52
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. At one point this past season, the

53
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: Jets look like a playoff team. Then they lost six

54
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: in a row to end the season, fell out of contention,

55
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: and they do have a close to win now roster.

56
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 1: It certainly feels I think they're another year away, but

57
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: with the right quarterback like Aaron Rodgers, and he's bringing

58
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: in all of his friends. They just signed Alan Lazard,

59
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: Randall Cobb is on the wish list and Mercedes Lewis,

60
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Junior the third on there as well. You

61
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: got Rogers former quarterback coach Nathaniel Hackett. They brought him

62
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 1: in in the offseason, so things are looking promising. Now

63
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: all they need is Aaron Rodgers to agree. He's going

64
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: to be on the Pat McAfee show. If you haven't heard,

65
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: he's going to be on his show later today. I

66
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: thought that Rogers would be on there yesterday and make

67
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: the announcement, maybe makes the announcement today on Pats show.

68
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: But I started to wonder about this. Remember when Lebron

69
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: had the decision and it was about I'm taking my

70
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: talents to South Beach and he didn't really give Cleveland

71
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: a proper goodbye, And I wondered, does Aaron Rodgers learn

72
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: from that and have a proper goodbye to Green Bay

73
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: and then you can talk about maybe going to the

74
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: Jets or if you show up on McAfee show, and

75
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: I'm assuming he's going to have something to say, what

76
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: would be more shocking He shows up and goes, I'm

77
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: going to the Jets, or I haven't made my decision.

78
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: I'm thinking if he says I haven't made my decision,

79
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: that would be shocking to people. Feels like he knows

80
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: where he's going. If you have a wish list here,

81
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 1: people have a problem with the wish list. I don't, Hey,

82
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: you're asking me to go there. I want to be comfortable.

83
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: I want my guys now. I do think they already

84
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: have good wide receivers. You know, Garrett Wilson is a

85
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: wonderful wide receiver, but you know, and Davis is a

86
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: really good wide receiver as well. Marcedes Lewis, I don't

87
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: see him playing a lot at Randall Cobb, but maybe

88
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: they're good locker room guys. Lizard is a good second receiver,

89
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: maybe third receiver on that team. But Rogers wants, you know,

90
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: it's like having comfort food. He wants to have his

91
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: guys there. I don't have a problem with it. I mean,

92
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: you can ask for things, things that you know people

93
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,359
Speaker 1: in my industry or movie stars or musicians asked for.

94
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: You can ask for a lot of things. Doesn't mean

95
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: they give it to you. You know, when Van Halen

96
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: goes and says, this is what I want in our

97
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: dressing room, or Mariah Kerry says I want a Koi

98
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: pond in my dressing room, well, okay, ask for it.

99
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: See if you get it. Rogers is asking for it.

100
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: Is it a demand list or a wish list, because

101
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: it does feel like this isn't a wish list, this

102
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: is you want me you got to do this, and

103
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna find out if the Jets are going to

104
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: do it, which they probably will. Now, the tricky part

105
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,679
Speaker 1: for me is OBJ. Because ob J wants twenty million

106
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: dollars a year. Alan Lazard got paid. I think he's

107
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: getting eleven million dollars a year. I don't know what

108
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 1: Randall Cobb or Marcedes Lewis could ask for, but obj's

109
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: a big ticket item that's twenty million dollars, and that's

110
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: where the Jets might have a problem. But for the

111
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: most part, if Aaron Rodgers wants these guys and they

112
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 1: make the team better, then great. Do I think Randall

113
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: Cobb and Mercedes Lewis make them better? No, I don't,

114
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: but I do think Alan Lazard gives them another option there.

115
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: And if you're going to bring in O b J.

116
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: Now all of a sudden, you got everybody's attention. Yeah, seton. Yeah.

117
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: It's like with Aaron Rodgers, what good is having that

118
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: sword if you never swing it? You know what I mean.

119
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: If you've played yourself into a position where you have

120
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: all of this leverage and you can make those kinds

121
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 1: of demands, you might as well do it, right, Although

122
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: it could also appear that they have the Jets in

123
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: a little bit of a headlock, you know what I mean. Oh,

124
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: they definitely do. And that's yeah, because we wondered about

125
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: what was Plan B. Now I guess Plan B will

126
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: be Lamar Jackson. But then there's no guarantee that Baltimore

127
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 1: wouldn't match whatever the Jets would offer. You know, they

128
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,359
Speaker 1: weren't in on the Jimmy g sweepstakes. Derek Carr I

129
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: think was interested, at least from what I'm told, to

130
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 1: go to the Jets, but the Jets were not committed

131
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: to Derek Carr because they were still trying for Aaron Rodgers.

132
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 1: Derek Carr didn't want to wait around, and therefore he

133
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: went to New Orleans. But now you're in this situation

134
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: of drafts coming up. Mike White, who may have been

135
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: the quarterback for you, he just signed with the Dolphins

136
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: as a backup. So now you've got Zach Wilson. Not

137
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,679
Speaker 1: much else there, but you do have a really good team,

138
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 1: the team in waiting, and I do think a playoff

139
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: team this year. But Aaron Rodgers the wait and see

140
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: the wish list. And we'll talk to Diana Russini from

141
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: the mother Ship. She'll join us a little later on.

142
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: She's the one that found out about the wish list.

143
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: The Hall of Famer Mike France Sessa will give us

144
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: his thoughts on the Jets coming up as well. Your

145
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: phone calls are welcome. Seaton poll question today is going

146
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:41,239
Speaker 1: to be what well we got a couple Aaron Rodgers

147
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: poll questions one simple, will he make an announcement today?

148
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 1: Yes or no? I hope he says goodbye to the

149
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: packers and that his appearance on Pat McAfee is packer

150
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: heavy because he should. And you know, here's another thing,

151
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,040
Speaker 1: and Trey Wingo has been reporting on this that the

152
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: deal is done. The hold up is not Aaron Rodgers.

153
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: So that might be compensation that the packers are asking for.

154
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: Now the packers have the Jets, maybe over a barrel.

155
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: Packers are moving on. They want Jordan Love. Now you

156
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: can say to the Jets, you know, we were thinking

157
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: we wanted a first round pick, but we'd like to

158
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: have a second first round pick. And then you're going

159
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: to squeeze the Jets. So the Jets are going to

160
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: come out of this probably not quite sure what happened,

161
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 1: what they gave up sacrificed. But if you get a

162
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: franchise quarterback and they haven't had that in a long

163
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: long time, it'll eventually work itself out that way that

164
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,839
Speaker 1: you might be like, oh, he's a diva, he's got

165
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 1: a wish list. Okay, let's see what he does when

166
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: he gets Once you start winning and playing well, it's

167
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 1: when he doesn't that's when I want to see what

168
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: happens with the Jets. Fans yes seton because they like Russell.

169
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: Wilson clearly had a wish list too, although I don't

170
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: think it involved people, no, but he wanted his own

171
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 1: office there. I think he wanted to be part of

172
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: the front office there and that rubbed people the wrong way.

173
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 1: But there's certain quarterbacks who say, hey, I want that guy,

174
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 1: or how about Lebron. Lebron always wanted James Jones to

175
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 1: be on the roster. I was like, how is James

176
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: Jones in another NBA Finals? But Lebron wanted James Jones

177
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: to be on the roster with it. There's certain players, Oh, hey,

178
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: I want my buddy, my running mate on there. Yeah,

179
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 1: uh Lebron any demands, Yeah I need to have James Jones.

180
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 1: What Yeah, I need to have James Jones. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Mart.

181
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: Their streaked to the finals is just unparallel. How many

182
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: finals did James Jones play in? I'm gonna say seven,

183
00:09:54,200 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 1: but I'll double check. Uh. All right, so there's another

184
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: one for you, and we have to populate this one

185
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: a little bit. But who's the most interesting team in

186
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 1: the NFL today? Could be the Jets. Jets are super

187
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: interesting right now, right, Yes, I think the Raiders are

188
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: fascinating right now. Yeah, but they might be fascinating in

189
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: like a car crash type feel like they It feels

190
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: messy with the Raiders, Like you got Jimmy G, you

191
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 1: lost Darren Lawler, Josh Jacobs's back, got Davante Adams, you

192
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: got a coach who I don't know if he's a

193
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: head coach, and Josh McDaniels. He's having a tough run lately. Yeah,

194
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: he's having a real tough run. Well, they lost so

195
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: many close games, and usually that comes down to the coach,

196
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 1: coach and the quarterback when you lose those close games. Now,

197
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: he brought in Jimmy G and all he does is win.

198
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: But yeah, I'd say the Raiders are interesting. But if

199
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: I'm a Raiders fan, probably not in a good way.

200
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: Who is? Do you think that how much of an

201
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: upgrade is Jimmy Garoppolo over Derek Carr. I don't think

202
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,959
Speaker 1: he's an upgrade. Yeah, I don't know because that that

203
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: could be another poll question. Actually is a massive, moderate

204
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: or minuscule? Yeah, I don't think he's an upgrade. It's

205
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,559
Speaker 1: a lateral, cheap remove it feels like. But they put

206
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 1: a lot of blame on Derek Carr, and I think

207
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: there should have been a lot of blame on that

208
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 1: head coach. Yeah, he gets a lot of blame. But

209
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: also Jimmy Garoppolo doesn't seem to get any credit. He's

210
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 1: played well. Hevery credit because everybody says all he does

211
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: is win. I mean that's the ultimate credit. But he

212
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: just said he's not even he's barely better than Derek Carr. Yes,

213
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: but how many other quarterbacks in history have we said

214
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: all he does is win Tim Tebow? So that's that's

215
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: the compo till he does. They have like remixed songs

216
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: about all he does win Tim Tebow Tebow time. But

217
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: he Jimmy Garoppolo, if you look his career, you know,

218
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: year to year he's performed really well and end he

219
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: was rewarded with that. By the forty nine is trading

220
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: up to get a dude that they never played exactly

221
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 1: exactly and they tried to get rid of him and

222
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,239
Speaker 1: and then couldn't. Nobody wanted him, and then Josh McDaniels

223
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: taken him back, you know for the reunion tour with

224
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:25,719
Speaker 1: their days in New England. Yeah, yes, Marv, what were

225
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: they thinking trading Darren Waller? Like, do you know what

226
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: their plan is? Well, I don't think Darren Waller, No,

227
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't. I mean Darren Waller was

228
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: getting married Josh McDaniels I think spoiled the announcement, and

229
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: then they didn't invite Josh McDaniels to the wedding because

230
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: Darren Waller is married to a w NBA player and

231
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 1: I think she put it out there that he wasn't

232
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 1: invited to the That's a great move for the Giants.

233
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: Waller has shown a lot of promise there. Uh you know,

234
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,079
Speaker 1: now you got another Danny Dimes option there and you

235
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 1: got se Quon Barkley, so things are looking up for

236
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 1: the GMN there. What else seat counter one of those

237
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: other interesting teams the Ravens, who that's an interesting situation.

238
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: I would love love and they'd be my new favorite team.

239
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: If the Falcons signed Lamar Jacksons, yes, I would love that.

240
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 1: I would love that the Wings that Magic City half off. Yes, yeah, exactly,

241
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: Bloop bloop Okay. Lamar Jackson in Atlanta would be great

242
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: land inside. Yes, seeing him on that turf. Yeah, but

243
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,959
Speaker 1: I don't know if anybody's gonna put up that kind

244
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: of money. Do you think that we all like Lamar

245
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: Jackson cohinge to the Falcons so much because we've kind

246
00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: of seen it in that uniform before and with Michael Vick. Yeah,

247
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: it's kind of like we know what that looks like

248
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: and it was awesome. Now. I think they have a

249
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: couple of weapons there. They just got bits as they're

250
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: you know, defensive back. Arthur Smith is an offensive minded guy.

251
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. It just feels like I'd love to

252
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: see Lamar on turf and watch him rush for two

253
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: thousand yards. But you know, the Ravens. The Ravens said

254
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 1: they didn't even give him the exclusive franchise tag. It's

255
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: like they gave him the non and then they're saying

256
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: to yeah, go out see if anybody wants you, go ahead.

257
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: I mean it's that was disrespectful. You don't even give

258
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: him a franchise tag to say you don't want You're

259
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: worth you know, forty million dollars. Nah, not, you're thirty

260
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: one million, non exclusive. Somebody wants you, they can commit

261
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: and get you. Hey, but we love you. They keep saying,

262
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: we love him, well, they love him, but yes, that's

263
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: like your wife giving you a haul pass because she

264
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 1: does not believe that she would go out there and

265
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: do damage. Like no, no, go ahead, no have hall pass. Yeah,

266
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 1: I give you want a week, I give you two weeks,

267
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: go ahead. Okay. I don't know if I saw him

268
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: quite like that that the Ravens are saying, Lamar and

269
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: go ahead, sleep with somebody. But they're kind of yeah,

270
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: they're they're daring other teams like, yeah, go ahead, but

271
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: they love him. But they keep saying, but we love Lamar. Okay.

272
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: You know what Cleveland did. They loved Deshaun Watson and

273
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: gave him a totally guaranteed contract because they were desperate.

274
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: I love that it's already being restructured. Yes, yeah, you

275
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: gonna be restructuring that for the fifteen years they are

276
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 1: they are? Why did they do? Yes, Todd? If the

277
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: falcons swoop in and grab Lamar, they'd be real dirty

278
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: birds for doing that. What do you think of that? One? M?

279
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: What did I tell you before they started? That is

280
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: is lane? Though I thought it was kind of my

281
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: crappy jokes iss Jamal Anderson, But I you know, I

282
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: said that, you know, Paulie not here. I don't want

283
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: you to make up for them trying too hard. Yes,

284
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: you don't need to, Okay, just be you. And I

285
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: would have said that anyway with paul here. He would

286
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: have turned around me a look and then we move on.

287
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: And that's fine too. And people like on radio. You

288
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: don't know this, but when Fritzy says something stupid, which

289
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: happens a lot, Paulie will turn and give him a

290
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: look like that was stupid. There was one show about

291
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: thirty eight percent of the time, not that I was

292
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: keeping track. It was looking back here more than it

293
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: was facing him. Not that you were keeping I did

294
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: like an algorithm. I don't know how I came up

295
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: with it. I did like a phone calls are welcome,

296
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 1: We'll settle on a poll question. I think it's Aaron

297
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: Rodgers related and Lamar Jackson at four o'clock today is

298
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 1: allowed to flirt with other teams and vice versa. We'll

299
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: take a break. We're back after this and the Dan

326
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: tweets from this audience, Seaton, you want to enlighten the

327
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 1: audience on some of these suggestions that we have so far.

328
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,479
Speaker 1: Sometimes Twitter is just great. They are this guy, John

329
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 1: wrote in twenty twenty two, Aaron Rodgers has no weapons.

330
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty three, he wants half the Packers offense to

331
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: come with him. Yeah that's fair, Yeah, that's fair. Okay.

332
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: Then there's another Aaron Rodgers meme right now that says

333
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,479
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is currently the quarterback of the Packers, GM

334
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 1: of the Jets and owner of the Bears. Incredible. If

335
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: he stayed in Green Bay, that would make for a

336
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 1: great T shirt. Oh definitely, yeah, absolutely. Play of the

337
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: Day is coming up. We'll get phone calls and our

338
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: poll question has to do with Aaron Rodgers, and that's uh,

339
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,680
Speaker 1: will he make a decision today? We'll start easy. We'll

340
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 1: go with will Aaron Rodgers make an announcement today? For

341
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: the love of God, please mess or no? Yeah, I

342
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: think he's going to. But I don't know how long

343
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: he's gonna be on Pat McAfee's show. But I'm hoping

344
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: that half of the appearance has to do with the Packers.

345
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: If he is indeed going to the Jets or making

346
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: that announcement, it would be pretty amazing. Though, if this

347
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 1: whole thing was just a big pump fake He's like, yeah,

348
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,199
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not ready yet. Actually I'm still deciding

349
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: in my future. Well, I think there's a possibility of that, Yes, Tod,

350
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,160
Speaker 1: can you overstay? You're waiting for welcome? Like, if you're

351
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: a Jet fan, does it get to a point where

352
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 1: you're like, you know what, forget this guy already. Let's

353
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: figure out who a quarterback is. He's playing games with us.

354
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 1: He may not come here, we need to figure out

355
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: what we're doing waiting a couple of days. You've waited

356
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 1: decadesse quarterbacks. The excitement get a little less the longer

357
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: this takes. It's like, we're excited, we can't wait from

358
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: the company. He keeps dragging it out where it's like, okay,

359
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: it becomes less of a big deal eventually when he

360
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 1: If you said, hey, you're gonna get him in June,

361
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: you gotta wait till June, you still get him. If

362
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 1: I'm a Jets fan, the worst case scenario is we

363
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: don't get him. If we get him, I'll take him

364
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 1: whenever we get him, and that'll probably be sooner than later.

365
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: But you know, the packers may be holding this up

366
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: as well. If the report is true that Rogers isn't

367
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: holding this up, it's the packers. But I would still

368
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: think if I'm Rogers, you got Alan Lazard under contract?

369
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: Are you going to bring in Randall Cobb, Mercedes Lewis

370
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: and then are the big ticket item is O b

371
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 1: J Because that's he wants twenty million dollars and he

372
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 1: wouldn't even be your number one wide receiver. That'd be

373
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson. I saw this with John Morant. The Instagram

374
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 1: live where he showed brandished a gun in a strip

375
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: club in Denver could cost him just under forty million dollars.

376
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: He's in a counseling program in Florida, so there's no

377
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: time frame for him to come back. Although a very

378
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,920
Speaker 1: respected NBA reporter Mark Spears implied that John Morant will

379
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 1: not play for the Grizzlies the rest of this season.

380
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 1: I haven't heard anything to back that up or a

381
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: second source on that, but Mark Spears is well connected.

382
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: In the offseason, John Morant signed a five year max

383
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,880
Speaker 1: rookie extension with Memphis, so that guarantees him one hundred

384
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,199
Speaker 1: ninety four million dollars. If he makes one of the

385
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 1: three All NBA teams this season, his contract would then

386
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:35,640
Speaker 1: be worth two hundred and thirty three million dollars. Keep

387
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 1: in mind, he's averaging twenty seven, six and eight assists

388
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: per game. He would easily make one of the top

389
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 1: three All NBA teams, but with the extended absence, the

390
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: chances of him earning All NBA are starting to fade away. Also,

391
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,720
Speaker 1: you know, he had the Grizzlies with the second best

392
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: record in the Western Conference before he was suspended or

393
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: took his leave of absence there. If he doesn't earn

394
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 1: a selection on any of the All NBA teams, it

395
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 1: wouldn't be the first financial loss caused by this situation.

396
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,640
Speaker 1: At the Strip Club, Power Aid was featuring John Morant

397
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: and a commercial that was pulled. Last week, he signed

398
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 1: a multi year endorsement deal to become the face of

399
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 1: the relaunch of Power Aid. Power Aid was planning on

400
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: spending ten million dollars on commercials on radio and TV,

401
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: but now not doing that. And once again, Mark Spears

402
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: was with Brian Windhorst on his podcast and he implied

403
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: that John Morant will not be coming back to the

404
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 1: Grizzlies this season. Now. I know that we get obsessed

405
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: with the bottom line of money, but the most important

406
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: issue is John Morant has got to get his life

407
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 1: correct at twenty three. And yes, he's going to lose

408
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: this money, be losing a whole lot more than that

409
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: if he doesn't get himself right and whatever that takes,

410
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,360
Speaker 1: however long that takes. Really that should be the focus,

411
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 1: and it won't be the focus. It'll be because he

412
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,400
Speaker 1: did this at the Strip Club. It's going to cost

413
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: him forty million dollars and it should be he did

414
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 1: this at the strip club and maybe down the road

415
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: he'll be thankful that that did happen, that we did

416
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 1: see it and it got him to get help and

417
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 1: help that he needed. But at age twenty three, he could,

418
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 1: you know, have a half a billion dollars if not more,

419
00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,439
Speaker 1: waiting for him when it's all said and done. And

420
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 1: that's the bigger picture that should be is his health,

421
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 1: whatever that is, if there's substance abuse or mental health

422
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 1: or whatever it might be that you know, this is

423
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 1: this is the important time for yeah. See is that

424
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 1: why you think this story I don't know if it

425
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: resonates as the right word, but has become so big

426
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: because of John Morant's potential and like almost from an

427
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,919
Speaker 1: angle if people are just concerned because I mean, it's

428
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: a big story, and really when you I'm not I'm

429
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 1: not minimizing anything, but there's part of my brain that

430
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 1: is like, Okay, so he showed a gun in a video.

431
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: I mean, there's definitely way worse things that have happened

432
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: in the world, true, you know what I mean. And

433
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,679
Speaker 1: he didn't use the gun. Well it it and you

434
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 1: know this is there's a lot of allegedly did something,

435
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 1: but you know it starts to you know there there's

436
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: a lot more, it feels like with jam Morant or

437
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,200
Speaker 1: a lot of smoke. Yes that there is, or there

438
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: could be. You know, this could mushroom. And I think

439
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 1: that's where you know, he needs to understand, which I

440
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: think he does. Now those around him need to understand,

441
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 1: which I think they do now, whether it's his dad,

442
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: the organization, and you've got to make sure that you

443
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 1: have somewhat control over him or at least that he'll

444
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 1: listen to somebody in there, because you surround yourself, Let's

445
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 1: face it, you surround yourself with people who tell you yes.

446
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 1: That's why they're called yes man, and you know they're

447
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,439
Speaker 1: not going to say no. They're gonna be along for

448
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 1: the ride with you. And it's not I'm not going

449
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: to put all this on you know, the guys that

450
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: he runs with. It ultimately comes back to him, and

451
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 1: wear's his moral compass in all of this. But he's

452
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 1: twenty three and as much as he looks like a

453
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 1: grown up and plays, you know, like a grown up

454
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 1: on the basketball floor, that doesn't mean he's a grown up.

455
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: But I think we have this like, Wow, he's got everything,

456
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: does he? Yes? Town, you also have to wonder if

457
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 1: there's other things we don't know about that have gone

458
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 1: unreported or behind closed doors to go from. It's not

459
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: that big a deal just holding up a gun for

460
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 1: a second too. Now you're in a counseling program and

461
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: there's a well respected reporter saying he may be done

462
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 1: for the year. So there's got to be he would

463
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 1: think something beyond a couple of these alleged things to

464
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 1: end up away in MC counseling programming away for the year. Well,

465
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 1: the NBA hasn't even responded with their investigation, and I

466
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 1: don't know, you know, we haven't The words suspend has

467
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: not been used officially. Now it's been labeled that with

468
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 1: you know, different articles, different reporters, But when we ask

469
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: of the NBA, they have not suspended him. Now if

470
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 1: Memphis did, they're you know, doing it in its semantics

471
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 1: he's suspended. We're just start we're just saying he's taking

472
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: a leave of absence. Yeah, Mark, Yeah, I think with

473
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: the gun in the club, I think people want to

474
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 1: be proactive rather than reactive, because what if this happens

475
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: again and he flashes a gun and somebody might take

476
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 1: that the wrong way who also has a gun. And

477
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: you know, you can forget about the money. His life

478
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: was at stakes. So I think it's trying to be proactive.

479
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: And a lot of people are rooting for him too, Like, look,

480
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: is a guy from a small college that went to

481
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: a small market team that made him relevant, and I

482
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: think people are rooting for him for the most part. Yeah,

483
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 1: and I said this from the beginning. I'm not here

484
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 1: to condemn him, but you know, you're just trying to

485
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: look at the situation in totality that you do have

486
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: all this time, You do have of all of these

487
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,879
Speaker 1: things at your fingertips, but it all goes away with

488
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 1: something stupid, and you've been flirting with stupid. Don't flirt anymore,

489
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: and don't try to be something that you're not. Yeah,

490
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: maybe I'm missing the headlines of the quotes, but it

491
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 1: feels like the NBA is awfully quiet. Yes about all this, Yes,

492
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: but they might have said to Memphis, you deal with this,

493
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,719
Speaker 1: you you deal with this. Not Remember when we had

494
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: Gilbert Arenas on, and you know Gilbert said that he

495
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: was told the NBA can't do anything to John Morant

496
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: in this situation and those were his words. And I'm thinking,

497
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,959
Speaker 1: I gotta believe the NBA could say conduct detrimental or

498
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: there would be there'd be something the NBA could do.

499
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: But are they still I guess their investigation is still ongoing. Here.

500
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 1: Just seems odd like, yeah, Adam Silver really hasn't said

501
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 1: anything about it. Feels like, yeah, but John Morant that

502
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: max rookie deal and if you're part of the first, second,

503
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: or third team, then you know his contract goes up

504
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: almost forty billion dollars and that'll be the headline. But

505
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 1: it should be John Morant getting himself correct here. You know,

506
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,640
Speaker 1: the commissioner did talk about and he did this with me.

507
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: This was a while ago. It might have been last

508
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: year when I talked to him, But it had to

509
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: do with how many games should you play? And why

510
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: don't you have a minimum number to be able to qualify?

511
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: And also take away positions on the All NBA teams.

512
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: I mean, Rudy Gobert would make first, second, or third

513
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: team and he's not one of the top fifteen players

514
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 1: in the NBA. And we have position list basketball teams now,

515
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 1: like is Luca a point guard? Yeah? Is Lebron What

516
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 1: do he list Lebron as? Is he a power forward?

517
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 1: Is he a two? Well, there's so much money that's

518
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: attached to this, and I said to the commissioner, you

519
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: shouldn't have that. Give me the five best players, the

520
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,000
Speaker 1: next five, and then the next five. That's how you

521
00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 1: should reward all NBA teams because you can have a

522
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: center who plays, you know, out at the three position.

523
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 1: I mean, it's Joe l Nbada center. Is Carl Anthony

524
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: Town's his center? Yeah? Seen, Well that's another thing that

525
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: Gilbert Arenas had spoken about before where he calls Grant

526
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: Hill the prototype because he was the first dude sort

527
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 1: of like that big to have handles that other people

528
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,239
Speaker 1: couldn't keep up with, you know what I mean, like

529
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan and even him, you know what I mean.

530
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 1: So he always calls Grant Hill the prototype because that's

531
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: when basketball changed. Yeah, I found that really interesting that

532
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: you you know, Grant Hill would have been probably one

533
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 1: of the top fifteen players of all time had he

534
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: stayed health here and you know, went through a lot

535
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: of surgeries there. But what he was at Duke and

536
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 1: when he first came into the league, he was going

537
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 1: to be the next Jordan, and you got the feeling

538
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 1: he could have been the next Jordan. Very charismatic, good looking,

539
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: god I extremely talented. And then he had the injuries.

540
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: But for Gilbert to say to watch Grant Hill cross

541
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 1: people over and at that size, that's where he was like, oh,

542
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 1: the NBA has changed. We were also talking about this recently,

543
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 1: and that's you know, when you chase a ring. And

544
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 1: I go back to Kevin Garnett. When Kevin was in Minnesota,

545
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: he wasn't going to play for a ring. They went

546
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: for went to the Western Conference finals I think once,

547
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: but I had you know, I had great respect for

548
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 1: Kevin Garnett. He didn't say you got to get me

549
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: out of here. He was willing to play for the

550
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: team that drafted him. He didn't like ownership, but he

551
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: was willing to stay. And then he goes to Boston,

552
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 1: he gets traded and he ends up winning a championship,

553
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 1: but he didn't chase a ring. And I think we're

554
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: waiting for Dame Lillard to chase a ring. And Dame

555
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:58,280
Speaker 1: Lillard was on the podcast with JJ Reddick old Man

556
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: in the three podcast, and he talked about how everybody

557
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 1: makes it about rings. I was talking after a game

558
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: like a week ago, and I was just like, there's

559
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 1: asking me about game, but like to win a ring.

560
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: And I'm like, bro, I don't need to prove to

561
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 1: y'all that I want to win a ring. What the

562
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: hell do I play like? I don't need to prove

563
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: that to y'all. But we cannot keep acting like while

564
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 1: I understand we play to win championships. We all want

565
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,959
Speaker 1: to win a championship, we can't keep acting like nothing

566
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: matters like the rest of the stuff, the journey doesn't matter.

567
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: We can't keep doing that. And he's right, he's loyal

568
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: to a franchise and that could be a negative in

569
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: some people's eyes. But when you think about chasing rings,

570
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: there's two people that it applies to. In my opinion,

571
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 1: there's only two, and it's Lebron and KD. Lebron labeled

572
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: as chasing a ring or two in Miami. KD chased

573
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 1: the ring when he went to Golden State. Other than that,

574
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: I know Barkeley tried to chase a ring, Carl Malone

575
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: tried to chase a ring when he went to the Lakers,

576
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:09,640
Speaker 1: Gary Peyton, But modern day, who do we talk about

577
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: and say, oh, you're trying to, you know, chase a ring. Yeah, Mark,

578
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: Why is that a negative connotation to quote unquote ring

579
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: chasing because you only chase two things in the league,

580
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: rings and money. Yeah, so somebody's gonna say, oh, you

581
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 1: went there for the money or you went there for

582
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: the ring, and no matter what a lot of times

583
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: guys are in lose lose situations. Yeah, but we hold

584
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: onto this tradition of you know, Larry Bird didn't go

585
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 1: anyplace else, or Magic didn't go anyplace else and they

586
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 1: stayed with it. You know, John Stockton didn't go So

587
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: it's the old school mentality of you don't chase a ring.

588
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 1: When Barkeley went to Houston with Scottie pipp And it's like,

589
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: what are you doing chasing a ring? Yeah? Mar? And Also,

590
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: I think the worst label in sports, or the worst

591
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 1: terms if pro sports, is the word loyalty. Because look,

592
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: if you don't like a coach, fire him, get rid

593
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: of him. Why do we still have him? But he

594
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: just signed a deal he was quote being loyal, But

595
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: as soon as your favorite player leads for a different team,

596
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: you're not loyal. Like pick one? Which one is it? There? Yes,

597
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 1: sometimes we look at loyalty as a negative, like Dame

598
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: Lillard's being loyal, Well, you got to get out, you know,

599
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 1: he should be playing with the Knicks. Why he's doing

600
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 1: what we want our athletes to do. You drafted me,

601
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 1: you pay me, and then if you stay, then it's

602
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 1: about the money. Oh, if you stay, you get more money.

603
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: Why don't you, you know, take less money and go

604
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: try to win a ring. And you can understand why

605
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 1: these athletes. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

606
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: But I think the reason why we look at Lebron

607
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,000
Speaker 1: and KD and chasing rings is what it means historically,

608
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: because if Lebron wins another one, well now all of

609
00:33:55,280 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 1: a sudden, we're knocking on Jordan's door. Now you're separating yourself.

610
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,800
Speaker 1: Or hey, Magic had five and Kobe had five, and

611
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,239
Speaker 1: now Lebron you know where his places in history? If

612
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 1: KD wins another one, what if Steph Curry wins another

613
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 1: one and Steph's not chasing a ring, going someplace else.

614
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 1: But here's KD and Phoenix. He wanted out of Brooklyn.

615
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: Now he's chasing a ring by going to Phoenix because

616
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 1: they might be the odds on favorites right now in

617
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 1: the West, Lebron going to the Lakers, he won the

618
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: Bubble title, is he going to leave again and chase

619
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 1: a ring again? And you can't rule that out, but

620
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: that's what his legacy. That's all it's left is how

621
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 1: many rings do I for KD he can get thirty

622
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 1: five thousand points, We're going to come back and say

623
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: how many rings did he have? And he's still going

624
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 1: to be labeled a ring chaser Lebron. Lebron would have

625
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: stayed in Cleveland. I think if Chris Bosh was willing

626
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: to leave Toronto and come to Cleveland, Chris is like,

627
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,360
Speaker 1: I'm not even flying over Ohio. I'm going right to Miami.

628
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,399
Speaker 1: And then Lebron goes I can't get anybody to play here,

629
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:11,360
Speaker 1: and then he goes to Miami. Yeah. See. I wonder

630
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 1: if the idea of chasing rings sort of to Dane

631
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 1: Lillard's point, eventually just it's the new normal right where

632
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,799
Speaker 1: that's kind of the way the league operates. People are

633
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 1: just trying to match themselves up with the best teammates

634
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 1: to win rings. I wonder if that the concept or

635
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 1: that being a negative fades with time. Well, I think

636
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 1: Lebron is you know Pinata, then he's always going to

637
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: be a topic and therefore we usually you see people

638
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:42,239
Speaker 1: going at him in a negative way, chasing rings. Kd

639
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 1: the same way, although I don't see Kadi is polarizing.

640
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:51,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I love him. I think he's he's a baller.

641
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,360
Speaker 1: I mean that dude when he's on the floor, he

642
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 1: loves playing basketball and there's not a lot of drama

643
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,239
Speaker 1: when he's on the floor. Other stuff off the floor

644
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: a little bit, but still and did he chase a ring? Yeah?

645
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,720
Speaker 1: Was I disappointed because I wanted to see Oklhoma City

646
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:12,479
Speaker 1: stay competitive and beat Golden State. You had him, That's

647
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: what I wanted. I don't want everybody who's going to

648
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: be on this team and then all of a sudden,

649
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: you got a super team. I like that there's possibilities,

650
00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:24,719
Speaker 1: storylines where somebody comes out of nowhere. I mean, that's

651
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: what's great about sports. You get the opportunity instead of

652
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 1: I don't think we can beat him, I'm going to

653
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,359
Speaker 1: join him. And that was the only part I didn't like.

654
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 1: And he wasn't going to get credit as he probably

655
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: should because he was the best player on the team

656
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: and won the finals. MVP twice. All right, let me

657
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,560
Speaker 1: take a break. Got our Play of the day coming

679
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: brought to you by the great folks at p XG,

680
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,720
Speaker 1: my new golf clubs, and I've been swinging them this morning,

681
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:13,280
Speaker 1: and the Danants are tired of hearing me say, damn,

682
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 1: look at that shot. PXG dot com or call eight

683
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 1: four or four play PXG schedule of fitting and build

684
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 1: in some time because it's very thorough, going to take

685
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: you a couple hours, but they have it down. Swing

686
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: some pxgs and you'll agree nobody makes golf clubs the

687
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,760
Speaker 1: way they do. Period. I am swinging these clubs. Well,

688
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 1: I know I'm hitting the ball. Well, I've been on

689
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 1: the simulator just banging balls. And the Danans don't even

690
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 1: acknowledge me when I say, man like, I'm waiting for

691
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 1: a little acknowledgement. I'm not getting it. I mean, I'm

692
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 1: piping it. I am. By the way, do you see

693
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: where the let's see United States Golf Association and the

694
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:03,000
Speaker 1: Royal and Ancient British Open folks, they are talking about

695
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 1: limiting the distance a golf ball can go. They would

696
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 1: like for it to travel fifteen yards less than it

697
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: is right now. And now this wouldn't affect us. They

698
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 1: would use a different golf ball for the professional players

699
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 1: that they're worried about how far they're hitting it. Yeah, see,

700
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,319
Speaker 1: why are they worried about how far they're hitting it? Well,

701
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,280
Speaker 1: I think there are some golf courses that they don't

702
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: want rendered obsolete. That would be I guess the only

703
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,720
Speaker 1: thing I could think of that you can't add anymore,

704
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 1: like the thirteenth hole at Augusta. I think they just

705
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:45,840
Speaker 1: added maybe twenty to thirty yards on that. But you

706
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: know there's some courses where there's no land left. You

707
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,919
Speaker 1: can't change it, you can't add anything to it. Yeah. See,

708
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: So then doesn't the like topography of the course or

709
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 1: whatever accomplish what they're trying to do for them? If

710
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,040
Speaker 1: the course they're too small, they can't get longer, well,

711
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,040
Speaker 1: then it forces people to hit the ball shorter. Well,

712
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 1: this is what I've always said. When you know they

713
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:12,440
Speaker 1: were trying to lengthen Augusta because a tiger tiger proof it. Well,

714
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: you don't lengthen something where the guy who hits it

715
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 1: farther than everybody else. So why are you lengthening it.

716
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,760
Speaker 1: What you do is you put a premium on putting

717
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: the ball in play in the fairway. And this is

718
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 1: what I think that they should do. Make the fairways

719
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 1: more narrow, have rough that's a little bit higher, and

720
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 1: put a premium on putting the ball in play. But

721
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,680
Speaker 1: you know, Phil Mickelson said this too many years ago,

722
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,760
Speaker 1: and because I said, it looks like you're just hitting

723
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 1: it as hard as you can, he goes, I am,

724
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: but I'd rather have an eight iron in my hand,

725
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 1: even though I might not be on the fairway than

726
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:50,399
Speaker 1: you having a six iron and you're in the fairway. Now,

727
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: that's Phil's logic, and he's always you know, he's a

728
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 1: shotmaker and always you know, trying to get out of

729
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 1: trouble there. But yeah, this is what they're talking about,

730
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 1: that they don't want the ball going more than three

731
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty yards. But I love seeing that, and

732
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 1: I want to play the same golf ball that Rory

733
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 1: plays and hits it that far, the same clubs that

734
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 1: these guys play, and the same course that they play.

735
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,279
Speaker 1: You know, the first time I went to Augusta and

736
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:21,560
Speaker 1: I got to the eighteenth, I went all the way back.

737
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,319
Speaker 1: I wanted to hit where the pros hit from and

738
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: out of that shoot and the trees are there and

739
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,280
Speaker 1: it's narrow, and there's a bunker there on the left,

740
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: and I'm like, yeah, that's what you want to do,

741
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 1: and you want to play you know, the same courses

742
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 1: that they're able to play, or play it from the

743
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 1: you know, the tips if you want to, you go

744
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,000
Speaker 1: to Riviera and you want to play it from the tips,

745
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,880
Speaker 1: just like the pros do, and you get that feeling

746
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,239
Speaker 1: of just how great they are. But I don't want

747
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 1: them limiting the where the golf balls are going. You

748
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: know they're probably going to talk about, you know, club

749
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:58,760
Speaker 1: manufacturers as well, But I love the Here's the quote

750
00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:03,400
Speaker 1: from a titlist rep a solution in search of a problem.

751
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 1: That's a great quote. Yes, like, all right, what's the problem.

752
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, but here's the solution. We're gonna limit

753
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 1: how far a golf ball can go. Are the scores

754
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 1: that much better because of all this distance? You still

755
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 1: have to make shots, bottom line, Right, I don't care

756
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 1: how far you hit it. Can you put can you

757
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:33,399
Speaker 1: chip check in? With the jets coming up? Is this

758
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 1: the day
