00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 2: at seven fifteen, we get a text from the organizing

158
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 2: committee at six fifty seven. Now it rained the night

159
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 2: before and the fields were very mucky when we actually

160
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 2: played them. Get a text at six fifty seven we

161
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: are delaying the eight o'clock games because of the amount

162
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 2: of rain that we got. Okay, this is at seven

163
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 2: o'clock in the morning and we're supposed to be at

164
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 2: the fields in fifteen minutes. Keep in mind now that

165
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 2: the sky around northern Chicago suburbs is pitch black and

166
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: there's more coming. You pull it up on the radar,

167
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: you can just see more coming. And I'm like, what

168
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 2: are we doing? Like these fields are not going to

169
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 2: be ready to play, like they're not trying out any time, No,

170
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 2: and they're just going to take on more water in

171
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 2: the next two hours, so you're not gonna be able

172
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 2: to play. And for teams like ours, which there was

173
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 2: really no path beyond one game and done, what are

174
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 2: we doing?

175
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 5: Are we?

176
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 2: Are we really going to sit around for this? So

177
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 2: there was an incredible lightning strike, like no update, seven o'clock,

178
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 2: no update, eight o'clock, no update, incredible lightning strike right

179
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 2: at the hotel. I loaded the whole car up, like

180
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 2: we're going to the venue. We're going of the venue.

181
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: Gotta go see what's going on over here. So go

182
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 2: to the venue.

183
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 4: This was the this is us.

184
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 2: I'm gonna share, Gibba, I'll show you the image.

185
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 6: This was the.

186
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 2: Okay, that's one of the fields we're supposed to play on.

187
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 3: Looks like there's a lake. There's a man made lake.

188
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 3: Here's the common area more. Yeah, that's where you're supposed

189
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 3: to stand.

190
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. So I'm like, we're not playing. So

191
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 2: it's like nine thirty. I can't get if. I can't

192
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 2: find anybody in charge. And I understand what you're trying

193
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 2: to do. When you're running a major youth tournament. You're

194
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 2: trying to get all the games in. You're trying to

195
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 2: crown champions. That's what people came for.

196
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 3: Crowning champions, collecting the.

197
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 5: Money that too.

198
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 2: But I think they'd probably already their vendors would have

199
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,319
Speaker 2: been pissed off to cancel because then they wouldn't have

200
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 2: gotten their money. Sure, but everybody else had already paid

201
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 2: your admissions. You're parking all of that. So no update,

202
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 2: no update. I'm just going like, it's abundantly clear we're

203
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,719
Speaker 2: not gonna play, and so I'm like, let's get let's go, Like,

204
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 2: let's just start heading south. If they have to play,

205
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 2: we'll come back, but I mean, I'm gonna roll the

206
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 2: dice that we're gonna not play. So I get about

207
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,839
Speaker 2: a half hour forty five minutes outside of the venue,

208
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 2: south back towards home, and I get a message saying

209
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 2: there's a new schedule. And what they decided to do

210
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 2: is they decided to play games on turf. They found turf,

211
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 2: they found another high school, they found some turf fields. Okay,

212
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 2: perfect makes sense. Now NBC's team, because they weren't one

213
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 2: of the top four seeds, they basically the top four seeds,

214
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 2: and then they played in bracket and everybody else who

215
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 2: was supposed to play was gone. So NBC's team was done.

216
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 2: They're done. So it's nine thirty. I'm like one for one.

217
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 2: Then I get a notification Beamsy's team, which is playing

218
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 2: for nothing, is instead of playing at eight o'clock in

219
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 2: the morning, is gonna play at twelve forty five. Now

220
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 2: it's nine to forty five. I'm forty five minutes south

221
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 2: of the thing. And because of something that ety knows

222
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 2: very well, we had changed up some deals with Buddy

223
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 2: Garritty because we had to get home to him because

224
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 2: we had changed some Then it was finite. So here's

225
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 2: what you're weighing. Do we go home we're forty five

226
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 2: minutes of six hours in and because we have the

227
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 2: dog situation where we got to go get back to him,

228
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,839
Speaker 2: or do we turn around, try to find some other

229
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 2: help with the dog and play a meaningless game at

230
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 2: twelve forty five and instead of getting home at you know,

231
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 2: four thirty five o'clock, get home at nine thirty ten o'clock. Sure,

232
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 2: which choice do you make? Give me?

233
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 3: There's no way that he's going to play more than

234
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 3: one game, only one.

235
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 2: There was no way for it, and it was twenty

236
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 2: six minute, no half, no halftime, twenty six minute running clock.

237
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 2: There was no chance for them to play a game

238
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 2: other than one.

239
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 3: Goodbye.

240
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,839
Speaker 2: So that's where I was now because we had to

241
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 2: get back to buddy. That really made it an easy decision,

242
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 2: because we needed to but that was mine. And I

243
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 2: would just say to people running these tournaments, like, I

244
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 2: understand you're worried about the top the kids trying to

245
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,439
Speaker 2: hang banners, but there are upon hundreds of parents and

246
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 2: kids whose days are also affected that you need to

247
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 2: take into consideration. And by and large, most most parents

248
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 2: just want to go home, especially you have a long drive,

249
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 2: like we're six hours, Like I had no interest in

250
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 2: being there any longer. If we're playing for a title, okay, fine,

251
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:16,319
Speaker 2: let's go see.

252
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:16,599
Speaker 5: What we can do.

253
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: But there was no way to advance. It was a

254
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 2: one and done situation. So we drove home. Beamsy was

255
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 2: in tears. But I'm like, we had the dog situation,

256
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 2: like we got to go.

257
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 5: I had to do it.

258
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 3: That was it.

259
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 2: So that's the way that that worked out. A couple

260
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 2: of the things on Chicago. I had never been to

261
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:36,319
Speaker 2: Northwestern before, Okay, so I want to go. So it

262
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 2: is so they didn't play every year because they were

263
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 2: in different divisions of the Big Tens. They didn't play

264
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 2: every year. When I was traveling with Ohio State everywhere,

265
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 2: and the one time that I was scheduled to go

266
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 2: there Beamsy was born, I got pulled off for that year.

267
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 2: So that was the one year that I was set

268
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 2: to go over there and cover it and didn't. So

269
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,599
Speaker 2: I'd never been over there, and so we'd go to

270
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 2: the play, go to the campus, beautiful campus. The amount

271
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,599
Speaker 2: of money that they've thrown into athletics, it's hard to

272
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 2: wrap your head around. They have an indoor football facility

273
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 2: that's right on the water, like Michigan. Pretty sweet, stunning.

274
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 2: They have their own private beach that's right next to that.

275
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 2: That's like a sand beach that's right by the football facility.

276
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 2: They're building the basketball. Brand new basketball's there they've got,

277
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 2: But what the reason that? So it's a stunning kit.

278
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,199
Speaker 2: If you haven't been, it's beautiful. You can see this

279
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 2: downtown from there. It's awesome. What blew my mind, though,

280
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,679
Speaker 2: is the field that they're going to play five Big

281
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 2: ten games on this season. You could fit inside Buyer's Field.

282
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, what is it gonna hold fifteen thousand? There was

283
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 3: an article this morning.

284
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 2: Okay, if it's gonna hold fifteen where are they going

285
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 2: to park?

286
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 5: Where?

287
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 2: Because there's about four rows of stands on the side

288
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 2: closest to the water. They're still building the stands opposite

289
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 2: the water. That's probably at most no more than ten rows.

290
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 2: There's an end zone area that looks like it seats

291
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 2: maybe thirty five hundred four thousand. That's the biggest set

292
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 2: of stands in totality. There's no place to park. There

293
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 2: are may be fifty spots and everything else. You're in

294
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 2: the center of campus. Like, it's a really smart place.

295
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 2: I'm sure they've thought of it, but it's going to

296
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 2: be a logistical nightmare, even if it's fifteen Yeah.

297
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 3: So there is an article out this morning.

298
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 2: I didn't know that incredible time.

299
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,600
Speaker 3: It said inside Northwestern's new but temporary football stadium. Yep,

300
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 3: fifteen thousand.

301
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 2: Well it ain't that now, No, you're still building.

302
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: No, Like, there's the picture of the scaffolding.

303
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it. So that's the end zone.

304
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 3: I mean, it's right on the lake. It's beautiful suite.

305
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 3: It's really cool. Northwestern has not finalized plans for where

306
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 3: to play its home games in twenty four and twenty five.

307
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 3: During the eight hundred dollars million eight hundred million dollar

308
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 3: rebuild of Ryan Field, an alternative emerged Broach by Pats.

309
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 3: It's gerald.

310
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: It's a cool place.

311
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 3: School would build a temporary structure around it's on campus

312
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 3: soccer lacrosse stadium using an outdoor football practice field.

313
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 2: So that's what it is. It is. It is the

314
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 2: lacrosse field. It's the closest to the water. There is

315
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 2: no space around it. I mean it's really Now they're

316
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 2: playing Indiana, they're playing a duke they're playing a couple

317
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 2: of non conference patsies, and then they are playing they

318
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 2: are playing Wisconsin there. Though they're playing Wisconsin there and

319
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 2: Duke is decent, They're playing Wisconsin there. That is not

320
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 2: far from Madison to there. Now they will take over

321
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 2: that university correcture like it's tiny. I mean it's tiny,

322
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 2: Like there's no question, like Paul Brown, like there's so

323
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 2: many in our state high school level that would annihilate

324
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 2: it from size.

325
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 5: So it says.

326
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:55,160
Speaker 3: The university greenlit the temporary stadium in early April, but

327
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 3: Wildcats will play most of their twenty four and twenty

328
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 3: five home games, including several big time contest at the

329
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 3: Revent facility, just yards from the shores of Lake Michigan.

330
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 3: The team will play its first five home contest, including

331
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 3: Indiana and Wisconsin, at the temporary stadium, before finishing with

332
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 3: Ohio State in Illinois at Wrigley Field.

333
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, which I thought was wild because there is

334
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 2: a football field in Chicago, Like, I mean, could you

335
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 2: not play.

336
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 3: It soldiering of awful renovations?

337
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,560
Speaker 2: True, right, but like you could have played there? Yeah,

338
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 2: And it said you're gonna do Wrigley where there was

339
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 2: one bowl game where they had to just go one way,

340
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 2: everybody went that way.

341
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.

342
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 2: I don't know how that's going to go. I'm happy

343
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 2: for Buckeyes because it'd be pretty cool to play at Wrigley.

344
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 2: I'm not happy for Skip Mossak and the guys on

345
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 2: the Buckeye Network because that's going to be a beast.

346
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 4: In there.

347
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 3: I would think, correct, Yeah, not not ideal. Yeah, so

348
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 3: I mean that literally, that story came out this morning.

349
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,200
Speaker 3: I was like, well, that looks pretty cool. What if

350
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 3: bo got a chance to go over there? We did,

351
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 3: clearly did.

352
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 2: I am a If I am in a town that

353
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 2: has a major university that I have not seen, I

354
00:16:59,280 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 2: will go see it.

355
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 5: I am.

356
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 2: I am endlessly fascinated by how they build them, what

357
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: the emphasis is, what makes it unique. I think they're

358
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:08,880
Speaker 2: all really cool.

359
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 3: So I'm in So what will ultimately this stadium have

360
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 3: from a capacity?

361
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 2: Will it go back the new Ryan Field? So they're

362
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 2: like they say they're doing a renovation, it's a total rebuild.

363
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,160
Speaker 2: I think the only thing they kept was the press box.

364
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 2: Everything else is starting from scratch. My hunches they would

365
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 2: be somewhere between forty five and fifty I can't imagine

366
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 2: you'd want to be bigger than that. I'll look it up,

367
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 2: but I can't imagine.

368
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 3: I was gonna say that. I know University of Illinois

369
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 3: is like sixty.

370
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 2: Yes, oh, they're going even smaller. They're going thirty five

371
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 2: thirty five thousand.

372
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 3: Which is not I mean a couple of years ago

373
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 3: when we played the Chargers at that temporary at the

374
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 3: soccer stadium, it was thirty thousand. It looks sweet, It

375
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 3: looks sweet. That looks better than what the Bears are

376
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 3: playing in.

377
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 2: Yes, yes it does, it does. Yeah, but it's also

378
00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 2: going to be thirty five thousand's got to be the

379
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 2: smallest power or five stadiumnless, Vanderbilts is smaller.

380
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Wallace Wade's.

381
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 2: Bigger than that at Duke, Like, there's can't be any Yeah,

382
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 2: it's bigger than thirty five.

383
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 5: It's got to be.

384
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 2: I mean that's like a one double a like University

385
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,119
Speaker 2: of Montana's around that. So that's that's got to be.

386
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 2: That's the smallest. But I'm sure their idea is, look,

387
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 2: we can't sell it. We're sick of being the highest

388
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 2: state place here. Anytime a state school's plays here. If

389
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 2: we go small, maybe we can keep the demand high,

390
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 2: and we can do it. Evanston was very charming. I

391
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 2: was also just a wash in nostalgia driving around these

392
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 2: northern suburbs of Chicago, and I couldn't pinpoint why, but

393
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 2: it all felt so familiar and I hadn't been around

394
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,840
Speaker 2: that area too much and certainly not in a very

395
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 2: long time. And then it hit me as we were

396
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 2: driving near Evanstone and we drove up onto the Home

397
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:50,360
Speaker 2: Alone house and you went, and I went, oh, that's right,

398
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 2: Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Breakfast Club, sixteen candles, home Alone,

399
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 2: they're all John Hughes, They're all northern suburbs of Chicago.

400
00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 5: So it was like then it all.

401
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I know that, that's there, that's there.

402
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 2: It all locked in. So it was a little bit

403
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 2: of nostalge on that side of it. With so you

404
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 2: got to see the home Alone house. It was right

405
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 2: near right near Northwestern perfect kids got to know what

406
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 2: that is. Yes, yeah, they were abundantly aware of Okay, yeah,

407
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 2: so that was pretty cool.

408
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 3: So bookstore visit, nob did the bookstore.

409
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 2: We did the bookstore visit, and Bootsy was trying to

410
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 2: decide between a T shirt and his one million stuffy

411
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 2: he Went T shirt, which I thought was a sound investment.

412
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 3: All the time.

413
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 2: One last thing I'll say about this, the uh that

414
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 2: skyline is undefeated. And when you see it, we went

415
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 2: ninety right through it. So when you see it from

416
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 2: the south or from the north, either way, they just

417
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 2: got it right. Like it's just an American marvel to

418
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 2: have the Sears Tower on one end, the Hancock on

419
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 2: the other, and just everything in between. Yeah, it's crushed.

420
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,159
Speaker 2: It's absolutely crushed.

421
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 3: I love Chicago. I wish they'd get their act together

422
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,880
Speaker 3: from the whole crime standpoint.

423
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 2: I tell you what you wish you could get their

424
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 2: act together on is their highways, because I don't know.

425
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 3: Two you went, you were going west last time, you

426
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 3: got went north, this time straight through, and.

427
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 2: You were in on We got in later. So it

428
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 2: was okay, Like we kept moving. It wasn't nearly as

429
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 2: bad as the Rockford trip. And then Sunday morning it

430
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 2: was relatively smooth. But like there's stuff like on ninety

431
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 2: where there's like an entire lane that has pylons in

432
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,399
Speaker 2: it and there's no work being done. There is no

433
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 2: construction crews, there it's just a whole lane that's not

434
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 2: being used. And there's no there's no evidence that there's

435
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 2: any work ever been done there or ever will be done.

436
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 2: It's not like it looks like it's impending. There's not

437
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 2: machinery sitting, there's nothing there. It just closed randomly.

438
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:40,840
Speaker 5: So that's bad.

439
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 2: But that's baby stuff alongside Indiana. I'm gonna tell you this.

440
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 5: Let me tell you this.

441
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 2: There's absolutely nothing I want to do in Indiana. I

442
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 2: know you're a butler boy. God bless the idea that

443
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 2: as soon as you go from Illinois to Indiana, or

444
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 2: Ohio to Indiana on the turnpike and the road goes

445
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 2: from maintained and in pretty good spot to Frogger and

446
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 2: two two lanes in each direction, two lanes out of

447
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 2: Ohio and into Chicago. Two lanes.

448
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 4: What are we doing?

449
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 5: What are we doing?

450
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 2: So one of my biggest pet peeves in the world is,

451
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,479
Speaker 2: and it just happened this morning when way over here

452
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 2: is when people have the easy pass. Uh, when they

453
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 2: go into the easy pass lane and they don't have

454
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,239
Speaker 2: the easy pass, like, I really want to strangle them.

455
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 3: How do you it's illuminated purple green or there's a

456
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 3: purple slash green.

457
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 2: I'd like to go in that.

458
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 3: You can't.

459
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 2: If you're easy pass, you go in any of them. Correct,

460
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 2: you're restricted by nothing. If there is a line with

461
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 2: nobody in it, go through it. You zip up through.

462
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 2: Ohio has finally gotten attack together. We don't have turnstiles

463
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 2: at every turnpike entrance anymore. Correct the way we used to.

464
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,959
Speaker 2: Pennsylvania has been doing this for years, so we finally

465
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 2: got up to speed. Indiana is not up to speed.

466
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 2: They still have the stupid gates. Okay, So every single

467
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 2: one that we hit, every single one, the two trips

468
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 2: and three weekends out there, there have been people in

469
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 2: the easy pass lane stuck, stuck, and I'm yelling at it.

470
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 2: I'm going you should not be in that lane, and

471
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 2: they tell you, sure, that's exactly how you said it

472
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 2: to The kids may have had a cuss counter on me.

473
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 2: So you have the easy pass right, Let's act pretend

474
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 2: if for those watching on the YouTube, you.

475
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 3: Have the hold right, So some people you'll see people

476
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 3: do this.

477
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 2: You'll see people do this. They're this all of it.

478
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 2: So I'm a rule follower. So when I got the

479
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 2: easy pass, they said take these two adhesive velcrow put

480
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 2: them on your windshield and stick it in there. Guess

481
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 2: how many easy pass issues I've had in my life

482
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 2: doing that? None, not once has it never not got

483
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 2: it gets it every time you follow the rules on that,

484
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 2: it gets it. This sometimes my wife used to do this.

485
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 3: Oh my wife. We were yesterday going to see eighty.

486
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,640
Speaker 3: Yeah you know, I'm like, where's your past? She goes,

487
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 3: I lent it to one of the kids. I just

488
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 3: got it back, so she's hold but she knows where

489
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,120
Speaker 3: If you just hold it right underneath the mirror.

490
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 2: It always works, it does. You have to be steadydow.

491
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 2: You got to have it up there though. It's got

492
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 2: to be touching the window almost. So when we went

493
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 2: out there two weeks three weeks ago, my wife didn't

494
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 2: have it velcrode in the car, and I was nervous

495
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 2: because I don't want it to be me correct, you know,

496
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 2: everybody out there, and it's like, what people going, you idiot?

497
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 5: What happened?

498
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 2: I'm like, No, I got an easy path first one

499
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 2: over the Skyway coming out of Chicago into Indiana, and

500
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 2: again it's two lane, and then they got ten gates.

501
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,199
Speaker 2: So it's just a mess, just a mess, and.

502
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 3: Then because that makes all the sense in the world.

503
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 2: So I see a guy who's an easy pass, who's

504
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 2: a toll operator Indiana gentleman, and he's walking across one

505
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 2: turn stole to the next.

506
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 3: Perfect.

507
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 2: Okay, So the timing is going to work where and

508
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 2: I'm in I'm first into the easy pass. The timing's

509
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 2: going to work where I have a decision to make.

510
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 2: Do I let him cross in front of me? Or

511
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,720
Speaker 2: do I go through hit the easy pass? And I'm gone.

512
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,080
Speaker 2: Now at this point, we've taken my wife's and we

513
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 2: have put it on the window, so it's where it's

514
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 2: supposed to be. Sure, I'm in a good mood. Got

515
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 2: through Chicago pretty good. Getta get home at a decent hour.

516
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 2: I let him walk in front. He walks in front.

517
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 2: I go in front of the gate. It does not

518
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 2: as I go, I look back and there's the cars

519
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,440
Speaker 2: are starting to stack, and I'm going, I don't know

520
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 2: what what do I do? So he's close enough, I go, sir, sir,

521
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 2: and he looks at me and makes eye contact and

522
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 2: he keeps walking. I go, oh my god, what have

523
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 2: we done? How do we get this? So now at

524
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,440
Speaker 2: this point I can't get a ticket, Like you could

525
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 2: push a ticket and you could get it and that

526
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 2: would open it and I'll deal with it at the

527
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 2: next place and then I'm fine with it. Oh no, no, no, no,

528
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 2: that was past. We're sitting there. People behind me are honking.

529
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,239
Speaker 2: I'm getting the bird. I'm telling the kids. A lot

530
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 2: of people think I'm number one, But then I look over.

531
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 5: It's not just me.

532
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 2: This guy did the whole row. He screwed everybody. He

533
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:54,680
Speaker 2: screwed everybody, so there were ten lanes. He's easy pass

534
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 2: and pay credit whatever all stopped. I hate my job,

535
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 2: so I'm going take it out on every single person.

536
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 2: Oh my god, dude, they're the line of people was

537
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: into the free they were forty deep at everyone. Then finally,

538
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: like randomly, all of them went green. So he just

539
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 2: made it right. I'm guessing, dude. If now, I'm gonna

540
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 2: be back in Indiana this week, so gona be careful

541
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 2: go to Indianapolis this weekend.

542
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, but there's no tolls.

543
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,959
Speaker 2: No, there's no tolls. But it's still me and Indiana

544
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 2: and we don't get along. But the the idea being

545
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 2: like that state is the worst.

546
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 3: I don't I don't understand how they cannot get this fixed.

547
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 2: You can't boots. He goes, Dan, are you sure it's

548
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 2: worth the North Dakota. I'm like, yes, it's worth the

549
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 2: North Dakota, North Dakota, North Dakota. The speed limit is

550
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 2: probably eighty five go run freely. Every other state in

551
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,360
Speaker 2: the Union you can figure out a toll except Indiana.

552
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 2: They're the only one can't do it. They have the

553
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 2: they have the middle of the freeway and we're not

554
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 2: even on an exit.

555
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 3: And you're paying what do you what are you dollars

556
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 3: give you? It's certainly not road up grade.

557
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 2: My theory is that all of the tax dollars in

558
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 2: indian Indiana goes to the Indianapolis Convention Center in the JW.

559
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 2: Marion and probably this athletic complex that I got to

560
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,719
Speaker 2: go to this weekend, this Westfield place. Uh, these are

561
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,880
Speaker 2: the This is where I think all of the money

562
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 2: for tax money goes in Indiana.

563
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 3: So where you're going to that giant cop right? Yeah,

564
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 3: Westfield car You should reach out to Yellowstone. I bet

565
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:25,439
Speaker 3: you can.

566
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 2: He can get you a parking pass. Oh that's right, Yeah,

567
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,479
Speaker 2: that's where they hold training camp. Maybe he can get

568
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 2: you a tour.

569
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:34,360
Speaker 5: That's a good idea.

570
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 2: Kids might like that little tour of the Colts. I

571
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,240
Speaker 2: forgot he's right there. Yeah, so that's where he works

572
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 2: out of Yeah, oh, I will do that. I'll reach

Speaker 3: what normal teams do in the preseason. The final game

587
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,600

Speaker 3: jump back home. First time going to Chicago. I'm excited.

00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 3: lane a lane for us. I mean, we got from

596
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,600

597
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 3: and I mean everybody you want to talk about being

598
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:59,400

599
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 3: us twenty five minutes from O'Hare to downtown. Oh my god,

600
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 3: in the middle of the afternoon. However, I'm sitting behind

601
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 3: the bus driver. I have my own seat. Deeke is

602
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,000

603
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 3: he and I are talking and we're hanging out. Occasionally

604
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 3: a car comes into the lane. Bus drivers are laying

605
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 3: on horns, working through out of nowhere. Bus driver goes, everybody,

606
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 3: brace for impact. Come on, excuse me now, I mean,

607
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 3: what's your first instinct, Not to brace for impact, but

608
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:36,160
Speaker 3: to look at.

609
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 5: Bang.

610
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 3: Guy goes, the car stops, the bus, pushes the car

611
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 3: out of the way and keeps right out going, and

612
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 3: he goes in a motorcade. In the state of Illinois,

613
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 3: it's illegal to get into a motorcade. I have every

614
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 3: right to push him out. He goes, We're gonna do

615
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 3: it again. I've watched three buses take out cars and

616
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 3: the cops wrote those people up with tickets. Come on, Nope,

617
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 3: obscure law.

618
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 5: How would anybody know that.

619
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 3: In a you are not allowed to get into a

620
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 3: motorcade of any kind, whether it's a funeral procession or

621
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 3: anything like, you can't interfere in a police motorcade.

622
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 2: Is that the rule here?

623
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 3: I don't think so, because I it's not the rule

624
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:23,719
Speaker 3: in thirty one other cities.

625
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 2: I mean, that's unbelievable.

626
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 3: Did just have buses going bang, pushing a car off

627
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 3: into the side and just keep right on going, and

628
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 3: the and the bus driver laughing the whole time. Dee's laughing,

629
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 3: des everybody's loving it. I'm like, what is going on?

630
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:41,400
Speaker 6: Like?

631
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 3: Are we going to jail? Am I going to be

632
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 3: a witness to this? I don't have time for this?

633
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's ridiculous.

634
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I guess there's some law that you can't

635
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 3: get anybody know that. It's so obscure.

636
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 2: Who would look that up? That's not a driver's test correct?

637
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. Yeah.

638
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 3: Brace for impact. One of the greatest things i've ever

639
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 3: heard on a road.

640
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 2: Did they get that sorted out if they're going to

641
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 2: stay in downtown or they're going to go to the suburbs.

642
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 3: No, they have not.

643
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've seen like imaging of like what it could

644
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 2: look like for the eleventh hour.

645
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 3: It looks like they're gonna right now. It looks like

646
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 3: they're gonna stay downtown and build something new. But I

647
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 3: don't I don't know.

648
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, it's I've had my fill. I enjoyed a

649
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,200
Speaker 2: great deal. It's a great town. I just if I

650
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 2: if I worked there and had to go into the city,

651
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 2: I would just live in the city. Yep, even with

652
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 2: a family, like I just deal with it. I couldn't.

653
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 3: There are schools in the city.

654
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I'm looking back, I mean looking in and

655
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 2: out on Friday night, just seeing everything converging on downtown.

656
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 2: I'm like, this is nuts. You'd spend two hours every

657
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 2: day in the car trying to get anywhere, or.

658
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 3: You spend an hour on the train.

659
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

660
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 3: One I had. I had a program director friend, she

661
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 3: that I worked with when I first started in radio,

662
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 3: and she became the PD for a station in in Chicago,

663
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 3: and her commute every day was like an hour to

664
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 3: ninety minutes on the train to and from to and from.

665
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 3: I'm like, how do you get anything done? Oh? You

666
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 3: just bring your laptop.

667
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 2: Work on the train, I guess is what you do?

668
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 6: What?

669
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 2: Yeah?

670
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 5: Wild?

671
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 3: No, absolutely wild?

672
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 2: Also wild that Nick Chubb can squat five eighty five

673
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 2: is that.

674
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 3: I believe we have a video, Jordan, you have a

675
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 3: video of this. I think we actually there. It is

676
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 3: maybe uh oh moment eight months after surgery. Look at

677
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 3: the bar before he even lifts it.

678
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 2: So they're designed that way to bend with that type

679
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 2: of weight.

680
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 3: But oh my god, I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you

681
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 3: there is no need for that young man to be

682
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 3: lifting that. You're going to tell him no, I'm not

683
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 3: going to tell him now. In no way, shape or

684
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 3: form am I telling him no? But I don't understand, Like,

685
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 3: don't you reach a certain max point where it's like

686
00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:00,160
Speaker 3: I don't want you to harm yourself? That's crazy? Eight

687
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 3: months after surgery.

688
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, look here, God, this is unbelievable. No one would

689
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 2: ever doubt Nick Chubb.

690
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 5: Correct.

691
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 2: But it's not going to be that. It's going to

692
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,800
Speaker 2: be left right, it's going to be cutting. It's going

693
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 2: to be I know he can run. I know he's

694
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 2: gonna be able to do this. It's just going to

695
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 2: be can you get that same shift when you're in

696
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 2: a hole and somebody's in it, can you pop left?

697
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 2: That will be the thing where he's gonna have to

698
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 2: build up the trust. But if we have him at

699
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 2: seventy percent of what he was for and eventually working towards,

700
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 2: my hunch is if he can continue to stay healthy

701
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 2: that by the end of the season, he could be

702
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 2: really close to what he used to be. Sure, you know,

703
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 2: but that's that's down the road and you need a

704
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 2: little luck along the way as well. But that's that's

705
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 2: such good news to see him doing that. Yes, five

706
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 2: eighty five, God almighty.

707
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 3: That's These guys are doing the math. They're looking, They're like,

708
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 3: all right, the bar's forty five. Yeah, how many forty

709
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 3: fives does he have on each side? Yeah?

710
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 2: That's nuts. Just like okay, easy, buddy, Yeah.

711
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 3: Like, let's just build it up and let's work on

712
00:32:59,200 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 3: the left.

713
00:32:59,600 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 5: Right.

714
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 2: That's how that's him, though, Man, no one's telling him no.

Speaker 2: a second.

730
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:04,960
Speaker 3: How did they play that game?

731
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:08,800
Speaker 2: It was two hours and twenty two minutes delayed. I

732
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 2: guess that from the reading about it looks like they

733
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 2: just got rushed, Like everybody just rushed in, people who

734
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 2: had tickets and who didn't.

735
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 3: I watched people crawl in through air ducks.

736
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:18,879
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.

737
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 3: That stadium is not one of my favorites to begin with,

738
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:26,760
Speaker 3: but I'm like, where, what is going. It's total anarchy.

739
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 2: It was probably the worst place in America to host

740
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 2: that game. There's no, it's not a secret that the

741
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 2: biggest population of Hispanic people in this country is in

742
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 2: South Florida, correct, And so there are tens of thousands,

743
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:44,479
Speaker 2: of hundreds of thousands of South American expats in that area,

744
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 2: and so you it was really a powder keg of

745
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 2: all of it. Columbia was the people from Columbia obviously

746
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 2: were quite enthused to be playing for a final. Sure,

747
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 2: and it led to it all, but it it does

748
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 2: call into we had we didn't. This did not go

749
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 2: well for us hosting this Copa America. Like a lot

750
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 2: of the stadiums were trash, the turf was garbage, complained

751
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 2: about consistently. And now this thing that happened in the

752
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,919
Speaker 2: final and in the semi finally had the Uruguay guys

753
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 2: going into the stands to fight Columbian fans.

754
00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:12,760
Speaker 6: Eyewitness videos.

755
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, so but that's where that's where it was. Just

756
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 2: it was just an awful look of it, for sure.

757
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:23,320
Speaker 2: All of that.

758
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:24,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't.

759
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 3: And this is the tune up for the World Cup.

760
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, this was the Copa America. This is

761
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 2: the championship of our hemisphere.

762
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and we're hosting World Cup in two years.

763
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 2: Yeah it's US Mexico.

764
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, guys, it was bad, keV. I don't like. I

765
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 3: don't understand. Again, I don't understand how they got everybody out.

766
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,319
Speaker 3: And then people were like, there are fans that are

767
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 3: squatting in their seats. There are people that paid like

768
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 3: fifteen k. It was an expensive ticks.

769
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 2: Two thousand dollars ticket. The other thing that was crazy

770
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 2: is like they were going section by section trying to

771
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,439
Speaker 2: physically remove people who didn't have tickets. And other problem

772
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,680
Speaker 2: with this is now that every and we do it

773
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,399
Speaker 2: every This is how you do it now. Every every

774
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,320
Speaker 2: ticket's on a phone. But the problem with every ticket

775
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 2: on a phone is with screenshotting and with all of

776
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 2: that other stuff. Yes, it's one barcode, but who knows

777
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 2: how something gets shared around and how it ends up

778
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 2: to you. You're buying a second a ticket, secondhand, third hand.

779
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 2: What's the validity of it? The old days, you tear

780
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:22,720
Speaker 2: a ticket, Okay, physically.

781
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 3: I tore a ticket.

782
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 5: You can go in.

783
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, and if you like, similar to your little adventures

784
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 3: on the turnpike, if you get backed up. Yeah, and

785
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, the ticket taker who's just overwhelmed.

786
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 3: It's like, just go ahead, I'm assuming you have tickets.

787
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. It was as big a mess as you're gonna have.

788
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was happening out of nowhere, like last night,

789
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,360
Speaker 3: because I'm like, I'm gonna turn over and see what,

790
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 3: you know, see what's going on, And there was nothing,

791
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 3: and I'm like, what are we delayed? Maybe it's a

792
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 3: weather situation down there.

793
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 5: I don't I don't know.

794
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 3: And then they were like, no, it's just the entire

795
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 3: stadium was overrun by people who didn't have tickets entirely.

796
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:04,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, So that was an absolute mess of things. Argentina

797
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 2: ends up winning, and so there you're going, you'll have

798
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 2: the World Cup here in a couple of years. This morning,

799
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 2: it was announced that Good Morning Football will be back

800
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 2: on television July twenty ninth. The studio show relocated from

801
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 2: New York to La Jamie Erdaal, Peter Scheger, Kyle brandt

802
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 2: achbar Baja Mia Mia, and he replaces Jason mccordy. And

803
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 2: then there's another female I think who's on it too

804
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 2: correct whose name escapes. But so this is here, there's

805
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 2: a big sea change here. This show is going to

806
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 2: air now from eight to ten Eastern. So this show

807
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 2: was seven to nine Cherry Burris, Cherry Burris. So this

808
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 2: was a seven to nine show when it started, right,

809
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 2: seven to nine?

810
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 5: Is that what it was?

811
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,320
Speaker 2: Was it three hours? Was it seven to ten or

812
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:46,879
Speaker 2: seven to nine?

813
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 3: I think it was ten. I think it was three hours?

814
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 2: Is it seven to ten? So whatever, it was East Eastern?

815
00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 2: And they filmed it in New York City. They are

816
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 2: now going to film it in Los Angeles live eight

817
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,040
Speaker 2: to ten doing the Math State School again. That's five

818
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 2: am start time. That means a wake up call around

819
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 2: three probably for all anybody on and from a talent perspective,

820
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 2: people behind the scenes are probably coming in at eleven

821
00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 2: o'clock at night, quite hoetly ten eleven o'clock at night.

822
00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 2: So it's now become a morning show, truly in that

823
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 2: sense of the word. So now your life's flipped upside down.

824
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to sleep in the middle of the

825
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 2: day in southern California. That's it. That's a product of

826
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,439
Speaker 2: moving it from East to West.

827
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 3: It's at the NFL network headquarters, and there's gonna be

828
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,120
Speaker 3: some kind of Good Morning Football over time. That will

829
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 3: be a show that strictly airson NFL Plus from ten

830
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 3: am to noon.

831
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 2: Okay, so I'm guessing Kyle will have a lot to

832
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,040
Speaker 2: do with that, and it sounds like him and Schreg

833
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 2: are going to be both in New York and LA.

834
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, which is funny because that's I feel like that's

835
00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 3: why mccordy got left out, as McCarty wasn't willing to

836
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,800
Speaker 3: move to the West Coast. But for this, it's like,

837
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:55,720
Speaker 3: oh yeah, it's fine.

838
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if those guys are going to

839
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 2: move or not. Here's the thing about that show, well,

840
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 2: it is the total audience for that show is not

841
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 2: as big as you would think it to be. If

842
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 2: you were an NFL fan, you would think it would

843
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 2: be hundreds of thousands.

844
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 3: It's not.

845
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:11,120
Speaker 2: It's usually under two hundred thousand, if memory serves. But

846
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 2: the right people are watching that show correct. It's on

847
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 2: in every facility. It's on in every time. Back when

848
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 2: I used to come here in the morning and get

849
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,120
Speaker 2: breakfast and it was on, It's on every television, It's

850
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 2: on omnipresent in every facility you go to the combine,

851
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 2: it's on all the time in NFL circles. That is

852
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 2: a rock star show. So there's a disproportionate view of

853
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:35,320
Speaker 2: how important it is because while the masses aren't watching it,

854
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,320
Speaker 2: the right people are sure.

855
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 3: It's fascinating to see what happens. Because the NFL network,

856
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 3: as we've talked about, is they've they've gotten rid of

857
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 3: a lot of people. Yeah, they just blew up there

858
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 3: around the NFL podcast.

859
00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 2: No, they did that too.

860
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, they got rid of a couple guys. The one

861
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,359
Speaker 3: who is a regular on our show for a long time.

862
00:39:59,120 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 4: What was his name?

863
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 3: Now, of course I'm forgetting and doing well, Mark Seler,

864
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 3: Sessler's out. Yeah, they they trimmed that down and now

865
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 3: it's like a different podcast. It's been renamed and our

866
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 3: good buddy Nick Shook as part of it, which I'm hell,

867
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:16,320
Speaker 3: that's beautiful.

868
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 2: Yeah.

869
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they continue to make a lot of changes,

870
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 3: and i know, like I was asking today, you know

871
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 3: we're gonna be at the Greenbrier and welcome back to football. Yeah,

872
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,840
Speaker 3: there's that. They normally do a whole weekend and I'm like,

873
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 3: is anybody coming, Like, is Anyville network even covering stuff?

874
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,320
Speaker 3: They got rid of all their reporters.

875
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 2: It's a great question. Are that Yeah, I don't. Yeah,

876
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 2: that that's why I don't know. So I guess is

877
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 2: they knowing how the business works, they probably just went

878
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 2: younger and cheaper across the board. Yeah, it would be

879
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 2: my guess. But that's a big My wife did morning

880
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 2: news for a while and they were on it like

881
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 2: five at for like four thirty or something, four thirty

882
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 2: four to twenty eight some nonsense, and she was a vampire. Yeah,

883
00:40:58,120 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 2: she did it for like six months. She's like, this

884
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 2: is not a way to live.

885
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 3: I can't. No, no, you have to change your whole life.

886
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 2: Yes, yes you do. That's it.

887
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:10,320
Speaker 3: It's and I worked morning drive when I on the

888
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 3: radio side, when I first started in the industry, and

889
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 3: like morning show guy, I've told the story, you know,

890
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,520
Speaker 3: woke up at midnight, yeah, or woke up at eleven

891
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,279
Speaker 3: so we could watch the eleven thirty, the Lenos and

892
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 3: the Letterman's and know what was going on, and then

893
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,879
Speaker 3: like then just started into show prep in the show

894
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 3: and took a nap from like you know, ten or

895
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 3: ten thirty to you know, twelve thirty one o'clock and

896
00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 3: then was awake for like six seven hours and then

897
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,319
Speaker 3: slept for four hours and then it started it all

898
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:38,839
Speaker 3: over again.

899
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,319
Speaker 2: There's no ever getting on calendar either. No, you're never

900
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 2: getting on clock like it's you're just constantly tired.

901
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean from a vacation standpoint, you can't vacation

902
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:48,799
Speaker 3: because by the time you figure out that clock, you're

903
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:49,840
Speaker 3: back to the other one. No.

904
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't even imagine, like when we went out waigh,

905
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:54,520
Speaker 2: when we went to Hawaii, like trying to get back

906
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 2: on that calend. There's bad enough getting on this one.

907
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 2: I can't imagine getting on the other one.

908
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't. I am stand the whole

909
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 3: la thing, but.

910
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 2: I just financially I get it, but I don't understand it.

911
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 2: I understand they're gonna say money on production, rental space

912
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 2: and all that, but I think it's a tough way

913
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:12,520
Speaker 2: to do a morning show.

914
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 3: There's a reason why, like every morning show on a

915
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 3: network TV is.

916
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 2: On the course host. Yeah, of course. Yeah, it's gonna

917
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 2: be pitch dark out there. Speaking of broadcast, Fox has

918
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,439
Speaker 2: released their broadcast teams for the upcoming season, so it'll

919
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 2: be Kevin Burkhart, Tom Brady. They will debut with us

920
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 2: Correct against the Cowboys. So you'll have that Joe Davis

921
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 2: and Greg Olsen team two, Adam Iman and Mark Sanchez

922
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 2: on a team Kenny Albert, Jonathan Vilma, Kevin Coogler and

923
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:41,920
Speaker 2: Darryl Johnson and Chris Myers and Mark Schlareth. Those are

924
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 2: your Fox broadcast teams.

925
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:48,439
Speaker 3: Which I'm fine with all the play by play guys.

926
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,319
Speaker 3: Vilma last year was a little rough. He was very rough. Yeah,

927
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 3: and Moose is a pros pro, he knows what he's doing.

928
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,439
Speaker 2: Sanchez was pretty rough for us. He did not show

929
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 2: that he knew he correct with our game.

930
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 3: I was going to say the fact that those two

931
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 3: are now the third and fourth teamers, yeah worries me

932
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:06,960
Speaker 3: a little bit.

933
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he was. He was not prepared correct.

934
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 3: And remember now like Fox, we could our games could

935
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 3: be on Fox. Yeah, like remember it's oh yeah, it's

936
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 3: kind of a free for all. It totally is a

937
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,680
Speaker 3: couple other news around the league. Jordan Adison arrest for

938
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 3: driving under the influence near the Lax Airport.

939
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,359
Speaker 2: This was on Friday. Previously, in July of twenty twenty three,

940
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 2: Addison was cited for speeding and reckless driving for going

941
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty and a fifty five good grief.

942
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 2: This sincid occurs less than a week after Addison's teammate

943
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 2: Kyrie Jackson was killed in a car crash. Brutal, brutal,

944
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,399
Speaker 2: look across the board and just dumb.

945
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 3: Yes, come on, like you are a professional athlete. Yeah,

946
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 3: we pay someone, pay someone to drive.

947
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 2: I mean, it's so easy now. There's just no excuse

948
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 2: for driving when you're under the influence. There's none. In

949
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 2: the old days, there weren't cabs or you couldn't. There

950
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,879
Speaker 2: was no sure uber, there was none of that. Like again,

951
00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 2: even then there wasn't an excuse. But it's so easy now.

952
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 2: Did not have to deal with this, and sub said

953
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,960
Speaker 2: he was former Ravens wide receiver. Super Bowl forty seven

954
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,799
Speaker 2: star Yacobe Jones passed away yesterday peacefully at his home.

955
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,320
Speaker 2: He was forty known for his heroics during the twenty

956
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 2: twelve postseason with the Ravens defeating the forty nine Ers.

957
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 2: I was at that game. In the game, Jones had

958
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,239
Speaker 2: a fifty six yard receiving touchdown one hundred and eight

959
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 2: yard kick return for a touchdown, which is the longest

960
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,239
Speaker 2: play in Super Bowl history. Was what was the only

961
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 2: I don't know answer right.

962
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,360
Speaker 3: It has not said anything, but the fact that it

963
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:26,759
Speaker 3: said peacefully.

964
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:30,439
Speaker 2: Leads me to believe cancer probably or something of that way.

965
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:31,320
Speaker 1: Forty.

966
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 3: That's he was a hell of a player.

967
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:34,800
Speaker 2: He really was.

968
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:36,120
Speaker 3: He had a little run he did.

969
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,440
Speaker 2: He absolutely did. Were do running backs? Coming up next, Yeah, uh,

Speaker 6: the Browns twenty twenty four season. And we're gonna talk

982
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 6: today about the running back room. And this is a

983
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:24,360
Speaker 6: room that's got some new faces, hopefully the return of

984
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 6: a very familiar face and also a new coach, as

985
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,239
Speaker 6: Duce Staley is now in as the running backs coach,

986
00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:32,919
Speaker 6: and if you're just listening this for the first time,

987
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 6: I would urge you to seek out on social media

988
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 6: or on the Browns YouTube channel our interview with Duce

989
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 6: Staley from right here in this studio, because he is

990
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 6: captivating and he is an incredibly charismatic and powerful and

991
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 6: intense leader, and that's gonna He's gonna bring that to

992
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 6: the running back room. We've already seen that in the

993
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,080
Speaker 6: mini camp and in the off season. Now, are we

994
00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 6: gonna run the ball quite as much as we used

995
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,279
Speaker 6: to in the past, Perhaps not, but we're gonna be

996
00:45:58,320 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 6: more out of shotgun. We're gonna run against a lot

997
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 6: lighter boxes than we have in the past with this

998
00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 6: new offense. It's a combination of Kevin Stefanski and Ken Dorsey,

999
00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 6: and the running back room is going to be a

1000
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 6: huge part of what the Cleveland Browns do because they

1001
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 6: have been one of the best running teams in the

1002
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 6: NFL as long as Kevin Sefanski has been here. Running

1003
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,479
Speaker 6: backs are very important, not only as runners but also

1004
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 6: as pass catchers out of the backfield. They are very

1005
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 6: important in pass protection on some of those key third downs.

1006
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 6: So this is an important room, and it's a room

1007
00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 6: that is I think going to be fun to watch

1008
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 6: because you've got a lot of talent in here, and

1009
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:31,879
Speaker 6: it's going to be interesting sale it all plays out,

1010
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 6: But it all starts and stops right with Nick Chubb.

1011
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:38,200
Speaker 6: Nick Chubb last year was taken out in that game

1012
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 6: against the Pittsburgh Steelers, suffered that horrific knee injury. He's

1013
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 6: been rehabbing ever since. But the time that he was

1014
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 6: injured last year had one hundred and seventy yards and

1015
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,879
Speaker 6: not even three halves of football. He was averaging six

1016
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:51,399
Speaker 6: point one yards per carry and he was looking as

1017
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:54,879
Speaker 6: dominant as ever. And this is a guy, Nick Chubb,

1018
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:57,280
Speaker 6: who is four time Pro Bowler. He made four straight

1019
00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,319
Speaker 6: from nineteen twenty twenty one to twenty two, basically every

1020
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:02,680
Speaker 6: healthy season in the NFL, other than his rookie year

1021
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 6: when he only started nine games. In twenty nineteen, he

1022
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 6: had fourteen hundred ninety four yards eight yards at eight

1023
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 6: touchdowns five yards of carry. Twenty twenty, it was one

1024
00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 6: thousand and sixty seven yards, twelve touchdowns and five point

1025
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 6: six yards of carry in only twelve games. In twenty

1026
00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:19,800
Speaker 6: twenty one, twelve hundred and fifty nine yards, eight touchdowns,

1027
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:21,719
Speaker 6: five and a half yards of carry, and then in

1028
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:25,360
Speaker 6: twenty twenty two, his last full season, fifteen hundred and

1029
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,360
Speaker 6: twenty five yards, a career high, twelve rushing touchdowns again

1030
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:32,920
Speaker 6: and five yards of carry. So Nick Chubb is the

1031
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 6: best running back in the NFL. I wouldn't count out

1032
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 6: Nickchubb in terms of his ability to return from this

1033
00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 6: injury and perhaps even be ready as early as Week one.

1034
00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 6: But while he is, you know, out, the Browns will

1035
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 6: be a committee at the running back position.

1036
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 4: And there's nothing wrong with that. I think you've got

1037
00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 4: a lot of talent in that room.

1038
00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:52,760
Speaker 6: But hopefully when you get Nick Chubb back, and perhaps

1039
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:54,880
Speaker 6: it's week one, perhaps it's week six, perhaps it's we

1040
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,520
Speaker 6: middle of the season, he is going to be a

1041
00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 6: difference maker, because that's what he is. He's averages five

1042
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:02,719
Speaker 6: point three yards per carry for his career.

1043
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:03,520
Speaker 5: He leads the.

1044
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:05,560
Speaker 6: League and runs a ten yards, leads the league and

1045
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,040
Speaker 6: runs a twenty yards basically since he's become a starter,

1046
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 6: you know, prior to getting injured last year, and he

1047
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,040
Speaker 6: was doing it again last season.

1048
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 4: So Nick Chubb is as good as it gets. And

1049
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:16,920
Speaker 4: I love that he and the Browns were able to

1050
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:17,160
Speaker 4: work it.

1051
00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:18,760
Speaker 6: Out so that he would be back with the Cleveland

1052
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 6: Browns for this season and hopefully beyond, and we're all

1053
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,880
Speaker 6: very excited to see him return to form. Now, we

1054
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 6: didn't have Nick Chubb last year, and so your top

1055
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 6: three running backs from a year ago, where Jerome Ford,

1056
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 6: Kareem Hunt, Pierre Strong. Jerome Ford gave you eleven hundred

1057
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,400
Speaker 6: and thirty two yards from scrimmage and nine touchdowns. Kareem

1058
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 6: Hunt gave you four hundred and ninety five yards from

1059
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,800
Speaker 6: scrimmage and nine touchdowns. Pierre Strong gave you three hundred

1060
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,480
Speaker 6: and thirty eight yards from scrimmage and a touchdown. And

1061
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,439
Speaker 6: so if you kind of add all that up, you're

1062
00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:47,320
Speaker 6: basically almost at nineteen hundred total yards and nineteen touchdowns

1063
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 6: from the running back position that did not include Nick Chubb.

1064
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:50,759
Speaker 4: A year ago.

1065
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 6: So if that's a baseline that we're using, that's pretty

1066
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 6: exciting to me. And so we know that Cream Hunt

1067
00:48:57,880 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 6: is no longer with the Cleveland Browns. A boy was

1068
00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 6: great the career high nine rushing touchdowns last year. So

1069
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:05,719
Speaker 6: clutch in short yardage and important situations. Think about the

1070
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 6: fourth down touchdown run against the Indianapolis Colts and that

1071
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 6: dramatic win in Indie last season. He's gone, and so

1072
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,120
Speaker 6: Jerome Ford is back entering his third year. Last year,

1073
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,880
Speaker 6: eight hundred and thirteen yards rushing, four touchdowns, four yards

1074
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,839
Speaker 6: per carry, too many negative runs, though his success rate

1075
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:23,720
Speaker 6: was just thirty nine point seven That was the lowest

1076
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:25,839
Speaker 6: of any of the running backs, but he showed great

1077
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,879
Speaker 6: aptitude out of the backfield forty four catches, three hundred

1078
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,320
Speaker 6: nineteen yards and five receiving touchdowns, which were tied with

1079
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 6: Amari Cooper for second most on the team. So you

1080
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,840
Speaker 6: get Jerome fordback, you get Pierre strongback, and I like

1081
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,279
Speaker 6: Pierre Strong. You guys all know that Pierre Strong last

1082
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:43,279
Speaker 6: year sixty three carries, two hundred ninety one yards, won

1083
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:45,920
Speaker 6: touchdown four point six yards of carry. That was actually

1084
00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,319
Speaker 6: second among all running backs on the team, behind only

1085
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:48,919
Speaker 6: Nick Chubb.

1086
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 4: His success rate.

1087
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:52,680
Speaker 6: Only he and Nick Chubb were over fifty percent last year,

1088
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,360
Speaker 6: So he can tell he's got it in five catches

1089
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,600
Speaker 6: forty seven yards. I think Pierre Strong has a chance

1090
00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:00,320
Speaker 6: to take a real step forward this season, and I

1091
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:02,439
Speaker 6: think he's gonna be a big factor as a kick

1092
00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:05,920
Speaker 6: returner potentially with this new kickoff rule. He's looked very

1093
00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 6: good in mini camps there so I like Pierre Strong.

1094
00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:10,520
Speaker 6: So you got Ford and Pierre Strong, two guys entering

1095
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 6: their third year. You got Nick Chubb, the veteran, and

1096
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,040
Speaker 6: then the Browns brought in another veteran and he will

1097
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:19,719
Speaker 6: wear number twenty seven, just like Kareem Hunt did before him.

1098
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:21,799
Speaker 6: And I'm this is a guy that I am very

1099
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 6: excited about, Deonta Foreman, because Deontay Foreman has been a

1100
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,800
Speaker 6: very productive player when given the chance. Last year with

1101
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,759
Speaker 6: the Bears just nine games, four hundred and twenty five yards,

1102
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:37,360
Speaker 6: four touchdowns, average four yards of carry for his career

1103
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:41,360
Speaker 6: three hundred and twenty six yards, fourteen touchdowns, and he

1104
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 6: has got four point two yards per carry as his

1105
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:45,879
Speaker 6: average thirty four catches, three hundred and forty two yards

1106
00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 6: and three scores. There so's average ten yards a catch

1107
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:51,560
Speaker 6: for his career, so that's not really his fourt's never

1108
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:53,560
Speaker 6: cut more than eleven passes in a season. Actually last

1109
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:55,719
Speaker 6: year was a career high with the eleven catches. But

1110
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 6: Deontay Foreman is a good tough runner. When I talk

1111
00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 6: about you know, getting opportunities. When he's gotten opportunities, he

1112
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 6: has been incredibly productive.

1113
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 4: So what does that mean.

1114
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 6: Well, let's look at the games in his career where

1115
00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 6: he's had the most rushing attempts with Carolina. Back in

1116
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 6: twenty twenty two, thirty one carries ran for one hundred

1117
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 6: and thirty yards and a touchdown against Atlanta against Tennis

1118
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:20,800
Speaker 6: as a member of Tennessee against the Miami Dolphins. In

1119
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,319
Speaker 6: twenty twenty one, twenty six carries one hundred and thirty

1120
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,920
Speaker 6: two yards and a touchdown against Atlanta with the Carolina Panthers,

1121
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:30,800
Speaker 6: twenty six one eighteen and three touchdowns against Denver with Carolina,

1122
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 6: twenty four carries one hundred and thirteen yards against Pittsburgh

1123
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 6: is a member of the Tennessee Titans. Twenty two carries

1124
00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:38,440
Speaker 6: one hundred and eight yards against Houston that same year.

1125
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 6: In twenty twenty one, twenty one carries sixty nine yards,

1126
00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 6: twenty one carries seventy four yards with Carolina against Seattle,

1127
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:48,960
Speaker 6: twenty one for one sixty five against Detroit and a touchdown,

1128
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,799
Speaker 6: twenty one for eighty and a touchdown against uh as

1129
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,239
Speaker 6: a member of Chicago against Carolina a year ago. And

1130
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 6: you go down nineteen carries, he had one hundred nine yards.

1131
00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 6: So if you look at eleven games with nine teen

1132
00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 6: or more carries, in eleven games nineteen more carries, he

1133
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:06,520
Speaker 6: rushed for one hundred yards one two, three, four, five, six,

1134
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,359
Speaker 6: seven out of those eleven he rushed for eighty yards

1135
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,239
Speaker 6: or more. Nine of those eleven he scored in those

1136
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 6: games seven rushing touchdowns, seven one hundred yard games, seven

1137
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 6: rushing touchdowns when he actually was given the football nineteen

1138
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:27,080
Speaker 6: or more times. Deontay Foreman, I think has an opportunity

1139
00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 6: to bring an element to our backfield in this committee

1140
00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 6: situation that you know, we have not quite seen, because yes,

1141
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 6: he can do all the short yarded stuff that we

1142
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 6: saw from Kareem Hunt, but he also can really shoulder

1143
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 6: the load, be a twenty carry guy bell cow. If

1144
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,400
Speaker 6: you need him to, he can take it to the house.

1145
00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 6: He has the ability to break off long runs. So

1146
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:50,719
Speaker 6: I really I I'm very excited about Deontay Foreman. And

1147
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 6: then there's Nahem Heines and Nahem Heinz coming off of

1148
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 6: an injury that cost him all of the twenty twenty

1149
00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 6: two season.

1150
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:58,080
Speaker 4: He's a guy who definitely can run it. He can

1151
00:52:58,160 --> 00:52:58,440
Speaker 4: catch it.

1152
00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 6: For his career twelve hundred two yards rushing, ten touchdowns,

1153
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 6: four yards of carry, receiving two hundred and forty catches

1154
00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 6: seventeen hundred and seventy eight yards, eight touchdowns. So he's

1155
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,640
Speaker 6: been a better receiver out of the backfield than a runner,

1156
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:12,759
Speaker 6: and in fact, started his career with Indianapolis, had at

1157
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 6: least forty catches in four straight seasons, career high sixty

1158
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 6: three for four hundred and eighty two and four touchdowns

1159
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 6: back in twenty twenty. Now, he missed all of the

1160
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,440
Speaker 6: twenty twenty three season with an injury. He is rehabbing,

1161
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:25,439
Speaker 6: He is back, should be good to go for training camp.

1162
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 6: So he offers probably the best pass catching back.

1163
00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:29,319
Speaker 4: On the roster right now.

1164
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,480
Speaker 6: And then Nahem Hines is also a great returner. In

1165
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 6: twenty twenty two, he had two kick returns for a touchdown.

1166
00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 6: He's got two punt returns for his touchdown as well

1167
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 6: back in twenty nineteen with Indianapolis. So this is considered

1168
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 6: to be one of the better return men in the NFL.

1169
00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 6: And he kind of rounds out this room for the

1170
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:49,360
Speaker 6: Cleveland Browns. And so you've got you know, in Jerome

1171
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 6: Ford a guy who can do everything, a little bit

1172
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,360
Speaker 6: of everything right. You got he can run it, he

1173
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 6: can catch it. You've got the explosive nature of a

1174
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,879
Speaker 6: Pierre Strong. You've got the big two hundred and thirty

1175
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:02,960
Speaker 6: pound hammer in Deontay Forman. You've got the returner slash

1176
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,319
Speaker 6: receiver in Nahem Hines. And then you have the best

1177
00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:09,239
Speaker 6: back in the NFL in Nick Chubb. And so when

1178
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:12,839
Speaker 6: he comes back, you're gonna see Nick Chubb being Nick

1179
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:14,840
Speaker 6: Chubb again. And that's what I think is very exciting

1180
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:16,960
Speaker 6: for everybody else. So this is a room where you

1181
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:20,840
Speaker 6: have all the pieces, the power, speed, size, combo and foreman,

1182
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:23,960
Speaker 6: the receiving ability in Hines, the kind of do it

1183
00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:28,360
Speaker 6: all in Jerome Ford, the electric speed in Pierre Strong.

1184
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:30,480
Speaker 6: So a committee trying to do the work of one man.

1185
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 6: But when you get that one man back, I like

1186
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:35,520
Speaker 6: the depth here. Not to mention, you also have some

1187
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:37,279
Speaker 6: other guys gonna be battling to make this team, or

1188
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,959
Speaker 6: at least make the practice squad. Here John Kelly, who's

1189
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:42,360
Speaker 6: been on the practice squad for many, many years, and

1190
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,880
Speaker 6: then Aiden Robbins, who's an undrafted free agent out of

1191
00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 6: by you. Another big guy like foreman six foot two

1192
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 6: thirty five. He's six two two thirty seven, so another

1193
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 6: young hammer who was very productive in college. So that's

1194
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 6: the running back room. I expect a committee and we'll

1195
00:54:56,640 --> 00:54:58,520
Speaker 6: kind of see how those roles will be fleshed out.

1196
00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:00,640
Speaker 6: But I expect a committee here in this first, you know,

1197
00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 6: until Nick Chubb returns, and then he'll probably be be

1198
00:55:03,640 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 6: easies back into things, and then hopefully by the end

1199
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:08,719
Speaker 6: of the year, it's Nick Chubb, the Nicholas Jamal Chubb

1200
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 6: that we all remember, the four time Pro bowler guy

1201
00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 6: who is always a threat to lead the league in

1202
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:15,680
Speaker 6: rushing every single year. So that's a look at the

1203
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 6: Browns running back room. And we'll be back with more

1204
00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:20,280

1220
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:18,600
Speaker 2: this now with several of the position groups, and we're

1221
00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:24,160
Speaker 2: on to the PFF ESPN comparison. PFF John Costco responsible

1222
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:26,399
Speaker 2: for these top thirty two tight ends of the twenty

1223
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:31,200
Speaker 2: twenty four season, Jeremy Fowler. His list comes from executives, coaches,

1224
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:33,279
Speaker 2: so forth and so on.

1225
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:35,680
Speaker 3: The Costco.

1226
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 5: Four.

1227
00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:40,200
Speaker 2: Remember the big differ differentiator here is with PFF they

1228
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:43,880
Speaker 2: have the numbers that they plug in and go courting

1229
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:46,840
Speaker 2: subjective other than the way that they weigh the numbers.

1230
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:47,600
Speaker 2: That's it, yep.

1231
00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:53,879
Speaker 3: And then the ESPN one is the scouts, the front office, coaches, analysts.

1232
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:55,400
Speaker 3: There's a whole panel of people.

1233
00:56:55,760 --> 00:57:00,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, So number one on the coaches yes,

1234
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 2: Travis Kelson, no surprise, and number one in PF and

1235
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 2: number one by aways really amazing. Like TRAVI is now

1236
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 2: thirty four years of age, he is now more popular

1237
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,360
Speaker 2: than he's ever been because of his significant other and

1238
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:18,200
Speaker 2: yet he still is the greatest safety blanket in the

1239
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:20,640
Speaker 2: sport for the wizard of the sport in Patrick Mahomes,

1240
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:24,200
Speaker 2: an NFC executive on Pat or on Travis. Rather, he

1241
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:26,439
Speaker 2: still is a matchup problem in the passing game. Still

1242
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 2: has tremendous report with Mahomes. Big with great hands, instinctive,

1243
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 2: effective after the catch as well. Yeah, he's unbelievable.

1244
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 3: First ballot, I didn't realize he missed out on an

1245
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 3: All Pro first or second team in a one thousand

1246
00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 3: yard season for the first time since twenty fifteen.

1247
00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 2: He wasn't a All Pro tight end.

1248
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:44,040
Speaker 5: That's what it says.

1249
00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:49,919
Speaker 3: Standby, So would that have been the title? Three?

1250
00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 2: Cheez, how is he not first or second team All Pro?

1251
00:57:58,160 --> 00:58:00,560
Speaker 2: Let's see, I assume Kittle was one of the All

1252
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:07,800
Speaker 2: Pro tight ends from the p First team tight end

1253
00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 2: was George Kittle? Second team tight end Sam Laporta. Oh,

1254
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 2: he was a monster still an yeah.

1255
00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:25,960
Speaker 3: I mean at the end of again, Kelsey was the

1256
00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 3: best receiver that Patrick Mahomes had.

1257
00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:29,880
Speaker 2: So if it makes you feel any better, guess who

1258
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,040
Speaker 2: else wasn't first or second team All Pro Patrick Mahomes

1259
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:38,160
Speaker 2: So like Dak Prescott was second team, Lamar Jackson was first.

1260
00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:41,080
Speaker 2: They're doing just fine. They have the ring, all right,

1261
00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:44,960
Speaker 2: go ahead, take your pros. Yeah, Quarterbacks always tricky because

1262
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:47,439
Speaker 2: there probably needs to be more. Kittle second on this list.

1263
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:52,480
Speaker 3: Yes, I'm sorry. PFF had Kittle one, Kelsey two.

1264
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,080
Speaker 2: Oh, they inverted it, so they went Kittle Kelsey. There

1265
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,760
Speaker 2: was no right up for Kittle with the the the

1266
00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 2: front office guys went Kelsey into Kitt So that makes sense.

1267
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:03,480
Speaker 2: Kittle's just thirty. I thought for some reason he was

1268
00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:05,880
Speaker 2: older than that. So there's a lot of time left

1269
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:08,480
Speaker 2: for him and he's on his way to beyond a

1270
00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 2: gold jacket first ballot as well. If they can win

1271
00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:14,680
Speaker 2: a Super Bowl then that cements it. On the ESPN list,

1272
00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:17,800
Speaker 2: Mark Andrews is third. I bet he's lower than that

1273
00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:18,720
Speaker 2: on PFF.

1274
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 3: Or not PFF number three.

1275
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, there you go.

1276
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:24,400
Speaker 3: I told the guys as we were making this, I

1277
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:29,120
Speaker 3: feel like he's made his career against us for a

1278
00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:31,200
Speaker 3: long time. We had a lot of trouble covering the

1279
00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 3: tight ends we did. We did not anymore.

1280
00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 2: No, no, now we're fine in those days.

1281
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:37,440
Speaker 4: Problem.

1282
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:40,120
Speaker 3: But he's missed a lot of games he has.

1283
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:42,280
Speaker 2: That's why I'm surprised he's third on the PFF list.

1284
00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:44,080
Speaker 2: It makes sense on this list, but on PFF I

1285
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:46,600
Speaker 2: would thought the injuries would have been taken into account.

1286
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 2: Sam Laporta is number four.

1287
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 3: I mean, for the guy that was second team All

1288
00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 3: Pro to come in fourth number five on PFF's list.

1289
00:59:56,640 --> 01:00:00,240
Speaker 2: He was five. Okay, he was one of the once

1290
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,840
Speaker 2: where I do this, I do two a days in

1291
01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 2: the morning when we get into August, two NFL teams

1292
01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:08,760
Speaker 2: every day. We usually go division by division. I was

1293
01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:10,800
Speaker 2: talking to the guy, I think Jeff Risden is his name,

1294
01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 2: who covers the Lions, and I was talking to him

1295
01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:14,800
Speaker 2: and I'm like, is there a guy that people aren't

1296
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 2: talking about enough? And he said, Samuel Porta is going

1297
01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:19,920
Speaker 2: to be a dude. And so I drafted him, and

1298
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:22,160
Speaker 2: I told Ze to draft him, and I'm like, just

1299
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,960
Speaker 2: pretty good on knowing those things, and he nailed it.

1300
01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:26,960
Speaker 2: So thank you Jeff for that. He delivered in every

1301
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 2: way for the second round pick, and that takes us.

1302
01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:32,240
Speaker 3: To the number five. Guy, do you remember when the

1303
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,880
Speaker 3: Lions traded with the Viking? Sure like in season Yeah,

1304
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:37,320
Speaker 3: inner division.

1305
01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:39,480
Speaker 2: TJ Hawkins at number five on this list, so he

1306
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:43,480
Speaker 2: four on pff they were inverted here. Number six is

1307
01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:46,200
Speaker 2: a name, you know, the great Chief, David A Joke

1308
01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 2: who coming in at number six. This is just an

1309
01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,400
Speaker 2: incredible It's such a cool thing what he's made of

1310
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,240
Speaker 2: his career. To think about the early years of it,

1311
01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 2: and you think about Austin Hooper coming in here to

1312
01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:00,920
Speaker 2: kind of sort of replace him, and then Chief just

1313
01:01:01,040 --> 01:01:03,640
Speaker 2: stood tall. And now I would say, with the exception

1314
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:06,240
Speaker 2: of Nick Chubb, is probably the most popular offensive player

1315
01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:09,840
Speaker 2: for the Cleveland Browns. He's been that. He's kind of

1316
01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 2: one of the faces of the organization. He's still just

1317
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:15,000
Speaker 2: twenty eight years of age, which is crazy, but he's

1318
01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:19,200
Speaker 2: been here eight seasons. A remarkable thing for the Chief.

1319
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 2: Some of the comments on him, one veteran NFL personnel

1320
01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:24,080
Speaker 2: man has probably taken him a while to get down

1321
01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:26,680
Speaker 2: the nuances of the game, but his size and athleticism

1322
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 2: have always been a problem for defenses. He's not polished

1323
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:31,520
Speaker 2: a little inconsistently comes to feel for the game. But

1324
01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:33,919
Speaker 2: he's gotten better. There's a lot of work to do still,

1325
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,040
Speaker 2: which ought to be terrifying for everybody else.

1326
01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:39,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, it comes down to what's the connection. Like with

1327
01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:42,200
Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson, he had a lot of success with Joe Flacco.

1328
01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:44,520
Speaker 3: If you've listened to any of the Victory Fanny shows

1329
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 3: called his name quite a bit. PFF has him number nine, Okay, okay,

1330
01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 3: which I'm not so sure about, but well.

1331
01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, again, like it could just be you know, their

1332
01:01:57,720 --> 01:01:59,680
Speaker 2: whole thing is like, yeah, I'm sure they're measuring like

1333
01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:03,040
Speaker 2: catch balls that you caught, how many drops on that

1334
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:04,760
Speaker 2: type of thing. They're doing all that like so that

1335
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:06,959
Speaker 2: it's different than just the eye test. This is a dude,

1336
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:08,720
Speaker 2: which is what you're getting out of this list that

1337
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:12,560
Speaker 2: that Jeremy Fowler put together. Dallas Goddard is number seven

1338
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:13,240
Speaker 2: on this one.

1339
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:17,480
Speaker 3: So Dallas Goddard was number six, Okay for PFF. I'll

1340
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:17,800
Speaker 3: tell you what.

1341
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:20,440
Speaker 2: Most of these we've done have been pretty well aligned, correct.

1342
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:20,960
Speaker 5: Now.

1343
01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:25,800
Speaker 3: The interesting one is number seven for PFF was Kyle Pitts.

1344
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:30,280
Speaker 3: Pitts was honorable mention. He's at the bottom bottom, but

1345
01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 3: so let's tell all the guys, like, here's a guy

1346
01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:35,840
Speaker 3: that we thought was going to be the man for

1347
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 3: a long time and just had garbage from an offensive

1348
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:42,480
Speaker 3: play calling standpoint. So it'll be interesting this year to

1349
01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 3: see what happens now that he's got some people that

1350
01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:45,680
Speaker 3: know what they're doing.

1351
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:49,120
Speaker 2: He's also a guy who would score better for PFF

1352
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:51,720
Speaker 2: because he is a catch tight end. He's not a blocker.

1353
01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:54,640
Speaker 2: Sure really, I mean he's like another receiver, so in

1354
01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 2: their data he would he would fare very well. Dalton

1355
01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 2: Kinkaid is eight on the on this list, Dalton kik

1356
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:01,440
Speaker 2: to the bills.

1357
01:03:02,360 --> 01:03:04,560
Speaker 3: Where is Dalton k number thirteen?

1358
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:07,440
Speaker 2: So that's our first one out? Yes, So who do

1359
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:09,000
Speaker 2: you have at eight on the PFF?

1360
01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:12,560
Speaker 3: Number eight Trey McBride of the Arizona Cardinals.

1361
01:03:14,480 --> 01:03:19,439
Speaker 2: Trey McBride was second honorable mentioned on this one. Number

1362
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:21,480
Speaker 2: nine was Evan Ingram of Jacksonville.

1363
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:24,720
Speaker 3: Nadjoku was number nine, but he was number ten.

1364
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:27,960
Speaker 2: Ingram was ten YEFF and final one in the top

1365
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 2: ten was Dalton Schultz of Houston.

1366
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:32,760
Speaker 3: He was number sixteen.

1367
01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:35,680
Speaker 2: Oh, well down the list. So who rounded out your

1368
01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:37,640
Speaker 2: top ten? Then who is your tenth?

1369
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:42,040
Speaker 3: Number ten? Number ten was Evan Ingram. Oh Ingram was ten,

1370
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:45,919
Speaker 3: so there were two missing. The best of the rest

1371
01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 3: Cole Comet, Jake Ferguson, Dalton Kincaid, brock Bauers, Pat Friarmouth

1372
01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:53,360
Speaker 3: of the Squealers.

1373
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:57,760
Speaker 2: Brock Bowers is the rookie out of Georgia. I have

1374
01:03:57,800 --> 01:03:59,040
Speaker 2: a feeling he's going to be a dude.

1375
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,040
Speaker 3: He will be a guy that we have to account

1376
01:04:02,040 --> 01:04:05,080
Speaker 3: for when we go to Las Vegas. Yeah, just if

1377
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:05,640
Speaker 3: they use him.

1378
01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 2: Right, who's slinging at their Minshew?

1379
01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, which he laid it on against us pretty good.

1380
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:15,160
Speaker 4: He did.

1381
01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:18,160
Speaker 2: That was probably the first time that I really realized

1382
01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:20,880
Speaker 2: that I was maybe wrong onesin fields when his offensive

1383
01:04:20,880 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 2: coordinator in Chicago could choose between him or Minshew and

1384
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,440
Speaker 2: they went Minshew. And that's not a slight to Minshew. Minshew.

1385
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:29,000
Speaker 2: Ha's been wildly capable. He's kind of like the perfect backup. Sure,

1386
01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 2: but he's it's well known. He's not like, let's go

1387
01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:33,400

1403
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:41,160
Speaker 4: I forgot.

1404
01:05:42,760 --> 01:05:45,800
Speaker 2: I know all of the kids like they were, they

1405
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 2: were all jacked up for it. But because of all

1406
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:51,480
Speaker 2: of the commitments, all the nonsense I've been doing, I

1407
01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:54,120
Speaker 2: lost track of the can't wrap my head around the

1408
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:57,520
Speaker 2: Today's July fifteenth, I can't, So I forgot. I dropped

1409
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 2: the ball. All the reviews on it are that it's spectacular,

1410
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:04,360
Speaker 2: and they crushed it and made it great the way

1411
01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:06,840
Speaker 2: that the previous game was. So if you didn't pre

1412
01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 2: order it. When can you start playing it Saturday? I

1413
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,960
Speaker 2: think I can still if I buy the Deluxe. I

1414
01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 2: think I can still get that in pretty short order.

1415
01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:16,560
Speaker 2: Like I think if I go home and buy the

1416
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 2: Deluxe and so the Deluxe, I believe comes with Madden

1417
01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 2: and Madden for some crazy fee, probably one hundred and

1418
01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:25,880
Speaker 2: eighty bucks or some crazy thing, and then that gives

1419
01:06:25,920 --> 01:06:27,439
Speaker 2: you access to Boat. So I think I can still

1420
01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 2: do that today in real time. It just won't be preloaded. Gosh,

1421
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:31,520
Speaker 2: I dropped the.

1422
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:31,840
Speaker 5: Ball on that.

1423
01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:32,880
Speaker 2: I should have had it preloaded.

1424
01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:37,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, send him outside, as I said, allow to play

1425
01:06:37,360 --> 01:06:38,320
Speaker 3: video games right now.

1426
01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:39,520
Speaker 5: I don't know.

1427
01:06:39,680 --> 01:06:41,440
Speaker 3: It's hard to say like he was yet he was

1428
01:06:41,520 --> 01:06:42,439
Speaker 3: busted for a while.

1429
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:46,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, he had one of the most comprehensive I'm standing

1430
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:49,960
Speaker 2: there with the buddy. Anytime he goes Mom, can I

1431
01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,760
Speaker 2: talk to you? I know it's coming. So we're going

1432
01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:54,120
Speaker 2: to try to find a way for Mom to buy

1433
01:06:54,200 --> 01:06:56,000
Speaker 2: us something. So I'm standing there with the buddy. Man,

1434
01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 2: I'm I watch this. So he goes over and he

1435
01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:01,080
Speaker 2: goes Mom. So there's all all of these youth sports things.

1436
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,240
Speaker 2: They have, these like merch tents forever, like sure, lacrosse.

1437
01:07:04,280 --> 01:07:08,160
Speaker 2: It's heads and gear and all this stuff for and

1438
01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:10,400
Speaker 2: T shirts and all this. They need none of this.

1439
01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:12,480
Speaker 3: Stuff that doesn't even have anything to do with a tournament.

1440
01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:13,760
Speaker 3: It's a chotchke convention.

1441
01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:15,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, in many yeah it is. It's it's

1442
01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:18,040
Speaker 2: just stuff like there's now that you can buy a

1443
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 2: stick and you can buy stuff like that that's standible.

1444
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:22,080
Speaker 2: But like a lot of it's non sense, and he

1445
01:07:22,160 --> 01:07:24,720
Speaker 2: doesn't even care about any of it, Like I just

1446
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:26,480
Speaker 2: think it's the thrill of the chase for him. It's

1447
01:07:26,520 --> 01:07:28,200
Speaker 2: the hunt, Like can I convince mom to buy it?

1448
01:07:28,640 --> 01:07:31,280
Speaker 2: That's really it. So I'm sitting with a buddy of mine.

1449
01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:33,800
Speaker 2: I'm like, watch watch this. So he drags her over

1450
01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:36,640
Speaker 2: to like a T shirt hoodie tent where they make

1451
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:39,720
Speaker 2: like custom hoodies they'll put like I'm a boss or

1452
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:42,200
Speaker 2: whatever with a lax stick, that type of nonsense. Sure

1453
01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:45,520
Speaker 2: Sigma so mid blah blah blah nah. That's all they

1454
01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:48,200
Speaker 2: have to talk. So I see him make his way

1455
01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:51,200
Speaker 2: over there and he's dragging her, and I'm like, watch this,

1456
01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:54,240
Speaker 2: he's gonna watch how diligent he is. So she's like, no,

1457
01:07:54,360 --> 01:07:56,240
Speaker 2: I see you're shaking her because we agreed, like we're

1458
01:07:56,280 --> 01:08:00,200
Speaker 2: not doing anything. So she starts to peel away, and

1459
01:08:00,360 --> 01:08:03,640
Speaker 2: he just defensive slides right in front of her, and

1460
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:08,080
Speaker 2: he goes like this like hands up, like wait a second.

1461
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:11,640
Speaker 2: So then she like tosses her head up, turns around

1462
01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:14,560
Speaker 2: and goes back to the tent. So now I see,

1463
01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:16,600
Speaker 2: now he's done it, she's engaged.

1464
01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:18,760
Speaker 3: He's got it right where he needs her.

1465
01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 2: Who knows what he sold her on? So now I

1466
01:08:21,080 --> 01:08:22,960
Speaker 2: see a guy grabbing a shirt, and I tell my buddy,

1467
01:08:22,960 --> 01:08:25,599
Speaker 2: I'm like, I guarantee you she does not have any

1468
01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:27,760
Speaker 2: any clue on how much that T shirt is. That

1469
01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:30,439
Speaker 2: T shirt could be nineteen ninety nine, it could be

1470
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:32,960
Speaker 2: forty bucks. Yep, my bet is on the ladder. Yep

1471
01:08:33,040 --> 01:08:35,160
Speaker 2: that it's probably forty is probably where it is. He

1472
01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:37,400
Speaker 2: will not he will wear it one time. He'll put

1473
01:08:37,439 --> 01:08:39,800
Speaker 2: it on at this tournament and he'll never wear it again.

1474
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:43,960
Speaker 2: So I'm seeing this all go down, and he's working

1475
01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:48,559
Speaker 2: his op, he's working his magic, and so we're getting stickers.

1476
01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:50,920
Speaker 2: I'm like, there's no of course, has anybody asked, like

1477
01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 2: every single decal w p it on this? Is there

1478
01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:55,760
Speaker 2: an extra cost? You bet there is you're done, right, Yeah,

1479
01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:57,400
Speaker 2: you can come out looking like Richard Petty by the

1480
01:08:57,439 --> 01:09:00,439
Speaker 2: time this thing's done, which just stickers everywhere. So he

1481
01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:03,360
Speaker 2: comes out. So then they come away and he's got nothing.

1482
01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:05,800
Speaker 2: So we're trying to do all this stuff. He comes down,

1483
01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:08,760
Speaker 2: head is dropped. She comes over. I'm like, what what

1484
01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:10,720
Speaker 2: what happened there? I thought we weren't getting anything. She's like,

1485
01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:13,600
Speaker 2: well we didn't, And I said, but yeah, but why what?

1486
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:15,960
Speaker 2: Like what happened? So apparently the guy couldn't get the

1487
01:09:16,240 --> 01:09:19,080
Speaker 2: the decals to stick because it was so humid that

1488
01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:22,240
Speaker 2: he could get the decals to stick on the T shirt. So,

1489
01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:24,880
Speaker 2: as she tells me this, I go, did you even

1490
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 2: ask how much? How much that costs? She goes, no,

1491
01:09:27,439 --> 01:09:30,919
Speaker 2: I went, great, fantastic. That's exactly how the whole thing operates.

1492
01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:34,479
Speaker 2: So he's a mastermind. He's diabolical. He's got his he's

1493
01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:37,439
Speaker 2: got his strategies. They work most of the time. Usually

1494
01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:40,200
Speaker 2: it's finding anyway, like a you know, like a cutting horse.

1495
01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:41,880
Speaker 2: You see like a horse, like cut a piece of cow,

1496
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:43,760
Speaker 2: a cow for the rest of the herd. That's what

1497
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:45,599
Speaker 2: he does with my wife. He is a cutting horse.

1498
01:09:45,760 --> 01:09:47,960
Speaker 2: He cuts her away from me and then he works

1499
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:50,960
Speaker 2: her and that's it happens over and over again. They're

1500
01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:53,840
Speaker 2: not coming this week to Indy. They're going to stay

1501
01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:57,200
Speaker 2: back and the older two are going. Oh, like I

1502
01:09:57,320 --> 01:10:01,040
Speaker 2: am terrified at what will be purchased, Like what I'm

1503
01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:02,440
Speaker 2: coming back to say.

1504
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:05,719
Speaker 3: Starting tomorrow. I already had a conversation with my wife

1505
01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 3: about this because I have been alarmed at the number

1506
01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 3: of packages that have arrived prior to Prime Week, right,

1507

01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:20,320
Speaker 3: I've noticed there's seven boxes and not one of these has.

1509
01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:21,800
Speaker 2: My name on I've ordered none of this.

1511
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:27,160
Speaker 3: I'm not seeing anything from these.

1512
01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:30,479

Speaker 2: a circle for Bootsy to crawl into to get out

1525

Speaker 3: him in a potential live with the video games, and like, oh,

1539
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:38,360
Speaker 3: let's go have a conversation with mom. I just want

1540
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:41,439
Speaker 3: to make sure mom's good with it. That's right, She goes, givebe.

1541
01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:44,479
Speaker 3: I do that with every kid I watch, like every

1542
01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:48,040
Speaker 3: single kid now that I watch that, they're like kids

1543
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:50,599
Speaker 3: jumping on the couch. Mom said, I, all right, well,

1544
01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:52,760
Speaker 3: let's go, let's go talk. No, I'm good, I'm good.

1545
01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 3: Immediately stops. She's like, it's amazing. On a dime, I

1546
01:11:56,479 --> 01:11:58,120
Speaker 3: can get these kids to do what I need to do,

1547
01:11:58,560 --> 01:11:59,880
Speaker 3: just by going, well, let's ask.

1548
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:02,240
Speaker 2: Mom, let's ask dad. Yeah, I'll tell you what if

1549
01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:04,160
Speaker 2: aids ever has And I know she hasn't any trouble

1550
01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:06,760
Speaker 2: with our kids. If that ever did happen, all she

1551
01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:08,920
Speaker 2: would have to do is say The correct response would

1552
01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:12,280
Speaker 2: be let's ask dad. Then solved, because that answers no.

1553
01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:17,160
Speaker 3: I I get the strong impression it might also be

1554
01:12:17,439 --> 01:12:20,720
Speaker 3: in the Trotter house that way that way too well.

1555
01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:26,360
Speaker 3: And she's like, missus Trotter is great, and she can

1556
01:12:26,680 --> 01:12:28,200
Speaker 3: she could throw some discipline around.

1557
01:12:28,439 --> 01:12:28,720
Speaker 2: She goes.

1558
01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:32,200
Speaker 3: I've been witnessed to this. She goes, But when you

1559
01:12:32,439 --> 01:12:36,400
Speaker 3: when you say dad, yeah, the tone changes immediately.

1560
01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:37,280
Speaker 5: That's right.

1561
01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:39,639
Speaker 3: And I'm like, I bet it's that case.

1562
01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:42,599
Speaker 2: And that's how it should be, truly, like it's I mean,

1563
01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:43,080
Speaker 2: I don't.

1564
01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:48,280
Speaker 3: Know my mother could throw some discipline around mine, could he?

1565
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 3: When your father gets home from work, well, that's going

1566
01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:54,280
Speaker 3: to be a problem, and I don't want any.

1567
01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:54,400
Speaker 5: Part of it.

1568
01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:56,720
Speaker 2: All right, lets say a little thing or not a thing?

1569
01:12:56,840 --> 01:13:01,080
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, CBS sports, Uh, I got it out, but

1570
01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:02,960
Speaker 3: you're on my phone, so that way you don't have

1571
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:06,760
Speaker 3: the forty pop ups thank you, Sir T Higgins, little disgruntled,

1572
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:12,599
Speaker 3: gonna play this season in Cincinnati, but landing spots potentially.

1573
01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:12,840
Speaker 4: What would it take?

1574
01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:14,640
Speaker 2: So that is this based on the idea that they

1575
01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:15,920
Speaker 2: would trade him in season?

1576
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:20,920
Speaker 3: Yes, potential trade. Potential teams that could trade for the

1577
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:22,000
Speaker 3: wide receiver.

1578
01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:26,840
Speaker 2: I think it would be. I can't believe it hasn't

1579
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:30,200
Speaker 2: happened already. I can't believe they're willing to let him

1580
01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:32,160
Speaker 2: play this out, play this out the way they did

1581
01:13:32,240 --> 01:13:34,320
Speaker 2: with Jesse Bates and he walked for nothing.

1582
01:13:35,920 --> 01:13:36,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1583
01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,439
Speaker 2: No, I know, like I know, it's tough to trade

1584
01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:42,600
Speaker 2: him because the problem with trading him is whoever you

1585
01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,280
Speaker 2: trade him to, they then have to do the contract,

1586
01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:47,320
Speaker 2: and no one's gonna want to pay him twenty six

1587
01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:50,840
Speaker 2: million dollars to play receiver. So that's the price. So

1588
01:13:50,920 --> 01:13:52,920
Speaker 2: because of that, your return is going to be less

1589
01:13:53,479 --> 01:13:55,400
Speaker 2: than what it ought to be because he's a stud.

1590
01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:55,920
Speaker 2: He's a one A.

1591
01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:58,160
Speaker 3: He was the first pick in the second round, so

1592
01:13:58,280 --> 01:13:59,160
Speaker 3: he wasn't a first.

1593
01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:02,760
Speaker 2: Round pick, no, no, but he he's played like that

1594
01:14:03,320 --> 01:14:05,639
Speaker 2: and he's a one A like he's not Jamar Chase,

1595
01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:07,840
Speaker 2: so he shouldn't be paid like a one But he

1596
01:14:07,880 --> 01:14:09,960
Speaker 2: probably thinks he should get paid like a one. Absolutely,

1597
01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:12,320
Speaker 2: So that's why it's really complicated for them.

1598
01:14:12,680 --> 01:14:15,320
Speaker 3: You know, injuries last year forty two catches, six hundred

1599
01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:19,840
Speaker 3: fifty six yards, five touchdowns. Yeah, he's total two hundred

1600
01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:22,639
Speaker 3: and fifty seven catches for thirty six hundred receiving yards

1601
01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:24,880
Speaker 3: and twenty four touchdowns in four NFL seasons.

1602
01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:25,200
Speaker 5: Yep.

1603
01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:30,280
Speaker 3: That's pretty darn good. Best seasons in twenty one and

1604
01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:36,799
Speaker 3: twenty two when Burrow was healthy. So requested the trade.

1605
01:14:38,080 --> 01:14:40,160
Speaker 3: With that in mind, any teams with the receiver needs

1606
01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,120
Speaker 3: that this juncture would be wise to call the Bengals

1607
01:14:42,160 --> 01:14:44,040
Speaker 3: to see what the cost would be to acquire Higgins.

1608
01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:46,760
Speaker 3: Here are a few landing spots for the playmaker with

1609
01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 3: both the need and the financial flexibility to sign him

1610
01:14:50,160 --> 01:14:53,519
Speaker 3: long term. I think that second part is important. Figure

1611
01:14:53,560 --> 01:15:00,160
Speaker 3: not a thing yep. The Washington commanders, Uh.

1612
01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:03,360
Speaker 2: I think that would be like what happened with and

1613
01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:05,519
Speaker 2: I'm not saying he's the same player, but that's gonna

1614
01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:09,519
Speaker 2: be like DeVante Adams going to the Raiders, or that's

1615
01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:12,600
Speaker 2: going to be like DJ Moore last year going to

1616
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:17,160
Speaker 2: the Bears. Whereas he may put up numbers from Jaden

1617
01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:20,280
Speaker 2: Daniels throwing him the football, but it's gonna be he's

1618
01:15:20,320 --> 01:15:22,639
Speaker 2: going to disappear off the grid. I think the give

1619
01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:26,000
Speaker 2: back from Cincinnati I would be fascinating in like, what

1620
01:15:26,120 --> 01:15:29,120
Speaker 2: would Washington give Cincinnati? Do they have that at all

1621
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:31,880
Speaker 2: in there? Any sort of idea of what they would

1622
01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:35,600
Speaker 2: give back would be No, Okay, so this is just so.

1623
01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:38,439
Speaker 2: If it's just a true free agent landing spot, I

1624
01:15:38,479 --> 01:15:40,560
Speaker 2: would not advise to Higgins do that. The money, the

1625
01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:43,760
Speaker 2: checks will cash, but you're not gonna stack after this.

1626
01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:46,200
Speaker 2: You're gonna be miserable because we suffered DeVante Adams to

1627
01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:47,959
Speaker 2: the Receiver show. Yeah miserable.

1628
01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:51,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't And I think the other

1629
01:15:51,840 --> 01:15:54,680
Speaker 3: thing to watch is doesn't Brandon Ayuk want to go there?

1630
01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:57,400
Speaker 3: Isn't he watching like Commander film.

1631
01:15:57,520 --> 01:15:58,960
Speaker 2: I don't know what would the connection? Oh because he

1632
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,639
Speaker 2: played with Jaden Daniels Arizona stage years ago.

1633
01:16:01,920 --> 01:16:06,520
Speaker 3: Yeah? Uh, thing or not a thing? The New England Patriots,

1634
01:16:07,120 --> 01:16:10,559
Speaker 3: not a thing. Higgins need to go there.

1635
01:16:10,680 --> 01:16:14,599
Speaker 2: No, that's a mess. It's a massive rebuild, correct, massive rebuild.

1636
01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:16,559
Speaker 3: I would not go there, No, not at all.

1637
01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:17,240
Speaker 2: Uh.

1638
01:16:17,479 --> 01:16:19,800
Speaker 3: Somehow they had the New York Football Jets on here.

1639
01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:23,320
Speaker 2: Well, how hold on a second, how many guys are

1640
01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:25,360
Speaker 2: they gonna have? Aaron Rodgers told us over the weekend

1641
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:27,599
Speaker 2: that he's gonna look forward to playing with Devonte Adams again.

1642
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:29,760
Speaker 3: Correct, the Jets don't have a ton of cap space

1643
01:16:29,840 --> 01:16:32,400
Speaker 3: to play with. Well, that just discredits the entire argument

1644
01:16:32,479 --> 01:16:34,280
Speaker 3: that you made at the beginning of the article when

1645
01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:36,840
Speaker 3: you were like, we factor in the they've only got

1646
01:16:36,920 --> 01:16:40,120
Speaker 3: six point two five million left. But they could get

1647
01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:43,560
Speaker 3: creative in their accounting for Higgins extension by providing with

1648
01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:47,120
Speaker 3: a massive signing bonus and backloading his contractor defer larger

1649
01:16:47,160 --> 01:16:48,439
Speaker 3: cap hits to future years.

1650
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:52,200
Speaker 2: I get that from from that stand, but I think that's.

1651
01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:55,160
Speaker 3: A Matt DeVante Adams is who Aaron Rodgers wants.

1652
01:16:55,400 --> 01:16:57,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. And there's a window on Rodgers,

1653
01:16:57,720 --> 01:17:00,240
Speaker 2: like at most of your Higgins you got one two

1654
01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:02,519
Speaker 2: years more with Rogers. Because all this I'm guessing is

1655
01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:05,080
Speaker 2: that this would all happen after this season. He would

1656
01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:08,400
Speaker 2: leave via free agency, right like, because otherwise you what's

1657
01:17:08,439 --> 01:17:11,400
Speaker 2: your give back? Here's the thing. If he starts with

1658
01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:13,800
Speaker 2: the Bengals, there's no way they trade him because they're

1659
01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:16,040
Speaker 2: trying to win the Super Bowl, so away they would

1660
01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:17,960
Speaker 2: trade him as if there was another injury to Burrow

1661
01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:20,920
Speaker 2: then s yeah, we're out of it, so then we'll

1662
01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:21,400
Speaker 2: trade him.

1663
01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:25,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with you on that. I don't.

1664
01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:29,040
Speaker 2: And again, you have some pretty good wide receivers. They do,

1665
01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:31,240
Speaker 2: they do, Yeah, for sure.

1666
01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:36,240
Speaker 3: The final one on this list was the LA Football Chargers.

1667
01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:40,360
Speaker 2: Now you're talking, now, you're talking. You see those facilities

1668
01:17:40,400 --> 01:17:41,320
Speaker 2: they open over the weekend?

1669
01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:42,120
Speaker 5: Boy did I?

1670
01:17:42,439 --> 01:17:46,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, So they've thrown a lot of money around. Harbaugh

1671
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:49,240
Speaker 2: is a winning coach. He will win there. And you've

1672
01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:51,840
Speaker 2: got a big time quarterback and you go be the

1673
01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:54,920
Speaker 2: one right now. I don't know who else is going

1674
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,280
Speaker 2: to be the one on that football team.

1675
01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,880
Speaker 3: No, there is immediate I'm the Chargers. I would be

1676
01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:03,760
Speaker 3: trying to make this happen now. Yeah.

1677
01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:06,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, if they're serious about trying to win right now,

1678
01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:07,840
Speaker 2: I mean they can do that. They just got rid

1679
01:18:07,880 --> 01:18:10,759
Speaker 2: of Allen, they got rid of Williams. They're both gone,

1680
01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:13,320
Speaker 2: So like they need a guy like that. He's a

1681
01:18:13,360 --> 01:18:15,320
Speaker 2: big body receiver on the edge. He can do about

1682
01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:17,400
Speaker 2: anything that you want at the position. To me, that

1683
01:18:17,439 --> 01:18:19,120
Speaker 2: seems like a no brainer. I think that's a thing

1684
01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:21,320
Speaker 2: for him. I think it's a thing for them. I

1685
01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:28,040
Speaker 2: think Cincinnati boy our division, it's chock full and there's

1686
01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:32,439
Speaker 2: just critical decisions. When I mean the Ravens, they have

1687
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:34,679
Speaker 2: a bunch of turnover on their defensive staff. They lost

1688
01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:36,360
Speaker 2: a bunch of players, But I think the heart and

1689
01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:38,439
Speaker 2: soul of what the Ravens are remains. They have Lamar,

1690
01:18:38,479 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 2: They've got Harbaugh. They are the Ravens. They feel like

1691
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:43,719
Speaker 2: the Ravens to me, and because of how well they draft,

1692
01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:45,760
Speaker 2: they've been able to just plug guys in when guys

1693
01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:49,600
Speaker 2: lead and expect nothing. Pittsburgh has major questions huge like

1694
01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:52,800
Speaker 2: which quarterback are we going to play? Are either one

1695
01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:54,920
Speaker 2: of these guys our future? Are they both just Reynolds?

1696
01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:57,200
Speaker 3: Especially if you didn't pick up the fifth year option

1697
01:18:57,320 --> 01:18:58,120
Speaker 3: on Fields.

1698
01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:00,639
Speaker 2: Right, So these guys both just Reynolds, Like you're gonna

1699
01:19:00,680 --> 01:19:03,439
Speaker 2: have to You're gonna have to see Fields play at

1700
01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:05,120
Speaker 2: some point, like you took a flyer on him, like

1701
01:19:05,160 --> 01:19:07,120
Speaker 2: you want to see if there's more there than what

1702
01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:09,720
Speaker 2: we saw in Chicago. And the same time you have

1703
01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:11,320
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson. So how do you manage all of that?

1704
01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:14,479
Speaker 2: We've got our questions with DeShawn hasn't been healthy, hasn't

1705
01:19:15,080 --> 01:19:17,439
Speaker 2: has not played at a level consistently since his time

1706
01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:19,920
Speaker 2: in Houston, in large part because of injury and off field.

1707
01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:23,760
Speaker 2: So we've got questions, and Cincinnati's got monster questions. They

1708
01:19:23,800 --> 01:19:26,040
Speaker 2: have pressure of all right, we blew a window with

1709
01:19:26,160 --> 01:19:29,479
Speaker 2: Jesse Bates. That's gone. We lost last year to injury.

1710
01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:32,800
Speaker 2: This year we're all in Higgins and Chase one last

1711
01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:36,280
Speaker 2: dance together. But if there is an injury to Chase

1712
01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:40,160
Speaker 2: Higgins or Burrow, how do they react. Burrow's had four

1713
01:19:40,200 --> 01:19:42,760
Speaker 2: pro seasons, he's missed two the majority of two of them.

1714
01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:47,080
Speaker 2: So it's real. So they've got huge all of these teams.

1715
01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:51,920
Speaker 2: Ceiling is and the problem everybody's window is now that's

1716
01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:53,080
Speaker 2: another great point, Lamar.

1717
01:19:53,640 --> 01:19:58,160
Speaker 3: Now Steelers have I hate to say it, they have

1718
01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:02,280
Speaker 3: everything else. You have everything waiting to see what you know,

1719
01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:03,920
Speaker 3: what DeShawn can do this year?

1720
01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:04,280
Speaker 5: Yep?

1721
01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:05,200
Speaker 2: Like it?

1722
01:20:05,439 --> 01:20:07,559
Speaker 3: And you know, can can we get some other guys

1723
01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:09,080
Speaker 3: back right upright and healthy?

1724
01:20:10,560 --> 01:20:12,240
Speaker 2: I don't know if the division's ever been like this.

1725
01:20:12,360 --> 01:20:15,160
Speaker 2: We're all four are in a window to go that

1726
01:20:15,360 --> 01:20:16,920
Speaker 2: if this is the second year in a row where

1727
01:20:16,920 --> 01:20:18,280
Speaker 2: I would have said this that if you went to

1728
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 2: every one of the operations because Pitts are gonna said

1729
01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:23,360
Speaker 2: it last year with Kenny Pickett, even though we didn't

1730
01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:24,680
Speaker 2: believe it. If you would have went to any of

1731
01:20:24,680 --> 01:20:26,320
Speaker 2: those front offices, they would have said, yeah, let's go

1732
01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:28,880
Speaker 2: win the Super Bowl. Everybody in this division feels that way.

1733
01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:31,960
Speaker 3: Two years from now, this division could look totally different,

1734
01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:33,800
Speaker 3: totally gotta win now.

1735
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:37,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, the window is open, but it's I think for

1736
01:20:37,320 --> 01:20:42,360
Speaker 2: everybody it's either wide open or starting to close. And

1737
01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:45,880
Speaker 2: the Cincinnati and this incarnation of the Cincinnati Bengals is

1738
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:49,720
Speaker 2: going to be different next year, yep, dramatically different after that,

1739
01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:52,280
Speaker 2: already different than the team that played in the Super Bowl.

1740
01:20:52,680 --> 01:20:56,479
Speaker 2: So that that's the way that this thing goes. And yeah,

1741
01:20:56,520 --> 01:20:59,280
Speaker 2: they're all in the window. I was trying to probably

1742
01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:01,840
Speaker 2: I suppose there was a time in the eighties when

1743
01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:07,599
Speaker 2: it was Boomer and Warren Moon and Bernie. But then

1744
01:21:07,680 --> 01:21:10,759
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh would have been like a Mark and a Bubby Brister,

1745
01:21:11,479 --> 01:21:13,760
Speaker 2: and they weren't. They weren't anything with that.

1746
01:21:14,560 --> 01:21:15,000
Speaker 5: It sucked.

1747
01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:17,960
Speaker 2: They weren't anything until Coward got there. Then they kind

1748
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:20,679
Speaker 2: of got got going a little correct with Neil O'Donnell.

1749
01:21:20,720 --> 01:21:22,320
Speaker 2: But I mean it was, it was a few years.

1750
01:21:22,760 --> 01:21:24,960
Speaker 2: I don't know if the division this is two years

1751
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:26,760
Speaker 2: in a row of this where the division has been

1752
01:21:26,840 --> 01:21:30,200
Speaker 2: this consistently good and everybody thinks they have a shot

1753
01:21:30,240 --> 01:21:32,240
Speaker 2: at this thing. All right, there you go. Good job

01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:33,320
Speaker 3: Very nice.

1777
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:37,879
Speaker 4: How different does a helmet feel.

1778
01:22:38,400 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 5: A whole lot different? I feel lighter.

1779
01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 7: I've been having to get some adjustments for my helm

1780
01:22:43,080 --> 01:22:44,960
Speaker 7: because you know, I had dress for eighteen years, so

1781
01:22:45,520 --> 01:22:46,840
Speaker 7: there was a lot of adjustment I had to do.

1782
01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:49,000
Speaker 5: But it feels good, man. I feel light, man, ready

1783
01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:49,160
Speaker 5: to go.

1784
01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:51,040
Speaker 6: I feel like maybe a little quicker around the edge,

1785
01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:52,479
Speaker 6: a little more aerodynamic, let's go.

1786
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:54,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, I've been seeing and Coach been talking about it. Man,

1787
01:22:54,880 --> 01:22:56,640
Speaker 7: it looked like I looked like ten pounds lighter. So

1788
01:22:56,680 --> 01:22:58,840
Speaker 7: I'm happy that I look that way in feel that way.

1789
01:22:58,840 --> 01:22:59,280
Speaker 5: How about that?

1790
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:01,880
Speaker 6: So your room obviously a lot of fun. You guys

1791
01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:04,320
Speaker 6: very much enjoy each other's company. How great has it

1792
01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:06,320
Speaker 6: been kind of getting everybody back, getting to be around

1793
01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:06,840
Speaker 6: the guys again.

1794
01:23:07,080 --> 01:23:07,880
Speaker 5: Well, it's been good.

1795
01:23:08,320 --> 01:23:10,120
Speaker 7: I can say I've been missing the guys because I've

1796
01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:11,760
Speaker 7: been home in Florida, trying to take care of the

1797
01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:12,479
Speaker 7: family or whatever.

1798
01:23:12,600 --> 01:23:14,400
Speaker 5: But just to have this brotherhood.

1799
01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:17,120
Speaker 7: Man, our room is so different, man and unique man,

1800
01:23:17,240 --> 01:23:20,360
Speaker 7: because it's not just you know, in the locker room

1801
01:23:20,479 --> 01:23:23,800
Speaker 7: or in the classroom. Man, we get outside outside of

1802
01:23:23,840 --> 01:23:27,120
Speaker 7: the facility, Man, we go eat watch the basketball games.

1803
01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:27,320
Speaker 5: Man.

1804
01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:29,960
Speaker 7: I think we got a dinner to night at one

1805
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:32,439
Speaker 7: of the restaurants downtown. So it's just the little things, man,

1806
01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 7: the team camaraderie for this defensive line. Now, I feel

1807
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 7: like that's why we wanted the best defensive line this year.

1808
01:23:37,240 --> 01:23:40,040
Speaker 7: What defenses this year, because we all can get get

1809
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:42,320
Speaker 7: around each other, man, and have that team camaraderie.

1810
01:23:42,560 --> 01:23:45,000
Speaker 6: And you've been on very successful teams in the past.

1811
01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,400
Speaker 6: There's something special about this locker room. Man, I've heard

1812
01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:48,639
Speaker 6: that from a lot of the guys, and you smile

1813
01:23:48,680 --> 01:23:49,679
Speaker 6: as soon as I ask you the question.

1814
01:23:49,840 --> 01:23:50,200
Speaker 5: What is it?

1815
01:23:50,280 --> 01:23:51,360
Speaker 4: What is that secret sauce.

1816
01:23:52,439 --> 01:23:54,280
Speaker 5: I don't know, Man, I just feel like it's the

1817
01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 5: team camaraderie. What we were just talking about, Man, the brotherhood. Man.

1818
01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:01,439
Speaker 7: You know, don't nobody act like that better than one another? Man,

1819
01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:04,400
Speaker 7: And like I said, guys are brothers. Man, we'd be

1820
01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:06,840
Speaker 7: trying to help each other with the little things. If

1821
01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:09,519
Speaker 7: somebody mess up, you can go talk to the guy,

1822
01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:12,120
Speaker 7: help him with his mistakes, man, and he'll listen to you.

1823
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:14,160
Speaker 7: Knowing that he's coming from love and from a real

1824
01:24:14,520 --> 01:24:15,879
Speaker 7: brotherhood type of situation.

1825
01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:19,080
Speaker 6: Jacques sees Air comes into the room, played in the league,

1826
01:24:19,160 --> 01:24:20,439
Speaker 6: and obviously I've talked to some of the guys in

1827
01:24:20,439 --> 01:24:21,160
Speaker 6: your room already.

1828
01:24:21,479 --> 01:24:23,599
Speaker 4: They're loving him and kind of what he brings.

1829
01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:25,439
Speaker 6: So for as a veteran like yourself, what do you

1830
01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:27,559
Speaker 6: see from Jacques ces Air and guy who obviously had

1831
01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:29,400
Speaker 6: a lot of familiar with Obo from his time in Houston.

1832
01:24:29,520 --> 01:24:32,760
Speaker 7: Oh, great guy, man. It's just a little things man,

1833
01:24:32,840 --> 01:24:35,120
Speaker 7: that he's seeing that a lot of guys are not

1834
01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:36,000
Speaker 7: seeing right now.

1835
01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:37,960
Speaker 5: It comes with formations.

1836
01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:40,519
Speaker 7: He's looking at the backfields and knowing what type of

1837
01:24:40,600 --> 01:24:42,439
Speaker 7: situation that we're in and if you're getting a reach

1838
01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:45,920
Speaker 7: block or cut off block. The guys just see everything

1839
01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:47,960
Speaker 7: before the snap of the ball. So that's good and

1840
01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:49,880
Speaker 7: hopefully he can pass it down to the young guys

1841
01:24:50,080 --> 01:24:51,639
Speaker 7: as we get going with Mini count.

1842
01:24:51,800 --> 01:24:54,040
Speaker 6: It's a nice seven little infusion of some young guys

1843
01:24:54,080 --> 01:24:55,800

1863

1866
01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:41,479
Speaker 7: out of high school, one year of high school football,

1867
01:25:42,120 --> 01:25:43,519
Speaker 7: now ten years in the NFL.

1868
01:25:43,640 --> 01:25:45,320
Speaker 5: Man, it's a blessing. Man. We're gonna keep going.

1869
01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:47,639
Speaker 6: What is one thing maybe you wish you had told

1870
01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:50,560
Speaker 6: your high school self about kind of the journey that

1871
01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:51,200
Speaker 6: you would go on.

1872
01:25:55,160 --> 01:25:58,040
Speaker 5: What would I tell myself my younger self?

1873
01:26:00,680 --> 01:26:03,200
Speaker 6: It's gonna work out, that's for one. Believe in yourself baby,

1874
01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:04,000
Speaker 6: Believe in yourself.

1875
01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:04,840
Speaker 5: Believe in yourself.

1876
01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:06,360
Speaker 7: But you know me, I was a guy that was

1877
01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:08,680
Speaker 7: a basketball player and I thought I was gonna make

1878
01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:11,160
Speaker 7: it to the NBA, but as we all know that

1879
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:12,360
Speaker 7: that wasn't gonna happen.

1880
01:26:13,640 --> 01:26:17,320
Speaker 5: But just to say, yeah, the passionate and the love

1881
01:26:17,439 --> 01:26:18,200
Speaker 5: for the game. Man.

1882
01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:20,960
Speaker 7: You know, my younger self did not love football. I

1883
01:26:21,080 --> 01:26:24,000
Speaker 7: love basketball. So now that I'm ten years in, man,

1884
01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:26,800
Speaker 7: it's all a blessed coach. It's a blessing to be here, man.

1885
01:26:26,880 --> 01:26:30,840
Speaker 7: And I just say, man, consistency. You gotta have that

1886
01:26:30,960 --> 01:26:32,800
Speaker 7: in this league, man, because if you don't have it,

1887
01:26:33,680 --> 01:26:35,640
Speaker 7: you could be out the door real quick on the

1888
01:26:35,680 --> 01:26:39,880
Speaker 7: field exactly, not making any money. So I just say that, man,

1889
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:43,240
Speaker 7: it's just to have that and hopefully that takes me

1890
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:45,920
Speaker 7: a long way. All you got year, that'd be great,

1891
01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:50,040
Speaker 7: That would be a legit career.

1892
01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:52,800
Speaker 6: There already is no doubt, all right you and you

1893
01:26:52,880 --> 01:26:56,439
Speaker 6: piqued my interests with basketball, Zadarius, So you dreamed about

1894
01:26:56,439 --> 01:26:58,800
Speaker 6: what's crazy is in the NFL you're a big guy,

1895
01:26:58,920 --> 01:27:01,439
Speaker 6: yeah for sure. In the NBA you're a point guard.

1896
01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:03,920
Speaker 6: I'm a small guy, right, can't you all that would

1897
01:27:03,920 --> 01:27:05,320
Speaker 6: have made it. That would make it tough, right in

1898
01:27:05,439 --> 01:27:07,439
Speaker 6: six four sixty five. So what was your what was

1899
01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:08,120
Speaker 6: your game like?

1900
01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:09,080
Speaker 2: Uh?

1901
01:27:09,520 --> 01:27:12,080
Speaker 7: So when I was coming up, what was that twenty ten?

1902
01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:16,439
Speaker 7: In twenty eleven, from a small town, So I was

1903
01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:18,200
Speaker 7: the guy that played the five. Because I was from

1904
01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:20,240
Speaker 7: a small town. I was the biggest guy in my hometown.

1905
01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:23,000
Speaker 7: But I got a chance to play travel ball and

1906
01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:26,360
Speaker 7: there was a lot of guys who were six eight

1907
01:27:27,080 --> 01:27:30,360
Speaker 7: six ' nine seven foot and I couldn't get any rebounds. Man,

1908
01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:33,960
Speaker 7: I was getting my shot block. So something just told me, man,

1909
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:36,400
Speaker 7: man get this up, man, you know, go try football.

1910
01:27:36,680 --> 01:27:38,640
Speaker 7: And that's what I did. I tried football, man, and

1911
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:40,760
Speaker 7: I think it was too late to what the coach

1912
01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:41,640
Speaker 7: was just telling me, Man, go.

1913
01:27:41,680 --> 01:27:43,920
Speaker 5: Get the quarterback. And I was good at going to

1914
01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:44,599
Speaker 5: get the quarterback.

1915
01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:46,839
Speaker 7: I was good at you know, jab stepping and spinning

1916
01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:50,000
Speaker 7: from basketball and all converted over the football.

1917
01:27:50,120 --> 01:27:51,400
Speaker 5: So here I am now, man.

1918
01:27:51,560 --> 01:27:53,320
Speaker 4: By the way, that is very profitable skill to have,

1919
01:27:53,439 --> 01:27:54,599
Speaker 4: being able to get the quarterback.

1920
01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:57,080
Speaker 5: Sure, for sure, I totally agree with you, Yes, sir, I.

1921
01:27:57,080 --> 01:27:57,560
Speaker 4: Got to ask you.

1922
01:27:57,600 --> 01:27:59,879
Speaker 6: So I remember seeing you. This was pre the haircut.

1923
01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:02,720
Speaker 6: I think it was Calve's Magic playoff game. You were

1924
01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:07,400
Speaker 6: in a tremendous blue get up, and I was saying,

1925
01:28:07,760 --> 01:28:09,960
Speaker 6: you look to me like if they were I remember

1926
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:13,000
Speaker 6: the Rock was doing Ballers. Yeah, okay, if he was

1927
01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:15,639
Speaker 6: like Central casting, I want to see what a badass

1928
01:28:15,800 --> 01:28:16,920
Speaker 6: NFL star looks like.

1929
01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:19,519
Speaker 5: What you wore to that game? That was it right there?

1930
01:28:19,600 --> 01:28:21,479
Speaker 6: So how did we cultivate this? How did we how

1931
01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:23,000
Speaker 6: did we go with it? And was it as well

1932
01:28:23,080 --> 01:28:25,640
Speaker 6: received near you as it was for me? Kind of

1933
01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:28,040
Speaker 6: a little across the arena for sure. I'm a Cavs

1934
01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:31,200
Speaker 6: fan that night. I think I had the outfit custom

1935
01:28:31,280 --> 01:28:33,600
Speaker 6: made and that was the only outfit I had to

1936
01:28:33,680 --> 01:28:35,519
Speaker 6: wear out, so it had to be blue and they

1937
01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:37,640
Speaker 6: had to be playing the Magics at the time. But

1938
01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:39,720
Speaker 6: for me, Man, that was a silk outfit that I

1939
01:28:39,800 --> 01:28:42,880
Speaker 6: had made from beautiful from my guy Rich Rich from

1940
01:28:42,920 --> 01:28:43,599
Speaker 6: out of Houston.

1941
01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:46,080
Speaker 7: Man, he do a lot of my custom outfits. Actually

1942
01:28:46,200 --> 01:28:47,880
Speaker 7: took two weeks, so I was gonna we it either

1943
01:28:47,920 --> 01:28:50,240
Speaker 7: way or not. But that was just a game that way.

1944
01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:53,439
Speaker 7: I wish it was maroon and gold instead of being

1945
01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:54,040
Speaker 7: all blue, But.

1946
01:28:54,120 --> 01:28:55,720
Speaker 4: Don't worry about you looked spectacular.

1947
01:28:55,800 --> 01:28:57,800
Speaker 5: Man's fan.

1948
01:28:57,960 --> 01:28:59,439
Speaker 4: The shades going he had the chain gone.

1949
01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:01,759
Speaker 5: It was like red carpet.

1950
01:29:02,160 --> 01:29:03,600
Speaker 6: So when you're there and you're sitting, I think you

1951
01:29:03,680 --> 01:29:05,760
Speaker 6: were like maybe second row underneath the basket. When you

1952
01:29:05,840 --> 01:29:09,680
Speaker 6: see a guy like Polo Banco who's six eleven and

1953
01:29:09,800 --> 01:29:11,760
Speaker 6: built like that in moves like that, is that where

1954
01:29:11,800 --> 01:29:12,880
Speaker 6: you say to yourself, you know what, I made a

1955
01:29:12,920 --> 01:29:14,920
Speaker 6: really good decision going in the football.

1956
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:16,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure, because I knew I wouldn't have been

1957
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,840
Speaker 7: able to get any rebounds up under him or beside

1958
01:29:19,920 --> 01:29:21,240
Speaker 7: him or any shots.

1959
01:29:21,320 --> 01:29:21,519
Speaker 5: Man.

1960
01:29:21,600 --> 01:29:23,840
Speaker 7: So I'm glad I made the decision that I made

1961
01:29:23,880 --> 01:29:26,080
Speaker 7: in twenty eleven to go out and play football.

1962
01:29:26,120 --> 01:29:27,559

1964
01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:31,559
Speaker 6: spent a lot of time in Japan. Did you get

1965
01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:33,120
Speaker 6: to do anything with the family? Obvious, it's a little

1966
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:34,960
Speaker 6: different for you as a family man. But any good

1967
01:29:34,960 --> 01:29:37,920
Speaker 6: trips Not just yet, man, I'm gonna do one right

1972
01:29:45,680 --> 01:29:48,280
Speaker 7: so she'd get a chance to travel. Now we're thinking
