Weekend 12 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 1: of NFL preseason games starting tonight, and just don't overreact 13 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: either way. If Shador Sanders plays well on Friday or 14 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: doesn't play well on Friday, don't overreact. I go back 15 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 1: to Zach Wilson a couple of years ago. His first game, 16 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: people are like, yeah, look at that man to the Jets, 17 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: get their guy. 18 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: Well, we know how that ended. 19 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 3: And what you're trying to do is and if you 20 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 3: talk to coaches more probably important offensive coordinators or even 21 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,839 Speaker 3: defensive coordinators like the little things that they're looking for. 22 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 3: We see, ah, my god, he overthrew that guy, or 23 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 3: he threw a pick, or that guy dropped the ball, 24 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 3: he ran the wrong route, or did he run the 25 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 3: wrong route? 26 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 2: Did the quarterback throw it the wrong you know. 27 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 3: So there's so many things that go into this because 28 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 3: you have players who were playing in their first game 29 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 3: or getting getting to know their first team unit. You know, 30 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 3: should or Sanders hasn't taken too many snabs with the 31 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 3: first team, but due to injuries, he's going to be 32 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 3: starting on Friday nine. 33 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 2: So when you see these quarterback. 34 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 3: Battles, or you see a player and you go, boy, 35 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 3: he didn't look that good, or boy, did you see that, 36 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 3: you know, sixth round pick out of TCU, he looked incredible. 37 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 3: This is like the summer league in the NBA where 38 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 3: we'll watch him. We'll go, man, he put up forty 39 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 3: and then he doesn't even make the roster. So be careful. 40 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 3: And I know we're anxious to be like, man, I'm 41 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 3: ready to go, but just be a little bit cautious. 42 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: Now there's a yellow blinking light when I'm watching it, 43 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 3: just it's never red, it's never green. It's sort of 44 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 3: a cautionary tale.

I 60 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 3: just don't think we have the patience now where you're 61 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 3: going to read something that could be eight or nine 62 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 3: pages long, or it's on TV and it's fifteen minutes. 63 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 3: I just don't know if people have the patience to 64 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: do that, to watch that. Plus, if you're watching sports, 65 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 3: we want sports to be positive. We don't want negative stories. 66 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 3: We don't want anything that attaches Otani to a gambling scandal. 67 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: We don't want to see a school taken down. We 68 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 3: don't want to school get the death penalty, or a 69 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 3: coach be suspended a player be suspended. When you think 70 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 3: about it, we love the positivity of sport. Now, granted 71 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: there's a winner and a loser, but we want them 72 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 3: to be able to play or be able to coach. 73 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: We want the feel good story. I just don't know 74 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 3: if people wake up and go too much positivity. Yes, 75 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 3: people don't wake up and say too much positivity. However, 76 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 3: was there like a more exciting. 77 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 4: Time in I mean there were a lot of exciting 78 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 4: times of sports, but the whole balco thing, the whole 79 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,840 Speaker 4: steroid era, uncovering that the I mean, all of those 80 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 4: things were every day you woke up and we're like, 81 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 4: what's going to happen today? 82 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 2: What's next? How is this all going to go? That 83 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 2: was awesome having covered that. 84 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 3: I thought there was too much coverage of it, but 85 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 3: we were unearthing things all the time. 86 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: It'd be another name, you know, there'd be another source. 87 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 2: I mean, it just it. 88 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 3: Metastasizes and then all of a sudden, you know, it's 89 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 3: every single day that you go to work and you 90 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 3: have to cover that and you're hoping there's something that 91 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 3: you can add to it. But yeah, back then, because 92 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 3: it was salacious and you know baseball, home runs, Bonds, 93 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 3: Balco a Rod, who's this doctor? What are they getting? 94 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 3: What's the clear? What's the cream? And how does that 95 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 3: help you hit home runs? The number of people back 96 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 3: then who would say, hey, you can take the clear 97 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 3: and cream, but that doesn't help you hit a baseball, Well, 98 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 3: it helps you hit a baseball further. And I would 99 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 3: always say, why would you risk your career if it 100 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 3: didn't help you do something? The amount of money that 101 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 3: was made off of performance enhancing drugs, the clear and 102 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 3: the cream and steroids, that's why they did it. You 103 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 3: run the risk because to them it was worth the risk. Now, 104 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,039 Speaker 3: in retrospect, if you ask Rafael Paul Merrow was it 105 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 3: worth it? Or Sammy Sosa was it worth it? Or 106 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 3: Mark maguire was it worth it? Or Barry Bonds was 107 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 3: it worth it? You might get different answers from those guys. 108 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 3: They might say, you know what, yeah, they all got paid, 109 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 3: but was it worth it? The public shame to go 110 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 3: in front of Congress if you're Mark maguire. You were 111 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 3: America's hero. You were Paul Bunyan. All of a sudden, 112 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: you're there and they're going and you know, hey, I'm 113 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 3: not here to talk about the past. And I go, 114 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 3: oh my god. If that's your game plan, you're in trouble. 115 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 3: Rafael pal Marrow pointing his finger and Rafael palm Marrow's 116 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 3: got three thousand hits. He was going, You're going to 117 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 3: the Hall of Fame. Now nobody brings his name up. 118 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,679 Speaker 3: You know when they talk about other players, Rafaeld palm Merrow, 119 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 3: does he have five hundred home runs? I know he's 120 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 3: got three thousand hits. He might have three thousand and 121 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 3: five hundred home runs and he's not getting into the 122 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:52,559 Speaker 3: Hall of Fame. 123 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, PAULI I think guys like Barry Bonds and Lance 124 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 5: Armstrong are not sorry they did it. I think they 125 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 5: feel that they had to do it to compete with 126 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 5: everyone else who was doing it. Lance Armstrong said to you, 127 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 5: everybody was using it. I could either use or go home, 128 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 5: and I decided to use or I'd be off the tour. 129 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 5: I think Bonds clearly no pun saw other guys using 130 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 5: it and said, okay, wait, do you see this, wait 131 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 5: to see my skills with this stuff, I'll be the 132 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 5: best ever. And he clearly was. 133 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 3: But that's what happened Bonds, from what I'm told, was 134 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 3: watching what you know, the public, you know, adulation with Sammy. 135 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 3: So said Mark maguire O. It was this summer of 136 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 3: Sammy and Mark. We're gonna make you guys sportsmen in the. 137 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: Year and Bonds is gone. Are you kidding me? Are 138 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 2: you kidding me? Watch this? 139 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 3: And you saw what could happen when one of the 140 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 3: great players uses performance enhancing drugs. And Lance Armstrong was 141 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 3: a great story. He came back from testicular cancer. He 142 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 3: was going to die. Just the fact that he came 143 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 3: back to the Tour de France would have been enough 144 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 3: to make him a hero in the United States. But 145 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 3: these guys all have that same gene. It is full 146 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 3: speed ahead. You know, Jordan had it, Bonds has it, 147 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 3: you know Clemens had it, Lance Armstrong has it that 148 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 3: whatever it takes, I'm gonna be great. I'm gonna continue 149 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 3: to be great. And I looked at Lance and first 150 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 3: of all, we didn't care about the Twitter France, and 151 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 3: then all of a sudden, Hey, an American's winning and 152 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 3: we're like, now, Greg Lemon had won and he survived 153 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 3: a shotgun blast and it ended up winning. And he's 154 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,079 Speaker 3: really the true hero in my opinion when it comes 155 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 3: to American cycling Twitter France. But Lance was he became 156 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 3: a star, worldwide star, and then the French came after him. 157 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 3: They're like, you're not gonna Hey, we can cheat, but 158 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 3: you're not gonna cheat and win our race. 159 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 2: We can, but you can't. Yeah, paulin Well, it's. 160 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 5: So funny though, when the French press and people came 161 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 5: after Lance Armstrong, it actually bolstered his case here in America, 162 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 5: like they're jealous they can't beat him. A lot of 163 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 5: people don't have issues with the French in general, right 164 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 5: going back decades and decades, and it was like Lance goes, well, 165 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 5: look who's coming after me, the people who can't beat me, 166 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 5: And we're like, yeah, Lance, go host sb's again, you're 167 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 5: the man.

His 173 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 3: odds now are minus one thousand. It's really hard for 174 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 3: him to lose this. But I do think Kyle Schwarber 175 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 3: deserves some consideration here. He's not gonna win it. He 176 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 3: was plus three point fifty yesterday. Now he's plus five fifty. 177 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 3: Pete crow Armstrong was plus nine fifty yesterday now plus 178 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 3: fifteen hundred. Show to lose. And if you're pitching like 179 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: this and now you're ramping up and then you have 180 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 3: that weapon in the postseason, it's pretty amazing. And they 181 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 3: they certainly need him because the Dodgers haven't been as 182 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 3: formidable as we expected them to be. And I started 183 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 3: to wonder about this with Travis Hunter. I don't know 184 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 3: how much offense and defense he's going to play if 185 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 3: he's listed as a backup cornerback but a starting wide receiver. 186 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 3: I feel like it's going to be flipped when the 187 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 3: season starts. But if Travis Hunter doesn't go to Jackson 188 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 3: State where he can play both ways and you're playing 189 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 3: for Dion Sanders, if Travis Hunter went to Georgia LSU 190 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 3: or Florida State, he might get a sprinkling, he wouldn't 191 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 3: be playing both ways, but they would go, hey, we're 192 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 3: going to put him in a third down package. 193 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 2: Big skulls take you, and that's your position. Now. 194 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 3: I don't know if this is going to open the 195 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 3: door for more players wanting to try this. I thought 196 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 3: Derek Stingley, who played at LSU, could have been a 197 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 3: two way player for LSU. But you're getting guys who 198 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 3: specialize as a wide receiver and those who specialize as 199 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 3: a defensive back. If you don't have Jackson State and Dion, 200 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 3: then maybe we don't have Travis Hunter winning the Heisman 201 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,839 Speaker 3: Trophy because it opened our eyes to hey, he's playing 202 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 3: both ways, and then the knock, well it's Jackson State. 203 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 6: Okay. 204 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 3: Then he went to Colorado and he was playing both ways, 205 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 3: just like show. Hey o'toni. I don't know how many 206 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 3: and most of your great players were probably a pitcher 207 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 3: and a shortstop. That's usually the Hey i'm not pitching, 208 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 3: I'm playing shortstop. Hey I'm bat in third. And you 209 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 3: know there's guys who were great pitchers and they were 210 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 3: great hitters in high school and maybe in college, and 211 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 3: most of them were. But I don't know if there's 212 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 3: going to be a player of players who say, Hey, 213 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 3: Otani's done it, Travis Hunter's done it. Now you have 214 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 3: to have the talent to do it, and you have 215 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 3: to have a coach or a manager who is willing 216 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 3: to let you do that. I keep saying, I'd love 217 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 3: to see Paul Skeens maybe play, maybe bat, because he 218 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 3: was a pretty good hitter. I remember at air Force. 219 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 3: I don't know the LSU numbers, but you know you 220 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 3: got some guys who were you know, they were great 221 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 3: athletes and two way players. I'm sure you know all 222 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 3: of these great players in college played both ways in 223 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 3: high school. So you might have been a running back 224 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 3: and a defensive back, or you know you're gonna be 225 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 3: a quarterback in a free safety to Daveon Clowney played 226 00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 3: running back in a high school and defensive end. 227 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 2: You imagine him as a running back. 228 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 3: Oh my god, no, this is gonna hurt. But watching 229 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 3: Otani deal last night and nobody can answer that. I mean, imagine, 230 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 3: you can't pitch, and you have one of the greatest 231 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 3: offensive single seasons in baseball history. So he can't pitch, 232 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 3: but he steals bases, hits home runs, hits for average 233 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 3: and you win the World Series, that's amazing. But do 234 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 3: I think Travis Hunter is going to be used on 235 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 3: both sides? Yes, but I think sparingly. I think you 236 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 3: just have to ease him in and see what he's comfortable, 237 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 3: how he adjusts, because in the first couple of weeks 238 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 3: and then the last couple of weeks, that's what I'd 239 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 3: be curious what he's going to say about the whole 240 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 3: experience and how he feels his body feels. 241 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: He has Paul. 242 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 5: But with Travis Hunter, if you're gonna do it where 243 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 5: he's a two way player more than fifty percent of 244 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 5: the time on both sides of the ball, don't you 245 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 5: do it now when he's young, when he's fresh and springy, 246 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 5: for lack of a better word, because you think at 247 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 5: twenty nine it's gonna be one or the other, twenty 248 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 5: eight it's gonna be one. 249 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 6: Or the other. 250 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, I don't want to burn him out. I 251 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 3: don't want to have him get injured. It's a fine 252 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 3: line of Hey, people are going to tune in to 253 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 3: watch him play both sides of the ball. 254 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,839 Speaker 5: I look at this kind of the opposite. The Jaguars 255 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 5: have him for five years, four or five years. I'm 256 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 5: gonna use everything he's got for those years, because it's 257 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 5: it's a coin flip whether he's going to have his 258 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 5: second contract there or elsewhere. So if you took him, 259 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 5: you took him for both the offense, the defense, and 260 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 5: the notoriety. And you know, the Dodgers could have gone 261 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 5: and said, this year, you know what, we don't want 262 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 5: Otani pitching because the guy was the best hitter on 263 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 5: earth basically last year. His numbers hitting are noticeably down 264 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 5: this year. They're still very good. But I wonder if people, 265 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 5: if there's people at the Dodger to say to themselves, Man, 266 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 5: I wish this dude would just hit and hit three 267 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 5: forty with forty five homewarns and forty steals every year, 268 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 5: because now he has I think fifteen or sixteen steels 269 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 5: this year. Last year he had fifty nine. What changed? 270 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 3: Wait, wasn't pitching, yes, and he was playing every day, 271 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 3: And yeah, I said, he'll never approach those numbers again 272 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 3: because he won't be in the position to They're not 273 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 3: going to want him to run like that. 274 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 5: I wonder though Dodger people who would prefer it. But 275 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 5: maybe when he made his Dodger contract and his Dodger deal. 276 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 5: He said, I am a two way player. 277 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 3: But it's helping him win an MVP Again, He's going 278 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: to have six or seven MVPs if he continues to 279 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 3: hit like this. And you still add in the pitching 280 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: portion of this. It just there's no one like him now, 281 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 3: the value when he's on the mound and when he's 282 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 3: at the plate. But go back to the Angels. They said, hey, 283 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 3: you can do whatever you want. Because other teams didn't 284 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 3: want him to be a two way player, but the 285 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 3: Angels did. Now all of a sudden, you know, there 286 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 3: you go. Now you're known as the Unicorn. You're the 287 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 3: guy who does the pitching and hitting. He's doing things 288 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 3: that are more impressive than Babe Ruth because Babe wasn't 289 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 3: doing them at the same time. 290 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 2: He was a pitcher. 291 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 3: Who won over ninety games and then all of a 292 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 3: sudden became the greatest hitter in baseball history. Show Heytani 293 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 3: is like I go out to the mound, I can 294 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 3: go to the plate as well in the same game. 295 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 3: And he's done it a couple of seasons in a row. 296 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 3: All right, well take it break, We'll get some phone 297 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 3: calls here pull question for the second hour of the program, 298 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 3: Ross Tucker, our good buddy.

What do you look for 326 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 3: in a preseason game? 327 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 8: Well, that is a terrific question, Dan, and it really 328 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 8: varies from team the team. Specifically for the Eagles, the 329 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 8: team I work for tonight, it's kind of rare, I 330 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 8: feel like for them to have this many available roles 331 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 8: available starting jobs for a defending Super Bowl champion that 332 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 8: was as good as they were last year. The starting 333 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 8: linebacker job next to Zach Bond is up for grabs, 334 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 8: starting cornerback across from Quinnon Mitchell, starting safety next to 335 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 8: Reed Blankenship. And then they lost a bunch of d 336 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,479 Speaker 8: linemen to free agency or retirement. So the third and 337 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 8: fourth edge rushers, who as you know, play a lot, 338 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 8: the fourth and fifty tackles who play a lot. So 339 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 8: that's that's seven of the top I don't know fourteen 340 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 8: fifteen roles for the eagles number one ranked defense are 341 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 8: legitimately genuinely up for grabs starting tonight. And what's cool 342 00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 8: about it is Zach Taylor, the Bengals head coach, that 343 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 8: the Bengals are going to play their starters, Joe Burrow 344 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 8: and those guys for a quarter. So it's fantastic work 345 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 8: for the young Eagles defense and for those guys competing 346 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 8: for those jobs to go against Burrow and the starters. 347 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 8: And I guess Tayler said they're gonna even play more 348 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 8: week two of the preseason against Washington, So obviously the 349 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 8: Bengals are trying to change things up after going one 350 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 8: and eleven the first two games of the season under 351 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 8: Zach Taylor. 352 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the amazing part of this is certain teams 353 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 3: can use the first couple of weeks of the regular 354 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 3: season as their preseason, felt like Belichick and the Patriots 355 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 3: did that. The Bengals cannot afford to get off to 356 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 3: a slow start again. When you watch rookie quarterbacks, what 357 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 3: should we be watching for? 358 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 8: I think, as much as anything else, it's just do 359 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 8: they look like they belong? 360 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 6: Do they look comfortable. 361 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,360 Speaker 8: You can tell when someone's racing, you know, watch their feet, 362 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 8: watch their eyes. 363 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 6: If their heads all over the play and they've got. 364 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 8: Happy feet in the pocket, that's not what you want 365 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 8: to see in general, you know, I always say is 366 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,880 Speaker 8: about any quarterback, but especially young quarterbacks. The faster they're 367 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 8: getting rid of the ball right from snap to throw, 368 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 8: the better you should feel about them, because that shows 369 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,360 Speaker 8: you that they've done the pre snap work, they've done 370 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 8: the preparation, they have a really good feel for where 371 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 8: they want to go with the ball, and they get 372 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 8: it out quickly. 373 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 6: I will say, though, Dan as a caveat right. 374 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 8: Most of the preseason, especially for young quarterbacks, very vanilla defenses, 375 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 8: and then the coaching staffs are going to try to 376 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 8: enable these young quarterbacks to get confidence and be able to. 377 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 6: Throw the ball to their first read. 378 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 8: It's just not like that in the regular season, right, 379 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 8: And the Eagles actually have a classic case tonight. Dorian 380 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 8: Thompson Robinson will play. He has been fantastic the last 381 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 8: two years in the preseason for the Cleveland Browns and 382 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 8: then in the regular season. 383 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 6: I got to look it up before the game that night. 384 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 6: I think he has one. 385 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 8: Touchdown eleven interceptions in his four regular season starts. 386 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 6: So it's been very, very different. 387 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 8: And that's actually a really important point as at least 388 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 8: the preseason football. 389 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 6: Some teams just want to put certain players. 390 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 8: Dan in specific situations and see how they react. 391 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 6: Some teams want to feature guys. 392 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 8: To see what they have left or maybe to try 393 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 8: to trade them. Others, you know, they want to try 394 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 8: to go into the season with confidence. 395 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 6: I mean everybody you know. 396 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 8: In the regular season, we know that everyone's game planning 397 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 8: to the max to try to. 398 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 6: Win that game that week. 399 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 8: In the preseason, there's a lot of different goals that 400 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 8: people are trying to achieve, and so you can't really 401 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,959 Speaker 8: look at the score or even the scheme. But I 402 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 8: do think how individual players perform, especially if it's really 403 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 8: good or really poor, I do think that's something to 404 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 8: make note of. 405 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 3: He's Ross Tucker. He's host of the Ross Tucker Football Podcast. 406 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 3: He calls games for CBS and Westwood One. Smelling salts 407 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 3: in the NFL says, no more smelling salts. What was 408 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 3: your experience with smelling salts? 409 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 8: Well, we didn't have that in college at Princeton, and 410 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 8: the first time someone gave it to me in the NFL. 411 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 6: Nobody told me what it was. 412 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 8: They just said sniff it, and Dan, that was a 413 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 8: bad experience. 414 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 6: Okay, if you don't know what's coming and you just 415 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 6: take it and you're. 416 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,959 Speaker 8: Like, oh, okay, and you sniff in like that, I 417 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 8: mean I cried. 418 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 6: I mean my nose was burning. 419 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 8: I had a really bad first experience, which is probably 420 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 8: why I was. 421 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 6: Never a smelling salt guy. 422 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 8: You know, there's a lot of guys that after that, 423 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 8: you know, they do it, you know, before every game 424 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,880 Speaker 8: or sometimes during game. 425 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 6: I mean, you've been around me enough, Dan, Do I 426 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:57,479 Speaker 6: look like a guy that needs smelling salts? 427 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 8: Do I seem like a that needs a little something 428 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,439 Speaker 8: extra to get going? 429 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 6: The answer is no. And also I think I was 430 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 6: just too much of a wimp. You know. I had 431 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 6: such a. 432 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 8: Bad first experience that when they would give it to 433 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 8: me after that, I would do one of these, Dan 434 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 8: for people watching. 435 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 6: On peacock or you like, you know, like five inches 436 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 6: from my nose, right I was. I wasn't. 437 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 8: I was too afraid to get it like real close 438 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 8: to my nose. By the way, supposedly they can need 439 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 8: they can still use smelling salts. 440 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 6: The team's just not going to provide them anymore. 441 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 8: So now the players have to, uh, bring your own 442 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 8: smelling salts b yoss to your NFL games. 443 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 3: If they're not good for you, then why is the 444 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 3: NFL allowing you to bring your own? 445 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 8: That's a really good question. I think probably liability. I 446 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 8: don't know, you're right, like, if you're the NFL, you're 447 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 8: liable if you're the one supplying it, if you're the 448 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 8: one handing them out. It's probably the same reason why 449 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 8: they've cut back on a lot of the pain medicine. 450 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 8: They've cut back on some of the injections and shots 451 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 8: guys again and now they still do it. 452 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 6: But man, Dann, when I was playing, you remember viox, 453 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 6: the anti inflammatory biox. 454 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 2: I loved biox. 455 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 8: Yeah, And at some point they came out and said 456 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 8: viox is bad for you. That is information that would 457 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:25,400 Speaker 8: have been very valuable to me in like two thousand Okay, 458 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 8: to come out in two thousand and eight after I've. 459 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 6: Been taking it for eight years, like how does that 460 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 6: help me? 461 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 8: And then also with the tortoal right, stuff like that 462 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 8: that they are a little bit more. I mean back 463 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 8: when I played, there'd be a line of twelve guys 464 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 8: to get the Tourtal shot right, just over and over 465 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 8: and over and over again. Supposedly they've reeled back some 466 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 8: of that stuff, and probably for good reason. 467 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 2: Let's tord all do. 468 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 8: Tortal is by far the best full body anti inflammatory 469 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 8: you can ever ta. You know, my rookie year, I 470 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 8: saw guys getting shots in their butt right. 471 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 6: And I didn't play as a rookie, so I didn't 472 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 6: really even know what they were doing. 473 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 8: I thought it was like Cortizona, and then someone said, no, 474 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,360 Speaker 8: it's Tordal Dan. 475 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 6: Let me just tell you, okay. 476 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 8: Year two, we fly to Osaka, Japan to play the 477 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,919 Speaker 8: Niners in the preseason. I'm starting for Washington in the 478 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:29,359 Speaker 8: preseason game. After the flight, first practice, I get I 479 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,400 Speaker 8: hurt my neck. I sprained my neck. I can't leave 480 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 8: the hotel room. I'm miserable. Before the game, I go 481 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 8: up to the Redskins team doctor and say, hey, I 482 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 8: need one of those shots in my butt. And they 483 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 8: said it's a preseason game, we didn't even bring one. 484 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 8: I said, it's not I'm trying to win a starting job. 485 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 8: This is like the most important game of my life. 486 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 8: So the Redskins team doctor goes over to the Niners, 487 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 8: gets a tort all shot from them, puts it in 488 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 8: my butt. Dan, I played unbelieve I played unbelievable. I 489 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 8: mean that's like the best I ever played. So I 490 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 8: will say this though. The tough thing about that in life, 491 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 8: right as a football player, there's always something bothering you. 492 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 8: So after that game, anytime I was starting, I pretty 493 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 8: much got a toward all shot. Because if you ask 494 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 8: an NFL player before a game, would you rather be 495 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 8: a little bit taller, or faster, or stronger. 496 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 6: Or whatever they would tell you. 497 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 8: I just want to feel as healthy as possible, just 498 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 8: just I don't want my back to feel like that, 499 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 8: or my knee or my left shoulder like I just 500 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 8: want to feel it. So once I had that experience 501 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 8: my first preseason game my second year, anytime I was 502 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 8: starting after that in a regular season game, I had 503 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 8: something bothering me. I was taking a toward all shot 504 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,439 Speaker 8: because I was trying to maximize my performance on the field. 505 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 3: What's your view of the training camp fights, Like, what's 506 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 3: it mean to you when you see a team that's 507 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 3: fighting actual you know, fisticuffs. 508 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, So if you got any of my former teammates 509 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 6: on here and ask them about me. 510 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 8: I would think from two thousand and one to two 511 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 8: thousand and eight, i'd be surprised if I didn't lead 512 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 8: the NFL in training camp fights. I really would, and 513 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 8: in fairness, in my mind, I was never starting a fight. 514 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 8: I was always finishing a play. Now, the other guys 515 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 8: didn't feel that way, and they didn't like me, and 516 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 8: they thought I was annoying. But I have plenty of 517 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,959 Speaker 8: friends from high school and college. What do I care 518 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 8: about these guys? Right Like, I'm trying to get a 519 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 8: job right. So I would finish the plays and they 520 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 8: would not be happy, you know, whether I'm pancaking them 521 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,880 Speaker 8: or hitting them late or whatever. So then they would 522 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 8: always throw the first swing and then I would swing back, 523 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 8: and I don't know, you know, it's one of those 524 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 8: things where the coaches act like they don't like it, 525 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 8: but they do. Two thousand and four, Okay, training camp. 526 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,880 Speaker 8: Remember Oliver Gibbson I think recently passed a detackle. We're 527 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 8: in Buffalo, and he was just annoying the crap out 528 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,719 Speaker 8: of me, and he kept grabbing me. I couldn't get 529 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 8: up to the linebacker. He kept grabbing my jersey. So finally, 530 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,439 Speaker 8: after a play, I was done with it. And that 531 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 8: one I actually started, I'll raise my hand for that one, 532 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 8: and I just started wailing on him and he's punched 533 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 8: me back, and they break it up and I'm walking 534 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 8: back to the huddle and. 535 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 6: I thought, no, you know what, I hate that guy. 536 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 6: I'm sick of it. 537 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 9: Dan. 538 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 8: I ran back and smoked him. I ran back and 539 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 8: smoked him. And Mike Mullarkey was our head coach. He 540 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 8: kicked me out of practice. Okay, this is like halfway 541 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 8: through practice. He kicked me out for that move. Okay, 542 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 8: and he told the team that is not what they want, 543 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 8: that's not what they're going for. 544 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 6: Two things happened after practice. First of all, some of 545 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 6: the best veterans we. 546 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 8: Had said, Tuck, you want to start to fight tomorrow 547 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 8: so we can both get out of practice. If you 548 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 8: get out of practice by getting a fight, well let's 549 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 8: start it early. And Mallarkey came up to me and 550 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 8: Malarkey said, I'll never forget. Danny said, hey, Ross, I 551 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 8: just want to let you know. I said, yeah, I said, 552 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 8: I'm sorry, I lost my head. I hate that guy. 553 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 8: He's like I know, he said. You know, I told 554 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 8: the team that that's not what we're looking for. He said, 555 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 8: I just want you to know the way you play 556 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 8: is exactly what we're looking for. So they say one 557 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 8: thing publicly, Dan, but then privately, you know, they feel differently. 558 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 3: Good to talk to you. I have fun tonight. And 559 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 3: you know what, before you go, you tend to tell 560 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 3: this story. I think every year, maybe every other year, 561 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 3: of when you get cut that here you are a 562 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 3: high school hero, you play at Princeton, you're in the NFL, 563 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 3: and that feeling when you get cut, when you go 564 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 3: back to your hometown. 565 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 6: You know what's so funny? You just saying that. I'm 566 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 6: not exaggerating. 567 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 8: My eyes filled up a little bit because it takes 568 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 8: me right back to that. It's, you know, picture for 569 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 8: fifteen years of your life, ten to twelve years of 570 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 8: your life. You go back and everybody kind of knows 571 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 8: who you are, and everybody's like, hey, Ross, Ross, the 572 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 8: football player, Ross, how's it going. 573 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 6: I saw you again for the Cowboys. I saw you 574 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 6: the Ross. What's up man? How's prinsing going? 575 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 8: And then imagine all of a sudden, you go back 576 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 8: and it was on the cover of the Reading Eagle 577 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 8: newspaper Okay in Berks County, Pennsylvania now are west of Philly. 578 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 8: It was on the front cover Ross Tucker released by whoever. 579 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 6: There was a bunch of them, right. So now you 580 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 6: go back and they. 581 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 8: Don't know how to react, Dan, They don't know, they 582 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 8: don't know what to say to you. Some people just 583 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 8: kind of put their head down. Some people are like, hey, man, 584 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 8: I saw the news. It's a really really awkward situation, 585 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 8: super uncomfortable. You feel like you're letting those people down. 586 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 8: They don't know how to treat you because they've always 587 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 8: treated you like. 588 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 6: You know, like you're a hero, but now you're the zero. 589 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 6: It's it's it's not easy. I mean it is. 590 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 9: Uh. 591 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 8: It takes some significant mental toughness, that's for sure. 592 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 3: Do you still have the newspapers that talked about you 593 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 3: when you got cut by teams and you came back home. 594 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 6: I have all the positive newspaper clippings. 595 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 8: I have no idea where the negative newspaper clippings are. 596 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 8: I think I threw the though, you know, I have 597 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 8: scrap books, which are awesome. My mom did them when 598 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 8: I was in high school and college, and then I 599 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 8: think even in the NFL, maybe the first couple of years, 600 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 8: and I love having those to flip through or show 601 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 8: my daughters or whatever. But didn't put the negative stuff 602 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 8: in there just because it brings back bad memories. There's 603 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 8: you know, in life, right, we can all choose to 604 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 8: have gratitude for the things that we have and the 605 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 8: positive things that have happened, or we can choose to 606 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 8: like I could say, I wish I was doing this 607 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 8: game as a broadcaster, or I wish I was I 608 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 8: wish I'd played this long in the NFL. 609 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 6: How does that help you at all?

I had a question for. 666 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 12: Your journalism. Is that with the merger of the NFL 667 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:15,800 Speaker 12: and ESPN. I was told that the equity part goes 668 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 12: divided by the owners. How do they monetize that to 669 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 12: put that into the salary cap? 670 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,919 Speaker 3: They don't put it in the salary cap. I don't 671 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 3: think the players get that equity with ESPN and NFL Network. 672 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 2: Or NFL. 673 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm guessing the CBA Collective Bargaining Agreement. We'll have 674 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 3: something to say about that. But Mike Florio brought that 675 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 3: up yesterday. They're getting ten percent of ESPN. I think 676 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 3: the owners are getting ten percent of ESPN. Shuffles in 677 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 3: Phoenix High Shuffles. 678 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 9: Good morning, Dan, and I'm calling in. I'm doing my 679 00:35:55,840 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 9: own journalistic advanced work here and also contracts because back 680 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 9: in I think May you had Adam silver On. Do 681 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,879 Speaker 9: you remember that conversation with. 682 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 3: Adam Uh specifically what part of the conversation. 683 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 9: The part where you told Adam that you have three 684 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,120 Speaker 9: years to go, which means you're going to be gone 685 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 9: to roughly May of twenty twenty eight, and you said 686 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 9: it on the air, which I think is a binding context. 687 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 9: You have to do it. I think can bring it 688 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,760 Speaker 9: up because you told Adam like not once, not twice, 689 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 9: but thrice. Adam I have three years left. I was 690 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 9: rejoicing because I figured you are going to stick around 691 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 9: longer than we anticipate. And that's that's actually evidence of it. 692 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 9: The otherst thing I wanted to bring up is you 693 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 9: and Marvin always disparage the Arizona Wildcats, and I wanted 694 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 9: to see if you guys would be willing to do 695 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,840 Speaker 9: a pie of the face coming up because Connecticut and 696 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 9: Arizona are going to be playing for the next two 697 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 9: years during the regular season.

Yeah, 705 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 3: I mean I should have six Emmys, but I don't 706 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:28,440 Speaker 3: have any. Not with the show.
