1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: The Around the NFL Podcast does not cow tow as sponsors.

2
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: You can say that again. Welcome back to another edition

3
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: of the Around the NFL Podcast. My name is Dan Hansus,

4
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: and I'm joined by room filled with heroes, Mark Sessler,

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:23,319
Speaker 1: Chris Westling and Greg Rosa. What's up boys, hey day? Yeah,

6
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: we are unsponsored um unbeholden, but beloved Around the NFL

7
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: Podcast by dozens unbeholden. So the word yeah, does that

8
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 1: means we're just gonna take shots at We're not in

9
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: anybody's pocket. Greg, I thought you had a real right

10
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: off the top Roger Goodell shooting behind bulletproof glass right here.

11
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: I thought you had a nice couple of tweets. Greg

12
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: even banged off a little retweet yesterday this we are now.

13
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: The O t A s are in full swing, and

14
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: Greg had a real what I call clear eyed look

15
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: at what's going on in there? What did you say

16
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: on Twitter that I really agreed with? I think I said,

17
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: you know, we all, we all have football, we all

18
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: like to follow it closely, but you know, O t

19
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: A season has no real predictive value. You're better off.

20
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: I was thinking of my days back at Rohator world

21
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: when we would do the rankings, and I was saying,

22
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: some of my mistakes doing rankings, you'd be better off

23
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: if you just took a nap from May to August.

24
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 1: Sign me I gonna really learn anything May through July.

25
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: This is coming from the bus. You're basically saying it

26
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 1: would be fine for us, and you know it'd be

27
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: a time to recharge our batteries. Just basically not be

28
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: at the workplace. There's some nuance to this. Yes, I'm

29
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: saying it's not predictive. I don't think it should change

30
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: your opinions. I think there's still news. I think it's

31
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: a good time to prepare for the season and inform

32
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: yourself of what's going on in position battles. It's good

33
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: to know who's injured or who's not. But I don't

34
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: think it should be changing your idea of who's good

35
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: or bad. I think that's well said. It's not predictive,

36
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: but it is helpful to store those names in your head.

37
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: In fact, you're all the depth chart changes going on

38
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: rookie standing out. But until you see these people play, well,

39
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: they're not playing football. They're playing touch football, which is

40
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: a much which is a different sport which with no

41
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: real pass rush, and like the Eagles. There's a perfect example.

42
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: I found a column that said in the Philadelphia and

43
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: in Choir, Sam Bradford has been the best player on

44
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: the Eagles this offseason. I found another article by the

45
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 1: Philly Media where it said there's been no difference between

46
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: the three quarterbacks. And I found another one that thought

47
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz is mentally ahead of Sam Bradford learning the offense.

48
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 1: So this is like, what are we talking about. Part

49
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: of the issue is that beat writers, as much as

50
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: the lifeblood of what we do, how old do they

51
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 1: really know the sport they take They took a look

52
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: at a practice and they're like, oh, this receiver dropped

53
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 1: two passes. Bad practice. Well, that doesn't take any of

54
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: the nuances of the game into effect. Drops are overrated.

55
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 1: Or you know, Carson Wentz badly overthrew a receiver. I

56
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: do you know if the receiver ran the right route.

57
00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 1: People are just figuring out what they're doing right now.

58
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 1: It is may after all. Excuse me, yes, nice show today.

59
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna listen, call me crazy. I'm gonna give this

60
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: a pre grade show of an A. Wow, that's a

61
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: lot of pressure, especially for um, you know, the middle

62
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: of May, Thursday or early June. Five words. I've been

63
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: in meetings all day. I feel like, why why does

64
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: half the room think it's still May? Five words, guys,

65
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: And it could have been taken right out of an

66
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: RG Three tweets from two thousand Don't afraid to be great,

67
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: don't afraid to be great, don't be afraid to be great?

68
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: Six words, two of which are that sentences occupied by

69
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: the word be. Yeah. Anyway, here we go. We got

70
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: a lot to get to. We're gonna bring back one

71
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: of our favorite games. What's more likely? Gotta love? What's

72
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: more like? I think it as a counting the numbers

73
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: of the words that tripped you up. Well, you know

74
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: that was five words don't afraid be great? Famously, I

75
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: got a thirty nine on a state mandated mathest, So

76
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 1: I was so busy cooking up the number of words

77
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: that the language tripped me up. Usually it's the other

78
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: way around. You're a pro. It's understandable, but you're not.

79
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: You know, you are human. Once in a blue moon

80
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: and errow will creep across. Thank you, Mark, Thank you

81
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: for pointing that out. And some news to get to

82
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 1: from around the NFL, which is how we got our name,

83
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: by the way. And also we're gonna have h We're

84
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: gonna get somebody on the phone because of a big,

85
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 1: big bombshell that dropped in the news room regarding the

86
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 1: Shield our company softball team, which continues our season tonight,

87
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: Um against one of our big rivals West. We haven't

88
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: even played them yet and they're a big rival. Yeah,

89
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: they're three and two team. Um. The name of the

90
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: team escapes you right now. Do you remember Barneys the

91
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: flying Sheep, Flying Sheep? The Irishman chimes in with the

92
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: Irishman our third basement tonight. Uh and speaking of the Irishman,

93
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,279
Speaker 1: what's up? That's what I'm so ready for this game tonight.

94
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: I know you are. You're one of my warriors, like

95
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: my Paul O'Neil. I'm ready to go. All right, baby,

96
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: let's do some news. Be sure and tell him large

97
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: Mark that you that's the woman that Mark picked up

98
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 1: last week. Not accurate. She was of middle size, large Marge.

99
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,799
Speaker 1: You said she was the middle middle size. She wasn't

100
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 1: especially big or small. She wouldn't. It wasn't a characteristic

101
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: that stood out that this is you're talking about the

102
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,799
Speaker 1: hitchhiker you picked up. But she she's an older lady.

103
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say she was a hitchhiker. She wasn't. I'm

104
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: not going to get back into this. She was walking

105
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: down the street. She wasn't actively looking for someone to

106
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: pick her up. And she's been maligned on Twitter and

107
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: I don't appreciate it. Well, so the way you tell it,

108
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: she almost should have been a little wary of you.

109
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: She wasn't even looking and some guy just pulls up. Hey, hey, lady,

110
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 1: what's not this? This was a roll of the dice

111
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: on both sides of the fence. No, no, no, I

112
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: didn't roll up, Greg. Thanks for telling me how it went.

113
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: I was there, and you know, she and I saw

114
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: each other from three yards away. She saw I was.

115
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: I wasn't some like, you know, hooligan driving six hundred

116
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: miles a road down the state. I stopped and said that,

117
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 1: you know, would you like a ride? That's enough? When

118
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: you saw it, like case closed, subject done that the

119
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,919
Speaker 1: music start coming off in your head, not even remotely,

120
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: and not at all. We'll start with the San Francisco

121
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: forty niners who are going to have a little camp

122
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: battle between Blaine Gabbert and Colin Kaepernick to be the

123
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 1: team's starting quarterback. Yikes. But at the same time, where

124
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: is Colin Kaepernick at healthwise? The team's offensive coordinator? Offensive

125
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: coordinator Mark who is the offensive coordinator of the Niners.

126
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: You are an expert in this category. This one I forgot.

127
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: It's uh he was trending on Twitter to anybody old.

128
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: Curtis Modkins, Curtis job buddy Makins said Thursday the team

129
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: is waiting for Kaepernick to get healthy before a full

130
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: fledged competition with Gabbett begins. And when will he be healthy?

131
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 1: Here's what I can say. I have no idea. We

132
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: as coaches, our jobs are to coach who's out there

133
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:16,239
Speaker 1: on the field practicing. Whenever they say they say Collins healthy,

134
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: I'm sure he'll be there. He's around us, he's in

135
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: the meetings, he's doing a great job. It's not up

136
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: to me when he's released. So we'll see. Interesting choice

137
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: of words, Uh, Greg, your thoughts. I wonder if there's

138
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: more going on here. The timing is interesting because they

139
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: were hopeful that he would be back on the field

140
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: around the start of June or maybe mini camp. If

141
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: he misses all of ot S and mini camp. I

142
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: don't think again, you don't want to overrate May in June,

143
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 1: but it definitely gives Gabbert a leg up. There's no

144
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: a doubt about that. Well. The fact that the reporting

145
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: Niners and Colin Kaepernick hate each other also gives well. Right,

146
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: And when I say there's maybe more to the story,

147
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. I want to see what happens here.

148
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: Maybe Kaepernick is not rushing back to get on the

149
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: field right away. Who knows? Is he in all the meetings?

150
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: He's doing all that though? Right, So it's long. I mean,

151
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: I think the problem is you're installing a new offense too,

152
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 1: and it's it gives Gabbert. Yes, these months don't mean much,

153
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 1: but Gabbert go rolls into the later phases of the

154
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: off season with a clear advantage over Kaepernick. Moving on,

155
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: mark your greatest offensive threat out there in Cleveland. Uh,

156
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: last season, Gary Bondage has a sports hernia surgery. Um,

157
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: he underwent that surgery recently. He's gonna miss some time.

158
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: He's gonna miss the rest of the off season program

159
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,360
Speaker 1: and uh he will be back for the start of

160
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: training camp or so we Helpe Hope. Barnage signed a

161
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,119
Speaker 1: four year, thirteen point five million dollar extension this offseason.

162
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: Seventy nine catches for a thousand, forty three yards and

163
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: nine touchdowns last season. Mark was that the most productive

164
00:08:55,080 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: Brown season this side of Josh Gordon since what Braylon Edwards? Well,

165
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: Kevin Winslow from a tight end angle. But yeah, I

166
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: mean it comes. It came during a season that couldn't

167
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: have been more forgettable or meaningless, but you know it

168
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: helped him. He got a new contract. Often, I'm not

169
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: worried about a sports hernia in early June. I think

170
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: he'll be fine. Do you want to hear from Gary please?

171
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: I'm gut it, mate, absolutely, Guy Bonnage here, I picked

172
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: up a knock near him, kidbs and butts. They said

173
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: I'll be ready for training camp. Well that's a bit

174
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: of a trope, you know what I mean. I'm got

175
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: it mate. They did not Mega not Mega oh quids

176
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:45,679
Speaker 1: out Gary Bondage out. And that is probably the worst

177
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,079
Speaker 1: British accident I've ever heard. I don't need to hear that.

178
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: I mean, you know it's up there among the worst

179
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: and for for new listeners. Gary Barnage quote unquote is

180
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: not British, but his aim dictates otherwise. Just the sound

181
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: of it, everybody knows, got it Polish whatever, But he'll

182
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: be back. Mark, you're right, not a big deal. Oh yeah,

183
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: sports hernia. That's never been a lingering problem. Well I

184
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: liked that. You know, we can we can brush it off.

185
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: I can say it's not a big deal. Not a

186
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: big deal to me. It might be a big deal

187
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: to the person that just had a knife put into

188
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: the lower part of right. Yeah, someone was at Claibron

189
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: Patrick Cleban, our our friend, you know, as he put it,

190
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:27,320
Speaker 1: talking about a quote unquote miner Sean Lee surgery. Oh yeah, minor,

191
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 1: and they just you know, knocked you out with an asthetex,

192
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 1: cut open your body and in this case, you know,

193
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: change things around in your groin area for something called

194
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,719
Speaker 1: the sports hernia. I mean that sounds think half of

195
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 1: our softball team has sports hernia. Right now, we're really

196
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: beat up. I'm returning to the field, by the way, tonight,

197
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 1: we'll see if the hammy holds up. And and by

198
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 1: the way, yeah, well to Greg's point, you heard the

199
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,599
Speaker 1: disappointment and Gary's voice, so hopefully everything goes well. And

200
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,839
Speaker 1: he is back by training camp. Let's move on, Uh,

201
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 1: Mark you I thought you'd be interested in this. You're

202
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 1: fascinated by diets and things of that nature. And Rodgers

203
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: for years played by something that he called when it

204
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: came to his eating. He called it his eight twenty rule,

205
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: which meant eight percent of the time he would eat

206
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 1: a healthy diet. But then he left that last to

207
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 1: eat whatever he wanted and and he found and obviously

208
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: he's one of the best quarterbacks of all time. That

209
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: that worked for him. However, Uh, that is now changing

210
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: a little bit. And you know who helped him get

211
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: more serious about his nutrition and throwing away the eight

212
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 1: twenty rule, Tom Brady. Of course, this is what Aaron

213
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: Rodgers had to say via ESPN dot com. To be honest,

214
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is an influencer there because of the stuff

215
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: he talks about and how healthy he is. So this

216
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 1: is more about uh, working with the Packers team trainer

217
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: or director of performance nutrition, a guy named Adam Corzon,

218
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: a more scientific approach to what he puts in his body.

219
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: This is lowered, Aaron Rodgers is body percentage of fat

220
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: fat body percentage and has him feeling like he's in

221
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 1: the best shape of his life. Mark. I mean, I like,

222
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: I think if you even I was. I never watched golf,

223
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: for instance, but I was watching it over the weekend.

224
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 1: And I remember growing up there were like we always

225
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,439
Speaker 1: going to assume that you don't really watch any other sports.

226
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: You don't even have to give it up, right, it

227
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: just happened to be on. But remember in the old days,

228
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: there were always two or three giant tongues. There's fat

229
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: guys on the tour. And like, I asked my dad

230
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,719
Speaker 1: because he he watches it, and I said, what what

231
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 1: happened with golf? And it's like every other sport, these

232
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: guys get in the best shape of their lives. Money.

233
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,839
Speaker 1: It's the money. And if you're Aaron Rodgers, if you

234
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 1: can extend your career to the two into your late

235
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: thirties early forties, potentially like Brady wants to do, there's

236
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 1: millions of dollars attached to it. And why not. I mean,

237
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: you're you. You have the ability as a quarterback to

238
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 1: have a nutritionist, to be in the best shape of

239
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: your life. It's I don't want to have a quarterback

240
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 1: that doesn't want to do that. If you read some

241
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: of these long form articles about Brady and his nutritionists.

242
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 1: There's been a couple of them the last couple of years.

243
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: You walk away from reading them with the inescapable fact

244
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 1: that he has a competitive advantage because of how much

245
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: he and his wife make and what they're able to

246
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 1: do scientifically, what is with his body, And it's no

247
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 1: surprise that he's moving better in the pocket now than

248
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: he was five or six years ago. So if you're

249
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, who's probably making the second most money in

250
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: the NFL household combines, yeah, right, he has the means

251
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: and the pathological desire. Let's face it. We have in

252
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 1: our house some Himalayan pink salt and I bought that

253
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: directly toxcellent. You know what I heard Rogers talking up,

254
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,719
Speaker 1: you know in that Pete Holmes podcast he did what

255
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 1: he was talking about his diet and that one too,

256
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 1: he said Crossroads Vegan place on Melrose av Here in

257
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: in l A. I don't know if you've been there,

258
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: but he was a big fan of that. Maybe Sessler's

259
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: onto something bake Burger and the in the many, you know,

260
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: and the whole thing, the Rosenthal diet is going to

261
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 1: be looked back upon at some point, and humans are

262
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: just gonna say, what happened to the Rosenthal family line? Yes,

263
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: human history. We'll look back on that, you know, fifty

264
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: bill million year era where we ate meat as a mistake. Yeah,

265
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,079
Speaker 1: human human, Yeah, right all the time. By the way,

266
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is currently hawking a two d quote nutritional

267
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 1: manual translation cookbook that has sold out multiple pressings on

268
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: his website. I actually took a look at it on

269
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 1: his site yesterday and it looks every bit the two

270
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: hundred dollars. It's like a rich man's cookbook. Mark you're

271
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: a wealthy man? Uh are you going to purchase that?

272
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 1: We don't even have two hundred dollars worth of food

273
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: in our house right now? What are you talking about?

274
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: Do you know how? I know what sold out? Connor

275
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: Or tried to buy it. Yeah, months ago. I think

276
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: this might have been a topic on the podcast and

277
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: lets them crazy. I think it was a private conversation

278
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: amongst us. It was on our instant messenger client, which

279
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: is full of garbage people. He wants to buy it,

280
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: and I support him in there. I'd buy two hundred dollars.

281
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: That's a that's a little ridiculous. The clock. Just to

282
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 1: clarify to the listeners, the people on the instant Messinger

283
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: messenger client that we speak with, they are not the

284
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: garbage people. Is the people that created the client itself. Well,

285
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 1: it does applied occasionally to the people on chatting the

286
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 1: name of the I am client, I should say it,

287
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: of course, out of you know, respect for their company.

288
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: Is that will be bleeped out. Let's take a quick

289
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: interlude on the news a little break. I want to

290
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: touch it, touch a touch it or check in with

291
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: a friend of the show. His name is Vinny house Plan.

292
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: Is that correct to us? Yes, these are one of

293
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: our favorite listeners. Keith who goes by Vinny house plus

294
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: on Twitter, and he he wrote, uh the hair zeus

295
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: remember that song? I think he wrote a banger about us.

296
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: He did. It couldn't be played on the air because

297
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: it's got some blue language anyway, So it's every once

298
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: in a while he'll send us a YouTube video that's

299
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 1: entertainment and a little bit disturbing. He was upset when

300
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: he heard the news. Um, I can't believe the news

301
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 1: today that West went down in cornhole to the old

302
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: zeuser And here's here's what Vinny had to say, I'm

303
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: informed by the way. Second, I just want to paint

304
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: a picture for the audience and we'll send a link out.

305
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: He's in He's in a shed alone with an overgrown beard,

306
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: and his hair is crazy and he's smoking like this, Okay,

307
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: I'm informed that Christopher Wesling, male man, the Great Christopher

308
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: Westling was out bagged by the molded one, Dan hars

309
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: Use the molded one. That's how that got on the show.

310
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: Like this. You want to hear more from him? Sure?

311
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: Out bagged out corn holed by Dan Hass making deliveries

312
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: of his own, throwing bags into holes, dropping packages where

313
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: they go. They all have New Jersey and New York

314
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: tip codes to marry a coax autom wrestling what's happening?

315
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: But they won't falling apart. I'm living in a shed.

316
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: I'm living in a shed, slipping in the shed. Bro

317
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: that guy's great. What what how about how? You you know?

318
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 1: How about that? Though? I mean the corn whole stuff.

319
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 1: You're in a bit of a slub. Let's be fair,

320
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 1: not slump. There's one on one and he lost one

321
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,679
Speaker 1: on one. But I would invite Dan to play one

322
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: on one anytime for the high stakes of high octane sandwich.

323
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 1: I honestly, I don't fear you anymore west although I

324
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: respect you. We were playing against two of Connie Fox's friends,

325
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 1: uh two girls, and they were not very proficient in

326
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 1: the game, so it was essentially a one on one matchup,

327
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 1: and I would not deny that in this particular game,

328
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,959
Speaker 1: Dan out through me, and your grandma, who had never

329
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 1: seen Cornhole play before, would admit that Dan out threw me.

330
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: I mean, by the way, is still a better player

331
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 1: than me. But I'm continuing, I'm thinking about buying the

332
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,680
Speaker 1: shed now. Well, it's it's like a Westling coaching treat

333
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: to some degree. There's no shame in developing players who

334
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: you know the only way they learned is by watching you.

335
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 1: Proud of Dan's accomplishments in this area. Unlike our friend

336
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: Ali Bombury, who refuses due to spin and it's as

337
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: good now as he was three years everybody, Dan has

338
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: gotten incrementally better every week. There there has to be

339
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 1: some risk though, that in this tree whistling is Bill Parcels,

340
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 1: a legend, highly respected, a Hall of Famer, but that

341
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,920
Speaker 1: Dan could one day be Bill Belichick. I like that

342
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: pass him up or I'm Paul Brown and Dan is

343
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: bluntant Collier, you're such a Collier. Brandon has breaking news,

344
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: breaking news into the around the NFL news room. Alan

345
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: Hearns has signed a four year, forty million dollar contract

346
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: extension with the Jacksonville Jaguars, one of the top ninety

347
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: players in the NFL according to the other players. Hmm,

348
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: interesting timing. Why is that got a lot of young

349
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: players that chose to resign him because he was undrafted.

350
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: He's up for an extension a year for most most players,

351
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,719
Speaker 1: most young players would be up. I have no problem

352
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 1: keeping around for a long time that they're building one

353
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 1: of the offenses that will be one of the greats.

354
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: Two years from now we'll be talking about easy. There

355
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 1: s one of the greats. I think so well. He

356
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 1: and on that Blake Bortles train again. You know he

357
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 1: led the league in interceptions last year. Right, I'm not

358
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: getting into that with you again. He and Alan Robinson

359
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: are in the discussion for best wide receiver tandem, certainly

360
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,400
Speaker 1: best young wide receivers. You gotta they gotta start making

361
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 1: some of those old school like you know, posters like

362
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: the Alan Wrench Alan Wrench, and it's got like the

363
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: two Jaguars receivers holding up our ramps or something like

364
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: a blasted out, smoky background. Yeah, the two Alan's. I mean,

365
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:49,919
Speaker 1: we got to see the fine print. He's a solid

366
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 1: number he's a very good number two receiver. If that's

367
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 1: essentially what what he's going to be forgot some weapons.

368
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, So we'll maybe get into that down the

369
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: line when we have more details. But let's move forward. Hey, West,

370
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 1: this one I want to bring up just for you.

371
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: The Denver Broncos, the tooth of the Super Bowl fifty

372
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: champions will visit Barack Obama at the White House, the

373
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: final visit to the White House. Um for NFL team

374
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 1: to Barack Obama. Um, so this came up in the newsroom.

375
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, what a cool thing. And West, you

376
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 1: didn't think it was a cool thing. No, Like it was, No,

377
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 1: it was like, you know, it's a cool thing. Obviously,

378
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: if you win the Super Bowl, you get to go

379
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 1: to the White House, get to what you get to

380
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: go to that you have to go to the White House.

381
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 1: Now you don't, as we know, brock Oswolder is not going.

382
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: But my point is West pulled like a get off

383
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 1: my lawn moment, He's like, I don't want to go

384
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: down to the White House. What do I have to

385
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 1: do with that? Man? It struck me as Unamerican. West

386
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 1: I said, I'd rather fly across the country to Washington,

387
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: d C. To hang out with Dan Hansens, which was

388
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: a nice sun and to meet Barack Obama. I don't

389
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: know that guy. What do I want to Barack Obama for?

390
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: You said that it was basically about any president. What's

391
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: any president? You fell Barack Obama? I like that. You

392
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: said it was like an interesting cadence like Barack Obama.

393
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: I would rather hang out with Mark Sessler than Barack Obama.

394
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: But it wasn't a Barack. You've already done that a

395
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: million times. I would love to meet the president. And

396
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: you get to go to the White House. You go,

397
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 1: you walk in the White House, you live, you live,

398
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 1: you see it, you see it once. You have a

399
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: couple of jokes with the president. That would be great.

400
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: Whatever they bring your girlfriend to the Lincoln bedroom and

401
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 1: close the door, Well it doesn't work that way, but

402
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: you would be quickly taken down by the secrets. N't

403
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 1: know what is the White as of I it's a

404
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 1: historic place, the most famous, uh residential home in America

405
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,239
Speaker 1: and the world. Perhaps I would love to go there.

406
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: I love history as much as anyone, but they don't

407
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 1: really care much for monuments and markers. I don't know,

408
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 1: but this is a living human president. So well, I

409
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: I find your I find a change dark world for

410
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: the better. Oh well, that's a I mean, that's that's

411
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: for the politics. But we're not talking about Abraham Lincoln here, right,

412
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: But I would have, like I would have been happy

413
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: to meet any press it in. Why not? It's just interesting.

414
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: Certainly don't want to meet George W. Bush. You know,

415
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,160
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, well, now I'm a little more.

416
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: I thought this was all heading towards West making a

417
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: formal declaration to get behind Trump in this upcoming I

418
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 1: think this is I believe I've made my point clear

419
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: on this subject. Are your politics? My only my only

420
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: goal is to play defense against Trump in this election.

421
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,359
Speaker 1: You're a big factor in this election, so that's my goal.

422
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 1: Are you guys are while we're talking, and you know,

423
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:32,520

Speaker 1: voting for him, saying are you guys planning to vote?

428
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 1: I would not say that. I am deeply involved in

429
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: California politics. I would ask you whether we were on

430
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: the air or not, I'll be voting for the president.

431
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 1: I was just curious you're gonna pass Greg? Would you okay?

432
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 1: It's it's it's not easy to get around l A

433
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: to get to the voting booth. There's long lines. Would

Speaker 1: our duty. Well, it's a lot that you don't have

439
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 1: to ask Greg. It's literally if you go in our

440
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 1: break room and you look on one little sports but

441
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: you have to go to step away. There are a

442
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: lot of hr imposed rules that Greg has swatted down

443
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: over the years. So I do want to ask Greg,

444
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: please please, Uh yeah, you can go, but you can't

445
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 1: go to not vote, and then you do not need

446
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,920
Speaker 1: to know what I did during that window for you

447
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,600

449
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,600

Speaker 1: brought it up, of course he can. Why not. I

454
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 1: like how the podcast is doubling as a you know,

455
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,760
Speaker 1: a company departmental meeting. My voting district is actually at

456
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: the cozy end. I live close to you. Nine probably

457
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 1: is too. Didn't they out all that kind of stuff

458
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 1: about a hundred years ago? I don't know. Alright, before

459
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 1: we move on, time to check in triplet Triolet troolett.

460
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 1: To Greg's point, you gotta be able to see through

461
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: all the bs, so let's do it. Coach Jeff Fisher rams.

462
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,680
Speaker 1: Coach Jeff Fisher believes that Tavon Austin can quote double

463
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: his fifty two catches from last season. Man, that's a

464
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 1: hundred and four catches. I don't even know if Jared

465
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: Goff will have a hundred and four completions next season.

466
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: What's the record for most bubble screens in the season.

467
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 1: I mean, how many other pass routes is to Tavon

468
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 1: Austin running? You know you tweeted that yesterday and then

469
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: I replied he's gonna leave the league in yuck uh

470
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: and then you know, not my greatest bit. But then

471
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: I got into like a seven part back and forth

472
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 1: with some person on Twitter that didn't understand the joke.

473
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: There was a lot of handholding going kind of helping

474
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: him through it. You can come around, you can figure

475
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:14,919
Speaker 1: this out. Come on bro Triplet triplet tropolet. Jordy Nelson

476
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: is coming back from a tour in a c L

477
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: has declared himself ready to go at Packers Otis. Here's

478
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 1: this quote. If there was a game on Sunday, I'm playing.

479
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: What's not to believe here? Didn't he tears a cl

480
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 1: in August? He should be it was the preseason game.

481
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,200
Speaker 1: I should be ready that. There is a lot of

482
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: the well, if there was a game, there's also a

483
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: lot of players where if they're they're missing bag, well,

484
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: if there was, if it was a game week, I'd

485
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: be playing. That's a big one. That is one of them.

486
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 1: That's maybe my favorite one. If there was a game tomorrow,

487
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: there was a game Sunday, if there was a game today,

488
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 1: it's your favorite one because it means nothing. Absolutely, That's

489
00:25:51,080 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 1: what makes it triplet triplet tropolet true. Hey, guys, Jim

490
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 1: Brown has a title with the Cleveland Browns. He's the

491
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,520
Speaker 1: team's consultant. He's been a communication with Josh Gordon, the

492
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 1: suspended wide receiver, and Brown believes that Gordon is quote

493
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: ready to take responsibility for himself. I've heard this one before.

494
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: I think it's a trope because the last time, well,

495
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 1: I think, you know, Brown is giving us the information

496
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: that he has. But it comes down to, I don't

497
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 1: think we can trust any of this until a the

498
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: league brings him back and be Gordon actually stays you know,

499
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 1: out of trouble long enough to be in a game

500
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,879
Speaker 1: until it happens. I don't think we really he just

501
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: doesn't deserve our trust of this. I don't even think

502
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: that's the main trope in this trope. Alert to me,

503
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: the where Jim Brown stands with the Browns is an

504
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 1: annual trope that Cleveland writers have been doing since two

505
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 1: thousand and two. It's always does the ownership group or

506
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: the new GM get along with Jim Brown or not,

507
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 1: and what what his situation is. This is one of

508
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: my biggest pet thieves among writers. Who cares what Joe

509
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 1: Namath thinks about the Jets quarterback situation? Who cares what

510
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 1: Joe Thiesman thinks about the Redskins? Well, he is on

511
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: their payroll, right he is now. But then there's been

512
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 1: there's been times when Mike Homegren didn't embrace him. That

513
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: was a big problem. But this other coaches like the

514
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: Maninie era didn't embrace him, and so that was a problem.

515
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 1: So it's kind of the where Jim Brown's, Jim Brown's

516
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: bad organizations do a bad job with their alumni, and

517
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 1: that has been the case for a long time with

518
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 1: the Browns and Jim Brown's, to his credit, he now

519
00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,840
Speaker 1: that Trent Richardson was a bust. Oh yeah, look well

520
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,000
Speaker 1: he called him. He called he was not as there

521
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: was nothing special about I mean, looks right. Look to

522
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,480
Speaker 1: be clear, Jim Brown probably the best football player of

523
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 1: all time and one of, if not the most important

524
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,080
Speaker 1: football players of all time for lots of reasons. So

525
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 1: if anyone deserves the attention, it's well it's we're to

526
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 1: believe Josh, I mean, until he stops hanging out with

527
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,640
Speaker 1: Johnny Manziel, I'm not gonna believe that anything was Absolutely

528
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: speaking of Cleveland sports, I just want to touch on

529
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,160
Speaker 1: this because I find this kind of an entertaining little

530
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 1: subplot in my circle of friends. The NBA Finals starts tonight.

531
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 1: The Cleveland Cavaliers go back to the Finals for the

532
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 1: second year in a row under lebron Uh. They're facing

533
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: off against the Golden State Warriors across, who are heavy favorites.

534
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,399
Speaker 1: And Mark, you're now plugged in to the n b

535
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: A and you're saying that you're rooting for the Browns

536
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 1: and you're picking the brown or excuse me, you're rooting

537
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: for the Calves and you're picking the Calves in seven. Well,

538
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: let's be honest, you're rooting against them. Sneaky because you

539
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: want the Browns to break that but leveland titles streak.

540
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 1: Admit it. Just that. No, no, no, no, no, hold on,

541
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 1: admit it, you know, because any good thing that happens

542
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: to Cleveland, I'm I'm completely for honestly, and I'm not.

543
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 1: I don't buy it. Well you don't have to, but

544
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: I'm not from Mark on this. I We watched at

545
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: the garage last year quite a few of these finals games,

546
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: and you were wearing Cleveland shirts. You were supporting them

547
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: and saying the exact same thing that it's because it's Cleveland.

548
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 1: They've suffered so much. You just want to see them that.

549
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 1: If I have, if I could have my way, I'm

550
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: only I'm a Browns fan, I would have the Browns win.

551
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,600
Speaker 1: But if if that's not the way it's to be,

552
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 1: If it's gonna be the calves, that city deserves it,

553
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: just like just your hearts, you don't, you don't really

554
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: you're not living and dying on the calves. But I'm

555
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: open about that. But I think the city of Cleveland

556
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: is really now buying into the romanticism of believe land

557
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 1: and woe is us and blah blah blah, and you

558
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: you want it's it's with like the Red Sox. That's

559
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 1: how Bill Simmons game a millionaires. I I don't want

560
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: my daddy to die without ever seeing a title. You

561
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: want the Browns to be the one that ends all

562
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: the suffering and they become just the absolute legendary. Ideally,

563
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: but I'm not I'm not stubborn about that. If that's

564
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: not how it happens. If it happens another way, good

565
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: for them. I don't buy it. If it's a like

566
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: a UFC fight or whoever that guy who won that thing,

567
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: I'm not that's not it. I mean, before for thirty

568
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: it was a legendary NFL dot com article by Mark Sesler. Well,

569
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 1: I did not coin the phrase. Just to be clear,

570
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: I started, belie, but you were ahead of It's been

571
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 1: around for years and years. All right, that's what's happening

572
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: in the news. I mean, it's you know, not not

573
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: a serious topic. But I know you. Mark. Let's play

574
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: one of our favorite games more. Let's go around the

575
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: horn here once. Maybe maybe if somebody else has another one,

576
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: we could throw out another after the horn roundage. What's

577
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: more likely, Mark, get us gone baby? All right? What

578
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: is more likely? Frank Gore rushes for a thousand yards.

579
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: The aging Frank Gore or Greg Rosenthal, gets fed up

580
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: enough with his off complaining higher lings to ditch the

581
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: NFL this summer for the shores of Massachusetts, where he

582
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 1: authors a long awaited sequel to his act play The

583
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 1: Winds of Edgar Town and Martha's Vineyard Love Saga, as

584
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: seen through the eyes of Billingsley Xavier Rosenthal. The fourth

585
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 1: isn't this the exact same thing you did with the last?

586
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 1: What's more likely? No, except it was writing a tennis blog? Uh,

587
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: that comes up later. What's what's more likely? Sassler comes

588
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: up with a new bit for what's more likely? Or

589
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,239
Speaker 1: the you know Brown's I don't know, that's all I got.

590
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 1: I don't I'm not buying. I'm not buying into Frank

591
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 1: Gore in that backfield. That's the Now you're gonna make

592
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 1: it a serious conversation about football. That's my gist. Wait,

593
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 1: wasn't your other one had to do with Francore as well?

594
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 1: I think you really had. I will get my message across.

595
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: Frank or could run for a thousand yards, That's not

596
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: that much of an achievement. That's sixty yards a game

597
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: if he stays healthy. Greg will never go back to

598
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 1: New England. He doesn't necessarily really identify with the region.

599
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 1: He views himself as kind of a New Yorker because

600
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: he lived there for ten years. We know his feelings

601
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,719
Speaker 1: about New Orleans. Jesus, he loves that place, and now

602
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: he likes it out here in l A. So I

603
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,719
Speaker 1: would say that it wouldn't even get a medal, wouldn't

604
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 1: even get the bronze if it were a place. It's fair.

605
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: Dan has lived in Massachusetts much, you know, not much more,

606
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: but he's more recently than me. I haven't been back,

607
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,479
Speaker 1: you know, living since I was in. I didn't get

608
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 1: the sense you were anti Massachusetts. I say anti, but

609
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 1: he's I think you're done. It's not like I don't

610
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 1: see much. Doesn't seem like a eig point in moving

611
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 1: back there. My answer, well, I do think that Greg

612
00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 1: might be getting sick of his hirelings. But Massachusetts might

613
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 1: be the wrong place to move to. Maybe it's New Orleans.

614
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 1: M hmm. What do you think if you change it

615
00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,320
Speaker 1: to New Orleans? Then we might be onto something. So

616
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: we're not into Frank Gore though, No, I think Frank

617
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: gar could get over a thousand yards. Nice player though,

618
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: might go to the Hall of Fame. Probably not, though

619
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: good career. West Time will tell, dude. I'll go with

620
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 1: the football heavy one and save the other one. Okay,

621
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: what more likely? Andrew Luck recaptures two thousand fourteen form.

622
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 1: Ryan Kelly holds that old line together Philip Dorsett and

623
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 1: Dante Dante Moncrief make the leap and the Colts post

624
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: the NFL's highest octane offense in two thousand sixteen, or

625
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 1: Tony Roman does Bryant recapture two thousand fourteen form with

626
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott joined DeMarco Murray two thousand four team impressing,

627
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys become the NFL's highest octane offense. Mm hmmm.

628
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: I am bullish on the Colts winning that division and

629
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 1: rebounding this year. And yet I'm still gonna take the

630
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 1: Cowboys because that is a nice looking offensive roster and

631
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 1: I still believe in Tony Romo, healthy Tony Tony Romo

632
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 1: being a top level quarterbacks. So I think that is

633
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 1: more likely. But it wouldn't shock me if both of

634
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: those teams are top five offenses this year. I think

635
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 1: it's certainly possible. I agree there. The question marks are

636
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: a little bigger with Dallas. Is Dez gonna come back

637
00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 1: and still be Dez? I have some concern and he

638
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: you know, there was a report out yesterday that he's

639
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,479
Speaker 1: getting closer to being cleared. But he strikes me as

640
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 1: a guy, and I this is a fear of mine

641
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 1: because he's one of my favorite players to watch that.

642
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: He might have be one of those guys that has

643
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 1: a trunk aided prime between the foot injuries and the

644
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: back issues. We'll see how he bounces back from last season,

645
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: which was basically a lost year, and we know Tony

646
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 1: Romos one hit away from his career. You're being over.

647
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: I think the culture the safer bet. I'm going Cowboys

648
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 1: because we've seen them come very close to what you

649
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: just discussed. They basically were that team in two thousand fourteen.

650
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,760
Speaker 1: The offensive line still intact and that's a huge reason

651
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: for that. I know injuries aren't predictive, but man, I

652
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: I think it's a it's a tough sell that Tony

653
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: Romo gets through sixteen games. If he does, they can

654
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 1: be great. Mine was kind of des related, so I

655
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: will skip my turn. More likely, what's more likely Tavon

656
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: Austin actually does catch a hundred passes this year or

657
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: the other one, ravn Rex Ryan lead a resurgent Bills

658
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: offense back into the top five defense defense rather sorry

659
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: a k Mark Sessler's Worst Nightmare, or Mark Sessler writes

660
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 1: an overly optimistic Brown's article between now and Well. The

661
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: last time I did that, Greg, I was at the

662
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame, uh event, and it went into Cleveland

663
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 1: and came back later and never was reimbursed by the

664
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 1: league from my travels. So that's not going to be

665
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: happening again. You're settling old scores like rob Ron. Right,

666
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 1: You're not going to be happening again. You act like

667
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: that was my fault. It's not your fault at all.

668
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 1: I blame the robots running whatever is happening inside the

669
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,759
Speaker 1: NFL's payroll system. To be clear, I'm just trying to

670
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,080
Speaker 1: get back at you for your what's more likely? Sure,

671
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:27,799
Speaker 1: if that was I forgot what the first two were.

672
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,240
Speaker 1: Robin Rex leading the top. Let's make it three bills

673
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 1: defense or hundred catches from Tavon Austin. I'm gonna go

674
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,720
Speaker 1: with the hundred catches because I think in today's NFL

675
00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,839
Speaker 1: coaches can manufacture a hundred catches for a wide receiver

676
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,719
Speaker 1: whenever they want. Look at the way the Dolphins have

677
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 1: manufactured a hundred catches for Jarvis Landry. He's got a

678
00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: great player. He's a pretty good wide receiver who has

679
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,920
Speaker 1: a hundred catches because they throw him short passes. But

680
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,040
Speaker 1: he's great after the The reason they do that because

681
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 1: the rest of their team not a lot of great weapons,

682
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 1: and right one out of everything, she does something special.

683
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,400
Speaker 1: Ram should have done that with Tavon Austin last year.

684
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 1: What am I missing? By the way, Tavon Austin has

685
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: been in the league for four years now. They traded

686
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 1: up to get him and saw him as the centerpiece

687
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 1: of their offense. They've been trying to make him a

688
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: superstar for years, and they kept your missing. He was

689
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: a really good player last year. Yeah, but I mean

690
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 1: how close did he come to undercatches? That's sixty two

691
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 1: different offensive coordinators, neither of which we would call creative there.

692
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: And I would go with Rex and Rob that I

693
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 1: will say, like they probably won't have a top three defense,

694
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 1: but if Rex had a nice back bounce back season,

695
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: Rob has had some nice seasons, maybe they are a

696
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 1: good team together and they make magic in poor Dennis

697
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: Thurman is left holding the bag and kicked out the door.

698
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 1: And I mean we I think almost we're forgetting how

699
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:49,040
Speaker 1: much talent is still there? Stepan Gilmar and Ronald Darby's

700
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 1: the best young in the league. You still have Jerry Hughes.

701
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 1: You still defensive line is a shadow of what it

702
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 1: was two years ago. But even on even even though

703
00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: that's true, you still have Marcel Darius, Jerry Hughes, uh,

704
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: Kyle Williams coming back. I mean, compare that who's what

705
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,919
Speaker 1: now in his mid thirties coming off a series That's fine.

706
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, compare it to the other defensive lines

707
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 1: in the league. It's not like it's a bad, bad defense.

708
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: I'm going bills and I don't buy into either of

709
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 1: these scenarios on any level, not even close. But the

710
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 1: idea that Jeff Fisher is going to manufacture with a

711
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,800
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback and a run heavy offense, a one hundred

712
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 1: catch receiver, I don't see it happening. Or Mike Petton

713
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:32,400
Speaker 1: getting back into the news because he was surreptitiously taping

714
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,319
Speaker 1: Brown's practices from that that house that he bought right

715
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,360
Speaker 1: next to training camp. That would be all sending it

716
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 1: to other teams there. No, I think it's team housing.

717
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 1: I don't think that they're still having it would be

718
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: very stiff. I think he's more resilient than that. All right,

719
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 1: I got I'll throw one of them out there. Now,

720
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:58,640
Speaker 1: what more likely? What's more likely? You pick up a

721
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: deranged female hitchhiker, t sure and tell him large march,

722
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 1: thank you, what turns you into a skin lamp? Or

723
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 1: The Niners post a combined quarterback passer rating of eight

724
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 1: seven this season, which is kind of close to the

725
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 1: league average, maybe a tack above, But I feel like

726
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,359
Speaker 1: skin lamp chance, somebody's turning you into a skin lamp

727
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 1: when you pitch up it. Wait, so this is saying

728
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: if you pick pitch up a hichshiker, the odds and

729
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 1: that's happening, not that that I will pitch up, pick

730
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 1: up a hitchicker. Let's pick let's pick up if you

731
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 1: pick up a deranged female it's a female hitchhiker, that

732
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 1: she turned you into a skin lamp. Yeah, it's like

733
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:50,399
Speaker 1: today's squeaky from the Niners post pass ready of eighty seven.

734
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Niners because I mean, we've seen the

735
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 1: chip Kelly is not a popular guy right now, but

736
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: we've seen a guy like Nick Foles produce a pretty

737
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 1: statistically person steen campaign. So I have no problem with,

738
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 1: honestly in Blaine Gabbert if he can run that system

739
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: even pretty well. And eighties seven quarterback rating is not

740
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 1: that it is not that good these days, right, it's not.

741
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,879
Speaker 1: We were talking about its stairs. Ryan Tannehill has better,

742
00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: you know, career numbers, you know, per year than Terry

743
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 1: Bradshaw and Joe Namath and Hall of Famers. Numbers are

744
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: easy to get these days. That's why I'm going with

745
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,359
Speaker 1: the niners. We've given up on all this, Chip Kelly Love.

746
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: Blaine Gabbert did pretty well with your boy Jim, Jim Tomsula,

747
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 1: Chris Wesley. And the problem with this is you were

748
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 1: too specific with the old what is it called the

749
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 1: skin lamp? Yeah, I mean she takes a lot of work, right, exactly,

750
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: she could do a lot of different things, uh with

751
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 1: with your dead body after after she's done with you.

752
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 1: Skin lamps just one option, Niners, I will say, let

753
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 1: me just throw this out of there. Blaine Gabbert in

754
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 1: thirty five career starts, eight and seven record with a

755
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 1: passer rating of seventy one point nine. Well that's your

756
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 1: It seems a little hot. You're talking jags Blaine Gabbert

757
00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 1: though too. I understand we're not. We're not calling him

758
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 1: Joe Montana's cousin, but it's like he's Carl Montana. Yeah,

759
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:15,040
Speaker 1: being related to Joe Montana does not guarantee great quarterback

760
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,279
Speaker 1: play as Terry Montana. It's to Lane learned when they

761
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: started his son for a year. Neither way. Colin Kaepernick's

762
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 1: career QB rating point four passerrating just saying, who's Colin cap? Yeah,

763
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:30,320
Speaker 1: well he's on the team. I mean he was awesome

764
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: when he started. He walked on water as Uh. One more,

765
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 1: who wants to throw it out? Who's got one? All right?

766
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 1: Queen City? Oh do we need to do that? What's

767
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: more likely? Of course? Queen City anti heroes Andy Dalton

768
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,760
Speaker 1: and Marvin Lewis lead the Bengals to a victory in January,

769
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:54,399
Speaker 1: ending the NFL's longest playoff victory route at twenty five

770
00:40:54,520 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 1: years or Cincinnati native and recovered Bengals fan Chris Westling

771
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 1: finds his one true love, that one winsome tulip wrestled

772
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: in the elusive sweet spot between slightly flawed and broken

773
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 1: beyond repair, ending his twenty five year marriage drought. M

774
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: you were married. You were married at age seventeen. Well,

775
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 1: since I started dating, okay, okay, mm hmm uh, that's

776
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: a good one. I will say that west has made

777
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:31,479
Speaker 1: a tremendous um gains. Really an effort more than anything else,

778
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 1: and getting out there and meeting women. And I know

779
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,400
Speaker 1: he's met some women that he enjoys their company. H

780
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 1: But as what's going to find the one is we's

781
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 1: ready to settle down. Truly, I'm gonna go with the Bengals.

782
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 1: I think it's more likely that the Bengals winning playoff

783
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 1: games there do they're really do. I think it's both

784
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: things will happen within the next couple of years. But

785
00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 1: I think the Bengals are gonna do it in January.

786
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 1: You might. You might do it in March. The Beals.

787
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 1: The Beals, you might do it in March. I think

788
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:05,640
Speaker 1: they're gonna be just a step ahead of you. Let

789
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,040
Speaker 1: see both things happen, yest. Unlike Dan, I believe in you,

790
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 1: and I believe in your quest for true love. And

791
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,320
Speaker 1: there's some you know, like Dan said, there's been some

792
00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 1: some good prospects here lately. Uh, the hit rate is rising,

793
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,280
Speaker 1: and I think you can do it. And the Bengals,

794
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 1: as you've said, Bengals fans, they don't deserve, they don't

795
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: get things. Good thing. I'd like to think I can

796
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,959
Speaker 1: have nice times it's time for the Bengals, in their

797
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:35,439
Speaker 1: little pretty little playoff streak to end. That thing is over,

798
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 1: and I see no. I see Wes putting in the

799
00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 1: effort that he was not putting in or willing to

800
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 1: embrace about a year ago. So these two things coming together.

801
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: I'm pro West in this one. But you're saying the

802
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: Bengals streaks gonna end as well. You're saying the West

803
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,520
Speaker 1: is more likely, West is going to find love. But

804
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 1: they're not even in the equation. I see it's dirt

805
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:05,640
Speaker 1: and app time, and since wait, I want to hear

806
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 1: Mark's other. What's more? I like how all right, we're returning,

807
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 1: though to a very damaging future. I like that you've

808
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:15,920
Speaker 1: turned around your white collar upbringing and now turning it

809
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 1: around on me. Greg wanted to keep the show going

810
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 1: just a little bit longer. It was worth a hit.

811
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:30,479
Speaker 1: More likely, it's twenty six, a war torn America three

812
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 1: is just beginning to embrace its newfound freedom after two

813
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,799
Speaker 1: civil wars and a military invasion from angry humanoids who

814
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 1: came from below the sea. What's more likely one Gregg

815
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 1: and West, reunited after years apart, are living together in

816
00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: a ramshackle Iowa flophouse, where Greg with Wesley and as

817
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: as his as his lead analyst, serves as editor in

818
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,360
Speaker 1: chief for Around the Battlefront, a review of weekly military

819
00:43:55,440 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 1: movements in apocalyptic US, or in this same eque world,

820
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:04,280
Speaker 1: Colleen Wolf and Lindsay Rhodes become gunn for higher bounty

821
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: hunters in a matriarchal society, traveling from town to town,

822
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 1: exacting revenge to keep bread on the table, while laughing

823
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 1: to themselves over shots of whiskey about the fact that

824
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 1: daily fantasy football was actually a thing. We almost missed

825
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 1: that on that I I am going that it's more

826
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 1: likely Colleen and Lindsay would be vigilantes. And it's even

827
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,760
Speaker 1: more likely that Mark ripped that. What's more likely straight

828
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,840
Speaker 1: from his dreams last night, that is, not came up

829
00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:43,800
Speaker 1: with it at the desk, so kind of like a

830
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 1: Charlie's their own in um max type. Yeah, it would be.

831
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:53,360
Speaker 1: It would be in that world. Colleen and Lindsay Rhodes

832
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: is two undaunted women who who could take on the

833
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 1: bounty hunter rule. And I think it's exceptionally likely that

834
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 1: in two thousand thirties six many people will be looking

835
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 1: back and shaking their heads at Daily Fantasy Football. That's true,

836
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 1: and I you know, I love writing, but I don't

837
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 1: know if blogging about around the battlefront down it sounds

838
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 1: like a lot of fun. It's kind of clickbait if

839
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 1: you have I'm with I'm with the Connie Fox Top

840
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: ten questionable decisions by the latest general We're all gonna die.

841
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 1: Five reasons why. All right, that's it for what's more

842
00:45:28,840 --> 00:45:31,960
Speaker 1: likely before we go. I do want to, um, I know,

843
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:33,759
Speaker 1: we get a lot of people that are interested in

844
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,600
Speaker 1: our softball team, The Shield now two and two, after

845
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 1: a blowout victory over our rival other NFL media franchise,

846
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 1: the Media Mashers, big twenty three to three victory last Thursday.

847
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,080
Speaker 1: Now we're back on the field against the Flying Sheep.

848
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 1: But unfortunately, in my role as both the manager and

849
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: the you know, um, I guess the owner, some type

850
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: of high ranking official in the runt office had to

851
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,280
Speaker 1: make I had to make an announcement and the Austin

852
00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 1: is as follows uh for immediate release. June second, two

853
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: thousand sixteen, The Shield make roster move. The Shield announced

854
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:11,640
Speaker 1: today that outfielder slash d H. David Really has been

855
00:46:11,680 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 1: suspended for two games for conduct conduct detric detrimental to

856
00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 1: the team. UM Here was a statement from manager Dan

857
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,600
Speaker 1: hanzas we value what David brings to our organization, but

858
00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:25,600
Speaker 1: believe his absence for the next two weeks is the

859
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 1: most prudent move for all parties involved. David must decide

860
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 1: if his priorities are with the Shield going forward. On Thursday,

861
00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:35,000
Speaker 1: Nights and West, there was some digging done on the

862
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,839
Speaker 1: reporting front about why Italy was suspended. Correct. I wasn't

863
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,919
Speaker 1: sure of the rules until I read NFL soft NFL

864
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: Media softball insider Kevin Patra just disclosed through sources close

865
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:50,280
Speaker 1: to the situation that David Eally had planned to skip

866
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,640
Speaker 1: the softball game tonight to watch Golden State Warriors in

867
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:58,880
Speaker 1: Cleveland Cavaliers not even his teams. So it's disappointing. So

868
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: he was suspended for a game that he was going

869
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:05,879
Speaker 1: to skip anyways, Yes, but and he suspended next week.

870
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: It was I sent a message, so I figured, Irishman,

871
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 1: if we could get um eee on the phone. I

872
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 1: know he's not in the office anymore, so let's get

873
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,719
Speaker 1: his UM cell phone and really talk to him, because

874
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 1: I think and the official stance from the Shield is

875
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:21,880
Speaker 1: no comment on patricks reporting, but you could read between

876
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:23,799
Speaker 1: the lines. Let's now see if we can get Eale

877
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:25,840
Speaker 1: on the phone to answer to his behavior and now

878
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 1: his suspension. Then I have our teammate, David ealely right

879
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:37,319
Speaker 1: here for you. Okay, good scip, what's up? Um listen Dave.

880
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 1: But I got you on the line here because it's

881
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,440
Speaker 1: important that we we clear the air on what happened

882
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 1: here the suspension. I know you've appealed the suspension. Unfortunately

883
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,840
Speaker 1: for you, uh, the appeal is being heard by Mark Sessler,

884
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,880
Speaker 1: who was privately telling me that you should be released

885
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 1: outright from the team. So I don't think that the

886
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,839
Speaker 1: suspension is going to get overturned. I mean, that's that's

887
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 1: how troubling here because I know that I felt that

888
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,960
Speaker 1: I had a good chance with Mark hearing my appeal.

889
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:08,479
Speaker 1: But um, you know, sometimes if it's not gonna happen,

890
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:10,400
Speaker 1: it's not gonna happen. I'm willing to sit out my

891
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:13,360
Speaker 1: suspension if aestival of the cases, Dave, I am willing

892
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 1: to listen objectively. But I yes, it is true that

893
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: when I found out that you know, this team is

894
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:22,239
Speaker 1: at a crossroads, and I'm not saying that you're the

895
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,800
Speaker 1: you know, the Reggie Jackson of this group. But anyone

896
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 1: that says, hey, I'm just gonna go sit on my

897
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:32,319
Speaker 1: couch with my bros And watch like an NBA game, Yeah,

898
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,600
Speaker 1: I just it's the it's sort of do we or

899
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 1: does the team need a locker room cancer right now?

900
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,919
Speaker 1: Or do they not need that. I just want to say,

901
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,640
Speaker 1: first of all, I was blindsided by the suspension. I

902
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 1: thought I did an upstanding move by walking over to

903
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 1: Dan this morning and informing him my intentions to watch

904
00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:50,799
Speaker 1: said basketball games so he could make the line up

905
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 1: adjustment as necessary. So I thought that that was the

906
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 1: right thing to do. So let me total a millennial move. Yeah,

907
00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 1: it is a bit of a millennial move. And let

908
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,399
Speaker 1: me just say that the suspension came down because while

909
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 1: I was preparing for an NFL Now hit, I was

910
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 1: made aware, because I have birds all around me, that

911
00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:11,480
Speaker 1: you said that you didn't care about the team. And

912
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 1: that's when I knew a message had to be said.

913
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 1: Because I have teammates sitting in your area. It's very

914
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,319
Speaker 1: important that everybody is invested in the team. And when

915
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:21,200
Speaker 1: I have one bad apple h running his mouth, he's

916
00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: got to get shut down now. I mean, I don't

917
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,799
Speaker 1: want to speak for your sources, but that's a load

918
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 1: of bs. I love this team. I brought caprit Son

919
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 1: and orange places for this team. That I'm the one

920
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 1: that I'm trying. I'm trying to bring this team some

921
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 1: some some immunity and some nostalgia back to him tonight. Right, Well,

922
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,320
Speaker 1: you're not bringing him base hits. I mean from what

923
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 1: I what do you think about the source David Ealy

924
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 1: that says there's a double standard here, that that if

925
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:56,400
Speaker 1: you were a little more effective in the field, then

926
00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:59,879
Speaker 1: you might not be getting a suspension here. Well, I yes,

927
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 1: I've I've throwed the plate of lights. Um that I

928
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:05,160
Speaker 1: saw a sports psychologist over the last week. I try

929
00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:07,759
Speaker 1: to tackle those demons. But I can't speak for my

930
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:10,080
Speaker 1: play in the field because I've been allowed to play

931
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 1: in the field. Um. But that's a that's a topic

932
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:14,640
Speaker 1: for another day. I've seen you play in the field.

933
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,760
Speaker 1: Our official stance on whether we have a double standard

934
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,279
Speaker 1: is no comment. I would I would like to vouch

935
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:24,200
Speaker 1: for David Eale that he did. He has supported the team,

936
00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:26,400
Speaker 1: he has played the role of the team. Mom he

937
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 1: brought oranges I think that should be fact. I'll take

938
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,879
Speaker 1: that into account absolutely in the appeal. How about this? Um?

939
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,239
Speaker 1: How about this? Mark? Well, let me first ask you this,

940
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:39,839
Speaker 1: uh eally, in terms of your disappointment level up right now?

941
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,840
Speaker 1: Where does it rank? Like this suspension of the embarrassment

942
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 1: that comes with this and you know what happened with

943
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 1: your college girlfriend and how that didn't work, because that

944
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:51,279
Speaker 1: really killed you. I know that was stuck to the

945
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:53,279
Speaker 1: ribs a little bit. He gave me the courtesy of

946
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:57,319
Speaker 1: breaking up with me face to face other than an email. Wow,

947
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:02,200
Speaker 1: it was a press release and uh okay. So and finally, Mark,

948
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 1: I think now that we're here and everybody's involved, maybe

949
00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:09,120
Speaker 1: this conserves the appeal process. You could either overturn the appeal,

950
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 1: cut it. You can cut it down to one game.

951
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 1: You could wipe it out entirely. Do you want to

952
00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 1: maybe give your ruling right now? And I want to

953
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:16,960
Speaker 1: put in rush No, no, I I have a decision,

954
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,359
Speaker 1: and it's I think I want to say number one.

955
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:22,680
Speaker 1: I recognize that you did bring Capri's son Dave to

956
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 1: the last game and Orange SLA as well, and that

957
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: you you have shown effort. You saw sports psychologists, but

958
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 1: I'm not going to reverse or change the ruling at all,

959
00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,879
Speaker 1: and it's not negative on you. But I'm not gonna

960
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,120
Speaker 1: underman undermine Dan's decision because I think then suddenly you

961
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 1: have a team that's floating with a manager that looks powerless.

962
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:42,320
Speaker 1: So I want to I want to keep Dan in

963
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,840
Speaker 1: full power. I respect his decision, and you've got the

964
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,759
Speaker 1: rest of the season, David Eally, to show that you

965
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,440
Speaker 1: do care. This can be quite the redemption story. I

966
00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:54,279
Speaker 1: think so too. That's fair, that's fair. Um, I'm not

967
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:57,600
Speaker 1: happy about it, but I respect your decision, and um,

968
00:51:57,640 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna leave it that. I'm not gonna

969
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,200
Speaker 1: pull up Brady move and try to appeal to the

970
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:04,160
Speaker 1: Supreme Court or anything like that. So why would you

971
00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:06,520
Speaker 1: don't really care about being on the field? So I

972
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 1: mean that you know that makes sense. Well, that's certainly

973
00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 1: very classy of you, Dave, and I appreciate you getting

974
00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: on the phone with us, even though the appeal didn't

975
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 1: work out. We look forward to seeing you in three

976
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 1: weeks and I think we could really finish strongly together.

977
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: I have a question, Yes, is win one for day?

978
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:28,640
Speaker 1: Is gonna be a part of the strategy time. The

979
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:30,880
Speaker 1: answer is probably not. I'm just being honest with you.

980
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:34,680
Speaker 1: We're probably gonna forget about this within five seconds of

981
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:37,800
Speaker 1: you hanging up the phone. Sounds good, all right, Go

982
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,239
Speaker 1: get him? Go get him tonight. David Elie, talent to

983
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:44,920
Speaker 1: desk editor for NFL dot Com also, um, you know,

984
00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 1: now suspended for two games. It's official. The appeal was

985
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 1: denied by Merton Hanks, I mean Mark Cessler, and we

986
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:56,839
Speaker 1: move forward as a team. So that's it. Good show, guys,

987
00:52:57,120 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 1: fun show. We'll be back on Monday day show. I

988
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 1: don't make the post show grade. That's up for the

989
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 1: audience to decide. But I thought you guys, and I

990
00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 1: can only speak for the both the three of you

991
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 1: and of course the iris from behind the glass. I

992
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 1: think you guys all did a plus work. Good job, yeah,

993
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 1: and good job of Itally, we'll be back Monday, another

994
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,239
Speaker 1: full week of shows, and and I think we have

995
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:25,120
Speaker 1: to while we're facing controversies, We're gonna have to touch

996
00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,440
Speaker 1: base with Dave Damashek, who has been a possession of

997
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 1: Chris Westling's toaster for way too long. So we gotta

998
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:34,359
Speaker 1: bring that to the forefront next. But that's for another week.

999
00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,359
Speaker 1: For now we say so long. This is Dan hands

1003
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:35,560
Speaker 1: My heart aches. The Dwain Bow givings Henry sentence, don't

1004

Speaker 1: forget Jersey. Yes he'll arn. He's a SA personal hardship
