game because you guys
Speaker 6: made it a big deal on the show leading up
Speaker 6: to the game. That was first and fourth we did
Speaker 6: get all.
Speaker 3: Right, and think about this.
Speaker 6: So then secondly, then then it really dawned on me, like, Wow,
Speaker 6: what an amazing setup in a situation to play off
Speaker 6: of the NFL Super Bowl and everything that has happened
Speaker 6: during the course of this calendar year. You get the
Speaker 6: most ideal matchup in a sport that could be obscure
Speaker 6: to other categories groups of people, and you guys are
Speaker 6: wondering where I'm going with this right then it's like
Speaker 6: they're not like us. They're not like us, Like it's
Speaker 6: probably a minor and I'm sitting there thinking of myself.
Speaker 7: Damn.
Speaker 8: Kendrick Lamar. Drake is sitting somewhere. Drake is sitting there
Speaker 8: proud like.
Speaker 6: We finally won one this year, even though it took
Speaker 6: twenty twenty five to get it, but we got something.
Speaker 3: We won something. Canada won something. I let y'all down.
Speaker 6: Kendrick Lamar's been spanking my ass for a whole entire
Speaker 6: calendar year, won awards off of going at me? Does
Speaker 6: it at the Super Bowl and everybody's like pro America
Speaker 6: and forgot about how dope Canada is in lo and behold,
Speaker 6: here we go when it really mattered for us in
Speaker 6: a sport that really matters to us.
Speaker 3: And to them, we won. We won. Drake won last
Speaker 3: night and I was watching it and as I'm watching
Speaker 3: it from Drake, I'm like, damn, I bet you.
Speaker 6: Drake is sitting somewhere like, please don't lose, please, please,
Speaker 6: please don't lose please, And it made it more interesting
Speaker 6: to me. And I just wonder how many people around
Speaker 6: the country that were in on this whole. There's a
Speaker 6: lot of people that are connected to this, Draken and
Speaker 6: Kendrick Lamar Beef And I'm telling you, somewhere, Drake was
Speaker 6: sitting there and it's going to come out at some
Speaker 6: point he's going to reference that game and he's going
Speaker 6: to try to use it as a way to say
Speaker 6: that I told you Canada is better than America based
Speaker 6: on actually it made it interesting.
Speaker 2: Go ahead, well, I was just going to say it
Speaker 2: the based on the attire at the super Bowl, the
Speaker 2: Bell Bottom. I don't really see Ken clairmar as a
Speaker 2: hockey by the way they call him. It doesn't strike
Speaker 2: me as a hockey fan, don't. They don't call him
Speaker 2: bell Bottoms anymore, Jonas. It's called flared bottom.
Speaker 3: By what you want, I'm just telling you, just telling.
Speaker 5: You, I don't know whose calm it was.
Speaker 4: I was reading about it, but it was kind of interesting,
Speaker 4: and they were play on the adversarial position of the
Speaker 4: Drake Kendrick Lamar conversation because the popular opinion the easy
Speaker 4: thing to say, Oh, Kendrick Lamar won this stuff, you
Speaker 4: hit super Bowl, you know all this stuff, and they
Speaker 4: actually he said the fact that the biggest moment for
Speaker 4: Kendrick Lamar was the super Bowl halftime show and he
Speaker 4: couldn't do anything other than perform a song that's a
Speaker 4: distrack to Drake because that's where Drake lives in his head,
Speaker 4: rent free. And if you're comparing the two as far
Speaker 4: as what they've accomplished so far in their rapping careers,
Speaker 4: it's not even close. I mean, obviously Drake's been way
Speaker 4: more successful. So I was actually, I've root in this
Speaker 4: column and I was thinking, I don't have a dog
Speaker 4: in the fight.
Speaker 5: I honestly could care less.
Speaker 4: But it was an interesting perspective that, like, if you
Speaker 4: really think about it, as much as people want to
Speaker 4: kind of give Kendrick Lamar, oh he's the winner. He
Speaker 4: did that, it's like, well, yeah, but I think Drake's solid, Okay,
Speaker 4: I mean his name is like still out there. Granted
Speaker 4: he's saying what he's saying and there's different accusations, but
Speaker 4: he's been way more successful. He'll continue to be more successful.
Speaker 4: And like, I'm not sure that after the super Bowl
Speaker 4: halftime show, Like did that help Kendrick Lamar, Like I
Speaker 4: think people who knew Hi knew him. People like his rap,
Speaker 4: like it's wrap. I'm not sure like grew anything. I
Speaker 4: think if anything, it's just kind of like all right,
Speaker 4: no sweet like the US one.
Speaker 5: I felt like we won that one.
Speaker 4: But ultimately, if you're looking at like the long term,
Speaker 4: like I mean, I'm not sure Kendrick Lamar wins in
Speaker 4: the long and in the long run.
Speaker 6: Between this, I'll just say this. This, this to me
Speaker 6: was one of those scenarios where you're looking at a
Speaker 6: guy and and Drake has always been considered like the sexy,
Speaker 6: light skinned it lover right, like people are so by, well,
Speaker 6: that's super light, that's like super white chocolate sexy lover.
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
Speaker 4: You know, I take exception to that. I've got somewhat
Speaker 4: old skin. I'm pretty sure we uh we.
Speaker 6: Well light skin, and your category is very compare in
Speaker 6: New Orleans to one another. And yeah, I mean, you're
Speaker 6: not too many shades off from me, and I'm I'm
Speaker 6: on the darker side.
Speaker 3: But like you you you you were white.
Speaker 5: I just you're going to go, you go. We're not
Speaker 5: doing this.
Speaker 3: This is not okay.
Speaker 6: We could do it over the radio, but we are
Speaker 6: not going to do this live and in person. I mean,
Speaker 6: we're just not going to do it.
Speaker 3: But I will say, I look like a paper towl
Speaker 3: that still a arm. Huh.
Speaker 6: Some of some of Che's mannerisms when he got a
Speaker 6: little bit of oil in him are very light skin.
Speaker 3: That's all I'm gonna say.
Speaker 7: Me.
Speaker 3: Damn, I'm just gonna say.
Speaker 6: And you see the way people flock to light skin cats, Man,
Speaker 6: they just seem more. They just seemed more, you know,
Speaker 6: like approachable, you know, very like seem like more attractive.
Speaker 5: To My name is Tyrone.
Speaker 6: I get it, bro, I get it. That's what I'm
Speaker 6: trying to say. And in the end, the point of
Speaker 6: the matter is is that if I was Kendrick Lamar
Speaker 6: and you was Drake at that bar on Thursday in
Speaker 6: New Orleans, Drake was still winning.
Speaker 3: That's all I'm gonna say.
Speaker 6: And that was culminated by a win and a dub
Speaker 6: by Canada in this this World Cup last night.
Speaker 4: That's I take one extent with the format, and I
Speaker 4: realized we have an NHL season to play and so
Speaker 4: we can't drag this thing out.
Speaker 5: But they split. It was a round robin. They got to.
Speaker 4: Play twice USA, one on their turf. The first time
Speaker 4: they won on the USA's turf. It feels like for
Speaker 4: the championship it should be like a best of three, like,
Speaker 4: let them play at least one two.
Speaker 5: More games to figure this thing out.
Speaker 4: Now, this is gonna sound like a sore loser, teddy
Speaker 4: Canadians out there, And if you feel that way, I'm
Speaker 4: just saying you got beat up the first time around.
Speaker 5: We took it on the chin this last time. I'd
Speaker 5: love to see two more. Let's run it back, let's
Speaker 5: run it back.
Speaker 4: I'd love to see I'd love to see a best
Speaker 4: of three for the actual championship of the four nations
Speaker 4: as opposed to the whole round robin you know format,
Speaker 4: which again, it just I understand how it works.
Speaker 5: It just it would have been nice to see a
Speaker 5: best of three series.
Speaker 2: Somebody brought it up post game, might have been Steve
Speaker 2: Levy or got to forget who Ray Ferrara. Somebody made
Speaker 2: the comment that there was an idea that was floated
Speaker 2: out there kind of in jest, like, eh, well what
Speaker 2: about this thought that they would you know, you don't
Speaker 2: really need anybody else if you just every year did
Speaker 2: a hey, just for the hell of it, best of
Speaker 2: five series between the US and Canada and hockey.
Speaker 3: That's all you need. People would watch.
Speaker 2: They would like, you don't need Finland, you don't need
Speaker 2: no like, just have those two go at it yearly.
Speaker 2: Make it a tradition, do some sort of a I
Speaker 2: like it.
Speaker 3: It's fun.
Speaker 6: Man, Like, you know, does that apply to the NBA.
Speaker 6: Maybe the NBA could stand and learn something from it.
Speaker 6: A coros VERSUS Americans.
Speaker 2: A couple of years ago, Baseball did this World Baseball Classic.
Speaker 6: Before that, I mean we would lose, We would get
Speaker 6: our asses kicked, but people but people loved it because
Speaker 6: we would lose.
Speaker 3: That one.
Speaker 2: You saw you know, up and coming stars. You saw
Speaker 2: these players from Japan that nobody had seen before.
Speaker 3: It was aged in.
Speaker 2: The US at different ballparks around and it was before
Speaker 2: spring training, before the season, or in the midst of
Speaker 2: spring training and they're going to bring it back. I
Speaker 2: think in twenty twenty six is when it comes back.
Speaker 2: But you saw that there was a wow. This worked
Speaker 2: a lot better than we thought it was going to.
Speaker 2: And this had the same feel last night to where
Speaker 2: they kind of fell upon something that they've got to
Speaker 2: build on. And for as much as we want to
Speaker 2: say about well it's you know, it's hockey and how
Speaker 2: many people care about it in this country, I guarantee
Speaker 2: you people will start following the sport and start following
Speaker 2: the NHL based.
Speaker 6: On what an easy marketable deal, right, you can leverage
Speaker 6: that in the market. It's relevant within each market. And
Speaker 6: let me ask you, what do you think the percentage
Speaker 6: of Canadians playing in the NHL are plus you'd have
Speaker 6: you have NHL franchises that are in Canada, So like
Speaker 6: what would that like, what would that population be? I'm
Speaker 6: sure it's significant enough. I know we get their biggest
Speaker 6: stars coming to play in the NHL.
Speaker 3: Listened, Like, imagine that Canada for the way three percent?
Speaker 4: Just a little history on this, uh, dating back to
Speaker 4: the nineteen eighties, it will used to be seventy five percent.
Speaker 6: Damn Yeah, they're better taken I mean in theory you
Speaker 6: would consider them to be better. I mean, I just would.
Speaker 6: I think it would be interesting and and honestly, maybe
Speaker 6: every single sport could benefit from that. Instead of doing
Speaker 6: the Pro Bowl where you take the all pros and
Speaker 6: you do this weird ass water down deal, have them
Speaker 6: play the best mother lovers that play in Canada have
Speaker 6: had like the second tier guys.
Speaker 3: You wouldn't watch that. We just don't know that they
Speaker 3: could field a team.
Speaker 6: No, bro, they played football in Canada. I don't know
Speaker 6: if you watch Canadian football. They played football in Canada.
Speaker 6: All I'm gonna say is it would bring a different
Speaker 6: market into watching a singular game because of the pride
Speaker 6: of Canada versus the US. The US versus Canada. Don't
Speaker 6: use the best of the best, Use those ones, give
Speaker 6: them a bonus and send them out there and have
Speaker 6: a real ass exhibition game against the best of the
Speaker 6: best in the Canadian Football League. That gives you what
Speaker 6: you want with the American viewers, It gives you what
Speaker 6: you want for the Canadian viewers, and it gives you
Speaker 6: an opportunity to showcase players that might have needed an
Speaker 6: opportunity to get some exposure.
Speaker 3: I would do it in basketball too.
Speaker 6: You want to make a different format that matters to
Speaker 6: the fan, where it's like there's a sense like Q
Speaker 6: was talking about earlier in the week, where there's a
Speaker 6: sense of pride or the intensity. You think an American
Speaker 6: NFL football player wants to lose a game to a
Speaker 6: Canadian League football player.
Speaker 3: Let them lose that game.
Speaker 6: You know how much scrutiny and criticism would come upon
Speaker 6: the NFL and the players if they lost. I guarantee you,
Speaker 6: with that bonus money and with them playing that game
Speaker 6: with the pride of the USA, they would play their
Speaker 6: asses off.
Speaker 4: It's like the Olympics watching the NBA. You know, players
Speaker 4: go over and play in the Olympics for USA.
Speaker 3: You don't want to see them lose.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you you do not want to see what we
Speaker 6: believe is we're the superpower. We are the ones that
Speaker 6: are superior to everybody else. If you lose, it is
Speaker 6: the end of.
Speaker 2: The world unless you bet on the other team. Oh,
Speaker 2: you know, like you like who they have. I think
Speaker 2: the Sudan uh they almost won, took the US to
Speaker 2: the wire last year or something like that.
Speaker 3: One. I mean, you got them at plus forty or something.
Speaker 3: That's a big pay. Yeah, but that's you.
Speaker 6: You're moving the gold post like like forget Sudan, like
Speaker 6: like I'm saying, take the superpower of taking the best players, which,
Speaker 6: by the way, a lot of those players are American
Speaker 6: football players that air quotes did not We're not able
Speaker 6: to make get playing in the NFL. Imagine you take
Speaker 6: the All Stars, the best of the best out of
Speaker 6: the Canadian Football League, off their teams. You put them
Speaker 6: together and they represent Canada in an exhibition game against
Speaker 6: what would be perceived as the best of the best
Speaker 6: of the NFL. But it would not be the best
Speaker 6: of the best. You're not You're not putting Patrick Mahomes
Speaker 6: or Josh Allen out there. You're putting Dak Prescott.
Speaker 3: Chad Kelly lighting up Vic Fangio's defense.
Speaker 6: Come on, man, come on man, you tell me you
Speaker 6: wouldn't want to I would rather attend that game than
Speaker 6: the Super Bowl. I would actually want a ticket to
Speaker 6: go watch that game.
Speaker 5: Jonas is an idiot.
Speaker 3: He was an idiot.
Speaker 4: I did not realize how he slipped that in there.
Speaker 4: Chad Kelly is not born in Canada.
Speaker 3: Jonas place for the CFL.
Speaker 5: I figure it doesn't mean, he's gonna represent that.
Speaker 2: You think he could do a twenty three and meter
Speaker 2: and find out he's got a relative from Toronto somewhere.
Speaker 5: Probably not?
Speaker 4: Dang well, I mean, are you basing that off of
Speaker 4: just him being related to Jim Kelly and the inside
Speaker 4: of the house situation. You know, it feels like a
Speaker 4: loose accusation that far off. There's something wrong.
Speaker 6: Jonas loves slipping in weird little sad bars.
Speaker 3: I figured that's what he meant.
Speaker 6: I didn't know who the second one was, but I
Speaker 6: knew who the first one was, so it's fine.
Speaker 5: She she didn't see when he gave you that little grin.
Speaker 6: He looked over with the you know, with his little
Speaker 6: fang hanging out his mouth.
Speaker 4: Here's Here's all I know is I'm watching the game,
Speaker 4: and during the course of the game, it comes across
Speaker 4: my mind. Oh yeah, Lee was supposed to be going
Speaker 4: out tonight.
Speaker 3: Yeah did you go out? Oh? Yeah, sure did went
Speaker 3: to Uh oh did you hear the way? Responded sure did?
Speaker 3: He is lit up?
Speaker 8: There's number two. Check out number two.
Speaker 3: Hey, what's the what what damage you do last night?
Speaker 3: Perfect ingredients?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: Damn? Check number three.
Speaker 9: I p a quick quick shot. When the lady went
Speaker 9: to the bathroom.
Speaker 5: Lady Lady hold On, explain how that works?
Speaker 4: So she gets something, says to you, Hey, honey, I
Speaker 4: don't use the bathroom real quick? Are you waiting until
Speaker 4: she's far enough away where you can bet?
Speaker 5: Bartender? Bartender? And you're like trying to get him to
Speaker 5: rush over to her?
Speaker 3: More so was she?
Speaker 9: And yes, I did. I got caught her attention. I said, hey,
Speaker 9: can I have a quick one? And you know we
Speaker 9: sometimes they they kind of get they kind of get
Speaker 9: the game. I got to make sure you clarify what
Speaker 9: mem I'm kicking it with a nice gentleman who's in
Speaker 9: town from Boston. He's watching them, he's watching the game.
Speaker 9: His wait, he's waiting for a table for his kids
Speaker 9: are waiting for a table. And I said, hey, you
Speaker 9: mind me putting this shot glass in front of you?
Speaker 3: Slide it right over. And then she comes back. She's
Speaker 3: none the wiser.
Speaker 10: So I have myself an I p a is shot
Speaker 10: and then uh, and then she goes to the movie
Speaker 10: and I have myself a little long island.
Speaker 3: As I'm paying the bill out the door, he did
Speaker 3: you go meet her at the movie? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Oh, and if you're doing an I P A A
Speaker 2: shot and a long Island, you gotta suck it back
Speaker 2: quick so she doesn't know it. She clearly doesn't care
Speaker 2: about it, probably floating by the time he walked in there.
Speaker 3: Listen to what he said. She left him twice for
Speaker 3: the bathroom.
Speaker 6: So do you leave your your crackhead buddy, family member, boyfriend,
Speaker 6: girlfriend alone in front of a crack dealer? I mean,
Speaker 6: you want some rocks crack his Why I'm not gonna
Speaker 6: walk away and leave you in front of there to.
Speaker 3: I'm not leaving you there to get that rock. Yeah,
Speaker 3: wait to violate her. She don't really care about you, Lee.
Speaker 6: She left you there knowing that you was at the
Speaker 6: bar by yourself.
Speaker 2: Come on, man, if she knew he was sucking back
Speaker 2: Long Islands and IPAs, he would have walked into a
Speaker 2: gatling gun in the theater.
Speaker 6: Bro, do you understand when somebody doesn't want you to
Speaker 6: do something? You know what she would have said, walk
Speaker 6: me to the restroom. You know what she'd have said,
Speaker 6: You're going to the entrance with me. Maybe you haven't
Speaker 6: experienced that either yourself, Jonas, But I'm just trying to
Speaker 6: tell you. If somebody cares that much about what you're doing. Look,
Speaker 6: he drinking something right now. If you were to do
Speaker 6: something that somebody that loves you cares about you not doing,
Speaker 6: like say, drinking too much, you're not going to walk
Speaker 6: away from them one time and leave them there. Let
Speaker 6: alone go there to the first time, Like, we're not
Speaker 6: going to the bar together. That's first and foremost. Then
Speaker 6: I'm certainly not going to leave you one time at
Speaker 6: the bar. Then secondly, I'm not going to leave you
Speaker 6: two times like, oh, I'm gonna go get the popcorn
Speaker 6: and the skittles and and the bond bonds that at

Speaker 7: just it's learning. It's a like not having a fear
Speaker 7: of something being really like slippery underneath your feet, right Like,
Speaker 7: I'm just concerning about that. The actual act of skiing
Speaker 7: versus skating is the same, is that you're you're skating
Speaker 7: on the edges of your skates, right Like, You're not
Speaker 7: skating on the flat part of your skates, which is
Speaker 7: the same as skis. So if you hear the ski
Speaker 7: on your edges, you'll learned how to skitches too. So
Speaker 7: there's definitely some carryover if you want the technical explanation
Speaker 7: for larn.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 6: Was there a carry over into that Canadian USA game
Speaker 6: last night?
Speaker 3: Did you guys watch it? How did you feel about it?
Speaker 7: That was awesome, wasn't it? Like I mean the intensive
Speaker 7: I mean that was that was incredible, incredible, incredible level
Speaker 7: of competition. And it's like, now, I don't know that
Speaker 7: that would transfer over to any other sport, but you
Speaker 7: could do that in any other sport and replacing an
Speaker 7: also game. But I mean, all.
Speaker 4: Right, so Albert Breer with us here, this interview off
Speaker 4: just so that we could be right here.
Speaker 5: In the middle of the mountains.
Speaker 2: So Albert, I have a so football question for you.
Speaker 2: Here the Matt Stafford stuff that's out there where you
Speaker 2: know there's money he wants more. There's the potential. We
Speaker 2: talked to you about this in New Orleans and you said, no,
Speaker 2: there's like a real potential. Maybe he's not back with
Speaker 2: the Rams. Is this prickly money or is there maybe
Speaker 2: more here because it seems like that's a great spot
Speaker 2: for him, Maybe he would cut him a deal. Yet
Speaker 2: he has to be paid in the top ten according
Speaker 2: to some reports.
Speaker 7: Well, yeah, it's it's a few different things. It's money
Speaker 7: for sure. And look like you know, LeVar Brady, you
Speaker 7: guys know how this stuff goes through your players. Like
Speaker 7: the raise he got last year, a five million dollar
Speaker 7: raise he got last year wasn't really a raise. It
Speaker 7: was they were moving money forward. So they borrowed four
Speaker 7: million dollars from this year and a million dollars from
Speaker 7: next year to give him a five million dollar raise.
Speaker 7: So that basically means like, yes, it's a five million
Speaker 7: dollar raise on paper for that particular year, but now
Speaker 7: it's a pay cut a future year. So you have
Speaker 7: to reckon with that. That negotiation was very difficult. Took
Speaker 7: about six months for them to find a solution. The
Speaker 7: solution was very clearly a band aid, and everybody knew
Speaker 7: they were going back to the table and that's where
Speaker 7: they are now now. I think for Stafford definitely, you know,
Speaker 7: you want to you want to be where the market is,
Speaker 7: and you want some guarantees in there, and you want
Speaker 7: to know you're going to be the starting quarterback and
Speaker 7: all that different stuff. As silly as that sounds, but
Speaker 7: that's part of it. Oh boy, you know, they're much
Speaker 7: they're much younger than they were a couple of years ago,
Speaker 7: and you know, so they're building around this younger core,
Speaker 7: and so the question becomes do you want to pay
Speaker 7: all that money and still go to year to year? So,
Speaker 7: in other words, is Matthew Stafford telling you I'm good
Speaker 7: for this year or is he telling you I'm good
Speaker 7: for the next three years? And if you're gonna give
Speaker 7: him a ton of guaranteed money, are you okay? If
Speaker 7: it's just for this year and then next year you're
Speaker 7: right back here worrying about your quarterback situation again. Or
Speaker 7: if somebody comes along with the first round pick, are
Speaker 7: you better off trading him for a first round pick
Speaker 7: and going find going and finding a bridge like a
Speaker 7: Sam Darnold or somebody like that, where you've got a
Speaker 7: little bit more certainty beyond this year. It's complicated for
Speaker 7: all those different reasons. I think Matthew wants to remain
Speaker 7: I ram and wants to keep playing for Sean McVay.
Speaker 7: I know Sean McVay wants Matthew Stafford to be his quarterback.
Speaker 7: But whether or not they can find a common ground
Speaker 7: contractually and an agreement on you know what his plan is,
Speaker 7: not just for this year, but going forward. I think
Speaker 7: all that's the stuff that needs to be worked out. Probably,
Speaker 7: you know, one way or the other, you're you're going
Speaker 7: to get closer to closure on it at the combine
Speaker 7: next week.
Speaker 4: Albert, I'm going to ask you about Rogers. Do you
Speaker 4: think he's done or do you think he wants to
Speaker 4: keep playing. If he does keep playing, where would be
Speaker 4: the best destination for him.
Speaker 7: Well, so he told the Jets that he intends to
Speaker 7: play in twenty twenty five when they were going through everything. Now,
Speaker 7: you and I both know Brady like that can change,
Speaker 7: but like that was his intention, and he said that
Speaker 7: was his intention to the Jets. I also know just
Speaker 7: for my communication with him, you know, and sitting down
Speaker 7: with them for a while last summer like that, you know,
Speaker 7: he really felt like he had unfinished business coming off
Speaker 7: the Achilles and he didn't want to go out like that.
Speaker 7: And off the year that does Yets have, I'd imagine
Speaker 7: you wouldn't want to go out like this either. So
Speaker 7: so yeah, I mean I think he wants to play.
Speaker 7: And you know, now the question becomes to the Jets
Speaker 7: to release him, do they try to trade him? You know,
Speaker 7: they're still working through how like the divorce is actually
Speaker 7: gonna be consummated. As for like places that I think
Speaker 7: would have some interest in them, I mean, for me,
Speaker 7: like Pittsburgh's the ultimate one for Stafford, for Rogers, as
Speaker 7: far as like a team that could use like uh
Speaker 7: an answer for right now that has a lot of
Speaker 7: guys and a lot of pieces in place at the
Speaker 7: pee for championship right now. You know, I think Rogers
Speaker 7: would love the idea of going to the Rams. You know,
Speaker 7: he lives in Los Angeles, so that's obviously a part
Speaker 7: of it. With the wo Pete Carroll look at him,
Speaker 7: and with Aaron be enticed by that, even though like
Speaker 7: they aren't as close or anywhere near as close to
Speaker 7: compete for a championship as the Steelers are. You know,
Speaker 7: I I see all those sort of as as possibilities.
Speaker 7: And again, like I think, like his amount of opportunity
Speaker 7: is gonna be very narrow because you're gonna have to
Speaker 7: check a lot of boxes to want him, and you're
Speaker 7: gonna have to check a lot of boxes for him
Speaker 7: to want you. And you know, like then there's the
Speaker 7: whole thing is like you know it is he still
Speaker 7: capable playing at a high level over seventeen games. I
Speaker 7: think you up flashes of it at the end of
Speaker 7: last year, the jability in particular.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's still there.
Speaker 7: I'm here all right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're going a little bit now at the risk
Speaker 3: of it going out again, And.
Speaker 7: I agree, you guys fight through this with me. It's
Speaker 7: going to be an all time Yeah.
Speaker 3: No worse, no worse. Nort Really Kujas in the background
Speaker 3: tearing tobody.
Speaker 6: It's a good Can I ask you the Michael Parsons
Speaker 6: contract situation, Is there anything that we could be missing?
Speaker 6: You know, when there's a new coach, it's always always
Speaker 6: say you go into the Russian Roulette type of play.
Speaker 6: You keep removing bullets from the chamber. Oh not from
Speaker 6: the chamber, but from like just the whole entire you know.
Speaker 6: Deal when when you get a new coach, like remove
Speaker 6: it because you're not that guy. You know, you get
Speaker 6: removed from one more guy. It's not that guy. Next thing,
Speaker 6: you know, you know, the bullets in the chamber. Is
Speaker 6: there any way that Michael Mike Michael Parsons could be
Speaker 6: I guess view differently than what everybody's looking at and saying, Okay,
Speaker 6: we need to build our offense up, which they do
Speaker 6: and that's probably the biggest priority than anything else. Does
Speaker 6: that does Micah's contract situation super seed or does it
Speaker 6: fall in line with what Jerry Jones is going to
Speaker 6: have to spend in order to one keep him and
Speaker 6: keep him happy, but to make this this team better
Speaker 6: for for Shottenheimer.
Speaker 7: All right, So like LaVar, if you're talking about him
Speaker 7: as a player, I don't think there's any disagreement. He's
Speaker 7: a unique talent.
Speaker 11: You know that.
Speaker 7: Better than anybody he's I think if you're looking the
Speaker 7: craft even you can see like psych ab dual Carter
Speaker 7: and and Jalen Walker from from Jordan almost like yeah,
Speaker 7: it's almost like it's almost like Mike uh like launched
Speaker 7: new genre you know of like this kind of Swiss army,
Speaker 7: nice pass rusher who can also play off the line
Speaker 7: and all that. So I think everybody's an agreement on
Speaker 7: what type of player he is. Some of his relationships
Speaker 7: in that building were strained, and I I like that
Speaker 7: wor not the content the last off season, But I know,
Speaker 7: like like with a new coach come in and anybody
Speaker 7: been around Brian Schottenheimer the other person he is right
Speaker 7: like and how he's got like a little bit of
Speaker 7: that Pete Carroll to him, where he's very like just
Speaker 7: an optimistic guy who's can work with anybody that may
Speaker 7: wind up solving some of the things.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 7: Now the question becomes are you willing to pay him
Speaker 7: forty million dollars per year? Because I think that's probably
Speaker 7: where the number is going to wind up being. And
Speaker 7: if you have a hard time wrapping your heads around
Speaker 7: it after you paid Ceeelamb thirty four million and Dak
Speaker 7: Prescott sixty million, you know, if a team calls and
Speaker 7: offers you two first round picks and is willing to
Speaker 7: pay the forty million dollars that Micah Parsons probably will
Speaker 7: want are you going to listen? And I think that
Speaker 7: that's where this is right now. Like I don't think
Speaker 7: the Cowboys are going to call around and shop him
Speaker 7: or anything else, but I think enough people have heard
Speaker 7: about some of the relationship issues from last offseason there
Speaker 7: that if they're willing to pay what it's going to
Speaker 7: take to go and get him, then and like, yes,
Speaker 7: you pick up the phone and you see, okay, like
Speaker 7: are they going to hang up on us? Are they
Speaker 7: going to listen to us? So I think that's sort
Speaker 7: of where it's at, you know. And again like I
Speaker 7: don't know, you know, I don't know what the cowboys
Speaker 7: appetite for listening is right now, but the based on
Speaker 7: where it was six months ago in base, on how
Speaker 7: much they paid those two other guys, I mean, I
Speaker 7: would think there probably is a price point where they
Speaker 7: would have to think about it.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 4: Interesting, How I got one more quick one. The combine's
Speaker 4: coming up in Indianapolis. How much longer will the combine
Speaker 4: be in Indy?
Speaker 11: You know, I don't know if there's like now it's like, hey,
Speaker 11: we are maxed.
Speaker 3: Down than jeez, we got greedy. We did. Huh damn,
Speaker 3: we weren't greedy. That's unfortunate. Well, the mountains adue to you.
Speaker 2: Listen Albert Brier assuming uh.
Speaker 3: You know, oh there is there he is, all right
Speaker 3: there we go all right, yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah, okay. So that the teams are sensitive about is
Speaker 7: the medical.
Speaker 3: We're not good. Yeah, yeah, we're not good. I mean listen,
Speaker 3: you know we're not good.
Speaker 6: But we want you to be safe. Ab make sure
Speaker 6: we get to your neck. Yeah, you're going in and
Speaker 6: out so much. Just just be careful and be safe.
Speaker 7: And it was a valiant effort.
Speaker 3: It was. It was we can actually hear you now.
Speaker 7: Okay, well you guys want to finish.
Speaker 3: Come on yeah yeah, Megan, hit it quick too, before
Speaker 3: you go back out.
Speaker 7: I think the medical.
Speaker 8: Smell that smells like something down on somebody.
Speaker 2: Oh geez, well geez, Johnny, you don't have to pop
Speaker 2: off of that. All right, Well, we will listen. That
Speaker 2: was great with Albert Breer. You can get him on
Speaker 2: X at Albert Breer if you have any complaints. But
Speaker 2: to be fair, he was driving in between two giant
Speaker 2: mountains with no cell towers, trying to get to his
Speaker 2: next ski destination, so we appreciate him hanging out with

Speaker 2: It, and for that we turn it over to our
Speaker 2: executive producer, Lead.
Speaker 7: Lap.
Speaker 3: Good morning everybody. Good morning Jonas, Good morning Brady, Good
Speaker 3: morning LeVar. Guys.
Speaker 10: In case you missed this, we talked to Hayley. Hey, Brady,
Speaker 10: we talked the other day about Shador Sanders. He's obviously
Speaker 10: not going to be going to the draft, but his
Speaker 10: brother Shiloh apparently not even invited to the Combine, but
Speaker 10: that doesn't stop him from bringing the combine to him.
Speaker 10: He had hired Zybeck Sports to come and track his
Speaker 10: training and his progress. They are the same company that
Speaker 10: has been providing the official timing to the NFL Combine
Speaker 10: for the last fourteen years. The question is, though, is
Speaker 10: like does he get to pick and choose which times
Speaker 10: he delivers? He says he's going to be delivering these
Speaker 10: progress reports to the team so that they have it.
Speaker 2: But why didn't he get invited to the combine? Was
Speaker 2: he not good enough or not considered a good enough prospect?
Speaker 3: Why? Like, why the decision not to bring it in?
Speaker 3: That's wrong? How does this stop work? I don't know
Speaker 3: any answers.
Speaker 5: I mean, what are you asking?
Speaker 3: Why wasn't he invited to the combine?
Speaker 4: Well, there's a list of athletes they feel like have
Speaker 4: the best opportunity to get drafted, and those guys are
Speaker 4: the ones invited. That doesn't mean he won't get drafted.
Speaker 4: There's players who don't get invited to the combine that.
Speaker 3: Do get drafted.
Speaker 4: But that is most likely the thought to a lot
Speaker 4: of the evaluators and the people who handle the combine
Speaker 4: and invite all the participants.
Speaker 5: Is that like simple enough?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I mean, but why wouldn't I just I don't know.
Speaker 2: It seems a little weird, Like if you if you're
Speaker 2: trying to get people interested in the combine, wouldn't it
Speaker 2: kind of add a little little value to have him there,
Speaker 2: the av a Sanders there along with his along with
Speaker 2: his brother.
Speaker 3: A serious question? Yeah, I'm serious? Yeah, you think.
Speaker 5: That's gonna move the needle one way.
Speaker 2: Well, I just like, why would you not invite him
Speaker 2: to the combine? It's it's a little kind of strange
Speaker 2: to me.
Speaker 3: I mean, he's if he's if he could still possibly
Speaker 3: be drafted, Like, why wouldn't.
Speaker 4: Mean there's a lot of players who could possibly be
Speaker 4: drafted that are not invited to the combine.
Speaker 3: Listen, just asking them the question?
Speaker 4: Why just say what you want to say instead of
Speaker 4: asking questions?
Speaker 5: You want to say on your hands what you want
Speaker 5: to say?
Speaker 3: Are you guys not listening? Are you are you not listening?
Speaker 3: We're listening.
Speaker 5: Why would you want to slap it around? Go ahead,
Speaker 5: go ahead, say what you.
Speaker 3: Want to say.
Speaker 2: Why not bring in somebody who you know is going
Speaker 2: to generate some more.
Speaker 3: Who's the somebody?
Speaker 6: Sand Okay, what's that connected to?
Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 2: If he could still possibly be drafted, why would you
Speaker 2: not bring him in? If this is an event, why
Speaker 2: would you not bring him in to try and generate
Speaker 2: more buzz and more attention to the event.
Speaker 6: Does that generate more I'm with you on this. Does
Speaker 6: that generate more buzz and more attention to the event? Yes,
Speaker 6: it does, Yes, because he's shallow Sanders, Yes, I mean,
Speaker 6: I guess if you follow on that side of reasoning,
Speaker 6: then there's some merit to or some value to what
Speaker 6: you're saying. I mean, but I don't know that shallow
Speaker 6: Sanders is going to.
Speaker 3: Move the needle of what the like.
Speaker 6: I'm going to tune in this day specifically so that
Speaker 6: I can watch how shallow Sanders performs.
Speaker 5: There's two things people watch.
Speaker 4: They watch the quarterbacks throw, and they watch the forty
Speaker 4: yard dash.
Speaker 5: So is shalloh Sanders.
Speaker 4: Gonna set a record at the forty yard dash at
Speaker 4: the combine or now that he's not invited at his
Speaker 4: pro day? Probably not. There's nothing wrong with that. It's
Speaker 4: not saying he won't get drafted. But whoever puts this
Speaker 4: all together doesn't deem him to be one of the
Speaker 4: guys that is the greatest likelihood of getting drafted. So
Speaker 4: someone else is taking that spot.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 4: What's more interesting is the fact that more athletes don't
Speaker 4: do what he's doing. They're not trying to utilize the
Speaker 4: same timing and technology for the forty yard dash, which
Speaker 4: would be like a stamp of approval, right, because you
Speaker 4: get a lot of forty yard dashes and you're like, well,
Speaker 4: it's not his pro DA.
Speaker 5: How legitimate was it?
Speaker 3: That's what everybody says.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and so that's one unique thing that he's doing
Speaker 4: that if you can't be at the combine, but you
Speaker 4: can have a piece of it at least to measure
Speaker 4: how fast you're running, how higher jumping, all those all
Speaker 4: those metrics and data points, at least make it so
Speaker 4: you can be as certified and as close to what
Speaker 4: those players who are invited are experience.
Speaker 6: I think the same people that are doing the combine,
Speaker 6: I believe, are the same people that handle the media
Speaker 6: and the coverage of the pro days anyway. So you're
Speaker 6: going to get your value out of if what you're
Speaker 6: saying is correct and accurate. They'll get their value out
Speaker 6: of going to their pro days, and you'll do it there.
Speaker 6: You'll be able to double down on that at at
Speaker 6: Colorado's quotes.
Speaker 2: I mean, Shiloh, I know you're listening. Let me just
Speaker 2: know that I support you. You know, I can't speak
Speaker 2: for everybody on this show, but I support you. I
Speaker 2: think you should have been invited. He was screwed over
Speaker 2: and wronged.
Speaker 6: See they're right there. That's called fake, fake support. We
Speaker 6: all know you're a race bit. Yeah, I'm gonna say
Speaker 6: it how it should be said. He was trying to
Speaker 6: make it into something he should have been. He should
Speaker 6: have been invited because he's black.
Speaker 3: Never mind the
