So, uh, there's Tony Romo news, there's Tom 0:01:03.680 --> 0:01:06.840 Brady stories, and there's a Baker Mayfield thing we got 0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:09.480 to break down, so lots of quarterback stuff today, but 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:14.000 before we get to quarterback, Yeah. 0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:14.920 Could I, which Rich still hasn't seen on. 0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:18.440 Netflix, could I be excited for a second? Danny about receiver, 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:22.440 my receiver Deebo Samuel you had. 0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:25.480 Thrown his last career forty nine er pass at Super 0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:26.240 Bowl Radio Row. 0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:28.679 We called it out, We called it Dueebo to Deebo. 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:31.760 Remember that Rich stew who passed to him at Super Bowl. 0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:35.160 I remember something was wrong. I knew things weren't good 0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:38.600 at the time in the bay because any San Francisco 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:40.080 forty nine ers question I asked. 0:01:39.959 --> 0:01:43.319 Him, he was always like yeah, yeah, go niner. 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:45.080 Yeah. He looked at me with a look like, yo, 0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:46.720 my man, I don't know if this is going to work. 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:51.000 Back man one year seven mil? Good for debo? Am 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:54.680 I glorifying the debo that was five years ago? As 0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:57.640 Dan Byer immediately not head Dan saying yes. And I 0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:00.880 trust Dan, especially with that sweet new fate he's got 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:03.560 going out, Yeah, haircut looking tight, got haircut confidence. Yeah, 0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:06.440 he's got the haircut confidence. But I looked his stats 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:08.920 up from last year and he looked like pretty decent. 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:11.760 Let's know, he was banged up, but I looked it up. 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:13.400 It was better than I thought. I don't think he's 0:02:13.440 --> 0:02:15.480 the explosive like I'm gonna be a running back and 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:18.480 a wide receiver Deebo Samuel, But I think one year 0:02:18.639 --> 0:02:22.600 seven mil is like bargain shopping. That's like you know 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.280 when you find like a really nice shired like Northstrom rack, Yeah, 0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:26.920 and you're like, you know this, this is like a 0:02:27.080 --> 0:02:29.160 two hundred dollars shirt. I can get it for thirty bucks. 0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.400 Yeah, you know what. It screamed to me. Parasol's not 0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:32.359 playing this season. 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:35.959 Uh Piarsol might not play this season, but if he, 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:40.120 if Ricky Pearsall is out for real, Danny j Isn't 0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:41.920 it nice to know that you have Deebo Samuel there, 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:45.919 who's familiar with the Shanahanan offense, who's familiar with brock Purty, 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:49.240 and all his teammates seemed thrilled he's back. So when 0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:51.960 you see guys like McCaffrey and Kittle and everyone's saying like, yo, 0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:54.560 Debo's back, welcome back, that's our dog. Like you don't 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:56.800 you don't find out to be nice? Oh yeah, that's 0:02:56.840 --> 0:03:01.200 that's definitely a good sign and not a low costal. 0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:04.160 At low cost, it's a one year commitment to bring 0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:06.560 your guy back. You know what he brings. He wasn't 0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:11.120 terrible with the Commanders, So one year, seven million, forty 0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.079 nine ers are the team to be. We'll discuss it, 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:14.960 because that's what Rich was saying off the air, But 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:17.360 why don't we kick it off with the QB trifecta 0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:20.360 speaking of football, because those are the biggest stories right now. 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:23.880 I do want to say that when we were defending 0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:27.640 if we were defending Tony Rowo, if that's how you 0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:31.160 took it, remember we prefaced it with based on the 0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:34.680 information we have right now. Remember we said that, and 0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:37.920 we were also very clear to say there's never any 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.760 circumstance where you should be boozing and driving and riding right. 0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:43.960 And then then you heard speculation of open containers. I 0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:45.720 was like, yeah, but is that real? 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:46.240 I don't know. 0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:49.360 And you know, I want to say that everything we 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.800 were saying was at the time, and I'm not necessarily 0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:56.880 changing my stance by any means. But for them to 0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:01.320 sort of now put him on hold and bring in 0:04:01.600 --> 0:04:05.080 what that says a lot. That's story Number one Tony 0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:07.720 Romo is on Lee for his role at CBS Sports 0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:11.400 until further notice. The network already announced that JJ Watt 0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:16.320 will replace Romo and work alongside Jim Nantz and Wolfson 0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:20.640 for the time being. Hello friends. So that's a big announcement, 0:04:20.760 --> 0:04:25.800 especially when I feel like the temperature of social media 0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.240 and the news sort of was lenient on Romo. I 0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:30.720 don't think anyone was really looking at it like, yeah, man, 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:32.919 this guy was a mess. So that says to me, 0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:36.280 there's more things or as we gain more info, as 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:38.960 I was saying pointed out the other day, Colin Cowherd 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:42.240 likes to say, like, you know, you could change your 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:45.560 opinion with new information. It's true, but I don't think 0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:48.120 I really have to yet. But it is concerning, like, 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:51.120 all right, why are they so quick to do that? 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.159 It could be one of two things they want to 0:04:53.160 --> 0:04:55.880 move forward from him anyway, And I know Dan Byer 0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:58.040 was talking about that today, so I'd love his insight 0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:02.520 on that. Or there's more to this story than we know, right, 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.480 just like the Shanahan story. I do believe there's something 0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:07.359 half we don't know about this story. 0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:09.000 Maybe that has a little bit to do with this 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:13.560 that they're reading and taking a temperature read of the room. 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:17.000 How are they moving forward already? Right, they didn't fire him, right, 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:21.719 Leaf could be a preseason game, and then he's back 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:25.919 for a week one. You know, a time out. They 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:27.840 may have just really, you know, put a little kit 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:30.480 in the timeout, like put your time out, put down 0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:33.560 your iPad for no more iPad the rest of the night. Right, 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:35.600 I'm gonna have to quote the great Dan Bayer. He's 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:38.839 adjusting his microphone. He's looking confident today. He's got a 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.120 sweet new summer trim up. Poor Dan Buyer. And I 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:44.120 say this because for the last eight minutes now, I 0:05:44.120 --> 0:05:46.839 feel as though Dan's been trying to reconstruct a microphone 0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:49.039 in a studio and it's like remember the scene with 0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:51.279 OJ and Naked Gun where everything is. 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:54.040 Somebody get that man a Janet Jackson headset. 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:59.320 He some WD forty, a screwdriver, and a drill stat Well, 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:00.760 he repairs microphone. 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:01.800 It fell off the handle. 0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:05.200 I know that he said something along the lines of 0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:08.840 if it was just the temporary thing, wouldn't they have 0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:10.960 just brought some ancillary dude in to fill in. So 0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:13.479 they brought in the next guy. They brought in a 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:18.640 potential replacement. JJ Watt could be the potential next guy 0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:20.720 that they wanted to bring in. What you're saying is 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:24.159 why bring in the next in line? What I'm saying 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:26.120 is it could be one of two reasons. There's more 0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:27.839 to the story, Like I don't even know if that 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:29.919 open container thing is real or not. Do we know 0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:33.400 that either there's more to the story or they're using 0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:37.479 this as a reason or like the last straw to 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:41.320 move forward, Because in the past few years, it does 0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:45.960 seem like when it comes to his broadcasting, there's been 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:50.440 a shift, right, Like we went from loving Tony Romo 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:54.600 to criticizing Tony Romo. He went from no, stra damis 0:06:54.839 --> 0:07:00.720 right to yeah, he's irritating, Like, like the the sentiment 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:04.520 on Tony Romo really did switch. He never bothered me same, 0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:06.200 but it did go. You know, we have a good 0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:08.400 read of what people are saying and the pulse of, 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:11.520 like we said, social media and what the boys are 0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:16.240 buzzing about at the barber shop. That is definitely the sentiment. 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:20.680 So maybe this is their reason or excuse to, Hey, 0:07:20.720 --> 0:07:25.520 throw jj Watten air and see what happens. Sometimes all 0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:29.040 you need is a little little something, right exactly. We've 0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:30.920 seen it at the workplace, You've seen it in life. 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:33.600 Someone wants to break up with someone, or someone wants 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:37.400 to get someone fired. This is the out. There's an 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:40.240 out sometimes, right, it could be the out because if 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:42.080 it was just a temporary thing, you just bring in 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:45.440 some schmoke, some regular, some other guy. What's up, Danny g. 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:49.480 According to the Los Angeles Times yesterday, an open container 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:52.480 of alcohol was found inside Romo's vehicle at the time 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:54.000 of his arrest. 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:55.200 That changes things, it says. 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:57.960 According to a new citation released by the Milwaukee County 0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:00.400 Sheriff's office, they found it on the passenger side of 0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:01.080 his black cheet. 0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:04.920 Now we didn't know that little tidbit of information until 0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:08.120 the end of our discussion when the story first started popping, 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:10.960 and they were like, all right, well if that's true. 0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:15.120 Now that we know that that's true, it does change things, right, 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:18.880 it does because the guy who was saying he had 0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:23.080 no drinks on leave, he's on leave. Yeah, I don't 0:08:23.080 --> 0:08:24.560 even know how to read that to be honest. 0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:25.239 On leave. 0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:29.160 On leave is you know, I think sometimes this happens 0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:31.480 when when I hear on leave, I think that that 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:34.000 feels like isn't that it's on his terms. No, I 0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:36.160 don't know that means I think they're able to put 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:39.079 someone on leave. Yeah, our video guy Spot just threw 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:41.800 something on the screen. I think he was insinuating. Am 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.560 I wrong by saying this is Spot's working remotely today? 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:47.040 He said a lot of times when someone does something 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.679 this happens too with like sex addiction, when when it's 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:52.800 a you're sort of trying to get the temperature of 0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:55.920 the public. On leaves a good temporary place to put someone, 0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:57.960 like we're not going to fire him. 0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:02.520 Administrative leave, administrative leave or some type of leave is 0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:05.160 always a good way to be like, all right, is 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:07.240 everyone gonna forget about this and not caring a couple 0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:08.640 of weeks that we could just go back to business 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:09.520 or is this going to linger? 0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:13.319 Because if it lingers or issues like if he has 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:17.240 an issue, they can't jump the gun to fire somebody 0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:17.560 like that? 0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:17.959 Right? 0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:22.800 Is that? What is that a safety measure? But also 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:26.520 it's not a fireable fence unless, of course, you know, 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:28.640 he sees his dating court. Maybe I don't know. I 0:09:28.679 --> 0:09:32.240 think the open container changes changes everything. Even though I 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:34.640 feel like I feel like he did a good job 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.400 with everything else, And I still don't feel like we 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:39.679 have clarity on that because the other some other news 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:43.640 outlets keep using the word allegedly had an open container. 0:09:43.760 --> 0:09:45.720 So there's been back and forth on that. 0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:48.520 We need g That's why I'm confused on that. So 0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:53.040 that's story number one, Tony Romo, Big story, Story number two. 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:57.559 Baker Mayfield is the QB trifecta, whichever one you want 0:09:57.559 --> 0:10:00.520 to chime in on. By all means, it's a casual Friday, 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:02.880 some juicy stuff. We're just trying to get to the 0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:05.000 bottom of it. Eight seven seven ninety nine. Oh Fox, 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:07.080 Oh d you see Dan Buyer went to a radio shack. 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:11.960 You bought a new Microphoni's back. I don't want to 0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:15.360 steal your thought or put words in your mouth, but 0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:17.880 I kind of agree, like with the JJ Watt side 0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:18.280 of things. 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:20.360 Yeah, there's a little bit of history as well with 0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:22.960 CBS in terms of if you just look at who 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:26.880 the broadcast partner of JJ Watt has in football, it's 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:30.280 Iron Eagle. Iron Eagle replaced Jim Nantz as the number 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.960 one voice on college basketball when Nance decided to retire. 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:34.720 I don't think Nance is going to be doing this forever. 0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:37.079 I think that the last thing that NANCE will broadcast 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:39.520 is golf. You'll do the Masters and the PGA Championship 0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:40.760 and that's it. But I think at some point I'll 0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:44.080 probably say goodbye to football. So that allows another number 0:10:44.160 --> 0:10:46.720 one person to move up, which Iron Eagle is their 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:48.880 number two right now. So if you have want in 0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:51.760 that spot and he excels, then it makes for another 0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:55.440 transition and you move vote forward for the next decade 0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:58.920 with a duo that people are really excited about right 0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:01.040 now is number two. They could've gotten Charles Davis, They 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:04.120 could have moved Adam Archiletta up. Remember when Joe Buck 0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:06.920 used to do the World Series for Fox. You know 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:09.800 who Fox put in there, Tom Brenneman. Tom Brenneman was 0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:12.200 like fifth on the list. It wasn't like they bumped 0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:13.880 up the number two guy and put him to number 0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:16.680 one during that time. So I think this really makes 0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:20.440 sense for CBS, and I think that they probably don't 0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:24.040 want to be in the Tony Romo business anymore, at least, 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:26.280 you know, considering what's happened. 0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.440 Do you think they were already not sure if they 0:11:28.440 --> 0:11:30.839 wanted to be in the Tony Romo business before this, Yes, 0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:33.920 and this was the final straw, the easy out and J. J. 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:37.800 Watt is such a likable guy and is so popular 0:11:38.000 --> 0:11:42.440 and hits to another younger generation, which I think, not 0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:45.440 that he's that much, you know, younger than Tony Romo, 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:46.280 but still you agree. 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.320 But I also think Tony Romo is a likable guy, 0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:50.800 even though he got some hate in the past few years. 0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:54.920 Have we heard our last, Jim, No, not. 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:58.960 If we talked about it a couple of days ago Cove. 0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:01.160 You know, he started out hot shot out of a 0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:04.920 cannon and then instead of climbing up, it feels like 0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:05.920 he's kind of been. 0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:11.480 Okay, So that's the first story Tony Romo. Oh you remember, 0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:14.839 like you said, Tony Romo was was again like a 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:16.880 no stre damis in the booth that first year and 0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:19.920 everyone was fascinated. And I don't know what happened. 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.240 If he just that just wore on people. 0:12:22.360 --> 0:12:24.800 Remember he'd be like, yeah, Jim, you know what's gonna 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:27.680 happen here. The linebacker is gonna blitz and they're gonna 0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:29.120 be there is an out pattern. 0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:31.480 Because any he really started to lean into it, and 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:33.720 he would be wrong more than half the time. And 0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:36.240 you know, you. We saw the memes, we saw the gifts, 0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:38.319 we saw all the stories about ah man, this this 0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:39.480 act is getting tired. 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:44.520 Oh man, so grand opening, grand closing possible for Tony Romo. 0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:47.760 JJ Watt is like you see the recent videos where 0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:51.120 instead of walking straight line, one foot in front of 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.400 the other, he's doing quarterback drills. Have you guys seen them? 0:12:53.520 --> 0:13:02.240 I have seen those are frank, I'm just kidding. I 0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:04.640 know they're AI but and I know that's silly. Is 0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:06.480 a serious thing to get behind the wheel with an 0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:07.600 open container. 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:09.360 But do you think that would impress the officer? 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:09.520 Though? 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:10.800 If you start, if you busted. 0:13:10.559 --> 0:13:12.120 Out the deck, Yeah, should have did it. 0:13:12.160 --> 0:13:13.240 There are certain things though. 0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:16.080 We were talking earlier this week about the body cam 0:13:16.120 --> 0:13:19.559 footage and I hope to never be in a situation 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:24.080 I don't drink. I don't, so I think I'm good. However, 0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:27.400 what I didn't realize was when the officer goes, I'm 0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:31.000 going to demonstrate this three times, you have to do 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:33.440 it nine times. I'm like, oh my goodness, you know, 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:36.000 like you have to do this twenty seven times. Like 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:38.160 it was just like she would show like a short 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:39.600 bit and he had to do it. That long to 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.800 be able to no idea. 0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:44.280 Bonehead and safe to say that I am. That's fine, 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.040 I'll take it. But a lot of these tests are 0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:48.839 kind of difficult, especially for a guy who has a 0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:52.080 bad hip, bad knees, a few injuries, Like can you 0:13:52.160 --> 0:13:54.160 do it? I didn't see them do this, but like 0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:57.160 if someone said, recite the alphabet backwards, could you guys 0:13:57.160 --> 0:13:57.480 do that? 0:13:57.640 --> 0:13:57.760 No? 0:13:57.800 --> 0:13:59.960 I could, No, I take forever, you know what I mean. 0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:02.160 So it's like some of these things are ridiculous. There's 0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:04.920 a video, by the way, if you're watching live now 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:07.960 or streaming live on YouTube at Covino on rich FSR. 0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:10.240 That's the AI thing that could have got him out 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:12.920 of this whole mess. I love that, but he's dying 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:16.960 with Dak Prescott. I think some of these things breifooble. 0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:19.440 But you're right, there is a weird level of confusion, 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:20.760 like all right, well you're gonna do is You're gonna 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:23.480 put your arm here, do this? Take nine steps foot? 0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:26.080 And I don't. I just have I feel like if anyone, 0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:29.680 even if you're not drunk, you'd probably nervously confirm. So again, 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:32.040 so again, you want me to go, I'm starting those 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:34.400 moments right, put yourself in those moments. They feel like 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:37.200 bad dreams and you're like, is this really happening right now? 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:40.120 It feels like a nightmare, and you get all confused, 0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:43.200 and you know you're making weird eye contact. You're nervous 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:46.840 saying like that. At one point he's like, did I 0:14:46.880 --> 0:14:50.120 do good? No? Yeah, And he's Tony Romol, so he's 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:52.560 thinking this is going to be a press nightmare, right. 0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:54.600 So he's got a lot going on in his brain, 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:58.480 which makes even more hard to follow. And you know 0:14:59.160 --> 0:15:01.160 that that's why I you were I don't want to 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:02.920 say quick to defend him, but we didn't have all 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:06.440 the details. It's getting a little stick here now. Baker 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:08.680 Mayfield is the other story. And we could simply say 0:15:08.800 --> 0:15:14.240 or sum it up like this, rich Baker Mayfield three years, 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:16.960 one hundred million, wasn't able to work out a new 0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:21.320 contract with Tampa Bay. Did he go from overrated to 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:24.480 the most underrated quarterback? Aren't you shocked? I'm sure. It's 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:26.400 almost like the reversal of what we said with Romo, 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:29.240 where everyone loved him and then heitmen. When Baker Mayfield 0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:32.640 came in this league, there was a sense of, oh, 0:15:32.680 --> 0:15:36.120 he might be a little overvalued or overrated. It didn't 0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:38.200 work out in the beginning the way everyone thought he didn't. 0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:39.760 He did good, but like he brought people the wrong 0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:43.800 way too, you know. But now when you look at 0:15:44.040 --> 0:15:47.320 three years, one hundred million, which man, I wish that 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:52.040 was being underpaid in our world. But still he's sixteenth 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:56.280 as far as active NFL quarterbacks. So he is dead 0:15:56.400 --> 0:15:59.680 center of the NFL quarterback situation at the end of food. 0:15:59.680 --> 0:16:01.480 Do you know what's so disheartening about that? It's like 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:04.840 you was the electructure. You put your nose to the 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:09.880 what where you're putting your nose to the grind, to 0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:12.880 the bubble. He puts his nose to the grind like 0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:16.000 he works hard. He's a dog in the NFL. If 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:19.320 you watch quarterback, you see him as a man. He's 0:16:19.360 --> 0:16:22.720 a good dude. He's a family guy, and he's dedicating 0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:25.840 to winning and taking a beating while doing it. Like 0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:28.360 that's the kind of guy you want leading your team 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:31.160 like he leads by example. I know he's not the 0:16:31.160 --> 0:16:34.200 biggest dude, he's not the biggest arm but here's a 0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:36.680 guy that earned the respect of all those teammates. He 0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:39.560 did everything he possibly could to prove that to Tampa 0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:43.520 and and they don't give him a contract and they 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:44.160 don't work it out. 0:16:44.320 --> 0:16:46.800 Kind of feels like they're blaming him for how much 0:16:46.840 --> 0:16:50.320 time he's out injured, which is not all his fault. 0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:52.880 When you watch his quarterback, he was dealing with a 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:55.240 really banged up O line, which is why the defense 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:56.520 was getting to him so often. 0:16:56.640 --> 0:16:58.600 He's not the type of guy that leans into it either. 0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:01.000 He's trying to play hurt, right, so he's not crying 0:17:01.040 --> 0:17:04.400 about it. And you and you learn to respect him more, 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:07.919 not only from his past few seasons, but from watching 0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:11.360 Quarterback on Netflix. So that story number three, by the way, 0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:13.399 what is he is? He now? Just underrated? 0:17:13.440 --> 0:17:13.480 Like? 0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:15.359 How how is he not working out a deal? What 0:17:15.400 --> 0:17:19.200 if the Tony Romo thing was a dumb and dumber scenario? Yeah, 0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:21.600 and it was a bottle, but it was it wasn't 0:17:21.600 --> 0:17:26.399 filled with alcohol. Give me that. No, that's bad now, bro, 0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:30.520 That's like that's really caring road trip, you know, because 0:17:30.520 --> 0:17:33.560 what we all said when we were trying to understand 0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:35.760 the Tony Romost story is like, all right, let's be 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:38.399 real about it. He was golfing. Probably didn't want to 0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:40.479 admit he probably had a few drinks. But like we 0:17:40.560 --> 0:17:43.480 all have a few drinks if we're at dinner, not 0:17:43.560 --> 0:17:46.040 all because Dan Byer doesn't drink, I'm saying, but it's okay. 0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:49.560 It's socially accepted to have one, two, maybe even three 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.159 drinks throughout the course of a night. You're having a 0:17:52.480 --> 0:17:55.399 you know, a dinner with friends, you're at the golf course, 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:58.240 you can get behind the wheel if you're not intoxicated 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:02.119 and drive. But having an empty container in there, you 0:18:02.200 --> 0:18:07.200 might think you're advertising. You're an idiot, So idiot advertising. Yeah, 0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:10.240 so that just that does change things. Careless, it's careless. 0:18:10.280 --> 0:18:12.840 It's way careless, Like we could all understand, like, yeah, 0:18:12.880 --> 0:18:15.080 you have a few drinks. If you're not drunk, then 0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:18.480 you're okay. But to have an open container to changes things. 0:18:18.480 --> 0:18:23.399 Baker Mayfield story number two, I feel like it's a 0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:25.280 slap in the face where he's saying the same things 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:28.560 over again, like he's he's betting on himself again. He 0:18:28.600 --> 0:18:29.320 already did this. 0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:33.919 Some listener input on that from our YouTube channel, The 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:36.760 Rennick eighty one says, I actually live in Tampa Bay. 0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:39.320 In my humble opinion, he sounds like a whiner. Bro, 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:41.640 you had a great twenty twenty four and a stink 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:42.520 twenty twenty five. 0:18:42.560 --> 0:18:43.360 He didn't have a stak toy. 0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:46.000 You expect all of us to ignore one and not 0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:46.360 the other. 0:18:46.600 --> 0:18:50.280 Twenty five. He's he started out, it was like the 0:18:50.359 --> 0:18:52.560 tale of two seasons. Yes, my second half day it 0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.119 was killing it. Second half he was hurt. 0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:57.000 Yep, you know it's not like all of a sudden 0:18:57.000 --> 0:19:00.000 he suck. Well, listen, and then the team needed help. 0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:02.440 Remember this last week of the season. They needed help 0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:05.240 and that was really it. That was like a weird 0:19:05.280 --> 0:19:07.080 wet Remember the South was so bad. 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:09.600
