And he had some kind 14 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 3: of cryptic comments that people are reading. 15 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 4: Into guys worse than that. 16 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,480 Speaker 5: Joe Burrow has been heard basically every season since twenty seventeen. 17 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 5: Back in our lashed they broke a bone in his 18 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 5: thrown at twenty seventeen torn rib cardialgellis you in twenty 19 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 5: twenty torn aclcl twenty twenty within the Bengals, So that 20 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 5: was in the same season, like same calendar year.

Even still, 26 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 5: he came back early from the injury, beats Baltimore. In 27 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 5: his first game back, goes toe to toe with Josh Allen, 28 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 5: comes up short. Effectively They're not totally out of it, 29 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 5: but effectively ending any chance they had of making the postseason. 30 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 5: And yesterday when he met with the media, he looked despondent. 31 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 5: He sounded desponding. You don't believe me. Take a listen. 32 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 6: I want to keep doing this. I have to have 33 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 6: fun doing it. You know, I've been through a lot, 34 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 6: and if it's not fun, then what am I doing 35 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 6: it for. I'm not sure. I'm not sure there is 36 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 6: a singular moment or of time. It's just a reflection, 37 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 6: reflection on a lot of things that I've done and 38 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 6: been through in my career. I think I've been through 39 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 6: more than most and it's certainly not easy on the 40 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 6: brain or the body. So let's trying of if I'm 41 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 6: doing it again. 42 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 3: Uh, Joe Burrow, this is a public service announcement to you. 43 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 3: Is this odd at twenty nine years old? This isn't 44 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 3: a reflection. You don't sound like you want to play football, 45 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 3: like it's taking a. 46 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 4: Toll on you. I got a message for you. 47 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:33,679 Speaker 3: Retire, Joe Burrow. Retire. It's okay for real. You got 48 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: your whole life ahead of you. Whenever you start talking 49 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 3: about reflecting about this a forty year old guy, maybe 50 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 3: a thirty eight year old guy twenty nine, and you're 51 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 3: feeling that downtrodden, that beat up and not excited about 52 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 3: playing football. Seriously, I respect Andrew Luck, he said no. 53 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 3: Moss Kelvin and I both. 54 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 4: Know football players who don't even like playing football. 55 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 3: But they do it to make money. Is the biggest 56 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 3: dirty secret in the sports. They make a lot of money. 57 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 3: I'm six foot eight, I'm three hundred and fifty pound. 58 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 3: I can't too there's no other job I'm gonna get 59 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 3: paid to do anything working in an office. I can't 60 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: even fit into a cubicle. But the idea that once 61 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 3: you start talking about you're not having fun if you're 62 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 3: twenty nine years old and you don't feel like you're 63 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 3: having fun as a professional athlete, that's a red flag. 64 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 3: That's two red flags. If this was the seventies, that 65 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 3: would be a fanny flag. 66 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 4: It just means that you should really reconsider where you 67 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 4: are in life and whether or not you want to continue, 68 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 4: because it's scary when you go out there and your 69 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 4: heart's not in it. You could get hurt. 70 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 3: And it sounds like he's taking a beating and it 71 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 3: is weighing on him. That's why when guys retire early 72 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 3: or whatever, Right, Sam, I mean, uh, I'm not thinking 73 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 3: of with the rams. Uh uh Donald? Aaron Donald, Aaron Donald, 74 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 3: I'm sorry I said Aaronda. 75 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,559 Speaker 4: I respect. He won a super Bowl, he got paid. 76 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 3: He's like, I'm good, thank you. He had years ago. 77 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 3: He looks great now, he's happy with his family. I'm good. 78 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 3: And Joe Burry can say whatever you want. Took the 79 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bengals to the super Bowl. 80 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 4: They didn't win. 81 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 3: You can't tell me he wasn't a great quarterback and 82 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 3: his numbers and all this other stuff and what he 83 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 3: was able to do before he showed up there. 84 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 4: They couldn't get to the they couldn't win. 85 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 3: A playoff game. They were oh to seven in playoff games. 86 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 3: So he accomplished something. He didn't win a championship. But 87 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 3: if you're not having fun at twenty nine in the 88 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 3: National Football League, I'm telling you. 89 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 4: Joe Burrow retire. So you touched on a couple of things. 90 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: The first thing that jumped out to me when he 91 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: was talking about that Rod was brain. He said, you 92 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,239 Speaker 1: know all this ways on the brain and the body, 93 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: specifically with the brain, that's the mental part. That's the 94 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: mental part that a lot of the fans don't ever 95 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: get to see her here because we look at the 96 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: physical Aaron Donald looks like a specimen. Me and Rob 97 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: g were just talking about that a couple of weeks ago, 98 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: because he always posting something on socials and him working 99 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: out still, people are. 100 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 4: Like, man, come to my team, come to my team. 101 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 4: You're in great shake. It's the mentals. 102 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: It's the do I want to put up with going 103 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: back to back with injuries, going through the rehab, going 104 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: through the mental anguish of am I going to be 105 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: the same even when I rehab well, I come back 106 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 1: to saying. It's the traveling, It's the first time your 107 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: kids say, Daddy, why can't you ever drop me off 108 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: of school? It's all of these things that come in 109 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: with being a professional. It ain't just the it ain't 110 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: just Sundays they sign up for just Sundays, right, It's 111 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 1: all the other parts. It's the money and what it 112 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: comes with it, and family and cousins out the blue 113 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: calling you, and you know the challenges with having contracts 114 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: and disputes what organizations, and your teammates wants to get 115 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: paid and you got to speak for him. 116 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 4: All of that ways on you. 117 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: And when you're Joe Burrow and you've been dealing with 118 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 1: injury after injury from college to the pros, you're in 119 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: a bad team. You make them good, but they're still 120 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 1: a bad organization. You're mad at them. You probably want 121 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: to leave, but you also are one of those guys 122 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 1: who want to gut it out. It's personal. I want 123 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: to stay and battle through it. Your agent's probably saying 124 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: you need to leave and go win somewhere else. All 125 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: that stuff weighs on you, especially when you're just sitting 126 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: there and you're injured and you can't be at your best. 127 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: So I absolutely get can understand what Joe Burrow's going through. 128 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: I would advise him to take the rest of this 129 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: season off. You're nicked up, you're banged up, you're playing 130 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: with metal sheet in the bottom of your shoe. Have 131 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: a seat, take some time to reflect, deal with your 132 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: own you know, personal life. Demand just had a birthday, 133 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: yesterday's twenty nine. Reflect with your family, reflect on your 134 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: priorities where you are. Take it two months away and 135 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: come back and talk to me. If I'm the president 136 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: of the team, general manager of the owners, take some 137 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: time away. You need to get away for a little 138 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: bit and reflect. But yeah, man, a lot of people, 139 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: a lot of the average person doesn't know that side 140 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: of what these pro athletes go through. It ain't just 141 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: the physical. It ain't just the skills they got that. 142 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: I look at Barry Sanders, you know this, You were there. 143 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: Barry Sanders can still have played another two three years, 144 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: broken records. He just had enough. Megatron had another two 145 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: or three years. Just had enough. And they's a common 146 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: denominator between the three guys, Joe Burrow, Megatron and Barry. 147 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: They were in bad organizations. There are teams that weren't 148 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: winning teams call. 149 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 4: The Cincinnati Bengals better. Now they're not the Lions bad. 150 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 3: But what I mean is, I'll just I'll push back 151 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 3: on that he went to the Super Bowl, like I 152 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 3: just can't. I can't equate Barry Sanders being with the 153 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 3: Lions all that time and Kellan Johnson when that team 154 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 3: couldn't win any game. They were winning two and three 155 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 3: games a year. I get to wear and tear on 156 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 3: that this team not that long ago was in the 157 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. They went, they went to Kansas City and 158 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 3: beat him twice, beat the Chiefs in their heyday, and. 159 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: That what I'm saying is that was the anomaly. Them 160 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: not being good is more common, and I think all 161 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: of that just weighs on you. But again, we went 162 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: down the history of his injuries. Man, I think he 163 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: needs to step away, take a couple of months, reflect, 164 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: get healthy, and then come back and make a decision. 165 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: But again, you mentioned Andrew Luck. Andrew Luck did it 166 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 1: moved on? Now he's an a d somewhere in. 167 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 4: The general call him, but but it sounds like Andrew 168 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 4: Luck before he retired. Let's just be honest, and that. 169 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: Everybody don't want to be Tom Brady playing in forty 170 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: five like that ain't. No, nobody ain't built for that. 171 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 3: And you don't want your brain scrambled and all the 172 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 3: other stuff that could come with it. And Brady was 173 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 3: being protected, he was, he didn't they I saw who 174 00:08:59,040 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 3: was who put the number? 175 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 4: Us saw? 176 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 3: Was it a schefter had the number? Like he's played 177 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 3: in twelve or thirteen games left in Andrew Luck and 178 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 3: has like forty more sacks or something. You have the number, 179 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: rob g. 180 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, right, He said it during 181 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 5: the broadcast, Actually put it here so I could remember 182 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 5: to say because it was a wild Statye. Joe Burrow 183 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 5: has played seventy three career games. He's been sacked two 184 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 5: hundred and three times. For context, Andrew Luck played eighty 185 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 5: six games before retiring and was sacked one hundred and 186 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 5: seventy four times. 187 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 4: Okay, and we were saying he was running for his 188 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 4: life a lot. YEP. 189 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: I remember saying heang if Andrew Lucker get more protection, 190 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: he would do more. So, Yeah, all that weighs on 191 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: you figure to being literally all that three hundred pound 192 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: men tackling you everything. 193 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 5: And the way Joe Burrow plays, he's not the kind 194 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 5: of guy who's like payon man, I'm gonna fall down 195 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 5: in our game. No, he gonna get it goes for 196 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 5: every single yard. He holds it as long as possible 197 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 5: to get as deep down the field as he can. 198 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 5: So his style of play lends itself to taking shots 199 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 5: like that. 200 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: Troy Aikman, Yeah, Troy, and Troy Acman was trying to 201 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: get Michael Irvan and him down the field and was 202 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: taking some licks, So it wouldn't surprise me. I don't 203 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: think he's gonna retire. I definitely think he's gonna take 204 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: a little so bad I think he should retire. I 205 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: hear you once you start talking about that and question it. 206 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 3: When when somebody said they're not having fun a twenty 207 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 3: nine year old making a gazillion dollars playing a sport, 208 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 3: right seriously, Like like a lot of people gotta go 209 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 3: to work, is sit in traffic and they don't have 210 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 3: enough money to pay their bills.

Obviously, the 233 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 7: Warriors set that record some years ago and they're on 234 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 7: track to do that. 235 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 1: Some people think they might actually beat him. I'm inclined 236 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: to actually think they may just do that, consider how 237 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: good they are and they haven't even played their best 238 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: basketball yet. They haven't even had their full unit. It's like, 239 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: this guy's okay, that guy's all right. J dob ain't 240 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 1: even played in weeks, Okay, he's back. Well SGA have 241 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: a night off. Like, I don't even know what they're 242 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: gonna look like when they're fully locked in. We're in December. 243 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: The NBA season doesn't even start till Christmas Day. We 244 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: typically say that's when the season starts, and they already 245 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: look like a shoe in. 246 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 4: This is absolutely great. 247 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: If you're a high school basketball coach, this is the 248 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: team you would sow your team. Hey, guys, before we 249 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: go out there on this court and practice that, I 250 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: want you to watch this team. They're committed, they're all 251 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: for one. They play hard nosed defense. Everybody knows their role. 252 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: They don't care who gets the start. You know, this 253 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: guy's in, this guy's out, doesn't matter. They're exactly what 254 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: you want from a team. But they're not at all 255 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 1: what you want from a league. And if you're Adam Silver, 256 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: this isn't not great. 257 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 4: Rob. 258 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: I've been covering this league since I feel like you 259 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: right now, since when was I about ten twelve years old. 260 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: I've been watching this league my whole life, and including 261 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan years, I never went into a season and 262 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: at this point where you go, oh, it's a shoe in. 263 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: They're winning this thing, right, because even in the Jordan years, 264 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 1: you say, all right, well Charles Barkley with the so 265 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: this looks great. He's the MVP. This could be something, 266 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: all right, Maybe the Utah Jazz gets some revenge this year. 267 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: Can Shawn Camp and Gary Pate? You could find some 268 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: ways to maybe add another team or two. We are 269 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 1: all hoping that Denver makes a thing of this thing. 270 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: Otherwise it's absolutely a rap. So Adam Sie, I don't know. 271 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: You gotta the league gotta come together like a reverse 272 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: Chris Paul. Remember they said no Chris Paul can't go 273 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: join the Lakers and Kobe Bryant. They needed like a 274 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: reverse of that and absolutely send somebody somewhere. Yanni's gotta 275 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 1: come with Luca and Lebron or go to another team, 276 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: form up with with with Wimby, because this is this 277 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: is not good for business. It's great for them, it's 278 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 1: great for Sam Presty, is great for the Thunder, but 279 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: this is bad for basketball and the entertainment since it's 280 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,599 Speaker 1: a shoe in. Every single basketball fan I talked to 281 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: is like, yo, does anybody even have a shot out? 282 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 1: They're blowing everybody out twenty thirty forty points and I've 283 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: never seen anything like this, and it's not great. You 284 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: need villains, you need rivalries, you need be you need 285 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: something that makes it compelling. The Thunders are the best 286 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: team by far, and there's nothing compelling about them, and 287 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: it's a compliment in that they're such a great team. 288 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,439 Speaker 1: But you need some entertainment value in Adam Silver. I 289 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: don't know, like I say, he's gonna to pull something off, 290 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: whisper to somebody or y'all need you all to make 291 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: a trade, put somebody else somewhere with something, because this 292 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: ain't rob I've never seen this where it's such a 293 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: shoe and a lock in unless SGA, you know, gollnt 294 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: he want to say it, but like a bad injury 295 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: where he's out. 296 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 4: For the season. 297 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: Other than that, they can lose another star and still 298 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: be okay. So this is just I've never been here where. 299 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: In December tenth, eleventh, I'm already ready to throw the 300 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: tiland on the season. 301 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 4: We know who's winning. 302 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 3: I disagree there, there's a long way to go. Denver 303 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 3: took them the seven games last year. I'm not gonna 304 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 3: sit here and go I don't care what the record is. 305 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 3: You could have a bad week in the NBA, or 306 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 3: have a misshot or some situation. We saw the Pacers 307 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 3: last year down by fourteen points, were a minute two 308 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 3: minutes to was it like thirteen forty to go through? 309 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 3: And I am down by fourteen on the road and 310 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 3: win that game and change everything. So I'm not there 311 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,239 Speaker 3: that I'm not crowning them the champs in early December. 312 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 3: But I will say this, the OKC Thunder are the 313 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 3: worst basketball team for the NBA. They are worse than 314 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 3: even the Halem Globetrotters. They were a bad version of 315 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 3: the Halem Globe Trotters. You know, they used to win 316 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 3: all the time. They always beat the Generals, Washington Generals. 317 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 3: The difference is we knew the routine, we knew the script. 318 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 3: They were supposed to win. OKC does absolutely zero for 319 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 3: the NBA because there's no competition. It ain't about beefs 320 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 3: and all that about competition. Who's watching a game that's 321 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 3: forty or thirty or forty or fifty points. Nobody in 322 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 3: their right mind is going to watch that, So the 323 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 3: NBA doesn't get any juice from them winning and it's 324 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 3: exciting and oh my god, they made another three pointer 325 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 3: at the buzzer. These games are done at half, so 326 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 3: people are looking for Golden Girls reruns, so that doesn't work. 327 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 4: They're a small market to begin with. There's nothing here 328 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 4: to like. 329 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 3: It's as bad as it gets for the NBA and 330 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 3: everybody who thinks that winning all the time is great. 331 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 3: Let me give you a history lesson the. 332 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 4: Celtics during their run when they won eight championships in 333 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 4: a row in the fifties and sixties and all that. 334 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 3: Guess who's attendance dipped during that run. Go look at 335 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 3: the sixties sixty one season, their tickets. You thought they 336 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 3: had won two in a row back to back, and 337 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 3: they were going for their third title, and en route 338 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 3: to eight in a row. 339 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 4: People stopped going, didn't buy tickets. I saw it, I 340 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 4: already saw them win. 341 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 3: How about the Atlanta Braves of the nineties won fourteen 342 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 3: straight National League East titles, Kelvin, people stopped going to 343 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 3: playoff games for the bread. 344 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 4: I saw it already I've been there. It can happen. 345 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 3: Winning all the time with no competition, no press, pushback 346 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 3: is the worst thing you could have. Add to that 347 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 3: a small market, Add to that a player people are 348 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 3: indifferent about. No one is like, oh I can't stand 349 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 3: a SGA or he guys must see TV. 350 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 4: It's indifferent. 351 00:17:52,760 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 3: So OKC Thunder are the worst basketball team for the NBA. 352 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 3: They get nothing from this, no juice. I don't know 353 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 3: who's watching people in Oka se Okay, ain't nobody. Ain't 354 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 3: no basketball fans watching no forty nine point blowoff. 355 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: I'm sorry they The Thunder is the perfect name because 356 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:23,199 Speaker 1: it's like a rain cloud on the NBA. It's a 357 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: rain cloud on the NBA because again it's and I 358 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: mean it's in the most complimentary way. They played the 359 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: absolute best basketball. Every person knows their role. Don't care 360 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: if I play five minutes or twenty five tonight, don't 361 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,479 Speaker 1: care who got the shot. Everybody's playing defense, taking charges, 362 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: moving the ball around. We got a closer in SGA, 363 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 1: We got a number two in JAD. Matter of fact, 364 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: I have a CJDU for weeks. We'll be okay. 365 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 4: We got check. 366 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 1: They play amazing brand of basketball as far as winning games. 367 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: And again I said it, if I was a high 368 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: scored or a coach in college, this is the team 369 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: I will try to model my team after. 370 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 4: However, the difference. 371 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,199 Speaker 1: Between when we're seeing with them and the difference when 372 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 1: we saw what the Warriors did it or the Bulls 373 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: number one. The Bulls had Michael Jordan. It didn't get 374 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: any bigger. But they also had Dennis Rodman, right character. 375 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 4: You knew what he was. You just wild. 376 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: You don't know the game, Zoe, and they were in 377 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: games I'm going where you're going. They had to hit 378 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: some buzzer beaters, they had to be in some whoop. 379 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 1: I don't know how we pulled that off. You go 380 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: to that Warriors Seane. They were in a lot of games. 381 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: They close it out, closed at the end. They also 382 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: were compelling. We'd never seen anything like Steph Curry before. 383 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: Remember this is early step Now we're used to it. 384 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: This is early Steph, this is early Clay. We had 385 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,679 Speaker 1: a nickname for him. They were the Splash Brothers. We 386 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: had Draymond Green, fighting people, stumping people, chaos. We were 387 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 1: familiar with Steve Kurt. There was something new be seen 388 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 1: with this Thunder team. Not a single buddy of mine 389 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: or anybody that text me, yo, you watching this thunder game. 390 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 3: That's why I said it did the worst nobody. This 391 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 3: is the worst basketball team for the NBA, and it 392 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 3: just it's it's their fault for being really good. And 393 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 3: I understand it's not compelling. It's not without the compelling part, 394 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 3: without uh, the competition part sports. That's what separates sports 395 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 3: from everything else. When we watch movies, we know who 396 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 3: the good guy is and we know who the bad 397 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 3: guy is, right, and the good guy always wins, right, 398 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 3: But we don't know how we get to that point, 399 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 3: so we watch it. 400 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 4: But you know, yeah, but sports is totally different. 401 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 3: The whole idea is that we don't know what's gonna happen. 402 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 3: That's what keeps bringing us back. It's the upsets. Oh 403 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 3: my god, I can't believe what I just saw. I 404 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 3: can't believe that Rojas in the home run with one 405 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 3: out in the night for the Dodgers. Nobody could have scripted, Dad, nobody. No, 406 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 3: I don't believe it. No, it's unbelieving, you know what 407 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 3: I mean. 408 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you brought up Tyrres Haliburton, who thought he 409 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: would be the star of summer. Hitting game winner after 410 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: game winner after game like that was unbelievable. 411 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 3: That's what makes sports. It's exciting. This Thunder team is 412 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 3: a bore, is a snooze fest. I'm not interested, and 413 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 3: I'm not taking away they're great. They twenty five and 414 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 3: one whatever their record is now, and I get it, 415 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 3: but I'm sorry. I'm here for the competition. I don't 416 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 3: want to see Hallam Globe Trotter's games against the Washington Generals. 417 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 3: I don't want to see that. That doesn't entertain me, 418 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 3: It doesn't interest me. It doesn't make me feel any 419 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 3: kind of way. That's what it feels like. It feels 420 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 3: like a bad. 421 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 4: HALLM. 422 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:43,160 Speaker 3: Globe Trotter is Washington Generals thing that we're watching. Sorry, 423 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 3: it should count me out. And if it would be 424 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 3: different if Sga was Wenby. 425 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: Let's say this was the Spurs and Winby was just 426 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: going crazy thirty three at night. And because you he's 427 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: a freak, right, he's something with unicorn. We never seen 428 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: this before, so it would be compelling. You'd be like, man, 429 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 1: are you seeing with this seven foot six guys doing 430 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: every night? You'd be talking about it every night, and 431 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: this is crazy. But because SGA is their best player, 432 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: and he just goes about his business in a workman 433 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: like fashion. 434 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 4: You don't talk about it. 435 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,400 Speaker 1: Nobody ever had a single one of your friends ever 436 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: sent you a SGA, a reel on DM, on Instagram 437 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: or text. 438 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 4: And he just goes about his business. 439 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 1: He wins, he's quiet, he's chill, and it's again, that's 440 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,479 Speaker 1: what you actually like if you're a coach or if 441 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: you're you know, modeling a team after it. But you 442 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: want some juice, you want something. They don't even have 443 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,640 Speaker 1: a nickname, usually got a nickname. When you're this good Rob, 444 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: I keep telling everybody that you're the Bad Boys. You know, 445 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: You're the Lake Show, You're the Showtime Lakers, You're the 446 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: something rob Z what. 447 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 4: You guy guys. 448 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 5: Obviously he's early in the season, but if the season 449 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 5: ended today, the Oklahoma City Thunder would have a net 450 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 5: rating of plus seventeen point two, which means they win 451 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 5: each game by an average of seventeen points per game. 452 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 5: The previous high in NBA history was a Jordan Bulls 453 00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 5: team nineteen ninety six thirteen point four. That gap about 454 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 5: four points will be the difference between the seventy two 455 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 5: win Bulls and the twenty was at twenty twenty. 456 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 4: Milwaukee Buck twenty twenty one, Blauckey Bucks with the honest. 457 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 8: So the gap between Oklahoma City and arguably the greatest 458 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 8: team of all time is the same gap between what 459 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 8: had been the greatest team of all time and a 460 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 8: nondescript champion from four years ago. 461 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 4: Right, that's how much better they are. 462 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 3: But it's but it also tells you why this isn't compelling. 463 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 4: It just isn't. And I'm not. 464 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 3: If you're in Oklahoma City and that's all you have going, 465 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 3: I understand it. You feel great. They win every night 466 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 3: for the rest of NBA America. No thank you, no, 467 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 3: no thank you. And it's not just their fault. Nobody 468 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 3: can see to come up with a defense or do anything. 469 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:55,360 Speaker 3: And when when you don't have competition, that's what makes 470 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 3: sports special. 471 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 4: Gotta have competition. 472 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live edition of The Odd Couple 473 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 2: with Rob Parker and kelvin Washington weekdays at seven pm 474 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 2: Eastern four pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the 475 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 2: iHeartRadio app. 476 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 5: Philip rivers and looks like he's gonna start this week 477 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 5: just the full disclosure that he's been preparing him, not 478 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 5: Riley Leonard to be the starter of this Sunday against Seattle. 479 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 5: And you guys mentioned he's forty four years old, hasn't 480 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 5: played in the NBA since Louisiana, NFL since Louisiana purchase. 481 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 4: There you go. 482 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 5: So it's got a lot of folks like, hey, if 483 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 5: they're asking him what they're asking me, including ESPN personality 484 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,679 Speaker 5: former NFL MVP Cam Newton, who talked about on his 485 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 5: own podcast this is the character and he is none 486 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 5: too happy. 487 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 4: Take a listener, hatter, you know this almost like a 488 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 4: slap in my face. 489 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 9: All the things that you're doing in media, do you 490 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 9: come off like you're available?

Thing he's turned Into Dwight. 578 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 3: Howard the reason That Dwight howard didn't make that list 579 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 3: top seventy. 580 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 4: Five what happened To Dwight howard got. Goofy he got. 581 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 3: Goofy and that's Where Cam newton, is whether people want 582 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 3: to admit it or. 583 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 4: Not AND i think when people look at, it they 584 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 4: don't think he's.

Quarterbacks there's nothing 589 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 3: but bad quarterbacks all over the. Place and he didn't 590 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 3: get a phone.
